1 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: Digging through the spin to find the real story. 2 00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:10,719 Speaker 2: Egoring it's hither Dupericy on drive with One New Zealand 3 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 2: let's get connected News Talks Evy. 4 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,280 Speaker 3: Afternoon. Welcome to the show. Coming up today, we are 5 00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:20,919 Speaker 3: going to speak to that Israeli politician who was told 6 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 3: off Chris Lux and she's with us up the half 7 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,439 Speaker 3: past five. Constitutional lawyer Graham Edgelot on whether the Royal 8 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 3: Commission should just change its mind and summons Jasinda Etol 9 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 3: and also the Alteradrohungamere on why he's complaining that the 10 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:35,199 Speaker 3: government always blames counsels. 11 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: What ever, dupericy Alan. 12 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,160 Speaker 3: Look, I think what many of us are experiencing right now, 13 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 3: Regissinda and Grant and Chippy and iceha're not fronting publicly 14 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:46,559 Speaker 3: for the COVID inquiry is not disappointment, because disappointment requires 15 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 3: us to have had a higher expectation of them, and 16 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 3: I don't think that we did, because I think we 17 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 3: got the measure of these people a long time ago. 18 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 3: I think what we're experiencing right now is a sense 19 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:58,639 Speaker 3: of injustice because these people had the power, and they 20 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 3: used that power to do things to our lives that 21 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:05,400 Speaker 3: no other politicians in the history of this country have done. 22 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 3: They told us not to leave our homes. They shut 23 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 3: the border so that we couldn't leave the country or 24 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 3: come back in. They ended some businesses through their rules. 25 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 3: They effectively forced people out of jobs for not taking 26 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 3: a vaccine that I would say most of us don't 27 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,559 Speaker 3: even bother with. Now. Now, we can argue about whether 28 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 3: any of that or all of that was justified, but 29 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 3: I don't think we can argue about how massive that was. 30 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 3: It was huge, unprecedented power. Now, with power comes responsibility 31 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 3: and accountability, and that's where they are letting us down, 32 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 3: because they are refusing to be held accountable, even if 33 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 3: just in answering questions in front of us for us 34 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 3: to be able to see it now right or wrong. 35 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,839 Speaker 3: Their actions during COVID caused so many people to lose 36 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 3: faith in government. This was their chance, I think, to 37 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 3: restore that a little bit. Instead, what they're doing is 38 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 3: they causing us to lose even more faith in government. 39 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 3: If these people ever tell themselves or us that they 40 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 3: are here to serve, it is utter bs. They're not 41 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 3: here to serve. If they were, every single one of 42 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 3: them would put their tree's expectations of answers ahead of 43 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 3: their own ambitions, but they're not. It's more important for 44 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 3: Jacinda to keep managing her brand and living her best 45 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 3: international life of Glamour. More important for Grant Robertson to 46 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 3: keep pulling in that six hundred and thirty thousand dollars 47 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 3: a year at Otago. More important for Chippy to try 48 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 3: to have another go, deluded at being Prime Minister again. 49 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 3: More important for I should preserve whatever credibility she has 50 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 3: left as a health academic. But they should know. They 51 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 3: can delay accountability, but they cannot prevent accountability. They will 52 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 3: be held accountable, maybe through a future Commission of inquiry 53 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 3: one day, maybe just through the history books that eventually 54 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,959 Speaker 3: trash their reputations like history has trashed so many other politicians, 55 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 3: including Muldoon's. Either way, add to the long list of 56 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 3: unpleasant things that we've learned about them, we can now 57 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 3: add cowardice to that list. 58 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: To ever do for see Allen. 59 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 3: Nine two nine two is the text number. Standard text 60 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 3: fees apply. 61 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 4: Now. 62 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 3: A Kiwi dad has found himself in an unexpected bureaucratic 63 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 3: nightmare trying to get his kid's New Zealand citizenship. John 64 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 3: Bryars Ruddock's great grandfather was an all Black, his mother 65 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 3: was a Maori singer, Ronda Bryce, and his ancestor signed 66 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 3: the Treaty of Whitehangi. But John himself was born overseas, 67 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 3: and so when he moved back to New Zealand and 68 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 3: April with his three kids, he found out it's a 69 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 3: pretty lengthy and expensive process to get them their citizenship. 70 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 3: And John is with me. Now, hey, John, got John, 71 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 3: So what's the problem here? I mean, this is this 72 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 3: is what everybody has to go through if they find 73 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 3: themselves in the same position as you, don't. 74 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 5: They exactly, Yeah, And that's uh, you know, I had 75 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 5: to go through it the hard way and hit all 76 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 5: the red tape, and you know I and I have 77 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 5: an easier route as far was you know, but somebody 78 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 5: migrating here with my children, you know that wasn't a 79 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 5: citizen or you know, a refugee in general. 80 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: And you know, being that I am and. 81 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 5: My children are as well, you know, I just feel 82 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 5: it is, I guess, kind of unconstitutional as far as 83 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 5: you know, if we're going to the treaty and you 84 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 5: know I've. 85 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, so are you saying so you have citizenship 86 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 3: by descent like me because our parents were Kiwis, but 87 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 3: we were born overseas. Yes, and so your problem is 88 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 3: you you are a Kiwi, but because you have citizenship 89 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 3: by descent your kids being born overseas, you cannot pass 90 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 3: it on to them. Yes, correct, okay, And so are 91 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 3: you saying that coming back as a Kiwi with your 92 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 3: not Kiwi kids is harder to get them citizenship than 93 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 3: it would be if you came in on a visa 94 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 3: as a migrant. Is that right? 95 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 5: That is right? 96 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 3: How so how does that work because. 97 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 5: I'm a citizen and my children who are solely dependent 98 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 5: on their father. Yes, because I'm not on a visa 99 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 5: or applying for a visa myself, they all get charged individually. 100 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 5: So normally, say if I had twenty kids and I 101 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 5: was here on a visa applying for my residence visa, 102 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 5: it would cost me three thousand and two hundred for 103 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 5: me and all my dependent children. But because I'm a 104 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 5: citizen not on a visa, they charge them individually. So 105 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 5: it's three two hundred per child. How many kids you got, 106 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 5: I've got three. 107 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 3: Children, okay, just like ten thousand dollars, right, right? Have 108 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 3: you started the process? 109 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 6: Yeah? 110 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 5: So being that the first thing I had to get 111 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 5: in store was the court order to allow me the 112 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 5: sole custody that I deserve. Sow I first did that 113 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 5: and that cost me so much financially to do from 114 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 5: here dealing with courts in Hawaii. And we were living 115 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 5: in Washington for the past two years, so I haven't 116 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 5: been a resident of Boi for a couple of quite 117 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 5: a few years. Actually, I moved there during the COVID 118 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 5: twenty twenty one. 119 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:09,799 Speaker 1: We moved to Washington. 120 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 3: Okay, So this has just become a bureaucratic nightmare. Now, 121 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 3: I just want to clarify something that you said at 122 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 3: the start. Is your argument that this shouldn't be how 123 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 3: it is for any New Zealand citizenship who finds a 124 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 3: citizen who finds themselves in this situation or are you arguing. 125 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 5: That I feel it's understandable I for to be in place, 126 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 5: but I feel like there's a There is the Treaty 127 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 5: of White Tonguey and that's what differs from other countries. 128 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 5: And Dongata Fenua allowed access to their fenoa. 129 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: It should be upheld. 130 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 3: So are you so just I don't want to put 131 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 3: words in your mouth, but are you arguing that because 132 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 3: you're Maori, it's got to be an easier route to 133 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 3: get your kid's citizenship. 134 00:06:56,160 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 5: I definitely feel it should be prioritized as far as being, 135 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 5: you know, fuck a pop of this land. Like my 136 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 5: entire lineage and my children's is buried in this fenoir, 137 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 5: including my mom. 138 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 3: Okay, so listen, best of luck with it, John, I 139 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 3: really appreciate your time, John, Bryce Ruddick, Yeah, come back 140 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 3: to that, and it's okay.

It's the 180 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 7: sub one thirty. Die have to spin at a sub 181 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 7: one thirties and see if it works. 182 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 3: See over eighteen flag It's never worked. Now See Golden 183 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 3: has confirmed what we all knew was happening. Yes, yes, 184 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 3: so she's off to whom. 185 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 7: She's off the Fireferns, Fireferns. 186 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 3: I'll see what you're doing there, mate. 187 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 7: Katie Wills is stealing everybody.

And I'm trying to work out if 192 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 7: New Zealanders would like or fans of net or would 193 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 7: like to see their superstars playing in the Premiership or 194 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 7: they'd just rather see the silver Ferns win gold and 195 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 7: win world championships. What's more important? 196 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 3: Do you think the Silver Ferns winning everything? Yes? 197 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 7: And we're willing to forego having some of our superstars 198 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 7: on the court lod. 199 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 3: Yes, can I tell you? 200 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 7: Ways have opened and everyone's leaving. But we can't lose 201 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 7: everybody because he's in a netbill gay yet not you 202 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 7: ye okay. 203 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 3: So at some point, and this is the argument that Alex, 204 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: who's Alex and the sports team who's really into the 205 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 3: netball makes this point, right, at some point Netball New 206 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 3: Zealand has to say stop. That's enough. Otherwise it's a 207 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 3: free for all and they've got no control. So even 208 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 3: just to create the idea, to create the perception that 209 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 3: still got control, they've got to say no to somebody. 210 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 7: Right, and they will eventually. I don't know when. I 211 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 7: suppose we'll find out. Whilst a few beggins, there's probably 212 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 7: some more to come. 213 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 8: Just go back. 214 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,839 Speaker 7: Tasman are playing North and Hawks Bay are playing North. 215 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 7: Harve excuse me, sorry, I can't read my own hand. 216 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 3: Well, I'm looking at it and it's pretty hard to read. 217 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 7: Mates possible to write neatly. 218 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 3: Like it's just like a series of triangles and pyramids 219 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 3: that I can see over there.

It's Heather duplessy 241 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 2: Ellen Drive with one New Zealand. Let's get connected news dogs. 242 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 3: That'd be wtf, Heather, He's not a key with his kids, 243 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 3: aren't either, Jeff, thank you. Okay, let's deal with John's case. 244 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 3: So John, who was on just before, his argument essentially 245 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 3: boils down to the fact, strip everything out and it 246 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 3: comes down to he's Mary, his kids of Maori, So 247 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 3: therefore they should have New Zealand citizenship because this is 248 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 3: where Mary come from. Now, look, I have some sympathy 249 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,719 Speaker 3: for how he feels about this, because it is a 250 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 3: little bit weird when you don't have citizenship in a 251 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 3: place that you fuck up Upper too, okay, and most 252 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 3: of us will have this experience at some stage in 253 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 3: our lives. I'm I'm a hell of a lot of 254 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 3: me is Scottish. Right that the clue is in the 255 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 3: name Allan. There is a lot of me that's Scottish. 256 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 3: A lot of my fullbears on my dad's side are 257 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 3: buried in Scotland. So if I was arguing the same 258 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 3: thing as John, I would argue that I should have 259 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 3: Scottish citizenship to go back to the place where my 260 00:12:55,840 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 3: people are buried. But I don't. Now, we like no, 261 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 3: no one expects Scotland to give me citizenship and equally 262 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 3: no one and that's where I come from. And yes, 263 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 3: John comes from here, but we cannot just be giving 264 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 3: him citizenship and his kid's citizenship were largely his kids. 265 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 3: He already has it just because he comes from here. 266 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 3: And let's take this out to the point that he 267 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 3: was taking it to, which you can't just give citizenship 268 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 3: to everybody who fuck u up as Mary, because at 269 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 3: the moment, we have in this country a million people 270 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 3: who identify as Marty. Right, that's basically eighteen percent of us. 271 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 3: Now it'll be a lot more than that overseas, living 272 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 3: in Australia and various other places, and it will only 273 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 3: get more and more and more as we continue to 274 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 3: have children with each other. And you know, nobody thinks 275 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 3: anything of racial lines anymore, thank god, so it doesn't 276 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 3: really matter. So you're just going to eventually we're all 277 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 3: going to be a little bit Mary, aren't We We 278 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 3: have one of the biggest diasporas in the world, so 279 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 3: we have a lot of people living overseas who are kiwis. 280 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 3: If every single one of them who fuck upup as 281 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,440 Speaker 3: Marty decided that they needed to have new Zealand citizenship. 282 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 3: Can you see the problem that we would have, which 283 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 3: would be all these people out there fuck upupp A 284 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 3: Mahry even a tiny little bit right have automatic news 285 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 3: Zealand citizenship can just come back and use our healthcare system. 286 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 3: If they want to get a bit sick, come back here, 287 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 3: claim the soupid. That is a completely unsustainable, impossible situation. 288 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 3: So even just for financial reasons, not an idea.

There are mechanisms that exist, 341 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 3: but they rely on you having to spend time living 342 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 3: in New Zealand, which I have one hundred percent agree 343 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 3: with Donna, and also does cost a bit of money 344 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 3: and by the sounds of things, quite a lot of money. 345 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 3: Now I've got a little bit of good news for Wellington. 346 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 3: Looks like the Golden Mile might be dead. Now the 347 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 3: gold there will be. I cannot tell you if you 348 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 3: live outside of Wellington or don't know anybody in Wellington, 349 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 3: the number of people who will be beside themselves happy 350 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 3: to hear that the Golden Mile will be dead. The 351 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 3: first stage, unfortunately, is already underway. This has been so 352 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 3: controversial there because it's killed so many businesses, or the 353 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 3: ideas it will kill so many businesses that are already struggling. 354 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 3: First stage is already underway. This is at Cambridge Terrace, 355 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 3: the intersection between Cambridge Terrace and Courtney Place. The second 356 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 3: stage is going to run down Courtney Place through to 357 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 3: Tartanaki Street. Now the contract for that is not yet signed. 358 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 3: The guy who was the the Transport and Infrastructure Manager, 359 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 3: Brad Singh, who's just leaving Wellington City Council, he said 360 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 3: the contract for that second stage might be signed in November. 361 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 3: November is after the council elections, which means toys out 362 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 3: and most likely Andrew Little is in. And Andrew Little 363 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 3: is not a fan of the Golden Mile because he 364 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 3: wants to support businesses. So I would say there is 365 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 3: hope for Wellington here. Twenty three away from five. 366 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 2: It's the world wires on newstalks. They'd be drive. 367 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 3: European leaders of how the conference call ahead of the 368 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,880 Speaker 3: Trump Putin meeting on Ukraine, Sir Kiir Starmer doesn't seem 369 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 3: keen on the idea of Ukraine giving up any tip territory. 370 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 11: International borders cannot be must not be changed by force. 371 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 3: And alongside that. 372 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 11: That any talk about borders diplomacy cease fire has to 373 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 11: sit alongside a robust and credible security guarantee. 374 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,160 Speaker 3: As you'd imagine, Elbow isn't stoked that Hamas has praised 375 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 3: him for recognizing Palestine. He's taken aim at the media 376 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:25,959 Speaker 3: for reporting the story. 377 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 7: They shouldn't repeat Hamas's propaganda. 378 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,719 Speaker 12: So I won't be a cheer squad for Hamas and 379 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 12: for its statements. 380 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 4: What I'll do is say that Hamas should be isolated. 381 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 3: It's awkis to be on the side of Hamas, isn't it. 382 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:44,479 Speaker 3: And finally a lake in Minnesota has disappeared. So what 383 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 3: happened is the lake is twenty six acres and officials 384 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 3: get the word that there's a risk it's going to floods. 385 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 3: They open an emergency valve to lower the lake's level. 386 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 3: But the problem is the valve gets stuck on open, 387 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 3: so the lake keeps draining and draining to the point 388 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 3: that there is now no lake. The Department of Natural 389 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 3: Resources says it will take them four to six weeks 390 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 3: to fill up the lake again. 391 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:08,880 Speaker 2: The Huddle International Correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance, Peace 392 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 2: of Mind for New Zealand Business. 393 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 3: Oliver Peterson six PR Perth Life Presenters with us ale. Hello, Heather, 394 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 3: So it looks to me like your friend Elbow is 395 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 3: really uncomfortable about being in the same seat as comas. 396 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 13: Absolutely he is, and obviously Hermas is going to leverage 397 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 13: this and it's been politicized over here in Australia, but 398 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 13: he's directly quoted a statements now made by Harmas in 399 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 13: a bid to try and dismiss that media coverage which 400 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 13: described him as propaganda. 401 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 14: The Sydney Morning. 402 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,360 Speaker 13: Herald actually carried this story yesterday that Hermass's co founder 403 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 13: had praised Albo's recognition of Palenstine, saying it took political courage. 404 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 13: But he then spucks some backlash from the coalitions which 405 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 13: said the PM should hang his head in shame, and 406 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 13: from all those senior Israeli ministers. He quoted a statement 407 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 13: from Hermas today suggesting use of had no means of communication, 408 00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 13: saying it was impossible for the terrorist leader to give 409 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 13: the quote. Now, this isn't great, This isn't good news, 410 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 13: This isn't a good look. But look, Albo's not alone 411 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 13: is he in this header. I think we touched on 412 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 13: this earlier in the week. You've got other countries who 413 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 13: are obviously making this declaration about Palestine. Albou wants to 414 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 13: take this to the UN. Obviously the US is even 415 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 13: now suggesting that they may enter into this. But look, 416 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 13: it's not a great headline is it in Australia when 417 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,160 Speaker 13: her Mass is linking itself to Anthony Albanezi because it's 418 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 13: nothing that he wants to be associated with, despite the 419 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 13: fact that the coalition is saying it's a foolish plan, 420 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 13: it's absurd. It's just really really dividing. I suppose still 421 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 13: Australians who are just feeling quite uncomfortable about what that 422 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,160 Speaker 13: situation is in the Middle East. 423 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 3: Hey, you been invited to his wedding? 424 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 13: Who elbows, Yeah, I'm his best man. 425 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 3: Why did I ask you that question and expect a 426 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 3: serious answer from you?

Anthony Alberinezi, by 504 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 3: the way, on his wedding, So what's happened is he's 505 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 3: been asked about it and he often you'll find this, 506 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 3: Anthony Alberinezi often likes to talk about his wedding when 507 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 3: he's got bad news going on, Like it's quite a 508 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 3: bad thing for him to be chums with Kamas. So 509 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 3: he's like, hey, do you want to talk about my 510 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 3: wedding again? And the Australian media like yep, tell us 511 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 3: more mate, and he goes, oh, no world leaders are coming. 512 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 3: They're like oh okay, so no world leaders are coming. 513 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 3: It's a pretty small ceremony, he said, mainly family. They're 514 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 3: really close to selecting a date for the ceremony, which 515 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 3: will take place this year, and they're looking over a 516 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 3: couple of options before locking in the final details. So 517 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 3: let's just let's just understand what news there was out 518 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 3: of that. Absolutely nothing, and yet they reported it. Anyway. 519 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 3: I don't blame him for having no world leaders, because 520 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 3: if you start having world leaders, then you're going to 521 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 3: have to invite Trump, aren't you, because you can't have 522 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 3: the other world leaders there. And Trump's not there. And 523 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 3: now the position he finds himself in Hamas is going 524 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 3: to expect to be there too, So this is going 525 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 3: to get really awkward for him, isn't it. Sixteen Oh 526 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 3: by the way, on the subject of that, the Israelis 527 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 3: have got pretty upset at Luxan for what he said 528 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,879 Speaker 3: about Benjamin Nettinnahu. So let's talk to Thomas Coglan about that. 529 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 3: Next sixteen away from five. 530 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 2: Politics with centrics credit, check your customers and get paid 531 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 2: human certainty. 532 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 3: Thomas Coglan, the Herald's political editor, is in for Bari. 533 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 3: So but today, hey, Thomas, afternoon, Thomas, how's some luxe 534 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,159 Speaker 3: and feeling about the spat he's got himself into with 535 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 3: members of the Israeli government. 536 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 17: Yes, this is this is quite the spat sparked yesterday. 537 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 17: A reporter of ours, jamuns Or, asked Luxon what he 538 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 17: thought about the unfolding situation in Gaza and said that 539 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 17: benyminntn Yahoo, the Israeli leader, had lost the plot. The 540 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 17: Israeli Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister Sharon Haskell responded in a 541 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:33,400 Speaker 17: tweet this morning, missus really about the dangers of hamas 542 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 17: and how Christopher Luckxon has luxury not of not not 543 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 17: to think about about terror groups given New Zealand's isolation 544 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 17: and uh and and uh and and relative peace. Christoph 545 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 17: Luckxon is not really not backing down. He stands by 546 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 17: what he said. It's his personal view, so I think 547 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 17: he's he's feeling pretty solid. I think he's actually enjoying 548 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 17: the opportunity to put a line in the sand on 549 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 17: the Israel Gaza issue. He's obviously constrained to weave it 550 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 17: by his coalition partners, so he does seem to be 551 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 17: enjoying the opportunity. They just put his own personal view 552 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 17: out there, distinct from that of David Seymour and Winston 553 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 17: Peter's Is. 554 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 3: It remarkable to you? I mean, I find it quite 555 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 3: incredible that the thing of all the things that we 556 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 3: have done in this country and our leaders have done 557 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 3: in order to put pressure on Israel, this is the 558 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 3: thing that's actually having the best effect. 559 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 17: Yes, that is quite remarkable. It is it is a 560 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 17: way that Israel seems to be conducting its foreign affairs 561 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 17: at the moment. The Australians have had a broad side 562 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,880 Speaker 17: from Israel. I think the Canadians and the Brits got 563 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 17: one recently too, over their decision to recognize the Palestinian state. 564 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:37,640 Speaker 17: It's Israel is sort of adapting to that. Quite boisterous 565 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 17: and a wee bit unhinged, if I may say so, 566 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 17: a way of doing foreign affairs, which is the very 567 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 17: twentieth first century, very Donald Trump. That's the sort of 568 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 17: way they do things now. So perhaps not surprising on 569 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 17: their side of things. I think it is a wee 570 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 17: unusual on our side of things. We tend to keep 571 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 17: our heads down a wee bit so yeah, quite quite unusual, now. 572 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 3: Do you think, I mean, can Commission of Inquiry really 573 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 3: hides behind this non adversarial terms of restaurants that they 574 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 3: are in order to not summons. 575 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:11,359 Speaker 17: Just in detail, I wonder that is very good question, 576 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 17: and I wonder whether it would do more harm than 577 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 17: good to summons her forcing someone to come against their 578 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 17: will before a royal commission. That is, that is quite 579 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 17: a big step. But it is certainly within their power. 580 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 17: But it would certainly that would that would be quite 581 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 17: an ugly look, why. 582 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 3: Would it do harm? What is the harm that it 583 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 3: would do? 584 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 4: Well? 585 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 17: I think that they are cooperating with the inquiry. They've 586 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,719 Speaker 17: cooperated with the first date of the inquiry, which they 587 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 17: obviously set up themselves. But I wonder whether you use 588 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:48,399 Speaker 17: you already this this second phase I think is on 589 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 17: thin ice because the terms of reference only include that 590 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 17: second labor only term. It doesn't include the New Zealand 591 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 17: first labor term. You don't want the Royal Commission, I think, 592 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 17: to look like a court that was said up to 593 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 17: damn the reputation of the second term of the labors. 594 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 3: I mean, this is the difficulty we find ourselves, and 595 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 3: is that the first part was set up in such 596 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 3: a way that it would not ask the difficult questions 597 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,439 Speaker 3: and deal with the difficult things. And then the second 598 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 3: part is therefore forced to deal with the difficult things. Look, 599 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 3: I agree both of them have been us screwing the 600 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 3: scrum in the in each of their directions. But in 601 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 3: the middle of it, it's all of us who want 602 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 3: answers to this and are not being served. 603 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 17: I know, and this is why, this is why I 604 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 17: think everyone else. 605 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, if I can make this argument, I actually don't 606 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,159 Speaker 3: give a hell about whether it's an ugly look or not. 607 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 3: Just sind owes it to us. We were forced to 608 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 3: do a lot of things we didn't want to do, 609 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 3: so the very bloody least she could do is do 610 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 3: something she doesn't want to do. 611 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 17: I agree. I wish you'd just get on a plane 612 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 17: and show up. I mean, I think their excuse that 613 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 17: it's it's it's convention that ministers don't show up to 614 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 17: these things. I don't think that's correct. Wayne Mapp quoted 615 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 17: up to the Operation Burnham inquiry and inquiry that the 616 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 17: last Labor government set up. It was cheered by a 617 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 17: former Labor Prime minister. He shut up and defended himself 618 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 17: in public on camera. They should just do it, but 619 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 17: for whatever reason, and it is a terrible look, I mean, 620 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 17: just thin they were doing went on the Oprah Winfrey 621 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 17: podcast for an hour and promoted a book. And if 622 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 17: she can do that and is not afraid of people 623 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 17: clipping up those that that Oprah Winfrey interview and using 624 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 17: it in a misleading way, then she can certainly front 625 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 17: up to this. I bet she should just do it. 626 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 17: But summonsing someone is a big step, and you've got 627 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 17: and you've got to be absolutely sure that it's the 628 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 17: right one to make. 629 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 3: Is there any is there any hope at all that 630 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 3: the situation may change or is the decision made and 631 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 3: they're going to stick with it. 632 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 17: I think they're going to stick with it. The only one, 633 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 17: the most interesting thing that could happen is Chris Upkins 634 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 17: and Aishavil have a lot to lose because if they 635 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 17: look like that, they're still an act of politics. Chris 636 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 17: up Can still wants to be Prime Minister. If they 637 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 17: look like they're running from this, the net looks pretty 638 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 17: terrible for them, and I think there's evidence that it 639 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 17: is looking terrible for them. I think they were taken 640 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 17: by surprise and how negative the reaction has been to it. 641 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 17: So I think I am to be honest, Chris Hopkins 642 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 17: loves a scrap. I think he'd actually quite like to 643 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 17: sit down and go through it all. But I think 644 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 17: I personally might you know, just I don't have any 645 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 17: particular insight to this, but my personal thinking is that 646 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 17: he and Ei Shavera are probably sticking with Grant Robinson 647 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 17: and just on this. Out of respect to them, I 648 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 17: think they'd be quite heavy to sit down and do it. 649 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 3: Yep, I think you might well be right. Thank you, 650 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 3: Thomas appreciated. That's Thomas Coglan, the Herald's political leaders A 651 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 3: sorry Barriosaper is not here because he's come down with 652 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 3: man flu. Seven away from five, putting. 653 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 2: The tough questions to the newspeakers, the mic asking breakfast from. 654 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 18: Just Cinder doing to Chris Hepkins, Grant Robinson, a Shaverel. 655 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 18: No one is willing to show up publicly for the 656 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 18: COVID inquiry. Chris Hepkins is with us. Do you realize 657 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 18: how shocking this looks? You're not turning up in public? 658 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 19: Well, I mean the Royal Commission themselves have said that 659 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 19: they're not holding any through the public hearing. 660 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 6: They ran out of questions after about it. 661 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 18: At this they may be inconfident. I don't know, because 662 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 18: I've not seen it, and they've not seeing you either. 663 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 18: That's the whole point of this. People would like you 664 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,959 Speaker 18: to be seen, to be held to some level of account. 665 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 18: Is there something wrong with it? 666 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 20: Well, Mike, you've got the US rating breakfast show in 667 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 20: New Zealand and here I am answering your Christians. 668 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 14: If you've got Christians about the COVID response, fire away. 669 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 18: Back tomorrow at six am the Mike Hosking Breakfast with 670 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 18: a Vida News Talk ZB. 671 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 3: Hither I've been thinking this is an email from Dylan. 672 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 3: What do you reckon? The chances are that the three 673 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 3: stooges who refuse to be publicly interviewed by the Royal 674 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 3: Commission are actually doing this out of loyalty to a 675 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 3: dourn because simply she doesn't want to think about it. 676 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 3: Her appearance would be very public, very embarrassing, given her 677 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 3: international profile, likely be broadcast around the world. It would 678 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 3: leave her reputation in her brand in tatters, a brand 679 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 3: that is she has been so fastidious to curate. Look, 680 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 3: I think I think there's a chance of that. I 681 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 3: think there's absolutely no doubt, don't you that the four 682 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 3: of them are acting in cohoats. This is an coordinated thing, 683 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 3: and they've sent Chippy out there to front it. And 684 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 3: if Thomas is right that Chippy and Aisha are surprised 685 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 3: by their reaction, it's because I think they genuinely have 686 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 3: convinced of So go and read this Into's book, If 687 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 3: You Hate Yourself, you will find that she seems to 688 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 3: genuinely believe that the people who are upset with her 689 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 3: are just a bunch of crazy anti vaxes. And I 690 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 3: just wonder if they've all juped themselves into that they're 691 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 3: all like, are they anti vaxers? The ones who are 692 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 3: angry at us? I forget, No, it's a whole It's 693 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 3: a lot more than that, mate. So maybe that's why 694 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 3: they're surprised. Anyway, listen, we're going to talk to Mark 695 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 3: Mitchell very shortly about that police shooting in Canterbury today. 696 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 3: Looks like it was a domestic violence incident that got 697 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 3: out of hand. It was a man with a knife 698 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 3: threatening to kill his partner or hurt his partner. The 699 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 3: cops got to the address last it actually happened last night, 700 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 3: got to the address. Women ran out of the house, 701 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 3: followed by a man with the knife. So they shot 702 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 3: the man but then she picks up the knife and 703 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 3: starts coming out the cops, so they shoot her too, 704 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 3: and then she's the one that dies, which does feel 705 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 3: like an unfortunate twist in this whole thing. Anyway, the 706 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 3: question is what does this do for the debate over 707 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 3: whether the police should be armed or should not be armed. 708 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 3: So Mark Mitchell, the Police Minister's with us shortly on that. 709 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 3: The minister, the Deputy Foreign minister over in Israel, who's 710 00:32:56,560 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 3: told luxenof because the most dangerous things now come tree 711 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 3: are cats and possums. She's going to be with us 712 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 3: after half past five to explain her thoughts on this, 713 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 3: So stand by for that. News Talks at. 714 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 2: B Questions, Answers, facts, analysis, the Drive, show you trust 715 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 2: for the full picture. Heather Dupussy on Drive with One 716 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 2: New Zealand Let's Get Connected. 717 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: News Talks at B Afternoon. 718 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 3: Labor leader Chris Hopkins has spent the last twenty four 719 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 3: hours defending his decision not to turn up to the 720 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 3: public COVID inquiry. The Commission decided against summonsing him just 721 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 3: into Arduring Grant Robertson and I Shaverral because it would 722 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,959 Speaker 3: be legalistic and adversarial, which the terms of reference prohibit. 723 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 3: Graham Edgeler is a constitutional lawyer. High Graham, Hello, should 724 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,240 Speaker 3: they have gone ahead and just summons these guys anyway. 725 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 9: If they think they need it? 726 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 21: And so I think that's you know, it's the they 727 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 21: have the power to do all of these things. But 728 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,880 Speaker 21: the question is really for the Royal Commission is are 729 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,800 Speaker 21: we missing out on information that we wouldn't otherwise get 730 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 21: information that we might need to be able to make 731 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 21: our conclusions and make our recommendations. And if the answer 732 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 21: to that was yes, then they should exercise it. They 733 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 21: seem to think at the moment that they don't need 734 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 21: to have the summons, but it's something they have in 735 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 21: their back pocket, you know, if you know, they're still 736 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 21: sort of getting information from them. If they start getting 737 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 21: sort of stonewalled about the type of information that that 738 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,399 Speaker 21: they want and can't get it, then it's the power 739 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 21: they have and they should seriously consider using if they 740 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,319 Speaker 21: need it to get the information they need to have 741 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 21: to make their recommendation. 742 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 3: They seem to be, I mean not, they seem to be. 743 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 3: They are worried about the fact that it would appear adversarial, 744 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 3: But is the summons itself adversarial if the interview that 745 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 3: it then elicits is not adversarial. 746 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 21: It's a little you know, sort of formally sort of 747 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 21: giving a document to someone saying if you don't turn up, 748 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 21: you're committing a crime. You know, I could see why 749 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 21: people have that sort of thing. I mean, I would 750 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 21: have hoped that the ministers or former ministers would have 751 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 21: agreed to go. You know, I sort of there are 752 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 21: reasons for it. Don't seem particularly strong for me. You know, 753 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 21: it's something that I think we should expect ministers or 754 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 21: former ministers to do when these sorts of things happen. 755 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 21: We had it about a year ago with Minister Karen 756 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,800 Speaker 21: Ture before the White Tangi Tribunal, which is also a 757 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,359 Speaker 21: Commission of Inquiry, and they weren't getting answered and so 758 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 21: they did exercise their power to WISU were summons and 759 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 21: at that point sort of the government ministers who are 760 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,399 Speaker 21: up in arms about former ministers not doing this, now 761 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 21: up in arms that any tribunal would ever ask a 762 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 21: minister to come along and answer anything. 763 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean apart from them obviously playing politics. So 764 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 3: that that's a fair point that you're making. But isn't 765 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 3: that fascinating that the White Tangi Tribunal was prepared to 766 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,840 Speaker 3: summons hurt over simply changing one tiny part of a 767 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 3: piece of legislation, and yet this Commission of Inquiry of 768 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 3: Equal Standing is not prepared to do it on something 769 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 3: that has touched every single one of our lives, is 770 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 3: a thousand times bigger than what Karen Shaw did. 771 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 21: I think part of the issue in that case is 772 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 21: they were the White Tongue Tribunal was prepared to just 773 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 21: accept written responses, and the Minister then just didn't want 774 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 21: to provide anything, didn't want to answer written questions. It'soughtky, okay, 775 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:19,799 Speaker 21: well you're not going to do anything, then we need 776 00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:22,719 Speaker 21: you know something. In this particular case, I understand that 777 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,040 Speaker 21: at least some of the former ministers have met with 778 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 21: some of the commissioners sort of they sort of informally 779 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 21: in private, and they are also providing written answers to 780 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 21: all the sorts of questions that the Commission has And 781 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 21: so I think that's probably the difference is that they 782 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 21: are getting written answers which were what Karen Shaw didn't 783 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 21: want to provide at the time. 784 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,799 Speaker 3: Hi yea fair enough, Hey, listen, I'm given that they 785 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 3: don't want to appear publicly. Should the transcripts of the 786 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 3: interviews and evidence that they have given be published? 787 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 9: I think it should. 788 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 21: I don't think it needs to be published now. I 789 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 21: see no reason why it couldn't be published when the 790 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 21: commission makes its report. You know, sometimes, you know, we 791 00:36:56,880 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 21: think maybe to that the christ Church terror attack of inquiry. 792 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,799 Speaker 21: You know, a lot of sort of perhaps sensitive national 793 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 21: security information that you wouldn't want published this. You know, 794 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 21: there might be a few things you need to redact 795 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,760 Speaker 21: or something like that with you protect privacy with people's 796 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 21: names or whatever. But I see no reason why that 797 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 21: they couldn't release the the evidence when when they get 798 00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 21: to the end, and I think that would be appropriate. 799 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 3: Graham, thanks for your time. Mate. There's Graham Angelo, constitutional 800 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:27,240 Speaker 3: lawyer Heather do Selo. Police have shot two people, killing 801 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 3: one of them. The incident happened in christ Church last night. 802 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 3: Both of them threatened officers with a knife. Mark Mitchell 803 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,320 Speaker 3: is the policeman, as stand with us now how much. 804 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 6: Sorry even. 805 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:42,800 Speaker 3: Track of time already the past five almost mates, so 806 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 3: you can get away with both now? Could the cops 807 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 3: have used tases here instead of weapons? 808 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 6: I'm not going to second guess. I never do, never would. 809 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 12: In my advoice, would be for people not to ever 810 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 12: seecond guess what police officers are doing when they're dealing 811 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 12: with an incident. All of that will come out in 812 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 12: good time, because of course it sparks an incident like that, 813 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 12: sparks an IPCA investigation, and that will be fully reported on. 814 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 6: But you know, my. 815 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 12: Thoughts go out to those police officers and their families. 816 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 12: They have my full support. It is a police officer's 817 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,359 Speaker 12: worst nightmare to be placed in a situation like that, 818 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,280 Speaker 12: and remember that they are responding to a violent incident 819 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,279 Speaker 12: and the only thing in the forefront of their mind 820 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,840 Speaker 12: is making sure they get there to try and resolve 821 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 12: it and keep people safe. But they're obviously confronted with 822 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,919 Speaker 12: a situation where like I said, it's the worst case 823 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 12: for a police officer having to make those types of decisions. 824 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:38,439 Speaker 3: What do you reckon this does to the debate over 825 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 3: whether police should be armed. 826 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 6: That is entirely a question for the commissioner. 827 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 12: I know that is something that he's been asked and 828 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:48,320 Speaker 12: also body cameras. 829 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 6: All I'd say is that I'll fully support him. 830 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:54,279 Speaker 12: We've got an outstanding police commissioner that cares obviously very 831 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 12: deeply about his frontline police officers as I do as 832 00:38:56,840 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 12: well and this government, and we will take any advice 833 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 12: he brings forward to us. 834 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 3: Are you disappointed that none of the top three in 835 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,799 Speaker 3: the police brass let any of you guys in the 836 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 3: Beehive know that Michael Forbes had had his phone taken 837 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 3: by them, even though they'd known for ages. 838 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 12: Yes, I am disappointed by that, but again we have it. 839 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 6: We have a new police commissioner either a very good. 840 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 3: Struggle but no, no, no, that's cool. I mean, we all 841 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,560 Speaker 3: like him. But at least one of those three, one 842 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 3: of them, one of those three is Andy Costa, who's 843 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 3: just got another job in the government. Did he did 844 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 3: he see that email when it came to me. 845 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 12: I've got no idea, but certainly I said it in 846 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:40,279 Speaker 12: my letter of expectation. 847 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 6: I was very clear about no surprises. 848 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 1: He knew. 849 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 3: He knew though much, because it's impossible that Jeevin mc 850 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 3: skimming and Tanya Kurra didn't know and go to him 851 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 3: and go you heard about Michael Forbes, So why didn't 852 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:52,239 Speaker 3: he tell you? 853 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 12: I can't speculate on that he would have to be 854 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:59,279 Speaker 12: outset himself. All that I know is that is that, Yes, 855 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 12: I would have expect did to be informed under most surprises. 856 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:04,839 Speaker 3: Yeah. Is this why Tanya Kurrar resigned the other day 857 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 3: because this is a bad look for her? 858 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 6: No, No, I don't think. 859 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 12: I don't know the reasons behind that. That was her 860 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,960 Speaker 12: own choiceetters operational so but no. 861 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 3: Well, resignations always someone's choice. Did they have anything to 862 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 3: do with us? How am I? 863 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 12: You know, I'm the minister, I'm not involved in operational matters. 864 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 3: And yeah, fair antswer I'll let you go with that one. Mark, 865 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 3: thank you, Mark Mitchell, police minister. If you don't know 866 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,960 Speaker 3: what I'm talking about, it's the stuff that came out yesterday. 867 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 3: Those three GEVI Mcskimming, Andrew Costa, Tanya Kurra, they knew 868 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 3: for ages that the guy tailing tailing the Prime Minister 869 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 3: was a bit dodgy, and they didn't tell them, which 870 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,839 Speaker 3: they should have done, and then she quit the other day. 871 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:45,640 Speaker 3: I think you could put two and two together. Fourteen 872 00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 3: past five, d AB's taking a look at the latting house. 873 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,399 Speaker 3: The latest housing data reckons it makes an OCR cut 874 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 3: next week more likely. So this is the ARII n 875 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 3: Z data. House prices down another zero point five percent 876 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 3: in July. Doesn't sound like a lot, but in a month, 877 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 3: it's quite a lot. It's the largest monthly fall since 878 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 3: April last year. House sales down again two point eight 879 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 3: percent same month. They reckon if this continues, we will 880 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 3: see not just the cut next week, but we will 881 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,840 Speaker 3: see more cuts. And they're now even talking about the possibility, 882 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 3: which is a bit of change from some of these economists, 883 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,600 Speaker 3: talking about the possibility that we may go below the 884 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,839 Speaker 3: three percent mark this year quarter past. Now, you may 885 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:23,919 Speaker 3: have heard businesses more than just a text, but let's 886 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 3: be real, if you can't even get a text through, 887 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 3: you are in trouble. At One New Zealand, they get it. 888 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,359 Speaker 3: That's why they've been working hard to give you more 889 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 3: than just traditional mobile coverage. Recently, you've heard me talking 890 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 3: about One New Zealand satellite. This is the first and 891 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 3: only satellite powered mobile network in the country.

One new Zealand 898 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 3: has just been named again the best mobile network in 899 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 3: New Zealand for an impressive fourth year in a row, 900 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 3: according to the independent testing that's done by umlaut. So 901 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 3: do you want the best for your business and choose 902 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,439 Speaker 3: One New Zealand the best mobile network for a better 903 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 3: New Zealand ever? Du for c Ellen, Heather, sweetie, This 904 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:15,880 Speaker 3: government doesn't have the funds to get even the basic 905 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:17,880 Speaker 3: essentials all done and you can't blame them for that. 906 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 3: I just love all the interesting gossip you have on 907 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 3: your show. Thanks Dave. No point in reading that text 908 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 3: other than I just love the way that Dave just 909 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:28,200 Speaker 3: constructed that text. Nineteen past five. Now you know how 910 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:31,480 Speaker 3: obsessed we all are with the supermarket giveaways, the Disney discs, 911 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 3: the Smeke Braser and so on. Well, if you are, 912 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 3: don't feel bad. It's not an accident. It's psychology. It can't. 913 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 3: Vera is a professor of marketing at the University of Canterbury. Hayekun't. 914 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 14: How are you going? 915 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 3: I'm very well, thank you, sir. 916 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: What is it? Why? 917 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 3: Are we so into this stuff? 918 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 22: So this stuff works because every human, regardless of how 919 00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,239 Speaker 22: conscious you might be, loves to feel like they've won something, 920 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,719 Speaker 22: especially if it's for free. And so when the supermarkets 921 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:58,919 Speaker 22: are offering a way of kind of enticing you into 922 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 22: their shop versus someone else's, and we feel like we're 923 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 22: getting rewarded for our loyalty or rewarded for our good behavior, 924 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 22: then it's going to work for us. We're going to 925 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 22: get that little dopamine here to say, yep, if I 926 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 22: keep collecting, if I keep getting this, I might get 927 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 22: my reward at the end. 928 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,320 Speaker 3: But does it always work? Because I love the idea 929 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:17,280 Speaker 3: of the snake knives and the pots and all that stuff. 930 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:19,799 Speaker 3: But those Disney discs I just take and give them away. 931 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 3: They mean nothing to me exactly. 932 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 22: And what you've basically identified is that what is valuable 933 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 22: for you is not necessarily valuable for someone else, and 934 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:29,799 Speaker 22: vice versa. So we pick up the Disney discs to 935 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 22: give to friends who have younger kids. You know, our 936 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 22: kids are eighteen and twenty. They don't need that sort 937 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 22: of stuff. We ourselves are not swayed by these sorts 938 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 22: of promotions because we're very conscious about what impact they have, 939 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 22: But most of the people out there are not thinking 940 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:46,839 Speaker 22: consciously about what they're buying at that time. And it's 941 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:48,840 Speaker 22: kind of like a little bit bit of emotional pattern 942 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:50,320 Speaker 22: the back to say thank you for coming into a 943 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:52,759 Speaker 22: new world or countdown or whatever, and here you go. 944 00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 22: So depending on what the prize is will depend on 945 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 22: the target audience and you'll see that new world. For example, 946 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 22: targets people very specifically based on their client base will 947 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 22: worth the same. They try to find the rewards that 948 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,719 Speaker 22: work for their people or what would attract people to 949 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 22: their store. 950 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 3: Having said that account, I'm just reflecting on my behavior now. 951 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,400 Speaker 3: And even though I hate the Disney Discs with the 952 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 3: passion that I cannot explain, I never ask them not 953 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 3: to give them to me and I always take them, 954 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 3: even if to give them to somebody else. So it's 955 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,719 Speaker 3: working on me, isn't it. 956 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 22: It's working in you in a sense because you've got that. 957 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,840 Speaker 22: But has it changed your behavior to get you into 958 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:31,240 Speaker 22: Woolworth's is the real question. If it hasn't changed your behavior, 959 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,399 Speaker 22: like you're always going into the same Wallies every time, 960 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,879 Speaker 22: or you're going into the same supermarket every time, then 961 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 22: it's not really changed much of your behavior, but you 962 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,399 Speaker 22: grabbing them, even if it's to chuck in the bin. 963 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 22: It's another kind of social cue. If someone's offered you something, 964 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,800 Speaker 22: it's rude to say no thanks, I don't want your hospitality. 965 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:48,600 Speaker 22: But if you are taking it and giving it to 966 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:50,800 Speaker 22: someone else, and then that is a way of extending 967 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 22: your sense of monarchy to someone else, then yeah, that's 968 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 22: the way that the supermarkets win as well. 969 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 3: A count thanks very much, appreciate it, account via Professor 970 00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:00,799 Speaker 3: of Marketing, University of Canterbury. Now this will make you 971 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 3: feel better about it. He can't. Even though he is, 972 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:05,759 Speaker 3: he's aware of all of the stuff. He told me, 973 00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:09,760 Speaker 3: he's still was talking earlier. He still succumbs to this stuff. 974 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 3: So he was saying he once ended up with twenty 975 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,759 Speaker 3: cag's a frozen salmon for free. Somebody just came up 976 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 3: to him was like you want They were doing a giveaway. 977 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 3: Do you want twenty cag's a frozen salmon? He's like, yeah, 978 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 3: I want it, and then he got it and he 979 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:22,799 Speaker 3: was like, what the hell am I going to do 980 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,400 Speaker 3: with this now? Because he was in Corimandel on holiday, 981 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:27,160 Speaker 3: so he gave half of it away to the hotel 982 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 3: or something that he was staying at in Corimandel, and 983 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 3: then for the other teen CAGs he had to get 984 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 3: it back to christ Church, so he went to Ball 985 00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:35,400 Speaker 3: to chilibin. Now isn't that a case of sometimes the 986 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:37,759 Speaker 3: free bee not being worth it? Happy to take the 987 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 3: twenty cages of k but now he's paying money to 988 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 3: buy a chilibin to get at home. So you know 989 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:48,920 Speaker 3: it messes with our brains, doesn't it. Five twenty two Checking. 990 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 1: The point of the story. 991 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:54,320 Speaker 2: It's Heather Duplicy Ellen drive with one New Zealand let's 992 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:55,719 Speaker 2: get connected, and youth. 993 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,240 Speaker 3: Dog said, be yeah, can you please invite Grant Robertson 994 00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,239 Speaker 3: on to get his side of this debarcle? You what 995 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:03,400 Speaker 3: actually fascinating? He's obviously what I get the feeling he 996 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:05,160 Speaker 3: might be worried about what we think about him because 997 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 3: one of his little helpers just wrote an opinion piece 998 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,360 Speaker 3: in the Herald. I'll run you through that hopefully in 999 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:12,320 Speaker 3: the next half hour. Right now, it's five twenty five. Now, 1000 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 3: if the secondary school teachers think that they're going to 1001 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,239 Speaker 3: get the support of Kiwi parents with next week's strike, 1002 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 3: they're cutting themselves. I don't think they are. The thing is, 1003 00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:24,240 Speaker 3: public support in these kinds of negotiations is really really important, 1004 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:26,359 Speaker 3: you know, when it comes to public pay negotiations. It's 1005 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,920 Speaker 3: why the unions and the ministers try so hard to 1006 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:33,240 Speaker 3: sell their own positions in the media, because public support 1007 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:35,920 Speaker 3: will determine how long the workers can strike for. And 1008 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 3: if we support the workers, then we'll put up with 1009 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:39,840 Speaker 3: their strikes and they get a better chance of screwing 1010 00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:41,600 Speaker 3: a good deal out of the government. But if we 1011 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:43,399 Speaker 3: don't support the workers, then we're not going to put 1012 00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:44,920 Speaker 3: up with their strikes. They're going to have to settle 1013 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 3: earlier and therefore for less than they actually want. Now, once, 1014 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 3: can we see these numbers. I don't think that they're 1015 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 3: going to think that teachers claims here are reasonable. Teachers 1016 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,440 Speaker 3: just got a fourteen and a half percent pay rise 1017 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 3: two years ago. Now on top of that, they want 1018 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 3: another eight percent, plus four percent the year after, plus 1019 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,399 Speaker 3: four percent the year after. Now you add that up, 1020 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:09,919 Speaker 3: that's more than thirty percent in five years. Hands up. 1021 00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:12,400 Speaker 3: Who else has got a thirty percent pay rise in 1022 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:15,319 Speaker 3: five years? Now on top of that, what have we 1023 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:17,359 Speaker 3: been talking about for the last couple of years, If 1024 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:19,399 Speaker 3: not that we have a crisis in education with kids 1025 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:22,520 Speaker 3: failing to learn basic things and therefore failing their exams. 1026 00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,919 Speaker 3: And what have we been implording for the last few weeks, 1027 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,280 Speaker 3: if not the bold moves by Erica Stanford to finally 1028 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 3: reform education and give our kids a chance. So do 1029 00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 3: do teachers really think that, in that context of us 1030 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:37,360 Speaker 3: as parents being worried and applauding an education minister for 1031 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,319 Speaker 3: turning it around, that if they start disrupting kids learning 1032 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:42,200 Speaker 3: with the strike, that we're going to support them. It's 1033 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 3: very unlikely. Teachers might need to brace themselves that they're 1034 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:47,440 Speaker 3: going to have to settle much closer to what the 1035 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 3: government is offering them than the thirty percent that they 1036 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:51,560 Speaker 3: want over five years. Because read the. 1037 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:54,560 Speaker 1: Room together, do for sea Ellen. 1038 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 3: That Israeli minister is going to be with us shortly now, listen, 1039 00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:00,200 Speaker 3: I've got to tell you this. In fact, I'm not 1040 00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 3: gonna have time to tell you this. And this brings 1041 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:07,239 Speaker 3: me some despair. The most bizarre Inheriton's case has just 1042 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 3: ended in Sydney, with one of the brothers cutting off 1043 00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:13,160 Speaker 3: the ear or like a bit of the ear, of 1044 00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 3: the corpse of his other brother and then going to 1045 00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 3: court to try to get to be able to retake Oh, 1046 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:22,000 Speaker 3: it's just fascinating anyway, I'm gonna have to sorry, that's 1047 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 3: like the world's worst tease. I'm gonna have to tell 1048 00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,080 Speaker 3: you about it later because I absolutely have run out 1049 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:28,040 Speaker 3: of time on this one. Here the can you please 1050 00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:31,040 Speaker 3: save the Disney discs for me?

Stop it? 1056 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 1: Cat. 1057 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:43,960 Speaker 3: Headline's next. 1058 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:53,680 Speaker 2: After making the news, the newsmakers talk to Heather first. 1059 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:57,880 Speaker 2: It's Heather Duplicy Ellen drive with One New Zealand. Let's 1060 00:48:57,880 --> 00:48:59,360 Speaker 2: get connected news dogs. 1061 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 1: They'd be to you're taking me? 1062 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:06,279 Speaker 14: How would your name go to? 1063 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:10,879 Speaker 3: Right at the hut is standing by this evening.

Max Baxter is not stoked with how 1067 00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:20,080 Speaker 3: the government is having a cracked local government. Right now, 1068 00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:22,719 Speaker 3: it's twenty five away from seven, it's from six rather now. 1069 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 3: A member of the Israeli government has hit back at 1070 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:27,279 Speaker 3: Chris lux and the Prime Minister after his comments on 1071 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:28,560 Speaker 3: the war in Gaza yesterday. 1072 00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:31,439 Speaker 21: I think lettin Yahoo has gone way too far. 1073 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:35,920 Speaker 3: I think he has lost the plot now. Israel's Deputy 1074 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,719 Speaker 3: Minister of Foreign Affairs, Sharon Haskell, fired back, claiming New 1075 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,680 Speaker 3: Zealand's biggest threat to life were possums and cats and 1076 00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 3: she's with us right now, hash Sharon. I had a 1077 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 3: good morning, good morning to you. Now, Sharon, You've got 1078 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:50,360 Speaker 3: a point there. But Chris Luxon also has a point, 1079 00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 3: doesn't he. I mean, you guys have lost the plot 1080 00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:54,280 Speaker 3: with what's going on in Gaza. 1081 00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 16: Well, c First of all, I stand by Prime Minister 1082 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,680 Speaker 16: in to now and his actions. Every single thing that 1083 00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 16: he did in the last two years, the sole purpose 1084 00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:09,080 Speaker 16: of it was to defend our people, our country and 1085 00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:13,360 Speaker 16: our children. The reality year is very tough and the 1086 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:16,920 Speaker 16: Middle East is a very very tough neighborhood as well, 1087 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 16: with many changes, and we're facing death cult tourist organization 1088 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:26,319 Speaker 16: jihadists who have not just committed the worst massacre of 1089 00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:30,799 Speaker 16: Jews since the Holocaust, but they continue to reiterate and 1090 00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:34,120 Speaker 16: say over and over again that whenever they'll have the chance, 1091 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:38,239 Speaker 16: they'll create, and they'll do the massacre, the raping, the 1092 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 16: burning alive, over and over again. I think it's just 1093 00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:45,960 Speaker 16: natural that any country will try and defend the country. 1094 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:50,160 Speaker 16: We cannot live beside a Nazi deaf cult, and so look, 1095 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:54,799 Speaker 16: it's been very difficult to combat them, and obviously the 1096 00:50:54,880 --> 00:51:00,799 Speaker 16: situation is far more complex because they hold hostages, and 1097 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,120 Speaker 16: that makes it far more difficult for us. 1098 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:06,359 Speaker 3: Yes, I mean, but this is where the plot has 1099 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 3: been lost. Your defense of Israel and your attempts to 1100 00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:13,800 Speaker 3: get the hostages back have now resulted in children starving 1101 00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:15,640 Speaker 3: to death. That is unacceptable. 1102 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:20,400 Speaker 16: Well, you know, I dispute the fact that you put 1103 00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:24,000 Speaker 16: the responsibility for the humanitarian crisis on Israel. 1104 00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 3: You are responsible for. 1105 00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:27,359 Speaker 1: No. 1106 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:31,759 Speaker 16: Well, the first one that is responsible for the humanitarian 1107 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:36,120 Speaker 16: crisis is a terrorist organization from US since the beginning, 1108 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:41,480 Speaker 16: was given free access, was looting them, was taxing them, 1109 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:45,120 Speaker 16: was benefiting from it. We've been trying to work with 1110 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:49,799 Speaker 16: the international community for almost two years now begging them 1111 00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 16: to stop using Genera as has been using this organization 1112 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:58,200 Speaker 16: because their own Yes, you have your own the facilities, 1113 00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:03,400 Speaker 16: the logistics and so all done. The first responsibility is 1114 00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,319 Speaker 16: not to take this as a political case, but as 1115 00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:10,879 Speaker 16: a professional humanitarian case. And if the United Nation would 1116 00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:14,320 Speaker 16: have said the proper agencies here to the gazen strip 1117 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:19,000 Speaker 16: that are capable that haves the logistics expertise to deal 1118 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:23,720 Speaker 16: in crisis in humanitarian crisis like the World Food Organization UNI, 1119 00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:27,160 Speaker 16: SEF and World Health Organization, instead of just handing it 1120 00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:31,120 Speaker 16: out from us, this would have looked very much differently. 1121 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:36,080 Speaker 16: We have been trying to work and their mission has 1122 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:39,719 Speaker 16: been failing since day one, and no matter how much 1123 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:44,040 Speaker 16: we've been trying to work together, Secretary General of UN, 1124 00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 16: Guterish have turned it into a political issue. 1125 00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:51,720 Speaker 3: I understand your frustration. I understand your frustration with the UN, 1126 00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 3: But is an argument about which idea organization is handing 1127 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,440 Speaker 3: out aid really worth having when there are children who 1128 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:01,560 Speaker 3: are done as a result of a lack of eide. 1129 00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:07,319 Speaker 3: Surely the solution here is simply Surely the solution here 1130 00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:10,759 Speaker 3: is just through which the aid organization just flood the 1131 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,960 Speaker 3: area with aid. That way Hamas loses control of it 1132 00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:14,920 Speaker 3: and the kids get fed. 1133 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,800 Speaker 16: Well, that's the problem that I think you don't really understand, 1134 00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:22,400 Speaker 16: because they were handing out to be distributed by a 1135 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:26,640 Speaker 16: terrorist organization that threw the control over the food and 1136 00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 16: the shelter in the medicine, were controlling the population. When 1137 00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:35,480 Speaker 16: we tried to build a second channel, the Americans were 1138 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:40,480 Speaker 16: putting a new aid organization to funnel more aid because 1139 00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:45,640 Speaker 16: that system was failing. What did Hamas do? They created chaos. 1140 00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:49,720 Speaker 16: They declared that anyone that would go and collect free 1141 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 16: food directly to Savinian will be called a traitor, and 1142 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:57,240 Speaker 16: in guards that traitors are executed. They put a bounty 1143 00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:01,120 Speaker 16: on the head of the humanitarian workers to create chaos 1144 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:03,040 Speaker 16: in those distributions. Do you understand that? 1145 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,400 Speaker 3: Do you understand the international argument here that if you 1146 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:09,880 Speaker 3: flood the area with aid, harmasa's control over aid and 1147 00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:13,239 Speaker 3: therefore over the population is loosened and the kids get 1148 00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:15,440 Speaker 3: fed and HARMASA is no longer relevant because there's just 1149 00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:16,200 Speaker 3: so much aid. 1150 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:20,279 Speaker 16: If only if many organizations are the one who are 1151 00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,120 Speaker 16: going to distribute it. If you look on the last 1152 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 16: cease fire when Gazza was fielded with humanitarian aid, you 1153 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:31,759 Speaker 16: saw that Tramas was pocketing millions of dollars. It was 1154 00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:35,200 Speaker 16: the first time since the seventh of October that Tramas 1155 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:38,040 Speaker 16: was able to pay one hundred percent of all the 1156 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:41,319 Speaker 16: salaries of all the terrorists and was the first time 1157 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:44,880 Speaker 16: it was able to recruit new terrorists to fight and 1158 00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:49,719 Speaker 16: kill is rabbies and so that had become duicidal. You 1159 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:51,879 Speaker 16: need to understand that the situation is. 1160 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:56,400 Speaker 23: Much more complex than the blood biballs and the propaganda 1161 00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 23: that Traumas is spreading, where most of the media is 1162 00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:03,719 Speaker 23: taking almost all the information straight from the mouthpiece from US. 1163 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:06,480 Speaker 16: And it's buying into this. 1164 00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:10,919 Speaker 3: I don't understand this situation is fun. I understand you're saying, Sharon, listen, 1165 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:14,880 Speaker 3: are you guys in in the government aware of just 1166 00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 3: how upset the international community is about what they are 1167 00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:21,799 Speaker 3: seeing and how out of step you guys are with 1168 00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 3: the rest of us Now? 1169 00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:28,319 Speaker 16: I think that many in the international community are very 1170 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:30,200 Speaker 16: much concentrating on the process. 1171 00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:36,080 Speaker 3: Another result, I think I think when Trump of did children. 1172 00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:41,600 Speaker 16: Well on a contrary because if that was the aim 1173 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:45,719 Speaker 16: of some of the leadership, then they weren't destroyed the 1174 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 16: delicate negotiation that were going on for almost a month 1175 00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:54,520 Speaker 16: during the times where we were making so many concessions 1176 00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:57,719 Speaker 16: towards from us and demands when we were negotiating and 1177 00:55:57,840 --> 00:56:02,399 Speaker 16: Israel agreed three times for a sea fire and Commasins refused, 1178 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 16: And while we were negotiating, some of these leadership like 1179 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:09,920 Speaker 16: Macron and others. 1180 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:16,239 Speaker 24: Make claims who tough in Commasin's position during the negotiations 1181 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 24: and completely obliterating any kind of chance for a cea spare. 1182 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:24,680 Speaker 16: So, if you're concentrating on their children, and if you 1183 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,880 Speaker 16: want a ceasefire, then you do what you know Trump 1184 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:31,680 Speaker 16: did in the beginning, put enough pressure on commands so 1185 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:34,560 Speaker 16: that they will be forced to agree to a ceasefire 1186 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:39,319 Speaker 16: that will release the hostages that are being starved to death, 1187 00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 16: being abused, being tortured. And on the other hand, elevate 1188 00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:48,640 Speaker 16: and give a ceasefire for the Palestinian give an opportunity 1189 00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:52,120 Speaker 16: to bring in eight. That's what the responsible thing to 1190 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:53,359 Speaker 16: do is when I. 1191 00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 3: See, I'm sorry we've got I really appreciate your points 1192 00:56:57,600 --> 00:56:58,680 Speaker 3: and I don't mean to cut you off, but we 1193 00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:00,400 Speaker 3: are really short on time sharing. Thank you so much 1194 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:01,759 Speaker 3: for taking the time to talk to us. Mate that 1195 00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,520 Speaker 3: Sharon Haskell is Raelei, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, to 1196 00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:06,239 Speaker 3: take a break, go to the huddle next seventeen away 1197 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:06,800 Speaker 3: from six. 1198 00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:11,440 Speaker 2: The huddle with New Zealand Southeast International Realty, the ones 1199 00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:13,520 Speaker 2: for unmasked results right. 1200 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:15,400 Speaker 3: On the huddle of that seven? Who got Fellow Riley, 1201 00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:20,080 Speaker 3: former former Business Business New Zealand boss and also ironed 1202 00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:21,920 Speaker 3: you partners at the moment in Rob Campbell, au T 1203 00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:23,880 Speaker 3: Chancellor and former Boss of Health New Zealand.

I've a lot of sympathy for what she's saying, 1210 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,040 Speaker 14: and a lot of what she's saying I think is 1211 00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 14: actually correct. I've been reading a lot about this. But 1212 00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:45,240 Speaker 14: I also agree with our Prime Minister. I think I 1213 00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:47,560 Speaker 14: think they have lost the plot. I think they need 1214 00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:50,160 Speaker 14: to they need to think about what their war aims 1215 00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:52,000 Speaker 14: are and how they get out of this and what 1216 00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:53,720 Speaker 14: they're doing now is not doing that. So you know, 1217 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:55,440 Speaker 14: I think Lesson's absolutely right. 1218 00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 3: Actually, Okay, what do you make of it? 1219 00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:57,040 Speaker 15: Rob? 1220 00:57:58,440 --> 00:57:58,600 Speaker 6: Well? 1221 00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 19: You can see why it's hard to get peace there, 1222 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:03,200 Speaker 19: can't you? But I have you don't think the Prime 1223 00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:06,080 Speaker 19: Minister is correct. It was good for him to show 1224 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:09,200 Speaker 19: some humanity. But the truth is Netanya who hasn't lost 1225 00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:11,720 Speaker 19: the plot. He is carefully following the plot. It's been 1226 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:14,920 Speaker 19: the same plot all the way along. They want to 1227 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:19,240 Speaker 19: destroy Hamas, they want to destroy Gaza and potentially destroy 1228 00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:22,800 Speaker 19: the Palestinians. And I think it is the plot. So 1229 00:58:23,040 --> 00:58:25,240 Speaker 19: I'm sorry. I think the Prime Minister's wrong. He hasn't 1230 00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:26,680 Speaker 19: lost it. He's carrying it through. 1231 00:58:26,960 --> 00:58:30,080 Speaker 3: Interesting, Okay, listen, I should Phil Should the Royal Commission 1232 00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:33,440 Speaker 3: of Inquiry change its mind and summons just under it? 1233 00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:34,720 Speaker 6: Ol? No. 1234 00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:37,320 Speaker 14: The reason is I don't. I think that's going too far. 1235 00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:40,880 Speaker 14: And I think, you know, there's the politicians who refuse 1236 00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 14: to turn up have demonstrated already to the public of 1237 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:46,560 Speaker 14: New Zealand that the very issues that have been raised 1238 00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:48,800 Speaker 14: by the government about them right now under which they 1239 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:51,160 Speaker 14: they were on the podium of truth every day, they're 1240 00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:51,920 Speaker 14: oppit to turn up. 1241 00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:52,120 Speaker 6: Now. 1242 00:58:52,280 --> 00:58:54,600 Speaker 14: I think enough's been said. And if that were summons, 1243 00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 14: there'll be no good to it. Anyway. They wouldn't say anything. 1244 00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:01,120 Speaker 14: They'd lawyer up. They know you have agree adversarial arrangement, 1245 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:03,720 Speaker 14: and that the whole idea of this Commission of Inquiry 1246 00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:06,720 Speaker 14: is to get to some actionable truth, some actionable kind 1247 00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:09,480 Speaker 14: of stuff that can that can get rid of the 1248 00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:11,920 Speaker 14: cracks and actually let us move forward together. So you 1249 00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:13,960 Speaker 14: know they've done what they've done, I think we move on, 1250 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:16,320 Speaker 14: And because I'll cooperate with the inquiry in other ways. 1251 00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:18,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, if the point of it, and I agree Rob 1252 00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:21,040 Speaker 3: that the point of it is to remove the cracks 1253 00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:22,840 Speaker 3: and let us move on. This is not letting us 1254 00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:24,520 Speaker 3: move on, is it. If you don't have the very 1255 00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:27,680 Speaker 3: people who made the decisions answering the questions in public. 1256 00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:31,280 Speaker 19: Well, I guess I don't know about the performance side 1257 00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:31,440 Speaker 19: of it. 1258 00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:32,320 Speaker 6: I don't even. 1259 00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:35,080 Speaker 19: Know how much they've answered the legitimate questions that the 1260 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:37,920 Speaker 19: Commission has. I mean, if they've answered the questions in 1261 00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 19: some other way and want to avoid the performance, I 1262 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:44,720 Speaker 19: can sort of understand that. And frankly, I don't think 1263 00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 19: it's going to persuade anyone either way to change their 1264 00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:52,160 Speaker 19: mind about the COVID period. Unfortunately, it would be good 1265 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:53,720 Speaker 19: if we could do that and move on, But I 1266 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:55,920 Speaker 19: don't think it's actually very gemine to it whether they 1267 00:59:55,960 --> 00:59:56,640 Speaker 19: turn up or not. 1268 00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:58,919 Speaker 3: Do you think, actually, Phil, now that I think about 1269 00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:01,000 Speaker 3: it, it is possible that they have fallen into a trap 1270 01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:04,520 Speaker 3: that was set for them, which is do you think so. 1271 01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:05,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, that may be. 1272 01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:08,280 Speaker 14: I mean it's possible that was the case. That would 1273 01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:09,360 Speaker 14: be very cynical to say that. 1274 01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:09,520 Speaker 6: Ye. 1275 01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 14: But the hard thing is, well, that's right, as was 1276 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 14: the government of the day, as was the disinderdurned government's 1277 01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:18,520 Speaker 14: reaction to COVID. That was highly political as well, of course, 1278 01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 14: so there's politics everywhere year. But I think you know 1279 01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:24,120 Speaker 14: that they were lying on this convention that you know 1280 01:00:24,160 --> 01:00:26,480 Speaker 14: for politicians in public or on commissions of inquiry, a 1281 01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:28,360 Speaker 14: convention I was unaware of until I was made aware 1282 01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:30,120 Speaker 14: of it. Had advice over the last couple of days, 1283 01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:32,160 Speaker 14: by the way, but these are very unusual times, and 1284 01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:35,280 Speaker 14: some of the commentators have made the point that in Britain, 1285 01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:38,360 Speaker 14: the various prime ministers and the various senior officials did 1286 01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:40,760 Speaker 14: turn up and talk about this publicly because they were 1287 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,600 Speaker 14: unprecentered times. That's the very point of the matter, right. 1288 01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:46,080 Speaker 14: So I think they've done themselves damage already by saying no, 1289 01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:48,160 Speaker 14: we're not going to turn up publicly and talk about this, 1290 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,120 Speaker 14: because by doing so they might have actually got more 1291 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:53,120 Speaker 14: people on side with what they were trying to do. 1292 01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:55,320 Speaker 14: They did have some hard decisions to make. Whether we 1293 01:00:55,400 --> 01:00:57,280 Speaker 14: agreed with the decisions or not. Whether I agreed it's 1294 01:00:57,280 --> 01:00:59,960 Speaker 14: another matter. But I think they did themselves a disservice 1295 01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:02,200 Speaker 14: now by saying we won't talk about it. But that's 1296 01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:04,960 Speaker 14: down to them. I don't think the you know, forcing 1297 01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:06,240 Speaker 14: them to turn up lectually elp. 1298 01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:09,640 Speaker 3: In a court of law. If you're accused of murder 1299 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,320 Speaker 3: and you don't take the stand, you look guilty, and 1300 01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:14,600 Speaker 3: the same thing that's just happened, right, except, of course, 1301 01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:16,439 Speaker 3: I mean I should clarify that I'm accused of murder 1302 01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 3: at all. Now, Rob, you're a union man. Have the 1303 01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 3: teachers got us on board? 1304 01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:27,200 Speaker 19: The teachers typically can get offside in these disputes, and 1305 01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:30,240 Speaker 19: they'll be acutely aware of that. So I think that 1306 01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:34,200 Speaker 19: wait and see where these negotiations lead to. I'm not 1307 01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:37,560 Speaker 19: too concerned about it at the moment, and I think 1308 01:01:37,600 --> 01:01:40,240 Speaker 19: that the teachers have got some legitimate arguments. You would 1309 01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:43,120 Speaker 19: have thought that they could probably get them sorted out. 1310 01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:46,200 Speaker 19: It's a bit of a joke, this idea about, you know, 1311 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:49,040 Speaker 19: the government saying that they're not bargaining in good faith, 1312 01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:51,560 Speaker 19: because after all, the government has laid down some pretty 1313 01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:54,360 Speaker 19: strict guidelines as to what could be done in the negotiations. 1314 01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:56,520 Speaker 6: So is that good faith? I don't know. 1315 01:01:56,600 --> 01:01:58,120 Speaker 19: It might be there is that they'll be able to 1316 01:01:58,160 --> 01:01:58,919 Speaker 19: sort something out. 1317 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:01,240 Speaker 3: I think they might have to fill because I mean, here, 1318 01:02:01,240 --> 01:02:04,160 Speaker 3: look at thirty percent pay rise in five years is 1319 01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:05,680 Speaker 3: out the gate as it is? 1320 01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:09,400 Speaker 14: I agree, And of course a nine min old employer's advocate, 1321 01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:11,760 Speaker 14: Rob's an old union official, so we'll say aligne to you. 1322 01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:16,480 Speaker 14: These teachers are already getting four percent to seven and 1323 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:18,600 Speaker 14: a half percent anyway, because they're on a stepped pay 1324 01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:20,520 Speaker 14: increase each year, so that one percent is not one 1325 01:02:20,640 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 14: that's actually five to eight percent actually, as well as 1326 01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:26,439 Speaker 14: that they're already being paid, according to the union, about 1327 01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:28,840 Speaker 14: one hundred grand a year, which is not exactly some change. 1328 01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 14: So I think they've just got to get to the table. 1329 01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:32,920 Speaker 14: And I'm sure Rob is a good union official and 1330 01:02:32,920 --> 01:02:34,880 Speaker 14: the A is a good employers advocate, would say they've 1331 01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:37,000 Speaker 14: got to get to the table, try and sort it out, 1332 01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:38,880 Speaker 14: because if they do go on strike and they have 1333 01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:41,560 Speaker 14: to demonstrate to mums and dads that they had no 1334 01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:43,520 Speaker 14: choice but to And I don't think they demonstrated that 1335 01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:44,200 Speaker 14: just yet. 1336 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:48,000 Speaker 19: One of the very foy things I've learned, very early 1337 01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 19: things I learned in the union and the negotiating world 1338 01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:54,760 Speaker 19: was that outside people's opinions about claims and counterclaims are 1339 01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:58,440 Speaker 19: almost always wrong and almost always unhelpful. So I think 1340 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 19: almost let the teachers and the government sort of out 1341 01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:05,160 Speaker 19: themselves without us coming on who's right and who's wrong. 1342 01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:07,520 Speaker 3: Let's see how it goes. Thank you both, so don't 1343 01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:12,040 Speaker 3: help myself, Rob, Thank you both so much. Appreciated. Rob Campbell, 1344 01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:14,280 Speaker 3: Fellow Raleigh A huddled This evening had away from six. 1345 01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:18,560 Speaker 2: It's the Heather Duper c Allen Drive Full Show podcast 1346 01:03:18,680 --> 01:03:21,440 Speaker 2: on my Heart Radio powered by News Talk ZBI. 1347 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:26,400 Speaker 3: Heather, great interview. Thank you very much for letting the 1348 01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:29,000 Speaker 3: Israel DFM speak most media very one sided. I think 1349 01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:31,320 Speaker 3: she was correct in her assessment and that humas ultimately 1350 01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:33,080 Speaker 3: responsible for the plight of aid not getting through to 1351 01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:38,640 Speaker 3: Palestinian people. Cheers Pete. Listen, this is such a fraught subject, 1352 01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:43,880 Speaker 3: isn't it. Once upon a time? What a way to 1353 01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:46,840 Speaker 3: start a young five four ten years ago? Now she's 1354 01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:49,120 Speaker 3: time flies. Ten years ago. I went I went on 1355 01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 3: a trip to the US. It was one of those 1356 01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:52,960 Speaker 3: ones organized by the US Embassy in New Zealand, and 1357 01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:57,200 Speaker 3: they they got a whole bunch of people from around 1358 01:03:57,240 --> 01:04:00,840 Speaker 3: the world, you know, youngish people who they thought that 1359 01:04:01,080 --> 01:04:03,640 Speaker 3: we're going to be influencers or thinkers or whatever in 1360 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:05,480 Speaker 3: the future, and obviously a member of the media kind 1361 01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:07,240 Speaker 3: of fits into that category. So anyway, they got us 1362 01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 3: into Washington, took us around the US and stuff, and 1363 01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:13,320 Speaker 3: we got talking. It was people from Europe, Vatican City, 1364 01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:15,960 Speaker 3: you know, Georgia, Estonia, that kind of thing, whatever, the 1365 01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:18,920 Speaker 3: whole various other places as well, Africa and stuff, and 1366 01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:21,640 Speaker 3: we got talking about what was happening in the Middle East. 1367 01:04:21,680 --> 01:04:23,480 Speaker 3: And I really remember one of the guys who I 1368 01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 3: think was from Bosnia. It got really angry with me 1369 01:04:26,120 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 3: because I was of the view that, you know, I 1370 01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:31,320 Speaker 3: was all like, pacifist, pathifist, pathifists, you know, put down 1371 01:04:31,320 --> 01:04:33,400 Speaker 3: your weapons. And he was like, you have no idea 1372 01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:35,720 Speaker 3: what you were talking about. You live in New Zealand. 1373 01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:38,000 Speaker 3: No one can get to you, and even if they 1374 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:40,000 Speaker 3: wanted you, it wouldn't be worth the hassle. You guys 1375 01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:42,120 Speaker 3: are the safest people out there. You do not know 1376 01:04:42,160 --> 01:04:43,959 Speaker 3: what it feels like to be living with a threat 1377 01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:46,720 Speaker 3: of missiles, and that really stuck with me. And I 1378 01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:49,120 Speaker 3: think we have to remember that when we talk about 1379 01:04:49,120 --> 01:04:51,920 Speaker 3: the Middle East. I'm not picking sides here. I am 1380 01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:54,000 Speaker 3: on the side of the children. I just want those 1381 01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,400 Speaker 3: children in Gaza to be able to eat. I think 1382 01:04:56,440 --> 01:04:58,919 Speaker 3: the Israelis have a point that Hermas is nicking the aid, 1383 01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:01,000 Speaker 3: but I think the Palace d Indians have a point 1384 01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:03,000 Speaker 3: that if there is no aid, there is no aid 1385 01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:05,600 Speaker 3: to nick and the kids are dying. And in fact, 1386 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:07,840 Speaker 3: I would say, and I mean from my position, I 1387 01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:11,000 Speaker 3: almost I'm almost so in favor of the children that 1388 01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:13,200 Speaker 3: I would let Hummus nick the aid just to be 1389 01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:15,360 Speaker 3: able to feed the kids. I do not think either 1390 01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:16,920 Speaker 3: of these sides are good here. I don't think the 1391 01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:19,320 Speaker 3: IDF and the Israeli government is behaving well, nor do 1392 01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:21,560 Speaker 3: I think Hummus is behaving well. I feel terrible for 1393 01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:24,080 Speaker 3: the children caught in it. But the point that we 1394 01:05:24,120 --> 01:05:26,360 Speaker 3: are start, I mean, if that interview didn't tell you that, 1395 01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:28,000 Speaker 3: then what you need to understand is it is not 1396 01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:30,960 Speaker 3: simple when you're in that situation. If it was simple, 1397 01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:33,880 Speaker 3: we wouldn't be in that situation. Anyway, just fingers cross 1398 01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:35,560 Speaker 3: and prayers to God that the kids actually get some 1399 01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:37,840 Speaker 3: food at some stage in the near future and we're 1400 01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 3: able to help that situation. Four away from six, listen, 1401 01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:43,000 Speaker 3: I need to tell you about this inheritance case of Cape. 1402 01:05:43,560 --> 01:05:46,680 Speaker 3: So this isn't Sydney. So what happened is the brother 1403 01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:48,600 Speaker 3: dies of COVID. This is a couple of years ago. 1404 01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:51,000 Speaker 3: Now he doesn't leave a will. Now under New South 1405 01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:53,280 Speaker 3: Wales succession laws, if you die with the outer will 1406 01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:55,600 Speaker 3: your children get it. As you would imagine, the brother 1407 01:05:55,680 --> 01:05:58,640 Speaker 3: only had one son who would get everything, including a 1408 01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:02,920 Speaker 3: million dollar property and inn at Sydney. But the brother 1409 01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:07,320 Speaker 3: is not sure that the brother wants the stuff. He 1410 01:06:07,360 --> 01:06:09,760 Speaker 3: wants the granny to get it right, so he sets 1411 01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:12,360 Speaker 3: out to prove that the sun is not actually the 1412 01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:15,160 Speaker 3: son of the dead brother. So what he does is, 1413 01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:17,440 Speaker 3: while his brother is lying in the coffin dead, he 1414 01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:19,680 Speaker 3: cuts off part of his ear, and then the coffin 1415 01:06:19,720 --> 01:06:21,800 Speaker 3: lid shuts and they have the funeral ceremony and then 1416 01:06:21,800 --> 01:06:24,560 Speaker 3: the cremat and the next day he keeps the samples 1417 01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:27,760 Speaker 3: of his brother's ear in two glass jars in the freezer. 1418 01:06:28,120 --> 01:06:30,440 Speaker 3: And anyway, eventually he tries to prove that the sun 1419 01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:32,400 Speaker 3: is not his by getting at DNA sampled and they're like, 1420 01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:34,240 Speaker 3: what are you doing with bits of his ear? So 1421 01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:36,720 Speaker 3: he gets charged with interfering with the corpse. Then he 1422 01:06:36,760 --> 01:06:39,160 Speaker 3: takes a court case to try to obtain the human 1423 01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:42,320 Speaker 3: tissue from police for testing. He just failed in that 1424 01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 3: court case. Wild times an inheritance law in Sydney. A wow, 1425 01:06:49,280 --> 01:06:51,320 Speaker 3: try not to do that if he can, or Torohong 1426 01:06:51,440 --> 01:06:51,720 Speaker 3: is mayor. 1427 01:06:51,800 --> 01:06:59,720 Speaker 2: Next we're Business meets Insight.

It's seven past six now. 1437 01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:28,600 Speaker 3: The outgoing mayor of Uturohunga has had a crack at 1438 01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:30,880 Speaker 3: central government, saying it needs to stop using local government 1439 01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:34,240 Speaker 3: as a punching bag Max BacT. Max Baxter rather says 1440 01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:36,439 Speaker 3: his twelve year term has been enjoyable, but he's sick 1441 01:07:36,440 --> 01:07:39,520 Speaker 3: of the government dumping unfunded mandates on local authorities with 1442 01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:41,520 Speaker 3: no financial help. And he's with us now, I'm Max, 1443 01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:44,840 Speaker 3: your cureder, Heather, what have you not loved? 1444 01:07:46,880 --> 01:07:47,000 Speaker 4: Oh? 1445 01:07:47,080 --> 01:07:49,400 Speaker 25: Look, it's just getting incredibly challenging out there, and I 1446 01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:51,880 Speaker 25: think the rhetoric that's been throwing at local government in 1447 01:07:51,960 --> 01:07:55,400 Speaker 25: recent times is doing way more harm than good. I 1448 01:07:55,400 --> 01:07:57,720 Speaker 25: think it's about time the central government and local government 1449 01:07:57,760 --> 01:08:01,640 Speaker 25: work together rather than throwing barbs each other. And we've 1450 01:08:01,680 --> 01:08:04,000 Speaker 25: got elections in a few weeks time here now, and 1451 01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:07,640 Speaker 25: like I've seen a lot of elected members, mayors, fellow 1452 01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:10,320 Speaker 25: elected members that have been under a lot of pressure, 1453 01:08:10,360 --> 01:08:13,080 Speaker 25: a lot of criticism. There's been death threats, violence threats 1454 01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:16,280 Speaker 25: against people, and it's not helped by the rhetoric, this 1455 01:08:16,439 --> 01:08:19,799 Speaker 25: throne at local government, elected members by central government. 1456 01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:22,080 Speaker 3: I mean, look, we all want fights to stop and stuff, 1457 01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,000 Speaker 3: but they're going to it's going to happen, it's going 1458 01:08:24,040 --> 01:08:26,400 Speaker 3: to continue. So what is it that they've ordered you 1459 01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:29,360 Speaker 3: guys to do that's unfunded that's really got your goat? 1460 01:08:30,280 --> 01:08:33,280 Speaker 25: Yeah, I think we talk about a lot of legislative 1461 01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:35,840 Speaker 25: requirements and look a couple of things here that I 1462 01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:38,880 Speaker 25: think about big brother playing party with us. You know, 1463 01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:41,960 Speaker 25: still more to consents alone for us this year are 1464 01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:44,200 Speaker 25: going to be three hundred thousand dollars for a Toronto 1465 01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:47,280 Speaker 25: District council. Our auditing fees are two hundred and eighty 1466 01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:49,960 Speaker 25: thousand dollars for this year. And we keep on looking 1467 01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:52,439 Speaker 25: at those costs and legislation that comes on us. And 1468 01:08:52,479 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 25: I know the government is talking about it. Minister Bishops 1469 01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:56,840 Speaker 25: talking about cutting a lot of the red tape and 1470 01:08:56,880 --> 01:08:59,160 Speaker 25: I get that, but you know, these costs you think 1471 01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:02,120 Speaker 25: about a small commun unity in a small district, they're 1472 01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:05,040 Speaker 25: incredibly prohibitive when we're just trying to get things done. 1473 01:09:05,439 --> 01:09:07,839 Speaker 3: Sounds to me like this local water done well business 1474 01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:09,040 Speaker 3: is going to be a bit of a stuff up? 1475 01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:09,559 Speaker 3: Is it. 1476 01:09:11,000 --> 01:09:12,679 Speaker 25: Look gosh less? 1477 01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:13,240 Speaker 6: Wait? And see? 1478 01:09:13,280 --> 01:09:15,599 Speaker 25: I mean it's I think if a lot of these things, 1479 01:09:15,640 --> 01:09:17,360 Speaker 25: if the money was actually just given to us to 1480 01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:19,679 Speaker 25: do the job, rather than all the money that's spent 1481 01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:22,760 Speaker 25: setting up new entities, we could get a lot done. 1482 01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:24,200 Speaker 25: And I think if we go back to the storm 1483 01:09:24,240 --> 01:09:27,960 Speaker 25: water and consents for seawalls and the likes. If the 1484 01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:30,400 Speaker 25: money was there available for us to actually just do 1485 01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:32,360 Speaker 25: the work, wouldn't we get a lot more done? 1486 01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:35,639 Speaker 3: Okay? Now, what do you think of the political parties 1487 01:09:35,680 --> 01:09:37,880 Speaker 3: coming to local government, like actors just announced they're going 1488 01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:38,960 Speaker 3: to be standing candidates. 1489 01:09:40,160 --> 01:09:41,960 Speaker 25: No, I don't agree with it all. I mean, this 1490 01:09:42,040 --> 01:09:44,599 Speaker 25: is about local democracy. We're talking here. We're talking about 1491 01:09:44,640 --> 01:09:47,760 Speaker 25: citizens that really care for the communities in which they live, 1492 01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:50,280 Speaker 25: that want the best for their communities. And the last 1493 01:09:50,280 --> 01:09:54,559 Speaker 25: thing we need is some central government political overload and 1494 01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:56,479 Speaker 25: local government system, isn't. 1495 01:09:56,320 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 3: It, don't you think? I mean the problem that we've 1496 01:09:57,880 --> 01:10:00,360 Speaker 3: got is not a lot of people vote in local 1497 01:10:00,360 --> 01:10:02,479 Speaker 3: government anymore. And I think part of the problem macts 1498 01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:04,040 Speaker 3: is because we look at this list of people, go 1499 01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:06,280 Speaker 3: I don't know who this is. I don't know what 1500 01:10:06,280 --> 01:10:08,240 Speaker 3: they stand for, and it just feels just like too 1501 01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:11,639 Speaker 3: much mental load. So if you have a blue box 1502 01:10:11,720 --> 01:10:13,280 Speaker 3: or a pink box, or a red box or a 1503 01:10:13,280 --> 01:10:15,080 Speaker 3: green box, at least you know kind of roughly what 1504 01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:18,040 Speaker 3: they stand for. It's shorthand it gets us involved again. 1505 01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:18,639 Speaker 3: What do you think? 1506 01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:21,120 Speaker 25: No, then you ask the question, why do we have 1507 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:24,240 Speaker 25: local government? I mean local government is there about caring 1508 01:10:24,240 --> 01:10:26,360 Speaker 25: for the communities. And we've heard a lot of rhetoric 1509 01:10:26,400 --> 01:10:30,000 Speaker 25: around getting rid of the well beings, you know, the social, economic, environmental, 1510 01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:33,920 Speaker 25: and cultural aspects of what we do. If you get 1511 01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:36,280 Speaker 25: rid of those, who's going to deliver on that? And 1512 01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:38,600 Speaker 25: what's left once you take away those well beings in 1513 01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:41,320 Speaker 25: a community? That is what people get up for. They 1514 01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:44,719 Speaker 25: get up for to be locked after they're there for 1515 01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:48,519 Speaker 25: vibrant communities, So somebody has to deliver that. And with 1516 01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:52,000 Speaker 25: the erosion or potential erosion of local government, you'll get 1517 01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:54,280 Speaker 25: to the point where who is actually going to deliver 1518 01:10:54,320 --> 01:10:56,960 Speaker 25: on those because it's certainly not being delivered by central government. 1519 01:10:57,040 --> 01:10:57,439 Speaker 6: Currently. 1520 01:10:57,920 --> 01:11:00,960 Speaker 25: Local government is the last man standing, so we need 1521 01:11:01,000 --> 01:11:01,559 Speaker 25: to be there. 1522 01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:04,519 Speaker 3: So what about the argument that a whole bunch of 1523 01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:06,839 Speaker 3: stuff that we actually just used to do for ourselves 1524 01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:09,400 Speaker 3: and each other, like our neighbors and our family and 1525 01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:12,960 Speaker 3: our friends, we now expect these authorities to do for us. 1526 01:11:12,960 --> 01:11:15,160 Speaker 3: You shouldn't be relying on an authority for your well being. 1527 01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:17,160 Speaker 3: You should just be doing it as a community. 1528 01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:19,800 Speaker 25: I think we're local government for some of us. If 1529 01:11:19,800 --> 01:11:21,959 Speaker 25: you look at a council, we look at us ourselves 1530 01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:25,480 Speaker 25: as anchor institutions, and we're there to facilitate the opportunity. 1531 01:11:25,640 --> 01:11:28,360 Speaker 25: So somebody's got organized communities to do this. So we 1532 01:11:28,360 --> 01:11:31,160 Speaker 25: don't actually have to deliver as councils, but someone has 1533 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:33,440 Speaker 25: got to facilitate the opportunity. 1534 01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:37,000 Speaker 3: What about some communities just organize the street barbecue themselves. 1535 01:11:37,000 --> 01:11:39,439 Speaker 3: Why do we need a local government body to do that? 1536 01:11:39,920 --> 01:11:41,639 Speaker 25: Go on here there, it's a bit bigger than a barbecue, 1537 01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:43,680 Speaker 25: you know that is. I mean, we've got roadstock after it, 1538 01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:45,599 Speaker 25: rubbish to back up, we've got But. 1539 01:11:45,560 --> 01:11:47,639 Speaker 3: That's not well being, that's just your job. 1540 01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:50,200 Speaker 6: They are they really well being? 1541 01:11:50,560 --> 01:11:51,600 Speaker 3: That's infrastructure. 1542 01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:55,120 Speaker 25: Oh come on the road that you travel on that 1543 01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 25: hasn't got potholes. There's well being. For a farmer that 1544 01:11:58,160 --> 01:11:59,840 Speaker 25: there's exactly what he needs to have to get to do. 1545 01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:03,759 Speaker 25: So yeah, come on here. In a small community like ours, 1546 01:12:03,920 --> 01:12:06,840 Speaker 25: we're not building event seeds is, we're not building anything fancy. 1547 01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:08,680 Speaker 25: We're looking after our communities. 1548 01:12:08,680 --> 01:12:11,080 Speaker 3: So the vibrant No, no, I agree with that as 1549 01:12:11,080 --> 01:12:13,920 Speaker 3: we Okay, Well, if that's your well being, that's the 1550 01:12:13,920 --> 01:12:16,559 Speaker 3: wellbeing that I like, Max, Thank you very much, appreciate it, 1551 01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:20,200 Speaker 3: Max Baxter.

And on the face of a fall of 1618 01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:40,920 Speaker 4: one percent for the sheep number doesn't appear to be 1619 01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:45,360 Speaker 4: too bad. But worryingly, the breeding is the ones that 1620 01:15:45,400 --> 01:15:49,000 Speaker 4: produced the lambs have fallen by nearly two percent. Here's 1621 01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:51,760 Speaker 4: the numbers heather we're now in this country only have. 1622 01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:54,840 Speaker 4: When I say only, we only have twenty three point 1623 01:15:54,960 --> 01:15:58,760 Speaker 4: three million sheep.

There's about four sheep 1625 01:16:03,000 --> 01:16:06,200 Speaker 4: to every one of us now.

So we've seen a real decline and 1628 01:16:12,600 --> 01:16:14,840 Speaker 4: sheep numbers now. Beef and land New Zealand. This is 1629 01:16:14,920 --> 01:16:18,840 Speaker 4: part of their annual stock number survey. They're estimating that 1630 01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:21,640 Speaker 4: two point six million stock units have been lost to 1631 01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:26,839 Speaker 4: a forestation since twenty seventeen, and they're saying that despite 1632 01:16:26,840 --> 01:16:30,120 Speaker 4: the argument from some in the forestry industry or the 1633 01:16:30,160 --> 01:16:34,080 Speaker 4: carbon farming industry, a forestation is responsible for seventy eight 1634 01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:38,160 Speaker 4: percent of the total reduction in sheep and beef stock 1635 01:16:38,240 --> 01:16:41,720 Speaker 4: numbers since twenty seventeen. Heither, and that leads onto the 1636 01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:45,160 Speaker 4: story about what Federated Farmers are on about at the 1637 01:16:45,160 --> 01:16:47,479 Speaker 4: moment regarding the report back to Parliament. 1638 01:16:47,560 --> 01:16:50,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, they say the government isn't going far enough when 1639 01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:52,639 Speaker 3: it comes to banning the pines taking over productive farmland. 1640 01:16:52,640 --> 01:16:54,040 Speaker 3: What do they want the government to do? 1641 01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:56,920 Speaker 4: Well, go a bit further, be a bit tougher on 1642 01:16:56,960 --> 01:17:00,519 Speaker 4: the legislation. I don't know whether a nice suggested this 1643 01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:03,240 Speaker 4: to Wayne Langford, the president today on my show, whether 1644 01:17:03,280 --> 01:17:07,080 Speaker 4: the forestry spokesman who's also the new sheep and beef 1645 01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:09,559 Speaker 4: spokesman he took over from Toby Williams. I know that 1646 01:17:09,640 --> 01:17:11,639 Speaker 4: you spoke to Toby. He was the guy and behind 1647 01:17:11,960 --> 01:17:16,400 Speaker 4: to save our Sheep campaign. Well, Richard Dawkins said many 1648 01:17:16,439 --> 01:17:18,920 Speaker 4: farmers will be feeling a total sense of betrayal. That 1649 01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:21,599 Speaker 4: might be over egging at a week, but he did say, look, 1650 01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:24,760 Speaker 4: there's one silver lining. They've tightened the rules around the 1651 01:17:24,880 --> 01:17:28,360 Speaker 4: silly intent to plant tests. So what they were saying 1652 01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:32,800 Speaker 4: when they announced these restrictions at the early December last 1653 01:17:32,880 --> 01:17:36,360 Speaker 4: year was if you had some seedlings and you could 1654 01:17:36,400 --> 01:17:38,599 Speaker 4: prove that you'd bought them or an invoice, you could 1655 01:17:38,600 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 4: go ahead and plant. They're now saying tough. If you 1656 01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:44,080 Speaker 4: had the seedlings seedlings with no land to plant them on, 1657 01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:47,960 Speaker 4: that doesn't count as a clear intent to plant. I 1658 01:17:47,960 --> 01:17:52,120 Speaker 4: think what our federated farmers are disappointed about heather, in fact, 1659 01:17:52,200 --> 01:17:56,679 Speaker 4: to quote them, extremely disappointed, is that the ban whole 1660 01:17:56,720 --> 01:18:01,880 Speaker 4: farm conversions only applies to land use capability classes one 1661 01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:04,679 Speaker 4: to five. That's the good land. Okay, So the FEDS 1662 01:18:04,680 --> 01:18:07,640 Speaker 4: are saying, in reality, that's only about twelve percent of 1663 01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:11,760 Speaker 4: farm conversions were happening on that land. Anyhow, Dawkins said 1664 01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:15,120 Speaker 4: two thirds of sheep and beef farms are on classes 1665 01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:19,679 Speaker 4: six and seven land, that legislation doesn't apply to them. 1666 01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:22,280 Speaker 4: They can go one hundred percent if they want to. 1667 01:18:22,439 --> 01:18:26,120 Speaker 4: Federated farmers argue that every single farm in the country 1668 01:18:26,320 --> 01:18:29,360 Speaker 4: should be subject to the same twenty five percent carbon 1669 01:18:29,400 --> 01:18:33,960 Speaker 4: credit limit, no matter what it's our u SE rating is. 1670 01:18:34,120 --> 01:18:37,559 Speaker 4: So there you go. The Feds and the foresters are fighting. 1671 01:18:37,800 --> 01:18:40,200 Speaker 3: Yeah very much. So Hey, thanks very much, Jamie. Talk 1672 01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:41,920 Speaker 3: to you again next week. That's Jamie mckaie, host of 1673 01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:45,360 Speaker 3: the Country. Yeah, have you caught up on people's coffee yet, 1674 01:18:45,439 --> 01:18:46,920 Speaker 3: especially if you put money into it. Have you heard 1675 01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:49,360 Speaker 3: the news I'll run you through at six twenty one. 1676 01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:52,720 Speaker 1: If it's to do with money, it matters to you. 1677 01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:55,760 Speaker 2: Your business hour where the head duplic Ellen and it 1678 01:18:55,920 --> 01:18:59,559 Speaker 2: mas for Trusted Home Insurance Solutions news talks dB. 1679 01:19:00,400 --> 01:19:02,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, the local government is a flawed concept. I want 1680 01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:04,560 Speaker 3: nothing to do with Why would I bother voting? I 1681 01:19:04,680 --> 01:19:07,080 Speaker 3: need to get rogered and extorted by a bunch of hillbillies. 1682 01:19:07,160 --> 01:19:10,439 Speaker 3: The sooner that local local body government's centralized or run 1683 01:19:10,520 --> 01:19:12,960 Speaker 3: under political party lines, the sooner I will start participating 1684 01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:14,760 Speaker 3: in local body elections. Again, that's from herb. Do you 1685 01:19:14,840 --> 01:19:18,200 Speaker 3: know what. I still think it's a good idea. I 1686 01:19:18,240 --> 01:19:20,360 Speaker 3: still think it's a good idea. And what it would 1687 01:19:20,400 --> 01:19:22,160 Speaker 3: do is, you know you've got punters sitting around the 1688 01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:24,840 Speaker 3: council table at the minute going. I think we should 1689 01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:29,000 Speaker 3: spend money on what about a bi crack on Oriental 1690 01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:31,519 Speaker 3: Parade and we can make it raally, you know, like 1691 01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:34,960 Speaker 3: they just they spend like Dosco lights disco lights on 1692 01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:37,280 Speaker 3: Taranaki Street in Wellington. You know, they just come up 1693 01:19:37,280 --> 01:19:40,000 Speaker 3: with stupid stuff. I'll tell you what, and they get 1694 01:19:40,040 --> 01:19:42,040 Speaker 3: away with it. They get away with it because hardly 1695 01:19:42,040 --> 01:19:44,000 Speaker 3: anybody actually participates anymore. But I'll tell you what if 1696 01:19:44,000 --> 01:19:46,120 Speaker 3: they were belonging to let's just say the ACT Party 1697 01:19:46,560 --> 01:19:48,400 Speaker 3: and we started getting angry at the ACT Party, I 1698 01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:50,400 Speaker 3: bet you the ACT Party in central government start whipping 1699 01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:52,479 Speaker 3: them and making them make some sensible decisions as a 1700 01:19:52,479 --> 01:19:54,439 Speaker 3: result of it. Now, don't expect that kind of behavior 1701 01:19:54,439 --> 01:19:56,599 Speaker 3: from the Greens or Labor. They don't mind the spending. 1702 01:19:56,800 --> 01:19:58,240 Speaker 3: We're going to come to that at some stage in 1703 01:19:58,280 --> 01:20:00,719 Speaker 3: this show. But you will expect a a greater degree 1704 01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:04,439 Speaker 3: of rigor from parties on the right to do with spending. Therefore, 1705 01:20:04,479 --> 01:20:07,960 Speaker 3: I welcome political parties getting involved in local government. Now, 1706 01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:10,000 Speaker 3: if you like oh, by the way, it's six twenty five, If. 1707 01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:12,080 Speaker 1: You like Heather dupless Yellen. 1708 01:20:11,800 --> 01:20:14,600 Speaker 3: Magic, if you like People's Coffee, you need to know 1709 01:20:14,640 --> 01:20:17,360 Speaker 3: it's just being bought by the competitors Cutamoo Coffee, which 1710 01:20:17,360 --> 01:20:20,639 Speaker 3: is also a Wellington brand. Now, the interesting thing about 1711 01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:24,960 Speaker 3: this is that couple of three years ago, People's Coffee 1712 01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:28,200 Speaker 3: went crowdfunding and they wanted they wanted people to chuck 1713 01:20:28,200 --> 01:20:29,680 Speaker 3: some cash and so that they could compete in the 1714 01:20:29,720 --> 01:20:33,280 Speaker 3: supermarket wholesale market, and people put in a fair bit 1715 01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:35,479 Speaker 3: of money, like some people put in six hundred dollars, 1716 01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:38,880 Speaker 3: some people put in four hundred dollars. Whatever, these people 1717 01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:41,959 Speaker 3: will get nothing back from the sale of People's coffee. 1718 01:20:42,360 --> 01:20:44,320 Speaker 3: The guy who sold People's coffee says he's going to 1719 01:20:44,320 --> 01:20:45,600 Speaker 3: do his best to sell the plant, which is a 1720 01:20:45,640 --> 01:20:48,799 Speaker 3: couple of roasters, and then redistribute the capital to investors. However, 1721 01:20:48,840 --> 01:20:50,960 Speaker 3: he says, I want to be clear, even if this 1722 01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:53,040 Speaker 3: plant can be sold, it will be a small percentage 1723 01:20:53,040 --> 01:20:55,160 Speaker 3: of what you will put in. So perhaps a lesson 1724 01:20:55,560 --> 01:20:57,559 Speaker 3: in not getting involved with the crowdfunding if you can 1725 01:20:57,600 --> 01:21:02,160 Speaker 3: avoid it. Six twenty sacks for Allen Shoba's news for you. 1726 01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:10,280 Speaker 3: Donald Trump has have enough the names of the Kennedy 1727 01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:13,960 Speaker 3: Center honor recipients for twenty twenty five.

Is 1779 01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:39,679 Speaker 3: it for everybody? 1780 01:23:41,479 --> 01:23:43,720 Speaker 15: So for the last twelve years we've been helping so 1781 01:23:43,760 --> 01:23:47,320 Speaker 15: many ambitious kiwis getting into these amazing universities and they 1782 01:23:47,400 --> 01:23:49,479 Speaker 15: get these f one visas to stay in the country. 1783 01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:52,320 Speaker 15: And when I finished my own program, I didn't have 1784 01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:54,519 Speaker 15: to find a way to keep building Crimson in the States, 1785 01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:57,120 Speaker 15: and so I found this obscure visa category called the 1786 01:23:57,439 --> 01:23:59,760 Speaker 15: one visa, which helped me to actually begin being able 1787 01:23:59,800 --> 01:24:02,240 Speaker 15: to work in the US. And so the first folks 1788 01:24:02,280 --> 01:24:05,040 Speaker 15: we helped were students, ambitious kids that wanted to actually 1789 01:24:05,360 --> 01:24:07,639 Speaker 15: take advantage of these degrees and keep going. And then 1790 01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:09,920 Speaker 15: we realized actually there were all these high growth companies 1791 01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:12,559 Speaker 15: like Tracks in New Zealand that were trying to expand 1792 01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:15,040 Speaker 15: in the US market, and we could actually not just 1793 01:24:15,080 --> 01:24:17,960 Speaker 15: help individuals, but help whole teams, whole companies with a 1794 01:24:18,400 --> 01:24:21,719 Speaker 15: rapid expansion. So we've expanded from just students to companies 1795 01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:22,800 Speaker 15: and other organizations. 1796 01:24:23,720 --> 01:24:25,560 Speaker 3: Are these people who want to go over to the 1797 01:24:25,680 --> 01:24:28,559 Speaker 3: US temporarily or setup set up shop there permanently. 1798 01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:32,719 Speaker 15: So take a company like Zero or you know, for example, 1799 01:24:32,800 --> 01:24:35,400 Speaker 15: Holt or Rocket Labs. They initially start in New Zealand, 1800 01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:37,880 Speaker 15: but they want to have this massive ability to tap 1801 01:24:37,920 --> 01:24:40,360 Speaker 15: into the US market, which now has become, for example, 1802 01:24:40,439 --> 01:24:42,880 Speaker 15: Crimson's biggest market. So often they want to send stuff 1803 01:24:43,160 --> 01:24:45,200 Speaker 15: from the New Zealand team to America to crack the 1804 01:24:45,280 --> 01:24:48,479 Speaker 15: market higher local teams and then often bring those kivs 1805 01:24:48,520 --> 01:24:50,400 Speaker 15: back or you know, to a new market. And so 1806 01:24:50,520 --> 01:24:52,840 Speaker 15: often it's sort of the shop troops, those sales and 1807 01:24:52,920 --> 01:24:55,640 Speaker 15: marketers as revenue leaders, maybe the founders who want to 1808 01:24:55,680 --> 01:24:57,640 Speaker 15: go over there and get the business going. And so 1809 01:24:57,760 --> 01:25:00,719 Speaker 15: often it's about it's about global expansion qv companies. 1810 01:25:01,720 --> 01:25:04,200 Speaker 3: How do you think this business that's going on in 1811 01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:06,439 Speaker 3: the UK and the US, sorry at the moment with 1812 01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:09,519 Speaker 3: people ending up an ice attention scenes as including a 1813 01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:11,559 Speaker 3: Kiwi at the minute, is that going to put people off? 1814 01:25:13,680 --> 01:25:13,720 Speaker 4: No? 1815 01:25:13,920 --> 01:25:15,320 Speaker 15: So, you know, I've been on the ground in New 1816 01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:17,360 Speaker 15: York for last four years and there's definitely a lot 1817 01:25:17,360 --> 01:25:19,880 Speaker 15: of media hysteria around some of these ice attentions. But 1818 01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:22,320 Speaker 15: for a Kiwi or you know, someone who's building a 1819 01:25:22,360 --> 01:25:25,160 Speaker 15: company in the States, it's really two different realities. You know, 1820 01:25:25,280 --> 01:25:26,840 Speaker 15: it's kind of unfortunate, but I think that you know, 1821 01:25:27,160 --> 01:25:28,200 Speaker 15: it's really really different. 1822 01:25:28,240 --> 01:25:28,760 Speaker 6: Kettle of fish. 1823 01:25:28,840 --> 01:25:30,599 Speaker 15: So a lot of our folks are looking to move 1824 01:25:30,640 --> 01:25:33,200 Speaker 15: to places at New York, of California. These amazing hubs 1825 01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:37,599 Speaker 15: of economic activity, business opportunity, growth, opportunity, and naturally where 1826 01:25:37,640 --> 01:25:40,240 Speaker 15: our students and our companies are working with the focused on. 1827 01:25:41,320 --> 01:25:43,519 Speaker 3: Jamie, how much are you loving the fact that NCEA 1828 01:25:43,600 --> 01:25:44,360 Speaker 3: has been put on the bin. 1829 01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:48,280 Speaker 15: I'm glad it's in the trash, and you know it's 1830 01:25:49,360 --> 01:25:53,160 Speaker 15: it really honestly has been haunting students for a while now, 1831 01:25:53,240 --> 01:25:55,320 Speaker 15: because you know, I've seen twelve years of Kiwi's doing 1832 01:25:55,439 --> 01:25:59,120 Speaker 15: nca Cambridge and IV and you know, the reality is 1833 01:25:59,320 --> 01:26:02,360 Speaker 15: NCAA has the internals that are really low integrity. A 1834 01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:05,040 Speaker 15: lot of students now use GPT. It isn't world class. 1835 01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:08,120 Speaker 15: It's super confusing, it's like hieroglyphics, and so getting rid 1836 01:26:08,160 --> 01:26:10,400 Speaker 15: of that and having a truly world class standard actually 1837 01:26:10,439 --> 01:26:12,880 Speaker 15: means dou Kibis can compete on the world's biggest stages. 1838 01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:16,200 Speaker 15: People talk about equity education, but actually the way to 1839 01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:19,320 Speaker 15: start equity is really to have people taking a curriculum, 1840 01:26:19,439 --> 01:26:21,879 Speaker 15: a public school curriculum that actually can take you anywhere. 1841 01:26:22,160 --> 01:26:25,040 Speaker 15: And so I'm pumped about this and honestly it's very inspiring. 1842 01:26:25,439 --> 01:26:27,320 Speaker 3: Do you think they've made the right call here though, 1843 01:26:27,400 --> 01:26:32,320 Speaker 3: in setting up yet another New Zealand that bespoke certificate 1844 01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:34,759 Speaker 3: or should we actually have gone with ib or Cambridge. 1845 01:26:36,200 --> 01:26:38,680 Speaker 15: So, I mean Singapore took the A levels from the 1846 01:26:38,800 --> 01:26:41,120 Speaker 15: UK and they tuned them up, made them even more rigorous, 1847 01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:44,360 Speaker 15: incorporated some local history and that's been wildly effective there. 1848 01:26:44,880 --> 01:26:47,479 Speaker 15: I think as long as the curriculum that is being 1849 01:26:47,520 --> 01:26:51,880 Speaker 15: developed has you know, research around international maths and English 1850 01:26:51,880 --> 01:26:55,000 Speaker 15: standards and it's really exam based. There aren't these kind 1851 01:26:55,040 --> 01:26:57,720 Speaker 15: of ways to get around those exams with internals that 1852 01:26:57,800 --> 01:27:00,800 Speaker 15: aren't you that aren't greaded properly. I think that could 1853 01:27:00,800 --> 01:27:03,599 Speaker 15: be a really good outcome, you know, for a COSF 1854 01:27:03,600 --> 01:27:06,839 Speaker 15: efficiency standpoint. Taking it an international curriculum is also very exciting. 1855 01:27:07,120 --> 01:27:08,760 Speaker 15: But I think the approach is going to look great 1856 01:27:08,800 --> 01:27:12,200 Speaker 15: and honestly it's a massive step forward. And also, you know, 1857 01:27:12,240 --> 01:27:14,080 Speaker 15: there are many folks and for example the Ministry of 1858 01:27:14,120 --> 01:27:16,640 Speaker 15: Education that are quite vested in the national curriculum and 1859 01:27:16,760 --> 01:27:18,800 Speaker 15: so you know, I mean this also helps to get 1860 01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:19,599 Speaker 15: their buy in as well. 1861 01:27:19,840 --> 01:27:22,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, Jamie, hey, thanks very much, enjoy your flight. That's 1862 01:27:22,280 --> 01:27:24,639 Speaker 3: Jamie Beaton, Crimson Education founder. 1863 01:27:25,160 --> 01:27:25,360 Speaker 1: Ever. 1864 01:27:26,560 --> 01:27:29,040 Speaker 3: So you know what if you have a minute, if 1865 01:27:29,280 --> 01:27:30,880 Speaker 3: you've got a question that you would like the COVID 1866 01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:33,600 Speaker 3: inquiry to have to have as these four flick it 1867 01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:35,240 Speaker 3: through to me. I've got another twenty minutes of the show, 1868 01:27:35,280 --> 01:27:36,800 Speaker 3: and I quite like to see what people would like 1869 01:27:36,920 --> 01:27:38,760 Speaker 3: to have asked. So I've just been thinking about it 1870 01:27:38,840 --> 01:27:40,640 Speaker 3: myself a little bit lately. I reckon i'd like to 1871 01:27:40,920 --> 01:27:43,960 Speaker 3: somebody actually sent a question through earlier. It was something 1872 01:27:43,960 --> 01:27:47,160 Speaker 3: along the lines of when Auckland had gone into lockdown, 1873 01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:50,559 Speaker 3: so we're talking August twenty one. By that stage, did 1874 01:27:50,640 --> 01:27:54,520 Speaker 3: they realize that the COVID vaccine did not stop transmission, 1875 01:27:54,680 --> 01:27:57,400 Speaker 3: which made the whole point of a lockdown kind of 1876 01:27:57,520 --> 01:28:00,680 Speaker 3: pointless or made or at least no, it didn't make 1877 01:28:00,840 --> 01:28:04,000 Speaker 3: the lockdown pointless. It made forcing people to take the 1878 01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:06,320 Speaker 3: vaccine that they didn't want to take pointless, and the 1879 01:28:06,400 --> 01:28:08,760 Speaker 3: mandates pointless. So if you have a question, I quite 1880 01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:10,200 Speaker 3: like to know. It's one of the questions that I 1881 01:28:10,240 --> 01:28:13,640 Speaker 3: would have. Also would be around the spending that Grant was, 1882 01:28:14,200 --> 01:28:16,160 Speaker 3: you know, like you know, Grant got his little money 1883 01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:18,800 Speaker 3: hose out, he just went nuts with it. Now it 1884 01:28:18,920 --> 01:28:22,719 Speaker 3: seems to me that Grant is actually I suspect Grant 1885 01:28:22,800 --> 01:28:28,080 Speaker 3: is starting is irritated by our constant criticism and the 1886 01:28:28,200 --> 01:28:32,360 Speaker 3: Treasury's criticism recently, which came out last week, was it 1887 01:28:32,479 --> 01:28:34,720 Speaker 3: on Friday. Because of the spending, Grant has got a 1888 01:28:34,760 --> 01:28:37,839 Speaker 3: little help called Tony Toby Moore, who was an advisor 1889 01:28:37,880 --> 01:28:40,479 Speaker 3: in his office from December twenty twenty onwards, and he's 1890 01:28:40,560 --> 01:28:44,120 Speaker 3: just submitted today an opinion piece to the Herald kind 1891 01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:46,479 Speaker 3: of explaining what they were up to and what his 1892 01:28:46,720 --> 01:28:49,800 Speaker 3: argument for why they spent so much was that they 1893 01:28:49,960 --> 01:28:52,760 Speaker 3: thought that the tax revenue would cover it. So they 1894 01:28:52,840 --> 01:28:54,840 Speaker 3: thought they could blow as much cash as they did 1895 01:28:54,920 --> 01:28:57,519 Speaker 3: because it would be okay. Corporates would keep on paying, 1896 01:28:57,520 --> 01:29:00,000 Speaker 3: and companies and businesses and so on would and individual 1897 01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:01,960 Speaker 3: like you and I would keep paying tax and therefore 1898 01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:04,120 Speaker 3: would be fine, and the surplus would be achieved shortly 1899 01:29:04,120 --> 01:29:07,080 Speaker 3: and blah blah blah. With that projection was completely out, 1900 01:29:07,160 --> 01:29:09,639 Speaker 3: like way out by Treasury. And of course, as we've seen, 1901 01:29:09,680 --> 01:29:12,439 Speaker 3: the economy has fallen off and nothing has None of 1902 01:29:12,479 --> 01:29:14,679 Speaker 3: this has come true. I mean obviously that you could 1903 01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:17,639 Speaker 3: argue any right thinking person would have predicted that given 1904 01:29:17,680 --> 01:29:20,120 Speaker 3: that the country had been closed for god only knows 1905 01:29:20,160 --> 01:29:22,280 Speaker 3: how long by that stage, two years or whatever. So 1906 01:29:22,280 --> 01:29:24,920 Speaker 3: if you're going to shut down entire sectors like international 1907 01:29:25,080 --> 01:29:28,640 Speaker 3: education and tourism, etc. You're probably going to have a 1908 01:29:28,680 --> 01:29:31,280 Speaker 3: bit of a fall off on the tax revenue, but whatever. Anyway, 1909 01:29:32,040 --> 01:29:34,360 Speaker 3: so he thought they could keep blowing money because they 1910 01:29:34,400 --> 01:29:35,640 Speaker 3: were going to get heaps of money in, which is 1911 01:29:35,680 --> 01:29:38,519 Speaker 3: also not very smart as living to the extent of 1912 01:29:38,560 --> 01:29:41,800 Speaker 3: your budget. Also, what he says is that Treasury was 1913 01:29:41,880 --> 01:29:44,799 Speaker 3: telling them different things at the same time. So Treasury 1914 01:29:44,920 --> 01:29:47,719 Speaker 3: was telling them, hey, spending that much money is probably 1915 01:29:47,840 --> 01:29:50,320 Speaker 3: not a good idea, but also could you spend more money? 1916 01:29:50,400 --> 01:29:53,040 Speaker 3: He says, as late as October twenty twenty two, Treasury 1917 01:29:53,160 --> 01:29:56,040 Speaker 3: was advising the Minister of Finance to increase the allowance 1918 01:29:56,080 --> 01:29:58,600 Speaker 3: for the next budget from four point five billion to 1919 01:29:58,720 --> 01:30:01,519 Speaker 3: five billion in the set In the half year Update 1920 01:30:01,560 --> 01:30:03,920 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty two, Treasury express concern about what it 1921 01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:06,840 Speaker 3: described as the largest fall in real government consumption since 1922 01:30:06,920 --> 01:30:09,000 Speaker 3: nineteenninety seven. Now, look, I don't know enough to know 1923 01:30:09,040 --> 01:30:10,760 Speaker 3: whether he's telling the truth here. I imagine he is. 1924 01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:13,519 Speaker 3: I imagine that Treasury did give them conflicting advice. But 1925 01:30:13,640 --> 01:30:15,599 Speaker 3: do you know what it's the role of the people 1926 01:30:15,760 --> 01:30:17,880 Speaker 3: in that position. The Minister of Finance and all the 1927 01:30:17,920 --> 01:30:21,120 Speaker 3: people around him in that case to make the right decision. 1928 01:30:21,320 --> 01:30:23,320 Speaker 3: If you're just going to go and blame the officials 1929 01:30:23,479 --> 01:30:25,920 Speaker 3: every single time you get something wrong, why don't we 1930 01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:28,400 Speaker 3: just make the officials the Minister of Finance if you 1931 01:30:28,479 --> 01:30:31,080 Speaker 3: can to turn your brain off and let Treasury run everything, 1932 01:30:31,120 --> 01:30:33,600 Speaker 3: which is make Treasury the Minister of Finance. Minister of 1933 01:30:33,640 --> 01:30:36,080 Speaker 3: Finance is in that position to cut through the bs 1934 01:30:36,320 --> 01:30:38,519 Speaker 3: and decide the right thing to do and demonstrably in 1935 01:30:38,640 --> 01:30:41,280 Speaker 3: this instance Grant Robertson did not make the right decision. 1936 01:30:41,439 --> 01:30:42,479 Speaker 3: Seventeen away from seven. 1937 01:30:42,800 --> 01:30:46,920 Speaker 2: Whether it's macro microbe or just plain economics, it's all 1938 01:30:47,040 --> 01:30:50,840 Speaker 2: on the Business Hour with Heather Duplicy Allen and Mas. 1939 01:30:51,000 --> 01:30:54,960 Speaker 1: For trusted Home Insurance Solutions use talks that'd be here. 1940 01:30:55,040 --> 01:30:57,840 Speaker 3: The Dentons, the law firm has represented the New Zealand 1941 01:30:57,880 --> 01:30:59,840 Speaker 3: Labor Party for a long time, so it's no surprise 1942 01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:02,840 Speaker 3: they're giving Labor Party MP's advice to steer clear of 1943 01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:05,519 Speaker 3: the Royal Commission because they are protecting their interests. Katha's 1944 01:31:05,560 --> 01:31:09,000 Speaker 3: bang on fourteen away from seven. Indo Brady UK correspondent 1945 01:31:09,040 --> 01:31:10,920 Speaker 3: with us now Hey in dn Hey. 1946 01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:12,920 Speaker 9: Heather great to speak to you again, how likely. 1947 01:31:12,840 --> 01:31:14,400 Speaker 3: Do you think it is that Ukraine is going to 1948 01:31:14,439 --> 01:31:14,960 Speaker 3: be carved up? 1949 01:31:16,240 --> 01:31:19,360 Speaker 9: Well, that's the big fear in Europe certainly. And look, 1950 01:31:19,400 --> 01:31:22,759 Speaker 9: there was the last ditch zoom call yesterday with President Trump, 1951 01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:27,120 Speaker 9: organized by the German Chancellor Friedrich Mertz, urging him not 1952 01:31:27,360 --> 01:31:30,000 Speaker 9: to listen to Putin, not get involved in a carve up, 1953 01:31:30,320 --> 01:31:33,000 Speaker 9: and that Ukraine must be represented at the next round 1954 01:31:33,040 --> 01:31:36,280 Speaker 9: of negotiations. Now what I'm hearing this morning here is 1955 01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:40,719 Speaker 9: that Vladimir Zelenski is due in the UK this morning 1956 01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:43,400 Speaker 9: and he will head straight to Number ten Downing Street 1957 01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:46,360 Speaker 9: for a meeting with kir Starmer. So this will be 1958 01:31:46,400 --> 01:31:48,640 Speaker 9: a high profile You'll see a lot of pictures in 1959 01:31:48,680 --> 01:31:50,720 Speaker 9: the next couple of hours. This will be a high 1960 01:31:50,760 --> 01:31:55,560 Speaker 9: profile meeting and just you know, showing the world that 1961 01:31:55,720 --> 01:31:59,280 Speaker 9: the UK has Ukraine's back. So the big fear tomorrow 1962 01:31:59,360 --> 01:32:02,120 Speaker 9: is that we end up some sort of a botched deal. 1963 01:32:02,600 --> 01:32:05,160 Speaker 9: The phrase we keep hearing from Americans is that will 1964 01:32:05,200 --> 01:32:09,040 Speaker 9: be a West Bank style occupation. And I don't think 1965 01:32:09,080 --> 01:32:11,480 Speaker 9: anyone should be basing a peace deal or a ceasefire 1966 01:32:11,760 --> 01:32:14,600 Speaker 9: on anything that Israel has done in the past. It 1967 01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:15,800 Speaker 9: simply doesn't work. 1968 01:32:16,320 --> 01:32:18,639 Speaker 3: What are the chances that there is actually that's something 1969 01:32:18,720 --> 01:32:20,479 Speaker 3: concrete that comes out of this. Is it not a 1970 01:32:20,520 --> 01:32:22,080 Speaker 3: greater chance that the whole thing falls over? 1971 01:32:24,560 --> 01:32:28,360 Speaker 9: I think the big, big fear is the President Trump 1972 01:32:28,600 --> 01:32:32,680 Speaker 9: has no understanding of Putin's mentality, his thinking, or his 1973 01:32:32,880 --> 01:32:36,639 Speaker 9: relentless meat grinder approach to the war in Ukraine. Putin, 1974 01:32:37,439 --> 01:32:40,120 Speaker 9: if he calls a cease fire, if they manage to 1975 01:32:40,160 --> 01:32:44,400 Speaker 9: get a cease fire, he will simply replenish, restock, and 1976 01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:47,200 Speaker 9: go again. And you know this is a guy Putin 1977 01:32:47,360 --> 01:32:50,040 Speaker 9: on record is saying to George W. Bush as far 1978 01:32:50,160 --> 01:32:52,400 Speaker 9: back as two thousand and eight that he doesn't even 1979 01:32:52,439 --> 01:32:55,640 Speaker 9: believe Ukraine is a country. So he's not going to 1980 01:32:55,720 --> 01:32:59,479 Speaker 9: stop at Luhansk and Crimea and other regions that they 1981 01:32:59,560 --> 01:33:03,880 Speaker 9: already have illegally occupied. The Putin plan is all of 1982 01:33:04,040 --> 01:33:07,320 Speaker 9: Ukraine eventually, if not this year, if not next decade, 1983 01:33:07,560 --> 01:33:10,920 Speaker 9: he will keep going. So we need someone to stop him. 1984 01:33:10,960 --> 01:33:13,599 Speaker 9: And I think the big, big series concern in Europe 1985 01:33:13,760 --> 01:33:18,479 Speaker 9: is that Trump thinks he's dealing with someone that you know, 1986 01:33:18,720 --> 01:33:19,920 Speaker 9: is going to give his word. 1987 01:33:19,760 --> 01:33:20,160 Speaker 6: And keep it. 1988 01:33:20,680 --> 01:33:23,440 Speaker 3: And how much trouble is David Lemmy in over the fishing. 1989 01:33:24,640 --> 01:33:28,160 Speaker 9: So you would think that some of the army of 1990 01:33:28,320 --> 01:33:31,840 Speaker 9: minions who surround themselves with our modern politicians would have 1991 01:33:31,960 --> 01:33:34,400 Speaker 9: seen fit to go and buy a rod license. Last 1992 01:33:34,439 --> 01:33:39,000 Speaker 9: week for JD. Vance and David Lammy, they called a photocol. 1993 01:33:39,080 --> 01:33:40,360 Speaker 9: They got the photographers in. 1994 01:33:40,800 --> 01:33:40,960 Speaker 13: Oh. 1995 01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:44,000 Speaker 9: The Vance family are here on holidays. It's amazing JD 1996 01:33:44,280 --> 01:33:48,960 Speaker 9: is fishing with David Lammy. No, no understanding of fishing 1997 01:33:49,280 --> 01:33:53,240 Speaker 9: the environment. The Environment Agency rules if you go fishing 1998 01:33:53,280 --> 01:33:55,719 Speaker 9: on a lake or a river in the United Kingdom, 1999 01:33:55,960 --> 01:33:59,920 Speaker 9: you need a rod license. Any five year old fisher 2000 01:34:00,040 --> 01:34:03,760 Speaker 9: man or girl would tell you this. Lammy and Jdvans 2001 01:34:03,840 --> 01:34:07,200 Speaker 9: decided to go fishing, and then someone pointed out, ups, 2002 01:34:07,280 --> 01:34:10,439 Speaker 9: we haven't got fishing licenses. So now that it's been 2003 01:34:10,520 --> 01:34:14,280 Speaker 9: reported to the Environment Agency by Lammy himself, he's looking 2004 01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:17,200 Speaker 9: at a five thousand dollars fine. Apparently he has gone 2005 01:34:17,200 --> 01:34:21,080 Speaker 9: and bought retrospective licenses. But we'll see if that cuts 2006 01:34:21,080 --> 01:34:21,920 Speaker 9: the mustard. 2007 01:34:22,120 --> 01:34:25,479 Speaker 3: Now, okay, so tell me, just just paint me the 2008 01:34:25,560 --> 01:34:27,120 Speaker 3: picture of Andrew swearing at them. 2009 01:34:27,240 --> 01:34:29,560 Speaker 13: Go on. So here we go. 2010 01:34:30,160 --> 01:34:31,760 Speaker 9: We're in a heat wave this week. You might be 2011 01:34:31,800 --> 01:34:33,280 Speaker 9: able to hear the air con. This is the only 2012 01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:35,240 Speaker 9: room I've found in the building with air come by 2013 01:34:35,280 --> 01:34:37,320 Speaker 9: the way, it's it's been twenty eight to thirty two 2014 01:34:37,439 --> 01:34:40,400 Speaker 9: celsius most days this week in the South of England. 2015 01:34:40,840 --> 01:34:44,160 Speaker 9: So some workmen have been brought into the Royal Estate 2016 01:34:44,320 --> 01:34:48,559 Speaker 9: to install a speed bump just near the Royal Lodge 2017 01:34:48,680 --> 01:34:52,559 Speaker 9: on Windsor Great Park, thirty two bedroom mansion that Andrew 2018 01:34:52,640 --> 01:34:55,760 Speaker 9: rattles around him with his ex wife Sarah Ferguson. Count 2019 01:34:55,800 --> 01:34:59,320 Speaker 9: the bedrooms thirty two. There are two adults in that property. 2020 01:34:59,400 --> 01:35:03,160 Speaker 9: No wonder chain out So anyway, there have been reports 2021 01:35:03,320 --> 01:35:07,160 Speaker 9: of someone driving like an idiot a great speed regularly 2022 01:35:07,280 --> 01:35:11,240 Speaker 9: around the estate. Wonder who that could be? And workmen 2023 01:35:11,280 --> 01:35:13,840 Speaker 9: are brought in to put in a speed bump. So 2024 01:35:14,439 --> 01:35:17,920 Speaker 9: toiling away for probably I'm guessing about twenty five dollars 2025 01:35:17,960 --> 01:35:20,840 Speaker 9: an hour, these poor fellas in the heat wave, breaking 2026 01:35:20,880 --> 01:35:23,280 Speaker 9: their backs, digging out the road, putting in a speed bump, 2027 01:35:23,520 --> 01:35:28,080 Speaker 9: and along comes Prince Andrew on a horse. He slows down, 2028 01:35:28,439 --> 01:35:30,880 Speaker 9: he looks down at the workmen and word for word 2029 01:35:31,320 --> 01:35:33,719 Speaker 9: he says, what the f are you doing? 2030 01:35:33,920 --> 01:35:34,080 Speaker 17: Now? 2031 01:35:34,800 --> 01:35:37,439 Speaker 9: That was how he greeted the workmen on the Royal Estate. 2032 01:35:37,880 --> 01:35:40,560 Speaker 9: Funnily enough, they weren't happy it's ended up in the 2033 01:35:40,640 --> 01:35:43,479 Speaker 9: papers this week and given all of the headlines this 2034 01:35:43,560 --> 01:35:45,439 Speaker 9: guy is created in the last two weeks with the 2035 01:35:45,520 --> 01:35:48,360 Speaker 9: new book about his life and lifestyle and how he 2036 01:35:48,479 --> 01:35:51,200 Speaker 9: treats people, you would think Andrew might want to keep 2037 01:35:51,240 --> 01:35:53,720 Speaker 9: a low profile. But there we go, the gift that 2038 01:35:53,880 --> 01:35:54,960 Speaker 9: keeps on taking. 2039 01:35:55,479 --> 01:35:59,880 Speaker 3: What a knob. Hi, thank you in I appreciate it. Yeah, 2040 01:36:00,680 --> 01:36:05,160 Speaker 3: h Brady UK Correspondent. Let's be honest, ay, I mean, 2041 01:36:05,200 --> 01:36:07,519 Speaker 3: he is one of our princes, isn't he. But if 2042 01:36:07,560 --> 01:36:09,719 Speaker 3: he was living in New Zealand and pulling that condition, 2043 01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:12,040 Speaker 3: Nanigan just sort him out, wouldn't we go around there 2044 01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:13,880 Speaker 3: tell him off? He wouldn't be a prince for long 2045 01:36:14,120 --> 01:36:16,519 Speaker 3: nine Away from seven It's the. 2046 01:36:16,600 --> 01:36:21,200 Speaker 2: Heather topsy Alan Drive Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 2047 01:36:21,240 --> 01:36:22,320 Speaker 2: by News Talk ZEBBI. 2048 01:36:23,320 --> 01:36:25,599 Speaker 3: Wow, you know what, I didn't expect that many texts 2049 01:36:25,920 --> 01:36:28,080 Speaker 3: on what you would like answered. But this is the 2050 01:36:28,160 --> 01:36:30,240 Speaker 3: value of having these people front up and answer these 2051 01:36:30,320 --> 01:36:32,320 Speaker 3: questions in public because there are so many questions we 2052 01:36:32,360 --> 01:36:34,280 Speaker 3: want answered. And look, I think the COVID Commission will 2053 01:36:34,320 --> 01:36:36,880 Speaker 3: probably answer them in written form, but really, who reads 2054 01:36:36,920 --> 01:36:39,439 Speaker 3: those reports? Heh, who reads those reports? Sitting there and 2055 01:36:39,520 --> 01:36:42,240 Speaker 3: watching Jacinda, though, answer them. Would we get up in 2056 01:36:42,240 --> 01:36:45,439 Speaker 3: the middle of the night for that, wouldn't we? Heather? Oh, Heather, 2057 01:36:45,800 --> 01:36:48,639 Speaker 3: anybody who used that sort of language that Andrew just used, 2058 01:36:48,720 --> 01:36:51,519 Speaker 3: install on somebody installing another speed bump would be doing 2059 01:36:51,560 --> 01:36:53,519 Speaker 3: the Lord's work very shortly. Thank you, Nick. Okay, here 2060 01:36:53,560 --> 01:36:56,320 Speaker 3: we go, Heather. My question for the COVID inquiry is 2061 01:36:56,520 --> 01:36:58,519 Speaker 3: is it true that Jinda and Co's handling of the 2062 01:36:58,600 --> 01:37:02,280 Speaker 3: pandemic saved over twenty lives. That's a good question, actually, 2063 01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:04,840 Speaker 3: because Cindy still trots that number out in her book. 2064 01:37:05,120 --> 01:37:06,920 Speaker 3: But I don't think that that is I think that 2065 01:37:07,000 --> 01:37:09,720 Speaker 3: there's so much debate about it, she could probably be 2066 01:37:09,840 --> 01:37:14,479 Speaker 3: accused of m misinformation. Hither, when we had ninety percent 2067 01:37:14,520 --> 01:37:17,160 Speaker 3: of the vaccine update, my question is this, which is 2068 01:37:17,200 --> 01:37:19,880 Speaker 3: way above any known herd immunity, why did they then 2069 01:37:20,400 --> 01:37:24,200 Speaker 3: move to mandates? Good question. Hither. By mid to late 2070 01:37:24,280 --> 01:37:26,519 Speaker 3: twenty twenty, this is the question many of us at 2071 01:37:26,560 --> 01:37:29,080 Speaker 3: home were listening online to interviews with frontline medical stuff 2072 01:37:29,080 --> 01:37:30,720 Speaker 3: in other countries, and they were talking about the early 2073 01:37:30,800 --> 01:37:33,200 Speaker 3: treatment protocols that they were developing and using and how 2074 01:37:33,280 --> 01:37:35,560 Speaker 3: effective it was here though, the whole time people with 2075 01:37:35,640 --> 01:37:38,479 Speaker 3: COVID were basically told to stay home, keep up the fluids, 2076 01:37:38,479 --> 01:37:41,280 Speaker 3: and come to hospital only when you have trouble breathing. 2077 01:37:41,520 --> 01:37:44,280 Speaker 3: Why were we not learning from the medicos overseas. Hither 2078 01:37:44,320 --> 01:37:47,120 Speaker 3: here's my COVID question. I was in full ppe gear, 2079 01:37:47,200 --> 01:37:48,960 Speaker 3: so why it wasn't I allowed to see my mum 2080 01:37:49,080 --> 01:37:51,280 Speaker 3: dying in hospital? I will never forget that, m as 2081 01:37:51,320 --> 01:37:54,280 Speaker 3: I can imagine you will never Hither. Here's my question. 2082 01:37:54,360 --> 01:37:56,519 Speaker 3: How much extra did they pay for the emergency vacine 2083 01:37:56,600 --> 01:37:58,880 Speaker 3: vaccines that they brought from Spain and Portugal that were 2084 01:37:58,880 --> 01:38:00,760 Speaker 3: flown in with only two days of supply left. And 2085 01:38:00,880 --> 01:38:03,400 Speaker 3: it just goes on and on. These all great questions. Anyway, 2086 01:38:04,600 --> 01:38:06,840 Speaker 3: hopefully they have to front up and answer them. Great 2087 01:38:08,160 --> 01:38:10,479 Speaker 3: great news on a kind of grim a on a 2088 01:38:10,600 --> 01:38:14,800 Speaker 3: just frankly a grim subject. Polky has been has been 2089 01:38:14,960 --> 01:38:17,840 Speaker 3: back to the court room today for a procedural hearing 2090 01:38:17,920 --> 01:38:19,760 Speaker 3: before the coronial in quest in to the death of 2091 01:38:19,840 --> 01:38:23,120 Speaker 3: his wife, Pauline Hannah, and Polky has indicated might be 2092 01:38:23,200 --> 01:38:27,920 Speaker 3: prepared to give evidence for the coronial inquiry. Now, I'm 2093 01:38:28,040 --> 01:38:30,640 Speaker 3: up for that. You up for that, I'm up for that. 2094 01:38:31,240 --> 01:38:35,080 Speaker 3: Should do it polky. I'm starting to feel I'm just 2095 01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:37,639 Speaker 3: starting to wonder how much how much of this attention 2096 01:38:37,760 --> 01:38:41,519 Speaker 3: for Philip Poulkinghorn is enjoying. But anyway, we'll find out 2097 01:38:41,880 --> 01:38:43,600 Speaker 3: when he decides whether he's going to be taking that 2098 01:38:43,760 --> 01:38:44,680 Speaker 3: stand or not. 2099 01:38:45,040 --> 01:38:48,320 Speaker 20: Hans talking Heads burning down the house to play us 2100 01:38:48,320 --> 01:38:51,519 Speaker 20: out tonight. David Berne is probably best known as the 2101 01:38:51,560 --> 01:38:53,120 Speaker 20: front man of the Talking Heads, and I don't think 2102 01:38:53,160 --> 01:38:54,880 Speaker 20: he likes that He's best known as the front man 2103 01:38:54,960 --> 01:38:57,160 Speaker 20: of Talking Heads, But could he rather be known for Well, 2104 01:38:57,240 --> 01:38:58,960 Speaker 20: the thing is, it's been thirty four years since they 2105 01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:01,080 Speaker 20: split up, and he's been making music since then.
