• 0:09
  Speaker 1: moving News talks.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: They'd be six after five. Welcome to Monday.
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: What does Trump's all in, all out blockade mean for
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: the straight We'll talk to a former CIA intelligence officer
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: on the talks over the weekend that ended with no deal,
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: Mark Mitchell on the cyclone for US Andrew here to
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: talk Warriors and hurricanes.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: This morning.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: The agenda.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: It's Monday, depending the April jd Evan says no deal
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: after those talks.
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: The bad news is that we have not reached the agreement.
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: And I think it's bad news for a RAN much
• 0:37
  Speaker 4: more than it's bad news for the United States of America.
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: So we go back to the United States having not
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: come to an agreement. We've made very clear what our
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: redlines are, what things we're willing to accommodate them on,
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: and what things we're not willing to accommodate the mine.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: So what Trump has gone and done after those talks
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: is announce a all all none policy, a blockade of
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: the straight of horror moves.
• 0:58
  Speaker 5: We're very disappointed with NATO, were very very disappointed that
• 1:02
  Speaker 5: they didn't come. Now they want to come, and they
• 1:04
  Speaker 5: want to help with the straight and it won't take
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: long to clean it out. So we're going to clean
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: out the straight and they'll be able to use the
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: strad in not too long.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Addition, let's go to Hungary.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: So Victor Auburn probably going to get turfed out in
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: the next few hours. After sixteen years at the top,
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: turnouts already hit record levels, so they're interested in it.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: They're going out and voting seventy four percent and voting
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: is still not done yet. This mobilization, this turnout with
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: data definitely does not suggest that one party seems to
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: have like a massively a massive advantage above the other.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you about Mayer, who's the guy that's probably
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: going to be the next leader in a second. Over
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: the weekend, the four artemists two astronauts returned from their
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: moon sort of fly by with a dramatic splashdown in the.
• 1:49
  Speaker 6: Pacific splashdown confirmed Gopy splash down waiting on VLDR. Splashdown
• 1:55
  Speaker 6: confirmed at seven oh seven pm Central time five or
• 1:58
  Speaker 6: seven pm Pacific time. From the pages of Jules Verne
• 2:02
  Speaker 6: to a modern day mission to the Moon, a new
• 2:04
  Speaker 6: chapter of the Exploration of our Celestial neighbor is complete.
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: I spoke to a former astronaut last week who had
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: been up at the International Space Station for a year
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: said when he got home his heart was thirty percent
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: smaller than winning left because you don't get much of
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: a workout up there.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: News and views you trust to start your day. It's
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: early edition with Ryan Bridge and Spark for business technology
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: that keeps business moving, news talks.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: There'd be eight after five, nine nine the number to text.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: Just you watch over the next six months, mark my words.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: New Zealand First is going to start eating Labour's lunch.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: We've kind of spoken about this before, but this is
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: an MMP election, as they always are since the nineties.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Voters back winners, and it's pretty clear from polling that
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: the current lot is going to get back in.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: We know that.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: The question then becomes not what party you support or
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: want to protest vote for, which is what I think
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: people doing with labor at the moment, but rather which
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: party you want to have the most power of those
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: most likely to actually govern. That's the important part about EMMP.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: New Zealand First goes for the workers. It's been going
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: against against neoliberalism. You would have heard Winston State of
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: the Nation speech, very anti neoliberalism, which your labor voters
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: will like, economic nationalism which your labour voters will like,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: anti asset sales which your labor voters will like, renationalizing
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: the power companies, which your labor voters will like. Arguably
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: more labor than labor today New Zealand. First, now, this
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: is not unprecedented. The Democrats went for Trump. Former Democratic
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: voters went for Trump, the automakers' unions. This is back
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four. And this is why I keep
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: banging on about the possibility of Winston Peter's becoming prime
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: minister for a.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Year or perhaps half a term.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I don't think that's outside the realms of possibility. Luxon
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: has shown himself more than agile and power sharing, not
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: just the deputy prime minister role, but the traditional prime
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: ministerial duties as well, with Nicola Willison fuel arguably the
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: biggest COVID sort of earthquake like moment of his first
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: term thus far. This relies on Winston having leverage, which,
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: of course Winston, being the seasoned MMP player that he is,
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: has managed to create by not ruling out labor entirely,
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: only Hipkins.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: So the door is ajar.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: And it's opened just enough to scare the NATS into
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: submission on any number of issues, the only caveat being
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: acts stomach for Winston's demands. Clean you to watch in
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: that space ten after five BRIDGEB. We'll get to Mark
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Mitchell on the cyclone next, the cyclone that didn't happen
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: for most people in the way that perhaps they thought
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: it would. We'll get to that next. Also, I will
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: explain to you what Trump means by all all, all
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: none on the strait of Horn Moves, News Talks VB the.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: News you need this morning and the in depth analysis
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: early edition with Ryan Bridge and Spark for Business Technology
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: that keeps Business Moving News TALKSB.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Five thirteen on News TALKSB.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: So Trump has tweeted on this truth social thing overnight
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: that he will blockade the straight up holl moves and
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: he will demine it. So two different things. What's been
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: happening here is Iran has been tolling, and you when
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: you look at the live traffic data, you can see
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: that the ships are going along the coast of Iran.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: And they're doing that because the ratings have said, well,
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: we've mined the place, so you better follow the route
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: that we tell you to follow, and we will toll
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: you when you come up close to the border. So
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: we've had a tiny number of vessels going through on
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: a daily basis, and now there is a toll going on,
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: so a toll for the Ayatolla. Trump's now going to say,
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: I will blockade this. So if you don't let all
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: ships through, then you can let none of the ships through,
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: and we will demine the whole place with the help
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: of some NATO allies.
• 5:55
  Speaker 7: It need be a mine out there somewhere that nobody
• 5:58
  Speaker 7: knows about.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: But then, and this is world extortion, how will the
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: United States ensure that the mines are removed in the
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Strait of Hormos?
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: So we have minesweepers there now, we have highly sophisticated
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: underwater mine sweepers, which are the latest and the greatest.
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: But we're also bringing in more traditional mine sweepers. And
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: so I understand is the UK and a couple of
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: other countries are sending mine.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: Sweepers, right, So we're going to go to the US
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: and get the latest on that. AT's about ten to
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: two this morning, Ryan Bridge, let's talk about the cyclone
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: seems to have been and gone. Eight hundred properties were
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: evacuated across the North Island. Looks like none at this stage.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: We're actually flooded. Mark Matchall, Emergency Management Minister with us
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: this morning. Minister, Good morning, Good morning, Ryan. So what
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: do we dodge a bullet?
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I did, we did.
• 6:47
  Speaker 8: Really it was I mean, we're out of dealt with
• 6:49
  Speaker 8: head and pects. It's been a mostor evak force. So
• 6:51
  Speaker 8: we've had ten local states emugency. We've had we've actually
• 6:55
  Speaker 8: HD several thousand houses that were evacuated and in about
• 7:00
  Speaker 8: fourteen thousand without power. So it has been a significant
• 7:04
  Speaker 8: event for us. But the good news was that everyone
• 7:07
  Speaker 8: was well prepared, well positioned, and so we've been able
• 7:10
  Speaker 8: to sort of keep those impacts to a minimum.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: Of those houses that were evacuated, did any of them
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: actually flood that they need to be?
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: I guess it's the question.
• 7:18
  Speaker 8: Yes, some of them. Some of them have flooded, but
• 7:20
  Speaker 8: a lot of them were precautionary evacuations and that was
• 7:24
  Speaker 8: the right thing to do because you know, this weather
• 7:28
  Speaker 8: event could have been much worse for us. We were
• 7:30
  Speaker 8: lucky that it actually started to move out to the
• 7:33
  Speaker 8: east and now it's sort of it's left the North
• 7:36
  Speaker 8: Island altogether. It's sort of moving southeast and thankfully should
• 7:40
  Speaker 8: pass the west of the Cheddam Islands.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: How many houses flooded, I haven't.
• 7:45
  Speaker 8: An exact number in terms of how many have flooded.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: I know that I'm heading.
• 7:48
  Speaker 8: Over to a Hope, Fokotani and Potoquy today. There was
• 7:53
  Speaker 8: anoundation at a Hope so we'll go and check the
• 7:56
  Speaker 8: damage on that. I'll get a proper update this morning
• 7:59
  Speaker 8: at about thirty. With all those numbers all.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: Right, Minister, I went round just in my area in
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: Auckland on Sunday morning and most of the businesses they
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: were closed. It was an orange warning, you know. I
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: guess the risk is that next time there's a warning,
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: the businesses will open because nothing happened this time.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: So what do we do about that should they have opened.
• 8:19
  Speaker 8: Well, they can use their own danger sense in terms
• 8:22
  Speaker 8: of what they do. But one thing I would say
• 8:24
  Speaker 8: is that certainly there is no room for complacency at
• 8:27
  Speaker 8: all we deal with these weather events. We've been through
• 8:30
  Speaker 8: a tragedy as a country with you know, with an
• 8:32
  Speaker 8: event earlier in the year at the Mount and also
• 8:36
  Speaker 8: Welcome Pay and we lost the farm up around a
• 8:39
  Speaker 8: Pookey as well. They're dangerous without a doubt, so you know,
• 8:43
  Speaker 8: there's no room for complacency. When I became minister there
• 8:46
  Speaker 8: sort of there was a report that came to me
• 8:48
  Speaker 8: from Sigerian Mataprii. One of the things that one of
• 8:52
  Speaker 8: the issues that we do face is there's an optimism
• 8:55
  Speaker 8: bias sort of sits inside the system and as key
• 8:57
  Speaker 8: we have got a sort of a Shelby right attitude.
• 8:59
  Speaker 8: But these weather events are serious. They ipect people and they.
• 9:03
  Speaker 9: And we can lose people.
• 9:05
  Speaker 8: So, like I said, we're always going to make sure
• 9:08
  Speaker 8: that we take every step in every measure to keep
• 9:10
  Speaker 8: people in properly safe.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: All right, Marke, appreciate your times. Wanting Mark Mitchell Emergency
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: Management Minister time at seventeen after five. I'll give you
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: my thoughts on that at twenty five after next Andrew in.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: The Sports the first Word on the News of the
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Day Early edition with Ryan Bridge and Spark for Business
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Technology that keeps Business Moving Newstalks EDB.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: Five nineteen on Newstalks EDB So Victor Mayer is the
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: guy that's probably going to lead Hungary, and goodbye to
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: Auburn who's been there for sixteen years. But interestingly, Victor Mayer,
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: who's much younger, is forty five. He had a poster
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: of Victor auburn or hanging over his bed as a
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: child because he idolized him. This is back when he
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: was a part of the pro democracy movement. You could
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: argue he's probably gone the other way now, but may so.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: He's the one that will take over if the Poles
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: eventuate and the result reflects the Poles going into it.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: He has been criss crossing the country at a rapid
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: pace in the lead up to this election. He's done
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: six speeches a day and people around him describe him
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: as somebody with a short temper and a style that
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: can be abrasive at times, but he gets the job done.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: So there you go. Will you do it today? We'll
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: find out in a couple of hours. Twenty after five,
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: Ryan got a sport with Andrew Morning.
• 10:22
  Speaker 10: Andrew Morning, Ryan.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: There'll be a lot of happy Warriors fans after the
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: hoodoo sort of been broken.
• 10:28
  Speaker 10: That's a pretty good way to bake the hodo, was it?
• 10:30
  Speaker 10: Thirty eight fourteen or so against the Storm and yeah,
• 10:34
  Speaker 10: they've been that bogey team for so long. But gee,
• 10:36
  Speaker 10: the Warriors, they look pretty convincing there. I mean, just
• 10:39
  Speaker 10: so combative and yeah putting it just yeah, physicality that
• 10:44
  Speaker 10: they brought to it. And in the what I think
• 10:46
  Speaker 10: what three answer trisals in the first or twenty minutes
• 10:48
  Speaker 10: of the second half something like that, it was pretty
• 10:51
  Speaker 10: impressive to watch from the Warrior's perspective, keeping the faith,
• 10:56
  Speaker 10: et cetera. And what they move into third. Now West's
• 10:59
  Speaker 10: moving back into second overnight with their victory, so that
• 11:03
  Speaker 10: means and the Panthers at the top of the table
• 11:05
  Speaker 10: on points differentials, so it's still pretty tight there at
• 11:07
  Speaker 10: the top. But yeah, Warriors great. This this time last week,
• 11:12
  Speaker 10: I think were reflecting on their demise.
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: We were saying that this would be the beginning of, yeah,
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: the slow end. Hey the supercars so well, the only
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: thing I really caught up with the Supercars that the
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: weekend was the fact they canceled Sunday or postponed Sunday
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: until christ Church.
• 11:26
  Speaker 10: They've raced on Saturday and Ryan Wood has got the
• 11:30
  Speaker 10: local victory there and I think a first for Toyosa
• 11:33
  Speaker 10: are coming into the competition, and yeah, it's a nightmare
• 11:37
  Speaker 10: for organized, isn't it. When you've got a cyclone on
• 11:40
  Speaker 10: the way, etc. You've got to be cautious. You don't
• 11:43
  Speaker 10: want to be too cautious. But then you've got to
• 11:45
  Speaker 10: take fans into accounts and all the sponsors and all
• 11:49
  Speaker 10: the money that's involved with setting up a race. And yeah,
• 11:52
  Speaker 10: they've had to they've had to cancel a Sunday race,
• 11:54
  Speaker 10: but yeah it will be moved, etcetera. And so hopefully
• 11:59
  Speaker 10: that they'll.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: Get something back for that.
• 12:01
  Speaker 10: But it's some difficult situation logistically to be able to
• 12:05
  Speaker 10: work out a.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: Bit of a battle for Carlos Orberg. I note that
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: Trump was watching the fight over the weekend in Miami.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: But bit of a battle for him with his leg
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: as well. I saw them just a few clips of that.
• 12:16
  Speaker 10: It did look like that, and yes, well I guess
• 12:18
  Speaker 10: he's done. Well, it's not my cup of tea. I
• 12:20
  Speaker 10: must admit bashing each other in the head, etc. And
• 12:24
  Speaker 10: with our issues of concussum these days, Ryan, but nonetheless
• 12:29
  Speaker 10: an outstanding achievement in his field.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: And yeah, you have to.
• 12:32
  Speaker 10: Say a pretty courageous effort if he was indeed on
• 12:36
  Speaker 10: one knee therefore that you know after did take the knock. Yes,
• 12:42
  Speaker 10: so Trump was watching, was.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: He he was? How you final round of the Masters.
• 12:48
  Speaker 10: That's the exciting event for me this morning. I think
• 12:50
  Speaker 10: it's a potential thriller with Rory McElroy and Cam Young
• 12:54
  Speaker 10: currently you know they'll be in the final group at
• 12:56
  Speaker 10: least Young leading the way on eleven under. But you've
• 12:59
  Speaker 10: got to Victor Hoven's an outstanding start this morning. He
• 13:02
  Speaker 10: is seven under for the day, six hundred overall. I
• 13:05
  Speaker 10: think he's moved into a shear of night so working
• 13:07
  Speaker 10: as well the leaderboard.
• 13:08
  Speaker 8: Not as much pressure on of course if you're.
• 13:10
  Speaker 10: Playing, but later on the little bit earlier on the
• 13:12
  Speaker 10: day through that as opposed to coming down the eighteenth
• 13:14
  Speaker 10: at AUGUSTA.
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: Now, it's good to see you, Andrew Ortison with Sport.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: It is twenty three minutes after five on.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: Your Monday morning, Bryan Bridge.
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: So the UK has just come out, well, the BBC's
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: done a report saying they understand the UK is not
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: going to be involved in this blockade of the Strait
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: of horr moves. They keep saying stuff like we continue
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: to support the freedom of navigation and the opening of
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: the Strait, but then they don't actually do anything about it.
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: They do say they're working with the French. They say
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: they're working with other partners to protect freedom of navigation,
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: but what does that actually mean? And thesh you're getting

• 14:12
  Speaker 3: The TV news. The only thing they were battling was
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: the battle, the struggle to find pictures of anything actually

  Speaker 3: and they didn't need to be. There is a risk
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: here of the boy who cried wolf, But I also
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: don't think that we need to have an existential national
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: conversation about whether this was overhyped or not. The forecasters
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: do their thing, They tell you what is coming or
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: their best guess of what's coming. Then it's up to
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: us to make our own decisions based on the information,
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: based on our own experience and our personal judgment.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: That's life.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: The businesses who decided to close yesterday before anything had
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: actually happened lost to day's trade. The ones who didn't didn't.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: Maybe next time they'll make a different call. After all,
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: Auckland was only under an orange watch. The media coverage
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: was over the top.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: It always is.
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: Remember they make money off events like this. Eyeballs on screens.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: I noticed before every video of on the stuff site
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: yesterday of the ocean lapping at a sand dune, there
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: was an ad for Tower Insurance paying for it. This
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: is what they do, and they will do what they do.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: But you can't tell Met Service to not report the weather,
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: can you? Otherwise, what's the point in met service? They're
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: damned if they do, and damned if they don't. Those forecasters.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: We're all responsible ultimately for our own lives, and ultimately
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: we can decide if we're safe enough to stay home
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: or to go get a flat white from the local
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: Robert Harris and the Robert Harris can decide whether they open.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: And if you want to go out kitesurfing or surfing
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: in the storm, all.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: Power to you.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: You might die or you might have an awesome Sunday.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: Either way, it'll be your informed choice.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: Pray in Bridge.
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: Twenty eight minutes after five Ryan from Tiawanga. We were
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: evacuated three times. The storm was absolutely nothing, idiots, Ryan
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: Mark Mitchell is an outstanding minister, smashing that the Civil Defense portfolio,
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: says Grant.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: Ryan.
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: I think the language used by most media outlets was ridiculous,
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: i e. Deadly wind, deadly rain, and dead the waves.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: Definitely think that this will eventually lead to people not
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: listening when something actually happens. I mean that's the risk,
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: isn't it. But then, as I said, they tell you
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: nothing's happening and something happens, and you'll be upset too,
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: So they kind of have to do what they do,
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: and you have to use your brain when you're given
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: the information. Nine two nine two is the number to
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: text now. On Friday they had the Council and the
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: government announced an Auckland deal and Wayne Brown was asked
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: on urn Z on Friday afternoon about which where will
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: the bridge go across the White to Matar? And he
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: said basically, Meola Reef.
• 17:01
  Speaker 11: What ones these things as economics? You know where New
• 17:06
  Speaker 11: Zealand can't afford these sort of ridiculous world class things.
• 17:11
  Speaker 11: We've got to have economically viable, affordable, sensible infrastructure. And
• 17:18
  Speaker 11: I've been building that myself all my life.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: So what the deal says is that the government must
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: consult the Council on projects, including where the water Matar
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: crossing goes. So Wayne has anything to do with that,
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: It'll be Meola Reef, thank you very much. Rather than
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: getting rid of the yachts at West Tavern. Coming up
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: to half past five here on News Talks, there'd be
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: We're live to the States for the latest on the blockade.
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: The Trump's announced overnight all ahead for your Monday.
• 17:44
  Speaker 12: Morning is if we meet it here, then we made it.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines on early edition with Ryan
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Bridge and Spark for Business Technology that keeps Business Moving
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: News Talks that'd be.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: Twenty four away from six News Talks the f B
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: Great Tavy Company on this Monday morning. This is from
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: Zane Bryan Brent Crude Trading starts ten am today expect
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty plus a barrel because of Trump's
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: nutcase decision to totally totally blockade the straight of horn Moons,
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: which is true, I mean any and there was only
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: a few of them, but any ships that were getting through,
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: any oil tankers that we're getting through, won't get through
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: if what he says comes to fruition, which is an
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: all or nothing policy. I don't know if you'll quite
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: go that high, but yet it'll probably have a bump.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: They finished the week Brent crewed at ninety four point
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: twenty six a barrel. That compared us with the peak
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: of one hundred and nineteen forty five during the war.
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: And remember before the war is about seventy two dollars
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: a barrel. JP Morgan reckons it'll stay above one hundred
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: for this quarter.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: And then it should. He is off from the second
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: half of the year. You're on news talks. Heb Ryan
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: brick Tonedin with Color Morning.
• 18:52
  Speaker 13: Callum morning.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: Right, you've got a charity walk, Yeah, we do.
• 18:57
  Speaker 13: A young student here is setting off on an epick
• 19:00
  Speaker 13: walk in Europe for charity.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: This is twenty two year old Olivia Charles.
• 19:05
  Speaker 13: She's about to walk a thousand k's for the families
• 19:08
  Speaker 13: of premature babies here.
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: In New Zealand.
• 19:10
  Speaker 13: So she's going to walk what's called the Camino de
• 19:12
  Speaker 13: Santiago trail across France, Spain and Portugal. You can contribute
• 19:16
  Speaker 13: on give a little for the Little Miracles Trust, which
• 19:19
  Speaker 13: supports thousands of families here with babies and neonatal intensive
• 19:22
  Speaker 13: care units each year. Olivia says this charity is close
• 19:25
  Speaker 13: to her heart. She's had friends who has spent time
• 19:27
  Speaker 13: in the unit and she expects this walk will take
• 19:30
  Speaker 13: her about two months.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: How's your weather.
• 19:34
  Speaker 13: We've got showers, possibly heavy and thundery this afternoon, light
• 19:37
  Speaker 13: winds nineteen the height.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: Nice callum. Thank you.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: Claires in Christ this morning, Claire, Good morning. Lower Salwyn Huts.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: The leastholder's situation there, what's going on? What's the latest?
• 19:47
  Speaker 14: Yeah, this is a community of people that have been
• 19:49
  Speaker 14: facing potential immediate eviction from their homes at Lower Salwyn Huts.
• 19:54
  Speaker 14: The Department of Conservation has now announced that they are
• 19:56
  Speaker 14: giving those lease holders a final ten year can see
• 20:00
  Speaker 14: before they will have to leave for good. It's a
• 20:02
  Speaker 14: flood prone site. They consider it no longer viable long
• 20:05
  Speaker 14: term due to the rising levels at Lake Allasmere. Now
• 20:09
  Speaker 14: forty four hot owners have been approved for this extra decade.
• 20:12
  Speaker 14: Three have been declined. That's due to debt that they owe.
• 20:16
  Speaker 14: Counselor Elizabeth Munt says this is a much more humane
• 20:19
  Speaker 14: approach than the forced exits which have happened nearby the
• 20:22
  Speaker 14: Green Park huts just in July, which left many people homeless.
• 20:26
  Speaker 14: She says she's really pleased there is some certainty for
• 20:28
  Speaker 14: these people who have likely found themselves in a very
• 20:31
  Speaker 14: vulnerable position.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: All right, how's our weather party.
• 20:35
  Speaker 14: Clardian Christchurch Westeries turning northerly and high of twenty one degrees.
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: Nice on, Thank you Max and Wellington Morning Max, good morning.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: You've got the wastewater and the ocean water again.
• 20:45
  Speaker 12: Yeah, that's right. There was quite a rainy Sunday which
• 20:49
  Speaker 12: unfortunately meant to untreated, unscreened wastewater pouring into our coast
• 20:54
  Speaker 12: from about five thirty in the evening from yesterday. It
• 20:56
  Speaker 12: is still ongoing as well, which means trouble right around
• 21:00
  Speaker 12: the bay. Stay out of the water entirely for the
• 21:03
  Speaker 12: next three days at least, is the official advice. Keep
• 21:05
  Speaker 12: an eye on those updates. No time prem yet either
• 21:08
  Speaker 12: for fixing the plants. With wetter days to come heading
• 21:10
  Speaker 12: into winter. How's your weather mostly cloudy with occasional rain,
• 21:14
  Speaker 12: stronger norwesteries nineteen the hay.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: Thank you very much. Neither an Auckland morning.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: Never good morning the entire I mean we've said this
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: so many times it's not surprised, but the entire Auckland
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: rail network will be closed today, tomorrow and Wednesday.
• 21:26
  Speaker 15: Correct and why the testing for the city rail Link.
• 21:31
  Speaker 15: So this is a critical step for ensuring the City
• 21:33
  Speaker 15: rail Link will be reliable and safe. They have kind
• 21:37
  Speaker 15: of prepared for this, so we have in the past
• 21:39
  Speaker 15: and the last month been saying it's happening. It's happening.
• 21:41
  Speaker 15: But just in case you forgot about that and you
• 21:43
  Speaker 15: think you're going to jump on a train, No, no
• 21:45
  Speaker 15: you're not. But Auckland Transport they're going to have almost
• 21:48
  Speaker 15: one hundred rail replacement buses, so they'll be operating today, Tomorrow, Wednesday,
• 21:53
  Speaker 15: keep people moving and there's going to be special express
• 21:57
  Speaker 15: options for those you know on the Southern and Western
• 21:59
  Speaker 15: line as well, So that's good news and customers are
• 22:02
  Speaker 15: encouraged to plan ahead, you know, use the eighty app
• 22:05
  Speaker 15: use that app first. Yeah, so that's about it.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: Really fantastic Neva. How's our weather.
• 22:11
  Speaker 15: Showers heavy for a time, possible possible thunderstorms in the
• 22:16
  Speaker 15: afternoon and evening. Still Wall twenty.
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: Two is a high brilliant Neva. Lovely to see you.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: It is twenty to six News talks'b So the Iranian Navy,
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: this is the one that Trump blew to the bottom
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: of the ocean. There's about one hundred and fifty five
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: ships and they have they have sunk all of them.
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: They're all sitting at the lying at the bottom of
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: the ocean right now. But the battleships that they use
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: were basically just for prestige. They were an occasional long
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: range deployments or long range trips. They won't be doing
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: any long range deployments anytime soon. But the bit that
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: they and the part that they really needed to keep
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: their hands on, which they have largely this is the
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: revolution regard, is the little speedboats that they have. Sixty
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: percent of the Revolutionary regards. This is from the Wall
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: Street Journal via the Washington Institute. Sixty percent of those speedboats,
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: those attack craft remain intact, and that's what they're using
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: to choke the strait. At the moment, only four ships
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: crossed through the strait in the days after the ceasefire.
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: That was the lowest this month, and iran Is told
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: mediator Is basically we will keep it to a dozen
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: max a day and we will tell them that's why
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: nothing's been happening now. They've also issued to anyone who
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: was in the area and a ship, they've issued a
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: message over the radio friendly Hello from the Iranians. Basically,
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: talk to us and we'll steer you around the mines
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: that we've.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: Stuck in there.
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: Eighteen to six. If you're in the market for a
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: premium seven seater family suv, then the new Volvo XC
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: ninety B five Ultra Bright Mild Hybrid is well worth
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: a look. Starting at one hundred and nineteen nine nine
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: nine plus on road costs, it is a great deal
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: and it's a strong value proposition for what you get,
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: and what you get is considerable air suspension for a
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: noticeably smoother ride and you will feel that when you're
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: in it. Built in Google integration, this is seamless navigation,
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: voice control, that sort of stuff. A Harman Carden Premium
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: sound system so you can play your bangers, loud, panoramic sunroof,
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: head up display, seven seats designed for real family life,
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: that's road trips, that school runs, everything in between. It
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: is beautiful Scandinavian design, clean and considered. Volvo safety technology
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: remains one of the most comprehensive in the category.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: It's what they're known for.
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: And on top of all of that, every XC ninety
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: Ultra comes with a five year warranty and a three
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: year service plan, so you're covered well beyond the purchase.
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: If you want a premium suv that does everything well
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: and looks the part doing it, the Volvo XC ninety
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: B five Ultra is available now at Volvo retailers nationwide.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: Bryan Bridge time.
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: Is called to six. Let's go to Gevin Gray out
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: of the UK. Gavin Trump says the blockade is going
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: to include some NATO allies, but we're hearing that the
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: UK ain't one of them.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: What do you know, well.
• 25:12
  Speaker 16: The government so far here, Ryan hasn't really said a
• 25:15
  Speaker 16: great deal on the record, but both broadcast as BBC
• 25:19
  Speaker 16: and Sky are saying it's understood the UK won't take
• 25:22
  Speaker 16: part in monitoring or continuing this blockade. That Donald Trump
• 25:26
  Speaker 16: is said to be introducing to the Strait of Horne Moose.
• 25:29
  Speaker 16: That says Donald Trump says that NATO and the UK
• 25:33
  Speaker 16: will provide mind sweepers. Now mind sweepers had been offered
• 25:36
  Speaker 16: by the UK before in order to try and effectively
• 25:40
  Speaker 16: be it defensively to keep the straight open. But we
• 25:43
  Speaker 16: haven't heard any confirmation yet from the government. But if
• 25:46
  Speaker 16: there were any any doubt in anyone's mind about how
• 25:49
  Speaker 16: serious this is, it's being reported that Europe could see
• 25:52
  Speaker 16: jet fuel shortages if the Strait of horn Moose does
• 25:56
  Speaker 16: not open in the next three weeks. The trade body
• 25:58
  Speaker 16: for European airports is warning that the Gulf represents a
• 26:02
  Speaker 16: roughly half of all Europe's imports for aviation fuel and
• 26:05
  Speaker 16: without it they are going to run dry soon. That
• 26:08
  Speaker 16: could have a big impact on the smaller airports first
• 26:11
  Speaker 16: and then the larger airports, and of course without the flights,
• 26:14
  Speaker 16: that's not just going to affect holidays but business trips
• 26:17
  Speaker 16: as well. This is extremely, extremely serious, and this warning
• 26:20
  Speaker 16: is coming within the month.
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: They say, givin how long do we get a result
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: out of Hungary?
• 26:26
  Speaker 16: Well, I think it could be sometime yet, because they've
• 26:28
  Speaker 16: had a record turnout. The polls closed just three hours ago. Now,
• 26:33
  Speaker 16: the current Prime Minister, Victor Auban, he's hoping for a
• 26:35
  Speaker 16: fifth consecutive election victory today. He spent sixteen years in power,
• 26:40
  Speaker 16: but all the opinion polls are suggesting that the opposition
• 26:46
  Speaker 16: party Peta Maga could actually win. Why does this matter, Well,
• 26:50
  Speaker 16: Victor Auban is perhaps European Union some least best ally,
• 26:56
  Speaker 16: shall I say? He's very pro President Putin and Rush.
• 27:00
  Speaker 16: He wants to stop giving aid to Ukraine and has
• 27:03
  Speaker 16: blocked so many times the European Union giving aid to
• 27:07
  Speaker 16: Ukraine in terms of money and also weapons and so forth.
• 27:12
  Speaker 16: And he's also very close friend of Donald Trump. Indeed,
• 27:15
  Speaker 16: on the campaigning a few days before the election, JD.
• 27:18
  Speaker 16: Vans flew in the Deputy president in order to actually say, look,
• 27:24
  Speaker 16: you know, things could be good between America and Hungary
• 27:27
  Speaker 16: if you vote for Victor aubam. Despite all of that,
• 27:30
  Speaker 16: many people have been out on the streets saying we
• 27:32
  Speaker 16: choose Europe, not Russia, not America. And that looks good
• 27:37
  Speaker 16: for that opposition candidate who appears to be doing so well.
• 27:40
  Speaker 16: Peta Maga.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: Appreciate your analysis. Has always Gevin Gray are UK europe correspondent.
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: It is twelve away from.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: Six Ryan Bridge.
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: So Trump says, the US Navy's going to blockade ships
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: trying to enter or leave the Strait of Hormuz.
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: We're putting on a complete blockhead. We're not going to
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: let around make money on selling oil to people that
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: they're I cannot people that they don't like, or whatever
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: it is. It's going to be all or none.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Right, Let's go to glen Cow.
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: This, of course comes after no deal in Islamabad over
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: the peace talks. Let's go to glen Cow, forma CIA
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: intelligence office that glean good morning, good morning, good to
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: be with you, Thanks for being with me. Let's start
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: with the blockade situation. To start with, what do you think?
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: What do you make of that?
• 28:25
  Speaker 9: Well, Trump is flailing to be blunt about it. The
• 28:30
  Speaker 9: US Navy, I'm confident, can effectively stop the Iranians from
• 28:36
  Speaker 9: getting any ships out of the Straits of Hormuz. That's
• 28:41
  Speaker 9: I think quite possible, which will be a problem in
• 28:43
  Speaker 9: particular for China and India. But that doesn't open the straits.
• 28:48
  Speaker 9: And that's the fundamental problem, is that the straits are closed,
• 28:51
  Speaker 9: and so the world is rather quickly starting to strangle
• 28:55
  Speaker 9: on a lack of oil.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, which was always going to be the problem from
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: the get go, wasn't it. It's not when would Trump
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: declared that the wall's over? Who was going to do
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: that at some point? But it's how long after that
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: does it take for the strike to bloody well open?
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: And the answer is, actually, it's going to be a while.
• 29:14
  Speaker 9: Well, even if if Iran had the best will in
• 29:16
  Speaker 9: the world about opening the strait, it will take some time.
• 29:20
  Speaker 9: I don't know how long. But as we hear that,
• 29:23
  Speaker 9: even the US Navy and the Iranians themselves are saying
• 29:26
  Speaker 9: they don't know where the mines have gone because they've
• 29:28
  Speaker 9: float around and it's a laborious, dangerous process to d
• 29:34
  Speaker 9: mine and areas. So even in the best of circumstances,
• 29:37
  Speaker 9: there will be some period I don't know, a weeks,
• 29:40
  Speaker 9: it would seem. But we aren't that quote good unquote position,
• 29:45
  Speaker 9: which its helf is not very good at all, because
• 29:48
  Speaker 9: the straits have to be clear, and Iran has to
• 29:53
  Speaker 9: agree to an effective cease fire, and there's no agreement
• 29:57
  Speaker 9: between the United States and Iran.
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: The talks with Jdi Vance in Pakistan obviously went no,
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: Well didn't go no where. They did talk for twenty
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: one hours, but there was no agreement reached at the
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: end of it. We're told there'll likely be other rounds.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: But the big thing is the nuclear weapons and the
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: nuclear stockpile of enriched uranium. So how do they not
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: know where it is? Can they not go and get it?
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: Or you know, how do we resolve this issue of
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: the enriched uranium, because that's the justification of going in
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: the first place.
• 30:28
  Speaker 9: Well, I believe we don't know. I think the assessment
• 30:31
  Speaker 9: has been pretty accurate that no one knows exactly except
• 30:36
  Speaker 9: perhaps even maybe not the Uranians themselves. But except for
• 30:40
  Speaker 9: the Uranians, where all of the processed uranium is. I
• 30:44
  Speaker 9: think we know where most of it is. But even
• 30:46
  Speaker 9: though we know where it is, it's now buried under
• 30:48
  Speaker 9: anything from one hundred to four hundred meters of rubble
• 30:54
  Speaker 9: and earth. And so to get it in a hostile
• 30:57
  Speaker 9: environment would imply frankly invaded and occupying that area for
• 31:01
  Speaker 9: a sustained period of time to dig trenches their holes
• 31:05
  Speaker 9: rather mines down into the mind to get the uranium,
• 31:10
  Speaker 9: or even with Iranian assistance or a willingness, the same
• 31:15
  Speaker 9: process has to happen, and then you never know, and
• 31:19
  Speaker 9: it seems we don't know where some of the Iranian
• 31:24
  Speaker 9: uranium might be, so under the best of circumstances, that's
• 31:28
  Speaker 9: a substantial physical challenge. And then there are the political
• 31:33
  Speaker 9: military aspects. So there's no quick solution to that so
• 31:38
  Speaker 9: long as the Iranians don't say yes, yes, we agree
• 31:41
  Speaker 9: in all points with the United States and they don't.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: Glenn, appreciate your analysis, Glenn cow Pharmacy I Intelligence officer.
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: It's eight to six news talks a big.

• 32:05
  Speaker 3: of travel offshore to try and get some oil Malaysia
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: and Brunei and his sites this week. He was in
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: Singapore last week and is doing an oil for gas
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: kind of situation conversation. So Malaysia supplies thirteen percent of
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: diesel in Australia and Brunei about nine percent of diesel,
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: and Albanize has a bunch of gas and it's interesting
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: unlike labor here. Albanizi has declared his confidence that gas
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: fields will be brought online faster because the government has
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: overhauled environmental laws.
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: So there you go. Give them gas, they'll.
• 32:39

• 32:53
  Speaker 7: if you watched it, well, seventeen a lot of people,
• 32:56
  Speaker 7: a lot of people got sort of angsty about it
• 32:59
  Speaker 7: and thinking, oh, are pretty good and we've lost a
• 33:01
  Speaker 7: couple of games, and we didn't lose particularly well anyway.
• 33:04
  Speaker 7: But if you look at the completeness of what.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: We did, comprehensive, comprehensive.
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: But didn't Melbourne have a bad game the week?
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they got they got hiding, didn't they They got been by.
• 33:14
  Speaker 7: The Panthers and badly. So yeah, I suppose if your
• 33:17
  Speaker 7: glass half amp year could have gone, well, they're not
• 33:19
  Speaker 7: the side they once were, but it win's a win.
• 33:21
  Speaker 7: And at the at the end of the day, you
• 33:23
  Speaker 7: got four winds of six so far, so we're second
• 33:25
  Speaker 7: on the table. Four winds of six and those four
• 33:27
  Speaker 7: winds each and every one of them is brilliant. Was
• 33:30
  Speaker 7: not just a win, it's a spanking. We spank them
• 33:33

  Speaker 7: Your big mistake. There was the words talking to the
• 33:52
  Speaker 7: boys from Sport, stay well clear of that department and
• 33:57
  Speaker 7: deal with the experts.
