• 1:50
  Speaker 5: We all have waste challenges. We can face them in

• 1:58
  Speaker 5: sure you have the strengthen the was to raise above them.
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: The one thing you don't have to worry about these tickets.
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: He's going to get dismiss.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: The first word on the news of the day early
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: edition with Ryan Bridge and one route love where you live.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: News talks that'd be he did seem like a lovely man.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Eight after five, Paul says, why does Luxon need two jumbos?
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: These are the planes that the Air Force is getting, well,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: not just for lux and are they Yes, they can
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: carry passengers, but you also get cargo in underneath the
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: main thing. Well, I mean there are lots of reasons
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: why they're getting them, but the range on them is good.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: You can get down to Antarctica and back if the
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: conditions are too bad to land. Because when you go
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: to Antarctic there's a point of no return. And I
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: had the pleasure of going down there as a reporter,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: the displeasure of sharing a room with Barry Soper, who
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: did nothing but snare. But going down there there's a
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: point of no return, and it's kind of scary because
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: you go, well, what if the weather changes after the point.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: It suddenly changes, as it's prone to do in Antarctica.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: After the point and no return, you got no choice
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: but to land, So then it'd be really heary. But
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: you get loads of flights that go to go halfway there,
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: turn around, halfway there, turnaround so this would about. This
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: means you're able to go there where there's crap, turn
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: around and come back. I think it was about eight
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: hours to get down there. You're on news talks, they'd
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: be this morning. The Greens, they talk more than any
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: other party in Parliament about trolls and abuse and safety
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: concerns for MPs, all that stuff. So here along comes
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: and across the Aisle Bill to better protect MP's in
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: their homes and people in their homes. It would basically
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: ban protesting outside a person's residence i e. A place
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: where someone is sleeping and their family might be sleeping.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: And you might think this is a good idea. You
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: might think the Greens would get on board all for it,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: all over it. No, all the misogyny that they get,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: all the vile abuse they say they receive on a
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: daily basis. They say it's so bad that women aren't
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: standing for office, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Yesterday
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: they came out so they won't support it. Why because
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: what they love more than safety is winging and waving placards.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: That's in their DNA. They're basically worried they won't be
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: able to shout and scream and wave banners outside Premier
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: House in Thornton where the Prime Minister sleeps. Sometimes there's
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: a speaker's flat in Parliament. And this is the interesting part.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: And they're worried that people won't be able to protest
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: outside param wh It's just ridiculous. Of course they will.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: They won't happen, and it would be sorted out in
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: a Select committee anyway. So the fact that they've come
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: out this early in the piece and said not supporting
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: this bill, we don't like it tells you what their
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: real passion is, wandering the streets shouting, live streaming to
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: TikTok and amassing a bunch of followers. After five news talks,
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: there'd be we'll talk first home Buyers next.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines on an early edition with
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and one roof love where you Live. News
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: talks d be five.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Point thirteen on news Talks. There'd be some good news
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: for farmers out yesterday from fonn Terror. They're increasing their
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: price in their range, so they give you a price
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: which is basically the midpoint of their range. So the
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: price increasing. Forecast farm gate milk price increasing from ten
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: bucks per kilogram milk solace to ten fifteen so nextra
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: fifteen cents. The range narrowed from nine dollars seventy to
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: ten dollars thirty per milligrams to ten ten to ten twenty.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: So this is good news farmers. More good news farmers.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Prices are good, the sales book is looking good and healthy.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Exchange rate uncertainty. The final number they will confirm when
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: they do their results that is coming September. Bran Bread
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: five fifteen. So first home buy is accounted for twenty
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: seven percent of the market in July. This is way
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: above their long term average of twenty one to twenty
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: two percent. And your movers, these are your owner occupiers
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: selling and rebuying pretty consistent, same levels we've seen we
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: saw during the global financial crisis. So this is new
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: data out this morning from Cotality. And David Cunningham is
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Chief Squirrel at Squirrel Mortgages. David, good morning, Right, so
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: they're getting on the ladder. What are they buying?
• 6:08
  Speaker 7: Well, houses?
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: What are we? Units? Are we? Are we? You know?
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: Small ones?
• 6:14
  Speaker 8: No?
• 6:14
  Speaker 7: Well, the thing about the first time buyer market at
• 6:17
  Speaker 7: the moment is it's really a goldilocks market. They've got
• 6:19
  Speaker 7: so much choice because there's a lot of stuff on
• 6:21
  Speaker 7: the market. Fircely there's no urgency because houses aren't selling
• 6:27
  Speaker 7: as fast as they were. You know, go bout three years,
• 6:30
  Speaker 7: you know, post COVID, if you didn't make an offer,
• 6:33
  Speaker 7: you know, when you saw the house, it was gone.
• 6:35
  Speaker 7: So you've got time, you've got choice. So on, interest
• 6:38
  Speaker 7: rates have come down, keep davior balances are higher, and
• 6:43
  Speaker 7: you've got this competition from both investors and movers too,
• 6:48
  Speaker 7: so you know, Goldilocks sign. It's bit like the farmers actually, and.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: You want to get in there quick, done you before
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: prices start going back up again. There's the rest I've.
• 6:57
  Speaker 7: Heard the down Yeah yeah, yeah, Look, coming back back
• 7:01
  Speaker 7: to your earlier question, what are they buying? Well, they've
• 7:03
  Speaker 7: got choice, so you know they are buying. You know,
• 7:05
  Speaker 7: it's typical. When I bought my first house, it was
• 7:07
  Speaker 7: a bit of a do up and and you know
• 7:10
  Speaker 7: the beauty is that there's time, time to time storad
• 7:13
  Speaker 7: of do it. But sorry, what was the question again?
• 7:16
  Speaker 7: Early in the morning, Let's.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Say I want to ask you about the o CR yesterday.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: Do you think that that, I mean, what are you
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: expecting to see in terms of deals from banks in
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: the next couple of months.
• 7:31
  Speaker 7: Yeah, look, we'll see interest rates drift down abit. That's
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: what sort of happens. You know, your floating rate moves
• 7:38
  Speaker 7: worth the o CR literally on the day or even
• 7:40
  Speaker 7: beforehand or immediately after. But your fixed rates is where
• 7:44
  Speaker 7: everyone goes in New Zealand. You know, almost everyone's on
• 7:46
  Speaker 7: a fixed rate, and they're much lower than floating rates.
• 7:48
  Speaker 7: So there was anything surprised. The market a worth about
• 7:54
  Speaker 7: at least another core of percent of four coast drops
• 7:57
  Speaker 7: in the o CR than what was there before. So
• 7:59
  Speaker 7: wholesale rates fall by about that. Therefore retail rates will
• 8:02
  Speaker 7: fall fall by about that. So I think we'll get
• 8:04
  Speaker 7: to about four and a half percent, likely on the
• 8:07
  Speaker 7: one year, maybe even the two year, over the next
• 8:09
  Speaker 7: over the months head, assuming things played as they are.
• 8:12
  Speaker 7: It's you know, this challenge that the New Zealand economy
• 8:15
  Speaker 7: is a sort of pulse of activity and it's sort
• 8:17
  Speaker 7: of coming from the Egrey sector just needs to sort
• 8:20
  Speaker 7: of get us out of this gloomy mood.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Heh oh, something's got it, David. He appreciate your time
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: this morning. Thanks for being on the show, David Cunning
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: And as Chief Squirrel at Squirrel Mortgages. It is sixteen
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: after five on News Talks theb We'll get to your
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: texts next, and also Sam Ackerman on the Abs.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: On your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early Edition with
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and One roof Love where you Live, News Talks.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: The'd be news Talks. There'd be somebody here, says Ryan.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Why does the speaker have a room on site to
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: sleep at Parliament? Is that so Jerry can have a
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: snooze after having a pie and a coke at lunchtime?
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: They do have a who's in there? And I went,
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: I've been in there a couple of times actually, and
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: one time there was a speaker who was the Minister
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: of Wine and Cheese. Jonathan Hunt went on a tour
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: of the speaker's fate with Jonathan Hunt and he said
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: it was very weird. But he pointed out, oh look
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: there's the young bathroom. The queen has taken a number two.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: There should she be talking about you're her representative in
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: New Zealand and you're talking about her doing her business.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: I thought it was all very odd. Anyway, Yeah, it's
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: got I think two or three bedrooms. You can host
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: dignitaries there. There's sort of a formal dining room, so
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: it suits a purpose. But yeah, you can sleep there.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: Adrian Uafi when he was in there, had a whole
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: bunch of Washington in one of the rooms. Didn't want
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: to let us in there. But you can sleep there
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: because if the house is running, not that the speakers
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: the one that sits in the speaker's seat all the time,
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: but I suppose there's some logic that if they need
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: to be called up and there's an urgent debate something
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: like that, they can be there on site. Just gone
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: twenty after five, gray Bridge. Rainy week and Buenos Aires
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: hasn't damped the spirits of the AB's ahead of Sunday's
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: tests against the Pumas. Raises going with one or two
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: more rookies for the rematch with the Pumas well. Is
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: he will find out seven thirty our time this morning.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: Sam Ackerman as a sports commentator with me this morning,
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Kay samyday, Ryan, good to have you on. What do
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: you reckons He's going to do this morning? Listen.
• 10:20
  Speaker 6: One thing that Razer has printed on us, as we
• 10:24
  Speaker 6: can expect they expected, is very rare to come and
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: make some wild changes or throw a whole bunch of
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: rookies into this scenario. This Rugby Championship really all roads lead.
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: In the next game after this one against the spring Rocks,
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: that is the biggest game of the season. Don't expect
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: them to tinker too much with that side that ran
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: out in the first Test. So there will be a
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: few force changes through injury absence to the bench, but
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: outside of that it should be relatively consistently. Imagine Ryan
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: in their first starting fifteen.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: What about Wallace the Tit and Tomato Williams back from injury.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Will we see them in the fifteen or will they
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: be bent?
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: I feel there's probably more likelihood that Williams will come
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: off the bench, but he's certainly capable of going straight
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: into that front row position. He played through injury in
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: the Super Rugby Final, so he has a high paying
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: threshold and he has been champion at the bit to
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: get back. I'd love to see him start, but my
• 11:17
  Speaker 6: I just feel like safety wise is most likely to
• 11:20
  Speaker 6: come off the bench, and it's for Titi. It's a
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: very settled starting loose Ford trio they have at the
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: moment who are playing well and I think Carrefi has
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: done well in that position, but I think so Titi,
• 11:31
  Speaker 6: You're right, is the most likely to come in to
• 11:33
  Speaker 6: that starting side. He is definitely part of the preferred
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: starting Loise Ford's in the eyes of many, and you'd
• 11:39
  Speaker 6: think you want to get some decent minutes under his
• 11:41
  Speaker 6: belt before he takes on the box in a few
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: weeks time.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: Say in the first fifteen minutes of the second half
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: last weekend Bit week, it was he looking to firm
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: that up. I mean, how do you focus on that?
• 11:53
  Speaker 6: I definitely think they want to show that they can
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: put on a bit more fire and that they can
• 11:57
  Speaker 6: hold their consistency throughout the game, because this Argentine's side
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: can never be packing lightly. They have been in New
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: Zealand on New Zealand soil, not on Argentine soil. It's
• 12:07
  Speaker 6: I'm sure has driving them to a certain extent as well,
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: but they need to shore it up. They need to
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: make sure they have a consistency with their attack as well.
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: I think some smarter options when they get it, have
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: an opportunity to get out wide. It's fair to say
• 12:21
  Speaker 6: some of the outside backs didn't get a whole lot
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: of opportunities in that test match will be interested to
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: see if they're going to play to the same game
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: plan to try to nail it or very things up.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Along the way. They seem largely back on track. How
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: long till we get that real shock and war that
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: you expect from a Robertson team.
• 12:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it feels like we've been waiting for that for
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: quite a while. Ryan. The concept of this all that
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: side kicking into gear and ruthlessly dismantling side that we've
• 12:47
  Speaker 6: seen in the past that we used to be all
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: excited about the last twenty minutes where they could put
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: any team away, Well, it certainly hasn't always been the
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: case in recent years there, so I would love this
• 12:57
  Speaker 6: to be a comprehensive performance. Most of all, they need
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: to walk away from this game with real confidence that.
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: I don't want to keep looking ahead to the next game,
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: because you do have to get past so you've got
• 13:06
  Speaker 6: in front of you. But that Eden Park Test, the
• 13:09
  Speaker 6: record that's been held there for so long. They do
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: not want to be the team that loses the Eden
• 13:14
  Speaker 6: Park record. So every step they take here in the
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: back of their mind and certainly the fans mind, will
• 13:20
  Speaker 6: be the Eden Park Test.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, looking forward to that one. Sam. Thank you, Sam Ackerman,
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: sports commentator on the show this morning. The team name
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: in this morning at seven thirty twenty three after five
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: Ray Bread So Labor. You might have seen this in
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: the news yesterday. Labor Party is actually ruling something out
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: for a start, which is news that's a headline because
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: they've not ruled anything in or anything out. And I
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: see that. Matthew Houton has a good column out in
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: the Herald this morning, as he usually does, pointing out
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: that their best chance to getting back into the Treasury
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: benches is to just do nothing, say nothing, and hope
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: that Reserve banks optimistic expectations for the economy turn out
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: to be wrong. Anyway, Lay yesterday, get yourself into a
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: bit of a pickle because clearly so that they've ruled
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: something out, but clearly they're not all an agreeance on it.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: Penny Hennade goes to a candidate's meeting, This is for
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: the Tammacki Makoto by election and ordering any competer from PARTI.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Marti's there and someone asked the question, are you going
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: to reverse the ban on gang patches?
• 14:18
  Speaker 6: Will you repeal the gang patch law?
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: If you was come into government, yes or no.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Yes, I.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Means yes for those who are uncertain. So there you go.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: Penny Henade wants to reverse the ban on gang patches,
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: and then a couple of minutes later Cipiloni comes out
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: and smacks it down. No, no, we have no intention
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: to repeal that legislation.
• 14:41
  Speaker 8: We did oppose the bill in the House, and so
• 14:44
  Speaker 8: I'm wondering whether that led them to that conclusion.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: So that begs the question was it a good idea? Clearly?
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: I mean the police think it was a good idea.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: They say they're making arrest, they're making headway. Labor obviously
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: now thinks it's a good idea too, So are they
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: going to go and Congress to late the government? Twenty
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: five minutes after five, you're on News Talks MB.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: The early edition Full the Show podcast on Iron Art
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Radio powered by NEWSTALKSB.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: Five twenty seven News Talk ZBB. We'll talk air Force
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: planes and trappers before six. But this morning I have
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: had it with car parks so small you couldn't fit
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: a shopping trolley in them. What exactly do they think
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: We're driving go carts? No, people are buying big cars, utes,
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: station wagons, SUVs. They are all hanging over the white
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: lines on the side, or they're punching out the back
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: onto the road behind them. The Spinoff wrote about this
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: problem last week the Civic and Auckland is one of
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: the worst offenders, and yesterday, driving along, I saw a
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: pregnant woman trying to squeeze herself, a handbag and an
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: unborn baby out of a sedan and a building car park.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: She was literally using the handbag as a shield to
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: protect her belly from the car door. Are we trying
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: to send these people into early labor? Apparently, new cars
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: are getting a centimeter wider every two years. People like
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: bigger cars, they feel safer, and we're also getting way
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: more obese. We're getting fatter, so we literally can't fit
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: into a Honda Civic anymore. The side impact protection on
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: new cars is apparently taking up lots of the extra space.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: Are councils and Wilson's doing anything about this? No, they're not.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Are we expected to just bend, fold and stretch our
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: way into our cars like Ninja's? Are they going to
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: pay for the physio appointments? Should we take yoga classes?
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: A Colchester council listen in the UK. They've apparently spent
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: a million pounds repainting white lines to make their car
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: parks bigger. Good on them. The panel beaters must love it.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: We need fewer parks and more room. So let's start
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: a movement New Zealand. Let's stop this madness together. We
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: can help that pregnant woman. We can save our bad backs.
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: I've got one our dicky knees the elderly. For goodness sakes,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: give me common sense and a bigger car park. Ryan
• 17:03

  Speaker 2: was born five years before the start of the First
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: World War. What's her secret? Well, she's not saying why

  Speaker 2: You know, you have a week of diplomacy and then boom,
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: biggest strikes from them in a week. It's sorry, in
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: weeks and you start to ask yourself, is this like
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: positioning for a deal? Are they going all at it
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: helpful either positioning for a deal or are they just
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: doing whatever the hell they want. Lavrov are overnight shutting
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: down this idea of you that you would need and
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: get European troops in Ukraine post some sort of settlement
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: as a backstop. He's calling this foreign intervention and you
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: just I mean, of course there have to be some
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: European troops in there, otherwise the Russians will just go
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: in and do what they've done time and time again,
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: which has crossed the border with their tanks, and do
• 18:58

  Speaker 2: and let's go to our reporters around the country. We

  Speaker 2: start this morning and Needin, who we gotten too? Needin?
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: This morning? Callum is there? Calum? Good morning? What's happening?
• 19:23
  Speaker 6: Is it?
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: Needing? Mate? Yep? Callums here morning? Right, We're good look
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: qe wee.
• 19:27
  Speaker 9: Kids, it's been discovered by more research out of a
• 19:30
  Speaker 9: Tiger university are exposed to nearly two hundred and fifty
• 19:34
  Speaker 9: percent more unhealthy marketing messages than healthy ones. This study
• 19:39
  Speaker 9: tracked twelve year olds. They were wearing cameras to capture
• 19:43
  Speaker 9: what was essentially an unfiltered view of the advertising that
• 19:46
  Speaker 9: children see in any given day. And what it's revealed
• 19:49
  Speaker 9: is that our youth are exposed to unhealthy food, alcohol,
• 19:53
  Speaker 9: and gambling marketing seventy six times a day. The researchers
• 19:58
  Speaker 9: say a lot of that marketing is around childre's environments
• 20:00
  Speaker 9: as well, like schools, where they should be free of
• 20:03
  Speaker 9: that messaging. And they say that children in the most
• 20:05
  Speaker 9: deprived areas of New Zealand are seeing the bulk of
• 20:08
  Speaker 9: those messages. Okay, how's your weather morning, cloud and frost's
• 20:12
  Speaker 9: clear to find for our Friday. Westerly is easing the
• 20:14
  Speaker 9: high thirteen today.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: Have a good one. Claire's and christ Church Morning, clear morning.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Now is the council bullying the.
• 20:20
  Speaker 10: Homeless, Well, that's certainly the claim. Here in christ Church, Ryan,
• 20:24
  Speaker 10: We've got at least ten people who have been living
• 20:26
  Speaker 10: in the car park of a church at Avonside, Holy
• 20:29
  Speaker 10: Trinity Church. Some of them have been there for up
• 20:32
  Speaker 10: to a year. There are tents, there are campers, you know,
• 20:35
  Speaker 10: various different setups in their. Council though, has issued an
• 20:37
  Speaker 10: abatement notice to stop them using that car park as
• 20:40
  Speaker 10: a campground by five o'clock this afternoon. Now, Council's firm
• 20:44
  Speaker 10: that an extension is possible, but only if a new
• 20:47
  Speaker 10: resource consent which would allow camping is obtained. That's looking unlikely.
• 20:51
  Speaker 10: That need things like kitchen facilities and bathrooms and things
• 20:54
  Speaker 10: provided on site. I stopped in there yesterday afternoon. Community
• 20:57
  Speaker 10: worker River Rain says, look and everyone associated with the
• 21:01
  Speaker 10: church are happy with the community being there. They are
• 21:04
  Speaker 10: working with some good people at council to work through
• 21:06
  Speaker 10: the issues. But the homeless community who were there and
• 21:09
  Speaker 10: one of them, I spoke with Christina Katatiane she's been
• 21:11
  Speaker 10: living there for a few weeks now. She says, look,
• 21:14
  Speaker 10: we're doing no harm. We've got nowhere else to go.
• 21:17
  Speaker 10: She wants counsel to leave them alone and to perhaps
• 21:20
  Speaker 10: even go down there and spend some time there to
• 21:22
  Speaker 10: understand the situation there in and exactly how they're feeling.
• 21:25
  Speaker 10: She is who has claimed that they are bullies.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: How's your weather clear?
• 21:30
  Speaker 10: Frosty? There is the chance of some more showers today
• 21:32
  Speaker 10: then clearing too fine about mid day a high of twelve.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: All right, you enjoy that New Zealand's biggest beer festival
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: begins in Wellington this morning. And were crossing live to
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: Ambassador Max tole Max, good morning, Good morning.
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: How did you know?
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: Well, I just I took a look at you and
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: I took a guest.
• 21:49
  Speaker 11: Well, it was a good guess, because I'm not ashamed
• 21:52
  Speaker 11: to say I go to beer Vana every year, and
• 21:54
  Speaker 11: I will be going this evening. It does seem though
• 21:56
  Speaker 11: year on yere it is slightly trending in the wrong direction,
• 21:59
  Speaker 11: not surprising in this current economic climate. About twelve thousand
• 22:03
  Speaker 11: people are expected to attend the four sessions, two sessions
• 22:06
  Speaker 11: a day, that's today and tomorrow. A similar number of
• 22:09
  Speaker 11: breweries are going to be there sixty five to seventy ish,
• 22:12
  Speaker 11: but a couple of years ago you were getting a
• 22:13
  Speaker 11: few thousand more through the door. A few of the
• 22:16
  Speaker 11: bigger New Zealand breweries as well tend to skip BERV
• 22:19
  Speaker 11: a year on year due to cost travel, cost staffing.
• 22:22
  Speaker 11: Perhaps they don't feel they need to be there. It's
• 22:25
  Speaker 11: essential to be showing their faces, you know. But hey,
• 22:28
  Speaker 11: I still love it. I'll be trying some sort of
• 22:30
  Speaker 11: for Joe and milkshake, ipa sour or something. I'm sure tonight, yeah,
• 22:34
  Speaker 11: today and tomorrow at sky Stadium.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: It's never appere There's the thing, it's at the stadium.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: The location has always put me off because the thought
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: of you're standing up for hours and then basically just
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: walking around a concrete conquest, you know.
• 22:45
  Speaker 11: Yeah, so it is more for purists than you would say,
• 22:48
  Speaker 11: you know, beers at the basin, which is you get
• 22:50
  Speaker 11: your casuals in there who want to soak up the
• 22:52
  Speaker 11: sun and listen to a bit of music. This is
• 22:54
  Speaker 11: the Beer Purist Festival. How's your weather?
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Partly cloudy?
• 22:58
  Speaker 11: Southerly's eleven the high Central.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: Enjoyed today, Max, Thank you Neivas here in Auckland. Hey, Neva, Hello,
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: Max seems.
• 23:03
  Speaker 8: Too refined for to be a beer drinker, you know.
• 23:06
  Speaker 8: Yeah to me, Well, you know, I just listened to
• 23:09
  Speaker 8: that lovely voice, and I think he's refined and cultured.
• 23:12
  Speaker 8: I expect him to be a red wine drinker class
• 23:15
  Speaker 8: or something, you know, like a fifty dollars bottle of pinos.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: No, I've seen him in action. He is an absolute.
• 23:22
  Speaker 12: Okay, thank you.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: Auckland councilor is giving very different views on new density rules.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 23:28
  Speaker 8: So now I think I've mentioned this earlier this week,
• 23:30
  Speaker 8: that the rules. But the new thing is is that
• 23:33
  Speaker 8: it's going out for consultation now because they had that meeting.
• 23:35
  Speaker 8: So it's going to see ten to fifteen story developments
• 23:38
  Speaker 8: near transport hubs in town centers, fewer developments in the
• 23:42
  Speaker 8: natural hazard areas. So Counselor Shane Henderson says that look,
• 23:45
  Speaker 8: more housing is a vital part of having a world
• 23:47
  Speaker 8: class city. He says, Look, we could lose far too
• 23:50
  Speaker 8: many people to Australia because people just can't set down
• 23:53
  Speaker 8: roots here. And now Mike Lee's come into it. He says, Look,
• 23:56
  Speaker 8: Counselors has sold out Auckland is to a peace central government,
• 23:59
  Speaker 8: not howe for democracy. These are his words for the
• 24:01
  Speaker 8: Council to go along and with everything that the government sets.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: So more aargie bargie from the council. Friday weather we look.
• 24:09
  Speaker 8: And good right mainly fine, yay yay yay, morning frost,
• 24:12
  Speaker 8: chilted places, a bit of afternoon cloud, no rain. No.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: Fourteen is the high brilliant you've enjoyed Neva. It is
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: eighteen minutes away from six. This is a text from
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: Lee Lisa's Ryan, thank you so much for bringing up
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: this issue about the car parks, because it's just having
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: a big winge before about how they're too narrow. Well, well,
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: the car parks haven't changed sides, but the cars are
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: getting bigger. They're growing one centimeter wider every two years
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: because of all the safety crap that they put on them.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: These I suppose they keep you alive and not crap. Anyway,
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: Thank you so much for bringing this up. Ryan. I
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: had just a regular sized car, and when I went
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: to leave them all yesterday, I had a massive van
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: type car thing on either side of me. I had
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: to go and find a security guard to watch while
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: I tried to back out of my space. I contacted
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: them all after and spoke to someone and asked that
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: they could possibly have a whole flour for smaller cars.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: I certainly won't be going back to that all again.
• 25:00
  Speaker 8: Lee.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: We can't have a whole floor for small cars. Cars
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: are getting cars are getting bigger and bigger. Maybe they
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: could have a section like you know how they have
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: the section for people with a disability, and then you've
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: got your babies, your mums with babies. Maybe you have
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: a small car section too and the rest should be
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: absolutely enormous. It is seventeen to six News Talk sa'd
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: be Vincent mcavinie out of the UK.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: Next International correspondence with Ens and Eye Insurance Peace of
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: mind for New Zealand business.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: Fourteen minutes away from six, we'll get to the Air
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: Force choppers and planes in a second Gaza city though
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: the Palestinians are moving out as the IDF prepares to
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: move in. Vincent mcavini's our UK Europe correspondent, Vincent, what
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: about the hostages? This is the big worry from those
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: in Israel, right Yeah.
• 25:48
  Speaker 12: I've been speaking to hostage families today and they're extremely
• 25:51
  Speaker 12: concerned because Gaza City has been though it's had strikes
• 25:55
  Speaker 12: from the air, hasn't had sort of a ground incursion
• 25:57
  Speaker 12: during this whole war. So they're worried. With the IDF
• 26:00
  Speaker 12: now gearing up to go in in large numbers. They've
• 26:03
  Speaker 12: caught up sixty thousand. Reserve that this will mean that
• 26:07
  Speaker 12: the hostages are executed or they'll be caught up in
• 26:10
  Speaker 12: the firing as those forces try to get down into
• 26:13
  Speaker 12: the tunnel network where it's believed the last of Hamas
• 26:15
  Speaker 12: really remains Russia.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: They're going at it healthily that this is the biggest
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: campaign in several weeks, to spite all the talk over
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: the last wee while.
• 26:25
  Speaker 7: Yeah, that's right.
• 26:26
  Speaker 12: To five hundred and seventy four drones launched overnight forty
• 26:29
  Speaker 12: missiles on Ukraine, at least one person killed and several
• 26:32
  Speaker 12: dozen have been injured. It goes to show that really
• 26:36
  Speaker 12: you can't take Vladimir Putin at his word. Only a
• 26:39
  Speaker 12: week ago he was heading to Alaska for that meeting
• 26:42
  Speaker 12: with Trump. Then we have another meeting at the White
• 26:44
  Speaker 12: House with Europeans and Atlantic on Monday. Now it seems
• 26:47
  Speaker 12: that this is all a stall for time because you've
• 26:49
  Speaker 12: got Lavrov who is their foreign secretary coming out and
• 26:52
  Speaker 12: saying any support in future that is given to Ukraine
• 26:56
  Speaker 12: needs to have a sign off from Russia. They are
• 26:58
  Speaker 12: trying it seems to agitate things. Seeing the idea of
• 27:01
  Speaker 12: having a meeting, a triactual meeting between Zelansky, Putin and
• 27:04
  Speaker 12: Trump is not something that needs to come about imminently.
• 27:07
  Speaker 12: So just concern that really what Plutin is trying to
• 27:09
  Speaker 12: do is grind down Ukraine even further.
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: Appreciate your time, Vincent, Thank you. Vincent Macavini are UK
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: europe correspondent. Twelve away from six Great Dublin's gone shopping
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: for some new planes and choppers two point seven billion dollars.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: It'll set us back. Our old seven five seven is
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: going to be replaced by two new Airbus planes A
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: three twenty one's and we're buying five new Seahawk helicopters
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: equipped with anti submarine torpedo systems with Judith Collins loves
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: to talk about Joshua Needa is a retired lieutenant colonel
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: and security expert with me this morning, Good morning, Good morning, Ryan.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: What the choppers, the Seahawk helicopters, what exactly do we
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: use them for? Will we use them for.
• 27:49
  Speaker 13: Well, they will be part of the capability initially for
• 27:52
  Speaker 13: the frigates we have and I guess the next platform
• 27:55
  Speaker 13: that the Defense forced BIS. But essentially they are a
• 27:58
  Speaker 13: submarine hunting aircraft. But they also can do a number
• 28:03
  Speaker 13: of other tasks and I think in the Pacific most
• 28:06
  Speaker 13: of the use for our aircraft in the Pacific search
• 28:09
  Speaker 13: and rescue and also humanitarian assistance, disaster relief. But essentially
• 28:14
  Speaker 13: they are a military combat aircraft.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: And so they go hunt submarines and then they can
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: fire at them too.
• 28:21
  Speaker 13: Oh yes, well, I mean that's part of the forces
• 28:24
  Speaker 13: remit is actually having offensive and defensive capabilities.
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: So yes, so the submarines know where they are and
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: can they fire at them.
• 28:34
  Speaker 13: That's probably a question for sub mariners, but I mean
• 28:38
  Speaker 13: it is a cat and mouse game. I mean, you've
• 28:40
  Speaker 13: got aircraft, they are above the water. They do have
• 28:43
  Speaker 13: a number of sonar capabilities which they can dip into
• 28:46
  Speaker 13: the water. Of course, most submarines would rather remain stealthy
• 28:50
  Speaker 13: and not be found.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: A lot of people yesterday were asking why aren't we
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: buying drones that humanitarian aspect of it, you know, the
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: fact that we need to accommodate for that as well.
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: Would that be a reason why?
• 29:03
  Speaker 13: Well, if we look at the Defense Capability Plan that
• 29:06
  Speaker 13: is yet to come, there are drones which are assigned
• 29:09
  Speaker 13: for the Air Force in the coming iteration of the
• 29:12
  Speaker 13: Defense Capability Plan. What I would hope to see though,
• 29:16
  Speaker 13: is that aircraft these days are starting to be teamed,
• 29:19
  Speaker 13: which means they fly alongside or with other unmanned systems.
• 29:24
  Speaker 13: So that should be something that we see in the future.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: How important is it that we are now better aligned
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: with the aussi's and other forces.
• 29:34
  Speaker 13: This is critical. Australia is our only ally and I
• 29:37
  Speaker 13: have to say this is this amount of money represents
• 29:41
  Speaker 13: nearly one quarter of the twelve billion dollars that was
• 29:44
  Speaker 13: announced earlier this year, So this is a significant amount
• 29:47
  Speaker 13: of money for a significant investment. Important to be interoperable
• 29:52
  Speaker 13: with Australia. They have these particular helicopters, as do the
• 29:56
  Speaker 13: US and other allies. But I think that buying our
• 30:00
  Speaker 13: our own equipment for our own purposes has to be
• 30:02
  Speaker 13: the central point here. If it aligns with other countries,
• 30:05
  Speaker 13: that's great.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: What about the US foreign military sales program, you know,
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: rather than going to a wider attender. We're jumping on
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: that list? Is that significant.
• 30:15
  Speaker 13: Those who put together I think the user requirements would
• 30:18
  Speaker 13: have taken that into consideration. Because it is the US
• 30:21
  Speaker 13: system where we have to go through a foreign military
• 30:24
  Speaker 13: sales process. It's the same for everyone. The Australias go
• 30:28
  Speaker 13: through this in any other country. So there will be
• 30:31
  Speaker 13: a time period before we actually acquire them. What will
• 30:35
  Speaker 13: be important is the systems that we have here. We
• 30:38
  Speaker 13: have now the old c sprites, that they are maintained
• 30:41
  Speaker 13: and can still be operated.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: Josh, appreciate your time this morning, Thanks for coming on
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: the show. That's Josh Bunetta. He's a retired lieutenant colonel
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: and security expert on the Air Force. Getting a bit
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: of an upgrade. Nine to six News Talk SEVB the news.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: You need this morning and the in depth analysis earlier
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: edition with Bridge and One Room Love Where you Live Newstalks.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: B News Talk said B there was a court in
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: New York you might remember this where that found Trump
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: was basically padding his financial statements. This is last year,
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: adding a bit of GST to his financial documents and
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: going to lenders and going to insurers and saying hey,
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: I'm worth this much. So it's all good. And the
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: court said, no, you've been padding. Well, the penalty was
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty five million dollars plus interest. That's
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: five hundred and fifteen half a billion US dollars. This
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: court appearls Court has come out and said that, you know,
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: that's too much, that's ridiculous, excessive, and the Eighth Amendment
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: in the United States Constitutions stops excessive bail and excessive fines,
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: tries to limit the power of the government basically to
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: punish people. The punishment has to fit the crime. So
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: they have said that is way too much, and they
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: basically dismissed it in its entirety, although there's still the
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: door open for him to come back there for others
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: to come back, I should say, because the appeals door
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: remains open. It's five to six. Mike is here on
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: a Friday morning morning.
• 32:04
  Speaker 14: Mike, to be fair when you say they dismissed it
• 32:07
  Speaker 14: in its entirety, He's still guilty.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: Yes, of the crime, it's the punishment.
• 32:12
  Speaker 14: What's interesting about the split in the judges is at
• 32:15
  Speaker 14: least one I think more than one said that it
• 32:17
  Speaker 14: shouldn't have even been a case. Others said it is
• 32:20
  Speaker 14: a case, but it shouldn't have been seen the way
• 32:21
  Speaker 14: it did. And then somebody else said it was fine.
• 32:24
  Speaker 14: But the important point is it was very clear that
• 32:27
  Speaker 14: the original judge was out to get them. So when
• 32:30
  Speaker 14: this happens, what's the payback for the judge? Because it
• 32:34
  Speaker 14: was clearly political, So what's the payback for the judge?
• 32:36
  Speaker 14: What happens to the judge because you've got to go
• 32:39
  Speaker 14: hire more lawyers to take it to appeal, et cetera.
• 32:41
  Speaker 14: It's costing you a fortune to be proved to be right.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: But well, it hasn't happened though, because they haven't said
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: that the judgment was wrong, just that punishment was wrong.
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: Well yeah, yeah, but the yeah.
• 32:50
  Speaker 14: But the judge chased him and made him pay something
• 32:54
  Speaker 14: that he didn't need to pay. It was egregious, and
• 32:57
  Speaker 14: therefore there seems to be no comeback on a judge
• 32:59
  Speaker 14: who was clear politically motivated and driven to sink it
• 33:03
  Speaker 14: because half a billion dollars he was looking to sink
• 33:05
  Speaker 14: the company.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah he was, and affect all the real estate. But
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: the he should have just gone with a smaller fine,
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: and he probably would have gone exactly nothing. We wouldn't
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: be talking exactly. Scott robertson, all right, yep, oh, I'm sorry, Stapless.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: I'm going to tell him that what do you want
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: to do? Don't touch them, leave them alone. You come
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: in here, and you don't you make a big fuss
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: about how clean or not clean the studio was? Yes,
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: do you use these staples?
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: Of course?
• 33:31
  Speaker 8: Not?
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: Oh? Okay, whoever is doing it? Heather? Is it Heather?
• 33:36
  Speaker 14: I don't know, let's just name it.
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: Okay. Somebody is using the stapler in here, and I
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: use it every day, and I'm very fastidious at re
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: putting the staples back in. If I run out no.
• 33:47
  Speaker 14: Staples, it doesn't surprise no, matte.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: Do you think he's staples though? No, he doesn't.
• 33:52
  Speaker 14: He gets is made to do it for him because
• 33:54
  Speaker 14: I don't think he knows how to use the staple.
• 33:56
  Speaker 14: But I don't touch Stapless. So don't don't come at me.
• 34:00
  Speaker 14: Why you were saying Razor, You didn't seem that interested
• 34:03
  Speaker 14: only the All Blacks coach. Scott robertson, after seven point thirty,
