On Friday, twenty two countries and 38 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 3: by now over thirty countries have committed to come together 39 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 3: to discuss to what to where an amendment. But it 40 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 3: comes to making sure that the sea lanes stay open. 41 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 3: And this is exactly also to the request person than Trump. 42 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 2: I'll give you the var and the van in a second, 43 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 2: the numbers from NATO on how much they've actually managed 44 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 2: to increase the spinning buy that's coming in just a second. 45 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 2: Avenues this morning National Olympic Committee. I see his limited 46 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: female event eligibility to only biological females. 47 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 6: The policy that we have announced is based on science 48 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 6: and it has been led by medical experts with the 49 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 6: best interest of athletes at its heart. The scientific evidence 50 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 6: is very clear male chromosomes give performance advantages that rely 51 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 6: on strength, power or endurance. 52 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines on a early edition with 53 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and one roof Love where you Live Us Talks, a'd. 54 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 2: Be very good morning, eight minutes after five. So the 55 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,079 Speaker 2: numbers on NATO are there and managed to increase their 56 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 2: spending last year by twenty percent and that's wow, congratulations 57 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 2: Pad on the back. This is Europe and Canada increased 58 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 2: their spending by twenty percent in the last year. And 59 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 2: this is what Rutter's been telling his NATO meeting overnight. 60 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 2: And the problem with that sounding good is that it's 61 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 2: not actually that great when you look at the fact 62 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 2: that they are now only just meeting their two percent 63 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,519 Speaker 2: of GDP goal that they set back in twenty fourteen. 64 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 2: And you'll remember that last year they had another summit 65 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 2: and they said we will hit five percent of GDP. Well, 66 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 2: if they promised in twenty fourteen to hit two percent, 67 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 2: and what are we now twenty twenty six and they've 68 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 2: just hit it. Then the five percent they promised us 69 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 2: last year, we should probably get in what twenty thirty eight, 70 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 2: so we'll look forward to that. By the way, you're 71 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 2: getting an update today from Nichola Willis on the fuel 72 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 2: alert level system. That'll be fun anyway. Don't worry if 73 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 2: you are worried, and I don't think you'll be worried, 74 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 2: but if you were worrying, we're not going into one 75 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 2: of the alert levels. She's just telling us what the 76 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 2: rules are and what will trigger them. Interesting when you 77 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 2: look at diesel, A lot of talk this week about 78 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: diesel and how much we use it and the country 79 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 2: runs on it, etc. So Australia far more reliant on 80 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 2: diesel and they have massive subset is. In fact, they've 81 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: got about eleven billion Australian dollars worth of subsidies. Most 82 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 2: of it goes to the miners, but you need to 83 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,119 Speaker 2: get from pretty far out way back in the outback 84 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 2: into the city. So they use a lot of diesel 85 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 2: in Australia seven point seven barrels per person per year, 86 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 2: so that's twelve hundred liters per person just to keep 87 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 2: your outback going. In New Zealand we use seven hundred 88 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 2: and forty liters per person, so they use way more 89 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 2: than us. We're about the same as the US and Germany. 90 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 2: So when they talk about a diesel shortage, that's why 91 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 2: the Aussies get so freaked out. And in a little 92 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 2: update on Air New Zealand for you this morning, because 93 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 2: we've told you was it last week? We told you 94 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: about the flight disruptions and the cancelations that they were doing. 95 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 2: So for syth Bar analysts, they've come out with some 96 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 2: new numbers for them. They reckon potential pre tax losses 97 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 2: across the current year and next year totally half a 98 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 2: billion dollars. This is their latest estimate. Andy Balley has 99 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 2: done this and Hugh Lockwood both with forsyth Bar very good. 100 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 2: So at the moment because of the there's a lag 101 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 2: with the fuel contracts, means their cash costs have only 102 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: modestly gone up to date but likely will material materially 103 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 2: start to increase from April. So this is the numbers 104 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 2: that they remember they had a forty million dollar pre 105 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 2: tax loss sorry after tax loss that they announced recently 106 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 2: well for the year to June twenty six. These guys 107 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 2: reckon Air New Zealand's underlying after tax loss will hit 108 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 2: two hundred and twenty six million. For twenty twenty seven, 109 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 2: they reckon that will hit one hundred and forty eight million, 110 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 2: and by twenty twenty eight, fingers crossed God, willing on 111 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 2: a hope and a prayer, they'll be back to profit. 112 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: Rail Bridge twelve after five views, talk ZAIDB the Tom 113 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 2: Phillips documentary. We're about to talk when we come back 114 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 2: from the break, we'll talk to somebody about this. But 115 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 2: I do you care? I don't care. Of course, it's 116 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 2: going to be on a Netflix. Netflix is where people 117 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 2: watch stuff. So does that surprising? And let's not forget 118 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 2: I think the thing that people always forget about this. 119 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 2: It's not like Tom Phillips was killed. Tom Phillips died 120 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 2: and then the documentary suddenly started. They hadn't caught him 121 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 2: when the documentary started. So wouldn't we want the publicity? 122 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 2: You know, wouldn't we want the attention? Wouldn't police want 123 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 2: the attention? Wouldn't the family want the attention? Let's try 124 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 2: and find them. Let's try and find the kids. Film 125 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: after five. 126 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 1: On your radio and online on Iheard Radio Early Edition 127 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: with Ryan Bridge and One Roof Love Where You Live. 128 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 2: News talks had been five fourteen. Good morning to you. 129 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 2: The OECD's updated numbers on the UK and the impact 130 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 2: of what's happening in the Middle East, and the UK 131 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 2: economy is going to suffer the worst in terms of 132 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 2: growth in the G twenty so their GDP now expected 133 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 2: to grow just zero point seven percent this year. That 134 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 2: is down half a percent from one point two percent. 135 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 2: This is all to do with the Middle East and 136 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 2: their inflation. They were expecting two and a half percent, 137 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 2: now going to average four percent according to this latest report. 138 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 2: We speak to Vincent out of London. 139 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: Before quarter to Brian Bridge. 140 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 2: The featured documentary about Tom Phillips is going to be 141 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 2: on Netflix. Is anyone surprised to hear this? The cops 142 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 2: gave the film crew access. Some journals aren't happy. James 143 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 2: Hollings is Massive University journalism program lead and former news 144 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 2: editor with me this morning. James, Good morning, Good morning, Ryan. 145 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 2: How are you great to talk to you? Very well, 146 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 2: Thank you. So the new bit in the story is 147 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 2: the Netflix link? Does that actually change much? Do you think? 148 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 7: I think it does actually and I think there's some 149 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 7: concerns that we should have really because we have. I 150 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 7: think the people that are making the documentary they're acting 151 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 7: in their own sort of interests, which is fine, and 152 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 7: they've applied and they've been given permission by the police 153 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 7: everything else, and they've taken a punt and they've and 154 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 7: they've done very well out of it. But the problem 155 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 7: is is that it's going to be broadcast overseas, and 156 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 7: this as I guess most journalists known, most of the 157 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,679 Speaker 7: genders probably know, there's an awful lot of legal tangle 158 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 7: around this case and a lot of suppressions around it 159 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 7: because of the way that it involves children and anything else, 160 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 7: and we don't really know how that's going to play 161 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 7: out overseas. I mean, is the he's in a law 162 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 7: going to be a respected in the way that it's 163 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 7: it's made and as it's broadcast. So, for example, there's 164 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 7: a whole of the things that us on journalists weren't 165 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 7: able to talk about and say about this case because 166 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 7: of the legal suppression around the family and everything else 167 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 7: that can apply to an overseas streamer. 168 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,439 Speaker 2: Do you think, James, do you think they could make 169 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 2: two versions of it, one that we get and one 170 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 2: that the rest of the world gets, Or are they 171 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 2: doing one version that abides by our rules, and you're 172 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 2: worried about how other media might react overseas and what 173 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 2: digging they might do. 174 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 7: Well, we don't know. It hasn't been spelt out. Nothing's 175 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 7: been said by the police about that about how they 176 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 7: intend to sort of safeguard and make sure it conforms 177 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 7: with New Zealand law. So that's one issue. The other 178 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 7: issue is that it's a really poor, poor decision by 179 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 7: police to do this, I think, and you can see 180 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 7: why that they're so embarrassed and that to sit there 181 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 7: thoughts so hard not to have it came out that 182 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 7: it was Netflix that's doing it, because it's a poor 183 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 7: look and it's a bad decision by police to completely 184 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 7: sideline all the New Zealand's journalists and broadcasters in favor 185 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 7: of an overseas commercial entity, basically sell off what is 186 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 7: really privileged public information to an overseas broadcaster will not 187 00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 7: sell it and give it away. 188 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 2: In the fact, what information are you talking about. You're 189 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 2: talking about the access that the film crew got, because 190 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 2: do we know that New Zealand media asked and were declined? 191 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 7: Well, I don't know that, but it will be supposed 192 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 7: to heat in theirst. 193 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, James, appreciate your trying this morning. 194 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 3: Thank you. 195 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 2: James Hollings, Mass University journalism program lead and former news editor. 196 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 2: Nine ninety two is the number to text on that 197 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 2: your thoughts? Does the fact that it's Netflix and it's 198 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 2: international does that sit of sway your view on it? 199 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 2: I guess eighteen minutes after five you're on news Talk 200 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 2: ZB and we're back in a second. Auckland's getting a 201 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 2: new cruise terminal. 202 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: News and views you trust to start your day. It's 203 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: earlier this ship with Ryan Bridge and one roof love 204 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: where you live news talks. 205 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 2: I'd be twenty one after five at a update on 206 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 2: Trump and his visit to China, which was meant to 207 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 2: happen earlier but now being delayed. They have given some 208 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 2: dates the fourteenth to the fifteenth of May. Of course, 209 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 2: the war's delayed things. So visit is going to take place. 210 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 2: She will meet Trump. They will be in Beijing. Our 211 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 2: first year as president, nearly ten years. Remember Obami used 212 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 2: to love a China trip. I think he had three. 213 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 2: I was there for one of them back in twenty fourteen, 214 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 2: but I think he had three during his time as 215 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 2: president across both terms. Bryan Bridge, Downtown Auckland's getting a 216 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 2: new cruise terminal. Port of Auckland's doing it two hundred 217 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 2: million bucks. They Reckon opens March twenty twenty seven. Potential 218 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 2: to double ship calls to one hundred and sixty a year, 219 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 2: could add an extra one hundred thousand terrorists as well. 220 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,439 Speaker 2: Jackie Lloyd, New Zealand Cruiz Association CEO, with me this morning, Jackie, 221 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning Ryan. So how big is this? 222 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 2: How big of a deal is this? 223 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 8: This is a game changer, really is for Auckland and 224 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 8: also for New Zealand. We're absolutely thrilled that Porter is 225 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 8: going through with this work. And from a cruise industry 226 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 8: point of view, it really shows that New Zealand and 227 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 8: Auckland welcomes and wants cruise lines. 228 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 2: What bit changes is it the four and a half 229 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,599 Speaker 2: thousand plus the big ships. 230 00:11:58,280 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 8: It's a bit of a mix of all. I mean, 231 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 8: certainly they can go up to four and a half thousand, 232 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 8: but certainly my understanding is smaller ships can still use 233 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 8: the space as well. But what it does is it 234 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 8: creates a dedicated welcome area to people visiting New Zealand. 235 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 8: That are disembarking off ships. Currently they're using temporary locations 236 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 8: that have to sort of be built in the morning 237 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 8: and taken down in the afternoon. We've got a really 238 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 8: a dedicated welcome and a dedicated infrastructure for cruise which 239 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 8: is fantastic. 240 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 2: Does it look a bit pozzo when they get off 241 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: at the moment? 242 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 8: Well, let's just put it this way. We've been using 243 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 8: temporary space for the last twenty years. If you think 244 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 8: that where cruise lines coming at Princess Wharf, theyre using 245 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 8: the Hilton's conference space that was really supposed to be 246 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 8: a temporary effects back in the early two thousands and 247 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 8: here in twenty twenty six we're still using it. So 248 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 8: to have that dedicated space where MPI, where customs can 249 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 8: be based full term, and also to have a welcoming 250 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 8: check in area and dedicated space for coaches and buses 251 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 8: and also for taxis is real. 252 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:04,679 Speaker 2: Important, fantastic. It includes the new Bledislow North Wharf. Where's that? 253 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 8: So that from my understanding is about two three across 254 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 8: to the east of Queenswarf so still very much in 255 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 8: walking distance from downtown Auckland, which is a key part 256 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 8: of the positivity I guess of cruise lines coming into Auckland, 257 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 8: they can have passengers that walk directly off the ship 258 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 8: and straight into town to go shopping, to go to hotels, 259 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 8: to go to retail and or so to hospitality. 260 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 2: Has part of the project like do we have a 261 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 2: problem with attracting tourists who want to come cruising here 262 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,839 Speaker 2: or has the problem being just our facilities that the 263 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 2: companies that run the ships actually don't want to go 264 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 2: and have a temporary you know, lift of steers coming 265 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: to pick them up. 266 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 8: Look, it's a little bit of a mix of from 267 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 8: an infrastructure point of view and from a welcome point 268 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 8: of view. So there is still a really strong interest 269 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 8: in cruis is coming to New Zealand. You know, cruise 270 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 8: at the moment is around thirty seven million cruise passengers globally. 271 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 8: That's up from thirteen million back in twenty ten, so 272 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 8: it's a huge growth. But what we have been is 273 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 8: probably quite an unwelcoming country for the last wee while 274 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 8: we've had changes and costs and increases, we're at changes 275 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 8: and regulations and we've not really looked like we wanted 276 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 8: to have the cruise industry and cruise passengers in our 277 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 8: in our areas, and this dedicated terminal for cruise and 278 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 8: a cruise birth in Auckland really really does change that 279 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 8: mindset for the cruise sign. 280 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 2: Brilliant Jackie. Good to talk to you this morning, as 281 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 2: always Jackie Lloyd, New Zealand Cruise Association CEO. So three 282 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 2: hundred thousand tourists we get on cruise ships coming into 283 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 2: Auckland at the moment they reckon could be up to 284 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 2: another one hundred thousand as a result of this, so 285 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 2: fantastic good news this morning on a Friday, twenty five 286 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 2: after five. Next Trump and raining on our parade The 287 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 2: early edition. 288 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: Full show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by News Dogs at ME. 289 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 2: Five twenty seven News Talks there'd be for the second 290 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 2: year in a row now Donald Trump has basically rained 291 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 2: on the parade that is our economic recovery. The economists 292 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 2: this week have being busy beavering away updating their economic forecast, 293 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 2: so we can kiss goodbye to up to a third 294 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 2: of our growth for the year. What was about three 295 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 2: percent is now about two percent. It's groundhog day. This 296 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 2: is exactly what happened last year with the tariffs. Remember, 297 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 2: of course, you do the recovery begins in earnest there 298 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 2: are signs of life, and then Trump posts on truth 299 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 2: social and the world comes crashing down around him. If 300 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 2: Karmala Harris was in the White House controversial hot take. 301 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 2: If Karmala Harris was in the White House, our economy 302 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 2: would probably be up on the foils by now. Recession 303 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 2: would be a distant memory. Life probably would be better 304 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 2: for your average Kiwi. Now. A Harris presidency could arguably 305 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 2: have been much worse for Americans and their fortunes, but 306 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 2: who cares. We live here. The question is whether the 307 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 2: midterm elections are actually going to change anything for Trump 308 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 2: and the and by extension, US, and the answer is 309 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 2: basically no. Even if the Republicans lose the midterms, Trump 310 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 2: still has the power to start wars and do tariffs. 311 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 2: The courts have slapped down some of them, but he's 312 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 2: found other ways of doing things other ways around it. 313 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 2: Trump is the commander in chief and doesn't need Congress 314 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 2: to blow stuff up. He didn't with Iran. No sign 315 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 2: off for the blockade in Venezuela. Same goes for deposing 316 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 2: Maduro threatening Greenland. Under the US Constitution, the military reports 317 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 2: to the president. As for the tariffs. You just find 318 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 2: some national security reasons to impose them. There's an unfair 319 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 2: trade imbalance, there's offensinal crisis. Whatever, you're in business. So 320 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 2: for those hoping that November's midterm elections would put Trump 321 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 2: back in a box and keep a lid on his tactics, 322 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 2: you're out of luck. Sure, hostile Congress has more power. 323 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 2: They can withhold funding for wars, they can create legal 324 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 2: problems for tariffs, but there is no silver bullet to 325 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 2: the executive powers which Trump is using and we're paying for. 326 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 2: He's two from two years and rocking the boat, and 327 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,120 Speaker 2: there's no real reason to think the next two will 328 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 2: be much different. Bridge, So buckle up, basically, strap yourselves 329 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,120 Speaker 2: in and get used to the new world. Twenty nine 330 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 2: minutes after five year on news Talks, here'b Chris Hopkins 331 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 2: is in some trouble this morning.

Now, Chris Hipkins, so you know the 356 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 2: Royal Commission of Inquiry the second phase of the Royal 357 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 2: Commission into COVID, and it found that there was some 358 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:43,199 Speaker 2: advice floating around about the risk of my card ditis, 359 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 2: which is basically inflaming your heart, the risk to teenagers 360 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 2: from taking a second jab, So that was floating around 361 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 2: in the Royal Commission's report. But the Royal Commission said 362 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 2: that that advice was never delivered to Ministers I Hipkins 363 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 2: and Verel, who were the then ministers responsible, never given to 364 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 2: them so that they could make a decision about where 365 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 2: the teenagers should get the second jab. You know, where 366 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 2: the parents should be told, whether the kids should be told, Hey, 367 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 2: if you get the second jab, there's actually a bit 368 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 2: of a risk of your heart in flaming, which presumably 369 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 2: many of them wouldn't have gone for now the hero 370 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 2: there is a cabinet paper that exists that the Royal 371 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 2: Commission didn't get their hands on, and you think how 372 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,479 Speaker 2: long did they spend how much money? Anyway, the Herald 373 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 2: got it. Derek Ching at the Herald has got his 374 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 2: hands on this paper. So what the paper shows you 375 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 2: is that there was advice to Hipkins. In fact, there 376 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 2: was a cabinet paper in Hipkins's name from March twenty 377 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 2: twenty two that included advice on that very question. So 378 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 2: Labour's response so far has been basically to say the 379 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 2: Royal Commission has found we didn't know, we weren't told, etc. 380 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 2: This cabinet paper calls that into question. At the time, 381 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 2: thirty thousand kids hadn't had their second JAB and we're 382 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 2: subject to mandates to have the JAB. So that is 383 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 2: a very big question mark hanging over Chris Hipkins this 384 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 2: morning twenty two away from by the way, you can 385 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 2: read the full story I don't do, encourage you to 386 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 2: do it Zed Herald dot co dot NZ Ryan it'll 387 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 2: away from six. Let's go to our reporters, Color and 388 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 2: dneedan morning colorm morning, right, what's the latest with full 389 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 2: sythe bar Stadium. 390 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 10: Well Danedan Venues, which runs the stadiums unveiled a capacity 391 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 10: reduction system for the venue which sees them using retractable 392 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 10: curtains to transform the stadium into four different sized venues. 393 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 10: So the stadium with these curtains will be able to 394 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 10: hold events ranging from a three thousand capacity mini area 395 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 10: arena it's full sized thirty eight thousand stadium mode. Daneedan 396 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 10: Venues CEO is Paul Dawn. He says the city has 397 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 10: been missing out on a growing number of mid sized events. 398 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 10: He says, currently they've got a bit of a Goldilock situation. 399 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 10: Our town hall's too small, the stadiums too. But this 400 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 10: new system should fix that. The cost of it hasn't 401 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,400 Speaker 10: been revealed and for how much ratepayers are contributing. It'll 402 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 10: be installed before Christmas. 403 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 2: All right, how's your weather got a strong win? 404 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 10: Watch here, Gail force northeaster is through the day, occasional rain, 405 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 10: a high of twenty all. 406 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 2: Right, thanks mate.

You've got 408 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 2: some details of the official opening. 409 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 11: Yes, officially opening today and I can tell them the 410 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 11: tiny voice, I think because everyone's sick of hearing about 411 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 11: the new stadium. And maybe they are sick of hearing 412 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 11: about it, but I will say Ryan, I would argue 413 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 11: they weren't here fifteen years ago when we had the 414 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 11: guts of the city ripped out. There is so much 415 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 11: to celebrate about the new stadium. The final piece of 416 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 11: the puzzle for christ Church is so it feels is 417 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 11: coming to fruition who's who of the city, And I 418 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 11: understand some other dignitaries from Wellington and the like will 419 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 11: be here today to cut the ribbon and officially welcome 420 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 11: the new stadium. The construction on this, of course began 421 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 11: almost exactly four years ago. This it has to be 422 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 11: one of the only pieces of infrastructure that's been delivered 423 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 11: on budget and on time. We know, of course, the 424 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 11: first major event is Super Rugby super Round on ANZAC weekend. 425 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 11: We've got six sixty and Symphony coming in May, Robbie 426 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 11: Williams the first International coming in November, and then the 427 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 11: food fighters come in January. There are still some final 428 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 11: checks to get through in the meantime though, and that's 429 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 11: why we've got the links of these warriors watching parties 430 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 11: being announced. We've got cleaning that needs to be done. 431 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 11: But for now it's very much a sense of celebrations beginning. 432 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 2: Now, as you say, a well deserved celebration as well, 433 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 2: after a long hard slog. And I noticed that you 434 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,120 Speaker 2: guys are doing lots of clever advertising as well to us. 435 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,160 Speaker 2: Auckland is to get us down there. I've just seen 436 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 2: it online in the last few days, so they're doing things, well, 437 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 2: how's your weather. 438 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 11: Well, if anything's going to lure you, it's the fact 439 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 11: that Scribe is performing at the first Crusaders match. 440 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 2: So there you go, Ryan, just for you. 441 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 11: Hey, look, it's a good day for testing the roof 442 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 11: on the stadium because it is raining here. We've got 443 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 11: northeasterlies and gales about at a high of twenty two. 444 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 2: All right, cheers clear morning, Max MECHX Max Max Max. 445 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 2: Do you are down down a hole somewhere Mex tell 446 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 2: us about the water entity. There's a big tour and 447 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,119 Speaker 2: pro between wats and little about this too, isn't it. 448 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 12: Yeah, it's really the story of the week here in 449 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 12: the Capitol, and we may be getting to the bottom 450 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,119 Speaker 12: of these massive water bills we're going to start receiving 451 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 12: in the Capitol. Councilor Tim Brown has told the Post 452 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:29,120 Speaker 12: apparently all five councils, you know, Polydor, the Hut, Wellington, 453 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 12: they want to transfer as much of their infrastructure debt 454 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 12: as possible directly to Tiaqi. 455 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 3: Why it's getting ugly. 456 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,400 Speaker 12: It hasn't even started yet operating, fixing leaks and it's 457 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 12: already underwater. It's also expected to open with higher expenses 458 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 12: than revenue. Nowonda Simon Watts, as you say, was left 459 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 12: scratching his head this week. He couldn't believe the latest 460 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 12: information out of Tiaki. Why we all know, look our infrastructure, 461 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 12: the pipes, the leaks, et cetera. 462 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 2: It's a bit buggered. 463 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 12: But you'd have thought that replacing Wellington Water would be 464 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 12: a fresh start. But rather than a new cash injection 465 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 12: or reducing that infrastructure debt, it does seem like one 466 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 12: point seven billion dollars is going to be unloaded in 467 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 12: debt onto Tiaki way and it leaves you very cynical 468 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 12: about local government. 469 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, totally. I'm asking why how's your weather? 470 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 12: Indeed, scattered rains, strong norther least twenty two. 471 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,159 Speaker 2: Cheers Max Neva's good morning Neva, No one of us. 472 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,159 Speaker 2: How have Auckland and Upper North Island feed with the 473 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 2: bad weather overnight? 474 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,160 Speaker 13: Yes, well, you know fine, Ada Far North under states 475 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 13: of emergency for seven days following all the heavy rain 476 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 13: in the Gales.

Seriously? 500 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 2: The Post had this story and they rang an aw 501 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 2: confirm that does this, and they said paying fifteen to 502 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 2: twenty thousand dollars a year for eighteen large pop plants 503 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 2: was normal. What on earth? How is it that expensive? 504 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 2: And do we actually need plants in the office. I've 505 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 2: never once gone in an admired one. I didn't even 506 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 2: notice they were the Earth go to the park at lunch. 507 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 2: We're in London. 508 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 1: Next International correspondence with ins and Eye Insurance Peace of 509 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,679 Speaker 1: mind for New Zealand business who. 510 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:25,120 Speaker 2: Talks to be Lit's hear from Trump talking NATO overnight. 511 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 4: Were very disappointed with NATO because NATO has done absolutely nothing. 512 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,199 Speaker 4: I said twenty five years ago that NATO's a paper tiger, 513 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 4: but more importantly that we'll come to their rescue but 514 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 4: they will never come to ours. 515 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 2: How has that gone down? Vincent meca Any, a UK 516 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 2: europe correspondent, joins us this morning. I suppose it's just 517 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 2: more of the same from him on NATO, isn't it. 518 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 3: Yeah? 519 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 9: And he completely does not understand what NATO is. It's 520 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,239 Speaker 9: a defensive alliance and the only time that NATO has 521 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 9: been called on to defend one of its members was 522 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 9: after nine to eleven when they did enact the articles 523 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 9: that mean the defense of one is the defense of all, 524 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 9: and NATO came to the assistance of the United States 525 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 9: when it came to Afghanistan. So he is completely wrong 526 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 9: in what he's saying. Yes, there have been issues in 527 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 9: the past decade. We all had the sort of, you know, 528 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 9: the benefit of the Cold War being over and could 529 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 9: take down defense spending, and we weren't matching in some 530 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 9: countries the two percent requirement that came in in twenty fourteen, 531 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,160 Speaker 9: but all countries are now surpassing that on their way 532 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 9: to roughly five percent each. He doesn't understand that if 533 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 9: you do something like this, which is a war of choice, 534 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 9: that is not what NATO is there for. And particularly 535 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 9: if you don't tell your allies that you're going to 536 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,479 Speaker 9: do it, they can't prepare and assist you. So there 537 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 9: has been a scramble in Europe to try and help 538 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,959 Speaker 9: allies in the region, the likes of Katar, the UAE, 539 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 9: and that's something that France and the UK have been doing. 540 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 9: But he's completely wrong to say that NATO should have 541 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 9: sent all ships and guns with him when he has 542 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 9: clearly no plan into what he's doing. 543 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 2: To be fear on the spinding front. Was listening to 544 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 2: Rutsa's speech last night as well, and he's saying, you know, 545 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 2: we're going to get the fight. We're hoping to get 546 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 2: the five percent of We increased twenty percent last year, 547 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 2: but they promised to get to two percent back in 548 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 2: twenty fourteen and they've only just got there now. 549 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 9: Yeah, that's right, but I mean you have to look 550 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 9: at the pressures really. I mean the sort of as 551 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 9: I say, the peace dividend that was had was felt, 552 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 9: you know across the West. You know, the Cold War 553 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 9: was over. It was unthinkable at that point, you know, 554 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 9: in a sort of twenty twelve, when you'd have to 555 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 9: start taking it up to two percent to get there 556 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 9: in time, that there would be you know, war in 557 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,400 Speaker 9: sort of mainland Europe again. And then after the Saciy Olympics, 558 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 9: of course, Russia does start its invasion of Ukraine. That 559 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 9: was a sort of game change moment. But I think 560 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 9: people in Europe, in some countries didn't realize quick enough 561 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,959 Speaker 9: how big a threat Russia was starting to pose. And 562 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 9: it seems like from you know, what we've seen so 563 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 9: far in terms of you know, even Volkswagen coming out 564 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 9: now and saying that it might shift one of its 565 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 9: plants into making parts for you know, munitions. There is 566 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 9: now very much a feeling in Europe that we're on 567 00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 9: a war footing. But he's completely misappropriating what has been 568 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 9: going on with his voluntary war and war of choice 569 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 9: in Iran, with the sort of Europeans spending on NATO, 570 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 9: which is a defense alliance. 571 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 2: Vincent, thank you. Vincent Macaviney a UK europe correspondent ten 572 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 2: to six Bryan Breed gouvernment's getting advice in a potential 573 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 2: helium shortage. This is used in MRI machines. A quarter 574 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 2: of the global supply is imported from Cutter. Obviously that's 575 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 2: affected by the Strait but also the strike we told 576 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 2: you about last week on the RUSS Lafann facility. That's 577 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 2: where it all comes from. They're worried about cancer care. Here. 578 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 2: Doctor Debrah Powell, APEX National Secretary with us this morning. Debraah, 579 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 2: good morning, good morning. How important is helium for MRI machines. 580 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 14: Absolutely essential. It's the substance that cools these machines. They 581 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 14: work at a very high temperature, so we have to 582 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 14: call them to make sure that they can keep on operating. 583 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 2: Do we have a shortage yet? Is there anything wrong 584 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,239 Speaker 2: with the MRI machines as we speak, or is it 585 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 2: we're just looking ahead and hoping it doesn't happen. 586 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 14: I think we're just looking ahead. The m machines have 587 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 14: been maturing over the years. They used to take a 588 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 14: lot of helium, about one and a half liters of 589 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 14: liquid helium, but our current machines don't take that sort 590 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 14: of level, and they also recycle their own helium. So 591 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 14: we really only get into trouble if we have to 592 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 14: quench the machine is what we call it. I'd call 593 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 14: it purging that if something does go horribly wrong, then 594 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 14: the helium is released into the atmosphere. It doesn't happen 595 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 14: very often, but if it does, then have to replace 596 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 14: the helium in the machine. So that's really the main 597 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 14: risk I think that we have here. Most of our 598 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 14: machines these days are more modern, so they're not taking 599 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 14: as much helium. 600 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 7: We've got a. 601 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 14: Very good replacements program at the moment for our MRI machines, 602 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 14: which is rather fortunate. So no, this is we need 603 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 14: to watch and make sure that we have a little 604 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 14: bit of spare capacity in the system in case that 605 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 14: it's not going to affect cancer treatment or any of 606 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 14: the other things that mrs do at this point in time. 607 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 2: How good you know. I was looking this morning at 608 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 2: the numbers. We have about twenty per million people. Germany 609 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 2: has about thirty five per million, the US thirty seven. 610 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 2: Japan has sixty MRI machines per million. Does it make 611 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 2: a big difference to cancer care? Does it make a 612 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 2: big difference to you know, survivability all that stuff? 613 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 7: Oh? 614 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 14: Absolutely, And it's not just cancer. These machines are used 615 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 14: for a wide range of diagnosis and then monitoring of disease, cardiac, neurological, 616 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 14: all sorts of things. So yeah, it makes a big 617 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 14: impact on how patients generally flow through the system. But 618 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 14: cancer care in terms of diagnosis, how far is the 619 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 14: cancer spread so we can actually get all of It's 620 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 14: not just the main primary. All of these things mrs 621 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 14: are absolutely critical to best treatment for our patients. They're 622 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 14: fabulous machines. 623 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 2: Not the debral pow Apex National Secretary. It is eight 624 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 2: to six News Talks b Mike Next. 625 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 1: The First Word on the News of the Day Early 626 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 1: edition with Ryan Bridge and One Roote Love Where. 627 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 2: You Live News Talks that'd be five to six. Is 628 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 2: not all bad news out there. David seam Whisday was 629 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 2: talking about Alberta in Canada. They reckon they've wiped out 630 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 2: their entire provincial budget deficit in the last two weeks 631 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 2: because of the price of world because they do pump 632 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 2: a lot of it out of there, don't they? Five 633 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 2: to six and Mic is with us on Friday morning morning. 634 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 15: Mike, Greetings, Ryan, Netflix and the Tom Keeley. 635 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 2: Yes, okay, good. I couldn't give them money, but just generally, 636 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 2: the whole story was before he was caught. So wouldn't 637 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 2: you want police to go out there and try and 638 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 2: get publicity, to try and raise whatever alarm they could 639 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 2: to get people interested, to try and get the things 640 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 2: sold and get the kids found. Didn't they do that? Yes, 641 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 2: but they've been criticized for it, which I don't think 642 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 2: is fair. 643 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 15: People criticize people for everything. I just can't believe. It's 644 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 15: a story in a will where there's a war and 645 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 15: we might run out of petrol and we don't have 646 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 15: any helium and the ceramics industry. 647 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 2: But now he's closed down. His sounding alarmis no, no, no, no. 648 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 15: Big story this morning is of course, Hipkins. Yeah, I know, 649 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 15: and that's is there a resignation? 650 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 2: Do you know last night? Because I had heard about 651 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 2: the story last night and I was thinking, do you 652 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 2: have to resign? The thing is he'll come out and say, well, 653 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 2: he hasn't specifically addressed it in his response to the 654 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 2: Herald No, which is always telling not exactly. But we 655 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 2: asked him to come, I canst him come on my 656 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 2: show today and he said, no, probably doesn't like you. Well, 657 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 2: I'm not terribly mean to him. 658 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 15: Here's the problem. 659 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 2: So did he lie? 660 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 15: Is the is the critical part, isn't it? So what 661 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 15: we for people who have not followed this is that 662 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 15: in the commission I mean, how useless of that?
