1 00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:05,520 Speaker 1: Pressing the newsmakers to get the real story. It's Heather 2 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:09,680 Speaker 1: Duplicy Ellen drive with one New Zealand let's get connected 3 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:10,640 Speaker 1: news talk. 4 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:12,680 Speaker 2: Said, be Hey, good afternoon. 5 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,400 Speaker 3: Coming up today, Shane Jones has some pretty koky ideas 6 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 3: for how to deal with the energy crisis. We're going 7 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,599 Speaker 3: to talk to the actual energy minister Simme and Brown 8 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,959 Speaker 3: after five more resistance to maths. What a surprise. The 9 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 3: Teacher Education Forum is now upset that future teachers will 10 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 3: have to have level two maths and all Birds is 11 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 3: having a tough old time. Will talk to Devin Funds, Greg. 12 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 4: Smith, Heather Dullen Well. 13 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 3: Inevitably, the Assies have now picked up on the slur 14 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 3: from Chris Luxen where he said when talking to Ossies, 15 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 3: it pays to be incredibly simple. And you know, good 16 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 3: thing is they seem to be taking it largely in 17 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,319 Speaker 3: the spirit that it's intended, which is just a bit 18 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 3: of humor. And it also means Luxeon's play has worked, 19 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 3: which is that by having a crack at the Aussies, 20 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 3: what he was doing was distracting us from the actual issue, 21 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 3: which is Paul Goldsmith taking Marty words out of the 22 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 3: Mattaki invitation and as I say, it's largely worked. But look, 23 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 3: let's get to the heart of this actual issue. Right, 24 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 3: This actually was a dumb thing for Paul Goldsmith to do. 25 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 3: I mean, look, I guess why he might have done it. 26 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 3: I get he might want an invitation from him to 27 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 3: be authentic to him. And if he doesn't make a 28 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 3: habit of going around using Mary words in a tokenistic 29 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 3: fashion to show off his inclusivity credentials, then sure he 30 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 3: might want to take Terrell out of the invitation and 31 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,839 Speaker 3: replace it with English. And that's fair enough. But Paul 32 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 3: Goldsmith is not an individual. He's a government minister and 33 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 3: he's going to have to start being a little smarter 34 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 3: and more strategic about this, because this government doesn't need 35 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 3: a petty issue like this on race relations to deal with, 36 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 3: because it's got enough going on as it is. A 37 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 3: lot of what the government is doing on race relations 38 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 3: is worthy and does need to be done. Repealing the 39 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 3: Maori wards, tidying up the Treaty principles, halting the co governance, 40 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 3: putting an end to certain ethnicities getting priority surgery, and 41 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 3: this stuff they can defend really easily on democratic and 42 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 3: equal rights grounds, right, But when Paul Goldsmith does something 43 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 3: like taking more words out of an invitation, Although it 44 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 3: may be true to his way of speaking, what he 45 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 3: does is he makes this democratic and equal rights reset 46 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 3: for some people just look like an anti Mahory thing. 47 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 5: Now. 48 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,239 Speaker 3: To be fair to him, he's not the only minister 49 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 3: who's been caught fighting petty battles over language like this. 50 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 3: He is just the latest minister to be busted doing it. 51 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 3: But it would pay for these guys next time they 52 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 3: want to do something like take Marty words out of 53 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 3: a document, to really think about whether that, if leaked, 54 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 3: is something that they want to add to the government's 55 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 3: race relations agenda, because there is a very fine line 56 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 3: between appearing to be four equal rights and appearing to 57 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 3: be just anti everything, Mary, and frankly, there are much 58 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 3: more important things going on in this country right now, 59 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 3: and energy crisis, a possible recession, a massive problem in health. 60 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 3: Just to give you a few but what are we 61 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 3: talking about? What are we going to remember from this 62 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 3: week Paul Goldsmith's invitation? 63 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 4: Did ever do for see? Ellen? 64 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 5: Well, you're welcome to. 65 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 3: Let me know what you think. Nine two nine two 66 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 3: is the text? Understand a text? Aply listen the Minnesopa 67 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 3: Children has just put aud on a tamadiki on a 68 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 3: performance plan. She's written to the chief executive laying out 69 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 3: five new measures that she expects to be reported on 70 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 3: every single quarter. Karen Shaw, obviously is the Minister for Children. 71 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 3: Hey Karen, Hi, how's it going good? Thank you? 72 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 4: Now. 73 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 3: The first thing that you want to know is what 74 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,839 Speaker 3: percentage of children in care have been checked on by 75 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 3: their social worker at least once in the last two months? 76 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 3: Is this not happening to one hundred percent of them? 77 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 6: What we'd gather from the Independent Children's Monitor reports is 78 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 6: this has not been happening. Unfortunately, those reports only come 79 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 6: out yearly, and we're actually being reactive instead of proactive. 80 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 6: So I'm going to make sure that we get these 81 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 6: quarterly reports so we can see it in real time 82 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 6: and actually make sure we're improving things. 83 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 3: So what percentage of kids are actually getting checked on 84 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 3: every couple of months? 85 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 6: From what I can remember, it was a very low number. Sorry, 86 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 6: I don't have that right in front of me, but 87 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 6: it was an unacceptable number and I brought it up 88 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 6: quite a lot while I was an opposition and it 89 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 6: never improved. So I want to make sure that we're 90 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 6: actually citing these young people and making sure they're safe. 91 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 3: I mean, is this not exactly the kind of thing 92 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 3: that should be done to make sure that kids who 93 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 3: are in care are not being abused and mistreated in 94 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 3: the way that we've just found out through the inquiry. 95 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 6: Absolutely, and that's why I am making sure that this 96 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 6: is one of my number one priorities, citing young people 97 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 6: and making sure that they're safe. 98 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, So what's OT's problem? Do they just not want 99 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 3: to do it? Or are they under resource they don't 100 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 3: think it's important? What's up? 101 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 6: I think it's a bit a bit of each of 102 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 6: what you've spoken about, and that's why I'm making sure 103 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 6: that we're resourcing the front line better so that they 104 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 6: are able to do these basic things that should be 105 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 6: getting done. 106 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 3: Okay, Now, the second thing you want to know is 107 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 3: around reports of concern? Right, you want to know how 108 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 3: many critical reports are handled within twenty four hours? What 109 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 3: do you reckon that number? 110 00:04:58,680 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 7: Is? 111 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 6: There are thousands of reports of concern, but we have 112 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 6: not been meeting the expectation of the time frames. And 113 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 6: this also bleeds into are we actually citing the young. 114 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 8: People with critical reports of concern? 115 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 6: So those two numbers will be very critical to make 116 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 6: sure that we are making sure that these young people 117 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 6: are safe in the homes that we are putting them 118 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 6: in as well. 119 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, now the critical are we talking when we talk 120 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 3: about critical reports of concern? Are we talking about the 121 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 3: kind of report that you did before a child is 122 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 3: bashed to death by its parents? Is that what we're 123 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 3: talking about here? 124 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 9: Yeah? 125 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 6: Critical would be a situation or we're a young person 126 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 6: we know would be an immediate danger. Would that be 127 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 6: through a domestic violence called out from police? It could 128 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 6: be from neighbors who have stated that they're seeing something 129 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 6: really really wrong in that place. That is critical, where 130 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 6: we know a young person is an immediate danger. 131 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 3: And again OT is getting this and not dealing with 132 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 3: the critical things, not not everything, but not with the 133 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 3: critical things within a day. 134 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 6: I don't think we actually have the true data on that. 135 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 6: We have bits and pieces, but not the true data. 136 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 6: And that's why I want to see the true, real 137 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 6: data to make sure that we're actually getting that right. 138 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 3: I see that you've said that there are some charities 139 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 3: who are dealers who are treating OT as a cash cow. 140 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 3: Which charities are you talking about? 141 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 6: If you refer to the press release from Autonotominiki. There 142 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 6: are a couple in there where the bunds delivered, but 143 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 6: there's also some where we're still negotiating around clawbacks and 144 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 6: making sure that we do get that money back. I'm 145 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 6: not going to be naming and shaming different organizations, but 146 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 6: what I am going to be saying is this will 147 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 6: no longer be happening. If you don't provide a service, 148 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 6: you don't get to keep the money you give them 149 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 6: money back. 150 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,359 Speaker 3: Does this press release actually name and shame. 151 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 6: It just responds to some who have been in the 152 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 6: media and gives an explanation of why their funding may 153 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 6: have been been decreased, or just because when you go 154 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 6: out to the media and you talk about something, we 155 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 6: need to make sure that the facts are correct. 156 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 3: Okay, So, Karen, are you telling me that if I 157 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 3: go and look at that press release, it's going to 158 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 3: have some names in there, and those names are in 159 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 3: some cases treating it like a cash cow. 160 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 6: Well not specifically those organizations treating it like a cash cow, 161 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 6: But what I mean is, if you're under delivering and 162 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 6: you're not providing a service. In the past, you have 163 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,239 Speaker 6: not had to give that madeback. We are now making 164 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 6: sure that that money comes back. 165 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,119 Speaker 3: Why don't you say these people, I mean these people, 166 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 3: you are getting absolute grief at the moment from these 167 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 3: charities and they are heaping all kinds of criticism on OT. 168 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 3: Why don't you just name them. 169 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 6: Some of the decisions that have been made for modern automitiki. 170 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 6: There are many, many organizations. I don't specifically know the 171 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 6: names of each individual organization. Those are operational matters.

Quite well, okay, let's just get this right. 201 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 3: So the two canoeists who have apparently embarrassed the whole 202 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 3: nation are going to do their canoe semi final, no, 203 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 3: their kayak semifinal at ten to ten. Then they go 204 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 3: do the canoe final B final, yep B final. No 205 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 3: medals there, no no medals there. That's a twenty past eleven, 206 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 3: and then after that if they've made it into the 207 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 3: kayaking final, which dear God, I hope they have because 208 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 3: that's the whole point of being there. N they're doing 209 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 3: that at ten to twelve. 210 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 10: And that's a ten to twelve and so that's hard 211 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 10: on the heels of Carrington, Vaughan, bre and Hoskin, who 212 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 10: are going to be in the final of the K 213 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 10: four five hundred and four women pressure. 214 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 3: Much strategy question for you? 215 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 10: Well, all of my knowledge of canoe races. 216 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 12: Here we go. 217 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 3: Ok, strategy question. So, if they make it through the 218 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 3: K four semi final, which means that they have to 219 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 3: in the space of like half an hour, do a 220 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 3: C two B final, a canoeing B final and then 221 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 3: a kayaking final, do you just and you can't not 222 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 3: turn up for the canoeing, which you're crappy at. Do 223 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 3: you just start rowing and then tip the boat because 224 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 3: you want to conserve your energy? 225 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 10: And we could say that, I argue, if you want 226 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 10: to do doing this three months, we forgot how to 227 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 10: stay up in these things. We're really hard to stay out. 228 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 10: Dunk yourself and fall on either that will just lie down. 229 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,079 Speaker 3: Yeah, then and then you can conserve you your arms 230 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 3: because you're going to need them in a half an hour. 231 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 10: Well, the way they row, I'm really not sure that 232 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 10: there's any energy expelled anyway, it's so slow. 233 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 3: Is it a second strategy around though? 234 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,079 Speaker 10: That you're going to keep your motor running right, so 235 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 10: now you're getting a bit of a pedal keep you 236 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 10: from seizing. 237 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 3: A second strategy question. If they do not make it 238 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 3: through the semi final for the kayaking, and then they 239 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 3: know they're not going to make the final for the kayaking, 240 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 3: the only thing they've got left to do is the canoeing. 241 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 3: Do they just go hard? 242 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm surprising, but their technique is pants. 243 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 11: So yeah, that's very very difficult. 244 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 3: Okay, very difficult. Maybe they could redeem it. 245 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 10: They might, but I think we're all leaning on what 246 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 10: happens because if they can get to the K four final, 247 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 10: suddenly everything's okay, we saw your master plan. 248 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 11: We're all good with that. 249 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 3: Okay, I like it. I like it. Okay, what do 250 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 3: you think about Razor Squad? 251 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 10: It's good that team to come up against Argentina. We 252 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 10: have very sensible selections in the first couple of tests, 253 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 10: and now we're starting to stretch awey bit and he said, 254 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 10: you know, Rico, not entirely sure. If you really have sentus, 255 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 10: we'll just stick you on the bench and you can 256 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 10: cover wing and center if we need you. And Tom 257 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 10: jump in there and have a look. I like the 258 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 10: cut of your jib a little meata. I thought maybe 259 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 10: Procter might get a role in there. So I think 260 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 10: that's the biggest call. 261 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 11: Nice to see t J. 262 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 10: Bittenara back playing at home again. 263 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 11: I think that's good. 264 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 10: We've got very thin lockstocks, gottam of thin lockstocks. We 265 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 10: get blocks keep dropping out, so we've got I think 266 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 10: I'm wrong. Having eighteen test matches between the two starting 267 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 10: locks are not a great but I think the development 268 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 10: we're seeing here with Scott Robinson and his side and 269 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 10: what he's wanting out of these players, it can only 270 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 10: be good. So I think the Wellington crowd will be 271 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 10: But because they are the best results of recent times, I. 272 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 11: Heard they are still tickets available. Come on, Wellie, what 273 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 11: are you doing. 274 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 3: I mean they've had a whole bunch of people lose 275 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 3: their jobs in Wellington, haven't they. They're the hardest hit 276 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 3: aren't they? As Cozy lives a hitting them hard. 277 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 10: Well, you live down there, you'd know most of them 278 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 10: work for the government. 279 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 3: Don't they.

And 294 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,079 Speaker 3: I'll get to the cookie stuff later, but one of 295 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 3: them is that he wants to regulate the gen Taylors. 296 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 3: These are the companies that generate electricity and then sell electricity. 297 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 3: The gent tailors he reckons not behaving competitively. He's not 298 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 3: happy about that. He wants to force them to behave competitively. 299 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 3: He's also had a crack directly at Meridian for paying 300 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,559 Speaker 3: one hundred million dollars to the NITA who tried to 301 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 3: get a resource consent. He says he doesn't like that 302 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 3: type of behavior. Laura is Meridian speaking. No, what a 303 00:13:56,160 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 3: surprise anyway, So Simeon Brown, who is actually the Minister 304 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:02,839 Speaker 3: for Energy, is going to be with us after five o'clock. 305 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 3: We'll have a chat Tam about that. How amazing have 306 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 3: you seen? Have you seen the effort that that Indian 307 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 3: olympian went to try to get her weight under the 308 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 3: right amount so that she could compete in the wrestling 309 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 3: This woman she was due to compete in the fifty 310 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 3: kg freestyle wrestling final overnight our time, right, so it 311 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 3: was basically going for gold. Unfortunately, so fifty kgs comes 312 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 3: in one hundred grams over. This is the night before 313 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 3: and she's got to compete the next morning. So what 314 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 3: she does overnight is she starts trying to drop weight, right, 315 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 3: stops drinking liquid. I don't know if she eats anything, 316 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 3: probably not. Probably tries to get the pose out, you know, 317 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 3: to like get everything going. Even went so far as 318 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 3: to cut her hair to try to get her weight off. 319 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 3: Still though it didn't work, came in just a few 320 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 3: grams over the weight that was allowed, and she was 321 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 3: disqualified and so she cannot go for gold. And then 322 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 3: as a result of not drinking any water. She's hospitalized 323 00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 3: for severe dehydration and they give her the intravenous flu 324 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 3: fluids and stuff. She's fine now, but obviously gutted because 325 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 3: because it might have been gold. But anyway, that them 326 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 3: are the rules, and unfortunately these kinds of things happen. Heither, 327 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 3: I disagree. Why would you send an invitation with Maori 328 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 3: words when you're sending it to an English speaking Australianhither, 329 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 3: You're wrong. It is basic good manners to communicate in 330 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 3: the language the recipient understands. Heather, I can't say this 331 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 3: very often. Totally disagree with you, Heither, You and other 332 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 3: woke media are the only ones who feel the need 333 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 3: to talk. That's right, me woke, woke from wayback is 334 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 3: what they always say about me. That got their Heather, 335 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 3: she's so woke anyway.

It seems to at least 354 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 3: go some way to solving the problems that councils have 355 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 3: about how they're going to fundle the you know, the 356 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 3: water assets that they need to build in it now 357 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 3: that three Waters has gone and so on. Very excited 358 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 3: to tell you we now have a third bank calling 359 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 3: on the Reserve Bank to cut the rates next week. 360 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 3: It's ASB. The bank's economists say. Activity indicators have pointed 361 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 3: to the growing likelihood of another period of GDP contraction 362 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 3: a much softer outlook than the RB and Z. The 363 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 3: Reserve Bank of New Zealand had been anticipating the risk 364 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 3: of tight monetary policy overshooting has got real. We think 365 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 3: the time for the Reserve Bank to cut is now. 366 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 3: So that's ASB KEW Bank and B and Z I mean, 367 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 3: I'd prefer that. Like Frankly, the power of those three 368 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 3: combined to me is much greater than the power of 369 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 3: Adrian All but you know, he's ultimately in charge and 370 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 3: he does weird things, doesn't he. Twenty three away from five. 371 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 4: It's the world wires on us dogs drive well. 372 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 3: It's been a much carbon night than we expected. In 373 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 3: the UK. There have been no reports of anti immigration 374 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 3: riots or violence, but there were a number of left 375 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 3: wing counterprotests overnight our time, which were mostly peaceful. The 376 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 3: metropol And Police Commissioner says the cops will put an 377 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 3: end to any further unrest. 378 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 7: We've changed our tactics in the last couple of days, 379 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 7: so besides marsling more officers, we're brigading some of them 380 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 7: at key strategic locations across the country so that we 381 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 7: can respond with agility and show a whelming force, so 382 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 7: that the criminals and thigs on the streets don't succeed 383 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 7: Ozzie Prome. 384 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 3: Minister Elbow has responded to our own Prime Minister's joke 385 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 3: about Ossie's in Parliament yesterday. So Chris Luxon, this is 386 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 3: what he said when he was defending Paul Goldsmith's decision 387 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:30,880 Speaker 3: to cut all the Marty words out of an invitation 388 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 3: to an Ossie cabinet minister. 389 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 11: And what I'd say to you. 390 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 2: In my dealings with the Australians, it's always pays to 391 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 2: be incredibly simple and clear and use English. 392 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 3: Here's what Albow thinks of that. 393 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 10: Christopher Luxen's a friend of mine, but I often think 394 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 10: that whilst we both speak English, sometimes we need interpreters 395 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,640 Speaker 10: with the Kiwi accent. From time to time things can 396 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 10: be missed between. 397 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 3: Us and Lord it's rich coming from him with that accent. 398 00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 11: Right. 399 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 3: And finally, a wallaby's been hanging out on a golf 400 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 3: course in England.

The official assumed it was 403 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 3: a prank until a club member came ford and said 404 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,120 Speaker 3: that's seen the wallaby around the course too. The club 405 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 3: has now reported the wallaby to the local Wildlife Trust. 406 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: International correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance, Peace of Mind 407 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: for New Zealand business. 408 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 3: Murray Old Lossie correspondents with us. 409 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 16: Now, hey, mus yet made bonds of beauty, beauty bonzer. 410 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 3: Mate, I mean even there, you must appreciate that Elbow's 411 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 3: accent is atrocious. 412 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 16: Well matey, Yes, I mean he does seem to have 413 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 16: a unique way of mangling Australian English, that's for sure. 414 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 12: But I remember my mum bless her years ago. 415 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 16: I'd come home for a holiday to crash church and said, MARSA, 416 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 16: I don't understand her. 417 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 12: What just sign?

But the governor today had a 432 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 16: speech in northern New South Wales and said, guess what. 433 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 16: The board is focused on getting inflation down because it 434 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,479 Speaker 16: impacts everybody. One third of Australians have a mortgage and 435 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 16: that's tough. She said, agreed, lots and lots of people 436 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 16: are struggling, but she's more concerned about the greater good 437 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 16: and the bank's inflation target range two to three percent. 438 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 16: By Christmas twenty twenty five, they're saying the rate right 439 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 16: now of inflation three point eight percent.

Parole Alan the 447 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 16: former Quadis boss. He's last year. He got a bugger 448 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 16: off paycheck because he was leaving after fifteen years from 449 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:27,679 Speaker 16: the top job. His goodbye check was twenty five million dollars. Well, 450 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 16: the outcry was such the board of the Flying Kangaroo 451 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 16: called in an outsider and said, can you run your 452 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 16: eye over the books please? Well, guess what, Alan Joyce 453 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 16: has been snipped ten million dollars because he wasn't that good. 454 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 16: After all, he has to survive on his final payout 455 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 16: of fifteen million. Have a listen what they found the 456 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 16: Flying Kangaroo under Alan Joyce's leadership. Basically, the relationship between 457 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 16: staff and the public just pancaked. It found between the 458 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 16: Flying Kangaroo and its own staff dreadful because I went 459 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 16: and sacked heaps of people while paying the executive's. 460 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 12: Enormous amounts of money. 461 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 16: So basically, Alan Joyce, look, once upon a time Australians 462 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 16: would queue up to fly quantas. Now you talk to 463 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 16: anybody in the street, the golf club, the pub, they 464 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 16: go out of their way to avoid flying conas because 465 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:17,719 Speaker 16: it's so bloody horrible. 466 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, that's quite interesting insight.

This is the water plan the 492 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 3: government's revealed to replace how three waters is going to work. 493 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 3: And this is in particular with regards to the funding 494 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 3: because the council has been freaking out about this. Okay, 495 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 3: So the council controlled water bodies that are going to 496 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 3: run the water will immediately be able to borrow money 497 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 3: to build water infrastructure through what the government is calling 498 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 3: the Local Government Funding Agency. They've got a year after that, 499 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 3: they've got to figure out how they're going to get 500 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 3: the money they need through the water rates and stuff 501 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 3: like that. Before a year they're going to be sorted 502 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 3: out by this local government funding agency. And this funding 503 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,719 Speaker 3: agency can borrow at rapes rates cheaper than councils, like, 504 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 3: so much cheaper that they're going to be able these 505 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 3: council controlled organizations, the water bodies will be able to 506 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 3: borrow about twice what they could borrow on their own 507 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 3: through this funding body. So that's going to help them 508 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 3: out a lot. It's pretty technical stuff, but we'll ask 509 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 3: Sam and Brown just a little bit about that. I'm 510 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 3: kind of interested if we get time. He's removed the 511 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 3: requirement for the water bodies and the water regulator, the 512 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 3: one who sets the quality of the water and stuff 513 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 3: like that keeps an eye on it. He's removed the 514 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 3: requirement for them to give effected to money will tell why, 515 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 3: which has been a subject of some discussion on the 516 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 3: program recently. I'm not sure that that fixes the problem 517 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 3: for the farmers, who I think still face issues with 518 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 3: what the local ee say and the councils and acting 519 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 3: it and stuff like that. But if we get time, 520 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 3: we'll hit them up about that. Bary Soapers with US 521 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:45,680 Speaker 3: next sixteen Away from. 522 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,919 Speaker 1: Five Politics with Centrics Credit check your customers and get payments. 523 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 3: Certainty Very Soper, Senior Political Correspondence with US. Hey Barry 524 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 3: good afternoon. Ossie seemed to be taking this comment from 525 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,239 Speaker 3: Chris Luxon as it's intended, which is just a bit 526 00:24:58,280 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 3: of banter. 527 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 14: You said in your editorial there are much more important 528 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 14: things to be talked true about, and I think you're 529 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 14: absolutely right that. You know, when I heard the story 530 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 14: initially I thought, oh, somebody in the public service is leaking, 531 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 14: trying to embarrass the minister. If I was sitting in 532 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 14: the minister's chair I was writing a letter to my 533 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 14: counterpartner Australia, I certainly would have written it in English 534 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 14: and not in Maldy. And you know, I think that 535 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 14: was to be expected. So what all the brew hahas about, 536 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 14: I'm not quite sure. But anyway, it's been sort of 537 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 14: built up into this government being out of step with 538 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 14: Maldi in some way. And I thought that quit from 539 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 14: Luxeon in the House yesterday saying it pays to be 540 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,719 Speaker 14: incredibly simple and clear and use English when you're writing 541 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 14: to Australians, and the rejoined it today by Alban Easy 542 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 14: that you know, when you understood, if you understand listen 543 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 14: to New Zealand, you have to understand that you might 544 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 14: need an interpreter sometimes. 545 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 11: I mean it's good nature, but you know. 546 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 14: I think Paul Goldsmith was absolutely in his right to 547 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 14: do that. And there are more important things to be 548 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,360 Speaker 14: talking about, and I noticed the mainstream media hasn't been 549 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 14: talking about it, and that is the speech that was 550 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 14: made in Parliament yesterday by Riewa Packer, the co leader 551 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 14: of the MALDI party. And another thing that's probably more 552 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 14: important to be talking about too, here is Darlene Tana. 553 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 3: She got her first question today. She got her first 554 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 3: question today. 555 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 14: Was boring, boring, and it was quite funny because the 556 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 14: minister standing in for Shane Jones happened to be Winston 557 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 14: Peters Now he was awfully polite to her, gave her 558 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:49,879 Speaker 14: the answer, and I thought he could have made a 559 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:53,640 Speaker 14: snide remark, but he didn't. And Darlen Tarna, she asked 560 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 14: about three questions, no follow up from anybody else in 561 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 14: the house, and she sat. 562 00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 3: Down about oceans. 563 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 14: Yes, that's right, that's about effective as an independent MP 564 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 14: can be. And the Greens, of course, as we know, 565 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 14: they'll be considering it again whether they'll be using the 566 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,159 Speaker 14: Waker legislation. 567 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 11: They'll be considering that on September first, so. 568 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 3: They give Karen Saw a hard time in parliament again 569 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 3: they did. 570 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 14: And look, I really admire carent Sure. I think you 571 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 14: know she was brought up in a very difficult circumstance. 572 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 14: She's had all sorts of racial abuse about her not 573 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 14: being a maldi. I think she has one thing and 574 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 14: she's beaten her gums about it constantly. The only thing 575 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,479 Speaker 14: that she's concerned about is the safety of children, and 576 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 14: I think everyone would empathize with that. And now we 577 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 14: see her on a tamariki that I've got to report 578 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 14: essentially now every quarter to the Minister to make sure 579 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,160 Speaker 14: things that have only been reported on once a year 580 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,640 Speaker 14: don't happen. Sure faced as you said here a barrage 581 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 14: of questions in the house today, but it was unflinching 582 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 14: in a view that aram Arounga Tamariki needs to be 583 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:05,360 Speaker 14: more accountable. 584 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 18: Clearly things need to change. When a child is killed 585 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 18: every five weeks in this country, and so many more 586 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 18: are abused and neglected by those who are meant to 587 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 18: care for them, than a new approach is desperately needed. 588 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,959 Speaker 18: By making Ordering a tomatique report every three months and 589 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 18: making these reports public, it will give Order Timidiki the 590 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 18: focus it needs to ensure that it is delivering on 591 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 18: its core purpose keeping children and young people safe. 592 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 14: And on that note, you know, I was reading a 593 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 14: story in the online today that basically five men and 594 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 14: Nelson are facing illegal weapons charges. In fact, officers in 595 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 14: June they were serving a search warrant on a house. 596 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 14: Three loaded rifles leading up against a wall in a 597 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 14: bedroom next to a child's cot were found and all 598 00:28:56,440 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 14: of the weapons were loaded with round's chambered, and they 599 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 14: didn't have their safety switches on. You imagine that right 600 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 14: next to a cop with little children. 601 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 3: Pretty crazy people do some weird things, an't you Listen, 602 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 3: this water plan that's been announced by Simmy and Brown. 603 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 3: How far does this go to fixing the funding concerns. 604 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 14: Well, it creates big loans, doesn't it for councils. 605 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 11: And what it does is by splitting off the. 606 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 14: Taking apart the three waters issue, and I think it 607 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 14: had to be taken apart, makes some councils responsible for 608 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 14: their own water supplies. What it means is that councils 609 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 14: that have been able to afford in the past to 610 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 14: look after water supply, like Auckland for example, they won't 611 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 14: be impacted terribly on this at all. They'll have to, 612 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 14: no doubt come up with more infrastructure. But what this does, 613 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 14: is you said hither just before I came on that 614 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 14: what it does is allows councils to get money at 615 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 14: a much more cheaper rate. More but in the end, 616 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 14: more and cheaper is the key to this. In the end, 617 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 14: the debt is still there and who ends up paying 618 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 14: the debt? That's unavoidable though precisely well, we have to 619 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 14: spend money on wall totally. 620 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 3: You're right, Barry, Thank you appreciate it's Bary sober seeing 621 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 3: your political correspondent eight away from five. 622 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 1: Putting the tough question to the Newspeakers the Mike Hosking. 623 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 15: Breakfast, Mark Mitchell was accused of barring Ginny Anderson from 624 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 15: visiting the Albany Police station.

The Teacher Education Forum executive chair doctor 673 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 3: Razina Mary said the changes do not make any sense. 674 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 3: What's the problem? I mean, like, listen, Level two is 675 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 3: year is sixth form, isn't it? Level two? You should 676 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 3: be doing maths at sixth form. You should be doing 677 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 3: maths at sixth form. You should also be doing maths 678 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 3: at seventh form. This should just be like, this should 679 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 3: be a core thing that you do. Should between your 680 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 3: maths and your English and your science, whichever of the sciences. 681 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 3: But you should just do these things and then if 682 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 3: you want to go be a teacher, you've got like 683 00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 3: I don't know why we don't just do this thing anyway, 684 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 3: but anyway, we're talking to them and minutes so we'll 685 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 3: ask them. News Talk ZEDB. 686 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 1: The only drive show you can trust to ask the questions, 687 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 1: get the answers. 688 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 4: By the facts and give the analysis. 689 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 1: Heather due to Clan Drive with One New Zealand Let's 690 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: get connected. 691 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 4: And news Talk z B. 692 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 3: Afternoon. 693 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 4: Now. 694 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 3: The government's announced more details on its replacement for three waters, 695 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 3: specifically what they're going to do with the debt funding. 696 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 3: They've announced that water bodies, which will be controlled by councils, 697 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 3: will be able to borrow more money and more cheaply 698 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 3: from the Local Government Funding Agency than they would be 699 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 3: able to do by themselves. Simeon Brown is the Local 700 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 3: Government Minister and with us now, hey. 701 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 20: Simeon, good evening. 702 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 3: How much more cheaply can they get it from this 703 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 3: funding agency? 704 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 20: Well, if you go out and get excepted deep on 705 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 20: the open market, which is what some councils do do, 706 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 20: it'd be about two percent more expensive. So this is 707 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 20: significantly cheaper. This is lgfas triple A rated because of 708 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 20: the support that they get from COSS, guarantees from councils 709 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:12,400 Speaker 20: and the supportive Crown. They already fund councils excess international 710 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 20: markets and this is the best way to be able 711 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 20: to ensure that we can keep water as sets in 712 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 20: local control, with local ownership, they can affordably make those 713 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 20: investments they need whilst also keeping costs down for consumers. 714 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:27,359 Speaker 3: Okay, and so are you just giving them a year's 715 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,280 Speaker 3: worth of access to this money or does it continue 716 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 3: after that? 717 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 13: No? 718 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 20: This is this is this continues after that. This is 719 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:37,320 Speaker 20: this is an endurable solution for water infrastructure in New Zealand. 720 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 20: This is a deal being done to ensure that we 721 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 20: can allow councils to invest in the long term infrastructure 722 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 20: they need in an affordable way. We don't need the 723 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 20: ten mega co governed entities the last government was putting 724 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 20: in place. All we need to do is work with 725 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 20: local government and have a solution which works for them. 726 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 20: And that's what this government's done in nine months. 727 00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 3: So, I mean, why that theory just crashing. 728 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:04,479 Speaker 20: Well, Well, I've just been on the phone to Keywi Rail. 729 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 20: There's been as high wind conditions down here are and 730 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 20: a number of other things which I think they're looking into. 731 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 3: What are the number of other things? 732 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 20: Well, I think the key we rale CEO is here. 733 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 20: We were spoke to him a few minutes ago in 734 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 20: terms of whether or not they were, you know, entering 735 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 20: the particular course correctly. Ultimately they'll be looking into that 736 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 20: and have more to say about that shortly. But there 737 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 20: are high wind conditions here and Wellington right now. 738 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 3: But that's normal, saman, That's not really a surprise, is okay? 739 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,719 Speaker 3: So who puts the little course. 740 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 20: In well I think those are the things that they're 741 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,359 Speaker 20: looking into to ensure that the correct But. 742 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 3: Is it the dudes on board are the guys on 743 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 3: the bridge? 744 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,760 Speaker 20: I mean, we've we've been making out point very clearly 745 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 20: around the operations of that organization that they need to 746 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 20: be lifting the game. And that's why we're refreshing the 747 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 20: board and we're going to be and we're setting very 748 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 20: clear expectations doing it. 749 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 3: But they keep on crushing the boat in the meantime, 750 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:06,799 Speaker 3: don't they? 751 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 20: Well, these things these exactly and this work needs to 752 00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 20: be dune to ensure that. 753 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 3: Let me just get this clear, Saman, Are you telling 754 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,280 Speaker 3: me that while they're trying to birth in Wellington's somebody 755 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,919 Speaker 3: there is the possibility and we are investigating that somebody 756 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 3: has put the wrong coordinates in ok. 757 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,439 Speaker 20: I don't have all the answers. What I'm telling you 758 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 20: is we've been given a briefing around what's taken place. 759 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 20: It's being looked into. But the reality here is that 760 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 20: we need to ensure that that process goes is underway. 761 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 20: I want to make it very clear to the public. 762 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 20: We have been unimpressed with the way key Rail has 763 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 20: been managing its assets and operations. 764 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 3: But this is what asset management problem? Is it me? 765 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 3: I mean, this is just somebody being done. 766 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 20: Well, we don't know all the answers just yet. 767 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,319 Speaker 3: Yes, well, possibly this is possibly being done. How long 768 00:36:58,400 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 3: is this thing going to be out of commission for? 769 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 20: I think a couple of days is what I've been advised. 770 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:03,960 Speaker 3: Man alive, Are you just putting your hair out at 771 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 3: these people? 772 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:06,720 Speaker 13: Well? 773 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:10,359 Speaker 3: Yes, okay, Now are you on board? This is really 774 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 3: the energy crisis is actually what I want to talk 775 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:13,800 Speaker 3: to you about. Are you on board with Shane Jones's 776 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,360 Speaker 3: idea of forcing gent tailors to charge less for power? 777 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 20: Well, the reality is we have an energy shortage. That 778 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 20: is the key issue here at the moment, and that 779 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 20: is because of the last government's policies where they've put 780 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 20: the ban on or and gas in place. They had 781 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 20: this ridiculous twenty thirty target of one hundred percent renewal energy. 782 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 20: They shelled the market by saying they're going to board 783 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 20: a lake at the bottom of the South Island and the 784 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 20: Mountains called Lake Conzo, costing sixteen billion dollars. We have 785 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 20: an energy shortage crisis. That's the issue here. I do 786 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 20: have an update in terms of a number of key 787 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 20: things that are being done. Firstly, Transpower has just announced 788 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 20: that they will be starting consultation on changes to bring 789 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 20: forward hydrogenerators' ability to access contingent storage. So that has 790 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 20: been forward. That is really important change. It's just been 791 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 20: announced by Transpower in terms of being for that additional 792 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,840 Speaker 20: storage in those lakes and making that available based on 793 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 20: the risk curves that we're seeing. The Ultracity Power Ultricty 794 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 20: Authority also using their powers to commence an investigation of 795 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 20: the Section sixteen of the Ultricity Industry Act into spot pricing, 796 00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 20: including whether generators are profiting through this time. I think 797 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 20: it's really important to make it clear that we need 798 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 20: to have full assurances we're not seeing price garging during 799 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 20: this shortage, and I've made my expectations very clear to 800 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,800 Speaker 20: the EA on that, and we are getting advice on 801 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 20: the powers around what needs to be done. But I 802 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 20: think the key message is that we have a shortage 803 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 20: of energy and that is what is driving the situation. 804 00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,720 Speaker 20: We do need assurances that there's no that price gaging 805 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 20: is not happening. We've got that work underway, but we 806 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 20: have an energy shortage as a country and that is 807 00:38:58,640 --> 00:38:59,840 Speaker 20: the most critical issue we need to. 808 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 3: Res Okay, I'm glad you're saying that, because I feel 809 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 3: like Shane Jones is barking up the wrong tree with 810 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 3: what he's talking about. I'm gonna get to that later. 811 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 3: But the energy shortage that we've got is primarily caused 812 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,719 Speaker 3: by a gas shortage. So what are you doing about it? 813 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 20: Well, that's why we've announced yesterday that the government is 814 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:21,799 Speaker 20: looking at importation of liquid natural gas. 815 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 3: Where would you store it? 816 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 20: Well, that is not required to be stored. If this 817 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 20: is something which can be imported on ships and pumped 818 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:34,359 Speaker 20: into the existing pipelines. The advice we've received is that 819 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,280 Speaker 20: this is something that could be set up in a 820 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:40,880 Speaker 20: not a short period of times a year away the 821 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 20: time it would take some time, So we're getting further 822 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 20: advice around the speed and what was required in order 823 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 20: to do this. We're facing a dry year at the moment. 824 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 20: There's been low snowfall on the southern Alps, which means 825 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 20: there's low storage down there. We're seeing low wind. We've 826 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 20: obviously that the gas situation is worsened this year quite quickly, 827 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 20: and so we are putting this option on the table 828 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 20: because it's very clear that New Zealanders cannot afford to 829 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:10,280 Speaker 20: see the shortage continuing. 830 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 3: Still, for a gas producing nation to be important gas 831 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 3: does sound a little kooky. So what we actually need 832 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 3: to do is get the existing people in this country, 833 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 3: the existing investors, to be drilling and looking for more gas. 834 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 3: Are you making any headway there? 835 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 20: Well, that's where we're repealing the oil and gear, but. 836 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 3: That's still not wanting to do it because labor. If 837 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 3: labour gets in in sixty years or nine years or something, 838 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:32,360 Speaker 3: you're just going to do crazy stuff. 839 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,720 Speaker 20: That's one of our biggest issues we face the country 840 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,800 Speaker 20: is around sovereign risk, Yes, and all of these questions, 841 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 20: and that is because of that. This is the reckless 842 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:41,240 Speaker 20: decisions made by the last Are. 843 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 3: You making any headway convincing them? To put money in 844 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 3: or are you coming up with any ideas to be 845 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,319 Speaker 3: able to kind of hold off Labour's crazy. 846 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:49,720 Speaker 20: There is work underway in that space and I'm working 847 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,360 Speaker 20: very closely with Honorable Shane Jones on that. 848 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 3: And when are we going to see it? 849 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:58,719 Speaker 20: Well, you're seeing we've made commitments around that legislation coming 850 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 20: into Parliament the year. Okays, that work is underway, but 851 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 20: I would just point I would just make the point 852 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,840 Speaker 20: and remind your listeners that the sovereign risk issue that 853 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,360 Speaker 20: has been created by the previous government is a very 854 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:14,719 Speaker 20: serious issue and it has been reckless and it is 855 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 20: It is one of the things which worries me the 856 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:21,239 Speaker 20: most about the future of our energy security as a nation. Yeah, fair, 857 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,879 Speaker 20: we need energy as a country and what they did 858 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 20: has it made fixing these problems a lot harder than 859 00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 20: they should be. 860 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 3: So me and thank you, mate, appreciate it. Sim And Brown, 861 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,399 Speaker 3: local Government Minister, Minister for Energy, Minister for Transport. By 862 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,880 Speaker 3: the way, I spoke to somebody last night who's involved 863 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 3: in the energy industry about labor and I said, surely 864 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 3: labor has learned its lesson and it's going to ditch 865 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 3: this ridiculous one hundred percent renewables policy and the oil 866 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 3: and gas ban surely And they were like, no, we 867 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 3: just caught up with Megan Woods this month or recent 868 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 3: in the last month, and no, no, she's they're going 869 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 3: to re announce that as a policy. How crazy is that? 870 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:02,600 Speaker 3: Sixteen past five's talk about something that affects us all cancer. Now, 871 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,800 Speaker 3: that is a word that changes everything. A It affects 872 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 3: one in three New Zealanders in their lifetime. That could 873 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 3: be our friends, our family, our neighbors. But we are 874 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 3: not facing the salon. For thirty four years, A and 875 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:15,359 Speaker 3: Z has been supporting the Cancer Society to help our 876 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 3: communities through the thick and thin of cancer. And this 877 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:21,239 Speaker 3: Daffodil Day, August thirty, we've got a chance to stand 878 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,759 Speaker 3: united and make a real difference too. Every daffodil represents 879 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 3: a story of hope, struggle and support, and it's about 880 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 3: coming together when times are tough, just like kiwis always do. 881 00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:33,239 Speaker 3: And your donation, big or small, can make a real 882 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,520 Speaker 3: difference to someone's journey. It funds vital research and helps 883 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,839 Speaker 3: the Cancer Society provide support services, and it brings hope 884 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 3: to those who need it most. So let's make this 885 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,680 Speaker 3: make every daffodil count with A and Z the Staffodil 886 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 3: day and show what New Zealanders are made of. So 887 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,560 Speaker 3: text donate to two four four two to get the 888 00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 3: link to make a donation. 889 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:53,320 Speaker 4: Heather do for Cela. 890 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 3: Heather. There is no wind at Wellington at present. It 891 00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:58,720 Speaker 3: hasn't been all day, Heather. Simeon is telling bs current 892 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,439 Speaker 3: wind in Wally is eight kur get a grip. Hither 893 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 3: Kiwi Rails telling Porky's gentle breeze and Wellington Hither I'm 894 00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,120 Speaker 3: driving around Evans Bay and Wellington. The water could not 895 00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:09,840 Speaker 3: be more calm. There's no like multiple texts saying there's 896 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 3: no wind. So given Kiwi Rails performance in this area, 897 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:17,319 Speaker 3: was it the wind or was it really somebody putting 898 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,840 Speaker 3: the wrong coordinates into the computer? Hmmm, I wonder. Twenty 899 00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:24,360 Speaker 3: past five Now there's more resistance to maths, this time 900 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,319 Speaker 3: to the Teaching Council's plan, and the plan is to 901 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,320 Speaker 3: require new teachers to basically swat up on their maths, 902 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 3: have fourteen maths credits at NCAA Level two before they 903 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,280 Speaker 3: become a teacher. The Teacher Education Forum has some problems 904 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 3: with that. There Chief executive is doctor Rosina Mary and 905 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:42,919 Speaker 3: with us. Now, hey, Rozina, what's the problem with new 906 00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:46,279 Speaker 3: teachers doing level two maths before they become teachers. 907 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 21: Well, it's quite a bigger complex picture than an issue 908 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 21: around doing level two. I mean, this is a very 909 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:58,360 Speaker 21: significant change that will take some time to tick in. 910 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 21: It's then currently the universitarily enter requirement. Yeah, and it 911 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:12,760 Speaker 21: does mean for providers and for people who are thinking 912 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 21: about becoming teachers, it's a significant shift. There is an 913 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 21: assumption that school leaders will already be thinking that they 914 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 21: want to become teachers and be really clear on the 915 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:28,360 Speaker 21: level and the amount of credits they would need to 916 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 21: then be able to enter the profession, which clearly isn't correct, 917 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 21: and many many people. 918 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,840 Speaker 3: Come the problem. I mean, I don't want somebody teaching 919 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 3: the kids who doesn't understand maths at that level, so good. 920 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 3: We should only have people who understand maths at that 921 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:43,880 Speaker 3: level and if they've done it, they can be teachers. 922 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 3: And if they haven't, bugger off. 923 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,919 Speaker 21: That's a much much bigger problem than that. And it's 924 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 21: a complex program process you have to think about. Teaching 925 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 21: is complex, it's messy, and we are not against working 926 00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 21: with the teaching counsel to increase the level of entry requirements. 927 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 21: What we want is some time, a pause, some good evidence, 928 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 21: some consultation, to be able to work with our stakeholders 929 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 21: every day. 930 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 3: Every year that you guys put this off is another 931 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:17,320 Speaker 3: year of kids not learning maths properly. 932 00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:22,959 Speaker 21: Well, that's actually not what some of our stakeholders would say, 933 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 21: and that learning maths is a much bigger problem than that. 934 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:29,440 Speaker 21: And we're not suggesting we put it off. We're suggesting 935 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,440 Speaker 21: slowing it down a little bit. The pace of change 936 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:36,320 Speaker 21: for teachers and for the sector is huge. They're already 937 00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 21: coping with new curriculum now our curriculum that's going to 938 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:44,560 Speaker 21: be fast forwarded with structured literacy and numeracy. So we 939 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 21: need some really time to work through that and make 940 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 21: sure there are resources in place, good PD for teachers, 941 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:55,440 Speaker 21: a whole lot of other things to actually make this successful. 942 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 3: Look, I have some sympathy for teachers. I realize it's 943 00:45:57,560 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 3: a lot of change fast, Rizina. Thank you, doctor is 944 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:02,960 Speaker 3: in a married teacher Education Forum Chief Executive five twenty two. 945 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 1: The man you trust to get the answers you need. 946 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 1: Heather Dup to c allan drive with one New Zealand. 947 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,720 Speaker 1: Let's get connected and news talk as. 948 00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 3: They'd be teaching is complex, Well, host job is not complex. 949 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 3: Think teaching is complex. Try being an engineer. They need maths. 950 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 3: You've got to teach them the maths. So how about 951 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 3: we get on with that anyway, going for hours about us? 952 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 3: Can we five twenty five? 953 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:25,920 Speaker 4: Now? 954 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 3: I was really really glad to hear Simeon Brown just 955 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:31,440 Speaker 3: before actually articulating the problem, the real problem in the 956 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 3: energy sector with this crisis at the moment, because Shane 957 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:36,840 Speaker 3: Jones is giving me a fright. Because when Shane Jones 958 00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 3: was on this program on Tuesday and said that his 959 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 3: solution to the current energy crisis was to force the 960 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 3: power retailers to offer sweetheart deals to the mills in 961 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 3: regional New Zealand who are in trouble like they do 962 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 3: to t Y, I just assumed he was spitballing. He 963 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:52,680 Speaker 3: was just making things up on the fly, just doing 964 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:56,560 Speaker 3: some blue sky thinking, but because it was crazy. But 965 00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 3: it turns out I was wrong. He's actually repeated it 966 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 3: again this morning. I mean, he actually thinks that this 967 00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 3: is a solution. It is not a solution. I'm sure 968 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 3: it would help the mills. 969 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:05,120 Speaker 12: Out. 970 00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:08,399 Speaker 3: Of course, subsidy always helps, doesn't it. But someone asks, 971 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,000 Speaker 3: if there's a subsidy, someone's going to have to pay 972 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 3: for it, And the people who would be paying for 973 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 3: that is you and I the households, because FYI, in 974 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 3: case you didn't know, we are paying so that Tay 975 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 3: has got a subsidy. At the last estimation, you your household 976 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:29,040 Speaker 3: is paying an extra two hundred dollars a year in 977 00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 3: your power bill to make sure that Ty gets a 978 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:34,240 Speaker 3: sweetheart deal with the power two hundred bucks just for Tey. 979 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,319 Speaker 3: You want to roll that out to everybody, No, absolutely not. 980 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:38,839 Speaker 3: We can't afford to subsidize these guys up and down 981 00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:40,719 Speaker 3: the country because if you think power prices are high 982 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:43,920 Speaker 3: right now, they are about to be reset for us 983 00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,200 Speaker 3: in April next year, it's going to be a lot higher. 984 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 3: Never mind us helping the mills out as well. So 985 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 3: we better ditch that idea fast. I mean, I think 986 00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 3: what he's trying to do here is that he's trying 987 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,759 Speaker 3: to kind of find a bad guy and pin it 988 00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:58,920 Speaker 3: on the gent tailors. Make them the bad guy. We 989 00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 3: can all hate them, so that you know the current 990 00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 3: government's not the bad guy. But we all know the 991 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 3: current government's not the bad guy. We all know who 992 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:07,680 Speaker 3: the bad guy is. Labor is the bad guy for 993 00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:10,279 Speaker 3: killing the gas industry, because that is our real problem here. 994 00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:14,080 Speaker 3: We do not have enough gas. Shane's plan, like Simeon's plan, 995 00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 3: has got to be how to get more gas into 996 00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:18,800 Speaker 3: this country. Then maybe how we deal with some generation, 997 00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 3: some extra generation, and then maybe somewhere down the line, 998 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:23,719 Speaker 3: how to get the gentailers to price more fairly, but 999 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:27,719 Speaker 3: never never to offer sweetheart deals to mills. 1000 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:30,840 Speaker 4: Here the duplessy Ellen, do you think. 1001 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,759 Speaker 3: That the faery drivers are just gonna continue smashing the 1002 00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:36,319 Speaker 3: fairies until they get new ones? Do you think that's 1003 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 3: what's going on here? Are they like really grumpy at 1004 00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:42,000 Speaker 3: Nicola because Nikola canceled the new fairies and so they're 1005 00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:44,200 Speaker 3: trying to wreck these like they're trying to find ways 1006 00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 3: to wreck these ones really obviously, so that we hurry 1007 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 3: up and get the new ones. I just feel like 1008 00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:51,400 Speaker 3: we got a factor this in because otherwise it's incompetence 1009 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 3: and I'm struggling with that. Listen, Wellington City Council, speaking 1010 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 3: of incompetence, having another fight, aren't they in public? So 1011 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:00,800 Speaker 3: we're gonna and they walked down of the council meeting. 1012 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:02,360 Speaker 3: Will talk to them next news talk. 1013 00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 1: On your smart speaker, on the iHeart app and in 1014 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:08,440 Speaker 1: your car on. 1015 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 4: Your drive home. 1016 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,480 Speaker 1: Hither dup to see allan drive with one New Zealand 1017 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:14,600 Speaker 1: let's get connected and news talk z. 1018 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,760 Speaker 4: Be take. 1019 00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 3: Together as the next map. Teacher, I would like to 1020 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:28,759 Speaker 3: point out that the teacher unions are only interested in 1021 00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 3: protecting their members, not an actual student welfare Lucas. I 1022 00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:33,439 Speaker 3: would take it even further. I'd say they're not even 1023 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 3: necessarily interested in protecting their members. They're just interested in 1024 00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:40,719 Speaker 3: protecting themselves. There's a little distinction there that's probably not 1025 00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 3: worth discussing now, but yeah, I take your point. I'm 1026 00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:45,319 Speaker 3: largely on board with you. Listen, all Birds is having 1027 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:47,759 Speaker 3: a really tough time. They are at risk actually of 1028 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:50,840 Speaker 3: being delisted from the Nasdaq because if you do not 1029 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,560 Speaker 3: get if you if you're trading under a dollar, which 1030 00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 3: they are at the moment, I think today they were 1031 00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:57,720 Speaker 3: sitting at sixty one cents, you get a little warning. 1032 00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:00,120 Speaker 3: They got a little warning, and then that's whole that 1033 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:01,600 Speaker 3: they have to be able to trade. They have to 1034 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:04,200 Speaker 3: trade above a dollar for ten days consecutively by the 1035 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 3: before September thirty, and it's not looking good and they've 1036 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:09,920 Speaker 3: got another quarterly loss and stuff. I'll run you through 1037 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:11,799 Speaker 3: the details later on. We'll talk to Greg Smith after 1038 00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,799 Speaker 3: six o'clock. Hudd All standing by, including talking about the 1039 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,560 Speaker 3: maths in just to tick right now twenty three away from. 1040 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:19,920 Speaker 4: Six forgever do for Sellen Now. 1041 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:22,680 Speaker 3: Three Wellington City councilors have walked out of a council 1042 00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:26,440 Speaker 3: vote on those controversial raised pedestrian crossings. They were supposed 1043 00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:28,800 Speaker 3: to decide whether to reduce the number of raised crossings 1044 00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:30,840 Speaker 3: on Thorndon Key from five to two, but some of 1045 00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:34,200 Speaker 3: the councilors didn't like it, including Ben McNulty who walked out. 1046 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:38,400 Speaker 13: I just feel fundamentally uncomfortable about playing role of traffic engineer, 1047 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 13: so I'm going to leave the room. 1048 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 3: And Diane Calvert was another one of the three who 1049 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:44,719 Speaker 3: walked out, is with us, Now, Hey Diane, Diane, huh 1050 00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:46,480 Speaker 3: hi Heather, why do you walk out? 1051 00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:50,879 Speaker 21: Well, we've already tried to move an amendment saying look, 1052 00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:53,640 Speaker 21: we don't have enough information to make a decision. As 1053 00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:56,799 Speaker 21: Band pointed out, we are not traffic engineers. And there 1054 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,200 Speaker 21: was seemed to be a bit of a beg youuty 1055 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:03,759 Speaker 21: ambiguity sorry from NZTA. So we said, look, we don't 1056 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:06,799 Speaker 21: have enough information to make a decision, and we wanted to, 1057 00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:08,640 Speaker 21: you know, sort of wait a couple of weeks ntil 1058 00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 21: we could get that information. That was rejected and the 1059 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:15,640 Speaker 21: chairperson had to have a casting vote because we were 1060 00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:20,279 Speaker 21: fifty to fifty and so basically that was rejected. That 1061 00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:23,240 Speaker 21: was voted down. So then we came to the main vote, 1062 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,279 Speaker 21: which is basically just going to go ahead. And you know, 1063 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:29,080 Speaker 21: at the end of the day, we had these recommendations 1064 00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:31,920 Speaker 21: put in front of us and we just didn't have 1065 00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:34,520 Speaker 21: the information. And on our council you've either got to 1066 00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 21: vote yes, no or walk out. 1067 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:40,319 Speaker 3: The room, Diane, Is the answer not obvious that you 1068 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:43,040 Speaker 3: have to vote down? Like the fewer of these raised 1069 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:45,600 Speaker 3: crossings you have, the better, because just the other day 1070 00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:48,359 Speaker 3: you had emergency services unable to get to somebody having 1071 00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 3: a heart attack fast enough because they had too many 1072 00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 3: of these things. 1073 00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,239 Speaker 21: Yeah, absolutely, when we don't need them, we don't need them. 1074 00:51:54,440 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 21: But the council's proposal was, well, since NZTA on Sunday them, 1075 00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:02,960 Speaker 21: we can at least do half of them. And that's 1076 00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:04,840 Speaker 21: it and it's wrong based. 1077 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,320 Speaker 3: Are you like zero raised crossings? 1078 00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 21: Yeah, I said that none of them have been proven 1079 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:13,799 Speaker 21: to be you know, and if m z t A 1080 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,200 Speaker 21: aren't finding any of them, I mean, that's got to 1081 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:16,880 Speaker 21: tell you something. 1082 00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 3: What's the outcome? What happened today? What was the vote then? 1083 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 21: So basically it was it was it was all. It 1084 00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:25,879 Speaker 21: was all pretty much predetermined because once they voted down 1085 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:29,640 Speaker 21: our amendments, which was basically go back, give some information 1086 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:33,880 Speaker 21: for men's at a talk to the local businesses about, 1087 00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:38,239 Speaker 21: you know, about what they actually wanted because they're seeing 1088 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 21: that road every day. But no, that was rejected. But 1089 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:43,439 Speaker 21: it was only it was bloody lost by the chair 1090 00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:47,440 Speaker 21: having to do a casting vote. So the chair basically 1091 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:50,240 Speaker 21: got two votes and everyone else one, so we lost 1092 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:53,359 Speaker 21: that one. So it was basically going to go before 1093 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,040 Speaker 21: you know, the final vote was basically it was it 1094 00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:59,040 Speaker 21: was a done deal. And if we stayed in the room, Yes, 1095 00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:02,239 Speaker 21: the chair what if I to use her casting voted game, 1096 00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:05,160 Speaker 21: But a good decision for something like this, it's not 1097 00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 21: fifty fifty, as I said afterwards, we should get consensus 1098 00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:10,840 Speaker 21: on something or at least seventy five percent. 1099 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:13,759 Speaker 3: I just need you. I just need you to do 1100 00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:15,760 Speaker 3: a little bit of a little bit of like inside 1101 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 3: work for me. There's some controversy about whether it's windy 1102 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:19,680 Speaker 3: and Wellington today, is it? 1103 00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:24,759 Speaker 21: No, it's not. In fact, it's quite still. It's a 1104 00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:26,640 Speaker 21: bit great, but no, it's very still. 1105 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:29,359 Speaker 3: Okay, Diane, thank you very much. So you go there, 1106 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:33,800 Speaker 3: there you go still in Wellington, Diane Calvert, Wellington City councilor. 1107 00:53:34,080 --> 00:53:38,399 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty Unparalleled reach 1108 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 1: and results. 1109 00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:40,880 Speaker 3: On the Huddle with Me this evening, Allie Jones of 1110 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,440 Speaker 3: Red pr and Matt Heath, Hodaki's breakfast host, Hello, are 1111 00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:46,920 Speaker 3: you too good an day?

What's going on that? 1114 00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 11: I don't know? 1115 00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:57,400 Speaker 2: I heard you saying before that you think that they're 1116 00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:59,680 Speaker 2: just ramming it into things to try and make their 1117 00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:01,800 Speaker 2: point that they need to replace you on You probably 1118 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,160 Speaker 2: need a bit more evidence than just a speculation. And that, 1119 00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:06,520 Speaker 2: I mean, how does your career go once you've rammed 1120 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:07,319 Speaker 2: a fairy at all? 1121 00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:11,239 Speaker 3: Theory is as good my explanation is as good as 1122 00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:14,399 Speaker 3: at Wellington and Windy.

I mean, 1126 00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:19,759 Speaker 22: if you've got a crappy car, if you want to 1127 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:21,640 Speaker 22: get rid of it, just dig it a few times 1128 00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:22,239 Speaker 22: and then you know. 1129 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:23,879 Speaker 23: The rest is straightforward. 1130 00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:26,319 Speaker 3: Insurance job is that when you think it's going on, 1131 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:28,160 Speaker 3: they could well be. 1132 00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:29,920 Speaker 2: That takes a bit of guards to ram a theory 1133 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:32,919 Speaker 2: over your ideological beliefs into it. If that's the case, 1134 00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:35,360 Speaker 2: then I've got a slight amount of admiration for the Kepnet. 1135 00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:38,120 Speaker 3: Just ye the balls that's going on there? Hey, Allie, 1136 00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 3: I would like my teachers. I'd like the teachers in 1137 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:43,799 Speaker 3: this country to have done Level two maths. What about you. 1138 00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 22: I'd like the teachers in this country to have done 1139 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:49,680 Speaker 22: Level two English. I'd like the teachers in this country 1140 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:51,840 Speaker 22: to do Level two on a number of things so 1141 00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:55,200 Speaker 22: that they were proficient in them. I'm actually in agreement 1142 00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:58,440 Speaker 22: with the Teaching Council here. I think that if you 1143 00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:03,520 Speaker 22: force a level to NCAA Level two maths pass if 1144 00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:04,719 Speaker 22: you like, then you. 1145 00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:06,880 Speaker 23: Need to do the same in the other areas. As well. 1146 00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:09,280 Speaker 22: I want my kids to be able to do maths, 1147 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:11,000 Speaker 22: but I also want them to be able to communicate 1148 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:12,920 Speaker 22: properly and understand the English language. 1149 00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:16,920 Speaker 3: Okay, So if we take take it to this logical conclusion, 1150 00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:20,000 Speaker 3: do you want to have level two for everything or 1151 00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:21,279 Speaker 3: do you just or do you not? 1152 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:22,279 Speaker 12: Yeah? 1153 00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:23,920 Speaker 23: Well that's high. I did think about that. 1154 00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:26,400 Speaker 22: And look, I don't know what a reasonable level of 1155 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:29,200 Speaker 22: teacher ability is to teach at a primary school level. 1156 00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:31,920 Speaker 23: I'm not a primary school teacher. It's been some years since. 1157 00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:35,680 Speaker 22: I was there myself, amazingly, So look, I would like 1158 00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:37,279 Speaker 22: to hear from someone as to what they think the 1159 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:39,719 Speaker 22: reasonable level, you know, across those subjects is. 1160 00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:41,680 Speaker 23: I can't answer that, Heather, Yeah, what. 1161 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:42,120 Speaker 3: Do you reckon that? 1162 00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 2: I think some people in the education sector have coalition 1163 00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 2: derangement syndrome. So anything that the government says, even if 1164 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 2: it's great and they normally agree with it, like teachers 1165 00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 2: need to be good at teaching, they'll disagree with it. 1166 00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:55,879 Speaker 2: And you know what, all these people that say are 1167 00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:58,920 Speaker 2: experts in education, are they the people that are currently 1168 00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 2: making the decisions? And is the current system that they've created, 1169 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:03,759 Speaker 2: Because the system that we've got now doesn't seem to 1170 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:04,840 Speaker 2: be that great, does it. 1171 00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:06,839 Speaker 3: No, that's a very good point. And you know, Ali, 1172 00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:10,359 Speaker 3: actually why would we I mean, why not have the 1173 00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:14,120 Speaker 3: most skilled of most available and skilled people teaching the 1174 00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:16,759 Speaker 3: primary school kids? Like, why not go for level two? 1175 00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:17,719 Speaker 6: Yeah? 1176 00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 22: Okay, well level yeah, but if level two is the 1177 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:24,000 Speaker 22: right level, you can't just unilaterally pluck a level out 1178 00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:25,560 Speaker 22: of the air and go Yeah, that's the one that 1179 00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,279 Speaker 22: I think is applicable. I don't know about that. You 1180 00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:30,080 Speaker 22: don't know about that. I'd love to hear from someone 1181 00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:32,279 Speaker 22: who does know about that. And of course we've got 1182 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:34,600 Speaker 22: to have the best people. But you know, we all 1183 00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:37,120 Speaker 22: know people that like numbers, and do you want that 1184 00:56:37,239 --> 00:56:39,520 Speaker 22: to be the measure As far as the personality and 1185 00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:42,160 Speaker 22: diversity of the people teaching our kids, I don't. 1186 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:43,960 Speaker 3: Really care about the personality and the diversity. 1187 00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:47,560 Speaker 22: So I know, I want someone to be inspirational. I 1188 00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:49,879 Speaker 22: want them to be able to communicate. Well, I want 1189 00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:52,920 Speaker 22: them to be nice. 1190 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:54,759 Speaker 3: You have to be interested to Yeah, well, here's an 1191 00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:57,319 Speaker 3: argument for going for level two, Matt. At the moment, 1192 00:56:57,360 --> 00:56:59,319 Speaker 3: I think you only need something like ten credits at 1193 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 3: level one. That's obviously not enough. So let's go for 1194 00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:02,640 Speaker 3: a level two. 1195 00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:03,359 Speaker 12: Yeah. Sure. 1196 00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:05,200 Speaker 2: But that thing that you've got to have these amazing 1197 00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:07,359 Speaker 2: teachers that do all the stuff, it's the dead poet 1198 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:09,160 Speaker 2: society thing. I never had a good teacher in the 1199 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:11,120 Speaker 2: entire time I was there that aspired me. 1200 00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:13,480 Speaker 3: It looks where you are. 1201 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:18,560 Speaker 2: I am in real I'm real brainy, I'm super real brainy. 1202 00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, how did you manage if you didn't have 1203 00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:21,400 Speaker 3: good teachers? 1204 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:23,960 Speaker 2: Well, I mean I had teachers that were that taught me, 1205 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 2: but I didn't have any with great personalities, particularly that 1206 00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 2: were inspirational and made me wanting to perform a dead 1207 00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:33,520 Speaker 2: Poet society. Yeah, and scream up a DM at them. 1208 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:35,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, fair enough.

I've got a theory that the 1225 00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:11,880 Speaker 3: reason that we make jokes about Australians is because we're 1226 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:12,840 Speaker 3: actually jealous. 1227 00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 23: Of them, Oh, Heather. 1228 00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:17,800 Speaker 3: Because they're richer than us, and they're more confident than us, 1229 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 3: and they're cooler than us, and their tans better. 1230 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 22: You really want that accent, I mean even just the accent. 1231 00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 22: It's just, oh, my dear god.

This is almost you know, I write a 1233 00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:34,320 Speaker 22: passage you make jokes where competitive take the mickey, So 1234 00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:37,240 Speaker 22: put that aside. I do think it was silly and 1235 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 22: unnecessary removing today from that invitation. I mean, just put 1236 00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:46,120 Speaker 22: the English in brackets. But it's a bit tone deaf, 1237 00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:48,040 Speaker 22: and again it's created and I. 1238 00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:50,080 Speaker 3: Don't even reckon you need to put the English in brackets. 1239 00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:52,280 Speaker 3: I mean, everybody knows when you get an invitation, the 1240 00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:56,400 Speaker 3: first few words be they killeder or a loha or gooday, 1241 00:58:56,560 --> 00:59:00,600 Speaker 3: just mean hello the last few words before commer Goldsmith 1242 00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:03,360 Speaker 3: mean by and come on outseiet or you know what 1243 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:04,200 Speaker 3: that means?

If you get an advertation, 1258 00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:41,760 Speaker 3: understand it. 1259 00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 12: Yeah. 1260 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 3: The only thing you look at is who it's from, 1261 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:46,040 Speaker 3: what it's to, and what the date is in the 1262 00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:46,600 Speaker 3: start time. 1263 00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:49,640 Speaker 2: And it just didn't arrive on its own, like in 1264 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:51,640 Speaker 2: vacuum and you open it, what's this that there would 1265 00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:53,400 Speaker 2: have been a call to doing any discussion. There will 1266 00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:56,560 Speaker 2: be some organization about it. So I'm sure it's. 1267 00:59:56,520 --> 01:00:00,000 Speaker 22: I think you're assuming. I think you're assuming more actually 1268 01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:02,880 Speaker 22: to happen. I suspect that it goes straight into a diary. 1269 01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:05,640 Speaker 22: I don't think that the actual person that's been invited 1270 01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:06,920 Speaker 22: ever gets to see the invitation. 1271 01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:08,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, well exactly, that's exactly what I'm saying. I don't 1272 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:10,640 Speaker 2: think it even I don't think that they're making a 1273 01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,320 Speaker 2: decision based on reading the invitation. 1274 01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 3: So I said just exactly what Ali said at the 1275 01:00:16,840 --> 01:00:18,959 Speaker 3: start of the program, Matt, which was that he should 1276 01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:20,720 Speaker 3: never have taken out his cause to all kinds of trouble. 1277 01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:22,360 Speaker 3: He didn't need. It was just a silly thing to do. 1278 01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:24,280 Speaker 3: And I have been called woke as a result, I 1279 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 3: have you, which I think we all knew that I 1280 01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:28,320 Speaker 3: was woke. Though, what's your take on it? 1281 01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 11: Well, I don't know. 1282 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think this as big as an 1283 01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:34,160 Speaker 2: issue as anyone's making it. But does seem like he's 1284 01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:36,640 Speaker 2: making problems for himself that he didn't need to make. 1285 01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:40,040 Speaker 3: Blood Ali seems like a bad idea to have walked 1286 01:00:40,040 --> 01:00:42,600 Speaker 3: out of that council meeting today because, by my calculations, 1287 01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:45,360 Speaker 3: if Diane Calvin and Ben MacNulty and whoever in Wellington 1288 01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:47,000 Speaker 3: had stayed there, they would have won the vote. 1289 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:50,440 Speaker 22: No, I don't know whether that's the case hearing what 1290 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:52,520 Speaker 22: Diane said before. And the other thing that I found 1291 01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 22: interesting from what she said here, and this might be 1292 01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:58,160 Speaker 22: in the standing orders for the Wellington City Council, it's 1293 01:00:58,160 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 22: certainly not in the standing orders for christ She was saying. 1294 01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:04,560 Speaker 23: That you either vote yes, no or walk out. 1295 01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:06,600 Speaker 22: Now, what you can do in christ Church is you 1296 01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:09,600 Speaker 22: can vote yes no, or you can abstain. Now, what 1297 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,320 Speaker 22: I'd really like to know from her is the abstention 1298 01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:15,480 Speaker 22: not an is not an option in Wellington. And do 1299 01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:18,360 Speaker 22: you have to walk out? So look until she answers 1300 01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:20,080 Speaker 22: that I can't. I mean, on the face of it, it 1301 01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:22,120 Speaker 22: looks childish walking out. But if it's actually part of 1302 01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:24,880 Speaker 22: the standing orders that you have no choice, then well 1303 01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 22: they had no choice. 1304 01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:26,560 Speaker 23: But I'd like to know that. 1305 01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:29,160 Speaker 3: Slam dunk, isn't it, Matt. If you have a choice 1306 01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:31,840 Speaker 3: of raised poducer and crossing or not, the answer. 1307 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:33,480 Speaker 2: Is always not, oh yeah, absolutely got to get rid 1308 01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:36,240 Speaker 2: of the terrible Absolutely, But it would seem funny if 1309 01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:38,760 Speaker 2: you your options were yes, no, or you actually have 1310 01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:42,400 Speaker 2: to physically walk out you don't just say abstained like 1311 01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:44,280 Speaker 2: we need to check this, check this out, because if 1312 01:01:44,280 --> 01:01:46,440 Speaker 2: you actually have to stand up and then it's strange. 1313 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:48,080 Speaker 2: Will see little knaves of voice saying. 1314 01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:51,840 Speaker 3: I happen to have that information about walking out, Then. 1315 01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:54,440 Speaker 2: That seems like the system that they could probably streamline 1316 01:01:54,440 --> 01:01:54,840 Speaker 2: a little bit. 1317 01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:56,680 Speaker 3: I agree with you, guys.

He has spoken to the media today. 1365 01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:56,360 Speaker 3: This guy's name is Tony Burke. He says he actually 1366 01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:58,920 Speaker 3: did know what what else heer all meant because he 1367 01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:00,920 Speaker 3: learned it back in nineteen eighty two by listening to 1368 01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:03,120 Speaker 3: six Months in a Leaky Boat by split ends. 1369 01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:09,479 Speaker 1: Right there. 1370 01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 24: It is. 1371 01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 3: Everybody's like, that's basically all of Australasia knows because they sang. 1372 01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:22,520 Speaker 3: What do you think Paul Goldsmith's going to do now 1373 01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:24,480 Speaker 3: that he knows that it's in the song because he 1374 01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:26,640 Speaker 3: is the Arts and Culture Minister, is he going to 1375 01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:28,840 Speaker 3: try and take it out of the song? Better not listen? 1376 01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:30,720 Speaker 3: Doesn't look like the OSSI's, as I said earlier on 1377 01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:32,440 Speaker 3: actually give two hoots about it, right, so I was 1378 01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:35,320 Speaker 3: on six PR Perth where our mate Oli Peterson works. 1379 01:04:35,520 --> 01:04:36,960 Speaker 3: They called me out this can can you come on 1380 01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:39,840 Speaker 3: and talk about it? Like fine, any opportunity to chat? 1381 01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:43,240 Speaker 3: And then after me they had this political panel and 1382 01:04:43,280 --> 01:04:44,800 Speaker 3: like I had a couple of politicians. So we kept 1383 01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:46,880 Speaker 3: on listening and we kept the tape rolling and so 1384 01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:48,720 Speaker 3: this is what they think about it, right. One of 1385 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:53,040 Speaker 3: the politicians, Andrew Hastings, actually doesn't believe that key Wees 1386 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:54,600 Speaker 3: really think that Ossie's are simple? 1387 01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:58,400 Speaker 17: Obviously, Why are so many New Zealanders about to come 1388 01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:01,439 Speaker 17: stray citizens? I think it's like just under four hundred 1389 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,040 Speaker 17: thousand kiwis about to come a stray and citizens. If 1390 01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:05,800 Speaker 17: we were so simple, why would you want to join us? 1391 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:08,280 Speaker 3: Well, what I found written because he's on point right, 1392 01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:10,160 Speaker 3: we don't actually think this is why we all want 1393 01:05:10,160 --> 01:05:12,280 Speaker 3: to be Australians and we're really jealous of them. We 1394 01:05:12,280 --> 01:05:14,640 Speaker 3: would like to live there. The other politician I thought 1395 01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:17,480 Speaker 3: he said was really interesting because his name is Matt Keoh. 1396 01:05:17,920 --> 01:05:21,680 Speaker 3: He thinks Paul Goldsmith is onto something taking out unnecessary 1397 01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:23,920 Speaker 3: non English words because he actually came to New Zealand 1398 01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:24,640 Speaker 3: and sword. 1399 01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:26,720 Speaker 25: In action when I was there last year. I was 1400 01:05:26,760 --> 01:05:29,880 Speaker 25: there with Peter Khalil, the member for Wheel's the charity, 1401 01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:32,080 Speaker 25: the Intelligence Committee and a few others and in one 1402 01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:35,360 Speaker 25: meeting we had a two to three minute introduction in 1403 01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:40,640 Speaker 25: Maury spoken by a bloke who clearly wasn't Mary and 1404 01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:43,960 Speaker 25: who was stumbling his way through it. So you know, 1405 01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:46,600 Speaker 25: I get the point we need to respect for the 1406 01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:52,000 Speaker 25: first nation's languages. But you know, I think always the 1407 01:05:52,080 --> 01:05:55,560 Speaker 25: clarity is important and we all speaking this year, that's 1408 01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:56,440 Speaker 25: what we should strive for. 1409 01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:56,680 Speaker 13: Now. 1410 01:05:56,720 --> 01:05:59,080 Speaker 3: I know what you're thinking. You're thinking that Matt koh 1411 01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:03,760 Speaker 3: right wing racist. Oh no, mat Key O's from the 1412 01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:06,600 Speaker 3: Labor Party. So the Australian from the Labor Party sitting 1413 01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:09,240 Speaker 3: there watching the guy doing the Mardy that he can't speak, 1414 01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:12,240 Speaker 3: thinking this is embarrassing. You shouldn't be doing that anyway. 1415 01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:14,200 Speaker 3: Listen on that asb call to get the rate cut. 1416 01:06:14,240 --> 01:06:15,880 Speaker 3: Next week we have a chat to Liam down about that. 1417 01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:18,000 Speaker 3: But first let's deal with all birds and what's going 1418 01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:20,080 Speaker 3: wrong for these guys straight after the news. 1419 01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:24,600 Speaker 12: Lave or hanging out the party. 1420 01:06:30,360 --> 01:06:34,040 Speaker 1: We're Business and Insight the Business Hour. 1421 01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:36,840 Speaker 4: We're the head the duple.

Liam down 1426 01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:50,360 Speaker 3: on that shortly around the market crash. The question is 1427 01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:51,960 Speaker 3: is there more to come or are we through it? 1428 01:06:51,960 --> 01:06:54,600 Speaker 3: We'll talk to Sam Dickey and has the milk price 1429 01:06:54,680 --> 01:06:57,520 Speaker 3: turned in the right way? Jamie McKay on that very 1430 01:06:57,560 --> 01:07:00,240 Speaker 3: shortly right now at a seven past six. Now more 1431 01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:03,400 Speaker 3: bad news for former market darling. All Birds, the eco 1432 01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:06,320 Speaker 3: friendly shoemaker, which was co founded obviously by former All 1433 01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:08,800 Speaker 3: White Tim Brown, has posted a net loss of nineteen 1434 01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:11,600 Speaker 3: million US dollars for the second quarter this year. All 1435 01:07:11,640 --> 01:07:14,600 Speaker 3: Birds shares were trading at almost thirty US bucks each 1436 01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:17,320 Speaker 3: when the company listed on the Nasdaq three years ago. 1437 01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:20,000 Speaker 3: They're now worth less than a dollar. Greg Smith is 1438 01:07:20,040 --> 01:07:22,280 Speaker 3: the head of retail at Devin Funds Management and with us. 1439 01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:23,360 Speaker 4: Hey, Greg, Hi, Heather. 1440 01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:24,840 Speaker 3: Are they going to be forced a dlist? 1441 01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:28,000 Speaker 13: Well, that's the sort of the latest sort of risk. 1442 01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:31,520 Speaker 13: I suppose the Nazets issued them. I noticed since notice 1443 01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 13: that they've traded below the dollar mark for thirty days, 1444 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:37,360 Speaker 13: so they've basically got to the end of September to 1445 01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 13: get it above a dollar for ten consecutive business dates. 1446 01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:41,880 Speaker 13: So the clock is ticking. 1447 01:07:41,960 --> 01:07:43,520 Speaker 11: But you know, they. 1448 01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:45,920 Speaker 13: Could actually request an extension of up to six months, 1449 01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:48,000 Speaker 13: and there's actually a way they can engineer it by 1450 01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:51,520 Speaker 13: doing reverse stock splits. So but I think they've got 1451 01:07:51,520 --> 01:07:53,760 Speaker 13: bigger problems than the dlisting. 1452 01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:55,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, what are the bigger problems? 1453 01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:56,919 Speaker 13: Well, look, when you look at I think it's really 1454 01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:59,800 Speaker 13: been a victim of its own high. As you pointed out, 1455 01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:03,960 Speaker 13: listed at the peak of the pandemic late twenty twenty one. 1456 01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:06,600 Speaker 13: Consumer brands are in fashion. You know, had the eco 1457 01:08:07,160 --> 01:08:10,400 Speaker 13: friendly company footwear story to tell people love the love 1458 01:08:10,440 --> 01:08:12,640 Speaker 13: the story. You know, Obama he was wearing will Runners 1459 01:08:12,680 --> 01:08:16,160 Speaker 13: Liano Leonardo DiCaprio. He was an early investor. Time dubbed 1460 01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:18,280 Speaker 13: at the most comfortable shoe in the world. It was 1461 01:08:18,320 --> 01:08:20,160 Speaker 13: crazy when you think about it. You know, the valuation 1462 01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:23,080 Speaker 13: in the company was over four billion US dollars. The 1463 01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:25,559 Speaker 13: year before, they'd made just two hundred million in sales. 1464 01:08:25,840 --> 01:08:28,320 Speaker 13: You fast forward four years, they're still around about two 1465 01:08:28,400 --> 01:08:31,200 Speaker 13: hundred million in sales. So the call fact that dissipated 1466 01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:34,639 Speaker 13: are they expanded overseas. That was expensive. Brooks and Watar 1467 01:08:34,640 --> 01:08:37,400 Speaker 13: stores competitors, and then we've had a cost of living 1468 01:08:37,439 --> 01:08:41,439 Speaker 13: crisis and the company doesn't discount. So yeah, it's a reading. 1469 01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:43,240 Speaker 13: One hundred and fifty million dollars is what the company 1470 01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:46,439 Speaker 13: lost twenty twenty three, and as you point out, the 1471 01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:48,800 Speaker 13: valuation has fallen and if you can invested, the peak 1472 01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:50,920 Speaker 13: could be down around him at ninety eight percent. But 1473 01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:53,080 Speaker 13: they have a new CEO and he has a plan. 1474 01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:56,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. Now on that new CEO, right, he's one of 1475 01:08:56,439 --> 01:09:00,160 Speaker 3: the so called traditional executives that they've brought in. Have 1476 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:02,080 Speaker 3: also fired a whole bunch of people. They shut a 1477 01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:04,599 Speaker 3: bunch of shops. Is this showing any signs of working? 1478 01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:07,760 Speaker 13: It's actually showing some margin and prement, but it's a 1479 01:09:07,840 --> 01:09:10,040 Speaker 13: long way back, and you know that that top line 1480 01:09:10,479 --> 01:09:12,680 Speaker 13: is never going to eventuate how it was imagined. So 1481 01:09:13,000 --> 01:09:14,400 Speaker 13: all he can do is work with what he's got. 1482 01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:17,479 Speaker 13: So what they're doing really is closing underperforming stores. In 1483 01:09:17,520 --> 01:09:21,400 Speaker 13: the US, they're closing up to fourteen this year. Offshore 1484 01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:24,439 Speaker 13: markets are moving to a distributed model, which is less 1485 01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:28,960 Speaker 13: costly than obviously having their own stores, and they're just 1486 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:31,479 Speaker 13: having direct markets. In the US, UK and EU, the 1487 01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:34,559 Speaker 13: shifted their factories that's a bit cheaper the factories in 1488 01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:38,120 Speaker 13: Vietnam there as well. They're still not discounting, so yeah, 1489 01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:39,240 Speaker 13: they can be a bit of a here when we 1490 01:09:39,280 --> 01:09:42,000 Speaker 13: have got a cost of living crisis, and yeah, consumers 1491 01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:42,840 Speaker 13: are feeling the pinch. 1492 01:09:43,240 --> 01:09:43,960 Speaker 4: And you look at the. 1493 01:09:43,880 --> 01:09:47,599 Speaker 13: Top line revenues down twenty seven percent at the last 1494 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:49,720 Speaker 13: quarter on a year ago. Listen to the earning call 1495 01:09:50,280 --> 01:09:54,040 Speaker 13: and management still talking about telling a story to consumers, 1496 01:09:54,080 --> 01:09:56,320 Speaker 13: which I thought was somewhat ironic. They've got some new 1497 01:09:56,360 --> 01:09:59,560 Speaker 13: brands coming. They actually have stopped the pace of the 1498 01:09:59,840 --> 01:10:02,400 Speaker 13: new brands that are coming, but they have got the tree Glider. 1499 01:10:02,479 --> 01:10:05,080 Speaker 13: They're doing things of a few new colors as well. 1500 01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:08,080 Speaker 13: But yet it is a long road back, and you know, 1501 01:10:08,120 --> 01:10:09,559 Speaker 13: we are not going to get back to that four 1502 01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 13: billion valuation, probably not in the next sort of fifty 1503 01:10:12,680 --> 01:10:13,880 Speaker 13: years anyway. 1504 01:10:13,640 --> 01:10:16,600 Speaker 3: Oh great fifty years. Okay. I mean, listen, if what 1505 01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:20,240 Speaker 3: made them so wealthy, so valuable was the fact that 1506 01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:23,320 Speaker 3: they were in it shoe, and when they're not in itshoe, 1507 01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:25,080 Speaker 3: it's not working for them, does that mean that that 1508 01:10:25,200 --> 01:10:26,880 Speaker 3: is the key they need to be cool again. 1509 01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:29,400 Speaker 13: Yeah, and then we were seeing it's cool. You're quite right, 1510 01:10:29,439 --> 01:10:31,880 Speaker 13: you know, we had all the A listers wearing them. 1511 01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:34,519 Speaker 13: You know, they were seeing this comfy. Actually, the other 1512 01:10:34,560 --> 01:10:36,439 Speaker 13: point as well was, you know, supposed part of the 1513 01:10:36,479 --> 01:10:39,360 Speaker 13: issue has been the actual feedback from consumers is actually 1514 01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:42,800 Speaker 13: don't last that long. They're not the lacking and durability, 1515 01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:44,400 Speaker 13: which is a bit of a head when particularly when 1516 01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:46,519 Speaker 13: people are feeling the pinch and they want stuff that's 1517 01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:49,439 Speaker 13: going to last. So that cool factor, I think, you know, 1518 01:10:50,080 --> 01:10:52,599 Speaker 13: was engineered a lot of the hype that you saw, 1519 01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:55,120 Speaker 13: you know, and then the lead up to the stock listing, 1520 01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:58,240 Speaker 13: and also there were stock market conditions which also drove 1521 01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:01,960 Speaker 13: that hype as well, so becoming cool the game would help. 1522 01:11:02,400 --> 01:11:05,360 Speaker 13: I'm not sure we're going to see Donald Trump wearing 1523 01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:09,640 Speaker 13: them all or come on, Harris, But yeah, it is 1524 01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:12,280 Speaker 13: a long road back, and you know, brands do sort 1525 01:11:12,280 --> 01:11:14,240 Speaker 13: of have their day in the sun, but they also 1526 01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:16,800 Speaker 13: do make a comeback. Who would have thought Crocs would 1527 01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:18,160 Speaker 13: make a revival, so you never know. 1528 01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:20,439 Speaker 3: Well that's a very good point, Greg, actually an excellent point. 1529 01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:22,360 Speaker 3: Thank you so much, Mad appreciated Greg Smith, head of 1530 01:11:22,360 --> 01:11:24,920 Speaker 3: retail at Devin Fund's Management. I'll tell you what their 1531 01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:28,519 Speaker 3: problem is right now. One of many obviously, is that 1532 01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:30,760 Speaker 3: all birds have to be really really careful that they 1533 01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:33,519 Speaker 3: don't turn into the old person's shoe. And I say 1534 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:36,280 Speaker 3: this like with love, but there are a lot of 1535 01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:39,160 Speaker 3: people in their sixties and seventies in my life. Oh 1536 01:11:39,280 --> 01:11:42,400 Speaker 3: love a pair of all birds because they're comfortable. And 1537 01:11:42,479 --> 01:11:45,200 Speaker 3: so you got all the boomers rocking them. And if 1538 01:11:45,200 --> 01:11:47,320 Speaker 3: the boomers are rocking them, well, all of a sudden, 1539 01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:49,320 Speaker 3: it just starts to look like comfy shoes, doesn't And 1540 01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:51,240 Speaker 3: that's not particularly cool. So they may have to figure 1541 01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:52,320 Speaker 3: out how they're going to get around that. 1542 01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:52,680 Speaker 7: Here. 1543 01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:55,160 Speaker 3: This stop being so woke. This is my day for workness, 1544 01:11:55,160 --> 01:11:58,040 Speaker 3: isn't it. You well know that ramps jump out at ships. 1545 01:11:58,479 --> 01:12:00,720 Speaker 3: Thank you Gray. This is true of Vio. That's what's 1546 01:12:00,720 --> 01:12:04,880 Speaker 3: happened to Kwiral. Obviously, the gender row at the Olympics 1547 01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:08,679 Speaker 3: has continued overnight. This is now because the other boxer 1548 01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,040 Speaker 3: who's under question is also through to her gold medal final. 1549 01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:13,559 Speaker 3: They're not in the same final by the way, they 1550 01:12:13,600 --> 01:12:16,600 Speaker 3: are in different waight divisions. But this is Taiwan's Li 1551 01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:19,800 Speaker 3: Yu Ting also has been banned. This is the two 1552 01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:22,200 Speaker 3: of them, the Algerian boxer and then this one, this 1553 01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:26,200 Speaker 3: boxer from Taiwan, also banned by the International Boxing Association, 1554 01:12:26,360 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 3: doesn't believe that either of these women are actually women 1555 01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:31,400 Speaker 3: by sex. Seems to be that the same problem is 1556 01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:33,920 Speaker 3: true of both of them. That they've done these tests apparently, 1557 01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:36,600 Speaker 3: and the tests have apparently found that they've got x 1558 01:12:36,720 --> 01:12:39,320 Speaker 3: Y chromosomes, and X Y chromosomes obviously belong to blokes 1559 01:12:40,920 --> 01:12:45,400 Speaker 3: or intersex people, so that's a possibility too. Now, what 1560 01:12:45,520 --> 01:12:48,960 Speaker 3: happened here is that the Taiwanese boxer beat a boxer 1561 01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:52,360 Speaker 3: from Turkey, and that boxer from Turkey, who was defeated, 1562 01:12:52,479 --> 01:12:54,840 Speaker 3: did the same thing that the last woman did who 1563 01:12:54,920 --> 01:12:57,080 Speaker 3: Lynn beat. As she walked out of her side of 1564 01:12:57,120 --> 01:12:59,720 Speaker 3: the ring, she put her two index fingers together to 1565 01:12:59,760 --> 01:13:02,840 Speaker 3: form X. Right, so she got the index fingers from 1566 01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:04,479 Speaker 3: each hand put them together form an X, and then 1567 01:13:04,520 --> 01:13:06,320 Speaker 3: she turned and she showed it to all the sides 1568 01:13:06,320 --> 01:13:08,160 Speaker 3: of the boxing ring. So she was trying to make 1569 01:13:08,200 --> 01:13:10,719 Speaker 3: a point. Now this is being read as a reference 1570 01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:15,120 Speaker 3: to her having two X chromosomes. Women have two X chromosomes, 1571 01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:17,200 Speaker 3: so it's obviously a protest by the sounds of things, 1572 01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:19,320 Speaker 3: And what's just happened fourteen past six. 1573 01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:23,599 Speaker 1: Crunching the numbers and getting the results. It's Heather Duplicy 1574 01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:27,000 Speaker 1: Allen with the Business Hour thanks to my HR, the 1575 01:13:27,200 --> 01:13:31,599 Speaker 1: HR platform for SME on newstalks EDB. Whether it's macro, 1576 01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:34,840 Speaker 1: microme or just plain economics, it's all on. 1577 01:13:34,800 --> 01:13:37,280 Speaker 4: The Business Hour with Heather Duplicy. 1578 01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:41,320 Speaker 1: Allen and my HR, the HR platform for SME News TALKSB. 1579 01:13:41,439 --> 01:13:43,320 Speaker 3: Jamie McKay is going to be with us shortly. It 1580 01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:46,400 Speaker 3: looks to me like, judging by what he's telling me, 1581 01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:49,559 Speaker 3: the world record for sharing is held by New Zealand 1582 01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:51,320 Speaker 3: has just been smashed by a Scott. I'm not happy 1583 01:13:51,360 --> 01:13:52,800 Speaker 3: about this. He's going to talk us through the short 1584 01:13:52,840 --> 01:13:55,160 Speaker 3: because it's ours. That's like every time we lose the 1585 01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:57,640 Speaker 3: Rugby World Cup. It's just like it's not okay. So 1586 01:13:57,680 --> 01:13:59,960 Speaker 3: he'll talk us through that shortly. Seventeen past six. Now, 1587 01:14:00,320 --> 01:14:02,000 Speaker 3: as I was telling you earlier, there's been a surprise 1588 01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:05,360 Speaker 3: call from the ASB economists late this afternoon. They now 1589 01:14:05,479 --> 01:14:07,879 Speaker 3: also think that the Reserve Bank will drop the official 1590 01:14:07,920 --> 01:14:10,360 Speaker 3: cash rate next week. Liam dan is The Herald's Business 1591 01:14:10,439 --> 01:14:13,880 Speaker 3: editor at large. ALM got I mean, would you consider 1592 01:14:13,920 --> 01:14:16,600 Speaker 3: this now mounting pressure on the Reserve Bank given that 1593 01:14:16,600 --> 01:14:19,120 Speaker 3: you've got ASB B and z at Ankiwibank saying go 1594 01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:19,719 Speaker 3: next week. 1595 01:14:20,880 --> 01:14:23,719 Speaker 9: Yeah, well, I mean it certainly is pressure of a kind. 1596 01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:27,360 Speaker 9: It's kind of exciting. It's probably the most interesting ocr 1597 01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:30,400 Speaker 9: call we've had for well it is for more than 1598 01:14:30,439 --> 01:14:34,400 Speaker 9: a year. Good on them AFBS throwing caution to the wind. 1599 01:14:34,439 --> 01:14:37,360 Speaker 9: Carp ADM. I think they said, you know that we 1600 01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:40,920 Speaker 9: can go now, which is effectively saying really that they 1601 01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:44,200 Speaker 9: think we've got inflation beat, which is something to cheer 1602 01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:47,200 Speaker 9: about as well. It's a bit of a marginal call 1603 01:14:47,240 --> 01:14:50,040 Speaker 9: for a couple of reasons. You know, we haven't got 1604 01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:53,720 Speaker 9: inflation under three yet, three percent, which is you know, 1605 01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:56,400 Speaker 9: into the target range. So you have to be very 1606 01:14:56,400 --> 01:15:01,439 Speaker 9: confident that the economy is now on its knees and 1607 01:15:01,560 --> 01:15:04,080 Speaker 9: flat and all that sort of stuff, that there's nothing 1608 01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:06,519 Speaker 9: else that can happen that the except for the inflation 1609 01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:10,200 Speaker 9: to keep falling. So there's that, you know. I've argued 1610 01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 9: that maybe the all the market turmoil and and what's 1611 01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:17,760 Speaker 9: happening in the US is in Japan as a sort 1612 01:15:17,760 --> 01:15:20,439 Speaker 9: of a hook that the Reserve Bank can hang its 1613 01:15:20,439 --> 01:15:23,679 Speaker 9: hat on. But KVY Bank also made the point Jared 1614 01:15:23,720 --> 01:15:26,400 Speaker 9: Kerr making the point that you know, technically the Reserve 1615 01:15:26,479 --> 01:15:31,840 Speaker 9: Bank still has next August as in its forecast for 1616 01:15:31,880 --> 01:15:34,040 Speaker 9: the first rate cut, So there is a pretty big 1617 01:15:34,080 --> 01:15:37,920 Speaker 9: credibility gap to leap there, you know, if you're going 1618 01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:40,439 Speaker 9: to be talking about cutting next week this August, and 1619 01:15:41,280 --> 01:15:44,000 Speaker 9: I know they didn't change the forecast because they just 1620 01:15:44,080 --> 01:15:49,559 Speaker 9: don't do that at the last monetary policy review, and 1621 01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:51,320 Speaker 9: it does date back to May when things are a 1622 01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:54,759 Speaker 9: bit different. But still, you know, Keevy Bank actually saying 1623 01:15:54,800 --> 01:15:56,840 Speaker 9: that they think they should cut now that they probably 1624 01:15:56,920 --> 01:16:00,360 Speaker 9: won't because it's just too much of a leap and 1625 01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:02,240 Speaker 9: it would look bad. Now. I don't know, if you're 1626 01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:05,839 Speaker 9: going to save the economy, you've got to yes, but everyone. 1627 01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:08,040 Speaker 3: Else is going to look really bad? Is if they 1628 01:16:08,240 --> 01:16:11,000 Speaker 3: if they hold onto this until November so that they 1629 01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:13,160 Speaker 3: can actually stand in front of the cameras as opposed 1630 01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:16,040 Speaker 3: to just issue a press release in October or August. 1631 01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:19,559 Speaker 3: If they hold onto it until November and they drive 1632 01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:22,040 Speaker 3: us deeper into the Maya that we're in, I mean, 1633 01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:24,280 Speaker 3: that looks worse, doesn't it than changing your mind? 1634 01:16:24,960 --> 01:16:28,240 Speaker 9: Yeah, well, there's never never There are always terrible choices. 1635 01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:31,280 Speaker 9: But yeah, I mean they could they could go in October, 1636 01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:33,920 Speaker 9: but they'll be standing in front of the cameras next week. 1637 01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:37,120 Speaker 3: Will they look they've got to go next week? Then, 1638 01:16:37,120 --> 01:16:39,280 Speaker 3: don't they? Because I mean, this is what is saying. 1639 01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:42,400 Speaker 3: The risk of type monetary policy overshooting has got real. 1640 01:16:42,479 --> 01:16:43,519 Speaker 3: I think we can all see that. 1641 01:16:44,720 --> 01:16:47,839 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean it was somewhat inevitable. I mean central 1642 01:16:47,880 --> 01:16:51,400 Speaker 9: banks in monetary policy generally has it works and so 1643 01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:53,479 Speaker 9: we like it because it works, but we know that 1644 01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:56,920 Speaker 9: it's very blunt and it tends to be too much. 1645 01:16:56,960 --> 01:16:59,080 Speaker 9: One way. We see too much stimulus and you see 1646 01:16:59,120 --> 01:17:02,920 Speaker 9: too much and then you know, we argue about whether 1647 01:17:03,320 --> 01:17:05,200 Speaker 9: whether it could have been done better, and well, maybe 1648 01:17:05,240 --> 01:17:08,720 Speaker 9: it could have. But there's a there's a there's a 1649 01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:11,519 Speaker 9: you know, there's an opportunity here. It does look like 1650 01:17:11,640 --> 01:17:14,639 Speaker 9: inflation isn't going anywhere, but down from here it would 1651 01:17:14,680 --> 01:17:18,080 Speaker 9: be a surprise. So if it did bounce back up, 1652 01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:19,879 Speaker 9: but you've got to remember that it would be absolutely 1653 01:17:19,960 --> 01:17:24,360 Speaker 9: disastrous to cut and then have inflation bounce back up. 1654 01:17:24,400 --> 01:17:26,760 Speaker 9: You know, that would just blow on their minds and 1655 01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:30,280 Speaker 9: be too much want to go, but this of the cycle, 1656 01:17:30,360 --> 01:17:32,720 Speaker 9: so they do. They do have to be sure, but 1657 01:17:33,439 --> 01:17:36,800 Speaker 9: you know, it's funny. It's such a there's so much 1658 01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:39,520 Speaker 9: going on, it's almost like a long long time till Wednesday. 1659 01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:44,800 Speaker 9: You know, if if we see a couple more nights 1660 01:17:44,800 --> 01:17:48,920 Speaker 9: at market turmoil and so forth, that probably would be enough. 1661 01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:51,760 Speaker 9: You know, a lot of the other economists were saying, well, 1662 01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:56,200 Speaker 9: that unemployment number yesterday wasn't bad enough to justify it yet, 1663 01:17:56,200 --> 01:17:58,000 Speaker 9: you know, which is a weird way of looking at it. 1664 01:17:58,040 --> 01:18:01,759 Speaker 9: But it wasn't wasn't worse than expected. It was about 1665 01:18:01,800 --> 01:18:06,360 Speaker 9: being unexpected. So that might give them some reason to 1666 01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:09,000 Speaker 9: hold on till October. He could end up having to 1667 01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:10,519 Speaker 9: do double cuts at that point. 1668 01:18:11,439 --> 01:18:14,240 Speaker 3: Look, ultimately, they're going to get judged Liam, on what 1669 01:18:14,360 --> 01:18:16,960 Speaker 3: we are like when they are finished with this, and 1670 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:18,240 Speaker 3: that's not going to be good for the my thing 1671 01:18:18,280 --> 01:18:19,840 Speaker 3: guy the way, Liam, it's really really good to talk 1672 01:18:19,880 --> 01:18:21,280 Speaker 3: to you. Thank you about this, Liam Dan, the Herald's 1673 01:18:21,280 --> 01:18:24,439 Speaker 3: Business editor at large. Heither, I'm forty three. My oldies 1674 01:18:24,439 --> 01:18:26,559 Speaker 3: brought me all birds for Christmas a couple of years ago, 1675 01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:27,880 Speaker 3: and I never wore them because I didn't want to 1676 01:18:27,880 --> 01:18:30,400 Speaker 3: look like a boomer, Right, What did I tell you? 1677 01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:33,200 Speaker 3: I started wearing them recently for a bit of physical stuff. 1678 01:18:33,240 --> 01:18:35,760 Speaker 3: At work at times I thought no one would see 1679 01:18:35,880 --> 01:18:39,559 Speaker 3: me good from you. As it turns out, they've pretty 1680 01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:41,599 Speaker 3: much fallen apart in six months. And there you go. 1681 01:18:41,880 --> 01:18:45,840 Speaker 3: Now I should have mentioned this earlier, But the boss 1682 01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:48,799 Speaker 3: of Wellington Water has quit, hasn't she? In a twist 1683 01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:51,040 Speaker 3: that everybody could see coming. Because I don't know if 1684 01:18:51,080 --> 01:18:54,000 Speaker 3: you remember, but Nick, the chair of Wellington Water, Nick Leggett, 1685 01:18:54,520 --> 01:18:56,240 Speaker 3: was on this show two weeks ago talking to me 1686 01:18:56,640 --> 01:18:59,000 Speaker 3: and he basically couldn't hide the fact he didn't have 1687 01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:00,720 Speaker 3: any confidence and earn that he was looking for her 1688 01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:03,920 Speaker 3: to quit, and that he was blaming her for the 1689 01:19:03,920 --> 01:19:05,880 Speaker 3: fact that, remember they had that fifty one million dollar 1690 01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:08,400 Speaker 3: budgeting error and she hadn't actually told the board how 1691 01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:10,000 Speaker 3: bad it was, but had minimized it. So he was 1692 01:19:10,040 --> 01:19:11,920 Speaker 3: pretty keen to see the back of her. Well, she's 1693 01:19:11,960 --> 01:19:15,559 Speaker 3: gone effective tomorrow now. Credit to her. This is Tanya Haskell. 1694 01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:17,599 Speaker 3: Credit to her. She was actually a pleasure to deal with. 1695 01:19:17,880 --> 01:19:21,559 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously the business wasn't running particularly well, but 1696 01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:24,040 Speaker 3: in terms of her actually coming up, coming on shows, 1697 01:19:24,320 --> 01:19:26,880 Speaker 3: talking to the media, telling the people of Wellington, telling 1698 01:19:26,920 --> 01:19:29,200 Speaker 3: the country what was up, she was always doing that. 1699 01:19:29,280 --> 01:19:31,800 Speaker 3: So good on her but unfortunately, as I say, the 1700 01:19:31,800 --> 01:19:34,519 Speaker 3: business wasn't running well. So she's gone. Six twenty three. 1701 01:19:36,280 --> 01:19:39,479 Speaker 4: The Rural Report on Heather due to see Allen Drive. 1702 01:19:40,240 --> 01:19:42,320 Speaker 3: Hey, well, Jamie McKay. Obviously as a host of the country, 1703 01:19:42,400 --> 01:19:43,400 Speaker 3: Hey Jamie. 1704 01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:46,759 Speaker 24: Hello, woke cousin heathern. I was listening to you between 1705 01:19:47,280 --> 01:19:49,120 Speaker 24: four and five. I didn't realize you were woke. 1706 01:19:49,120 --> 01:19:52,120 Speaker 3: Congratulations, nor did I nor did many of us. But anyway, 1707 01:19:52,120 --> 01:19:53,400 Speaker 3: we're going to take that one. We're going to roll 1708 01:19:53,400 --> 01:19:55,439 Speaker 3: with it because that's something to show off, isn't it? 1709 01:19:55,640 --> 01:19:55,840 Speaker 5: Hey? 1710 01:19:56,280 --> 01:19:58,639 Speaker 3: And one day you can be too, Jomie. The milk 1711 01:19:58,680 --> 01:19:59,960 Speaker 3: price is looking a little better, isn't it. 1712 01:20:00,640 --> 01:20:01,080 Speaker 12: Yeah, it is. 1713 01:20:01,680 --> 01:20:04,840 Speaker 24: We may not have enough natural gas and electricity to 1714 01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:08,920 Speaker 24: run our dairy factories, Heather, but look, the milk futures 1715 01:20:08,920 --> 01:20:10,800 Speaker 24: price is looking pretty good for the twenty four to 1716 01:20:10,840 --> 01:20:13,679 Speaker 24: twenty five season, the one we've just started on. It's 1717 01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:16,280 Speaker 24: currently sitting at eight dollars sixty one. After that good 1718 01:20:16,320 --> 01:20:20,559 Speaker 24: GDT auction Wednesday morning, our time, the volumes are up 1719 01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:24,800 Speaker 24: big time for whole milk powder up sixty percent, So 1720 01:20:24,960 --> 01:20:26,679 Speaker 24: we got rid of those. There's going to be increased 1721 01:20:26,760 --> 01:20:29,479 Speaker 24: volumes in September, China came in and played a more 1722 01:20:29,520 --> 01:20:32,160 Speaker 24: dominant role. If they continue that and we can get 1723 01:20:32,200 --> 01:20:36,120 Speaker 24: through this peak production hump, things are looking pretty positive 1724 01:20:36,120 --> 01:20:39,200 Speaker 24: for twenty four to twenty five. So this season, the 1725 01:20:39,240 --> 01:20:42,439 Speaker 24: one we've just finished twenty three twenty four looks pretty 1726 01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:46,080 Speaker 24: much locked and loaded for Fonterra at about seven dollars 1727 01:20:46,160 --> 01:20:50,480 Speaker 24: eighty the futures market's it's got it at seven eighty seven. Interestingly, 1728 01:20:50,520 --> 01:20:52,640 Speaker 24: twenty five twenty six, yes, they do go out a 1729 01:20:52,720 --> 01:20:55,000 Speaker 24: year and a bit is sitting at eight fifty five. 1730 01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:58,160 Speaker 24: It's also worth looking back twelve months to mid August 1731 01:20:58,640 --> 01:21:02,040 Speaker 24: twenty twenty three, whole milk crashed eleven percent, and at 1732 01:21:02,040 --> 01:21:04,799 Speaker 24: that stage we were looking at a six dollars seventy 1733 01:21:04,800 --> 01:21:07,759 Speaker 24: five milk price, So Deeri certainly turned a corner. 1734 01:21:07,800 --> 01:21:10,719 Speaker 3: Oh thank goodness. Now have we had our own record, 1735 01:21:10,800 --> 01:21:12,760 Speaker 3: like the world record and sharing set by a New 1736 01:21:12,840 --> 01:21:14,680 Speaker 3: Zealander smashed by a scott. 1737 01:21:15,040 --> 01:21:17,880 Speaker 24: Yeah, yeah, this is a great story. A veteran Scottish 1738 01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:21,360 Speaker 24: shearer who's incidentally the only woman who's qualified in the 1739 01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:25,120 Speaker 24: top thirty at the Golden Shares in Master and she 1740 01:21:25,439 --> 01:21:28,320 Speaker 24: shattered a world record set by one of our guns, 1741 01:21:28,360 --> 01:21:31,160 Speaker 24: because we've got a couple of guns here in this country. 1742 01:21:32,040 --> 01:21:35,519 Speaker 24: Sasha Bond held the nine hour record, Meghan Whitehead the 1743 01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:37,960 Speaker 24: eight hour one. So this woman by the name of 1744 01:21:38,200 --> 01:21:40,759 Speaker 24: Una Cameron, I hope I've got a name right, fifty 1745 01:21:40,800 --> 01:21:43,280 Speaker 24: one year old Heather. That's older than you. That's way 1746 01:21:43,400 --> 01:21:46,679 Speaker 24: older than you. So she smashed the existing nine hour 1747 01:21:46,720 --> 01:21:50,000 Speaker 24: strong WILLU record of four hundred and fifty eight she sure, 1748 01:21:50,360 --> 01:21:53,320 Speaker 24: five hundred and seventeen sheep and nine hours. And I 1749 01:21:53,360 --> 01:21:54,920 Speaker 24: know you go to the gym, Heather, and I know 1750 01:21:55,000 --> 01:21:57,599 Speaker 24: you fit, but there's no way you could drag out 1751 01:21:57,800 --> 01:22:00,320 Speaker 24: five hundred and seventeen sheep and nine hours left loan 1752 01:22:00,439 --> 01:22:00,880 Speaker 24: share them. 1753 01:22:01,040 --> 01:22:04,240 Speaker 3: Jeez, But I mean, Jamie, the difference between like let's say, 1754 01:22:04,240 --> 01:22:08,639 Speaker 3: four hundred and sixty and five hundred and twenty is massive, Yeah, 1755 01:22:08,640 --> 01:22:08,840 Speaker 3: it is. 1756 01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:12,320 Speaker 24: And that's where it becomes a wee tricky because all 1757 01:22:12,360 --> 01:22:15,040 Speaker 24: these records are now or it looks like they're almost 1758 01:22:15,080 --> 01:22:17,799 Speaker 24: all being set in the UK. The sheep are easier 1759 01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:20,559 Speaker 24: sharing over there. They do have to have a minimum 1760 01:22:20,640 --> 01:22:24,400 Speaker 24: wall requirement for the U Sharing record of three kilograms 1761 01:22:24,439 --> 01:22:28,479 Speaker 24: for sheep, but they're just easier sharing. Incidentally, there's sort 1762 01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:32,120 Speaker 24: of a very collegial attitude to sharing because in her 1763 01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:36,639 Speaker 24: corner was a former world record holder from New Zealand 1764 01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 24: here by the name of Amy Silcock, who was helping 1765 01:22:39,439 --> 01:22:42,040 Speaker 24: out the back in the pens. The sheep was shorn 1766 01:22:42,320 --> 01:22:44,760 Speaker 24: at a property run by a guy by the name 1767 01:22:44,760 --> 01:22:48,160 Speaker 24: of Matt Smith. He's also a world record holder and 1768 01:22:48,240 --> 01:22:51,160 Speaker 24: he's the brother, wait for it, of our world champion 1769 01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:54,719 Speaker 24: sharer Roland Smith. So yep world record to a fifty 1770 01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:58,400 Speaker 24: one year old I might even have a crack myself, Jamie. 1771 01:22:58,400 --> 01:23:01,200 Speaker 3: Thanks very much, Jamie McKay to the country. Headlines are 1772 01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:07,040 Speaker 3: next to me, Sam Picky. 1773 01:23:05,200 --> 01:23:08,879 Speaker 1: Everything from SMEs to the big corporates of a Business 1774 01:23:08,880 --> 01:23:12,519 Speaker 1: Hour with Heather Duplessy Allen and my HR, the HR 1775 01:23:12,640 --> 01:23:16,560 Speaker 1: platform for SME us talks at Base. 1776 01:23:28,560 --> 01:23:31,040 Speaker 3: He's done another one, so this is the third day 1777 01:23:31,040 --> 01:23:32,720 Speaker 3: in a row that he's done a mural. This time 1778 01:23:32,760 --> 01:23:35,120 Speaker 3: he's done three monkeys swinging across the bridge of an 1779 01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:37,799 Speaker 3: East London train station. So he's got the monkeys today. 1780 01:23:38,200 --> 01:23:40,000 Speaker 3: He did the elephants yesterday and then he did the 1781 01:23:40,040 --> 01:23:42,640 Speaker 3: goat the day before. And because it's all animals, the 1782 01:23:42,680 --> 01:23:45,360 Speaker 3: series is now being called by his fans the London 1783 01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:47,519 Speaker 3: Zoo series, and as I told you the other day, 1784 01:23:47,560 --> 01:23:50,200 Speaker 3: because Banksy isn't putting any captions in here at the moment, 1785 01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:52,639 Speaker 3: people are spending a lot of time trying to figure 1786 01:23:52,640 --> 01:23:55,160 Speaker 3: out what he means by it. The new theory is 1787 01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:58,759 Speaker 3: that he's comparing the recent far right rioters to wild 1788 01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:01,280 Speaker 3: zoo animals, which immediately I am prepared to come out 1789 01:24:01,280 --> 01:24:03,280 Speaker 3: and debunk and say that that's just what you want 1790 01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:05,240 Speaker 3: to believe. That's not what he's doing, because do you 1791 01:24:05,240 --> 01:24:08,240 Speaker 3: know how because all the animals look nice, so that's 1792 01:24:08,240 --> 01:24:10,400 Speaker 3: obviously not it. Anyway, Indebrady is going to be with 1793 01:24:10,479 --> 01:24:12,400 Speaker 3: us back from his holiday in about ten minutes time. 1794 01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:15,880 Speaker 3: It's twenty three away from seven. Ever, now, after the 1795 01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:18,639 Speaker 3: market turmoil of the past week, the question of courses, 1796 01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:20,519 Speaker 3: has the bubble burst or have we still got a 1797 01:24:20,560 --> 01:24:22,160 Speaker 3: little bit of a way to go here. Sam Dickey 1798 01:24:22,200 --> 01:24:26,000 Speaker 3: from Fisher Funds is with me. Now, Hey, Sam, Heathery, Sam, 1799 01:24:26,040 --> 01:24:27,920 Speaker 3: am I right, but you were just warning about all 1800 01:24:27,960 --> 01:24:30,320 Speaker 3: this stuff the other day and then it's happened. 1801 01:24:31,920 --> 01:24:33,800 Speaker 5: I'm not sure about warning, but you and I were 1802 01:24:33,800 --> 01:24:35,400 Speaker 5: certainly talking about Heather Yes. 1803 01:24:35,400 --> 01:24:38,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, So the specific risks that have led to 1804 01:24:38,840 --> 01:24:42,760 Speaker 3: the point that we're at what are they. 1805 01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:44,640 Speaker 5: Yes, we're outside of the unlined of the giant Japanese 1806 01:24:44,720 --> 01:24:47,920 Speaker 5: carry trade, which in plain English means borrowing at near 1807 01:24:48,040 --> 01:24:50,040 Speaker 5: zero present in Japanese yun and using that money to 1808 01:24:50,080 --> 01:24:52,760 Speaker 5: invest in risky assets around the world. Outside of that, 1809 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:55,320 Speaker 5: that were two other things happening, which caused a third 1810 01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:58,519 Speaker 5: to happen, so the US economic growth risk. The market 1811 01:24:58,640 --> 01:25:01,719 Speaker 5: was far too complacent about what investors call a soft 1812 01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:05,720 Speaker 5: economic landing. So despite the sharpest rate high cycle bi 1813 01:25:05,760 --> 01:25:09,120 Speaker 5: central banks in forty years, the US economy was expected 1814 01:25:09,160 --> 01:25:11,640 Speaker 5: to sail through, and that came unstuck. And then there 1815 01:25:11,720 --> 01:25:15,200 Speaker 5: was the AI hygh risk. And remember that one number 1816 01:25:15,240 --> 01:25:18,679 Speaker 5: to remember, ten trillion dollars. So we add up half 1817 01:25:18,680 --> 01:25:23,000 Speaker 5: a dozen of the AI darlings and their market capitalization 1818 01:25:23,080 --> 01:25:26,439 Speaker 5: or valuations had gone up by over ten trillion dollars 1819 01:25:26,439 --> 01:25:28,439 Speaker 5: in the last twenty months or so. But on the ground, 1820 01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:31,160 Speaker 5: the reality was, you know, you and I were not 1821 01:25:31,200 --> 01:25:33,920 Speaker 5: prepared to pay for that. There was no AI use 1822 01:25:33,960 --> 01:25:36,800 Speaker 5: case out there head that really caught our fancy. So 1823 01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:39,080 Speaker 5: there was this huge yawning gap between the hype and 1824 01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:44,559 Speaker 5: the reality. So those two things caused the market. A 1825 01:25:44,600 --> 01:25:46,439 Speaker 5: third thing to happen that the market was being driven 1826 01:25:46,479 --> 01:25:49,120 Speaker 5: by a very few stocks. So that's a sort of 1827 01:25:49,240 --> 01:25:53,559 Speaker 5: unhealthily narrow rally, so that those were the four risks 1828 01:25:53,560 --> 01:25:55,120 Speaker 5: that kind of came unstuck all at once. 1829 01:25:55,439 --> 01:25:58,559 Speaker 3: I see that the JP Morgan analysts reckon that, especially 1830 01:25:58,600 --> 01:26:01,160 Speaker 3: with regards to the carry trade. And we're only about 1831 01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:03,800 Speaker 3: halfway through that turmoil. What do you think, I mean, 1832 01:26:03,800 --> 01:26:06,439 Speaker 3: can you can you tell whether we're still seeing this 1833 01:26:06,520 --> 01:26:08,040 Speaker 3: happen or whether it's already done. 1834 01:26:09,360 --> 01:26:11,040 Speaker 5: There's a lot of thought gone on to that around 1835 01:26:11,040 --> 01:26:14,560 Speaker 5: the world. My thought with these things is, you know this, 1836 01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:18,240 Speaker 5: the seeds for this was sowed back in the nineteen 1837 01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:21,439 Speaker 5: eighties in Japan. I'm not saying they've been building for 1838 01:26:21,479 --> 01:26:23,920 Speaker 5: that long, but really that's where the seeds were. So 1839 01:26:24,080 --> 01:26:26,320 Speaker 5: when the bubble burst and we took sort of thirty 1840 01:26:26,439 --> 01:26:31,840 Speaker 5: years of anemic growth and anemic inflation, you know, driven 1841 01:26:31,880 --> 01:26:33,879 Speaker 5: by the scar tissue of the burst into that bubble 1842 01:26:34,160 --> 01:26:37,880 Speaker 5: and a shrinking and aging population in Japan, and you know, 1843 01:26:37,920 --> 01:26:42,200 Speaker 5: the Japanese government and the boj is being desperate to 1844 01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:46,560 Speaker 5: manufacture inflation, and finally they got an opportunity to piggyback 1845 01:26:46,600 --> 01:26:49,759 Speaker 5: on a once in forty year spike in global inflation. 1846 01:26:49,840 --> 01:26:51,600 Speaker 5: But they were just kind of a day late and 1847 01:26:51,640 --> 01:26:54,320 Speaker 5: a dollar short. So I do think when these things 1848 01:26:54,320 --> 01:26:58,879 Speaker 5: have been building for months and months, if not years, 1849 01:26:59,600 --> 01:27:02,360 Speaker 5: they're not going to unwind and sort of forty eight hours, 1850 01:27:02,360 --> 01:27:04,360 Speaker 5: So I guess I agree with that long way I've saying, 1851 01:27:04,360 --> 01:27:06,639 Speaker 5: I agree with the Japanese Jping Morman analysts. 1852 01:27:06,640 --> 01:27:09,280 Speaker 3: Interesting, okay, So I mean, what do we take out 1853 01:27:09,280 --> 01:27:12,800 Speaker 3: of this if we're investors. 1854 01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:14,360 Speaker 5: Well, four days of the lifetime in markets, but quite 1855 01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:16,040 Speaker 5: a few things have changed in each of those sort 1856 01:27:16,040 --> 01:27:19,320 Speaker 5: of three or four risks. So on New it's economic 1857 01:27:19,320 --> 01:27:23,320 Speaker 5: growth expectations. The good news is the markets expecting the 1858 01:27:23,400 --> 01:27:27,759 Speaker 5: Federal Reserve to you know, the CaAl cavalry to arrive. 1859 01:27:28,320 --> 01:27:30,519 Speaker 5: So the market was pricing two rate cuts by the 1860 01:27:30,600 --> 01:27:33,080 Speaker 5: end of the year literally seven days ago, and now 1861 01:27:33,080 --> 01:27:36,880 Speaker 5: it's pricing five rate cut and nothing happens in a vacuum. 1862 01:27:36,920 --> 01:27:39,439 Speaker 5: You know, New Zealand is now pricing another rate cut 1863 01:27:39,520 --> 01:27:40,960 Speaker 5: or two by the end of the year as well. 1864 01:27:41,439 --> 01:27:43,720 Speaker 5: And in equity markets, we've seen the frost blown out 1865 01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:47,559 Speaker 5: and economically sensitive stocks down a lot. More so that's 1866 01:27:47,800 --> 01:27:50,280 Speaker 5: that's good news. That's at least partially getting priced and 1867 01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:53,800 Speaker 5: on the AI bubble, you know, in the last week 1868 01:27:53,880 --> 01:27:56,200 Speaker 5: or so, we've seen the big tech companies come out 1869 01:27:56,240 --> 01:27:58,360 Speaker 5: with the results and they're continue to weigh and then 1870 01:27:58,439 --> 01:28:02,639 Speaker 5: plow more money into AI hardware, luck in video's computer chips. 1871 01:28:02,640 --> 01:28:06,639 Speaker 5: But the market's lost patients. They're not prepared to allow 1872 01:28:06,720 --> 01:28:10,000 Speaker 5: them to continue plowing money into this I guess this 1873 01:28:10,120 --> 01:28:13,960 Speaker 5: AI experiment with no revenue out the other side. So 1874 01:28:14,320 --> 01:28:17,639 Speaker 5: the good news is the market is forcing these companies 1875 01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:20,720 Speaker 5: to become more prudent and drive an obvious return on 1876 01:28:20,760 --> 01:28:25,160 Speaker 5: invested capital. So that yawning gap I talked about between 1877 01:28:25,360 --> 01:28:27,240 Speaker 5: kind of the hype and the capex that's going in 1878 01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:29,200 Speaker 5: there and the reality of the fact you and I 1879 01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:30,920 Speaker 5: are not prepared to pay for this yet here is 1880 01:28:31,720 --> 01:28:33,640 Speaker 5: still there. But the good news is we've seen some 1881 01:28:33,680 --> 01:28:37,080 Speaker 5: of these AI darlings correct hard so Super micro Computer, 1882 01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:43,280 Speaker 5: which builds liquid cooling systems for these very hot and 1883 01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:46,360 Speaker 5: video chips around twenty five percent of last week. And 1884 01:28:46,439 --> 01:28:50,320 Speaker 5: on the unline of the giant carry trade Japanese carry trade, 1885 01:28:50,439 --> 01:28:53,800 Speaker 5: the deputy governor of the BOJ almost came out and 1886 01:28:53,840 --> 01:28:57,120 Speaker 5: corrected as the governor, and they said they've heard the 1887 01:28:57,120 --> 01:29:00,519 Speaker 5: market's message loud and clear after the you know, the 1888 01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:04,200 Speaker 5: sharpest fall in the stock market history, and they said 1889 01:29:04,240 --> 01:29:07,200 Speaker 5: they wouldn't raise interest rates anymore until the financial turmoil 1890 01:29:07,920 --> 01:29:10,160 Speaker 5: has calmed down. So we've seen a stabilization there. So 1891 01:29:10,439 --> 01:29:12,160 Speaker 5: the good news is when the Resk's on the front 1892 01:29:12,200 --> 01:29:14,960 Speaker 5: page of every newspaper around the world, or at least 1893 01:29:14,960 --> 01:29:16,720 Speaker 5: on the front page of the business section, we can 1894 01:29:16,800 --> 01:29:19,600 Speaker 5: rest assured it's at least partially priced into assets and 1895 01:29:19,960 --> 01:29:20,639 Speaker 5: stock markets. 1896 01:29:20,960 --> 01:29:22,920 Speaker 3: Fascinating, really fascinating stuff at the moment. 1897 01:29:22,960 --> 01:29:25,599 Speaker 5: Ame, yeah, very fasting. I was going to say, one 1898 01:29:25,680 --> 01:29:27,760 Speaker 5: last thing is a really another good piece of good 1899 01:29:27,800 --> 01:29:31,400 Speaker 5: news is owning a portfolio of stocks and bonds and 1900 01:29:31,520 --> 01:29:35,160 Speaker 5: using the bonds and insurance is definitely working again after 1901 01:29:35,280 --> 01:29:38,320 Speaker 5: not working during the kind of inflation spike of twenty 1902 01:29:38,320 --> 01:29:41,679 Speaker 5: twenty two. So while equities fell sharply this week, your 1903 01:29:41,760 --> 01:29:45,000 Speaker 5: bond investments went up sharply as insurance. So that is 1904 01:29:45,040 --> 01:29:45,439 Speaker 5: good news. 1905 01:29:45,800 --> 01:29:48,160 Speaker 3: Thanks wait smart, Hey, Sam, thank you very much, appreciate it. 1906 01:29:48,160 --> 01:29:50,920 Speaker 3: As always, We'll talk to you soon. Sam Dickey, Fisher Funds. 1907 01:29:51,280 --> 01:29:53,599 Speaker 4: Heather do for ce Alan Listen I don't know if you've. 1908 01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:56,880 Speaker 3: Been following the scandal with the casketeers tip in their funerals, 1909 01:29:57,200 --> 01:30:00,320 Speaker 3: but it is wild and the latest us this has 1910 01:30:00,360 --> 01:30:02,240 Speaker 3: been going on all week. Basically, the latest is of 1911 01:30:02,280 --> 01:30:04,519 Speaker 3: the police actually knew about it and did nothing. Now, 1912 01:30:04,560 --> 01:30:06,000 Speaker 3: if you haven't caught up in it, let me catch 1913 01:30:06,000 --> 01:30:07,360 Speaker 3: you up in it. You're going to want to hear this, kay. 1914 01:30:07,600 --> 01:30:10,800 Speaker 3: So what's happened is that there are several families who've 1915 01:30:10,840 --> 01:30:14,080 Speaker 3: gone to the Herald and said that they they paid 1916 01:30:14,200 --> 01:30:18,040 Speaker 3: tip in their funerals the casketeers for zinc lined coffins, right, 1917 01:30:18,080 --> 01:30:21,320 Speaker 3: special fancy coffins, but their loved ones were put in 1918 01:30:21,360 --> 01:30:25,720 Speaker 3: rubbish bags. Now this is not the casketeers being accused here, 1919 01:30:26,200 --> 01:30:29,200 Speaker 3: it's one of their former employees, one of their former 1920 01:30:29,240 --> 01:30:33,040 Speaker 3: funeral directors now gone, Tanya Buckolitch, who was working for 1921 01:30:33,080 --> 01:30:35,479 Speaker 3: them at the time. So the families, they say that 1922 01:30:35,479 --> 01:30:38,440 Speaker 3: they'd each paid about three thousand dollars for this particularly 1923 01:30:38,479 --> 01:30:40,640 Speaker 3: flashed zinc lined coffin and they needed it to be 1924 01:30:40,720 --> 01:30:43,320 Speaker 3: flash because they were going to be interring their loved 1925 01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:45,200 Speaker 3: ones in a mausoleum, which I don't even know that 1926 01:30:45,240 --> 01:30:47,640 Speaker 3: we do in New Zealand, but evidently we do mausoleum 1927 01:30:47,640 --> 01:30:51,960 Speaker 3: at Waikumete Cemetery in Auckland. But then what happened was 1928 01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:55,080 Speaker 3: that Cyclone Gabrielle hit last year in March and the 1929 01:30:55,120 --> 01:30:58,120 Speaker 3: mausoleum was damaged and so it needed repairs, and so 1930 01:30:58,200 --> 01:31:00,879 Speaker 3: the dead people had to be disinterred, and the families 1931 01:31:00,920 --> 01:31:02,800 Speaker 3: were there for that, and they pulled the dead people out. 1932 01:31:02,840 --> 01:31:04,839 Speaker 3: And did the dead people come out and zinclined coffins 1933 01:31:04,840 --> 01:31:07,640 Speaker 3: worth three thousand dollars each, No, they came out in 1934 01:31:07,720 --> 01:31:11,720 Speaker 3: rubbish bags. And as you can imagine, deeply upsetting, like 1935 01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:13,720 Speaker 3: on a bunch of levels because this is not the 1936 01:31:13,800 --> 01:31:16,120 Speaker 3: treatment that you've paid for or expecting for somebody that 1937 01:31:16,120 --> 01:31:18,160 Speaker 3: you love deeply. But also what happened to the money, 1938 01:31:18,640 --> 01:31:20,840 Speaker 3: And then also there was a raft of other allegations 1939 01:31:20,880 --> 01:31:23,920 Speaker 3: like old mate Tania apparently demanding seven hundred and fifty 1940 01:31:23,880 --> 01:31:28,000 Speaker 3: dollars care dollars cash for post death COVID tests were 1941 01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:30,519 Speaker 3: apparently it is not a thing. And then also seven 1942 01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:32,800 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty dollars cash to pay the cemetery bill, 1943 01:31:32,920 --> 01:31:35,719 Speaker 3: which then apparently the families find out is still unpaid. 1944 01:31:36,200 --> 01:31:39,599 Speaker 3: Now the casketeers, the couple have apologized for this. They 1945 01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:42,680 Speaker 3: are obviously very upset about it. It now turns out 1946 01:31:42,680 --> 01:31:44,920 Speaker 3: that they actually told the police and laid a complaint 1947 01:31:44,920 --> 01:31:48,280 Speaker 3: against Tarnia, but the cops dropped the investigation. They had 1948 01:31:48,280 --> 01:31:52,599 Speaker 3: reported fraud allegations in March and April last year. Police 1949 01:31:52,640 --> 01:31:55,280 Speaker 3: looked into it, but they didn't find sufficient evidence, so 1950 01:31:55,280 --> 01:31:58,400 Speaker 3: they shelved the investigation. So that's not a good look, 1951 01:31:58,479 --> 01:32:02,360 Speaker 3: is hm? Yeah, I feel like there might have been evidence, 1952 01:32:02,439 --> 01:32:05,320 Speaker 3: Like the lack of a coffin feels like evidence. I 1953 01:32:05,360 --> 01:32:09,800 Speaker 3: don't know. Anyway, she's now not working obviously at Tippery Funerals. 1954 01:32:09,880 --> 01:32:11,839 Speaker 3: It hasn't been at her house for two months apparently, 1955 01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:13,400 Speaker 3: and obviously is not going to be on the show 1956 01:32:13,439 --> 01:32:16,519 Speaker 3: again quarter two. Look, here's the reality when it comes 1957 01:32:16,560 --> 01:32:18,920 Speaker 3: to business funding.

And around 1989 01:33:37,200 --> 01:33:40,160 Speaker 8: most days. My son came out with me. It was brilliant. 1990 01:33:40,160 --> 01:33:42,439 Speaker 8: It's just gorgeous, same little fishing village we've been going 1991 01:33:42,439 --> 01:33:46,120 Speaker 8: to for nearly twenty years and absolutely nothing much changes. 1992 01:33:46,160 --> 01:33:46,640 Speaker 8: I love it. 1993 01:33:46,760 --> 01:33:48,960 Speaker 3: Oh nice, that sounds awesome. Hey, I see it was 1994 01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:52,080 Speaker 3: actually a reasonably successful night in terms of those those 1995 01:33:52,200 --> 01:33:53,160 Speaker 3: rallies and riots. 1996 01:33:55,080 --> 01:33:57,679 Speaker 8: Yes, so the police are very very pleased this morning 1997 01:33:57,760 --> 01:34:01,360 Speaker 8: here across England because all of talk yesterday had been 1998 01:34:01,479 --> 01:34:05,400 Speaker 8: of one hundred planned protests by the far right. And look, 1999 01:34:05,439 --> 01:34:07,800 Speaker 8: we've seen all the rioting of the last week or so, 2000 01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:11,160 Speaker 8: and all of the arrests and the dreadful, appalling behavior, 2001 01:34:11,520 --> 01:34:16,479 Speaker 8: the racist abuse of many many minority communities in the UK, 2002 01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:19,920 Speaker 8: people messaging me yesterday saying should I come to work 2003 01:34:20,160 --> 01:34:22,840 Speaker 8: where a hit job is? You know, just we've seen 2004 01:34:23,120 --> 01:34:26,479 Speaker 8: the absolute worst of Britain in the last week. And 2005 01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:28,559 Speaker 8: what we saw last night I think was the best. 2006 01:34:28,920 --> 01:34:31,960 Speaker 8: People turned out and they turned out to counter protest. 2007 01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:34,559 Speaker 8: So in all of these towns and cities where they 2008 01:34:34,560 --> 01:34:36,240 Speaker 8: felt that the far right were going to turn up 2009 01:34:36,280 --> 01:34:40,439 Speaker 8: and wreck places and burn businesses and hurt families, pens 2010 01:34:40,479 --> 01:34:44,000 Speaker 8: of thousands of people turned out. They lined the mosques, 2011 01:34:44,040 --> 01:34:49,120 Speaker 8: they stood outside asylum seeking centers, they stood outside immigration lawyers' offices, 2012 01:34:49,479 --> 01:34:52,760 Speaker 8: and everything passed off peacefully. There were three arrests in 2013 01:34:52,800 --> 01:34:55,880 Speaker 8: the town of Northampton last night for public disorder and 2014 01:34:55,920 --> 01:34:58,360 Speaker 8: that was pretty much is so. I think the police 2015 01:34:58,360 --> 01:35:00,960 Speaker 8: will be hoping that that is now the end of 2016 01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:03,200 Speaker 8: all of the awful rioting that we've seen. 2017 01:35:03,640 --> 01:35:05,719 Speaker 3: Do you think it's going to change the government's approach, 2018 01:35:05,760 --> 01:35:08,439 Speaker 3: the government's policies at all in terms of asylum seek 2019 01:35:08,439 --> 01:35:09,559 Speaker 3: as migrants and so on. 2020 01:35:11,400 --> 01:35:13,639 Speaker 8: No, not at all. I don't think anything is going 2021 01:35:13,640 --> 01:35:15,880 Speaker 8: to change. I think we've had four weeks of cure 2022 01:35:15,960 --> 01:35:18,479 Speaker 8: starmer and I think in all honesty what people should 2023 01:35:18,520 --> 01:35:21,439 Speaker 8: be thanking their lucky stars right now is that the 2024 01:35:21,560 --> 01:35:24,640 Speaker 8: UK has a prime minister who has a background in 2025 01:35:24,720 --> 01:35:28,600 Speaker 8: law and was the chief prosecutor here. So there was 2026 01:35:28,640 --> 01:35:31,960 Speaker 8: a message that went out yesterday very very clearly from 2027 01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:35,400 Speaker 8: the courts and the judges. Three of the rioters from 2028 01:35:35,439 --> 01:35:39,439 Speaker 8: Southport got seven years jail between them yesterday one guy 2029 01:35:39,479 --> 01:35:42,120 Speaker 8: got two and a half years for punching a police officer. 2030 01:35:42,439 --> 01:35:44,280 Speaker 8: And you think back, you know, in the last few 2031 01:35:44,320 --> 01:35:48,000 Speaker 8: governments we've had a hedge fund manager in Rishie Sunek. 2032 01:35:48,040 --> 01:35:50,800 Speaker 8: We've had Liz Truss, let's just not even go there, 2033 01:35:51,000 --> 01:35:54,120 Speaker 8: Boris Johnson, a failed journalist. You've actually got a guy 2034 01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:56,960 Speaker 8: now who's a serious man, who wants to work for 2035 01:35:57,000 --> 01:36:00,240 Speaker 8: the country and as a background in prosecuting criminals. You know, 2036 01:36:00,400 --> 01:36:03,280 Speaker 8: this week could have been far worse had any of 2037 01:36:03,280 --> 01:36:06,400 Speaker 8: the other been in power. But I don't think anything 2038 01:36:06,479 --> 01:36:08,320 Speaker 8: is going to change. And I think, look, there is 2039 01:36:08,360 --> 01:36:12,719 Speaker 8: a conversation to be had about immigration, but abusing people 2040 01:36:12,760 --> 01:36:15,000 Speaker 8: who are out there working and paying tax I mean, 2041 01:36:15,040 --> 01:36:18,639 Speaker 8: it broke my heart yesterday to see people posting messages 2042 01:36:18,680 --> 01:36:22,599 Speaker 8: on social media, doctors and nurses saying we're thinking about 2043 01:36:22,680 --> 01:36:26,439 Speaker 8: leaving this country and why because they've had racist abuse 2044 01:36:26,520 --> 01:36:29,200 Speaker 8: off the scale. And this is I'm just going to 2045 01:36:29,240 --> 01:36:33,560 Speaker 8: say it, Heather, this has been people have been empowered 2046 01:36:34,080 --> 01:36:37,360 Speaker 8: to speak in such racist fashion because of some of 2047 01:36:37,400 --> 01:36:41,719 Speaker 8: the poor leadership and really poor politicians and journalists who've 2048 01:36:41,760 --> 01:36:43,760 Speaker 8: been peddling an awful lot of this racism in the 2049 01:36:43,840 --> 01:36:44,439 Speaker 8: last decade. 2050 01:36:45,120 --> 01:36:47,519 Speaker 3: Interesting. Hey, Inda, thank you, it's really nice to have 2051 01:36:47,560 --> 01:36:49,240 Speaker 3: you back. I've actually missed having you on it. It's 2052 01:36:49,280 --> 01:36:52,400 Speaker 3: Into Brady now UK correspondent either away from seven. 2053 01:36:52,720 --> 01:36:56,080 Speaker 4: Whether it's macro micro or just playing economics. 2054 01:36:56,120 --> 01:36:59,120 Speaker 1: It's all on the business now with Hitther, duplicy Ellen 2055 01:36:59,240 --> 01:37:02,040 Speaker 1: and my HR the HR platform for s. 2056 01:37:05,560 --> 01:37:09,040 Speaker 3: I don't agree with Ender, Heather. Look, Heather Ender is 2057 01:37:09,080 --> 01:37:13,320 Speaker 3: a fanboy of Keir Starmer. Heather, you might not be woke, 2058 01:37:13,400 --> 01:37:15,800 Speaker 3: but that blokes et cetera, et cetera. Look, you got 2059 01:37:15,800 --> 01:37:17,439 Speaker 3: to have listen. You've got to have friends who have 2060 01:37:17,479 --> 01:37:20,000 Speaker 3: different points of view so that you can hear. You know, 2061 01:37:20,080 --> 01:37:24,599 Speaker 3: you can expose yourself to everything ends that friend. So 2062 01:37:24,800 --> 01:37:26,439 Speaker 3: listen to the Wellington I need to tell you what's been 2063 01:37:26,479 --> 01:37:28,479 Speaker 3: going on Wellington. I said I would tell you this earlier. 2064 01:37:28,520 --> 01:37:33,439 Speaker 3: The transport thing. So probably the craziest transport story out 2065 01:37:33,439 --> 01:37:36,880 Speaker 3: of Wellington day. And let's be honest, there are a lot. 2066 01:37:37,240 --> 01:37:39,920 Speaker 3: So this really is quite special. Is what the cycle 2067 01:37:39,960 --> 01:37:43,280 Speaker 3: ways did to the fire brigade. Now, if you know Wellington, 2068 01:37:43,320 --> 01:37:46,040 Speaker 3: you know that there's the Central City Fire Station is 2069 01:37:46,040 --> 01:37:48,920 Speaker 3: at the bottom of Cambridge Terrace, just there by Courtney Place, Okay, 2070 01:37:49,320 --> 01:37:51,280 Speaker 3: and so what the Wellington City Council did was they 2071 01:37:51,360 --> 01:37:54,000 Speaker 3: put a cycle away there and they started mucking around 2072 01:37:54,040 --> 01:37:59,920 Speaker 3: with the roads around there. Now, one day the fire 2073 01:38:00,080 --> 01:38:03,439 Speaker 3: brigade decided to respond to a fire and they went 2074 01:38:03,640 --> 01:38:05,720 Speaker 3: up Kent Terrace. You know how Kent. You know where 2075 01:38:05,760 --> 01:38:07,960 Speaker 3: the Basin Reserve is. You go up Kent Terrace, you 2076 01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:10,439 Speaker 3: go around the Basin Reserve, you come down Cambridge Terrace. 2077 01:38:10,479 --> 01:38:13,240 Speaker 3: The two terraces run parallel to each other, right, and 2078 01:38:13,280 --> 01:38:15,400 Speaker 3: they've got a big traffic, a big island full of 2079 01:38:15,439 --> 01:38:18,040 Speaker 3: trees and statues and stuff in the middle, and they 2080 01:38:18,040 --> 01:38:20,920 Speaker 3: have like two or three little places where you could 2081 01:38:20,960 --> 01:38:23,479 Speaker 3: do a U turn and come from one from one 2082 01:38:23,680 --> 01:38:26,120 Speaker 3: terrace to the other terraces, right from Cambridge to Kent 2083 01:38:26,200 --> 01:38:28,000 Speaker 3: and Kent to Cambridge. Just so on So one day 2084 01:38:28,040 --> 01:38:30,320 Speaker 3: there's a fire and the fire brigade head off and 2085 01:38:30,400 --> 01:38:32,400 Speaker 3: like going up Kent Terrace and they're like, we're just 2086 01:38:32,439 --> 01:38:34,240 Speaker 3: gonna turn down that little U turn thing, I'm gon 2087 01:38:34,280 --> 01:38:36,280 Speaker 3: and go down Cambridge Terrace and that'll get us there 2088 01:38:36,280 --> 01:38:38,360 Speaker 3: really fast. And than they got there and the council 2089 01:38:38,360 --> 01:38:43,400 Speaker 3: will put planter boxes there and they like what And 2090 01:38:43,439 --> 01:38:46,479 Speaker 3: so they had to go all the way up, all 2091 01:38:46,640 --> 01:38:50,240 Speaker 3: the way up Kent Terrace turn around at the Basin Reserve. 2092 01:38:50,280 --> 01:38:52,320 Speaker 3: And if you've ever done that, it's like pulling teeth. 2093 01:38:52,400 --> 01:38:54,240 Speaker 3: It takes you forever and they came all the way 2094 01:38:54,240 --> 01:38:56,040 Speaker 3: down Cambridge Terraces just to be able to get off 2095 01:38:56,040 --> 01:38:57,280 Speaker 3: to the thing anyway. So then they wrote to the 2096 01:38:57,320 --> 01:38:59,599 Speaker 3: council and they was like they were like, guys, this 2097 01:38:59,680 --> 01:39:02,559 Speaker 3: is these planter boxes have been there for two months, 2098 01:39:02,600 --> 01:39:05,160 Speaker 3: get rid of them. This is September. In October they 2099 01:39:05,240 --> 01:39:07,720 Speaker 3: email them like, hey, it's now three months since we 2100 01:39:07,840 --> 01:39:10,000 Speaker 3: flagged this with you as urgent. Get rid of them. 2101 01:39:10,320 --> 01:39:12,639 Speaker 3: Finally the council gets rid of them in November one 2102 01:39:12,720 --> 01:39:16,639 Speaker 3: day four months later. Ay Wellington City Council and sorry 2103 01:39:17,080 --> 01:39:17,599 Speaker 3: senior time. 2104 01:39:17,600 --> 01:39:20,000 Speaker 26: Oh it's just possibly an I ironically appropriate choice give 2105 01:39:20,040 --> 01:39:21,599 Speaker 26: what we're just talking about six months in a leaky 2106 01:39:21,640 --> 01:39:23,840 Speaker 26: boat to play us out tonight. I actually picked the 2107 01:39:23,920 --> 01:39:26,160 Speaker 26: song before the news about the theory. Okay, this is 2108 01:39:26,439 --> 01:39:28,400 Speaker 26: not roughing on that. It's because this is the song 2109 01:39:28,479 --> 01:39:32,200 Speaker 26: by split ends that Immigration Minister Tony Burke learned the 2110 01:39:32,200 --> 01:39:33,920 Speaker 26: word altad or from. So I thought I got'd be 2111 01:39:33,920 --> 01:39:35,040 Speaker 26: a nice thing there to end the show with. I 2112 01:39:35,040 --> 01:39:37,360 Speaker 26: didn't realize I was going to cause a crash and 2113 01:39:37,760 --> 01:39:39,080 Speaker 26: cook straight, but there you go. 2114 01:39:39,200 --> 01:39:42,240 Speaker 3: Because literally we are dealing with six months in a 2115 01:39:42,280 --> 01:39:44,120 Speaker 3: leaky boat. Now because they rammed it so much. It's 2116 01:39:44,120 --> 01:39:45,000 Speaker 3: got a whole haven't they. 2117 01:39:45,479 --> 01:39:48,200 Speaker 26: Well yeah, hopefully it doesn't take six months effects. But 2118 01:39:48,240 --> 01:39:49,200 Speaker 26: at the same time I want them to do a 2119 01:39:49,240 --> 01:39:50,120 Speaker 26: better job of it. 2120 01:39:50,120 --> 01:39:53,120 Speaker 3: It's good, it's key.
