1 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: Digging through the Spence Spence to find the real story. 2 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: Or he's Ryan Bridge on Heather Duplicy Ellen drive with 3 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 1: one New Zealand. Let's get connected and news talks. 4 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 2: That'd be good afternoon, just gone seven after four. The 5 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 2: deal between the Cooks and China has just dropped. We'll 6 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,600 Speaker 2: give you details on that, Sir Brian Roach on this 7 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 2: report into departments sharing our data. The PM's open to 8 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 2: sending peacekeeping troops to Ukraine. Ron Mark reacts. Stuart Nash 9 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 2: and Morris Williamson on the Huddle. Plus, we'll look at 10 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 2: the RBA's rate cut ahead of our expected one tomorrow. 11 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 2: Ryan Bridge, Well, it's been a long time coming, but 12 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 2: finally we have our hands on another Roach report, This 13 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 2: one the Public Service Commission, looking at whether census and 14 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 2: vaccination data which was handed out to third parties like 15 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 2: the Mony Day Women I and the White Pardata Trust, 16 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 2: was used improperly. In other words, was it used for 17 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 2: something other than what was intended. The claim from some 18 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 2: was that it was you to help the Maori Party 19 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 2: get more voters out at the last election. This report 20 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 2: doesn't tell us if that happened. It does tell us 21 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 2: we've been badly let down by our government agencies. They've 22 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 2: handed out the data, but they didn't have the checks 23 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 2: and balances in place to make sure it wasn't being 24 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 2: used for something dodgy. So basically we know the data 25 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 2: was out there, we don't know what happened to it afterwards, 26 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 2: and that is a problem. The election result for Tammaki 27 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:34,040 Speaker 2: Mikoto was tight, like it was really close, Taka taime 28 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 2: Ian and Natasha Kemp, who's the Maori Party candidate. Now 29 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 2: Mp was the winning candidate, but also the boss of 30 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,839 Speaker 2: the Marai that got some of the data, John Tomaheady 31 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 2: is the boss of the Wipadata Trust but also the 32 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: Maori Party president. And because we don't have answers to 33 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 2: what happened after we let go of the data, we 34 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 2: don't know what we don't know, and this is a 35 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: big problem. It goes to the heart of the integrity 36 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 2: of our electoral system and this election result and the 37 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 2: Electoral Commission now needs to answer some pretty tough questions 38 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 2: about that now. Brian wrote said today that the White 39 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 2: Parator Trust didn't meet with the Public Service Commission over 40 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 2: this report at all. They would only do so in 41 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 2: writing via lawyers so there will be more to come 42 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 2: on this story. We can be sure of that. And 43 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 2: in the meantime they've announced a funding frees. They're turning 44 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 2: the money off Health New Zealand and to Perny Corkidy 45 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 2: have been told do not give any more money to 46 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 2: the MARA, to wie Parata or to Farno Order's Commissioning 47 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 2: Agency until they can prove that they don't have conflicts 48 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 2: of interests and that they can properly handle private data. 49 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 2: Nine minutes after four here on News Talk seb more 50 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 2: on that later, in fact, we'll speak to sir. Brian 51 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: wrote after five. Now in Wellington, some patients have been 52 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 2: declined specialist appointments based on their BMI. According to reports. 53 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 2: Several local gps say this is happening at Wellington Hospital 54 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 2: and they worry that it's being done to manage waiting lists. 55 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 2: The chief clinical officer at Health inz is Richard Sullivant. 56 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 2: He's with me this afternoon. Hi, Richard. 57 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, cure, Brian, how are you good? 58 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 2: Things? Is this true? 59 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 4: No? 60 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 3: Look Ryan, So the thing to talk through this so 61 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 3: it's not well, what's not true is we're not using 62 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 3: what we call body mass index, which is a really 63 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 3: combination of someone's height and weight to manage wait list. 64 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 3: So that's absolutely not true. The body mass index is 65 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 3: one of many tools that we do use for says 66 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 3: somewhat and sup to belief for surgery, but not its 67 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 3: own account. 68 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 2: So are you turning people away? I mean that surgery 69 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: is one thing, right, but getting to a specialist is 70 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 2: quite another. Are you stopping people from seeing a specialist 71 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 2: because too you know they're overweight. 72 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 3: So based on their weight alone, No, there are criterias 73 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 3: I say around you know, within different areas. So for instance, 74 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 3: if you need any replacement degree of damage to than 75 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 3: any joint, other illnerses someone they had to decide on 76 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 3: whether someone go to search or not. There are different 77 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 3: criteria across the country about accessing to be seen and 78 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 3: that is something we are blackling as healthy elements, so 79 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 3: trying to make sure what we were turned thresholds are the 80 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,119 Speaker 3: same across all our districts. They are not at the moment, 81 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 3: so that. 82 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 2: What's it like in Wellington? Here's a question, have you 83 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 2: turned anyone away from seeing a specialist based on their BMI? 84 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 3: So from what I understand that there are different criteria 85 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 3: in Wellington versus HUT Hospital. They are the same organization, 86 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 3: but they do have different criteria for people who who 87 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 3: should be seen. And you're all one? 88 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 2: Are You're all one? 89 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 5: Now? 90 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 2: So I guess I'm asking in ither hospital has anyone 91 00:04:58,680 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 2: been turned away because of their BMI? 92 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 3: Not my knowledge specifically on their BMI. People have been 93 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 3: declined assistance because of multiple reasons, but not purely just 94 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 3: on their BMI. 95 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: Because there was a letter on the post today from 96 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 2: the hospital that declined based on BMI. Did you see that? 97 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 3: So we're just don't gather up the communications we're sending 98 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 3: out to patients because it's really important day that our 99 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 3: communities you have trust in us and know that, No, 100 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 3: we don't decline people purely based on weight, that it's 101 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 3: multiple factors. But we are just looking into the communication 102 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 3: that we are sending and to your point, you know, 103 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 3: as a single organization, we should have consistent communication with 104 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 3: our patients constant criteria. 105 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 2: There was a mistake. I mean, were there in this case? 106 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 2: Were there are other reasons other than BMI which led 107 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 2: to them being declined. 108 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 3: I don't have partails of that particular case. We're looking 109 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 3: into that particular case, but I can assure you that 110 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 3: as one of many factors when we make these choices. 111 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 2: Is there a case to be made for declining people 112 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 2: the right to see a specialist if their BMI is 113 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 2: too high? I mean, if they're not going to be 114 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 2: able to qualify for surgery, then are you not wanting 115 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 2: to clog the weight lists you know, all the way 116 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 2: down the track? 117 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 3: Great question. So look, I think everyone who should be seen, 118 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 3: where they even need to be seen, should be seen. 119 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 3: There are very key criteria though around the benefit. So 120 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 3: there are some surgeries whereby some people's weight or BMI 121 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 3: is extremely high, they get a poor outcome, so it's 122 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 3: not the right thing to do to operate. But that's 123 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 3: a conversation that patients aren't fine and obviously deserves to 124 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 3: be aware of. So yeah, there's no doubt that the 125 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 3: BMI is one of the clinical tools we used to 126 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 3: assess people's fitness. Is Schidrey and will be. We do 127 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 3: need to get better and you know the aising with 128 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 3: our GPS to ensure that it's clear about where that 129 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 3: sets weird doesn't sit. I think that's an area we 130 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 3: need to do betteran so that patients know and we 131 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 3: set the right expectations. 132 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, Hey, are you going to quit New 133 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 2: Time soon? Most of your colleagues seemed to be. 134 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 3: No, not at all. It's a critical role, hey, de 135 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 3: deliver healthcare for New Zealanders and I'm certainly in the 136 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 3: long haul. 137 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 2: Doesn't feel like a sinking ship. 138 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 3: No, no, Look, you know we've got some great stuff 139 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 3: happening in health and we provide really great healthcare in 140 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 3: many years. That's not to say we've got don't have 141 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 3: your as for improvement. We absolutely need to improve access 142 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 3: to killy, you know, in this context for people who 143 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 3: are waiting to be seen by a specials or waiting 144 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 3: for suitable treatment. So these are big focuses for us 145 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 3: to improve. 146 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 2: Well handled.

What that means later on 172 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 6: and the piece maybe that just helps him move on 173 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 6: into a prime position to take over Joe Schmidt's role 174 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 6: as the head coach of the Wallabies when he retires 175 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 6: from that, because he said he's upping sticks at the 176 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,719 Speaker 6: end of the Rugby Championship. So maybe just maybe. 177 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 2: Mich because it's not exactly it's not the shining light 178 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 2: of jobs. 179 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 7: No, it's not. 180 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 6: And you can get a look and an idea about 181 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 6: how Australian rugby works and what the mechanics are behind 182 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 6: OSI rugby and just start moving in. Whether that is 183 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 6: the case or not, I don't know. It's all about conjecture, 184 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 6: isn't it. 185 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 8: This is the. 186 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 7: Does going well? Maybe maybe maybe I wonder do. 187 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 2: You think you've got to pay out when you left your. 188 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 6: Six figures apparently? Well that's that's what that's I don't 189 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 6: know if there is an Australian appetite though for another 190 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 6: New Zealand coke. No, I really don't think I made 191 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 6: not one of those shaggy Islanders. 192 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 2: That Halberg's tonight Lydia Cogan to win. Well, I mean, 193 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 2: are you who do you have a pick? 194 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 6: No, it'll be someone who's won an Olympic medal, because 195 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 6: that's normally the way this role is. So that's an 196 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 6: Olympic year, someone who wins an Olympic gold wins the Hellbergs. 197 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 6: It's almost like written in stone. 198 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 2: I was listening to you earlier talk about how hard 199 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 2: it is to judge between the different sports. I mean, 200 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 2: how do you compare them? 201 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 7: You can't. It's impossible. 202 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 6: If someone can give me a decent argument, I listen, 203 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 6: I'm all ears. 204 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 7: But after I want to say it, nearly a quarter 205 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 7: of a century doing. 206 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 6: This, I still haven't had anyone give me a convincing 207 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 6: argument as to why the Hellberg's works. 208 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 2: Have you passed a ceremony? Have you in those twenty 209 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 2: five years picked the right horse? 210 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 7: No, I've never indulged in it. I don't see the point. 211 00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 7: It's not a competition. 212 00:10:59,280 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 2: It's just not. 213 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 7: There's no form going into it, no reason mean. 214 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 6: To dress up in suits because we've not advanced, which 215 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 6: I find fascinating that women get to wear these amazing 216 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 6: clothes and the blokes just turn up. 217 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 2: Well, hang on, no, it's twenty twenty five. You can 218 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: wear whatever you want. If you want to go there 219 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 2: and we're addressed, you can do it. 220 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,439 Speaker 6: If they were going to invite me next year and 221 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 6: I'm going to go along, I'm gonna wear what Kanye 222 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 6: West's wife war to the Grammys good. 223 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 2: I don't think you'd make it look as good, Darcy somehow, 224 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 2: thank you for that. 225 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 6: We will thank you. And Michael Burgess joins us tonight 226 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 6: on the show to look at the possible tweaking of 227 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 6: our set awards, just to see you can lift it 228 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 6: and put it forward. 229 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 2: Into the twenty and we'll look forward to listening but 230 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 2: not seeing you later, Darky. Thank you. Darsie wauter Grave 231 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 2: post to Sports Talk seven pm the Halberg's tonight. We'll 232 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 2: let you know if we have any results through it early, 233 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 2: but I think we might be off here by then. 234 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 2: Darcy will have more. Twenty one after Ford and News 235 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 2: Talk said b. 236 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna getting the facts discarding the fluff. It's Ryan 237 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: Bridge on hither Duplice Allen drive with one New Zealand 238 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: let's get connected. 239 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,079 Speaker 2: News Dogs'd be four twenty three Peter's text in to 240 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 2: weigh in on the Hallbergs which are being held tonight. 241 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 2: He says it's easy to judge between the sports, the 242 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 2: ones that have the greater worldwide appeal of superior to 243 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 2: the ones were only three or four nations play. On 244 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 2: that basis he reckons Lydia Cooe should get it. She 245 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 2: was worldwide news and headlines. The rest of them, well, 246 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 2: they didn't achieve that. It's a good point, Peter. I'm 247 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 2: not sure that they'll take that into account tonight. But 248 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 2: although in saying that, I do think Lydia Coe will 249 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 2: take out the top of the Supreme Award, what I'm 250 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 2: basing that on is very little, to be honest with you. 251 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 2: Now here's Starmer. He's been to see all the Europeans 252 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 2: in Paris, and he's off to see Trump next week, 253 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 2: and I think he sees himself as a bit of 254 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 2: a go between between Trump and a very miffed and 255 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 2: peeved off EU. This is over Ukraine, of course, he says, 256 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 2: and we told you this yesterday, he would put troops 257 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 2: on the ground in Ukraine to and you know, ensure peace. 258 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 2: Yes to that. But today he is saying they need 259 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 2: a US backstop. 260 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 9: But there must be a US backstop because a US 261 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 9: security guarantee is the only way to effectively deter Russia 262 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 9: from attacking Ukraine again. 263 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,119 Speaker 2: Now, he hasn't actually defined what he means by a backstop. 264 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 2: Some reading between the lines have said, well, he probably 265 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 2: means air cover, logistics, you know, air defenses, intelligence, that 266 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 2: kind of stuff from the Americans which they would need 267 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 2: in order to make that thing successful. I mean, they 268 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 2: still have a long way to go in terms of 269 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 2: there is no deal yet anyway, you know, there's that problem. 270 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 2: But anyway, there you go, Starma, the man between Europe 271 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 2: and the White House. Apparently Labor has come up with 272 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 2: an idea today. It's not a new idea, so I 273 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 2: shouldn't say they've come up with it, but I kind 274 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:54,599 Speaker 2: of like the idea that Barbara Edmonds, whose Labour's finance spokeswoman, 275 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 2: is out there floating ideas. This is good, This is 276 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 2: good because we need discussions. So Electra's the prices are 277 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 2: a problem. 278 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 10: We know this. 279 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 2: The winter crunch comes along, the wholesale spot prices go 280 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 2: up through the roof and everybody's shickered. So Barbara Evans 281 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 2: came out today on the Caucus runs and suggested that 282 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 2: maybe we force the gen tailors, the ones that the 283 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 2: government owns the majority of, that we force them to 284 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 2: reinvest their dividends into new generation rather than paying the 285 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 2: government the dividend. Now great to have an idea on 286 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 2: the table, The idea of course is that you have 287 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 2: new generation, and therefore you fill some of the voids 288 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 2: and you avoid the winter crunch. Will it work Genesis, Mercury, Meridian. 289 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 2: They all pay a dividend to the government, and they 290 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 2: all have a government majority stake. And you can do 291 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 2: this just by writing a letter. You just write a 292 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 2: letter of expectation to the board and tell them what 293 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 2: you want them to do. So thoughts on that nine 294 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 2: two ninety two is the number to text. The obvious 295 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 2: problem of courses that you strip the government of revenue, 296 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 2: you know, at a time where they're trying to I'm 297 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 2: out of the read so that would be a problem 298 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 2: that you would immediately foresee that the government wouldn't like. 299 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 2: But there you go. The numbers text are very sober 300 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 2: here with politics, I'm sure he'll have something on that 301 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 2: as well as the deal between the Cooks and China. 302 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 2: We have it. We'll tell you what Senate shortly news talks. 303 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 11: He'd be jet call a phoney j We can break 304 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 11: it in if you know, person, We could break in. 305 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 2: Person. 306 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 12: We do break in. 307 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 13: If you know. 308 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 2: Put some Mason. 309 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: Putting the challenging questions to the people at the heart 310 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: of the story it's Ryan Bridge on hither dupicl and 311 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: drive with one New Zealand let's get connected and youth talks. 312 00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 14: He'd be. 313 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 2: Twenty five away from five year on news talks, they'd be. 314 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 2: The Aussies are just cut their official cash rate by 315 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 2: zero point two twenty five basis points down to four 316 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 2: point one. Murray Olds is going to be with us 317 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 2: in a second to break that down is what they 318 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 2: were expecting over there. Of course they've had an easier 319 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 2: time than us because their reserve bank didn't quite go 320 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 2: as hard and fast as ours did so but this 321 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 2: is their first cut, so they will be happy about that. 322 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 2: And I tell you who we'll be happier as Anthony 323 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 2: one Anthony Albanizi twenty five to five. 324 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 5: It's the world wires on news talks, they'd be drive. 325 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 2: Kirstarma has called on European leaders to step up and 326 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 2: increase their defense spending. It's after threats from America from 327 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 2: the White House after meetings with Russia. 328 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 9: US is not going to leave later, but we Europeans 329 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 9: will have to do more. The issue of burden sharing 330 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 9: is not new, but it is now pressing and Europeans 331 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 9: will have to step up both in terms of spending 332 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 9: and the capabilities that we provide. 333 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,439 Speaker 2: The Pope's still in hospital.

The eighty eight year old Pope was 337 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 15: admitted with bronchitis four days ago, and the Vatican said 338 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 15: he would remain there for as long as necessary. 339 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 2: Right stateside, we're going now.

It's very early on. 351 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 12: It's really important that we do not speculate. What we 352 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 12: can see is a runway was dry, and there is 353 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 12: no christ wind conditions. We also want to give an update. 354 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 12: We can now confirm that eighteen injured passengers have been 355 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 12: transported to the local area hospitals. 356 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 2: Finally, this afternoon, scientists have revealed if you're shaking your 357 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 2: wee booty right now, well it's actually quite good for you. 358 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 2: Scientists revealing that dancing around the kitchen for twenty minutes 359 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 2: can help people reach their weekly exercise targets.

I wouldn't have thought quite. 362 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 2: As you know, it doesn't require as much exertion as 363 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 2: you know, hip hop something like that. Anyway, Esther McCulloch, 364 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 2: and expert in the North of Eastern University in the US, 365 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 2: real that the aim of this study was to find 366 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 2: more straightforward ways for people to the active results, showing 367 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 2: that it can be just as effective as a gym membership. 368 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:09,120 Speaker 1: International correspondence with ends inn Eye Insurance Peace of Mind 369 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 1: for New Zealand Business. 370 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 2: Murray Oldiers will as Astralia correspondent. You'll be dancing with 371 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 2: the RBA decision Murray. 372 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 17: Well, yes, very good. Afternoon, Ryan, A lot of people 373 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 17: will be very happy. I mean, it's not a lot 374 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 17: of money. If you've got a six hundred thousand dollars 375 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 17: mortgage over here, it'll cut your repayments by about one 376 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 17: hundred bucks a month. But since the bank began lifting 377 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 17: rates before the twenty twenty two election, repayments on that 378 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 17: same mortgage have risen by nearly fifteen hundred bucks a month. 379 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 17: So you're going to be saving one hundred down off 380 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 17: that high of fifteen hundred. I mean, this interest a 381 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 17: big your pardon. The official cash rate over here was 382 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 17: at a thirteen year high, and it's been there, you know, 383 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 17: for four years. It's been a long, long, long time. 384 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 17: Just about every economist over here said the board would 385 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 17: cut rates. Inflation was easing significant the December quarter was 386 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 17: two point four. That was the annual rate, the underlying 387 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 17: rate of inflation, which is the one the Reserve Bank 388 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 17: looks at most closely because it strips out all the 389 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 17: volatile things. That was three point two, marginally outside the 390 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 17: two to three percent band the reserve banks looking for. 391 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 17: So yes, interest rate cuts on the way here. It 392 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 17: won't be the first this year. That's what they're all 393 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 17: saying Anthony Albanezi very happy. Indeed, it's a bit of 394 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 17: a spring in his step given the awful opinion polls 395 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 17: of recent days. And you know, for I suppose sentiment, 396 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 17: I mean, the country has been flatters attacked, notwithstanding good 397 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,360 Speaker 17: job figures, and a lot of people have been balancing 398 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 17: on a knife's edge around the kitchen tables of the country. 399 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 17: So this is good news, no doubt about it. 400 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, and instated first in a very long time, 401 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 2: this video that we would lead our news actually led 402 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 2: our six o'clock news over here in New Zealand of 403 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 2: the Sydney nurses who were saying, oh you will just, 404 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,400 Speaker 2: you know, let the Israelis die basically or or even 405 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 2: kill them in hospital. And you've had some blowback from 406 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 2: Muslim groups, Well we have. 407 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 17: I don't know what you thought. I saw that video, 408 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 17: and I saw it the number of times I felt 409 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 17: sick in the guts. But they looked like a couple 410 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 17: of young, dumb buffheads who were almost showing off to 411 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 17: each other and trying to hit this Israeli guy who 412 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 17: was playing him like a fiddle. That was my initial take. 413 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 17: Having said that, I mean, it was disgraceful, the fet 414 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 17: the governments of all levels. We're busy slapping these kids 415 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 17: silly and know they've been sacked as nurses won't work 416 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 17: in New South Wales again, so predictably, almost as a 417 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 17: coalition of Australian Muslim groups who have said this is 418 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,159 Speaker 17: all about manufactured outrage on the part of those that 419 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 17: were upset by the video. These Muslim groups have put 420 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,719 Speaker 17: out a statement saying quote it condemns the hypocrisy over 421 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 17: the video where I'm here, it's calculated, politically motivated outrage. 422 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 17: It's not a failure of consistency, it's the deliberate engineering 423 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 17: of public morality. The frustration and anger directed at Israel, 424 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 17: because of course that's what the nurses were saying. We 425 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 17: don't like Israel, and Israelis will be killed or targeted 426 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 17: if they come into my hospital bedrooms. The frustration and 427 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 17: anger directed in Israel's direct response to Israel's violent and 428 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 17: inhumane policies. It's not an expression of hatred, of hatred 429 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 17: towards Jewish people. Well, you can split hairs and you're like, 430 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 17: this is going to go down like a lead balloon 431 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 17: just about everywhere. It's it's almost sad in a way 432 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 17: that these bizzont grips have felt compelled to come out 433 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,719 Speaker 17: and say these things. I don't forget one of them. 434 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 17: His book Tahia is actually banned in the UK. It's 435 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,159 Speaker 17: on the edge. It's pretty extreme. So this is, as 436 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 17: you say, blowback Ryan from the outrage it was expressed 437 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 17: a week ago. 438 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 2: You've got this problem. We have this problem here too, 439 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 2: the e bikes and the scooters catching fire because of 440 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 2: the batteries. But quite a bad one in wester of Sydney. 441 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 17: Oh, dreadful last night. While earlier this morning six o'clock, 442 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 17: there were six young people in a rented property in 443 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 17: the western suburbs of Sydney at Guilford. They think it's 444 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 17: an e scooter. They have to do more forensic testing 445 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 17: of the of the of the house, what's left of 446 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 17: the house. But five of the residents got out alive. 447 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 17: It looks like the sixth a young man was trapped 448 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 17: in his bedroom and the dreadful feeling is that perhaps 449 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 17: he was charging his e scooter in the bedroom. The 450 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 17: things caught fire. What fire and safety officers over here, 451 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 17: firefighters have been saying for for months and months and months, 452 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 17: it's like a thermal runaway fire. It's not something you 453 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 17: can put out with a cup of water. This thing 454 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 17: takes on a life of its own and you simply 455 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 17: can't put him out. And if the scooter that's blazing 456 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 17: away is between you and the only door out of 457 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 17: the room, it's not going to end well for you. 458 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 17: And so that's why they're saying, if you're going to 459 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 17: charge these things, charge them outside, Charge them, not in 460 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 17: a exit route out of the home or out of 461 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 17: the property where you are. It's the third death in 462 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 17: New South Wales that's now being attributed to these things. 463 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 17: But have we listen to this three fires and sitting 464 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 17: in the last twenty four hours well in them fatal 465 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 17: twenty eight fires and ten injuries this year alone, and 466 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 17: more than three hundred e scooter or e bike fires 467 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 17: last year. But it's not just big batteries. There's one 468 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,880 Speaker 17: thousand files a month last year from electric toothbrushes, from 469 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,959 Speaker 17: things like Kenny's Toys. They've got these batteries in they 470 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 17: go out in the recycling and in the rubbish and 471 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 17: there catching fire in rubbish recycling centers or in the 472 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,200 Speaker 17: back of rubbish trucks. It's a very big problem. Not 473 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 17: sure how they're going to deal with it. 474 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 2: To be frank, No, it sounds like it's getting a 475 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: little out of hand. Murray, thank you for that. Murray 476 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 2: Old's Australia correspondent with US just confirming the RBA has 477 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 2: cut their first time since twenty twenty, that the Reserve 478 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 2: Bank of Australia has cut their official cash. Right over there, 479 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 2: we're expecting ours. Of course tomorrow we'll have Brad Olsen 480 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 2: on that after sixth this evening coming up next. Why 481 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 2: has the boss of stats n Z decided to leave? 482 00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 2: And was it his decision? 483 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: Barry So politics with centrics credit, check your customers and 484 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 1: get payments certainty. 485 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 2: Fourteen to five, all the secrecy, all of the hiding 486 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 2: behind the diplomacy, and finally we have our hands on 487 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 2: this comprehensive strategic partnership between the Cooks and China. Barry Spacy, Hey, Barry. 488 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 7: And it has to be put into some perspective, doesn't 489 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 7: it really? 490 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 4: Ryan? 491 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 14: That the Cork Hmans has a population of well under 492 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 14: twenty thousand people. China has a population of one point 493 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 14: four billion people. The Cooks is about the size population wise, 494 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 14: or smaller than Levin. So it's like China doing a 495 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 14: deal with livi In. And why on earth Mark Brown, 496 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 14: the Prime Minister of the Cooks, has kept this deal secret. 497 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 14: Goodness only knows either it is creating trouble because it 498 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 14: is an insult in New Zealand. We do have an 499 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 14: agreement with the Cork Islands to be open and frank 500 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 14: with New Zealand about their dealings internationally. They are part 501 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 14: of a row are the the New Zealand realm, which 502 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 14: basically means we both have as head of stake King 503 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,920 Speaker 14: King Charles. So no big deal, but I've read of 504 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 14: skim read the deal if they if the Chinese are 505 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 14: trying to win the hearts and minds of the Cork Islanders, 506 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 14: China has agreed to continue to supply scholarship opportunities to 507 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,199 Speaker 14: the Corks and they'll make every endeavor to take them up. 508 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 7: That's the Cork Island. 509 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 14: China will continue to promote the Chinese language by Cork 510 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 14: Islanders and they're providing they'll provide teaching resources within the 511 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 14: Corks to teach them Chinese. 512 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 2: See the thing is I mean you mentioned Levin. Levin 513 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 2: doesn't need a new port being built for you know 514 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 2: what I mean. 515 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 14: The infrastructure has been built by the Chinese in the 516 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,360 Speaker 14: Cork Islands now for some considerable time. 517 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 2: Yes, but this looks to me. I mean, the thing 518 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 2: that worries me, the only thing that worries me about 519 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 2: this agreement is the mention of one belt one road, 520 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 2: which is you know, the old Silk the new Silk 521 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 2: road they're looking at, so, I mean, are they wanting 522 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 2: to put the cooks on it? 523 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 13: You know. 524 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 14: The thing is you look at the the Pacific was 525 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 14: ignored by the United States for quite a long time. 526 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 14: The Chinese influence in the Court, not in mccox, in 527 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 14: the Pacific nationhood has been essentially taken up by the Chinese. 528 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:27,160 Speaker 14: So they are much more influence influence in the Pacific 529 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:28,120 Speaker 14: than they once were. 530 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 7: But that's you'd have to look at the reasons for that. 531 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 14: New Zealand's doing its best now to reestablish itself, but 532 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 14: doesn't have the money unfortunately. 533 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 2: That China has a lot of big reports out today 534 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 2: which we've been you know, skimming our way through the 535 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 2: Public Service Commission report and we've had a addis into 536 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 2: the vaccines and the census Darnam. We've had the state 537 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 2: stats in z boss fall on his sword. 538 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 14: Yes, Sir Mark Soden, he's going at the end of marches, 539 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 14: which is when his contract ends. I'm not sure there 540 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 14: has been told to Walker. I suspect that is the case. 541 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 14: Brian Roach, who I know very well, probably said to him, Look, come, 542 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 14: it's not a good look for the public service. This 543 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 14: too many gaps, not enough checks and balances, and of 544 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 14: course you've got the Maldi Party right at. 545 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 7: The center of this. 546 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 14: What this inquiry didn't do though, and it's important to 547 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 14: note that it didn't look at the validity of the 548 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 14: specific allegations that have been made against the Maldi Party. 549 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 14: That's being locked at by the Privacy Commissioner and by 550 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 14: the police, and they are the critical ones when it 551 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 14: comes to politics and all of this. But certainly the 552 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 14: public service generally has been found wanting. And I know 553 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 14: you're going to be talking to Brian Roach and you'll 554 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 14: know how to repeat those comments. 555 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 2: The Green's been a bit silly in parliament. 556 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 14: Oh honestly, Ryan, I thought, if you really want to 557 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 14: know how ridiculous the Greens can come, it can be 558 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 14: when it comes to parliament.

I think the issue 664 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 23: that was highlighted in the review that we were found 665 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 23: to not have all of the protections in place that 666 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 23: we need in a new operating environment, and that's what 667 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:31,720 Speaker 23: we're seeking to change. 668 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,280 Speaker 2: So will will they get public money going forward? 669 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 23: I think so that's very much an issue for the agencies. 670 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 23: My jurisdiction is actually how the agencies provides money to 671 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 23: suit parties. I don't have a direct relationship with those, 672 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 23: but the principle that we're adopting here is that when 673 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 23: you are in receipt of public money, there is a 674 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 23: duty of care and obligation to the taxpayer to have 675 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 23: certain minimum standards around it on art to sharing and 676 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 23: conflicts of interest management. 677 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 2: And this report shows that some pretty big government agencies 678 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 2: didn't have those. 679 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 23: This report does show that, as I've said publicly, this 680 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 23: is a very sobering report to read, that it was 681 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 23: unacceptable what was done. We left open the fact that 682 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 23: public that private information could have been compromised. That's just 683 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:31,879 Speaker 23: an unacceptable thing from where I sit. What's the consequence, Well, 684 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 23: the consequences the Chief Executive has decided, you know, to 685 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 23: not renew as contract. That's a very high sanction. The 686 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 23: other consequences are that we are going to change the 687 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 23: way that we contract with third parties and we will 688 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 23: impose certain standards on them. We will be open to 689 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 23: criticism as being bureaucratic. We are not being bureaucratic. We 690 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 23: are just being clear about the duty of care required 691 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:02,719 Speaker 23: on people who access is public money to discharge services. 692 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 2: And this is what I was getting at before. So 693 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 2: in the case of Manydowa Marian, the Wipe Data Trust, 694 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 2: going forward, will they be able to get contracts or 695 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 2: do they have to prove something to departments before they 696 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 2: can do that. 697 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 23: They, like all other people who receive money, will have 698 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 23: to actually comply with the new contract standards, which we 699 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 23: hope to be operative from one July. That will be 700 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 23: a decision for them whether they choose to do that 701 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,720 Speaker 23: or not. That is not something for me to decide. 702 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 2: And what is the requirement around conflicts of interest in 703 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 2: your new standards? 704 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 23: We just want greater transparency and the ability to follow 705 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 23: the trail to assure ourselves that when you've got public money, 706 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,800 Speaker 23: you have a duty of care to maintain certain standards. 707 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 23: Conflicts of interests is one of them. I think that 708 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,760 Speaker 23: is a very very generally accepted contractual requirement. 709 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,919 Speaker 2: Is it appropriate to have the boss of an agent 710 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,240 Speaker 2: the receiving money also the president of a political party. 711 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 23: We live in a very small country where people have 712 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 23: multiple roles. Ultimately, that's the matter for the agency who 713 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 23: is contracting them to satisfy themselves. 714 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:18,320 Speaker 2: On This has been a long time coming, this report, 715 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:23,320 Speaker 2: Sir Brian. Were you surprised at just how loose the 716 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 2: back end was here from some of our departments? 717 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 10: Oh? 718 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 24: Yeah, it was. 719 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 23: You know, I've said publicly that this, particularly with respect 720 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 23: to this Department of Statistics, it was a systemic failure. 721 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 23: You know, they breached a threshold of seriousness which has 722 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 23: ended up in the Chief Executive deciding to leave and 723 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 23: US having to make quite significant changes across the public sector. 724 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 3: You know, it is a very valuable. 725 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,919 Speaker 23: Learning lesson for us. It has taken a long time. 726 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,240 Speaker 23: It's a complex area, but it's one that I'm comfortable 727 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 23: that we've reached in the right position at the end. 728 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:00,879 Speaker 2: So Brian, thank you very much. Times that Brian Wroch, 729 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 2: the State Services Commissioner, eleven after five Bridge she Zealand 730 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 2: is open to sending peacekeeping troops to Ukraine. Here's the 731 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 2: Prime Minister this morning. I'll tell you what he said. 732 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 2: He said, we are open to sending troops to Ukraine. 733 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 2: He also wants to get defense spending close to two 734 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 2: percent of GDP. We're currently spending just over one percent. 735 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,840 Speaker 2: The former Defense minister is Ron Marky's with me this evening. 736 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,959 Speaker 3: Hello, Hello, Ryan, how are you today? 737 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,320 Speaker 2: Very well? Thank you. Do we have the capacity to 738 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 2: send well, would we have the capacity to send troops 739 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 2: to Ukraine? 740 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 3: Well, it depends what role and what function they were 741 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 3: being asked to perform. Ryan, I think we know from 742 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 3: the many deployments we have around the world that some 743 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 3: deployments might just be one or two officers, maybe a 744 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 3: dozen in different locales, not like the I think the 745 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:57,320 Speaker 3: eight we've got the United Nations, it might be larger 746 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 3: than the twenty eight we've got with your Multinational Force 747 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:04,320 Speaker 3: and Observed, or you know, if we're considering the seven 748 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 3: thousand odd that we sent to East teamor over a 749 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 3: extended duration, that was quite a different deployment as was Bosnia. 750 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,880 Speaker 3: So it really comes down to what does New Zealand 751 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 3: want to do and what role would it want to 752 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 3: take up in a peacekeeping missile? Are we going to 753 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,760 Speaker 3: put troops on the ground to enforce a peace keeping 754 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:31,120 Speaker 3: a deal or are we going to make cups of tea? 755 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 10: Well? 756 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,520 Speaker 2: Good question. What do you think about this idea that 757 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,240 Speaker 2: we pump out spending up to two percent? We're currently 758 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 2: at about one point two. I mean, that's but we're 759 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 2: talking billions and billions of dollars here. It would happen 760 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:45,360 Speaker 2: and presumably over a long period of time, But do 761 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 2: we need to do that? 762 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 3: Well, when I wrote the New Zealand first Defense policy 763 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 3: way back in the nineteen nineties, and I advocated that 764 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:56,280 Speaker 3: we should be targeting a budget of two percent of GDP. 765 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 3: A lot of people scoffed at it, and I think 766 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 3: even the dimest research as we'll find which parties in 767 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:05,759 Speaker 3: the Parliament have always resisted increasing defense spending. I don't 768 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 3: think we're anywhere near one point one percent right now. 769 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 17: Ryan. 770 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 3: We hit that high in my time as Minister of Defense, 771 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 3: but we've slipped back again. I guess the fund that 772 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 3: the base question right now is if we are going 773 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 3: to deploy an elements to assist with the peacekeeping operation 774 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 3: in Ukraine, what would that look like and how much 775 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,400 Speaker 3: money would that require? Who's going to pay for it? 776 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,279 Speaker 3: Are we going to see an immediate injection into the 777 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 3: Defense Force to meet such a commitment? And what is 778 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 3: the commitment going to be is I don't think you 779 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 3: can deploy troops anywhere without providing the resources, both material 780 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:46,239 Speaker 3: personnel or be they material personnel or fiscal And to 781 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 3: expect the Chief of Defense Force to make a deploy 782 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 3: troops on another mission without having an increase in his 783 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 3: budget to cover that would not be sensible. It would 784 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:58,360 Speaker 3: be setting people up to fail. 785 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 2: Certainly sounds reasonable to me. Ron, thank you very much 786 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 2: for that. Ron Mark, who's the former defense minister with 787 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,720 Speaker 2: us just gone fourteen minutes after five the Prime Minister 788 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,360 Speaker 2: this morning. This is what he had to say on 789 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,840 Speaker 2: sending troops to peacekeeping troops to Ukraine. 790 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 25: I think we've got a long way to go. We're 791 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:12,800 Speaker 25: very supportive of Ukraine. 792 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 2: We'd be open to it. 793 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 3: We stand with the Ukraine. 794 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:16,879 Speaker 19: It's important, you know, we have these values about nation 795 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 19: state sovereignty, you know, rule of law. 796 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 2: You know, we'd be open to that. 797 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 5: There you go. 798 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 2: I mean a lot of what had gone to the 799 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,479 Speaker 2: bridge before we get there isn't there Coming up next, 800 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 2: Kate Roger is going to be with us because if 801 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 2: you're somebody who watches Netflix, watches any television actually, and 802 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:35,160 Speaker 2: also scrolls on your phone, there is a new feature 803 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 2: coming that might interest you. It's probably bad for humanity, 804 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 2: the state of our brains, but a new feature coming 805 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 2: that might help you. We'll get to that next news talks. 806 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 2: Here'd be it is seventeen minutes after five. Netflix is 807 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 2: now creating a second screen show. This is designed for 808 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 2: people who want to scroll on their phones while they're 809 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 2: also watching TV. Don't lie, you do it too. The 810 00:41:55,719 --> 00:42:00,320 Speaker 2: shows feature overly descriptive dialogue, repetitive plots. This is in 811 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:04,000 Speaker 2: order to engage an increasingly distracted audience who want to 812 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 2: double screen. Kate Rodgers, the film reviewershuits with us this 813 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 2: evening high. 814 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:10,359 Speaker 24: Kate, you knew to ring there immediately because you knew 815 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 24: how much this was going to whine the arts. 816 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 2: Kate? Is this the end of the arts? 817 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 24: No, this is the devolution of the human race. And 818 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,240 Speaker 24: before you know it, we're just going to be shopping 819 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 24: around like omebers, just sliming along the ground, bumping into 820 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 24: each other. We've got a brain cell to spare between us. 821 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:29,680 Speaker 2: Are they going to give out an oscar for the 822 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,720 Speaker 2: best second screen movie? 823 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 5: You know? 824 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 2: Where are we heading? 825 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 24: I don't know where we're heading, And honestly, I would 826 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 24: argue that ninety percent of the shows we're watching on 827 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:44,320 Speaker 24: streaming are basically second screen shows. Anyway. I mean, you 828 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:47,719 Speaker 24: know me well enough that when they started telling us 829 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 24: that we could watch Christopher Nolan films on our phone, 830 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 24: I knew that we were going down hill, and we 831 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 24: were going downhill fast. And I also know what a 832 00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 24: purest I am and what a dinosaur I am. And 833 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 24: I will confess there have been one or two moments 834 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,719 Speaker 24: where I have found myself looking at my phone when 835 00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 24: I'm watching TV. But I would argue, I'm just watching 836 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,840 Speaker 24: something rubbish that Max, my twelve year old that's watching. 837 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 24: But I'm a red I won't let the kids have 838 00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 24: a phone if we're going to sit down and watch 839 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,640 Speaker 24: the movies, whatever it might be, because I do sit 840 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 24: my kids down to watch a movie. But I do 841 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 24: know that I'm just wasting my breath. I mean, how 842 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 24: many phones do you watch? And how many iPads are 843 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 24: you watching? 844 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:30,800 Speaker 2: When you watch and listening to this. Everybody listening to 845 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:32,799 Speaker 2: this knows that they do a little bit of this too. 846 00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:35,440 Speaker 2: So what will people actually notice to tell us what 847 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,720 Speaker 2: the difference will be in the product from what I'm gathering? 848 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 24: And if anyone's going to do this in part theer 849 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:42,480 Speaker 24: this and by the sound of it, it's been happening 850 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 24: in boardrooms across streaming head offices all over the world 851 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 24: as basically dumbing it down to a level that it's repetitive, 852 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 24: that you're never going to lose track of the plot. 853 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 24: So you're sitting your scrolling through Instagram and then suddenly 854 00:43:55,120 --> 00:44:00,399 Speaker 24: you hear the word angela fever. I don't you look 855 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,920 Speaker 24: up and go, oh, gosh, I forgot that Nigel from 856 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,320 Speaker 24: because Honah got glendular fever when he was twelve and 857 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 24: that's why he's struggling to make his relationship work with 858 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 24: Daphney from Cans. And then they'll repeat it again ten 859 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 24: minutes later. 860 00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 10: And you go, oh, angela fever. 861 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 24: I guess they're making it so that they're constantly repeating 862 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,040 Speaker 24: certain bits of a plot in order for you to 863 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 24: cap up. And you know what, there's so many people 864 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,800 Speaker 24: and I know them myself, especially in these days and 865 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,839 Speaker 24: age where we are stressed and anxious, that go back 866 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 24: to shows that we've watched over and over again, whether 867 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,759 Speaker 24: it's The Gilmore Girls, whether it's Suits, whatever it might be. 868 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:39,800 Speaker 24: We know everything that's going to happen. There's a comfort 869 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 24: in that. It also means we don't really have to 870 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,799 Speaker 24: engage the brain or the synapses. We can just let 871 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:46,880 Speaker 24: it wash over us and we know what's happening. So 872 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:50,120 Speaker 24: they're essentially trying to tap their algorithm into that motion 873 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 24: that we don't have to think, and then we can 874 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,839 Speaker 24: just sit and though why would we bother? Why don't 875 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 24: you just sit on Instagram on them? Why don't you 876 00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:58,240 Speaker 24: watch something? 877 00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:00,840 Speaker 2: Well exactly, Kate, thank you for that. Hate Roger, who's 878 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 2: a film reviewer and critic and quite critical of this idea, 879 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:07,360 Speaker 2: I have to say, you're not doing nothing in defense 880 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,239 Speaker 2: of the net. You are still engaging your brain. In fact, 881 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:13,120 Speaker 2: you could say you're more engaged because you're multitasking on 882 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 2: multiple platforms all at once. So I don't know, will 883 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 2: we become thicker? Have we become thicker? I think the 884 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,480 Speaker 2: answer is probably yes. It's just got twenty one minutes 885 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 2: after five, you're on news Talk ZB. I'll tell you 886 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:26,960 Speaker 2: why noise canceling headphones are a bad idea shortly. Also, 887 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,800 Speaker 2: next i'll tell you about how many government departments we 888 00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 2: have in New Zealand compared to everyone's favorite country at 889 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:37,240 Speaker 2: the moment, Ireland. So there's a lot of mobile companies 890 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:39,839 Speaker 2: out there claiming to be the best, But what does 891 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:42,439 Speaker 2: the best actually mean? For one end z it means 892 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:47,080 Speaker 2: being exhaustively tested by independent benchmarking organization UMLAUT part of 893 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 2: its censure who do this across more than one hundred 894 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 2: and twenty countries? Globally and boy is they're testing thorough 895 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,800 Speaker 2: it's likeful like comparisons with the same devices on the 896 00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:58,880 Speaker 2: same mobile package at the same location in performing the 897 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 2: exact same action like downloading a movie or uploading a 898 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 2: photo on a phone. They also supplement their scoring with 899 00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:08,320 Speaker 2: crowdsawce Darter, which covers ninety eight percent of New Zealand's 900 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:11,400 Speaker 2: population area. And guess who came out on top is 901 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:14,320 Speaker 2: In twenty twenty four out of our three big tailcos, 902 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:17,280 Speaker 2: one en z It's mobile network performed the best, winning 903 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,839 Speaker 2: for both voice and data and that's the third year 904 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,000 Speaker 2: in a row one en z have taken out this award. 905 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:26,279 Speaker 2: That is impressive. So if you're with one end z, 906 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,759 Speaker 2: it's good to know you're already on New Zealand's best 907 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 2: mobile network. And if you're not, check out one dot 908 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 2: n z to join the winners. 909 00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 1: Moving the big stories of the d forward, it's Ryan 910 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:41,880 Speaker 1: Bridge on Heather dup c Allen Drive with one New Zealand. 911 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:45,319 Speaker 5: Let's get connected. News talks'd be five. 912 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:48,440 Speaker 2: Point twenty five. This idea we blow up some government 913 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,600 Speaker 2: departments and agencies is finally getting its day in the sun. 914 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 2: So Brian Roach, Who's Luxelon's Public Service ZAR, to use 915 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 2: a Trump term, is talking about hitting control delete on 916 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:03,359 Speaker 2: entire agent sees. And you've got to ask yourself, why 917 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 2: do we have so many and what exactly is their purpose? 918 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:11,879 Speaker 2: Why do we have a ministry for women? Yes, there 919 00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 2: are disparities between men and women that warrant government attention, 920 00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:19,759 Speaker 2: don't get me wrong, But there are also disparities that 921 00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 2: go the other way. Men make up around eighty percent 922 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,359 Speaker 2: of our homeless. Men are three to five times more 923 00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:29,440 Speaker 2: likely to die by suicide. If we follow the logic 924 00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:31,399 Speaker 2: of having a ministry for women, should we not also 925 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 2: have ministry for men. It's not just departments whose purpose 926 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 2: is questionable and results hard to quantify, but also the 927 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:43,440 Speaker 2: sheer number of them. We've created a beast that multiplies 928 00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 2: like a virus and adds layers all the way to 929 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 2: the top. The New Zealand Initiative did a report and 930 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 2: they found that this country, compared to comparable nations, has 931 00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 2: forty four percent more ministers, nearly treble the number of portfolios, 932 00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:02,760 Speaker 2: and one and a half times as many departments. Why Ireland, 933 00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:05,160 Speaker 2: which it's trendy at the moment to aspire to be 934 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 2: like similar population to US has around fifteen ministers, eighteen 935 00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:16,800 Speaker 2: departments and eighteen portfolios. We have seventy eight portfolios and 936 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:21,160 Speaker 2: forty agencies. If others can cope without them, and they 937 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:22,080 Speaker 2: seem to be all. 938 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:24,799 Speaker 5: Right, why can't we Crayon Bridge. 939 00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:27,200 Speaker 2: Twenty seven, after five year on news Talk, said B 940 00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:29,759 Speaker 2: lots to come. After the news, we're going to talk 941 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:31,239 Speaker 2: to you about well, I want to bring you this 942 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 2: story about noise canceling headphones. I've never used them, but 943 00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:36,799 Speaker 2: if you use them, or if you've got kids who 944 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:38,759 Speaker 2: use them, there's a bit of a warning about what 945 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:42,160 Speaker 2: it's doing to your ears also, which kind of doesn't 946 00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 2: make sense because you think noise canceling headphones would be 947 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:46,919 Speaker 2: good for your ears, but actually they might be quite bad. 948 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,439 Speaker 2: And I'll explain that. We'll also look at that plane 949 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:53,840 Speaker 2: crash in Toronto and some suggestions from the IPCA on 950 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:57,279 Speaker 2: how we handle protests going into the future. You're on 951 00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 2: news Talk, said B. 952 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:06,279 Speaker 22: If you can't tell, they said Sam. 953 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:30,600 Speaker 1: After making the news, the newsmakers talk to Ryan first. 954 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 5: It's Ryan Bridge on Hither. 955 00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 1: Duplessy Alan Drive with one New Zealand let's get connected 956 00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 1: news talks. 957 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:38,880 Speaker 5: They'd be We'll never A. 958 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:48,359 Speaker 2: We'll never, We'll never, twenty five minutes away from six 959 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,800 Speaker 2: Stuart National. Morris Williamson's standing by with the huddle very quickly. 960 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:54,600 Speaker 2: Noise canceling headphones Do you use them? I don't use them, 961 00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 2: but I know a lot of young people use them, 962 00:49:56,960 --> 00:50:01,240 Speaker 2: and there's potentially a problem with overuse of as canceling headphones. 963 00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 2: And the GPS have been ringing the alarm bells over 964 00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:08,040 Speaker 2: in the UK about this, which is fascinating. When you 965 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:11,920 Speaker 2: sit in a cafe, you are listening to dozens of 966 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,000 Speaker 2: different noises all at once. Right, You've got the cafe, 967 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:17,359 Speaker 2: the coffee grinder going, you've got people chattering away, you've 968 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:19,680 Speaker 2: got the till ringing, you've got the cars outside, and 969 00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:23,360 Speaker 2: your brain is working, almost like sport. It is working 970 00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:26,480 Speaker 2: to place all of those sounds around you and try 971 00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:29,160 Speaker 2: and figure out where they're coming from. When you have 972 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:33,840 Speaker 2: noise canceling headphones on, there is just one sound, so 973 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 2: your brain's ability, this is what they think, your brain's 974 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:39,279 Speaker 2: ability to figure out where a sound is coming from 975 00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:43,040 Speaker 2: could be affected by this. There's a particular young woman 976 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:45,799 Speaker 2: who they've looked at who spends five hours a day 977 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 2: on her noise canceling headphones. Her hearing is fine and 978 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:52,800 Speaker 2: the hearing test, but she's having trouble deciphering where the 979 00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:56,120 Speaker 2: sounds are coming from and it's taking her longer to 980 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 2: tune in, and she's not alone in the UK. So anyway, 981 00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 2: just a preemptive warning you if you do use them, 982 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 2: maybe do it less so twenty three away from six Bridge. 983 00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,960 Speaker 2: The Independent Police Conduct Authority is calling for new legislation 984 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:12,080 Speaker 2: around how officers deal with protests, and we've sent a 985 00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:13,600 Speaker 2: few of those in the last few days, haven't we. 986 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 2: The changes would allow police and local authorities to set 987 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:20,160 Speaker 2: conditions around the protest applications, the traffic management, and they 988 00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:23,120 Speaker 2: might even stop you from picketing outside private residence like 989 00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:26,399 Speaker 2: the PM's house. The current framework has also been called 990 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:30,799 Speaker 2: unfit for purpose and inadequate. The chair of the IPCA 991 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,160 Speaker 2: is Judge Kenneth Johnson. It's good to have you on 992 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 2: the show. What our protest is allowed to do at 993 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:38,840 Speaker 2: the moment that you don't want them doing in the future. 994 00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:43,759 Speaker 26: What we're trying to do is ensure that police officers 995 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:48,920 Speaker 26: don't have the large the world rather than difficult task 996 00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:54,520 Speaker 26: of enforcing a disparate group of criminal provisions in the 997 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:55,799 Speaker 26: context of protests, but. 998 00:51:55,960 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 27: Rather have an overarching that of legislation that enables them 999 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:10,640 Speaker 27: to identify considerably more precision when activity is stepping outside 1000 00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:13,759 Speaker 27: the bounds of what's been proposed. 1001 00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:16,720 Speaker 2: But isn't it obvious. I mean, if somebody punches somebody 1002 00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:19,200 Speaker 2: else on approachest, you can arrest them. If somebody walks 1003 00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 2: onto a highway that's a safety issue, you can arrest them. 1004 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:29,960 Speaker 26: But that's precifically the point. The outcome of punching somebody 1005 00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 26: is not going to change at all. However, if you 1006 00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 26: do give notice and it's accepted that you'll be walking 1007 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:38,880 Speaker 26: down Queen Street or up Lampton Key or something on 1008 00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:42,400 Speaker 26: a particular day, then walking down Queen Street or up 1009 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:47,440 Speaker 26: Lampton Key is not going to result in a charge 1010 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:51,080 Speaker 26: of blocking the highway or whatever the appropriate charge is 1011 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:52,480 Speaker 26: under the transport legislation. 1012 00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:55,399 Speaker 2: But that's I mean, that's the rule now right. I mean, people, 1013 00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:57,800 Speaker 2: we have the HIKOI over the Harbor Bridge that was 1014 00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,000 Speaker 2: escorted by police. That happens now, well, yes. 1015 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 26: It does, but it doesn't alter the fact that blocking 1016 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:08,120 Speaker 26: the highway can be an offense. The fact that it's 1017 00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 26: not enforced is a definition not always enforced anyway, it 1018 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 26: often is enforced. For example, the Wellington Parliamentary protest. 1019 00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:19,040 Speaker 2: What about you know, should it people be able to 1020 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:21,959 Speaker 2: pick it outside the Prime Minister's house, outside anyone's house. 1021 00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:26,120 Speaker 26: Well, that's a particular issue and you will have seen 1022 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:29,960 Speaker 26: from the report if you've read the whole thing, I 1023 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:36,680 Speaker 26: imagine you have that we identify that as an area 1024 00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:39,319 Speaker 26: where the Government of the day might like to give 1025 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 26: some consideration to whether that should be lawful or not. 1026 00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:48,000 Speaker 26: And at the moment it's drift it awful to pick 1027 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:50,080 Speaker 26: it outside the Prime Minister's house that you want to 1028 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,239 Speaker 26: whether it should be a not as not a matter 1029 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 26: for us to determine. And it's an issue that we've 1030 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:58,720 Speaker 26: raised and identified what other countries do in that area, 1031 00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:02,440 Speaker 26: and no doubt the Government of the day will give 1032 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:04,319 Speaker 26: some consideration to it in the fullness of time. 1033 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:06,400 Speaker 2: I'm sure they will. Kenneth, thank you very much for 1034 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:09,600 Speaker 2: your time. Kenneth Johnson Casey, the chair of the IPCA. 1035 00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 2: I'm not entirely convinced, I have to say, after that 1036 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 2: at twenty away from six, not entirely convinced that that 1037 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 2: would justify a completely new piece of legislation to deal 1038 00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:20,600 Speaker 2: with protests in New Zealand. 1039 00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:25,680 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southerbea's international realty, local and 1040 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 1: global exposure like no other. 1041 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,520 Speaker 2: Joining me Tonight's Stuart Nationville, my Labor minister. Hey Stuart, Hey, 1042 00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:31,839 Speaker 2: you're right. 1043 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:32,319 Speaker 26: How's it going? 1044 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:32,759 Speaker 10: Very good? 1045 00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,840 Speaker 2: Thank you. Morris Williamson's here too, all can counsel the 1046 00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:38,840 Speaker 2: former National Minister. Good evening. You've got to feel for 1047 00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 2: the police, Stuart, because there's between a rock and a 1048 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,160 Speaker 2: hard place, especially at the moment with the protest that 1049 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:46,480 Speaker 2: we're seeing, and they've got cameras on them and they're 1050 00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 2: damned if they go too hard, and they're damned if 1051 00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:49,360 Speaker 2: they go too soft. 1052 00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:54,239 Speaker 25: Well made. As a former Minister of Place, anything that 1053 00:54:54,560 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 25: can remove the ambiguity from the role of the fantastic 1054 00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:00,440 Speaker 25: men and woman on the front line, I'm support off 1055 00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:03,319 Speaker 25: And if the framework is not suitable for purpose at 1056 00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 25: the moment, then give them a new framework. I mean 1057 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:07,279 Speaker 25: I'm all for this, to be honest, man. 1058 00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:10,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, just not quite sure what's wrong with the current framework. 1059 00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:12,880 Speaker 25: Well, if there is ambiguity, and it seems as if 1060 00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:14,840 Speaker 25: there is a bit of ambiguity, if police don't know 1061 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:15,960 Speaker 25: what they can and can't do. 1062 00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:18,160 Speaker 5: Then there's always going to be gray areas. 1063 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:21,439 Speaker 25: But provide a framework which is fit for purpose makes 1064 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:23,560 Speaker 25: it a lot easier to police if police know what 1065 00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:23,960 Speaker 25: they're doing. 1066 00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,200 Speaker 2: But Morris, they should know. I mean, if you hunt someone, 1067 00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:28,120 Speaker 2: that's an offense. If you go on the road, that's 1068 00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:29,080 Speaker 2: an offense. You know what I mean? 1069 00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:31,760 Speaker 28: Yeah, I think I think anything that involves physical activity 1070 00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:35,000 Speaker 28: in terms of hurting and damaging people or property, anything 1071 00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:36,920 Speaker 28: in terms of threats and so on, I think is 1072 00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:39,279 Speaker 28: an absolute you've foregone your right to be there. You 1073 00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:41,160 Speaker 28: want to go on peacefully protest. I did it over 1074 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:44,160 Speaker 28: Vietnam War and all sorts of shit years ago, but 1075 00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:46,800 Speaker 28: we peacefully. We've had signs and you know, down with 1076 00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:49,360 Speaker 28: America and all that for over Vietnam, but you didn't 1077 00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 28: go out and start causing the riots. And the police 1078 00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:55,600 Speaker 28: should have absolutely every right to intervene when people are 1079 00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,960 Speaker 28: threatening personal safety and security. And I think they can 1080 00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:01,160 Speaker 28: do that now if they given a proper edict from 1081 00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:02,120 Speaker 28: their high command. 1082 00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 2: I think that is probably more the point, isn't it, Stuart, 1083 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:07,719 Speaker 2: That it's the top brass that maybe say, oh look 1084 00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 2: this is a bit political let's hold back. That's more 1085 00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 2: than anything, probably what stopped police from getting involved. 1086 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:16,919 Speaker 25: Oh look, I don't think that's the case. There reason 1087 00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:18,879 Speaker 25: no say that is. You know, I've known a lot 1088 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:21,000 Speaker 25: of top cops over the time, and they're very good 1089 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 25: men and a woman who put the health and safety 1090 00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:27,480 Speaker 25: of their front line officers as their numbers. Well, no, 1091 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:31,439 Speaker 25: I don't think they say you can't do this because 1092 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 25: of political ramifications. They allow their men and women on 1093 00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:35,680 Speaker 25: the front line to do what they need to do 1094 00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,440 Speaker 25: to control the situation. I agree with Morris. If you're 1095 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:41,239 Speaker 25: smacking someone, then my guid the police should be able 1096 00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:42,560 Speaker 25: to do whatever they need to be able to do. 1097 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:46,279 Speaker 25: But if the framework provides ambigulity at the moment, then 1098 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:49,080 Speaker 25: put a new framework and play so, you know, so 1099 00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:52,520 Speaker 25: it removes ambiguilty and the police know exactly what they 1100 00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:53,040 Speaker 25: need to do in. 1101 00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:55,960 Speaker 28: The worst part about it all is the number of 1102 00:56:56,040 --> 00:56:59,400 Speaker 28: cameras there. Everyone's got a camera, everyone's filming it, and 1103 00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 28: you've got sitting there thinking if I grabbed this person 1104 00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:04,960 Speaker 28: who's blocking the road, stuffing people's lives and every and 1105 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:06,960 Speaker 28: I even pushed them out of the way, that'll be 1106 00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:09,080 Speaker 28: the story exactly and I think the news media have 1107 00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:11,800 Speaker 28: got a lot to sort of answer for about making 1108 00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 28: it the big story when all you did is clear 1109 00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 28: somebody out of blocking a road and allow people to travel. 1110 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 25: I agree with you one hundred pcent. 1111 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:20,960 Speaker 2: Mars Right, guys, we'll leave this here because we have 1112 00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:22,920 Speaker 2: so much to discuss when we come back. Stuart Nash 1113 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 2: and Morris Williamson will get to the report from the 1114 00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:29,200 Speaker 2: State Services Commission. This is on your data, your census data, 1115 00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 2: your vaccination data, Where is it ending up and what 1116 00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:35,120 Speaker 2: checks and balances are in place to make sure it 1117 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 2: doesn't get in the wrong hands. 1118 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:40,800 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Sotheby's International Realty Elevate the 1119 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:42,480 Speaker 1: marketing of your Home just. 1120 00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:44,800 Speaker 2: Gone fourteen minutes away from six News Talk, said b 1121 00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:47,600 Speaker 2: Stuart Nash and Marris Williamson on the Huddle tonight. So 1122 00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 2: we've had the State Services Commission reports out today and 1123 00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:55,640 Speaker 2: it says that with the census and the vaccination data, 1124 00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:59,120 Speaker 2: that it was released to third parties and we didn't 1125 00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:01,919 Speaker 2: have proper checks and balances in place to make sure 1126 00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:05,040 Speaker 2: nothing untoward happened with it. So on the question of 1127 00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:07,280 Speaker 2: did anything untoward happen with it? The answer is, we 1128 00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:10,600 Speaker 2: actually don't know, and this report doesn't tell us. Stuart, 1129 00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:13,560 Speaker 2: I'm dying to know what you think about this bloody 1130 00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:14,640 Speaker 2: outrageous Ryan. 1131 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:16,400 Speaker 25: You know, we asked keys to give us a lot 1132 00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:19,640 Speaker 25: of data because we need the data to inform policies. 1133 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,960 Speaker 25: And if kiwis believe that their data isn't being kept safe, 1134 00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:25,360 Speaker 25: then they just won't trust the government. I think this 1135 00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 25: is outrageous. And you know the guy, the head of STATSU, 1136 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,760 Speaker 25: New Zealander, he's not standing down, he's just not seeking reappointment. 1137 00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 17: I think he should go immediately. 1138 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:36,160 Speaker 25: I mean the report is damning. The words in the 1139 00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:42,640 Speaker 25: report are things like, you know, significant failure, ignored staff concerns, 1140 00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:45,400 Speaker 25: reconflict of interest. You know, this is this is really 1141 00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:49,480 Speaker 25: really bad. And if the if the public lose confidence 1142 00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 25: in the government to keep their data safe, they just 1143 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:53,240 Speaker 25: won't give it. So I think this is this is, 1144 00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 25: this is really bad. It's outrageous. 1145 00:58:55,560 --> 00:58:57,240 Speaker 2: Laur If you think you should be gone now too. 1146 00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:02,000 Speaker 28: Hundred percent, you're dead right. The longest statistic New Zealand 1147 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:04,920 Speaker 28: fourteen years. I think I hold the portfolio and all 1148 00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:06,880 Speaker 28: I can tell you is that the integrity of that 1149 00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:11,160 Speaker 28: data is absolutely everything. People will cooperate at census time 1150 00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:13,520 Speaker 28: and so on if they know that that data is 1151 00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:16,680 Speaker 28: anonymized and never used for anything. If they think it 1152 00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:19,640 Speaker 28: leaks out, you can forget the value of any census. 1153 00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:22,080 Speaker 28: It will be completely valueless. 1154 00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:25,640 Speaker 2: Interesting that they were in terms of the White Data Trust, 1155 00:59:25,720 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 2: the money da wom A I and the Final Order 1156 00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:33,400 Speaker 2: Commissioning Agency. They've said with funding going forward that it 1157 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:36,600 Speaker 2: will not just then actually, but all third parties will 1158 00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:39,360 Speaker 2: have to meet a certain standard before they will give 1159 00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 2: them any more money in the future Stewart, and that 1160 00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:45,200 Speaker 2: will include things like, you know, your conflict dealing with 1161 00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:48,680 Speaker 2: your conflicts of interest. So that's an interesting development. 1162 00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:49,880 Speaker 10: Yeah. 1163 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:52,000 Speaker 25: Well, look, there are times when you do need to 1164 00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:54,560 Speaker 25: share data to inform decisions, there's no doubt about that. 1165 00:59:54,800 --> 00:59:59,200 Speaker 25: But if anything compromises the integrity of that, then you 1166 00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:01,120 Speaker 25: know it's got to get And I don't think these 1167 01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:03,720 Speaker 25: organizations should get any money. I mean, the report says 1168 01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:06,360 Speaker 25: it's not there to find fault, But if you read 1169 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:09,480 Speaker 25: the report and you read the recommendations that have come 1170 01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:11,400 Speaker 25: out of the report and the conclusions of the report, 1171 01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:13,960 Speaker 25: it kind of draws a bow that that this data 1172 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:16,760 Speaker 25: hasn't been used. Well, staff concerns we've taken notice of. 1173 01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:18,920 Speaker 25: Don't give these guys any more money if they if 1174 01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:20,280 Speaker 25: they're if they're lacking integrity. 1175 01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:23,960 Speaker 28: So what's totally unacceptable here? As an organization whose role 1176 01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:26,640 Speaker 28: is to promise to guarantee you the integrity of the 1177 01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:29,400 Speaker 28: data they collect from you, now saying oh, well, we'll 1178 01:00:29,440 --> 01:00:33,040 Speaker 28: look to improve our role and function. Sorry, you should 1179 01:00:33,040 --> 01:00:36,000 Speaker 28: have been absolutely at a grade role and function protection 1180 01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 28: of data right from day zero. And if you weren't, 1181 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:40,760 Speaker 28: you shouldn't have been the chief executive. 1182 01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:43,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, and well, and to be fair, it is only 1183 01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:45,680 Speaker 2: the acting one anyway, but it would be gone at 1184 01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:50,520 Speaker 2: the end of his contracts, be gone. Now are you guilty? 1185 01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:52,600 Speaker 2: And I do think it's actually anything that you should 1186 01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:54,960 Speaker 2: be ashamed of, Stuart, But are you guilty of using 1187 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:57,560 Speaker 2: your phone while watching TV? You know, double scrolling? 1188 01:00:58,600 --> 01:00:58,640 Speaker 18: No? 1189 01:00:58,760 --> 01:00:59,040 Speaker 1: I'm not. 1190 01:00:59,360 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 23: I read this. 1191 01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:03,720 Speaker 25: I mean this is just a further dumbing down of society, right, 1192 01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:06,840 Speaker 25: I don't need to be spoon feed the TV show. 1193 01:01:06,880 --> 01:01:08,680 Speaker 25: This is this is Netflix saying again, a dumb down 1194 01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:10,880 Speaker 25: shows because people are screening and they can't concentrate on 1195 01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,320 Speaker 25: two things at one time. I mean, give me a break. 1196 01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:15,360 Speaker 25: You know, every now and again I look at my 1197 01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:17,680 Speaker 25: especially from the gills playing cricket. You look at crick info, 1198 01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:19,520 Speaker 25: or you check your messages every now and again. But 1199 01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:21,960 Speaker 25: it doesn't mean I can't double. I can't look at 1200 01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:24,280 Speaker 25: the TV show well, checking my message every now and again? 1201 01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:27,360 Speaker 2: Oh my god, do you think you think you're a superman? 1202 01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:28,200 Speaker 2: You can do it all? 1203 01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:31,600 Speaker 25: But I'm not seeing me a look, but I can. 1204 01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 28: You can follow two things, well, I'm going to confess 1205 01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:35,880 Speaker 28: right here and now I can't. And the worst thing 1206 01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:38,040 Speaker 28: is I've hardly ever seen the end of any TV 1207 01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:41,000 Speaker 28: show or any movie. I get, honest, Oh this looks good. 1208 01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:42,640 Speaker 28: And then I'm on the phone and then I see 1209 01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:44,200 Speaker 28: the screen, and then some text comes in, and I 1210 01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:46,200 Speaker 28: go off and send some emails, and I come back 1211 01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:47,640 Speaker 28: and the wife because it's over. It was quite a 1212 01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:49,919 Speaker 28: good movie, and a god bugger got to wait. I'll 1213 01:01:49,920 --> 01:01:51,280 Speaker 28: try and watch it again some other times. 1214 01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:53,880 Speaker 2: At least at least it's not because you're not falling asleep. 1215 01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:56,360 Speaker 28: It's not falling asleep, that's for sure. 1216 01:01:57,760 --> 01:02:00,400 Speaker 2: It's interesting, though, isn't it, Because they're basic are going 1217 01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 2: to take out, you know, when you watch a movie 1218 01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:05,560 Speaker 2: and there's lots of action scenes when if you're just 1219 01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:09,160 Speaker 2: listening to something, those action scenes you missile everything that's happened. 1220 01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:11,920 Speaker 2: So there'll be less action and a lot more dialogue, 1221 01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:14,720 Speaker 2: which to me sounds more like a podcast. I would 1222 01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:15,840 Speaker 2: have thought that was more like party. 1223 01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:20,840 Speaker 25: What's the point. Yeah, so they're either longer or they 1224 01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:24,120 Speaker 25: have a lot more boring. I mean, you know, imagine 1225 01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:27,120 Speaker 25: Terminator as four hours as supposed to two hours. I'm 1226 01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:30,520 Speaker 25: being slightly glid, but but give us some credit. You know, 1227 01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:32,320 Speaker 25: if you can check your messages and watch the TV 1228 01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:34,400 Speaker 25: at the same time, well there's something wrong with you. 1229 01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:37,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, fair enough, Sorry Marris, no disrespect mate. 1230 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:39,920 Speaker 28: But nothing's going to say I thought Terminator was the 1231 01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:41,080 Speaker 28: Public Service Commissioner. 1232 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:44,920 Speaker 2: Well, actually, just quickly before we go, now that you've 1233 01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:48,520 Speaker 2: raised it, Morris, which departments would you put the bomb 1234 01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:49,080 Speaker 2: under first? 1235 01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:49,320 Speaker 3: Oh? 1236 01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:51,600 Speaker 28: I've got a list so long. I mean, there are 1237 01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:55,080 Speaker 28: so many trivial little units with such no gravitas and 1238 01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:57,160 Speaker 28: so on. If they've got a role and function, make 1239 01:02:57,200 --> 01:03:00,800 Speaker 28: them a particular little office within a apartment with one 1240 01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:05,240 Speaker 28: chief executive. Not forty six, was it, remember the number? Yeah, 1241 01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:09,240 Speaker 28: and in nearly forty agencies it's insane. Honestly, we've just 1242 01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:12,160 Speaker 28: every time there's been a little itch politically to scratch it, 1243 01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:15,760 Speaker 28: we've oh, we'll make a ministry of you know, small 1244 01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:18,720 Speaker 28: grain and seeds to help those people. And you go, no, 1245 01:03:18,800 --> 01:03:22,240 Speaker 28: stop this, that we are over bureaucratized with the whole problem. 1246 01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:25,600 Speaker 28: We've got way too much bureaucracy killing any innovation and 1247 01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 28: you've got to actually pull a whole lot of that 1248 01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:30,520 Speaker 28: stuff out of there. I'm delighted what Sir Brian Roach 1249 01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:33,320 Speaker 28: has at least floated. Hopefully he carries it through. 1250 01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:36,400 Speaker 25: Look Sir Brian's a legend, there's no doubt about that. 1251 01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:39,120 Speaker 25: But it's almost Monty pythonish to have a ministry for 1252 01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:40,560 Speaker 25: cutting red tape regulation. 1253 01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:45,200 Speaker 2: David, it is, it actually is. You have to you 1254 01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:46,120 Speaker 2: have to agree with that. 1255 01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:48,680 Speaker 28: Set up a new ministry for reducing ministries. 1256 01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:51,640 Speaker 2: Exactly exactly, and we've just added another one with the 1257 01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:55,760 Speaker 2: Minister of Growth, for goodness sakes, goes to the Southland. 1258 01:03:55,960 --> 01:03:58,000 Speaker 2: I don't know where does the list. 1259 01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:02,080 Speaker 28: Hoping for the Chad of Islands portfolio, but I never 1260 01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:02,600 Speaker 28: picked it up. 1261 01:04:02,680 --> 01:04:06,400 Speaker 2: So Stuart Nash, former Labor Minister Morris Williamson Auckland councilor 1262 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:09,480 Speaker 2: former national minister and falling asleep before the end of 1263 01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:12,400 Speaker 2: every movie. Eight minutes away from six News Talks EBB. 1264 01:04:13,520 --> 01:04:16,760 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duper c Allen Drive Full Show podcast 1265 01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:19,880 Speaker 1: on my Art Radio powered by News Talks EBB. 1266 01:04:21,240 --> 01:04:23,880 Speaker 2: News Talks VB. It is five minutes away from six. 1267 01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:27,680 Speaker 2: So we've had another plane incident today and we're counting. 1268 01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:30,920 Speaker 2: I'm writing in my little notebook how many plane incidents 1269 01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:34,120 Speaker 2: we've had since December. We've had quite a few. Anyway, 1270 01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:37,240 Speaker 2: this is in Toronto. A plane has flipped somehow managed 1271 01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:39,760 Speaker 2: to flip on its head on landing. We had the 1272 01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:42,640 Speaker 2: one in Washington, d C. We had in South Korea, 1273 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:45,160 Speaker 2: one hundred and seventy nine people lost their lives on 1274 01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:47,120 Speaker 2: the twenty ninth of December. We had the one on 1275 01:04:47,200 --> 01:04:50,240 Speaker 2: Christmas Day. This is the Azerbaijan crash, although that was 1276 01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:52,640 Speaker 2: shot down by the Russians, so that's slightly different case. 1277 01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:54,800 Speaker 2: But anyway, a lot of people, there's a lot of 1278 01:04:54,880 --> 01:04:57,520 Speaker 2: people I've noticed on the plane when I was traveling 1279 01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:00,440 Speaker 2: at the weekend. You know, they are gripping the rests 1280 01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:02,440 Speaker 2: on the flights. I think people are looking at the 1281 01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:04,640 Speaker 2: news and they're thinking, oh, thing's getting worse. So I 1282 01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:06,600 Speaker 2: thought i'd dig out some numbers for you today. These 1283 01:05:06,640 --> 01:05:09,840 Speaker 2: are from MIT. There's the stats from MIT. This is 1284 01:05:10,160 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 2: fatality rate commercial planes and it's per million passengers, all right, 1285 01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:18,440 Speaker 2: so to give you an idea, and this is the 1286 01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:22,040 Speaker 2: latest number, So twenty eighteen to twenty twenty two, one 1287 01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:27,840 Speaker 2: fatality per fourteen million passengers two thousand and eight to 1288 01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:30,880 Speaker 2: twenty seventeen. So the period before that it was one 1289 01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:33,880 Speaker 2: per eight million passengers. So we've come a long way. 1290 01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:35,840 Speaker 2: It's a lot safer now that it was even ten 1291 01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:39,240 Speaker 2: years ago. And if you go back even further to 1292 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:44,200 Speaker 2: the bad old days nineteen sixty eight to nineteen seventy seven, 1293 01:05:44,280 --> 01:05:47,520 Speaker 2: it was one death per three hundred and fifty thousand. 1294 01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:51,720 Speaker 2: So there you go. That's progress, isn't it. That's progress. 1295 01:05:51,800 --> 01:05:55,520 Speaker 2: I mean it's still not it's not guaranteed, but it's 1296 01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:57,200 Speaker 2: a hell of a lot safer than it used to be. 1297 01:05:57,640 --> 01:05:59,840 Speaker 2: Four minutes away from six year on news Talk ZB 1298 01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:03,680 Speaker 2: the lbi's cat rights over in Australia.

The rock star economist Paul Bloxam 1316 01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:11,040 Speaker 2: with us before top of the hour, and we're live 1317 01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:14,520 Speaker 2: in London for reaction to Starma and his bid to 1318 01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:17,000 Speaker 2: try and be the middle man between the White House 1319 01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:20,760 Speaker 2: and the EU. Right now, if they keep it green, 1320 01:07:20,840 --> 01:07:24,240 Speaker 2: they'll get the gold Fonterra is offering its dairy farmers 1321 01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:27,040 Speaker 2: an extra one to five cents per kg of milk 1322 01:07:27,120 --> 01:07:30,880 Speaker 2: solids to get the payment. Their emissions, Yes, their climate 1323 01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:33,760 Speaker 2: emissions need to be lower than they were in twenty seventeen, 1324 01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:37,680 Speaker 2: and based on how Fonterra's farms met climate criteria last season, 1325 01:07:37,720 --> 01:07:41,880 Speaker 2: they're expecting around five thousand farmers should qualify for this plus. 1326 01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:45,919 Speaker 2: But wait, there's more. If a farm's emissions are thirty 1327 01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:49,280 Speaker 2: percent lower than the average Mars and Nestley, which is 1328 01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:51,800 Speaker 2: where all this money is coming from, the contract done 1329 01:07:51,840 --> 01:07:54,680 Speaker 2: with them will drop in an additional ten to twenty 1330 01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:58,120 Speaker 2: five cents per kg of milk solids. John Stevenson is 1331 01:07:58,160 --> 01:08:00,880 Speaker 2: the chair of Fonterra's cooperative counsel me Hi, John. 1332 01:08:01,840 --> 01:08:04,880 Speaker 10: Good evening, Right, what do you make of this? I 1333 01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:07,600 Speaker 10: think it's big news for our farmers. It's certainly a 1334 01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:11,560 Speaker 10: significant amount of extra funding and recognition of their high 1335 01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:14,000 Speaker 10: quality milk, and it will make a material difference to 1336 01:08:14,120 --> 01:08:15,400 Speaker 10: those farmers that receive it. 1337 01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:19,160 Speaker 2: So put it in context. Extra one to five cents 1338 01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:21,720 Speaker 2: per kilogram of milk solids might not sound like much 1339 01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:23,760 Speaker 2: to people. What will it? Well, what could it mean 1340 01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:25,000 Speaker 2: to your average farmer? 1341 01:08:26,200 --> 01:08:28,719 Speaker 10: I think what it could mean will depend on their production. 1342 01:08:28,920 --> 01:08:30,920 Speaker 10: But for a for an average farm, you know, we 1343 01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:34,760 Speaker 10: could we could see, we could see recognition there in 1344 01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:36,840 Speaker 10: and around that, you know, sort of ten to twenty 1345 01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:39,800 Speaker 10: thousand dollars MARC depending on the achievement. And I think 1346 01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:42,679 Speaker 10: it's important to note that there there is a range 1347 01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:45,280 Speaker 10: within that, so you know that that will depend on 1348 01:08:45,560 --> 01:08:46,799 Speaker 10: on on farm practices. 1349 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:51,040 Speaker 2: What are they on farm practices? What's the criteria? 1350 01:08:52,479 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 10: So I think what we're hearing from our farmers at 1351 01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:58,479 Speaker 10: the moment is a real desire to understand more about 1352 01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:02,280 Speaker 10: these changes, what these changes that exactly do mean for them, 1353 01:09:02,960 --> 01:09:05,200 Speaker 10: and I suppose ultimately whether they are in with a 1354 01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:08,200 Speaker 10: shot at either some of this money from Fonterra or 1355 01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:13,600 Speaker 10: or more poignantly, the customer funded money. So that's what 1356 01:09:13,720 --> 01:09:17,519 Speaker 10: we're hearing from our farm is exactly those questions. But 1357 01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:20,360 Speaker 10: if we look at look at practices like stocking rate, 1358 01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:23,519 Speaker 10: the ability for our cows to be as efficient as 1359 01:09:23,560 --> 01:09:26,080 Speaker 10: they can be, making sure that they're getting in car, 1360 01:09:26,680 --> 01:09:29,720 Speaker 10: and some of those other green initiatives, my understanding is 1361 01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:33,400 Speaker 10: that they all contribute to the ultimate in number farmers. 1362 01:09:33,439 --> 01:09:35,800 Speaker 2: Surely, this is surely the way that you would like 1363 01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:39,519 Speaker 2: to see climate change handled, you know, as an organization, 1364 01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:43,200 Speaker 2: because it's incentive driven rather than whacking you with a stick. 1365 01:09:44,280 --> 01:09:46,960 Speaker 10: I think you're right in that regard. Ryan, I think 1366 01:09:47,040 --> 01:09:51,000 Speaker 10: our farmer has been asking Fonterierra for some time for 1367 01:09:51,600 --> 01:09:55,000 Speaker 10: evidence that sustainability will deliver the premiums that have been 1368 01:09:55,040 --> 01:09:58,400 Speaker 10: talked about. This is this is evidence of that which 1369 01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:00,560 Speaker 10: I mean within a co op if you need to 1370 01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:05,200 Speaker 10: balance that up against against the corporative nature of Fonterra. 1371 01:10:05,320 --> 01:10:07,479 Speaker 10: So you know, not not all of our farmers are 1372 01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:10,639 Speaker 10: going to receive this money, so that that may present 1373 01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:12,000 Speaker 10: some challenges on the other side. 1374 01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:15,000 Speaker 2: Is it enough to incentivize them to do that for 1375 01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:15,559 Speaker 2: next time? 1376 01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:17,720 Speaker 23: I think so. 1377 01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:20,920 Speaker 10: But each farm will run a cost benefit analysis of 1378 01:10:21,880 --> 01:10:27,000 Speaker 10: how they potentially might achieve those numbers and what investment 1379 01:10:27,120 --> 01:10:30,280 Speaker 10: will be required on farms. So we already have some 1380 01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:33,160 Speaker 10: right at the top end, and yeah they're doing an 1381 01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:37,320 Speaker 10: outstanding job. But for those that aren't, the pressure will 1382 01:10:37,320 --> 01:10:40,040 Speaker 10: come on Fonterra to get alongside them, show them what 1383 01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:43,679 Speaker 10: they need to do to achieve those figures and ultimately 1384 01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:45,920 Speaker 10: whether it's a value proposition worth chasing. 1385 01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 2: John, thank you, obviously not to be scoffed at John Stevenson, 1386 01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:52,559 Speaker 2: chair of Fonterra's cooperative Counsel that he represents the farmers 1387 01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 2: in the Dairy cooperative eleven minutes after six year on 1388 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:57,920 Speaker 2: News Talk s V. We'll get to brad Olson next. 1389 01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:00,400 Speaker 2: So the Ausies have had a rake cut, so twenty 1390 01:11:00,439 --> 01:11:03,280 Speaker 2: five basis points down to four point one percent over there. 1391 01:11:03,320 --> 01:11:05,840 Speaker 2: It is what they were expecting, but it's their first 1392 01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:09,360 Speaker 2: cut since twenty twenty. And we spoke to Murray Old's 1393 01:11:09,360 --> 01:11:11,439 Speaker 2: earlier he reckoned it would be. So the rates have 1394 01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:13,439 Speaker 2: gone up to the point where you're paying an extra 1395 01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:18,760 Speaker 2: fifteen hundred dollars per fortnight and your mortgages in Australia 1396 01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:22,200 Speaker 2: this will leave you or leave you of one hundred dollars. 1397 01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:25,680 Speaker 2: So it's not going to change your fortunes overnight, but 1398 01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:27,639 Speaker 2: it is certainly a step in the right direction. Anyway. 1399 01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:31,280 Speaker 2: We're going to get to brad Olsen on our fortunes 1400 01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:32,439 Speaker 2: here in New Zealand tomorrow. 1401 01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:35,880 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Dup to See Allan Drive Full Show 1402 01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:39,800 Speaker 1: podcast on iHeartRadio powered by News Talk ZEBBI. 1403 01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:43,880 Speaker 2: Six fourteen News Talk zb Adrian and All's first outing 1404 01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:46,840 Speaker 2: for the year tomorrow, just one more sleep until where 1405 01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:49,679 Speaker 2: it's pretty much expected to get a fifty basis point cut. 1406 01:11:50,160 --> 01:11:53,400 Speaker 2: So the Reserve Bank the decision tomorrow. Brad Olsen is 1407 01:11:53,439 --> 01:11:56,760 Speaker 2: the Infometrics Principal economists Brad Good Evening. Good Evening. So 1408 01:11:57,040 --> 01:11:59,880 Speaker 2: the fifty basis point camp is growing by the second 1409 01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:04,240 Speaker 2: ahead of the big day tomorrow. Are you in that camp? Yes, 1410 01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:04,840 Speaker 2: very much so. 1411 01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:06,519 Speaker 29: I mean, the Reserve Bank made a bit of a 1412 01:12:06,600 --> 01:12:09,599 Speaker 29: pretty strong rod for their own back back in November 1413 01:12:09,640 --> 01:12:12,639 Speaker 29: and said, look, it would be a pretty difficult move 1414 01:12:12,720 --> 01:12:15,360 Speaker 29: for them to not move by fifty when they look 1415 01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:18,600 Speaker 29: at the monetary policy settings. And I think part of 1416 01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:20,479 Speaker 29: that was because they had a big three month break 1417 01:12:20,600 --> 01:12:24,920 Speaker 29: before between November and this review in February. They wanted 1418 01:12:24,920 --> 01:12:26,680 Speaker 29: to give a pretty strong level of guidance to the 1419 01:12:26,760 --> 01:12:28,920 Speaker 29: market over where they're thinking was where they thought the 1420 01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:31,840 Speaker 29: direction of travel has gone. All of the data that 1421 01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:34,559 Speaker 29: we've had since then has broadly been in the same 1422 01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:38,439 Speaker 29: sort of area. You know, you've seen economic activity that declined, 1423 01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:40,960 Speaker 29: some big revisions in those numbers, but the likes of 1424 01:12:41,040 --> 01:12:44,360 Speaker 29: the unemployment rate, the likes of inflation all broadly coming 1425 01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:46,439 Speaker 29: in at the right level. So not enough of a 1426 01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:50,080 Speaker 29: shift from expectations for the Reserve Bank to shift from 1427 01:12:50,120 --> 01:12:51,519 Speaker 29: their pretty strong guidance. 1428 01:12:51,560 --> 01:12:52,519 Speaker 2: They don't normally give. 1429 01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:54,639 Speaker 29: It quite so strong, and so I think they'll stick 1430 01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:57,120 Speaker 29: to their word at this point, and then. 1431 01:12:57,080 --> 01:12:59,400 Speaker 2: The interesting part, of course, will be what happens after 1432 01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:02,360 Speaker 2: that three and a half percent was where they predicted 1433 01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:05,639 Speaker 2: they might get to by year's end, around three percent 1434 01:13:05,800 --> 01:13:08,280 Speaker 2: is neutral. Do you think that that track will change? 1435 01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:11,240 Speaker 29: Well, I think that's the thing that we're sort of 1436 01:13:11,280 --> 01:13:14,679 Speaker 29: a bit unsure about at the moment. Even financial markets 1437 01:13:14,720 --> 01:13:16,640 Speaker 29: have started to show a bit of a shift so 1438 01:13:16,800 --> 01:13:19,720 Speaker 29: far in twenty twenty five. You know, still pricing in 1439 01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:22,519 Speaker 29: an expectation that the sort of bottom would be around 1440 01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:26,320 Speaker 29: that three percent mark. But interestingly there's a bit more 1441 01:13:26,400 --> 01:13:30,040 Speaker 29: market pricing now picking a slight increase in the official 1442 01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:32,680 Speaker 29: cash rate come early twenty twenty six. And that does 1443 01:13:32,800 --> 01:13:35,240 Speaker 29: make us wonder, if you know, some of those worries 1444 01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:39,760 Speaker 29: about the likes of global inflationary pressures the lower exchange rate, 1445 01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:42,920 Speaker 29: there's a risk I think if the Reserve Bank continues 1446 01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:46,040 Speaker 29: with this expectation of more and more cuts, that they 1447 01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:48,640 Speaker 29: might well overdo it again. They might cut too much 1448 01:13:48,720 --> 01:13:51,000 Speaker 29: and then have to raise things up in twenty twenty six. 1449 01:13:51,080 --> 01:13:53,439 Speaker 29: So I think that a smarter move would be for 1450 01:13:53,520 --> 01:13:55,720 Speaker 29: the Reserve Bank to go back to their sort of 1451 01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:58,560 Speaker 29: watch and worry and weight settings where they say that 1452 01:13:59,280 --> 01:14:02,000 Speaker 29: sort of course least regrets from here as being a 1453 01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:05,080 Speaker 29: bit more data dependent and saying, look, we might well 1454 01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:07,599 Speaker 29: move a bit slower than we said before. We might 1455 01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:10,120 Speaker 29: not cut as much. And I think that overall, the 1456 01:14:10,240 --> 01:14:13,040 Speaker 29: tone I think as most appropriate as saying that there 1457 01:14:13,120 --> 01:14:15,640 Speaker 29: might not be as many further cuts on the table. 1458 01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:18,400 Speaker 2: Which means we got really hurt when they went too 1459 01:14:18,479 --> 01:14:20,599 Speaker 2: far one way, and we won't get we won't get 1460 01:14:20,600 --> 01:14:22,320 Speaker 2: the benefit of them going too far the other way. 1461 01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:26,000 Speaker 29: Well, the question here really is we do interest rates 1462 01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:28,559 Speaker 29: sort of settle now what is normal? Because I think 1463 01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:30,800 Speaker 29: anyone thinking that interest rates so you know, getting a 1464 01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:33,479 Speaker 29: mortgage of two percent is sort of you know, lost 1465 01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:35,680 Speaker 29: their vision a little bit here. I mean that was 1466 01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:39,120 Speaker 29: abnormal interest rates for abnormal times. You know, if you 1467 01:14:39,200 --> 01:14:41,960 Speaker 29: saw interest rates sort of around that sort of low 1468 01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:45,400 Speaker 29: five high four percent mark, that's probably where I think 1469 01:14:45,439 --> 01:14:47,240 Speaker 29: a lot of people, if you look back over interest 1470 01:14:47,320 --> 01:14:49,880 Speaker 29: rates over time, that'd be pretty happy with those sort 1471 01:14:49,920 --> 01:14:52,160 Speaker 29: of numbers. But of course we've got much high house 1472 01:14:52,240 --> 01:14:54,800 Speaker 29: prices than before and similar so I do think we're 1473 01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:57,160 Speaker 29: trying to figure out where the new goldilock zone is. 1474 01:14:57,479 --> 01:14:59,200 Speaker 29: But I think as well for the Reserve Bank. I 1475 01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 29: think sure all it would be a bit more appropriate 1476 01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:03,280 Speaker 29: now to go Look, we've done a lot of the 1477 01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:06,200 Speaker 29: heavy cutting that they needed to. Now it's about fine 1478 01:15:06,280 --> 01:15:08,320 Speaker 29: chuning the process a bit. So let's not be hasty 1479 01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:10,599 Speaker 29: and going capcap cut. Let's have a little bit more 1480 01:15:10,600 --> 01:15:13,040 Speaker 29: of a nuanced approach sort of vectoring and all the 1481 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:15,120 Speaker 29: data that's coming through, because there's still a lot of 1482 01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:18,920 Speaker 29: moving parts. There's tariffs, says, exchange rates, their growth around 1483 01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:20,879 Speaker 29: the world, all of that will make a difference. 1484 01:15:21,280 --> 01:15:23,679 Speaker 2: All right, Brad, thank you very much. That that's Brad Olsen, 1485 01:15:23,720 --> 01:15:26,760 Speaker 2: Informetric's principal economist on the OCI. We're going to get 1486 01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:29,160 Speaker 2: that announcement tomorrow. We are going to hear from Paul 1487 01:15:29,160 --> 01:15:31,519 Speaker 2: Bloxam as well after six thirty after News at six thirty. 1488 01:15:31,560 --> 01:15:34,479 Speaker 2: He's the rock star economist from HSBC out of Sydney. 1489 01:15:35,240 --> 01:15:38,000 Speaker 2: They've had their meeting at about four thirty this afternoon 1490 01:15:38,479 --> 01:15:40,920 Speaker 2: and announced that they're cutting by twenty five basis points 1491 01:15:40,960 --> 01:15:42,559 Speaker 2: over there. So we'll hear the latest on what their 1492 01:15:42,600 --> 01:15:45,240 Speaker 2: reasoning and rationale is very quickly. I want to run 1493 01:15:45,280 --> 01:15:47,920 Speaker 2: you through because we've had that story from the State 1494 01:15:48,000 --> 01:15:53,240 Speaker 2: Services Commission today. So obviously some questions that the media 1495 01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:56,640 Speaker 2: wanted to ask to Party Maldi, right, and so they 1496 01:15:56,720 --> 01:15:58,400 Speaker 2: go to Party Marty and they say, can we ask 1497 01:15:58,479 --> 01:16:01,720 Speaker 2: some questions now? Debbie is is on holiday in the 1498 01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:06,800 Speaker 2: Cook Islands. Convenient the co leader at Alwadi White to 1499 01:16:06,920 --> 01:16:10,719 Speaker 2: refuse to speak to the press and apparently instead Center 1500 01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:13,560 Speaker 2: Press Secretary, which is not a nice thing to do 1501 01:16:13,720 --> 01:16:16,599 Speaker 2: to a mob of waiting media, to tell the media 1502 01:16:16,720 --> 01:16:18,840 Speaker 2: all inquiries about the report should be directed to the 1503 01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:21,600 Speaker 2: party president, John Tamaherti. And here's the silly thing about it. 1504 01:16:21,680 --> 01:16:24,360 Speaker 2: Tomaheriti is the CEO of the wye PA Data Trust, 1505 01:16:24,400 --> 01:16:26,280 Speaker 2: which is of course one of the third party providers 1506 01:16:26,280 --> 01:16:28,760 Speaker 2: at the center of this whole thing. So it just 1507 01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:30,800 Speaker 2: kind of makes a mockery of it. The other thing 1508 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:33,960 Speaker 2: I wanted to mention the median age of women giving 1509 01:16:34,040 --> 01:16:36,960 Speaker 2: birth in New Zealand has reached thirty one and a 1510 01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:40,479 Speaker 2: half years in twenty twenty four. This is new stats 1511 01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:43,120 Speaker 2: out today from stats n Z. The average age thirty 1512 01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:44,920 Speaker 2: one and a half. That is the oldest since the 1513 01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:49,120 Speaker 2: records began in nineteen sixty two. It's interesting because you're 1514 01:16:49,320 --> 01:16:52,559 Speaker 2: pushing yourself closer and closer to the you know, when 1515 01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:55,960 Speaker 2: you've got the small window in which you can give birth, 1516 01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:59,479 Speaker 2: women are being pushed or pushing themselves. I suppose in 1517 01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:02,080 Speaker 2: a way closer and closer to that window. So if 1518 01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:05,720 Speaker 2: you don't find the right partner, it becomes harder and 1519 01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:08,280 Speaker 2: harder and harder, and the runway gets shorter and shorter 1520 01:17:08,320 --> 01:17:10,240 Speaker 2: and shorter. And I've got friends who have been in 1521 01:17:10,280 --> 01:17:13,920 Speaker 2: this situation. It is a very tricky situation to be indeed. Anyway, 1522 01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:16,200 Speaker 2: there you go. The average age now thirty one and 1523 01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:18,720 Speaker 2: a half. Jamie McKay next News talk EDB. 1524 01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:22,400 Speaker 5: If it's to do with money, it matters to you. 1525 01:17:22,880 --> 01:17:27,720 Speaker 1: The Business Hour with Ryan Bridge, and there's insurance and investments, 1526 01:17:28,080 --> 01:17:29,920 Speaker 1: Grow your wealth, protect your future. 1527 01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:32,000 Speaker 5: News talks EDB s. 1528 01:17:32,240 --> 01:17:34,560 Speaker 2: T two on News Talk ZB. Jamie McKay is the 1529 01:17:34,600 --> 01:17:36,360 Speaker 2: host of the Country Jamie Good Evening. 1530 01:17:37,600 --> 01:17:39,960 Speaker 8: Hey, good evening, Ryan, Hey, just before we get into it, 1531 01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:42,840 Speaker 8: us driving earlier this afternoon and I heard you talking 1532 01:17:42,960 --> 01:17:46,800 Speaker 8: to somebody about the Hallbergs tonight getting underway tonight. 1533 01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:47,360 Speaker 28: And I'm with you. 1534 01:17:47,720 --> 01:17:50,519 Speaker 8: It's got to be Lydia Cohen. I love Dame Lisa Carrington. 1535 01:17:51,080 --> 01:17:53,360 Speaker 8: We all do we all love Lydia as well, but 1536 01:17:53,880 --> 01:17:56,639 Speaker 8: when you compare the two sports, and I'm not knocking 1537 01:17:56,920 --> 01:18:00,720 Speaker 8: kayaking at all, but on a world stage, think Dame 1538 01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:02,360 Speaker 8: Lydia is she a dame yet? 1539 01:18:03,120 --> 01:18:04,759 Speaker 2: Yes she is, she's our young. 1540 01:18:05,880 --> 01:18:12,080 Speaker 8: I think Dame Lydia deserves to dame. Please the caring 1541 01:18:12,160 --> 01:18:14,519 Speaker 8: to me go just my two Bob, No, I like, 1542 01:18:15,040 --> 01:18:15,680 Speaker 8: I agree with you. 1543 01:18:15,720 --> 01:18:19,400 Speaker 2: I agree with you, And I think because the global 1544 01:18:20,320 --> 01:18:24,200 Speaker 2: you know, attention, and I guess the global nature of 1545 01:18:24,320 --> 01:18:26,120 Speaker 2: that sport as well, I think will add to the 1546 01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:29,000 Speaker 2: to the accolades that she'll probably would tonight. Anyway, we'll 1547 01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:32,280 Speaker 2: waiting to see. So you've been speaking with Winston Peters 1548 01:18:32,320 --> 01:18:34,880 Speaker 2: today and he is saying, basically, pull out of the 1549 01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:38,040 Speaker 2: Paris climate accord. Seymour is saying not yet. And then 1550 01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:40,880 Speaker 2: you've got four old luxem in the middle between between 1551 01:18:40,920 --> 01:18:41,840 Speaker 2: a rock and a hard place. 1552 01:18:42,840 --> 01:18:47,400 Speaker 8: Well. Interesting. I talked to Winston earlier this morning and 1553 01:18:47,479 --> 01:18:49,519 Speaker 8: he said, look, we should be out, and he's held 1554 01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:51,519 Speaker 8: that line for quite a while. He said, what's the 1555 01:18:51,640 --> 01:18:54,880 Speaker 8: use of being in when the US in the China 1556 01:18:55,000 --> 01:18:58,120 Speaker 8: and Russia there And that's and that's a fair point 1557 01:18:58,160 --> 01:19:00,720 Speaker 8: as well. And so I dropped Seymour text just to 1558 01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:03,200 Speaker 8: get reiterate what his position was, and he made an 1559 01:19:03,240 --> 01:19:06,599 Speaker 8: interesting comment comment. He said, not get out of it yet, 1560 01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:09,200 Speaker 8: there's at some stage in the future the cost of 1561 01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:13,120 Speaker 8: being in it will be greater than the punishment for leaving. 1562 01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:16,080 Speaker 8: So I thought that was a really interesting comment. And 1563 01:19:16,200 --> 01:19:19,479 Speaker 8: it does leave Christopher Luxe and all the nats in 1564 01:19:19,800 --> 01:19:22,240 Speaker 8: a wee bit of a sticky situation on this one, 1565 01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:26,320 Speaker 8: because the cost of complying to this Ryan is what 1566 01:19:26,520 --> 01:19:28,960 Speaker 8: twenty three or twenty four billion dollars. So we're not 1567 01:19:29,080 --> 01:19:30,760 Speaker 8: talking chump change. 1568 01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:35,040 Speaker 2: There, absolutely not. We've just had John Stevenson on about this. 1569 01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:37,960 Speaker 2: But what do you make of this Fonterra money. It's 1570 01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:40,719 Speaker 2: not Fonterra money, it's Nesle and Mars money that they've 1571 01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:44,120 Speaker 2: written into a contract where they farmers will get an 1572 01:19:44,160 --> 01:19:46,800 Speaker 2: extra top up on their payout if they're doing good 1573 01:19:46,880 --> 01:19:47,479 Speaker 2: green things. 1574 01:19:48,320 --> 01:19:53,080 Speaker 8: Well, the Nesley Mars top up is ten to twenty 1575 01:19:53,120 --> 01:19:56,360 Speaker 8: five cents a kilogram, which is I guess meaningful, But 1576 01:19:56,479 --> 01:19:59,040 Speaker 8: it's only going to go to three to three hundred 1577 01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:03,479 Speaker 8: and fifty farm Fonterra farms nationwide. That's like three percent 1578 01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:06,519 Speaker 8: of their farms. Interestingly the other ones. I don't know 1579 01:20:06,600 --> 01:20:08,839 Speaker 8: whether the John touched on this. I didn't hear the interview, 1580 01:20:09,479 --> 01:20:12,880 Speaker 8: but there, if they meet their climate criteria, they're going 1581 01:20:12,960 --> 01:20:16,160 Speaker 8: to get one to five cents per kilogram of milk 1582 01:20:16,240 --> 01:20:19,599 Speaker 8: solids to meet it. Now, that's less than half half 1583 01:20:19,640 --> 01:20:23,120 Speaker 8: a percent of your milk price based on a ten 1584 01:20:23,200 --> 01:20:26,559 Speaker 8: dollar payout. And interestingly, on my show today I smoke. 1585 01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:29,160 Speaker 8: I spoke to Kevin Smiley Barrett, Yes, the father of 1586 01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:32,160 Speaker 8: all the all Blacks and a very handy Taranaki rugby 1587 01:20:32,200 --> 01:20:35,559 Speaker 8: player himself, and he thought Mars, this was his initial 1588 01:20:35,640 --> 01:20:37,960 Speaker 8: take on it. His hot take on it was Mars 1589 01:20:38,040 --> 01:20:39,960 Speaker 8: and Nesle are doing a bit of green washing. And 1590 01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:43,479 Speaker 8: I think that's the truth from the coal face from smiling. 1591 01:20:43,720 --> 01:20:43,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1592 01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:46,840 Speaker 2: Interesting. Now, the fed farmers that we get this twice 1593 01:20:46,840 --> 01:20:49,439 Speaker 2: a year, the confidence surveys out at five o'clock tomorrow morning, 1594 01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:50,160 Speaker 2: what are you packing? 1595 01:20:51,439 --> 01:20:53,800 Speaker 8: Well, I'd like to say I haven't seen it, but 1596 01:20:53,880 --> 01:20:55,960 Speaker 8: I have. But but if I tell you Ryan, I'd 1597 01:20:55,960 --> 01:20:59,080 Speaker 8: have to shoot you. Look, I mean even before I 1598 01:20:59,439 --> 01:21:02,479 Speaker 8: glanced at and I've got to respect the embargo. Look 1599 01:21:02,479 --> 01:21:05,240 Speaker 8: at farmers aren't happy this time around, they will have 1600 01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:09,479 Speaker 8: earned they're often unjust tag for being monus. The planets 1601 01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:12,640 Speaker 8: are really aligning for farmers at the moment. We've got 1602 01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:17,360 Speaker 8: good commodity prices almost right across the board. Walls obviously 1603 01:21:18,840 --> 01:21:21,240 Speaker 8: a bit of an outlier strong all I'm talking about, 1604 01:21:21,280 --> 01:21:24,720 Speaker 8: but everything else as pretty good. Interest rates are coming down. 1605 01:21:25,360 --> 01:21:28,080 Speaker 8: They've got a pretty user friendly government in terms of 1606 01:21:28,240 --> 01:21:32,760 Speaker 8: regulation and non farm costs. So I'm expecting Ryan read 1607 01:21:32,840 --> 01:21:35,839 Speaker 8: between the lines on this one. A pretty positive farmer 1608 01:21:35,920 --> 01:21:38,920 Speaker 8: confidence survey which will be due out at five am 1609 01:21:39,000 --> 01:21:40,559 Speaker 8: tomorrow from Federated Farmers. 1610 01:21:40,760 --> 01:21:42,479 Speaker 2: Nice one. I think you've given us a good wink 1611 01:21:42,760 --> 01:21:45,479 Speaker 2: and a nudge thee. Jamie McKay hosted the Country on 1612 01:21:45,560 --> 01:21:48,560 Speaker 2: Newstalk Seb twenty six. Minutes after six a couple of 1613 01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:51,040 Speaker 2: texts saying, Ryan, did you mean median or did you 1614 01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:54,400 Speaker 2: mean average birth age? Because Statsnz's had a number out today. 1615 01:21:54,840 --> 01:21:58,719 Speaker 2: I meant median. Apologies, Helen. I think I said median, 1616 01:21:58,760 --> 01:22:01,840 Speaker 2: and then I said average, which is a pretty average 1617 01:22:01,880 --> 01:22:04,439 Speaker 2: thing to do for you, Helen, I apologize. So this 1618 01:22:04,640 --> 01:22:07,519 Speaker 2: is the median age of women giving birth in New 1619 01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:10,280 Speaker 2: Zealand has reached thirty one and a half years old. 1620 01:22:10,479 --> 01:22:12,880 Speaker 2: For twenty twenty four, You're on news Talk, said B. 1621 01:22:13,040 --> 01:22:14,240 Speaker 2: We're live to Osi next. 1622 01:22:14,479 --> 01:22:26,200 Speaker 22: Buddy, Buddy. 1623 01:22:23,080 --> 01:22:25,320 Speaker 5: Crunching the numbers and getting the results. 1624 01:22:25,640 --> 01:22:29,720 Speaker 1: It's Ryan Bridge with the Business Hour and mass insurance 1625 01:22:29,800 --> 01:22:30,600 Speaker 1: and investments. 1626 01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:38,800 Speaker 5: Grew your Wealth, Protect Your Future.

We've just been discussing Winston Peters and David 1633 01:22:56,640 --> 01:23:00,599 Speaker 2: Seymour and the slightly aligned views on the Paris Acord 1634 01:23:00,680 --> 01:23:04,040 Speaker 2: with Jamie McKay from the Country. I like this text 1635 01:23:04,439 --> 01:23:06,760 Speaker 2: a Texter who has said, why is it Winston and 1636 01:23:06,960 --> 01:23:10,639 Speaker 2: Seymour not Peter's and Seymour. It's a very good question. 1637 01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:12,760 Speaker 2: I think the answer and this is why do we 1638 01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:14,479 Speaker 2: refer to them in that way? I think the answer 1639 01:23:14,720 --> 01:23:19,000 Speaker 2: is in the name, right, Winston is a relatively unusual name. 1640 01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:23,679 Speaker 2: Seymour it stands out whereas Peter's. I mean, how many 1641 01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:27,840 Speaker 2: last names of Peter's do you know of? And David. 1642 01:23:27,920 --> 01:23:29,400 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, if you called them David, you 1643 01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:31,040 Speaker 2: would be like, who are you talking about. There are 1644 01:23:31,080 --> 01:23:33,799 Speaker 2: so many Davids in Parliament, let alone in the general population. 1645 01:23:33,880 --> 01:23:36,639 Speaker 2: I think that's why we do it. Twenty four away 1646 01:23:36,680 --> 01:23:41,759 Speaker 2: from seven Bryan Bridge, it's some interest rate relief for Ossie's. Finally, 1647 01:23:41,880 --> 01:23:43,960 Speaker 2: the RBA today cutting the official cash rate for the 1648 01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:47,160 Speaker 2: first time since twenty twenty. Governor Michelle Bullock, explaining the 1649 01:23:47,320 --> 01:23:49,120 Speaker 2: quarter percent cut to four point one percent. 1650 01:23:49,479 --> 01:23:52,720 Speaker 31: It's clear that higher interest rates have been working as anticipated, 1651 01:23:52,880 --> 01:23:57,800 Speaker 31: restricting economic activity and putting downward presser on inflation. The 1652 01:23:57,920 --> 01:24:00,519 Speaker 31: Board judges it's time to reduce a little bit of 1653 01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:04,479 Speaker 31: that restrictiveness. But we cannot declare victory on inflation just yet. 1654 01:24:05,160 --> 01:24:07,360 Speaker 31: It is not good enough for inflation to be back 1655 01:24:07,400 --> 01:24:10,280 Speaker 31: in the target range temporarily. The Board needs to be 1656 01:24:10,400 --> 01:24:13,480 Speaker 31: confident that is returning to the target range sustainably. 1657 01:24:13,880 --> 01:24:18,920 Speaker 2: Paul Blocks from HSBC, good evening, Good to have you back. Congratulations, 1658 01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:21,880 Speaker 2: you picked that right, we did, We got that one. 1659 01:24:21,880 --> 01:24:24,920 Speaker 21: Right, so I'm definitely happy about that. You know, the 1660 01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:28,120 Speaker 21: cut was part of it, but the real interesting part 1661 01:24:28,360 --> 01:24:31,880 Speaker 21: was just how cautious they were, how much they're really 1662 01:24:31,960 --> 01:24:35,320 Speaker 21: giving guidance that this is one move, but actually they're 1663 01:24:35,360 --> 01:24:38,200 Speaker 21: going to need more evidence of inflation continuing to fall 1664 01:24:38,520 --> 01:24:41,080 Speaker 21: before they would consider cutting again. So we don't think 1665 01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:44,200 Speaker 21: that we're thinking that they're going to cut anytime soon again, 1666 01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:45,720 Speaker 21: that it's going to be quite a few months before 1667 01:24:45,760 --> 01:24:46,960 Speaker 21: we get another cut from the RBA. 1668 01:24:47,360 --> 01:24:49,240 Speaker 2: Too early to celebrate. I mean, if you look at 1669 01:24:49,320 --> 01:24:51,960 Speaker 2: we were speaking to Mariol's there Ossie correspondent earlier, he said, 1670 01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:54,120 Speaker 2: it's about one hundred dollars is it one hundred dollars 1671 01:24:54,160 --> 01:24:57,559 Speaker 2: a fortnight, you know, on your average mortgage. And when 1672 01:24:57,600 --> 01:24:59,840 Speaker 2: the rates went up, it was, you know, fifteen hundred 1673 01:24:59,840 --> 01:25:01,720 Speaker 2: dollar or whack to your wallets. So it's come back 1674 01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:03,360 Speaker 2: a little bit, but it's not you know, it's not 1675 01:25:03,479 --> 01:25:04,160 Speaker 2: game changing. 1676 01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:05,439 Speaker 10: Well that's right. 1677 01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:07,800 Speaker 21: So the RBA lifted its cash right by four hundred 1678 01:25:07,800 --> 01:25:10,560 Speaker 21: and twenty five basis points. They stopped doing that in 1679 01:25:11,040 --> 01:25:13,240 Speaker 21: November of twenty twenty three. That was the last hike 1680 01:25:13,320 --> 01:25:15,800 Speaker 21: that was that arrived and today they took back twenty 1681 01:25:15,880 --> 01:25:17,920 Speaker 21: five basis points at that four hundred and twenty five, 1682 01:25:18,360 --> 01:25:20,640 Speaker 21: So you know, it's it's as the governor said in 1683 01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:23,880 Speaker 21: the recording, you just played. You know, monetary policy is 1684 01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:26,920 Speaker 21: still restrictive, it's just a little bit less restrictive, and 1685 01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:29,479 Speaker 21: they feel they can make this move because inflation is 1686 01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:31,800 Speaker 21: coming down. But then it's still not back where they 1687 01:25:31,840 --> 01:25:34,120 Speaker 21: need to be in terms of inflation. It's still not 1688 01:25:34,320 --> 01:25:36,960 Speaker 21: quite at the target. And the other thing, of course, 1689 01:25:37,040 --> 01:25:40,040 Speaker 21: for Australia is not only is the you know, the 1690 01:25:40,120 --> 01:25:43,200 Speaker 21: inflation coming down, but we're doing this within a labor 1691 01:25:43,280 --> 01:25:45,679 Speaker 21: market that's still very strong. The unemployment rate is still 1692 01:25:45,760 --> 01:25:48,200 Speaker 21: very low. It's it's coming down a little bit in 1693 01:25:48,240 --> 01:25:50,000 Speaker 21: the last couple of months, in the last few months 1694 01:25:50,040 --> 01:25:52,639 Speaker 21: as well, and so we're sort of close to full employment. 1695 01:25:52,680 --> 01:25:56,559 Speaker 21: If you've got a fully employed economy and inflation's coming 1696 01:25:56,640 --> 01:25:59,160 Speaker 21: down gradually, the RBA hasn't got a lot of scope 1697 01:25:59,400 --> 01:26:01,320 Speaker 21: to be able to lower interest rates quickly. Of course, 1698 01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:03,920 Speaker 21: that's in a very big contrast to what's going on 1699 01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:07,400 Speaker 21: in New Zealand, where the unemployment rates risen quite a lot, 1700 01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:09,800 Speaker 21: inflations come right back to target and the RB and 1701 01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:12,920 Speaker 21: Z has already delivered a lot of easing and we 1702 01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:15,840 Speaker 21: think tomorrow they'll probably deliver another fifty basis points cut 1703 01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:16,280 Speaker 21: as well. 1704 01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:21,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the question is what do they do after that? So, 1705 01:26:21,439 --> 01:26:24,280 Speaker 2: just coming back to the Governor Michelle Bollock for a second, 1706 01:26:24,479 --> 01:26:27,400 Speaker 2: is she made a new comment on the market pricing 1707 01:26:27,520 --> 01:26:28,679 Speaker 2: in future rate cuts. 1708 01:26:29,920 --> 01:26:32,800 Speaker 21: Well, absolutely, actually today it was very explicit. Not only 1709 01:26:32,880 --> 01:26:34,519 Speaker 21: did she say it, but if you look at the 1710 01:26:34,640 --> 01:26:39,200 Speaker 21: RBA's own forecasts, they are only forecasting that their main measure, 1711 01:26:39,240 --> 01:26:41,120 Speaker 21: the one they focus on, it gets back to two 1712 01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:43,880 Speaker 21: point seven percent and then track cybway so it doesn't 1713 01:26:43,920 --> 01:26:45,800 Speaker 21: actually get to two and a half percent in their 1714 01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:48,439 Speaker 21: own forecasts. And the reason why it doesn't get all 1715 01:26:48,479 --> 01:26:51,400 Speaker 21: the way back down is because their work, they're working 1716 01:26:51,479 --> 01:26:55,160 Speaker 21: assumption is market pricing, and so market pricing is assuming 1717 01:26:55,200 --> 01:26:58,040 Speaker 21: another eighty four or exsuming eighty five basis points worth 1718 01:26:58,040 --> 01:27:01,880 Speaker 21: of cuts altogether. And the Governor delicitly said we think 1719 01:27:02,160 --> 01:27:04,519 Speaker 21: at this point in time that if we were to 1720 01:27:04,640 --> 01:27:07,800 Speaker 21: deliver that many cuts, inflation won't actually get back to 1721 01:27:07,840 --> 01:27:09,760 Speaker 21: two and a half. So they were very explicit about 1722 01:27:09,840 --> 01:27:12,640 Speaker 21: saying the market is pricing in too much easing at 1723 01:27:12,680 --> 01:27:13,040 Speaker 21: the moment. 1724 01:27:13,479 --> 01:27:16,479 Speaker 2: Interesting, what do you reckon about where we end up 1725 01:27:16,560 --> 01:27:20,000 Speaker 2: by years in here in New Zealand, Paul, Because initially 1726 01:27:20,040 --> 01:27:22,400 Speaker 2: the Reserve Bank here was talking about, you know, three 1727 01:27:22,439 --> 01:27:25,280 Speaker 2: and a half odd percent, but we know that neutral 1728 01:27:25,400 --> 01:27:27,320 Speaker 2: is closer to three percent, and they were talking about 1729 01:27:27,360 --> 01:27:28,639 Speaker 2: three and a half by the end of the year. 1730 01:27:28,680 --> 01:27:30,160 Speaker 2: Do you think they're going to have to revise that? 1731 01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:32,960 Speaker 21: So we think you're going to get a fifty basis 1732 01:27:32,960 --> 01:27:35,240 Speaker 21: point cut tomorrow from the RBNZ, and then we think 1733 01:27:35,960 --> 01:27:39,160 Speaker 21: that we're going to get three more RBNZ twenty five 1734 01:27:39,200 --> 01:27:42,120 Speaker 21: basis point moved over the subsequent meetings, and that would 1735 01:27:42,120 --> 01:27:44,080 Speaker 21: get you down to three percent on the cash rate. 1736 01:27:44,160 --> 01:27:47,479 Speaker 21: That's our central case, our working assumption for what is 1737 01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:50,479 Speaker 21: going to be delivered in New Zealand. So this is 1738 01:27:50,520 --> 01:27:52,559 Speaker 21: the last big cut and then the ones that follow 1739 01:27:52,640 --> 01:27:54,720 Speaker 21: will be smaller, And of course the question is going 1740 01:27:54,760 --> 01:27:56,600 Speaker 21: to be do they actually get to deliver all of 1741 01:27:56,680 --> 01:27:59,280 Speaker 21: those cuts, because the other thing is although New Zealand 1742 01:27:59,360 --> 01:28:03,080 Speaker 21: has had a big last year, they're starting these starting 1743 01:28:03,280 --> 01:28:05,599 Speaker 21: these signs that things are picking up. The PMI is improving, 1744 01:28:05,680 --> 01:28:08,400 Speaker 21: dairy prices are high, there's been a turnaround in some 1745 01:28:08,479 --> 01:28:11,080 Speaker 21: of the sentiment indicators as well, and so you know, 1746 01:28:11,320 --> 01:28:14,000 Speaker 21: how much more does the RBNZ need to deliver. Well, 1747 01:28:14,040 --> 01:28:17,280 Speaker 21: we think fifty tomorrow and then three more twenty fives. 1748 01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:19,439 Speaker 21: But the question is going to be do they need 1749 01:28:19,520 --> 01:28:21,560 Speaker 21: to need to deliver all of that to get the 1750 01:28:21,600 --> 01:28:24,040 Speaker 21: economy to turn around, given it's already starting to turn around. 1751 01:28:24,200 --> 01:28:27,040 Speaker 2: Brilliant stuff, Paul, Thank you. Paul Blox and HSBC chief 1752 01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:29,360 Speaker 2: economists over in Australia. Twenty away from the seven you're 1753 01:28:29,400 --> 01:28:31,120 Speaker 2: on news talks, there'd be coming up we Life to 1754 01:28:31,160 --> 01:28:32,080 Speaker 2: London with Indo Brady. 1755 01:28:32,360 --> 01:28:36,479 Speaker 1: Whether it's macro micro or just playing economics. It's all 1756 01:28:36,560 --> 01:28:40,639 Speaker 1: on the business hours with Ryan Bridge and theirs. Insurance 1757 01:28:40,760 --> 01:28:45,200 Speaker 1: and investments, Grow your wealth, Protect your future, Youth talks'd. 1758 01:28:44,760 --> 01:28:48,080 Speaker 2: Be seventeen to seven news talks. There'd big Kir Starmer 1759 01:28:48,200 --> 01:28:51,439 Speaker 2: is out and about. He's been in Paris with European 1760 01:28:51,560 --> 01:28:54,200 Speaker 2: leaders and he is heading to Washington next week. Did 1761 01:28:54,200 --> 01:28:56,880 Speaker 2: you meet with the President Trump? In the Brady's our 1762 01:28:57,000 --> 01:28:58,880 Speaker 2: UK correspondent. We want to get the latest from him. 1763 01:28:58,960 --> 01:28:59,840 Speaker 2: High end of good evening. 1764 01:29:00,720 --> 01:29:02,080 Speaker 4: Hey, Ryan, got to speak to you again. 1765 01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:05,840 Speaker 2: So Starner is he trying to be the go between 1766 01:29:05,920 --> 01:29:08,000 Speaker 2: between Washington and the. 1767 01:29:08,080 --> 01:29:14,200 Speaker 4: EU exactly, yes, and Ukraine and just trying to I 1768 01:29:14,280 --> 01:29:18,040 Speaker 4: think provide some security for Europe, or at least to 1769 01:29:18,120 --> 01:29:21,040 Speaker 4: make sure that Europe's voice is heard, because what we're 1770 01:29:21,080 --> 01:29:25,360 Speaker 4: seeing is Europe being sidelined about an issue in Europe. 1771 01:29:25,840 --> 01:29:28,680 Speaker 4: And it's shocking. I mean everything over the weekend that 1772 01:29:28,800 --> 01:29:32,400 Speaker 4: happens so so quickly. What we know today the Americans 1773 01:29:32,400 --> 01:29:35,160 Speaker 4: will meet with some sort of a Russian delegation in 1774 01:29:35,280 --> 01:29:38,280 Speaker 4: Saudi Arabia. And the big fear was that this was 1775 01:29:38,320 --> 01:29:41,560 Speaker 4: a carve up, that Europe was being completely sidelined to 1776 01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:44,839 Speaker 4: be known that Europe at the table defending Ukraine's interests. 1777 01:29:45,160 --> 01:29:47,599 Speaker 4: So Starmer is stepping up. We know he has booked 1778 01:29:47,640 --> 01:29:49,839 Speaker 4: in a trip to see Trump next week in Washington, 1779 01:29:50,320 --> 01:29:52,880 Speaker 4: and in addition to that, Starmer came away from Paris 1780 01:29:53,000 --> 01:29:55,360 Speaker 4: last night saying that he will convene a meeting of 1781 01:29:55,439 --> 01:29:59,719 Speaker 4: European leaders in London after Starmer gets back from DC 1782 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:03,439 Speaker 4: next week. So this is a seismic week for Ukraine 1783 01:30:03,520 --> 01:30:04,120 Speaker 4: and indeed for. 1784 01:30:04,200 --> 01:30:08,000 Speaker 2: Europe and for Starma. Right, it's quite interesting watching this 1785 01:30:08,120 --> 01:30:10,320 Speaker 2: play out. Do you know one thing I noticed when 1786 01:30:10,360 --> 01:30:13,120 Speaker 2: he was delivering his statement after the meeting, And I 1787 01:30:13,200 --> 01:30:15,040 Speaker 2: know this is a small thing in there, but he 1788 01:30:15,240 --> 01:30:17,640 Speaker 2: was reading it from a piece of paper and I 1789 01:30:17,760 --> 01:30:20,840 Speaker 2: just thought, you know, can you not think on your feet. 1790 01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:26,479 Speaker 4: Look, he's a lawyer. Everyone criticizes the guy. He's a 1791 01:30:26,600 --> 01:30:30,080 Speaker 4: lawyer who became a politician. And I think he's suffering 1792 01:30:30,160 --> 01:30:34,240 Speaker 4: what I call TBS here Tony Blair syndrome. Everyone thinks 1793 01:30:34,360 --> 01:30:37,160 Speaker 4: labor leader. You know, Blair could walk into a room, 1794 01:30:37,280 --> 01:30:40,080 Speaker 4: no notes, no paper. He was the biggest brain in 1795 01:30:40,160 --> 01:30:43,080 Speaker 4: the room. He was the best communicator I've ever seen 1796 01:30:43,160 --> 01:30:44,080 Speaker 4: this country produce. 1797 01:30:44,520 --> 01:30:45,599 Speaker 5: And Starmer isn't. 1798 01:30:45,840 --> 01:30:50,519 Speaker 4: Starmer is a methodical lawyer who likes detail. He likes 1799 01:30:50,600 --> 01:30:53,880 Speaker 4: things written down rightly or wrongly. But but look, the 1800 01:30:53,960 --> 01:30:57,000 Speaker 4: alternative was Boris Johnson making it up as you go along, 1801 01:30:57,040 --> 01:30:57,559 Speaker 4: and look at. 1802 01:30:57,520 --> 01:31:01,479 Speaker 2: That ended European lead and skeptical of about his boots 1803 01:31:01,560 --> 01:31:04,719 Speaker 2: on the ground claim though right, yes. 1804 01:31:04,840 --> 01:31:08,640 Speaker 4: So what he offered because he's quite aware Trump is 1805 01:31:08,680 --> 01:31:11,040 Speaker 4: a transactional president and if you're going to go to 1806 01:31:11,120 --> 01:31:14,080 Speaker 4: the Trump table, you need to bring something to the deal. 1807 01:31:14,520 --> 01:31:17,360 Speaker 4: And Starmer's idea was that he would offer British troops 1808 01:31:17,800 --> 01:31:21,679 Speaker 4: in their thousands to work as peacekeepers, that they would 1809 01:31:21,720 --> 01:31:24,639 Speaker 4: be on the border between Ukraine and Russia. He didn't 1810 01:31:24,680 --> 01:31:26,720 Speaker 4: say for how long. That's the big fear here, that 1811 01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:28,680 Speaker 4: Mission Creep would set in and this could be a 1812 01:31:28,840 --> 01:31:31,600 Speaker 4: very long time. So that was Starmer's idea that they 1813 01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:35,040 Speaker 4: would provide a European security force kind of blue helmets 1814 01:31:35,080 --> 01:31:39,680 Speaker 4: or white helmets whatever, but ultimately neutral peacekeepers and all 1815 01:31:39,720 --> 01:31:43,160 Speaker 4: off Schultz, the German chancellor for probably another four or 1816 01:31:43,200 --> 01:31:46,000 Speaker 4: five days until the election this weekend, he said that 1817 01:31:46,120 --> 01:31:49,360 Speaker 4: he was getting irritated by these kind of conversations. He 1818 01:31:49,400 --> 01:31:52,200 Speaker 4: does not like it at all. The Spanish were not 1819 01:31:52,280 --> 01:31:56,040 Speaker 4: exactly forthcoming either, So it may well be that Britain 1820 01:31:56,280 --> 01:31:59,599 Speaker 4: just provides the peacekeeping troops. We don't know, but Starmer's 1821 01:31:59,680 --> 01:32:01,000 Speaker 4: quite a where that if you're going to go talk 1822 01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:02,880 Speaker 4: to Trump, you need to bring him something. 1823 01:32:03,320 --> 01:32:05,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you need to have your numbers sort of 1824 01:32:05,240 --> 01:32:07,519 Speaker 2: out hit. You know how many you can actually are 1825 01:32:07,560 --> 01:32:12,000 Speaker 2: you capable of delivering more bad news for Jim Rettliff. 1826 01:32:12,080 --> 01:32:14,760 Speaker 2: This is Manchester United decide gym. What's happened now? 1827 01:32:16,240 --> 01:32:20,200 Speaker 4: So as he cuts costs absolutely everywhere in his sporting empires, 1828 01:32:20,240 --> 01:32:23,559 Speaker 4: you know only too well in New Zealand, Manchester United 1829 01:32:23,680 --> 01:32:26,400 Speaker 4: are not being spared. There are costs going, there are 1830 01:32:26,520 --> 01:32:30,479 Speaker 4: jobs going, redundancies and on the pitch everything is going wrong. 1831 01:32:30,720 --> 01:32:33,400 Speaker 4: They lost again at the weekend. Who are really average 1832 01:32:33,439 --> 01:32:38,040 Speaker 4: Tottenham Hotspur side. However, they have one player, a Brazilian international. 1833 01:32:38,439 --> 01:32:42,080 Speaker 4: Cassie Miro is his name, and this guy was amazing 1834 01:32:42,520 --> 01:32:44,640 Speaker 4: was being the operative word here when he was at 1835 01:32:44,680 --> 01:32:48,240 Speaker 4: Real Madrid. United brought him in for the transfer fee 1836 01:32:48,240 --> 01:32:50,160 Speaker 4: of one hundred and forty million dollars a couple of 1837 01:32:50,280 --> 01:32:54,680 Speaker 4: years ago. He is reportedly on six hundred thousand n 1838 01:32:54,880 --> 01:32:58,439 Speaker 4: Z dollars a week to kick a soccer ball round. 1839 01:32:59,000 --> 01:33:01,200 Speaker 4: Now it's quite clear he's not at the standard he 1840 01:33:01,360 --> 01:33:03,760 Speaker 4: used to be. The whisper has been United have been 1841 01:33:03,800 --> 01:33:06,280 Speaker 4: trying to offload him to Saudi Arabias if any of 1842 01:33:06,320 --> 01:33:08,479 Speaker 4: the clubs were crazy money, just to get his wage 1843 01:33:08,520 --> 01:33:11,920 Speaker 4: off the bill. Well, step forward Cassie Mirro and he 1844 01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:14,000 Speaker 4: has let it be known he has eighteen months left 1845 01:33:14,040 --> 01:33:17,400 Speaker 4: on his contract. He's very happy at Manchester and he's 1846 01:33:17,439 --> 01:33:20,320 Speaker 4: going to see out his contract. So Jim Ratcliffe will 1847 01:33:20,360 --> 01:33:22,920 Speaker 4: be paying him six hundred k a week for the 1848 01:33:23,000 --> 01:33:24,759 Speaker 4: next eighteen months gold figure. 1849 01:33:25,200 --> 01:33:27,120 Speaker 2: That is a lot of money, isn't it. I suppose 1850 01:33:27,200 --> 01:33:29,000 Speaker 2: for Jim Retlif it's not a lot of money. But 1851 01:33:29,120 --> 01:33:31,519 Speaker 2: for you and I goodness me in the thank you, I. 1852 01:33:31,560 --> 01:33:33,720 Speaker 4: Play for half that, Ryan, I play for half that, 1853 01:33:34,080 --> 01:33:35,519 Speaker 4: but for Liverpool. 1854 01:33:36,360 --> 01:33:38,840 Speaker 2: In the think in the Brady, a UK correspondent with us, 1855 01:33:38,880 --> 01:33:41,320 Speaker 2: it is twelve minutes away from seven here on news 1856 01:33:41,400 --> 01:33:43,800 Speaker 2: Talk to CB. You know, I was looking the other 1857 01:33:43,880 --> 01:33:47,200 Speaker 2: day somebody messaged the show on Monday. What is the 1858 01:33:47,280 --> 01:33:51,120 Speaker 2: day today? Goodness me, it's Tuesday. Tomorrow's Wednesday. Get it together. 1859 01:33:51,680 --> 01:33:54,680 Speaker 2: So somebody message the show on Monday and said, do 1860 01:33:54,920 --> 01:33:58,640 Speaker 2: we have terroriffs on other countries? Because we are very 1861 01:33:58,760 --> 01:34:01,160 Speaker 2: quick to point the finger and say that we should. 1862 01:34:01,200 --> 01:34:03,200 Speaker 2: You know, Trump's a bad man. You should be dropping tariffs, 1863 01:34:03,240 --> 01:34:05,519 Speaker 2: shouldn't be imposing terraffs, et cetera, et cetera. We want 1864 01:34:05,560 --> 01:34:10,040 Speaker 2: a free trade world. Well, yes, we do have some tariffs, 1865 01:34:10,080 --> 01:34:12,479 Speaker 2: and that they're not massive. I will caution you. We 1866 01:34:12,560 --> 01:34:16,680 Speaker 2: obviously have tariffs, well, excise duties on booze and cigarettes 1867 01:34:16,680 --> 01:34:18,880 Speaker 2: and stuff, but those are applied equally whether we import 1868 01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:22,280 Speaker 2: something into New Zealander, whether we produce it domestically. Those 1869 01:34:22,320 --> 01:34:27,880 Speaker 2: excise duties are put on most like passenger vehicles for example, cars, 1870 01:34:28,479 --> 01:34:33,840 Speaker 2: all computer software, hardware, they're all tariff free. And most 1871 01:34:34,640 --> 01:34:37,240 Speaker 2: terriffs that we do have are tiny. We're talking zero 1872 01:34:37,360 --> 01:34:40,600 Speaker 2: to ten percent, But we do have tariffs. We have 1873 01:34:40,800 --> 01:34:46,560 Speaker 2: tariffs on clothing, footwear and carpeting. Now I'm assuming this 1874 01:34:46,720 --> 01:34:49,160 Speaker 2: was to protect manufacturing in New Zealand back in the day, 1875 01:34:49,840 --> 01:34:51,519 Speaker 2: and I was trying to figure out why do we 1876 01:34:51,600 --> 01:34:54,960 Speaker 2: still have them now? There was reference back in two 1877 01:34:55,000 --> 01:35:00,600 Speaker 2: thousand and nine under the previous national government wanting to 1878 01:35:00,760 --> 01:35:04,720 Speaker 2: keep small amounts of tariffs on should we need to 1879 01:35:04,880 --> 01:35:07,600 Speaker 2: negotiate a free trade deal in the future so that 1880 01:35:07,680 --> 01:35:10,080 Speaker 2: we have something to offer up like, oh, yeah, we've 1881 01:35:10,479 --> 01:35:13,240 Speaker 2: we've got a five percent tariff on shoes. We'll get 1882 01:35:13,320 --> 01:35:14,800 Speaker 2: rid of that if you give us X Y Z 1883 01:35:14,960 --> 01:35:19,560 Speaker 2: on our beef and milk powder. So anyway, I'm not 1884 01:35:19,640 --> 01:35:22,799 Speaker 2: quite sure why they're there, but we do have tariffs 1885 01:35:22,840 --> 01:35:25,880 Speaker 2: on some pretty strange things. You know, your Nike shoes, 1886 01:35:25,920 --> 01:35:28,519 Speaker 2: for example, apparently have a tariff on them. Ten to 1887 01:35:28,640 --> 01:35:29,679 Speaker 2: seven News Talks EBB. 1888 01:35:30,920 --> 01:35:33,439 Speaker 1: It's the Heather two per Se Alan Drive Full Show 1889 01:35:33,560 --> 01:35:37,000 Speaker 1: podcast on iHeartRadio powered by Newstalks EBB. 1890 01:35:39,160 --> 01:35:41,920 Speaker 2: Seven Away from seven News Talks EBB. If you're somebody 1891 01:35:41,920 --> 01:35:44,760 Speaker 2: who hates the gym and you hate going to on 1892 01:35:44,920 --> 01:35:47,680 Speaker 2: walks and going for runs and keeping fit, basically well, 1893 01:35:47,760 --> 01:35:49,560 Speaker 2: have I got a story for you. So it's just 1894 01:35:49,680 --> 01:35:52,040 Speaker 2: a small study, and I want to caution you, but 1895 01:35:52,040 --> 01:35:54,040 Speaker 2: it's a small study. It's only forty eight people who 1896 01:35:54,040 --> 01:35:57,360 Speaker 2: are invited to take part in a laboratory test where 1897 01:35:57,360 --> 01:35:59,800 Speaker 2: they were told to dance and whatever style they wanted to. 1898 01:36:00,320 --> 01:36:03,400 Speaker 2: It's from Northwestern University in the United States, and they 1899 01:36:03,479 --> 01:36:05,479 Speaker 2: wanted to look at whether you can dance. How much 1900 01:36:05,560 --> 01:36:07,960 Speaker 2: do you have to dance in a day in order 1901 01:36:08,080 --> 01:36:12,439 Speaker 2: to meet your minimum recommended minutes of moderate to vigorous 1902 01:36:12,600 --> 01:36:15,680 Speaker 2: physical activity or exercise per week, which by the way, 1903 01:36:15,880 --> 01:36:17,840 Speaker 2: is one hundred and fifty minutes. So if you're not 1904 01:36:17,920 --> 01:36:19,920 Speaker 2: doing one hundred and fifty minutes of moderate to vigorous 1905 01:36:19,920 --> 01:36:22,880 Speaker 2: physical activity a week, you're probably gonna dice in. All right. 1906 01:36:22,920 --> 01:36:24,320 Speaker 2: I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but 1907 01:36:24,400 --> 01:36:27,840 Speaker 2: that's it. Anyway they have said you already need to 1908 01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:30,639 Speaker 2: do is twenty minutes of dancing a day, which actually 1909 01:36:30,840 --> 01:36:33,280 Speaker 2: is quite a lot because I don't know about you, 1910 01:36:33,439 --> 01:36:37,799 Speaker 2: but when I dance it is vigorous. It's five minutes, 1911 01:36:37,840 --> 01:36:40,800 Speaker 2: So four five minute slots they reckon and you will 1912 01:36:40,840 --> 01:36:43,400 Speaker 2: meet that. You will hit your targets because your heart 1913 01:36:43,520 --> 01:36:45,479 Speaker 2: rate is so elevated compared to what it would be 1914 01:36:45,520 --> 01:36:48,479 Speaker 2: if you went for a walk four or five minute 1915 01:36:48,479 --> 01:36:52,960 Speaker 2: bursts and you're away laughing. There you go, Andy, what 1916 01:36:53,080 --> 01:36:55,320 Speaker 2: are we going out to tonight?
