1 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: Questions, answers, facts, analysis, The Drive show you trust for 2 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: the full picture. Heather Dupless on Drive with One New 3 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: Zealand Let's get connected news talks they'd be. 4 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:21,239 Speaker 2: Afternoon coming up on the show today, great news. We've 5 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,919 Speaker 2: got the free trade negotiations with the India starting this week. 6 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 2: Will speak to the Trade minister, the Police minister will 7 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 2: tell us why he wants longer sentences to reduce recidivism, 8 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 2: and the Finance Minister Nichola Willis as the. 9 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 3: Usual art for six Heather Dupliclan look. 10 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 2: After Albow's massive went across the Ditch on Saturday. I 11 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 2: can see a lot of commentators attempted to blame this 12 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,520 Speaker 2: on trump Ism in the same way that they blame 13 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,480 Speaker 2: the election Canadian election upset on trump Ism. But I'm 14 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 2: not convinced that they're right, at least not in the 15 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 2: way that they think they are. So what these commentators 16 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 2: are saying is that Trump has given Canadian and Australians 17 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 2: the ick so badly that they are voting against anything 18 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 2: that looks like Donald Trump, whether it's Dutton in Australia, 19 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 2: or Polyiev Canada, or just right wingism in general. People 20 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 2: hate Trump so much anything that even resembles him gets 21 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 2: the big no. Now, I don't think that is what's happened. 22 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 2: That's what's happened here, because have a look at what's 23 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 2: happening in New Zealand. At the moment. The two parties 24 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 2: in our parliamentary system that would probably share the greatest 25 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 2: number of policy positions with Donald Trump and New Zealand 26 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,919 Speaker 2: First and Act, and both of these parties are polling 27 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 2: much higher than they historically have, like considerably higher than 28 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 2: they historically have. Also, those commentators seem to be conveniently 29 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 2: forgetting what just happened in the UK on Friday night, 30 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 2: which is that the Reform part of the party absolutely 31 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 2: swept the local elections in a shock result. Now Reform 32 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 2: is led by Nigel Faraj, and I think it's probably 33 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 2: the closest thing to Trump in the English speaking world. 34 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 2: So as much as the left would like to believe 35 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 2: that what happened in Australia and Canada is a Trump 36 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 2: eck factor that they can pin on the rest of 37 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 2: the right, I don't think it is. I think what's 38 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 2: happened is the same thing that happened during COVID, which 39 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 2: is that we've just seen some safe voting take place. 40 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: I think Trump and his tariff talk on the possibility 41 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 2: of a massive global slowdown has freaked out voters in 42 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 2: a similar way to how COVID freaked people out. And 43 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: when people freak out, it favors the incumbent because it's 44 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 2: better the devil, you know, right when it comes to 45 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 2: protecting you. And that's why the Canadians returned their incumbent government. 46 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 2: It is why the Australians returned their incumbent government. Now 47 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 2: the same doesn't apply to the UK, where reform did 48 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 2: really well because that was a local body election system, 49 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 2: which is about rubbish and roads. It's not central government, 50 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 2: which is about tariffs and healthcare. So I suspect that 51 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 2: we shouldn't over egg how much voters hate Trump as 52 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 2: much as understand how much he might be frightening them. 53 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,519 Speaker 3: Heather Due for see Alt. 54 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 2: Nine two nine and two. Keen to get your text 55 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 2: on that standard techs fees apply as well. Now we've 56 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 2: got some new stats that just show show just how 57 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 2: badly underreported retail crime is. There's a new report by 58 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 2: Retail New Zealand. They surveyed about fifteen hundred shop owners 59 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 2: and ninety nine percent of those who were surveyed had 60 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: experienced some form of crime, which total about one hundred 61 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 2: and forty thousand incidents in twenty twenty four alone, and 62 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 2: about forty percent of these crimes weren't even reported to 63 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 2: the police. Now, Ruben Sharples is the owner of the 64 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: Ossie Butcher in Newlyn and is with us. Now, hey, Ruben, hey, 65 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 2: you going very well. Thank you. Have you done the 66 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 2: same thing. Have you had some crime happen and not 67 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 2: gone to the cops with it. 68 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's for a lot of the sort of the 69 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 4: general sort of shoplifting. It's like sometimes you see them, 70 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 4: we can't catch them, and I have reported it in 71 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 4: the past, but if it's a small amount, like a 72 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 4: smaller dollar figure, if like at least that's under one 73 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 4: hundred dollars or something, by the time I sort of 74 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 4: spend my time trying to download all the images and 75 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 4: send them through. It's and the police are just they 76 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 4: do attend like we've got a very good local group 77 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 4: in Newlyn, but it's it seems that the whole the 78 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 4: greater the greater justice system doesn't really they do their job, 79 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 4: and then it seems that they get a slap on 80 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 4: the hand, and nothing really happens, but probably nine times 81 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 4: out of ten it doesn't get reported. 82 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 5: Okay. 83 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 2: And is it the case that every time you report 84 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: something you have to provide the evidence for it, like 85 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 2: you have to go and find the CCTV right, Well, yeah, 86 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 2: so it's a huge amount. It's like a huge effort 87 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 2: on your part. 88 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's yeah, like it is quite tiresome. I 89 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 4: mean the websites that you have you can upload if 90 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 4: I've got time, I usually will upload it. On that 91 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 4: kind of side of things. I can't remember the website 92 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,720 Speaker 4: at the moment, and it's pretty easy to do. So 93 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 4: that's been made easier in the later of years. 94 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 2: Ruben, what's the value? Like, what would it what would 95 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 2: it take? How much would someone have to nick for 96 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 2: you to feel like it was worth going to the police? 97 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 4: I mean, we've had some pretty big ones in the 98 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 4: past which I have gone and they have been caught 99 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 4: and justice has been served. 100 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 3: I know that. 101 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 4: Like we somebody that a few years ago saw a 102 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 4: lot of exlam of us with their break ins where 103 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 4: I stole thousands Christmas time, we had four thousand turkeys stolen. 104 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 4: How that got that got reported? We had a container 105 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 4: out front, and they were They spent probably fifteen minutes 106 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 4: eventually got him and then yeah, and stole half in 107 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 4: our Christmas turkeys, which was which was kind of that 108 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 4: got reported. But I mean they're not silly. They don't 109 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,359 Speaker 4: rock up with a sign saying their names Reuben Sharples. 110 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 4: They all bello, clubbed and gloved and every so there's 111 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,799 Speaker 4: no fingerprints and they in the cops came down, forensics 112 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 4: came down very quickly when I reported that, but nothing 113 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 4: as it was available. 114 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,119 Speaker 2: Ruben, How how are you finding crime at the moment? 115 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 2: Has it come back slightly? Is it as bad as 116 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 2: it ever was? 117 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 6: Where? 118 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 4: I think it's opportunists. I think if people see that, 119 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 4: so we'll make sure we've got a couple of shopices 120 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 4: in the shop. If you see someone that sort of 121 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 4: you know in summer and they come in with a 122 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 4: great big puff of jackets and a bag at the 123 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 4: front with it unzipped and sort of go out in 124 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 4: the shop and you did it wall to send out, 125 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 4: so there's quite a few staff out so they don't 126 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 4: sort of get the opportunity. I think that's a big 127 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 4: I think it's expensive, like we all know how expensive 128 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 4: groceries they've got over the last few years, and I 129 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 4: think that's I think that's. 130 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 3: A big issue. 131 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 4: We had one that we had quite a comical one 132 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 4: the other day or other week. They came in and 133 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 4: had a wig on and a hat on, and someone 134 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 4: just turned their corner and they managed to just bolt 135 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 4: and lit. My guys gave chase, but this person was 136 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 4: faster than the same bolt through the wig off, through 137 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 4: the hat off, and yeah, but that was that was 138 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 4: probably only thirty dollars. 139 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 2: What do they that? What is it? What are people 140 00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 2: wigging and hatting up for? What do they need? 141 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 4: Well, they're you need to packet the lamb chops and 142 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 4: some mints. So so when you sort of see it 143 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 4: like that, that's I don't think that's to on sell 144 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 4: to be like comes in and taking it's hungry. If 145 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 4: someone comes in and they're taking if lips and things 146 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 4: like that, whether they're selling it to get money to 147 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 4: buy other you know, whether it's food or whether it's 148 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 4: to buy drugs. I'm not saying, but it's you can 149 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 4: sort of you can sort of pick the difference. The 150 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 4: ones that just takes small amounts. It's because they obviously 151 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 4: don't have any money or you know. 152 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's great. Hey, Rubin, I really appreciate your time. Man, 153 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 2: thanks very much. It's Rubin Sharpele's the owner of the 154 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 2: Aussie Butcher and Newland. I mean, I tell you what 155 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 2: if it's if crime is all that's being reported, it 156 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 2: just tells you how much worse it is and you 157 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 2: think and it's quarter past. 158 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Dup see allan Drive full show podcast 159 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio powered by News Talks. 160 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 3: That'd be Heather. 161 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 2: I'm a shop owner and I don't bother reporting retail 162 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 2: crime after receiving a letter from Auckland Heart to the 163 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,119 Speaker 2: city approximately six years ago saying police will no longer 164 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 2: attend shoplifting events report only. So it's a waste of 165 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 2: time reporting for no reason. Yea, I suspect there's a 166 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 2: part of that going on there. Eighteen past foward Jason 167 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 2: Pine sports talk hosters with US Piney come in Piney. 168 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 2: Are you there, Heather?

Doubt doubt it? What do we 171 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 7: say to each other on Friday? I can't remember. It 172 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 7: seems so long ago, did we bet that. 173 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 2: I came in with it a snark. I was like, oh, 174 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 2: surely they're going to win, you know, if it's just 175 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 2: like a there was doubt in my voice. 176 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I mean it was unfounded because they got 177 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 7: over there. They were subjecting us to a couple of 178 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 7: nervous moments at the end. The Cowboys got back to 179 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 7: thirty twenty six and then had a try supposedly in 180 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 7: the corner, but Luke Metcalf had done a brilliant job 181 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 7: of getting the triscorers foot de touched just before he 182 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,439 Speaker 7: touched it down. So thirty twenty six. Look, Heather, you 183 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 7: know it's the best ever eight game starts to a 184 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 7: Warrior's season, six ones, two defeats. You know, maybe we 185 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 7: need to see a slightly larger body of work, maybe 186 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 7: halfway through the season we can make a more informed 187 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 7: assessment of how they'll go. But it's a pretty good start, 188 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 7: isn't it. 189 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not bad at all. I mean again, I 190 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 2: feel like I'm asking the same question of you today 191 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 2: as I did when they were having a massive slump 192 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 2: at the end of last year. But why what is 193 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 2: it that what makes them perform so brilliantly at the 194 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 2: start of this year and so poorly at the end 195 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 2: of last year. 196 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 7: What a great question, What a great question, I reckon. 197 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,719 Speaker 7: If you asked Andrew Webster, ask James Fisher Harris, to 198 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 7: ask any of the players, they'd probably struggle to come 199 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 7: up with a decent answer. 200 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 5: For you. 201 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 7: It just seems to be an indefinable thing. Look, they're 202 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 7: missing a couple of players, James Fisher Harris for starters. 203 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 7: No Roger two Vasa Seck, no Dellan, Why Tennis Alesniak 204 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,079 Speaker 7: Rocoberry went off injured the other night. Next man up 205 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 7: seems to work for them. Look, maybe it is undefinable. 206 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 7: Maybe it's just a wave that you have to ride, 207 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 7: and while you're riding it, keep on riding. 208 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 2: That happened last year. I remember when they were down 209 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 2: to like second or third guy that they would call 210 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 2: into a position, certain to the cucking positions, only they 211 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 2: were playing amazingly. Well. It seems to be a little 212 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 2: bit of a pattern, there isn't it. 213 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 6: Yeah. 214 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 7: And then when they you know, and I don't suggest 215 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 7: that this is the reason, but when they brought some 216 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 7: of the so called first you know, first choices back 217 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 7: in didn't quite go so well. So look, it's a 218 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 7: balancing act. There's always going to be injuries in rugby league. 219 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 7: But yeah, let's enjoy it while we can. Are the 220 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 7: next at home at the back end of May against 221 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 7: the Raiders, that'll be a massive game. 222 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 2: Yeah hey, now listen, why do you think that super 223 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 2: Rugby needs to bring back the super Round? 224 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 7: Because I looked at the Magic Round for the NRL. 225 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 7: I thought that is magnificent. You know, all of those 226 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 7: people they're watching sixteen of the seventeen teams, I reckon 227 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 7: super Around. They hear me out, heither should be played 228 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,319 Speaker 7: in Fiji. That's where you should have super round. 229 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 8: You know. 230 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 7: You look at the Fiji and drew a fans to 231 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 7: turn up and just occupy every shred of space around 232 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 7: Latoka or souver or wherever they play. Imagine that across 233 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 7: the weekend. Look, I know what everyone's saying, Oh yeah, 234 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 7: hang on, yeah, but yeah, but yeah, but yeah, but 235 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 7: let's start with the concept and work from there. I 236 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 7: know there aren't probably the infrastructure around hotels and travel 237 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 7: and recovery and rehab and that sort of thing in 238 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 7: the ground we wouldn't hold up. But I still think 239 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 7: I still think it's worth examining. And if not there, 240 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 7: then somewhere, Heather, get the teams together to make a 241 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 7: festival argument. 242 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: Sucks. You just told me why it shouldn't happen in 243 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 2: Fiji and then you're like, well, if it doesn't happen 244 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 2: happen there, it needs to happen somewhere. 245 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 7: I was playing the part of the naysayers when I 246 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 7: was saying that, Look, I love that Fiji. 247 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 2: Seriously, if you took it to Fiji, could you maximize 248 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 2: your dollar because that needs to be super Rugby. I mean, 249 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 2: this is what Rugby needs to seriously start bringing the 250 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,559 Speaker 2: dollars in. So if Fiji is a place that's just 251 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 2: going to turn a massive buck for them bowlmans, go 252 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 2: for it. But if it isn't, then they need to 253 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 2: take it somewhere where it's going to make. 254 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 7: A lot of Wait, but what dollars are we talking 255 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 7: about here? We already get the broadcast dollars, we already 256 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 7: get the sponsorship dollars, dollars, ticket the ticket revenue. So 257 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 7: give it to the Fiji and drewer or most of 258 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 7: it to them, and give you know, the other teams 259 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 7: that go up there a portion of it. I mean 260 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 7: to the Blues and the Chiefs really need to take 261 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 7: ticket revenue from the Fiji and drawer that don't when 262 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 7: they got up there for a regular season day. 263 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,319 Speaker 2: Aren't there. But isn't everybody in rugby just a bit 264 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 2: stuffed when it comes to their finances? 265 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 7: I don't think so. 266 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 2: Yes, Piney, honest, So you evern't know they're not? Okay, 267 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 2: I'll go, I'll go find the facts. I'll come back. 268 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 2: Are you sure well? 269 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 7: Are you sure that they're on the look? Maybe? Down 270 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 7: at provincial level there are some unions who are having a. 271 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 2: Bit of a struggles. 272 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,719 Speaker 7: That's Wellington Rugby here. They're different from the Hurricanes. That's 273 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 7: Wellington Rugby. All the Super Rugby franchises, franchises I think 274 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 7: are doing very well through their broadcast revenue from New 275 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 7: Zealand Rugby, through sponsorship, I think they're doing okay. 276 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 2: Hold on, I'm pretty sure that I read not long 277 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 2: ago that the Hurricanes were having a real problem with 278 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 2: their finances. Leave it with me. I'm going to google 279 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 2: furiously in the break and I'm going to send it 280 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 2: to you on email. Okay, Piney, I'll look forward to it. 281 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 2: You're just so excited. Thank you Piney as always, Jason 282 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 2: Pine sports talk host back at seven o'clock listen, just 283 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 2: really good, I am. I'm going to have to really 284 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 2: putting my money my mouth is right now. I'm going 285 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 2: to have to google the hell out of that computer 286 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 2: in a second, now, just very quickly. I don't know 287 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 2: if you remember at the last end of last week Friday, 288 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 2: but there was the announcement that the ban was coming 289 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 2: on farms being turned into forestry and that they would 290 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 2: have the legislation through by the end of the year 291 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 2: and stuff. We got the timeline last year couldn't come 292 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 2: soon enough, because we've just had news today that two 293 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 2: more farms in central Hawks Bay have just been sold 294 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 2: to overseas buyers who are going to turn them into forests. 295 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 2: So eight hundred hectares in Omakere Temanuity Station and then 296 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: four hundred and eighty hectares and why pook Are our 297 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 2: off Middleton Road. And of course add that to the 298 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 2: one that we had just a few weeks ago, which 299 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 2: was about fifteen hundred hectares huge in Alsthorpe. So you know, 300 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 2: the three of them, I think we can see that's 301 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 2: a hell of a lot of trees. We probably don't 302 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 2: need to be doing that to our communities. 303 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 9: Four twenty three Getting the facts, discarding the fluff. 304 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: It's heather duplicy Ellen drive with one New Zealand. Let's 305 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 1: get connected news dogs that'd. 306 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 2: Be I could happily report to you that I do, 307 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 2: and to know how to use the Google on the internets. 308 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 2: Hurricanes seek one million dollar injection from shareholders after seven 309 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollar loss in twenty twenty four. That is 310 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 2: from exactly about one month ago. Not only did they 311 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 2: have a seven hundred thousand dollar loss in twenty twenty four, 312 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 2: they also had a one point four million dollar deficit 313 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty three. So that puts paid to that 314 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 2: stupid idea of taking any games to Ta Fiji, doesn't it, 315 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 2: Because clearly they need to keep all of the dollars 316 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 2: in New Zealand because they broke one of the looks 317 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 2: of things. Ummm listen, happy to report to you. So 318 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 2: I think I won that one again? Do I need 319 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 2: to rub this in? I won that one against Jason Pine, 320 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: didn't I? Twenty six past four Happy to report the 321 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 2: government is keck starting the trade negotiations with India so 322 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 2: we've got a delegation that has landed a New Delhi 323 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 2: and they're going to go for it. And Todd McLay 324 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 2: is going to be with us after five o'clock to 325 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 2: give us the details on that. Heather, no way can 326 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 2: you put Canada in the same boat as Australia regarding 327 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 2: their elections. The attack by Donald Trump threatening Canada and 328 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 2: wanting to make it the fifty first state tariffs on 329 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 2: the nation, and then the government's actions regarding Canada's nationalism 330 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 2: has taken them to victory and the election, which is 331 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 2: a very fair point. And also somebody else has made 332 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 2: the point it's not even the same kind of like 333 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 2: we're talking about. Do not get excited about if you're 334 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 2: on the left and you're like, that's right, yeah, left 335 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 2: wing victory next time, don't get too excited about it, 336 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 2: because not only is the X factor completely overegged, I think, 337 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 2: but as well as that, completely different voting systems in 338 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 2: these three countries. So I don't know that we'll see 339 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 2: the same thing repeating here. Headline's next. 340 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: Putting the challenging questions to the people at the heart 341 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 1: of the story. It's hither duplicy Ellen drive with one 342 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: New Zealand. Let's get connected. News talks end me.

We've stopped attending the Super Rugby games, stop 347 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 2: buying the ten jerseys, even to stop following their games 348 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 2: on Sky. You know what, me too. I don't know 349 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 2: the last time. I don't watch Super Rugby games unless 350 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 2: I'm in the stand. I'm not gonna lie to you 351 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 2: in a corporate box. If somebody invites me and says 352 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 2: come along and I'll feed you and give you something 353 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 2: to drink, and you can stand inside and chat to 354 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 2: interesting people while the game is happening and you're not 355 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 2: even watching it, I'll be like, yep, I'm coming along. 356 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 2: I don't watch the game, don't sit outside and watch 357 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 2: the gap, don't watch rugby games when I'm at Eden Park. 358 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 2: How crazy is it? I go to Eden Park not 359 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 2: to watch rugby games. I do not watch rugby games 360 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 2: on the tally unless it involves a test. I'm not 361 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 2: interested in Super Rugby. I didn't. I did that last 362 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 2: year with my boycott, didn't miss anything, going to continue 363 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 2: it this year, So I'm in the same boat as 364 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 2: you will carry on like that. Listen, Erica might be 365 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 2: in trouble. You know, we like Erica, but Eric has 366 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 2: done something. Dumbe, the Prime Minister, is fronting the post 367 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 2: Cabinet press conference at the moment and was asked about 368 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 2: ministers using their personal emails to send and receive sensitive documents, 369 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 2: including budget budget documents. Have a listen. 370 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 11: I'm comfortable with how often Erica Stanford is using her 371 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 11: personal email to conduct ministerial business. 372 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 12: Well, again, my office has spoken with her. I understand 373 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 12: it's been very few occasions. What I'd say is that 374 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 12: she has had tech issues with printings. It's a good example. 375 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 12: I'm aware ministers in the previous government had the same 376 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 12: use of personal emails in the same way. 377 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you're using the Gmail because you can't print. 378 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 2: Chris Luckson also said this happened on just a limited 379 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 2: number of occasions. One uses Mikey Sherman seems to have 380 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 2: a different story. 381 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 11: One youth has two followers with hundreds of pages that 382 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 11: includes documents and emails that she has been sending and 383 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,360 Speaker 11: receiving from her private email. Does that sound like very 384 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 11: limited instances? 385 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 12: Well, again, as I said, I'm very relaxed about it. 386 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 2: And again, what was the issue The Prime Minister says 387 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 2: Erica was having a printing issue. 388 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 11: She also se sensitive budget documents ahead of them being 389 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 11: announced publicly to her Gmail account. 390 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 2: Is that appropriate? 391 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 12: Well, again, I just say to you, there will be 392 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 12: moments under the Cabinet Manual where it's quite acceptable for 393 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 12: ministers to use the personal Well, it may well be 394 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 12: if it's printing purposes, if it's because there's technical reasons, 395 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,959 Speaker 12: as I understand it. In her case, it's actually been 396 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 12: about printing challenges. She's actually made the changes in the 397 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 12: settings that she needed to. 398 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, look, the hackers. What happens is when a hacker 399 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 2: hacks your Gmail account, which apparently is quite easy for 400 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 2: a hacker, they will hack everything else. But if it's 401 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 2: just because you want to print it, they'll leave it alone. 402 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 2: Twenty two away from five. 403 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 1: It's the world wires on youth talks, they'd be drive. 404 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 2: Now we've had a few bombshells from Donald Trump today. 405 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:32,959 Speaker 2: He's going to put one hundred percent tariff on foreign 406 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 2: produced movies, and he wants to reopen Alcatraz Prison, and 407 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 2: he's not going to run for a third term. 408 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 13: But it's something that, to the best of my knowledge, 409 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 13: you're not allowed to do. 410 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 3: I don't know if that's constitutional, that they're not allowing 411 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 3: you to do it or anything else. 412 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 13: But there are many people selling the twenty twenty had hat. 413 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 3: But this is not something I'm looking to do. 414 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,439 Speaker 5: I'm looking to have four great years and turn it 415 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 5: over to somebody. 416 00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,959 Speaker 2: Yemmens whothies have hit an airport in Israel with them 417 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 2: missile strike. There were only minor injuries, but the Israel 418 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 2: Defense forces so they're unable to intercept the missile. Here's 419 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 2: Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netan yahoo. 420 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 6: We will not tolerate it. We will take the very 421 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 6: strong action against them, and we always remember that they 422 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 6: act whether Petrin Iran's direction and support. 423 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 2: And finally, the world's tallest dog has had a visit 424 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 2: from the world's smallest dog, so Pearl the Chuahwa is 425 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 2: only nine centimeters tall. That's about the size of an apple, 426 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 2: but she seemed to get on absolutely fine with Reggie, 427 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 2: who is a meter tall and a Great Dane and 428 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 2: so he's basically the size of a small horse. Reggie's 429 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 2: owner hosted the visit on his farm, in Idaho, and 430 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 2: he says Reggie was very careful to make sure he 431 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 2: didn't step. 432 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: On Pearl International Correspondence with ends and eye insurance, Peace 433 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: of mind for New Zealand business. 434 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 2: Oli Peterson six pur Per Life presenter out of Australia 435 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 2: with us. Hey, Ali, get a head, what about Albert? 436 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 2: He will be feeling chucked today, won't. 437 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 5: He ah beg chime? 438 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 14: This is something that nobody saw coming, to be perfectly 439 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 14: honest with you, Heather, even though the poles were obviously 440 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 14: showing on the two party preferred question. It was sort 441 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 14: of a fifty three versus forty seven pole indication. Nobody 442 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 14: quite saw the blood bath which is now the Liberal Party, 443 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 14: which is completely cactus in this country. And the Prime 444 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 14: Minister is quite emotional to be perfectly honest and quite 445 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 14: proud and as he should be of himself and his 446 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 14: team that he wants to still lead for all Australian. 447 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 14: So today he's had a conversation, he says, with Donald Trump. 448 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 14: It was warm and friendly. He's already back in Canberra 449 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 14: getting back to work. But Heather, this is the roost 450 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 14: that he can rule for not only this term, but 451 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 14: probably another term after that. If he wants to do it, it's. 452 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 5: Really his it's his way on the highway. 453 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,120 Speaker 2: Now, what do you think doesn't did wrong? 454 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 14: I think ultimately Peter Dutton was never sold properly to 455 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 14: the Australian people that he was always a person who 456 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 14: was the tough cop on the beat, always wore a suit, 457 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 14: you know, never was a personable to people. Despite the 458 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 14: fact that off there and I've interviewed Peter Darton a 459 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 14: heap of times, he's a really likable bloke as he's 460 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:07,359 Speaker 14: Anthony Alberaneesi. They're probably two of the less politician politicians, 461 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 14: if that makes sense Heather when they're off air. But 462 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 14: what I think he did wrong is he stood for 463 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 14: nothing in the end, so he really isolated women voters 464 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 14: in Australia and women in general. That work from home policy, 465 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 14: which he said, all of a sudden, public servants come 466 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 14: back to work, you got to do it, and then 467 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 14: a few days later he said no, actually we're. 468 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 5: Not going to do that anymore. 469 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 14: So Peter Dutton was always a politician of conviction that 470 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 14: then showed that he didn't stand for that. His nuclear 471 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 14: power policy I think was also a fatal flaw because 472 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,479 Speaker 14: there was no detail around it. He said, we're going 473 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 14: to bring in nuclear it's going to cost billions and 474 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 14: billions of dollars. But it was really off in the 475 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 14: never never, So the hard work of policy in opposition 476 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 14: was not done and he really became unstuck during the 477 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 14: election campaign, looking as though he wasn't prepared, as though 478 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 14: he was a one man band. And this is a 479 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 14: really really big existential crisis for the Liberal Party now, Heather, 480 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 14: because they just simply do not resonate with mainstream Australia 481 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 14: and there is a long way for the party to 482 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 14: come back from the wilderness which has really been almost 483 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,880 Speaker 14: hijacked by the conservative side of the party. They need 484 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 14: to somehow find a way back to the center and 485 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 14: then somehow actually provide an alternative to the Labor Party, 486 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 14: which is doing very well in that center left. 487 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 5: Area on the political spectrum. 488 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:23,640 Speaker 14: So it's a fascinating result and something that our country 489 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 14: is going to grapple with, as I said, for at 490 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 14: least another two terms. 491 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 5: Alberanesi slash Labor governments. 492 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 2: Fascinating stuff. Now, what's the problem with the Olympic stadium 493 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 2: in Brisbane that's supposed to be under construction. 494 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 14: The green groups have just decided that the government doesn't 495 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 14: have any authority to claim the land and build the 496 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 14: Olympic stadiums. So this is the crucifilly government there in Queensland. 497 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 14: They've introduced new legislation to the Queensland Parliament to basically 498 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 14: get this thing built and they're not worried about really 499 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 14: the opposition to the. 500 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 5: Victoria Parks Stadium. 501 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 14: By the way, I was in Brisbane on the weekend 502 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 14: for Magic Ground Up the wars Bloddies of City Brisbane, 503 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,080 Speaker 14: and I think this is just going through what the 504 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 14: usual throws of, if you like, of a of a 505 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 14: concerned local group is for the environment. But they'll have 506 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 14: to jump over a few more hurdles, pardon the pun, 507 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 14: and hopefully they can get this in constructed. 508 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 5: Twenty thirty two is not far away. 509 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 2: No, I liked your hurdle thing, by the way.

But isn't everybody on rugby league these days? 525 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 15: Yeah? 526 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 5: That's right? 527 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 2: So do you still watch a little bit of the Force. 528 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 14: So the Force has been really good this year and 529 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 14: they're going to you know, probably miss out on the 530 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 14: finals again. 531 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 5: Well, I'll go to the same as you. 532 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 14: I will go to the game when it's in Perth, 533 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 14: but I won't sit down and watch it really and yeah, yeah, yeah, 534 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 14: I'll go to the game. 535 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 5: I enjoy going to the game. 536 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 2: Why are you watching it?

No, listen, I've got a 538 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 2: major problem with the pair of us and just talking 539 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 2: about this and without any shame at all, Ollie, thank you. 540 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 2: I really appreciated. Oliver Peterson, six PR Perth Live presenter. 541 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 2: Here the why is this news? Come on? That's about Erica. 542 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 2: Why this is news is because Gmail is not actually 543 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 2: considered the safest thing. Okay, so listen to Erica is 544 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:25,639 Speaker 2: not your school teacher emailing your crappy exam results to 545 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 2: her Gmail account and nobody cares about it. Erica is 546 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 2: a government minister. There is a reason why we as 547 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 2: the taxpayers, pay shed loads of money for the government 548 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 2: to have like uber super duper security settings like our 549 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 2: workplace here at ENZB. Like the crap that I have 550 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 2: to go through to get into my email account on 551 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 2: my phone drives me nuts. I have to see the 552 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 2: little number, I forget the little number, then it has 553 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 2: to look at my face. Oh, it just drives me crazy. 554 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 2: And I'm constantly resetting my password because they care so 555 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 2: much about the information that they are trying to protect, ensignme, 556 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 2: my employer, the stuff that we're sending to each other, 557 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 2: and all that stuff is important and confidential and protected. 558 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 2: Now imagine how much more more so it is for 559 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 2: a government minister sending sensitive budgetment budget documents and sharing 560 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 2: you know, private information and cabinet documents and stuff like that. Right, 561 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 2: So they have gone hell for leather on Erica's phone, right, 562 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,119 Speaker 2: they have made it very very hard for Erica's stuff 563 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 2: to get hacked. Then Erica sends it to her Gmail account. 564 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 2: Now Gmail accounts are not safe, mate, Gmail accounts are 565 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,959 Speaker 2: not encrypted end to end. If you want to do 566 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 2: stuff like it, you've got to do it on your WhatsApp, 567 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 2: which is encrypted end to end. That's why naughty people 568 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 2: send each other naughty information on WhatsApp. So it's a 569 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 2: rookie mistake and that's why it's news because Erica should 570 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 2: have known better. 571 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: Quarter it's a five politics with centric credit, check your 572 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 1: customers and get payment certainty. 573 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 2: Jason Wall's political editor at NEWSTALKSZ bears with with us 574 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 2: Hello Jason, Hello, Hello, how are yew im? 575 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 5: Well? 576 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 2: Thank you? How much troubles Erica in. 577 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 16: Well, we'll have to remain see, there were questions from 578 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 16: tvN's a political editor, Mikey Sherman. So I would imagine 579 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 16: in about an hour and ten minutes time she'll have 580 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 16: some of the details. But you know, from what we 581 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 16: heard from the Prime Minister, and as I understand that 582 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 16: you played a clip before, he seemed quote pretty relaxed 583 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 16: about it, as he said a number of times. So 584 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,360 Speaker 16: we'll have to see how damaging it is. Tomorrow we'll 585 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 16: be doing a lot. We've got the caucus run where 586 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 16: we talk to the likes of Erica and others, so 587 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 16: we'll see what Her response is but yeah, first blush 588 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,160 Speaker 16: of it. It's probably a distraction that the Prime Minister 589 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:28,640 Speaker 16: doesn't want. 590 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 2: I mean, he's probably relaxed about it, Jason, because I 591 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 2: don't know the detail. We only know as much as 592 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 2: we've heard in the post cabinet press conference. But if 593 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 2: at this moment it's a theoretical problem, isn't it. She 594 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 2: sent some emails, but have they been hacked? Have they 595 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:45,439 Speaker 2: been exploited? Probably not, And unless they have, it's just theoretical. 596 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 16: Well, it comes down to the Cabinet Manual and it 597 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 16: technically says on a number of places that you can 598 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 16: only do various different things on government official devices, and 599 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 16: it does. And I think there will be a connection 600 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 16: made to Hillary Clinton back in twenty sixteen and the 601 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 16: email saga there, or there could be some connection made. 602 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 16: But yeah, well we'll have to see. The thing that 603 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 16: came out for me as I was listening to is 604 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 16: Lux and kept talking about how she couldn't get her 605 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 16: settings right, and I thought, good God. 606 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 5: The Crown. 607 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 16: Yeah, well she's a minister of the crown. 608 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 5: She couldn't get the settings rightly? 609 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 2: No, I can't get you. I don't know how to 610 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 2: do printing at work here and I've been in this 611 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 2: office for how long have I been here, Laura? Six 612 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 2: years now? I've been back for that long. Yeah, I 613 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 2: can't work the printers, can you. 614 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 17: Well? 615 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,879 Speaker 16: I actually sat all the summer sat next to the 616 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 16: printer that you're is in the ZB office, and I 617 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 16: would say it is it can smell fear. If you 618 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 16: need something really quickly, it's not gonna premier for you. 619 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 2: I think we all understand. We can understand what I 620 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 2: don't really understand how Gmail fixed her print a problem, 621 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 2: but we understand that fundamental problem. Hey, so we've got 622 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 2: some people in India right now to try and to 623 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 2: kick off the negotiations. 624 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah, that's what the Prime Minister was talking about 625 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,679 Speaker 16: a post cab today. It seemed to be the thrust 626 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 16: of what he was talking about, him and Todd McClay. 627 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 16: But the Prime Minister likes to call him Trade McLay, 628 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 16: which is very fitting him, and he is the Trade minister. 629 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 16: So there's somebody right now over in India, and there's 630 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 16: they've started to kick off these negotiations. But I'll tell 631 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 16: you what I mean, we all knew that was coming. 632 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 16: It's not really all that exciting. The exciting thing for 633 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 16: me is when the journalist started asking about these Trump 634 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 16: tariffs on movies produced in foreign land. You might have 635 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 16: seen this truth social post where he said, we want 636 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 16: more movies made in America again, which was news to me. 637 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 16: I thought they were all made in America, but clearly not. 638 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 2: Now Chris Luck Jason stopped talking right now, have you 639 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 2: not watched The Lord of the Rings? 640 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 16: Wait, tell me more about The Lord of the Rings. 641 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 16: You know where that foreign concept? To me, there are 642 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 16: some movies media Well. Anyway, maybe my ignorance was a 643 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 16: little bit naive on that because obviously a big center 644 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 16: of the world is Bollywood. Now, when the Prime Minister 645 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 16: was over in India, he was really talking up New 646 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 16: Zealand's movie production sector. 647 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 2: Then he said this. 648 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 12: Which I just think is truly world class. You know, 649 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 12: I've been advocating for it, and then dear for that 650 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 12: exact same reason, what would it take to get more 651 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 12: Bollywood productions here New Zealand. 652 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 16: So clearly the Prime Minister wants to pivot to Bollywood 653 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 16: and get a few more Kiwi movies made for that market. 654 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 12: I mean, they have made movies here in New Zealand 655 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 12: and the last twenty years or so, And my question 656 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 12: to them was what else would it take for you 657 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 12: to do more productions here in New Zealand. 658 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 16: And as we see these Trump tariffs come into effect, 659 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 16: we're going to see a lot more of this, these 660 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 16: pivoting to other countries. 661 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 2: Tell me about this poll. I'm surprised that Pete that 662 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 2: that that a majority of us want to see man 663 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 2: and woman defined in legislation. 664 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 16: Are you, oh, well, I honestly no, I'm not. I 665 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 16: thought that these numbers were about right. I mean, you 666 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 16: kind of get a skewed view of things if you 667 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 16: read various different people talking about it. But basically this 668 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 16: is a curier pole into Winston Peters's bill that wants 669 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 16: to define a woman as an adult human biological female. 670 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 16: So so it was Courier that it was Family First 671 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 16: that did this polling. Fifty two percent of us support 672 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 16: this bill, with twenty nine percent of us opposed and 673 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 16: nineteen percent on a sure. 674 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 2: And obviously higher amongst you know, the governing parties who 675 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 2: lean to the right, and then not so much on 676 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 2: you know, in the opposition parties that lean to left. 677 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 2: But why I'm surprised, Jason's because I didn't think that 678 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 2: it would have had the cut through, that kind of 679 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 2: cut through to have fifty two percent wanting it. 680 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 16: It was about well, I mean, you can't really get 681 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 16: away from a question like this. I mean, it's been reported, 682 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 16: it was repurported quite widely. I was overseas when it happened. 683 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 16: I was sunning myself on the beach and mold Beeves 684 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 16: and I was reading about this a bill that Winston 685 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 16: Peters has put into the ballot. So clearly I had 686 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 16: some sort of cut through if it's getting to me, 687 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 16: although I am a bit of a political tragic on 688 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 16: the other side of the world, but it's something that 689 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 16: a lot of people have been thinking about for some time. Clearly, 690 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 16: there were fifteen one hundred. A random selection of fifteen 691 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 16: thousand New Zealand phone numbers was used in this as 692 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 16: the sample section. 693 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 2: I'm told interesting, Thank you, Jason, appreciate it. Jason Wall's 694 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 2: news talks, it'd be political editor. Did you get the 695 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 2: humble brag? Jason's been traveling seven away from five. 696 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: Putting the tough questions to the newsmakers. The mic asking breakfast. 697 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 18: Time mistris in the studio. Twelve billion is a stunning 698 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 18: amount of money. It's over four years, I understand that, 699 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 18: and nine it's new and we don't have any of it. 700 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 18: So Nicola, in announcing one point three instead of two 701 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 18: point four as she did last week, must have found 702 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 18: a shedload of doughse somewhere in terms of savings. 703 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 12: Well, I'm going to be the wrong answer that you're 704 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 12: not going to like it, but it is. 705 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 18: I'm not going to talk about otherwise it just doesn't 706 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 18: add up. 707 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 12: Well, I can tell you it does add up, and 708 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 12: it's within our fiscal buzz. 709 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 3: It will all make sense. It will all make sense. 710 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 12: And what you're going to see as a budget that 711 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 12: is actually saying Yep, we know we're in tough and 712 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 12: uncertain times, but we have turned the corner and actually 713 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 12: things are getting better. 714 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 18: Back tomorrow at six am the Mike Hosking Breakfast with 715 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 18: Maybe's Real Estate News Talk z B. 716 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 2: Hither I would wager that it was sent to Erica's 717 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 2: Gmail and then printed at home, ergo solving the printer issue. Richard, 718 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 2: That's probably right because eric is probably not allowed to 719 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 2: log into her work emails from like, you know, just 720 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 2: an unsecure computer at home, so you have to send 721 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 2: it to your Gmail. Then you can log into your 722 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 2: Gmail from the computer at home and you could print 723 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 2: it there. That probably does explain it, Thank you for sir. 724 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 19: It's kind of the reverse head of what the rest 725 00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 19: of us through, where whenever we need to print it, 726 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 19: we rush into work and just print it out so we. 727 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 5: Don't have to get a print out. 728 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 2: What was the last thing that you brought in from 729 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 2: home to printed work? 730 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 19: Oh, the rules for a board game that I needed 731 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 19: to get off the internet. 732 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 13: Yeah. 733 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 2: No, I did it as well, and it was really 734 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 2: difficult when I was a maternity leave to do the printing. 735 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 2: So I'd send it to my husband from home. I'd 736 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 2: send it to him and be like, print that and break. 737 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 19: Oh I just sent it to me here. I'm happy 738 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 19: to do that for her. Yeah, they clearly. Oh yeah, 739 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 19: good point. 740 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:22,479 Speaker 5: Nevermind. 741 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 2: Oh no, no, you've offered. Now I'm going to know. Hey, 742 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 2: by the way, that farewell for Adrian all sounded grimm 743 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 2: didn't it. Did you read about WHOA Last Thursday? Adrian 744 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 2: snuck around the terrace and popped into the reserve bank 745 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 2: for drinkies. They had sau it was alcohol free, which 746 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 2: immediately I would have been like oh, I'm busy that 747 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 2: day washing my hair, alcohol free sausage rolls, though, cookies, muffins, 748 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 2: hot beverages, juice and water. They were going to hold 749 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 2: it down at the Midai down the road, which feels 750 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 2: appropriate for Adrian because you know he's a workstone stuff 751 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 2: like that, and that could have the pippittier mad I 752 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 2: can hold three hundred and fifty people. But then they 753 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 2: decided to hold it at the office, which says to 754 00:32:58,080 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 2: me that three hundred and fifty people were not going 755 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 2: to turn which is why they held it at the office. 756 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 2: And frankly, what's the bet that whoever turned up looked 757 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 2: at the list of looked at what was available and went, oh, 758 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 2: got to go home. They would have emptied out really quickly. Anyway, 759 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 2: Finance ministers with us after six. We'll see if she 760 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 2: got an invitation. Next up, Tom McLay on the Indian negotiations. 761 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: Yay, digging through the spin spin to find the real 762 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 1: story story. It's Heather Dupuy on Drive with One New Zealand. 763 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: Let's get connected news talks. 764 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 3: That'd be. 765 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 2: Good afternoon. Some good news on the trade front. New 766 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 2: Zealand and India are starting the first round of negotiations 767 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 2: towards a free trade agreement this week Trade Minister Tom 768 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 2: mclay's with me. Now, Hey Todd, Hey, Heather Hope. I'm 769 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 2: very well. Thank you. Who have we sent to India? 770 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 17: So a chief trade negotiator has gone out there, plus 771 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 17: a team with them as a good number of them. 772 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 17: So this is the first formal in person negotiations that 773 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 17: we're having. But there's been a lot of engagement online 774 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 17: and zooms and so on since the Prime Minister and 775 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 17: I announced that we were launching negotiations or what it's 776 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 17: just about a month ago. 777 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 2: And how long do you expect this to take? How 778 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 2: long are the in person negotiations slated for? 779 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,399 Speaker 17: So they will run through this week, So it'll take 780 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 17: a week. There are many many meetings, and so we 781 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 17: take a good sized team out because we have experts 782 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 17: in many areas that they focus on from goods to 783 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 17: services to intellectual property and so on. They'll work through that. 784 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 17: This will be the first of what will be a 785 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 17: number of in person and negotiations. I would expect the 786 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 17: next one probably will be down in New Zealand, but 787 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 17: we decided to go up there. India's got quite a 788 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,240 Speaker 17: few negotiations going on, so for scheduling, rather than waiting, 789 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 17: we thought I'd send my people up there so we 790 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 17: can get on with it. 791 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 2: Are they distracted by trying to strike a deal with 792 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:48,280 Speaker 2: the US? 793 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 3: They're not. 794 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,400 Speaker 17: I discussed this with my counterpart, Piers Goel, who's the 795 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 17: quot there of their trade minister. We talked a lot 796 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 17: about this before we launch. They have the capacity to 797 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 17: negotiate a number of deals at the same time as 798 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:03,759 Speaker 17: we do. Actually, so you're right there and get that. 799 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 17: They negotiating with the US at the moment, with the 800 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 17: European Union, with the UK and others. Some of those 801 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 17: I understanding going on over the next week or two. 802 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 17: And that's why I thought to send our people up 803 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 17: rather than I'm either dragging them down here or missed 804 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 17: the opportunity to have the very first in person negotiation 805 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 17: at the beginning of this month. 806 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,319 Speaker 2: Todd, I see. Donald Trump has announced on one of 807 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 2: his social media accounts that he plans to put one 808 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 2: hundred percent tariff on foreign movies, which, obviously, if he 809 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 2: was to do it would affect us because we make movies. 810 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:29,440 Speaker 15: Here. 811 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 2: Are we taking this seriously? 812 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 17: Yeah, we are very seriously. Although as with lots of 813 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,839 Speaker 17: sort of announcements that come via social media, We're gonna 814 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:38,399 Speaker 17: have to wait and try and get a bit more 815 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 17: information or see what comes out. I mean, as an example, 816 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,839 Speaker 17: if it's whole movies that are made overseas means one thing, 817 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 17: But what if you know just one segment or one 818 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 17: part or some of the technical stuff that's done overseas. 819 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 17: So we don't know yet, but I can say the 820 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:55,839 Speaker 17: Prime Minister was I was with them earlier. You know, 821 00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 17: the New Zealand film industry is exceptional. They do a 822 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 17: great job. A lot of the US film and listy 823 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 17: relies on some of the things that we do here 824 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 17: that you can't do another parts of the world. So 825 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 17: quite a long way to go before we have any clarity. 826 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,400 Speaker 17: Just as an aside, I'll be meeting my counterpartner, the 827 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 17: United States Trade Representative of Ambassador Grere, in the end 828 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 17: of next week at the APEC meeting in Korea, and 829 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 17: it'll be my first chance in person to talk to 830 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 17: them directly about these things. I will be making the 831 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 17: case for how US movie's named. It may not be 832 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 17: anywhere there is enjoyable without some New Zealand content. 833 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 2: I like that Hey, thanks very much, Todd, best of 834 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:35,800 Speaker 2: Like Tod McLay, Trade. 835 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 3: Minister Heather Dupercy Ellen commentators. 836 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 2: Of blaming Donald Trump for the recent election results in 837 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 2: Australia at the weekend and obviously in Canada as well. 838 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,759 Speaker 2: Over the weekend, Ozzie Prime Minister Anthony Albanezi stormed to 839 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:50,200 Speaker 2: a majority victory, apparently because his opponent Peter dusn't reminded 840 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 2: voters of Trump too much. Peter Dunn is a former 841 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 2: United Future leader and with US Now, Hey, Peter, do 842 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:57,400 Speaker 2: you reckon it was the Trump effect? 843 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 20: I think it was in large part, but I think 844 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 20: think there was something else going on in Australia particularly, 845 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 20: and I suspect in Canada as well. Alban Aze he 846 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 20: made a very pertinent point in his victory speech when 847 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 20: he said this was a victory for Australian values. And 848 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 20: I think that's a very sane and sensible comment. You know, 849 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 20: it's a reaction to the Trump stuff, but it's also 850 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 20: about He talked about Australia and what Australian needed and 851 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 20: what Australians wanted, and I think that's a very powerful 852 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 20: message in this uncertain time. It's similar to Luxton's comment 853 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 20: about you know, well, given uncertainty, people go for the 854 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:33,319 Speaker 20: status quo between the two. That's the kernel of the 855 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 20: truth here, you know, talk about the real things, and 856 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 20: in that environment, people will opt for the thing they know, 857 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:42,759 Speaker 20: the certainty and the stability, rather than the fear of 858 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:43,320 Speaker 20: the unknown. 859 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 2: So then therefore, would what do you think happens in 860 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 2: twenty twenty six, Let's say we'll find ourselves in the 861 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,799 Speaker 2: same situation with Trump and the global uncertainty. Does it 862 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 2: favor the left because the rump, the Trump, you know, 863 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 2: the right reminds people too much of Trump? Or does 864 00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,360 Speaker 2: it favor the current government because they are the income events. 865 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,359 Speaker 20: I think it actually comes down to what both do. 866 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 20: On the face of the international experience from Canada and Australia, 867 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 20: would say it would favor the incumbent government. But then 868 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 20: because both were left wing governments, you might say, well 869 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 20: that's a balance the other way. I think it'll come 870 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 20: down to policies, and I think what the message arising 871 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 20: out of all of this, And again going back to 872 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:26,399 Speaker 20: Albanizi's Australian values moniker that parties that sort of try 873 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 20: and import solutions or promote policies that are out of 874 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 20: step with the national mainstream and not what people are 875 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 20: seeking at the moment. So that's a challenge. You know, 876 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 20: in Australia it's been assumed that was done and in 877 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 20: the right and the Trump stuff, but it could equally 878 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,320 Speaker 20: be the left. And I'm give you a very specific 879 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 20: local example Tory Faro and Wellington as mayor talk still 880 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 20: about being a transformational mayor that wasn't appreciated. That's the 881 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 20: point when you lose the public, you lose your credibility 882 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:56,360 Speaker 20: and you lose your support and I think that's the 883 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,400 Speaker 20: real message here. So for Labor and National it's about 884 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 20: their policy and their policies being credible and their policies 885 00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 20: being in line with what the mainstream of New Zealand 886 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 20: voters want, and then it's a matter of choice from there. 887 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 2: Peter, it's always good to talk to you. Thank you 888 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 2: appreciate your time. As Peter Dunn. Former United Future leader. 889 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 3: Heather due Clan Mark Mitchell's. 890 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 2: Policemanister is going to be with us after the half 891 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 2: past news because he wants to get rid of shorter 892 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 2: prison sentences. Here. The how did TV and Z get 893 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 2: hold of those emails? From Erica Stanford if they joined 894 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 2: with the hacker, surely tvans it is jointly liable. Cheers 895 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 2: Mark here, the who told tales on Erica Stanford from Lindley. 896 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 2: I'd be really surprised if there was an actual hack. 897 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 2: I doubt that very much. I think probably a more 898 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:40,320 Speaker 2: simple explanation is that, remember, Eric is sending the emails 899 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:43,760 Speaker 2: from her work account, her government account to her Gmail account, 900 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 2: So it's probably you could just fire a little official 901 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,759 Speaker 2: Information Act and requesting please provide all the emails that 902 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 2: Erica Stanford center herself, and there you go, bang, you 903 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 2: get the results, folders full of the stuff Heather. Erica 904 00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,359 Speaker 2: isn't a story because how does this affect the voter? 905 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 2: How does Eric using the Gmail affect my life? It's 906 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 2: an internal employment matter, and that's at TVs. It is 907 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 2: getting desperate with us. I would agree with that, will 908 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 2: I mean, if it's fascinating to just it's just fascinate. 909 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 2: It's interesting, that's the end of it. But nothing unless 910 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 2: something bad has happened and somebody's got a hold of 911 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 2: an email and they've used it in the wrong way. 912 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 2: Blah blah blah. It's theoretical isn't it. It's like, theoretically 913 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 2: Erica could have done something really bad if somebody got 914 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,240 Speaker 2: into her Gmail account, but did they And if they didn't, 915 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 2: then three out of ten wouldn't you say? Five to fourteen?

And this is because according to one planner, 942 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,279 Speaker 2: her wedding planner who's spoken to the media today, the 943 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 2: average wedding has apparently gone up to more than eighty 944 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 2: seven thousand dollars this year. That's up from sixty four 945 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 2: thousand dollars last year and fifty nine thousand dollars the 946 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,760 Speaker 2: year before. Suzanne Carson is the owner and creative director 947 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 2: of Wedding Professionals based out of christ churchin Is. With 948 00:41:55,040 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 2: us now, Hey, Susanne, Hello Heather, eighty seven thousand, they 949 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:01,399 Speaker 2: can reach that. 950 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:05,720 Speaker 21: We've gone up as high as one hundred and sixty 951 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 21: thousand for a thirty five person wedding, but that was international, 952 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:11,799 Speaker 21: coming in from overseas. 953 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 2: Hold on, what are they paying for flights with that money? No, 954 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 2: they weren't. 955 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 21: But it did involve many many social events related to 956 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,879 Speaker 21: the wedding, and it was family only, so they went 957 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:25,879 Speaker 21: all out to give them the experience. And I think 958 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 21: that's what it's all about these days. 959 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:30,359 Speaker 2: Okay, is I mean, are you on the regular If 960 00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 2: eighty seven thousand or thereabouts is average, are you on 961 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 2: the regular scene that as an average spent? 962 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:36,759 Speaker 13: No? 963 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 21: I don't, actually, to be honest, I think that's quite exceptional. 964 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 21: I think today people are prioritizing other things rather than extravagance. 965 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 21: I think personalization is a great big thing. I think 966 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,440 Speaker 21: they want the experience, and they want the experience for everybody. 967 00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,879 Speaker 21: So I do believe that the numbers have come down 968 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,919 Speaker 21: from our guest numbers from what it used to be. 969 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would have thought that in the current economic environment, 970 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 2: if people would be going small rather than large. 971 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 21: I think you're quite right heither. Actually, that's that's the 972 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 21: trend that we're seeing down here. 973 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 2: Yeah. And also listen, just in terms of you know, 974 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,280 Speaker 2: if some wedding planners are seeing this kind of a spend, 975 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,279 Speaker 2: is that because people are getting married later in life 976 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:21,759 Speaker 2: and have a little bit more money, like you do 977 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,400 Speaker 2: all your travel first, have your babies first, get the 978 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 2: house first, and then you go and get yourself married. 979 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 2: You've done the research. Yes, it's quite right, and the 980 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 2: lives around me. 981 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 21: Yes, No, that's that's quite right. They are there even 982 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 21: having their overseas travel together after they've you know, after 983 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,160 Speaker 21: they've been even engaged, and that they'll have a very 984 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 21: long engagement, yeah, and then decide that they'll come back 985 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 21: and then perhaps you know, they'll have babies and buy 986 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:54,759 Speaker 21: a house and then they'll think of getting married. It's 987 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 21: not all cases, but some we've seen that trend coming 988 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,440 Speaker 21: through for a while. Then you've got the officite, which 989 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 21: is the elopements. And that's probably a sad part about 990 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 21: the industry at the moment because I'm not sure what 991 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:17,880 Speaker 21: the longevity of the satisfaction for anyone having an elopement 992 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:19,560 Speaker 21: because they couldn't share it with their family. 993 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:21,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, but then you also don't remember how your mum 994 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 2: got angry with you about a stupid thing, so it 995 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,279 Speaker 2: cuts both ways. I'd say, Suzanne, thank you very much. 996 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 2: Suzanne Carson, wedding professional owner and creative director. This will 997 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 2: sting for the I wasn't talking about yes, I was talking, 998 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 2: of course, I was talking about personal experience. My mum 999 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 2: got really cross with me because I didn't do something 1000 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:39,000 Speaker 2: and I didn't think it was a big deal. And 1001 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 2: what it was was I stuffed up the seating plan. 1002 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 2: So she was sitting in Siberia and to be fair, 1003 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 2: she probably had She probably had a point, didn't she. Anyway, 1004 00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:50,120 Speaker 2: Listen on Universities reckon why Cato University will be feeling 1005 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:54,839 Speaker 2: a bit sore today because the Tertiary Education Commission, which 1006 00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 2: is basically the university watchdog, has had a crack at 1007 00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 2: the government's plan to give Why Cuttle University this Metai school. 1008 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 2: It's told the government. While Why Cuttle has been good 1009 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 2: with its money thus far, giving it the third medical 1010 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 2: school would make it a financial high risk just because 1011 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 2: of the scale of how much money we're talking about here, 1012 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:12,920 Speaker 2: scale of the project, scale of the investment and so on. 1013 00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 2: But then said of why Cuttle's overall academic performance, it 1014 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 2: continually performs within the bottom half of university educational performance indicators. 1015 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 2: Bikila willis who hands out that money to that place 1016 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:28,920 Speaker 2: if she wants to is going to be with us 1017 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 2: after six five twenty two. 1018 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:35,479 Speaker 1: Checking the point of the story, it's Heather Duplicy Ellen 1019 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:39,720 Speaker 1: Drive with one New Zealand let's get connected and youth dogs. 1020 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,400 Speaker 2: That'd be five twenty four. Hey, by the way, did 1021 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 2: you watch the full Prince Harry interview on BBC. If 1022 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:49,440 Speaker 2: you haven't, don't. It is mind numbingly boring listening to 1023 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 2: Harry and that interview is like listening to a conspiracy 1024 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 2: theorist trying to explain to you this huge cover up 1025 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:55,400 Speaker 2: that they've found out. And they know that it's a 1026 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,440 Speaker 2: cover up because they found this one fact about the 1027 00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 2: fact that there's someone sitting on a subcommittee of a 1028 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:01,799 Speaker 2: committee in the person shouldn't be sitting on it. And 1029 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:03,479 Speaker 2: he never knew that someone was sitting on it because 1030 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 2: no one wanted to admit it. But now he knows 1031 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 2: that someone is sitting on it, and that proves the 1032 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 2: whole conspiracy. But the problem with this is you're not 1033 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:12,880 Speaker 2: following because you're not listening because it's boring, and that 1034 00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:15,799 Speaker 2: is ninety nine percent of what Harry's interview is, Like 1035 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 2: I did it for you, I can tell you what's 1036 00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 2: going on here he's got a point. Okay, he's got 1037 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,719 Speaker 2: a point. He should probably have government supplied security because 1038 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 2: he was working Royal and others who do public work 1039 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:29,279 Speaker 2: get a lifetime security if they need it. And the 1040 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 2: thing is that they've chosen to do that work and 1041 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 2: they still get the lifetime security. He didn't choose to 1042 00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 2: do the work. He was born into it, so surely 1043 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 2: he qualifies for the security fair enough. And that, according 1044 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 2: to him, is the point of the interview to convince 1045 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 2: the public and Serkistama, the new UK Prime Minister, and 1046 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:48,359 Speaker 2: presumably his family, who he suspects of this conspiracy theory 1047 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,239 Speaker 2: that he needs to be given the security right. That 1048 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 2: is the point of the interview. Except it's not going 1049 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 2: to work, is it, Because that's not what everybody's talking 1050 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 2: about today. No one's talking about his security. What they're 1051 00:46:57,520 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 2: talking about is the fact that he said to the 1052 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,920 Speaker 2: BBC that the King's cancer diagnosis is terminal pretty much, 1053 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 2: and the King hasn't said that, has he. He's been 1054 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 2: carrying on like it's not terminal. So has Harry just 1055 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:10,239 Speaker 2: given up a family secret? Now? I don't know whether 1056 00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:13,799 Speaker 2: Harry is just dumb, which he definitely is. By the way, 1057 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:16,400 Speaker 2: or if he's taking terrible advice, and maybe it's a 1058 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 2: combo of the two, but either way, this feels like 1059 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:20,680 Speaker 2: the end to me. I think we can call this now. 1060 00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:22,080 Speaker 2: I think this is the end. I don't know that 1061 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,359 Speaker 2: he will ever be back in the royal fold. There 1062 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 2: was some hope that once the court case was over, 1063 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:29,319 Speaker 2: which was last week, then they could put this all 1064 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:31,879 Speaker 2: behind them, they could come together as a family, but unfortunately, 1065 00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 2: as soon as that court case was over, Harry went 1066 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 2: back to doing what Harry does, which is giving interviews 1067 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:38,439 Speaker 2: about his family, which they hate. So you can only 1068 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 2: assume that they're going to go back to doing what 1069 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 2: they do too, which is leaving him out of it 1070 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 2: and not welcoming him back in. And frankly, after watching 1071 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:47,800 Speaker 2: this happen again, can you blame anyone other than Harry? 1072 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,399 Speaker 3: Heather dupis the allen here. 1073 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 2: The try having an Indian wedding easily easily. It costs 1074 00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty to three hundred thousand dollars because 1075 00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:58,960 Speaker 2: each wedding is over three to five days. Here, the 1076 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 2: people shouldn't be spending so much money on the wedding. 1077 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:03,200 Speaker 2: They should be saving it to pay for the divorce. 1078 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,880 Speaker 2: This is all very good, good intel. Yeah, Heather, I 1079 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,080 Speaker 2: had a barbecue wedding. It cost five hundred dollars and 1080 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 2: I'm still married. Cheers. Do you know what I would 1081 00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:14,240 Speaker 2: do is if your kids were getting planning to get married, 1082 00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 2: tell them to have babies first, because it's just you know, 1083 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:21,839 Speaker 2: what you're doing is you're finding out if you're going 1084 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 2: to stick it together, aren't you? Because nobody irritates you 1085 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 2: more than your spouse. When you've got a baby screaming 1086 00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 2: at three Ama, you really hate them. So then you're 1087 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:31,399 Speaker 2: gonna find out if you want to spend eighty seven 1088 00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:33,719 Speaker 2: thousand dollars and get married to them, an't yeah?

It's not that wild, is it. 1098 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:11,560 Speaker 2: The rumor is that she will be means testing the 1099 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 2: key We saber contributions that the government gives you, right, 1100 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:15,880 Speaker 2: so you get your five hundred and blah blah whatever 1101 00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:18,080 Speaker 2: dollars they chuck into your account for having like well, Dane, 1102 00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:19,640 Speaker 2: you've got a key. We save her account bunk and 1103 00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,360 Speaker 2: it goes. But it will only go in apparently, according 1104 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,000 Speaker 2: to Thomas Coglin, for people earning under one hundred and 1105 00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 2: eighty thousand dollars a year, which feels like, why that's 1106 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,799 Speaker 2: wildly too high for a means testing. Isn't it like 1107 00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:31,480 Speaker 2: I'd bring it in lower if I was going to 1108 00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 2: means test anywhere. We'll ask her about that after six 1109 00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:37,000 Speaker 2: Huddle is standing by right now. It's coming up twenty 1110 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:37,839 Speaker 2: four away from six. 1111 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:38,040 Speaker 8: Now. 1112 00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:40,239 Speaker 3: The Corrections Heather Duplessy allen. 1113 00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:43,080 Speaker 2: The Corrections Minister wants to lock crooks up for longer. 1114 00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:45,640 Speaker 2: Criminals that serve five years or more in jail are 1115 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,080 Speaker 2: generally less likely to offend, according to the stats. So 1116 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:50,200 Speaker 2: the Minister Mark Mitchell has asked Corrections to look at 1117 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:52,440 Speaker 2: whether those shorter sentences could be extended. And he's with 1118 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:55,359 Speaker 2: us now how much hey here, how are you? I'm well, 1119 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:56,440 Speaker 2: thanks mate? How would you do it? 1120 00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:57,240 Speaker 3: That's good? 1121 00:49:57,840 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 22: Well, I don't know. 1122 00:49:58,640 --> 00:49:59,280 Speaker 5: That's why. 1123 00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 22: It's exactly why I've asked corrections to go away and 1124 00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:04,799 Speaker 22: have a look at it. But but yes, you are right. 1125 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:08,040 Speaker 22: Is that when you look at it, longer sentences mean 1126 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 22: that normally the people commit to their rehabilitation, better engage 1127 00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:17,000 Speaker 22: in more rehabilitation, and are therefore less risks to the 1128 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 22: community when they come out. 1129 00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 2: I mean, you'd have to do it at the sentencing part, 1130 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:20,600 Speaker 2: wouldn't you. 1131 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 22: Well, I'm looking at it purely from the correction side 1132 00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 22: of it, because obviously we deliver rehabilitation now. So there's 1133 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:29,640 Speaker 22: a couple of things that we did when we came 1134 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:32,360 Speaker 22: into government. We made sure that prison is on remand 1135 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:37,440 Speaker 22: who who don't get access to rehabilitation can get access 1136 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:38,160 Speaker 22: to rehabilitation. 1137 00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:39,560 Speaker 3: Now we change the law around that. 1138 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:42,840 Speaker 22: You know, we're constantly looking at the programs that do 1139 00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:45,920 Speaker 22: work that don't work, giving people realized skills, genuine realized 1140 00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:48,040 Speaker 22: skills that actually will help them when they do come 1141 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:51,000 Speaker 22: out of prison. But a part of that work too 1142 00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:54,480 Speaker 22: is just seeing, you know, how effective short sentences are 1143 00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:56,480 Speaker 22: and what the options are for us inside corrections. 1144 00:50:56,719 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 2: But what okay, so, what say does corrections have over 1145 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:01,920 Speaker 2: how long a prisoner spends in prison. 1146 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 22: Well, Corrections doesn't have any say on that because other 1147 00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:08,680 Speaker 22: than the fact they can provide advice and. 1148 00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:11,120 Speaker 3: Reports to the parole board, et cetera. 1149 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:15,719 Speaker 2: So this is basically, why are you asking Corrections to 1150 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:17,359 Speaker 2: look at it if they have no say on how 1151 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:18,239 Speaker 2: long these people are well? 1152 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:22,359 Speaker 22: Because because because we deliver rehabilitation. So even if we 1153 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 22: do go through it and identify, yes, that short sentences 1154 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,480 Speaker 22: are not very effective, maybe we can figure out ways 1155 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,360 Speaker 22: of delivering rehabilitation. I just alluded to the fact that 1156 00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:34,760 Speaker 22: we just changed the law before romand prisoners were getting 1157 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 22: no programs at all while they're in prison. And bearing 1158 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:40,360 Speaker 22: in mind that up to fifty percent of our population 1159 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:43,720 Speaker 22: at any given time is on remand either remand accused 1160 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:47,040 Speaker 22: or remand convicted, So we're already making changes around that. 1161 00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:48,919 Speaker 22: It's just a broader piece of work that I've asked 1162 00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:52,680 Speaker 22: Corrections to do to identify what the real issues are 1163 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:56,080 Speaker 22: around shortest sentences sentences. 1164 00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:59,200 Speaker 2: The hero social cited match when it says the ministers 1165 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 2: looking at this and he wants to swap the short 1166 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:03,880 Speaker 2: sentences for long sentences, That's not really what you're planning 1167 00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 2: to do. You're just trying to how to get the 1168 00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:07,840 Speaker 2: short sentence people not correct? Reoffended? 1169 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:11,080 Speaker 22: Yes, yes, correct, Well you don't have a broader look 1170 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:13,360 Speaker 22: at it. And if and if it's really clear that 1171 00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 22: actually short shorter sentence are shorter sentences aren't effective, in 1172 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:20,880 Speaker 22: fact they counterintuitive, then at least we've armed with that 1173 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:24,080 Speaker 22: information as a government and informs us to make decisions. 1174 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:26,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I see. Hey, have you been sending yourself emails 1175 00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:28,840 Speaker 2: from your work account to your Gmail account? 1176 00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 3: No? 1177 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:30,320 Speaker 22: I haven't. 1178 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:33,720 Speaker 2: Okay, good, good. You're obviously smarter than Erica. 1179 00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 9: Have you. 1180 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:35,920 Speaker 2: Have you asked Erika about what's going on with her 1181 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:36,440 Speaker 2: printer here? 1182 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:38,600 Speaker 3: No, I've got no idea. 1183 00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:40,800 Speaker 22: All I know is that you had a bit of 1184 00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:42,600 Speaker 22: a disaster just coming on here, that one of your 1185 00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:44,959 Speaker 22: braces broke. But I have to say they're worried. 1186 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:48,720 Speaker 2: I can't avoid the German. 1187 00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 22: But you sound fine, You sound fine. 1188 00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:55,840 Speaker 2: I appreciate it. Look terrible though. Mark Mitchell corrections to 1189 00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:58,359 Speaker 2: see it just looks look just so that you're an 1190 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,279 Speaker 2: honest now, because now he's let the cat out of 1191 00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:02,560 Speaker 2: the bag. What happened is when I was twenty one, 1192 00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:04,759 Speaker 2: I had braces, right, don't judge me for it. I 1193 00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 2: was a nerd. So anyway, after that, they put a 1194 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 2: wire behind your teeth, which I'm telling you this for 1195 00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:12,520 Speaker 2: the benefit of Joseph Gani, who didn't know that that 1196 00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 2: happens after you have braces. Then what happened was here, 1197 00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:18,360 Speaker 2: I am, at the age of forty eating an apple, 1198 00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:22,040 Speaker 2: and the wire behind my tooth broke. And what do 1199 00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:25,400 Speaker 2: we know about reading the Bible? Women should not eat apples. 1200 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 2: The last one who ate an apple basically destroyed womankind, 1201 00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:31,600 Speaker 2: and I destroyed my wire. Twenty away from six. 1202 00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty Find You're 1203 00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:36,440 Speaker 1: one of a kind. 1204 00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:40,000 Speaker 2: Joseph Ghani, the Huddle Child Fund CEO, and Thomas Scrimger 1205 00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:41,560 Speaker 2: of the Maxim Institute. How are you two? 1206 00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 15: Hello? 1207 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:44,680 Speaker 2: Are you there? Thomas? 1208 00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:45,480 Speaker 17: Hi there? 1209 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:48,680 Speaker 2: You'll like you'll like my little reference to the Bible. Ah, 1210 00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:50,480 Speaker 2: because you work for the Maxim Institute. 1211 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:55,360 Speaker 5: Oh exactly, hither it's that great to say that you're literate. 1212 00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:57,640 Speaker 2: Thank you very much. I think that's a delay rather 1213 00:53:57,760 --> 00:53:59,719 Speaker 2: maybe or maybe I just had him thinking on his 1214 00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 2: feet right there, Eric, Josie, what do you think of 1215 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:07,160 Speaker 2: Erica sending himself the sending herself rather the Gmail account stuff. 1216 00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:09,960 Speaker 23: So, I mean, nothing bad has happened, but there is 1217 00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:14,120 Speaker 23: a precedent for this, right. The reason that politicians have 1218 00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:19,320 Speaker 23: their own you know, they don't send their professional emails 1219 00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:21,719 Speaker 23: that from their political addresses to Gmail is because as 1220 00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:23,760 Speaker 23: a risk that stuff leaks, or they send. 1221 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:25,200 Speaker 2: It because it's encrypted. 1222 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:28,400 Speaker 23: But look at the Signal thing, the scandal in America 1223 00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:31,560 Speaker 23: with Pete Hegsath and Mike Waltz has now lost his job. 1224 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:33,920 Speaker 23: It went, I mean that it just blew up. It 1225 00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:36,120 Speaker 23: was it was chaos, right, they're sending it to journalists, 1226 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:38,040 Speaker 23: they're sending it to his wife and his brother and 1227 00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:41,239 Speaker 23: so on. So the reason why you have these processes 1228 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:43,080 Speaker 23: is to protect information. 1229 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 2: That might actually But what I would say to you, Josie, is, 1230 00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:47,200 Speaker 2: in the case of the Signal thing in the US, 1231 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:50,359 Speaker 2: it wasn't theoretical, right, They actually included a journal who 1232 00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:52,600 Speaker 2: should not have seen any of the stuff at all. 1233 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:56,640 Speaker 2: They actually included him in war plans. This is theoretical. 1234 00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 2: With with Erica, as far as we know, she's been 1235 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:01,600 Speaker 2: sending herself some budget docu about little old like five 1236 00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 2: million dollars spend in New Zealand, who cares. 1237 00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 23: Yes, but it starts there and next thing, you're waging 1238 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:08,799 Speaker 23: war on Yemen. You know you've got you've got to 1239 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,960 Speaker 23: have the rules in place. So Luxlon does have to 1240 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:14,560 Speaker 23: pull her up. But it's not a story that lasts 1241 00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:18,000 Speaker 23: beyond today, surely not unless there's something else that TV 1242 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:19,680 Speaker 23: ands and mikey which ies out very much. 1243 00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 2: Thomas, what do you make it? You're like totally exercised 1244 00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:24,440 Speaker 2: by eric A sending herself emails to her Gmail account. 1245 00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:27,640 Speaker 24: Well, I'd like to wait till I see the full 1246 00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:30,359 Speaker 24: story of the details that I don't jump the gun here, 1247 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:34,400 Speaker 24: but obviously it's it's not a good look. Security is 1248 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 24: really important for cabinet ministers. We live in a world 1249 00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 24: that is not as friendly as it might have been 1250 00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:43,320 Speaker 24: in the past, so that sort of discipline around data 1251 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 24: is pretty important. So I don't know how serious it's 1252 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,920 Speaker 24: going to be, but certainly Luxon should be taking a 1253 00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:52,080 Speaker 24: hard look at the decision making and security processes about 1254 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:53,360 Speaker 24: government information. 1255 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:55,480 Speaker 2: Tell them to stop doing that. Now, what do you 1256 00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 2: think Thomas about the idea of dealing Well, well, I 1257 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:01,239 Speaker 2: have to be honest with you, I'm disappointed that Mike 1258 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,400 Speaker 2: Mitchell didn't want to replace all the short sentences with 1259 00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 2: long sentences, are you, Oh, well. 1260 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:10,560 Speaker 24: I think sentencing is one element of the justice system. 1261 00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:13,040 Speaker 24: I don't think it's the most important one. I mean, 1262 00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:16,799 Speaker 24: it's probably more significant that people have a concern that 1263 00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:20,120 Speaker 24: they will be caught and successfully prosecuted in the first place. 1264 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,000 Speaker 24: And then the second problem is that the prisons themselves 1265 00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:26,400 Speaker 24: and then Corrections just commissioned the report a couple of 1266 00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:29,239 Speaker 24: weeks back it came out, and the prisons have just 1267 00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 24: a profound gang influence. They run exercise a strong amount 1268 00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:36,000 Speaker 24: of power in the prisons themselves. So if that's the 1269 00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:38,760 Speaker 24: state of the prisons, seeing people there for a longer 1270 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:42,840 Speaker 24: amount of time isn't actually going to solve the problem. 1271 00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:44,799 Speaker 24: So I think there are kind of other elements other 1272 00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:46,560 Speaker 24: than sentence things. 1273 00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:49,520 Speaker 2: Isn't that the opposite of what Mark Mitchell has found. 1274 00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:52,280 Speaker 2: What he's found is if you do a long sentence, 1275 00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:55,040 Speaker 2: you're less likely to reoffend. It's the short sentences. There's 1276 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:56,680 Speaker 2: actually the people who stay there for a short amount 1277 00:56:56,680 --> 00:56:58,680 Speaker 2: of time who are likely to go out and do 1278 00:56:58,760 --> 00:56:59,319 Speaker 2: naughty things. 1279 00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:04,000 Speaker 24: Again, Well, that's possibly correct, but I think Mark Mitchell 1280 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:07,279 Speaker 24: doesn't have He said he's looking into this. It's not 1281 00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:11,480 Speaker 24: an air type plan. This is going ahead. So certainly 1282 00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:14,120 Speaker 24: it's fair enough to look at sentence links are a 1283 00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:18,680 Speaker 24: part of the justice system and crime, you know, as 1284 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 24: a problem that people are concerned about. But in the 1285 00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:25,680 Speaker 24: first place, prisons aren't first and foremost about rehabilitation and recidivism. 1286 00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:28,360 Speaker 24: Those are important secondary concerns. But really we should be 1287 00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:31,600 Speaker 24: looking at are the sentences proportionate to the crimes, Are 1288 00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 24: the prisons working well as prisons? And then recidivism and 1289 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:37,280 Speaker 24: rehabilitation are a second conversation. 1290 00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:39,840 Speaker 2: Okay, hold your thought on that, Josey. I'm going to 1291 00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:41,000 Speaker 2: come back to you after the break. I want to 1292 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:42,760 Speaker 2: hear what you've got to say. Sixteen away from five 1293 00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:43,560 Speaker 2: or six. 1294 00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 1: Rather the huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty achieve 1295 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 1: extraordinary results with unparalleled reach. 1296 00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 2: All right, you're back with a huddle Joseph Beguinni and Thomascrims. 1297 00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:55,000 Speaker 2: You're right, Josie, what did you think of what Mark 1298 00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:55,680 Speaker 2: Mitchell said. 1299 00:57:56,920 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 23: He's looking at the evidence right now and and he's 1300 00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 23: not making any decisions. The first thing I would say 1301 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:04,960 Speaker 23: is going to cost billions of dollars. We're already spending 1302 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:08,120 Speaker 23: an extra nine billion to make twelve billion on defense, 1303 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 23: which I think we need to do. It's a lot 1304 00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:12,640 Speaker 23: of money, so you've got to do You've got to 1305 00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:14,600 Speaker 23: think about the trade offs first. That's that's going to 1306 00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:17,280 Speaker 23: be a lot less money going into health to go 1307 00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:19,360 Speaker 23: into something where the evidence is mixed. So, yes, this 1308 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 23: data coming out saying at the moment looks like shorter sentences. 1309 00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:26,640 Speaker 23: You come out and you do more recidivism and you 1310 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,800 Speaker 23: cause more crime. But that evidence is quite mixed. If 1311 00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:32,080 Speaker 23: you look at the evidence around the three strike slaw 1312 00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 23: when we had it, crime didn't go down. So people 1313 00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:37,880 Speaker 23: were getting longer sentences. Crime wasn't going down. The difference 1314 00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:41,760 Speaker 23: is the rehab. The you know, the halfway houses like 1315 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 23: Dave Letelly's parents who run Grace Amazing right, and Howard Lee. 1316 00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:48,840 Speaker 23: You know they teach people to give them skills like 1317 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:49,640 Speaker 23: driving cars. 1318 00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:52,360 Speaker 2: They give them, but not allood Jose, not. 1319 00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 23: All halfway house gone. But the ones that wrap some 1320 00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:58,520 Speaker 23: support around them when they come out a job, something 1321 00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:00,800 Speaker 23: that makes them not go back to the gangs. A job, 1322 00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:03,840 Speaker 23: a house, learned to drive a car with a regal license, 1323 00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:06,680 Speaker 23: All of that stuff makes a real difference. So I think, Mitch, 1324 00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:08,960 Speaker 23: I hope we'll look at all of that and go 1325 00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 23: where can we do that best, and consult with Dave Letelly, 1326 00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:15,480 Speaker 23: consult with Shane White out at Horney White to Tea 1327 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 23: who does kapahaka in the prisons and has probably turned 1328 00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:21,120 Speaker 23: around more people than any government program. 1329 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:23,920 Speaker 2: So talk to those guys. You get it right, Tomas, 1330 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:25,680 Speaker 2: You reckon that there's a trumpy pattern here and what 1331 00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:28,000 Speaker 2: we're seeing with the elections, and if so, what is it? 1332 00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 24: Oh well, I think certainly in the Canadian elections, Trump 1333 00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 24: had a massive effect. The Conservative leader Pierre Poliev can 1334 00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:39,400 Speaker 24: probably feel a bit hard done by. The Canadian national 1335 00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:42,600 Speaker 24: identity is pretty well based around not being the Americans. 1336 00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:45,360 Speaker 24: So you know, anything that had the faintest worth of 1337 00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:48,320 Speaker 24: Trump and they ran a mile from I'm not really 1338 00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:52,560 Speaker 24: sure it's the same with Australia. They're a lot further away. 1339 00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:56,640 Speaker 24: The tariffs aren't quite as severe for them. Anthony Albanezi 1340 00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:59,640 Speaker 24: has just been elected for his second term. You normally 1341 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:03,480 Speaker 24: get second go and Peter Dudden wasn't the strongest candidate. 1342 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 24: They didn't have a clear policy vision, They weren't able 1343 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:09,760 Speaker 24: to articulate that and just didn't talk about the things 1344 01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:12,760 Speaker 24: ordinary Australians were worried about. And then finally he just 1345 01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:16,520 Speaker 24: wasn't that likable. He wasn't a charming, charismatic figure. So 1346 01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:20,200 Speaker 24: media love Trump stories because it gets clicks tempting to 1347 01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:22,120 Speaker 24: look for it, but it's probably a bit more boring 1348 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:25,120 Speaker 24: than that Australians cared about bread and butter issues and 1349 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:27,560 Speaker 24: the Australian Liberals than off of them something for it. 1350 01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:30,360 Speaker 23: I think if you're looking for patterns, there's a lesson 1351 01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:33,760 Speaker 23: there for opposition parties of any right or left right 1352 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:36,760 Speaker 23: that if you go into an election thinking that arising 1353 01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:40,400 Speaker 23: the polls is support for you, and not arising the 1354 01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:42,600 Speaker 23: polls to say we don't like the incumbents of the government. 1355 01:00:42,680 --> 01:00:45,280 Speaker 23: So that's what was happening in both Australia and Canada, 1356 01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:49,439 Speaker 23: and both parties I think mistook that for support for them. 1357 01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:53,000 Speaker 23: So when that fell away and Trump's chaos looked so 1358 01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:58,240 Speaker 23: chaotic that you had voters going, I choose competence over chaos. 1359 01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:00,120 Speaker 23: I choose someone who looks like they could run a 1360 01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:02,080 Speaker 23: corner daring over the nutter. 1361 01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:04,760 Speaker 2: In the ways say about elections, we always say that 1362 01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 2: elections are about the economy, right, yeah, and Donald Trump, 1363 01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:10,240 Speaker 2: So it's about what you got in your pocket. And 1364 01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:12,360 Speaker 2: Donald Trump and all the chaos that he's causing at 1365 01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:14,160 Speaker 2: the moment threatens what you've got in your pocket. It 1366 01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:16,960 Speaker 2: makes you feel vulnerable. So that's the other lesson, right, 1367 01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 2: So you go from the incumbent and you go for 1368 01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:20,720 Speaker 2: the competent one, as you say. 1369 01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:25,080 Speaker 23: And the lesson for Carney and Albanesi, Australian and Canada 1370 01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:28,280 Speaker 23: have just suddenly won from incumbency is that people just 1371 01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:30,520 Speaker 23: want you to make their lives better off. And it's 1372 01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:32,760 Speaker 23: and I think for the for the right that's playing 1373 01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:36,720 Speaker 23: the populace card here. The lesson is, you know, people 1374 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:40,400 Speaker 23: don't want woke. They're very pleased that we're past Pete woke. 1375 01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:42,520 Speaker 23: They don't want the opposite of that. They don't want 1376 01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:46,000 Speaker 23: a conservative gross stuff no, and they don't want to 1377 01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:50,040 Speaker 23: sort of over correction the conservative culture war. So they're 1378 01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:52,160 Speaker 23: just sick of talking about it. And I think both 1379 01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:55,560 Speaker 23: Dutton and Poiliver and I'm loving all the different ways 1380 01:01:55,560 --> 01:02:01,440 Speaker 23: that we're pronouncing his name, but that he campaigned does 1381 01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:02,320 Speaker 23: the Trump candidate. 1382 01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:03,040 Speaker 2: So did Dutton. 1383 01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:05,040 Speaker 23: Then they tried to walk away from that and back 1384 01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:06,840 Speaker 23: off and go I'm not Trump, I'm not Trump. I mean, 1385 01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:09,280 Speaker 23: if you saw Dutton's face when one of his candidates 1386 01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:12,640 Speaker 23: said make Australia great again, and he went, oh bloody hell. 1387 01:02:12,480 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, poor old Dutton. He wasn't even going to get elected. 1388 01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:18,200 Speaker 2: I mean, you just need to look at his face. Hey, Thomas, 1389 01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:20,000 Speaker 2: how much did you spend on your wedding? 1390 01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:21,400 Speaker 8: Oh? 1391 01:02:21,440 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 24: Well, hither I saw that this might be coming up, 1392 01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:25,760 Speaker 24: and you'll be pleased to know. In the last two 1393 01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:29,000 Speaker 24: and a half years, I've been to nine weddings, so 1394 01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:31,600 Speaker 24: I'm a bit of a wedding attending expert at the moment. 1395 01:02:31,920 --> 01:02:33,960 Speaker 23: My ag funerals Thomas, So yeah. 1396 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:38,160 Speaker 24: That's the other end of things. But honestly, I heard 1397 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:42,800 Speaker 24: the interview and the wedding planner saying kiwis or spending 1398 01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:45,840 Speaker 24: eighty seven thousand dollars on weddings. I don't know that 1399 01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:47,600 Speaker 24: any of the weddings I've been to in the last 1400 01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:50,920 Speaker 24: couple of years would have spent even half that. But 1401 01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:52,480 Speaker 24: I think the thing they had in common is that 1402 01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 24: they weren't hiring wedding planners to organize their wedding. But 1403 01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:59,000 Speaker 24: I think it is interesting that people still seem to 1404 01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:01,360 Speaker 24: think weddings are important, and you're talking about delaying them 1405 01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 24: until after other life milestones. But people still clearly see 1406 01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:07,920 Speaker 24: something in weddings and celebrating commitments, and that's something that 1407 01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:08,680 Speaker 24: we should encourage. 1408 01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:12,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's because it's your me me me day, isn't it, Josie? 1409 01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:15,400 Speaker 23: What pressure If you've spent eighty nine let's call it ninety. 1410 01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:17,680 Speaker 2: One of his friends has spent ninety thousand, and just 1411 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:20,040 Speaker 2: heard him say on the radio, nobody spent that much. 1412 01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:22,120 Speaker 23: Now if it's not the happiest day of your life. 1413 01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:23,920 Speaker 23: I mean, for me, my wedding was a blur. I 1414 01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:24,600 Speaker 23: didn't eat anything. 1415 01:03:24,880 --> 01:03:26,320 Speaker 2: I hated it. It was hard work. 1416 01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 23: And if you spent ninety k you'd be just sitting 1417 01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:31,840 Speaker 23: there going, oh my god, I'm miserable. What happened to 1418 01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:32,920 Speaker 23: the cost of living crisis? 1419 01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 2: Guys too right, I totally agree what's going on here? 1420 01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:38,520 Speaker 2: Hey guys, thanks very much, really appreciate it. That's a huddle. Josepiguanni, 1421 01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:40,720 Speaker 2: Thomas Scrimer seven away from six. 1422 01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:42,760 Speaker 3: It's the Heather Duple. 1423 01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:46,240 Speaker 1: See allan Drive Full Show podcast on My Hard Radio 1424 01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:47,680 Speaker 1: powered by News Talk. 1425 01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:51,480 Speaker 2: Zeb Heather the reason that they start means testing at 1426 01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:53,600 Speaker 2: one hundred and eighty thousand dollars a year, so that 1427 01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:55,920 Speaker 2: the majority of voters can say, oh, that doesn't impact me, 1428 01:03:55,960 --> 01:03:58,080 Speaker 2: and those rich people don't deserve it, the greedy buggers. 1429 01:03:58,360 --> 01:04:01,600 Speaker 2: So it's pushed through. And Richard makes a very fair point, right, 1430 01:04:01,640 --> 01:04:03,440 Speaker 2: So the means testing. If you're the finance minister and 1431 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:05,400 Speaker 2: you means test something at one hundred and eighty thousand dollars, 1432 01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:07,280 Speaker 2: which is what we're going to talk to Nicola about about. 1433 01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:09,600 Speaker 2: When she's with us after sex. You look like you're 1434 01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 2: doing something to save money, but most people don't get 1435 01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:14,720 Speaker 2: annoyed at you. But you're not really saving money. And 1436 01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:16,720 Speaker 2: I thought the whole exercise was to save money because 1437 01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:19,040 Speaker 2: we're broke. But anyway, listen, on the case, we'll ask 1438 01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:22,840 Speaker 2: her about it. On the case of Donald Trump, people 1439 01:04:22,880 --> 01:04:26,080 Speaker 2: are very angry at Donald today because Donald has said 1440 01:04:26,120 --> 01:04:29,640 Speaker 2: that he's going to reopen Alcatraz, and that's like, that's 1441 01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:32,240 Speaker 2: blowing a lot of minds. But people are also very 1442 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 2: really angry at Donald yesterday because he posted a picture 1443 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:38,600 Speaker 2: of himself on May the fourth as a Star Wars character, 1444 01:04:38,800 --> 01:04:41,480 Speaker 2: and people didn't find that funny, and people were really 1445 01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:45,640 Speaker 2: like apoplectic at him the other day because he posted 1446 01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:47,640 Speaker 2: a picture of himself dressed up as a pope, didn't 1447 01:04:47,680 --> 01:04:51,600 Speaker 2: he And people were really really angry, really angry at 1448 01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:53,840 Speaker 2: him a few weeks ago because he posted this video 1449 01:04:54,240 --> 01:04:56,440 Speaker 2: where he'd imagined what Gaza would look like if it 1450 01:04:56,440 --> 01:04:58,000 Speaker 2: was a Trump resort. Do you get to see there's 1451 01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:00,919 Speaker 2: a pattern here. People are getting AnGR at Donald Trump 1452 01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:03,320 Speaker 2: for what he's posting on and stop getting angry at him. 1453 01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 2: That's what he wants. There's literally no other explanation. There 1454 01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:11,000 Speaker 2: is literally no other explanation for him posting a picture 1455 01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:14,760 Speaker 2: of himself dressed as the pope, other than to wind 1456 01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:17,720 Speaker 2: people up. So stop getting a wound up. He's living 1457 01:05:17,760 --> 01:05:20,080 Speaker 2: rent free in your house. I'm talking to my husband 1458 01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:22,000 Speaker 2: right now, so I'm sick of talking about Donald Trump 1459 01:05:22,040 --> 01:05:24,000 Speaker 2: and how angry he is at Donald Trump speaking, which 1460 01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:26,520 Speaker 2: I tell you who's living rent free in my house. 1461 01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:30,400 Speaker 2: In my head is Wellington City Council.

Do you enjoy it? 1467 01:05:45,360 --> 01:05:47,160 Speaker 2: I enjoy it because it kind of is like an 1468 01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:50,480 Speaker 2: emblem of what we shouldn't do. So I'm going to 1469 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:52,919 Speaker 2: tell you what Wellington has been doing with Dixon Street, 1470 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:55,880 Speaker 2: so that you can understand why these Numpties, why old 1471 01:05:55,960 --> 01:05:58,680 Speaker 2: mate chief Numpty is not running for me or anymore. 1472 01:05:58,680 --> 01:06:00,480 Speaker 2: Because this all explain it will get back to that 1473 01:06:00,560 --> 01:06:02,560 Speaker 2: later on.

Bony chance. 1490 01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:09,680 Speaker 15: Look, I don't think so. To be honest, I don't 1491 01:07:09,720 --> 01:07:12,840 Speaker 15: send many emails at all. I've got an incredible team 1492 01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:15,200 Speaker 15: of people who do that for me. I tend to 1493 01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:17,840 Speaker 15: send the odd text or what's that message? And that's 1494 01:07:17,880 --> 01:07:18,280 Speaker 15: about it. 1495 01:07:18,560 --> 01:07:20,880 Speaker 2: Really. How do you get away with not doing emails? 1496 01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:21,680 Speaker 3: Well? 1497 01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:26,040 Speaker 15: I do them very rarely, and that's because I either 1498 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:28,440 Speaker 15: a briefing officials face to face saying could you get 1499 01:07:28,440 --> 01:07:31,320 Speaker 15: me this? Could do that please? I'm meeting with people 1500 01:07:31,440 --> 01:07:34,680 Speaker 15: face to face, or I'm talking to my team and saying, oh, look, 1501 01:07:34,680 --> 01:07:37,080 Speaker 15: could you just make sure that that minister's aware of this? 1502 01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:41,440 Speaker 15: Sometimes we do formal correspondents letters and the like, but 1503 01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:44,720 Speaker 15: very rarely am I sitting at my keyboard writing an email. 1504 01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:47,520 Speaker 2: So do you just have a person who you say, 1505 01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:50,200 Speaker 2: can you please email Chris back and say to Chris, yep, 1506 01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:52,160 Speaker 2: I'll be there for his announcement about blah blah on 1507 01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:52,560 Speaker 2: that day. 1508 01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:56,160 Speaker 15: Well, it's not so we don't so much communicate in 1509 01:07:56,200 --> 01:07:59,120 Speaker 15: that way. So information comes to me in hard copy 1510 01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:03,040 Speaker 15: from my age sees. My diary is there obviously in 1511 01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:06,800 Speaker 15: my calendar. And then I have a lot of verbal briefings, 1512 01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:09,000 Speaker 15: a lot of written briefings, a lot of discussions with 1513 01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:10,960 Speaker 15: colleagues on a daily basis, face to face. 1514 01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:13,560 Speaker 2: What about in your personal life? Don't you get like 1515 01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:15,960 Speaker 2: your power companies are emailing you and saying, we've got 1516 01:08:15,960 --> 01:08:18,240 Speaker 2: to come around and fix the power box is Monday 1517 01:08:18,320 --> 01:08:20,559 Speaker 2: ten o'clock. Okay, Oh sure. 1518 01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:22,639 Speaker 15: I use a Gmail account for some of that stuff. 1519 01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:25,120 Speaker 15: You know, the notices from school where child A has 1520 01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:26,960 Speaker 15: been well behaved, your child be has been bad? 1521 01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:29,000 Speaker 2: Do you wag or do you just not? 1522 01:08:30,479 --> 01:08:34,560 Speaker 15: I occasionally have, especially if it's nice news, you just 1523 01:08:34,640 --> 01:08:35,839 Speaker 15: leave news. 1524 01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:37,320 Speaker 3: Well. 1525 01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:40,800 Speaker 15: Look, the way I think about it is, if something's urgent, 1526 01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:43,559 Speaker 15: you're going to get on the phone. If something's important 1527 01:08:43,600 --> 01:08:45,760 Speaker 15: to the relationship, you're probably going to be face to 1528 01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:48,640 Speaker 15: face or having a conversation. Email can be quite an 1529 01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:51,719 Speaker 15: impersonal way of communicating. It's hard to get a sense 1530 01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:55,200 Speaker 15: of tone. I do use it sometimes, but it's definitely 1531 01:08:55,240 --> 01:08:57,240 Speaker 15: not my most common mode communica. 1532 01:08:57,240 --> 01:08:59,720 Speaker 2: Actually, you're a Baller, You've described my best life. I'm 1533 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:01,639 Speaker 2: going to stop emailing henceforth and just say if it's 1534 01:09:01,640 --> 01:09:03,840 Speaker 2: good for the Finance minister, it's good for me. Now listen. 1535 01:09:04,240 --> 01:09:07,600 Speaker 2: David Seymour, I loved his idea of cutting the ministerial portfolios. 1536 01:09:07,720 --> 01:09:07,920 Speaker 5: Right. 1537 01:09:08,400 --> 01:09:11,200 Speaker 2: He wants to get rid of the economic growth portfolio. 1538 01:09:11,200 --> 01:09:13,559 Speaker 2: I would assume because it's not necessary, is it? 1539 01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:14,800 Speaker 13: Well? 1540 01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:18,200 Speaker 15: I think it is necessary. It's been very useful being 1541 01:09:18,240 --> 01:09:21,280 Speaker 15: able to take an overall view of the work happening 1542 01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:25,360 Speaker 15: across multiple portfolios to drive economic growth, to ensure we're 1543 01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:28,920 Speaker 15: prioritizing the right things driving it forward. Well, having a 1544 01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:32,599 Speaker 15: specific portfolio dedicated to that has meant that I've had 1545 01:09:32,640 --> 01:09:36,479 Speaker 15: officials ensuring that we're engaging with businesses, that we are 1546 01:09:36,520 --> 01:09:40,400 Speaker 15: responding to their specific concerns that they're raising. And in fact, 1547 01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:43,519 Speaker 15: some of that then leads to policy ideas being put 1548 01:09:43,520 --> 01:09:46,200 Speaker 15: on the agenda that wouldn't otherwise be there. And look, 1549 01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:48,240 Speaker 15: there are always debates about do you integrate it all 1550 01:09:48,280 --> 01:09:51,280 Speaker 15: into one portfolio or have separate portfolios. In my case, 1551 01:09:51,680 --> 01:09:56,320 Speaker 15: Treasury provide me fiscal advice and economic advice and MB 1552 01:09:57,120 --> 01:09:58,679 Speaker 15: support me and the economic growth. 1553 01:09:58,439 --> 01:10:01,920 Speaker 2: That'll arm you though, I mean, like so basically everybody 1554 01:10:02,080 --> 01:10:04,840 Speaker 2: in government should be aiming for economic growth. That's how 1555 01:10:04,840 --> 01:10:06,400 Speaker 2: we're going to get more money into the country. The 1556 01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:07,720 Speaker 2: fact that you have to have it as a job 1557 01:10:07,800 --> 01:10:10,240 Speaker 2: title to make them think about it is kind of freaky, 1558 01:10:10,320 --> 01:10:10,680 Speaker 2: isn't it. 1559 01:10:11,320 --> 01:10:11,479 Speaker 3: Well? 1560 01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:15,320 Speaker 15: I agree everyone should, but there are always questions about 1561 01:10:15,439 --> 01:10:17,960 Speaker 15: are we prioritizing the things that are going to most 1562 01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:20,800 Speaker 15: turn the dial because there are literally one hundred things 1563 01:10:20,840 --> 01:10:23,240 Speaker 15: every minister could do each day. So let's make sure 1564 01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:25,640 Speaker 15: we're focusing on the things that are most important and 1565 01:10:25,680 --> 01:10:29,479 Speaker 15: take opportunities to be really clear about what that program is, 1566 01:10:29,520 --> 01:10:32,760 Speaker 15: whether we're on track, what the obstacles are and are found. 1567 01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:34,439 Speaker 15: It's a useful way of driving activity. 1568 01:10:34,680 --> 01:10:36,720 Speaker 2: Thomas Coglan says that you're going to means test the 1569 01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:39,040 Speaker 2: government's key we save a contribution to cut people off 1570 01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:41,040 Speaker 2: who earn above one hundred and eighty thousand dollars. Is 1571 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:43,280 Speaker 2: it true? 1572 01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:47,120 Speaker 15: He wrote that article off the back of a interview 1573 01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:50,240 Speaker 15: I had with you last week, And what I pledge 1574 01:10:50,280 --> 01:10:53,000 Speaker 15: to both him and will pledge to you now is 1575 01:10:53,040 --> 01:10:55,080 Speaker 15: I am not going to play the rule and rule 1576 01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:58,320 Speaker 15: out game between now and Budget day, because what you 1577 01:10:58,360 --> 01:11:00,760 Speaker 15: can see is that anything I say do in that 1578 01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:03,360 Speaker 15: nature is going to be poured over. It's going to 1579 01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:06,120 Speaker 15: be raked over. But what I can tell you is 1580 01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:11,160 Speaker 15: that I have given Thomas a specific chunky saving that 1581 01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:13,120 Speaker 15: we are making in the budget for him to run 1582 01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:16,479 Speaker 15: in your sister publication, the New Zealand Herald tomorrow morning. 1583 01:11:16,880 --> 01:11:20,519 Speaker 15: It accounts for a billion dollars worth of money over 1584 01:11:20,520 --> 01:11:22,680 Speaker 15: the next four years that will now be available for 1585 01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:25,760 Speaker 15: health and education services and other good things. And I 1586 01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:28,120 Speaker 15: think when New Zealanders read about that savings and I 1587 01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:31,200 Speaker 15: should have, they'll say, good on you, very good doing 1588 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:32,839 Speaker 15: this to shut out That's a great idea. 1589 01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:35,320 Speaker 2: You're doing this because he's harping on about this means 1590 01:11:35,360 --> 01:11:37,360 Speaker 2: testing stuff, and you're like, just give him something to 1591 01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:38,519 Speaker 2: just satisfy him. 1592 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:41,760 Speaker 15: Well, well, look, when people are agree not to play 1593 01:11:41,760 --> 01:11:43,479 Speaker 15: the rule in and rule out game, there can be 1594 01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:44,639 Speaker 15: all sorts of rewards. Here. 1595 01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:48,759 Speaker 2: She was, Hey, listen, how big is our structural deficit? 1596 01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:53,559 Speaker 15: Well, we will update that figure at the budget. The 1597 01:11:53,560 --> 01:11:57,160 Speaker 15: structural deficit, for those listening is the difference between what 1598 01:11:57,280 --> 01:12:00,519 Speaker 15: we're earning in terms of revenue from tech and other 1599 01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:03,120 Speaker 15: sources and what we're spending in terms of the commitments 1600 01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:06,479 Speaker 15: government has to funding things. And what you expect is 1601 01:12:06,479 --> 01:12:08,360 Speaker 15: that when an economy is in a downturn, it's not 1602 01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:11,440 Speaker 15: unusual for it to go into deficit. So a structural 1603 01:12:11,479 --> 01:12:14,880 Speaker 15: deficit is saying even if the economy tipped up, we 1604 01:12:15,080 --> 01:12:18,800 Speaker 15: still think that New Zealand would be spending more and 1605 01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:23,200 Speaker 15: that's well, that's the position the last Labor government left 1606 01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:26,799 Speaker 15: us in. And what I can tell you is we 1607 01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:30,639 Speaker 15: are making really good progress in reducing that structural deficit 1608 01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:33,880 Speaker 15: in the budget and will update on that figure at 1609 01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:34,479 Speaker 15: budget time. 1610 01:12:34,560 --> 01:12:37,519 Speaker 2: Okay, so when do you think we will stop running 1611 01:12:37,560 --> 01:12:38,599 Speaker 2: a structural deficit? 1612 01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:43,559 Speaker 15: Well, I will update that at budget time as well 1613 01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:48,120 Speaker 15: as of previous can see an insight, yes, because as 1614 01:12:48,160 --> 01:12:51,360 Speaker 15: I've said, we're going to have the box back into 1615 01:12:51,439 --> 01:12:55,400 Speaker 15: balance with a very very lean surplus in twenty twenty nine, 1616 01:12:55,520 --> 01:12:57,880 Speaker 15: and that reflects the fact that in that year we'll 1617 01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:00,920 Speaker 15: be earning enough to meet our arms spending commitments. 1618 01:13:01,040 --> 01:13:04,559 Speaker 2: Okay. Have you seen the tertiary ed Education Commission warning 1619 01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:06,759 Speaker 2: about giving White Cuttle Uni that medical school. 1620 01:13:07,560 --> 01:13:10,680 Speaker 15: Yes, I saw that in our article from the Otago 1621 01:13:10,840 --> 01:13:16,800 Speaker 15: Daily Times, who are obviously big supporters of Otago University 1622 01:13:16,960 --> 01:13:20,920 Speaker 15: and look, that's one set of issues that will be 1623 01:13:21,760 --> 01:13:24,559 Speaker 15: in minister's minds alongside a series coming. 1624 01:13:26,520 --> 01:13:28,360 Speaker 2: I haven't got any barrier to push here at all. 1625 01:13:28,439 --> 01:13:31,000 Speaker 2: In fact, I really like Neil Quigley who runs the show, 1626 01:13:31,040 --> 01:13:33,559 Speaker 2: but I don't. I don't think that you can give 1627 01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:36,360 Speaker 2: it to Whitkatle University. They just are not up to it. 1628 01:13:37,240 --> 01:13:37,439 Speaker 13: Well. 1629 01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:41,040 Speaker 15: Look, under the Coalition agreement we are a full cost 1630 01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:44,960 Speaker 15: benefit analysis must be presented before Cabinet makes a decision 1631 01:13:45,040 --> 01:13:47,759 Speaker 15: with respect to the way Kato Medical School, and ministers 1632 01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:51,080 Speaker 15: are still considering advice from the Ministry of Health on 1633 01:13:51,200 --> 01:13:53,320 Speaker 15: that proposal, and no decisions have been made. 1634 01:13:53,360 --> 01:13:55,040 Speaker 2: Do you have any idea when this is actually gonna 1635 01:13:55,040 --> 01:13:57,040 Speaker 2: happen because you're sure you're fast running out of time. 1636 01:13:57,720 --> 01:14:00,000 Speaker 15: Oh, we're not running out of time. Those decisions will 1637 01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:00,479 Speaker 15: be made. 1638 01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:00,880 Speaker 3: In due course. 1639 01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:04,040 Speaker 2: What this term? Yes? This year? 1640 01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:05,280 Speaker 3: Yes? 1641 01:14:05,880 --> 01:14:07,240 Speaker 2: Is it in this budget. 1642 01:14:10,320 --> 01:14:10,479 Speaker 11: Now? 1643 01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:10,880 Speaker 12: Yeah? 1644 01:14:10,920 --> 01:14:14,120 Speaker 15: Yeah, we're getting into that game again. Look that there 1645 01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:16,120 Speaker 15: will be announcements made about it this year here though. 1646 01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:18,519 Speaker 2: Oh cool? Hey did you get an invitation to Adrian 1647 01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:20,040 Speaker 2: was leaving party? 1648 01:14:20,560 --> 01:14:20,640 Speaker 6: No? 1649 01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:22,040 Speaker 15: I didn't know what I expect to. 1650 01:14:22,479 --> 01:14:24,720 Speaker 2: Has there been a cover up over his resignation. 1651 01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:29,680 Speaker 15: No, I wouldn't describe it that way. He made a 1652 01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:35,880 Speaker 15: decision to resign that was communicated publicly. Ultimately, his employment 1653 01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:39,440 Speaker 15: relationship is with the Reserve Bank Board and so for 1654 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:42,479 Speaker 15: it's for them to decide what it's appropriate to communicate 1655 01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:42,880 Speaker 15: about that. 1656 01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:48,200 Speaker 2: Okay, So you're not actively withholding the reasons for him residing, 1657 01:14:48,240 --> 01:14:50,479 Speaker 2: like you don't know and you're not telling us that's 1658 01:14:50,479 --> 01:14:51,040 Speaker 2: not happening. 1659 01:14:52,040 --> 01:14:56,479 Speaker 15: Yeah, that's right from my perspective, I was informed that 1660 01:14:56,600 --> 01:14:58,280 Speaker 15: he had made the decision to resign. 1661 01:14:58,320 --> 01:15:01,120 Speaker 2: O you and what plan next time Neil comes in? 1662 01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:03,599 Speaker 2: Neil quickly from why Cuttle University comes in to talk 1663 01:15:03,640 --> 01:15:05,360 Speaker 2: to you about money for the medical school? Can you 1664 01:15:05,400 --> 01:15:07,639 Speaker 2: ask him, tell him to put his hat on as 1665 01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:09,280 Speaker 2: the chair of the Reserve Bank and ask him why 1666 01:15:09,360 --> 01:15:12,560 Speaker 2: Adrian left? And then I can ask you. 1667 01:15:11,600 --> 01:15:15,160 Speaker 15: You know, I think anyone speculating on that where whether 1668 01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:18,080 Speaker 15: it's Nil or in any the Treasury Secretary or me 1669 01:15:18,240 --> 01:15:21,920 Speaker 15: or anyone else, we might have our interpretation. But ultimately 1670 01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:25,519 Speaker 15: the person who knows his reasons for himself is Adrian 1671 01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:31,240 Speaker 15: and he hesitates, well, I think that how he articulated 1672 01:15:31,280 --> 01:15:34,000 Speaker 15: that is for him, and the fact that he has 1673 01:15:34,160 --> 01:15:37,479 Speaker 15: chosen not to go into detail about that makes it 1674 01:15:37,520 --> 01:15:39,720 Speaker 15: pretty challenging for any of us to put words in 1675 01:15:39,760 --> 01:15:44,200 Speaker 15: his mouth why, because we would be speculating and his 1676 01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:46,880 Speaker 15: reasons for his resignation are ultimately. 1677 01:15:46,640 --> 01:15:48,840 Speaker 2: Seriously telling Menifo that what he did was he was like, 1678 01:15:49,040 --> 01:15:51,880 Speaker 2: I quit and he didn't say why. He didn't give 1679 01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:53,040 Speaker 2: you guys any reason why. 1680 01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:57,920 Speaker 15: Well, I anticipate, well, I know that there were discussions 1681 01:15:57,960 --> 01:16:01,360 Speaker 15: with the Reserve Bank Board about that, but as of seed, 1682 01:16:01,479 --> 01:16:04,320 Speaker 15: that is for the Reserve Bank bored to communicate about. 1683 01:16:04,439 --> 01:16:05,040 Speaker 15: It's not for me. 1684 01:16:05,520 --> 01:16:07,760 Speaker 2: Okay, Hey, Nicola, thank you very much, really appreciate it 1685 01:16:07,880 --> 01:16:11,200 Speaker 2: very much, looking forward to the information you've given out. 1686 01:16:11,240 --> 01:16:14,760 Speaker 2: Thomas Coglan. That's Nichola Willis, Finance Minister, seventeen past six. 1687 01:16:15,840 --> 01:16:19,160 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duper c Allen Drive Full Show podcast 1688 01:16:19,240 --> 01:16:22,000 Speaker 1: on my Heart Radio empowered by news dog ZEPPI. 1689 01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:25,759 Speaker 2: Hey, we've said goodbye to summer, right, but that doesn't 1690 01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:27,800 Speaker 2: mean we also have to say goodbye to the refreshing 1691 01:16:27,800 --> 01:16:31,080 Speaker 2: flavors that summer brings. Because Bunderberg, the legendary brewers of 1692 01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:33,479 Speaker 2: the iconic Bunderberg ginger beer, are coming out with a 1693 01:16:33,479 --> 01:16:36,640 Speaker 2: brand new low sugar range. It's called Refreshingly LIGHTD and 1694 01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:39,000 Speaker 2: it's a sparkling drink range. And it comes in three 1695 01:16:39,080 --> 01:16:42,960 Speaker 2: flavor combos which sounds so delicious, Raspberry and pomegranate, apple 1696 01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:45,280 Speaker 2: and lye cheek, lemon and watermelon. And these things are 1697 01:16:45,320 --> 01:16:48,759 Speaker 2: low on sugar, got no artificial sweeteners, flavors or colors 1698 01:16:48,880 --> 01:16:51,160 Speaker 2: made from real fruit, and they've only got twenty calories 1699 01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:53,439 Speaker 2: per can, which is almost nothing, right. I mean, what's 1700 01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:56,080 Speaker 2: interesting also is that this new range has been craft 1701 01:16:56,080 --> 01:16:58,760 Speaker 2: brewed for three days now. That sounds like a long time, 1702 01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:01,880 Speaker 2: but it actually isn't. BEEAs is what you pretty much 1703 01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:04,120 Speaker 2: need to lock in all those incredible flavors, and you 1704 01:17:04,160 --> 01:17:07,120 Speaker 2: would not expect anything lesse from Bunderberg. They care about 1705 01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:09,599 Speaker 2: making stuff that tastes good. It's as simple as that. 1706 01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:13,240 Speaker 2: So to taste Bunderberg's new Refreshingly Light Sparkling Drink range, 1707 01:17:13,479 --> 01:17:15,840 Speaker 2: head along to most major supermarkets. 1708 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,519 Speaker 3: Now together do for Sea Ellen. 1709 01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:18,240 Speaker 1: Here. 1710 01:17:18,280 --> 01:17:20,000 Speaker 2: That tells you what kind of a guy Adrian orwas 1711 01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:21,800 Speaker 2: quits without notice and has the gall to come back 1712 01:17:21,840 --> 01:17:23,760 Speaker 2: for a leaving party. I'll tell you what. Okay, The 1713 01:17:23,800 --> 01:17:25,920 Speaker 2: Taxpayers Union put out a press release about it today, 1714 01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:27,640 Speaker 2: which is why I was asking Nicola if there was 1715 01:17:27,640 --> 01:17:29,519 Speaker 2: a cover up, because they said what sticks in the 1716 01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:32,599 Speaker 2: throat is the lack of total lack of transparency around 1717 01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:35,639 Speaker 2: Adrian Or's exit. He bloated the Reserve Bank from two 1718 01:17:35,680 --> 01:17:37,840 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty five to six hundred and sixty staff. 1719 01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:40,880 Speaker 2: He let inflation run wild. He torched eleven billion dollars 1720 01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:43,840 Speaker 2: through his reckless money sprinting money printing spree, which is 1721 01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:46,759 Speaker 2: enough to build four duned in hospitals. His extreme capital 1722 01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:50,040 Speaker 2: rules spike mortgage costs, adding nearly four thousand dollars a 1723 01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:52,320 Speaker 2: year to a one million dollar home loan. And when 1724 01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:56,040 Speaker 2: inflationally fine inflation finally fell, he snoozed through the signal. 1725 01:17:56,479 --> 01:17:58,439 Speaker 2: Now he's slipped back out out the back door with 1726 01:17:58,439 --> 01:18:01,040 Speaker 2: a tray of sausage rolls and no account ability. Nicola 1727 01:18:01,040 --> 01:18:03,080 Speaker 2: will listen to the Reserve Bank need to come clean. Key, 1728 01:18:03,080 --> 01:18:05,600 Speaker 2: weis deserve better than muffins and a cover up. Do 1729 01:18:05,640 --> 01:18:08,360 Speaker 2: you know what I'm I'm fast coming to the conclusion 1730 01:18:08,400 --> 01:18:11,639 Speaker 2: that one of two things happened. Either Adrian really did 1731 01:18:11,680 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 2: just pack a tant tantrum and send one of those 1732 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:16,519 Speaker 2: emails that Nicola doesn't respond to just to I quit 1733 01:18:16,840 --> 01:18:19,080 Speaker 2: and left, and they don't know why he quit, or 1734 01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:21,320 Speaker 2: he did tell them why he quit, but they just 1735 01:18:21,320 --> 01:18:23,040 Speaker 2: don't want to talk about it because it's embarrassing. And 1736 01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:24,479 Speaker 2: I don't know which of the two it is. So 1737 01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:26,640 Speaker 2: next time Neil Quickly's on the show, will ask him. 1738 01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:29,000 Speaker 2: Ay he's a Reserve Bank chair by the way, six 1739 01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:31,880 Speaker 2: twenty one. Now, let's get an update from the markets today. 1740 01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:35,800 Speaker 2: Greg Smith from Devin Funds is with us. Hey Greg, Hey, Hey, good, 1741 01:18:36,160 --> 01:18:37,080 Speaker 2: it's very good to talk to you. 1742 01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:37,200 Speaker 5: Now. 1743 01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:38,840 Speaker 2: The key we market had a good session. It's up 1744 01:18:38,920 --> 01:18:41,120 Speaker 2: zero point eight percent. What's been driving this optimism? 1745 01:18:41,760 --> 01:18:43,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, that's what I mean, sort of running on the 1746 01:18:43,080 --> 01:18:45,280 Speaker 8: back of the optimism in the US. I mean what 1747 01:18:45,360 --> 01:18:47,080 Speaker 8: trade ward, the S and pop five under, I mean 1748 01:18:47,080 --> 01:18:51,439 Speaker 8: that's clawed back or its losses since Liberation Day and 1749 01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:52,720 Speaker 8: it's actually been on a bit of a bit of 1750 01:18:52,760 --> 01:18:55,160 Speaker 8: a record run. So I suppose you invests is a 1751 01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:58,439 Speaker 8: sort of pricing in. Yeah, the worst case scenario that 1752 01:18:58,479 --> 01:19:00,559 Speaker 8: you know, when you produce that border a few weeks 1753 01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:03,320 Speaker 8: back not not happening. So you know, we've got hundreds 1754 01:19:03,360 --> 01:19:06,599 Speaker 8: of deals evidently coming in the next sort of two months, 1755 01:19:06,640 --> 01:19:09,880 Speaker 8: and I suppose what we're really waiting on is some 1756 01:19:09,920 --> 01:19:12,280 Speaker 8: sort of meeting of the minds between China and the US. 1757 01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:14,400 Speaker 8: And yeah, it still seems to be a bit of 1758 01:19:14,439 --> 01:19:17,599 Speaker 8: cat and mouse. You know, there's been conciliatory tones, there's 1759 01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:21,200 Speaker 8: been exemptions. China sit on Friday, that's sort of ready 1760 01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:24,160 Speaker 8: for talks. Trump said over the weekend that he's not 1761 01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:26,320 Speaker 8: going to speak to Beijing this week. So I think 1762 01:19:26,360 --> 01:19:28,080 Speaker 8: that's what investors sort of looking for that you know, 1763 01:19:28,160 --> 01:19:32,040 Speaker 8: that's going to be better than fed from that regard. 1764 01:19:32,560 --> 01:19:34,559 Speaker 8: So yeah, the US market's sort of pushing high. I mean, 1765 01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:37,360 Speaker 8: the New Zealand market didn't fall as most as much 1766 01:19:37,400 --> 01:19:39,760 Speaker 8: as most anyway, but it's yes, sort of sort of 1767 01:19:39,760 --> 01:19:43,080 Speaker 8: clawing things back, as you mean, zero point eight percent. 1768 01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:44,759 Speaker 5: We've got Fish and Parkle. 1769 01:19:44,800 --> 01:19:47,640 Speaker 8: We know one of our exporters, I suppose most in 1770 01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:49,559 Speaker 8: the frame with respect to terrorists, but that's sort of 1771 01:19:49,560 --> 01:19:54,320 Speaker 8: in compliance of this agreement between US, Canada and Mexico 1772 01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:57,559 Speaker 8: and has a lot of its I suppose operations in Mexico, 1773 01:19:57,600 --> 01:20:00,280 Speaker 8: which supplies the US. And then we've got Mainfraid as well, 1774 01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:02,000 Speaker 8: and that's been sort of wearing a bit of toil 1775 01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:04,479 Speaker 8: from the tariff side of things. But yeah, seventy five 1776 01:20:04,479 --> 01:20:07,000 Speaker 8: percent of earning of earnings come from Australia New Zealand, 1777 01:20:07,040 --> 01:20:08,519 Speaker 8: so use is a bit of relevant. I mean, it's 1778 01:20:08,520 --> 01:20:10,920 Speaker 8: only around about eight percent of earnings. So that had 1779 01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:13,599 Speaker 8: a great down Friday, up twelve percent on its training update. 1780 01:20:14,439 --> 01:20:17,559 Speaker 8: It's up again today as well, by two point four percent. 1781 01:20:18,000 --> 01:20:20,320 Speaker 2: What do you make of Trump and there's tariffs on 1782 01:20:20,360 --> 01:20:22,160 Speaker 2: foreign made movies? What impact will that have? 1783 01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:23,320 Speaker 3: Well? 1784 01:20:23,360 --> 01:20:25,720 Speaker 8: I had the whole tariff war has been a bit 1785 01:20:25,760 --> 01:20:27,439 Speaker 8: of a soap opera, hasn't it. I Mean that's been 1786 01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:30,200 Speaker 8: sort of lurching from one drama to another, and now 1787 01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:33,200 Speaker 8: it actually has Hollywood. So I've got potentially one hundred 1788 01:20:33,200 --> 01:20:36,040 Speaker 8: percent tariff on movies not made in America. He says 1789 01:20:36,080 --> 01:20:39,000 Speaker 8: he wants to stop the slow death of Hollywood. I 1790 01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:41,920 Speaker 8: suppose as usual, and as we've become accustomed to with 1791 01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:44,479 Speaker 8: Trump and all things on the trade front, been quite 1792 01:20:44,600 --> 01:20:46,519 Speaker 8: light on detail. So is it going to apply to 1793 01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:49,160 Speaker 8: just movie showing in cinemas? Is it going to apply 1794 01:20:49,240 --> 01:20:52,000 Speaker 8: to things on streaming as well? But yeah, it's certainly 1795 01:20:52,040 --> 01:20:54,280 Speaker 8: potentially going to have an impact. Obviously, Chris like someone 1796 01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:56,559 Speaker 8: was speaking today. But you know, Lord of the rings 1797 01:20:56,560 --> 01:20:59,479 Speaker 8: made in New Zealand or movies made in Australia, you know, 1798 01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:03,200 Speaker 8: dark and be potentially caught. So yeah, I'm not going 1799 01:21:03,240 --> 01:21:05,439 Speaker 8: to be great for sort of the film industries abroad. 1800 01:21:05,479 --> 01:21:07,960 Speaker 8: So yeah, pretty pretty amazing. We've sort of no stone 1801 01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:10,840 Speaker 8: untouched with respect to the Tower Forum. We have to 1802 01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:13,720 Speaker 8: sort of see where this all goes. But yeah, I 1803 01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:16,840 Speaker 8: just go as suppose to the soaproper that has been 1804 01:21:17,040 --> 01:21:19,080 Speaker 8: the trade war over the past five weeks or so. 1805 01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:20,760 Speaker 2: Lord, it will be a soaproper if it didn't cost 1806 01:21:20,800 --> 01:21:22,720 Speaker 2: us so much. Greg, Thank you so much, appreciated you 1807 01:21:22,720 --> 01:21:24,519 Speaker 2: awsome at Gregsmith of Devon Funds. 1808 01:21:25,160 --> 01:21:25,320 Speaker 8: Right. 1809 01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:27,519 Speaker 2: One News has done the story in eric I'll run 1810 01:21:27,520 --> 01:21:29,080 Speaker 2: you through it shortly twenty four past six. 1811 01:21:30,040 --> 01:21:33,120 Speaker 3: If it's to do with money, it matters to you. 1812 01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:38,240 Speaker 1: The Business Hour with header Dupericllen and theirs, Insurance and investments, 1813 01:21:38,479 --> 01:21:41,520 Speaker 1: grew your wealth, Protect your future news dogs. 1814 01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:44,800 Speaker 2: V Right here we go. One news story on Erica 1815 01:21:44,840 --> 01:21:47,400 Speaker 2: Stanford with the Gmail. So what she's been doing is 1816 01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:50,679 Speaker 2: she's been sending herself some ministerial documents, right, and they're 1817 01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:55,680 Speaker 2: like and in air quotes. Worst example of it is 1818 01:21:55,720 --> 01:21:58,479 Speaker 2: some budget documents from last year, so it's not even 1819 01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:00,280 Speaker 2: of this year story. It's the last year Tory and 1820 01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:01,960 Speaker 2: what it was was the visa changes they were going 1821 01:22:02,000 --> 01:22:04,519 Speaker 2: to make. So it's hardly like, you know, like state 1822 01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:08,479 Speaker 2: secret stuff. Technically is a secret involving the state, but 1823 01:22:08,520 --> 01:22:10,679 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, like, it's not like take 1824 01:22:10,720 --> 01:22:12,120 Speaker 2: you out and put you up against the wall and 1825 01:22:12,120 --> 01:22:13,920 Speaker 2: give you the firing squad over this one, is it? 1826 01:22:14,120 --> 01:22:16,160 Speaker 2: And yes, it has come out through the Official Information 1827 01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:19,120 Speaker 2: Act requests as we suggested it might have been. And 1828 01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:20,920 Speaker 2: what she's also been doing is she's been using her 1829 01:22:20,960 --> 01:22:23,280 Speaker 2: Gmail account and then she's been putting her business signature 1830 01:22:23,320 --> 01:22:25,040 Speaker 2: on it, you know, like Eric Stanford, Minister for blah 1831 01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:27,679 Speaker 2: blah blah whatever. It's the breach of the Cabinet Manual 1832 01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:29,920 Speaker 2: that's the problem here, which means that the g and 1833 01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:31,840 Speaker 2: it's because the gmails are more easily hacked. And she 1834 01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:35,120 Speaker 2: said this, she sometimes forwards emails to herself so she 1835 01:22:35,160 --> 01:22:38,680 Speaker 2: can print briefings while working away from Parliament, but Parliamentary 1836 01:22:38,680 --> 01:22:42,519 Speaker 2: Service has now installed her Electorate Office printer on the 1837 01:22:42,520 --> 01:22:46,599 Speaker 2: Parliamentary network. I mean, have you ever heard of anything 1838 01:22:46,600 --> 01:22:48,680 Speaker 2: more third world than that. We've had a minister have 1839 01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:52,200 Speaker 2: to use Gmail because we haven't actually installed the printer 1840 01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:56,000 Speaker 2: on the Parliamentary network. Nobody got bothered doing that. So anyway, 1841 01:22:56,040 --> 01:22:58,599 Speaker 2: at least that's fixed now. West Pack's with us after 1842 01:22:58,640 --> 01:23:03,720 Speaker 2: the news, crunching. 1843 01:23:03,360 --> 01:23:06,880 Speaker 1: The numbers and getting the results.

This one's 1853 01:23:41,280 --> 01:23:43,360 Speaker 2: spent something like, goodness me, it felt like six months 1854 01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:46,719 Speaker 2: or something sitting in somewhere that wasn't New Zealand getting 1855 01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:49,680 Speaker 2: fitted out, maybe Singapore or something. Anyway, who cares. It's 1856 01:23:49,720 --> 01:23:52,280 Speaker 2: come back and it's good to go.

Now west 1880 01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:52,560 Speaker 2: pax a net profit has jumped ten percent for the 1881 01:24:52,600 --> 01:24:54,680 Speaker 2: first half of the year for the company's new New 1882 01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:57,639 Speaker 2: Zealand arm. The interest rates have been coming down, obviously, 1883 01:24:57,720 --> 01:25:00,280 Speaker 2: but the bank's margins on interest rates have gone up lightly, 1884 01:25:00,600 --> 01:25:03,040 Speaker 2: up zero point one six percent compared to the same 1885 01:25:03,120 --> 01:25:06,599 Speaker 2: period last year. In Australia the margins actually declined. Westpac 1886 01:25:06,680 --> 01:25:10,360 Speaker 2: CEO is Katherine mcgrahey. Catherine Hi here, That great to 1887 01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:11,840 Speaker 2: be back, Hey, thank you very much. 1888 01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:12,200 Speaker 5: For your time. 1889 01:25:12,240 --> 01:25:13,479 Speaker 2: What's driving your profit up? 1890 01:25:15,240 --> 01:25:18,800 Speaker 10: So if you look at it versus the previous period, yes, 1891 01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:21,519 Speaker 10: it has gone up about ten percent in that period 1892 01:25:21,560 --> 01:25:23,479 Speaker 10: of time, But if you look at it over the 1893 01:25:23,640 --> 01:25:26,800 Speaker 10: past six months, our net profit has actually gone down 1894 01:25:26,920 --> 01:25:30,800 Speaker 10: by nine percent and that's reflarching. Revenues have been flat, 1895 01:25:30,960 --> 01:25:35,040 Speaker 10: particularly with strong competition in the deposit market. Our costs 1896 01:25:35,080 --> 01:25:37,639 Speaker 10: have gone up and impairment has gone up as well. 1897 01:25:38,080 --> 01:25:40,360 Speaker 2: And so what's going on here with the margins rising 1898 01:25:40,400 --> 01:25:42,640 Speaker 2: in New Zealand but going down in Australia. Why is that. 1899 01:25:44,640 --> 01:25:44,680 Speaker 11: So? 1900 01:25:44,840 --> 01:25:47,360 Speaker 10: One is it's important to compare apples with apples. The 1901 01:25:47,479 --> 01:25:51,000 Speaker 10: Australian business has a big international component to it, which 1902 01:25:51,040 --> 01:25:53,360 Speaker 10: we don't have here. And so if I look at 1903 01:25:53,479 --> 01:25:56,200 Speaker 10: the relevant parts of the Australian business to New Zealand, 1904 01:25:56,600 --> 01:25:59,439 Speaker 10: one our net interest margin is lower and then the 1905 01:25:59,520 --> 01:26:02,080 Speaker 10: reason that have edged up about three points over the 1906 01:26:02,160 --> 01:26:06,120 Speaker 10: past sax months, we've seen some better funding decisions have 1907 01:26:06,240 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 10: been taken, which has been really helpful. 1908 01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:11,400 Speaker 2: Interested in the faith that you've called out the social 1909 01:26:11,439 --> 01:26:15,160 Speaker 2: media companies on scams, what's what's got you upset there? 1910 01:26:17,200 --> 01:26:18,800 Speaker 10: One of the things I'd love to see them do 1911 01:26:19,240 --> 01:26:22,400 Speaker 10: is to make sure that when they take advertising dollars 1912 01:26:22,520 --> 01:26:26,479 Speaker 10: for financial services ads, that they check that those ads 1913 01:26:26,680 --> 01:26:30,400 Speaker 10: are for genuine financial services providers. We know that investment 1914 01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:32,679 Speaker 10: scams are the ones that hurt keep mees the most 1915 01:26:32,800 --> 01:26:35,000 Speaker 10: for an amount of money, and so we'd love them 1916 01:26:35,080 --> 01:26:38,679 Speaker 10: to use their great technology to verify that they're taking 1917 01:26:38,760 --> 01:26:42,040 Speaker 10: money from people who are actually financial services organizations. 1918 01:26:42,080 --> 01:26:44,080 Speaker 2: They're under no obligation to do that, are they. 1919 01:26:45,960 --> 01:26:46,000 Speaker 20: No? 1920 01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:48,120 Speaker 10: But if I can go through a piece of break 1921 01:26:48,200 --> 01:26:50,639 Speaker 10: to try and identify that a payment that you intend 1922 01:26:50,800 --> 01:26:52,960 Speaker 10: to make isn't really one that you want to make, 1923 01:26:53,040 --> 01:26:55,559 Speaker 10: which is what we're doing in the New Zealand Banking industry. 1924 01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:57,960 Speaker 10: I don't think it's a hard ass to say that 1925 01:26:58,520 --> 01:27:01,479 Speaker 10: media platforms should make sure that they verify that who 1926 01:27:01,520 --> 01:27:05,799 Speaker 10: they're taking money from are advertising actually for financial services, 1927 01:27:05,920 --> 01:27:06,679 Speaker 10: not fake ads. 1928 01:27:07,000 --> 01:27:10,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, you, I mean I would say that that's because 1929 01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:12,599 Speaker 2: you've been pressured into it publicly, right, you actually care 1930 01:27:12,680 --> 01:27:15,200 Speaker 2: about what your customers think. They don't care, they have 1931 01:27:15,520 --> 01:27:18,040 Speaker 2: and they have no real there's no real impetus, right that. 1932 01:27:18,200 --> 01:27:21,040 Speaker 2: There's what I mean, what does it matter if we 1933 01:27:21,160 --> 01:27:22,960 Speaker 2: think badly of them? We keep on using them, right, 1934 01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:25,640 Speaker 2: So there's nothing to there's nothing really to pressure them 1935 01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:26,680 Speaker 2: into this position, is there. 1936 01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:30,439 Speaker 10: Well, I think the government is starting to do a 1937 01:27:30,479 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 10: good job at putting that pressure on and it's been 1938 01:27:33,600 --> 01:27:35,880 Speaker 10: really good to see that one of those platforms has 1939 01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:40,040 Speaker 10: done that. And so our witch reagment is that Google 1940 01:27:40,160 --> 01:27:42,640 Speaker 10: has done that and they are verifying all ads. We 1941 01:27:42,720 --> 01:27:45,480 Speaker 10: would think that was great if all of those technology 1942 01:27:45,520 --> 01:27:50,519 Speaker 10: platforms demonstrate the same social responsibility to help people stop 1943 01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:51,280 Speaker 10: being scammed. 1944 01:27:51,439 --> 01:27:53,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, totally, I agree with you. Now, listen, when are 1945 01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:55,720 Speaker 2: you guys going to be paying that penalty post the 1946 01:27:55,800 --> 01:27:56,320 Speaker 2: court case? 1947 01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:00,680 Speaker 10: So that will be in the process. Now that's from 1948 01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:04,799 Speaker 10: a very historic issue, not good when we offered something 1949 01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:06,920 Speaker 10: and we couldn't follow through with it in terms of 1950 01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:10,040 Speaker 10: our system. But we've worked very closely with the Financial 1951 01:28:10,080 --> 01:28:13,599 Speaker 10: Markets Authority. All of those customers have had any money 1952 01:28:13,800 --> 01:28:16,760 Speaker 10: paid back, and it's not a forward looking issue from 1953 01:28:16,800 --> 01:28:17,440 Speaker 10: our perspective. 1954 01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:19,679 Speaker 2: Cool Catherine, Thank you so much for your time. Appreciated. 1955 01:28:19,760 --> 01:28:24,280 Speaker 2: Katherine mcgras's CEO of Westpac nineteen away from seven. Okay, 1956 01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:26,559 Speaker 2: So you know how I feel about the public sector, 1957 01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:28,400 Speaker 2: and I feel like a lot of kiwis a lot 1958 01:28:28,439 --> 01:28:31,680 Speaker 2: of taxpayers in New Zealand, around the Western world, in 1959 01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:33,960 Speaker 2: the English speaking world, we all get in democracies. We 1960 01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:35,719 Speaker 2: all feel like this about the public sector. The public 1961 01:28:35,760 --> 01:28:38,920 Speaker 2: spector is just giant sponge for your money and then 1962 01:28:38,960 --> 01:28:41,519 Speaker 2: it just it just kind of fritzes it away and 1963 01:28:41,680 --> 01:28:45,880 Speaker 2: it's just frustrating, right, So, knowing that that's how we feel. 1964 01:28:46,160 --> 01:28:49,160 Speaker 2: I was watching Brian Roach yesterday, he's the new public 1965 01:28:49,200 --> 01:28:50,920 Speaker 2: sector boss, by the way. I was watching him yesterday 1966 01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:52,479 Speaker 2: on Q and A, and I took some heart from 1967 01:28:52,560 --> 01:28:54,760 Speaker 2: it because he says he wants the public sector to 1968 01:28:54,880 --> 01:28:58,559 Speaker 2: provide better value for money for taxpayers, and everybody says that, right, 1969 01:28:58,600 --> 01:29:01,200 Speaker 2: But what he wants to tax the public sector to 1970 01:29:01,280 --> 01:29:05,240 Speaker 2: do is that he wants the bosses to be prepared 1971 01:29:05,280 --> 01:29:07,640 Speaker 2: to take more risks because they play things safe all 1972 01:29:07,640 --> 01:29:09,600 Speaker 2: the time. He wants them to take more risks like 1973 01:29:09,640 --> 01:29:10,719 Speaker 2: they do in the private sector. 1974 01:29:10,840 --> 01:29:13,480 Speaker 13: I would like, you know, the whole concept of curiosity 1975 01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:16,000 Speaker 13: to become an article of faith in the new salem 1976 01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:19,200 Speaker 13: of public service. We should always be questioning why we 1977 01:29:19,320 --> 01:29:21,280 Speaker 13: do it and whether we could do it better. That's 1978 01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:23,760 Speaker 13: what the private sector does. I can't see why the 1979 01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:25,200 Speaker 13: public sector can't adopt that. 1980 01:29:25,640 --> 01:29:25,760 Speaker 3: Right. 1981 01:29:25,840 --> 01:29:27,439 Speaker 2: If the private sector can do it, then the public 1982 01:29:27,479 --> 01:29:30,080 Speaker 2: sector should do it. How much like how many times 1983 01:29:30,120 --> 01:29:32,479 Speaker 2: have you thought that yourself if you were just doing 1984 01:29:32,560 --> 01:29:34,120 Speaker 2: if there was a private company who was doing this, 1985 01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:35,880 Speaker 2: they would do a much better job than you people 1986 01:29:35,960 --> 01:29:37,960 Speaker 2: sitting there on your fat salaries and not worrying about 1987 01:29:37,960 --> 01:29:38,479 Speaker 2: the outcomes. 1988 01:29:38,560 --> 01:29:38,680 Speaker 3: Right. 1989 01:29:39,040 --> 01:29:41,479 Speaker 2: So I was so heartened to hear him say that, 1990 01:29:42,040 --> 01:29:45,200 Speaker 2: Obviously saying it and then getting it done at two 1991 01:29:45,240 --> 01:29:46,880 Speaker 2: different things. Because he can say it and that can 1992 01:29:46,920 --> 01:29:49,000 Speaker 2: be his intent, but he is still the boss of 1993 01:29:49,200 --> 01:29:52,960 Speaker 2: sixty thousand odd core public sector workers, and you still 1994 01:29:53,040 --> 01:29:55,280 Speaker 2: have to change. This is a mindset that has been 1995 01:29:55,479 --> 01:30:00,080 Speaker 2: ingrained in them for decades and decades and decades, and 1996 01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:02,080 Speaker 2: he has to somehow turn that around. So I'm going 1997 01:30:02,120 --> 01:30:05,240 Speaker 2: to temper my expectations. But at least credit to him 1998 01:30:05,280 --> 01:30:07,960 Speaker 2: for saying it out loud, because that's the first step. 1999 01:30:08,040 --> 01:30:08,120 Speaker 1: Right. 2000 01:30:08,160 --> 01:30:10,560 Speaker 2: You have to acknowledge the problem, which he's done. You 2001 01:30:10,680 --> 01:30:12,960 Speaker 2: have to want to change it, which he's done. Now 2002 01:30:13,040 --> 01:30:14,439 Speaker 2: you just have to change it. So just you know, 2003 01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:16,880 Speaker 2: like the hardest bit left, but at least we're headed 2004 01:30:16,920 --> 01:30:18,679 Speaker 2: in the right direction. Seventeen away from seven. 2005 01:30:18,880 --> 01:30:23,000 Speaker 1: Whether it's macro microbe or just plain economics, it's all 2006 01:30:23,120 --> 01:30:26,639 Speaker 1: on the Business Hour with Heather Duplicy Ellen and Mare's 2007 01:30:26,800 --> 01:30:30,360 Speaker 1: Insurance and Investments, Grow your wealth, Protect your future. 2008 01:30:30,520 --> 01:30:31,439 Speaker 3: Please talks at me. 2009 01:30:32,320 --> 01:30:36,160 Speaker 2: Gavin Gray are UK correspondents with me? Now, Hey Gavin, Hi, 2010 01:30:36,720 --> 01:30:39,240 Speaker 2: what do we know about this terrorism plot that's been foiled? 2011 01:30:40,479 --> 01:30:44,479 Speaker 9: Yeah, it looks like two different plots because the eight 2012 01:30:44,600 --> 01:30:47,760 Speaker 9: who are arrested are being told that the one group 2013 01:30:47,840 --> 01:30:52,000 Speaker 9: of five arrested around England, another group of three around London, 2014 01:30:52,600 --> 01:30:56,400 Speaker 9: two separate police investigations, they're saying. But what we do 2015 01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:59,240 Speaker 9: know is that seven of the age arrested are Iranian. 2016 01:30:59,320 --> 01:31:02,360 Speaker 9: There's still being question they've been held overnight, they've been 2017 01:31:02,439 --> 01:31:07,080 Speaker 9: questioned by counter terrorism investigators and if its arrests under 2018 01:31:07,360 --> 01:31:11,240 Speaker 9: the counter Terrorism Command, then they could spend a fortnight 2019 01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:14,560 Speaker 9: before either being released or charged with something. So the 2020 01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:17,479 Speaker 9: police have got plenty of time on this. What's been 2021 01:31:18,040 --> 01:31:21,080 Speaker 9: really interesting though about the arrests, apart from the fact 2022 01:31:21,120 --> 01:31:24,280 Speaker 9: that they are Iranian and we do know that. Just 2023 01:31:24,360 --> 01:31:26,679 Speaker 9: a couple of years back, the head of MI five 2024 01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:30,160 Speaker 9: said that since twenty twenty two they had responded. The 2025 01:31:30,240 --> 01:31:35,400 Speaker 9: security services had responded to twenty plots backed by Iran 2026 01:31:35,760 --> 01:31:40,439 Speaker 9: whiched or presented potentially lethal threats to British citizens, and 2027 01:31:40,640 --> 01:31:43,439 Speaker 9: so the threat from Iran ever growing, and perhaps this 2028 01:31:43,560 --> 01:31:46,679 Speaker 9: highlights this, but the very fact these arrests were in daylight, 2029 01:31:47,080 --> 01:31:49,360 Speaker 9: the very fact that they were done, in one case, 2030 01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:52,320 Speaker 9: in front of lots of people in a big town 2031 01:31:52,479 --> 01:31:55,840 Speaker 9: center busy with shoppers, shows that obviously they thought time 2032 01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:57,800 Speaker 9: is of the essence, that they needed to act now 2033 01:31:57,880 --> 01:32:01,160 Speaker 9: to make the arrests before perhaps those plots were enacted, 2034 01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:02,479 Speaker 9: but we simply don't know yet. 2035 01:32:02,720 --> 01:32:04,040 Speaker 3: We're waiting for more details. 2036 01:32:04,520 --> 01:32:06,360 Speaker 2: Kevin, Can we say this is it for Harry? They're 2037 01:32:06,360 --> 01:32:07,960 Speaker 2: not going to let him back into the royal fold. 2038 01:32:07,960 --> 01:32:10,519 Speaker 2: If he carries on like this, are they No. 2039 01:32:11,000 --> 01:32:13,839 Speaker 9: I think it's a really odd way giving an interview 2040 01:32:13,880 --> 01:32:15,920 Speaker 9: to talk about how disappointed you are that you've lost 2041 01:32:15,960 --> 01:32:18,439 Speaker 9: a court case, only to then start talking about how 2042 01:32:18,479 --> 01:32:20,880 Speaker 9: your father, the King, Charles the third doesn't talk to you, 2043 01:32:21,920 --> 01:32:26,160 Speaker 9: and how frankly you know the royals he would forgive 2044 01:32:26,280 --> 01:32:31,040 Speaker 9: them for various misdemeanors in the past, and is said 2045 01:32:31,080 --> 01:32:35,280 Speaker 9: that the whole security issue that he's been trying to overturn, 2046 01:32:35,360 --> 01:32:40,400 Speaker 9: which is a downturn in his security level when he 2047 01:32:40,520 --> 01:32:43,160 Speaker 9: comes back to the UK, he said, describes that as 2048 01:32:43,200 --> 01:32:46,479 Speaker 9: a security sort of stitch up, an establishment stitch up. 2049 01:32:46,560 --> 01:32:49,320 Speaker 9: So no, this is not the way to endear yourself 2050 01:32:49,400 --> 01:32:52,200 Speaker 9: to the rest of your family, and at times he 2051 01:32:52,280 --> 01:32:55,160 Speaker 9: does seem I don't know, slightly desperate in the interview 2052 01:32:55,400 --> 01:32:58,320 Speaker 9: and certainly very sad either way. I mean, we're all 2053 01:32:58,439 --> 01:33:00,800 Speaker 9: used to family disputes, but play it out in front 2054 01:33:00,840 --> 01:33:04,280 Speaker 9: of the world's media, let alone the world's people is 2055 01:33:04,360 --> 01:33:06,800 Speaker 9: certainly not the best way of going and we are 2056 01:33:06,920 --> 01:33:11,280 Speaker 9: not therefore expecting him at the v Day commemorations taking 2057 01:33:11,360 --> 01:33:13,160 Speaker 9: part today and across this week. 2058 01:33:13,640 --> 01:33:15,240 Speaker 2: I mean, the thing is a lot of people are 2059 01:33:15,280 --> 01:33:17,560 Speaker 2: listening that particular line where he said, I don't know 2060 01:33:17,600 --> 01:33:19,760 Speaker 2: how much longer my father has lived. People are taking 2061 01:33:19,840 --> 01:33:22,000 Speaker 2: us some sort of an insight into the king's diagnose, 2062 01:33:22,160 --> 01:33:22,519 Speaker 2: should we. 2063 01:33:24,439 --> 01:33:28,200 Speaker 9: I think it's very interesting because all the time, whenever 2064 01:33:28,320 --> 01:33:31,240 Speaker 9: I get in touch with any of the media press offices, 2065 01:33:31,280 --> 01:33:33,760 Speaker 9: they're always saying, oh, no, the treatment's going really well, 2066 01:33:33,800 --> 01:33:36,479 Speaker 9: were really pleased, he's responding terribly well, doctors are happy 2067 01:33:36,520 --> 01:33:39,120 Speaker 9: with him, etc. So the fact that his own son 2068 01:33:39,240 --> 01:33:41,040 Speaker 9: is saying I don't know how much longer he's got 2069 01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:44,519 Speaker 9: is a very odd turn of phrase to use if 2070 01:33:45,320 --> 01:33:47,720 Speaker 9: what we're hearing about the doctors is correct. So it 2071 01:33:47,760 --> 01:33:49,720 Speaker 9: does make you doubt that. But at the same time, 2072 01:33:49,720 --> 01:33:51,559 Speaker 9: do you know what, I'm not entirely sure how much 2073 01:33:51,720 --> 01:33:55,240 Speaker 9: Prince Harry knows about his father's health. Evidently, if they're 2074 01:33:55,320 --> 01:33:57,720 Speaker 9: not talking and there are very few members of the 2075 01:33:57,840 --> 01:34:01,040 Speaker 9: all family probably left talking too, Prince Harry probably with 2076 01:34:01,120 --> 01:34:05,479 Speaker 9: the exception of Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, Prince Andrew's children, 2077 01:34:06,320 --> 01:34:08,599 Speaker 9: then I'm not quite sure how much detail he would 2078 01:34:08,680 --> 01:34:10,680 Speaker 9: know about it. But either way, it does perhaps make 2079 01:34:10,720 --> 01:34:13,200 Speaker 9: you think, oh, actually, perhaps this treatment isn't going the way. 2080 01:34:13,240 --> 01:34:15,400 Speaker 2: We thought, yeah, totally, Hey Gavin, thank you very much, 2081 01:34:15,479 --> 01:34:17,519 Speaker 2: Gavin Gray are UK corresponding? Do you know I thought 2082 01:34:17,560 --> 01:34:19,120 Speaker 2: about that? I thought, well, how much do you actually know? 2083 01:34:19,200 --> 01:34:22,040 Speaker 2: But then think about your family. I don't know about you, 2084 01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:25,360 Speaker 2: but literally all of us children know this that if 2085 01:34:25,439 --> 01:34:28,760 Speaker 2: we tell my mum anything and then tell her not 2086 01:34:29,080 --> 01:34:31,360 Speaker 2: to tell the other one, she will tell the other one, 2087 01:34:31,840 --> 01:34:34,320 Speaker 2: because like that's how we can sometimes get messages to 2088 01:34:34,439 --> 01:34:36,280 Speaker 2: each other if we can't be bothered phone each other. 2089 01:34:36,280 --> 01:34:38,160 Speaker 2: I'm just come, bum, don't tell Ian this, but blah 2090 01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:40,800 Speaker 2: blah blah, And then next minute Ian calls me. I'm like, oh, yeah, 2091 01:34:40,920 --> 01:34:42,519 Speaker 2: she did, tod a, she told you. He's like, yeah, 2092 01:34:42,640 --> 01:34:42,960 Speaker 2: she did. 2093 01:34:43,560 --> 01:34:43,600 Speaker 11: So. 2094 01:34:43,920 --> 01:34:47,840 Speaker 2: I just feel like in the Royal family, if King 2095 01:34:47,960 --> 01:34:50,800 Speaker 2: Charles is to her if the diagnosis is terminal, they're 2096 01:34:50,800 --> 01:34:52,280 Speaker 2: gonna be talking about it, aren't they and be like, 2097 01:34:52,320 --> 01:34:54,599 Speaker 2: don't tell anybody. But then somebody will have told Beatrice 2098 01:34:54,920 --> 01:34:57,040 Speaker 2: and Eugenie and then be in triest in. Eugenie will 2099 01:34:57,080 --> 01:34:59,439 Speaker 2: tell Hazz because they're still talking to him, so he 2100 01:34:59,560 --> 01:35:01,720 Speaker 2: will know. He will know more than than they think 2101 01:35:01,800 --> 01:35:04,960 Speaker 2: he knows. Maybe, but God only knows why he said 2102 01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:07,880 Speaker 2: that anyways, because he's dumb. This is the thing. It's 2103 01:35:07,880 --> 01:35:10,960 Speaker 2: a harsh truth. Some people are hot, some people are not, 2104 01:35:11,439 --> 01:35:13,800 Speaker 2: some people are clever, some people are dumb. And it 2105 01:35:13,960 --> 01:35:16,720 Speaker 2: just is the way the cookie crumbles. Now, Wellington, so 2106 01:35:16,880 --> 01:35:18,840 Speaker 2: I meant to tell you about Wellington. So what's happened 2107 01:35:19,680 --> 01:35:22,559 Speaker 2: is if you've been down to Wellington recently, or if 2108 01:35:22,600 --> 01:35:25,320 Speaker 2: you live in Wellington, you'll know this Dixon Street, which 2109 01:35:25,320 --> 01:35:27,639 Speaker 2: is kind of like Courtney Place, carries on Courtney Place, 2110 01:35:27,720 --> 01:35:29,679 Speaker 2: runs away from the Embassy Theater and then it splits 2111 01:35:29,680 --> 01:35:32,240 Speaker 2: into Dixon in Manners right. And Dixon Street used to 2112 01:35:32,280 --> 01:35:34,600 Speaker 2: be fantastic, a little place to go. But then the 2113 01:35:34,640 --> 01:35:37,120 Speaker 2: council decided, Lord, look that's doing too well. Let's ruin it. 2114 01:35:37,400 --> 01:35:39,600 Speaker 2: So they took away all the car parks down all 2115 01:35:39,680 --> 01:35:41,040 Speaker 2: like many of the car pucks, most of the car 2116 01:35:41,120 --> 01:35:43,920 Speaker 2: pucks don't know who, don't really care, and they put 2117 01:35:43,960 --> 01:35:46,439 Speaker 2: all of it like this board walk situation, and with 2118 01:35:46,520 --> 01:35:48,599 Speaker 2: lots of planter boxes and stuff. They were really excited 2119 01:35:48,600 --> 01:35:51,200 Speaker 2: about it. That's awesome, it's really great. Two and a 2120 01:35:51,200 --> 01:35:53,439 Speaker 2: half years ago, look at a trumpeted it. Look at 2121 01:35:53,439 --> 01:35:55,960 Speaker 2: what we've done. It looks modern and doesn't it looks 2122 01:35:55,960 --> 01:35:58,719 Speaker 2: like modern because there are no cars here type thing. Anyway, 2123 01:35:58,960 --> 01:36:01,000 Speaker 2: two and a half years later, we now now find 2124 01:36:01,040 --> 01:36:03,880 Speaker 2: out it's degrading. They're now going to have to find 2125 01:36:03,920 --> 01:36:05,640 Speaker 2: something to replace it with. But the good news is 2126 01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:09,640 Speaker 2: it was never permanent, wasn't it Because everybody thought it 2127 01:36:09,720 --> 01:36:11,600 Speaker 2: was permanent. No, no, says the council. No no, it 2128 01:36:11,680 --> 01:36:13,920 Speaker 2: was temporary. It was only ever temporary, and they were 2129 01:36:13,960 --> 01:36:15,880 Speaker 2: just putting it there until they could do you know, 2130 01:36:16,160 --> 01:36:19,040 Speaker 2: Tory's big upgrade with the Golden Mile. Now, look, we'll 2131 01:36:19,080 --> 01:36:20,640 Speaker 2: have to take them at their word for it that 2132 01:36:20,760 --> 01:36:24,519 Speaker 2: it was only temporary, In which case, why the hell 2133 01:36:24,680 --> 01:36:27,800 Speaker 2: did they spend six hundred thousand dollars on a temporary situation? 2134 01:36:28,360 --> 01:36:31,360 Speaker 2: Why did they do that? Six hundred thousand dollars is 2135 01:36:31,439 --> 01:36:35,000 Speaker 2: a lot of money to be spending on planter boxes 2136 01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:38,280 Speaker 2: and bits of wood to cover up the car parks 2137 01:36:38,720 --> 01:36:40,920 Speaker 2: if you're planning to dig it all up and do 2138 01:36:41,040 --> 01:36:44,040 Speaker 2: it properly at some stage six have they lost leave 2139 01:36:44,120 --> 01:36:47,400 Speaker 2: of their senses? Have they forgotten? Are they so rich 2140 01:36:48,080 --> 01:36:50,800 Speaker 2: at the Wellington City Council they've forgotten what six hundred 2141 01:36:50,800 --> 01:36:53,920 Speaker 2: thousand dollars can buy you. I mean, look, you know, 2142 01:36:54,080 --> 01:36:57,280 Speaker 2: in the outer outer suburbs of Wellington somewhere you can 2143 01:36:57,320 --> 01:37:00,439 Speaker 2: buy a house for six hundred thousand dollars. Parts of 2144 01:37:00,520 --> 01:37:03,600 Speaker 2: rural New Zealand, you can buy a nice house for 2145 01:37:03,680 --> 01:37:06,000 Speaker 2: six hundred thousand dollars. That's a lot of money to 2146 01:37:06,080 --> 01:37:09,640 Speaker 2: be blowing on a temporary Somebody needs to talk to 2147 01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:11,400 Speaker 2: them about this.

In Newtown we have permanent cycle ways with 2156 01:37:39,000 --> 01:37:42,040 Speaker 2: temporary material.

Now, speaking of Wellington, 2159 01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:52,960 Speaker 2: I reckon this is the There are sometimes when you 2160 01:37:53,040 --> 01:37:55,960 Speaker 2: read the newspapers, you read a story and you go, hey, 2161 01:37:56,800 --> 01:38:00,799 Speaker 2: what and that I have one of those today professional 2162 01:38:00,960 --> 01:38:03,639 Speaker 2: escapes conviction for filming colleagues on the toilet. I thought, 2163 01:38:03,680 --> 01:38:06,240 Speaker 2: got to read this. What happened? Thirty seven year old 2164 01:38:06,280 --> 01:38:12,800 Speaker 2: Wellington professional has been busted by his workplace putting the 2165 01:38:12,960 --> 01:38:15,000 Speaker 2: camera in the toilet, right, it was a motion sensor 2166 01:38:15,120 --> 01:38:17,960 Speaker 2: camera and he was filming his colleagues on two separate 2167 01:38:18,000 --> 01:38:21,479 Speaker 2: occasions going to the toot and he's somehow ended up 2168 01:38:21,600 --> 01:38:23,920 Speaker 2: in front of a judge or has got charged obviously 2169 01:38:23,960 --> 01:38:25,880 Speaker 2: because you'd have to be charged this weird thing to do. 2170 01:38:26,400 --> 01:38:29,040 Speaker 2: And he told the judge that the reason he did 2171 01:38:29,120 --> 01:38:32,000 Speaker 2: it was so that he could get fired, and the 2172 01:38:32,120 --> 01:38:35,800 Speaker 2: judge said it seemed implausible, but he accepted the explanation 2173 01:38:35,920 --> 01:38:39,679 Speaker 2: after reading reports by a psychologist and a counselor. Now, look, 2174 01:38:41,479 --> 01:38:44,040 Speaker 2: maybe the psychologist and the counselor knows, and the judge 2175 01:38:44,080 --> 01:38:47,479 Speaker 2: knows something we don't know. Maybe there's some really awesome 2176 01:38:47,520 --> 01:38:51,040 Speaker 2: explanation for why he would do that, But surely there 2177 01:38:51,080 --> 01:38:54,280 Speaker 2: are easier ways to get fired than filming your toilet, 2178 01:38:54,560 --> 01:38:56,640 Speaker 2: your colleagues on the toilet, don't you think? Like I 2179 01:38:56,920 --> 01:38:59,519 Speaker 2: just feel like if I was the judge, if I 2180 01:38:59,880 --> 01:39:03,240 Speaker 2: was the judge, I would have gone byes and here's 2181 01:39:03,280 --> 01:39:06,200 Speaker 2: your sentence as. 2182 01:39:05,439 --> 01:39:08,160 Speaker 19: How hard is it to write a resignation letter?

That's 2185 01:39:11,400 --> 01:39:13,559 Speaker 2: an easier way to get fired again. 2186 01:39:13,600 --> 01:39:15,680 Speaker 19: I feel like the resignation leader should probably be plan A. 2187 01:39:16,960 --> 01:39:19,200 Speaker 19: We're gonna go with Shane Walker Coasty Girl to play 2188 01:39:19,280 --> 01:39:21,080 Speaker 19: us out tonight.
