  Speaker 3: We're about to spend twenty million dollars to teach our teachers'

  Speaker 3: basic maths. We have a principle on why they're pushing
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: back against this. That's just before six this morning. Also,
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: the US is moving fighter jets and navy destroyers. This
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: is in response to threats from Iran to retaliate after
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: Israel when in shot one of the Hezbuller guys. A

  Speaker 3: lot going on also they got to a Hamas leader

  Speaker 3: know during the show. Right now, it is seven after
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: five the agenda, Monday, the fifth of August. Tensions are
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: continuing to rise in the Middle East. Kiwis have been
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: warned to get out of Lebanon and Iran before it
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: gets too hard to leave. Iran has vowed to retaliate
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: following an attack last week which killed a senior HUMMAS leader.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: Former US Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Israeli Palestinian
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: Affairs Andrew Miller says it's likely there will be a
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: revenge attack.
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: Iran arguably has a greater incentive to respond strongly this
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: time because of the degree to which they were embarrassed frankly.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: And rockets have already been fired. We'll have more on
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: that soon. Meanwhile, more than seventy people have died in
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: anti government clashes between protesters and police in Bangladesh. The
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: protests started last month when students demanded the removal of
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: quotas and civil service jobs, but they are now demanding
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: the Prime minister steps down as well. It's been reported
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: that ten thousand people have been detained by police in
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: the last two weeks. By the way they want the
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: reinstatement of these quotas versed, it basically reserves thirty percent
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: of government jobs for kids of war veterans, and critics
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: say that that actually is just supporters of the ruling party,
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: so it's a have that's why they're so upset. New
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Zealand's debt has risen nearly five percent from last year
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: to eight hundred and twenty seven billion dollars at the
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: end of May. Crown debts risen by eleven percent, while
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: private debt is growing at a lower pace. Herald Business
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: editor Liam Dan says the COVID aftermath is mostly responsible,
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: as it is for so many things, for blowing out
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: our crown debt and account deficit, adding that their global
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: rating agencies should be reasonably comfortable with where we're at.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: Given the context, they would.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: Have a bit of caution about the government debt and
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: they want to see the current account deficit coming down.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines, Ryan Bridge you for twenty
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: twenty four on early edition with Smith City, New Zealand's
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Furniture Beds and a Planet Store News talk sai'd be.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: Nine minutes out to five. We've been following the situation
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: in the Middle East, well, we definitely last week we're
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: talking about this, the potential for a more direct conflict
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: between Iran and the United States. It is a real
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: worry and I think Winston Peters, I think there must
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: be some intelligence that we're not quite aware of at
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: the moment, because just in the last twenty four hours,
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: a number of crucial things have happened. There's now a
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: fresh warning from Winston Peters and a tweet saying get
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: out now. And you'd have to say, there aren't many
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: kiwis probably in Iran right now. Apparently there are eighteen
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: in Lebanon, get out now. And they're saying to those
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: in Israel, think about whether it's necessary that you stay there.
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: This is the latest from our government. Also the US,
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: the UK, Sweden, France, Italy, Canada, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Jordan,
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: they are all saying leave and that's fresh. So you know,
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: last week we told you about the warnings from them.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Now there are fresh warnings, so obviously something is afoot.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: The US is moving its military assets, fighter jets and
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: navy destroyers with missiles. This is Sabrina sing from the Pentagon.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: Additional measures to include ongoing and future defensive force pasture
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: changes that the Department will take to support the defense
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: of Israel.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: The question is what's next. In the north of Israel.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: There are parts of northern Israel that are like ghost towns.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: Apparently no one there because of the fighting and the
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: threat from his Bulla across the border. And you know,
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: the analyst are saying, well, what do you do about that?
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: You need to push his buller back further away from
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: the border so Israel can reclaim those bits of land.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: And if the world doesn't help them do it, they'll
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: just deal themselves. And then where does that lead? So
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: that's what we're looking at this morning. But also education
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: is the big one this morning. Why do we need
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: to spend twenty million dollars teaching teachers basic maths?
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: News and Views you trust to start your day. It's
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's furniture,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: It's and a playing store. News Talk said, be.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: Thirteen after five. News Talks said, be welcome to your
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: Monday morning. Karmala Harris hasn't had a press conference in
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: fourteen days. We'll ask why what she's scared of. Also
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: this morning, just before six, a principal on the government's
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: changes to primary education what it means for your kids.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: And we're staying on education right now because the number
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: of kids needing food and clothing from Kids Can has
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: reached a record. More than ten thousand students from two
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: hundred and sixty schools across the country are on the
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: charity's wait list. It is the longest since they're founding
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: in two thousand and five. Kids Can Chief executive Julie
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Chapman is with me this morning. Julie, good morning.
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: Good morning, Ryan.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: Good to have you on the show. You're seeing quite
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: a stark change. I mean, those are the numbers, but
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: you're seeing a change in the poverty line. It's shifting, yeah,
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: And what.
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: We're finding is that more and more of the schools
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: that are applying to us are you know, in middle
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: income areas, so that that cost of living and everything
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: that's sort of going on right now is starting to
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: bite in those areas, and families that were just getting
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: by are now the ones that are actually needing help
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: for their children.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: What are they needing help with?
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: Gosh, it's just a real basics. So it's food. You know,
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: a lot of schools are reporting to us that you know,
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: children are going home to nothing to eat. So sometimes
• 6:34
  Speaker 6: you know, at school is the only time they're getting something.
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: You know, they're delaying replacing uniforms, pairs of shoes, you know,
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: shoes are being held together with duct tape. You know,
• 6:47
  Speaker 6: it's it's taking longer for people to be able to
• 6:52
  Speaker 6: afford those things that their kids really need to be
• 6:55
  Speaker 6: able to get on with learning.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: How long is your you know, in terms of not
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: numbers weight list, but how long are people on the
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: wait list?
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: How long do people have to wait to get those things?
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so at this time last year, we had over
• 7:11
  Speaker 6: one hundred schools waiting and now there's one hundred and
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: fifty more of those schools and early childhood centers.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: And I guess the real challenge for us is being
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: able to get the funding to be able to take
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: them off the weight list, because when we do that,
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: we also want to make sure that you know, we're
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: not taking them off for a short time. We're able
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: to support them for as long as then as they
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: need it.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: I know you guys have partners that you work with
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: and stuff like that, but you'll obviously be doing an appeal.
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: Can you let people know about that, Julie.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: Look, when it is the toughest time for kids, especially
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: the ones that we support, so we've launched an urgent
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: appeal asking people to sign up to support a child's
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: for fifty dollars a month or just donate what they can.
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: And our goal with this is to get as many
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: kids on that waiting list off as possible so they
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: can have what they need to get to school and learn.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: How do people help? What's the website, Julie.
• 8:13
  Speaker 6: They can go to KidsCan dot org dot nz and
• 8:16
  Speaker 6: have a lot there at all the ways that they
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: can help and lock Also, if you're not able to donate,
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: just spread the words. You know, it's really important that
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: we support the education of all children in New Zealand
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: and they really, you know, the kids that are waiting
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: really need that support right now.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: Keep up the good work, Julie, Thank you for your time.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: Julie Chapman, the CEO, Chief executive at kids Can they
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: do brilliant work and help out if you can. There
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: will also be a correlation, I'm sure between the terrible
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: maths stats that we're about to tell you just before six,
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: the number of our primary school aged kids who just
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: don't know how to do maths. I'm sure there'll be
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: a correlation between that and what Julie has been talking
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: about too. Back in a.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Second Ryan Bridge New for twenty twenty four on early

• 9:47
  Speaker 8: players who have achieved what they call the Golden Slam,
• 9:50
  Speaker 8: which is to won all four majors and an Olympic
• 9:52
  Speaker 8: title in the singles, so Djokovic joins stephie Graff, Andrea

  Speaker 8: agascy Rafael o'dale and Serena w So it's pretty alites company.
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: Pretty And it was a special moment too, wasn't. I

• 10:10
  Speaker 8: Yeah, that's right. And another cracking dual with Carlos Alcareth.

• 10:20
  Speaker 8: he went seven six, seven six. Neither neither of them
• 10:23

• 10:53
  Speaker 8: taking it away from Tommy Fleetwood, Hedecki match Yama in
• 10:56
  Speaker 8: the bronze midle position. But I think to the key
• 10:58
  Speaker 8: that John Raham led by four strokes with nine holes
• 11:02
  Speaker 8: to play, but four bogus in a double in the
• 11:05

• 12:54
  Speaker 3: Actually this one will rile up teachers. Hi, Ryan, the unions,
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: I see you're already worried about the teacher work. With
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: what the government's proposing. I thought that they could do
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: that extra professional development work during their twelve weeks holiday.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: You're asking for it, John. I think that was from
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: Hi Ran enjoying the show. My girls have just finished
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: school and the standard of teaching was not great. Some
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: were great, but the school itself was dreadful, says one another.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: He has a story about eight year old grandaughter. We
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: might get to these a little later on. We are
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: speaking to a principal just before.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Six, separating the fact from the fiction. Kid's Billy edition
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: with Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds and Appliant Store

  Speaker 1: News Talk ZBI.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: What are councils, local councils, regional councils. It's a simple well,
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: it should be a simple question. What is their purpose?
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: I've always believed take away my rubbish, put the street
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: lights on. You know when I go to the toilet.
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: You can take that away too, That's part of your job. Roads, rubbish, sewerage,
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: swimming pools. Maybe a library, although I think we've got
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: the internet now, so why do we need libraries. But
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: that's a debate for another day. A big scrap in.
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: I was reading this over the weekend over Gaza. Yeah,
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: Notices of motion petitions, meetings interrupted, staff involved, and I
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: asked myself, what has rotrou Lake's council got to do
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: with Gaza. They're calling for a ceasefire and they're one
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: of dozens of councils across the country who are doing this.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: Listen to the mayor, Tania Tapsle's interaction with Counselor Maxwell,
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: who was trying to get this over the line.
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: Could I have the answer from No, that is not
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: counselor Maxwell.
• 14:49
  Speaker 9: Counselor Maxwell, I thought counselors Counselor Maxwell, I rule that
• 14:57
  Speaker 9: that is not an urgent item.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: This clips of parent gone viral, probably the first time
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: anything from a council has gone viral. And don't get
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: me wrong, please, deaths and the extent of the retaliation
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: by Israel completely out of whack, heartbreaking, unimaginable, suffering. Please,
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: I am not casting judgment here on the issue at hand.
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: I'm simply asking, is Netanyahu is Biden listening to the
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: thoughts of Baltado A Lakes Council and if not, should
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: they be talking about things like this? You know, if
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: councils were on top of their core business, this wouldn't
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: matter to me. But you've got budget blowouts. This is
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: just it, or to do it, by the way, budget
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: blowouts on a sewage scheme. You've got in Buller thirty
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: one percent rate increases. In Hamilton, you've got nineteen percent
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: rate increases. You've got an average of fifteen percent rate
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: increases across the country. You've got infrastructure problems, you've got
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: sewage running into the ocean and Toto and they've just
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: held an election the first time they could vote, I
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: think in five years and they were in the thirties
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: and turnout and you wonder why. I mean, people obviously
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: don't have a lot of faith in their councils and
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: what are they doing? And it's not just garsa. There
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: are other issues that councils often jump on, like things
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: to do with the UN. And I mean, is that
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: your purview. We've got a representative, We've got a permanent
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: representative on the Security Council, the UN Security Council, a
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: permanent representative who can make statements on our behalf, on
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: behalf of the government. Isn't that where you do it?
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: Are they focusing on local issues? Shouldn't they only focus
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: on local issues? After all? Aren't they local.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Councils, Ryan Bridge, twenty.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: Nine minutes after five, coming up just before six. It's
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: a principle on the government's education changes. They announced those
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: at the weekend. Also, we're going to Kay Oliver, who's
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: our UK and Europe correspondent, because the fights and the
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: riots that have been kicking off in Southport, apparently it's
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: not just the far right that's getting involved. It's guys
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: who are sitting at the pub on a Sunday outternoon,
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: getting drunk and then seeing the right and just joining in.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: We'll talk about that in just a few moments too.
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: You're on zb.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: The news you need this morning and the in depth
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: analysis early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: Zealand's Furniture Beds had a playing store news Talk zid B.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: Good morning, it is twenty four minutes away from six o'clock.
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: This is You probably don't often hear the North Korean
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: national anthem. The reason we're playing the North Korean national
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: anthem is that they're making a bit of a splash
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: at the gymnastics arena at the Olympics. Of course, they
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: didn't send this is North Korea didn't send anyone to
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: Tokyo because COVID and they locked themselves down. But they
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: reckon that they're on a charm offensive. These North Korean
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: athletes at the gymnastics arena, they're doing some diplomatic acrobatics
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: on the sidelines as they compete, not just performing on
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: the vault. So Simone Biles is going for a third
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: gold medal there right, And one of those applauding the
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: loudest and smiling and standing and clapping and cheering was
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: none other than Anne Chung Uk, who is her rival
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: from North Korea. They were grinning and waving for the
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: TV cameras they hugged a fellow finalist. This is unusual
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: behavior for North Korean athletes. Two of them get this,
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: even posed for selfies with the South Koreans. Very unusual.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: So people are saying, is this a planned, staged offensive
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: or is this just a twenty one year old athlete
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: who is very excited to be in Paris. I don't know.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: You can be the judge. Twenty three minutes away from
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: six Friday and bread Brech, we're going to Callum Proctor
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: and Dunedin. Our Coastguard has a fresh warning after this
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: triple fatality in Southland callum.
• 19:32
  Speaker 9: In morning, Ryan, this is a Riveton on Saturday. The
• 19:35
  Speaker 9: towns in shock after this tragedy. Emergency services called to
• 19:38
  Speaker 9: the Riverton Bar after a boat capsized Saturday afternoon while
• 19:42
  Speaker 9: attempting to return from a fishing trip.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: Two were pulled from the water alive, but three died.
• 19:48
  Speaker 9: Coastcard Rivetons on guard scene or on scene controller as
• 19:52
  Speaker 9: Noel Anderson.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: He's told us that look, there was white water across
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: the bar on Saturday.
• 19:57
  Speaker 9: Mister Anderson says, normally the Riveton bars fairly tamed, but
• 20:00
  Speaker 9: Saturday's conditions were tricky but not too dangerous. Weather today
• 20:05
  Speaker 9: come a light rain this morning, then fine westerlies and
• 20:09
  Speaker 9: thirteen today.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: Thank you. Clichurewood is in christ Church for us this morning.
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: Clear The coronial inquest into the Mosk attacks is resuming today.
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: That's right, Ryan, Deputy Chief at corner Bridget Windley is
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: hearing from experts about whether an al Noor mosque emergency
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: door had failed to function while the worshippers were fleeing
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: the terrorist The issue potentially affected eleven of the fifty
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: one attack victims, as worshippers were eventually forced to break
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: the door glass in order to get out. In May,
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: the court heard that the door's manual lock could be
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: very tricky to use. Some witnesses also said the door's
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: electronic lock was not yet connected. Hearings on this second
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: lot of evidence on the issue are expected to take just.
• 20:50
  Speaker 10: Over a week.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: Run your weather today, Claire, Well, it's.
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: Very frosty here this morning. Some high cloud about the
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: frost returns tonight, light winds a high of thirteen with
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: minus two.
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: Oh all right, enjoy that, Maxis and Wellington Heymax. You've
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: got calls for bitter safety on and around the harbor.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 21:08
  Speaker 11: This has been a talking point in the city for
• 21:10
  Speaker 11: some years, as periodically someone might fall into the water
• 21:14
  Speaker 11: around the city. They might get blown in by a
• 21:16
  Speaker 11: particularly strong gust. Perhaps they've been out and about having
• 21:19
  Speaker 11: a few drinks at town, often at night. A coroner's
• 21:22
  Speaker 11: inquest starts today in relation to the death of thirty
• 21:25
  Speaker 11: year old Sandy Calcin in July twenty twenty one, to
• 21:29
  Speaker 11: figure out what happened there. Teacher Isaac Levings was found
• 21:32
  Speaker 11: dead in the harbor last year. The Council's keeping up
• 21:35
  Speaker 11: temporary fencing as it tries to figure out a permanent
• 21:38
  Speaker 11: answer previous reports highlighting the area around Tippapa as being
• 21:43
  Speaker 11: of a particular risk.
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah. When I was at university there there were a
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: couple who went missing and then they were found in
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: the harbor. You can't cordon off the whole harbor though,
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: can you. I mean, yeah, no exactly.
• 21:55
  Speaker 11: And another issue, who is obviously people have climbed up
• 21:58
  Speaker 11: the boat that's board in the harbor and jump off
• 22:02
  Speaker 11: that and that can lead to fatalities as well.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: How's your weather today, Max? It was freezing when I
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: was visiting there on the weekend.
• 22:08
  Speaker 11: Oh, horrific. A lot better today morning cloud than fine
• 22:11
  Speaker 11: Northerlys A high of twelve. I think the current temperature
• 22:13
  Speaker 11: is seven in the city.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: Brilliant, Thank you. It is seven point two in Auckland.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: Need us here, Hi, Neiva, good morning, good weekend for you.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, I.
• 22:20
  Speaker 10: Was in Gisbine. I've just heard you. So you're in Wellington.
• 22:22
  Speaker 10: We were out of Auckland.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: Yes, we were in you know, more important places. How
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: was it freezing there?
• 22:28
  Speaker 10: Gisbine was gorgeous. I mean it was freezing cool and
• 22:32
  Speaker 10: chrisp But that was my first time there in Gisbon,
• 22:34
  Speaker 10: so it was just the weekend I was doing touristy
• 22:36
  Speaker 10: things with the friend. We had a bore.
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: It's a beautiful place, it is.
• 22:40
  Speaker 10: What about Wellington?
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: Lovely? Actually went to My sister in law is running
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: a play at the Wided Upper College, which was brilliant.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: I went, We went and watched, went down and watched
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: that lovely school of rock.
• 22:56
  Speaker 10: You didn't want to get on the stage yourself?
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: I did. It made me want. We want to get
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: up there and get the guitar out at nineteen minutes
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: away from six. What are we talking about?
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: Neither?
• 23:05
  Speaker 10: We are talking about rats, your favorite subject. So what's
• 23:09
  Speaker 10: happening is that this restaurant aiming to bring affordable Malaysian
• 23:12
  Speaker 10: meals to Auckland's North shore devastated rats have come to
• 23:15
  Speaker 10: spoil the party. So Lankawi Malaysian restaurant on the shore
• 23:19
  Speaker 10: being slept with a D grade by Auckland Council. Now
• 23:23
  Speaker 10: this follows a complaint by a customer came face to
• 23:25
  Speaker 10: face with the rat in the toilet. So Auckland Council
• 23:30
  Speaker 10: got their food safety people there visited the restaurant last
• 23:33
  Speaker 10: week and then they identified evidence of rodent droppings cleaning
• 23:37
  Speaker 10: maintenance issues, hence the d rating. Now, this customer posted
• 23:42
  Speaker 10: on Facebook and Google, so that's how this all came about, saying,
• 23:45
  Speaker 10: you know, that's what it's happening these days, isn't it?
• 23:48
  Speaker 10: Posting this and saying, look, it was the most traumatic
• 23:50
  Speaker 10: experience in her life. But I was just saying, there's
• 23:53
  Speaker 10: a person out here in the newsroom who she is
• 23:57
  Speaker 10: a rat catcher, like she's caught rats in her house.
• 24:00
  Speaker 10: She's she's amazing, she's no fear. I have a fear
• 24:03
  Speaker 10: of rats.
• 24:04
  Speaker 12: I couldn't do it.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: What does she do with him?
• 24:05
  Speaker 10: Well, she well she just kills them.
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: She's not catching them for I tell you what.
• 24:11
  Speaker 10: She has her little weed traps and she said it
• 24:14
  Speaker 10: depends on the cheese, you know, and she puts Pasan
• 24:17
  Speaker 10: cheese and she gets them and kills them.
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: So I thought, there you go, Well send them Malaysian
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: restaurants and parmesan cheese. Why don't we outsource her, I know,
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: we don't want to probably don't want to name her.
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: We should have her sauce here to go and sort
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: it out. Neither weather today.
• 24:31
  Speaker 10: Mainly find cloud increasing Auckland High fourteen.
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: Brilliant, Thank you seventeen away from six. It has just
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: gone quarter to six. You're on news talk, said b
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: Karmala Harris is going to apparently Wednesday our time, announce
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: who her pick for vice presidential nominee is, and that
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: the announcement is going to be made in Pennsylvania. And
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: people are saying, oh, well, a little be Shapiro, then who's
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: the government in Pennsylvania? And she says, don't read into it,
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: don't read into the location. But anyway, Wednesday our time
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: will be the day, and I expect that she will
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: do a press conference, will at least taste some take
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: some questions from the media because she is copying flak
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: full going fourteen days without holding a formal press conference
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: with the press since becoming the presumptive nominee, and you
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: know they're piling on to her. Now, when is Kamala
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: Harris going to hold a press conference? The RNC says
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: she only does teleprompt to speeches. So that you go
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: Wednesday our time, I bet you'll get a VP nominee
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: and you'll get a press conference.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: It is fourteen to six International correspondence with ends and
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: eye insurance, Peace of mind for New Zealand business.
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: Kay Oliver is with us our UK and europe correspondents,
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: k thank you for being with us. Violent outbreaks. This
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: is continuing in Southport, but also now Belfast and other
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: places around the UK.
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, Ryan, We've got a Britain in the middle of
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: a summer of chaos. Here, we've got a new labor
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: government and for care. Stalovany Primar has just said this
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: is violence, not protests. We have seen riots on the
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: streets here. We've got people in Rotheram, Middlesbrough, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Bristol.
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: The latest breaking news is that lots of the media
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: have been urged on these streets to put their cameras away.
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: It is a dangerous place. We've had protesters attempting to
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: get into the holiday in Express in Rotherham where assylum
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: seekers are being housed. That's just been confirmed by the
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: Home Secretary of at Coober. They've gone through and they
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: are trying literally to break up this hotel. The asylum
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: seekers are hiding in their bedrooms. They're a chance of
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: stop the boats. We want our country back. We've got
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: Hamza Yusuf, he's a former First Minister of Scotland saying
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: this situation is so out of control now that the
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: army should be brought in. We've got politicians from all
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: sides saying this is actual violence. They're condemn it, condemning
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: it and saying that it has to be brought under control.
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: We've got a second man has been charged with a
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: city center violent disorder in Liverpool. He's been remarded in custody,
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: but there are around about one hundred people now who've
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: been arrested. They obviously are going to have to go
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: through the legals and the legal and prison system which
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: is quite overstretched here anyway.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: And move.
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: They're going to have to be made to clear clear
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: the decks so that these people can be processed. But
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: basically it's a situation where Malaysia has become the first
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: country to actually advise its citizens over travel to the UK.
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: I mean, all this violent protests, so it really is
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: building up to be something unimaginable. We haven't seen riots
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: here since twenty eleven nine and this really is actually
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: the lid has come off here.
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: I'm just looking at a live FAEDE from Rotherham where
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: the police are being vetted by projectiles. They're trying to
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: hold the line in front of the hotel where these
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: poor asylum seekers are being housed. I mean this is unreal.
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: Well, absolutely, the police have become the targets. They're in
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: the middle of this. You've got on one side, you've
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: got the far right. On the other side, you've got
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: the anti racist protesters. The police are in the middle
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: and they're getting it from all sides. A number of
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: police officers have been taken to hospital. We've seen a
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: female police officer officer who literally had a table hold
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: into her face. So they really are taking a battering
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: here and it's getting worse. The situation is not dying.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: Down, No, certainly not. Kay. Thank you very much for
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: your report. K all Over our UK and Europe correspondent.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: The violent outbreaks in Southport now spreading across the UK, Belfast,
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: you name it. Honestly, these images that we're seeing is shocking.
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: It has just gone now ten away from six Ryan Bridge,
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: A new math curriculum is on the way for our
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: primary and intermediate school students and new structured maths will
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: be based on curriculums from Singapore and Australia, altered for
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Kiwi students and it comes into the classroom from term
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: one next year. So it is soon. Twenty million dollars
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: will be spent on teacher training ahead of the introduction
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: and the Teaching Council will raise the maths entry requirement
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: for new teachers so they will have to be at
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: least competent in NCAA Level two. The Langholm School Principal,
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: Martin weather Well, it's a primary school in Auckland, is
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: with us this morning. Martin, thank you for being on
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: the show. Good morning, Good to have you on. What
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: do you make of this announcement.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: It's an announcement that was not unexpected. We are obviously
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: concerned about the workload that it's going to create the teachers.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, the proposals are going to add incredibly to
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: teachers and principals workload with the short turnaround of five months,
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: the requirement that we continue to meet all the government
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: other expectations and requirements, and of course this is the
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: second curriculum that has been announced. We are currently undergoing
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: to training for the literacy program announced earlier in the year.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: It's a lot of work, but when twenty two percent
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: of year eights on are at benchmark level four maths,
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: we've got to do something, don't.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: We oh, don't disagree with that. No teacher, no parent
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: is going to disagree with that. But let's address the
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: fundamental issue. Thirty years of chronic and systemic underfunding of
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: the primary education system cannot be solved by throwing twenty
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: million dollars and five months at the program. The issue
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: that we have right the way through this is that
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: political interference in the teaching practice has caused the problem.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: Now politicians are saying political interference in teaching practice will
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: solve the problem. I don't see how that's possible.
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: Do your teach no basic maths?
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: My teachers do my teachers actually teach one of the
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: Singapore Structured maths programs. The issue is not teacher competence.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: The issue is I physically do not have the money
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: to buy the resources that I need to teach maths.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: This is a resourcing is it's not an education This ye.
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: Right, But the government has said that those resources are coming.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: I am old enough to remember BSM maths, and we
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: will promise the resources were coming. Thirty five years later,
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: we've never seen them. I'm old enough to remember the
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: Numeracy Project and we will promised resources and we've never
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: seen them. With all due respect to the current minister.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: I'll believe that statement when I see it in fruition.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: If Erica Stanford produces these these resources at the start
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: of next year, will you eat your.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: Hat If those resources are available and they are adequate,
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: and those resources are available to meet the needs of
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: my diverse rate of needs. Now, remember my children are
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: not one size fit Saul. This approach is one size
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: fit Saul. Those resources must meet the needs of neurodiverse students.
