- 1:19Speaker 3: I was told Dana that the American by the American

- 2:05Speaker 4: Hello, my name is Louise.
- 2:07Speaker 5: I'm twenty four years old and I'm here.
- 2:13Speaker 3: I'm here because I don't know the future.
- 2:16Speaker 2: The law doesn't and shouldn't care what your cause is.
- 2:20Speaker 2: It cares the damage that the cause does, in this case,
- 2:23Speaker 2: disrupting seven hundred thousand motorists, no doubt, including ambulances, economic
- 2:28Speaker 2: damage with one point six million dollars and two point

- 2:43Speaker 2: and there you can.
- 2:43Speaker 6: See you.
- 2:47Speaker 3: Got it.
- 2:48Speaker 4: The first word on the News of the Day early
- 2:51Speaker 4: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture
- 2:55Speaker 4: Beds and a playing store News Talk.
- 2:57Speaker 2: Siddy the numbered de text I'd love to hear from
- 3:00Speaker 2: you this morning. We'll also have a little bit on
- 3:02Speaker 2: Elon Musk, who reckons that we will be on Mars,
- 3:05Speaker 2: staying on Mars for four years at a time within
- 3:08Speaker 2: twenty years. Ambitious. But he's an ambitious guy, isn't he.
- 3:12Speaker 2: Let's talk about this latest open letter to the Prime Minister.
- 3:16Speaker 2: How many another day, another open letter to the Prime Minister. Honestly,
- 3:19Speaker 2: how many of these are we going to get? This
- 3:21Speaker 2: is courtesy of co authored by Dave Cliff, chief Executive
- 3:25Speaker 2: of the Global Road Safety Partnership, and Professor Simon Kingham
- 3:29Speaker 2: of the University of Canterbury. It's basically, from what I
- 3:31Speaker 2: can make out, some academics and then there's a few
- 3:34Speaker 2: consultants on there. Now I'm assuming these consultants are tied
- 3:38Speaker 2: up in reducing or doing the work to reduce our
- 3:42Speaker 2: speed limits under the last government, so they're going to
- 3:44Speaker 2: miss out on a whole bunch of work. What they're
- 3:46Speaker 2: upset about is that we're going to increase some speed limits.
- 3:50Speaker 2: So the government's consulting this on it at the moment
- 3:53Speaker 2: they say, these signatories warn the Prime Minister and the
- 3:57Speaker 2: public that raising speed limits will lead to more fatalities
- 4:01Speaker 2: and severe life altering injuries on New Zealand's roads. Okay,
- 4:06Speaker 2: so increasing the speeds will kill us is the argument here.
- 4:10Speaker 2: They say that also it's going to kill us via
- 4:13Speaker 2: climate change. So higher speeds contribute to increased fuel consumption
- 4:18Speaker 2: and elevated CO two and nitrogen dioxide emissions. So not
- 4:23Speaker 2: only are we killing ourselves on the roads now, we
- 4:26Speaker 2: are killing ourselves for generations to come. So don't increase
- 4:31Speaker 2: the speeds, but also don't build new roads which are
- 4:35Speaker 2: ironically far safer, aren't they. I was driving actually on
- 4:39Speaker 2: the weekend, went up to pie Here, beautiful stretch of road.
- 4:43Speaker 2: Once you get to until you get to I should
- 4:45Speaker 2: say Walkworth. You know, it's like it's like gliding on
- 4:49Speaker 2: one of those escalators at the airport, going along that beautiful,
- 4:53Speaker 2: brand new, pristine motorway and then suddenly whack you hit
- 4:57Speaker 2: Walkworth and it's like clunk, crash, doff. It's like you're
- 5:01Speaker 2: in a sidecar at the speedway wondering how soon until
- 5:05Speaker 2: you die. It's frightening. So anyway you can't do you
- 5:09Speaker 2: can't go faster, and you can't build new roads, so
- 5:11Speaker 2: that you go eleven minutes after five ray and Bridge.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Who needs roads when you've got Jet Star. Jetstar is
- 5:26Speaker 2: coming New Zealand. Direct flights out of New Zealand. You
- 5:28Speaker 2: get yourself a trady gig on the Gold Coast and
- 5:31Speaker 2: fly direct from the tron higher wages over in Australia.
- 5:38Speaker 2: You don't want to stop over in christ Church from Dunedin,
- 5:40Speaker 2: no worries. They're going to take you straight to the
- 5:43Speaker 2: Goldie from Dunedin This is all happening from the middle
- 5:46Speaker 2: of next year, So Hamilton to Gold Coast in Sydney,

- 5:51Speaker 2: thousand new seats in the skies thanks to jet Star.
- 5:55Speaker 2: Hamilton reckons it'll be a forty five million dollar boost
- 5:59Speaker 2: to their regional me brilliant. Nothing like a bit of competition.
- 6:03Speaker 2: No one likes fining them because, let's face it, they're
- 6:06Speaker 2: not as good as in New Zealand, but a flight
- 6:08Speaker 2: is a flight and these are cheap too. Hamilton Sydney
- 6:11Speaker 2: hundred and thirty, Hamilton Gold Coast one hundred and thirty nine,

- 6:35Speaker 4: a playing store.
- 6:36Speaker 2: News Talk zaid be quarter past five yews Talk said
- 6:39Speaker 2: be nine two nine two to text Ryan. My daughter
- 6:41Speaker 2: is one of those non registered teachers. Her registration lapsed
- 6:46Speaker 2: when she had her three children. It was going to
- 6:48Speaker 2: cost her thousands to reset the exams. She has been
- 6:51Speaker 2: in huge demand by a private school for two years
- 6:55Speaker 2: and is now one of their top teachers. This is
- 6:57Speaker 2: about unregistered teachers looking after you kids in the classroom.
- 7:02Speaker 2: The government is proposing that we can allow much more
- 7:07Speaker 2: for relief teachers, and the PPTA is unhappy because and
- 7:12Speaker 2: I'm trying to figure out, is it just because they
- 7:14Speaker 2: are as an organization, you know, anti this government, so
- 7:17Speaker 2: they're just upset about everything, or is there a deeper
- 7:21Speaker 2: issue here which we'll look at. Just before six it
- 7:23Speaker 2: is called a part sorry sixteen past five. Now one
- 7:27Speaker 2: in one million New Zealanders are suffering from respiratory disease.
- 7:31Speaker 2: That's far worse than previously thought. This is according to
- 7:34Speaker 2: a new report from the Asthma and Respiratory Foundation, which
- 7:37Speaker 2: found one in five Kiwis are affected. Previously twenty twenty one,
- 7:41Speaker 2: that was one in seven. Bob Hancocks is the Asthma
- 7:44Speaker 2: and Ripchestery Foundation medical director, Professor. He's with us this morning.
- 7:47Speaker 2: Good morning, good morning, How are you good? Thank you Bob.
- 7:51Speaker 2: How did we get something really wrong here or how
- 7:54Speaker 2: did why the big difference?
- 7:57Speaker 7: I think we've just got better data now, as these
- 8:00Speaker 7: reports have been done in updated several times each time,
- 8:04Speaker 7: we have better data and we get a more accurate
- 8:08Speaker 7: idea of just how many people are suffering from a
- 8:11Speaker 7: respiratory disease. So I think that's why the difference.
- 8:14Speaker 2: One and five. How do we compare to other similar countries.
- 8:20Speaker 7: That's a good question. We haven't done a direct comparison.
- 8:23Speaker 7: I suspect we're not. We would be in the leading
- 8:26Speaker 7: leading the pact, but probably may not be much further
- 8:30Speaker 7: ahead compared to countries and Australia and Britain and other
- 8:34Speaker 7: places that we might compare ourselves to because they have
- 8:37Speaker 7: major problems with respiratory disease as well. But at least
- 8:40Speaker 7: with this report, which was like an excellent report from
- 8:43Speaker 7: Lucy Tafa Barnard and James Zang, at least with this report,
- 8:46Speaker 7: we've got a better handle on how much of a
- 8:49Speaker 7: problem we have out there, and then you know, if
- 8:51Speaker 7: we're going to do anything about it. That's really really important.
- 8:55Speaker 2: What diseases are we talking about, SMER and things like that.
- 8:59Speaker 7: Well, the report mostly covers asthma, CPD and other disease
- 9:03Speaker 7: of the airways called Bronchie Exorcist, which people may or
- 9:06Speaker 7: may not have heard of. But the big two are asthma,
- 9:09Speaker 7: and COPD. It also looked at pneumonia in children and
- 9:16Speaker 7: as well, because that's also of concern. But there is
- 9:19Speaker 7: some good news in here. The good news is that
- 9:24Speaker 7: with the work of a number of health professionals around
- 9:28Speaker 7: New Zealand and the Foundation, we have managed to improve
- 9:33Speaker 7: some of those statistics. So we haven't reduced a number
- 9:37Speaker 7: of people with asthma, but we've certainly made a big
- 9:39Speaker 7: dent in the number of people who have severe enough
- 9:41Speaker 7: asthma that they need to come to hospital. So the
- 9:45Speaker 7: Foundation set a target a few years ago, trying to
- 9:48Speaker 7: get a twenty five percent reduction in hospitalizations by twenty
- 9:53Speaker 7: twenty five. And we've already hit that tiger for asthma,
- 9:55Speaker 7: and we've already hit that tiger for COPD. So there
- 9:59Speaker 7: is good news in your as well as a wake
- 10:01Speaker 7: up called just how many people are suffering from respiratory disease.
- 10:04Speaker 2: All right, interesting stuff, Bob, Thank you very much for
- 10:06Speaker 2: your time. We really appreciate it. Bob Hancock's Asthma and
- 10:09Speaker 2: Respiratory Foundation Medical Director professor telling us there that yes,
- 10:13Speaker 2: things have gotten worse because we are perhaps accounting for
- 10:16Speaker 2: them better. One in five, not one in seven, of
- 10:19Speaker 2: us suffer from a respiratory disease, but we are managing
- 10:24Speaker 2: to stay out of hospital. Well more of us managing
- 10:27Speaker 2: to stay out of hospital with those conditions. Just gone
- 10:30Speaker 2: nineteen minutes after five. Coming up next a scammer, a
- 10:32Speaker 2: new one. And normally I wouldn't bother because how many
- 10:36Speaker 2: times can you tell someone that not to be scammed?
- 10:39Speaker 2: You know what I mean? But this is interesting. This
- 10:42Speaker 2: is a new scam that's coming and it doesn't actually
- 10:45Speaker 2: involve you looking at your phone or your computer. Also
- 10:48Speaker 2: over in the UK, big argument about who pays for
- 10:52Speaker 2: the PM's suit, News.
- 10:53Speaker 4: And views you trust to start your day, It's early
- 10:57Speaker 4: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City Land's furniture beds
- 11:01Speaker 4: and a flying store.
- 11:02Speaker 2: News Talk ZBB twenty one after five. News Talk said
- 11:05Speaker 2: b Ryan never had a relief teacher teach me. They
- 11:08Speaker 2: just sit up the front watching the clock telling you
- 11:10Speaker 2: that you need to read a book. I don't think
- 11:13Speaker 2: you need a teaching qualification to do that. This is
- 11:16Speaker 2: about whether you trust a non registered teacher. Well, are
- 11:21Speaker 2: they even a teacher? Then there's a non registered person
- 11:24Speaker 2: being a relief teacher for your kid. Nine two nine
- 11:26Speaker 2: to us the number to text the PPTA is on
- 11:28Speaker 2: just before six. Lots more of this is going to happen.
- 11:30Speaker 2: We'll tell you why very quickly. A scam alert. It's
- 11:33Speaker 2: quite novel. This one so worth a mention. Actually, Andrew
- 11:37Speaker 2: Ordison's in the studio, so Andrew for a sport. But
- 11:39Speaker 2: you should listen up, Andrew. Okay, on all the ears, Ryan,
- 11:43Speaker 2: So an unexpected package arrives not on your phone, not
- 11:47Speaker 2: in your computer, but to your physical address. This is
- 11:50Speaker 2: part one of the scam. There's a QR code inside
- 11:52Speaker 2: of it and it appears to be a gift and
- 11:54Speaker 2: they say scan the QR code. So you scan the
- 11:57Speaker 2: QR code and within a wosh of a second it
- 12:01Speaker 2: has taken your financial information, including your bank account log
- 12:05Speaker 2: and details, all of your personal data, basically everything off
- 12:08Speaker 2: your phone. It's gone at the click of a QR code.
- 12:14Speaker 2: So be careful out there. I guess it's the moral
- 12:17Speaker 2: of the story. Police of warning people in New Zealand
- 12:19Speaker 2: has only happened overseas so far criky. That is scary,
- 12:22Speaker 2: it is.
- 12:23Speaker 8: I just want to think of our magnificent male woman
- 12:26Speaker 8: at home, Heather, coming to the door with you and then.
- 12:29Speaker 2: Scanning a QR code and everything's out the door. That's
- 12:32Speaker 2: just that's outrageous. Why would you let the scanning of
- 12:37Speaker 2: a QR code? Why would you let so much information out?
- 12:40Speaker 2: You know, like Apple when they make the phones, How
- 12:43Speaker 2: would why why would you allow that to happen?
- 12:45Speaker 8: And some serious coding.
- 12:47Speaker 2: Serious coding. Hey, let's go to the F one overnight
- 12:50Speaker 2: and Yan.
- 12:52Speaker 8: Yeah, well overnight to Oscar Piastree has taken that out, Ryan,
- 12:55Speaker 8: and that's I guess the biggest scheme of things here
- 12:58Speaker 8: is that by winning for with Claire and it's the
- 13:00Speaker 8: second Formula One victory, it's one in Hungary as well
- 13:03Speaker 8: this season Max for STARp and the championship leader in
- 13:06Speaker 8: the individual stand driver standings is fifth and Landon Norris
- 13:11Speaker 8: is fourth, but McLaren now overtaking Red Bull in the
- 13:14Speaker 8: constructor standing so they've got twenty point lead. Not much
- 13:17Speaker 8: at this stage, but whether I think, what seven races
- 13:19Speaker 8: to go in the season, but I just think we're
- 13:22Speaker 8: in for a real showdown there, and it's perhaps the
- 13:25Speaker 8: changing of the guard. So that's probably the biggest story
- 13:28Speaker 8: in relation to that. And there's been a massive crash
- 13:30Speaker 8: as well, or at least in the context of the race,
- 13:33Speaker 8: Ferrari's color signs and red Bulls, Sergio Perez just in
- 13:38Speaker 8: second and third and knocking themselves out of contention for
- 13:41Speaker 8: the podium just with a couple of leaps to go.
- 13:43Speaker 8: I think it was under safety, Carl the race finished.
- 13:46Speaker 2: I heard the audio in your news.
- 13:49Speaker 8: Colorful is the descriptions.
- 13:50Speaker 2: Very colorful them America's cut the Challenger Series. But if
- 13:53Speaker 2: you're going, if you're going at three k what around
- 13:56Speaker 2: I mentioned colorful is expected, it would be stressful.
- 13:58Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, now yeah, America's Cup.
- 14:01Speaker 2: Now that's taken another turn. It's fairly straightforward.
- 14:04Speaker 8: Both of the semi final Challenges Series races or duels
- 14:08Speaker 8: at the moment are on match point. So what's got
- 14:12Speaker 8: in Your Britannia. They've defeated a Lingy by two minutes,
- 14:16Speaker 8: twenty seconds and forty eight, so they're up four nil
- 14:18Speaker 8: as Luna ross who's beaten American Magic by twenty six
- 14:22Speaker 8: and two seconds respectively. So it's looking like it'll be
- 14:26Speaker 8: a showdown between Luna Rossa and In Your Britannia at
- 14:30Speaker 8: this stage anyway, to see who's going to race against
- 14:34Speaker 8: defender Team New Zealand. But as we know in America's Cup.
- 14:37Speaker 2: Things can change.
- 14:38Speaker 8: As we saw in twenty thirteen, it's not over till
- 14:41Speaker 8: it's over.
- 14:41Speaker 2: The Black Ferns won the Hug, but lost them at
- 14:44Speaker 2: the game.
- 14:46Speaker 8: Yeah, I think one hearts and minds is there how
- 14:49Speaker 8: we describe it these days?
- 14:50Speaker 2: I think so.
- 14:51Speaker 8: But did lose taking them up against fairy, formidable opposition
- 14:54Speaker 8: in England's I think that's seventeen wins in a row
- 14:57Speaker 8: now for the English side. Last time I lost was
- 15:00Speaker 8: a Eden Park in that World Cup final in twenty
- 15:02Speaker 8: twenty two. But now they go on to the WXV
- 15:05Speaker 8: Tilament in Canada. The Black Ferns, but you're putting up
- 15:09Speaker 8: a decent show in but England just too strong. I
- 15:11Speaker 8: mean I did have I think it was fifty seven
- 15:13Speaker 8: percent of possession the Black Ferns, so the opportunities were there,
- 15:16Speaker 8: but couldn't counter against England defense.
- 15:19Speaker 2: Not quite enough. Andrew, thank you for that scams exactly,
- 15:23Speaker 2: the careful opening that mailbox. Twenty six after five News
- 15:26Speaker 2: Talks have been the early.
- 15:28Speaker 4: Edition full show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by News.
- 15:31Speaker 2: Talks at me Over in the UK, Labour's leader was
- 15:35Speaker 2: using donations private donations to pay for his wife's wardrobe.
- 15:39Speaker 2: All of this has come out overnight, personal shoppers, clothes alterations.
- 15:44Speaker 2: This for campaign events and after the campaign as wellcare
- 15:48Speaker 2: Starmer's wife Victoria was dressed to the nines apparently wasn't
- 15:53Speaker 2: declared as a donation, wasn't declared, has now been declared
- 15:58Speaker 2: as a donation. This is from labor in a. Wahid
- 16:01Speaker 2: Ali and David Lamy, the Foreign Secretary, has been willed
- 16:04Speaker 2: out to explain it.
- 16:06Speaker 9: In our country, there isn't a budget for the prime
- 16:09Speaker 9: minister's clothes or his wife's clothes. In some countries there's
- 16:14Speaker 9: a substantial budget. I've just come back from America, where
- 16:16Speaker 9: there is a substantial budget to ensure that the US
- 16:20Speaker 9: President and the first Lady their appearance can never be challenged.
- 16:25Speaker 2: I think we should publicly fund our leader's wardrobes. I'm
- 16:31Speaker 2: just going to put it out there. I think we should.
- 16:33Speaker 2: It's important how we look on the world stage. If
- 16:35Speaker 2: you're going to in the world of geopolitics and diplomacy,
- 16:38Speaker 2: you need to look good, you need to look sharp,
- 16:40Speaker 2: and you need to look smart. You know, we don't
- 16:42Speaker 2: want to be looking like some crackpot banana republic in
- 16:45Speaker 2: a mumu do we when we go into these events.
- 16:49Speaker 2: I think we should be publicly funded. And the rules
- 16:52Speaker 2: at the moment aren't really clear on whether you are
- 16:56Speaker 2: allowed to use your allowance for clothing or not. This
- 17:00Speaker 2: is the politicians allowances. So I'll tell you what the
- 17:03Speaker 2: rule's say in just a couple of minutes. But I think,
- 17:05Speaker 2: just as a they're representing us, we need to look good.
- 17:11Speaker 2: I'm not against publicly funding their wardrobes. Twenty nine after five.
- 17:20Speaker 4: Ryan Bridge New for twenty twenty four on early edition
- 17:24Speaker 4: with Smith City, New Zealand's furniture Beds and a playing store.
- 17:28Speaker 2: News Talk Sibby, good morning, Welcome to your Monday. It
- 17:43Speaker 2: is the sixth thenth to September, twenty four minutes away
- 17:45Speaker 2: from sixth grade. To have your company. The Federal Reserve
- 17:48Speaker 2: in the US I think will go half instead of
- 17:51Speaker 2: a quarter percent cut when they look at this on
- 17:54Speaker 2: Thursday our time. Currently the ranges five point two five
- 17:58Speaker 2: percent to five point five percent. The highest it's two
- 18:00Speaker 2: thousand and one. They are at no real risk of
- 18:02Speaker 2: recession in my opinion anyway. So we'll find out that
- 18:06Speaker 2: this week. There's just one prediction for you. I'll have
- 18:08Speaker 2: one on the rugby before six o'clock as well, not
- 18:12Speaker 2: that you should trust it. Hey, lots of feedback on
- 18:15Speaker 2: Jetstar which is going to do flights from Nadin straight
- 18:19Speaker 2: to the Gold Coast and Sydney and from Hamilton to
- 18:22Speaker 2: the Gold Coast. Good morning, Ryan, good luck to Jetstar
- 18:25Speaker 2: for coming to Hamilton. But this has been tried on
- 18:27Speaker 2: several occasions, starting with Kiwi Era in nineteen ninety five,

- 20:21Speaker 11: while Picky Armor Kura is aimed to empower young people.
- 20:24Speaker 11: The Mayor there, Sam Broughton, says it's vital they have
- 20:27Speaker 11: a vision and a plan for each of those group's needs.
- 20:29Speaker 11: A third of Salwyn's population is under twenty four, while
- 20:33Speaker 11: it's also projected to be the fasting fastest aging district
- 20:37Speaker 11: in thirty years now. Broughton says the council will be

- 20:47Speaker 2: So lots of old people, lots of young people. All sandwich,
- 20:49Speaker 2: no filling, Clai. How's you weather today.
- 20:53Speaker 11: Cloudy with fine spells increasing this morning southwest of these
- 20:56Speaker 11: easing the high as twelve.
- 20:58Speaker 2: Thank you, Max Tolsnwelling and good ams. Great news for
- 21:01Speaker 2: your rights forecast. Good morning.
- 21:04Speaker 5: Yeah yeah. The typical rates bill expected to increase by
- 21:09Speaker 5: about three thousand dollars by twenty twenty eight. That would
- 21:12Speaker 5: essentially be about fifty percent higher than what Wellingtonians are
- 21:16Speaker 5: paying right now, so a pretty gloomy outlook. The latest
- 21:20Speaker 5: increase was about twenty one percent, give or take this.
- 21:23Speaker 5: A new council projection takes into account water and leaky pipes,
- 21:27Speaker 5: of course, also helping pay for a facility to process
- 21:31Speaker 5: waste water. The mayor has commented on it, points to
- 21:35Speaker 5: historic under investment in cycle way and again defending cycle ways,
- 21:41Speaker 5: pointing out they cost sorry under investment in infrastructure, again
- 21:45Speaker 5: defending cycle ways, pointing out cycle ways cost about two
- 21:48Speaker 5: percent of all councils spending year by year.
- 21:51Speaker 2: Goodness mat right with it today?
- 21:54Speaker 5: Periods of rain possibly heavy twelve the high Central excellent.
- 21:58Speaker 2: Thank you. That is a lot of money, isn't it.
- 22:00Speaker 2: Neva's an Auckland for us this morning. Good morning, Neva,
- 22:02Speaker 2: good morning.
- 22:03Speaker 12: I was just listening to your conversation about whether we
- 22:06Speaker 12: should pay for and I think we should.
- 22:09Speaker 2: I think so too.
- 22:10Speaker 13: He should give a stylist, at least.
- 22:12Speaker 2: Do you think he needs one?
- 22:14Speaker 12: Saying well, I mean I think so, just to say, hey, look,
- 22:17Speaker 12: you know purple is not your color but yellowish?
- 22:20Speaker 2: Yeah, right, nothing too.
- 22:21Speaker 13: Tight around the middle. But what about this kind of February.
- 22:25Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting because over in the UK they obviously
- 22:28Speaker 2: have donors who are paying for it. That's the news
- 22:30Speaker 2: this morning. In America, it's self funded. Most of these
- 22:34Speaker 2: guys are rich any way out. Oh yeah, okay, But
- 22:36Speaker 2: I just think if you're going to put yourself out
- 22:38Speaker 2: there on the world stage, you should make sure that
- 22:41Speaker 2: you that you do look good.
- 22:42Speaker 13: And we want them to look good, don't we.
- 22:43Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 22:44Speaker 13: I mean when you were on TV, did you have
- 22:45Speaker 13: a clothing.
- 22:46Speaker 2: I had a clothing allowance. Yes, but actually the girls
- 22:49Speaker 2: got more than the boys. Really, But to be fair,
- 22:52Speaker 2: guys mostly just wear suits. You know, you could wear
- 22:55Speaker 2: the same sit were.
- 22:56Speaker 12: You about to choose or did you have someone say, hey, Ryan,
- 22:59Speaker 12: green is in your color?
- 23:00Speaker 2: They had a stylist who you could go shopping with. Yes,
- 23:04Speaker 2: and so Sarah, she was fantastic. But yeah, the girl's
- 23:07Speaker 2: got more money. Always used to think it was unfair
- 23:09Speaker 2: because the girls got the same or they got more
- 23:11Speaker 2: grooming allowance. But I've got this you know, this beer
- 23:14Speaker 2: that I needed to get shaved all the time, which
- 23:15Speaker 2: is quite pricey to get done.
- 23:17Speaker 13: And then you're here and you've got quite thick here
- 23:19Speaker 13: as well.
- 23:20Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 23:21Speaker 12: No, I think that's yeah. They should have given you
- 23:23Speaker 12: the same same amount exactly.
- 23:25Speaker 2: Otherwise it's sexist.
- 23:27Speaker 12: Yes, it is quite right anyway, good way to start
- 23:30Speaker 12: the morning.
- 23:31Speaker 2: Hey, cell phone's the band?
- 23:33Speaker 12: Yes, Now look this Auckland School says banning cell phones
- 23:36Speaker 12: has brought positive changes. I love this, including a rugby
- 23:39Speaker 12: ball going through a window for the first time in
- 23:41Speaker 12: years now. This is Mount Albert Grammar School. They ban
- 23:44Speaker 12: cell phones during school hours. This is at the start
- 23:46Speaker 12: of last year and as we know, the government required
- 23:49Speaker 12: all schools to be in cell phone used during school time.
- 23:51Speaker 12: This tomb too, so the headmaster, Patrick Drum says break
- 23:55Speaker 12: times are now noisy, they're active, they're filled with sports
- 23:59Speaker 12: games again and they're really really happy. And we were
- 24:02Speaker 12: sitting there in the newsroom were saying, isn't it amazing that,
- 24:04Speaker 12: you know, the smash of a ball going through so
- 24:07Speaker 12: you know, through a window at school you'd usually go
- 24:09Speaker 12: oh no, but we're going yay because it's great having
- 24:12Speaker 12: going back to the olden days.
- 24:14Speaker 2: That's fantastic news. Neva House. The weather today, rain, heavy.

- 26:03Speaker 6: boat carrying dozens of migrants sank, in the deadliest loss
- 26:07Speaker 6: of life in the Channel this year. This has been
- 26:09Speaker 6: a busy weekend. On Saturday, eight hundred people across the Channel,

- 26:16Speaker 2: Also just from storm Boris a.
- 26:20Speaker 6: Really dreadful and continental Europe. At least seven people have died,

- 26:59Speaker 2: Way, thank you so much for that, Gavin Gray are
- 27:01Speaker 2: UK europe correspondent to go one twelve minutes away from
- 27:04Speaker 2: six Bridge. The Post Primary Teachers Association the PPTA says
- 27:09Speaker 2: the government's plan to plug the teacher shortage with unregistered
- 27:13Speaker 2: relievers will short change thousands of young students. On Friday,
- 27:18Speaker 2: the government announced a series of short term actions to
- 27:21Speaker 2: utilize relief teachers to ease the pressure on schools. The
- 27:24Speaker 2: Teaching Council will loosen eligibility criteria for limited authorities to
- 27:29Speaker 2: teach or lats to allow previously registered teachers to receive
- 27:33Speaker 2: a LAT. Chris Abercrombie is the PPTA president. He's with
- 27:37Speaker 2: us this morning. Chris, good morning, good morning, Thanks for
- 27:40Speaker 2: being with me. What's what's wrong with this?
- 27:45Speaker 14: Well, it's just as a short term, knee jerk reaction
- 27:48Speaker 14: to this issue instead of thinking about how can we
- 27:50Speaker 14: solve this issue. We've been asking the government for governments
- 27:54Speaker 14: for many years to deal with the issue. It's just
- 27:57Speaker 14: knee short term reaction.
- 28:00Speaker 2: We'll talk about that because there is a whole section
- 28:02Speaker 2: in the minister's letter about long term. But this is
- 28:04Speaker 2: short term and you're saying they're being short changed. Can
- 28:07Speaker 2: you tell us exactly what. So we'll have a relief teacher.
- 28:11Speaker 2: Normal teacher goes down sec or on a training day
- 28:14Speaker 2: or whatever, relief teacher comes in. Who is that relief teacher?
- 28:18Speaker 2: Not registered?
- 28:20Speaker 14: Yeah, so they won't be a registered teacher. That won't
- 28:23Speaker 14: one not be a qualified teacher. They will literally potentially
- 28:26Speaker 14: just be a warm body in the room.
- 28:29Speaker 2: Okay. Is that that big of a deal if the teachers,
- 28:31Speaker 2: I mean, how often are the teachers sick?
- 28:34Speaker 14: Well, we know it's the big issue at the moment.
- 28:35Speaker 14: We know the schools all around this country that are
- 28:38Speaker 14: Rosterrian students home every single day, and we know that
- 28:42Speaker 14: principles are dount and has continual use of relievers, continual
- 28:45Speaker 14: disruptions like this is having a real impact on schools
- 28:48Speaker 14: and kids enjoy them in a school.
- 28:50Speaker 2: Yeah, but you've got to have someone in front of
- 28:52Speaker 2: them in class, don't you so better a warm body
- 28:54Speaker 2: than nobody.
- 28:56Speaker 14: Well, absolutely, you've got to have somebody in it. But again,
- 28:58Speaker 14: this is a knee reaction to an issue that has
- 29:01Speaker 14: existed for years and that we have been constantly trying
- 29:04Speaker 14: to push the government to solve. One of the other
- 29:07Speaker 14: ways that you do that is pain relievers more. That
- 29:11Speaker 14: is one of the issues, and so we've we've been
- 29:13Speaker 14: constantly trying to get increases in the will never pay.
- 29:15Speaker 14: We've got some of the US clip around when there's
- 29:19Speaker 14: one one way to deal with us.
- 29:21Speaker 2: They're looking at practicing certificates, they're looking at the number
- 29:25Speaker 2: or the maximum number of half days that can be done.
- 29:27Speaker 2: There is longer term stuff there, but as a as
- 29:31Speaker 2: an immediate you know, if things are as bad as
- 29:34Speaker 2: you say they are, Chris, surely you would be celebrating
- 29:37Speaker 2: the fact that there would be more available warm bodies
- 29:40Speaker 2: to look after kids.
- 29:42Speaker 14: Well, this is this, You just nailed it. Looking after kids,
- 29:45Speaker 14: not teaching kids, not educating kids, not helping them, they're
- 29:50Speaker 14: just looking after them. And you know that's these kids
- 29:52Speaker 14: deserve more.
- 29:54Speaker 2: Yeah, but if it's I mean, how often are teachers sick?
- 29:57Speaker 14: Well, as I say, there's a huge issue with teachers.
- 30:00Speaker 14: It's called hiven and Ross's teacher's home for a student's
- 30:03Speaker 14: home because of teacher illness PLD. We've got significant criquet
- 30:07Speaker 14: human cess, the change coming up. These are all things
- 30:10Speaker 14: impacting on the ability of teachers to be in the classroom.
- 30:14Speaker 2: Yeah, but I still understand if the teachers are going
- 30:16Speaker 2: home sick or with personal development or whatever it is,
- 30:20Speaker 2: and you're having to send students home because there's no teacher,
- 30:23Speaker 2: wouldn't you prefer that there was someone there?
- 30:26Speaker 14: Wells better there's someone there. But the issue is that
- 30:29Speaker 14: these young people deserve a teacher in front of them,
- 30:32Speaker 14: not just a person. And that's that's our belief. We've
- 30:35Speaker 14: always had. That belief is that that's the best thing
- 30:37Speaker 14: for our young people is a qualified red as a
- 30:40Speaker 14: teacher in front of them. And that's what we want,
- 30:43Speaker 14: that's what our parents expect, that's what our communities expect.
- 30:47Speaker 2: All right, Chris, thank you very much for your time
- 30:48Speaker 2: this morning. Appreciate it. Chris Abercrombie PPTA president.
- 30:52Speaker 4: Ryan Bridge.
- 30:59Speaker 2: Lots to say back on Jetstar announcing they're going to
- 31:02Speaker 2: be flying out of Hamilton and Dunedin. I don't know
- 31:06Speaker 2: how many customers they're going to get based on the
- 31:10Speaker 2: tenor of the text that we're getting. Also, did you
- 31:12Speaker 2: see yesterday do we celebrate the government getting it supposedly
- 31:16Speaker 2: getting crime down in Auckland CBD twenty two percent reduction
- 31:19Speaker 2: and serious assaults eighteen percent reduction in serious assaults resulting
- 31:23Speaker 2: in injury. Alton Council sees a thirty five percent reduction
- 31:26Speaker 2: in crime. I don't think I buy it. I'm going
- 31:29Speaker 2: to wait till the real stats come out from Ginny Anderson.
- 31:35Speaker 12: Missingly agree sebar.
- 31:40Speaker 4: The news you need this morning and the in depth

- 31:51Speaker 2: be Ryan, I'd prefer that there was somebody in class
- 31:55Speaker 2: with my kid rather than having to send them home.
- 31:57Speaker 2: This is about relief teachers and whether they should be
- 32:00Speaker 2: reested or not. Also, over in the US, Overnight, jd
- 32:04Speaker 2: Vance has shared a new video alleging purporting to show
- 32:08Speaker 2: cats on the barbecue.
- 32:11Speaker 4: Yo, what is this they got on the grill?
- 32:21Speaker 2: Cat right there? Missing man?
- 32:23Speaker 4: Look like it's Homi's on a grill.
- 32:25Speaker 6: Man.
- 32:27Speaker 2: I don't know if it was a cat or a check.
- 32:28Speaker 2: And there's people are saying it's clearly checking Mike as well.
- 32:31Speaker 2: That's in the studio. Good morning, Mike, good to see you.
- 32:34Speaker 15: Evse, we're going to talk about this morning.
- 32:36Speaker 2: You haven't got away.
- 32:37Speaker 15: I know you're your Bentley downstairs?
- 32:39Speaker 2: Yes?
- 32:40Speaker 15: How long have you had that? You? Did you enjoy it?
- 32:43Speaker 2: That's not my Bentley, was it not?
- 32:46Speaker 15: There's a lot of nice don't be embarrassed about having
- 32:48Speaker 15: a lovely car, Ryan, No, No, every morning it's two tone.
- 32:51Speaker 15: It's a beautiful two tone Bentley with contrasting leather interior.
- 32:55Speaker 2: I do wonder who owns those cars downstairs? Anyway, I
- 32:58Speaker 2: assume any nice card and there must be yours. But
- 33:00Speaker 2: I'm here before you.
- 33:01Speaker 15: Would you buy a car? I read the other day.
- 33:04Speaker 15: I read the other day there was a car for
- 33:05Speaker 15: seventy six thousand dollars normally new right and ev and
- 33:09Speaker 15: they were doing a deal at forty three. So say
- 33:11Speaker 15: you say you're on say you're on the on the
- 33:14Speaker 15: fence for an EV, right, so seventy six bit expensive.
- 33:17Speaker 15: You don't want to spend seventy six. Suddenly they go,
- 33:19Speaker 15: I can do it.
- 33:20Speaker 2: No, I would would do it. You wouldn't because the
- 33:22Speaker 2: charging stations also, I don't want to hang around and
- 33:25Speaker 2: wait while it charges.
- 33:26Speaker 14: Just not.
- 33:26Speaker 15: That's and that's the point they're making. Even at those
- 33:28Speaker 15: sort of prices, they can't ship them. So the country's
- 33:31Speaker 15: full of EV's they can't sell. So we'll look at that.
- 33:32Speaker 2: This one, nice one. Mike's with you next. Thanks for
