0:28
Speaker 2: finger Over the weekend, The Death of the Dairy? Is
0:32
Speaker 2: it really happening? Why is the road told down? Why

0:53
Speaker 2: attorney is taking Elon Musk to court in an attempt
0:56
Speaker 2: to stop his million dollar daily giveaway for registered voters.
1:00
Speaker 2: He reckons it's an illegal and unregulated lottery, saying that
1:04
Speaker 2: all lotteries in Pennsylvania must be run by the state.
1:06
Speaker 2: Only registered voters who live in a swing state are
1:09
Speaker 2: eligible to enter the random draw. So far, two people
1:12
Speaker 2: of one a million bucks political backfire in Japan, the
1:16
Speaker 2: Liberal Democracy Party has lost its majority in a snap
1:19
Speaker 2: election called by the country's new prime minister. The party,
1:22
Speaker 2: along with a coalition partner, won two hundred and fifteen seats,
1:25
Speaker 2: lower than the two hundred and thirty three majority needed
1:28
Speaker 2: to retain power.
1:30
Speaker 3: I think the people of Japan are telling us to
1:33
Speaker 3: reflect on what we have done and change ourselves to
1:37
Speaker 3: better listen to the will of the people.
1:39
Speaker 2: The new prime minister is not resigning, and I'll tell
1:41
Speaker 2: you exactly what happens in a situation like that in
1:44
Speaker 2: Japan where the party doesn't have a majority later in
1:47
Speaker 2: the show. Lawmakers and Israeli voting on two bills today
1:51
Speaker 2: that could see the United Nations Relief Agency restricted inside Israel.
1:57
Speaker 2: If passed, Staff and aid that it proved would no
2:00
Speaker 2: longer be allowed to travel through Israel when heading to
2:03
Speaker 2: other parts of the Middle East. NATO has confirmed North
2:06
Speaker 2: Korean troops have been assisting Russia with its war in Ukraine.
2:11
Speaker 4: North Korean military units have been deployed to the Coursk region.
2:16
Speaker 4: NATO calls from Russia and the de Perochi to seize
2:20
Speaker 4: these actions immediately.
2:22
Speaker 2: Putins spoke about the issue at the Brick Summit. We
2:24
Speaker 2: obviously spoke about it last week, not confirming or denying
2:27
Speaker 2: the use of North Korean troops, but saying it's Russia's
2:30
Speaker 2: sovereign decision if it wants to use them.
2:34
Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge You for twenty forty four on early edition
2:38
Speaker 1: with Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds and a Playing
2:41
Speaker 1: Store News Talk zidby just.
2:43
Speaker 2: Gone eight after five on your Tuesday morning. Immigration officials
2:46
Speaker 2: are deciding whether to let Candice Owens into the country.
2:49
Speaker 2: You might have seen this over the weekend. The Aussies
2:52
Speaker 2: have said nope, we don't want you. Who is she?
2:55
Speaker 2: She's American, she's right wing, She's a broadcaster, has about
2:58
Speaker 2: eighteen million followers on social media apparently, and she has
3:02
Speaker 2: questioned one of the reasons she's so controversial. She has
3:05
Speaker 2: questioned some aspects of the Holocaust, but insists she's not
3:09
Speaker 2: a Holocaust deny. She wants to come here on a
3:13
Speaker 2: speaking to her, She needs a visa. And when the
3:15
Speaker 2: immigration officials consider this, they look at a number of
3:19
Speaker 2: things criminal convictions, good character, their previous deportation history. But
3:25
Speaker 2: they must also determine whether she is a threat to
3:29
Speaker 2: public order. Now, if people protest and go a bit feral,
3:33
Speaker 2: as they did when Posy Parker came here. I remember
3:36
Speaker 2: Posy Parker and people were throwing juice and going nuts.
3:40
Speaker 2: Does that mean that others shouldn't be allowed to hear
3:43
Speaker 2: their views in a democracy, If the threat of the
3:46
Speaker 2: people who don't like you having a bit of a go,
3:51
Speaker 2: having a crack, becoming violent potentially is enough to stop
3:56
Speaker 2: somebody getting a visa, is that fear on those who
3:58
Speaker 2: want to hear their views, no matter how out there, wacky,
4:01
Speaker 2: bizarre those views might be. I won't be going to
4:04
Speaker 2: hear her speak, But should the potential reaction of her
4:07
Speaker 2: detractors really stop her supporters from having that same experience?
4:12
Speaker 2: Nine two the numbers text ten after five, Ryan Bridge,
4:19
Speaker 2: you should have seen this pole this morning in the Hero.
4:22
Speaker 2: It's an ipsoft pole. It's found that apparently sixty five
4:25
Speaker 2: percent of kiw support a capital gains tax in some form,
4:29
Speaker 2: which I mean that's quite the qualifier as an in
4:32
Speaker 2: some form, we essentially have a capital gains tax already
4:36
Speaker 2: on investment properties the bright line test. The pole, however,
4:40
Speaker 2: also says that labor is slowly winning back voters trust
4:45
Speaker 2: on several key issues and closing the gap on national
4:49
Speaker 2: with and others. Thirty percent of voters now think Labor
4:52
Speaker 2: is the party best at dealing with inflation, up from
4:55
Speaker 2: twenty three percent in February. What fallen over the same
5:00
Speaker 2: period from thirty nine percent to thirty five percent? Do
5:04
Speaker 2: we believe this really? Eleven After five News Talk ZIBB.
5:16
Speaker 1: The first word on the News of the Day early
5:19
Speaker 1: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture
5:23
Speaker 1: Beds and a playing Store News Talk ZIBB.
5:26
Speaker 2: People are back to loving their quarter pounders in America.
5:28
Speaker 2: You remember last week we reported on the coli outbreak
5:32
Speaker 2: that killed one person and injured dozens. While they've resumed
5:36
Speaker 2: their sales over the weekend of beef patties the cola
5:39
Speaker 2: was founded in the testing so far has found the
5:42
Speaker 2: results to be negative. There's shares still down seven and
5:46
Speaker 2: a half percent McDonald's in America after the outbreak last
5:50
Speaker 2: week fourteen after.
5:51
Speaker 1: Five Bryan Bridge.
5:53
Speaker 2: Retail advocates say the number of diaries in the country
5:57
Speaker 2: is on the downward trend as supermarkets cantinue to monopolize
6:01
Speaker 2: and retail crime continues the Ministry for Business, Innovation and
6:04
Speaker 2: Employment says there are currently just seventeen hundred registered companies
6:08
Speaker 2: classified as a dairy or a supret and that compares
6:12
Speaker 2: to back in twenty eighteen, Retail New Zealand recording about
6:15
Speaker 2: four thousand dairies and convenience stores around the country. Amory
6:20
Speaker 2: Johnson is with retailing issues with US Live this morning. Amory,
6:22
Speaker 2: good morning, We're in it. Great to have you on
6:25
Speaker 2: the show. First of all, are these numbers actually reliable?
6:30
Speaker 5: Well, it's the piece of research that Retailing Z is
6:33
Speaker 5: about to carry out and update our twenty eighteen figures.
6:36
Speaker 5: But certainly, on the face of it, it seems pretty likely.
6:42
Speaker 5: We know that retail has been doing it tough no
6:45
Speaker 5: matter what sector you're in, and so certainly, just looking
6:49
Speaker 5: around the streets I reckon that. Yeah, we certainly know
6:55
Speaker 5: that a number of dairies have closed.
6:57
Speaker 2: Yeah, And the other thing I was thinking of, supermarkets
7:01
Speaker 2: are cheaper, generally speaking, are cheaper than dairies, and in
7:05
Speaker 2: a cost of living crisis, people are going for the
7:07
Speaker 2: cheaper option.
7:08
Speaker 5: Oh, absolutely, and they always have been. You know, dairies
7:12
Speaker 5: have been great for just being able to pop in
7:14
Speaker 5: and buy those extra a few bits and pieces, but
7:18
Speaker 5: you do pay for the convenience.
7:20
Speaker 2: Does it matter if dairies close? I mean, obviously it's
7:23
Speaker 2: not great for someone like me who loves going there
7:25
Speaker 2: for that reason. I hate going to the car park
7:28
Speaker 2: and the supermarket and driving round and around and going
7:30
Speaker 2: over the juddabars. But apart from that, does it actually
7:34
Speaker 2: matter whether the supermarket retailers are doing well and the
7:39
Speaker 2: deiries aren't.
7:41
Speaker 6: Well?
7:42
Speaker 5: I think it does. I think it does because you know,
7:46
Speaker 5: people do love their dairies. But you know, like you say,
7:49
Speaker 5: people shopping habits have changed, and if we want to
7:53
Speaker 5: keep our dairies open then we need to support them.
7:55
Speaker 5: But certainly dairies are a real focal point in the
7:59
Speaker 5: community there. They're very handy to have.
8:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, they definitely are a convenience thing, I think, Annory,
8:06
Speaker 2: thank you very much for that. Anry Johnson, manager of Advocacy,
8:09
Speaker 2: Advice and Comms at Retail end Z. Great to have
8:12
Speaker 2: you on the program sixteen minutes after five. Does anyone
8:14
Speaker 2: else here if they lose their dairy? Are you? Are
8:18
Speaker 2: you a staunch supporter of your dairy? Do you make
8:21
Speaker 2: a point of going in. I have quite a good
8:24
Speaker 2: relationship with my local dairy, so I you know, I
8:27
Speaker 2: would say we're friendly, and I enjoy going in to
8:29
Speaker 2: have a chat, and I enjoy going in and stopping
8:31
Speaker 2: to pick up some milk or whatever it is, and
8:33
Speaker 2: it is way easier. The other thing that I haven't
8:36
Speaker 2: mentioned is the bike lanes. Cycle lanes which have in
8:41
Speaker 2: some places at least kind of put the kibosh on
8:45
Speaker 2: people stopping and you know, get running into the dairy
8:47
Speaker 2: for five minutes really quickly. Seventeen minutes after five, you're
8:50
Speaker 2: on news Talk sa'd be Andrew Ortison next with Sport.
8:54
Speaker 1: Get ahead of the Headlines, Ryan Bridge, You for twenty
8:57
Speaker 1: twenty four on early edition with a City New Zealand's
9:01
Speaker 1: furniture Beds and a Planet Store.
9:03
Speaker 2: News Talk sa'd be nineteen after five. If you feel
9:05
Speaker 2: like Christmas is getting earlier every single year, what you
9:09
Speaker 2: are describing, what you're thinking about, is Christmas creep. It
9:13
Speaker 2: is creeping up on us earlier and earlier. And the
9:15
Speaker 2: Guardian has done some research to actually confirm this, so
9:19
Speaker 2: they've said that the data supports the belief that Christmas
9:23
Speaker 2: themed merchandise, songs and decorations are all appearing ahead of season,
9:28
Speaker 2: they reckon. There's one Christmas market they looked at in
9:31
Speaker 2: the UK in Birmingham, which starts on the first of November.
9:36
Speaker 2: Used to start the first of December and every year
9:38
Speaker 2: has crept forward ever so slightly. How can you start
9:42
Speaker 2: a Christmas market on the first of November nineteen after
9:45
Speaker 2: five and Bridge, I suppose you can. People go and
9:49
Speaker 2: you sell stuff and want to.
9:50
Speaker 6: Be hearing snoopies Christmas in November.
9:53
Speaker 2: Ryan, not for me hearing that either.
9:55
Speaker 6: Yeah, start of December maybe, yeah.
9:57
Speaker 2: I think you can leave it to December. Apparently the
10:00
Speaker 2: the music used to top the charts in the last
10:02
Speaker 2: two weeks of December and now it's literally starting from
10:07
Speaker 2: mid November, right black Caps in India.
10:11
Speaker 7: Yeah, that was a phenomenal result and I mean it's
10:14
Speaker 7: a few days afterwards now, is it, but worthy of
10:16
Speaker 7: reflection in that I think it's one of New Zealand's
10:19
Speaker 7: most historic cricket feats.
10:22
Speaker 6: For my mind, it's a bit of a holy grail.
10:24
Speaker 7: I mean, to win in India sixty nine years in
10:26
Speaker 7: trying and then to just take a series there just
10:30
Speaker 7: is to medicine and Mitchell Santner hats off. I mean
10:33
Speaker 7: just thirteen wickets in the Test match by far and
10:38
Speaker 7: away his most outstanding performance in the white at least
10:41
Speaker 7: for New Zealand and India. Not beaten in the Test
10:43
Speaker 7: series at home since twenty twelve. No Williamson, no Bolt
10:48
Speaker 7: these days in the side or Williamson's out at the moment,
10:51
Speaker 7: I just thought it was one for the ages.
10:53
Speaker 2: Brilliant. Would it be like someone coming here and beating
10:55
Speaker 2: the All Blacks Adhaton Park or something?
10:57
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, it's a bit like I suppose Ireland coming
11:00
Speaker 7: and winning a series against the All Blacks a few years.
11:02
Speaker 2: Awoll, yes they did. All right, Well, that's great. You're
11:06
Speaker 2: very toughed about this.
11:08
Speaker 7: That's that's a bit of a highlight for US cricket
11:11
Speaker 7: tragics out there.
11:12
Speaker 2: Can I just bring up a point that's been bugging
11:14
Speaker 2: me for the last week please? Last weekend everyone went
11:18
Speaker 2: nuts and said this was the best weekend of New Zealand,
11:21
Speaker 2: of sport for New Zealand ever. Yeah, wasn't that just
11:26
Speaker 2: by chance that there were randomly all these finals we
11:29
Speaker 2: were involved and on the same weekend?
11:31
Speaker 6: Perhaps slight hyperbole right in the circus.
11:34
Speaker 7: There's people, you know, touch this in the in the
11:37
Speaker 7: now or just recency bias is how it's described.
11:41
Speaker 2: It is.
11:42
Speaker 6: It is because they've been plenty over the years. But
11:44
Speaker 6: there was a good one.
11:45
Speaker 2: I know it was good and I don't want to
11:47
Speaker 2: take away.
11:47
Speaker 6: From men or to burst the bubble.
11:48
Speaker 2: No, but just you know, we're not comparing apples with apples.
11:52
Speaker 2: It's not like we did well at the Olympics. That's
11:54
Speaker 2: quite a you unmeasurable finite time with a number of
11:58
Speaker 2: sports and that's you know, you can here year on years.
12:01
Speaker 6: It was just an enjoyable time for sports fans to
12:04
Speaker 6: be engaged. Yeah, across a number of codes.
12:07
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, Liam Lawson, so he's given the middle finger.
12:14
Speaker 7: I thought you probably struck struck a call with a
12:16
Speaker 7: number of motorists there on any road in New Zealand
12:20
Speaker 7: at any given time. I mean, what's your first reaction
12:22
Speaker 7: when you are annoyed? I mean, I don't know. There's
12:24
Speaker 7: a temptation to flip the bird, isn't it.
12:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, there definitely is. Yes, I think you swear first.
12:29
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I was just quite I mean these guys, yeah,
12:33
Speaker 7: you know, and you're going get threehundred k's or whatever,
12:36
Speaker 7: your life slashing before your eyes, even if you're a
12:38
Speaker 7: normal motorist in your life slashing before your eyes.
12:41
Speaker 6: Yeah, there is that temptation, isn't it.
12:43
Speaker 7: Well, you know I'm going to go down here, but yeah,
12:46
Speaker 7: I'm going to flip the bird in the in the process.
12:48
Speaker 2: So is he? Is he? He's doing all right though,
12:50
Speaker 2: isn't he?
12:51
Speaker 8: Yeah?
12:52
Speaker 2: I think so.
12:52
Speaker 7: I mean he's probably offended a few people with with
12:55
Speaker 7: maybe he's been aggressive and he's been forthrighting. Is he's
12:58
Speaker 7: got to push for for holding this Formula one seat
13:03
Speaker 7: and he's going to fight for it, and therefore, yeah,
13:05
Speaker 7: he's some raw reactions probably.
13:07
Speaker 6: What you would expect those in those circumstances.
13:09
Speaker 2: These Silver firms have won their Constellation Cup for the
13:12
Speaker 2: third time in fourteen attempts they have.
13:15
Speaker 7: I caught some of the back end of that. I
13:16
Speaker 7: was astonished actually just how dominant they were over the Diamonds.
13:21
Speaker 7: Given the backstory recent years, Diamonds World champions, et cetera.
13:26
Speaker 7: This team has just turned around. They've lost a series
13:27
Speaker 7: to England, they've turned around, they've won.
13:29
Speaker 6: The Constellation Cup.
13:30
Speaker 9: It was just.
13:32
Speaker 6: Pretty much flaws.
13:33
Speaker 7: I mean, they had they put the Australian goal shooting
13:37
Speaker 7: attack under so much the shooting circle under attack, so
13:41
Speaker 7: much pressure. Grayson Wecky was a star under the hoop,
13:45
Speaker 7: but she was getting such brilliant ball from the mid court.
13:47
Speaker 9: It was just.
13:48
Speaker 7: Flying down their time after time and it was just
13:51
Speaker 7: out and out dominance brilliantly.
13:53
Speaker 2: Yeah, well done.
13:54
Speaker 7: I mean, fourteen, eleven and eighteen goal victories are now
13:57
Speaker 7: potentially a clean sweeper in Melbourne tomorrow.
14:00
Speaker 2: Another great weekend of sport for years, right up there
14:02
Speaker 2: with the would we call it the second best weekend
14:05
Speaker 2: of sport new center Andrew Ortison, will well, just take
14:08
Speaker 2: good sport full stop? All right, sounds good. Twenty four
14:11
Speaker 2: minutes after five, You're on News Talks MB.
14:13
Speaker 1: The early edition full the Show podcast on iHeartRadio. How
14:18
Speaker 1: it by News Talks AB.
14:20
Speaker 2: You're on News TALKSB. It's twenty six after five on
14:23
Speaker 2: your Tuesday morning. And the road toll currently sitting at
14:27
Speaker 2: zero for the long weekend. We are still technically in
14:30
Speaker 2: the road toll period. It ends at six o'clock. Six
14:33
Speaker 2: people died last Labor weekend, which is a tragedy the
14:37
Speaker 2: road toll so far, and we hold out if you're
14:40
Speaker 2: safe on the roads for the next half an hour.
14:42
Speaker 2: It will be the lowest labor weekend toll since twenty
14:45
Speaker 2: thirteen we've had when we had one death on the roads.
14:50
Speaker 2: Why do we think this is? Why do we think
14:52
Speaker 2: this has happened this particular weekend? Is it the road
14:55
Speaker 2: to zero that the previous government introduced, Is that the
14:58
Speaker 2: fact we've had some road upgrades, some potholes fixed potentially,
15:03
Speaker 2: or is it just random stats? You know, we should
15:06
Speaker 2: really be looking at annual averages, not weekend blips which
15:08
Speaker 2: can jump around a bit, A bit like as I
15:11
Speaker 2: was talking to Andrew Ordison about earlier, a bit like
15:14
Speaker 2: our weekend of sport last weekend, which was a bit
15:16
Speaker 2: of a con job. It just so happened we had
15:19
Speaker 2: a bunch of sporting finals on the same weekend. It
15:22
Speaker 2: wasn't like we were, you know, comparing apples with apples
15:25
Speaker 2: like an Olympics tournament, was it?
15:27
Speaker 4: So?
15:27
Speaker 2: Was it one of those situations or and here's my theory.
15:32
Speaker 2: We didn't really travel much this weekend. And this is
15:35
Speaker 2: based on nothing other than my own experience, But I
15:39
Speaker 2: was on Wahiki Island at the weekend, enjoying the long weekend.
15:43
Speaker 2: Beaches were nowhere near as full as they would normally
15:46
Speaker 2: be and this was on the good day when the
15:48
Speaker 2: weather was nice. Restaurants same story. The wineries of vineyards
15:52
Speaker 2: weren't as busy. Is the cost of living crisis affecting
15:57
Speaker 2: our travel? I think it is. I think it's having
16:01
Speaker 2: a big impact. Did you go away this weekend? Do
16:03
Speaker 2: you pack the car, take the kids? Were you driving safely?
16:06
Speaker 2: Was there lots of traffic? What was your experience? That
16:09
Speaker 2: is one theory I have as to why our road
16:11
Speaker 2: toll is currently sitting at zero twenty eight out of five.
16:16
Speaker 2: Lots of feedback coming in on Christmas, Ryan, Good Morning,
16:20
Speaker 2: Camart and Pottydoor had Christmas Carol's playing on Sunday? Ridiculous?
16:25
Speaker 2: Cheers Chris. Apparently the Christmas Market starts at the ASB
16:30
Speaker 2: Showground next weekend, sorry this weekend, which would be well
16:37
Speaker 2: start in November, wouldn't it, Ryan, This is on Candace Owens.
16:42
Speaker 2: The American right wing broadcast are quite controversial. Ryan. We
16:47
Speaker 2: let Travis Scott in and he causes chaos and violence,
16:51
Speaker 2: even deaths in the UK. We're hypocritical if we don't
16:54
Speaker 2: meet her in, says Steve Ryan. I think Candace Owens
16:58
Speaker 2: should be allowed to come her Instagram and I find
17:01
Speaker 2: her mostly positive. Ryan. People are staying home this weekend
17:05
Speaker 2: or like me, working and this one says Ryan, it's
17:09
Speaker 2: because of the weather forecast. No one wanted to travel.
17:12
Speaker 2: We called our golf weekend off because of the weather.
17:16
Speaker 2: So therefore fewer cars on the roads. Is the numbers
17:20
Speaker 2: text twenty nine minutes after five, we're looking at kiwibank
17:24
Speaker 2: whether you could buy shares in it one day soon.
17:45
Speaker 1: On your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early edition with
17:49
Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds and
17:53
Speaker 1: applying store news talk z be.
18:04
Speaker 2: Good Morning, New Zealand, welcome to your Tuesday. Inside the
18:07
Speaker 2: next twenty five minutes, Donna Tomorrow out of Australia and
18:10
Speaker 2: key we Bank. Could it be heading for an IPO.
18:12
Speaker 2: We'll look at that as well. Joe Biden has just
18:15
Speaker 2: cast his vote, his early vote in the US election
18:19
Speaker 2: in Delaware. That is news just coming to hand right now.
18:22
Speaker 2: I wonder who he voted for, Teddy. What's interesting. Over
18:26
Speaker 2: the weekend, Trump held this rally, this huge rally at
18:30
Speaker 2: Madison Square Garden in New York City, and people were saying,
18:32
Speaker 2: why would you go to Madison Square Garden in New
18:34
Speaker 2: York City when you should be campaigning in the swing states.
18:38
Speaker 2: There are eight days to go in this election. Apparently
18:42
Speaker 2: it was all to do with fundraising, so he sold
18:45
Speaker 2: seats a super maga experience for a million dollars a pop.
18:49
Speaker 2: This is all about raising money which they can then
18:51
Speaker 2: use to feed into advertising in the swing states in
18:55
Speaker 2: the final days. So quite a clever strategy, you might say. However,
18:58
Speaker 2: what wasn't clever was getting sky Tony Hinchcliffe, the comedian
19:03
Speaker 2: so called comedian on to do his jokes.
19:05
Speaker 5: There's literally a floating island of garbage in the middle
19:09
Speaker 5: of the ocean right now.
19:10
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think it's called Puerto Rico.
19:15
Speaker 2: The reason that is not funny is because and wasn't
19:18
Speaker 2: funny to a lot of Republicans is because this is
19:22
Speaker 2: a very very tight race, and Pennsylvania is the king
19:26
Speaker 2: of the swings. It's worth the most Electoral College votes,
19:29
Speaker 2: it's crucial. Biden won that by eighty one thousand votes
19:33
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty. Trump won it by just forty four
19:36
Speaker 2: thousand votes in twenty sixteen. Guess how many Latinos live
19:42
Speaker 2: in Pennsylvania. Six hundred thousand Latinos. Half of those three
19:47
Speaker 2: hundred thousand are Puerto Ricans. Is this the time to
19:51
Speaker 2: be pissing off Puerto Ricans? No, So that's why they're
19:55
Speaker 2: so upset. It is twenty two away from.
19:57
Speaker 1: Six Brian Bridge.
19:59
Speaker 2: We're going to our reporters around the country Courtney winter
20:02
Speaker 2: with our Dunedin us this morning, Courtney drinking rules. There
20:05
Speaker 2: might be in for a shakeup.
20:07
Speaker 8: Yeah.
20:08
Speaker 11: The city council is proposing adjustments to its local alcohol
20:11
Speaker 11: policy to ensure nightlife doesn't come at the expense of
20:14
Speaker 11: community safety and well being. It says the changes they're
20:18
Speaker 11: proposing will be minor, but include important updates to the
20:22
Speaker 11: current policy. Alterations include limiting late night alcohol purchases, standardizing
20:28
Speaker 11: trading hours for late night venues, and restricting alcohol promotions
20:32
Speaker 11: off license outlets. The consultation period wraps up in just
20:36
Speaker 11: over a fortnight. All Right, has the weather today but cloudy,

20:58
Speaker 12: Church is the adult player we're talking about. It's officially
21:01
Speaker 12: got its final building consent from the council down here. Now,
21:05
Speaker 12: this is going to be the biggest indoor adventure park
21:07
Speaker 12: in the country. To give you an idea of a size,
21:10
Speaker 12: it's in an old warehouse store at the Bush And
21:12
Speaker 12: Shopping Center near Rickittson. The co owner and chief Ninja
21:16
Speaker 12: Grant Buzaval, says he's fizzing to be in this position.

Speaker 12: finalize the fit out, as well as launched the website
21:26
Speaker 12: and to conduct some job offers and training of staff.
21:30

22:09
Speaker 2: This first pace to face meeting of the council happening
22:11
Speaker 2: today after the government's intervention.
22:14
Speaker 8: Yeah, another big day at Wellington City Council. City councilors
22:18
Speaker 8: are meeting publicly for the first time today since the
22:21
Speaker 8: Government decided it would appoint a Crown Observer. Now they've
22:25
Speaker 8: previously only met behind closed doors, but this morning's Long
22:29
Speaker 8: Term Plan, Finance and Performance Committee meeting is open to
22:32
Speaker 8: the public. Of course, newstalksz'b. We will be there. The
22:36

22:39
Speaker 8: considering the process for big spending cuts and how to
22:42
Speaker 8: salvage its long term plan a ten year budget, which
22:45
Speaker 8: is a bit up in the air. Counselors had to
22:48
Speaker 8: go back to the drawing board following a decision to
22:50
Speaker 8: stop the controversial sale of its thirty four percent share
22:54
Speaker 8: in the Airport. Local government Minister Simeon Brown last week
22:58
Speaker 8: saying he's waiting on a vice over who will be
23:01
Speaker 8: that crown observer?
23:03
Speaker 2: All right, how's your weather today for that meeting?
23:05
Speaker 8: Yeah, a rainy day on the cards. As we say,
23:08
Speaker 8: it could be a good day for an indoor playground,
23:11
Speaker 8: perhaps showers arriving late morning, turning to rain for a
23:14
Speaker 8: time late afternoon or evening, possibly heavy and northwest ly
23:19
Speaker 8: is becoming strong this morning.
23:20
Speaker 2: Those Wellington City Council chambers are essentially an adult playground
23:24
Speaker 2: at this point. Nevas in Auckland, Hey.
23:27
Speaker 3: Never greetings greeting.
23:28
Speaker 2: Water Care is getting on top of those pipes.
23:30
Speaker 3: Yes, now look that Apparently water Care is saving about
23:34
Speaker 3: seven million liters of water a day in Auckland. So
23:38
Speaker 3: the water organization has been running its targeted network improvement program.
23:42
Speaker 3: This program just hones in on all the leaks and
23:44
Speaker 3: the water pressure issues around the neighborhoods here in Auckland,
23:47
Speaker 3: constantly monitoring the flow levels, looking for any unusual spikes
23:51
Speaker 3: so teams can get in there and fix it before
23:53
Speaker 3: they get worse. Dave Moore, he's the Smart System's manager.
23:57
Speaker 3: He says they've stopped half a million leads of water
24:00
Speaker 3: loss per day. This isn't Western Mangody alone, So that's
24:04
Speaker 3: got to be good news, better than Wellington. Can we
24:06
Speaker 3: say that, Yeah, we.
24:07
Speaker 2: Can say that, I Watson, do you think that that
24:10
Speaker 2: the seven million letters is a lot of water to
24:11
Speaker 2: save a day? And you know how they run those campaigns?
24:14
Speaker 2: Have a shorter shower?
24:15
Speaker 8: Yes?
24:15
Speaker 2: I wonder how much that camp You know, us having
24:17
Speaker 2: a shorter shower saves versus them fixing leaky pints.
24:21
Speaker 10: Well, yes, do you have shorter showers?
24:23
Speaker 2: No?
24:23
Speaker 3: No, I don't know.
24:24
Speaker 2: But what terrible. How's the weather today?
24:27
Speaker 3: Okay, the weather weather weather cloudy. We've got isolated showers
24:31
Speaker 3: tuning in to rain for a time this evening, possibly heavy, heavy,
24:34
Speaker 3: but still warm. Twenty one is the high here in Auckland.
24:36
Speaker 2: Brilliant. Neither think you have a fantastic day. It is

25:40
Speaker 2: Don jer Mayo is our Australia correspondent with us This morning, Donner,
25:43
Speaker 2: Good morning to you. Thousands of retail jobs set to disappear.
25:47
Speaker 2: What's going on?
25:48
Speaker 10: Oh?
25:49
Speaker 13: Well, this is terrible news because a major fashion retailer
25:52
Speaker 13: looks like it's a well teetering on the brink of
25:55
Speaker 13: going broke basically, so it's been placed under voluntary administration.
25:58
Speaker 10: So the company called Mosaic.
26:00
Speaker 13: It does run quite a number of long established fashion
26:03
Speaker 13: stores across Australia. We're talking Miller's, Rivers, Katie's and nony
26:08
Speaker 13: B and it is going to continue to trade in
26:11
Speaker 13: the lead up to Christmas, we're being told, but administrators
26:14
Speaker 13: have been brought in to look into the business.
26:16
Speaker 10: This could impact about.
26:18
Speaker 13: Two hundred and fifty jobs at head office in Sydney,
26:21
Speaker 13: but also two and a half thousand jobs across the nation.
26:25
Speaker 13: So dreadful news and the lead up to Christmas for
26:28
Speaker 13: a lot of people who.
26:29
Speaker 10: Don't know if they'll have a job afterwards.
26:31
Speaker 13: But the company says well, voluntary administration was unfortunately the
26:36
Speaker 13: most appropriate way to try to restructure. So they're hanging
26:40
Speaker 13: on for dear life but not sure what the future holds.
26:43
Speaker 13: For lots of people.
26:44
Speaker 2: It's hard out there, double whammy of cost of living
26:47
Speaker 2: and the move to online shopping. Hey, what is happening?
26:51
Speaker 2: This story fascinates me. This woman is bitten by a snake.
26:56
Speaker 2: She's missing and the bush for nearly two weeks and survives.
27:01
Speaker 13: It's extraordinary and what a relief for all the people
27:04
Speaker 13: that were out there searching for her and for Lovisa Schoburg,
27:07
Speaker 13: a woman who moved to Australia from Sweden about twenty
27:10
Speaker 13: years ago. Then she moved to the Rugged Snowy Mountains
27:13
Speaker 13: in twenty eighteen. She loves to photograph wild horses out there.
27:17
Speaker 13: So she was lost in the Kosiosco National Park for
27:20
Speaker 13: that amount of time extraordinary, But.
27:22
Speaker 10: She's been found. She's a forty eight year old woman who.
27:26
Speaker 13: Did get bitten by apparently a copperhead snake, which is venomous,
27:31
Speaker 13: and then four days later she was found. After that bite,
27:35
Speaker 13: she's also rolled at ankle, she's dehydrated, but she's in
27:38
Speaker 13: hospital now in a stable condition.
27:40
Speaker 10: One searcher said it was like looking.
27:42
Speaker 13: For, as they put it, a pinhead in a haystack.
27:45
Speaker 10: But they did find her. Very very lucky to be alive,
27:48
Speaker 10: That's what I'm saying.
27:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, very lucky. Indeed, great ending to that story, Donna,
27:52
Speaker 2: thank you very much for that. Donald Demorrow, our Australia correspondent.
27:55
Speaker 2: She is a story in the US media today about
27:57
Speaker 2: a guy who went missing for thirty days in the
28:00
Speaker 2: bush and in a national park in America, and he
28:04
Speaker 2: was eating berries and you know, whatever water he could
28:06
Speaker 2: find off leaves and stuff. And he said he was
28:09
Speaker 2: about to give up and like literally within hours or
28:14
Speaker 2: a day of death. And he decided to do one
28:17
Speaker 2: last scream screams, and the park rangers happened to be
28:23
Speaker 2: walking past in a track nearby, run to his rescue,
28:27
Speaker 2: save him. He's alive today, live.
28:29
Speaker 1: In to six Crying Bridge.
28:31
Speaker 2: Anyone want to buy shears and Kibi Bank, you may
28:33
Speaker 2: soon get the chance. Three options are on the table
28:36
Speaker 2: for the government to increase Kibi Bank's capital and increase
28:39
Speaker 2: its competitiveness with the big banks, increasing government debt, third
28:43
Speaker 2: party investment and putting it on the enz X are
28:46
Speaker 2: all options for the Finance minister. According to advice released
28:50
Speaker 2: over the weekend from Treasury, which one is best? David
28:53
Speaker 2: Tripp is Massia University's banking expert. He's with us Live
28:56
Speaker 2: this morning. Good morning, good morning, right to have you
29:00
Speaker 2: on the program. David, tell us which one you think
29:04
Speaker 2: is best?
29:06
Speaker 9: Well, they all have their challenges. If the government raises
29:13
Speaker 9: some additional funds on the market and pumps it in directly,
29:16
Speaker 9: that's probably the most straightforward because it's it doesn't require
29:23
Speaker 9: the involvement of anybody else to make a contribution. The
29:32
Speaker 9: government is raising their debt funding all the time, and
29:35
Speaker 9: it will just be sort of a part of the
29:37
Speaker 9: debt funding they were raising. As to the crown controlled
29:44
Speaker 9: organizations can involve. We did previously have super Fund and
29:49
Speaker 9: the ACC investing in Kiewi Bank. They were unhappy with
29:54
Speaker 9: the returns they earned and that's why last year they
30:00
Speaker 9: managed to exit because they were happy with that. And
30:04
Speaker 9: the similar issues apply with an inded X listing or
30:11
Speaker 9: other private parties getting involved. The returns are not especially
30:16
Speaker 9: good and that's one of the big challenges to floating
30:19
Speaker 9: Ewbank on the as an IPI.
30:23
Speaker 2: Why their return is not good when the Aussie ones
30:25
Speaker 2: appear to be.
30:28
Speaker 9: The biggest problem is actually the matter of scale and
30:32
Speaker 9: the cost of regulation and technology. What we actually see
30:36
Speaker 9: is that all of the smaller banks struggle to earn
30:42
Speaker 9: the sorts of returns being earned by the large banks,
30:45
Speaker 9: and it's very much a consequence of the of the
30:52
Speaker 9: costs of regulation and technology. If we go back twenty years,
31:01
Speaker 9: tsb's costs were very much comparable with the all large
31:06
Speaker 9: Australian banks. That has stopped being the case, and the
31:13
Speaker 9: big Gussie banks now have a big advantage in terms
31:15
Speaker 9: of costs.
31:16
Speaker 2: So in trying to solve the big bank profit problem,
31:20
Speaker 2: we are looking at a whole range of regulations that
31:24
Speaker 2: could that perversely actually make the problem worse for the
31:28
Speaker 2: smaller banks.
31:30
Speaker 9: Well, we're putting additional regulations in place. Is not really
31:35
Speaker 9: going to improve anything, I don't think. On the other hand,
31:39
Speaker 9: we don't really want to have small banks there that
31:41
Speaker 9: are subject to less regulation because that increases the risk
31:46
Speaker 9: of problems going wrong with them. So it's a bit
31:50
Speaker 9: of a challenge working out how we're going to solve
31:52
Speaker 9: this problem.
31:53
Speaker 2: David Tripe, Massi University Banking Expert, really appreciate your time
31:57
Speaker 2: this morning. It is seven away from Sex News talksb News.

32:42
Speaker 14: the country absolutely jammed, as in like ridiculous, as in
32:46
Speaker 14: like what happened?
32:47
Speaker 2: But where you go without saying where it is is
32:50
Speaker 2: quite accessible, isn't it. I mean, if for a day
32:53
Speaker 2: trip for Auckland, you.
32:54
Speaker 14: Can go on road and at the end of the
32:56

33:01
Speaker 14: stay the night. No, no, it's a day trip. No,
33:04
Speaker 14: that's very that's a very good point. And on the
33:06
Speaker 14: way home yesterday, funally enough, I did comment to the
33:09
Speaker 14: woman to my left, I said, my word, these roads
33:12
Speaker 14: are quiet for a holiday weekend.
33:14

33:28
Speaker 14: you don't go when it's cold?
