- 0:12Speaker 3: Morning A six up to five on your Friday. The
- 0:14Speaker 3: mobras reckon we need to change our suppression laws. We'll
- 0:16Speaker 3: look at that before six. We're in the UK with
- 0:18Speaker 3: Vincent marg Foster on the Silver Ferns. They're off to
- 0:21Speaker 3: Ozzie Sands, Dame Knowles and Cameron Baggery. Are we overcooking
- 0:25Speaker 3: it on rate cuts?
- 0:27Speaker 2: The agenda Friday.
- 0:30Speaker 3: The seventeenth of October. Venezuela and I are happy chappy
- 0:33Speaker 3: because Trump's doing covert CII operations in their country.
- 0:37Speaker 4: They have emptied their prisons into the United States of America.
- 0:41Speaker 2: They came in through the.
- 0:43Speaker 3: Well, they came in through the border.
- 0:45Speaker 4: They came in because we had an open border policy.
- 0:48Speaker 5: And the other thing a drugs.
- 0:49Speaker 6: We have a lot of drugs coming in from.
- 0:50Speaker 7: That as well.
- 0:51Speaker 3: CII. The Cia Maduro is calling it a coup detarc.
- 0:55Speaker 3: Republicans and Democrats aren't budging on the shutdown situation. Speaker
- 0:59Speaker 3: Mike Johnson's a crack at them.
- 1:01Speaker 8: There is an incredible contrast right now between the two
- 1:03Speaker 8: parties that could not be more clear. This is not
- 1:07Speaker 8: your grandfather's Democratic Party. It truly has become the far
- 1:11Speaker 8: left Marxist left that are running that whole operation, and
- 1:15Speaker 8: it has real effects on real people, good like everybody.
- 1:18Speaker 3: Now, the shutdown has lasted longer than the six Fire
- 1:20Speaker 3: and Gaza, although that is holding for now. Israel's returning
- 1:24Speaker 3: more bodies of Palestinians, NT Yahoo's still talking tough.
- 1:29Speaker 9: Whoever raises their hand on us already knows that they
- 1:31Speaker 9: will pay a very heavy price for their aggression.
- 1:34Speaker 10: We're determined to complete the victory that will affect our
- 1:36Speaker 10: lives for many years.
- 1:38Speaker 3: A bit of a warning this morning from Britain's spy
- 1:40Speaker 3: agency that the terror threat's real and it's growing.
- 1:44Speaker 11: Groups overseas are continuing their attempts to direct terrorism into
- 1:48Speaker 11: the UK and Europe. Al Qaida and Islamic stat are
- 1:51Speaker 11: once again becoming more ambitious, taking advantage of instability overseas
- 1:56Speaker 11: to gain firmer foothols.
- 1:59Speaker 1: Ryan Breed on earlier edition with r V Super Center
- 2:03Speaker 1: explore r v's accessories and servicing all in one news talks.
- 2:07Speaker 3: I'd be two is the number to text. I'd love
- 2:09Speaker 3: to hear from you this morning. Get your popcorn everyone,
- 2:12Speaker 3: we're going to Kuyper. The local body elections are officially now. Interesting.
- 2:16Speaker 3: You've got Trump of the North up there. He's saying,
- 2:19Speaker 3: in very trumpy and style that the election's bit rigged
- 2:24Speaker 3: eady to.
- 2:24Speaker 12: Have a why down, you're not able to come up
- 2:31Speaker 12: and stand up here? Sit down, Take your seat, okay,
- 2:35Speaker 12: take your seat please. This is not a place where
- 2:38Speaker 12: you can come and do this. Take your seat.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Guys.
- 2:41Speaker 5: We're going to your journe meeting till tomorrow morning.
- 2:43Speaker 13: Thank you.
- 2:44Speaker 3: It's all over. So it's back on this morning at
- 2:46Speaker 3: nine o'clock apparently is when they're back. So calls a
- 2:49Speaker 3: meeting and emergency meeting. Last night apparently there's a claim
- 2:54Speaker 3: there's a complaint that an EWE took over a voting
- 2:56Speaker 3: booth stop people from voting. Don't know whether that's true
- 2:59Speaker 3: or not. That's just what media is reporting. There was
- 3:01Speaker 3: a sign also, there's a photo of a sign that
- 3:04Speaker 3: said Maldy wars and this was on election day, which
- 3:07Speaker 3: you know you shouldn't try and influence people's vote. There
- 3:09Speaker 3: was a sign that supposedly said Maldy Wards of course,
- 3:13Speaker 3: no question. So someone complained, meeting gets called, crowd goes wild,
- 3:20Speaker 3: meeting gets adjourned back on this morning. So we don't
- 3:23Speaker 3: really know much, neither of the councilors by the sound
- 3:25Speaker 3: of it. But it's interesting because the race is so tight.
- 3:27Speaker 3: So you've got the incumbent guy, this is Jonathan Larsen,
- 3:30Speaker 3: the first and last time we'll mention the Kuai premiere
- 3:33Speaker 3: on the show. But he so he is the guy
- 3:36Speaker 3: that Trump has endorsed, so he's your Trump candidate. And
- 3:41Speaker 3: then you've got a three way race. You've got your
- 3:43Speaker 3: eweie man Snow, and then you've got another councilor his
- 3:46Speaker 3: name's Jason Smith, thirty one votes separating them either way.
- 3:50Speaker 3: Whatever happens with this meeting today, whatever happens with the
- 3:52Speaker 3: specials which are getting announced later today, this thing's going
- 3:55Speaker 3: to drag on because you've got groups now threatening a
- 3:58Speaker 3: judicial review and someone else is saying I'm going to
- 4:02Speaker 3: the Onboardsman Bryan Bridge five ten will keep you up
- 4:06Speaker 3: to date on newstalok ZB no doubt on what's going
- 4:08Speaker 3: on there now. Next week Monday, we get inflation for
- 4:12Speaker 3: the September quarter, so we've got the rbn Z cut
- 4:14Speaker 3: hopefully another twenty five points next month. Food prices yesterday
- 4:20Speaker 3: were off down point four that's for the month. Rent
- 4:23Speaker 3: lowest annual increase in fourteen years. So the theory is
- 4:27Speaker 3: that this makes up a quarter of the CPI. So
- 4:30Speaker 3: if a quarter of the CPI is going backwards or
- 4:32Speaker 3: not accelerating at the rate they were expecting, maybe we
- 4:36Speaker 3: won't hit three percent inflation. Maybe that will give the
- 4:39Speaker 3: Reserve Bank more cores to cut next month. Five to eleven.
- 4:42Speaker 3: We'll talk about this and we actually claim that we
- 4:45Speaker 3: might be overcooking it on interest rate cuts with Cambag.
- 4:49Speaker 1: Next, the first word on the News of the Day
- 4:52Speaker 1: early edition with Bryan Bridge and r V Supercenter explore
- 4:57Speaker 1: r v's accessories and servicing more than one The news
- 5:00Speaker 1: Talk said be five.
- 5:01Speaker 3: Point thirteen on News Talk said be Ritz says, Ryan,
- 5:04Speaker 3: send the netball girls up north to sort the local
- 5:06Speaker 3: elections out. That's not a bad idea, that's not a
- 5:08Speaker 3: bad shout at all. Talk to Mark Foster about the
- 5:11Speaker 3: going over to Australia. It's going to be much tougher
- 5:14Speaker 3: in terms of actual netball than it was against the
- 5:16Speaker 3: South Africans and if they lose, like if they lose
- 5:20Speaker 3: the Constellation Cup to Australia, does that then mean that
- 5:23Speaker 3: Dame Niles is a shoeing to come back because if
- 5:26Speaker 3: they lose without her then presumably they needed her, So
- 5:30Speaker 3: you would have no choice, would you. We'll talk to
- 5:32Speaker 3: marg Foster about that. Shortly five point thirteen, Graham Bridge
- 5:35Speaker 3: Inpimetrix brad Olsen's outfit, reckons we might be overcooking it
- 5:38Speaker 3: with interes straight cuts. They say the cuts have gone
- 5:41Speaker 3: so far that they've done their job. The effects won't
- 5:43Speaker 3: be felt until mid to late next year. Too much
- 5:47Speaker 3: stimulus and we get all too excited again and then
- 5:50Speaker 3: facing tickles up and then rate hikes from late next year.
- 5:54Speaker 3: Independent economist Cameron Bagriy with me this morning to chat
- 5:56Speaker 3: about it.
- 5:57Speaker 4: Morning Cameron, well, good morning, nice to see you back.
- 6:00Speaker 3: Yeah, good to good to be back. What's the situation here?
- 6:04Speaker 3: Do you agree with this?
- 6:07Speaker 4: You can argue both sides if you look at the
- 6:10Speaker 4: growth side of the equation and the growth side of
- 6:12Speaker 4: the equation and new zealing at the moment is still
- 6:14Speaker 4: pretty ana. So the reserve bands well justified by looking
- 6:19Speaker 4: the kind of up to the defaibilia and giving a
- 6:21Speaker 4: little bit of a of a shock, so to speak,
- 6:23Speaker 4: of the form of a lifelesial cash frow. The other
- 6:26Speaker 4: side is that giving the economy a little bit more
- 6:29Speaker 4: juici is not without risk, and head by inflation is
- 6:32Speaker 4: moving up. Core inflation looks a lot more contained. But
- 6:37Speaker 4: this is the reserve band that they just need to
- 6:39Speaker 4: be a little bit weary here, because if this economy
- 6:41Speaker 4: is kicking the gear, and I think it is going
- 6:43Speaker 4: to kick in the gear into twenty twenty six, you
- 6:47Speaker 4: could hit some capacity constraints pretty quickly. You hit capacity
- 6:50Speaker 4: constraints pretty quickly in FLAC starts to wear it's ugly
- 6:54Speaker 4: head again. And for a lot of people out there, Brian, Yeah,
- 6:57Speaker 4: most people do not think head by inflation is too
- 7:00Speaker 4: because you're seeing your electricity bill move up at a
- 7:03Speaker 4: double digit clip, your rates bills moving up at a
- 7:05Speaker 4: double digit clip, medical bills, they cost of food out
- 7:09Speaker 4: there across the country as well.
- 7:11Speaker 3: What's worse for the reserve bank going hard now and
- 7:14Speaker 3: risk reversing later, or you know, letting the pain drag
- 7:18Speaker 3: on and staying on one course.
- 7:21Speaker 4: It's a Clayton's choice, you know, we're welcome to being
- 7:23Speaker 4: a central bank, and they need a lot of it's
- 7:27Speaker 4: about risk, risk management, and the Reserve Band obviously decided
- 7:31Speaker 4: after getting that week GDP number for Q two, but
- 7:34Speaker 4: they needed up the NTY a little bit. But if
- 7:36Speaker 4: you go to their document, you know their statement, their minutes,
- 7:39Speaker 4: they were still wary about some of those inflation risks because,
- 7:42Speaker 4: as I said, your headline inflation is moving up. They're
- 7:44Speaker 4: not focused on head by inflation. They're focused on core
- 7:47Speaker 4: inflation that looks a lot more sedate. But there's a
- 7:50Speaker 4: whole lot of things out there at the moment that
- 7:52Speaker 4: the Reserve Band can't control. You know, one of the
- 7:54Speaker 4: big problems for a central bank is that that they
- 7:57Speaker 4: sort of know where the economy is through a demand lens,
- 8:00Speaker 4: but they don't know where the economy is through a
- 8:02Speaker 4: supply lens. Yeah, this is how fast the economy can
- 8:05Speaker 4: grow the combination of immigration, capital, the combination in line
- 8:10Speaker 4: with productivity growth. And what we know is that that
- 8:12Speaker 4: line is a very weak number. And if that line
- 8:15Speaker 4: is even weaker than what the Reserve Band is estimating,
- 8:18Speaker 4: we get hit capacity constraints early in twenty twenty six,
- 8:22Speaker 4: on the assumption that this ecloney is going to kick
- 8:24Speaker 4: into gear as a whole lot more people roll of
- 8:27Speaker 4: those fixed mortgages. And we know there's a lot of
- 8:29Speaker 4: stiminess in the pipeline when it.
- 8:30Speaker 3: Kicks into gear because it's been so long and dragged out.
- 8:33Speaker 3: When it kicks into gear, does it kick in it
- 8:36Speaker 3: third gear? Are we going to suddenly bolt out the gates.
- 8:41Speaker 4: I'm not convincing to get a bolt out of the gate.
- 8:44Speaker 4: And one of the reasons I'm not convincing in a
- 8:46Speaker 4: bolt out of the gate is the economy is not
- 8:49Speaker 4: just driven by what's called the cyclical leaders, and the
- 8:51Speaker 4: cyclical leaders of things such as interest rates coming down,
- 8:55Speaker 4: how much money to get it's pumping in, and it's
- 8:57Speaker 4: how much money the farmers have got that's something US dollar.
- 9:00Speaker 4: It's the likes of that three point two bidion that
- 9:03Speaker 4: could hurt farmers, wallets in the form of that consumer business.
- 9:07Speaker 4: So we know there's there's some pretty big checks that
- 9:10Speaker 4: they're going to come in. But to get the economy
- 9:12Speaker 4: ready kicking into gear, you need to see the housing
- 9:16Speaker 4: in a pretty pretty good space. Because the housing market's
- 9:20Speaker 4: got about three speeds for neutral and reverse. If you've
- 9:23Speaker 4: got a shortage of supply, you can't interstrates. Then you
- 9:26Speaker 4: can have typically one how of a construction boom. You
- 9:28Speaker 4: know what we got out there at the moment is
- 9:30Speaker 4: a population growth relative to supply I building consents. It
- 9:35Speaker 4: still looks like we're building too many houses as opposed
- 9:37Speaker 4: to not enough housing. Evaluations are not exactly what you're
- 9:41Speaker 4: called cheap. There's a whole lot of other economic fundamentals
- 9:44Speaker 4: across this economy. If you look at our infrastructure, you
- 9:48Speaker 4: look at shortage of energy, if you lock at what's
- 9:52Speaker 4: going on in regard to the quality of the roading system.
- 9:55Speaker 4: These things just hold the economy back through a structural lens.
- 9:59Speaker 4: In these are areas that the Reserve Bank are not
- 10:01Speaker 4: fixed by channing interest rates. Only time can through some
- 10:04Speaker 4: good economic policy.
- 10:06Speaker 3: Cameron Bagory, a lead economist at Baggery Economics, appreciate your time.
- 10:09Speaker 3: This morning is always interesting stuff. Eighteen after five. Marg
- 10:12Speaker 3: Foster on the Silver Ferns Next news talk, seed b.
- 10:16Speaker 2: Get ahead of the headlines on early edition with Ryan
- 10:20Speaker 2: Bridge and are the Supercenter explore r these accessories and
- 10:24Speaker 2: servicing all in one news talks.
- 10:26Speaker 5: That'd be good morning.
- 10:27Speaker 3: It's five twenty nine two ninety two is the number
- 10:29Speaker 3: to text me Bill Hodge on this business with suppression
- 10:32Speaker 3: laws before six. Right now, things not getting any easier
- 10:34Speaker 3: for the Silver Ferns. You've got the Dame Knowles thing
- 10:37Speaker 3: happening and now they're going to go face the Aussies
- 10:39Speaker 3: in Australia for the Constellation Cut, the first of four
- 10:41Speaker 3: tests in Melbourne tonight. Margaret Foster is former Silver Fern
- 10:45Speaker 3: former coach of the Flames and the Steel, joins me
- 10:47Speaker 3: this morning. Marg Good morning, Good morning. So it's going
- 10:50Speaker 3: to be tough for them over there.
- 10:53Speaker 14: Oh yeah, you know we came off last year, you know,
- 10:58Speaker 14: smoking them for three three in a row, so you know,
- 11:01Speaker 14: looking forward to it.
- 11:03Speaker 3: It is the Dame Noleane thing kind of hanging over
- 11:05Speaker 3: the camp or do you think I mean they did
- 11:07Speaker 3: it with the South Africa just brush it off?
- 11:11Speaker 14: Yeah, I reckon like just you know what it's like
- 11:13Speaker 14: when there's a bit of chaos song, you're like you're
- 11:16Speaker 14: off the court. But then you know when that whistle
- 11:19Speaker 14: goes like everyone just gets on with it. And realistically,
- 11:22Speaker 14: from a coaching perspective, you know, you it's everything that
- 11:26Speaker 14: you do beforehand of you know, like that gets you
- 11:30Speaker 14: into the right state of mind, and I think those
- 11:32Speaker 14: athletes there they will be in the right state of mind.
- 11:37Speaker 3: Grace has said that she's unsaw yesterday she's going to
- 11:40Speaker 3: have a handwritten thing saying NT on her wristband, all
- 11:43Speaker 3: this kind of stuff, which is which is a lovely
- 11:46Speaker 3: show of support for Dame no Lean, but it's it's
- 11:50Speaker 3: sort of an old situation. It must be an odd
- 11:52Speaker 3: situation to be in.
- 11:54Speaker 14: Yeah, it certainly is. And you know, it's nice that
- 11:58Speaker 14: she's you know, she's really shown that. You know, that's
- 12:02Speaker 14: call of darity towards her coach and you know, for
- 12:06Speaker 14: all the things that Knowles has helped her within her
- 12:10Speaker 14: game on and off the court, I think that's it's
- 12:13Speaker 14: quite nice, quite courageous of her to just step up
- 12:17Speaker 14: and stand out as she does, you know. But I
- 12:21Speaker 14: think that sometimes that can actually galvanize a team, and
- 12:26Speaker 14: I think that's massive like these moments, and I feel
- 12:30Speaker 14: that that's what will happen with the senior players. I'll
- 12:33Speaker 14: drive the standards.
- 12:35Speaker 3: If they don't. If things go wrong, you know, if
- 12:38Speaker 3: we don't come away with the wins, is it inevitable,
- 12:41Speaker 3: then they'll have to bring Dame noling back. I mean,
- 12:43Speaker 3: how long does this drag on for?
- 12:45Speaker 13: Oh?
- 12:45Speaker 14: I know, like this it's absolutely getting ridiculous. And look
- 12:51Speaker 14: does it sort of mean that, like, you know, does
- 12:55Speaker 14: it take for us to lose this Constellation Cup for
- 13:00Speaker 14: nippings down to kind of acknowledge and get her back?
- 13:04Speaker 14: I don't know, but you know something's going to happen.
- 13:08Speaker 14: Like you know, it's just getting to be everyone is
- 13:10Speaker 14: talking about it, like just people in public.
- 13:13Speaker 10: Everywhere I go.
- 13:14Speaker 14: They're all coming up to me and just you know,
- 13:17Speaker 14: like it probably it puts Nitball, not necessarily, you know,
- 13:21Speaker 14: it does get people talking. It's great for our sport
- 13:24Speaker 14: in that respect.
- 13:24Speaker 15: But yeah, you're talking about something but.
- 13:27Speaker 3: Positive mag Are you saying any publicity is good publicity?
- 13:32Speaker 13: Well, we'll thinking that, you know, because you're talking like
- 13:37Speaker 13: just random people that probably don't even want They haven't
- 13:42Speaker 13: we even watched Knipball, but are now nipple fans, so you.
- 13:46Speaker 14: Know they currently be good.
- 13:48Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 13:48Speaker 3: So in some ways, thank you Dame Knowles for taking
- 13:51Speaker 3: month for the team because it must be hard on her.
- 13:55Speaker 7: Well, it certainly is.
- 13:56Speaker 14: And like to see her, you're like, you know, it's
- 14:00Speaker 14: she's take her her occupation of job taken away from
- 14:05Speaker 14: her for no reason, Like, yeah, it's kind of quite
- 14:09Speaker 14: hard being on the sideline, and also you know, like
- 14:11Speaker 14: her vision and also her her preparation for going into
- 14:17Speaker 14: this Constellation Cup. I mean it's been twelve months you know,
- 14:22Speaker 14: in the making, because you know, probably from from the
- 14:26Speaker 14: last one when they were just absolutely outstanding, so clinical,
- 14:31Speaker 14: so connected the Constellation Cup to win it last year,
- 14:36Speaker 14: so you know, not to be able to have the
- 14:39Speaker 14: ability to see if you can go one more, like
- 14:43Speaker 14: you know, like just take it up to another level
- 14:45Speaker 14: when she probably had the winning you know, she's got
- 14:48Speaker 14: the winning formula, so whatever she was doing was pretty
- 14:52Speaker 14: flipp and inspirational to be honest.
- 14:55Speaker 3: Yeah, Marg, I really appreciate having you on the show
- 14:57Speaker 3: this morning. He's got to talk Marg Foster, former silver
- 14:59Speaker 3: fin itself. I've also former coach of the Steel and
- 15:02Speaker 3: the Flames. Twenty five minutes after five, Y're on news
- 15:05Speaker 3: Talk SEBB and next we'll look back at Jim Bolger
- 15:08Speaker 3: a bit of comparison to today's lot.
- 15:10Speaker 1: The early edition Full the Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered
- 15:14Speaker 1: by News TALKSB.
- 15:17Speaker 3: News Talk SEB five twenty seven. It's hard listening to
- 15:20Speaker 3: all the tributes for Jim Bolger, and to not feel
- 15:23Speaker 3: like a little bit like we're being ripped off or
- 15:25Speaker 3: short changed by our current crop of leaders. A few
- 15:28Speaker 3: short generations ago, this country was a completely different place,
- 15:32Speaker 3: completely different place, before the internet, before the phones, before
- 15:35Speaker 3: all the anxiety, before career politicians. Politicians now come straight
- 15:40Speaker 3: out of school into UNI, into the debating club, into
- 15:43Speaker 3: the student union, then straight into parliament. Jim Bolger was
- 15:46Speaker 3: in parliament a very long time, sure, but he had
- 15:48Speaker 3: a productive life before it, leaving school at fifteen and
- 15:52Speaker 3: into work, hard work, manual work on the farm in
- 15:55Speaker 3: Taranaki and then later in Tequiti. Now it's straight from
- 15:58Speaker 3: school into parliament. Have you which parliament TV?
- 16:00Speaker 5: Lately?
- 16:01Speaker 3: This is something I do and my grandma do very regularly.
- 16:04Speaker 3: We've always done it, and we always compare notes. We
- 16:07Speaker 3: are both so unimpressed. You've got MPs who literally don't
- 16:11Speaker 3: know how to ask a question. It's like watching a
- 16:13Speaker 3: video buffering. No idea about standing orders, no idea about
- 16:18Speaker 3: the rules that govern the place, and no real apparent
- 16:20Speaker 3: care to learn either. Just walk in, full of entitlement,
- 16:23Speaker 3: sit down and start yelling. One of the most important
- 16:26Speaker 3: tools in The modern MP's toolbox is the unwavering ability
- 16:29Speaker 3: to take offense at anything and everything in tolerance for
- 16:33Speaker 3: another's point of view. The antithesis, by the way of
- 16:36Speaker 3: Jim Bolger, is now commonplace. Where once there was decency,
- 16:40Speaker 3: there is mistrust, wisdom's being usurped by incompetence, and decorums
- 16:45Speaker 3: being biffed out the window and replaced with petulance. People
- 16:50Speaker 3: aren't recognized for their standing in the community and voted
- 16:53Speaker 3: into parliament, which is what used to happen. They're there
- 16:56Speaker 3: because politics is now an industry, and more importantly, nobody
- 17:00Speaker 3: else would hire them and pay what we do.
- 17:04Speaker 2: Ryan Bridge, wee.
- 17:05Speaker 3: Mugs twenty nine after five News Talk SPB nine two
- 17:08Speaker 3: ninety two is the number to text very quickly. This
- 17:12Speaker 3: is from Trump on Ukraine. He's on the phone with
- 17:15Speaker 3: Putin meeting with Zelenski today. They want a bunch of
- 17:17Speaker 3: Tomahawk missiles. We're going talked to Vincent McAvennie out of
- 17:20Speaker 3: the UK Europe After News Plus Suppression Laws with Bill Hodge,
- 17:25Speaker 3: News Talk SEBB.
- 17:29Speaker 15: You said my Heart from the feedo.
- 17:35Speaker 1: On your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early edition with
- 17:40Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and are the Supercenter explore these accessories and
- 17:45Speaker 1: servicing Paul than one News Talk sed B.
- 17:49Speaker 3: Twenty four away from six News Talk SEBB coming out
- 17:52Speaker 3: the Mowbrays and suppression laws. We're head to London as well.
- 17:54Speaker 3: The Brits have caught a Chinese spy operation and they've
- 17:57Speaker 3: got more warnings about more of those ahead too.
- 18:00Speaker 7: Right now.
- 18:00Speaker 3: A great speech from Casey Costello in the House. By
- 18:03Speaker 3: the way, I got lots of texts about Parliament TV. Ryan,
- 18:05Speaker 3: I don't watch Parliament TV. Doesn't sound like I'm missing anything.
- 18:08Speaker 3: It's a shame because it can be interested. It's one
- 18:10Speaker 3: of those things that's good to have on in the
- 18:12Speaker 3: background while you're doing other stuff and occasionally someone will
- 18:15Speaker 3: say something interesting. It's one of those Ryan never seen
- 18:18Speaker 3: or heard this behavior before in Parliament says, and this
- 18:21Speaker 3: is about the sort of decorum in the House. The
- 18:24Speaker 3: problem with Parliament TV is you can watch it on freeview,
- 18:28Speaker 3: but if you try and watch it online, they've changed
- 18:30Speaker 3: the way that you can watch it and it's no
- 18:31Speaker 3: longer as efficient. So I think they need to put
- 18:34Speaker 3: it on YouTube anyway. That's by the bye. Casey Costello
- 18:37Speaker 3: gave a speech. This is after Benjamin Doyle, who was
- 18:39Speaker 3: the Greens and who exit stage left. He gave quite
- 18:43Speaker 3: a scathing speech his valedictory, I suppose because he was
- 18:47Speaker 3: leaving the house after two minutes and he said that
- 18:50Speaker 3: it's not a safe place Parliament. It's a hostile place
- 18:53Speaker 3: unless you're a Cis white man. And then Casey Costello
- 18:57Speaker 3: comes in and says, actually, what are you to talking about?
- 19:00Speaker 3: Who are the leaders of your party?
- 19:02Speaker 16: We had to endure a narrative that was not only
- 19:05Speaker 16: an insult to members of this side of the House,
- 19:09Speaker 16: but to the party that brought that member to this parliament.
- 19:13Speaker 16: The member was an MP and a party led by
- 19:16Speaker 16: two women. Yet we were told this is a hostile
- 19:20Speaker 16: and toxic place unless you're a CIS white man in
- 19:25Speaker 16: a black suit and a briefcase.
- 19:27Speaker 3: Fired up. Casey Costalgia didn't stop there either.
- 19:30Speaker 16: What an insult to our proud legacy, the country that
- 19:33Speaker 16: was the first to give women the vote in the world.
- 19:37Speaker 16: The cowardice and ignorance of that parting shot by a
- 19:41Speaker 16: member who did nothing to use the privilege afforded by
- 19:45Speaker 16: being an MP in this parliament to throw parting shots
- 19:49Speaker 16: run out the door, believing there would be.
- 19:51Speaker 10: No right of reply.
- 19:53Speaker 16: Well, mister speaker, I am replying.
- 19:57Speaker 3: Wet you to away from the sex color Proctor and
- 19:59Speaker 3: Anne for us this morning. Calum, good morning, morning right,
- 20:02Speaker 3: So we've got a good breeding from the albatross this season.
- 20:05Speaker 9: Dear, most successful breeding season on record for our Royal Albatross, Ryan.
- 20:11Speaker 9: Thirty eight chicks have fledged from the tid Or Head
- 20:13Speaker 9: colony here on the Otago Peninsula. Eighteen of those chicks
- 20:18Speaker 9: are fitted with GPS trackers and most already well across
- 20:24Speaker 9: the Pacific heading for South America. The previous season record
- 20:27Speaker 9: was thirty three chicks that was set in the past
- 20:30Speaker 9: two seasons, but thirty eight for this one. The colony's
- 20:33Speaker 9: grown from one breeding pair back in nineteen thirty seven
- 20:35Speaker 9: to more than eighteen. How Doc says it's fitting to
- 20:38Speaker 9: have such a strong year as the colonies round the
- 20:40Speaker 9: clock live stream Royal cam is celebrating its tenth season.
- 20:45Speaker 7: Very cool.
- 20:45Speaker 3: How's your weather?
- 20:47Speaker 9: Good day to be an albatross. Fine with strong norwesterlies
- 20:50Speaker 9: and twenty two today.
- 20:52Speaker 3: Thanks calm clear and christs. Hey Claire, good morning. You've
- 20:55Speaker 3: got a push there from a school to get attendance up.
- 20:59Speaker 17: Yeah, and holy school principal believes this could be a
- 21:02Speaker 17: first for New Zealand. What the school's doing is promising
- 21:05Speaker 17: free stationary and uniforms next year to any students who
- 21:09Speaker 17: attend more than eighty percent of school time this term.
- 21:13Speaker 7: Now.
- 21:13Speaker 17: Anonymous donors are behind this initiative, funding it. The principal,
- 21:17Speaker 17: Graham Norman, says this is just another step to help
- 21:20Speaker 17: the school's very low rate of attendance. He says they
- 21:23Speaker 17: also pick some students up in school vans to take
- 21:26Speaker 17: them to school. As a result, they do have attendance
- 21:29Speaker 17: rates growing. Norman says their community is really behind this idea.
- 21:33Speaker 17: They love it as it's something that can take the
- 21:35Speaker 17: pressure off the family at what is a very busy
- 21:38Speaker 17: time of year.
- 21:38Speaker 3: Okay, drive them to school. Who would have thought? How's
- 21:40Speaker 3: your weather?
- 21:42Speaker 17: Partly cloudy, A few showers from late this morning could
- 21:44Speaker 17: be heavy, then clearing to a fine afternoon northwesterlies turning
- 21:48Speaker 17: colder southwesterly a bit later and twenty.
- 21:50Speaker 3: All right, thank you Claire and Maxis and Wellington this morning.
- 21:53Speaker 3: Hey Max, good morning Tamotha. Paul's been in hospital. Yeah,
- 21:57Speaker 3: heart procedure.
- 21:58Speaker 6: This is the time of the Paul the Green play
- 22:00Speaker 6: Wellington Central MP last night sharing a photo of herself
- 22:03Speaker 6: in Wellington Hospital a cardiac procedure where my doctors correct
- 22:08Speaker 6: and irregular heartbeat. She posted about it on social media,
- 22:11Speaker 6: starting her post simply I am disabled, full stop, and
- 22:14Speaker 6: then going on to say I am one of the
- 22:16Speaker 6: most disabled MPs, but try to keep this to myself
- 22:19Speaker 6: because I worry people will use it against me. Paul
- 22:22Speaker 6: says she also suffers from lupus, a rheumatoid arthritis. We
- 22:26Speaker 6: of course wish her the best. Her post also takes
- 22:28Speaker 6: a bit of a crack at Simeon Brown, a health
- 22:30Speaker 6: minister who clashed here in Wellington with some senior doctors
- 22:34Speaker 6: yesterday at their annual conference. Paul says she wants them
- 22:37Speaker 6: to strike. Simeon Brown believes they're crossing an ethical line
- 22:41Speaker 6: by picketing.
- 22:42Speaker 3: I hope she's okay. Did she really say I'm one
- 22:45Speaker 3: of the most disabled the MP's in Parliament?
- 22:47Speaker 7: Yeah?
- 22:48Speaker 6: It almost seems a bit braggy, doesn't it, But of
- 22:51Speaker 6: course in ill health at the moment.
- 22:53Speaker 3: We still wish her the best. But a bit of
- 22:55Speaker 3: an odd way to start a sentence. It's an unusual
- 22:57Speaker 3: just a point to point out but unusual.
- 22:59Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 22:59Speaker 3: Hey, how's your weather?
- 23:00Speaker 6: Yeah, mostly fine today gusty Northerly's fifteen the high centrals on.
- 23:04Speaker 3: Thank you, Michael, good morning to you.
- 23:06Speaker 5: Good morning.
- 23:07Speaker 3: Is Nina is Neva hiding from me? She wasn't here yesterday.
- 23:11Speaker 5: I think she's here todayware She's around somewhere.
- 23:14Speaker 3: I can't find her, Michael. More results. We've got more
- 23:16Speaker 3: developments from local elections overnight.
- 23:18Speaker 5: Yes. Results coming through thick and fast throughout the nights,
- 23:21Speaker 5: including from Westland where there's really tight race between incumbent
- 23:24Speaker 5: Helen Nash and eighty two year old transgender businesswoman Jackie Grant.
- 23:28Speaker 5: Grant was leading early in the race, but we declared
- 23:30Speaker 5: it too close to call. The margin has been narrowing
- 23:33Speaker 5: now on these latest results, counting specials, Helen Nash has
- 23:36Speaker 5: been re elected mayor of Westland by eight votes. In Auckland,
- 23:40Speaker 5: the chief electoral officer has filed a complaint of alleged
- 23:43Speaker 5: electoral forward with police after allegations of severe elect malepractice
- 23:48Speaker 5: in Puppatoy Toy. The allegations include nightly vote stealing by
- 23:51Speaker 5: a team of young boys, voters being instructed on how
- 23:54Speaker 5: to vote inside the pollen booths and other instances of
- 23:57Speaker 5: voters in places like temples and churches being told how
- 24:00Speaker 5: to vote. We won't get final results for Auckland until
- 24:03Speaker 5: at least tomorrow now due to the sheer number of
- 24:05Speaker 5: special votes cast in the big city in Kaipua District.
- 24:08Speaker 5: We're expecting results today from that really tight mil race
- 24:11Speaker 5: three way race at the moment, outgoing mayor Craig Jepson
- 24:14Speaker 5: has called an unprecedented council meeting last night, saying he
- 24:17Speaker 5: isn't happy with how the election was operated and he
- 24:19Speaker 5: wants to ensure key Wes have a fear process. The
- 24:22Speaker 5: meeting was adjourned last night after interjections from members of
- 24:25Speaker 5: the public. It will resume again at nine aime of
- 24:27Speaker 5: this morning.
- 24:27Speaker 3: All kicked off, got a bit rowdy, didn't it make
- 24:29Speaker 3: it already?
- 24:29Speaker 14: Did?
- 24:30Speaker 3: Michael Seviel, who's our local government specialist with us in Auckland, and.
- 24:35Speaker 5: Just quickly on the weather fine apart from the crowds
- 24:37Speaker 5: and nineteen.
- 24:38Speaker 3: Degrees forgive me, you should be doing this. Michael seventeen
- 24:42Speaker 3: away from Sex News Talk ZEBB. Vincent mcavnie is in
- 24:45Speaker 3: the UK for US next. Accorded to six News talk ZBB.
- 24:48Speaker 3: So four hundred and ten thousand people are on a
- 24:51Speaker 3: benefit right now. We had new numbers from MSD yesterday,
- 24:54Speaker 3: four hundred and ten thousand. That is a new record.
- 24:58Speaker 3: And job seeker benefits up six point four percent to
- 25:02Speaker 3: two hundred and seventeen thousand, eight hundred people are on
- 25:05Speaker 3: a job seeker benefit right now. Guess what, that's also
- 25:07Speaker 3: a record high. And this is Louise Upston's job. And
- 25:11Speaker 3: she's also tourism and that is improving. So she's going
- 25:13Speaker 3: to have a mixed bag when it comes to the
- 25:15Speaker 3: annual review. Sitting down for a one on one with
- 25:17Speaker 3: lux Income Christmas fourteen to six.
- 25:19Speaker 1: Now International correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance, Peace of
- 25:23Speaker 1: mind for New Zealand business.
- 25:26Speaker 3: Whatster b my five warning about Chinese spies? Vincent mcavini
- 25:30Speaker 3: are UK europe Correspondent Vince and welcome, Hi, good morning.
- 25:34Speaker 3: So what are they saying? What's the problem with the
- 25:36Speaker 3: Chinese spies?
- 25:38Speaker 10: Well, this is the annual address by the head of
- 25:40Speaker 10: mi I five, which is the domestic intelligence service here
- 25:43Speaker 10: in the UK. If anyone has seen the show Slow Horses,
- 25:47Speaker 10: they will know about what it does. You know on
- 25:50Speaker 10: fictionally at least, but the head of m I five
- 25:52Speaker 10: saying the big threat at the moment is a continuous
- 25:55Speaker 10: disruption of national security by Chinese agents include one concern
- 26:01Speaker 10: and operations stopped just in the past week. This is
- 26:05Speaker 10: rattling on as the UK tries to reset its relationship
- 26:08Speaker 10: with China, trying to get more investment for the country.
- 26:11Speaker 10: But at the moment they're trying to convert a historic building,
- 26:13Speaker 10: the old Royal Mint opposite the Tower of London, into
- 26:16Speaker 10: a new mega embassy, the biggest in Europe that's been
- 26:19Speaker 10: continuously rejected, partially on security grounds. So it is a
- 26:24Speaker 10: very difficult relationship that the UK is trying to weave
- 26:26Speaker 10: at the moment.
- 26:28Speaker 3: What about Prince Andrew in trouble again.
- 26:31Speaker 10: In trouble again, and potentially more trouble coming. An email
- 26:34Speaker 10: has come to light in the last week, which was
- 26:37Speaker 10: sent after Prince Andrew said in that famous News Night
- 26:41Speaker 10: interview with Emily Matlist that he had gone to New
- 26:43Speaker 10: York to cut off all contacts because he was so honorable. Well,
- 26:47Speaker 10: it turns out a few months later he sent an
- 26:49Speaker 10: email to Jeffrey Epstein when that photograph of him and
- 26:52Speaker 10: Virginia Geffrey surfaced in newspapers saying to Epstein, we are
- 26:56Speaker 10: in this together, that they need to keep in close touch.
- 27:00Speaker 10: He expressed a wish to quote play some more soon.
- 27:03Speaker 10: So that was damaging enough. But now a new book,
- 27:06Speaker 10: posthumously published, Virginia Jaffray's autobiography, gives new and graphic detail
- 27:13Speaker 10: about her experiences with Donald Trump in working at his
- 27:16Speaker 10: Mari A Lago club and what she was made to
- 27:18Speaker 10: do by then Jeffrey Epstein, who was connected with her
- 27:21Speaker 10: via that club, and Prince Andrew. So when that book
- 27:24Speaker 10: gets fully published, we've only got an extract at the moment,
- 27:27Speaker 10: expect more embarrassing details for the British royal family.
- 27:30Speaker 3: All right, vincentppreciate that. Vincent Mecavini a UK Europe corresponding.
- 27:33Speaker 2: Twelve to six Bryan Bridge.
- 27:35Speaker 3: The mobras reckon we need to change our suppression laws.
- 27:37Speaker 3: They're calling out people on TikTok for putting Matt Mowbray
- 27:40Speaker 3: at the center of child abuse material case. This is
- 27:43Speaker 3: the guy you might have seen it in the news jail.
- 27:45Speaker 3: His permanent name suppression media describes them as an unnamed
- 27:50Speaker 3: member of a wealthy Kiwi family. So people online start
- 27:53Speaker 3: having the Rickens as they wanted to do the wrong.
- 27:57Speaker 3: Retired Lord Professor Bill Hodge is with us this morning. Bill,
- 27:59Speaker 3: Good morning, good morning to you. Didn't my brace have
- 28:02Speaker 3: a point here?
- 28:03Speaker 7: Oh of course they do. Of course they do. They've
- 28:06Speaker 7: got a very good point. But this has been the stand.
- 28:08Speaker 7: It's not new. It's not as if they've just invented
- 28:11Speaker 7: this issue. It's been long understood that when one person's
- 28:16Speaker 7: name is suppressed, other people in the same general category
- 28:20Speaker 7: are under suspicion and rumors go around. For example, if
- 28:24Speaker 7: you said a music teacher in a high school has
- 28:28Speaker 7: been arrested, in charge, etc. Then every music teacher and
- 28:32Speaker 7: every high school is now under suspicion and has to
- 28:34Speaker 7: start to try to clear themselves. Happily, the Mowbrays seem
- 28:37Speaker 7: to be able to give enough facts to absolutely shut
- 28:41Speaker 7: down the rumor because of the clear contradictions that he's so.
- 28:46Speaker 7: But some people can't. And it is an issue. And
- 28:50Speaker 7: I think the problem is that instead of starting with
- 28:53Speaker 7: the principle of open justice, that the courts should be transparent,
- 28:58Speaker 7: the principles of just should be available to the people
- 29:02Speaker 7: so that they can know who is in the court
- 29:04Speaker 7: and why is in the court with very specific and
- 29:08Speaker 7: narrow exceptions. Isn't direct the victims? Yeah?
- 29:11Speaker 3: Yeah, Bill? Is there a difference here between somebody who
- 29:14Speaker 3: is convicted of a crime in somebody and I know
- 29:16Speaker 3: in this case that they were found guilty, but yes,
- 29:19Speaker 3: merely being charged with a crime. You know, why don't
- 29:24Speaker 3: we just say someone's been charged with a crime, not
- 29:26Speaker 3: tell you who they work for, that they're wealthy, what
- 29:29Speaker 3: their name is, anything like that.
- 29:32Speaker 7: Generally we should know who was in the court. I
- 29:37Speaker 7: can remember a few years ago before your time, that
- 29:41Speaker 7: the Labor government passed the statute providing for that for
- 29:44Speaker 7: absolute name suppression. Not long afterwards you won't remember this,
- 29:49Speaker 7: but a labor MP was involved with two boys in
- 29:54Speaker 7: a motel room and the name was suppressed, and suddenly
- 29:58Speaker 7: every single Labor MP he was saying, no, it's not me, No, no,
- 30:02Speaker 7: it's not me. So there's still the aspersion and the
- 30:06Speaker 7: rumor and the taint on the reputation of all the
- 30:10Speaker 7: people in the same category. I think we should know
- 30:13Speaker 7: who was in the court.
- 30:15Speaker 3: What can we do, what can the mobras do? And like,
- 30:17Speaker 3: if you are in the situation where you're named in
- 30:19Speaker 3: correctly what requests do you have.
- 30:22Speaker 7: Well, first of all, I think you say this person
- 30:25Speaker 7: is convicted. I think there's an appeal still going either
- 30:30Speaker 7: by you people or by the Crown that's going on
- 30:35Speaker 7: to the next level that the name should not be
- 30:37Speaker 7: permanently suppressed, although I am aware of some cases that
- 30:40Speaker 7: are because of some political appearance. In this case, if
- 30:46Speaker 7: the Mowbrays have a defendant, and I'm not really sure
- 30:49Speaker 7: how the concept of TikTok other social media can be
- 30:53Speaker 7: brought to bear. If there's a name associated with publication,
- 30:58Speaker 7: that's a good defamation act depending on exactly what was said.
- 31:02Speaker 3: Bill, appreciate your time. Bill Hodge, retired law professor. It
- 31:05Speaker 3: is eight to six, Mike here next News Talk, c B, Views.
- 31:08Speaker 1: And Views you trust to start your day. It's earlier

- 31:19Speaker 3: Away from sex Lacorner, who's the on again, off again
- 31:22Speaker 3: prime minister. Ever in France, he's survived two no confidence votes,
- 31:27Speaker 3: one from the left and one for the right, so
- 31:28Speaker 3: he lives to die another day and day will probably
- 31:31Speaker 3: come soon. If there are anything to if the previous
- 31:34Speaker 3: iterations are anything to go by Mike's in the studio
- 31:37Speaker 3: this morning on Friday, Good morning, Mike.
- 31:39Speaker 15: Was laughing this morning at your show. Ryan and I
- 31:41Speaker 15: don't often do that, but.
- 31:45Speaker 3: It was lovely to have the to have the compliments
- 31:48Speaker 3: rolling and Mike at the end of the week when
- 31:50Speaker 3: you're feeling generous.
- 31:51Speaker 15: You know how I feel about your show, Ryan. So
- 31:54Speaker 15: that those people nicking the votes in Papa toy Toe,
- 31:57Speaker 15: I mean, is that kn't have taken long because there
- 31:59Speaker 15: weren't many of them, But.
- 32:02Speaker 3: The voting booth in Kuipit, I mean, who knows if
- 32:04Speaker 3: any of this is true exactly? You know what I mean.
- 32:06Speaker 15: But this is the weirdest thing for something that really
- 32:09Speaker 15: we couldn't give the monkeys about, but now we're more
- 32:12Speaker 15: interested in the after effects.
- 32:14Speaker 3: Of This is the most interesting thing that has happened
- 32:16Speaker 3: during the local body election.
- 32:18Speaker 15: It's weird, isn't as listen to a bill before this?
- 32:20Speaker 15: But tell you what, the b s A thing yesterday
- 32:22Speaker 15: and the Phillips thing all tie in together if you
- 32:25Speaker 15: think about it. So the Phillips defamation thing, you know,
- 32:27Speaker 15: the gagging order is a good example of what the
- 32:31Speaker 15: Mowbrays are currently dealing with in terms of the Internet has.
- 32:35Speaker 3: Destroyed everything we understand.
- 32:36Speaker 15: Well, you know, you forget your courts. See, the courts
- 32:38Speaker 15: can't stand the idea and I mean we all I
- 32:42Speaker 15: think we all agree. The courts can't stand the idea
- 32:44Speaker 15: that they no longer have any control over us. And
- 32:46Speaker 15: that's the difficulty they face.
- 32:48Speaker 3: Well, thing that I don't not so sure on is
- 32:50Speaker 3: if you are yet to be convicted of it more No, absolutely,
- 32:53Speaker 3: it's the innocence. You couldn't agree with. Consumption of innocence. Yeah,
- 32:57Speaker 3: your name, Your name can be out there and they say, oh,
- 33:01Speaker 3: well you might identify if they said, you know, broadcasters
- 33:03Speaker 3: or whatever. Then everyone else does well, just don't say
- 33:06Speaker 3: what their job.
- 33:06Speaker 15: But media has got a Media has got a roll
- 33:08Speaker 15: because the Herald in particular are fascinated with this is
- 33:11Speaker 15: the whole well known sportsman and you're like well known entertainer.
- 33:15Speaker 3: I mean, what hell is that? It's the biggest come
- 33:18Speaker 3: down when you find out how it is.
- 33:20Speaker 2: You don't know.
- 33:21Speaker 15: There's a guy accused currently of a certain behavior at
