- 0:01Speaker 1: The issues, the interviews and the inside Ryan Bridge new
- 0:08Speaker 1: for twenty twenty four on the early edition with Smith City,
- 0:12Speaker 1: New Zealand's furniture beds and a play at store news talks.
- 0:15Speaker 2: They'd be good morning. It is just gone six half
- 0:18Speaker 2: to five year old news talks. It'd be great to
- 0:19Speaker 2: have your company this morning. We look at those benefit
- 0:22Speaker 2: numbers out yesterday. If you live in the provinces and
- 0:24Speaker 2: the mill closes where you work, should you be thought
- 0:28Speaker 2: to move for work? We'll ask that question this morning.
- 0:31Speaker 2: Plus the thirty six thousand nurses going on strike to
- 0:33Speaker 2: make a point about safety. Slightly ironic, the French government
- 0:39Speaker 2: basically falling apart of the seams already at risk of
- 0:42Speaker 2: a cavan and Leslie Yeoman is in Australia for us
- 0:45Speaker 2: this morning.
- 0:47Speaker 3: The agenda.
- 0:48Speaker 2: It's Tuesday to third of December. Nobody is above the
- 0:51Speaker 2: law and this daddy's running the country. Yes, Hunter Biden
- 0:56Speaker 2: was facing gun and tax charges. No longer.
- 1:00Speaker 4: There may be more selective prosecutions, and there was a
- 1:04Speaker 4: feeling among a number of Biden allies that Hunter Biden
- 1:08Speaker 4: would be an easy target for a Trump Justice department
- 1:12Speaker 4: looking to make a point so that is to protect
- 1:15Speaker 4: his son.
- 1:16Speaker 2: The decision that's been made here so apparently because remember
- 1:19Speaker 2: during the election, Biden said many times, I will not
- 1:22Speaker 2: pardon my son, I will not parton my son, and
- 1:24Speaker 2: then he has pardoned his son. He says, I took
- 1:27Speaker 2: the weekend this Thanksgiving weekend, took the Thanksgiving weekend with
- 1:31Speaker 2: my family, wrestled with the decision and decided.
- 1:33Speaker 5: To do it.
- 1:34Speaker 2: So there you go. It's all kicking off in France.
- 1:37Speaker 2: The new government is at risk of caving. And this
- 1:39Speaker 2: is just three months after they formed a member That
- 1:42Speaker 2: took a while too, and they had the Olympics during
- 1:44Speaker 2: that period. It's all over a budget bill using special
- 1:47Speaker 2: powers to bypass a vote by MPs. The far right,
- 1:51Speaker 2: it's not happy. La penn Is throwing her weight around
- 1:54Speaker 2: the far left. You know that little gaggle of far
- 1:57Speaker 2: lefties that came together during the election. Darn happy either.
- 2:01Speaker 2: So there is the possibility of a confidence vote, which
- 2:04Speaker 2: could take place as early as Thursday. New Zealand time,
- 2:08Speaker 2: the minority government unlikely to survive it. Georgia, we've been
- 2:12Speaker 2: following this on The capital sent a fourth night of
- 2:14Speaker 2: protests against the government's decision to pause negotiations on joining
- 2:17Speaker 2: the EU.
- 2:18Speaker 6: Every single day there's more and more people coming and
- 2:22Speaker 6: it gives me pup that this government will finally go away.
- 2:28Speaker 2: Plastic talks for a global treaty on tackling plastic pollution
- 2:32Speaker 2: have collapsed more than two years after negotiations started. A
- 2:37Speaker 2: group of around one hundred countries were calling for all
- 2:38Speaker 2: plastic production to be phased out, but face opposition from guests,
- 2:43Speaker 2: whom oil producing countries. Plastic productions billed be responsible for
- 2:47Speaker 2: around five percent of global emission. So there you go,
- 2:50Speaker 2: two years of talking and no where they got.
- 2:54Speaker 3: Ryan Bridge you for twenty twenty four on early edition
- 2:58Speaker 3: with Smith City, New Zealand's Foot your Beds and a
- 3:00Speaker 3: Playing Store, News Talk said, be yeah, we're going to.
- 3:03Speaker 2: Talk to Western Curtain just before six this morning. He's
- 3:05Speaker 2: there to pay who district mayor. Of course, two hundred
- 3:07Speaker 2: and thirty jobs went there at the Winstone pulp mill closures.
- 3:12Speaker 2: So if you live in a place like that and
- 3:15Speaker 2: there are no jobs for you around, do you think
- 3:18Speaker 2: that you should have to move to get a job.
- 3:20Speaker 2: Should you be forced to move to get a job,
- 3:22Speaker 2: should you get sanctions if you don't move to get
- 3:26Speaker 2: a job text me nineteen nine two. I'd love to
- 3:29Speaker 2: know what you think. I mean, it's brutal, but you
- 3:32Speaker 2: can't have if there is no industry, if there is
- 3:36Speaker 2: no employment in a small provincial part of New Zealand anymore,
- 3:40Speaker 2: if that industry has dried up or fallen over or whatever,
- 3:44Speaker 2: you can't just forever hand out welfare to that place,
- 3:47Speaker 2: can you? Nineteen nine two. We'd love to know what
- 3:50Speaker 2: your thoughts are on that. And also the pole, if
- 3:52Speaker 2: you've seen this pole. I'll running through the numbers just
- 3:55Speaker 2: before we come back, sorry, just after we get back
- 3:57Speaker 2: from break, because I do I find them a little
- 4:01Speaker 2: bit surprising. But the most important number, I'll tell you
- 4:04Speaker 2: right now, the most important number when it comes to
- 4:06Speaker 2: being elected or re elected as a government is the
- 4:09Speaker 2: right track wrong track. This is a post Freshwater strategy
- 4:12Speaker 2: poll and the people who think we're in the right
- 4:16Speaker 2: direction going in the right track thirty five percent, the
- 4:20Speaker 2: wrong direction forty eight percent, So yeah, there are more
- 4:24Speaker 2: people who think we're going in the wrong direction. However,
- 4:26Speaker 2: that number was sixty four percent back in August twenty
- 4:29Speaker 2: twenty three, so the fact that it's come down is
- 4:32Speaker 2: good news for the government. However, there are bad numbers
- 4:35Speaker 2: in this poll, which we'll talk about in a second.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Just gone ten after five News Talk set b Brian Bread.
- 4:44Speaker 2: They did have a bit of a win yesterday in
- 4:46Speaker 2: terms of the Supreme Court decision on the foreshore and
- 4:49Speaker 2: sea bed. We'll get to Chrispin Layson on that next.
- 4:52Speaker 2: Good Morning. If you're just joining us, it is Tuesday,
- 4:55Speaker 2: it is eleven after five. Will you I will be
- 5:00Speaker 2: love as nasty long a.
- 5:06Speaker 3: The first word on the News of the Day early
- 5:09Speaker 3: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture
- 5:13Speaker 3: Beds and a playing store.
- 5:14Speaker 2: News Talks. The thirteen after five on News Talks there
- 5:17Speaker 2: b Yes. The pole result from this post Freshwater Strategy
- 5:21Speaker 2: poll shows National has slipped four points since the October
- 5:24Speaker 2: twenty twenty three election. Labour is up, Hepkins is up
- 5:28Speaker 2: and actually has pulled ahead of Luxeon as preferred prime minister.
- 5:32Speaker 2: They say this means the twenty twenty six race is
- 5:34Speaker 2: very much alive. We're a long way before were the
- 5:36Speaker 2: twenty twenty sixth election, aren't We just make that point?
- 5:38Speaker 2: But what is it? What do people just hate Christopher
- 5:41Speaker 2: Luxen that much that they are going to get rid
- 5:44Speaker 2: of them after one term or is it probably more
- 5:47Speaker 2: likely In the numbers we're seeing coming through, not just
- 5:51Speaker 2: the benefit numbers yesterday, but the November Credit indicator reported out,
- 5:55Speaker 2: which I've just gott in my hand here, it is
- 5:57Speaker 2: still a very tough time out there. Over consumer areas
- 6:01Speaker 2: up three point one percent, mortgage areas up ten percent,
- 6:05Speaker 2: business credit defaults across the board up sixteen percent on
- 6:09Speaker 2: average year on year, the construction industry up thirty eight percent,
- 6:13Speaker 2: transport thirty five percent, company liquidations across the country up
- 6:17Speaker 2: twenty seven percent. So there's a whole bunch of bad
- 6:20Speaker 2: numbers for you, which might explain the particularly bad number
- 6:24Speaker 2: you see in the political poll fourteen after five Bryan
- 6:27Speaker 2: Bridge torture and Seabed update on the court proceedings yesterday.
- 6:30Speaker 2: So this is basically the government being allowed to appeal
- 6:34Speaker 2: a decision that was made last year by an appeals court.
- 6:38Speaker 2: It's the Supreme Court that's handed out this somewhat of
- 6:41Speaker 2: a win for the government. You'd have to say it's
- 6:43Speaker 2: all about customary marine title, customary rights to the foreshore
- 6:48Speaker 2: and seabed and Chris fin Leasons, the former treaty negotiations
- 6:50Speaker 2: Minister and Attorney General is with us this morning. Good morning,
- 6:54Speaker 2: Good morning to you. How significant is this?
- 6:58Speaker 7: I think it's a very significant decision. The Supreme Court
- 7:03Speaker 7: has considered the background to the Marine and Coastal at
- 7:09Speaker 7: two thousand and eleven and has had a good hard
- 7:12Speaker 7: look at section sixty eight, which deals with customary marine title,
- 7:19Speaker 7: and has as it were, repaired the problems caused by
- 7:24Speaker 7: the Court of appealed judgment. So it's a very significant judgment.
- 7:28Speaker 2: So we still have to wait for the government to
- 7:30Speaker 2: appeal the decision. Might have been given the right to
- 7:33Speaker 2: appeal the decision, but they haven't said that they will
- 7:35Speaker 2: do that yet. Does this nullify the need for the
- 7:39Speaker 2: government's amendment to the bill.
- 7:42Speaker 7: I think that's a very good question. Legislation was introduced.
- 7:46Speaker 7: It may have been better to have waited until the
- 7:48Speaker 7: Supreme Court delivered its decision before deciding whether to proceed
- 7:53Speaker 7: was legislation. But I've given a lot of thought to
- 7:59Speaker 7: your questions since I read the judgment yesterday afternoon, and
- 8:03Speaker 7: that I can't see the needs for legislation now, so.
- 8:06Speaker 2: You would stop it because it's from memory past its
- 8:09Speaker 2: first reading. I think it's submissions have been called from
- 8:12Speaker 2: the Select Committee. You just get rid of the bell,
- 8:14Speaker 2: I mean, because they can appeal it, but then it
- 8:17Speaker 2: could still bounce back again.
- 8:19Speaker 7: Right, Well, they have appealed it and the Attorney General
- 8:23Speaker 7: was successful in the Supreme Court. But questions given that success,
- 8:28Speaker 7: given the decision of the Supreme Court, is legislation clarifying
- 8:34Speaker 7: the Court of appealed decision now necessary? And I don't
- 8:36Speaker 7: think it is right. I think one can proceed on
- 8:40Speaker 7: the basis of the Supreme Court decision without the need
- 8:43Speaker 7: for legislation.
- 8:44Speaker 2: I guess they don't call it the Supreme Court for nothing,
- 8:46Speaker 2: do they. Chrispin Lason, thank you very much for your
- 8:47Speaker 2: time the Attorney General and form a treaty negotiations Minister
- 8:51Speaker 2: seventeen after five News Talks b get.
- 8:54Speaker 3: Ahead of the headlines, Ryan Bridge, you for twenty twenty
- 8:57Speaker 3: four on early edition with Smiths City, New Zealand's furniture
- 9:01Speaker 3: beds and a play at store.
- 9:03Speaker 2: News Talks they'd be three quick techs at nineteen after five. Yes, Ryan,
- 9:08Speaker 2: I would move if I had to for work. Back
- 9:11Speaker 2: in our hunter gatherer days, if food ran out where
- 9:13Speaker 2: we lived, we would just move or we would die.
- 9:16Speaker 2: This is the question of whether, if you're in a
- 9:18Speaker 2: town or a province where jobs are dryed up, should
- 9:22Speaker 2: you be forced to move or should we just keep
- 9:23Speaker 2: paying welfare forever? Ryan, This is on the polls. People
- 9:27Speaker 2: have short memories after the incompetent labor government. The tough
- 9:30Speaker 2: love is unpopular, but totally necessary if we have any
- 9:34Speaker 2: hope of lifting the economy for the benefit of all.
- 9:36Speaker 2: And the third text, Ryan, are those pilot whales like
- 9:39Speaker 2: parrots or are they like us humans putting their fairies
- 9:43Speaker 2: on autopilot and heading for the beach twenty after five,
- 9:47Speaker 2: Ryan Bridge, Only they follow the one sick like one
- 9:50Speaker 2: of them will be sick and is piloting the rest
- 9:53Speaker 2: of these so called pilots. And if that one is
- 9:55Speaker 2: second disorientated and gets onto the beach, then they all follow.
- 9:58Speaker 2: It's quite sad, it really when you think about it. Anyway,
- 10:01Speaker 2: Speaking of being sick, don't go to the hospital today.
- 10:03Speaker 2: Thirty six thousand nurses on strike. Paul Goalz is the
- 10:06Speaker 2: New Zealand Nurses' organization chief executive. He's with us this morning. Paul,
- 10:09Speaker 2: good morning, good morning. Now, no one is going to
- 10:12Speaker 2: die because of the strike, are they? You've got life
- 10:14Speaker 2: preserving services ready to go.
- 10:17Speaker 5: Yeah, each hospital is required to ensure there's a minimum
- 10:21Speaker 5: number of staff to ensure patient care continues.
- 10:25Speaker 2: It's all over ironically actually safe staffing levels. And you
- 10:30Speaker 2: think the changes that have been made will mean that
- 10:32Speaker 2: there'll be fewer nurses on a shift. Do you know
- 10:35Speaker 2: how many fewer might it might mean?
- 10:38Speaker 5: No, No, we don't because it varies. The very nature
- 10:41Speaker 5: that staffing system that they want to pause means that
- 10:45Speaker 5: there's great variance across the different wards, et cetera, according
- 10:48Speaker 5: to just how many patients have gotten and just how
- 10:51Speaker 5: sick or injured those particular patients are. So there's great variants.
- 10:55Speaker 5: And we have actually tried to ascertain through official and
- 11:00Speaker 5: requests from the fatal or exactly what that number looks like.
- 11:05Speaker 5: We can't get that data.
- 11:07Speaker 2: They won't give you the data on how many nurses
- 11:10Speaker 2: are needed per patient to be safe.
- 11:13Speaker 5: We'll put it another way, how many short they are
- 11:16Speaker 5: on each shift?
- 11:18Speaker 2: Right? Well, that seems a bit MINGI of them.
- 11:21Speaker 5: I would have thought, yeah, yeah, if you try to
- 11:25Speaker 5: work together with an employer, that's pretty critical information and
- 11:28Speaker 5: it's been being withheld and we've really asking for that
- 11:33Speaker 5: through the bargaining as well through the good faith provisions
- 11:35Speaker 5: and the bargaining. But we would like to work together
- 11:38Speaker 5: on this rather than just have them make anylateral decisions.
- 11:42Speaker 2: If your goal is highlight to the public how unsafe
- 11:45Speaker 2: staffing is is taking you know, thirty six thousand nurses
- 11:49Speaker 2: off for an eight hour shift way to make the point.
- 11:53Speaker 5: Well, this is what the nurses themselves asked for. You know,
- 11:57Speaker 5: we've been bargaining for a number of months. They're exact
- 12:00Speaker 5: created by how this process sort of drags on and
- 12:03Speaker 5: it happens every time we do this, and then finally
- 12:06Speaker 5: to fut the war came up with the sort of
- 12:10Speaker 5: these are our two key positions. One is are safe
- 12:14Speaker 5: staff and pausing that et cetera. That alarms nurses because
- 12:18Speaker 5: already they are understaffed and pausing it exacerbates that problem.
- 12:23Speaker 5: And also there's issues around the wage increase as well.
- 12:26Speaker 2: All right, Paul, thank you very much your time. Appreciate it.
- 12:28Speaker 2: It's Paul Galter. He's the New Zealand Nurses Organization chief executive.
- 12:32Speaker 2: That strike between eleven am and seven pm today and
- 12:35Speaker 2: people saying don't worry, you know, no one will die, Well,
- 12:39Speaker 2: I mean you can't say that, can you. You don't know
- 12:40Speaker 2: that for sure, but they're basically just saying you will
- 12:44Speaker 2: still be able to access healthcare should you need it,
- 12:47Speaker 2: especially if you are in a critical condition and the
- 12:49Speaker 2: need of that. By the way, their pay increase that
- 12:52Speaker 2: they were looking at that he was talking about it,
- 12:53Speaker 2: then half a percent they've been offered for April twenty
- 12:56Speaker 2: twenty five year, and then one percent the year after that.
- 13:00Speaker 2: They say it's not inflation, so it's essentially a pay cut.
- 13:04Speaker 2: Twenty three after five News Talks EB the.
- 13:06Speaker 3: Early edition for All the Show podcast on Ihart Radio
- 13:10Speaker 3: Power by News Talks IV.
- 13:13Speaker 2: It is twenty five minutes after five year on News Talks.
- 13:15Speaker 2: He be great to have your company this morning. This
- 13:17Speaker 2: is the American well would be American presidents now outgoing
- 13:22Speaker 2: and the one elect.
- 13:24Speaker 3: No one will be above the law, the American principle
- 13:29Speaker 3: that no one is above the law.
- 13:31Speaker 2: Why do Americans keep saying nobody is above the law
- 13:34Speaker 2: and then repeatedly showing us that some blatantly are. Biden
- 13:39Speaker 2: tweeted this during the campaign, nobody is above the law.
- 13:43Speaker 2: He said it one hundred times. He was talking about
- 13:45Speaker 2: charges against Trump, of course, but on principle, he said
- 13:48Speaker 2: the same applies to him and his family, including his
- 13:51Speaker 2: son Hunter. Then here we are. He's lost the election
- 13:54Speaker 2: and quicker than you can say, get out of jail free,
- 13:56Speaker 2: he has flip flopped on that. Convictions wiped clean. Hunter
- 14:00Speaker 2: now won't face any jail time or have a criminal
- 14:03Speaker 2: record for two separate core cases, some of them involving
- 14:07Speaker 2: gun charges. By the way, their constitution allows this, it
- 14:11Speaker 2: allows presidents to pardon pretty much anyone for federal crimes
- 14:16Speaker 2: except themselves for impeachment. Trubbed it on the way out
- 14:20Speaker 2: too when he was in last time Obama both Bush's
- 14:23Speaker 2: FDR apparently hit the record with more than two thousand
- 14:26Speaker 2: pardons when he left office. At the same time that
- 14:30Speaker 2: Biden proves his son is in fact above the law.
- 14:32Speaker 2: You've got the Department of Justice dropping cases against Trump, left,
- 14:36Speaker 2: right and center. Why while they have a policy not
- 14:39Speaker 2: going after sitting presidents. So we have a Department of
- 14:42Speaker 2: Justice policy, we have that pesky written constitution to blame.
- 14:47Speaker 2: And that's fine. It's their country, it's not mine. But
- 14:50Speaker 2: aren't you kind of glad that we don't mix politics
- 14:53Speaker 2: with justice here like they do in the States. When
- 14:56Speaker 2: we say nobody's above them law. We pretty much mean it,
- 15:00Speaker 2: don't we. I know some will argue that we apply
- 15:03Speaker 2: the law unevenly, and there are cases to be made
- 15:06Speaker 2: for that, but on political grounds, Nah, we don't really
- 15:10Speaker 2: do that. This is the Department going after person a
- 15:15Speaker 2: because they vote for labor or they vote for ACT
- 15:17Speaker 2: or whatever. It just doesn't work like that here. The
- 15:20Speaker 2: Americans do many things well, but separation of powers, particularly
- 15:23Speaker 2: when it comes to these types of issues, doesn't appear
- 15:26Speaker 2: to be one of them. Bryan Bridge twenty seven minutes
- 15:29Speaker 2: after five. I just want to run you through because
- 15:31Speaker 2: we are. Mike's going to speak to MPI later this
- 15:35Speaker 2: morning about this poultry situation, but I just want to
- 15:37Speaker 2: run you through what the risks are here. So exports
- 15:41Speaker 2: are worth one hundred and ninety million dollars and they
- 15:44Speaker 2: are currently on hold. They are halted. This is because
- 15:48Speaker 2: of the discovery of and their biosecurity measures in place
- 15:52Speaker 2: at an egg farm in Otago. They go have to
- 15:55Speaker 2: kill forty thousand chickens there on this remote farm. It
- 15:59Speaker 2: is not H five N one, which is the really
- 16:02Speaker 2: bad one everyone talks about. It's been detected in only
- 16:05Speaker 2: one of four of the barns on this farm, which
- 16:09Speaker 2: is apparently a good thing because it means that there
- 16:12Speaker 2: are some protocols in place there that's stopping it spread.
- 16:15Speaker 2: And the big number here is twenty one. Twenty one
- 16:18Speaker 2: days is the incubation period, and then we will reassess.
- 16:23Speaker 2: So for at least the next twenty one days, our
- 16:25Speaker 2: annual one hundred and ninety million dollars worth of exports
- 16:29Speaker 2: will be affected, and then we will reassess and decide
- 16:33Speaker 2: what needs to be done next. That's according to our MPI.
- 16:35Speaker 2: They'll be on the show with Mike after six thirty
- 16:38Speaker 2: this morning. I believe twenty eight minutes after five on
- 16:40Speaker 2: News Talks, he'd be still to come. We're going to
- 16:43Speaker 2: talk jobs in the provinces just before six o'clock. And
- 16:46Speaker 2: also this beer in Japan that basically went to town
- 16:52Speaker 2: in a supermarket for three days, bit someone's arm off
- 16:56Speaker 2: and then just went loose for three days. Anyway, they've
- 16:58Speaker 2: finally killed it. I'll tell you how.
- 17:35Speaker 3: On your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early Edition with
- 17:39Speaker 3: Ryan Bridge and Smith City New Zealand's Furniture Beds and
- 17:43Speaker 3: a Playing Store, Youth Talk z B.
- 17:52Speaker 2: Good Morning New Zealand twenty four away from six. Welcome
- 17:55Speaker 2: to early edition. I'm Ryan Bridge. Great to have you
- 17:57Speaker 2: company this morning. See this is a problem with written constitutions.
- 18:01Speaker 2: Two little things happening this morning. One, the government's about
- 18:04Speaker 2: to fall over in France. Literally they're caving in after
- 18:07Speaker 2: being in power for three months, and it took them
- 18:11Speaker 2: two months to pick a primeanent. Anyway, it's a long story,
- 18:14Speaker 2: but it's a very messy one. And they have used
- 18:17Speaker 2: a particular part This is the prime minister. They used
- 18:20Speaker 2: a particular part of their constitution to push through his
- 18:23Speaker 2: budget without the MP's having to vote on it. So
- 18:28Speaker 2: this is He's used Article forty nine points three of
- 18:31Speaker 2: the French Constitution, which allows the text of a bill
- 18:33Speaker 2: to be passed without a vote, to push through his
- 18:37Speaker 2: twenty twenty five This is Barnier the Prime Minister, to
- 18:39Speaker 2: push through his twenty twenty five budget. Now, the lefty group,
- 18:42Speaker 2: the little gaggle of lefties of far lefties, aren't happy
- 18:47Speaker 2: that he was put in power by by the President
- 18:51Speaker 2: Emmanuel Macron in the first base. And then you've got
- 18:53Speaker 2: the pen and the right wingers up unhappy with the
- 18:57Speaker 2: bill itself as well. So you've got the use of
- 19:00Speaker 2: a constitution. And then look at the United States. What's
- 19:02Speaker 2: happening overnight Joe Biden goes to Thanksgiving dinner with his
- 19:06Speaker 2: son Hunter, who's facing charges, about to be about to
- 19:10Speaker 2: be given a sentence, and because of their constitution, their
- 19:15Speaker 2: written constitution, he's allowed to pardon his son, which he
- 19:19Speaker 2: has done overnight.
- 19:20Speaker 5: So there you go.
- 19:21Speaker 2: They're not all they're cracked up to be, are they?
- 19:23Speaker 2: Much as we win about our unwritten and loose arrangements.
- 19:27Speaker 2: Twenty two away from six Bryan Bridge, we're going to
- 19:30Speaker 2: our reporters around the country. Are lots of texts to
- 19:31Speaker 2: get to as well, which we will. Colen Proctor is
- 19:33Speaker 2: in Dunedan Callum, good morning to you. Culling starts today
- 19:37Speaker 2: on those forty thousand chickens at the Otaogo egg farm
- 19:40Speaker 2: that were infected with bird flu yod.
- 19:43Speaker 8: Morning, Ryan. This is the Mainland Poultry managed property. It's
- 19:47Speaker 8: near Mouraki for those that know the regents. That's north
- 19:50Speaker 8: of Dunedin that sets a loose twenty percent of its
- 19:52Speaker 8: birds following confirmation of this disease within one of its sheds.
- 19:57Speaker 8: It's not the aviate influenza currently circul wildlife globally. It's
- 20:02Speaker 8: likely this one came from local waterfowl and wild Birds.
- 20:06Speaker 8: Ministry of Primary Industries Director General Racemith says the culling
- 20:09Speaker 8: of these chickens will take around three days. The whole
- 20:12Speaker 8: process they will take about four to six weeks before
- 20:15Speaker 8: it's complete. In the meantime, MPI stopped all live or
- 20:18Speaker 8: raw poultry exports until it's known just how widespread.
- 20:21Speaker 5: This disease is.
- 20:22Speaker 8: All right, Caulham has the weather a scattered rain for Todedan,
- 20:26Speaker 8: but clears this morning to mainly find a gusty westerly today.
- 20:29Speaker 8: I have twenty eight.
- 20:30Speaker 2: Thank you, Jamie cunninghams and christ its Jamie. The trial
- 20:33Speaker 2: looking into the death of young Faye Bao reaching its
- 20:35Speaker 2: final days.
- 20:37Speaker 6: Yes, good morning, Ryan yea, so of course. King June
- 20:40Speaker 6: Joe is charged with killing Yan Fee Boo following a
- 20:43Speaker 6: private property viewing in July last year. Attempts to cross
- 20:47Speaker 6: examination by the Crown finished yesterday, with Charles stating he
- 20:50Speaker 6: wasn't being allowed to answer questions, while the Crown says
- 20:53Speaker 6: he wasn't answering properly. At one stage, Charle asked Crown
- 20:57Speaker 6: lawyer Pitt Curry if she was ashamed and accused her
- 21:00Speaker 6: and police of falsifying evidence. Curry argued back it was
- 21:04Speaker 6: Chow doing the falsifying, saying his evidence doesn't make sense,
- 21:08Speaker 6: and of course we're up to week seven of a
- 21:10Speaker 6: six week trial.
- 21:11Speaker 2: May. How's the weather, Well.
- 21:13Speaker 6: It's morning, cloud then becoming fine, some fresh northwesterlies this afternoon,
- 21:17Speaker 6: but a high of twenty eight.
- 21:18Speaker 2: Brilliant. Thank you, Max tolsan Wellington Max Housing development. Ruffling feathers.
- 21:23Speaker 9: Yeah, there's a lovely, colorful old villa that sits higher
- 21:27Speaker 9: up in the suburb of Mount Victoria that has well
- 21:30Speaker 9: been brought out and is now being knocked down to
- 21:33Speaker 9: make way for some new luxury flats. This is a
- 21:36Speaker 9: high end residential thirty two unit apartment building with a
- 21:39Speaker 9: swimming pool, garage cafe for residents. Develop a former group
- 21:45Speaker 9: says it's all thanks to the new district plan which
- 21:48Speaker 9: scrapped many height limits and heritage rules in the Capitol.
- 21:52Speaker 9: Locals are unsurprisingly not happy. They're door knocking around the
- 21:56Speaker 9: suburb at the moment, saying its size wouldn't be respectful
- 22:00Speaker 9: or appropriate.
- 22:02Speaker 2: Okay, did you say it was thirty units? Thirty units? Yeah, Okay,
- 22:08Speaker 2: not very It's a lovely old disrespectful to build a building. Well,
- 22:13Speaker 2: hi to people.
- 22:14Speaker 9: Just I guess I suppose people just don't like big
- 22:16Speaker 9: things overlooking looming over their houses.
- 22:19Speaker 2: Do they know that is true? How's the weather?
- 22:22Speaker 9: Mostly cloudy but a drizzle is some strong northerlyis nineteen
- 22:25Speaker 9: the high central?
- 22:26Speaker 2: Thanks Max, Neva's not good, Hey, Neva, good morning. So
- 22:29Speaker 2: residents in Remuerra having their old pipes replaced.
- 22:34Speaker 10: That's right, they're getting an upgrade. So water Care is
- 22:37Speaker 10: replacing six hundred and fifty meters. This is of this
- 22:40Speaker 10: age in water main and it's part of the twenty
- 22:44Speaker 10: eight million dollar city wide renewal program. So we know
- 22:48Speaker 10: that work is happening on Remuera Road. This is between
- 22:51Speaker 10: the corners of Stony Royd Gardens and Locke Street. Now
- 22:55Speaker 10: most of you will remember the water main broke three times.
- 22:58Speaker 10: This was beth in fab three times in one day.
- 23:02Speaker 10: So that's where they're centering there, you know, or the
- 23:05Speaker 10: focus there at the moment. Sharon Denks, she's head of
- 23:07Speaker 10: water at water Care. She says like there's going to
- 23:09Speaker 10: be some temporary temporary keyword traffic management restrictions and reduced
- 23:14Speaker 10: on street parking. But she thinks, she reckons that the
- 23:18Speaker 10: majority will be finished.
- 23:19Speaker 2: Before Christmas, and so this is water not waste.
- 23:24Speaker 11: Correct.
- 23:25Speaker 2: Okay, it's going to say then to posh tapoo, there
- 23:28Speaker 2: aren't they?

- 23:42Speaker 10: and so you've got them.
- 23:43Speaker 2: You wouldn't get this in era no wants digital. It's
- 23:47Speaker 2: a terribly tacky tinsel.
- 23:49Speaker 10: Well I think it is too. We didn't have this
- 23:51Speaker 10: last year.
- 23:52Speaker 2: I've got they're basically TV screens behind us, aren't they
- 23:56Speaker 2: like like TV screen fifty inch TV or whatever. And
- 23:59Speaker 2: they've got just got to one tacky piece of turms
- 24:02Speaker 2: like it.
- 24:02Speaker 10: I think we need real You've got to have real,
- 24:05Speaker 10: you know, real decorations.
- 24:06Speaker 2: Sure, I think they're a bit cheap around here. Looks
- 24:09Speaker 2: of it they are.
- 24:11Speaker 10: Looks got broken chairs, headpines.
- 24:14Speaker 2: That's the weather.
- 24:15Speaker 10: Oh my gosh, lovely fine, another fine day, a high
- 24:18Speaker 10: twenty five.
- 24:19Speaker 2: Wasn't it hot yesterday? It was very hot yesterday, but
- 24:21Speaker 2: hot last night too. Seventeen away from six. You're on
- 24:24Speaker 2: news Talk.
- 24:25Speaker 3: Zb International correspondence with ends and Eye Insurance, peace of
- 24:29Speaker 3: mind for New Zealand business.
- 24:32Speaker 2: We're talking benefit numbers here in New Zealand and just
- 24:34Speaker 2: a second quarter to six. So first we're going to
- 24:37Speaker 2: Leslie yeomans Our Australia Correspondent. Leslie, it was the biggest
- 24:40Speaker 2: I think it was the biggest ever drug bust in
- 24:44Speaker 2: Australian history. Two point three tons of cocaine and lots
- 24:47Speaker 2: of arrests, lots.
- 24:49Speaker 11: Of arrest and that is a huge amount of anything.
- 24:53Speaker 11: Trying to bring something like that into Australia. They we're
- 24:56Speaker 11: doing it by c And what had happened that on
- 25:00Speaker 11: Saturday and Saturday night and Sunday morning police arrested thirteen
- 25:06Speaker 11: people in all, two of them said to be associated
- 25:09Speaker 11: with the outlawed biking gang Commonchero BIKEI Gang gang in Brisbane.
- 25:16Speaker 11: Those thirteen people have been mentioned in all the issues
- 25:19Speaker 11: been mentioned in court in Bunderberg yesterday it turned out
- 25:24Speaker 11: that police picked up two people in a boat that
- 25:29Speaker 11: had broken down after they'd gone out to sea to
- 25:33Speaker 11: meet up with the ship to get the drugs and
- 25:36Speaker 11: bring them back to Australia. And that boat had broken
- 25:39Speaker 11: down and that's why the police were called in. Now
- 25:42Speaker 11: it was the second boat that had actually been used
- 25:45Speaker 11: to try and get the drugs in, and it was
- 25:47Speaker 11: the second boat that had broken down. So I'm not
- 25:50Speaker 11: sure that they were very good at getting purchasing a
- 25:55Speaker 11: boat that that actually could do the job for them.
- 25:58Speaker 2: Yeah, especially when you've got such a you know a
- 26:01Speaker 2: lot of money. Well was it like nearly a billion
- 26:04Speaker 2: dollars with cocaine on board?
- 26:05Speaker 11: Yeah? Amazing, incredible right.
- 26:08Speaker 2: Tasmania. So there's a men's only club in Tasmania and
- 26:13Speaker 2: they voted to allow women into their bar, but on
- 26:16Speaker 2: one condition.
- 26:16Speaker 11: What's that, Yes, a one condition. They still have to
- 26:20Speaker 11: be accompanied by a man. Now, the Tasmania, the women
- 26:27Speaker 11: folk are delicate down there. The Tasmania Club was established
- 26:33Speaker 11: one hundred and sixty three years ago and they it
- 26:37Speaker 11: was established by seventy gentlemen who just wanted somewhere where
- 26:41Speaker 11: they could go and to the fat, so to speak,
- 26:44Speaker 11: without the ladies around them. So they decided that they
- 26:47Speaker 11: would establish this club. Now it's been going all that
- 26:50Speaker 11: time and women have been allowed into the bar prior
- 26:54Speaker 11: to this folk being taken but they had to ask
- 26:57Speaker 11: permission by the General manager of the club, and they
- 27:01Speaker 11: still had to be accompanied by a man. Now. Earlier
- 27:04Speaker 11: this year, the club's membership voted to allow women into
- 27:08Speaker 11: the bar, and they had a pretty successful vote on that.
- 27:12Speaker 11: It was seventy four to twenty two in favor, but
- 27:14Speaker 11: the very vocal minority kicked up a stink and said
- 27:19Speaker 11: we're not happy with that, so they put it all
- 27:22Speaker 11: on hold. Some of those more progressive members decided that
- 27:26Speaker 11: that was just getting a bit too ridiculous, so they
- 27:29Speaker 11: pushed to have the vote implemented and the new rules
- 27:33Speaker 11: put in. So yes, women are now allowed into the bar.
- 27:38Speaker 11: They have to be accompanied by a man though still
- 27:41Speaker 11: and yes, we'll see, well just baby steps in tazzy
- 27:46Speaker 11: baby steps.
- 27:48Speaker 2: Wait till they get a trans rights activist in there.
- 27:51Speaker 2: They'll be just said that they won't know what to
- 27:52Speaker 2: do with themselves.
- 27:54Speaker 11: Lose. That's not going to happen.
- 27:57Speaker 2: Listen, thank you for that. Lizzlie Evans, who's our Australia
- 28:00Speaker 2: suponded with us this morning eleven away from six bread Rich.
- 28:03Speaker 2: So we've got the job seeker numbers were up yesterday,
- 28:06Speaker 2: not good for the government's target, up eight thousand people
- 28:10Speaker 2: on the job seeker over the last quarter a total
- 28:13Speaker 2: now two hundred thousand. The target for the government, remember,
- 28:16Speaker 2: is fifty thousand by twenty thirty. But a question arose
- 28:20Speaker 2: at Postcab yesterday should you be forced to move for
- 28:24Speaker 2: a job and should you be punished if you don't
- 28:27Speaker 2: move for that job? The Minister Louise ups and insisting
- 28:30Speaker 2: that the sanctions are just for those who are looking
- 28:34Speaker 2: for work and are not complying with those requirements.
- 28:37Speaker 11: They're not being punished if they can't find a job.
- 28:40Speaker 6: It's about the common sense steps that they need to
- 28:42Speaker 6: take and look for some people.
- 28:44Speaker 8: They'll have a house, they'll have kids.
- 28:46Speaker 11: In school, they'll bet a whole bunch of.
- 28:48Speaker 10: Life circumstances they have to deal with. ANYMSD take that
- 28:52Speaker 10: into consideration.
- 28:53Speaker 2: They're to a pay who district's being hammered by job
- 28:55Speaker 2: cuts recently, Western Curtains of the Marry's with us this morning.
- 28:57Speaker 2: Good morning Western, Yes, good morning Ryan, Good to have
- 29:00Speaker 2: you on the show. Tell me how are you guys
- 29:02Speaker 2: getting on? You know there were two hundred and thirty
- 29:04Speaker 2: job cuts from Winstone. Pope are where is everyone?
- 29:09Speaker 7: Well, I'm moving around, Ryan, that's obviously you've got only
- 29:12Speaker 7: a limited number of opportunities in our district. We do
- 29:15Speaker 7: have one or two businesses in the seasonal basis that
- 29:18Speaker 7: take people, and we know traditionally have a high unemployment
- 29:22Speaker 7: rate in our area anyway, But to have two thirty jobs,
- 29:26Speaker 7: you know, taken away from us is a huge impact
- 29:29Speaker 7: in the economy. And we are losing these people primarily overseas.
- 29:34Speaker 7: Some of those go overseas with their skill sets, but
- 29:38Speaker 7: the mill impact is huge to us. But we're doing
- 29:42Speaker 7: our best as a council and as a community to
- 29:45Speaker 7: you know, keep those people in our towns. And there's
- 29:49Speaker 7: a huge impact to us. You know, the families that
- 29:51Speaker 7: have to move away.
- 29:52Speaker 2: Is this to me, No, it's massive. Is anyone being
- 29:55Speaker 2: forced to move or is MSD saying we will pay
- 29:59Speaker 2: you the job seeking in effit so long as you
- 30:01Speaker 2: peep up with your requirements until you find a job
- 30:04Speaker 2: in the district.
- 30:06Speaker 7: Well, a're simply not there. Ryan The jobs that these
- 30:09Speaker 7: people are accustomed to just simply not there. So you
- 30:13Speaker 7: can't just force people into other work that not skill
- 30:16Speaker 7: haven't got the skill sets. A lot of the people
- 30:18Speaker 7: that you know, the government is trying to focus on,
- 30:20Speaker 7: as I understand, the people that hadn't had jobs for
- 30:23Speaker 7: some time, so those jobs seekers don't have licenses, and
- 30:27Speaker 7: it's just unfortunate that, you know, we do see cuts
- 30:30Speaker 7: in the areas like licensing for example. We understand next
- 30:34Speaker 7: year the people that deliver on licensing for example, I'm
- 30:38Speaker 7: going to lose their funding for people that vulnerable people
- 30:43Speaker 7: that need a license, they sometimes can't afford to, you know,
- 30:48Speaker 7: come in there and go through the process for a
- 30:50Speaker 7: car license. But that funding is cutting, has been cut.
- 30:53Speaker 7: So it's unfortunate that on one hand, you know, we're
- 30:56Speaker 7: trying to get people into work, and then the other
- 30:59Speaker 7: is that we hear that over funding going to be cut,
- 31:02Speaker 7: so we're trying to deal with that with EMST to
- 31:04Speaker 7: try and get that restated.
- 31:06Speaker 5: That's problem, I think.
- 31:07Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that the hard Leg and a whole
- 31:09Speaker 2: bunch of others did great work with those with licensing.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Western Thank you very much for that. Sounds like there's
- 31:14Speaker 2: not much of an issue, more of a storm and
- 31:16Speaker 2: teacup when it comes to claims that MSD would force
- 31:19Speaker 2: you to move and get out of town. Basically, if
- 31:24Speaker 2: you wanted to get yourself a benefit, it is eight
- 31:26Speaker 2: minutes away from six Newstalk said B.
- 31:29Speaker 3: News and Views you trust to start your day's early
- 31:32Speaker 3: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's furniture
- 31:36Speaker 3: Beds and a Flying Store.
- 31:37Speaker 2: News Talk said B. It is six away from six
- 31:40Speaker 2: news Talks. It'd be great to have your company. And
- 31:42Speaker 2: by the way, you can get five thousand dollars. We've
- 31:44Speaker 2: just spoken to Western Curtain d to a pay who district.
- 31:46Speaker 2: You can get five thousand dollars from work and income
- 31:49Speaker 2: to move. If you find a job in another district,
- 31:52Speaker 2: they will give you five thousand dollars. So long as
- 31:54Speaker 2: you don't leave that job within three months or study
- 31:57Speaker 2: within three months, they give you five grand to relocate.
- 32:00Speaker 2: Mike is here, whether that's Mike good Morning doesn't work.
- 32:02Speaker 12: You remember three cater Christ Church?
- 32:05Speaker 2: Yeah, I do remember three christ Christ Church, and no
- 32:08Speaker 2: one took it up. Virtually no one took it because
- 32:10Speaker 2: you've got family, your family roots and all that stuff's
- 32:13Speaker 2: more important. Hey, someone has just asked, and I've been
- 32:15Speaker 2: wanting to ask all morning, but I sort of haven't
- 32:17Speaker 2: had the bulls. How do they kill forty thousand chickens
- 32:21Speaker 2: from Jack?
- 32:21Speaker 12: It's a very good question, don't know, but we've got
- 32:24Speaker 12: some chicken people on and they will I'm sure be
- 32:26Speaker 12: able to tell guests them. I'm guessing, well, you know
- 32:32Speaker 12: why why are you upset? Why are you upset? But
- 32:34Speaker 12: well it's when you when you have a chicken on
- 32:36Speaker 12: your plate. How do you think it died?
- 32:38Speaker 2: Well, honestly, I don't want to. I don't think about
- 32:41Speaker 2: it too.
- 32:41Speaker 12: Much, do you know, Well maybe you shouldn't. That's life
- 32:44Speaker 12: on the land, right.
- 32:44Speaker 2: Yeah, a practical slaughter of poultry. There's an online guide
- 32:50Speaker 2: checking off. You've got to get off the dark web.
- 32:54Speaker 2: Chicken should be picked up by placing both hands securely
- 32:57Speaker 2: over the wings to prevent flapping.
- 32:59Speaker 12: I don't think they can do and forty thousand times
- 33:01Speaker 12: because that's labor intended.
- 33:05Speaker 9: That is not it.
- 33:05Speaker 2: I don't.
- 33:06Speaker 12: I don't think fingers crossed touch would that it's that serious?
- 33:10Speaker 2: No, it's out well it's it sounds like it's not
- 33:12Speaker 2: the serious strain. And there was only one barn out
- 33:14Speaker 2: of four on the farm that was affected, which is
- 33:16Speaker 2: apparently a good sign too.
- 33:17Speaker 12: Anyway, Prime Minister on this morning, very good being a Tuesday,
- 33:20Speaker 12: and think of that pole. I give it no time whatsoever.
- 33:24Speaker 12: Freshwater as far as I know it's an international operator,
- 33:27Speaker 12: then you know they're not. They're not one of your regulars.
- 33:29Speaker 12: So it's got that touchy but weird kind of two
- 33:31Speaker 12: years out from an election. Might be right, might be wrong?
- 33:34Speaker 2: Who would know?
- 33:35Speaker 7: What?
- 33:35Speaker 2: Does it matter?
- 33:36Speaker 12: Exactly precisely? Ivan Cleary by the way, Oh very good.
- 33:39Speaker 12: After eight o'clock this morning. I like winners on my program,
- 33:42Speaker 12: Ryan and I.
- 33:44Speaker 2: Well you've got a loser.
- 33:47Speaker 12: Well I'll tell them that. I'll say, fortunately I've got
- 33:50Speaker 12: I said. Ryan says you're a loser. Chris, that's right.
- 33:53Speaker 12: Actually that's a good idea anyway. He both are with us.
