1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,520 Speaker 1: International correspondence with ends and eye insurance, peace of mind 2 00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: for New Zealand business. Oliver Peterson is with us right now. Hello, Oli, 3 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:11,799 Speaker 1: get ahead. So what do you make of Elbow's tribute 4 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 1: to Biden. 5 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 2: Well, you know, they see themselves probably as one and 6 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,599 Speaker 2: the same, to be perfectly honest. So they've basically both 7 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 2: dedicated their entire lives to public service. And he says, 8 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 2: the Prime Minister of Australia that he's got an extraordinary 9 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 2: record because of UCAST, the Inflation Reduction Act, and he 10 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,479 Speaker 2: says the stability in the Indo Pacific, the support of 11 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 2: Ukraine against the Russian invasion, and he makes this really 12 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 2: interesting point. If Albanezi wins the federal election here in 13 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 2: Australia later this year or early next year, he would 14 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 2: be the first Australian Prime Minister to go back to 15 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,319 Speaker 2: back in an election since John Howard did in two 16 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 2: thousand and four, So going back twenty years ago, because 17 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:52,160 Speaker 2: think about how turbulent Australian politics is. And he's making 18 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 2: the point that the US doesn't have the same dramas 19 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 2: that we do here in Australia. 20 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: They're sure they have now with the decision. 21 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 2: To Joe Biden to pull out as the Democratic but 22 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 2: we went through the Howard years into Guillard and Rud 23 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 2: and Rud and Guillard and then Turbul and Abbott and 24 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 2: all of a sudden we had Scott Morrison. So isn't 25 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 2: that a funny stat here in Australia For the last 26 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 2: twenty years we haven't had a prime minister to go 27 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:14,479 Speaker 2: back to back at an election. 28 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's actually quite interesting. Hey, what was the housing 29 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: target by twenty thirty one point two million homes? And 30 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: how many are you going to be able to build? 31 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 2: Well, we're going to be able to build about just 32 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 2: under a million, so somewhere between nine hundred thousand and 33 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 2: a million, So I mean that's huge, right, They're off 34 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 2: by twenty percent. And the government's got a massive issue 35 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 2: with this header because they promised to pull down immigration 36 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 2: and they promised to get that below four hundred thousand 37 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: last financial year, which is obviously just finished twenty two 38 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 2: days ago. It came in at four hundred and thirty 39 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 2: five thousand. So one, they said that fix it after 40 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: record migration, they didn't do that. And two, we are 41 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 2: not hitting these housing targets. So where I am in Perth. 42 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,559 Speaker 2: You've seen property prices grow twenty to twenty five percent 43 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 2: over the last twelve months. Forecast is another twenty to 44 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 2: twenty five percent the next twelve months, which is great 45 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 2: if you own your own home, if you got a 46 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 2: roof over your head, but you. 47 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: Can't fight a rental. 48 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 2: You can't find a house to buy anywhere in Western 49 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 2: Australia at the moment. 50 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: It's just ridiculous, Ollie, how cold is it if you 51 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: call off a footy game? 52 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 2: Like? 53 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: How cold does it have to get?

Like you tell me, tell me 55 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: how cold and then we'll make a call. 56 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 2: Well, you've got this situation in basically in Ballarat, so Country, Victoria, 57 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 2: the central Highlands of Victoria.
