1 00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:04,840 Speaker 1: The only drive show you can trust to ask the questions, 2 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:09,480 Speaker 1: get the answers, find a fack and give the analysis. 3 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 1: Heather Duplicy, Ellen, Drive with One, New Zealand and the 4 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: Power of Satellite Mobile News Talks V. 5 00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:20,600 Speaker 2: Afternoon. Coming up on the show today, the Public Service 6 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 2: Commissioner on the twist in the primary teachers pay dispute. 7 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,759 Speaker 2: The Manufacturer's Association on the news that Heinz Watties is 8 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 2: cutting and cutting big time in New Zealand. And the 9 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 2: brisco Is boss Rod Duke on his results in whether 10 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 2: Iran has got him worried at all? 11 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 3: Heather Duplicy Allen. 12 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 2: Well, I think we can quite accurately use the word 13 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,480 Speaker 2: brilliant to describe the latest move from the government's man 14 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 2: in the primary teachers pay negotiations. So Brian Roach, the 15 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 2: Public Services Commissioner, has today gone around the union and 16 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 2: offered a pay increase of four point seven percent of 17 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 2: primary teachers who are not in the union the first 18 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 2: chunk of the pay rise if they agree to it. 19 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 2: The first chunk of the pay rise will kick in 20 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 2: in nineteen days and the next chunk will kick in 21 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 2: in January next year. Now this is clever because this 22 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 2: undermines the union because the union hasn't settled yet have 23 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 2: they For the last nine months, they have refused to 24 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 2: settle their pay agreement until the treaty is recognized in 25 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 2: the teachers contracts and until the government pays teachers more 26 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: for their overnight camp allowance. For God's sake, there must 27 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 2: be and I am basing this on the text traffic 28 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 2: that we get to this show, there must be huge 29 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 2: numbers of teachers growing increasingly frustrated with the union, getting 30 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 2: hung up on ideology over pay while they lose up 31 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 2: to seventy six dollars a week in income that they 32 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 2: are not getting because the negotiations are not wrapped up. 33 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 2: So the pressure is now on the NZDI big time, 34 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 2: isn't it, because feasibly these teachers who are members can 35 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 2: simply do what ten thousand of their colleagues have already done, 36 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: which is to either not join the union or leave 37 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 2: the union, and they can get their pay rise faster 38 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 2: without the union than with the union. Now, personally, I 39 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 2: love that this is happening because it became obvious to 40 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 2: me twenty years ago as a junior reporter at TV 41 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: and Z that unions were not much used to me 42 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 2: back then, and what's happened since with unions is is 43 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: much worse because they are now actively holding up pay 44 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 2: negotiations for really stupid reasons. So brilliant move from the 45 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 2: Public Services Commissioner. Can't wait to see whether this forces 46 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 2: the union to wrap up the paytalks to save themselves 47 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 2: from an exodus of clever teachers together do for see 48 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: Ellen the text number, standard text fees apply and Brian 49 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,519 Speaker 2: Roach is going to be with us after five. Now 50 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 2: it looks like the government moves to protect the leafy 51 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 2: suburbs in Auckland from densification may have actually backfired. So 52 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 2: it was a council meeting in Auckland yesterday and there 53 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 2: they voted to increase the densification or at least prefer 54 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 2: the densification in suburbs that are within ten kilometers of 55 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 2: the city center. Act Party leader David Seymour is with us. Now, Hi, David, hey, 56 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 2: is that you will read of the situation as well? 57 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 4: Not really, I mean you take a few steps back. 58 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 4: We had a situation where the entire city was going 59 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 4: to be densified at three three story homes per section 60 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 4: under the Labor National Deal. Of twenty twenty one, we 61 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 4: have been speaking for ACT campaigns and stopped that. We 62 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 4: then said, look, you can take it away, but you've 63 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 4: got to have the same number of housing density. They 64 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 4: showed us the maps of what that looked like. We said, no, 65 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 4: we're now taking it back to one point six million, 66 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 4: and we'd like them to show us what that looks like. 67 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 4: But ultimately, you know, we will get rid of this 68 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 4: incursion into people's lives and suburbs because if we want 69 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 4: to build more houses, which I think we should, there 70 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 4: are many other problems besides having wars over the zoning. 71 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 2: Okay, so it looks to me like, tell me if 72 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 2: this is your understanding, because it is very hard sometimes 73 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 2: to get a handle on what is going on with council. 74 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 2: But my understanding is they passed a resolution yesterday in 75 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 2: which they put a pin in the city center, they 76 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 2: draw a circle ten case around it, and everything within 77 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 2: that is where the densification will be weighted to happen. 78 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 2: Is that great? 79 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 5: No? 80 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 3: No, no no. 81 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 4: They've established a set of five principles and they're going 82 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 4: to use those principles in order to create a map 83 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 4: that will reach the one point six million capacity. That 84 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 4: the government is proposing to require by passing a parliamentary law. 85 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 4: Once I've done that and we get a sense of 86 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 4: what that looks like, then people will be able to 87 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,039 Speaker 4: have their say. The submissions that have already been made 88 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 4: through will will remain live and go to independent hearings panels. 89 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 4: So they haven't made a decision that look ten kilometer 90 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 4: radius there it is. They've given a set of principles 91 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 4: that will guide what they're going to do in order 92 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 4: to achieve that one point six million target. 93 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 2: And one of the principles is that the densification is 94 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 2: weighted to within the ten case, isn't it. 95 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,039 Speaker 4: Yeah, Weighted is probably a good way of thinking about it. 96 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 2: Which means that it's going to happen in epsom mate 97 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 2: before it happens in Pooka Koe. 98 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 4: Well, if you want to compare Epsom to pook A Koe, sure, 99 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 4: but there's a lot of other things you've got to 100 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 4: think about. For example, if you're going to have an 101 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 4: emphasis around train stations, you'll know poky better than me, 102 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 4: But I think it has access to trains and so 103 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 4: therefore you might get some densification there, whereas if you 104 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 4: don't have a train station and a part of EPSOM 105 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 4: you might not. So the point is that. 106 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 2: You have a lot of train stations and EPSOM don't you. 107 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 4: Well, we do, and you know, this whole thing is 108 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 4: a bit more complicated than being for or against intensification 109 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 4: and one electorate, for example, I'm on the record saying 110 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 4: we should have intensification where it makes sense, and train 111 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 4: stations and transit oriented development are a. 112 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 6: Way to do that. 113 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 4: So if you look at the new Mangaphile station being developed, 114 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 4: I mean a huge amount of lands just being completely 115 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 4: cleared for the construction that will all be intensified, and 116 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 4: so it should be around what will become a very 117 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 4: major train station, a kind of central hub of the 118 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 4: city rail link. So you know, it's not as simple 119 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 4: as it's all going to be in your electric mate. 120 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 4: It's going to be a long process. These plans won't 121 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 4: be finalized until well into next year. What I've done 122 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 4: is stop the three to three story thing and stop 123 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 4: the two million thing, and we'll keep going if we 124 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 4: don't get to a date with one. 125 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 2: It was argued to me by somebody who does understand 126 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 2: what is going on here quite deeply that the one 127 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 2: point six so you got rid of two million. Now 128 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 2: we've got one point six with a waiting towards the 129 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 2: ten k's around the city center that arguably, apparently is 130 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 2: worse for your electorate than two million just spread out 131 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 2: across the city. 132 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 4: Well it depends on how they balance those five principles. 133 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 4: So yeah, that could in theory be true. However, this 134 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 4: is why I've said all along, we've got to actually 135 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 4: see the plans. And then, by the way, I opposed 136 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 4: or Wellington interfering in Auckland from the get go in 137 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 4: twenty twenty one, I wish we weren't here. But now 138 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 4: that Auckland is setting these these principles, sorry, now that 139 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 4: Wellington is setting these edicts like one point six million 140 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 4: or two million or whatever, I think it's vital that 141 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 4: before we vote in Wellington we know what it looks like. 142 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 4: And that's why I've said, you've got to give us 143 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 4: a description. So yeah, that person could in theory be correct. 144 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 4: But I'm saying unfortunately, even though I hate Wellington interference 145 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 4: in anything, we need to see the details and see 146 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 4: what the truth of that is. And that is what 147 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 4: the government has committed to. Well has asked the Council 148 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 4: for I hope that they're going to be civil and 149 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 4: collegial and actually provide information to inform a parliamentary vote, 150 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 4: which is what a council and a sort of mature 151 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 4: democracy should do, and then we'll have better answers to 152 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 4: your question. I wish I had them now, but like 153 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 4: I say, I also wish that Labor National hadn't gone 154 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 4: down this track in twenty one. 155 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, David, best of luck with it, and thank you 156 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 2: very much for your time. That's David sim Or, the 157 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 2: act party leader by the way, that I'll tell you 158 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 2: what we've got Morris Williamson on the show in the huddle, 159 00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 2: so stand by because he knows heaps about this and 160 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 2: ware we'll get him to clarify what he understands. That 161 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: council meeting yesterday, though, sounded like an absolute hope. So 162 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 2: there was a recidibus public submitter who basically kicked everything 163 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 2: off by playing a song from nineteen sixty two about 164 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 2: the development of tacky little houses. And then the counselors 165 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 2: started debating various motions. Well, I think they debated largely 166 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 2: this motion about the ten ks. Six hours into it, 167 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 2: Wayne Brown's impatients got the better of him, and he 168 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 2: interrupted with a for f's sake, get on with it. 169 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 2: Christine Fletcher, who he aimed at, said she was used 170 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 2: to the mayor speaking to her with that language on 171 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 2: a regular basis.

A bit of a reshuffle from Chris Hopkins 343 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 2: by the way today to dole out the portfolios that 344 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 2: have been held by a couple of departing MPs Penny 345 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 2: He Nada and Duncan Web, the biggest loser in the 346 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 2: reshuffle is Willow gene Prime. She's lost education now. She 347 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 2: will have lost education because nobody's taking her seriously in 348 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 2: education anymore, because she remember, she attacked the government's NCEEA changes, 349 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 2: and then we found out, well, she was attacking something 350 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 2: she'd been invited to a briefing on, and she hadn't 351 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 2: accepted the briefing, and so the whole thing just became 352 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 2: a shamozzle for her. Anyway, the portfolio now goes to 353 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 2: Ginny Anderson. Barry Soper will be with us on politics 354 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 2: in ten minutes.

Here's the White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt. 359 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 5: The stated objectives for Operation etpic Fury remain the same. 360 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 5: Destroy the terrorist regime's ballistic missiles, raise their Iranian missile 361 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 5: industry to the ground, ensure their terrorist proxies can no 362 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:23,120 Speaker 5: longer destabilize the region, and ensure that Iran never obtains 363 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:24,119 Speaker 5: a nuclear weapon. 364 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 2: And of course, there's been more bombing in Tehran, with 365 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,439 Speaker 2: people fleeing the city. 366 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 16: Sometimes we felt like we're dying, but it was nearby. 367 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 14: Just a lot of bombing, a lot of fire, even 368 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 14: around five hundred meters around our house, something like some 369 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:42,120 Speaker 14: bomb job. 370 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 2: And finally, sports commentators Stephen A. Smith has ruled himself 371 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 2: out of the twenty twenty eight US presidential race. Stephen 372 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 2: A is best known for yelling and screaming on esp 373 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:53,360 Speaker 2: and broadcasts. 374 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: His very first move as the executive was to Sylam Mottumn, who. 375 00:17:59,400 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 7: Was on. 376 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,680 Speaker 2: He also said earlier this year that he was keen 377 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:05,919 Speaker 2: on a tilted the White House. But then Stephen I 378 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 2: was recently on Sean Hannity's podcast and it seems he's 379 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 2: changed his mind. 380 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 3: I don't think you're running, am I right? I don't 381 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 3: think I'm running either, because I gotta give him my money. 382 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 3: You don't, Yeah, you want to give them money?

Hey, 394 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 2: how bad is the air travel and the delays with 395 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 2: you guys? 396 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 11: It is terrible.

The website app 405 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 11: was paused last month. Jet Blue and a number of 406 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 11: airlines are issuing warnings saying that your wait time could 407 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 11: for pre check customers could be two or three hours 408 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 11: or longer. And it's happening at an awful time heather 409 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 11: around here, because spring break is happening over the next 410 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 11: couple of weeks for families, and a lot of those 411 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 11: kids in college are trying to get home, and they 412 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 11: may have to find another way if they don't want 413 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 11: to waste a good chunk of their time. 414 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 2: Think, hey, listen, what have they found by going into 415 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 2: Epstein's runs. 416 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 11: Well, that's what we're trying to find out.

And now that allegation is unverified, but it's also, 423 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 11: I guess not clear to what extent it had been 424 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 11: investigated originally, And now there's renewed interest in Epstein's So 425 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 11: the criminal investigation is now looking into possible illegal activities 426 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 11: surrounding the time of the ranch before he died in 427 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:18,879 Speaker 11: twenty nineteen and he owned it. 428 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 2: Does it feel to you, I mean, I realized that 429 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 2: there's some of the stuff that has gone on here 430 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 2: is clearly illegal. Some of the stuff is clearly quite serious. 431 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 2: But it feels to me like we are taking absolutely 432 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 2: every allegation on the same level when some of them 433 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 2: just sound like they might be a bit nutty. 434 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 3: I agree. 435 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 2: You know, like every email has the same way as 436 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 2: every other email, do you know what I mean? 437 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 6: Right? 438 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 3: No, No, I do. 439 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 11: And you keep thinking, well, Okay, something's going to come 440 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 11: of this.

Now over in Australia, he has 465 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 2: an update from Australia for you. Matt Canavan has been 466 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 2: selected their Leader of the Nationals this morning on account 467 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 2: of David, the previous leader, having quit yesterday. He's from Queensland. 468 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 2: He gave his pitch to reporters. He said, we need 469 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 2: to have more more Australian everything. We need more Australian babies. 470 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 2: We need more Australian humor, more Australian jokes. We need 471 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 2: more Australian barbecues, sometimes often fueled by fossil fuels. We 472 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 2: need more Australian everything. We don't need to look overseas 473 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 2: for our solutions, which I feel like is going to 474 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 2: be popular. I feel like if you stand there in 475 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 2: any country and just say you need more of the 476 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 2: stuff that your country produces, including babies, it's smart strategy. 477 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 2: Smart strategy from Matt at the outset. Two more. Now 478 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 2: why I corrected Darcy's numbers on the Iranian football players 479 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 2: before is because two more defected overnight and stayed in Australia. 480 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 2: The rest have now flown home. Sydney morning Herald put 481 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,120 Speaker 2: a reporter on the same flight as those ladies out 482 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 2: to Kuala Lumpur. Porter reckons that at the airport in Sydney, 483 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 2: while they were waiting, one more player was still considering 484 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 2: staying and this does match with what the Minister Burke 485 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 2: has been saying. One more player was considering it. They 486 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 2: were having last minute conversations with their family, presumably back 487 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 2: in Iran, as to whether they wanted to do it 488 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 2: or not. But in the end they got on the flight. 489 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 2: All women began to cry and embraced each other as 490 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 2: they were on their flight, finding their seats in economy class. 491 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,640 Speaker 2: The journalists try to approach a bunch of them. They signaled. 492 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 2: In some cases they said, in some cases they couldn't 493 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 2: talk to her, gesturing to the chaperones who were also 494 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,159 Speaker 2: on the flight. When they then landed in Kuala Lumpur, 495 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 2: they were escorted from their plane by an Iranian official 496 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 2: who met them at the airport and that was basically 497 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 2: the end of any chance of escape. Seventeen away from five, Barrisopa's. 498 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: Next politics with centrics credit, check your customers and get 499 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 1: payments Sertaday. 500 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 2: Sir Brian Roach on what he's doing with the primary 501 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,880 Speaker 2: teachers after five o'clock.

It concerns the twelve to seventeen year 509 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 17: olds and that was one of the big revelations in 510 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 17: the COVID inquiry yesterday that the Health Ministry of Health 511 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 17: were warned that there was an increased danger of myo 512 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 17: charditis for kids under seventeen and yet that was never 513 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 17: passed on to the public. Now, Peter said the revelation 514 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:23,200 Speaker 17: that this advice wasn't shed with the public warranted further 515 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 17: investigation and he would like to see a select committee 516 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 17: having a look at that, which could be the case. 517 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,919 Speaker 17: But what do you do at the end say somebody 518 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 17: failed and somebody did. The public certainly didn't know the risk. Yesterday, 519 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 17: Winston Peters says they were screaming out in the house 520 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 17: that both are Cheverril and Chris Hipkins, that they didn't know. 521 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 17: They just and he said he proved in the House 522 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 17: this afternoon that they were telling Porky's Peter's questions questioned 523 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 17: the Health Minister Simon Brown about Simon Brown about it 524 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 17: about the two mandates staying in place even though the 525 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 17: ministers or warned their danger for the. 526 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,199 Speaker 18: Young yea they did two dose vaccine mandates remain in 527 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,120 Speaker 18: place for twelve to seven year olds, despite former Minister's 528 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 18: Crucificins and Alzeberral having vented vives of concerns about mandating 529 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 18: the COVID nineteen double dose vaccine for this age group. 530 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 19: Mister speaker, yes, I'm advised the vaccine mandates in workplace 531 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,639 Speaker 19: settings for the age group remained in place until late 532 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,719 Speaker 19: January twenty twenty two, and that COVID nineteen vaccine certificate 533 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,719 Speaker 19: requirements for this age group remained in place until April 534 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 19: twenty twenty two. 535 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 17: But as it turns out, I actually went to try 536 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 17: and find out how many kids under the age of 537 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 17: seventeen got my cardolotis as a result of taking the vaccine. 538 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 17: It would seem maybe twenty got it and parents should 539 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 17: have been informed, There's no doubt about that. And if 540 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 17: veryl and Hipkins had the information, they most certainly should 541 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 17: have made that public. 542 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 2: So then the ministry should have because if you remember 543 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 2: at the time. 544 00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,080 Speaker 17: Don't say the ministry did hand on the material to 545 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 17: the public to the ministers, but the ministers never made 546 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 17: it public. 547 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 2: Somebody should have made it public though, because if you remember. 548 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 17: The pou have made it public. 549 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,920 Speaker 2: There were real concerns from a small group of people 550 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 2: in this country about taking the vaccine, and Jacinda kept 551 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 2: on saying it's safe, it's safe, it's safe, it's safe, 552 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 2: it's safe. Right now, what we find out is actually 553 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 2: they knew it wasn't safe to take two doses for 554 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,679 Speaker 2: young people. I feel like there is a group of 555 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 2: people who are actually owed an apology by the rest 556 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,640 Speaker 2: of us. We called them conspiracy theorists and belittled them, 557 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 2: and in the end they've actually been proven to be 558 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 2: at least partially right. And as far as their allegations 559 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 2: that they were that that the information they were being 560 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 2: given was not the complete truth, they have been proven right. 561 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 17: Yes, well indeed, and you know the fact that even 562 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 17: a handful of people got mo chodeis is an indictment 563 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 17: certainly on the government that was handling the whole COVID response. 564 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 2: Now in New Zealand's back in the center of the debate, 565 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:56,199 Speaker 2: aren't they. 566 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 17: Well, yes, there's there's the debate and the ayses when 567 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,959 Speaker 17: the airline goes through a tough time that you know 568 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 17: that appalling result it had losing so much money in 569 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 17: the six months. Essentially, Winston Peters, he's completely ruled out 570 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 17: a call by David Seymour to privatize the airline. It's 571 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 17: been done before, and of course it was brought back 572 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 17: by the government. The point that Winston Peters made because 573 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 17: he hates public assets being sold, he said they should 574 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:32,640 Speaker 17: never be sold the shares. He said, basically the airline 575 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 17: was a critical utility for a country like New Zealand. 576 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 17: It's our face to the rest of the world and. 577 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 2: I tend to agree with that. 578 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 17: I mean, every country should have a national airline and 579 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 17: you know the quoru on the wings and what have you. 580 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 17: That is New Zealand. And I've got to say, having 581 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:56,679 Speaker 17: traveled frequently abroad seeing Air New Zealand planes sitting on 582 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 17: the tarmac overseas, it fills me with a bit of 583 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 17: price that here we are there. 584 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 2: Now, what do you think of Brian Roach's move? Very clever, 585 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 2: isn't it? Isn't it? 586 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 17: It's very clever. And I see the unions talking about 587 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 17: taking legal action and they may have an avenue there 588 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 17: because there is a collective agreement covering teachers, but those 589 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 17: outside the collective agreement I think that's about ten thousand 590 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 17: primary teachers. They are not part of the union. Therefore, 591 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 17: Brian Roach, and he's really taken his job very seriously 592 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 17: because public service commissioners normally aren't aren't in the firing 593 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,719 Speaker 17: line of negotiating pay settlements. You normally have the heads 594 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 17: of departments that do it with the union. 595 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 2: He took that role over last year though, and may remember. 596 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 17: Yes, and very much so. I mean to talk about 597 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 17: must be a headache for him doing this job. But look, 598 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:58,719 Speaker 17: he's he's certainly attempting to undermine the power of the union. 599 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 17: There's no doubt about that, and I know you're going 600 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 17: to be talking to them, but it is a very 601 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:07,239 Speaker 17: shrewd move because it says to ten thousand teachers you 602 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 17: can be paid an additional I think it's about seventy 603 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 17: seventy sixty or seventy bucks fifty to seventy six dollars 604 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 17: a week now within a few weeks, whereas the rest 605 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 17: of them because they want the treaty recognized in the 606 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 17: pay agreement, which is patently absurd. And I'm sure there's 607 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 17: many trade union teachers that would find that absurd as well. 608 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 17: And just to your point in your introduction, Heather, that 609 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 17: trade unions, I mean I was a member of a 610 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 17: trade union, the Journalists Union, for many years when I 611 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 17: was younger. In fact, I was an official in the 612 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 17: trade union. 613 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 2: Got out of it. 614 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 17: No, I am absolutely proud of it because we have 615 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 17: pain conditions that journalists. When I started many years ago, 616 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 17: they were very very poorly and we were related to janitors. 617 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 2: And in terms, is it that much different now? 618 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 17: Yes, it is. I think journalists are much better paid. 619 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 2: Well, Barry So I see I was looking at Radio 620 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 2: New Zealand today they've got a headline just into Ardurn 621 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 2: among the star studed Auckland Writers' Festival lineup. Why aren't 622 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 2: you in the headline, Barry? Why is radio news? Why 623 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 2: did they not say Barry soaper studied Auckland Writers' Festival 624 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 2: line up? 625 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 17: I think the answer to that one is quite obviously 626 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 17: act I don't want. 627 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 2: To drive people away from the festival. Barry. Thank you 628 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 2: very much, Barry so for senior political correspondent, eight away 629 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 2: from five. Here the thank you was one of the 630 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 2: people who had concerns about the JAB and who stuck 631 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 2: to my guns with our children and treated very badly 632 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 2: because of this. It means a great deal. Well, you know, 633 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 2: I mean, look, what does it matter what I think? 634 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 2: But yeah, I do think that. I think I think 635 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 2: I might have to go and see the little vaccine 636 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 2: hesitant people in my family and say that they may 637 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 2: have had a point, and I apologize for for not 638 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 2: maybe paying enough attention to what they were saying, or 639 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:02,719 Speaker 2: just being a bit of a dick to them about it. 640 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 2: They were right in the end. Now, sick leave, there 641 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 2: is some there is a suggestion that what we need 642 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 2: to do with sick I don't know how much sick 643 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 2: leave do weget now is it ten days? Is it 644 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 2: ten days? A? Yeah, it is ten days, isn't it? 645 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 11: Now? 646 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 2: Apparently what we need to be able to do is 647 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 2: a crue it so that it just builds up and 648 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 2: builds up and builds up. If you don't take it 649 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 2: all in one year, then next year you carry it over, 650 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 2: and you carry it over and carry it over, so 651 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 2: one day you can take I don't know, a year's 652 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 2: worth of sick leave. I don't love this idea, don't 653 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 2: love it at all for obvious reasons. I can just 654 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 2: see how that's going to get gamed. But Paula loves it. 655 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 2: Paula Okaine, who is an expert in this, and she's 656 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 2: going to be with us in about quarter past five 657 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 2: and talk us through it just on Air New Zealand 658 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 2: really quickly. I see a couple of regions in the 659 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 2: last couple of days have got quite nervous about Air 660 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 2: New Zealand cutting flights to those regions, Taranaki and Nelson 661 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 2: in particular. Now I'm not entirely sure what it is 662 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 2: because I've gone back and looked at all the official 663 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 2: statements from New Zealand. This is speculation from third party 664 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 2: commentators on this however, and I'm not sure exactly what 665 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 2: it is they getting worked up about, but they may 666 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 2: have a point. Yet, I think Nelson is more at 667 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 2: risk than Tartanaki because Nelson there is another airline that 668 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 2: flies to Nelson. It sounds there. I can't see another 669 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 2: one flying to Tartanaki that I'm aware of. And if 670 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 2: you remember what I said the other week, is that 671 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 2: I think in New Zealand may be looking to cut 672 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 2: some roots potentially where there are other carriers. That's the 673 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 2: vibe I'm getting. If there's another carrier, kind of like 674 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 2: that interline relationship they have with the air Chathams for 675 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 2: Fakatane where they can chuck bags on and the air 676 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 2: Chathams takes it on, I think that may be an 677 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 2: option for them. Anyway, we're going to talk to the CEO, 678 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 2: Nicol Ravashanki. He'll be of us tomorrow. We'll have a 679 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 2: chat to him about it and see whether there's something 680 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 2: to it. But next up, let's talk to Brian Roach 681 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 2: about this tricky and clever little move he's pulled in 682 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 2: the primary teachers pay negotiations newstoksvs. 683 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: For you person over again, dressing the newsmakers to get 684 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: the real story. It's Heather Duplzl and drive with One 685 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: New Zealand to coverage like no one else news doorg ZV. 686 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 16: Good afternoon. 687 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 2: We have a new development for you in the primary 688 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 2: teachers pay negotiations. The government's man has now decided to 689 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 2: offer the same pay deal to teachers who are not 690 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 2: in the union. It's four point seven percent and pay 691 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 2: increases in the next twelve months. Now the union was 692 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 2: scheduled to come on the show in half an hour's time. 693 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 2: They have just pulled out. Sir Brian Roach is the 694 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 2: Public Service Commissioner and with us afternoon. 695 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 14: Brian, Good afternoon, Heather. 696 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 2: Why have you made this offer to the non union. 697 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 14: Teachers because there are ten thousand non unionized teachers who 698 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 14: have been deprived of a settlement. In the normal course 699 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 14: of events, we would have kept going with the NZDI, 700 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 14: and we are still keeping going with them, but I 701 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 14: got to the point where I could no longer justify 702 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 14: with holding an offer. So they the non union members 703 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 14: have the option now of accepting or not accepting. I 704 00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 14: don't think it impacts at all on our good faith 705 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 14: bargaining and our strong commitment to reach a settlement with NZDI. 706 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 2: Is it lawful, of course. 707 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 14: But it is risky, and that's playing out now that 708 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 14: this is a question of equity. Why would somebody who's 709 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 14: not in the union be deprived of being able to 710 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 14: benefit from something they're under no obligation to accept it. 711 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 14: I fully respect that, But ten thousand people, where I 712 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 14: can make their lives better and get greater stability, is 713 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 14: worth doing. 714 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 2: You may not have an answer to this question, but 715 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,919 Speaker 2: the nzdeye says it's going to file urgent legal action. 716 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 2: What would that be? 717 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 14: I think they worth talking about an injunction to stop 718 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 14: me doing this. I'm not aware of it. I mean 719 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 14: we did this after careful consideration and on the basis 720 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:51,479 Speaker 14: of equity between two categories of teachers, the unionized group, 721 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 14: and we're fully engaged with them and the non unionized group. 722 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,839 Speaker 14: The two are separate and distinct, and that's how I 723 00:34:57,920 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 14: view them. 724 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 2: Is this the first time a public service commissioner has 725 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 2: made an offer this publicly and this widely to non 726 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:06,720 Speaker 2: union members. 727 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 14: I think it may be the first, but that as 728 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 14: it motivated me. I think it's the right thing to 729 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,760 Speaker 14: do in the circumstances I face, and I remain committed 730 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 14: to reaching a settlement with all teachers, and we have 731 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 14: done well today and we've still got nz EI to do. 732 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 2: Do you imagine that it will put pressure on them 733 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 2: to wrap up their negotiations. 734 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,319 Speaker 14: We've been putting pressure on them anyway. I mean, that's 735 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 14: the matter for them to determine with their members what 736 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 14: they do next. 737 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:37,439 Speaker 13: I respect that now. 738 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 2: We spoke to Liam Rutherford of the NZDI not long ago, 739 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:43,840 Speaker 2: maybe in earlier this week, maybe late last week, and 740 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 2: they sounded like they were going soft on this business 741 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 2: of wanting the treaty reflected in the contracts. Have they 742 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:50,479 Speaker 2: rolled over on that one yet? 743 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 14: They haven't, but it has not become It's not as 744 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 14: prevalent as it once was, and you know that's been 745 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 14: part of the frustration. We have been trying to bargain 746 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 14: for the best part of five or six months. In 747 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 14: the normal course of events, we would have reached the 748 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 14: settlement by now and non union members would have benefitted. 749 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 14: We haven't been done to reach a settlement with the union, 750 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 14: so I can't see why we shouldn't move to the 751 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 14: non union members. 752 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 2: Brian, thank you for your time and best of luck 753 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 2: with it, Sir, Brian wrote to the Public Service Commission, 754 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,240 Speaker 2: it's ten past five.

The companies announced it will stop selling 756 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 2: frozen vegetables, Gregg's Coffee and a range of brand dip 757 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:31,840 Speaker 2: brands in New Zealand. They will shut three manufacturing facilities. 758 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 2: They are in Auckland, christ Church in Dunedin and the 759 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 2: packing plant and Hastings is also on the chopping block now. 760 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 2: Alan McDonald is the head of Advocacy and Strategy for 761 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 2: the Employers and Manufacturers Association and with us Hi Allen, Hey, 762 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:44,919 Speaker 2: why have they made this call? 763 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 6: Well, I've only seen the press release like you, and 764 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 6: they cite inputs as one of the big causes of 765 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 6: them making this very tough decision, which is very hard 766 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 6: for those three hundred and fifty odd. 767 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 9: People festival. 768 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 6: And inputs in that and that manufacturing that will be 769 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 6: getting their raw materials, that will be paying for their 770 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 6: energy and frozen foods. You need a lot of electricity 771 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 6: and energy to first chill them and instare them, and 772 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 6: there'll be stuff like plant and machinery and waste cost 773 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 6: all that the average ways cost them. The last year's 774 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:20,920 Speaker 6: been down about the two point one two point two percent, 775 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 6: So it'll be some combination of maybe all of those 776 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 6: or some of those that's led to them making this 777 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 6: very tough decision. 778 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,399 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm taking from the fact that you've only 779 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 2: read the press release. No one talked to you. You 780 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 2: didn't see this coming, This wasn't widely known. 781 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:40,399 Speaker 6: No hadly known. Yeah, so that's it is a bit 782 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,279 Speaker 6: of a surprise. But I don't think it'll be the 783 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:43,799 Speaker 6: last of these sorts of things we're going to see 784 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 6: this year. 785 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 2: This year you think. 786 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think there'd be more. Some of them won't 787 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 6: be as high profile obviously as heinz Waddy, which is 788 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 6: a brand that's been in New Zealand for a very 789 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 6: long time. We keep hearing rumblings of others getting ready 790 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 6: to exit, significant size manufacturers as well as small ones. 791 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 6: So you know, the industrialization has been happening or two 792 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,280 Speaker 6: prompted by some very high electricity tracy prices or slighted 793 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,320 Speaker 6: as being prompted by those prices, so you know it 794 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 6: won't be a supposed to see more. 795 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, Allen. 796 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:18,919 Speaker 2: The thing is, though, I thought, I mean, sure, we've 797 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 2: had we've had problems with the electricity prices. We absolutely have, 798 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 2: but I thought for the for the most part, we 799 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,280 Speaker 2: had got through that that was a last year's story. 800 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:26,879 Speaker 2: Am I wrong? 801 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 6: Yes, they're still going up. 802 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:30,840 Speaker 11: You know. 803 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 6: So the lines companies, for example, they are on a 804 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,360 Speaker 6: cycle when they can increase their prices, and that's just 805 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 6: started for now. The dams are full, and that's good, 806 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 6: so that might keep a stable level, but they're not 807 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 6: dropping back, and they forecast to go up even even 808 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 6: when we get the new LNG plant, if we get 809 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,799 Speaker 6: it and if we use it, they're still going up. 810 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:55,800 Speaker 2: All right, Ellen, thank you very much. I do appreciate 811 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 2: your time. That's Ellen McDonald Employers and Manufacturers Association, head 812 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 2: of that because he and strategy right now or thirteen 813 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 2: past five, Heather due for ce Allen, whether I prefer 814 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 2: the term fortune teller as opposed to conspiracy theorist. Well, 815 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 2: in this case, you may be right. I got a 816 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 2: new pole for you. And what Americans think of the 817 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 2: war in Iran, and basically what it is is it's 818 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,759 Speaker 2: divided along party line. So according to the Quinnipac University poll, 819 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 2: fifty three percent. It's I mean, it's a majority of voters. 820 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:25,759 Speaker 2: It's not a huge majority. It's fifty three percent of 821 00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 2: voters are against the military action in Iran, forty percent supported, 822 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 2: and the rest are kind of undecided, not really sure. 823 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 2: But if you have a look a long party lines, 824 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:35,840 Speaker 2: it's pretty clear what's going on. Democrats eighty nine percent 825 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 2: against the war, eighty five percent of Republicans back it, 826 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,760 Speaker 2: So minds are made up before the thing even started. 827 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 2: Fourteen past five. Now, this would have to be one 828 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 2: of the most incredible jaw dropping winery clearance deals of 829 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 2: the past few months.

It wasn't supposed to sell for twelve ninety nine, 833 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,720 Speaker 2: but tough domestic and global trading conditions mean the difficult 834 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 2: decision was made by the wine rey to just drop 835 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 2: that price right down.

We 851 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 2: are just maturing and our labor rates right now are 852 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 2: so high that we're not just labour like that anymore. 853 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 2: And our country is more about innovation and technology and 854 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 2: we're putting them putting stuff in boxes and pulling it 855 00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 2: out of the ground. That's from MIC and that's a 856 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 2: very positive way of looking at shut down of the 857 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 2: manufacturing eighteen past five now and academic reckons. The government 858 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 2: has missed the chance to improve our laws around sick leave. 859 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 2: So there's a bill before Parliament at the moment that's 860 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 2: intended to bring the two thousand and three Holidays Act 861 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 2: up to date with the modern working environment, but it 862 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:18,719 Speaker 2: doesn't significantly change the way we deal with sick leaf. 863 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:22,800 Speaker 2: Associate Professor Paula Okaine from Otago University's Business schoolers with 864 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 2: US high Paula Kyodo, Hey, so do you reckon we 865 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 2: should be able to accrue the sick leave, have it 866 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 2: roll over the unused sick leave year of year after year. 867 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 20: Yes, absolutely. I think if we could allow that sick 868 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 20: leave to accrue and actually a crue when you move 869 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 20: jobs as well, so create more of a centralized system. 870 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 20: You would give people access to better sick leave. You 871 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 20: might discourage misuse of sick leave, and when people are 872 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 20: actually sick for a longer period of time, they're better covered. 873 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 20: So it would really help to deal with issues around 874 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 20: people with long term illness, for example, and those who 875 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:56,320 Speaker 20: move jobs quite. 876 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 2: A lot a crew to what how high could you 877 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:01,319 Speaker 2: take it before it can so, I. 878 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 20: Mean potentially you'd want to put a limit of a 879 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 20: year or something like that on it, but yeah, it 880 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,240 Speaker 20: could be as much as that, and at ten days 881 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 20: occurring a year, you're probably at what's that maybe twenty 882 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,799 Speaker 20: years before you'd have a full crule of working days. 883 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 2: Do you know, I think people will take the mickey 884 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 2: where they will. They'll get to a certain point where 885 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 2: they've got a fair amount. Maybe they're thinking of leaving 886 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 2: the job start sort of faking the sicknesses. 887 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:24,759 Speaker 20: I think that would be really difficult with long term 888 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,399 Speaker 20: sick I can get it for a day or two, 889 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 20: but I think if you're actually properly long term sick, 890 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,720 Speaker 20: you need very good evidence for that. So actually probably 891 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:32,400 Speaker 20: takes away some of that ticking the mickey. 892 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 2: Okay, And do you think we need different types of 893 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 2: sick leave as well? 894 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 20: I think we need good sick leave. I think in 895 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:41,319 Speaker 20: most countries it covers off the different types of leave, 896 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 20: whether you're caring for people, or caring for children, or 897 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 20: caring for older people. And if we create that a cruel, 898 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 20: we actually give people more in the long run, hopefully 899 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 20: because they've got those days that follow over. So I'm 900 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:53,759 Speaker 20: not sure that we need different types, but I think 901 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 20: if we had that a cruel, it would make it fairer. 902 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 2: Okay, Paula, thank you very much. By the way, have 903 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 2: you calculated how much this might cost? 904 00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:02,279 Speaker 17: Oh? 905 00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,680 Speaker 20: I have not done that. But it may also reduce 906 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 20: some of the costs for the government in relation to 907 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 20: support it, living payments and so on. So I'd say 908 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 20: there's a good thing to do for the economic economists 909 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 20: sit there to really look at how much it might cost. 910 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,800 Speaker 20: But it would be the employer's paying ten days a 911 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,359 Speaker 20: year every year, regardless of fellows on the text that's said, 912 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:19,759 Speaker 20: cleever or. 913 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 2: Not right, PAULA, thanks very much, appreciate. Paul okay, thank you, 914 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 2: Associate professor at Otaga University Business School. First text on it. 915 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 2: Who's paying for this? You know who's paying for this. 916 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 2: You're paying for this. You're the employer. My boss is 917 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:34,800 Speaker 2: paying for this. He didn't want to pay for this, 918 00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,800 Speaker 2: all right. This is the unions. What happened with the union? 919 00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 2: What happened with the union? I was like I said 920 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:43,320 Speaker 2: to the boss before, I was like, great, okay, just 921 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 2: to confirm unions still with us. Five thirty Oh no, sorry, 922 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 2: I for we got to tell you. Union's pulled out. 923 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 2: Union's been like this all day. Union's been like the 924 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 2: stock market and the oil price after an air strike, 925 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 2: up and down, up and down. First they were like, 926 00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 2: now we can't come on, Then we can come on. 927 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:58,400 Speaker 2: Now we're pulled out a coming on. I don't know 928 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 2: what their problem is, and it would at least I've 929 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 2: got a statement so I can read you what they're 930 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,920 Speaker 2: planning to do and what they think about. This government 931 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 2: attacks teachers and their collective decision to fight for what 932 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 2: they're worth from the NZDI terror Roa not happy. The 933 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 2: move is a deliberate and serious breach of good faith 934 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:19,280 Speaker 2: and would undermine teachers collective bargaining. He said, Who's he Rutherford? 935 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:22,319 Speaker 2: Liam Rutherford. He said n z EI terr Uroa would 936 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 2: file urgent legal action and ask the Public Service Commission 937 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:28,239 Speaker 2: to meet and discuss its proposal with the union. First, Well, 938 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,879 Speaker 2: you've been meeting and discussing since by my telling, June 939 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,759 Speaker 2: last year. So anyway, I'm looking for I love it. 940 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 2: As I said at the start of the program, I'm 941 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 2: quite keen to see what the huddle think about. This's 942 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,799 Speaker 2: got Jack Tamer Morris Williamson with us shortly five twenty one. 943 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 1: Heather on your smart speaker, on the iHeart app and 944 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 1: in your car on your drive home. It's Heather duplicy 945 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,920 Speaker 1: Ellen Drive with one New Zealand end of Power, a 946 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:54,640 Speaker 1: satellite mobile news. 947 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:58,000 Speaker 2: Talk said be government's been unable to overturn the band 948 00:44:58,040 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 2: on the live animal experts took it to Cabinet co 949 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:01,920 Speaker 2: and get Act in New Zealand first to agree to it. 950 00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 2: So as a result, it's not going to happen. We'll 951 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 2: talk to federated farmers about that in about twelve minutes. 952 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,279 Speaker 2: Right now it's five twenty four, so I'm thinking the 953 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 2: Reserve Bank must have realized by now that they're going 954 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 2: to lose the the cash access debate because John Key 955 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:16,400 Speaker 2: has just weighed in. 956 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:16,680 Speaker 11: Now. 957 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:18,960 Speaker 2: I don't think John Key weighing in is the thing 958 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 2: that kills it, because it's actually a nutty and expensive 959 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 2: idea already. But I don't think it helps that he's 960 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:25,760 Speaker 2: weighed in because he knows what he's talking about, because 961 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 2: he was the chair of A and Z in New Zealand, 962 00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,319 Speaker 2: and he's taken a potshot at the Reserve Bank here 963 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 2: for wanting to force the retail banks to set up 964 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 2: ATMs in rural areas. He says the reason that the 965 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 2: banks have shut down the branches and the ATMs is 966 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 2: because it reflects what the customers are wanting and doing. Quote, 967 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,359 Speaker 2: they don't want to go into a branch, they don't 968 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:45,279 Speaker 2: want to have anything to do anything other than pick 969 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,759 Speaker 2: up their phone or log into their laptop. Now tell 970 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:49,920 Speaker 2: me he's wrong. For the most of us, tell me 971 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 2: he's wrong. I mean, it's a really nice idea. It's 972 00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 2: a popular idea because it is nice to think that 973 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 2: we'd all be able to go and access cash easily 974 00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:58,880 Speaker 2: wherever we are in the country, whenever we want. But 975 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,320 Speaker 2: how many times have you really used a branch or 976 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 2: an ATM in the last year. I was thinking about 977 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,399 Speaker 2: other once. I reckon it's once in the last year, 978 00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 2: and it was actually last weekend because I had to 979 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:10,960 Speaker 2: get two hundred and fifty dollars out for a bouncy castle. 980 00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 2: But before that, in the twelve months leading it not 981 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 2: not once. So while I love having an ATM within 982 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:18,320 Speaker 2: a k of the house, I actually don't need it 983 00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 2: for a once in the year withdrawal plus, doing this 984 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 2: is not without cost r It's not free. The proposal's 985 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,320 Speaker 2: going to force banks to set up maybe three thousand 986 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:28,839 Speaker 2: new ATMs. That's a huge number. That's gonna cost them 987 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:30,960 Speaker 2: one hundred and four million dollars a year. They're not 988 00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,080 Speaker 2: gonna pay for it. You're gonna pay for it. I'm 989 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:35,520 Speaker 2: gonna pay for it split between five million of us. 990 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 2: That's twenty dollars each of us would have to pay 991 00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:40,759 Speaker 2: every single year just to make sure that everybody can 992 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:42,960 Speaker 2: get their bouncy castle money once a year when they 993 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 2: need it. Now. I don't blame the Reserve Bank governor 994 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 2: the new one for this idea. I think this was 995 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,600 Speaker 2: in trained before she arrived. But this is a case 996 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:52,719 Speaker 2: of the Reserve Bank straying out of its lane, which 997 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,080 Speaker 2: it has a propensity to do, and whether she shuts 998 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:57,360 Speaker 2: this down or not as her first real test of 999 00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 2: how much she wants to preside over a distracted reserve bank. 1000 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:02,480 Speaker 2: Either way, I think we all know this idea is 1001 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:06,080 Speaker 2: so expensive and now faces enough significant, significant enough opposition 1002 00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:08,960 Speaker 2: that I think it has to be scaled down or killed. 1003 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 2: Heather due for ce Allen Heather, OMG. This academic has 1004 00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:15,840 Speaker 2: obviously never employed staff and paid for it out of 1005 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 2: her own pocket. Who is ever going to employ someone 1006 00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 2: who has accrued three hundred and sixty five days of 1007 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:22,960 Speaker 2: leave and then transfers that with them when you employ them? 1008 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:25,560 Speaker 2: If you think about it, so, it's basically anybody. It 1009 00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 2: would be anybody in the workforce for twenty years, So 1010 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,320 Speaker 2: pretty much if you start in the workforce, I don't know, 1011 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,719 Speaker 2: let's say eighteen. By the time you hit this, any 1012 00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 2: employee over thirty eight, we'll have a year's worth of 1013 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 2: sick leave. Right, you're gonna employ them? Oh, I'm not 1014 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:41,799 Speaker 2: going to employ what that's of course, that's a crazy idea. 1015 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,000 Speaker 2: It's never gonna happen here the business owner here, When 1016 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 2: are academic's gonna stop trying to bankrupt every small and 1017 00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:50,479 Speaker 2: medium enterprise in New Zealand. Heather, look on the bright 1018 00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 2: side of hinz what he's shutting down. The more businesses 1019 00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:55,760 Speaker 2: that shut down, the more our emissions reduce the climate. 1020 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:57,600 Speaker 2: Nutters will be happy. I feel like I feel like 1021 00:47:57,600 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 2: there's a lot of nutting people who will be happy 1022 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:01,320 Speaker 2: with what's going on in the world today. Heither the 1023 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,680 Speaker 2: heinz Waty's announcement is just another small milestone along the 1024 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:07,120 Speaker 2: road to net zero, which the Prime Minister declared when 1025 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 2: he took office in twenty twenty three. He was deeply 1026 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:13,359 Speaker 2: committed to it's the road to nowhere. Regards Stephen, Yeah, 1027 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,120 Speaker 2: we'll talk to the huddle about that shortly. Federad of 1028 00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 2: Farmer's first day news talks. 1029 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:16,799 Speaker 8: That'd be. 1030 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:28,440 Speaker 3: Oh my getness in with my cutting through the noise 1031 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 3: to get the facts. 1032 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 1: It's Heather duper cell and drive with one New Zealand 1033 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:35,759 Speaker 1: coverage like no one else news talks. 1034 00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:47,439 Speaker 2: They'd be weak feature future feature. Briscos Brisco Group has 1035 00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:50,680 Speaker 2: reported today not a bad half year result actually, given 1036 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:52,399 Speaker 2: what we were going through last year when you think 1037 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 2: about it, everybody had less money to spend, cost a 1038 00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:56,960 Speaker 2: living crisis. It was not very fun at all. Yet 1039 00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,760 Speaker 2: Prisco Marriage managed to keep things, keep the ship steady. 1040 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,320 Speaker 2: So have a chat to Rod Duke after six and 1041 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:03,800 Speaker 2: actually what I want to talk to him about is 1042 00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 2: how worried he is about what he's seeing going on 1043 00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:09,240 Speaker 2: in Iran, because that's another cost of living problem, obviously 1044 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:11,400 Speaker 2: problem for retailers. So as I say, after six and 1045 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 2: the huddles standing by twenty four away from sex now 1046 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 2: the government's back down on its plan to lift the 1047 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,239 Speaker 2: ban on the live animal exports. The NATS wanted to 1048 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 2: do this, but they couldn't get it past cabinet. Carl 1049 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,440 Speaker 2: Dean is the Federated Farmer's Dairy chairman and with us 1050 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:28,520 Speaker 2: Hi Carl Hi, good evening here, how good it are 1051 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 2: you by this. 1052 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:31,919 Speaker 3: Oh, we're very. 1053 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:35,160 Speaker 21: Disappointed that, to be honest, but I suppose it's not 1054 00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:41,279 Speaker 21: surprising given the lack of appetite. There was a from 1055 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:44,719 Speaker 21: the coalition partners to push it through, but also the 1056 00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 21: moment the opposition came out and said we're not going 1057 00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 21: to have a bar of it, no matter how good 1058 00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 21: you make it for animal health and welfare. They don't 1059 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:58,040 Speaker 21: want a bar of live exports. So it's just politics. 1060 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,040 Speaker 2: So was it though, because it was part of the 1061 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 2: National Party and Act coalition agreement. So can we assume 1062 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:05,879 Speaker 2: their New Zealand first was the problem here? 1063 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 21: I believe that it's more of the fact of it. 1064 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:12,680 Speaker 21: It's probably not high on the priority list in politics, 1065 00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:17,280 Speaker 21: but the fact is that it would be very seldom 1066 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,240 Speaker 21: to go and make a decision and expect a commercial 1067 00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:23,719 Speaker 21: interest to build us a nice, fancy, state of the 1068 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 21: art boat because it was going to be a gold 1069 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:31,160 Speaker 21: standard new one for the world, only for the oppositional 1070 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,800 Speaker 21: labor to be hanging over the head of a giant 1071 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:37,279 Speaker 21: gauntlet saying well, if we get back in, it's gone. 1072 00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:37,759 Speaker 20: Yeah. 1073 00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:39,360 Speaker 21: So it was never seen how long it takes to 1074 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:42,280 Speaker 21: make fairies. It was never going to work. 1075 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:44,640 Speaker 2: Well, that's a low blow, but it's a fair one, Carl. 1076 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:47,279 Speaker 2: Do you think part of the problem here as well 1077 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 2: is that you kind of snook it a bit politically 1078 00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 2: if you're a farmer, because they can afford to break 1079 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:54,000 Speaker 2: a promise to you guys. It's not as if you're 1080 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 2: going to pack a tantrum and go vote for the 1081 00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 2: other side because the other side is a bit nutty. 1082 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:02,759 Speaker 21: Well, I think you are bang on the money there. 1083 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 21: At the end of the day, the majority of New 1084 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:08,839 Speaker 21: Zealanders that live in the cities, this didn't really affect them. 1085 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:11,799 Speaker 21: It's not going to be one that's going to cost 1086 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:14,239 Speaker 21: them huge amount of votes that they need to be 1087 00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:18,200 Speaker 21: winning right now. But it will cost the New Zealand economy. 1088 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,600 Speaker 21: You know, this was half a billion dollar trade before 1089 00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:25,720 Speaker 21: it was banned. We've seen the American market for beef 1090 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 21: goat gangbusters in the last two years. We're missing out 1091 00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:32,880 Speaker 21: on that at the moment, the ability to help rebuild 1092 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:38,320 Speaker 21: the American herd through sending breeding animals there, so it 1093 00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:41,560 Speaker 21: is money being sucked up by other economies like Australia at. 1094 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:44,759 Speaker 2: The moment, Carl, do you think this is the end 1095 00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:48,200 Speaker 2: of the road for this discussion in New Zealand, Like, 1096 00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:50,600 Speaker 2: if you go to an election twenty twenty six and 1097 00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:53,439 Speaker 2: it's not overturned, the ban will be forever in place. 1098 00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 21: I think we're now getting to a point where it 1099 00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 21: has been already in place for five years now. Yeah, 1100 00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 21: it's going to be pretty hard to build up any 1101 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:08,960 Speaker 21: capacity going forward if it did get overturned. You know, 1102 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:12,759 Speaker 21: there was a big industry behind it that's very much 1103 00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 21: now diminished. The international players they've gone elsewhere. You know, 1104 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:21,560 Speaker 21: they've gone to Australia, they've gone to other countries around 1105 00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 21: the world for those breeding animals for export. So even 1106 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:29,840 Speaker 21: if we did get back today, it would probably be 1107 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 21: a good wee while before we got the trade back 1108 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:32,600 Speaker 21: to where it was. 1109 00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:35,799 Speaker 2: Carl, it's good to talk to you. Thanks very much mate, 1110 00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:38,959 Speaker 2: This Carl Den, Federated Farmer's Dairy Chair. I should say, actually, 1111 00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 2: I seem to be on the wrong side of public 1112 00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:44,880 Speaker 2: opinion on the cash and the ATMs and the branches, 1113 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:47,120 Speaker 2: so I'll get some of those texts and attack. It's 1114 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 2: twenty one away from. 1115 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:52,640 Speaker 1: Six the Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty, the 1116 00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:54,359 Speaker 1: only truly global brand. 1117 00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:57,080 Speaker 2: Tuddle of us this evening. Morris Williams and Auckland Council, 1118 00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,520 Speaker 2: former National Party minister and Jack Tame who's the host 1119 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:01,719 Speaker 2: of Saturday Mornings and Q and A on TVNZ. Hello 1120 00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:05,799 Speaker 2: are you too, Kai, Heather Kalada Morris? Did you love 1121 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 2: the Brian Roach move on the primary teachers as much 1122 00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 2: as I did? 1123 00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:10,680 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1124 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,359 Speaker 13: Look, I'm very pleased he did it to have those 1125 00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:15,959 Speaker 13: members of the Union and I think it's one third 1126 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,359 Speaker 13: of the primary teachers are not a member of the Union, 1127 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:20,960 Speaker 13: ten thousand of them for them to say well, why 1128 00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:23,000 Speaker 13: are we being held up with a settlement in a 1129 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:25,719 Speaker 13: because the lot that are in the Union are holding out. 1130 00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 13: And my understanding of the stumbling block for the Union 1131 00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 13: is two things, the Treaty of White Tangy and learning support. 1132 00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:35,680 Speaker 13: And I heard the Minister of the Day said she's 1133 00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:39,120 Speaker 13: put three quarters of a billion into learning support. It's 1134 00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:43,800 Speaker 13: the biggest investment in learning support in a generation, about 1135 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,840 Speaker 13: two million hours extra into the primary schools of Luton. 1136 00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:50,240 Speaker 13: So for the Treaty of White Tangy and learning Support 1137 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:54,360 Speaker 13: when it's been the greatest injection of money in a lifetime, 1138 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,160 Speaker 13: I just think the Union are playing silly buggers. And 1139 00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 13: good on Brian Roaches for doing what. 1140 00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 2: He did, quite right, Jack. Seems to be the pressure 1141 00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:03,279 Speaker 2: is on the union now to wrap up these negotiations 1142 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:05,279 Speaker 2: or they face a potential exodus, don't they. 1143 00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's exactly Aday. I mean, he's definitely cranked things 1144 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:11,760 Speaker 10: up with us. And obviously Brian Roach isn't shy about 1145 00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:14,920 Speaker 10: throwing himself right into the center of center of these 1146 00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,279 Speaker 10: negotiations and the center of this fight. I mean, you 1147 00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:19,520 Speaker 10: can just imagine what it might be like in some 1148 00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:22,279 Speaker 10: of those staff rooms around the country, like you know, 1149 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 10: tomorrow morning for the for the eight thirty staff meeting, 1150 00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:27,200 Speaker 10: Like you can just imagine that people are going to 1151 00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 10: be looking around the room and you can imagine the 1152 00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:31,560 Speaker 10: kind of tension and divisions and Yep, there might be 1153 00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:34,120 Speaker 10: people who attempted to step away from the union if 1154 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,480 Speaker 10: they get a sense that the negotiations are likely to 1155 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 10: drag on.

And 1164 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 13: when they come in for their morning team. 1165 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:07,400 Speaker 2: Do you call them a scab if they're not in 1166 00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:07,960 Speaker 2: the union? 1167 00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:10,959 Speaker 13: No, I don't think you can.

I'm happy to just be 1193 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:13,960 Speaker 13: an individual employment contract. And so why should they be 1194 00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:16,000 Speaker 13: held up? And it's gone on for the so. 1195 00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:16,800 Speaker 3: I mean they've. 1196 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:19,760 Speaker 13: Settled with the secondary schools, they've settled with the principals, 1197 00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 13: they've settled with all but the end ZDI are hanging 1198 00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:24,640 Speaker 13: out on these two things about the treaty, which I 1199 00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:27,040 Speaker 13: think has got nothing to do with a pay claim 1200 00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:31,279 Speaker 13: for schools and learning support. And when I said the 1201 00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:33,360 Speaker 13: number of the money, I think I'm right. Three quarters 1202 00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:36,880 Speaker 13: of a billion and two and two million hours of 1203 00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:40,920 Speaker 13: learning support added by n by Erica Stamford, which is 1204 00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:43,040 Speaker 13: the biggest in a generation. And that's still not enough 1205 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:43,319 Speaker 13: of them. 1206 00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, Jack, did you hear that academic before who was 1207 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,160 Speaker 2: talking about accruing sickly for up to a year. 1208 00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:54,080 Speaker 10: Yeah, thoughts a year seems like a long time to me. 1209 00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 10: There's probably nice yes, I'm not going to call anyone 1210 00:56:59,600 --> 00:56:59,919 Speaker 10: a scare. 1211 00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:01,319 Speaker 9: I mean, it's I just think it's. 1212 00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:04,239 Speaker 10: I just think that there's a happy medium to be 1213 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 10: had here. And I do think that trying to nickel 1214 00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:09,520 Speaker 10: and dine employees over sick ly is not a good 1215 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:11,680 Speaker 10: move on behalf of employees, because I think it's more 1216 00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:14,200 Speaker 10: likely that people will come to work when they're sick 1217 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:16,640 Speaker 10: and make your other employees sick, which actually will ultimately 1218 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:19,120 Speaker 10: hurt your productivity. So I think there's a happy middle 1219 00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 10: ground to be had. And look, if I was to 1220 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 10: get a serious illness, I'm sure I would love to 1221 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,480 Speaker 10: have a year's sick leave to be able to call upon. 1222 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:28,880 Speaker 10: But I don't know that it's currently realistic in the 1223 00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:31,200 Speaker 10: kind of economy living in right now, not at all. 1224 00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:34,200 Speaker 2: And also, Morris, it's transferable across This idea is it's 1225 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:37,880 Speaker 2: transferable across employers. So the eight Now, who's going to 1226 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:39,920 Speaker 2: hire the person with the years like a thirty eight 1227 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:40,920 Speaker 2: to stop being employee? 1228 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:43,640 Speaker 13: But a whole year up the sleeve of sickness. Sorry, 1229 00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:46,880 Speaker 13: I'll find I'll find another candidate. Look in the sick 1230 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:49,240 Speaker 13: leave is about that when you're sick, you should be 1231 00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:52,240 Speaker 13: able to get some pay while you're home and recovery. 1232 00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:54,880 Speaker 13: The idea that if you're not claiming it, you can 1233 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:58,000 Speaker 13: just accumulate it and accrue it over. I mean that 1234 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:00,800 Speaker 13: just makes no sense at all. I mean, whoever the 1235 00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:02,960 Speaker 13: academic is, he needs to read some more books. 1236 00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 2: You are such a sexist. It was actually a woman 1237 00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:06,360 Speaker 2: who came up with that crappy idea. 1238 00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:10,400 Speaker 13: Morris, Oh sorry, sorry, Okay, Well, I'm trying to be 1239 00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:12,280 Speaker 13: very careful here, and I'm not allowed to do scabs 1240 00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 13: and I wasn't going to get into missoge and the 1241 00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:14,439 Speaker 13: other was a bloke. 1242 00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 2: Good on you. Okay, we'll take a quick break, come 1243 00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 2: back shortly quarter two. 1244 00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:21,560 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southby's International Realty, a name 1245 00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:23,760 Speaker 1: you can trust locally and globally. 1246 00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:26,160 Speaker 2: On the Huddle, Jack Tay, Morris Williams and Jack. I'm 1247 00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:28,360 Speaker 2: on the wrong side of public opinion on the ATM. 1248 00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:30,440 Speaker 2: So how often do you use yours? 1249 00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:31,760 Speaker 3: Never? 1250 00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:32,320 Speaker 2: Never? 1251 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 10: Because the only time this is maybe a bit controversial, 1252 00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:38,920 Speaker 10: but the only time anyone anyone my age uses an 1253 00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:40,760 Speaker 10: ATM is when they want to buy drugs or so 1254 00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:42,800 Speaker 10: I've been told about castles. 1255 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 13: Well, I'm seventy five and I haven't used an ATM 1256 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:48,520 Speaker 13: for about bloody five or ten years. I don't know, 1257 00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:52,720 Speaker 13: not just that not your age is my age as well. 1258 00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:56,640 Speaker 10: Yeah, I think cash is important. I think exits the 1259 00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:59,439 Speaker 10: cash is important. I think the way the Reserve Bank 1260 00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:03,320 Speaker 10: came about introducing these rules on moving these rules with 1261 00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 10: not going to win many supporters among the big banks. 1262 00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:08,480 Speaker 10: I'm not surprised that they have scoffed at the scale 1263 00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:11,480 Speaker 10: of the requirements. But I do think ensuring, you know, 1264 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:14,280 Speaker 10: ensuring all members of the community have access to cash 1265 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,040 Speaker 10: is important. I mean, I don't know that it's going 1266 00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:18,080 Speaker 10: to be as important than fifteen or twenty years time, 1267 00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:19,960 Speaker 10: but least for now. Not everyone's digital. 1268 00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 13: Yeah, but look, it's based on market here that if 1269 00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:26,920 Speaker 13: you're into the banks and using the cash machine and 1270 00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:28,959 Speaker 13: needing it, because I just don't. I mean, who uses 1271 00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 13: a check book anymore? They're long since con landlines. Who 1272 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 13: even answers them? If you'd still have one, I tell 1273 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:37,400 Speaker 13: you who will be happy that there's one group of 1274 00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:39,160 Speaker 13: people out there. I love it, that's the common chair 1275 00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:44,760 Speaker 13: os Why because of their drug they can't. 1276 00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:47,800 Speaker 2: Do their So if we establish more ATMs, they're going 1277 00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:50,400 Speaker 2: to love it because then they can get their drug money. Yeah, 1278 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:52,760 Speaker 2: of course, that's a good point that you make, actually, Morris, 1279 00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:54,560 Speaker 2: it's like they're an. 1280 00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:56,720 Speaker 13: Important part of our society. They need to make sure 1281 00:59:56,720 --> 01:00:00,760 Speaker 13: that they needs to look at lunacy. Absolutely. I mean 1282 01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:03,479 Speaker 13: we should all still have what were those little things 1283 01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:07,120 Speaker 13: where Sonny Walkman's let's get back to Sonny Workman's around music. 1284 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:11,560 Speaker 13: The world has moved on from this ship and people 1285 01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 13: do all their transactions with the phone in their hand, 1286 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:15,760 Speaker 13: or I do all my payments with a watch. Now 1287 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,400 Speaker 13: my watch does my bill payments. So let's just not start. 1288 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:21,000 Speaker 2: Having the Morris next time you were in here, can 1289 01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:21,920 Speaker 2: you show me how to do that? 1290 01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:23,480 Speaker 13: Yep, happy to do so. 1291 01:00:24,440 --> 01:00:26,160 Speaker 2: It's a happy day when you learn from a boomer 1292 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:29,760 Speaker 2: how to set up your payments. Now, listen, Jack, I 1293 01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:32,760 Speaker 2: have been thinking about this Auckland housing intensification thing. I 1294 01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:35,920 Speaker 2: think it's backfired on David Seabel. What's happened in the 1295 01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 2: last twenty four hours? What do you think? 1296 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:42,479 Speaker 10: I mean, I'm going to hold fire on that until 1297 01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:45,080 Speaker 10: the election because I still don't think this fight has done. 1298 01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:47,000 Speaker 10: I think this is going to go on and on 1299 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:48,880 Speaker 10: and on all the way up into the election, and 1300 01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:50,840 Speaker 10: let's see what the numbers are looking like in the 1301 01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:53,680 Speaker 10: week or two before the election, because I reckon, David 1302 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:55,600 Speaker 10: Seymour still has some cards to play on all of this. 1303 01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 10: Maybe yeah, maybe, yeah, yeah. I mean it seems it 1304 01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:03,439 Speaker 10: seems pretty sensible that if you're going to have intensification, 1305 01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:05,680 Speaker 10: you have it near the public transport and you have 1306 01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:08,200 Speaker 10: it close to the city That at a base level 1307 01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:10,400 Speaker 10: seems seems like it makes a lot of sense. But 1308 01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 10: like I say, I reckon David seem will still got 1309 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 10: cards to play. 1310 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:15,720 Speaker 2: So Morris, why I think it's backfired on him is 1311 01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:17,920 Speaker 2: because it seems that it's all going to be basically 1312 01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:20,760 Speaker 2: around the city center, which is where all the leafy suburbs, 1313 01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:21,880 Speaker 2: including his electorate are. 1314 01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 13: That's what it's, yes, but it's a matter of what 1315 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:28,040 Speaker 13: you mean by the city center, because you can easily 1316 01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:30,480 Speaker 13: go into, say where some of the transport corridors and 1317 01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:33,560 Speaker 13: the transport hubs are, and you're not in a leafy suburb. 1318 01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:37,760 Speaker 13: You're actually nearby. So what we did yesterday, which is 1319 01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:40,760 Speaker 13: really important, is we've adopted some principles at the council, 1320 01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:43,120 Speaker 13: and one of them is to accept the government's back 1321 01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 13: down to the one point six million rather than the 1322 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:48,400 Speaker 13: two million, because if you've got the two million, you 1323 01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:51,920 Speaker 13: had to bleed right down into suburbia and right down 1324 01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:54,959 Speaker 13: the suburban streets. At the one point six you don't. 1325 01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,080 Speaker 13: And in fact, the one question that was asked of 1326 01:01:57,120 --> 01:02:00,400 Speaker 13: officials yesterday, if we only did the town seen enters, 1327 01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:04,840 Speaker 13: the transport hubs and the transport corridors, would that get 1328 01:02:04,960 --> 01:02:07,720 Speaker 13: us our one point six And the answer was pretty 1329 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:08,360 Speaker 13: much yes. 1330 01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 2: Are you going to give them a map? Morris? 1331 01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:13,919 Speaker 13: Well, the trouble is that the maps can't be built 1332 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:17,280 Speaker 13: till the criteria for how you can build amology. You 1333 01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:19,960 Speaker 13: can build an infinite number of different maps. First of all, 1334 01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:23,840 Speaker 13: what was decided yesterday was that ten k radius around 1335 01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:26,240 Speaker 13: the CBD, So that means it's going to be a 1336 01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:30,360 Speaker 13: different level of intensification in that ten k circle compared 1337 01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:33,440 Speaker 13: to outside of it, which I'm delighted about because my 1338 01:02:33,640 --> 01:02:37,480 Speaker 13: ward of Howick is right outside of that. A bit 1339 01:02:37,520 --> 01:02:40,800 Speaker 13: of self interest here, secondly to do with a whole 1340 01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:43,280 Speaker 13: lot of us, to do with where the transport corridors are. 1341 01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:46,040 Speaker 13: We don't have a train set out here, we don't 1342 01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:47,920 Speaker 13: have any state highways out here. So it's good that 1343 01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:50,320 Speaker 13: we're not being forced because it was one size fits 1344 01:02:50,320 --> 01:02:53,600 Speaker 13: all originally. I think that most people will be reasonably 1345 01:02:53,640 --> 01:02:56,160 Speaker 13: happy when we settle on where it needs to be. 1346 01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:59,400 Speaker 13: What I'm not yet convinced about is what was wrong 1347 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 13: with the original unitary plan that was so hard worked for. 1348 01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:06,040 Speaker 13: In twenty sixteen, we got all of the necessary what 1349 01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:08,720 Speaker 13: was it, thirty thousand year times thirty years, gave you 1350 01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:12,480 Speaker 13: your nine hundred thousand or a million available properties. Now 1351 01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:15,640 Speaker 13: everyone says, oh, what spike. That was a huge price 1352 01:03:15,880 --> 01:03:18,640 Speaker 13: spike in twenty twenty and so on. Well, I've just 1353 01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:20,520 Speaker 13: looked up several documents. You can look it up on 1354 01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:23,600 Speaker 13: the web. The thing that drove that was the Reserve 1355 01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:26,800 Speaker 13: Bank flounder the money market with liquidity they made that 1356 01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:30,600 Speaker 13: they dropped the interest rate to point two five of 1357 01:03:30,760 --> 01:03:33,680 Speaker 13: one percent. Now, if you can get that, that's basically 1358 01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:36,160 Speaker 13: free money and as much of it as you want. Well, 1359 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:38,640 Speaker 13: guess what happened pebble ad options and so I couldn't 1360 01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:40,920 Speaker 13: afford that normally it's only another fifty grand I. 1361 01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:43,640 Speaker 2: What you're saying is we're trying to fix something at 1362 01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:45,520 Speaker 2: the council level that was actually a reserve, but it 1363 01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 2: was driven by reserve bank action. I appreciate that's a 1364 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:49,520 Speaker 2: very good argument. Guys, listen. Thanks, I have to leave 1365 01:03:49,520 --> 01:03:51,680 Speaker 2: it there. Morris Williams and Jack Tamar Huddle seven away 1366 01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:52,040 Speaker 2: from six. 1367 01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:56,520 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duper c Allen Drive Full Show podcast 1368 01:03:56,680 --> 01:03:59,400 Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio powered by News Talk ZB. 1369 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:03,320 Speaker 2: How cool is this, Heather.

Love it good from you, 1378 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,000 Speaker 2: Hither You're wrong about local banks and ATMs. I work 1379 01:04:24,040 --> 01:04:25,720 Speaker 2: in a bank. The biggest users are the young ones 1380 01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:27,640 Speaker 2: who are losing their cards and wanting a new card. 1381 01:04:27,720 --> 01:04:29,600 Speaker 2: They can order online, but then they have to wait 1382 01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:31,440 Speaker 2: ten days when they come to the branch. The next 1383 01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:33,360 Speaker 2: biggest users of the older folk who need a branch 1384 01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 2: to help them with their digital banking. If the bank 1385 01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 2: is cashless, ATMs are the next best options. Some things 1386 01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:43,000 Speaker 2: cannot be done online. Here, the having access to cash 1387 01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 2: has nothing to do with digital competency. I'm digitally proficient, 1388 01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:49,080 Speaker 2: yet I need cash for sports clubs, grandkids, and disasters 1389 01:04:49,160 --> 01:04:51,760 Speaker 2: like the Christian earthquake. But what I would say to 1390 01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:53,840 Speaker 2: that is sure. I mean, go out and get out 1391 01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:56,600 Speaker 2: five hundred or whatever you need, stick in the undees, 1392 01:04:56,680 --> 01:04:59,120 Speaker 2: draw and then deplete it and then drive go and 1393 01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:00,760 Speaker 2: get it again next time you need it. Do you 1394 01:05:00,880 --> 01:05:03,280 Speaker 2: really need it, you know, in your like one k 1395 01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:05,120 Speaker 2: away from you or can it be ten k's away 1396 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:08,120 Speaker 2: for you just to get out every six months? Heather, 1397 01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:10,560 Speaker 2: ask the East Coast people what they think about cash. 1398 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:13,360 Speaker 2: When Gabrielle came through Hither, you were wrong one hundred percent. 1399 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:15,760 Speaker 2: You cite bouncy councils as an example. Please come back 1400 01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:17,480 Speaker 2: to the real world. I love your show. Albeit you're 1401 01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:20,160 Speaker 2: not just read it. You're just not reading the room here, Heather, 1402 01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:23,320 Speaker 2: I used an ATM this afternoon to deposit banking into 1403 01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:25,600 Speaker 2: a charity business account and take cash out of my account. 1404 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:27,360 Speaker 2: John K is a wealthy city guy like you. He 1405 01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:30,240 Speaker 2: doesn't understand rural communities. Do you know what though, why 1406 01:05:30,320 --> 01:05:32,120 Speaker 2: do you think I got money out for the bouncy council. 1407 01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:34,800 Speaker 2: Do you think they're paying tax? Hey, you think they're 1408 01:05:34,800 --> 01:05:37,360 Speaker 2: paying tax. I don't think they're paying tax. So if 1409 01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:39,200 Speaker 2: we start making it harder for me to get cash 1410 01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:40,840 Speaker 2: out for the bouncy counsel, we might get some more 1411 01:05:40,960 --> 01:05:43,520 Speaker 2: cash money into the IRD. By the way, they were 1412 01:05:43,560 --> 01:05:46,120 Speaker 2: going to do that crackdown on company loans to shareholders 1413 01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:48,520 Speaker 2: not gonna happen to Native Training will talk us through 1414 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:51,600 Speaker 2: that shortly.

It's seven past six now not bad 1425 01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:26,480 Speaker 2: news for Briscos. The retailer has posted a firm full 1426 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:29,640 Speaker 2: year result, net profits down only slightly to fifty nine 1427 01:06:29,680 --> 01:06:33,640 Speaker 2: million dollars. The managing director is rod Duke Hirodhi haven't. 1428 01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:35,800 Speaker 2: I would say that's a pretty good outcome given the 1429 01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:37,640 Speaker 2: year that we've just had read the cost of living. 1430 01:06:37,800 --> 01:06:38,360 Speaker 2: What do you think? 1431 01:06:38,600 --> 01:06:41,160 Speaker 9: Yeah, look, we were pretty pleased as well. You could 1432 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:44,360 Speaker 9: see the first half was a bit tough and it's 1433 01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:47,400 Speaker 9: sort of eased up and we kicked a couple of 1434 01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:49,920 Speaker 9: goals in the in the second half, so turned out 1435 01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:51,120 Speaker 9: a pretty quid to you do you have? 1436 01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:52,720 Speaker 2: How much did you have to cut and costs? 1437 01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:58,880 Speaker 9: Well, we didn't really. Yes, we looked after costs and 1438 01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:01,480 Speaker 9: as you can see, there's only been a small movement 1439 01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:04,800 Speaker 9: in the customer doing business. But we just sort of 1440 01:07:04,880 --> 01:07:07,360 Speaker 9: tightened up a lot of things that we're able to 1441 01:07:08,040 --> 01:07:08,280 Speaker 9: and so. 1442 01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 2: What happened in the second half to turn it around. 1443 01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:15,000 Speaker 9: Well, look, we did change a fair bit in terms 1444 01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:16,360 Speaker 9: of the way in which we go to the media 1445 01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:19,000 Speaker 9: and what we what we say in our promotions. But 1446 01:07:19,120 --> 01:07:23,600 Speaker 9: I think generally the market just from about Black Friday 1447 01:07:23,800 --> 01:07:26,200 Speaker 9: sort of just ease up a bit. People just got 1448 01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:28,240 Speaker 9: a bit more confident still. 1449 01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:31,480 Speaker 2: I was having a chat to Sky TV CEO Sophie 1450 01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:33,800 Speaker 2: Maloney the other day and she was saying the old 1451 01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:36,160 Speaker 2: TV advertising was softer than she was expecting. Are you 1452 01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:38,120 Speaker 2: still seeing value in TV advertising? 1453 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:42,920 Speaker 9: We don't do a lot of it now. Why because 1454 01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:48,680 Speaker 9: there's not as many eyeballs on it and the value 1455 01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:51,720 Speaker 9: that used to be there is simply not there and 1456 01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:52,640 Speaker 9: elsewhere at the moment. 1457 01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:54,600 Speaker 2: And is it a case of it's an expensive thing 1458 01:07:54,640 --> 01:07:56,080 Speaker 2: to make and then it doesn't bear much fruit? 1459 01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:01,360 Speaker 9: Well, yes, it would be right to characterize it that way. 1460 01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:05,560 Speaker 9: But you know, we've all known that media is going 1461 01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:08,680 Speaker 9: to shift. We've known that for years and look, it 1462 01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:11,920 Speaker 9: is what it is. People are just just taking notes 1463 01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:16,640 Speaker 9: of different pieces of media rather than fredware or even 1464 01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:17,240 Speaker 9: payt evate. 1465 01:08:17,400 --> 01:08:19,559 Speaker 2: And so where are you putting your money? Advertising wise? 1466 01:08:20,240 --> 01:08:23,719 Speaker 2: I love it social really and does that bear much fruit? 1467 01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:27,160 Speaker 2: Plenty because it can be tailored. 1468 01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:33,160 Speaker 9: There is that also we have a two million person 1469 01:08:33,400 --> 01:08:36,360 Speaker 9: customer base that we can talk direct ea m as well. 1470 01:08:36,920 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 14: Yeah. 1471 01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:39,960 Speaker 2: Interesting, now listen having a look at what's going on 1472 01:08:40,080 --> 01:08:41,720 Speaker 2: in Iran? How are you feeling about that? 1473 01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:48,519 Speaker 9: Look that for this year My year started February the first, 1474 01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:51,160 Speaker 9: So this year that we've just started, the elephant in 1475 01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:55,639 Speaker 9: the room is in fact Iran and Donald Trump if 1476 01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:58,720 Speaker 9: in fact that goes on and continues to cause the 1477 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:02,240 Speaker 9: term more and angst that it is, then it's going 1478 01:09:02,320 --> 01:09:05,439 Speaker 9: to be going to be an issue. But look, I 1479 01:09:05,560 --> 01:09:08,200 Speaker 9: happen to be in the view that he's got midterm 1480 01:09:08,280 --> 01:09:10,960 Speaker 9: elections coming up. Fighting a war he didn't need to 1481 01:09:11,000 --> 01:09:15,439 Speaker 9: be in is probably not good, and he's likely to 1482 01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:21,040 Speaker 9: pack up stumps and go home sooner rather than later. 1483 01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:24,160 Speaker 2: You're probably right there. Are you seeing any any prices 1484 01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:24,840 Speaker 2: shift already? 1485 01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:25,040 Speaker 3: Though? 1486 01:09:25,920 --> 01:09:29,240 Speaker 9: No, not yet, not yet. But it's only just been announced. 1487 01:09:29,280 --> 01:09:34,280 Speaker 9: These search charges aren't just gone on. This particular time 1488 01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:38,599 Speaker 9: of year is our low season for receipting of overseas merchandise. 1489 01:09:39,400 --> 01:09:42,879 Speaker 9: But if it were to continue through to over November, 1490 01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 9: it would be a problem. 1491 01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:47,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, quite a significant problem, wouldn't it. There are some 1492 01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:50,400 Speaker 2: people who are talking about the possibility of this kicking 1493 01:09:50,479 --> 01:09:53,040 Speaker 2: us into backwards into a recession in this country. What 1494 01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:53,640 Speaker 2: do you think of that? 1495 01:09:55,160 --> 01:10:00,920 Speaker 9: I think fuel is highly imflatiary, and I think the 1496 01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:04,120 Speaker 9: Reserve Bank will have no choice but to move interest rates, 1497 01:10:04,680 --> 01:10:08,160 Speaker 9: But I don't think they'll do it instantly. I just 1498 01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:10,320 Speaker 9: have a feeling, you know, a week or two or 1499 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:13,240 Speaker 9: three or four of this, you know, may not be 1500 01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:17,040 Speaker 9: quite enough to do that, but any extension to that 1501 01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:19,840 Speaker 9: may very well be easy for the bank to make 1502 01:10:19,880 --> 01:10:20,519 Speaker 9: those decisions. 1503 01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:23,080 Speaker 2: Rod, Yeah, well said listen, thank you very much for 1504 01:10:23,160 --> 01:10:25,479 Speaker 2: letting me pecky brains. It's Rod Duke, managing director at 1505 01:10:25,520 --> 01:10:29,200 Speaker 2: Brisco Group. It's eleven past six. Heather do clah that 1506 01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:31,800 Speaker 2: Aucklin got a flood prone properly map out pretty quickly. 1507 01:10:31,880 --> 01:10:34,760 Speaker 2: Why can't they get an intensification map out as quickly? Larry, 1508 01:10:34,760 --> 01:10:38,120 Speaker 2: It's a good question, reason being right. The flooding is 1509 01:10:38,160 --> 01:10:40,720 Speaker 2: the flooding. The flooding is where the flooding happens. You 1510 01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:42,400 Speaker 2: do a model, you go, okay, that's where the flooding 1511 01:10:42,479 --> 01:10:43,920 Speaker 2: is going to happen because the water goes up and 1512 01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:47,720 Speaker 2: these have a low lying. This map, the intensification map, 1513 01:10:47,800 --> 01:10:50,479 Speaker 2: is hard to produce because there are so many decisions 1514 01:10:50,560 --> 01:10:52,840 Speaker 2: that have to be taken yet before we can, like, 1515 01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 2: for example, and this is the point that was being 1516 01:10:55,360 --> 01:10:57,759 Speaker 2: made earlier. I think that Morris was making the decision 1517 01:10:57,800 --> 01:11:01,799 Speaker 2: that was taken today to wait the intensification towards within 1518 01:11:02,120 --> 01:11:05,639 Speaker 2: the ten k radius of the city center. That will change. 1519 01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:08,760 Speaker 2: That changes how the map would look. Now there might 1520 01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:10,560 Speaker 2: be another decision that changes how and there might be 1521 01:11:10,600 --> 01:11:12,320 Speaker 2: another decision. So in the end of it, you know, 1522 01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:17,000 Speaker 2: you're kind of like, how many maps are you going 1523 01:11:17,040 --> 01:11:19,200 Speaker 2: to produce? And because this is tied up fifty five 1524 01:11:19,240 --> 01:11:22,600 Speaker 2: people already full time, thirteen million dollars for Auckland, is 1525 01:11:22,600 --> 01:11:23,840 Speaker 2: how much more do you want to pay to produce? 1526 01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:26,240 Speaker 2: How many more maps? Using up how many more people 1527 01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:28,960 Speaker 2: to make people feel happy before we go to the selection. 1528 01:11:29,080 --> 01:11:31,679 Speaker 2: I just think it's I think I think Wayne Brown's 1529 01:11:31,720 --> 01:11:33,120 Speaker 2: right to draw line and just go no, we're not 1530 01:11:33,200 --> 01:11:35,760 Speaker 2: doing it now. The boss of the Saudi Arabian state 1531 01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:37,960 Speaker 2: backed oil company, just going back to what Rod was 1532 01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:40,320 Speaker 2: talking about there with the oil has made some comments 1533 01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:43,840 Speaker 2: about the war in his quarterly earnings call. He's warned 1534 01:11:44,320 --> 01:11:47,800 Speaker 2: that unless the Strait of Hormuz is open soon, there 1535 01:11:47,800 --> 01:11:50,760 Speaker 2: will be catastrophic consequences, possibly for the world. He says 1536 01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:53,320 Speaker 2: the company is starting to get it reckons it will 1537 01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:56,080 Speaker 2: get start getting most of its oil out in the 1538 01:11:56,160 --> 01:11:59,000 Speaker 2: next couple of days. They normally produce about seven million 1539 01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:01,519 Speaker 2: barrels of oil a day that mostly go through the strait. 1540 01:12:01,760 --> 01:12:04,720 Speaker 2: They're going to divert five million barrels a day via 1541 01:12:04,760 --> 01:12:06,960 Speaker 2: the East West pipelines, so there's about seventy one percent 1542 01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:08,000 Speaker 2: of what they normally get out. 1543 01:12:08,439 --> 01:12:08,920 Speaker 10: He warned. 1544 01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:11,760 Speaker 2: Though global inventories of oil are at a five year low, 1545 01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:14,400 Speaker 2: drawdowns will increase because of the crisis, and so it's 1546 01:12:14,479 --> 01:12:17,679 Speaker 2: critical for shipping in the Strait to resume or quote. 1547 01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:21,040 Speaker 2: There would be catastrophic consequences for the world's oil markets, 1548 01:12:21,080 --> 01:12:23,599 Speaker 2: and the longer the disruption goes on, the more drastic 1549 01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:27,200 Speaker 2: the consequences for the global economy.

I suspect, 1577 01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:49,479 Speaker 2: I suspect the story about his diary and his holiday 1578 01:13:49,560 --> 01:13:52,720 Speaker 2: leave is probably gonna just entrench that thought for you. 1579 01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:55,599 Speaker 2: So I'll run you through that, maybe hopefully before Yeah, 1580 01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:58,599 Speaker 2: why don't we before this half hours through a seventeen 1581 01:13:58,640 --> 01:14:01,120 Speaker 2: PAS six But first Brendan last and Lilford Asset Management 1582 01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:04,400 Speaker 2: hy Brandon evening hither all right, we're eleven days into 1583 01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:06,920 Speaker 2: this conflict with Iran. Now the markets have calmed a little, 1584 01:14:06,960 --> 01:14:07,320 Speaker 2: haven't they. 1585 01:14:08,760 --> 01:14:11,200 Speaker 22: Look it's fair to say they have, but there remains 1586 01:14:11,439 --> 01:14:13,800 Speaker 22: I guess a heightened sense of uncertainty in the market. 1587 01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:17,479 Speaker 22: I mean, last week the escalation did cause some large 1588 01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:20,439 Speaker 22: gyrations and markets, to say the least, so oil obviously 1589 01:14:20,520 --> 01:14:23,720 Speaker 22: the most impacted asset. We saw prices surge to a 1590 01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:26,040 Speaker 22: hive around one hundred and twenty US dollars a barrel. 1591 01:14:26,439 --> 01:14:28,240 Speaker 22: I mean, as a result of this, you know, risky 1592 01:14:28,280 --> 01:14:31,240 Speaker 22: assets broadly came under pressure. We saw the likes of 1593 01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:34,920 Speaker 22: Europe and Asia really heavily impacted, as these regions are 1594 01:14:34,920 --> 01:14:38,679 Speaker 22: particular are net oil importers, meaning that they could face 1595 01:14:38,760 --> 01:14:41,679 Speaker 22: a really large impact on their terms of trade should 1596 01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:45,240 Speaker 22: oil prices remain at these elevated levels. Since this peak, 1597 01:14:45,400 --> 01:14:47,560 Speaker 22: you know, we've seen some signs of the US administration 1598 01:14:47,760 --> 01:14:52,280 Speaker 22: trying to calm markets, speculation of G seven oil reserves 1599 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:55,600 Speaker 22: being released. You know, it's not yet to eventuate, but 1600 01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:58,400 Speaker 22: it did help calm markets a wee bit. We've also 1601 01:14:58,439 --> 01:15:01,720 Speaker 22: seen the US administration outline plan to provide insurance to 1602 01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:05,040 Speaker 22: some of these vessels via the Treasury and outlining things 1603 01:15:05,120 --> 01:15:07,680 Speaker 22: like potential military escorts as well to ensure sort of 1604 01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:12,000 Speaker 22: safe passage through this retiforms. Despite that, there's not really 1605 01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:14,639 Speaker 22: been a clear understanding of what's actually required to stop 1606 01:15:14,680 --> 01:15:17,479 Speaker 22: this war from from either side. Really, even as you 1607 01:15:17,520 --> 01:15:19,479 Speaker 22: know recent as a few hours ago, the dialogue between 1608 01:15:19,520 --> 01:15:21,519 Speaker 22: the US and Iran has remained threatening. 1609 01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:23,759 Speaker 10: So you know, a lot of uncertainty still persists. 1610 01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:27,720 Speaker 2: So how do you see, Brendan the economic effects of 1611 01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:28,640 Speaker 2: what is going on here? 1612 01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:31,960 Speaker 22: Look, the key question for US is really how long 1613 01:15:32,040 --> 01:15:35,200 Speaker 22: this conflict persists, so that'll be the key driver of 1614 01:15:35,280 --> 01:15:39,080 Speaker 22: the extent of any economic impact. The initial reaction last 1615 01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:42,120 Speaker 22: week was, you know, bond's weakening rather than strengthening like 1616 01:15:42,160 --> 01:15:44,320 Speaker 22: they would in a traditional risk off environment. And the 1617 01:15:44,400 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 22: real reason for this is clearly because of oil being involved. 1618 01:15:47,640 --> 01:15:50,479 Speaker 22: So oil prices spiking meant that markets moved to price 1619 01:15:50,560 --> 01:15:53,439 Speaker 22: in a more inflationary dynamic, which would be bad for bonds. 1620 01:15:53,880 --> 01:15:56,439 Speaker 22: So trying to quantify that is difficult, but a standard 1621 01:15:56,520 --> 01:15:59,280 Speaker 22: rule of thumb as a sustained ten percent increase in 1622 01:15:59,320 --> 01:16:02,400 Speaker 22: oil prices results in about a thirty basis point increase 1623 01:16:02,800 --> 01:16:06,320 Speaker 22: in headline inflation globally, and so that would therefore translate 1624 01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:08,840 Speaker 22: into a GDP head of about ten basis points. So 1625 01:16:08,880 --> 01:16:10,920 Speaker 22: you can see how much you could flex the assumptions 1626 01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:14,559 Speaker 22: dependent on how long oil stays at these at these 1627 01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:15,800 Speaker 22: higher levels, I mean. 1628 01:16:15,720 --> 01:16:17,280 Speaker 2: Okay, so it's not good for growth, it's not good 1629 01:16:17,320 --> 01:16:19,840 Speaker 2: for inflation, but it's not a disaster. What do you 1630 01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:22,120 Speaker 2: think the central banks are likely to do in response? 1631 01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:24,719 Speaker 10: Look, I think that's right and aggregate. 1632 01:16:25,520 --> 01:16:27,000 Speaker 22: But I guess the way you think about it is 1633 01:16:27,080 --> 01:16:30,759 Speaker 22: this will differ materially between regions. The US, for example, 1634 01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:34,280 Speaker 22: was already seeing signs of inflation accelerating prior to this 1635 01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:37,120 Speaker 22: oil shock, and so this could really compound some of 1636 01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:40,559 Speaker 22: their issues. This comes at a time where employment growth 1637 01:16:40,600 --> 01:16:42,479 Speaker 22: in the US is now quite weak, and so it 1638 01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:45,639 Speaker 22: makes the federal reserves job even more difficult balancing both 1639 01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:48,559 Speaker 22: parts of their dual mandate. In New Zealand, we think 1640 01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:52,000 Speaker 22: our central bank can look through any inflationary impacts. We 1641 01:16:52,120 --> 01:16:55,040 Speaker 22: do have excess capacity in the economy and Governor Bremen 1642 01:16:55,120 --> 01:16:57,679 Speaker 22: did outline in the last press conference that the central 1643 01:16:57,720 --> 01:17:01,360 Speaker 22: Bank would look through transitory inflation. In Australia, we do 1644 01:17:01,520 --> 01:17:03,400 Speaker 22: think the story it could be a little bit more 1645 01:17:04,120 --> 01:17:06,599 Speaker 22: more different that the Central Bank have already been worried 1646 01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:10,040 Speaker 22: about inflation, and as recently as yesterday their Deputy governor 1647 01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:13,120 Speaker 22: alluded to potentially needing to act on this faster, potentially 1648 01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:15,160 Speaker 22: as soon as next week. So there's a lot of 1649 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:16,920 Speaker 22: moving parts and plenty of uncertainty. 1650 01:17:17,360 --> 01:17:19,040 Speaker 2: Hey, Brendan, thank you so much for talking us through 1651 01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:22,000 Speaker 2: Brndan Larson Lilford Asset Management. Right, sketch you across this 1652 01:17:22,080 --> 01:17:24,320 Speaker 2: business with the Prime Minister's holiday leave next six to 1653 01:17:24,360 --> 01:17:24,800 Speaker 2: twenty one. 1654 01:17:25,400 --> 01:17:28,880 Speaker 1: Whether it's macro micro or just plain economics, it's all 1655 01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:33,160 Speaker 1: on the business hour with the Duplicila and MAS insurance 1656 01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:34,040 Speaker 1: and investments. 1657 01:17:34,280 --> 01:17:37,520 Speaker 3: Your futures in good hands, News talk zby. 1658 01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:40,439 Speaker 2: Six twenty three. Right, here's the debate about the Prime 1659 01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:44,400 Speaker 2: Minister's diary. The problem for the Prime Minister's diary is 1660 01:17:44,439 --> 01:17:46,920 Speaker 2: that he didn't come back to work officially according to 1661 01:17:47,000 --> 01:17:50,160 Speaker 2: his diary until January nineteen, which is the day that 1662 01:17:50,240 --> 01:17:52,400 Speaker 2: he had a State of the Nation address. Now why 1663 01:17:52,520 --> 01:17:54,439 Speaker 2: this is a thing is because I don't know if 1664 01:17:54,479 --> 01:17:57,599 Speaker 2: you recall, but he was on with us just before 1665 01:17:57,680 --> 01:18:01,400 Speaker 2: Christmas and he made quite a big I don't want 1666 01:18:01,400 --> 01:18:02,640 Speaker 2: to say he made quite a big deal because I 1667 01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:04,439 Speaker 2: kind of led him into it, but he did. 1668 01:18:04,720 --> 01:18:05,479 Speaker 3: He did go for it. 1669 01:18:05,640 --> 01:18:07,519 Speaker 2: He was like, yeah, no, we take too much holiday 1670 01:18:07,520 --> 01:18:10,160 Speaker 2: in this country. Americans don't take as much holiday. And 1671 01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:11,880 Speaker 2: he was telling us he was always back at work 1672 01:18:11,920 --> 01:18:14,599 Speaker 2: on the third or the fourth of January. So turns 1673 01:18:14,640 --> 01:18:17,760 Speaker 2: out something of a surprise to find out not really 1674 01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:21,560 Speaker 2: until the nineteenth. Actually actually now, his argument is that 1675 01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:24,320 Speaker 2: doesn't mean he wasn't working. He was still working. He 1676 01:18:24,439 --> 01:18:27,639 Speaker 2: says he was back at work, working quite intensively from 1677 01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:30,160 Speaker 2: the fourth and the fifth, and then he really cranked 1678 01:18:30,280 --> 01:18:32,400 Speaker 2: up on the week of the eleventh. Well, I don't 1679 01:18:32,439 --> 01:18:34,360 Speaker 2: know what comes after working intense, Like, if you're working 1680 01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:36,479 Speaker 2: intensely in the first week and then you're cranking up 1681 01:18:36,520 --> 01:18:39,160 Speaker 2: from that, you must burning out already in the second 1682 01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:41,479 Speaker 2: week of January, he reckons, he didn't even have a 1683 01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:45,080 Speaker 2: holiday trouble for him. And look, I'm just I'm not 1684 01:18:45,439 --> 01:18:48,720 Speaker 2: casting this, I'm not picking sites. I'm just laying it 1685 01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:50,960 Speaker 2: out for you as the debate is being as being 1686 01:18:51,040 --> 01:18:54,320 Speaker 2: laid out against him. Problem for him is his official 1687 01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:56,720 Speaker 2: diary starts on the nineteenth, and we assume he was 1688 01:18:56,760 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 2: working before that. Everybody else's official diary starts way before. 1689 01:19:00,320 --> 01:19:03,599 Speaker 2: Nikola Willis is meeting Treasury on the sixteenth. Chris Bishop 1690 01:19:03,720 --> 01:19:06,080 Speaker 2: is making an announcement about Granny Flats on the fifteenth. 1691 01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:09,759 Speaker 2: Erica Stanford is meeting with Education on the fourteenth.

Simon Watts did a round of media 1697 01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:26,560 Speaker 2: interviews about energy on the eleventh. Paul Goldsmith's hat of 1698 01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:29,040 Speaker 2: Poor forty on the tenth. Matt Doocey do you want 1699 01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:31,360 Speaker 2: me to keep going? Matt Doocey did an interview on 1700 01:19:31,439 --> 01:19:33,720 Speaker 2: the ninth. Sime and Brown met with health officials on 1701 01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:37,760 Speaker 2: New Year's Day, which wins everything.

So, so yeah, like I said, 1704 01:19:44,520 --> 01:19:46,760 Speaker 2: I mean, you might go off a lazy sod he's 1705 01:19:46,800 --> 01:19:48,519 Speaker 2: not back at work till the nineteenth, or you might 1706 01:19:48,600 --> 01:19:52,240 Speaker 2: go what a hostile media six twenty six, There's no 1707 01:19:52,479 --> 01:19:58,679 Speaker 2: business like show business. Katy Kerry has won her latest 1708 01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:03,920 Speaker 2: legal battle against Katy Perry. Let me explain. Katy Perry, 1709 01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:06,280 Speaker 2: as in Katie with an Ie at the End, is 1710 01:20:06,520 --> 01:20:10,040 Speaker 2: an Australian fashion designer. She won against on a case 1711 01:20:10,040 --> 01:20:12,280 Speaker 2: against Katy Perry as in with Y at the End, 1712 01:20:12,360 --> 01:20:14,240 Speaker 2: which is the one that we all know, over a 1713 01:20:14,320 --> 01:20:17,680 Speaker 2: trademark infringement. So Perry the designer was originally sued in 1714 01:20:17,720 --> 01:20:20,920 Speaker 2: two thousand and nine while Katie the Singer was getting 1715 01:20:20,920 --> 01:20:24,160 Speaker 2: ready to tour Ozzie. But then ten years later twenty nineteen, 1716 01:20:24,200 --> 01:20:27,360 Speaker 2: the designer takes the singer to court claiming Katy Perry 1717 01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:31,320 Speaker 2: the Singer was inflicting on Katy Perry the designers. Trademark 1718 01:20:31,360 --> 01:20:33,600 Speaker 2: with merchiales is very complicated. Don't worry if you're not 1719 01:20:33,600 --> 01:20:35,000 Speaker 2: following it, you STI got to know that they're being 1720 01:20:35,240 --> 01:20:37,760 Speaker 2: being hideous to each other. Anyway, that case has now 1721 01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:39,560 Speaker 2: gone all the way to the Australian High Courts. The 1722 01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:43,040 Speaker 2: thing's been going on seventeen years. Katy Perry's won the designer. 1723 01:20:43,680 --> 01:20:45,840 Speaker 2: One of the big differences was that Katy Perry the 1724 01:20:45,920 --> 01:20:48,920 Speaker 2: Designer was born Katy Perry, whereas Katy Perry the Singer 1725 01:20:49,080 --> 01:20:52,640 Speaker 2: was born Catherine Elizabeth H. Hudson. In private texts of 1726 01:20:52,760 --> 01:20:55,679 Speaker 2: Katy Perry the Singer were released as court evidence, including 1727 01:20:55,760 --> 01:20:57,880 Speaker 2: her nasty thoughts about Katy Perry the Designer. 1728 01:20:58,520 --> 01:21:01,040 Speaker 23: The court heard that Perry's manager had become aware of 1729 01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:03,760 Speaker 23: Taylor's trademark in two thousand and nine and tried to 1730 01:21:03,800 --> 01:21:06,160 Speaker 23: convince the artist to put out a statement on the matter, 1731 01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:08,800 Speaker 23: but Perry had responded that she wanted to keep out 1732 01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:13,000 Speaker 23: of it entirely. Dumb bitch, she said in response, what 1733 01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:13,599 Speaker 23: a cow? 1734 01:21:14,439 --> 01:21:15,000 Speaker 3: What a cow? 1735 01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:18,800 Speaker 2: She and that floppy head get from Canada deserve each other. Now, 1736 01:21:18,800 --> 01:21:20,160 Speaker 2: I don't know, I'm not sure which one I'm me 1737 01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:22,080 Speaker 2: in hand more her, you know what I'm talking about. 1738 01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:23,200 Speaker 2: What's his name? Ants? 1739 01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:24,400 Speaker 15: Justin Trudeau? 1740 01:21:26,280 --> 01:21:29,719 Speaker 2: I can't even say it anyway. It looks like maybe 1741 01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:33,880 Speaker 2: the seventeen year dispute is over. Now Katie Pierry is 1742 01:21:33,920 --> 01:21:35,920 Speaker 2: going to have to pay for Katy Pierry's legal costs. 1743 01:21:37,240 --> 01:21:40,040 Speaker 2: It is really frustrating. I lost s trek upright through. 1744 01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:42,000 Speaker 15: So which Katie called the other one? 1745 01:21:42,760 --> 01:21:44,639 Speaker 2: No, there was the singer was being horrible, right. 1746 01:21:44,640 --> 01:21:47,439 Speaker 15: Right, she just stayed Katie Hudson, we would never have 1747 01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:47,960 Speaker 15: to worry. 1748 01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:49,880 Speaker 2: About it, right, Hey, we're going to talk next to 1749 01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:52,639 Speaker 2: Jane Tibshraney. You remember that IOD was going to crack 1750 01:21:52,680 --> 01:21:55,839 Speaker 2: down on all those loans, shareholders and stuff. Yep, not anymore. 1751 01:21:55,960 --> 01:22:04,280 Speaker 1: That's next, everything from SMEs to the big corporates.

And 1759 01:22:24,040 --> 01:22:26,920 Speaker 2: ten minutes time, Heather, I'm sick of the stupid media, 1760 01:22:27,040 --> 01:22:29,800 Speaker 2: total tosses. Please don't give these idiots any oxygen. Just 1761 01:22:29,840 --> 01:22:34,760 Speaker 2: because he had no meetings doesn't mean he wasn't working. Yeah, 1762 01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:37,040 Speaker 2: you're definitely in the hostile media camp. I'll tell you 1763 01:22:37,120 --> 01:22:39,120 Speaker 2: what though, that is a fair point, right, just because 1764 01:22:39,120 --> 01:22:41,479 Speaker 2: you didn't have a meeting. I don't have meetings, I know. 1765 01:22:41,520 --> 01:22:43,560 Speaker 2: Actually that's a lie. I have meetings every day. I 1766 01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:45,599 Speaker 2: do have two meetings every day, but they're really quick 1767 01:22:45,640 --> 01:22:47,040 Speaker 2: and I don't think I put them in my diary. 1768 01:22:47,400 --> 01:22:52,439 Speaker 2: But just in fact, I would argue fewer meetings, more work, 1769 01:22:52,520 --> 01:22:53,920 Speaker 2: do you know what I mean? So he was cranking 1770 01:22:53,960 --> 01:22:55,920 Speaker 2: through the work because he wasn't meeting with anyone. Hey, 1771 01:22:56,040 --> 01:22:58,479 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to run you through the propaganda out 1772 01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:00,519 Speaker 2: of Iran. It's quite weird. So stand by twenty four 1773 01:23:00,520 --> 01:23:04,599 Speaker 2: away from seven. Here, the Duplessy allen An ird proposal 1774 01:23:04,680 --> 01:23:07,400 Speaker 2: to crack down on company loans to shareholders doesn't look 1775 01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:10,040 Speaker 2: like it's going to happen. To explain why, we're joined 1776 01:23:10,040 --> 01:23:14,439 Speaker 2: by The Herald's Wellington Business editor Gene tib Cheranny Hygiene. Hey, 1777 01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:17,160 Speaker 2: now this looks more like a decision that's being taken 1778 01:23:17,200 --> 01:23:19,559 Speaker 2: at the political level than Ird's level. Is that fair? 1779 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:22,840 Speaker 16: Well, Actually, there's been a bit of a turn of 1780 01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:26,559 Speaker 16: events here. In earlier this year and late last year, 1781 01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:32,519 Speaker 16: IRD consulted on basically cracking down on companies that lean 1782 01:23:32,640 --> 01:23:35,400 Speaker 16: money to shareholders, because if you do that, if I'm 1783 01:23:35,400 --> 01:23:39,080 Speaker 16: a shareholder and I get loans from the company that 1784 01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:41,439 Speaker 16: I have a shareholding in, I don't need to pay 1785 01:23:41,600 --> 01:23:44,360 Speaker 16: tax on that loan. So there could be instances where 1786 01:23:44,360 --> 01:23:47,080 Speaker 16: I'm receiving a loan, but actually I should be receiving 1787 01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:50,679 Speaker 16: dividends or income, and dividends and income would be taxed. 1788 01:23:50,960 --> 01:23:54,160 Speaker 16: So IRD recognized that, so it said, hey, maybe we 1789 01:23:54,200 --> 01:23:56,479 Speaker 16: should tax some of these, not all of them, but 1790 01:23:56,840 --> 01:23:59,040 Speaker 16: some of these loans are the big ones, particularly if 1791 01:23:59,040 --> 01:24:04,320 Speaker 16: they aren't repaid. So it consulted on that. It got 1792 01:24:04,439 --> 01:24:09,040 Speaker 16: feedback that, apparently, according to Nikola Willis today wasn't very positive. 1793 01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:13,280 Speaker 16: So the government has decided not to push on with 1794 01:24:13,960 --> 01:24:17,960 Speaker 16: taxing big loans that aren't repaid quickly. So that was 1795 01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:22,280 Speaker 16: one of id's initial proposals. So what happened with that 1796 01:24:22,520 --> 01:24:24,720 Speaker 16: was New Zealand First and ACT came out and said 1797 01:24:24,800 --> 01:24:26,960 Speaker 16: they didn't like it. Of course, you know, they don't 1798 01:24:26,960 --> 01:24:30,720 Speaker 16: want to upset shareholders small businesses, particularly in you know, 1799 01:24:30,840 --> 01:24:34,120 Speaker 16: forestry and property. That's where where this sort of arrangement 1800 01:24:34,200 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 16: is used quite a lot. So they said no. And 1801 01:24:36,439 --> 01:24:38,479 Speaker 16: today I took to Nichola Willis and she said no. 1802 01:24:38,760 --> 01:24:41,160 Speaker 16: She also doesn't think it's a good idea. 1803 01:24:41,840 --> 01:24:44,200 Speaker 2: And so as I, as I kind of intimated it 1804 01:24:44,240 --> 01:24:46,479 Speaker 2: has been taken, this decision is being taken at a 1805 01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:50,000 Speaker 2: political level. ACT also doesn't support it. New Zealand First 1806 01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:52,640 Speaker 2: doesn't support it, does Act have a point here that 1807 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:54,120 Speaker 2: it would lead to double taxation. 1808 01:24:56,080 --> 01:24:59,679 Speaker 16: Look, I think you know ACT has a similar view 1809 01:25:00,360 --> 01:25:03,439 Speaker 16: around double taxation in regard to this this issue as 1810 01:25:03,479 --> 01:25:05,519 Speaker 16: it does when it comes to like a capital gains 1811 01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:09,839 Speaker 16: tax for example. According to Nicola Willis, Inland Revenue decided 1812 01:25:09,920 --> 01:25:13,320 Speaker 16: its original proposal might have been an overkill or it 1813 01:25:13,520 --> 01:25:17,160 Speaker 16: was it was going too far. But speaking to her today, 1814 01:25:17,200 --> 01:25:19,240 Speaker 16: and this is sort of hot of the press that 1815 01:25:19,360 --> 01:25:22,360 Speaker 16: it hasn't even been written yet, but she said they 1816 01:25:22,400 --> 01:25:26,360 Speaker 16: were still wanting to look at instances where companies issue 1817 01:25:26,920 --> 01:25:31,040 Speaker 16: loans to shareholders and that's a way to funnel money 1818 01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:33,680 Speaker 16: out of a company and then that company is liquidated. 1819 01:25:34,240 --> 01:25:37,400 Speaker 16: So she recognized that was still an issue and they 1820 01:25:37,439 --> 01:25:40,599 Speaker 16: were still looking at how to address that now, whether 1821 01:25:40,720 --> 01:25:45,160 Speaker 16: that's addressed by you know, taxing the loans or something else. 1822 01:25:45,240 --> 01:25:47,639 Speaker 16: I think that's the issue they're still looking to work 1823 01:25:47,720 --> 01:25:53,439 Speaker 16: through now. She mentioned SPQR that fancy Auckland Ponsby Road 1824 01:25:53,520 --> 01:25:57,560 Speaker 16: restaurant that was liquidated. I think that was something that 1825 01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:01,280 Speaker 16: that might have you know, happened in that instance. So 1826 01:26:01,560 --> 01:26:04,000 Speaker 16: they have kind of closed the door on coming down 1827 01:26:04,080 --> 01:26:06,320 Speaker 16: with a big stick on this issue, but they're still 1828 01:26:06,360 --> 01:26:09,560 Speaker 16: looking at whether to fix the issue of you know, 1829 01:26:09,800 --> 01:26:12,360 Speaker 16: funneling money out of a company and then liquidating the company. 1830 01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:13,880 Speaker 2: Yeah too, right, I remember there was there was a 1831 01:26:13,920 --> 01:26:16,479 Speaker 2: fair amount of money, wasn't it was like that? Goodness, 1832 01:26:16,520 --> 01:26:18,160 Speaker 2: I feel like there was about one hundred thousand dollars 1833 01:26:18,200 --> 01:26:20,280 Speaker 2: that was owed to the owner of something with these SPQR. 1834 01:26:21,560 --> 01:26:25,560 Speaker 16: Yeah, just from memory, it might have been more. But 1835 01:26:25,800 --> 01:26:29,320 Speaker 16: you know, the use of these shareholder loans, like it 1836 01:26:29,400 --> 01:26:33,880 Speaker 16: sounds very niche, but at the moment, shareholders o companies 1837 01:26:33,960 --> 01:26:38,280 Speaker 16: twenty nine billion dollars, So that is twenty nine billion 1838 01:26:38,320 --> 01:26:39,840 Speaker 16: dollars is a lot of money, and you have to 1839 01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:41,960 Speaker 16: look at that and go, well, all of those genuine 1840 01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:47,160 Speaker 16: loans or is this loan arrangement being used to minimize 1841 01:26:47,360 --> 01:26:51,759 Speaker 16: tax builds one way or another. So I'll be interested 1842 01:26:51,840 --> 01:26:56,080 Speaker 16: to see exactly what id's feedback is on the feedback 1843 01:26:56,160 --> 01:27:01,240 Speaker 16: it received on its consultation, because the the experts I've 1844 01:27:01,320 --> 01:27:05,240 Speaker 16: spoken to have mixed views on this, Like they don't 1845 01:27:05,280 --> 01:27:07,599 Speaker 16: all agree with the politicians that this is an overkill, 1846 01:27:07,680 --> 01:27:11,679 Speaker 16: Like some of them do really think that the system 1847 01:27:11,800 --> 01:27:15,000 Speaker 16: is being brought it basically and people who should be 1848 01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:15,760 Speaker 16: paying tax are. 1849 01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:17,880 Speaker 2: Not interesting Yeah, it might have been a lot more 1850 01:27:17,920 --> 01:27:20,080 Speaker 2: than that, maybe one point four million. Thank you very much, 1851 01:27:20,200 --> 01:27:23,120 Speaker 2: Jane appreciated. Jane tub Trainey The Herald's Wellington Business edit 1852 01:27:23,200 --> 01:27:26,360 Speaker 2: a nineteen away from seven together for al So. The 1853 01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:30,080 Speaker 2: propaganda video from the Iranian regime that's been released about 1854 01:27:30,080 --> 01:27:32,800 Speaker 2: the war is quite bizarre because they've done the whole 1855 01:27:32,880 --> 01:27:36,360 Speaker 2: thing lego style, like the Lego movie. So it starts 1856 01:27:36,400 --> 01:27:38,559 Speaker 2: with a couple of Lego people. Actually there are three 1857 01:27:38,640 --> 01:27:40,880 Speaker 2: Lego people. There's Aneta Yahoo, there's a Donald Trump, and 1858 01:27:40,920 --> 01:27:43,719 Speaker 2: there's a devil and they're all looking at a folder 1859 01:27:44,160 --> 01:27:46,479 Speaker 2: entitled the Epstein File. And then they laugh and then 1860 01:27:46,520 --> 01:27:49,400 Speaker 2: Donald Trump Lego Donald hits a red button, sends a 1861 01:27:49,439 --> 01:27:52,200 Speaker 2: missile that then hits what appears to be a classroom 1862 01:27:52,240 --> 01:27:55,639 Speaker 2: with girls wearing pink head scarfs, and then the teacher 1863 01:27:55,640 --> 01:27:57,760 Speaker 2: writes on the board, my homeland is life, and then 1864 01:27:57,800 --> 01:28:00,479 Speaker 2: the board goes the screen goes dark, and the Iranian 1865 01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:03,000 Speaker 2: officer picks up a pink bag in the middle of 1866 01:28:03,080 --> 01:28:05,439 Speaker 2: the rubble of the strike and then cries, and then 1867 01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:08,360 Speaker 2: a sadness turns surage. It's all lego, and then it's 1868 01:28:08,400 --> 01:28:12,280 Speaker 2: got the Iranian Revolutionary Guards attacking American and Israeli assets. 1869 01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 2: You've got the British forces being bombed in Cyprus by 1870 01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:18,760 Speaker 2: little Lego jets. You've got American jets shot out of 1871 01:28:18,800 --> 01:28:21,679 Speaker 2: the sky. You've got a Lego Orthodox Jewish guy running 1872 01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:25,439 Speaker 2: away from the explosions. It's bizarre because Lego is generally 1873 01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:30,160 Speaker 2: fun and happy, and obviously, you know Lego people involved 1874 01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:32,760 Speaker 2: in a real life conflict is not at all fun 1875 01:28:32,800 --> 01:28:35,200 Speaker 2: and happy. However, if you're going to give it to 1876 01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:37,920 Speaker 2: the inn and credit where credit is due, I suppose 1877 01:28:38,080 --> 01:28:42,480 Speaker 2: in a very bizarre and macab way, making a propaganda 1878 01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:45,360 Speaker 2: video out of Lego men fighting with each other is 1879 01:28:45,520 --> 01:28:48,640 Speaker 2: probably more shareable on Instagram. Like if you were just 1880 01:28:48,720 --> 01:28:51,840 Speaker 2: doing aiver like the real life videos, I'm not going 1881 01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:53,479 Speaker 2: to share it, are we But with the Lego guys, 1882 01:28:53,680 --> 01:28:55,519 Speaker 2: like have you seen how weird this is? Send it 1883 01:28:55,600 --> 01:28:57,120 Speaker 2: to each other. So it's probably going to get more 1884 01:28:57,160 --> 01:29:00,400 Speaker 2: shareability on the with govies. By the way, because at 1885 01:29:00,439 --> 01:29:01,760 Speaker 2: the moment, I don't know if you've noticed this, but 1886 01:29:01,840 --> 01:29:03,559 Speaker 2: for the most part, like I want to say, ninety 1887 01:29:03,560 --> 01:29:07,200 Speaker 2: percent of the coverage on the weight loss jabs is positive. 1888 01:29:07,400 --> 01:29:09,960 Speaker 2: Great for your heart, great for you, You're scrolling on 1889 01:29:10,040 --> 01:29:11,400 Speaker 2: your phone. Now you don't want to do that. Great 1890 01:29:11,400 --> 01:29:13,280 Speaker 2: for your weight loss, great for this, great for Alzheimer's, 1891 01:29:13,280 --> 01:29:15,680 Speaker 2: great for all of the things. There is a potential 1892 01:29:15,800 --> 01:29:20,400 Speaker 2: significant side effect which is negative. Researchers reckon, you're more 1893 01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:22,599 Speaker 2: likely get it to get an eye stroke if you're 1894 01:29:22,680 --> 01:29:25,519 Speaker 2: using the wagovi than the ezempic, and it's like a fire. 1895 01:29:26,120 --> 01:29:29,000 Speaker 2: The risk of it is five times greater than using ozempic. 1896 01:29:29,360 --> 01:29:32,120 Speaker 2: And an eye stroke is when you suddenly lose your 1897 01:29:32,200 --> 01:29:36,160 Speaker 2: vision basically in some cases permanently because you have reduced 1898 01:29:36,160 --> 01:29:38,400 Speaker 2: blood flow to the optic nerve. This is a study 1899 01:29:38,439 --> 01:29:40,840 Speaker 2: that's been published in the British Journal of Ophthalmology, and 1900 01:29:40,960 --> 01:29:43,639 Speaker 2: apparently it's much worse for men. It's like three times 1901 01:29:43,680 --> 01:29:45,760 Speaker 2: greater at the risk for men than women. It is 1902 01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:49,040 Speaker 2: still rare, I should say one in ten thousand people. 1903 01:29:49,400 --> 01:29:50,800 Speaker 2: You know, like the odds are that you're not going 1904 01:29:50,880 --> 01:29:52,840 Speaker 2: to get it, and what it is basically because you'll 1905 01:29:52,840 --> 01:29:54,439 Speaker 2: be thinking, well, what's the difference between the two of them. 1906 01:29:54,479 --> 01:29:55,840 Speaker 2: They've both got the same stuff in there, they do, 1907 01:29:55,920 --> 01:29:59,160 Speaker 2: but the different it's different dosages, different formulations that makes 1908 01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:01,400 Speaker 2: the difference. Apparently seventeen away from seven. 1909 01:30:02,080 --> 01:30:04,760 Speaker 1: If it's to do with money, it matters to you. 1910 01:30:05,240 --> 01:30:09,320 Speaker 1: The Business Hour with Heather Duplicy Allen and Mayor's Insurance 1911 01:30:09,360 --> 01:30:12,200 Speaker 1: and Investments, Your futures in good Hands. 1912 01:30:12,720 --> 01:30:13,599 Speaker 3: News Talk ZIB. 1913 01:30:14,240 --> 01:30:16,719 Speaker 2: Hither did the Iranian video show a pile of thirty 1914 01:30:16,760 --> 01:30:19,519 Speaker 2: thousand lego figures being buried by the Iranian guards who 1915 01:30:19,560 --> 01:30:21,800 Speaker 2: shot them when they protested. No, funnily enough they lift 1916 01:30:21,840 --> 01:30:24,280 Speaker 2: that out of the video. Actually fourteen away from seven 1917 01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:28,400 Speaker 2: Gavin Gray UK correspondence with us Ellogevin hither have right? 1918 01:30:28,479 --> 01:30:30,000 Speaker 2: So tell me about the chep who's been jailed for 1919 01:30:30,040 --> 01:30:31,280 Speaker 2: being a member of his buller. 1920 01:30:32,640 --> 01:30:36,679 Speaker 7: Yes, this was in Germany and this man only described 1921 01:30:36,720 --> 01:30:40,280 Speaker 7: as fadal Z in line with German privacy laws, has 1922 01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:42,439 Speaker 7: been sentenced to six and a half years in prison 1923 01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:45,320 Speaker 7: for being a member of the Shia militia group hez Blah. 1924 01:30:45,920 --> 01:30:49,240 Speaker 7: The military wing is prescribed as a terrorist organization by 1925 01:30:49,320 --> 01:30:52,200 Speaker 7: the EU, and the thirty five year old was also 1926 01:30:52,280 --> 01:30:55,360 Speaker 7: found guilty of aiding and the betting, attempted murder and 1927 01:30:55,479 --> 01:30:59,560 Speaker 7: also other violations of European Union embargo relations.

So he had 1932 01:31:17,560 --> 01:31:21,360 Speaker 7: ordered some two thousand petrol and electric motors and over 1933 01:31:21,479 --> 01:31:24,720 Speaker 7: six hundred propellers. It was said in court he was 1934 01:31:24,760 --> 01:31:28,599 Speaker 7: a foreign operator for Hesbela and for the HESBA drones 1935 01:31:28,680 --> 01:31:31,799 Speaker 7: program since twenty twenty two, first of all in Spain 1936 01:31:32,600 --> 01:31:35,400 Speaker 7: and then started working in Germany. The products came in 1937 01:31:35,520 --> 01:31:39,560 Speaker 7: from Europe, China, United States and used front companies. He 1938 01:31:39,680 --> 01:31:42,680 Speaker 7: used front companies registering his own name or that of 1939 01:31:42,760 --> 01:31:46,479 Speaker 7: his contacts to place orders and suppliers were paid via 1940 01:31:46,720 --> 01:31:50,360 Speaker 7: these companies that he had set up, and two of 1941 01:31:50,479 --> 01:31:53,600 Speaker 7: the engines we definitely know two of the engines purchased 1942 01:31:53,640 --> 01:31:57,040 Speaker 7: by this ban were later used in explosive drones. 1943 01:31:56,760 --> 01:31:58,599 Speaker 3: That Hesbela fired at Israel. 1944 01:31:58,720 --> 01:32:00,960 Speaker 7: So I think it just goes to show some of 1945 01:32:01,400 --> 01:32:04,960 Speaker 7: the more covert things happening in Europe to do with 1946 01:32:05,240 --> 01:32:06,600 Speaker 7: Iran currently going on. 1947 01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:10,840 Speaker 2: Devin. Have they explained why they've beenned this match for 1948 01:32:10,960 --> 01:32:12,200 Speaker 2: Sunday and what the risk was. 1949 01:32:13,840 --> 01:32:17,519 Speaker 7: Well, the government is very aware that there is a 1950 01:32:17,760 --> 01:32:21,479 Speaker 7: march being planned. It's called the annual Al Kutz Day, 1951 01:32:22,320 --> 01:32:26,080 Speaker 7: and it's seen as pro Iranian. Now the organizers say no, no, no, no, 1952 01:32:26,240 --> 01:32:30,760 Speaker 7: this is pro Palestinian. They're basically saying it is an 1953 01:32:30,840 --> 01:32:34,560 Speaker 7: annual event in which we try to highlight some of 1954 01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:38,840 Speaker 7: the ways in which Palestinians are being attacked or at 1955 01:32:38,960 --> 01:32:42,679 Speaker 7: least life made very very difficult for them around the world. 1956 01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:46,240 Speaker 7: But police certainly received intel legends there was going to 1957 01:32:46,320 --> 01:32:49,439 Speaker 7: be counter protest marches that a lot of it was 1958 01:32:49,520 --> 01:32:52,160 Speaker 7: going to be around the current action we're seeing in 1959 01:32:52,240 --> 01:32:55,320 Speaker 7: the Middle East and Iran, and that's why they were 1960 01:32:55,400 --> 01:32:57,719 Speaker 7: so worried about it. Now a march on the move, 1961 01:32:58,280 --> 01:33:01,519 Speaker 7: of course, becomes that much more difficult to protest. So 1962 01:33:01,640 --> 01:33:04,160 Speaker 7: the government has used powers that they've not used since 1963 01:33:04,240 --> 01:33:07,720 Speaker 7: twenty twelve in order to effectively ban the march. What 1964 01:33:07,840 --> 01:33:10,960 Speaker 7: they've said instead is you can hold a demonstration, but 1965 01:33:11,080 --> 01:33:12,880 Speaker 7: it needs to be in a single place, and you 1966 01:33:13,000 --> 01:33:15,880 Speaker 7: need to stay in that place, and it's under strict conditions. 1967 01:33:16,200 --> 01:33:18,840 Speaker 7: Now the organizers of the march are saying this is 1968 01:33:19,240 --> 01:33:23,000 Speaker 7: against our really free speech. This government is going against 1969 01:33:23,080 --> 01:33:26,679 Speaker 7: its own policies saying we want free speech in this country, 1970 01:33:26,960 --> 01:33:29,520 Speaker 7: but others are saying no, it was far too dangerous 1971 01:33:29,760 --> 01:33:32,800 Speaker 7: to have something on the march on the go through 1972 01:33:32,960 --> 01:33:36,800 Speaker 7: London which could easily splinter into different areas as people 1973 01:33:36,920 --> 01:33:40,160 Speaker 7: go through different streets. It would have become almost impossible 1974 01:33:40,400 --> 01:33:42,439 Speaker 7: for them to police. They have said they have policed 1975 01:33:42,479 --> 01:33:44,720 Speaker 7: it in the past that this year they believe it 1976 01:33:44,720 --> 01:33:47,679 Speaker 7: would have been very, very dangerous because of the current 1977 01:33:47,800 --> 01:33:50,280 Speaker 7: action and war in Iran. 1978 01:33:50,560 --> 01:33:53,040 Speaker 2: Now, Gevin, you decided for me, do you reckon fourteen 1979 01:33:53,200 --> 01:33:55,960 Speaker 2: hundred pounds to go and see Megan? Speakers a little 1980 01:33:56,000 --> 01:33:56,880 Speaker 2: on the steep side. 1981 01:33:57,880 --> 01:34:02,320 Speaker 7: Well, I thought you should go on an investigative weekend Factory. 1982 01:34:02,439 --> 01:34:06,120 Speaker 7: So the Chess of Sussex is headlining a women only 1983 01:34:06,320 --> 01:34:10,120 Speaker 7: retreat in Sydney Coogie Beach. To be more precise, if 1984 01:34:10,160 --> 01:34:13,240 Speaker 7: you fancy it, it's nearly three thousand New Zealand dollars 1985 01:34:13,280 --> 01:34:16,360 Speaker 7: per person. It's a three day event during which Meghan 1986 01:34:17,800 --> 01:34:22,000 Speaker 7: will basically have a girl's weekend like no other. It's 1987 01:34:22,040 --> 01:34:26,200 Speaker 7: been described at a very small select group aimed at 1988 01:34:26,320 --> 01:34:29,479 Speaker 7: women trying to be their best selves. Not quite sure 1989 01:34:29,520 --> 01:34:31,160 Speaker 7: what that means. I'm sure you can explain it to 1990 01:34:31,800 --> 01:34:36,120 Speaker 7: It's an unforgettable weekend for women ready to reconnect, recharge 1991 01:34:36,400 --> 01:34:40,439 Speaker 7: and have some serious fun. And apparently it includes sessions 1992 01:34:40,479 --> 01:34:45,960 Speaker 7: with a psychologist, some yoga, sound healing, a disco and 1993 01:34:46,200 --> 01:34:51,360 Speaker 7: a meditation and manifestation session. Now, the last visit held 1994 01:34:51,479 --> 01:34:55,719 Speaker 7: by Harry and Meghan to Australia was in twenty eighteen. Recently, 1995 01:34:56,280 --> 01:35:00,320 Speaker 7: just after that they announced that they were expecting a child. 1996 01:35:00,479 --> 01:35:03,439 Speaker 7: Megan was pregnant, but of course the couple stepped down 1997 01:35:03,560 --> 01:35:08,960 Speaker 7: from from basically Yeah Royal the WROTA duties in January 1998 01:35:09,000 --> 01:35:11,280 Speaker 7: twenty twenty. So it's interesting that they're going back there 1999 01:35:11,320 --> 01:35:14,600 Speaker 7: as part of their sort of private world tour and 2000 01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:16,960 Speaker 7: we'll wait to see exactly how this weekend pass out. 2001 01:35:17,479 --> 01:35:21,519 Speaker 2: You had me at manifestation session. I thought that's a 2002 01:35:21,560 --> 01:35:23,719 Speaker 2: bit of me for the entire weekend. Thank you, Gavin. 2003 01:35:24,120 --> 01:35:28,280 Speaker 2: Gavin Gray, UK Correspondent. Listen, here's a twist I reckon. 2004 01:35:28,360 --> 01:35:31,639 Speaker 2: This is getting more and more interesting with every little 2005 01:35:31,720 --> 01:35:33,600 Speaker 2: update we've got. I've got another twist for you in 2006 01:35:33,640 --> 01:35:35,920 Speaker 2: the radio duo story out of Australia. You know the 2007 01:35:36,000 --> 01:35:39,000 Speaker 2: young I'm talking about this is Kyle Sanderlan's Jackie o'henderson 2008 01:35:39,040 --> 01:35:41,559 Speaker 2: who had the big old fight and then as a result, 2009 01:35:41,640 --> 01:35:44,000 Speaker 2: suddenly the show was off and the cancel the contract. 2010 01:35:44,000 --> 01:35:46,080 Speaker 2: The two hundred million dollars ten year contract was going 2011 01:35:46,120 --> 01:35:48,519 Speaker 2: to be canceling and blah blah blah. Someone has spoken 2012 01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:51,840 Speaker 2: to The Daily Mail on their behalf if it's not 2013 01:35:51,960 --> 01:35:54,360 Speaker 2: one of the pair of them, and said that they 2014 01:35:54,400 --> 01:35:57,760 Speaker 2: are reportedly back in regular contact and they would like 2015 01:35:57,840 --> 01:36:00,160 Speaker 2: to fight to go back on the radio after that 2016 01:36:00,240 --> 01:36:04,400 Speaker 2: big bust up. What's happened, which is fascinating is that 2017 01:36:04,560 --> 01:36:06,920 Speaker 2: she apparently got so she put out She put out 2018 01:36:06,920 --> 01:36:09,760 Speaker 2: her statement, She said, I didn't resign. I don't want 2019 01:36:09,760 --> 01:36:11,760 Speaker 2: to give up the show. Then he put out a 2020 01:36:11,880 --> 01:36:14,679 Speaker 2: statement and was like, yeah, I don't want to resign. 2021 01:36:14,800 --> 01:36:16,680 Speaker 2: I don't want to give up the show. Then she 2022 01:36:16,880 --> 01:36:19,479 Speaker 2: got in contact with him, she was like, Hey, should 2023 01:36:19,479 --> 01:36:21,879 Speaker 2: we go back on the show. And then they realized 2024 01:36:21,920 --> 01:36:24,760 Speaker 2: between the two of them that their employer, Arn had 2025 01:36:24,840 --> 01:36:27,639 Speaker 2: told each of them that the other party didn't want 2026 01:36:27,640 --> 01:36:30,760 Speaker 2: to hear from each other. So they said to Jackie, yeah, 2027 01:36:30,960 --> 01:36:32,679 Speaker 2: Kyle doesn't want to hear from you. And they said 2028 01:36:32,680 --> 01:36:34,840 Speaker 2: to Kyle, yeah, Jackie doesn't want to hear from you. 2029 01:36:35,240 --> 01:36:40,679 Speaker 2: MM more and more curious isn't it seven away from seven? 2030 01:36:42,040 --> 01:36:45,439 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Topers Allen Drive Full Show podcast on 2031 01:36:45,680 --> 01:36:48,160 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio powered by Newstalk Zebbi. 2032 01:36:49,200 --> 01:36:49,439 Speaker 3: Heather. 2033 01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:53,120 Speaker 2: The Iranian regime with that video is obviously appealing to 2034 01:36:53,200 --> 01:36:55,760 Speaker 2: a certain group who appealed to the fluffy Disney lego 2035 01:36:55,840 --> 01:36:59,160 Speaker 2: building pokemon collecting numpties that will eventually hold the majority 2036 01:36:59,160 --> 01:37:02,360 Speaker 2: of the vote when they're old enough to vote. Maybe so, 2037 01:37:03,080 --> 01:37:05,800 Speaker 2: maybe so, Andre listen, I don't know that I'm worried 2038 01:37:05,800 --> 01:37:08,160 Speaker 2: about this. I mean, on first, at first, blush, you 2039 01:37:08,240 --> 01:37:10,280 Speaker 2: probably should be. There's an outfit called the Center for 2040 01:37:10,400 --> 01:37:14,840 Speaker 2: Research Evaluation and Social Assessment CRASER, which reckons about ninety 2041 01:37:14,880 --> 01:37:16,760 Speaker 2: percent of homes in New Zealand are in need of 2042 01:37:16,840 --> 01:37:20,960 Speaker 2: immediate maintenance and it would cost us twenty seven billion dollars. 2043 01:37:21,479 --> 01:37:24,800 Speaker 2: Says freaking you out, eh, because they're counting any home 2044 01:37:24,920 --> 01:37:28,200 Speaker 2: that doesn't operate well, loses heat or gets too warm. 2045 01:37:28,520 --> 01:37:30,559 Speaker 2: Why I don't care about that is because that's my house. 2046 01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:32,520 Speaker 2: Because the other day I was looking at the byfolds 2047 01:37:32,840 --> 01:37:34,439 Speaker 2: and there's something I don't know what's gone on. I've 2048 01:37:34,439 --> 01:37:35,880 Speaker 2: had a guy around a couple of times to have 2049 01:37:35,880 --> 01:37:37,120 Speaker 2: a look at it. I've had a crack at it. 2050 01:37:37,200 --> 01:37:39,360 Speaker 2: We can't quite figure it out, but it's about byfolds 2051 01:37:39,360 --> 01:37:41,639 Speaker 2: are hanging a bit funny, and so they're just slumping 2052 01:37:41,680 --> 01:37:43,040 Speaker 2: a little bit to the left, and so there's a 2053 01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:47,240 Speaker 2: like a crack and I reckon, it's one millimeter at 2054 01:37:47,240 --> 01:37:49,320 Speaker 2: the top, like I see the daylight through it. And 2055 01:37:49,400 --> 01:37:51,840 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, this heat loss happening. Yeah, and 2056 01:37:51,880 --> 01:37:53,960 Speaker 2: then I just carried on with my life. But I'm 2057 01:37:54,000 --> 01:37:56,080 Speaker 2: in there, and I reckon, I'd use up at least 2058 01:37:56,120 --> 01:37:58,200 Speaker 2: one million of the twenty seven billion just trying to 2059 01:37:58,240 --> 01:37:59,880 Speaker 2: repair those doors. What by the time I'm done with it. 2060 01:38:00,040 --> 01:38:01,800 Speaker 2: So that's why I'm not worried, but maybe you should be. 2061 01:38:02,000 --> 01:38:03,560 Speaker 2: So I'm just giving it to your aunt's. 2062 01:38:03,800 --> 01:38:06,120 Speaker 15: Ex girlfriend by No Doubt to play us out tonight. 2063 01:38:06,840 --> 01:38:09,600 Speaker 15: Gwen Stefani from No Doubt. She's spoken about why she 2064 01:38:09,680 --> 01:38:12,000 Speaker 15: turned to Christianity. She converted to Christianity when she was 2065 01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:14,920 Speaker 15: about forty four, and apparently basically it was because she 2066 01:38:14,960 --> 01:38:16,560 Speaker 15: had a baby. She was forty four years old. She 2067 01:38:16,640 --> 01:38:18,880 Speaker 15: really wanted a third kid and was pretty convinced that 2068 01:38:18,880 --> 01:38:20,000 Speaker 15: she wasn't gonna be able to get one because she 2069 01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:22,639 Speaker 15: was forty four but I noticed her son was praying 2070 01:38:22,680 --> 01:38:23,800 Speaker 15: for her to have one, so she's like, oh, I'll 2071 01:38:23,800 --> 01:38:25,719 Speaker 15: give it a try as well. And then it happened. 2072 01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:28,439 Speaker 15: So she basically she said it was her first miracle. 2073 01:38:28,560 --> 01:38:30,200 Speaker 2: You know that happens a lot. It happens a lot 2074 01:38:30,240 --> 01:38:32,840 Speaker 2: to women. They have a baby and like they fall 2075 01:38:32,880 --> 01:38:34,280 Speaker 2: pregnant and then they go back to God. 2076 01:38:34,560 --> 01:38:35,240 Speaker 10: Well there you go. 2077 01:38:35,479 --> 01:38:37,919 Speaker 2: Yeah in this case as well. Yeah, because you realize, 2078 01:38:38,120 --> 01:38:40,680 Speaker 2: you realize, how should we get deeper meaning for it? 2079 01:38:40,720 --> 01:38:44,200 Speaker 2: Probably not a oh you've teased this sound Well you've realized. 2080 01:38:44,280 --> 01:38:46,840 Speaker 2: You just realize that life is a miracle when you 2081 01:38:46,960 --> 01:38:49,760 Speaker 2: fall pregnant and that you're just so bloody lucky and 2082 01:38:49,880 --> 01:38:51,439 Speaker 2: then you go through and then yeah. 2083 01:38:51,560 --> 01:38:52,720 Speaker 15: Not a happy note in the show. 2084 01:38:52,760 --> 01:38:53,680 Speaker 8: On Hi, that's very nice. 2085 01:38:53,840 --> 01:38:55,760 Speaker 2: You are lucky though, aren't you.
