1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,280 Speaker 1: Barrie your political correspondence with us now, Hay Barry. 2 00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 2: Good afternoon, Heather. I'm really pleased that Drake's coming. I'll 3 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 2: be in the mosh pit right at the. 4 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 1: Front doing your primal scream about Trump. He's American, isn't 5 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:12,639 Speaker 1: he's American? 6 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 2: Yeah? 7 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: Hey, whatb he likes Trump is? What did you make 8 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: of the money when we're going down? 9 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 3: Oh? 10 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 2: Absolutely incredible, wasn't it. 11 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: Oh he's Canadian. I'm sorry, he's Canadian. He sorry, sorry, 12 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: he's carry on with the boat. 13 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 2: What I admired was the chief of the Navy, Rear 14 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 2: Admiral garn Golding, getting up and telling it like it is, 15 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 2: is not trying to guild the lily. And I really 16 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 2: I thought, you know, he'll get a lot of brownie 17 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:45,559 Speaker 2: points for that. Even though a minute's unbelievable how it happened. 18 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,879 Speaker 2: The thinking just gets worse the more you hear about it. 19 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 2: Here's the rare Admiral Golding earlier today. 20 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 4: All vessels in our fleet have a similar functionality for 21 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 4: an autopilot. So if you are doing direct changes and 22 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 4: manually when the ship is an autopilot, it won't adjust. 23 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:09,680 Speaker 4: But if you're doing accelerational deceleration. An autopilot, it will 24 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 4: take those orders and it's just a matter of making 25 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 4: sure that those out in the fleet understand the importance 26 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 4: of being aware whether you're an autopilot or not. But 27 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 4: on the day, muscle memory from the person in control 28 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 4: should have lent over to that panel and checked, well, 29 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 4: there was a person it's on who's in control of 30 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 4: the ship. I'm not naming that person. I'm saying that 31 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 4: the person that was in that position was in control 32 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 4: of a ship. There was another person, because of the location, 33 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 4: being close to the reef, was supervising that individual. 34 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't sound as though the captain was on 35 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 2: the bridge at the time. You'll remember Judith Collins, I 36 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 2: know you're going to be talking to her shortly. She 37 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 2: was full of praise of the ship's captain, Levon Gray. 38 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 2: Today she was a little more conciliatory. 39 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 5: We've had this sort of thing happen in this civilian 40 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 5: world with fairies, which had one just recently about the 41 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 5: same time, with the auto pilots and people not working 42 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 5: out what to do. I think what it says is 43 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 5: that we are not a country that is going to 44 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,839 Speaker 5: shy away from the truth human error is the one 45 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 5: thing you can't guarantee against, but it's certainly one thing 46 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 5: we can all learn from. 47 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 2: Did we need reminding about the fairy going ground? 48 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: He's got a problem with auto part of Hey do so? 49 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: Is Boja here on Tuesday? 50 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 2: Yes, he's having a long lunch here in Auckland on Tuesday. 51 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 2: Essentially he's here to promote his book Unleashed. And I 52 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 2: talked to one of his former teachers at Eton and 53 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 2: they say, they said to me, he's never changed. He's 54 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 2: always been scruffy, always late for meetings, and watching him 55 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 2: being interviewed today, it certainly was the case. But the 56 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 2: teacher also said he was one of the brightest students 57 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: that he had ever taught. In an interview before leaving Britain, 58 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 2: Borrow spoke warmly about Foreign Minister Udinston Peters and likes 59 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: the fact that Donald Trump has been returned to the 60 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 2: White House. 61 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 3: I'm sure Winston will have spotted this is the point 62 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 3: that it's not what he says, is what he does. 63 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 3: When you look at what he actually does from the 64 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 3: point of view of liberal internationalism, which I basically happen 65 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 3: to believe in. He's very very signed and he was 66 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 3: much tougher, you could say, with the Russians over Ukraine 67 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 3: than the previous Democrat administration, and so. 68 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,839 Speaker 2: Putin was in full praise of Trump today. So it'll 69 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 2: be interesting to see what sort of dialogue will take 70 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 2: place when he takes over the office in January. 71 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: Listen really quickly, why is it what's brought on this 72 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: business with Brook van Velden deciding that wealthy workers should 73 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: be able to be fired with that good reason? 74 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 2: Essentially, well, essentially from what I understand, it's because the 75 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 2: employment court is being basically flooded at the moment and 76 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 2: they're trying to free up that. But the point that 77 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: the Prime Minister made in the stand up that he 78 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 2: did in the South Island today was that if somebody 79 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 2: on one hundred and eighty thousand, and I'm sure they 80 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 2: would have negotiated a contract at that sort of money 81 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 2: with their employers so they can put into their contract 82 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 2: stuff that has to be abided by. So it's not 83 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: just a case of somebody one hundred and eighty grand 84 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 2: being shown the door without good reason. 85 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, Barry, thanks very much, really appreciate it.
