- 0:12Speaker 1: New Zealand's furniture beds and a play at store. News talks.
- 0:15Speaker 2: It'd be good morning. It is six after five year
- 0:18Speaker 2: old news talks. They'd be coming up before six. Willie
- 0:20Speaker 2: Jackson on the Treaty Principal's bill, why our super fund
- 0:24Speaker 2: is absolutely smashing it? And the Australian Correspondent. This morning
- 0:28Speaker 2: at quarter to six, there's a man hunt underway for
- 0:31Speaker 2: a guy who threw hot coffee at a nine month
- 0:34Speaker 2: old baby. It's a horrible, horrible thing to do in
- 0:36Speaker 2: a public place. We'll ask what's going on with that,
- 0:39Speaker 2: plus what is chrono working. We'll tell you.
- 0:44Speaker 1: The agenda.
- 0:45Speaker 2: It's Tuesday, the tenth of September. The Princess of Wales
- 0:48Speaker 2: says she has completed chemotherapy, almost six months after revealing
- 0:52Speaker 2: she was undergoing treatment for cancer.
- 0:54Speaker 3: Doing what I can to stay cancer free is now
- 0:56Speaker 3: my focus. So I finished chemotherapy. My path to healing
- 1:03Speaker 3: and full recovery is long and I must continue to
- 1:06Speaker 3: take each day as it comes.
- 1:08Speaker 2: Does anyone else feel a little intrusive about the fact
- 1:11Speaker 2: that we have to get these updates from her. Israeli
- 1:14Speaker 2: forces have conducted airstrikes in Syria, killing at least eighteen people.
- 1:18Speaker 2: It's believed military sites were targeted, including a research center
- 1:21Speaker 2: used to develop weapons. The IDEF says it won't comment
- 1:24Speaker 2: on the strikes, but previously, as we know, they've carried
- 1:26Speaker 2: out operations targeting sites linked to Iran and Hezbula. The
- 1:30Speaker 2: government's forced a Hawk's Bay health provider to back down
- 1:34Speaker 2: after offering free health care services to patients on the
- 1:36Speaker 2: basis of their race health. Our health Hawks Bay promoted
- 1:41Speaker 2: the access for poor people, those living in deprived areas,
- 1:44Speaker 2: and people with cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, etc. So far okay,
- 1:49Speaker 2: but they also added Maudi and Pacifica people to that list,
- 1:53Speaker 2: regardless of how well off they are. That's now been undone.
- 1:57Speaker 2: I think most kiwis A agree that's probably the right call.
- 2:01Speaker 2: Surely need must come first.
- 2:03Speaker 4: Are We communicated back to them that it was not
- 2:05Speaker 4: consistent with government policies, certainly not consistent with my gavement
- 2:08Speaker 4: policy statement.
- 2:10Speaker 2: There are two strikes making headlines this morning, one at Wilworst,
- 2:13Speaker 2: New Zealand from midday today, the other at Boeing in
- 2:15Speaker 2: the US, Wilworst offering an increase of six point six
- 2:18Speaker 2: percent Boeing twenty five percent. These are very different cases,
- 2:22Speaker 2: and a set will break down why Boeing workers are
- 2:25Speaker 2: likely to win and wool Worst staff likely to lose.
- 2:29Speaker 1: News and views you trust to start your day, It's
- 2:32Speaker 1: early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's
- 2:36Speaker 1: furniture beds and a playing store. News Talk said B.
- 2:45Speaker 2: It's nine minutes half to five year o. News Talk
- 2:47Speaker 2: said B. If you watch Postcab yesterday, you might have
- 2:50Speaker 2: seen a little debate ensue between a couple of journals
- 2:53Speaker 2: and Chris luxon this is the Treaty Principles Bill debate
- 2:57Speaker 2: Church b state the four hundred priests and the clergyman
- 3:01Speaker 2: and the clergy women who said they are opposed to
- 3:05Speaker 2: David Seymour's Treaty Principles Bill on the basis of fairness
- 3:08Speaker 2: and speaking truth to power and all this other stuff.
- 3:12Speaker 2: A lot of the journalists couch their questions. As a
- 3:15Speaker 2: man of faith, mister duckson how do you feel about
- 3:19Speaker 2: you know? Which I suppose is a fair enough tactic.
- 3:21Speaker 2: You know, if you're a journal and you're trying to
- 3:23Speaker 2: get an answer. This is what happened his response to
- 3:26Speaker 2: one of them.
- 3:26Speaker 1: If you've been described just before by general as a
- 3:29Speaker 1: man of faith and then by a.
- 3:30Speaker 2: Christian, what does you're in? A few people might be
- 3:34Speaker 2: curious about what you're not.
- 3:36Speaker 5: I mean, you've been evangelical, Christian has been throwing a
- 3:39Speaker 5: grounded a.
- 3:39Speaker 2: Lot of labels throwing. Well, I mean your chance to
- 3:42Speaker 2: kind of let us know a little bit about your faith.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Refer you to my maiden speech, Jason, if you're really
- 3:47Speaker 2: keen to understand it. Do we care if he is
- 3:50Speaker 2: a man of faith? Does any does it matter? Does
- 3:53Speaker 2: it make any difference? I suppose it's the same thing
- 3:56Speaker 2: as assuming, you know, are you assuming that because he's
- 3:58Speaker 2: a man of faith, that he will think exactly the
- 4:00Speaker 2: same as every other man and woman of faith out there?
- 4:03Speaker 2: And isn't their lightest like assuming that every Maordi person
- 4:06Speaker 2: will think exactly the same as every other Maordi person,
- 4:09Speaker 2: or every gay person will think exactly the same. This
- 4:11Speaker 2: is the problem with identity politics, isn't it. You know
- 4:15Speaker 2: you assume, oh, well, they you know, look the same
- 4:18Speaker 2: as me, or have sex with the same people as me.
- 4:20Speaker 2: Therefore they are identical to me. It is not the case. Also,
- 4:25Speaker 2: just on this Catholics still don't ordain women priests, do they?
- 4:31Speaker 2: And there's no rainbow flag flying at the Vatican. So
- 4:34Speaker 2: hypocrisy much, you know, until the Pope walks on a
- 4:38Speaker 2: pride parade, I think I'll take my moral lectures elsewhere.
- 4:42Speaker 2: Thank you very much the news.
- 4:43Speaker 1: You need this morning and the in depth analysis early
- 4:46Speaker 1: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's furniture
- 4:50Speaker 1: beds and a playing store.
- 4:52Speaker 2: News Talk said be two ten minutes after five stocks
- 4:54Speaker 2: have recovered in the US overnight. That the sell off
- 4:57Speaker 2: last week was pretty significant, so at least more well
- 5:01Speaker 2: more than a year since the last sell off that big.
- 5:04Speaker 2: Remember the regional banking crisis that the stock market endured
- 5:07Speaker 2: over in the States, Well it was worse than that
- 5:09Speaker 2: last week. Things have recovered slightly overnight, the Dow adding
- 5:13Speaker 2: one point one percent. They had that Job's report on Friday,
- 5:17Speaker 2: which was quite mixed. The next big thing to watch
- 5:21Speaker 2: for is the Federal Reserve and their announcement next week.
- 5:24Speaker 2: It's Tuesday or Wednesday next week, I forget which one.
- 5:27Speaker 2: Exactly will they go a quarter of a percent? Will
- 5:30Speaker 2: they go half a percent thirteen after five branch back here.
- 5:34Speaker 2: There were eighty suspected suicides in the construction industry last year.
- 5:37Speaker 2: That is a record high. And the Mates and Construction
- 5:41Speaker 2: Industry Group, who are a charity, they want to improve
- 5:44Speaker 2: well being and reduce that number. They have released some
- 5:48Speaker 2: new research this morning which is interesting. It found that
- 5:51Speaker 2: eighty five percent of workers reported positive mental well being.
- 5:55Speaker 2: That's ten percent more than the year previous. Doctor Lauren
- 5:58Speaker 2: donnan is with us this morning. She's from Mates and
- 6:01Speaker 2: constructed and conducted this research. Thank you for being with us.
- 6:04Speaker 6: Good morning, Good morning, Thank you for having me.
- 6:07Speaker 2: Can I st up what period of time is this
- 6:11Speaker 2: new data for, because the industry is struggling at the moment,
- 6:14Speaker 2: so I was surprised to hear that there was an
- 6:16Speaker 2: uptick in positive feelings.
- 6:19Speaker 6: Yeah, the particular piece of research you're referring to is
- 6:23Speaker 6: between August and November of last year.
- 6:26Speaker 2: Okay, so that might help explain some of that. What
- 6:29Speaker 2: are you putting this down to this increase?
- 6:33Speaker 6: I think it's really important that we do research annually
- 6:37Speaker 6: so we can understand the trends year on year and
- 6:41Speaker 6: also understand what is working well and what's not going
- 6:45Speaker 6: so well. So we can see underneath that eighty five percent,
- 6:49Speaker 6: what does.
- 6:49Speaker 2: It look like and what is it telling you?
- 6:53Speaker 6: It's telling us that year on year, overall well being
- 6:58Speaker 6: seems to be improving, that there are key groups that
- 7:02Speaker 6: are needing extra support within our industry, and those groups
- 7:06Speaker 6: have higher distress and lower mental wellbeing. And those are
- 7:10Speaker 6: workers like al Dangatahi aged fifteen to twenty four, our
- 7:13Speaker 6: non binary and female workers. And interestingly, this year we
- 7:17Speaker 6: looked at workers at the disability illness or mental illness
- 7:21Speaker 6: and that was a group that really needed extra support,
- 7:24Speaker 6: and one in five workers told us that they had
- 7:27Speaker 6: a disability or illness. When you think about the size
- 7:30Speaker 6: of that group, it's over two thousand workers. I mean, yeah,
- 7:33Speaker 6: quite a significant finding for us.
- 7:35Speaker 2: It is, it is very significant. What do you so?
- 7:38Speaker 2: Twenty twenty one there was seventy percent reported you know,
- 7:42Speaker 2: positive mental wellbeing. Twenty twenty two that was seventy five percent.
- 7:46Speaker 2: Twenty twenty three, eighty five percent. Is is it possible
- 7:50Speaker 2: that because we're talking more about it and the industry
- 7:53Speaker 2: is talking more about it, that's helping people to feel.
- 7:55Speaker 7: Better one hundred percent.
- 7:58Speaker 6: I think what we're seeing in and what our staff
- 8:00Speaker 6: who are out on the ground every day talking to workers,
- 8:04Speaker 6: is that shift in the culture on sites and being
- 8:08Speaker 6: able to talk about mental health, that really early intervention
- 8:13Speaker 6: stuff that we're doing where we get in there and
- 8:16Speaker 6: we make sure that work is still comestable having those
- 8:18Speaker 6: courageous conversations, and I think that raised awareness around mental
- 8:22Speaker 6: wellbeing is really helping.
- 8:26Speaker 2: Thank you so much for your time. Really interesting research,
- 8:28Speaker 2: as I said, that's come out this morning, Doctor Lauren
- 8:30Speaker 2: Donnan with us from Mates and Construction. She's the research
- 8:33Speaker 2: manager there. Just gone sixteen minutes after five. News Talk
- 8:36Speaker 2: said b why our super fund is smashing it.
- 8:39Speaker 1: Next the first word on the News of the Day
- 8:42Speaker 1: early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's
- 8:46Speaker 1: furniture Beds at a playing store. News Talk Sibby.
- 8:49Speaker 2: Good morning, just gone nineteen minutes after five. We'd love
- 8:52Speaker 2: to get your feedback this morning nine two nine two
- 8:54Speaker 2: on anything we're talking about, including this I mentioned earlier.
- 8:57Speaker 2: Two strikes, two big strikes in the news today is
- 9:00Speaker 2: woolworst here in New Zealand. So thousands are going on
- 9:02Speaker 2: strike today from twelve till two pm, walking off the job.
- 9:06Speaker 2: They say they're underpaid, their understaffed, and undervalue. The other
- 9:08Speaker 2: is Boeing in the States. They'll get to that in
- 9:10Speaker 2: a sec but with Woolwors so they're offering six point
- 9:14Speaker 2: six percent. This is the average increase for those who
- 9:17Speaker 2: are in the store pay increase six point six percent,
- 9:20Speaker 2: taking the starting rate to twenty six dollars sixty for
- 9:23Speaker 2: those working in a store at Woolworst in New Zealand.
- 9:26Speaker 2: Here's a couple of reasons why I think they might
- 9:29Speaker 2: be in a little bit of trouble getting more than
- 9:31Speaker 2: that one. The Wilworst result was down fifty seven percent,
- 9:35Speaker 2: the one that we just had reported to seventy one
- 9:37Speaker 2: million dollars two. Inflation is set to be back in
- 9:41Speaker 2: the target range of one to three percent by September,
- 9:44Speaker 2: meaning the wool Worst offer is essentially better than inflation
- 9:48Speaker 2: over the next couple of years. Unemployment in New Zealand
- 9:51Speaker 2: is up in the latest data, so Willis has options
- 9:55Speaker 2: in terms of hiring other people. The other thing is Costco.
- 9:59Speaker 2: They say Costco's twenty seven dollars an hour. Well, that's
- 10:02Speaker 2: an outlier when you look across the board. Now, the
- 10:05Speaker 2: Boeing thing is really interesting. This is over an American
- 10:08Speaker 2: They are offering a twenty five percent increase in pay
- 10:11Speaker 2: to their staff. Wow. Sure it's over four years, but
- 10:14Speaker 2: that's still six point two five percent per annum. This
- 10:17Speaker 2: is for their Seattle and Portland factories. Now. The reason
- 10:21Speaker 2: that the workers there have so much power, well, there's
- 10:23Speaker 2: a couple of reasons, but one of them. Boeing is
- 10:26Speaker 2: absolutely under the pump. Has a record backlog of seven
- 10:30Speaker 2: thousand planes. They can't afford to not have any workers
- 10:34Speaker 2: in the factories right now. When you're desperate and you're
- 10:37Speaker 2: in a tight spotlight that you'll basically pay anything to
- 10:40Speaker 2: keep them on the job. Twenty one minutes after five
- 10:43Speaker 2: Bryan Bridge. The value of the New Zealand Superfund has
- 10:46Speaker 2: reached a record high seventy six point six billion dollars
- 10:49Speaker 2: at the end of financial year twenty four. That's up
- 10:52Speaker 2: from sixty five odd billion a year earlier. Posted an
- 10:55Speaker 2: investment return of almost fifteen percent after costs but before
- 10:59Speaker 2: tax for the year thirtieth of June. It means the
- 11:02Speaker 2: fund paid one point five billion in tax. The government
- 11:05Speaker 2: contributions to the fund during the year were one point
- 11:07Speaker 2: six billion. Jonathan Erickson's the Superannuation and superfund expert with
- 11:11Speaker 2: us this morning. Jonathan, Good morning morning, Ryan. This sounds great.
- 11:15Speaker 2: Are they just riding the stock market wave here or
- 11:18Speaker 2: is this a specific strategy that's netting the result.
- 11:22Speaker 8: Now it is the stock market wave, Ryan, but they're
- 11:25Speaker 8: exploiting that wave very well. They've always gone into a
- 11:31Speaker 8: wide range of assets all around the world, but they
- 11:34Speaker 8: are playing it extremely well and the results this year
- 11:39Speaker 8: make up for a very poor return which everybody had
- 11:42Speaker 8: when the markets went down in twenty twenty two. So
- 11:45Speaker 8: in that sense, fifteen percent is a great return. The
- 11:49Speaker 8: key one from my point of view is that over
- 11:52Speaker 8: the life of the fund, which has been going through
- 11:54Speaker 8: over twenty years now, they've got over ten percent perannum
- 11:58Speaker 8: and that's the superb result because it's consistent as well.
- 12:03Speaker 2: When it comes to real estate, infrastructure Timber. These are
- 12:06Speaker 2: things that the part of the active investment strategy that
- 12:09Speaker 2: they have is that a significant part.
- 12:12Speaker 8: Of this no, it's a relatively small part. The bulk
- 12:16Speaker 8: of it is the global share market run that's done
- 12:20Speaker 8: so well, but all these little things on the side help,
- 12:23Speaker 8: and especially in New Zealand. I think the best example
- 12:26Speaker 8: I've got right, and it's an old one there, but
- 12:29Speaker 8: Shell sold its downstream assets and the New Zealand super
- 12:33Speaker 8: Fund and Infantol joined up and boards Z and now
- 12:37Speaker 8: we've got Z petrol stations throughout the country and they're
- 12:41Speaker 8: making a much better profit than when Shell owned them.
- 12:44Speaker 8: So it is adding value in a whole lot of
- 12:46Speaker 8: different ways. But as I say, the key to it
- 12:49Speaker 8: is the superb run that the stock markets had since
- 12:52Speaker 8: about October last year.
- 12:55Speaker 2: What does this mean for us in terms of, you know,
- 12:58Speaker 2: our fortunes in retirement.
- 13:00Speaker 8: Oh, it's superb because it means that everybody can enjoy
- 13:05Speaker 8: their retirement from age sixty five without feeling that you know,
- 13:11Speaker 8: the country owes us money or the taxes having to
- 13:13Speaker 8: go up. And that's the best bit. I mean, if
- 13:16Speaker 8: it wasn't for the New Zealand super Fund, we'd be
- 13:19Speaker 8: paying more tax.
- 13:21Speaker 2: It's almost like we should have done it earlier. Jonathan.
- 13:23Speaker 2: Thank you Jonathan Ericson with our superannuation and superfund experts
- 13:27Speaker 2: and good news for your Tuesday morning, twenty three minutes
- 13:30Speaker 2: after five News talks theb some of your feedback coming
- 13:33Speaker 2: next Nine to nine two is the number. Also this
- 13:36Speaker 2: business with ird giving your details some of your details
- 13:40Speaker 2: over to Facebook, et cetera. Doesn't seem right, does it.
- 13:43Speaker 1: The early edition full show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by newstalksb.
- 13:49Speaker 2: Ird is giving your data to Facebook? Taxpayers data to Facebook.
- 13:54Speaker 2: That was the headline yesterday. We give them our data
- 13:58Speaker 2: in trust and confidence. Will we don't? Actually we give
- 14:01Speaker 2: them our data because the law says we must file
- 14:04Speaker 2: our tax returns and tell them who we are and
- 14:05Speaker 2: how much we're earning, etc. But perhaps you assume that
- 14:09Speaker 2: the law says that they must keep it to themselves.
- 14:12Speaker 2: Not so. And I think this is a scandal. It
- 14:15Speaker 2: is scandalous, to be honest. When I read the headline,
- 14:19Speaker 2: I thought, oh, IOD must have been hit by one
- 14:21Speaker 2: of those phone scams. You know, they've been cold called
- 14:23Speaker 2: by Nigerian prince and handed over our private data. But no,
- 14:26Speaker 2: The R and Z report says they give Facebook and
- 14:29Speaker 2: the big tech guys some of our information because it's anonymized.
- 14:34Speaker 2: It's hashed what they're calling it hashed, so they can't
- 14:38Speaker 2: see who you are when they hand it over. And
- 14:41Speaker 2: it's only for the purposes of IOD placing ads on
- 14:44Speaker 2: these platforms like Facebook, etc. So don't worry about it. Sorry,
- 14:49Speaker 2: I am and I reckon. Most kiwis will hate this.
- 14:51Speaker 2: The reason is pretty simple. It's trust. Do you trust Facebook?
- 14:56Speaker 1: No?
- 14:57Speaker 2: Do you believe they will keep your data secure?
- 15:00Speaker 9: No?
- 15:01Speaker 2: Do you believe they won't marry up your private data
- 15:05Speaker 2: that our government has just handed them on a silver
- 15:08Speaker 2: platter with the profiles they have on you already. No,
- 15:13Speaker 2: No one trusts these guys. I don't want some government
- 15:15Speaker 2: department sending my data to some Silicon Valley server so
- 15:19Speaker 2: that some tech guy can better bug me with intrusive
- 15:23Speaker 2: ads about what undies to buy. I actually think there's
- 15:28Speaker 2: more to this story, and there will be, because they
- 15:30Speaker 2: have a life of their own. It won't just be
- 15:32Speaker 2: the IDA that's doing it. There'll be other government departments,
- 15:35Speaker 2: There'll be other private data. There'll be more of us
- 15:38Speaker 2: affected and luxe and should get ahead of this and
- 15:42Speaker 2: just say let's have some kind of little review, because
- 15:45Speaker 2: otherwise you're going to get these headlines ticking over and
- 15:47Speaker 2: over and over, and I think people will be sick
- 15:51Speaker 2: of it. Also, we need to have as citizens, we
- 15:57Speaker 2: need to have faith that when we give our data
- 15:59Speaker 2: to the government and it is kept secure and safe,
- 16:02Speaker 2: and even a perception that it's not is not good enough.
- 16:06Speaker 2: Twenty eight after five breach. That's more to come on
- 16:09Speaker 2: the show. We're going to go to Donald Demayo, our
- 16:11Speaker 2: Australia correspondent after the news. At five point thirty there
- 16:15Speaker 2: have been anti war activists disrupting weapons expo in Melbourne.
- 16:19Speaker 2: We'll get the latest on that, plus very quickly the
- 16:22Speaker 2: you know the Russian spy, the beluga whale that we
- 16:25Speaker 2: talked about, the white whale with the thinging around its
- 16:28Speaker 2: neck they thought was a spy. Anyway, Valdemar is his name.
- 16:31Speaker 2: He's died. I told you that last week, remember, and
- 16:35Speaker 2: the animal rights activists reckoned that he had been shot.
- 16:39Speaker 2: Turns out that's not quite right. And we I even
- 16:42Speaker 2: speculated it was bad, but I speculated that perhaps Putin
- 16:46Speaker 2: had gone hunting. Apparently not. The police have done an
- 16:50Speaker 2: autopsy on Valdemar, and apparently he had a fourteen inch
- 16:55Speaker 2: stick stuck in his mouth so he couldn't eat poor
- 16:59Speaker 2: thing other than some wrat fishing and found him floating
- 17:02Speaker 2: in the water. Anyway, it wasn't shot, It was a stick.
- 17:05Speaker 2: Twenty nine after five.
- 17:32Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines, Ryan Bridge, you for twenty
- 17:35Speaker 1: twenty four on early edition with Smith City, New Zealand's
- 17:39Speaker 1: furniture bids at a playing store.
- 17:41Speaker 2: News Talk zid be good morning, it is twenty four

- 18:01Speaker 2: the tenth of September and we're going to head to
- 18:03Speaker 2: Willie Jackson, Labour's Maori development spokesperson. Just before six o'clock,
- 18:08Speaker 2: David Seymour has made some concessions on the Treaty Principles Bill.
- 18:11Speaker 2: Does that mean that people are going to back down?
- 18:14Speaker 2: Donod de Mayo, our Australia correspondent, is with us shortly.
- 18:18Speaker 2: There's a big anti war protest going on in Melbourne. Also,
- 18:22Speaker 2: there's a man hunt for a guy, a thirty two
- 18:23Speaker 2: year old who poured a flask of hot coffee over
- 18:27Speaker 2: a nine month old baby in a Brisbane park. Apparently
- 18:30Speaker 2: he's fled overseas, so we'll find out more about that
- 18:32Speaker 2: from here as well. Do you know what chrono working is?
- 18:36Speaker 2: Interesting story in the Herald this morning, Tipped to be
- 18:39Speaker 2: the next big employment craze here in New Zealand. Chrono
- 18:42Speaker 2: working is where you're allowed to choose your own work
- 18:46Speaker 2: hours based on your circadian rhythm, your personal sleeping patterns
- 18:50Speaker 2: and the times that you are most productive. Come on,
- 18:54Speaker 2: so you could start early. I mean I might just
- 18:57Speaker 2: go home now I feel my circadian rhythm kicking. So
- 19:01Speaker 2: you can come in at morning tea time, you can
- 19:03Speaker 2: nap in the early afternoon. You can basically do what
- 19:05Speaker 2: you want. There's a survey in Australia forty two percent
- 19:09Speaker 2: for chrono working would improve their mental health. Have you
- 19:12Speaker 2: ever had such nonsense? It's like those school kids in
- 19:16Speaker 2: christ Heach who have been given the option to study
- 19:19Speaker 2: from home two days a week. Honestly, what was the
- 19:22Speaker 2: world coming to? If you're worried about your mental health,
- 19:25Speaker 2: do you know what you should not do? Go home
- 19:28Speaker 2: and avoid people. That's the worst thing you can do
- 19:32Speaker 2: for it. Twenty two away from six Ryan Bridge, showing
- 19:35Speaker 2: to our reporters right around the country. Callum Proctor is
- 19:38Speaker 2: in Dunedin. Good morning, callumod morning, right, good to have
- 19:41Speaker 2: you on the show. So tell us about the homeless
- 19:43Speaker 2: people camping in the oval? What's going on here?
- 19:46Speaker 10: Well, they're not there anymore. These tents were first set
- 19:49Speaker 10: up nearly two years ago. The council has confirmed that
- 19:53Speaker 10: well At its peak, the site had up to sixty
- 19:56Speaker 10: people living there. There have been some rumors on lines
- 20:00Speaker 10: suggesting the campus had been kicked out, but charity groups
- 20:03Speaker 10: and support groups alike saale this isn't the case. Dunedin
- 20:07Speaker 10: Betting Banks say a lot of groups such as MSD
- 20:09Speaker 10: and police have helped get those people into emergency or
- 20:13Speaker 10: temporary housing now that fits their needs.
- 20:15Speaker 2: They say.
- 20:15Speaker 10: Others that were on the site not allocated housing have
- 20:20Speaker 10: also moved on. The Dunedon City Council ryans confirmed that
- 20:23Speaker 10: no one was forcibly removed from the sports ground where
- 20:27Speaker 10: they were camping at the oval in Donedan.
- 20:29Speaker 2: Oh okay, well that's good that they've found somewhere else
- 20:31Speaker 2: for them. Weather today, Cullum.
- 20:34Speaker 10: Shower is developing today with the fresh sol westerly easing
- 20:36Speaker 10: the high thirteenth.
- 20:37Speaker 2: Thank you very much. Claise Sherwood is in christ You
- 20:39Speaker 2: good morning to you. Clear the road tripping staple that's
- 20:43Speaker 2: doing well.
- 20:45Speaker 11: Yeah, Look, it's nice to have a good news story
- 20:47Speaker 11: this morning.
- 20:47Speaker 1: Ryan.
- 20:47Speaker 11: The Fairly Bay House, which if you've traveled the South
- 20:50Speaker 11: Island you'll know is renowned for award winning pies, has
- 20:54Speaker 11: reached a milestone of fifteen years in business, Director Franz
- 20:58Speaker 11: Lieber says it's humbling to have reached what he's describing
- 21:01Speaker 11: as an unexpected success, saying it all comes down to
- 21:04Speaker 11: staff and their consistency. He says the fun they have
- 21:07Speaker 11: at work is evident to customers. I don't know why
- 21:09Speaker 11: you'd want to go home early if you work there,
- 21:11Speaker 11: and they're always willing to help out as much as
- 21:13Speaker 11: they can. He does say some staff have been with
- 21:15Speaker 11: him for more than a decade, which is a success
- 21:17Speaker 11: in itself.
- 21:18Speaker 2: Hat what's your favorite there? Have you got a pie
- 21:21Speaker 2: or a what?
- 21:22Speaker 11: I'm not a big pie eater, but my husband loves
- 21:24Speaker 11: the pork belly and apple sauce.
- 21:26Speaker 3: One. You should get one, right?
- 21:27Speaker 2: That sounds pretty good, Thank you, Claire. So that's unfairly.
- 21:30Speaker 2: The weather in Canterbury.
- 21:32Speaker 11: Today mostly fine today, warm start. We could see a
- 21:35Speaker 11: shower or two though, and the high as eighteen brilliant.
- 21:37Speaker 2: Thank you Max Holes and Wellington Max. The Kubu rail
- 21:41Speaker 2: sentencing emotions running high.
- 21:43Speaker 5: Yeah, a QUBA will find more than four hundred thousand
- 21:46Speaker 5: dollars yesterday after the May Day incident early last year
- 21:50Speaker 5: in which the Kentucky Cook straight very lost power. It
- 21:53Speaker 5: began drifting towards share. It happened because of a faulty part. Luckily,
- 21:57Speaker 5: the captain did regain control of the ship before anything
- 22:00Speaker 5: disastered disastrous could happen. Yeah, QWI reel sentence. We learned
- 22:04Speaker 5: of what it was like on board for some of
- 22:06Speaker 5: those passengers. They were all invited to give statements to
- 22:09Speaker 5: the court during this sentencing. Sixteen were read out crying, vomiting,
- 22:13Speaker 5: panic attacks. One child couldn't be convinced that she and
- 22:16Speaker 5: her family were not going to die, shaking and hyperventilating.
- 22:20Speaker 5: Some of the passengers were filming final farewells to their
- 22:23Speaker 5: family as well. Meanwhile, there's a voice on the intercom
- 22:26Speaker 5: telling them to put their life jackets on, but the
- 22:28Speaker 5: voice seemed to be crying. Some people trapped for a
- 22:31Speaker 5: time in the lifts. So yeah, a very distressing time
- 22:35Speaker 5: for some of those eight hundred and fifty passengers. Four
- 22:37Speaker 5: hundred and twelve thousand dollars fine, it could have been
- 22:40Speaker 5: a maximum one point five million.
- 22:41Speaker 2: For qwirail Wow, all right with it today.
- 22:44Speaker 5: Mix, she'll we mainly find some stronger norwesterly sixteen the
- 22:47Speaker 5: high Central.
- 22:48Speaker 2: Thank you neighbors, and Auckland. Good morning, neighbor, good morning,
- 22:51Speaker 2: lovely to see you. The text on bus drivers.
- 22:54Speaker 12: Oh, that's as terrible here in Auckland bus drivers they
- 22:57Speaker 12: deserved danger money. So two Auckland bus drivers have suffered
- 23:00Speaker 12: serious injuries since the end of August. One are broken
- 23:04Speaker 12: to the other spinal fracture. The union's Auckland president, that's
- 23:08Speaker 12: a tramways union says that all the new electric buses
- 23:11Speaker 12: now they're going to be equipped with security screens. And
- 23:14Speaker 12: Gary Froggett, he's the president. He says, it doesn't cover
- 23:17Speaker 12: all the busses though, and so the next step really
- 23:20Speaker 12: is retro fitting the existing diesel fleet, but that's going
- 23:24Speaker 12: to take some time. But yeah, I mean, you've just
- 23:26Speaker 12: got to feel for these bus drivers. They's just trying
- 23:28Speaker 12: to get their job done. And you know, you get
- 23:31Speaker 12: these people coming in and you know, slapping them around.
- 23:34Speaker 2: Yet it's not good and you can't exactly kick them
- 23:36Speaker 2: off of the agro, can you, because you know then
- 23:39Speaker 2: you're going to get hurt.
- 23:39Speaker 13: That's right.
- 23:40Speaker 12: And you know you can't get the passengers involved either,
- 23:42Speaker 12: and none of the passengers they're quite scared. And so
- 23:46Speaker 12: Froggitt is also saying that many are questioning. This is
- 23:48Speaker 12: the bus drivers saying is it worth being a bus driver.
- 23:51Speaker 2: At It's a fair question to ask. I want to
- 23:55Speaker 2: know during COVID, remember all the jerryes and everything pop
- 23:57Speaker 2: those perspect that all happened overnight. Why can the bus
- 24:03Speaker 2: drivers not get I've been for years.
- 24:06Speaker 12: Those screens perfect and they need to get the funding
- 24:09Speaker 12: for that. I think they deserve it.
- 24:10Speaker 2: I think so too. Neva with it today.
- 24:12Speaker 12: Find spells increasing this morning We've got isolated shows, but
- 24:15Speaker 12: that will come. This evening eighteen is the high here
- 24:17Speaker 12: in Auckland.
- 24:18Speaker 2: Brilliant. Have a great day. Seventeen minutes away from Sex
- 24:21Speaker 2: News Talk.
- 24:21Speaker 1: SEDB International Correspondence with ends in eye Insurance Peace of
- 24:26Speaker 1: mind for New Zealand business.
- 24:28Speaker 2: Just got brought it to Section News Talks the B
- 24:30Speaker 2: for your Tuesday morning. Willie Jackson here on the Treaty
- 24:34Speaker 2: Principles Bill in just a second right now, though, Donnadma
- 24:37Speaker 2: is our Australia correspondent, Donna, good to have you on
- 24:40Speaker 2: the program. This weapons expo in Melbourne bracing for big protest.
- 24:44Speaker 2: What's going on?
- 24:46Speaker 14: Yes, In fact, Victoria police have erected a ring of
- 24:49Speaker 14: steel as they describe it around this weapons expo. It's
- 24:52Speaker 14: going to have about eight hundred companies there and there's
- 24:55Speaker 14: going to be military tanks and semi automatic guns on display,
- 24:59Speaker 14: and a lot of peop people are expected to attend
- 25:01Speaker 14: the expo itself, but it's understood up to about twenty
- 25:05Speaker 14: five thousand people may take to the streets, these anti
- 25:09Speaker 14: war activists they're calling themselves, and they possibly planned to
- 25:12Speaker 14: cause chaos. So Victoria police are trying to be prepared
- 25:15Speaker 14: for that. Interstate police have been called in and it
- 25:19Speaker 14: suggested it may be a repeat of similar scenes. Way
- 25:21Speaker 14: back in two thousand there was absolute mayhem and violence
- 25:24Speaker 14: on the streets when protesters targeted the World Economic Forum
- 25:28Speaker 14: and about one hundred people were arrested at that time.
- 25:32Speaker 7: So this Land Forces Expo.
- 25:34Speaker 14: Does have the focus of police and activists. In fact,
- 25:37Speaker 14: already at the weekend some Melbourne hotels have been painted
- 25:40Speaker 14: red and vandalized, and so we do believe that hundreds
- 25:44Speaker 14: of police are being brought in as I mentioned, and
- 25:46Speaker 14: there's already this fencing that's covered in tarps. So it's
- 25:49Speaker 14: not really clear now to the general public what's happening
- 25:52Speaker 14: behind those tips, but you might want to know that
- 25:56Speaker 14: police now do have these extra increased power was to
- 26:00Speaker 14: search any person and vehicle under heightened anti terrant legislation
- 26:06Speaker 14: in Victoria, the Lord Mary in the meantime, he's just saying,
- 26:08Speaker 14: please everybody stay calm.
- 26:10Speaker 2: Yeah, Nia, it sounds like there might be some need
- 26:13Speaker 2: for calm there. Tell us this thirty two year old
- 26:15Speaker 2: who allegedly poured a flask of hot coffee on a
- 26:18Speaker 2: nine month old baby in Brisbane.
- 26:21Speaker 14: Yes, it's been described as a deliberate and unprovoked attack.
- 26:25Speaker 14: This baby suffered significant burdens to his face, arms and legs.
- 26:28Speaker 7: Now, thankfully he's on the men.
- 26:30Speaker 3: Now.
- 26:30Speaker 14: This happened on the twenty seventh of August, but we
- 26:33Speaker 14: have had an update from Brisbane Police and we now
- 26:36Speaker 14: know that the man who allegedly did this pouring this
- 26:40Speaker 14: scolding coffee on a nine month old baby has escaped
- 26:43Speaker 14: overseas and he escaped they believe less than a day
- 26:47Speaker 14: before he was identified by detectives.
- 26:49Speaker 7: And I found this most interesting.
- 26:52Speaker 14: Police have confirmed that it became apparent that this person
- 26:54Speaker 14: was aware of police methodologies, was conducting countess of aileence
- 26:59Speaker 14: activity and that made the investigation quite complex.
- 27:03Speaker 7: Meantime, the family is saying they do hope that one
- 27:06Speaker 7: day justice will be served.
- 27:08Speaker 2: It's bizarre, isn't that.
- 27:09Speaker 7: The baby Okay, the baby is on the mend. We
- 27:12Speaker 7: heard from the family as well.
- 27:13Speaker 14: He's up and about and walking again, and his mother
- 27:17Speaker 14: is just really that he's such a strong little boy.
- 27:19Speaker 2: As she put it, absolutely Donna, thank you for that. Donald. Tomorrow,
- 27:22Speaker 2: our Australia correspondent, News Talk said b twelve away from six.
- 27:26Speaker 2: Bryan Bridge Act leader David Seymour has confirmed a change
- 27:30Speaker 2: to the Treaty Principal's Bill, which was discussed in Cabinet yesterday.
- 27:33Speaker 2: He says the Government agreed on its broad outline and
- 27:36Speaker 2: the bill will now go to parliament s drafters.
- 27:39Speaker 13: Well, actually are going to change a little bit to
- 27:41Speaker 13: acknowledge the acknowledgment of the rights of Hapu and Eli
- 27:45Speaker 13: at the time of the treaty, because I think a
- 27:47Speaker 13: lot of people have been annoyed that we didn't include that.
- 27:50Speaker 2: One of those annoyed, Willie Jackson, labor Maori Development spokesperson,
- 27:53Speaker 2: really more than a good morning, mar Din Ryan.
- 27:57Speaker 9: Good to talk with you mate.
- 27:58Speaker 2: Yeah, good to have you on the show. Does that
- 28:00Speaker 2: is that music? To your ears. Are you now on
- 28:02Speaker 2: board with all this?
- 28:03Speaker 9: Will he cut of that right? I mean, the whole
- 28:08Speaker 9: thing is a joke. It's it's interesting though that he's
- 28:13Speaker 9: made some type of concession, you know, because of the
- 28:17Speaker 9: bloke is you know how seamour's been going. It's all,
- 28:20Speaker 9: we are the world and everybody's got the same rights,
- 28:23Speaker 9: and there's been no concession whatsoever has there in terms
- 28:27Speaker 9: of indigenous or maldi right. So you know, that is
- 28:30Speaker 9: a little bit of a background, I would say, because
- 28:34Speaker 9: you know, he's never ever said that there was any
- 28:38Speaker 9: sort of rights in terms of hapou ewe or whatever.
- 28:41Speaker 9: So I find that interesting. But that's certainly not going
- 28:44Speaker 9: to convince us of the merits of this. This The
- 28:48Speaker 9: drive with us is to actually extinguish indigenous rights. That's
- 28:53Speaker 9: that's just the reality.
- 28:55Speaker 2: But he's just specifically changed his bill to include them.
- 29:00Speaker 9: It's just nonsense. The driver, the drive of the bill
- 29:05Speaker 9: is to make it very clear that mary don't have
- 29:09Speaker 9: special rights. He hasn't. He has not said that he's
- 29:15Speaker 9: going to acknowledge. You know, there's an acknowledgement there and
- 29:19Speaker 9: that's and that's good. But but he's trying to give
- 29:23Speaker 9: everyone the same indigenous right set especially allocated for Mardi,
- 29:28Speaker 9: particularly in an article two, in in article three and
- 29:32Speaker 9: and and this is some sort of this is some
- 29:37Speaker 9: sort of strategy I think to try and give him
- 29:39Speaker 9: an opportunity to to see if he can get national
- 29:42Speaker 9: across the line. I don't think he's got any chance
- 29:44Speaker 9: of that at the moment. You never know.
- 29:47Speaker 2: In your opposition to this, you you there's a lot
- 29:50Speaker 2: of talk from Labor MPs saying, what my reading of
- 29:54Speaker 2: it is here he is aren't adult enough to debate
- 29:57Speaker 2: in an issue like this. Is that a bit condescending?
- 30:01Speaker 9: Well, it's not just labor MPs who are saying that
- 30:04Speaker 9: they that there should be no debate. You've just had
- 30:07Speaker 9: four hundred Christian leaders who have come out and said
- 30:10Speaker 9: that the whole bill is a total waste of time.
- 30:13Speaker 2: So the public can't be trusted.
- 30:16Speaker 9: Well, sorry, who's saying the public can't be trusted?
- 30:19Speaker 2: Well you are. You're saying we're not adult enough to
- 30:23Speaker 2: have a.
- 30:24Speaker 9: I'm saying no, No. What I'm saying, mate, is that
- 30:27Speaker 9: I think we've got a dishonest politician and dishonest party
- 30:31Speaker 9: who should know better. You know, the treaty has been
- 30:35Speaker 9: clearly entrenched in terms of New Zealand history. The articles
- 30:40Speaker 9: of the treaty have been recognized by the top judges
- 30:43Speaker 9: of this nation and the top leaders of this nation
- 30:45Speaker 9: on either side, and we should just continue along this track.
- 30:48Speaker 9: Totally trying to upset the apple card, and I think
- 30:51Speaker 9: it's disgraceful.
- 30:52Speaker 2: But this bills about the principles, not the articles.
- 30:54Speaker 9: Right, Well, it's about it's about the principles. Obviously, it's
- 30:58Speaker 9: about the principles, but they've been derived from the articles.
- 31:03Speaker 9: The principles have been derived from the articles. The judges
- 31:06Speaker 9: and New Zealand politicians have recognized the principles or may
- 31:12Speaker 9: have been in tru since nineteen eighty seven. Yes, that's correct.
- 31:15Speaker 9: So it's really important that we continue along this trek.
- 31:19Speaker 9: He's just trying to upset the apple cart, and he
- 31:23Speaker 9: keeps making out that Mary's are not anything special in
- 31:26Speaker 9: our history, has got nothing to do with what's happening today.
- 31:29Speaker 9: The reality is Mary have been tracking backwards for many,
- 31:32Speaker 9: many years, and recognizing the principles has given Mary opportunity
- 31:38Speaker 9: in terms of the treaty settlement's process rhyme. In terms
- 31:41Speaker 9: of Mardi television. Maori broadcasting Marti Radio. It's given Mary
- 31:46Speaker 9: an opportunity to get back in terms of equity, and
- 31:49Speaker 9: governments have recognized that.
- 31:52Speaker 2: Are you proud of your record? I mean, would we
- 31:54Speaker 2: be here today if you guys didn't misstep on co
- 31:57Speaker 2: governance as Chippy said you did? Are you disappointed? Are
- 32:01Speaker 2: you disappointed in not seem or but in yourself? Will
- 32:04Speaker 2: you No, I'm.
- 32:06Speaker 9: Actually disappointed in you because because we need broadcasters like you,
- 32:11Speaker 9: you know, who understand what we were trying to do
- 32:14Speaker 9: over six years, and we got more change for Maudi
- 32:17Speaker 9: than any other government in history. I think you'd recognize that.
- 32:21Speaker 9: Your mate who's following you recognizes anything's we've got too
- 32:24Speaker 9: much change almost the Hoskins, there's just that. There's just
- 32:28Speaker 9: a reality. But what should he does say is we
- 32:31Speaker 9: could have taken the public a bit better with us.
- 32:33Speaker 9: And I say that that might well be right. But
- 32:36Speaker 9: I'm proud of a co governance. I'm proud of much
- 32:40Speaker 9: atin me. I'm proud of Mutticky Day, the holiday that
- 32:43Speaker 9: is for all New Zealanders. And I think we just
- 32:46Speaker 9: got so much change over six years that a lot
- 32:50Speaker 9: of key we should be proud of that. This is
- 32:51Speaker 9: about partnership. It's not about marriage wanting to do stuff
- 32:55Speaker 9: on their own. I want to partner up with you
- 32:57Speaker 9: and Mike costumes and enjoy mutatially day.
- 33:00Speaker 13: You know what.
- 33:00Speaker 9: I want to go out together, beg. There's an invitation
- 33:03Speaker 9: to the zb hih, so you go.
- 33:05Speaker 2: Right, all right, I'll take you up on that, Willia.
