• 0:19
  Speaker 3: does the business and we will talk about the Greens
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: and their wealth tax plan again.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: The agenda.
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: It is Monday, twenty second of June. We're waiting for
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: the hat to drop, basically for Starmer to just stand aside,
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: get out of the way, because Burnham has just won
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: the Makefield by election quite convincingly.
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: There will be no second chance, but it is a
• 0:41
  Speaker 4: chance now from this result tonight to build a new
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: politics based on unity and hope, turning away from the
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: path that takes us to a divided, dark politics of
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: the kine we see in the United States.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: Interesting peace and the economists over the weekend about the
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: direction the Britain will take post Brixit more on next
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: shortly First, Peter Carr, this is a laboring and p
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: on the BBC a short time ago, but he's.
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: Also taking the time to think through what the political
• 1:09
  Speaker 5: realities are today compared to last week, the week before.
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: But I know that he's a prime minister who always
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: puts the country first, and that he'll be framing every
• 1:18
  Speaker 5: decision that he makes today on behalf of the country
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: in his day to day job as prime minister, but
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: also when he thinks about the party going forward.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: And just for fun, Trump's jumped and he says Starmer
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: will resign. Andy wishes him well. Meanwhile, the US and
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: Ranian officials, they're starting talks and switch someone.
• 1:32
  Speaker 6: If they're willing to give up nuclear weapons ambitions and
• 1:35
  Speaker 6: for the long term, then the United States is willing
• 1:37
  Speaker 6: to fundamentally transform our relationship with that country. That is
• 1:41
  Speaker 6: certainly our goal. We've already made great progress over just
• 1:44
  Speaker 6: the last few hours, and I expect that we'll make
• 1:47
  Speaker 6: additional progress to the arist culp.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: And it's like groundhog Day that closing the straight again.
• 1:51
  Speaker 7: President Donald Trump has posted on social media. He said this,
• 1:55
  Speaker 7: Iran must immediately stop their highly paid poxes in Lebanon
• 2:00
  Speaker 7: from causing trouble. If they don't, we will hit around
• 2:03
  Speaker 7: very hard again, just like we did last week.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: Jer my Clarkson's cancer, prostate cancer in remission.
• 2:08
  Speaker 8: I'm perfectly fine, Mike. Only brows in particular are looking
• 2:13
  Speaker 8: very lustrous. And the reason why I'm fine is because
• 2:18
  Speaker 8: the doctor's caught the prostate cancer early, and they caught
• 2:22
  Speaker 8: it early because I got tested. Men die every year
• 2:27
  Speaker 8: from prostate cancer. Don't be one of them.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Get tested first.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge on early edition with Spark for business technology
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: that keeps business moving, news talks.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: It'd be then it's after five grade to heavy company.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: What does greedy mean? If someone says to you or
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: that that person's greedy, what do you immediately think of them?
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: And are we not all a little bit greedy? I
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: want to talk to you about greed this morning because
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: the Greens came to talk to you about about grad
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: and I will make this point and I'll make it
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: later on when we talked to eRx bit about this.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: But this is going nowhere, this policy. But I just
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: am fascinated by the word greed. This is a greed.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: They are greedy people anyone with money basically, And if
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: you look at the definition of greed, it's wanting a
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: lot more food or money than you actually need. Now,
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: Madima and Chloe earn about between them four hundred thousand
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: dollars in base salary. You add to that expenses, you
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: add to that travel. Are they greedy? The living wage
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: living wage in New Zealand that covers basic expenses, covers breathing, room,
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: for rest activities, saving for a rainy day. Even as
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: a living wage, now that's twenty nine bucks in an hour.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: It's about sixty two k a year. Chloe and Madima
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: earn at least three times that, triple what they need.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Does that make them greedy? No, I don't think it does. Personally.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I think it makes them ambitious. I think it means
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: they want better for their families. And good on them.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: They're two women are combined half a million dollars with
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: expenses and income. Congratulations, well done, Good on you, whether
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: you are super rich, whatever that means. By the way,
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: rich or poor. We're all greedy in one way or another,
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: aren't we. Some are just enjoying pointing the finger to
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: make themselves feel a bit better about it. News talks,
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: you'd be it is ten after five. We'll talk about
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: the details of.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: It next before the news breaks. Hear it first.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge on early edition with spark for business, technology
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: that keeps business moving, news talks that'd be jese.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: It was a twelve after bit of a walloping by
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: the Hurricanes over the weekend and shame for the Chiefs.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: Sixty five was the end result. Congratulations to the Canes.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: I told you they would do it this year. Reuben
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: Love describing what everyone kind of thinks Wellington is like
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: at the moment.
• 4:45
  Speaker 9: Living in Wellington's pretty tough and I don't want to
• 4:47
  Speaker 9: get political, but you know, people getting laid off jobs
• 4:49
  Speaker 9: and a lot of migration over Australian and personal friends
• 4:52
  Speaker 9: that I've had, you know, I've moved over just because
• 4:53
  Speaker 9: they've lost their jobs. And yeah, we just want to
• 4:54
  Speaker 9: make sure that all the people of the public, the
• 4:56
  Speaker 9: law and North Thailand, they're just proud to watch us
• 4:58
  Speaker 9: and especially callers.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Says sell Out.
• 5:00
  Speaker 9: I just know that there'll be a family that have
• 5:02
  Speaker 9: saved up money to come watch this game, or a
• 5:03
  Speaker 9: kid that's watching us and me for the first time,
• 5:06
  Speaker 9: and nice want to be able to give kids and
• 5:07
  Speaker 9: give people that experience.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: Good on them. He seems like a nice guy and
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: they've had a big victory. Thirteen after five. Ryan Greene's
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: pushing for this wealth tax, aiming to raise thirty two
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: billion dollars over four years. This is according to the
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: plan that they have put out, and they did so yesterday.
• 5:24
  Speaker 10: We are putting out a policy that will benefit the majority.
• 5:29
  Speaker 10: Ninety six percent of people will pay the same or
• 5:33
  Speaker 10: less income tax. Ninety nine point seven percent of the
• 5:37
  Speaker 10: population will not pay the super rich tax.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: Ninety six percent pay either the same or less. What's
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: the point in adding in the ones who are the same?
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: That is the question this morning. Sandy la Is with
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: us PwC Tax Partner. Sandy, Good morning, Good morning, Ray.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: Nice to have you on the program. So they reconnet
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: revenue five point three five billion and twenty seven to
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: twenty eight rising five point nine four billion by twenty
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: thirty one. Are there numbers all adding up to you?
• 6:07
  Speaker 11: Look, I think it is a case of it was.
• 6:10
  Speaker 11: I mean, I need to work out and figure out
• 6:13
  Speaker 11: whether the numbers is correct or not. But it would
• 6:16
  Speaker 11: seem to suggest that, based on the information that's in
• 6:19
  Speaker 11: the package, that they have really looking to more to
• 6:23
  Speaker 11: tax those that are wealthy and the big corporations, and
• 6:28
  Speaker 11: so it all adds up to that five point something
• 6:31
  Speaker 11: billion that you refer to.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: Do the wealth taxes work in other countries?
• 6:38
  Speaker 11: I think the wealth tax has is it's appealing in
• 6:43
  Speaker 11: some ways because and as the Green Parties one have suggested,
• 6:46
  Speaker 11: it only applies to a very limited number of people.
• 6:50
  Speaker 11: But in other countries what they've seen is that the
• 6:52
  Speaker 11: practicalities of it has been quite challenging to make up
• 6:56
  Speaker 11: work to make it worthwhile. So in a lot of
• 7:00
  Speaker 11: commentary has been around the compliance cost that might take
• 7:03
  Speaker 11: to collect the amount of tax that it will generate,
• 7:06
  Speaker 11: because you know things like valuation and if it'll be
• 7:10
  Speaker 11: there might be some well lowvel relief and sort of
• 7:13
  Speaker 11: delay in terms of cash pain that might I guess,
• 7:18
  Speaker 11: reduce the effectiveness of that. Oh well tech.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: All right, Sandy, appreciate your time. This wanting Sandy laid
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: with us PwC Tax part in. The time is quarter
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: past five. You're on NEWSTALKSB and I tell you what
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: I told you. It doesn't really matter, and it doesn't.
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: We'll chat to you a little bit more about it
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: just coming up in about ten minutes time. But next
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: we're going to business for Vicky Price News and Views.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: You trust to start your day.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: It's early edition with Ryan Bridge and Spark for business
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: technology that keeps business moving News talksb five eighteen.
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: Ryan almost felt sorry for Chippy. This is from Graham
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: standing there on the news with his followers behind and
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: ruling out the Green policy. Yes, you feel sorry from NATO. Ryan,
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: They're being greedy. This is the Greens. They're the greedy
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: ones for wanting to take from us more than they need,
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: aren't they? The definition? Isn't that the definition of greed?
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: And should it not be applied to them? A good point?
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Eighteen and a half to five, now, Bryan Bridge, Europe
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: is intent on reducing China content and imports and production.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: Let's go to business correspondent Vicki Price for your Monday morning. Vicky,
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: good morning, good evening.
• 8:25
  Speaker 12: To you, Good morning to you.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: So tell me what's what is the plan and what
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: is the goal here?
• 8:34
  Speaker 12: Well, the plan is being sort of slowly developing and
• 8:39
  Speaker 12: it's so far they haven't quite reached agreement across all
• 8:41
  Speaker 12: the countries. I mean, generally the issue has been that
• 8:44
  Speaker 12: Chinese imports have taken a bigger share of all the
• 8:48
  Speaker 12: inputs of the EU. And also, of course what they're
• 8:51
  Speaker 12: doing is they've increased the deficit the trade deficit that
• 8:54
  Speaker 12: exists between the YOU and China quite significantly over the
• 8:58
  Speaker 12: last year, and quite lot of imports are coming into
• 9:01
  Speaker 12: the U which are perceived to be dumped into the
• 9:07
  Speaker 12: U because there have been restrictions in other countries from
• 9:11
  Speaker 12: where of course the Chinese have tried to diversify and
• 9:14
  Speaker 12: sell more to the U. That is particularly evident in
• 9:19
  Speaker 12: the sales of electric vehicles. So what the Europeans are
• 9:24
  Speaker 12: trying to do now is to think that there must
• 9:26
  Speaker 12: be there and there are some sensitive sectors where manufacturing
• 9:29
  Speaker 12: is particularly affected by very large imports from China, where
• 9:34
  Speaker 12: there it needs to be a bit more protection. So
• 9:37
  Speaker 12: what they are suggesting is that for a number of
• 9:39
  Speaker 12: sectors which would actually include the current industry, one is
• 9:42
  Speaker 12: guessing this should be a wider range of possible imports,
• 9:48
  Speaker 12: even for inputs into the production process, that should be
• 9:51
  Speaker 12: looked at each time. So the suggestion is that legislation
• 9:54
  Speaker 12: will say they have to be at least three so
• 9:56
  Speaker 12: one has to look across and see where the other
• 9:58
  Speaker 12: things are available elsewhere that can come into the production
• 10:00
  Speaker 12: process before one settles for imports from China. But having
• 10:05
  Speaker 12: said all that, they have been imposing extra tariffs. So
• 10:07
  Speaker 12: electric vehicles have now got extra tariffs on them from China.
• 10:12
  Speaker 12: They were introduced in twenty twenty four, and of course
• 10:14
  Speaker 12: by the Chinese have done is they've now exported just hybrids,
• 10:18
  Speaker 12: a lot more hybrids coming into the use. So you
• 10:20
  Speaker 12: can't actually win. So the question is, and I think
• 10:22
  Speaker 12: it was a good thing the way you've phrased it.
• 10:25
  Speaker 12: There may be a plan, but whether you can actually
• 10:27
  Speaker 12: a agreed across all the countries and there's lots of
• 10:29
  Speaker 12: differences that exist, or even implement it properly, that's a big,
• 10:33
  Speaker 12: big question.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: Indeed, in the UK inflation stable, interest rates and changed,
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: what about the Makefield by election and the fact that
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: Stama is probably about to walk and what's happening with
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: the bond markets here, well, the.
• 10:44
  Speaker 12: Bond markets are worried about this. There's a lot of
• 10:47
  Speaker 12: uncertainty around what's going to happen to the Chancellor, to
• 10:50
  Speaker 12: Reeves and also whoever takes over if they do, should
• 10:54
  Speaker 12: there be a change of people at the top, including
• 10:57
  Speaker 12: a new Prime minister, are they going to follow the
• 10:59
  Speaker 12: fiscal rules that have been set by ratio Reefs so far,
• 11:02
  Speaker 12: which the markets have generally liked now. Having looked, however,
• 11:06
  Speaker 12: at what yields have been doing over the last year
• 11:09
  Speaker 12: really actually since the new Labor government came to power.
• 11:14
  Speaker 12: What you've got is yields in the UK being considerably
• 11:17
  Speaker 12: higher than is the case in other countries, higher now
• 11:20
  Speaker 12: right now today than they are in the US, and
• 11:25
  Speaker 12: at least two percentage points high or one and a
• 11:27
  Speaker 12: half let's say, I'm exaggerating a bit depending on which
• 11:30
  Speaker 12: country you're looking at. If you look at Europe and
• 11:33
  Speaker 12: the yields there and those in the UK, so cost
• 11:36
  Speaker 12: of businesses are high, mortgage rates are high, so that's
• 11:40
  Speaker 12: not actually conducive to higher growth. So in many ways
• 11:43
  Speaker 12: one does need to pacify the capital markets. One needs
• 11:47
  Speaker 12: to explain that perhaps you know, whatever government comes in
• 11:51
  Speaker 12: it is going to be quite fiscally prudent. The markets
• 11:55
  Speaker 12: may not satisfy themselves for that for a while, so
• 11:58
  Speaker 12: we may well be seeing this high yields stay there
• 12:01
  Speaker 12: for a bit until things are clear.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: Vicky, very quickly, what's happened with the Conservatives in Scotland
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: and ebeen winning a first Wistminster buy election winning more
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: than fifty years.
• 12:13
  Speaker 12: Well, yes, there were three by elections going on two
• 12:15
  Speaker 12: in Scotland, one of course in makers Field that make
• 12:17
  Speaker 12: us feel went of course for labor. The other one
• 12:19
  Speaker 12: of the Scottish one's Swiss and p But what's happened
• 12:21
  Speaker 12: to the Aberdeen one is that it went to the
• 12:24
  Speaker 12: Conservatives because the Conservatives have been arguing, in fact doing
• 12:28
  Speaker 12: all the by election canvassing and campaigning on reopening or
• 12:33
  Speaker 12: at least increasing the production of Nazi oil, which so
• 12:35
  Speaker 12: many jobs depend. So it's not very surprising that that
• 12:38
  Speaker 12: has happened, but it is a shock in some ways
• 12:41
  Speaker 12: because of course, as you rightly say, they haven't really
• 12:43
  Speaker 12: held that seat. You know, it's the first victory that
• 12:46
  Speaker 12: they have had in sort of decades.
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: There interesting stuff, Vicky Price, our business correspondent time is
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: twenty three minutes south to five. Fascinating, isn't it just
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: how much people? I mean, yes, people care about climate change,
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: but they care about jobs more than that, and no
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: more so than Aberdeen, it would seem. Over the weekend
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: I was in France just recently talking to a guy
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: who basically is an engineer for building new nuclear power plants.
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: In France they have the highest number in Europe. They
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: are almost energy and dependent off the back of a
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: nuclear power, and Macron is building more of the things
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: so that they can be so you know, we don't
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: have to rely on the Middle East as much, as
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: we don't rely on on the Russians as much, all
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: of that good stuff. But it's just fascinating the different
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: types of well, the different types of energy you can get,
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: and who turns their noses up at different types. And
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: certainly in France they're not worried about nuclear in fact,
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: they're building more of the things. Twenty four after five.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: The early edition Full The Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: by News TALKSB.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: News TALKSB twenty six minutes after five. Great to have
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: your company this Monday morning. There is no real point
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: in talking about this latest looney bin tax plan that
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: will tax rab really from the Green Party, because it's
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: not going to happen. It's going to end up being
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: nothing more than a word doc on their website. Not
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: going to happen. However, an inheritance tax is about the
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: cruelest thing a state can impose on a grieving family
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: thirty three percent. When mum or dad dies, you've then
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: got to take out a loan from the bank. Congratulations Bank,
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: can pay the government, or sell the shares, sell the property, whatever,
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: then pay the state. Congratulations. State. The idea is that
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: somehow this act of forced goodwill, taxing assets that your
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: family has worked hard to acquire, using money that's already
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: probably being taxed, earning income that's already taxed well somewhere,
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: somehow materially change the lives of others. This idea is bs.
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: I've just been in France where they have exactly this system.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: They have high personal income tax rates, and they are
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: swinging to the far right. And this plan includes a
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: wealth tax on everything from shares to companies, which only
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: a handful of other countries do, by the way, and
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: bother doing because you may have an asset, but it
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: doesn't mean you've got cash to pay tax on it.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: Just a reminder, this is not how a country gets rich.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: This is not how you create more jobs and industry.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: It is not how you grow an economy. And if
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: you're not doing that, you're standing still or going backwards.
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: We've been doing that in this country for too long.
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: Ideas like this may be appealing on paper, in reality
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: almost never delivered the things that the politicians espousing them
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: promise on the hustings. You don't hear this set often,
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: but thank god for labor completely ruling this thing out.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: Brian Bradley, twenty seven.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: After five news talks hed BP, speaking of the National
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: Party had their annual little knees up over the weekend.
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: It is election year, of course, and you hear this
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: from Simey and Brown talking about the coalition partners.
• 15:57
  Speaker 13: One wants the heater on, the other throws the window open,
• 16:01
  Speaker 13: one wants the rugby on.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: Now the once football.
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: You know who those two kids are.
• 16:08
  Speaker 14: With mom and dad in the middle, finding the time
• 16:10
  Speaker 14: and all the noise to get on and get the
• 16:13
  Speaker 14: job done.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: I just think it was a funny odd It was
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: an odd analogy to use when you yourself look like
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: a kid, you know what I mean. Anyway, Hey, we've
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: got a big game today all Whites Egypt, happening at
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: one o'clock our time. Very important because a draw is
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: not good enough. We need to win this thing, basically,
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: I'm told in order to keep going and to stay
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: and we will have another match after it, but to
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: stay in the competition we will need to do very well. Indeed,
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: and we did well of course with a draw last week.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: Against Iran last weekend, So congratulating that's happening at one
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: o'clock this afternoon for those who are interested. It is funny,
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: isn't it? Just the thought even the image of Simeon
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: Brown standing there calling calling Winston Peters a kid. I mean,
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: look at you. He's a lovely guy, but look at
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: him anyway. That is all coming up. Also, we will
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: talk about key we Saver. The big announcement out of
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: that conference over the weekend was key we Saber making
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: it compulsory. And immediately you think, well, just because you're
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: a key we Save a member, does that necessarily mean
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: that you have to contribute to key we Saver Or
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: can you just say yes, I'm a member and pay nothing?
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: In which case, what does your employer do? Those questions
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: and more answered with Kirk Hope. You're on news Talk, said.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: B Ryan Bridge on early edition with Spunk for business

• 17:57
  Speaker 3: to be the day for him to say goodbye and
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: before Burnham to take over. There's a lot of pressure
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: for him and on for him to do that. Gavin
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: Gray is in the UK. For us the key we
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: savior thing will be interesting also, Graham Hart, you know
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: very rich man and as a tax resident of New Zealand.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: So part of the Greens plan is all about taxing
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: the super super rich, the really rich ones. How do
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: you actually figure out how much their assets are worth
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: at any given point in time, Given they are global,
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: given some of them are privately owned, not listed, how
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: do you actually work out at one point in the
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: year how much those global assets are worth and therefore
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: how much tax that they should pay? Is that a
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: question they can even answer? Time is lots of text
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: on this this morning twenty three away.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: From six Bryan Bridge.
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: Our reporters Callum Procter and Tonedan Callum, good morning morning, Ryan.
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: What's the new flight path taking off over Queenstown.
• 18:53
  Speaker 15: It's in New Zealand's laatest service to Queenstown to Brisbane.
• 18:57
  Speaker 15: It takes flight from today and it's the seasonal service,
• 19:01
  Speaker 15: so it's here for the next four months and it'll
• 19:04
  Speaker 15: operate three times a week through until October twenty third.
• 19:08
  Speaker 15: It'll offer more than seventeen thousand seats between the two destinations.
• 19:12
  Speaker 15: And this on the back of Jetstar similar service out
• 19:14
  Speaker 15: of Queenstown which started last week to Brisbane.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: So more Ossie's than.
• 19:18
  Speaker 15: Ever expected here this winter in New Zealand, says Queenstown
• 19:21
  Speaker 15: is a year round favorite for Ossie's and this will
• 19:23
  Speaker 15: help bring more visitors to Queenstown and the wider South Island.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: Nice one, how's the d edings where they coum?
• 19:29
  Speaker 15: It's fine today? Someone in cloud Westerley's die out thirteen
• 19:32
  Speaker 15: the high clear.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: Good morning, good morning, good to hear you, and tell
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: us about the new pub coming to the stadium.
• 19:40
  Speaker 16: Yes, well, good timing after the Warriors game here at
• 19:43
  Speaker 16: one in zed Stadium yesterday, Ryan Christchurch's new stadium precinct
• 19:47
  Speaker 16: is sent to have Canterburys and potentially New Zealand's largest pub.
• 19:51
  Speaker 16: The Inkster Company has secured two Chiwham Street warehouses side
• 19:55
  Speaker 16: by side just across the road from the stadium. The
• 19:58
  Speaker 16: Lancaster is what they call it at the moment. It'll
• 20:01
  Speaker 16: have a one thousand seat capacity. It will cater to
• 20:04
  Speaker 16: sports fans and concert goers and will open early next year.
• 20:08
  Speaker 16: The owner, Ni Kinkster, is very well known around Christchurch
• 20:10
  Speaker 16: for owning some of the sort of big pubs here.
• 20:13
  Speaker 16: He says, this is a tribute to the old Lancaster
• 20:15
  Speaker 16: Park and we'll have some old nineteen eighties rugby club
• 20:18
  Speaker 16: room type feel about it. There'll be old timber paneling
• 20:21
  Speaker 16: at three sixty bar in the middle of the room,
• 20:24
  Speaker 16: as well as some big stages for live music. He
• 20:27
  Speaker 16: says the main goal is to make it two minutes
• 20:29
  Speaker 16: from pint to seat, with the stadium not even fifty meters.
• 20:33
  Speaker 13: From the pub.
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: All right, how's your weather?
• 20:35
  Speaker 16: Morning fog and there's also some frost out there this morning.
• 20:38
  Speaker 16: Should clear to find westerly's turning northeasterly and we'll make
• 20:41
  Speaker 16: twelve degrees.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: Take care, Claire. Let's go to Tabia's Macintosh and Rollings
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: and to bears. Good morning, cold a Ryan be absolutely
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: loving that win from the hurricanes over the weekend.
• 20:50
  Speaker 14: But phizzink still phizzinc But we've got.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: Down to one single and dryland of Ferry till mid September.
• 20:57
  Speaker 14: Yeah, as we heard in the news, fairies on the
• 20:59
  Speaker 14: Agena again their kyata He is out of service for
• 21:02
  Speaker 14: three weeks for essential maintenance here in Wellington before the
• 21:05
  Speaker 14: Kaitucky then heads to Singapore for dock work. KWI Rail
• 21:09
  Speaker 14: says it's essential for maintaining safe and reliable services through
• 21:13
  Speaker 14: to twenty twenty nine, when two rail enabled ships are
• 21:16
  Speaker 14: due to into service. It says it's worked closely with
• 21:19
  Speaker 14: freight and commercial customers in advance to support planning and
• 21:22
  Speaker 14: demand management, But the Maritime Union's Carl Finlay says it
• 21:26
  Speaker 14: stems from the government's decision to scrap Labour's Irex project.
• 21:30
  Speaker 14: He says when they can to the projects, they should
• 21:32
  Speaker 14: have planned ahead for what's to come, but instead New
• 21:35
  Speaker 14: Zealanders are now left paying the price.
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: At least we're good at swimming to bears. How's your weather?
• 21:41
  Speaker 14: Well, whims have actually died down since the rugby over
• 21:44
  Speaker 14: the weekend. A chance of a shower is still before
• 21:46
  Speaker 14: dawn thirteen the high today in Wellington.
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: Nice one and nevas and akan Good morning morning, lovely
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: to see you. Yes now, what's the latest on one
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: of the biggest money launderers in our history?
• 21:57
  Speaker 13: Yes now, this is Yay who has agreed to forfeit
• 22:01
  Speaker 13: three point three million dollars of assets in a deal
• 22:04
  Speaker 13: with police. So yeah, who was sentenced this is to
• 22:07
  Speaker 13: six years in prison back in twenty twenty three after
• 22:11
  Speaker 13: moving at least eighteen million dollars on behalf of you know,
• 22:14
  Speaker 13: some significant drug dealers in Auckland. But police alleged that
• 22:17
  Speaker 13: that actual figure is closer to twenty seven point five
• 22:20
  Speaker 13: million dollars. So last week who were reached a settlement
• 22:24
  Speaker 13: with police rather than continue the litigation in a second
• 22:27
  Speaker 13: high court trial. So what we know now is that
• 22:29
  Speaker 13: all who restrained assets they have now been forfeited. And
• 22:32
  Speaker 13: this includes the centalias family home.
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: Ah, there you go, there you go. I don't want
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: to lose that. But you're going to nine ten away
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: from the sex. How's our weather?
• 22:39
  Speaker 13: Isolated shells and four dawn? But then I'm quite fine.
• 22:42
  Speaker 13: Sixteen is the high here in Auckland.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: Brilliant nev And might I say lovely to see you again?
• 22:47
  Speaker 8: Yes?
• 22:47
  Speaker 13: And you had a good holiday.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: I had a great holiday. You know, you shouldn't complain
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: about things. But there was a heat wave unbearable like
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: thirty six or thirty seven? Agree?
• 22:57
  Speaker 13: What would you give it to your holiday?
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: Like nine zo point seven? Wow, it was the best,
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: probably the best hol that I've ever had in my life.
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: It was amazing, Yes, because of the people I went with,
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: you know, yeah, great makes a difference. Great friends had it,
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: just had a wonderful time. Very lucky. I'll probably get
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: taxed for that. There you go, nineteen minutes away from six.
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: Since two thousand and two, can you believe that Kiwi
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: Bank has been built on a simple but powerful idea
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: to be a New Zealand owned bank that works for
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: Kiwi and challenges the system to make banking fair for everyone.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: More than two decades later, that commitment remains as strong
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: as ever. Guided by its purpose of Kiwi making Kiwi
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: better off, Kiwi Bank continues to back New Zealanders. They
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: do it every day with a different approach to banking,
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: one that puts people, communities, and the country's future first
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: before anything else. When you bank Kiwi, you're choosing a
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: bank that was born here and built to do things differently.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: A bank that exists to create more competition, deliver better
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: outcomes for customers and help make banking fairer for everyone.
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: That's us because banking should do more than just manage money.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: It should beck the people and the businesses that make
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: New Zealand stronger. Kiwi Bank isn't just another bank. It
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: was born to buck the system. Bank Kiwi Kiwi.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Bank International correspondence with ins and Eye Insurance, Peace of
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: mind for New Zealand business.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: God the sext.
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: Let's go to the UK givin Gray with us, Kevin
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: lovely to have you on the show. How long now
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: until starm is out? Do we reckon?
• 24:29
  Speaker 17: Welcome back run? I think you've timed your return quite
• 24:32
  Speaker 17: well there, because all the news is that he's probably
• 24:35
  Speaker 17: going to make some announcement tomorrow Monday our time, and
• 24:38
  Speaker 17: it's probably not going to be an immediate standing down.
• 24:41
  Speaker 17: It'll be a sort of set of planning timetable if
• 24:44
  Speaker 17: you like, for that process to begin. The mood has
• 24:47
  Speaker 17: most certainly changed, I would say those I've spoken to
• 24:50
  Speaker 17: just in the last forty eight hours over the weekend
• 24:53
  Speaker 17: really from the insisting that he won't walk away and
• 24:56
  Speaker 17: will fight any leadership challenge to the he'll do the
• 24:59
  Speaker 17: right thing and what's in the best interests of the country.
• 25:02
  Speaker 17: So I think that's why we're now likely to see
• 25:05
  Speaker 17: him resign. Then, of course the big question is who
• 25:07
  Speaker 17: will stand against him. It looks like the overwhelming favorite
• 25:11
  Speaker 17: on the bookies is the Mayor of Manchester, the former
• 25:16
  Speaker 17: Mayor of Manchester, because they'll have to be replaced, Andy Burnham.
• 25:19
  Speaker 17: And then the question is, well, will anyone else stand
• 25:22
  Speaker 17: against him? Where's street In? The former Health Secretary said
• 25:24
  Speaker 17: he would, But lots of people are wanting a bloodless,
• 25:28
  Speaker 17: seamless transition and if there's a big contest, that might
• 25:31
  Speaker 17: not be the case. So each candidate who wants to
• 25:35
  Speaker 17: go into this must find eighty one MPs, that's twenty
• 25:39
  Speaker 17: percent of the MPs to back them in order to
• 25:41
  Speaker 17: get on the ballot. And that is quite a high threshold.
• 25:45
  Speaker 17: And it may be quite simply that that sorts it
• 25:47
  Speaker 17: down to just Streeting and Burnham. But of course the
• 25:50
  Speaker 17: question is will there actually be one? Will Streeting do
• 25:53
  Speaker 17: a pack to get a place in the cabinet, et cetera,
• 25:55
  Speaker 17: et cetera. The big question, then, of course, will be
• 25:57
  Speaker 17: timing when would the next Prime Minister take over. Plenty
• 26:01
  Speaker 17: believed the best time would be around September when the
• 26:03
  Speaker 17: Labor Party holds its annual conference.
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: All right, so we have a lame duck till the end. Now,
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: this East Midlands railway train that there were the collision
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: between two trains that were quite shocking and quite serious.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: Someone died. But do we know why what happened or
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: how it happened.
• 26:17
  Speaker 17: Yet no, So all the investigations still continue. It does
• 26:22
  Speaker 17: appear that the trains were both heading in the same
• 26:26
  Speaker 17: direction towards London, London St. Pancras, the international station of
• 26:32
  Speaker 17: course that it's sending out for the Eurotunnel and Eurostar trains,
• 26:37
  Speaker 17: and they were both heading there, but one, it would appear,
• 26:39
  Speaker 17: was stationary near Bedford, a town to the north of London,
• 26:43
  Speaker 17: and the other one seems to have rammed into the
• 26:46
  Speaker 17: back of it, killing the driver and twenty eight people
• 26:50
  Speaker 17: remaining in hospital, nine are in a critical condition. And
• 26:53
  Speaker 17: now we're being told that the services there will be
• 26:56
  Speaker 17: disrupted for our week, which is obviously a fairly substantial
• 27:00
  Speaker 17: she'll delay for are those that use that route to
• 27:02
  Speaker 17: get to work. And so consequently the investigation is on
• 27:07
  Speaker 17: and continuing. Exactly why was the first train stopped, Why
• 27:11
  Speaker 17: wasn't the line effectively blocked to any other trains coming
• 27:15
  Speaker 17: in that direction? All this should be answered by the
• 27:18
  Speaker 17: various railway authorities.
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: All right, thanks so much for that Devin gray Are
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: UK europe correspondent, it is twelve minutes away from six
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: talk be. So Nashal wants to make care we save
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: a compulsory for every worker from twenty twenty eight. If
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: re elected, babies your bebe, you are automatically enrolled at
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: birth and you get a fifteen hundred dollars government bearber boost.
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: According to Nikola Willison Christopher Luckxen, No, we just thought
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: that was a good amount of money.
• 27:43
  Speaker 18: That actually, when you think about someone, I think a
• 27:44
  Speaker 18: baby born today, by the time they get to eighteen,
• 27:46
  Speaker 18: it's based off average returns, you're probably close to about
• 27:50
  Speaker 18: five thousand dollars by the time they hit eighteen.
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: We don't want anyone left behind.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: Kirk Hope, Financial Services Council Chief Executive, with me this morning. Kirk,
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: good morning, good morning. So if you are enrolled in
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: can we save it? Does that mean you have to contribute?
• 28:04
  Speaker 8: No?
• 28:05
  Speaker 18: And that's I think that's part of the challenge that
• 28:08
  Speaker 18: the National's policy is trying to address. That you can
• 28:10
  Speaker 18: be enrolled and not contributing, and there's probably about a
• 28:12
  Speaker 18: third of people who aren't contributing in the scheme. And
• 28:15
  Speaker 18: if you're not contributing, then your employer doesn't have to contribute.
• 28:18
  Speaker 18: So so again making it compulsory will probably address some
• 28:22
  Speaker 18: of those some of those issues. To be fair, you know,
• 28:26
  Speaker 18: the countries that have pretty good saving schemes are all compulsory,
• 28:29
  Speaker 18: Australia and Singapore. So we would be moving in that
• 28:32
  Speaker 18: line if National's policy were to come to pass.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: So those third of people who currently aren't enrolled but
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: would be enrolled, they would also have to contribute. It's
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: as long as they're working, they would be forced to contribute.
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: You can't just sit there enrolled but not pay anything.
• 28:49
  Speaker 18: That's correct. And as I said, you know so you
• 28:51
  Speaker 18: can be enrolled now but not contributing, so that that
• 28:54
  Speaker 18: is not ideal pertecutive. If you're trying to build retirement
• 28:58
  Speaker 18: savings for yourself.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: What about the over sixty five? What do you make advance?
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: How significant?
• 29:05
  Speaker 18: Well it's going to become more significant as more of
• 29:07
  Speaker 18: old people are working beyond sixty five. So we've pushed
• 29:12
  Speaker 18: for this for some time. I think in the budget
• 29:14
  Speaker 18: and Budget twenty five they made an allowance for employees
• 29:18
  Speaker 18: to provides key say contributions for people between under eighteen,
• 29:23
  Speaker 18: So people who are working full time under eighteen. This
• 29:26
  Speaker 18: is an extension of that, so people over sixty five
• 29:28
  Speaker 18: will continue to receive employer contributions if they're still in
• 29:32
  Speaker 18: the workplace, which I think, which I think again is
• 29:34
  Speaker 18: a good thing because if people are living longer, they're
• 29:36
  Speaker 18: working longer, and they're wanting to continue to.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Save for when they stop working.
• 29:42
  Speaker 18: It's an important step.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: It is, but it does mean that workers and businesses
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: are going to be out of pocket in the short term,
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: aren't we And at the same time we're still paying taxes,
