0:08
Speaker 1: for twenty twenty four on the early edition with Smith City,
0:12
Speaker 1: New Zealand's furniture vans and a play a store.
0:14
Speaker 2: News Talks, it'd be.
0:16
Speaker 3: Good morning, welcome to the start of your week. Is
0:17
Speaker 3: just gone six after five on News Talks, there'd be
0:20
Speaker 3: our lead interview just before six this morning. Are gangs
0:23
Speaker 3: running drugs through regional airports? And if they are, is
0:26
Speaker 3: that really a problem? Cop twenty nine a big cop
0:29
Speaker 3: out according to some. The UK's trial and giving cash
0:33
Speaker 3: directly to homeless people to get them off the streets?
0:36
Speaker 3: Is that going to work? We lived to London Andrew
0:38
Speaker 3: here was sport plus your kids and vaping? Is it
0:42
Speaker 3: getting worse or not? Conflicting numbers this morning?
0:47
Speaker 2: The agenda.
0:48
Speaker 3: It is Monday, the twenty fifth of November. Many are
0:51
Speaker 3: calling the climate change conference in Azerbaijan a cop out.
0:55
Speaker 3: So the poor countries, as I told you last week,
0:57
Speaker 3: they wanted one point three trillion dollars one point three
1:01
Speaker 3: trillion dollars to cope with the impacts of climate change.
1:05
Speaker 3: How much did they get? Three hundred billion?
1:11
Speaker 4: This document is nothing more than an optical illusion.
1:16
Speaker 5: This in our opinion will not address.
1:19
Speaker 1: The enormity of the challenge.
1:21
Speaker 2: We all fess.
1:22
Speaker 5: Therefore, we oppose the adoption of this document.
1:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of people didn't like it. A lot
1:29
Speaker 3: of poorer countries didn't like it, and then a lot
1:31
Speaker 3: of rich countries didn't like it either. Hundreds of volunteers
1:36
Speaker 3: have helped to refloat around forty pilot whales. This is
1:39
Speaker 3: a mass stranding in Rocaka Beach north of Auckland. Project
1:43
Speaker 3: Jonah says there is a risk that whales might become
1:46
Speaker 3: restranded in the coming days. Three adults and one calf
1:50
Speaker 3: died in the stranding. It's very sad and I hate
1:52
Speaker 3: seeing this happen. But can we please stop calling them
1:55
Speaker 3: pilot whales because they're clearly not really good. The body
1:59
Speaker 3: of a missing in the United Arab Emirates has been
2:02
Speaker 3: found in what Israel has called a criminal anti Semitic
2:06
Speaker 3: terrorist incident. It's understood he was abducted last week.
2:10
Speaker 6: The suspicion here is that he was abducted, taken away,
2:14
Speaker 6: possibly driven across the border into Immand. But the suspects
2:18
Speaker 6: are three Uzbek nationals, according to the Israeli media, who
2:22
Speaker 6: are reported to have fled to Turkey.
2:25
Speaker 3: The Helen Clark Foundation this morning has a new report
2:28
Speaker 3: out you'll be delighted to know. It's calling for a
2:31
Speaker 3: sugary drinks levy to help curb our obesity rates. Says
2:35
Speaker 3: obesity is a complex problem, one of those ones. But anyway,
2:39
Speaker 3: I'll get to the details of that in just a second.
2:41
Speaker 3: It is eight after.
2:42
Speaker 2: Five Ryan Bridge New for twenty twenty four on early
2:47
Speaker 2: edition with Smith City, New Zealand's furniture beds and a
2:50
Speaker 2: playing store news dog.
2:52
Speaker 3: Zidby nine two ninety two is the number to text,
2:54
Speaker 3: would love to hear from you this morning. The front
2:56
Speaker 3: page of the Herald is caught on camera. This is
3:00
Speaker 3: the police officer who's wearing a I don't even know
3:03
Speaker 3: what the gang is, but wearing a gang patch in
3:06
Speaker 3: the office. They've obviously confiscated it now. This is before
3:10
Speaker 3: the band came and took effect. So this is from
3:13
Speaker 3: a few months ago, but the photo was only just
3:15
Speaker 3: surfacing now, which is less than ideal for the police.
3:20
Speaker 3: Do you care. I don't care. I mean I would
3:22
Speaker 3: expect if I was a police officer and I spent
3:25
Speaker 3: all day and all night going after I don't know
3:28
Speaker 3: drug cartels or gangs, and then I finally get, you know,
3:33
Speaker 3: a bit of a booty. I would probably take photos
3:36
Speaker 3: with all the cash and the guns, you know. I mean,
3:40
Speaker 3: you wouldn't put it on the internet. And I don't
3:42
Speaker 3: know who put this on the internet, but it was
3:44
Speaker 3: stupid of them. But is that really a big deal?
3:47
Speaker 3: Is that more of a storm? And a teacup nineteen
3:49
Speaker 3: nine two the number to text now. Some of the
3:51
Speaker 3: feedback from police on the gang patch itself has been
3:54
Speaker 3: quite entertaining, so that along with two arrests in the
3:57
Speaker 3: Eastern district over the weekend for people wearing their gang patches,
4:01
Speaker 3: there was a twenty year old man apparently arrested in
4:04
Speaker 3: Napier late on Saturday night for two bail breaches, but
4:08
Speaker 3: also for wearing a bandanna, a mangralmov Bang bandana which
4:15
Speaker 3: was tied to his steering wheel, and so he was
4:17
Speaker 3: able to be done for that anyway. There are a
4:20
Speaker 3: few false alarms and the police have let us know that.
4:22
Speaker 3: In Tuaco, a member of the public called police at
4:25
Speaker 3: nine forty five am yesterday reporting a large number of
4:28
Speaker 3: motorcycles and cars traveling in convoy, which the caller believed
4:33
Speaker 3: were gang related due to their matching clothing. A call
4:38
Speaker 3: of further reported the group were blocking traffic and traveling
4:40
Speaker 3: on the wrong side of the road. Police attended and
4:42
Speaker 3: located the group on River Road. The group was spoken to.
4:45
Speaker 3: They advised police they were shooting a video for a
4:48
Speaker 3: clothing brand, so they weren't gang memt Well, I mean
4:51
Speaker 3: they might have been gang members and maybe this is
4:53
Speaker 3: part of their new drive. You know, I can't wear
4:55
Speaker 3: the patch or sell T shirts. In Madamarua, a motorcycle
5:00
Speaker 3: local writer was pulled over by police and State Highway
5:02
Speaker 3: two at four forty pm yesterday. The man in his
5:05
Speaker 3: fifties was wearing a Tribal National Motorcycle Club patch. Tribal
5:12
Speaker 3: National Motorcycle Club patch. Our officers inquired into the club
5:16
Speaker 3: and it was confirmed that they were not a gang.
5:19
Speaker 3: So there you go. Few false alarms, but they had
5:21
Speaker 3: made a few rests over the weekend. So there you go.
5:23
Speaker 3: Eleven minutes after five Bridge Bridge. So I'll let you
5:29
Speaker 3: know what is in Helen Clark's Foundation report out this
5:32
Speaker 3: morning on obesity. None of it will really surprise you.
5:35
Speaker 3: But also over in the UK they're giving cash to
5:38
Speaker 3: the homeless. I'll tell you that story too, will Sue,
5:43
Speaker 3: I will be your as nasky longer.
5:50
Speaker 2: The first word on the News of the Day early
5:54
Speaker 2: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's furniture
5:57
Speaker 2: beds at a playing store.
5:59
Speaker 3: You talk said, by the way, that's the Azerbaijean Conference
6:04
Speaker 3: on Climate Change COP twenty nine that everybody says has
6:06
Speaker 3: been a bit of a let down. There's a new
6:09
Speaker 3: conference starting next week about plastics and rubbish in the ocean.
6:14
Speaker 3: I'll tell you more about that in a second. It
6:16
Speaker 3: has just gone fourteen after five year on news talks at.
6:18
Speaker 2: Been Ryan Bridge.
6:20
Speaker 3: New data this morning from the Asthma and Respiratory Foundation
6:23
Speaker 3: has found that youth vaping rates have dropped more than
6:26
Speaker 3: fifty percent over the past three years. It's a survey
6:30
Speaker 3: shows that just twelve percent of nine to thirteen students
6:34
Speaker 3: had VAPD in the last seven days when the survey
6:37
Speaker 3: was done. It was down from twenty seven percent in
6:40
Speaker 3: twenty twenty one. Lea Tisha Harding is the Asthma and
6:43
Speaker 3: Respiratory Foundation New Zealand chief executive. She's with me this morning.
6:46
Speaker 3: Good morning, Good morning, Ryan, thank you for being here.
6:50
Speaker 3: Now is this fly in the face of other stats
6:52
Speaker 3: we've just had recently about youth vaping.
6:55
Speaker 7: No, Actually, if you look at the New Zeland Health
6:58
Speaker 7: survey that was put out last week, it's a similar story.
7:01
Speaker 7: We've found that that younger group has actually declined in vaping,
7:07
Speaker 7: but the older group is actually the one which has increased.
7:12
Speaker 7: So it is actually in line with what the New
7:14
Speaker 7: Zealand Health Survey was showing as well.
7:17
Speaker 3: So you think that your theory is that the younger
7:21
Speaker 3: people who are not vaping as much as the older ones,
7:25
Speaker 3: that's new regulations that's changed that.
7:28
Speaker 7: Yeah, definitely, we think it's the regulations and also the
7:31
Speaker 7: education around the harms of vaping and the awareness out there.
7:36
Speaker 7: I think that's had a big impact. But as I said,
7:38
Speaker 7: although overall we've seen a reduction compared to when we
7:41
Speaker 7: ran our twenty twenty one survey, so we reported vaping
7:45
Speaker 7: of twelve point two percent back then, now compared to
7:49
Speaker 7: twenty six percent in the year thirteen. That's dramatically increased
7:54
Speaker 7: to twenty six percent having vaped in the last seven days,
7:57
Speaker 7: whereas it was only twelve percent and twenty twenty one.
8:01
Speaker 7: So this sort of stands to reason if we look
8:03
Speaker 7: at our year ten eleven, twelve thirteen, that was actually
8:07
Speaker 7: reducing back in twenty twenty one, but it's increased in
8:11
Speaker 7: this survey.
8:12
Speaker 3: Right. Why do you think that is?
8:15
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's because if we look at when
8:16
Speaker 7: regulations came and even the R eighteen, the restriction of
8:19
Speaker 7: buying nictine containing vapes, that wasn't until November of twenty twenty,
8:25
Speaker 7: and of course we ran the first survey in August
8:28
Speaker 7: of twenty twenty one. So you've got this group that
8:31
Speaker 7: had very little regulations around taking up vaping and some
8:34
Speaker 7: of very very high nicotine doses as well, because of
8:37
Speaker 7: course back then the nicotine containing vapes had up to
8:41
Speaker 7: fifty fifty three milligrams of nicotine in them. So you've
8:44
Speaker 7: got this group that has probably become quite addicted to
8:48
Speaker 7: these nicotine vates and that's carried on through.
8:51
Speaker 3: Half of those that were surveyed said that vaping was
8:54
Speaker 3: harming their health. Does that mean the other half thing?
8:56
Speaker 3: It's fine?
8:59
Speaker 8: Yeah.
9:00
Speaker 7: When we run the survey, we get obviously a lot
9:03
Speaker 7: of anecdotal evidence from how people feel about their vaping,
9:08
Speaker 7: and that certainly came through that it was impacting their house,
9:13
Speaker 7: especially these older students. They talk about things like how
9:16
Speaker 7: it affects their sports. They're finding they're out of breath
9:19
Speaker 7: when they've been vaping, and of course some of them
9:21
Speaker 7: are actually waiting in the middle of the night to
9:23
Speaker 7: vape as well, which is of huge concern.
9:26
Speaker 3: That's not good. So what do you want to do
9:29
Speaker 3: about it? One of the things is to increase the
9:31
Speaker 3: age to twenty one.
9:34
Speaker 7: Yeah, there's several recommendations and slowly, I guess, I think
9:37
Speaker 7: with New Zealand we have slowly done this piecemeal approach
9:41
Speaker 7: to regulations over the years, but unfortunately it has been
9:45
Speaker 7: just that it's coming in with reducing them a teen
9:47
Speaker 7: content which has been pushing for to be in line
9:50
Speaker 7: with the EU at twenty milligrams, and that's across the
9:52
Speaker 7: disposable vapes and of coursely syllable vapes. Increasing the age,
9:57
Speaker 7: but also the advertising being able to see the products
10:00
Speaker 7: from the front store window or going into general retailers
10:03
Speaker 7: and seeing these products. That hope is going to change
10:06
Speaker 7: next year with the new amendment till to the Smoke
10:10
Speaker 7: Free and we Get Products Bill, and obviously we've submitted
10:13
Speaker 7: into that and we're hoping to see that actually come
10:15
Speaker 7: to puistion next year because that advertising would have a
10:17
Speaker 7: big impact.
10:19
Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely, all right, attention, thank you very much for
10:21
Speaker 3: your time this morning. Lautensha Harding Esthma and Rich Respiratory Foundation,
10:25
Speaker 3: New Zealand chief executive with new numbers out this morning
10:27
Speaker 3: on vaping, twenty six percent of kids of older teenagers vaping.
10:34
Speaker 3: That's not great, is it. I think there's more teenagers
10:37
Speaker 3: vaping today than ever smoked, which I suppose it's what
10:42
Speaker 3: they tell us. It's a bit healthier than smoking, so
10:44
Speaker 3: I guess that might make sense. And it's not as
10:46
Speaker 3: much older and you know, you don't smell when you
10:48
Speaker 3: kiss each other, et cetera. But it's not great? Is it?
10:52
Speaker 3: Just gone? Nineteen minutes after five news Talks ever.
10:55
Speaker 2: Get ahead of the headlines? Ryan Bridge, you for twenty
10:59
Speaker 2: twenty four on early edition with Smith City, New Zealand's
11:03
Speaker 2: furniture beds and a playing store on News Talks, say'd.
11:05
Speaker 3: Be at twenty one after five year O news talk
11:08
Speaker 3: Sai'd be great to have your company this Monday morning.
11:11
Speaker 3: Andrew Alison is here was sport good morning Greeting's Ryan,
11:14
Speaker 3: so good news for was shtup and not so much
11:16
Speaker 3: for Liam Lawson.
11:18
Speaker 9: Yeah, so the trip to Sin City with the Formula
11:22
Speaker 9: One drivers as a resulted in Lawson was sixteenth place,
11:26
Speaker 9: So not in the points this time. Probably understandable that
11:30
Speaker 9: he's going to just have to work his way in
11:32
Speaker 9: here even though he's only got these limited number of
11:34
Speaker 9: races to work with to establish himself on the circuit.
11:38
Speaker 3: But really the story.
11:38
Speaker 9: Probably max with Stapan of the day four consecutive Formula
11:43
Speaker 9: One drivers championships, joins an A League Group one, Manuel Fangio,
11:47
Speaker 9: Michael Schumacher, Sebastian Vettel and Sir Lewis Hamilton. It's a
11:51
Speaker 9: fairly alite.
11:52
Speaker 3: Crowd, prestigious. Agree, That's that's right, That's right. I got
11:56
Speaker 3: up to watch the Well, I didn't get up that early,
11:58
Speaker 3: did I because it was like nineteen am, but myself
12:04
Speaker 3: out of being the mid morning oil. Yeah yeah yeah,
12:10
Speaker 3: patch yea was not convincing.
12:14
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's probably more the off field stuff than anything.
12:16
Speaker 10: Is that.
12:17
Speaker 9: With tj PA introducing the white hanging into the Haka,
12:24
Speaker 9: which has gone well, I think I think there's some
12:27
Speaker 9: controversy around there, and I mean, to me, the Harker
12:30
Speaker 9: is meant to be a challenge to the opposition. I'm
12:32
Speaker 9: not quite sure.
12:33
Speaker 3: Maybe t J.
12:34
Speaker 9: Pedar could explain it better, but yeah, and it's attempted
12:37
Speaker 9: to but I'm not sure how that comes into challenging
12:40
Speaker 9: the opposition but bringing in the supposed unity at home,
12:44
Speaker 9: et cetera that he has mentioned. So yeah, it's it's
12:47
Speaker 9: politicizing the situation. But then politics are always in sport
12:51
Speaker 9: in one way, shape or form, aren't they. So it's yeah,
12:56
Speaker 9: it's it's a tricky one.
13:00
Speaker 3: The Black Foils the sales GP and yes.
13:02
Speaker 9: A tremendous start from there. So winning off the coast
13:06
Speaker 9: Dubai that's the opening series of the season for them.
13:10
Speaker 9: And now they'll take their their talents and their skills
13:13
Speaker 9: and their technology to New Zealand to Auckland for the
13:15
Speaker 9: first time January eighteen and nineteen, which will be quite
13:17
Speaker 9: the extravaganza in the White Mazar Harbor.
13:20
Speaker 3: I'm lucky to thought of that.
13:21
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that should be good fun. So yeah,
13:24
Speaker 9: leading the championship and defending their title.
13:26
Speaker 3: There, brilliant Andrew, thank you very much for that. Thanks
13:28
Speaker 3: all right, So here's always Andrew Willison was zi BI Sport.
13:30
Speaker 3: It is twenty three minutes after five you're on news Talks,
13:34
Speaker 3: there'd be still to come. We're going to our UK
13:36
Speaker 3: Europe correspondent, Kay Oliver. There is a push to do
13:41
Speaker 3: the end of life bill like the one we did here,
13:44
Speaker 3: giving those terminally ill adults the chance to know, basically
13:50
Speaker 3: say goodbye a little early. Lots of pushback on that though,
13:53
Speaker 3: and Kay will explain that to us. That's coming up
13:56
Speaker 3: after the news at five point thirty.
13:58
Speaker 2: The early edition full show podcast on i AM Radio.
14:02
Speaker 2: How It By News Talks have been.
14:04
Speaker 3: Your news Talks be twenty six minutes after five. Remember
14:07
Speaker 3: the excitement, the pride at being first, the proclamations of
14:12
Speaker 3: cleaning up our world and making it better for tomorrow.
14:15
Speaker 3: I'm talking about the single plastic use bag band on
14:19
Speaker 3: twenty eighteen. Remember that. A few salient points to note
14:23
Speaker 3: this morning, six years on from when it was announced.
14:26
Speaker 3: There's a report out this morning on plastics. The use
14:30
Speaker 3: of plastic is expected to treble globally by twenty sixty,
14:34
Speaker 3: most of it in Africa and Asia. Plastic waste will
14:38
Speaker 3: also treble by twenty sixty. Half of it will end
14:42
Speaker 3: up in the landfill. Less than a fifth of it
14:46
Speaker 3: will be recycled, so well done. You know our pack
14:50
Speaker 3: and save efforts, we're really doing well for the world.
14:53
Speaker 3: Who's profiting from this? That's the other thing I wonder.
14:57
Speaker 3: I don't know how much supermarkets make every time I
15:00
Speaker 3: forget my reusable plastic bags and I have to buy
15:03
Speaker 3: the paper ones. But the price of the paper one
15:05
Speaker 3: the other day that I paid was forty cents, and
15:08
Speaker 3: I can remember when they first started telling them, it
15:10
Speaker 3: was like ten or twenty cents, So there's been a
15:12
Speaker 3: bit of inflation going on since then. And now they've
15:16
Speaker 3: got Christmas trees printed on them. How much extra is
15:20
Speaker 3: that costing. I don't want a Christmas tree on my
15:24
Speaker 3: paper bag, thank you very much. I want the paper
15:27
Speaker 3: bag not to break just because I put some wet
15:29
Speaker 3: milk in it, so annoying. In Australia, coson Wall was
15:34
Speaker 3: apparently profit. This was after they changed their rules, profits
15:39
Speaker 3: seventy one million dollars a year off their reusable bags.
15:45
Speaker 3: Now I don't know what the number is here. I
15:47
Speaker 3: have no idea, but I would have thought we'd be
15:52
Speaker 3: asking ourselves a few questions. Do I want us going
15:54
Speaker 3: back to plastic bags? No, I don't necessarily want us
15:57
Speaker 3: going back to plastic bags, but could we please know
16:01
Speaker 3: a couple of things. Where are our bags actually ending
16:06
Speaker 3: up in the ocean in the first place or was
16:08
Speaker 3: that other people's bags? You know, were you throwing your
16:11
Speaker 3: plastic bag in the ocean when you went and checked
16:13
Speaker 3: the beach? Were the bags from Countdown New Zealand? I
16:18
Speaker 3: don't know? And how much are the supermarkets making out
16:22
Speaker 3: of us for the bags that break before we get
16:24
Speaker 3: them to the boot of our cars. Just a couple
16:27
Speaker 3: of things I'd like to know. Twenty eight minutes after
16:30
Speaker 3: five year on news Talk said be Bryan Bridge, lots
16:33
Speaker 3: of feedback coming in about TJ. Petanara as well, and
16:36
Speaker 3: I wonder what people think of that personally. I guess
16:43
Speaker 3: the counterfacture would be if somebody came out and said,
16:46
Speaker 3: you know, a captain after an All Blacks game came
16:50
Speaker 3: out and said, yeah, well it's a great game, but
16:52
Speaker 3: first of all, I'd like to declare my allegiance to democracy,
16:56
Speaker 3: you know, or make some kind of political statement like that.
16:59
Speaker 3: Would we That was okay? I don't know. It was
17:02
Speaker 3: his prerogative apparently because he was leading the hackers, so
17:05
Speaker 3: he can he can make the points he wants to
17:07
Speaker 3: make twenty nine after five, you're on news Talk ZIDB.
17:10

Speaker 3: drugs through regional airports, thereby skipping the scanners and the
18:16
Speaker 3: X ray machines, et cetera. Does it actually matter whether
18:20
Speaker 3: they're running their drugs on a domestic flight or on
18:24
Speaker 3: a bus or in a car. We'll speak to the
18:27
Speaker 3: Airlines Association about that shortly. Lots of your feedback on
18:30
Speaker 3: TJ Pedanada. As you can understand, Ryan, I am fuming
18:34
Speaker 3: that Pedanada brought politics into the All blacks Hacker says
18:39
Speaker 3: this listener. Sports is sports, politics is politics. Let's keep
18:42
Speaker 3: it that way. Sport is the only place you can
18:45
Speaker 3: go to get away from politics, and I resent its
18:48
Speaker 3: creep back into sport. Yeah, I suppose. My question is
18:53
Speaker 3: because I don't really care how don't have a problem
18:56
Speaker 3: with what happened, But would it be okay someone to
19:00
Speaker 3: come out and pledge allegiance to capitalism and the free market,
19:05
Speaker 3: you know, and the economy and democracy, you know, before
19:09
Speaker 3: or after a match? And if that was okay, then
19:12
Speaker 3: fill your boots. I mean, it's all for one, one
19:15
Speaker 3: for all, isn't it. Twenty two away from six News

20:13
Speaker 3: netball community and the use of Hagley Park.
20:17
Speaker 4: Yeah, so those who know netball will know that Hagley
20:20
Speaker 4: Park is the home of the majority of the netball
20:22
Speaker 4: courts down here. The Netball Center now is wanting to
20:24
Speaker 4: extend the lease from the city Council that's due to
20:27
Speaker 4: end in April twenty twenty six. It's purpose built indoor
20:31
Speaker 4: facility with ten courts, opened a year ago and is

Speaker 4: used for multiple sports. The center is now busy surveying
20:37
Speaker 4: the community, the netball community, specifically so it can collect
20:41
Speaker 4: evidence to present to council. Board chair Warren Poe says
20:44
Speaker 4: the Hagley courts are cost efficient and used by a
20:46
Speaker 4: large number of players. He says they're focused on demonstrating
20:49

Speaker 3: Thank you, mix is and willing to mix. Good morning
21:02
Speaker 3: to you. This stolen parrot we spoke about on Friday,
21:05
Speaker 3: it's been found.
21:07
Speaker 12: Yeah, you wouldn't. You wouldn't read about it. Quite a
21:09
Speaker 12: wonderful end to what was looking like quite a sad story.
21:13
Speaker 12: This sixty year old visitor favorite Stagland's cockatoo pepper, which
21:18
Speaker 12: was stolen from the wildlife reserve last week. It was
21:22
Speaker 12: sold on the black market or something. I presumed the
21:25
Speaker 12: new owners realized what they'd bought, alerted police and the
21:29
Speaker 12: talking parodi is heading back to Stagland's. Far be it
21:32
Speaker 12: from us to take something of a victory lap. But
21:34
Speaker 12: we gave quite good coverage to the theft last week.
21:37
Speaker 12: We were first to report, published an item in the Herald,
21:40
Speaker 12: and police say media coverage directly led to the break
21:42
Speaker 12: in the case. Stagland's very delighted. I'm sure the bird
21:46
Speaker 12: itself happy too. No word on the thief or thieves
21:50
Speaker 12: themselves yet police in no comment there, but a happy ending.
21:54
Speaker 3: Nonetheless, goodness, we would be without U Mex. Do you
21:58
Speaker 3: know how much it's sold for?
22:01
Speaker 12: I believe it was in it crept into the four figures.
22:04
Speaker 12: I'm not sure if the good Samaritans who handed it
22:07
Speaker 12: in will get that money back, but not cheap.
22:10
Speaker 3: All right, how's your weather? Fine? Fresh northerlies.

22:37

25:14
Speaker 3: Okay, Oliver as our UK europe correspondent, k great to
25:17
Speaker 3: have you on the program. Tell us about the end
25:19
Speaker 3: of life bill some quite heavy hitting opposition to it.
25:24
Speaker 10: Well, absolutely, Ryan, Yes, and it is going to have
25:28
Speaker 10: a vote in Parliament this Friday. It's called the Terminally
25:32
Speaker 10: Ill Adults end of Life Bill that's been proposed by
25:35
Speaker 10: the Labor MP Kim Leadbetter and basically it would give
25:40
Speaker 10: those with less than six months to live the right
25:43
Speaker 10: to die. Now the opposition is mounting and we have
25:48
Speaker 10: had the Health Secretary West streeting and now the Justice
25:52
Speaker 10: Secretary Shabanama Mood saying that they are going to vote
25:56
Speaker 10: against this bill. Ms Mahmood has put out a letter
26:00
Speaker 10: to her constituents today saying that no government should be
26:04
Speaker 10: able to offer death on demand, and that she also
26:09
Speaker 10: worries about placing so great a destructive power in the
26:15
Speaker 10: hands of the state. She cites sadly recent scandals have
26:21
Speaker 10: reminded us that the state and those acting on its
26:24
Speaker 10: behalf are not always benign. So it gives you some
26:28
Speaker 10: flavor of the opposition that's coming through on this Ryan.
26:31
Speaker 10: We wait to see what happens on Friday, but it
26:35
Speaker 10: would seem that in a poll that's been carried out today,
26:38
Speaker 10: two thirds of the population here are in favor of
26:42
Speaker 10: this bill.
26:44
Speaker 3: Yeah, it sounds like it might get thrown despite that
26:46
Speaker 3: opposition from the you know, even the health sictu as
26:49
Speaker 3: you mentioned. So this Bert, the storm Bert that's coming
26:53
Speaker 3: well already started to come in already, some lives lost.
26:58
Speaker 10: Well, absolutely, it's ra around as I'm speaking. I live
27:01
Speaker 10: close to London. But there's a danger to life warning.
27:04
Speaker 10: We've had three people already been killed. A motorist has
27:09
Speaker 10: had a tree smash onto the car. We've got a
27:11
Speaker 10: dog walker killed, et cetera. We've got seventy flood warnings
27:15
Speaker 10: across South Wales where they've declared a major incident in
27:20
Speaker 10: the Rohonda region. We've got thirty one thousand homes in
27:25
Speaker 10: Northern Ireland without power. We've got rivers rising, people's sandbagging
27:30
Speaker 10: all over, and lots of people, particularly in Yorkshire, saying
27:34
Speaker 10: that the local authorities haven't been taking any notice of
27:38
Speaker 10: warnings that basically their homes are liable to flood though.
27:43
Speaker 10: You've got a siren screaming out that was used in
27:47
Speaker 10: World War two to warn people that they're in danger.
27:51
Speaker 10: So also in London they've canceled. There's a big Winter
27:54
Speaker 10: Wonderland celebration in Hbark that's been scrapped today, along with
27:58
Speaker 10: nine other major parks that have been closed as this
28:02
Speaker 10: what's called a triple weather alert involving snow, rain and
28:06
Speaker 10: gale force winds. Carry on battering this country.
28:10
Speaker 3: Goodness mate, all right, well take care there. Kk Oliver,
28:13
Speaker 3: our UK europe correspondent, just going to living away from
28:16
Speaker 3: six Bridge. Gang members are apparently using regional flights to
28:21
Speaker 3: traffic drugs around the country, making the most of the
28:23
Speaker 3: lower levels of security at our regional airports. Currently, the
28:27
Speaker 3: security settings mean that flights with fewer than ninety seats
28:31
Speaker 3: or less than ninety seats on board are unlikely to
28:34
Speaker 3: go through security screening. Now the government says they're not
28:36
Speaker 3: going to do much about this. It's a problem for
28:39
Speaker 3: the police. Billy Mooresdeen, he's done on Airport's Association chief
28:42
Speaker 3: executive and is with us this morning. Good morning, Billy, Ryan,
28:45
Speaker 3: thank you for being with me. Is this a big problem?
28:48
Speaker 3: For you guys.
28:50
Speaker 8: Look at there's a concern that is regularly discussed among
28:54
Speaker 8: the airport's airlines in the Civil Aviation Authority, something we're
28:58
Speaker 8: aware of consumed. But it's important for us to focus
29:03
Speaker 8: on the fact that the purpose of passenger and bakers
29:06
Speaker 8: screening is aviation security, and so that means I'm more
29:09
Speaker 8: for interference with aircraft. These issues are about other illegal
29:14
Speaker 8: activities and are a meta for the police rather than
29:17
Speaker 8: aviation security. So while we talk about this in the
29:21
Speaker 8: context of security at airports, it's operation in. Some of
29:28
Speaker 8: their issues are that we can take though.
29:31
Speaker 3: You're really just more worried about someone bringing a plane down,
29:34
Speaker 3: aren't you, I mean, rather than exactly yeah, because I
29:37
Speaker 3: mean does it actually matter. I mean, obviously it's not
29:39
Speaker 3: ideal for you, but if the drugs are going to go,
29:43
Speaker 3: they could go on an intercity bus, they could go
29:45
Speaker 3: on the back of a car, you know what I mean.
29:48
Speaker 8: Yeah, you're right about that. Look, there are concerns around
29:51
Speaker 8: this in terms of the overall security environment at airports
29:55
Speaker 8: when things like this are going on. Obviously it's a
29:57
Speaker 8: concern for us because it makes the security environment more tense,
30:02
Speaker 8: more and more difficult. Terms the people around and the
30:06
Speaker 8: things that airports are being used for. But there are
30:09
Speaker 8: steps we can take. For instance, we think that a
30:11
Speaker 8: stronger and more consistent police presence at airports is a
30:15
Speaker 8: really good step forward, and we're trying to engage authority
30:19
Speaker 8: and others on how that could happen. So that's something
30:21
Speaker 8: that we know both airports and airlines would like to see.
30:24
Speaker 3: Would you like to see permanent police officers at all
30:28
Speaker 3: regional airports?
30:30
Speaker 8: Not necessarily going that far, but really strong relationships is
30:35
Speaker 8: important so that the police in that area have a
30:39
Speaker 8: great engagement with airport staff, with airline staff, so that
30:43
Speaker 8: that information flow is going so that they're familiar with,
30:47
Speaker 8: for instance, the airside environment as well. So there's still
30:49
Speaker 8: some steps we can take there that would help this
30:52
Speaker 8: kind of situation.
30:53
Speaker 3: All right, Billy, thank you very much for that this morning,
30:54
Speaker 3: Billy More of the New Zealand Airports Association Chief Executive.
30:58
Speaker 3: You're on News Talks there, b It is a toy.
31:01
Speaker 2: News and views you trust to start your day. It's
31:04
Speaker 2: early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's
31:07
Speaker 2: Furniture Beds and a Flying Store.
31:09
Speaker 3: News Talks a B six Away from six on News Talks,
31:12
Speaker 3: D be very quickly. I told you, I'll tell you
31:14
Speaker 3: about the Hall and Clark Foundation. They've got a report
31:16
Speaker 3: out this morning on obesity. Surprise, surprise. We a third
31:21
Speaker 3: of us are living with obesity or a third of
31:23
Speaker 3: us robs it should say, are overweight. That is the
31:26
Speaker 3: third highest rate in the OECD. It cost US nine
31:30
Speaker 3: billion dollars a year in lost productivity. Their solution one
31:34
Speaker 3: is basically a sugar tax, two is better education and
31:39
Speaker 3: stopping the sale of sugary drinks and hospitals, et cetera.
31:43
Speaker 3: And the third one is basically load us up with ozempic.
31:47
Speaker 3: It's five to six News Talks at.
31:49
Speaker 2: B Bryan Bridge.
31:50
Speaker 3: Mike is up next. Good morning, Mike, good morning. Good
31:53
Speaker 3: to see you and you. This is some pilot weil stranding.
31:57
Speaker 3: You know where we have these from time to time.
32:00
Speaker 3: Why do they call them pilot wales because they're clearing
32:03
Speaker 3: not really good, you know what I mean?
32:05
Speaker 13: Have you ever responded?
32:07
Speaker 3: No?
32:07
Speaker 13: I haven't, but I've never been you have been tempted? Okay,
32:11
Speaker 13: so you're on holiday, you're in the able testment.
32:13
Speaker 3: Right, I'd go down. Would you have how long for? Well,
32:16
Speaker 3: until they've refloated.
32:17
Speaker 13: So, okay, so you've got sixty seven whales, the call's
32:20
Speaker 13: gone out, you're on the able test.
32:22
Speaker 3: Four days later.
32:22
Speaker 13: Four days later, you're waiting and you've got hypothermia.
32:26
Speaker 3: Apparently you haven't been fed properly. You're fainting. Apparently. Apparently
32:30
Speaker 3: they follow one sick whale that's navigating and they get
32:34
Speaker 3: disorientated and then they all end up stranded. I mean,
32:37
Speaker 3: so what happens?
32:37
Speaker 13: Would you go a second time? Because that happens? So
32:41
Speaker 13: what happens is you go to float them out and
32:42
Speaker 13: then they come back in on the tide?
32:44
Speaker 6: Do you go?
32:45
Speaker 13: How long do you stay there?
32:46
Speaker 3: I love the suicidal, aren't they?
32:47
Speaker 13: There's an element to it.
32:50
Speaker 3: But right, what's on the show today?
32:52
Speaker 13: Oh, we're going to I mean yet again, we're going
32:54
Speaker 13: to talk about this business of schools and the number
32:57
Speaker 13: of kids who are leaving.
32:58
Speaker 3: Oh yeah.
33:00
Speaker 13: Having had five kids go through school, you know, and
33:03
Speaker 13: having I think, to be fair, as any parent would
33:06
Speaker 13: with kids, a pretty reasonable understanding of how the education
33:09
Speaker 13: system works. There's no question that what happened post COVID.
33:13
Speaker 13: Ask any teacher the kids who got locked up at
33:15
Speaker 13: home for an extended period of time, lost the ability somehow,
33:19
Speaker 13: some way to behave themselves, to interact properly, to take
33:23
Speaker 13: school seriously, socialized, to sit exams, to pass exams. You know,
33:27
Speaker 13: you've got a quarter of kids now leaving without level
33:30
Speaker 13: three or university entrants, and so what do.
33:33
Speaker 3: You do about that? You know, and once they leave,
33:35
Speaker 3: they're gone. They lost generation exact exactly anyway. But on
33:38
Speaker 3: school attendance, we used to have to go every day.
33:41
Speaker 3: There was it ain't like it used to be, right,
33:45
Speaker 3: unlike our day. It's coming up to three away from six.
33:49
Speaker 3: News Talk said be have a great day.
