  Speaker 1: early edition with Spark for business technology that keeps business moving,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: News talks.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: It'd be give Morning six half for five. We've likely
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: got a new party entering parliament after the election. We'll
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: talk about that before six Budget Day. Across the Tasman,
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: we're live to Leslie and half of first home buyers
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: need help from mum and dad. We'll go to the
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: UK for the latest on Starmer too. The agenda speaking
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: of is still on thin ice for his MPs this morning.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: I'm somebody who has wanted Care to succeed as Prime Minister.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: I want our labor government to succeed, but I think
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: it's become increasingly clear that our labor government can no
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: longer succeed if we have Care at the helm.
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: He's not about mum, you know.
• 0:48
  Speaker 5: He's a very very nice man.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: Or he's an awful politician.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: That was Paula Barker. So fifty four MPs as I
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: came on here just a few minutes ago, it was
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: fifteen hour up to fifty four MPs, now fifty five
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: MP's according to Sky News as saying that Starmer should go,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: he should resign, and remember they need to get eighty
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: U plus one in order to force a vote. Earlier,
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: he made his big speech saying I'll prove the doubt
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: is wrong.
• 1:15
  Speaker 6: We will be better and do better in the months
• 1:19
  Speaker 6: and years ahead because we are not just facing dangerous times,
• 1:24
  Speaker 6: but dangerous opponents, very dangerous opponents. This hurts not just
• 1:31
  Speaker 6: because Labour has done badly, but because if we don't
• 1:35
  Speaker 6: get this right, our country will go down a very
• 1:39
  Speaker 6: dark Is.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: That the strategy is that? The strategy to say, hey,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: you know the guy that you will just voted for
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: instead of me, he's dangerous. I mean, come on, you're
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: thereby implying that everyone who voted for him is dangerous too. Anyway,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: in other news, let's go to Trump. He's calling around
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: slaves proposal stupid.
• 1:56
  Speaker 7: After reading a piece of garbage, I would say the
• 1:58
  Speaker 7: ceasplayer is on massive life support where the doctor walks
• 2:03
  Speaker 7: in and says, sir, your loved one has approximately a
• 2:07
  Speaker 7: one percent chance of living.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: I'm enjoying this this morning, kinsy you I mean, it's
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: not funny if you're there, obviously give us health authority.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Site eighteen Americans from the ship the Stricken Cruise Ship
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: where they head hand to virus. One person has tasted
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: positive that's taken American on the repatriation flat on Sunday
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: also showed symptoms in his fond to Atlanta.
• 2:31
  Speaker 8: Let me be crystal clear, the risk of Haunted virus
• 2:33
  Speaker 8: to the general public remains very, very low. The ANDES
• 2:38
  Speaker 8: variant of this virus does not spread easily, and it
• 2:41
  Speaker 8: requires prolonged close contact with someone who is already symptomatic.
• 2:46
  Speaker 8: Even so, we have taken this situation very seriously from
• 2:50
  Speaker 8: the very start.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: No guarantees dog so you can guarantee no American well
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: catch US virus from these returning passengers.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: There are no guarantees in life.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: We're putting as many measures in place as possible to
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: ensure that people are safe and healthy and we keep
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: the community seef and healthy as well. I don't know
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: why this is such a big story anyway. Finally, this morning,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: the pop star to Alipa has filed a fifteen million
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: dollar US lawsuit against Samsung for alleging it used her
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: image on packaging for its TVs without her permission. Her
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: lawyers claimed Samsung's packaging was designed to improperly capitalize on
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: her hard earned success.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: The news you need this morning and the in depth
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: analysis early edition with Bryan Bridge and Spark for Business
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Technology that keeps Business moving.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: News Talks a bur Ridi your text this morning, nine
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: ten ninety two is the number to text our ridgi
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: your text from my friend. It was sent at six
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: to Zho nine pm last night. Wtf is all this
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: handa virus expletive? This is somebody who doesn't have anything
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: to do with the news. What is all this handa
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: virus expletive? They send in the bridge ten thousand kilometers
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: away to a remote colony to drop a patients supplies.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: W TF? Also, why is it this leads the lead
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: story on the news when there's no threat to the public.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Again w TF. I'm reading between the lines and either
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: it's about to kick off or they are doing it
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: on purpose because of how up and URMs we get
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: about anything that resembles COVID. Quite insightful, I thought, and no,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: it's not about to kick off. I think it's the latter.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Anything it sounds like, looks like, moves like sniffs like COVID.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Let's lead with that. Let's get to the Malti party
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: for a second party, Maldi because yesterday you might have
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: seen or heard in the news about Mariomino Kapakini who's
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: starting her own party and breaking away. And then there
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: was a story that ord in Any Kaipitter, who used
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: to work at TV three now a Maulti Party MP
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: for Tommacky Mikoto for Rooklyn, that she was also going
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: to break away. There'd be a double breakaway from party Maldi. Well,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: then last night there was a statement from order Any
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: and Party Malordi saying, I want to correct the narrative
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: that is being reported about me this evening by media.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: I confirm that the comments claiming to be mine are not.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: The comments were to stuff I did not and have
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: not spoken with any reporter on this matter. So very
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: curious that, I mean, the reporter is not one from
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: what I can see, to make things up. But there
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: we are. Typically I remain a committed member of the
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: party Malori, et cetera, et cetera. So put any going nowhere.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Apparently finally this morning before we get to we will
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: get to the UK shortly, but you know, the energy
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: price crunts that's going on. We had yesterday a little
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: press conference from the Prime Minister and the Finance Minister
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: and Jane Jones, which laid out who's important in New
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Zealand in order of preference, and I'll get to that
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: in about twenty minutes. But over in India, Mody's had
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: his say and he's saying, we want you to do
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: working from home. We want you to limit your foreign travel.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: He's basically saying we need to cut our fuel use
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: a very dependent on diesel is the backbone fuel of
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: the Indian economy, and they import about ninety percent of
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: their oil. And he's saying, go and use public transport,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: use the metro car pool. And he's even told farmers
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: that you need to cut in half the amount of
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: fertilizer that you're using. So things a lot more dire
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: over there than they are here, you can be sure
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: of that. Twelve after five and The Brady Live from
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: the UK. Next on Starma News Talks EDB.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: On your Radio and online on iHeartRadio Belly Edition with
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and Spark for Business Technology that Keeps Business
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Moving News Talks EDB five fourteen.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: By the way, this is a couple of reasons why
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Trump has called the Iranians response to his peace proposal
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: stupid and worth putting in the garbage. They included things
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: like compensation for war damage. That's never going to happen.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: It's a non starter. Also, they wanted the Ranians to
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: claim sovereignty over the straightupor moves never going to happen.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: That's a non starter. Nitt and Yahoo's to come out
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: and see the deal is well. There will be no
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: deal until the uranium is handed over oil prices, responded accordingly, Brian, Now,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: I'm denarded whether to do this, but I'm about to
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: play you twenty eight seconds of secure Starmer and that
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: for a lot of people would probably be a turn off. However,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: it's important I do this because he is literally fighting
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: for his job this morning.
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: I know I have my doubts, and I know I
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: need to prove them wrong, and I will. Like every
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: Prime Minister, I've learned a lot in the first two
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: years in the job in terms of the policy challenges
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: that our country faces. Incremental change won't cut it on growth, defense, Europe, energy.
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: We need a bigger response that we anticipated in twenty
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: twenty four.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: Fifty five Labour MP's now the number according to Sky
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: that one'm gone joining us in the brady Are UK
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: correspondent in a good morning, good evening to you.
• 7:59
  Speaker 9: Good morning to you Ryan. Great to speak again, my friend.
• 8:01
  Speaker 9: How long do you think he's got I think until September.
• 8:05
  Speaker 9: He survived today, so there's no clear challenger. Nobody has
• 8:10
  Speaker 9: stuck their head of the parapet and said I'm a
• 8:12
  Speaker 9: cabinet minister. I will lead this party and this country
• 8:16
  Speaker 9: better back me and Sack Starmer. None of them have
• 8:19
  Speaker 9: had the guts to do that today. I've literally come
• 8:23
  Speaker 9: from London from my studio. I had one of Starmer's
• 8:25
  Speaker 9: friends in the studio with me, a labor loyalist, and
• 8:28
  Speaker 9: she said to me on air, that's the kind of
• 8:31
  Speaker 9: speech I wish he'd given two years ago. So there
• 8:34
  Speaker 9: is still some support. The party split, and I think
• 8:38
  Speaker 9: it's split three ways in terms of who comes next
• 8:40
  Speaker 9: or who they want to come next. But he has
• 8:42
  Speaker 9: survived Day one.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: I was watching Lorrain Beavis in Pay for Blackpool Northern
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: fleetwood House sid For our party to rediscover its connection
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: with working class communities like mine, we need a democratic
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: contest involving the most talented leaders. A kebnet appointment with
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: that consulting party and the movement would risk repeating the
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: same mistakes already made. Do you agree.
• 9:06
  Speaker 9: Look, Labor do things very differently. The Conservatives love a
• 9:10
  Speaker 9: bit of regicide they get rid of a leader when
• 9:13
  Speaker 9: they were in charge that they did it every few weeks.
• 9:15
  Speaker 9: I mean they'd three prime ministers in a year if
• 9:17
  Speaker 9: you can believe Liz Trusts famously being outlasted by a Lettus.
• 9:23
  Speaker 9: I think what Labour need to do now is to
• 9:27
  Speaker 9: coalesce around one serious challenger. The best person for the job,
• 9:31
  Speaker 9: I believe isn't even a member of Parliament. This is
• 9:34
  Speaker 9: Andy Burnham, the mayor of Manchester, a very good leader,
• 9:37
  Speaker 9: a good communicator, previously a Cabinet minister and someone from
• 9:41
  Speaker 9: the North of England who will get those working class
• 9:43
  Speaker 9: communities back on side. But for him to get in
• 9:47
  Speaker 9: he needs to become an MP and then challenge Starmer.
• 9:49
  Speaker 9: There are other names in the frame. The Health Secretary
• 9:52
  Speaker 9: Web Streeting apparently fancies his chances. So does Angela Rayner,
• 9:55
  Speaker 9: the former Deputy Prime Minister. But there's an issue over
• 9:58
  Speaker 9: her tax affairs. She's waiting to be cleared on that.
• 10:01
  Speaker 9: So Starmer has time, but he needs to start delivering.
• 10:05
  Speaker 9: Working people in the UK are struggling, they're angry, and
• 10:10
  Speaker 9: then you've got Nigel Farage telling them that come vault
• 10:13
  Speaker 9: from me. I'll sort all your problems. That's the conundrum.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: Indo Brady, a UK correspondent, good to Tavy on the
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: show This morning is always eighteen minutes out of five.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: Bridge Charmer was asked by the Way about burn and
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: Andy Burnham from the North could he return as an
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: even paid because of course it was blocked by the
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: Labor Party And.
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: He's doing a great job as mayor in Manchester. And
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: I actually work really well with Andy, and I'll give
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: you two examples on Northern Powerhouse rail, which is really
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: important for the Northwest. But equally we stood together to
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: support Manchester the community when we had the terrible attack
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: on a synagogue last year. Andrew was the first person
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: I phoned and I went straight to Manchester to work
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: with him on our response and we work very well together.
• 10:55
  Speaker 6: But the actual decision be one for the NEC and.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: We're feeling inspired. Nineteen after five news t'd be coming
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: up next. Who do you need? Who do you call
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: when you need help? Buying a first home?
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Before the news breaks? Here it first Ryan Bridge on
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: early edition with spark for business technology that keeps business moving,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: news talks the'd.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: Be It is twenty one after five new number out
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: this morning for you. Half of all first home buyers
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: expect help from the bank of Mum and Dad when
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: they are going for their first home. This is a
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: one choice Kiwi Housing survey. It's only five hundred New Zealanders,
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: but half of them reckon they're skipping medical appointments to
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: pay their rent. One third of renters think they are
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: cold and damp. Their cold and damp home is making
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: them sicker. Luke Somerville is Renters United President, joins us
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: this morning.
• 11:41
  Speaker 10: Hey Luke, good morning.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: Well do you reckon most renters are saving for a house?
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: Do most renters actually want to own a house?
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: Well?
• 11:50
  Speaker 10: I think I think a lot of people that's the dream,
• 11:53
  Speaker 10: just because renting is so I was going to say,
• 11:56
  Speaker 10: can swear pronyway, it's not great. Look, it's not great.
• 12:02
  Speaker 10: People aren't having a good time, and so for a
• 12:04
  Speaker 10: lot of people, the only way to get out of
• 12:06
  Speaker 10: that is to buy their own home.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: And the thing with property prices is that now they
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: are much lower than they were a couple of years ago,
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: particularly in some of our biggest cities, I mean everywhere
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: bar Queenstown basically, So it should in theory be easier
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: now than it has been in recent times.
• 12:23
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean you might say that, but the issue
• 12:26
  Speaker 10: that we if you look at the long view over
• 12:28
  Speaker 10: the last ten years, I mean, I think it's said
• 12:31
  Speaker 10: twenty one percent since twenty twenty. But even with when
• 12:34
  Speaker 10: we're talking about rents, I just want to draw your
• 12:36
  Speaker 10: attention to you know, its rate. It's increased by two
• 12:40
  Speaker 10: hundred and fourteen, so fifty and ten years for rents,
• 12:44
  Speaker 10: So it's gone up a lot over a long time.
• 12:47
  Speaker 10: And that's why I read is a feeling squeeze.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: And what do you think driving that, Luke? Do you
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: think that that is regulation? Do you think that that
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: is a lack of supply? And if it's a lack
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: of supply, why don't we have enough supply?
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: A good question.
• 13:00
  Speaker 10: I mean I think I think it's a lot of things.
• 13:02
  Speaker 10: Lack of supplier is a really big issue. Like for now,
• 13:05
  Speaker 10: I'm sure you've seen there's been a big glut in
• 13:07
  Speaker 10: the construction industry. So I mean what what we're seeing
• 13:11
  Speaker 10: often is just renters are just paying more and more
• 13:14
  Speaker 10: money for the same, you know, damp, drafty homes. It's
• 13:21
  Speaker 10: our housing stock is really basically decaying as a country.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: What about the changes to healthy homes that was meant
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: to make them all nice and spick and span. Is
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: that not the case?
• 13:33
  Speaker 10: Well not really unfortunately. I mean there's there's a lot
• 13:35
  Speaker 10: of loopholes and basically there's just not enough oversight and
• 13:41
  Speaker 10: enforcement really. So what we do see is a lot
• 13:44
  Speaker 10: of people, you know, they go tic, tach tech, all good,
• 13:47
  Speaker 10: and then you know you find out, oh, well, why
• 13:50
  Speaker 10: your renters you know, getting crooks from mold and all
• 13:54
  Speaker 10: the rest of it, and really no one's kind of
• 13:56
  Speaker 10: checking to make sure that these things are actually getting
• 13:59
  Speaker 10: followed through. That's a big issume.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: Look do you reckon if we put more regulation and
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: more taxes, if we did interest deductibility, do you think
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: that would mean we have more supply of rental properties
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: or less?
• 14:12
  Speaker 10: Well, look, I think we need to look at our priorities, right,
• 14:15
  Speaker 10: I mean the problem here renters feel like they're getting
• 14:18
  Speaker 10: cons because our rents are barely moving or increasing actually,
• 14:23
  Speaker 10: and then landlords are getting this two point nine billion
• 14:26
  Speaker 10: dollar handout in tax breaks. I mean, what if we
• 14:29
  Speaker 10: use that money to build more. I don't know, community
• 14:32
  Speaker 10: housing coming order whatever, that would actually increase the play
• 14:37
  Speaker 10: and that would low rents. But this money has just
• 14:40
  Speaker 10: gone straight into their pockets.
• 14:42
  Speaker 11: I mean.
• 14:43
  Speaker 10: And the problem again we we've got as renters, right,
• 14:45
  Speaker 10: is that you know, MPs on average have about two
• 14:49
  Speaker 10: point two homes I think national last time I checked
• 14:53
  Speaker 10: all throughout together of them one hundred and thirty six,
• 14:55
  Speaker 10: and I think that's before we found out the car belts.
• 14:58
  Speaker 10: Bates forgot about his twenty five properties in the trust.
• 15:01
  Speaker 10: So you know, we're not really addressing the root cause
• 15:05
  Speaker 10: of the issue.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: Right, all right, Logan, I have to leave you there.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: I appreciate your time this morning. That's Luke Somerville, Rents
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: United President. I'll get to a response on that after
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: five thirty. In about fifteen minutes this morning, it's twenty
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: five after the early.

  Speaker 2: It's twenty seven minutes half to five. I was going
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: to talk to you about the fuel rationing situation, but
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: having just spoken to Renders United, I think we need
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: to address this issue and knock it on the head.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: The interest deductibility annoys me because it is a cost
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: of doing business, and like it all lough that it
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: is a business. Providing a place, a warm drive place
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: for people to live, which is what the vast majority
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: of landlords in this country do, is a business. And
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: in any business, you get revenue and from that revenue
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: you deduct your expenses. Now, one of the expenses a
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: landlord incurs is the cost of funding the asset that
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: they have purchased. It is the interest, So you deduct
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: the interest from your revenue, and then you are taxed
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: on the remainder, just like any other business. No different.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: This is not a handout to landlords. It is simply
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: a cost of doing business, always has been, always should
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: be until labor gets in again. When they reckon, they'll
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: probably bring it back. It is a cost of doing business.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: If you make business more expensive, then you either reduce
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: the incentive to do the business. I take away the
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: number of rental properties that are available to people, thereby
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: pushing up the price the very thing our guest was
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: wanting to avoid, or you make it more expensive and
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: the price goes up equally. So sitting there and arguing
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: and saying we need to have more regulation. We need
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: to have more taxes, We need to do more. More
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: and more is only going to discourage the very thing
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: you want to encourage if price is your primary con Soon,
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: Ryan Bridge by twenty nine News Talks, Hebb We're going
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: to get to Australia next. We'll speak to Leslie. Yeomen's
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: big budget day across the Tasman for charmers, and they
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: reckon he's going to do a bit of a tax
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: lolly scramble for working people two hundred and fifty bucks
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: a year. However, there are already questions about your tax
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: break creep and how much of that you'll actually get
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: in the hand in real terms. We'll head to Leslie next,
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: and then before six o'clock this morning we will talk
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: to Andrew get Us about the muddy Omeno Kappa Kingy situation,
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: what happens for the makeup of Parliament. All ahead News Talks.
• 17:38
  Speaker 7: At b.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: US and Views you Trust. To start your day. It's
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: early edition with Ryan Bridge and Spark for Business Technology
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: that Keeps Business Moving US Talks.
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: B twenty four.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: Away from six News Talks, there'd be before six o'clock
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: a new chapter in the Shambalic novel, that is to
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: party Maldi will get to the Aussie budget, which is
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: happening today in a few minutes time. First, the most
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: interesting thing about the fuel ration plan has actually nothing
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: to do with fuel rationing. If you read the Q
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: and A, the script from the Minister's office provided and
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: you quickly realize this thing will probably never see the
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: light of day in any practical sense. Trump would need
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: to drop a nuke for us to get there, essentially.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: But what the plan spells out clear as day are
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: the most important industries, businesses, and government agencies in the country,
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: the ones that actually matter, top of the list literally
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: first in line for a one hundred percent fuel allocation,
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: not that we'll get there. Ambulances, fire, an emergency and police.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: Tell me the last time these guys were given proper
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: resources to do their jobs effectively. Paramedics are now, according
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: to the union, being asked to do cleaning. They're being
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: told not to change the sheets on gurnees after every
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: patient to save on laundry. The union recons they're not
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: fully funded and they must often go cap in hand
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: to keep themselves running in a float. The firefighters spend
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: as much time striking for adequate trucks to fight the
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: fires as they do while fighting the fires. And as
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: for police, yesterday we learned a third of resignations are
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: due to officers being poached by the Aussies for better pay.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: Some of the stuff is funded by levies, some by taxes,
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: the rest is just well not funded properly at all.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: This is not a cry for more taxes to fund them,
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: but rather a suggestion, a helpful suggestion, dear listener, that
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: anything not on the critical list is where you would
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: start cutting costs. What the government has just done, wittingly
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: or not, is tell us exactly what keeps this country running.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: It's not a fuel rationing list as much as a
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: blueprint for who is actually important. Emergency services, food to
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: keep your bellies full, freight farming, airport roads. We should
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: be directing resources towards them and cutting red tape around them.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: That surely would be one of the smartest ways that
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: we could get the country back on track. Ryan Rich,
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: She's go to our reporters Cullum and dned In morning.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Collen morning, right, who's running in the by election?
• 20:20
  Speaker 12: Well, we've got fourteen candidates running here and voting closes
• 20:23
  Speaker 12: today in this by election sparked by the unexpected death
• 20:27
  Speaker 12: of counselor and former mayor Jules Radick. Among those fourteen
• 20:31
  Speaker 12: Aaron Hawkins, who served nine years on the council, three
• 20:34
  Speaker 12: of them as mayor, before losing too Radick in twenty
• 20:37
  Speaker 12: twenty two. Two other former experienced councilors also in the running,
• 20:41
  Speaker 12: Andrew Wiley and Bill Acklin. And so the polls close
• 20:45
  Speaker 12: at midday today, Ryan, the Council will be operating a
• 20:47
  Speaker 12: special drive through voting option in the Octagon this morning
• 20:50
  Speaker 12: to collect votes from cars. If you haven't cast your
• 20:53
  Speaker 12: vote yet, A prelim result should be known tomorrow, with
• 20:57
  Speaker 12: the final result on Thursday.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: All right, how's your weather?
• 21:00
  Speaker 12: Chance of shower through the day today? So easterly is
• 21:03
  Speaker 12: gusty at times fourteen, the.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: High she is calum and clear on christ which morning, clear,
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Good morning. You've got a new NICU.
• 21:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 21:11
  Speaker 13: The NKU, the neonatal intensive care unit here, was opened
• 21:14
  Speaker 13: in two thousand and five with forty four cots. Since then,
• 21:18
  Speaker 13: we know Canterbury's populations grow more than twenty five percent
• 21:22
  Speaker 13: and that ward ends up at capacity most days. We've
• 21:24
  Speaker 13: heard stories like a woman who gave birth to twins
• 21:27
  Speaker 13: and the two babies were in different NICU units at
• 21:30
  Speaker 13: different parts of the country. Our Health New Zealand has
• 21:32
  Speaker 13: committed almost fourteen million dollars to an upgrade of our unit.
• 21:36
  Speaker 13: Maya Foundation is coming to the party with the rest.
• 21:38
  Speaker 13: This will allow fourteen more cots. Christchurch Hospitals NICU director
• 21:43
  Speaker 13: Bromwin Dixon says sixty mothers were transferred out of the
• 21:46
  Speaker 13: region last year, so this will be a game changer.
• 21:48
  Speaker 13: I mean people can stay closer to their families. She says,
• 21:51
  Speaker 13: they'll be able to look after more babies more safely
• 21:54
  Speaker 13: without shipping mums around the country.
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: How's your weather frosty to start.
• 21:59
  Speaker 13: Cloud developing the evening as Southwestern is picking up at
• 22:02
  Speaker 13: a high seventeen.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: Nice one clear. Thank you Jordan for Wellington, Jordan, good morning,
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: good morning. What's going on with the amalgamation there or
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: some counsils in the region appear to be more eager
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: than others. Mayoral leaders continue discussions last week on regional
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: reform after the government set a three month deadline for
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: amalgamation proposals from councils. Potado is Anita Bakers as the
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: region needs to be smart and work together and as
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: far as she's concerned, Potador is full steam ahead, while
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: Carpety meyor Janet Hullborough says the area is currently thriving
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: on its own. She says, it's happy to sit there
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: have the conversation here of any benefits, but at the
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: moment it's not looking likely. All right. How's the weather, Jordan,
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: cloudy periods northwesterly is turning suddenly in the afternoon a
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: hive of sixteen degrees. Nice one, thank you, and Neva
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: has aukad news for us this morning where two Pack
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: and Saved supermarkets and breech fair trading rules and the
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: ComCom is coming for them.
• 22:50
  Speaker 14: Yes, that's right, the old ComCom. So those two supermarkets
• 22:55
  Speaker 14: all Pack and Save Silverdale, Hamilton's Pack and Save Mill Street.
• 22:58
  Speaker 14: Now they have plea to guild two offenses. Now this
• 23:01
  Speaker 14: is stemming from pricing errors. So the Commerce Commissioned prosecutor,
• 23:05
  Speaker 14: that's Nick Flanagan. He says, Pack and Save mung Andy
• 23:08
  Speaker 14: was fined seventy eight thousand dollars for similar breaches. Now
• 23:12
  Speaker 14: this happened in twenty twenty, which didn't prompt any changes,
• 23:16
  Speaker 14: so now he's seeking a penalty starting point of one
• 23:19
  Speaker 14: hundred and sixty thousand dollars each, with discounts possible for
• 23:23
  Speaker 14: pleading guilty. Now the matter was heard in court last week,
• 23:27
  Speaker 14: was sentencing held until next month. So watch this carefully,
• 23:30
  Speaker 14: all right, very good?
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: How's our weather?
• 23:32
  Speaker 14: Scattered rain easing tonight, southeasterlyes are strong and exposed places.
• 23:36
  Speaker 14: Today's high seventeen here in auclar.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: Very good, Neiva, thank you very much. Eighteen minutes away
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: from six year On news talks, there'd b and I
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: can tell you you know, the other day we're talking
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: about AI and hacking, and it was sort of like, oh,
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: is the hacking going to get really bad? AI plus
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: hacking equals bad. And there's a new report from Google
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: out this morning. They are saying hacking is now going
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: to get itself on. In fact, it all already is
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: heading towards an industrial scale threat because you have criminal groups,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: You've got gangs, You've got those bad people linked to China,
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: North Korea and Russia who are using commercial models, your
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: Gemini clawed open AI. They are using these tools to
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: enhance to scale up their cyber attacks. So good luck,
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: will eighteen away from six charmers fifth budget details.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Next International Correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance Peace of
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: Mind for New Zealand Business got it to Section.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: News Talk the be Jim Charmers his fifth budget. The
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: announcement will come tonight. There'll be sweetness included. Though he's
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: got to watch inflation, doesn't he Leslie Yeoman's Australia correspondent
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: with US Leslie Good Morning.
• 24:45
  Speaker 14: Morning Ryan.
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: Yes, he does have to watch inflation, and that's what
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: he's been told by the Reserve Bank because they're worried
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: about inflation and that's one of the reasons why they
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: again in increased interest rates last week. One of the
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: things that has been sort of muted that is going
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: to happen tonight when he does release the budget is
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: that we're going to be spending more than three billion
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: dollars on an onshore fuel security reserve. People are saying
• 25:16
  Speaker 5: that a billion liters being an onshore reserve isn't enough,
• 25:20
  Speaker 5: but the money is going to be spent anyway. More
• 25:23
  Speaker 5: than seventy million dollars is going towards a counter terrorism
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: online center. Apparently more money also to be spent on defense,
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: but also what they're planning on doing to try and
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: to save money. Is going against a pre election promise
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: by Prime Minister Anthony Albernizi. They're going to change apparently
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: the capital gains tax discount that's going to be eased.
• 25:49
  Speaker 7: At the moment.
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: People who hold an investment for more than twelve months
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: a property and then sell it, they get a fifty
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: percent discount on that capital gains on the profit they make.
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: But apparently they're going to change that, and a lot
• 26:03
  Speaker 5: of people who who own investment properties are probably not
• 26:07
  Speaker 5: going to be too happy about that.
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: I certainly not. Will there be happy workers? Is the
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: truth in this working Australian tax offset are two hundred
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: and fifty bucks a year from next year? Is that
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: going to happen?
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: Look it could people Are people going to be happy
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: about it? Look at the moment, the way the economy
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: is in the way the cost of living is, people
• 26:29
  Speaker 5: aren't really happy about much at all because it's really
• 26:32
  Speaker 5: hitting people hard. It'll help a little bit, but to
• 26:36
  Speaker 5: be honest, no one is ever going to be really
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: happy with the way things are going because everything is
• 26:41
  Speaker 5: just so expensive at the moment.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, good point, And then you go vote one nation,
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: don't you. I appreciate your time this morning, Leslie. Yeomans
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: are Australia correspondent. It is thirteen minutes away from six
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: Bryan Bridge. Lady, I mean a Kapa king E. This
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: is THEPATHI Malei MP now going to run essentially as
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: an independent under the banner of t Tai Takodo. That's
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: really up north. There are loose suggestions that she could
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: have others joining her. She says she's open to calls
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: from either side of the aisle this.
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: Morning, despite political preference and party and so on. If
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: you see a moment where people are genuine, and I
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: want to be genuine, you make the most of those moments.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: Andrew Gettis is Otanga University law professor joins us this morning. Andrew,
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: good morning, great to have you on the program.
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, good morning Ryan.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: So what does this mean for Parliament.
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: At the moment? Nothing? Mona mino Kappa KINGI has I mean,
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: technically she's still a Teparty Mari MP as a result
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: of the High Court decision overturning her expulsion from the party.
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: But she's basically been acting as an independent. She hasn't
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: been caucusing with the Tapati Mari. She's been in an
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: office sort of, not with the rest of the caucus.
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: So at the minutes she'll remain in Parliament essentially as
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: an independent, which is what she's been even though she's
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: still under the teparty MO label.
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: And they're not going to walk a jumper because it's
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: too close to the election, right.
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, first of all, they'd have to expel her
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: from the party again, so they'd have to go through
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: their internal constitutional processes, and as the High Court showed,
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: their constitutions a mess and it's actually very hard for
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: them to use their expulsion powers, so they'd have to
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: do that first, and then they'd have to go through
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: the walker jumping processes in Parliament, and by that time
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: parliament's probably broken to the election anyway. So there's pretty
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: much no point.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: There's a perverse sort of outcome to this, isn't there.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: The Party Mari overhang benefits the Left block. If Labor
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: sweeps up the Maori seats some or all of them,
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: that overhang doesn't happen.
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, so there's two baths for that. First of all,
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: there's if Labor wins all the Maori seats, then any
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: votes that are cast for to party mari or for
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: this new Toe Total Growl party or any other party
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: with a Mariy basically a wasted they just won't count
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: and that could be you know, two percent, three percent
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: could be enough for the close election to basically switch.
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: Then the other bet is that if to party Marii
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: or another Marii party, when the electorate seats with a
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: very low party vote, those seats could become overhand seats,
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: which increases the size of Parliament, which then increases the
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: number of MPs you need for a majority. So there
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: is this oddness that year Labor would love to get
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: the Marti seats back, but if they do, that could
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: sort of come at the cost of them having enough
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: seats overall to be able to form government.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: Interesting stuff. Andrew get Us at Tagi University law professor
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: with us this morning on Mario Ameno, Kapakini and The Independent.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: It is ten away from six from yesterday's pressa with
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: Nichola Willis, the Finance Minister on fuel rationing.
• 29:50
  Speaker 11: Everyday in New Zealanders would still be able to buy
• 29:52
  Speaker 11: fuel at the pump, They just wouldn't be able to
• 29:54
  Speaker 11: buy as much at once as they used to.
• 29:57
  Speaker 14: We're going to have to be pragmatic.
• 29:59
  Speaker 11: And actually, if we're in phase four and the whole
• 30:02
  Speaker 11: world has had a massive disruption and the availability of fuel,
• 30:07
  Speaker 11: we would be asking New Zealanders to apply common sense
• 30:12
  Speaker 11: and to do well by their fellow New Zealanders.
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: Basically a lucy goosey, you choose your own adventure plan.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: There's no hard and fast until you get to level four.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: And getting to level four is, to quote the briefing document,
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: highly highly unlikely. Hey, very quickly interesting. What's happening over
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: in the US travel wise? The Canadians avoiding the US
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: come hell or high water because of Trump in his
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: second term. So border crossings down twenty five percent. But
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: they've got these researchers over there that contract cell phone
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: data and they reckon that there's been a forty two
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: percent drop in the number of Canadians visiting US cities.
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: Isn't it crazy? The stuff that they can watch and calculate.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: They used to go to New York, Hampshire, Vermont, Las
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: Vegas when it was cold and wintry, in which it
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: is a lot of the time. They go to Florida.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: Not happening as much anymore. Immigration enforcement, border crackdowns, and
