  Speaker 3: been elected and has spoken. This is Delastralia and citizens.
• 0:55
  Speaker 5: At this moment, I'm traveling to Bogata. I have ordered
• 0:58
  Speaker 5: to suspend all the meetings in gagements that I had
• 1:01
  Speaker 5: in the capital of the Republic to focus on the
• 1:03
  Speaker 5: natural disaster that today hits at our long suffering Colombian people.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: Over in the UK, we were talking about this. Andy
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: Burnham comes in and he takes over the policy of
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: the former leader in Starma. Let's let the prisoners out
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: of jail. Well, he's having conniptions about that now, isn't he.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: Nothing's changed.
• 1:21
  Speaker 6: I came into office and started pushing on this issue,
• 1:24
  Speaker 6: and I have pushed every single day in office since then,
• 1:28
  Speaker 6: and I've never accepted that there is nothing more that
• 1:31
  Speaker 6: can be done. We did first exclude those charged with rape,
• 1:37
  Speaker 6: serious sexual offenses against children, those convicted of offenses linked
• 1:41
  Speaker 6: to grooming. But I then said, but we also need
• 1:44
  Speaker 6: to go further.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: So perfectly unclear, and who knows what's going to happen
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: to the killers of those cops that kick us off
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: in the first place. Right Staying in the UK, people
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: are going nuts because a solar eclipse is going to happen.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: It's going to happen tomorrow morning our time. It'll be
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: Europe's first total solar eclipse in thirty years.
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: Today, all of a sudden, people seem to have really
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: caught on and our phone's been running practically after hook
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: asking us for information about the eclipse.
• 2:13
  Speaker 7: I heard about it on TikTok and it just seems
• 2:15
  Speaker 7: pretty cool.
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: I'm excited about it because it doesn't really happen that often.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: So I remember being very little, were dying of Green
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: Sands with my parents, and I just remember like looking
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: over the lake and it was just amazing.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: There they've been told just don't go look at it
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: with the sunglasses on. You actually need certified eclipse glasses.
• 2:31
  Speaker 8: The temptation on Wednesday evening will be are sure enough
• 2:33
  Speaker 8: ninety percent of it will be covered.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: I'll be grand.
• 2:36
  Speaker 8: No, you won't be grand.
• 2:37
  Speaker 9: You will have a permanent imprint off the eclipse on
• 2:40
  Speaker 9: the back of.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Your eye and for the rest of your life that
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: will be in your view.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: On your radio and online. On iheard radio early Edition
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: with Ryan Bridge and Spark for Business Technology that Keith's
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Business Moving news talks.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: It'd be all of it, grim, isn't it. Don't look
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: at the sun, don't look too closely at the sun.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: And if you are going to I can remember being
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: a kid and there at school we had I don't
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: know if it was a partial. I think it was
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: a partial eclipse, and we had to wear these big
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: welding goggles over our faces and so we could look
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: directly at it. So anyway, if you're heading that way,
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: then just don't look directly at it. Let's go to
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: what the National Party looking directly at today. And that's
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: just the basically leadership vote. That's all anyone cares about.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: So here's the Curier pole that was leaked to the
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: Post last week, Luxon with a net favorability score of
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: minus nineteen, hipkins On minus seven, so Hipkins looking better
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Peters minus sixteen, so Luxon less favorable than Peter's and
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: a net favorability of for Luxen of nationally voters of
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: fifty percent. Now, how do you get that bad? So
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: there are a couple of numbers they'll be looking at,
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: one of which is the pole from Friday, right, this
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: pole that came out on Friday. And even if you
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: look at the trend, the polar poles has the left
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: block three point two percent answer forming a government. So
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: why the hell do you go and turf out a
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: guy who is leading the party that will probably get
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: your party, your government re elected. Why would you do that? Well,
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: they point to a couple of other things, including that
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: net favorability rating, and they say that is key. This
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: is the ones who want change. That is a key
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: number because it tells you if we get rid of
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: the leader, then the drag on the party vote disappears.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: We will potentially take back some right block from acting
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: from New Zealand First and maybe even start to play
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: in the soft center as well. That's the argument that's
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: been made, and I guess you have to look at
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: it like this. If National was to elect a new leader,
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: would any New Zealand First voters run to Labor? No?
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Would any ACT voters run to Labor?
• 4:51
  Speaker 10: No?
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: Would any National voters run to Labor at this point,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: given where they are polling, I don't think they will.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: So the argument that being made by those people who
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: want change. And I've been speaking to a whole bunch
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: of National Party people over the last twenty four to forty,
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: well actually over the last two weeks, because people have
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: been pissed off. I'm just going to tell you, people
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: in the party have been really pissed off about the
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: way that the Prime ministers has been behaving and all
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: of those who come around and try and save them
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: from himself sometimes, which is not to say he's not
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: doing a good job in some areas, you know, getting
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: the right team in place, all of those things, but
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: they're passed off frankly. So yeah, the question then becomes,
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: if you do make a change, do you go backwards?
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Do you risk the treasury benches? Because anyone who takes
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: that job and dives knows dives national or risks the
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: election of a left wing government will be crucified and
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: go down in the history books as the most egregious
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: slap in the face too the party that you could imagine.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: So stakes are high today. Twelve after five, Bryan Bridge,
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: You're on News Talks c B. We'll talk about a
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: new study out of the University of otargets to do

• 6:33
  Speaker 3: fourteen minutes after five. Martin on who has responded to
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: the AB's hacker with one of his own and this
• 6:38

• 6:50
  Speaker 3: just one man in a hacker. It is fourteen after five,
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: Bryan Bridge. You study from the University of Otago. Vaping
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: around newborn's potential higher risk of cop death. Baby dies
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: in their sleep, unexplained. That's basically what COT death is.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: Maternal vaping was reported in half of the cases that
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: involved direct bid sharing. Dr Buzz Burrell General Practitioners Outed
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: achieved with me this morning, Doctor Buzz.
• 7:13
  Speaker 11: Good morning, Ryan, good morning, Good to talk to you again.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Good to have you on. So tell me what is
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: what is the link here between vaping and sudden from
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: THISTH syndrome.
• 7:24
  Speaker 11: Yeah, look, it's it's sending I think, well, we could
• 7:27
  Speaker 11: say very concerning signal. There isn't a direct cause. My
• 7:33
  Speaker 11: skim reading of the paper is that it's had a
• 7:36
  Speaker 11: look at just over one hundreds of sudden and deaths
• 7:38
  Speaker 11: and the a theme very strongly emerged. Bed sharing was
• 7:43
  Speaker 11: still a common theme which came out, but bed sharing
• 7:47
  Speaker 11: with smoking and or vaping. Eighty five percent of the
• 7:51
  Speaker 11: cot bess had those in common, so it's certainly emerging.
• 7:55
  Speaker 11: I think is the correct way to worry as a
• 7:58
  Speaker 11: risk factor for sudden infant death and gosh, what what
• 8:01
  Speaker 11: absolutely horrible and lifelong condition. I really appreciate your interest
• 8:05
  Speaker 11: in this. It's it's it's it's it's just so sad
• 8:09
  Speaker 11: and tragic, and anything we can do to reduce the risk,
• 8:12
  Speaker 11: we've just got to actively go for it. I think
• 8:14
  Speaker 11: what big message is and that this is emerging as well,
• 8:18
  Speaker 11: vaping is not harmless. And I think we have all
• 8:21
  Speaker 11: credits in the marketeers they seem to have tried to
• 8:25
  Speaker 11: get that message of craft that vaping is safe.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: What's the what's actually happening here? Is the vape somehow
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: like the vape juice or is it that the mother
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: is smothering? How do the babies die?
• 8:38
  Speaker 11: Yeah, good question. It's it's probably as certainly the same
• 8:42
  Speaker 11: mechanism that smoking during pregnancy is getting into the baby.
• 8:46
  Speaker 11: So it'll be a combination of the contents of the
• 8:51
  Speaker 11: cigarette and or the contents of the vape. And bearing
• 8:55
  Speaker 11: in mind that a vape that you've got a lot
• 8:57
  Speaker 11: of stuff in the bay, You've not only got the
• 8:59
  Speaker 11: inhaled lift which is doing strange things to the to
• 9:03
  Speaker 11: the lining of the blood vessels of the baby. The
• 9:05
  Speaker 11: present around the mother and that people concentral unit. But
• 9:09
  Speaker 11: there's other things that there's a there's bland making this
• 9:13
  Speaker 11: up now. But I think we've got glycol. We've we've
• 9:15
  Speaker 11: got a burnt products of glycol aldehydes, that's burnt bits
• 9:19
  Speaker 11: of metal. Every time somebody is inhaaling a product, they're
• 9:23
  Speaker 11: inhaving all of that and nicotine. And there's something about
• 9:26
  Speaker 11: heating nicotine and putting into the lungs is unique. If
• 9:29
  Speaker 11: you put it in the patch, if you swallow it
• 9:32
  Speaker 11: by means of a gum, it doesn't seem to have
• 9:34
  Speaker 11: the same lung effects as if you're inhaling it. So
• 9:38
  Speaker 11: it's there's something just unique about that.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: All right, good stuff, Doc b Well, not good stuff,
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: I should say, Doctor Buzbel and last Evy on the
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: program this morning time is seventeen minutes after five. I
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: add the IOD has completely changed their tune when it
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: comes to DIBt and when it comes to liquidations, and
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: they've gone from softly softly to we're coming after you

• 10:19
  Speaker 3: Some numbers five twenty for you on this Wednesday morning.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: The SMP Global Ratings Agency, you know, the one we
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: care about when it comes to our debt. While they
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: also do a bunch of numbers on growth, and they
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: reckon that our economy is going to grow about half
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: a percent faster than they thought it was last time
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: they checked in twenty six and twenty seven. They're picking
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: their forecasts two point four percent growth for twenty six,
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: two and a half percent for twenty twenty seven, not
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: to be scoffed at. And high frequency indicators are the
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: leading reason, including business investment. Business investment, you could argue
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: would come down in part to business or investment boost
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: the government policy. It's twenty after five r and Bridge.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Half a million keiwis now in debt to the IRD
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: total keiw we debt now nine point four billion, that's
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: up from six billion and twenty twenty three. Now sixty
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: five percent of that outstanding debt is for SMEETH, which
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: is a worry. Robin Walker Deloitte tax partner with me
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: this morning, Robin, good morning, good morning. Is this a
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: COVID hangover the size of it?
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's definitely the case. You can see
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: the numbers. There's reporting from about twenty twenty and from
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: about twenty twenty three the debt numbers really start ballooning.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: And during those years inland revenue were directed to focus
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: on COVID put out those small business cash flow loans
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: through the COVID support payments, the resurgence payments and so on.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: That's what they were focusing on, rather than collecting debt
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: as soon as it was outstanding.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: And when you're not collecting the debt, it tends to grow.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: IID you could argue a bit softly softly and now
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: going a bit more hardball, what are you seeing.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely there's focus on it and that's come direct
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: from the government. They're saying, you've got to go out
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: and collect this money. You want to collect your debt
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: is while it's fresh. Right. So when we look at
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: the statistics, ninety five percent of people pay all of
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: their tax on time and within six months ninety seven
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: point six percent of the tax is collected. So it is.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: It is a small fraction, but it's significant when it's
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: left uncollected over a significant period of time. So of
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: the nine point four billion dollars that you mentioned, six
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: point two million is the actual tax and the rest
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: of it is interest in penalties. So you've got over
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: three billion dollars of interest in penalties which are just
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: adding to that and making it harder to repay that debt.
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: When sixty sixty two percent of the debt that's outstanding
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: is collectible, what do they mean by that? Does that
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: just mean that that's the bit that they can likely
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: get back, minus though the interest and penalties you're talking.
• 12:57
  Speaker 11: About, yees.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: So looking at how old is the debt and what
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: is the type of debt? Is it debt that is
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: subject to a dispute, Is it a company that's going
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: through a liquidation process or something is stopping them being
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: able to collect the debt immediately? They don't write off
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: the debt until obviously there's absolutely no chance, So that's
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: kind of like a bit of an accounting thing to
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: just say, well, what do we think we all will
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: actually be collecting?
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: All right, Robin, good to have you on the show.
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: This morning. Is always have a great day, Robin Walker,
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: Deloitte tax partner. It is twenty three minutes after five,
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: Ryan Bread, Ryan Iod came after me from a house
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: that I sold before COVID with the brightline test one
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: hundred and sixty thousand dollars. Wtf aj Well, I mean
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: the bright line is the bright line? So the bright
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: line was two years? Or was ten years? Then five
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: and then two? Is it two at the moment, I'm
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: pretty sure it is. And depending on when you bought
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: the property. This is for a second home. When you
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: bought the property will determine what number which of those
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: tests supply. It can get a bit confusing. Craikey, Ryan,
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: I want a job at Otaga University. They study a
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: lot of things that we all know the answer to
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: and talk in riddles and they get paid for it.
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: Says Donald in Lomitu. Good morning, Donald. I'll try and
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: hook you up with a job there. Am twenty four
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: minutes after five. Next we'll talk about National because it's
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: really the only game in town apart from the all
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: blacks only game in town. Today we will talk about that.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Next nine two nine two is the number to text.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: Let me know who you think will emerge today the
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: leader of the National Party N nine two News Talks
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: EDB News Talk SB twenty six minutes after five. Here's
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: how this morning is going to play out. At nine
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: point thirty am, any member of National's caucus can call
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: a no confidence vote in Luckxlin's leadership parties. Constitution calls
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: these guys the Parliamentary Section. They vote its majority rules
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: if if there's a vacancy. If there is a vacancy
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: ie Lucksin's Gomburger, then they elect a new leader or leaders.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: History tells us most leaders would do the honorable thing
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: before this and stand aside, clear the decks, let things
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: get ready. Bolts did it when Shipley got the knives out.
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: Luxon would be no different. It's possible this could happen
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: before nine point thirty am. We could see the PM
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: resign as Leader of National ahead of the caucus and
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: effectively as PM in a matter of ours. If the
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: numbers are not in his favor the writings on the wall,
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: he could clear the decks for the caucus to focus
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: on electing his replacement. I've been speaking to National Party
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: MPs and former MPs over the past two weeks because
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: that's how long this thing has been really dragging on
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: Behind the scenes. Some are furious with Luckson's leadership, own goals,
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: foot and mouth disease, lack of discipline. There's a feeling
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: that Key and others in the party have been covering
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: for Luckson's mistakes, hammering the message that any change will
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: mean catastrophe come polling day. Talk of a Stanford Mitchell
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: ticket with Bishop as finance tells you that unlike last time,
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: the leadership hopefuls have organized with a viable alternative, notably
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: excluding Nikola Willis. Anyone who tells you that they know
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: what will happen today is making it up. As much
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: as twenty five percent of the caucus are set to
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: lose their jobs on current polling. If Luxon loses his today,
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: it will be a gamble, a roll of the dice,
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: a massive risk if they stick with Luxin. How can
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: you credibly say you're unified behind your leader after two
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: spills in four months. Leaders confident in their support don't
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: need to call confidence votes in themselves, and certainly not
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: twice Ryan Bridge twenty eight minutes after five So basically
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: anything could happen. I mean, I think it's fifty to fifty.
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: At this point, Ryan Erica Stamford, Ryan Erica Stamford, literally
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: Stamford will emerge. Luxon is wounded and will go look
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: his wounds. Ryan, I'm a national voter, Erica Stanford. They're
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: coming too fast. I can't keep up. National stuff is
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: a media beat up. Yeah, Look, I wouldn't disagree that
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: the media does get over hyped, as it's inclined to do.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: But at the at the first point, no one is
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: denying Thomas Coglan's story, right. No one has come out
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: and said, oh it's all lies. There was no one leaking.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: There was more than one. So yeah, it's it's over hyped,
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: no doubt about it. But that doesn't mean it's not true.
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: News talksb We're in the UK.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Next the Early Edition full show podcast on iHeartRadio How
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: It By News Talks, the first word on the news
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: of the day, Early Edition with Ryan Bridge and Sparks
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: for Business Technology that keeps business moving.
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: News Talks. That'd be so I'm pretty far away from
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: six year on News Talks. It'd be great to have
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: your company. We'll talk about the leadership stuff in a
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: second with Bridget Morton. We will go to Gavin Gray
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: in the UK. They're having a solar eclipse and you're
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: losing their minds about it. Over there by the way.
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: Over in South Africa, our AB's are doing very well,
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: thank you very much. We are what ten to fifteen
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: minutes in now half an hour in and the AB's
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: have scored twice. It's fourteen Neil against the Sharks.
• 18:39
  Speaker 12: Spitting it off. It takes a go on the twenty
• 18:41
  Speaker 12: two links up with McKenzie. Now McKenzie might get to try.
• 18:45
  Speaker 12: Don't know if he was in the field or not.
• 18:46
  Speaker 12: Referee here, it's okay, twelve mil kicks to come.
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: Pretty cool. Solo hawker from Martinano overnight as well. Now
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: very quickly some of your texts on the leadership question.
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: I asked you just send me your name. Who do
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: you want to be the leader of the New National
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: Party after today? And including luxon, you know, because that's
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: also a positive. I think it's fifty fifty at this point. Anyway.
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: Erica is Stanford, Erica is Stanford, Erika stamp There was
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: a straw poll of ZB listeners this morning. Erica Stamford
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: is coming out on top. However, there are texts like
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: this one Luxon, anyone else would be suicidal. This is
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: from Clayton Ryan. You know the Erica Stanford story. Absolutely amazing.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: I love her. The problem is, and this is an
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: interesting problem to have, the problem is, she is such
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: a fantastic Minister of Education. I can't think of anybody
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: to take her place in that role if she took
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: Luxon's place. Now, saying that somebody is so good at
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: their current job that you don't want them to get
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: another one tells you something about the person, doesn't it
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: And the way people view her. Twenty two minutes away
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: from six o'clock, Rayan Bridge Shadow apportters around the country
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: in Cullum's and Dunedin Morning. Cullum Morning. Right, what's this
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: new opportunity for Otago's young entrepreneurs.
• 20:00
  Speaker 7: Well, it's a ten week enterprise Accelerator program. More than
• 20:03
  Speaker 7: two hundred and forty young people from around the South, Duanedan,
• 20:07
  Speaker 7: Kluther and the wy Tucky are being given a leg
• 20:09
  Speaker 7: up into business and employment through this program. The programs
• 20:13
  Speaker 7: received one hundred and twenty thousand dollars in government funding,
• 20:17
  Speaker 7: and so it's for fifteen to twenty four year olds.
• 20:18
  Speaker 7: It gives them practical workshops to develop business strategies and
• 20:22
  Speaker 7: tournaments adventures. Minister James Meagha says it's about unlocking potential
• 20:26
  Speaker 7: and helping youth gain real world experience and confidence to
• 20:30
  Speaker 7: pursue these opportunities that might otherwise feel out of reach.
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: How's your weather?
• 20:34
  Speaker 7: A few spots are rained possible through our day? Are
• 20:37
  Speaker 7: strong nor east of the high twelve? Last one clearsan
• 20:39
  Speaker 7: christ Church Morning.
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: Claire, Good morning the mayors. I've been watching his sort
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: of sola campaign for some time now. He wants the
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: christ Church to be the soul of power future.
• 20:50
  Speaker 13: Yes, we already have those really big solar power plants
• 20:53
  Speaker 13: out by the airport, I think one of the Southern
• 20:55
  Speaker 13: Hemisphere's biggest. But now the Mayor has been over to
• 20:59
  Speaker 13: China in recent weeks and part of that trip was
• 21:02
  Speaker 13: to look at the way they use solar projects. His
• 21:05
  Speaker 13: big idea now is that we could have christ Church
• 21:08
  Speaker 13: creating solar or having solar panels fixed above some of
• 21:12
  Speaker 13: our big ascents, like the wastewater treatment plant at Bromley
• 21:15
  Speaker 13: for example. Now, film Major says, if successful, he hopes
• 21:18
  Speaker 13: this concept would then be able to be used at
• 21:20
  Speaker 13: other council science, including the likes of Pata Ciure, the
• 21:23
  Speaker 13: big Metro sports center in the city. Major says, the
• 21:26
  Speaker 13: key is putting these solar panels where the power is
• 21:29
  Speaker 13: then being used, so we don't have to sort of
• 21:31
  Speaker 13: transit the power across the city. He says he's keen
• 21:34
  Speaker 13: to see how much cheaper it would be with more
• 21:36
  Speaker 13: coverage and less cost.
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: How's your weather clear?
• 21:40
  Speaker 13: Very Drisley this morning. There will be some fine breaks
• 21:42
  Speaker 13: a bit later northeasterlies as we make our way to thirteen.
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: Nice one, Thank you, Max and Willington. Morning Max, good morning.
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: We'll get to the coup weather in a second. We'll
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: start with the water and the error in the billing.
• 21:54
  Speaker 14: Yes, we obviously have the first quarterly water bills sent
• 21:57
  Speaker 14: out under Neuanity Taqi a couple of weeks ago, several
• 22:01
  Speaker 14: hundred bucks. Certainly took some homeowners by surprise. We had
• 22:05
  Speaker 14: Andrew Little Mayor in the studio last week. He couldn't
• 22:08
  Speaker 14: necessarily see why, He said the council had been signed
• 22:10
  Speaker 14: posting these bills for months. They are now, of course
• 22:13
  Speaker 14: separate from rates. What he did say though, is perhaps
• 22:17
  Speaker 14: the new rates bills could have been sent out first
• 22:20
  Speaker 14: people open them up and say, hey, it's less than
• 22:22
  Speaker 14: I thought. And then the water bill arrives and it's
• 22:24
  Speaker 14: all right, So an optic optics thing. Then, in other words,
• 22:28
  Speaker 14: you've now got the boss of tiaki Y, Michael Brewster,
• 22:31
  Speaker 14: telling the Post we definitely messed up by sending the
• 22:34
  Speaker 14: water bills. First, he says, I made an assumption. It
• 22:37
  Speaker 14: was a poor assumption. I'm the chief executive, I shoulder
• 22:39
  Speaker 14: the responsibility. This is, of course, a new entity replacing
• 22:43
  Speaker 14: a historically inept unfavorable one, and its reputation is already
• 22:47
  Speaker 14: taking a lot of.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: Hits, and I just can't get it together. How's the
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: weather there.
• 22:53
  Speaker 14: Well, perhaps metaphorically cloud's cloudy for much of the day,
• 22:56
  Speaker 14: partly cloudy weather, not Easterly's fifteen.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: Don't thank you, Neigh's an all good more good morning.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: Now some residents near this reserve want council to remove
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: temporary waste enclosure.
• 23:08
  Speaker 9: Yes, now, this is all about these residents which they've
• 23:11
  Speaker 9: had enough of the visitors and residents of nearby Karwhole
• 23:14
  Speaker 9: Island dumping their rubbish. So currently a temporary waste enclosure exists.
• 23:19
  Speaker 9: This is near Sandspit Wharf, where people you know, returning
• 23:22
  Speaker 9: from the island, they can put in their rubbish. But
• 23:25
  Speaker 9: the Sanspit Residents and Ratepairs Association they want this closure
• 23:28
  Speaker 9: removed and they want people just to you know, you're
• 23:31
  Speaker 9: coming back from Kawah Island, take your rubbish, take your
• 23:34
  Speaker 9: wasst with you. Greg Doherty, he's in the association. This
• 23:38
  Speaker 9: is the Sandspit Residents and Ratepayers Association. He says, Look,
• 23:41
  Speaker 9: currently it's leading to rubbish overflow.
• 23:44
  Speaker 8: The odor, the damage to this reserve.
• 23:46
  Speaker 9: So yeah, he says, it operates without resource consent currently
• 23:51
  Speaker 9: and effectively subsidized by mainland ratepayers.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: They should have to go to the tip and just
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: do their dumping. A thought too. Most places, like you know,
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: if you go to places up north like Russell for example,
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: you go in there and if you're getting an Airbnb
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: or something like that, you know, you take your rubbish
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: with you normally, yes, and you go and dump it
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: in the tip on the way out of town. I
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: would assume they should be doing something like that.
• 24:12
  Speaker 9: They should And how much would you pay for that?
• 24:14
  Speaker 9: Have you sound like you've been there.
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: I've been there recently. I can tell you it's less
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: than ten.
• 24:20
  Speaker 9: Yeah, Well that's that's fine.
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: But yeah, especially coming from an island, you know. Yeah,
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: and cultivation.
• 24:25
  Speaker 9: I've ever been there, but it's a beautiful everyone's talking about.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: There are your moscallow take only photographs, leave only footprints,
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: whatever they do. How's our weather?
• 24:34
  Speaker 9: Neiva gout increasing scattered rain? Sixteen the high nice.

• 24:43
  Speaker 3: resaver provider, they often focus on a single thing. Maybe
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: it's the returns, maybe it's the fees, maybe it's just
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: where they have their bank account, but it makes sense
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: to look at the whole picture. Over the past ten years,

• 25:36
  Speaker 3: you're on news Talks thereb very quickly before we head
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: to the UK, I just want to tell you about Trump.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: So you know, he was over in Turkey at the
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: NATO summit and left. Suddenly everyone went, oh, Trump has
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: stormed out of the NATO summit. Turns out there was
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: a threat from the Iranians, an assassination threat, and they
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: were following this as the Secret Service following this threat,
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: and they were so worried about it that they hid
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: the president inside a catering container. This is the story,
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: which is I shouldn't laugh. It's a serious matter. But
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: just thought of Donald Trump and a catering cart being
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: wheeled across the tarmac into a plane is quite funny.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: So he was in front of the media, gets on
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: Air Force one, in front of the TV cameras, wave
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: or anything like that, and then was secretly smuggled off
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: that plane onto a second plane via a catering cart,
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: and it was onto a military plane and that's the
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: one he actually left.

  Speaker 1: On International correspondence with Ensie Eye Insurance Peace of Mind

  Speaker 1: for New Zealand Business.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: Thirdteen minutes away from six o'clock. Gavin Gray is a
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: UK europe correspondent. Gavin, what's going on with the prisoners
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: in Burnham?
• 26:46
  Speaker 8: Yeah, so, I'm afraid the honeymoon period for our Prime
• 26:48
  Speaker 8: Minister Andy Burnham seems to be well and truly over.
• 26:51
  Speaker 8: When his predecessor took over power, a new political party
• 26:55
  Speaker 8: came in and discovered that the prisons were pretty much full,
• 26:59
  Speaker 8: meaning that they somehow needed to be emptied out or asked.
• 27:02
  Speaker 8: People simply weren't going to be able to be sent
• 27:04
  Speaker 8: to prison or held in custody. So that was when
• 27:06
  Speaker 8: Sekeir Starmer Andy Burnham's process to predecessor introduced the early
• 27:10
  Speaker 8: reforms in which some prisoners were being released after just
• 27:14
  Speaker 8: one third of their sentence. Now the problem for Andy
• 27:17
  Speaker 8: Burnham is he's taken over and two young men are
• 27:21
  Speaker 8: due to be released shortly who are well rather infamous.
• 27:25
  Speaker 8: That is because they were involved in the death of
• 27:27
  Speaker 8: a police officer who went to investigate a theft at
• 27:30
  Speaker 8: a farm and this pair were passengers in a car
• 27:34
  Speaker 8: that drove away, but the police officer that went to
• 27:37
  Speaker 8: investigate it got caught in the toe rope and was
• 27:39
  Speaker 8: dragged for several hundred yards to his death. It was
• 27:42
  Speaker 8: particularly awful and made graphic headlines back in twenty twenty
• 27:46
  Speaker 8: as I said they are due and eligible for release.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 27:49
  Speaker 8: Initially Andy Burnham pushed out all his ministers saying well,
• 27:53
  Speaker 8: we can't. Nothing can be done. The law can't be
• 27:55
  Speaker 8: changed retrospectively anyway, you know, parliament's on holiday, etc. Etc.
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: I don't know you run.
• 28:00
  Speaker 8: I thought we actually elected people to change the laws,
• 28:03
  Speaker 8: but he said they couldn't, And now all of a
• 28:05
  Speaker 8: sudden he appears that they can, with Andy Burnham today
• 28:09
  Speaker 8: saying that he's increasingly confident that the government can free
• 28:12
  Speaker 8: up space in overcrowded prisons to prevent the early release
• 28:16
  Speaker 8: of the most serious offenders. Lots of different options, including
• 28:19
  Speaker 8: potentially sending back lots of foreign prisoners. There are foreign nationals.
• 28:24
  Speaker 8: One in eight of our prisoners are foreign nationals. But
• 28:27
  Speaker 8: it's not clear how it's going to work in practice.
• 28:30
  Speaker 8: And of course, now having changed his mind or seeming
• 28:32
  Speaker 8: to have changed his mind, he's being accused of u
• 28:35
  Speaker 8: turns by his opponents.
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: Have you got any Are you excited about the solar eclipse?
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Partial solar eclipse? You're going to go out?
• 28:43
  Speaker 8: Yes, twenty four hours now it'll be at its peak
• 28:46
  Speaker 8: and it's going to be a big one there about
• 28:47
  Speaker 8: ninety percent. Again, lots of warnings that don't look straight
• 28:50
  Speaker 8: to at it gets some solar eclipse classes and stuff,
• 28:53
  Speaker 8: yet not often we in here in the little island
• 28:56
  Speaker 8: of the UK. Treaty is such a thing. But it
• 28:59
  Speaker 8: looks like most of it and Wales will have clear skys,
• 29:02
  Speaker 8: meaning we should be able to see it. So yeah,
• 29:05
  Speaker 8: quite a treat install.
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: All right, goods here from your Gevin Gray are UK
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: you're correspondent. By the way they're saying, the solar power,
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: the solar panels could be affected, so just go easy
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: on the power while the solar eclipses and place ten
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: minutes away from six Bryan Bridge, So Prime Ministers and Wellington.
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: The Surgeon Caucus meeting nine to thirty this morning follows
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: reports of its MP's calling each other doing the numbers,
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: discussing whether to roll them. So is he toast?
• 29:29
  Speaker 15: Last week the Peam apologized for remarks about rot Aurora,
• 29:32
  Speaker 15: and obviously there's been a bit of debate about the MMP.
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: You know, coll but we beck our leader.
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: You do have confidence in the Prime Minister one hundred
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: and fifty percent.
• 29:42
  Speaker 9: Here's the man and here's the boss.
• 29:44
  Speaker 14: I mean, on what they're doing and what's happening.
• 29:47
  Speaker 7: All I know is we've got a meeting tomorrow nine
• 29:49
  Speaker 7: thirty and Wellington.
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: Bridget more than political commentator with me this morning. Bridget,
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: good morning, Good morning. So what's going to happen today?
• 29:57
  Speaker 10: Well, I mean, the number one thing that has to
• 29:59
  Speaker 10: happen is that they have to emerge from that caucus
• 30:01
  Speaker 10: meeting with a definitive answer on who is going to
• 30:04
  Speaker 10: be leading this country and who's going to be taken
• 30:06
  Speaker 10: into the election. They can't let this drag on any longer.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: If Luxon comes back and as leader after the second vote,
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: can you credibly say yeah, we're back behind our leader.
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: If you're having two spells in four.
• 30:19
  Speaker 10: Months, it's going to be really difficult for them to
• 30:23
  Speaker 10: demonstrate that they are a unified caucus, and it is
• 30:26
  Speaker 10: going to be difficult for them to demonstrate that this
• 30:28
  Speaker 10: kind of speculation is not going to plague them all
• 30:30
  Speaker 10: the way through to election, Dame.
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: And beyond right, Sure we might vote national and elect
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: Luxon as prime minister, but will he stayed prime minister?
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: Those questions too.
• 30:41
  Speaker 10: Yeah, absolutely, And I think that's what a number of
• 30:44
  Speaker 10: MPs are looking down the future. Obviously they all want
• 30:46
  Speaker 10: to be there for another term, but they're also looking
• 30:50
  Speaker 10: at what that second term might look like.
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: Then there's snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. That
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: is a possibility if you switch. It's an unknown quantity
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: looking like Erica Stamford would be at the top of
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: the ticket, but untested, don't know a lot of question marks.
• 31:06
  Speaker 10: There's a lot of really actually tested I think senior
• 31:09
  Speaker 10: ministers that have spent a lot of time round politics
• 31:13
  Speaker 10: and actually delivering. So don't think you can say it's
• 31:16
  Speaker 10: completely unknown and quantum. I think a lot of people
• 31:19
  Speaker 10: actually know a lot about these different politicians and what
• 31:21
  Speaker 10: they might look like as leaders.
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: Bridget what do you think they should do?
• 31:27
  Speaker 10: I think the number one thing they have to do
• 31:28
  Speaker 10: is stop talking about themselves and get back to actually
• 31:31
  Speaker 10: talking about what voters want, because regardless of whether they
• 31:34
  Speaker 10: make a leadership change or not, they're still looking at
• 31:37
  Speaker 10: the possibility of being a one ten government.
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: Bridget, thank you, Bridget Morton, political commentator with us this morning.
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: That meeting is nine point thirty. Of course we could
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: hear from the PM before that it is seven minutes
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: away from six. By the way, that AB's still ahead
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: halftime forteing nil against the Sharks.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines on early edition with Ryan
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: Bridge and Spark for business Technology that keeps business, This
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: moving news talks.
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: That'd be five to six morning, Mike Greetings. Should we
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: go to the listeners. Ryan Luxton will be the leader
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: hopefully the troublemakers found and the left leaning media and
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: New Zealand's put in its place.
• 32:13
  Speaker 15: Pink's the biggest duplicitor shit out of the whole lot
• 32:16
  Speaker 15: of them so far. And what he's doing involved in this,
• 32:20
  Speaker 15: I've got no but he's your main steer. And the
• 32:22
  Speaker 15: interesting thing was, well, first of all, the people, the
• 32:24
  Speaker 15: people running around with a hedge run chopped off last
• 32:27
  Speaker 15: night saying it was done last night, the numbers were
• 32:29
  Speaker 15: over they wrong.
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, obviously, Yeah, so it's not a dumb thing.
• 32:32
  Speaker 15: I'm told by people that I'm reasonably confident with that
• 32:36
  Speaker 15: they are quote unquote quietly confident.
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: But quietly it's emphasist on quietly.
• 32:42
  Speaker 15: Well, there's no one. No one's going to that I
• 32:44
  Speaker 15: talk to, who's going to go. Don't worry about it, mate,
• 32:46
  Speaker 15: we're home free because they're not.
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: Yes, But doesn't that tell you something that this guy
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: and he's said, Look, I'm not disparaging the good things
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: he has done, but two leadership votes Confident people don't
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: call confidence votes in themselves.
• 32:58
  Speaker 15: Twic's the most that's the the biggest thing working against them,
• 33:02
  Speaker 15: which is how many times you want to go through this?
• 33:04
  Speaker 15: And so but he's between a rock and a hard place.
• 33:07
  Speaker 15: He had to call today because to let he's getting
• 33:10
  Speaker 15: white handed by bishops, another white ant. I had that
• 33:12
  Speaker 15: confirmed yesterday. He's out there undermining Luxe and I know
• 33:16
  Speaker 15: that to be true. So that carries on to the election.
• 33:20
  Speaker 15: So you've got to try and nip it in the
• 33:22
  Speaker 15: baby and can potentially beyond it too. That's the other
• 33:25
  Speaker 15: thing I don't know. No, See, this is whoever you
• 33:27
  Speaker 15: had on before. I think that's where they're wrong. If
• 33:30
  Speaker 15: Luxon wins. And this is the mental thing about.
• 33:32
  Speaker 14: This whole thing.
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: Look at the pulse.
• 33:33
  Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean, you know, honestly, but if they win,
• 33:37
  Speaker 15: If lux And wins on the seventh of November, this
• 33:39
  Speaker 15: all goes away, instantly goes away, because you're a winner.
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: You're a winner, and they love winner. But how much,
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: how many? But how much have you won by?
• 33:48
  Speaker 15: That's that doesn't matter because the people who didn't win
• 33:50
  Speaker 15: aren't there.
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: Do you want to be do you want to be
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: walking around for three years? As a cut to Winston
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: and Seymour, Well, that's.
• 33:57
  Speaker 15: The don't if you don't like, if you don't, if
• 33:59
  Speaker 15: you don't like, and then you shouldn't have voted for it,
