Speaker 3: exact same spot. Hopefully it goes as well for President

1:55
Speaker 5: I love you, I love.

Speaker 2: You all, and you will love Coverage the side. Afternoon,
2:00
Speaker 2: I'll be hosting Insid heralds America Decides Live election special
2:04
Speaker 2: from four pm. You can live stream it on YouTube,
2:07
Speaker 2: on Facebook through the Inzied Herald website. We'll be speaking
2:11
Speaker 2: to the former Ambassador and Trade Minister Tim Grosser, as
2:14
Speaker 2: well as Trade negotiated Charles Finney. Start your controversy clock.
2:18
Speaker 2: The Treaty Principals Bill is being brought forward. It'll be
2:21
Speaker 2: put before the House tomorrow. That's Thursday. It was meant
2:23
Speaker 2: to be next later in the month, the sooner they
2:26
Speaker 2: can get this thing over with. The better acts scored
2:28
Speaker 2: the debate fair and square, fear enough, but none of
2:31
Speaker 2: his mates really want to be having it. They may
2:33
Speaker 2: be wanting to rip the band aid off quick smart,
2:35
Speaker 2: I'd say on this one. The heartiest of union strikes
2:40
Speaker 2: is finally over, the majority of the thirty thousand union
2:43
Speaker 2: workers that Boeing have voted in favor of a new deal.
2:46
Speaker 6: Tonight, our membership voted to accept this contract by fifty
2:49
Speaker 6: nine percent. You know it's time for It's time for
2:57
Speaker 6: us to come together. This is a victory.
3:00
Speaker 2: Certainly is thirty eight percent pay rise over the next
3:02
Speaker 2: four years, a one off twenty thousand dollars New Zealand payment,
3:07
Speaker 2: and an enhanced retirement plan workers had previously voted down
3:10
Speaker 2: to earlier offers. We've spoken about those for months now.
3:13
Speaker 2: Bowings shares rose one point nine percent in early trading
3:16
Speaker 2: following the announcement.
3:19
Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge new for twenty twenty four on early edition
3:23
Speaker 1: with Smith City, New Zealand's furniture, beds and a playing store.
3:26
Speaker 2: Newstalk side look at Trump's to lose today, isn't it
3:29
Speaker 2: textbook politics will tell you that economics rules the roost.
3:34
Speaker 2: Prices are high, you know, the people aren't feeling good
3:37
Speaker 2: about the economy. There's border leakage, so it should be
3:43
Speaker 2: fertile ground to turf out the incumbent and get rid
3:46
Speaker 2: of you know, Harris, who's attached to Biden and hasn't
3:49
Speaker 2: really been able to separate herself from that. They've also
3:53
Speaker 2: had a leadership change on the other side. That's never
3:55
Speaker 2: good for stability. However, there is the issue of women
4:00
Speaker 2: and reproductive rights, and two years ago when they overturned
4:04
Speaker 2: Roe v. Wade, well, that set the cadamarks the pigeons,
4:08
Speaker 2: and that could be the factor that would get Harris
4:11
Speaker 2: across the line. We spoke to a polster this morning
4:13
Speaker 2: who we're having on the show tomorrow, and I said
4:15
Speaker 2: to Leo, just ask him who's going to win and
4:18
Speaker 2: he said a fifty point one percent chance that Trump
4:21
Speaker 2: will win at the moment. Interesting this morning looking at
4:24
Speaker 2: the markets and how they're reacting because they're not just
4:26
Speaker 2: looking at who will be president. They're also looking at
4:29
Speaker 2: one when will the race be decided? That's crucial. They
4:33
Speaker 2: don't like uncertainty. Two will the results be contested. They
4:37
Speaker 2: hate the uncertainty of results being contested and also more crucially,
4:41
Speaker 2: who controls the House in the Senate. Will the new president,
4:45
Speaker 2: because it will be a new president either way, will
4:47
Speaker 2: the new president actually be able to get stuff through
4:51
Speaker 2: or will there just be a big giant handbrake. Interesting
4:53
Speaker 2: also looking at the pundits and the you know you
4:57
Speaker 2: can bet bet on the elections as Americans head to
5:01
Speaker 2: the polls. This has just come out. Prices on four
5:03
Speaker 2: betting platforms all point to an electoral victory for President
5:07
Speaker 2: Donald Trump. Prices on predict It. We talked about this
5:11
Speaker 2: the other day, which in recent days suggested Kamala Harris
5:14
Speaker 2: had the better chance of winning. They have now flipped
5:16
Speaker 2: back to Donald Trump's favor. So there you go, big
5:20
Speaker 2: day ahead. And as I said, we're going to check
5:22
Speaker 2: into Washington, DC next to our reporter is going to
5:25
Speaker 2: Karmla Harris's party tomorrow night or tonight? What time is it, Yeah, tonight,
5:30
Speaker 2: our time. He's going there tonight. So we'll speak to
5:33
Speaker 2: him in just a few moments.
5:35
Speaker 1: Bryan Bridge, Good morning to him.
5:45
Speaker 2: Viva, who says Ryan, I think I'll switch off the
5:48
Speaker 2: news today and watch reruns of Coronation Street fair enough.
5:52
Speaker 2: I mean some people will hate this, completely hate this.
5:56
Speaker 2: I find it utterly fascinating. Hey, very quickly, the Irish
5:59
Speaker 2: Prime has called, well, it's about to call an election,
6:03
Speaker 2: and I found this live cross from the Irish reporter
6:06
Speaker 2: over in Dublin quite entertaining. When is he going to
6:09
Speaker 2: call the election? While they've figured out as a schedule
6:11
Speaker 2: and I'll tell you.
6:12
Speaker 7: We expect that poll annonswer to be at some time
6:14
Speaker 7: on Thursday, because the doll schedule is pretty heavy on Tuesday,
6:17
Speaker 7: it's pretty heavy on Wednesday. There is very light on Thursday.
6:20
Speaker 7: And Simon Harris is due in Budapest for a European
6:23
Speaker 7: Council meeting as Summit of EU leaders on Friday, so
6:25
Speaker 7: we expect that Thursday will be the day that is called.
6:28
Speaker 2: It's busy on Tuesday, Wednesday, it's quite late on Thursday.
6:33
Speaker 2: Away on a trip on Friday, so I'd say it'll
6:35
Speaker 2: be then. After five year on News Talks, he'd be.
6:46
Speaker 1: The first word on the News of the day early
6:49
Speaker 1: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City New Zealand's Furniture
6:53
Speaker 1: Bits and applying store News Talk Sippy.
6:56
Speaker 2: Bring excellent news on the global dury trade auction front
6:59
Speaker 2: over nights point are sorry up four point eight percent overall,
7:03
Speaker 2: butter up eight point three percent. Cheed to cheese this
7:06
Speaker 2: is about forty percent of our cheese exports, so it's
7:08
Speaker 2: a big one. Cheedd to cheese up four percent overnight,
7:12
Speaker 2: and mozzarella up point nine percent. That's about eighteen percent
7:15
Speaker 2: of our cheese exports. So that's a good number. Two, well,
7:17
Speaker 2: at least it's positive. And by far and away the
7:20
Speaker 2: most important number you need to hear about is milk powder.
7:22
Speaker 2: Whole milk powder is up four point four percent. That
7:25
Speaker 2: is a good jump. Skim milk powder is four percent.
7:28
Speaker 2: That's our largest export commodity. It's fourteen percent of our total.
7:31
Speaker 2: So those numbers are good news. This morning, quarter past five,
7:35
Speaker 2: bread Rich. We're going to talk to Nick Toughly asb
7:38
Speaker 2: economist about unemployment numbers in just a second, But first
7:41
Speaker 2: we are heading to the United States to Washington, DC.
7:43
Speaker 2: Nick Harper is an FSN correspondent with US Live this morning.
7:47
Speaker 2: As America goes to the polls, We've had the ohighest
7:51
Speaker 2: senator and running Trumps running mate jd Vance vote already
7:53
Speaker 2: in Ohio, and Nick is with US Live. Nick, Good morning,
7:58
Speaker 2: Good morning, Ryan. Tell me what were exactly are the
8:00
Speaker 2: candidates at the moment and when are we expecting them
8:03
Speaker 2: to vote?
8:05
Speaker 8: Well, they're all spread out around the country, essentially voting
8:07
Speaker 8: where they are stationed. So we've had JD. Van's voting
8:11
Speaker 8: in Ohio. Donald Trump is due up in Florida anytime soon.
8:14
Speaker 8: Kamala Harris is here in Washington, d C. Where she's
8:17
Speaker 8: going to remain for the day, and Tim Wiltz is
8:19
Speaker 8: over in Minnesota. So scattered across the country coming together
8:23
Speaker 8: later on. But we have had more than eighty two
8:27
Speaker 8: million Americans vote early ahead of election day. That's about
8:30
Speaker 8: a third of all eligible voters. And now we are
8:33
Speaker 8: hearing long lines at multiple polling stations right across the country.
8:38
Speaker 2: Why DC, Why is Harrison d C.
8:42
Speaker 8: Well, there were some options where she could potentially go
8:45
Speaker 8: California as her home state, but here really has been
8:49
Speaker 8: her home for the last three and a half four
8:51
Speaker 8: years as vice president. But it really is looking ahead
8:55
Speaker 8: to this evening where she has decided to hold her
8:57
Speaker 8: election night event, choosing Howard University at alma matera where
9:03
Speaker 8: she went. It's the historically at black university here in
9:06
Speaker 8: the heart of Washington, DC, and of course that racial
9:10
Speaker 8: element has been central to her campaign. She is hoping
9:13
Speaker 8: that she has people of color rallying behind her, as
9:16
Speaker 8: they often do behind Democrats, but she is hoping that
9:19
Speaker 8: that will happen this evening at a time when she
9:22
Speaker 8: is hoping that she could become not just the first
9:25
Speaker 8: female president, but the first black female president of the
9:29
Speaker 8: United States.
9:30
Speaker 2: If things get a bit topsy turvy, if things aren't
9:33
Speaker 2: going well for Trump tonight, what are the contingency plans?
9:37
Speaker 2: And is that part of the reason that she's in
9:39
Speaker 2: DC because she wants to be seen to be in
9:42
Speaker 2: control of that particular location.
9:47
Speaker 8: Well, potentially, yes, I mean, there is some thinking that
9:49
Speaker 8: Donald Trump will decide to call a win for him early,
9:54
Speaker 8: no matter what is happening, even if the polls are
9:57
Speaker 8: not suggesting or even if there are not enough votes
9:59
Speaker 8: in that he has won. There is that concern that
10:02
Speaker 8: he may go ahead with that, and that would obviously
10:05
Speaker 8: so confusion, misinformation, and prompt lawsuits if he were to
10:09
Speaker 8: actually go ahead and lose, And he could therefore suggest,
10:13
Speaker 8: as he did back in twenty twenty, that the vote
10:15
Speaker 8: was rigged against him. So Kamala Harris, I guess is
10:17
Speaker 8: trying to distance herself from that. We've already heard accusations
10:21
Speaker 8: of vote rigging in the last couple of days from
10:22
Speaker 8: Donald Trump, and she has tried to push back against that.
10:26
Speaker 8: The hope is that things will run smoothly, but there
10:28
Speaker 8: is a real potential that it could take several days
10:31
Speaker 8: for all of this to come out in the wash
10:33
Speaker 8: and for us to actually find out who is the
10:35
Speaker 8: eventual winner of the election.
10:36
Speaker 2: There's also, of course the race for the House and
10:40
Speaker 2: for the Senate.
10:41
Speaker 8: Any picks there, well, it is going to be incredibly tight,
10:47
Speaker 8: and again that is something that we may not know
10:49
Speaker 8: for some time. The House in particular, just because of
10:52
Speaker 8: the closeness of some of those races across the country,
10:55
Speaker 8: there is some thinking that it might not be known
10:57
Speaker 8: who has control of the House until after we find
11:01
Speaker 8: out who has become the president. I mean, it is
11:04
Speaker 8: being spoken about as the closest race in recent history,
11:07
Speaker 8: not just for the president, but also for control of
11:10
Speaker 8: the two chambers of conqurest.
11:11
Speaker 2: Nick, thanks very much for your time this morning, Nick Harbor.
11:13
Speaker 2: If it's in correspondent in Washington, d C. It is
11:16
Speaker 2: nineteen minutes after five the unemployment numbers for quarter three
11:19
Speaker 2: out this morning talk about their next.
11:22
Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines. Ryan Bridge you for twenty
11:25
Speaker 1: twenty four on early edition with Smith City, New Zealand's
11:29
Speaker 1: furniture bids and applying store news Talk said.
11:32
Speaker 2: B twenty one minutes after five year on news Talk
11:34
Speaker 2: said be a text here from John says Hi, Ryan,
11:37
Speaker 2: I'm also totally over the US elections. Elephants have quicker
11:41
Speaker 2: pregnancies in the outcome won effects in New Zealand much John,
11:44
Speaker 2: Thank you for your message. Can I just point out
11:47
Speaker 2: that New Zealand's second largest export market now is the
11:51
Speaker 2: United States of America over to Australia last year, so
11:53
Speaker 2: we do care about what they're doing. And if they're
11:56
Speaker 2: putting a twenty percent tariff on our METex we are
12:00
Speaker 2: Meatia exports that are going up to the United States.
12:02
Speaker 2: That is significant. If you're an American going into a
12:05
Speaker 2: supermarket to buy some meat or you're going to arrest
12:07
Speaker 2: your as owner restaurant. You're buying meat and there's a
12:10
Speaker 2: twenty percent tarify on an already premium product during a
12:13
Speaker 2: cost of living crisis, are you going to buy it?
12:15
Speaker 2: That could affect US. Also, the trade war that Trump's
12:19
Speaker 2: talking about with China, they reckon could shave point eight percent,
12:23
Speaker 2: point eight percent off global GDP this when we're expecting
12:27
Speaker 2: growth of just three and a half percent. I mean,
12:29
Speaker 2: that's significant, So I think we should care. I mean,
12:33
Speaker 2: I know what you mean. It gets boring when people
12:35
Speaker 2: talk about it all the time, but I think it
12:37
Speaker 2: is important still. Twenty two after five, Ryan Bridge also
12:40
Speaker 2: employment the important, I should say. The unemployment numbers out
12:43
Speaker 2: this morning for quarter three, currently sitting at four point
12:45
Speaker 2: six percent, but most economists expecting it to rise to
12:48
Speaker 2: five percent, which would make it the highest since twenty twenty.
12:52
Speaker 2: We also have new household living cost numbers out yesterday,
12:54
Speaker 2: which we'll talk about shortly. Nick Touughley is the chief
12:57
Speaker 2: economist at ASB Bank. Nick, Good morning, Good morning, Great
13:01
Speaker 2: to have you on the show. So what do you reckon?
13:04
Speaker 2: What's the number we're looking for today?
13:07
Speaker 9: We do think we're going to see employment itself look
13:10
Speaker 9: less resilient than what it has been and actually fall
13:13
Speaker 9: about half a percent over this quarter. Now it may
13:15
Speaker 9: surprise you, but so far during this downturn, employments actually
13:19
Speaker 9: held up and kept growing even if it slowed to
13:22
Speaker 9: a core, but things look like they have changed, and
13:25
Speaker 9: as a result, we're expecting a more noticeable jump and
13:28
Speaker 9: unemployment around five point one percent, and there is a
13:31
Speaker 9: banks expecting something closer to that, around five percent as well.
13:36
Speaker 2: Does that where do you expect it to peak? Because
13:38
Speaker 2: it was talking mid next year it'd be five point
13:40
Speaker 2: five percent. Now I'm hearing some people say six.
13:44
Speaker 9: We're expecting it all peak a bit over five and
13:46
Speaker 9: a half percent, but somewhere around that five and a
13:49
Speaker 9: half six percent range looks about reasonable at this point.
13:53
Speaker 9: That would still mean it's a lower peak than what
13:56
Speaker 9: we saw after the global financial crisis, when it was
13:58
Speaker 9: about six and a half percent and we saw much
14:01
Speaker 9: larger outright declines and employment.
14:04
Speaker 2: Okay, so things will still get worse. This is not
14:07
Speaker 2: our worst number today.
14:09
Speaker 9: This probably hopefully this will be the last of a
14:13
Speaker 9: big four. We do think though that employment does risk
14:17
Speaker 9: declining towards the end of this year, and we do
14:20
Speaker 9: have a likely contraction and GDP to come through. But
14:23
Speaker 9: this is starting to look in the rear vision mirror,
14:26
Speaker 9: and as we're heading into twenty twenty five, we do
14:28
Speaker 9: think we'll see growth starting to pick up so those
14:31
Speaker 9: green shoots that people have been talking about should be
14:34
Speaker 9: starting to become noticeable.
14:35
Speaker 2: All right? What number does the Reserve Bank need? They
14:38
Speaker 2: were predicting five percent for unemployment today? Would you know
14:43
Speaker 2: five percent mean? And I know it's not the simple
14:46
Speaker 2: I'll caveat that nick. But would five percent mean of
14:48
Speaker 2: fifty basis points? You know? Would more than five percent
14:51
Speaker 2: mean more likely seventy five? Would less than five percent
14:54
Speaker 2: mean twenty five?
14:57
Speaker 9: I think if it's somewhere around five percent, give or tape,
15:00
Speaker 9: the Reserve Bank should continue to move at a fifty
15:03
Speaker 9: point pace at this next meeting. There's a lot of
15:07
Speaker 9: stuff in there. There's also what's happening with the wage growth,
15:10
Speaker 9: what is happening with employment itself? That will matter as well.
15:13
Speaker 9: But I think we're going to need to see substantially
15:16
Speaker 9: weaker figures. And when I'm saying I'm not, you know,
15:19
Speaker 9: you're talking about some quite material misses compared to what
15:21
Speaker 9: reserve banks expecting for them to move by a larger amount.
15:26
Speaker 9: Never say never, but I think the Reserve Bank would
15:29
Speaker 9: be I think fairly comfortable move by fifty basis points
15:33
Speaker 9: and then slow things down of it next year.
15:35
Speaker 2: All right, Nick, thank you very much for that. We'll
15:37
Speaker 2: look at the wage growth numbers shortly. Nick Tuffley, chief
15:39
Speaker 2: economist at ASP Bank. You're on News Talk ZB. It's
15:41
Speaker 2: Wednesday morning, the early edition Full The Show podcast on
15:46
Speaker 2: iHeartRadio powered by News TALKSB News Talk ZBB. Trying to
15:52
Speaker 2: control kid criminals. You are damned if you do and
15:55
Speaker 2: damned if you don't. This week a document from Children's
15:58
Speaker 2: Minister Karen Shaw on the subject leaked. It says giving
16:01
Speaker 2: military style boot camp providers the power to use force
16:05
Speaker 2: and extreme circumstances would be controversial. Well, of course it would,
16:09
Speaker 2: But what are you meant to do? Let the kids
16:11
Speaker 2: punch each other and not intervene, Let them run on
16:14
Speaker 2: the road, let them escape and just wave goodbye as
16:17
Speaker 2: they leave. Oh, he's nearly killing the other kid. Well, remember,
16:21
Speaker 2: we can't actually do anything, so we'll just watch it happen.
16:23
Speaker 2: How can you run a boot camp without the last
16:25
Speaker 2: resort right to intervene and restrain where necessary? At Arwiti waitts,
16:32
Speaker 2: he says, it's disgusting and unacceptable and I can understand
16:35
Speaker 2: why it. Darwiti's worked up on this one. The abuse
16:38
Speaker 2: and State care inquiries showed the worst that can happen.
16:40
Speaker 2: It was disgusting and disgraceful what went on. But does
16:43
Speaker 2: that mean that we can never use programs to rehabilitate
16:47
Speaker 2: these younger serious offenders ever again? And where does that
16:50
Speaker 2: leave them? In adult jails or they don't like that,
16:53
Speaker 2: and youth detention centers they don't like that either. Plus
16:56
Speaker 2: they escape from these things pretty regularly. At home, well
17:01
Speaker 2: they were, but they committed serious crimes repeatedly. So where
17:07
Speaker 2: does that leave the kids and the governments tasked with
17:11
Speaker 2: trying to sort them out? Well, between a rock and
17:16
Speaker 2: a hard place with an impossible job on their hands.
17:18
Speaker 2: That's where twenty nine after five, Ryan Bridge, We're going
17:22
Speaker 2: back to the States. Just before six this morning, We're
17:25
Speaker 2: speaking to Biden's money man. He was the treasurer for
17:28
Speaker 2: the Democrats, tasked with getting all those donations. And Carmena
17:32
Speaker 2: Harris has pulled in a billion bucks since she took
17:36
Speaker 2: over at the top of the ticket. You're on News Talk, said.
17:39
Speaker 1: B on your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early edition
17:45
Speaker 1: with Ryan Bridge and Smith's City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds
17:48
Speaker 1: and a plying store.
17:50
Speaker 2: News Talk, said B. Good morning, New zeal twenty four
18:00
Speaker 2: minutes away from six. It is polling down in the
18:02
Speaker 2: United States. We've got a small resultant from one tiny
18:06
Speaker 2: little town with six voters. I'll tell you about that
18:09
Speaker 2: in just a few seconds. Plus, we're live to New
18:11
Speaker 2: York City. Bill Dera is his name. He's a former
18:14
Speaker 2: DNC treasurer, basically Biden's money man for three years. What's
18:19
Speaker 2: his take on Harris's chances. We'll do that before six plus.
18:22
Speaker 2: Gavin Gray in the UK right now though, a study
18:26
Speaker 2: out of Japan which is quite concerning for the Japanese
18:30
Speaker 2: but probably for young people more generally. They did a
18:33
Speaker 2: survey and they do it every six years about how
18:36
Speaker 2: many young people are kissing and having relations with one another.
18:43
Speaker 2: And they've found that eighty percent of high school students
18:47
Speaker 2: in Japan, so that's fifteen to eighteen year olds. They
18:50
Speaker 2: were asking eighty percent have never been kissed before the
18:55
Speaker 2: age of eighteen, never been kissed. In two thousand and
18:58
Speaker 2: five it was fifty percent, about about half of them
19:00
Speaker 2: and had had a smooch before they went off to
19:03
Speaker 2: university or into the workforce whatever. Now just twenty percent
19:08
Speaker 2: of people under the age of eighteen or between at
19:10
Speaker 2: fifteen and eighteen, have actually ever had the experience of
19:13
Speaker 2: a kiss? Why COVID? Of course it's COVID because everyone
19:18
Speaker 2: was wearing a mask, and so no one kisses anymore.
19:21
Speaker 2: We don't look at each other in the eye, we
19:22
Speaker 2: don't kiss one another. We put masks on and we
19:26
Speaker 2: just talk like robots. And then when something goes wrong
19:29
Speaker 2: in our lives, we get a baseball bat and we
19:31
Speaker 2: go and smash a public bus. You know, that's the
19:35
Speaker 2: world we're living in. Good Morning twenty two away from
19:38
Speaker 2: six our reporters around the country, Color Practice and Tonedin, Hey, Calum,
19:43
Speaker 2: we talked a lot about this fashion show for suicide awareness.
19:46
Speaker 2: How did it go?
19:48
Speaker 10: Look it ended up being a big win for the
19:51
Speaker 10: charity that was at the center of this event. Ryan
19:55
Speaker 10: An alcohol license was in the end granted for this
20:00
Speaker 10: show after being opposed by police due to the known
20:02
Speaker 10: link between suicide and alcohol. Then we had Mike King
20:06
Speaker 10: causing a stir disagreeing with police. He said alcohol's a
20:08
Speaker 10: solution for mental health and can help stop negative thoughts.
20:12
Speaker 10: The show organizers tell us the event was a success
20:15
Speaker 10: that raised at least three thousand dollars for Dunedin's Life
20:17
Speaker 10: Matters Suicide Prevention Trust and they say they're already looking
20:20
Speaker 10: forward to doing it again next year.
20:22
Speaker 2: Brilliant. How's the weather good today?
20:25
Speaker 10: Fine patches of morning and evening cloud light, winds and seventeen.
20:28
Speaker 2: Today A nice one. Thank you Claire in Christ this
20:30
Speaker 2: morning clear, good morning to you. This gastro outbreak which
20:35
Speaker 2: is so hard to read about, I'm just going to
20:38
Speaker 2: listen carefully to how you describe it. But they think
20:41
Speaker 2: it might have been what chicken.
20:43
Speaker 11: Good morning, Ryan, Yes, shredded chicken eating at the university's
20:48
Speaker 11: Halls of Residence on Sunday night seems to be the
20:51
Speaker 11: blame for this gastro outbreak. It's impacted hundreds of students
20:54
Speaker 11: at what is a very crucial exam time for them.
20:57
Speaker 11: Some of the stories from the Halls of Residents have
21:00
Speaker 11: been horrendous. We're hearing of lines to use bathrooms at
21:03
Speaker 11: four am, some students resorting to being sick out of
21:06
Speaker 11: their windows because there was apparently nowhere else to do it.
21:09
Speaker 11: Now Inzed Food Safety has been working with an assumption
21:12
Speaker 11: that it may have been this shredded chicken. They say
21:15
Speaker 11: that's based off the eleven hours it took from when
21:18
Speaker 11: the food was eaten and symptoms appeared.
21:20
Speaker 8: Now.
21:20
Speaker 11: Vincent Arbuckle says that's consistent with unsafe handling practices around
21:25
Speaker 11: cooling and reheating food, or specifically meat. He says if
21:29
Speaker 11: the issue was uncooked meat, for example, they'd expect to
21:33
Speaker 11: see a different incubation period, more like two to five days.
21:36
Speaker 2: Have you ever seen the movie Bridesmaids. That's that scene
21:40
Speaker 2: where they all get in these beautiful gowns and including
21:43
Speaker 2: the bride in the white dress. They've had a bad
21:46
Speaker 2: Mexican and before I remember, I'm just picturing that. But
21:51
Speaker 2: on for an entire hall of residence. How's the weather today?
21:54
Speaker 11: The hello, clouds breaking to fine this morning, returning this
21:57
Speaker 11: evening with a bit of drizzle, northeasterlies and making a
22:00
Speaker 11: way to eighteen.
22:01
Speaker 2: That's right. People need their own bathrooms, don't they. I
22:04
Speaker 2: mean that should be a basic human right. Clear. Thank
22:07
Speaker 2: you Mexis and Wellington Max. This is good news. Eight
22:10
Speaker 2: billion dollars for a long tunnel. Oh sorry, this idea
22:15
Speaker 2: has been scrapped, but there is news in terms of
22:17
Speaker 2: two new tunnels coming right.
22:19
Speaker 12: Yeah, sorry, perhaps I confuse you a little with that
22:21
Speaker 12: throw line.
22:23
Speaker 13: No.
22:23
Speaker 12: Eight billion was the eventual cost estimate for you know,
22:27
Speaker 12: for a time senior national figures were hyping the idea
22:30
Speaker 12: of a long tunnel from up on the terraces down
22:33
Speaker 12: into Kill Bernie. At one point six million dollars spent
22:37
Speaker 12: consulting on the idea. Everyone seemed fairly keen on it. Obviously,
22:41
Speaker 12: that eight billion dollar price tag has alienated them because
22:45
Speaker 12: they're not going to do that. They're going to build
22:47
Speaker 12: a second Mount Vict tunnel now, and a smaller one
22:51
Speaker 12: up around the terrace as well. This will make it easier,
22:55
Speaker 12: of course to get to and from the airport, the
22:56
Speaker 12: peninsula that build up, you get around Vivian Streets and
22:59
Speaker 12: the Iris Tunnel. Hopefully that'll dissipate. The government campaigned on
23:04
Speaker 12: starting construction on a second Amount Vic tunnel in their
23:07
Speaker 12: first term. They say they're going to do their best
23:10
Speaker 12: on that. The latest cost estimate for this newly announced
23:13
Speaker 12: work was just over two billion dollars. That was last year,
23:17
Speaker 12: might be slightly more now, but yeah, good news for Wellington.
23:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, it certainly is. And I think they're going to
23:23
Speaker 2: get the cost and stuff done by midway through next year,
23:25
Speaker 2: so it'll be a long time before we actually see
23:27
Speaker 2: any digging. I imagine, how's you wear the max.
23:30
Speaker 12: Some early rain this morning should be easing around midday,
23:34
Speaker 12: cloudy this afternoon eighteen the high in the city.
23:36
Speaker 2: Have a great day, Neva's and ok, hey, Neva hello.
23:39
Speaker 14: I was traumatized with that over the last couple of days,
23:41
Speaker 14: with that christ touch. That Guestro story awful because I
23:45
Speaker 14: have seen that movie, you know, Bride'smaids, and I was thinking,
23:48
Speaker 14: if that was that's my worst nightmare. I would have
23:51
Speaker 14: to and I know students support they don't have money.
23:53
Speaker 14: I'd ring my parents and say, hey, put me up
23:57
Speaker 14: in a hotel because your own bathroom. I even heard
24:01
Speaker 14: someone vomiting.
24:02
Speaker 2: I start vomiting.
24:03
Speaker 14: No, no, no, no, thank you.
24:05
Speaker 2: The whole owing to a yoga retreat once in China,
24:08
Speaker 2: and they had this food that was quite. It was
24:11
Speaker 2: a bit and I was sharing a room with my
24:14
Speaker 2: friend Augusta in we were doing this yoga thing. I
24:17
Speaker 2: don't know why. I didn't even know why we were
24:18
Speaker 2: doing even like yogi. No, I don't even like anyway
24:22
Speaker 2: before you're not well because they've got those holes in
24:24
Speaker 2: the ground for toilets. Oh yeah, and they didn't really flush. Anyway,
24:28
Speaker 2: we all got sick, sharing a room, a hole in
24:32
Speaker 2: the fall. That's anyway.
24:40
Speaker 14: The only other thing I've got to say too, Because
24:41
Speaker 14: did you tell the nation that you won the Melbourne Cup?
24:45
Speaker 2: Sweet steak the office?
24:46
Speaker 7: Sweet steak?
24:47
Speaker 2: How much do I get? One hundred and ninety dollars?
24:49
Speaker 14: One hundred and ninety dollars?
24:51
Speaker 8: You're rich?
24:51
Speaker 1: What are you going to do?
24:52
Speaker 11: Hey?
24:53
Speaker 14: Are you gonna buy a chicken meal or something like that?
24:56
Speaker 2: Chicken? Hey, we're going.

26:01
Speaker 1: INZID International correspondents with insid Eye Insurance Peace of mind
26:06
Speaker 1: for New Zealand business.
26:08
Speaker 2: Think the sex on You talked to Big Devin Grins
26:10
Speaker 2: and UK Europe correspondent Gavin what is going on with
26:13
Speaker 2: the Russians and these parcels in career planes.
26:17
Speaker 15: Well, lots of people pointed the finger at Russia for this,
26:20
Speaker 15: Russia denying any responsibility. So over the last of the
26:23
Speaker 15: three or four months now, there have been a number
26:25
Speaker 15: of parcels that have effectively caught far and these parcels
26:30
Speaker 15: have been freight parcels. A lot of them being handled
26:33
Speaker 15: by DHL, the courier company, and it's being said that
26:37
Speaker 15: the courier companies have had fires in Poland, Germany and
26:41
Speaker 15: the UK, and according to Polish prosecutors, they were aimed
26:45
Speaker 15: at really dry runs a rehearsal aimed at sabotaging flights
26:50
Speaker 15: to America and Canada. The Polish prosecutors have revealed that
26:53
Speaker 15: four people have been arrested across Europe and these investigations
26:58
Speaker 15: across different countries are continuing. It is Western security fishers
27:03
Speaker 15: who have told American media that they think these fires,
27:06
Speaker 15: which happened as I said back in July and a
27:08
Speaker 15: couple later, were part of an orchestrated campaign by Russia's
27:12
Speaker 15: military intelligence agency otherwise known as the GRU. Russia denies
27:16
Speaker 15: this responsibility, but many are beginning to point the finger
27:20
Speaker 15: at IT and Moscow having also been behind other attacks
27:24
Speaker 15: on warehouses and railway networks in EU member states this year,
27:28
Speaker 15: including Sweden and the Czech Republic. They believe the Polish
27:32
Speaker 15: prosecutors that a group of foreign intelligence sabotas have been
27:35
Speaker 15: involved in sending parcels containing hidden explosives and dangerous materials
27:40
Speaker 15: for our courier companies. The parcels then spontaneously burst into
27:44
Speaker 15: flames or blew up. Indeed, the one that took fire
27:47
Speaker 15: at Leipzig apparently was shortly about to be delivered onto
27:51
Speaker 15: an aeroplane four or flights, So extremely dangerous and dhl
27:55
Speaker 15: for they and their step up security.
27:58
Speaker 2: All right. In breaking news, Donald Trump currently speaking outside
28:01
Speaker 2: of polling both he's just voted and palmbooted Florida. He
28:04
Speaker 2: says he has no regrets from the campaign and that
28:08
Speaker 2: he ran his very best campaign that he could. Let's
28:12
Speaker 2: go back to Devin Gevin. The Netflix officers in Paris
28:16
Speaker 2: and Amsterdam have been raided. What's happening.
28:19
Speaker 15: Yeah, lots of pe asking questions. Not too many details
28:22
Speaker 15: being revealed, but there are ten million subscribers of Netflix
28:25
Speaker 15: in France. They opened their ten years ago, and the
28:29
Speaker 15: streaming giants' offices in Paris and Amsterdam have been raided, apparently.
28:34
Speaker 15: Officials from both countries cooperating Netflix not making any specific
28:38
Speaker 15: comment about the raids, but they have always insisted, as
28:41
Speaker 15: they do now, that they comply with tax laws wherever
28:44
Speaker 15: they operate. However, the company is apparently under investigation for
28:48
Speaker 15: tax filings in twenty nineteen twenty and twenty twenty one.
28:53
Speaker 15: Netflix apparently is, according to claims, minimizing its tax payments
28:58
Speaker 15: by declaring its turnover is generated in France, by transferring
29:02
Speaker 15: that to the Netherlands and after it aban In this arrangement,
29:06
Speaker 15: it is alleged that the annual tax bill jumped from
29:10
Speaker 15: roughly eighty five million New Zealand dollars to roughly two
29:15
Speaker 15: billion New Zealand dollars in one year, and the investigation
29:19
Speaker 15: is all around their tax affairs. Apparently around that.
29:23
Speaker 2: All right, thanks so much for your time. Gavin Gray,
29:24
Speaker 2: our UK europe correspondent. It is ten to six.
29:27
Speaker 1: Bryan Bridge.
29:28
Speaker 2: Donald Trump has just cast his vote in Palm Beach, Florida.
29:31
Speaker 2: He says the biggest issue in his mind this election
29:34
Speaker 2: was the border We're going to build. Darrow Now he's
29:37
Speaker 2: a former DNC treasurer, a Democrat, and is with us
29:40
Speaker 2: live from New York City. Welcome to the show.
29:44
Speaker 13: Thank you, Good morning in New Zealand.
29:45
Speaker 2: Thank you for being with me. First of all, no
29:48
Speaker 2: matter who wins, how are you feeling about the state
29:51
Speaker 2: of your country right now?
29:57
Speaker 13: Maybe I'll be applying for New Zealand passport. I don't
29:59
Speaker 13: know it is.
30:01
Speaker 3: Uh.
30:02
Speaker 13: It is terrifyingly UH fraught right now. The uh, the
30:08
Speaker 13: tensions are very high, the the rhetoric is is very intense.
30:16
Speaker 13: I think a lot of it has to do with
30:17
Speaker 13: social media from outside the US. But it's, uh, it's
30:22
Speaker 13: it's I've never seen it so divided.
30:26
Speaker 8: Uh in my life.
30:28
Speaker 2: Have the Democrats lost the ability to penetrate and speak
30:31
Speaker 2: to those white middle class, working class voters that they
30:36
Speaker 2: need to get Harris across the line?
30:39
Speaker 13: Well, I do think that Democrats have lost some of
30:44
Speaker 13: the ability to talk to those people. I don't know
30:48
Speaker 13: that that that will result in not getting across the line.
30:53
Speaker 13: I think there's a bunch of different factors happening right now,
30:56
Speaker 13: particularly with women. I'm very optimist stick as a Democrat,
31:01
Speaker 13: that there's sort of a silent majority of women, large majority,
31:06
Speaker 13: who are going to vote for Kamala Harris, not because
31:09
Speaker 13: she's going would be the first female president, but really
31:14
Speaker 13: to stop the other side in the things that they
31:17
Speaker 13: have been doing and saying, you know, with respect to
31:21
Speaker 13: women's reproductive rights, with respect to women's rights in general.
31:25
Speaker 13: I do think we have a lot of work to
31:26
Speaker 13: do with the white working class. My father was a
31:29
Speaker 13: Union carpenter, so I'm very familiar.
31:31
Speaker 8: With that.
31:33
Speaker 13: That world, and I do think having Tim Walls as
31:39
Speaker 13: as vice president will be will be helpful in connecting
31:42
Speaker 13: with people like that.
31:43
Speaker 2: What's happening in You're in New York City right now,
31:45
Speaker 2: what's happening there in terms of protest backlash preparing for
31:48
Speaker 2: that that potential.
31:52
Speaker 13: I think that there is a potential of a Trump
31:55
Speaker 13: winner or a Harris one.
31:57
Speaker 2: Harris win, I think people.
32:02
Speaker 13: In New York in general, I'm there is an interesting
32:06
Speaker 13: divide amongst people who would traditionally be Democratic voters, but
32:09
Speaker 13: if they're Jewish Americans, some of them are taking a
32:13
Speaker 13: different perspective now because it was happening in the Middle East.
32:16
Speaker 13: And I'm going to stay out of that other than
32:18
Speaker 13: to say, I think it's kind of silly on both sides,
32:23
Speaker 13: people who are not going to vote for Harris because
32:27
Speaker 13: they don't think she's strong enough for people on the
32:30
Speaker 13: other side saying she's not doing enough for the Gosins.
32:34
Speaker 13: I'm not saying it's ridiculous in the sense that those
32:36
Speaker 13: are huge issues, but I think clearly Donald Trump would
32:39
Speaker 13: be worse for everybody over there. But I think in
32:44
Speaker 13: New York. A lot of people are nervous about what
32:49
Speaker 13: might happen. That being said, it is predominantly a democratic city,
32:55
Speaker 13: but I wouldn't be surprised if, you know, if Donald
32:58
Speaker 13: Trump tonight is announced the winner in a massive landslide,
33:02
Speaker 13: then I think you will see a bunch of people
33:04
Speaker 13: coming out protesting. Not unlike the women's march you had
33:07
Speaker 13: after the election in twenty sixteen.
33:09
Speaker 2: So potential for protests either way. Bill, thank you very
33:12
Speaker 2: much for being with us here in New Zealand today.
33:13
Speaker 2: Great to have your company. That's Bill dere He's the
33:15
Speaker 2: former DNC treasure It is.
33:18
Speaker 1: Sex to Sex News and views you trust to start
33:21
Speaker 1: your day. It's early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City,
33:25
Speaker 1: New Zealand's furniture beds and a flying store. News Talk said.
33:29
Speaker 2: Be it is four minutes away from six News Talks.
33:31
Speaker 2: It'd be Mike's here next, Mike Big Day today. Very good.
33:34
Speaker 16: I'm I'm most well, I'm not most excited about the presidency,
33:37
Speaker 16: but as we're just talking off here, I'm most interested
33:39
Speaker 16: in the Senate because the senses they could flip that.
33:41
Speaker 16: So if Trump wins and they flipped the Senate's that's
33:44
Speaker 16: that's a trifector.
33:45
Speaker 2: That's all the power in the world.
33:46
Speaker 16: If Harris wins and they flipped the Senate, she's lame
33:49
Speaker 16: duck Henry. So there's actually a lot to play for
33:53
Speaker 16: beyond the presidency today. So these are exciting times, right
33:57
Speaker 16: R and D.
33:58
