- 1:35Speaker 3: warrant for former Prime Minister Shaike Hassena, who fled the
- 1:38Speaker 3: country in August amid a nationwide protest where hundreds were killed.
- 1:42Speaker 3: We covered that. You'll remember that Bangladesh's International Criminal Tribunal

- 2:26Speaker 3: cons because she does a lot, doesn't she? Nine two
- 2:28Speaker 3: nine two If you've got something you want to pass
- 2:30Speaker 3: through right, This has just come from the Trade Minister,
- 2:35Speaker 3: Todd McClay. This is a press release they've just put out.
- 2:37Speaker 3: New Zealand takes the next steps in dairy dispute with Canada.
- 2:40Speaker 3: This is all over them blocking New Zealand's dairy access
- 2:45Speaker 3: and there had been a ruling that was made by
- 2:47Speaker 3: a panel of arbitrags and then Canada has apparently failed
- 2:52Speaker 3: to comply with the ruling. Under the agreement, the next
- 2:55Speaker 3: step is for New Zealand to request formal negotiations. So
- 2:59Speaker 3: this press is essentially the New Zealand government today notifying
- 3:03Speaker 3: the Canadian government and other members of the cp TPP
- 3:08Speaker 3: that they've triggered a mandatory negotiation with a dairy dispute
- 3:13Speaker 3: with to do with Canada. So there you go. That's
- 3:14Speaker 3: all happening just this morning. Is number to tix has
- 3:18Speaker 3: just gone nine minutes after five on News Talk Ryan Bridge.
- 3:24Speaker 3: We've also got some numbers from Inframetrics this morning, which
- 3:28Speaker 3: we'll get to just on the state of play. I
- 3:31Speaker 3: know we've had a lot of drop. You know, the
- 3:32Speaker 3: ocr's coming down, inflation's coming back and banned, and people
- 3:35Speaker 3: are feeling good. Well, people aren't feeling that good right now.
- 3:40Speaker 3: I'll tell you how long it might take until there's
- 3:43Speaker 3: a smile on our dials. It's ten up to five.
- 3:52Speaker 1: The news you need this morning and the in depth
- 3:54Speaker 1: analysis early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New
- 3:59Speaker 1: Zealand's furniture.
- 4:00Speaker 2: It's hand a playing store.
- 4:01Speaker 3: News Talk said, be he's gone twelve minutes after five.
- 4:03Speaker 3: Great to have you with me this morning. We're going
- 4:05Speaker 3: to go to Judith Collins season Brussels for a NATO
- 4:07Speaker 3: meeting that's coming up in just a few minutes. Right now, though,
- 4:11Speaker 3: the aviation industry is warning of a pilot and engineer
- 4:14Speaker 3: shortage because it's becoming too expensive to pay for training. Basically,
- 4:17Speaker 3: demand for pilots is going up. In twenty twenty three,
- 4:20Speaker 3: sorry twenty thirteen, the government capped how much students could
- 4:24Speaker 3: borrow to cover their training costs. That much is thirty
- 4:28Speaker 3: That amount rather is thirty five thousand dollars per year,
- 4:31Speaker 3: and it can cost as much as one hundred and
- 4:32Speaker 3: twenty thousand for two years of flying courses. So Irene
- 4:37Speaker 3: King is the chief executive at Ardmore Flying School. She's
- 4:39Speaker 3: with me this morning. Good morning, Irene, good morning, Good
- 4:42Speaker 3: to have you on the show. That is very expensive.
- 4:46Speaker 3: What is the shortage or is the shortage just down
- 4:49Speaker 3: the line, it's coming later.
- 4:52Speaker 6: Look, we've got a shortage right now. We're finding it
- 4:55Speaker 6: incredibly hard to track kiwis into into the sector to
- 5:03Speaker 6: undertake training, and that's because they have to self fund,
- 5:07Speaker 6: unlike any other qualification, and they have to self fund
- 5:11Speaker 6: up to fifty thousand dollars per program. Now what you
- 5:16Speaker 6: described was a two year program to be really well
- 5:21Speaker 6: qualified in get into the airlines. You really need to do,
- 5:27Speaker 6: you know, another six to nine months and then you
- 5:30Speaker 6: need to get a job. And most of those jobs
- 5:33Speaker 6: are with in the training industry itself.
- 5:36Speaker 3: So most who graduate the pilot training school try and
- 5:40Speaker 3: go on to train that's right.
- 5:43Speaker 6: You know, the trainers train the trainers, and that's that's
- 5:46Speaker 6: the good question. They have to get a few hours
- 5:53Speaker 6: behind them, and you know.
- 5:56Speaker 3: I get this, I get this is expensive. Is there
- 5:59Speaker 3: an sgument for your your in New Zealand's or do
- 6:01Speaker 3: they already cover some of that cost? You know, I say, right,
- 6:04Speaker 3: these these young men and women look good. I'll cover
- 6:08Speaker 3: their cost now and I know that and bond them
- 6:10Speaker 3: to me later.
- 6:12Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a difficult concept. Yes, they are trying it,
- 6:16Speaker 6: but you know, you've got some issues around selection, and
- 6:22Speaker 6: you know, not everyone to cut out, even though they
- 6:24Speaker 6: might look great on paper. You get them in and
- 6:28Speaker 6: you know, yeah, yeah, exactly.
- 6:30Speaker 3: You know you can't be you can't be putting all
- 6:32Speaker 3: your eggs in a couple of baskets, can you?
- 6:35Speaker 2: All Right?
- 6:35Speaker 3: So what is so? What is the solution? But what
- 6:38Speaker 3: do we need to do about this?
- 6:40Speaker 6: Okay? Essentially this problem has been brought on by policy
- 6:47Speaker 6: settings of the government. You know, you talked about the
- 6:50Speaker 6: policy settings in two thousand and We're trying to run
- 6:53Speaker 6: a business in twenty twenty four costumes, but all our
- 6:58Speaker 6: income is frozen and twenty twenty thirteen dollars. So there's
- 7:03Speaker 6: got to be addressed. We've got to have the ability
- 7:06Speaker 6: to train more that was frozen in two thousand and thirty.
- 7:11Speaker 6: The aviation world today is very different from what it
- 7:15Speaker 6: was in two thousan thirteen. Now the third and probably
- 7:19Speaker 6: the most interesting challenge in some respects is actually getting
- 7:24Speaker 6: the qualification the syllabus, which was written in the mid
- 7:29Speaker 6: fifties updating translated.
- 7:32Speaker 3: Yeah because otherwise people, Yeah, it's abit ancient history at
- 7:35Speaker 3: the moment is now I remember. We have to leave
- 7:37Speaker 3: it there because due to Collins over in Brussels, she's
- 7:40Speaker 3: calling in for us next. It's sixteen minutes after five
- 7:43Speaker 3: News Talks.
- 7:43Speaker 1: He be the first word on the News of the
- 7:46Speaker 1: Day early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New
- 7:50Speaker 1: Zealand's furniture Beds and a player store News Talk Cibby.
- 7:54Speaker 3: You're on News Talk c he b just gone eighteen
- 7:56Speaker 3: minutes after five. The NATO Defense Minister's Meeting has been
- 7:59Speaker 3: held Brussels amid ongoing global tensions the Middle East, Europe.
- 8:04Speaker 3: Where isn't it happening? Frankly? Earlier this week, China held
- 8:07Speaker 3: military drills that completely surrounded Taiwan, just a few weeks
- 8:11Speaker 3: after the hmnz Alte was sailed through the Taiwan straight.
- 8:15Speaker 3: Ukraine's President Zezelenski is set to be at the meeting today.
- 8:18Speaker 3: Judith Collins is our defense minister and she's with us
- 8:21Speaker 3: live from Brussels. Minister, welcome to the show. Oh hi Ryan,
- 8:27Speaker 3: great to have you here. Minister. Tell me, I understand
- 8:29Speaker 3: you've been meeting with the US Sector Defense, Lloyd Austin,
- 8:32Speaker 3: You've been meeting with the Secretary General of NATO. What
- 8:36Speaker 3: are you being told? What is the key thing New
- 8:38Speaker 3: Zealand needs to know about from your meetings.
- 8:41Speaker 7: So we've had a meeting as well of the all
- 8:44Speaker 7: of the defense ministers and what's called the IP four
- 8:49Speaker 7: and that's ourselves, Australia, Japan, and South Korea Republic of Korea.
- 8:55Speaker 7: We're all hearing the same thing that what happens in Europe,
- 8:57Speaker 7: what happens in Ukraine, actually met in the Indo Pacific region,
- 9:01Speaker 7: and what happens in the Pacific is being noted and
- 9:04Speaker 7: matters to Europe as well as NATO generally. So what
- 9:09Speaker 7: we're hearing is everything's interconnected. I think many of us
- 9:13Speaker 7: know that, but it's being noted that the world is
- 9:16Speaker 7: quite a different place than it was a few years ago.
- 9:20Speaker 3: Do you think that NATO's an organization that could ever
- 9:23Speaker 3: expand furtherest South?
- 9:26Speaker 7: Well, no one's talking about that, and certainly on their rules.
- 9:29Speaker 7: Anybody knew joining NATO would have to come from Europe,
- 9:33Speaker 7: and so I don't think that's the point. But the
- 9:36Speaker 7: fact is that the IP four has been invited. This
- 9:40Speaker 7: is our very first time as defense ministers for the
- 9:44Speaker 7: end of Pacific four to be invited to the NATO
- 9:47Speaker 7: discussions and be invited to NATO Defense Ministers meeting. What
- 9:51Speaker 7: I'm really hearing is because we always know New Zealand
- 9:54Speaker 7: knows that what happens in Europe's important to us, but
- 9:58Speaker 7: it's good to hear the europe and the members of NATO,
- 10:01Speaker 7: Canada and US, as well as Europeans and Turkey actually
- 10:06Speaker 7: saying it matters to them too what happens in the
- 10:09Speaker 7: Pacific and the end of the Pacific region.
- 10:11Speaker 3: Thet's talk about with your with your Attorney General hat
- 10:14Speaker 3: On from a moment, just if I could, minister, the
- 10:17Speaker 3: Solicitor General says that you need to think carefully about
- 10:20Speaker 3: a particular decision, decision where a person is mildly This
- 10:22Speaker 3: is obviously be an issue that's been bubbling away here
- 10:25Speaker 3: in New Zealand. David Semour's had something to say about it.
- 10:28Speaker 3: What do you have to say about it?
- 10:30Speaker 7: Well, I'm really clear on this. The law needs to
- 10:34Speaker 7: be blind as the people's ethnicity or who they are.
- 10:38Speaker 7: And I'm very much of the view that these are
- 10:42Speaker 7: these Solicitor General's prosecution guidelines. They're certainly not rules, they're guidelines.
- 10:48Speaker 7: But actually I did not write a forward to them,
- 10:52Speaker 7: as most attorneys have been in the past, and I
- 10:56Speaker 7: do not agree that people should be treated differently based
- 11:00Speaker 7: on their ethnocity. It's simply not in my understanding, that
- 11:05Speaker 7: is what we should have. We have the rule of
- 11:08Speaker 7: law that need that means that everyone is subject to
- 11:10Speaker 7: the same law.
- 11:11Speaker 3: Has these solicited general, in your view, overstepped their independence, Well.
- 11:18Speaker 7: Sister General is independent in relation to individual cases, but
- 11:25Speaker 7: we've had it. Obviously this is different because of the
- 11:30Speaker 7: way it's words. I think it has led people to
- 11:32Speaker 7: believe that Mari or will be treated differently when it
- 11:37Speaker 7: comes to prosecution decisions. My view is that all prosecution
- 11:42Speaker 7: decisions should be carefully thought about, because it's not just
- 11:46Speaker 7: about whether or not someone can be prosecuted. It should
- 11:50Speaker 7: they be prosecuted in those circumstances, And we know that
- 11:54Speaker 7: that's something that's that's standards, but based on ethnosity.
- 11:59Speaker 3: No, so will this solicit will anything change or is
- 12:02Speaker 3: there nothing actually you can do?
- 12:05Speaker 6: Well?
- 12:06Speaker 7: There these are the sister Generals. I think that she
- 12:10Speaker 7: is looking at the fact that there has been an
- 12:15Speaker 7: overwhelming backlash from the public, but that's something that she
- 12:19Speaker 7: needs to come to herself. I'm very clear myself that
- 12:23Speaker 7: the law must not discriminate based on ethnicity.
- 12:28Speaker 3: Sarma. The navigation records of the monumentue have apparently been
- 12:33Speaker 3: found by a British warship. Have you been briefed on
- 12:35Speaker 3: that and what else are they finding?
- 12:38Speaker 7: No, I've seen that there has been some very good
- 12:42Speaker 7: information has been found by the HTMs TMMA which was
- 12:46Speaker 7: in the area, and for the obviously to see what
- 12:49Speaker 7: they could do to help. That will no doubt be
- 12:52Speaker 7: going through defense. It will be part of the investigation,
- 12:55Speaker 7: which is a court of inquiry set up under the
- 13:00Speaker 7: Armed Forces Discipline Act, so no doubt be part of that.
- 13:05Speaker 3: Do you have any update on the size of any
- 13:07Speaker 3: oil leaks.
- 13:10Speaker 7: Well, I think there's very little that we can say
- 13:12Speaker 7: about oil leaks in terms of not so much that
- 13:15Speaker 7: more diesel, and even then it seems to be relatively small.
- 13:20Speaker 7: There are a couple of leaks understand that have been
- 13:24Speaker 7: stopped and that the main work now is going on
- 13:27Speaker 7: to remove the containers, but also to see what else
- 13:32Speaker 7: can be done in terms of removal of the fuel
- 13:35Speaker 7: that is remaining those big tanks. Certainly, everything I've seen
- 13:39Speaker 7: and been told is that although it's always very concerning
- 13:43Speaker 7: and we certainly don't want something happening and is a
- 13:46Speaker 7: massive leak or anything like that, so far it's not
- 13:49Speaker 7: nearly as bad as we thought it might have been
- 13:51Speaker 7: at the start.
- 13:53Speaker 3: Just coming back to NATO for a second, and obviously
- 13:55Speaker 3: we're not a part of NATO, it's now before. But
- 13:59Speaker 3: the bottom is ASKI has made it very clear that
- 14:01Speaker 3: part of his victory plan is being part of NATO,
- 14:05Speaker 3: is being a member of NATO, and you can understand
- 14:07Speaker 3: the reluctance from some countries within it to that. But
- 14:11Speaker 3: I mean, is that what victory means for Ukraine?
- 14:15Speaker 7: I don't know, you'd have to ask him. My concern
- 14:18Speaker 7: is is that Ukraine has been illegally and immorally invaded
- 14:23Speaker 7: by Russia. It has caused immense misery to the people
- 14:28Speaker 7: Ukraine did nothing to deserve that, and I'm just really
- 14:32Speaker 7: pleased that New Zealand has both the previous government and
- 14:37Speaker 7: ours stepped up and done what we can to assist Ukraine,
- 14:42Speaker 7: and I think it's you know, the international rules based
- 14:46Speaker 7: order is very important for smaller nations. We can't possibly
- 14:50Speaker 7: defend ourselves by ourselves and we need people to stick
- 14:53Speaker 7: to their own borders.
- 14:55Speaker 3: Judith Collins, we really appreciate your time this morning. Thank
- 14:57Speaker 3: you very much for joining us. The Defense Minister Dudiculin
- 15:00Speaker 3: One's live in Brussels, NATO. It is twenty five after
- 15:03Speaker 3: five the early.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Edition full show podcast on iHeartRadio. How It by News
- 15:09Speaker 1: Talk ZIV.
- 15:10Speaker 3: It has just got twenty seven minutes after five. You're
- 15:12Speaker 3: on News Talk CB. I feel very very sad for
- 15:15Speaker 3: the family and for the friends of Liam Payne. This
- 15:17Speaker 3: is the One Direction Star. A lot of people, I
- 15:19Speaker 3: think will know who One Direction is because they were
- 15:21Speaker 3: on X Factor UK and everyone loves Expector UK. Anyway,
- 15:26Speaker 3: so he's somehow he has come off a balcony, third
- 15:29Speaker 3: storre balcony and he has lost his life. It's very sad,
- 15:31Speaker 3: it's very tragic. And then you read this. This is
- 15:34Speaker 3: from a BBZ BBC Verify account that says fake footage
- 15:38Speaker 3: is being shared, including one old video purporting to show
- 15:41Speaker 3: the form of one direction star falling from a hotel balcony.
- 15:43Speaker 3: It actually shows someone else falling from a balcony, and
- 15:47Speaker 3: it doesn't match with the actual photos of the scene.
- 15:49Speaker 3: So people just send out create videos, get them from
- 15:53Speaker 3: the back catalog, and then say look at this. I
- 15:55Speaker 3: guess for the clicks. I suppose that's why you would
- 15:57Speaker 3: do it. Real images have also been posted, sparking a
- 16:01Speaker 3: huge backlash, as you can imagine, because of the impact
- 16:04Speaker 3: they could have on as family and friends who'd just
- 16:06Speaker 3: been signing into the Internet, going on Facebook and there's
- 16:08Speaker 3: your son or your brother or whatever. Anyway, that's the
- 16:12Speaker 3: Internet for you. I guess, isn't it not a nice
- 16:14Speaker 3: place to be most of the time. Twenty eight minutes
- 16:17Speaker 3: after five, your on News Talk said big coming up
- 16:20Speaker 3: just before six, We're going to talk to Jason Walls about,
- 16:23Speaker 3: amongst other things, the Green Party Darlene Tana. Essentially she's going,
- 16:30Speaker 3: but it's now in the Speaker's hands to make that official,
- 16:34Speaker 3: make that happen. Our News is next with and Neva.
- 16:38Speaker 3: Then we're round the country to all of our reporters.
- 16:41Speaker 8: Have a great morning, a great sat.
- 17:03Speaker 9: Clenn don't you.
- 17:23Speaker 2: Know get ahead of the headlines.
- 17:33Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge you for twenty twenty four on early edition
- 17:36Speaker 1: with Smith City, New Zealand's furniture bids at a playing store.
- 17:40Speaker 2: News Talk said, B.
- 17:44Speaker 3: Good one in New Zealand twenty four minutes away from
- 17:46Speaker 3: six year on news Talk said B, We're going to
- 17:48Speaker 3: Vincent macavnny our UK. You're ape correspondent just a few
- 17:51Speaker 3: moments checking in on the one direction sty Liam Paigne's family.
- 17:55Speaker 3: They're obviously all UK based and Israel is checking if
- 17:59Speaker 3: they have in fact killed the Hummas leader Yaya Sinwa.
- 18:04Speaker 3: He's basically their number one enemy. And if they did
- 18:07Speaker 3: get him and they've still got to do DNA testing,
- 18:09Speaker 3: they will be celebrating. You can beat your bottom dollar.
- 18:11Speaker 3: It was a routine military operation in Gaza. They weren't
- 18:14Speaker 3: targeting in particular. Three guys come at them, they shoot back,
- 18:18Speaker 3: kill them. Go oh, that sort of looks like the
- 18:22Speaker 3: architect of October seven. And now they're DNA testing. Pretty
- 18:26Speaker 3: confident they are that they have got him, so they
- 18:28Speaker 3: are celebrating that this morning. Also happening today is a
- 18:33Speaker 3: report from Informetrics on our state of our economy basically,
- 18:38Speaker 3: and it says we're going to remain patchy through till
- 18:40Speaker 3: in mid twenty twenty five. I mean that's I guess
- 18:44Speaker 3: we can understand that, can't we Because not all of
- 18:46Speaker 3: us are on floating mortgage interest rates, so things are
- 18:49Speaker 3: going to take time. But midway through next year brad
- 18:52Speaker 3: Olsen Reckins, and then by mid twenty twenty six we
- 18:55Speaker 3: should be having two point seven percent GDP second quarter
- 19:00Speaker 3: second half GUDP for next year revised up slightly as well,
- 19:04Speaker 3: So we'll stay lower for longer and then quicker up.
- 19:07Speaker 3: Hopefully that's the theory anyway. Twenty two away from sex
- 19:10Speaker 3: Bridge to our reporters around the country, Calen Proctor is
- 19:13Speaker 3: indnedan Calen good Morning Morning Riot claims that Fish and
- 19:16Speaker 3: Games moved away from its core business.
- 19:19Speaker 10: Yeah, this is from Federated Farmers. As South And farmers
- 19:23Speaker 10: continue to draw battle lines with Fish and Game, Federated
- 19:27Speaker 10: Farmers calling for the government to strip the Collective Council's
- 19:30Speaker 10: advocacy function. This is all just another step in the saga,
- 19:35Speaker 10: spark by a court decision requiring many South And farmers
- 19:38Speaker 10: to gain a resource consent to lawfully operate a Federated
- 19:41Speaker 10: Farmers South and President Jason Herricks told us Fishing Game
- 19:44Speaker 10: needs to stick to managing and maintaining sports, fish, game,
- 19:47Speaker 10: birds and their habitats. He says it needs to leave
- 19:51Speaker 10: the advocacy and lobbying to fit for purpose groups.
- 19:55Speaker 3: How's the weather in to end today? Pretty good?
- 19:58Speaker 10: Mainly fine, isolated EA showers, northeastlies and sixteen today.
- 20:02Speaker 3: Thank you, and let's get to Claire Sherwood who was
- 20:05Speaker 3: in christ Church for us this morning. Thanks callum, Claire.
- 20:08Speaker 3: There's a cult coming to christ Church?
- 20:10Speaker 6: Is there?
- 20:11Speaker 3: Well, not quite Ryan.
- 20:12Speaker 11: There is a conference about cults in christ Church from today.
- 20:16Speaker 11: About two hundred people are going to attend a symposium
- 20:20Speaker 11: named de cult It gets underway today. There's dozens of
- 20:23Speaker 11: international experts and advocacy leaders who will be discussing cultic
- 20:27Speaker 11: harm and coercion. This is an issue that they used
- 20:30Speaker 11: to make to impact about fifty thousand New Zealanders. The
- 20:33Speaker 11: director of the conference, Unkle Rishta, says those who have
- 20:37Speaker 11: left cults often find them mocked, shamed, or don't receive
- 20:41Speaker 11: the support they require.
- 20:42Speaker 5: She's hopeful that this conference, which.
- 20:44Speaker 11: By the way, is sold out, will help to create
- 20:47Speaker 11: change and provide better services to cult leavers.
- 20:50Speaker 3: I'm smelling, ironically, I'm smelling a cult here. How much
- 20:53Speaker 3: does it are they paying for tickets?
- 20:55Speaker 7: Oh? I couldn't tell you, but I can find that out.
- 20:57Speaker 5: Would you like to go?
- 20:58Speaker 3: I'll get you a media passed go. But you know,
- 21:01Speaker 3: I'm thinking, if these are all people susceptible to colts
- 21:04Speaker 3: and they're coming to join an anti colt colt, you know,
- 21:07Speaker 3: and they're asking for money, I don't know.
- 21:09Speaker 2: Is that a cult?
- 21:11Speaker 3: Anyway? What's what's the weather like today? Clear?
- 21:14Speaker 11: Oh, it's nice and crash itch for d cult. Mainly
- 21:16Speaker 11: fine morning and evening cloud passable showers a bit later
- 21:20Speaker 11: easterlies and the highest seventeen brilliant Thank.
- 21:22Speaker 3: You in Mexus. In Wellington, leaky pipes are backmex Yeah.
- 21:26Speaker 12: For a few months it almost seemed as if we
- 21:28Speaker 12: hadn't heard much about leeks, burst pipes, sinkholes around the region.
- 21:32Speaker 2: But after the decent.
- 21:33Speaker 12: Shake we got a couple of weeks ago that quake,
- 21:36Speaker 12: which Wellington Water warned would have consequences for infrastructure. We
- 21:40Speaker 12: have now had two major leaks in the city, one
- 21:43Speaker 12: down near Parliament on Featherston Street that flooded an intersection
- 21:47Speaker 12: with a raw wastewater a couple of weeks ago also
- 21:49Speaker 12: made its way into the harbor, made it unsafe to
- 21:51Speaker 12: swim for.
- 21:52Speaker 3: A few days.
- 21:53Speaker 12: And then later yesterday cast iron main burst under Vivian Street,
- 21:58Speaker 12: a drinking water pipe that's also State Highway one, of course,
- 22:01Speaker 12: flooding a decent block there blocking a lane. Water service
- 22:05Speaker 12: did return to locals late yesterday and needed to be said,
- 22:08Speaker 12: not great timing. With almost two billion dollars already set
- 22:11Speaker 12: aside for water infrastructure in the long Term Plan one
- 22:14Speaker 12: point eight billion dollars, that perhaps doesn't seem like enough.
- 22:18Speaker 3: Thank you, Max. How's your weather today, party.
- 22:20Speaker 12: Cloudy northerly, sixteen high central.
- 22:24Speaker 3: Brilliant, Thank you very much. Neva is an Auckland, Neva,
- 22:26Speaker 3: good morning, Good morning.
- 22:27Speaker 5: I was just thinking about that cult, you know what
- 22:29Speaker 5: Clear was talking about. Yeah, I'd be terrible in a cult.
- 22:32Speaker 3: Why you didn't want you? You would follow the No?
- 22:35Speaker 5: Yeah, I wouldn't follow the rules. No talking, Neva, no laughing?
- 22:39Speaker 1: Oh to be the.
- 22:41Speaker 3: Still not happening? Hey, what's happening with the Orcland Council
- 22:45Speaker 3: twenty fifty plan?
- 22:46Speaker 1: God?
- 22:46Speaker 3: Well, yes, the.
- 22:47Speaker 5: Twenty fifty there's an update on that one, and it's
- 22:50Speaker 5: just telling us that the council's progressing in some areas
- 22:53Speaker 5: but staying put in falling behind in others. So probably
- 22:57Speaker 5: no surprise there really. So the plan which guides count
- 23:00Speaker 5: was ten year budgets showing that positive progress towards just
- 23:04Speaker 5: thirty nine percent of the aims for this year. So
- 23:07Speaker 5: they include the public transport use, fewer greenhouse gas emissions,
- 23:10Speaker 5: fewer transport debts. But in fifty one percent of the goals,
- 23:14Speaker 5: council has either made no progress, gone backwards remaining goals
- 23:17Speaker 5: didn't even have enough data to tell. So Shane Henderson,
- 23:20Speaker 5: one of the counselors, he says, look, we've got a
- 23:22Speaker 5: lot of work to do around the measures like unemployment
- 23:25Speaker 5: in housing. So he's going to try and turn that
- 23:28Speaker 5: negative into a positive.
- 23:29Speaker 3: Oh, that's cool, townd's good. How's the weather today?
- 23:31Speaker 5: Cloudy? No rain yay, and no rain for the weekend
- 23:34Speaker 5: here on Audland. That's what the Met Service is telling me.
- 23:36Speaker 5: Eighteen is a.
- 23:37Speaker 3: High fantastic NEV Thank you so much for that. Quickly,
- 23:40Speaker 3: here is a couple of clips from last night's press conference,
- 23:42Speaker 3: because you probably wouldn't have heard it. This is the
- 23:45Speaker 3: Green Party on Darling Tana. Chloe Swarbrooks speaking about next steps.
- 23:50Speaker 13: After a thorough discussion abbose delligants who came to the
- 23:54Speaker 13: unanimous I feel conclusion to endorse that use of that
- 23:57Speaker 13: legis passion.
- 23:58Speaker 3: My caucus, and she continued, I'm the end of the mesoning.
- 24:03Speaker 13: Myself and Martima wrote to Darlene one final time and
- 24:07Speaker 13: foring her to finally do the right thing and resign,
- 24:11Speaker 13: but also informing her that we would be writing to
- 24:14Speaker 13: the Speaker to invoke the legislation.
- 24:16Speaker 3: Don't I think there might be a problem with that
- 24:18Speaker 3: audio and that it sounds ai. I don't know, maybe
- 24:21Speaker 3: maybe it's just my headphones, but it might have sounded
- 24:25Speaker 3: a little ai to you. It was the actual Chloe
- 24:27Speaker 3: s Waalbrock. I can promise you that, and we're going
- 24:29Speaker 3: to talk about the well the pilava really and what
- 24:32Speaker 3: the Speaker does next with Jason Walls.
- 24:34Speaker 1: Just before six international correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance
- 24:38Speaker 1: Peace of Mind for New Zealand business.
- 24:41Speaker 3: The Israeli Foreign Minister has just confirmed that they have
- 24:45Speaker 3: killed the so called face of evil, Yahya Sinwa. He's
- 24:49Speaker 3: the Hamas leader architect of October seven. Vincent mcavini's our
- 24:52Speaker 3: UK europe correspondent, Vincent, how did this happen?
- 24:57Speaker 14: Well, we, as you say, have just had that confirmation.
- 25:00Speaker 14: We know that Israel has been on a renewed offensive
- 25:03Speaker 14: the IDF in Gaza and as we understand it, they
- 25:07Speaker 14: got into a conflict with a group of Hammas fighters.
- 25:11Speaker 2: One of them was killed.
- 25:14Speaker 14: They believed it to be Yaya Sinwhar. We saw graphic
- 25:17Speaker 14: images online of someone that was suspected to be him
- 25:21Speaker 14: lying in rubble of a building in the aftermath of
- 25:24Speaker 14: intense military conflict with clearly fatal injuries. Now we understand
- 25:28Speaker 14: that Israel used dental records and DNA because he was
- 25:32Speaker 14: held prisoner for a number of years by Israel in jail.
- 25:35Speaker 14: He was released in twenty eleven and they've now used
- 25:38Speaker 14: DNA profiling to confirm we believe that it is him.
- 25:42Speaker 14: So this is a big victory in Israeli minds. He was,
- 25:46Speaker 14: as you say, the architect of October the seventh, which
- 25:49Speaker 14: killed over twelve hundred people. Those hostages two hundred and
- 25:53Speaker 14: fifty were abducted, some still stuck in Gaza. No hostages
- 25:57Speaker 14: were recovered in this mission. But I think in Tel
- 26:02Speaker 14: Aviv they will be celebrating what they think will be
- 26:04Speaker 14: a clear a part of their victory in Gaza against
- 26:09Speaker 14: Hamas in intro and fascinating.
- 26:11Speaker 3: As you say, it sounds almost like, you know, by accident,
- 26:14Speaker 3: not that he was particularly targeted, but that he came
- 26:17Speaker 3: into confrontation with them. Let's talk about the One Direction style.
- 26:20Speaker 3: Liam Payne has obviously died in Argentina. What's the reaction
- 26:24Speaker 3: being like in the UK.
- 26:26Speaker 14: I mean it was a real shock reaction really because
- 26:29Speaker 14: you know, One Direction were globally famous and they were
- 26:34Speaker 14: from you know, slightly humble beginnings a reality show. The
- 26:37Speaker 14: x facts are on ITV here, and he was only
- 26:40Speaker 14: thirty one years old. You know, he had been going
- 26:44Speaker 14: through struggles and he'd admitted to problems with alcohol. He
- 26:47Speaker 14: had been to rehab. But still for a lot of
- 26:51Speaker 14: young people, you know, this is a band that they
- 26:53Speaker 14: grew up with. They sold out concerts, they sold out albums,
- 26:57Speaker 14: they were constantly you know, in the media on TV
- 27:00Speaker 14: four sort of the five six years that they were together.
- 27:02Speaker 14: So there's a lot of shock and sadness about this.
- 27:04Speaker 14: He had, of course a relationship with Sheryl Cole, the
- 27:08Speaker 14: singer from Girls Allowed a few years ago and they
- 27:10Speaker 14: had a son, seven year old, Bear Pain, and there's
- 27:14Speaker 14: a lot of sadness for that little boy. And of
- 27:17Speaker 14: course Liam Payne's wider family and his bandmates and friends.
- 27:21Speaker 14: There hasn't been any statements yet from the rest of
- 27:24Speaker 14: the band, that's of course Zaye Malik, Harry Styles Nihor
- 27:29Speaker 14: and Louis Thomson. But there has been a statement now
- 27:32Speaker 14: from his family, Liam Payne's family saying they are heartbroken
- 27:37Speaker 14: and that Liam will live forever in our hearts and
- 27:39Speaker 14: will remember him for his kind, funny and brave soul
- 27:42Speaker 14: is said.
- 27:43Speaker 3: Isn't that very said? Thank you very much for an update.
- 27:45Speaker 3: Vincent Mecani, a UK and Europe correspondent. It is twelve
- 27:48Speaker 3: away from.
- 27:49Speaker 2: Six Bryan Bridge, Charline Hanner.
- 27:51Speaker 3: She looks like she's going to be given the boat
- 27:53Speaker 3: from Parliament all up to the speaker now. The Greens
- 27:55Speaker 3: have basically invoked and said, yes we want the walker
- 27:59Speaker 3: jumping to apply here. We want to have Darling Tana
- 28:03Speaker 3: Woker jumped. Jason Wolves as news talks of Be's political editor.
- 28:06Speaker 3: He's with me this morning, Jason, Good morning, Good morning, Rain,
- 28:09Speaker 3: Good to have you on the show. So they had
- 28:11Speaker 3: a press last night, right, what are they saying?
- 28:14Speaker 15: Indeed, it was about nine to thirty last night, so
- 28:16Speaker 15: it actually sounds like the meeting wrapped up a little
- 28:19Speaker 15: bit sooner than they had anticipated, because it was thought
- 28:23Speaker 15: that they'd be doing a press conference this morning at
- 28:25Speaker 15: about seven am, but that's been kibosh because Chloe Swarbrick
- 28:28Speaker 15: fronted press last night and essentially she came out and
- 28:31Speaker 15: said yes, the Greens came to a basic consensus on
- 28:34Speaker 15: this and said that the party delegates want to get
- 28:38Speaker 15: Darling Tanner out of Parliament and they've voted to use
- 28:41Speaker 15: the Walker jumping legislation to do so, which essentially is
- 28:44Speaker 15: them saying that they think that she distorts the proportionality
- 28:48Speaker 15: of parliament and they've written to the Speaker to suggest
- 28:52Speaker 15: as such. So really in the hands of Jerry Browne
- 28:55Speaker 15: now and we'll hopefully find out from him today what
- 28:58Speaker 15: the next steps are.
- 28:59Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, obviously had a while to think about it.
- 29:01Speaker 3: Interesting the vote though it was all of the one
- 29:03Speaker 3: hundred and eighty five delegates voters to do this, and
- 29:05Speaker 3: apparently the likes of Materiia today coming back to be
- 29:09Speaker 3: quite influential in the vote.
- 29:12Speaker 15: The return of Materia today is it's massive. She has
- 29:16Speaker 15: been basically absent from the political landscape since she quit
- 29:20Speaker 15: politics many many years ago. Of course, she did that
- 29:23Speaker 15: in quite a dramatic fashion before the twenty seventeen election,
- 29:27Speaker 15: and she hasn't really been seen in public in terms
- 29:30Speaker 15: of any sort of political part to play since then.
- 29:34Speaker 15: So her coming back is such a shocked surprise move.
- 29:37Speaker 15: Even Chloe Swarwick said that she had no idea that
- 29:40Speaker 15: she would be making this contribution to the Call last night,
- 29:45Speaker 15: and it really just goes to show how deep seated
- 29:48Speaker 15: this issue is within the Green Party.
- 29:50Speaker 3: I mean, Ryan, you'll.
- 29:51Speaker 15: Remember that it was the Greens that were the most
- 29:53Speaker 15: strident critics of the walker jumping legislation.
- 29:57Speaker 3: Right here we are, but Jason, here we are thing
- 30:00Speaker 3: about Matidia two days. There is a woman who was scorned,
- 30:04Speaker 3: who left the party because she admitted to the benefit
- 30:07Speaker 3: stuff years and years ago. Maybe she's coming back saying, look,
- 30:10Speaker 3: if you stuff up, if I had to leave, you know,
- 30:14Speaker 3: then perhaps you need to as well.
- 30:17Speaker 15: There could well be an element of that, and I'm
- 30:19Speaker 15: sure as the days go on, we'll get more details
- 30:22Speaker 15: of what it was than Matidia today actually said. But listen,
- 30:25Speaker 15: it was enough to get a party such as the Greens,
- 30:28Speaker 15: which is so democratized sometimes to a fault, to all
- 30:33Speaker 15: come together on one issue like this. And as I said,
- 30:35Speaker 15: given it was the Greens that were the ones against
- 30:38Speaker 15: the walker jumping legislation even being in place, for all
- 30:42Speaker 15: as many delegates to come together and agree as they
- 30:45Speaker 15: have been, I think it's actually remarkable that this has happened,
- 30:48Speaker 15: and it's really draws a bit of a line under
- 30:51Speaker 15: this whole situation.
- 30:52Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a complete sort of moral one eighty in
- 30:55Speaker 3: some ways, isn't it. Jason, thank you very much for that.
- 30:57Speaker 3: Great to have you on the show. Jason Will's News
- 30:59Speaker 3: Talk zaid be political Editor. The ball is now in
- 31:02Speaker 3: Jerry's court. It's eight to six on.
- 31:05Speaker 1: Your radio and online on iHeartRadio early edition with Ryan
- 31:10Speaker 1: Bridge and Smith City New Zealand's Furniture Beds and a
- 31:13Speaker 1: Playing Store, Youth Talks.
- 31:15Speaker 3: He'd be six away from six News Talks. It'd be
- 31:17Speaker 3: great to have you on the show. Judith Collins was
- 31:19Speaker 3: on earlier from Brussels. We'll put that on the podcast.
- 31:22Speaker 3: A little later on. Right now, this is Donald Trump
- 31:24Speaker 3: talking to a group, a room full of women.
- 31:27Speaker 6: I got a call from Katie Britt, a young just
- 31:30Speaker 6: a fantastically attractive person from Alabama.
- 31:34Speaker 16: She's a senator.
- 31:36Speaker 3: He doesn't need to say that, does he. But I'm mean,
- 31:38Speaker 3: I don't know. It's just gone now six, so it's
- 31:41Speaker 3: still six minutes away from six mikes here next, Hey.
- 31:43Speaker 16: Mike Somoir. They've got him, Yes, so he's he's been
- 31:47Speaker 16: in the job for what three days, week and a half.
- 31:50Speaker 3: Since August, don't two weeks? Yeah, so, which is a
- 31:54Speaker 3: huge deal. And they, by the sounds of it, they
- 31:56Speaker 3: didn't target him. There was no special operation. They just
- 31:58Speaker 3: bumped into these three guys on the street, shot them
- 32:01Speaker 3: and then thought one of them looks like, haven't I
- 32:05Speaker 3: seen you before? I knew the architect of October seven?
- 32:08Speaker 3: And then there are so I wonder.
- 32:09Speaker 16: Run clothes on the program. I wonder, you know when
- 32:12Speaker 16: you talk to her. I know, I don't want to
- 32:14Speaker 16: extend the interview out, but when you look at what
- 32:17Speaker 16: they did last night didn't last as long as they
- 32:19Speaker 16: thought it would. They've written off to git. Why didn't
- 32:21Speaker 16: they do it on day one? You know what I mean,
- 32:23Speaker 16: you look too well?
- 32:25Speaker 10: Is it?
- 32:26Speaker 16: Or is it lack of management skills in a crisis?
- 32:30Speaker 3: Really, the interesting thing I think is Mateia Tude coming
- 32:33Speaker 3: back and voting, because it was it was unanimous. One
- 32:36Speaker 3: hundred and eighty five of them voted to get rid
- 32:37Speaker 3: of Darling Tannet And that's the first time we've seen
- 32:40Speaker 3: her come out of the you know, the mist from
- 32:43Speaker 3: political oblivion. Is it because she got the boot doing
- 32:45Speaker 3: something wrong with she? She quit? Darlene must do the same.
- 32:49Speaker 3: I would have thought so.
- 32:50Speaker 16: But the interesting thing about that also is whether anybody
- 32:52Speaker 16: in that meeting said, look, we've got a lot of
- 32:54Speaker 16: people that we keep selecting that don't turn out to
- 32:56Speaker 16: be much chop does Has anyone had to look at
- 32:59Speaker 16: the sky? You know what I mean? It's it's got
- 33:01Speaker 16: that we speak to hr. Yeah, we're not really good
- 33:03Speaker 16: at this. Has anyone noticed any of this? It's just
- 33:06Speaker 16: it just worries me that one day these people will
- 33:08Speaker 16: be in a position of some power and responsibility, and
- 33:11Speaker 16: if they bring the same acumen to serious issues as
- 33:15Speaker 16: they've brought to this, nothing literally will ever get done
- 33:17Speaker 16: in this country.
- 33:18Speaker 3: If you think about it, Hey, what's happening this week,
- 33:20Speaker 3: and you've got some tai chi on what's happening.
- 33:23Speaker 16: Well, yes, I got my ice bath, of course I do.
- 33:26Speaker 16: Don't don't ridicule the ice bath, but.
- 33:28Speaker 3: I mean every day.
- 33:30Speaker 16: There was nothing wrong with that, because if you're gonna
- 33:32Speaker 16: do the sauna, you gotta do the ice bath, don't you.
- 33:33Speaker 16: I mean it's hot and cold.
- 33:34Speaker 3: How many hours are you doing this in a day?
- 33:36Speaker 16: But well this is fifteen minutes, last bath, two or
- 33:39Speaker 16: three bombs, simple as that. It's like and look at
- 33:41Speaker 16: and look at me, look at me, look at me.
- 33:43Speaker 3: I look at you, you old cripple. You can, you can? Really?
- 33:47Speaker 3: So I have a bad bag. Well there's a sauna
- 33:49Speaker 3: going to Texai.
- 33:50Speaker 16: Give it a go, Give it a go, and let
- 33:53Speaker 16: me know. Anyway, I'll tell you what's big this weekend.
- 33:55Speaker 16: You've got to get into Liam Lawson of course, launches
- 33:57Speaker 16: in Austin.
- 33:58Speaker 3: I won't, but I'll hear from you on Monday. Have
