0:15
Speaker 2: It'd be good morning. Not that new anymore? Are we?
0:18
Speaker 2: Day two? Baby? Let's go coming up this morning. If
0:22
Speaker 2: you're flying on a plane today, there's a good chance
0:24
Speaker 2: it's going to be a Boeing. It's a company that
0:27
Speaker 2: you probably trust. Why then, have they just agreed to
0:30
Speaker 2: plead guilty to a criminal fraud conspiracy charge? We asked
0:35
Speaker 2: Irene King in just a few moments also this morning,
0:38
Speaker 2: why is Julian Jenter, the alleged bully Julian Jenter, not
0:43
Speaker 2: being asked to resign from the Greens, But Darlene is
0:46
Speaker 2: are the Greens racist? We asked that question this morning too.
0:50
Speaker 2: Right now, it is seven after five the agenda Tuesday,
0:56
Speaker 2: the ninth of July. The Prime Minister is heading to
0:58
Speaker 2: the United States today for the NATO Summit and he
1:00
Speaker 2: hopes to meet with President Joe Biden and Canada's Prime
1:04
Speaker 2: Minister Justin Todeau. Biden is reportedly hoping just to wake
1:09
Speaker 2: up today during the four day trip. Luxen also plans
1:12
Speaker 2: to meet with both Republican and Democratic lawmakers, but the
1:15
Speaker 2: recalls to balance our relationship between the United States and China.
1:20
Speaker 2: Former US Ambassador Tim Grossa says it's important we keep
1:23
Speaker 2: both on sign.
1:24
Speaker 3: If the two autos part company on crucial issues, we
1:28
Speaker 3: may be caused to make a choice, but we should
1:30
Speaker 3: deley that as far as we possibly can.
1:34
Speaker 2: Nine million dollars of government funding is set to be
1:36
Speaker 2: cut over the next three years from a program to
1:39
Speaker 2: three D map up to eighty five percent of New
1:42
Speaker 2: Zealand's coastline. Only now up to forty percent of the
1:46
Speaker 2: coastline will be covered, which presumably is the most populated
1:50
Speaker 2: forty percent of the country. I don't know. Otaga University
1:53
Speaker 2: Center of Sustainability directed doctor Caroline Orguston says the maps
1:57
Speaker 2: show how communities might be impacted by severe weather.
2:01
Speaker 4: It helps us to think about where the worst impact
2:04
Speaker 4: might be coming from a changing climate, where we can
2:06
Speaker 4: safely build.
2:09
Speaker 2: How do you keep your employees happy? Is it money?
2:12
Speaker 2: Apparently not. It turns out the solution is quite simple.
2:16
Speaker 2: A US survey of office workers found just over half
2:19
Speaker 2: ranked views as the number one perk that they wanted. Yes,
2:24
Speaker 2: Views like out the window, what can you see? I'm
2:27
Speaker 2: looking at three very average, two ugly men, one of
2:32
Speaker 2: them in glasses, not very well kempt. I'm not a
2:36
Speaker 2: happy employee. AUCME Business School lecturer Emily van Es says
2:41
Speaker 2: employers would be wise to take note of the results.
2:44
Speaker 5: Many companies are looking for creative, innate perks, but I
2:48
Speaker 5: think the most basic ones, like bullshit to the outdoor
2:51
Speaker 5: environment is fundamental to us as human beings.
2:55
Speaker 2: And finally, this morning, protesters against mass tourism have taken
2:59
Speaker 2: aim at visitors in Barthlona with water guns. Yeah this,
3:04
Speaker 2: this is true. Thousands took to the streets in Spain's
3:07
Speaker 2: most visited city, stopping at hotels and restaurants to confront tourists.
3:12
Speaker 2: Some restaurant diners were forced to move tables when protesters
3:15
Speaker 2: started soaking them with water guns. Barcelona's mayor has said
3:19
Speaker 2: that by twenty twenty eight he will stop renewing the
3:21
Speaker 2: thousands of tourist licenses that permit landlords to rent out
3:24
Speaker 2: accommodation to foreign visitors.
3:28
Speaker 6: Ryan Bridge new for twenty twenty four on early edition
3:32
Speaker 6: with Smith City, New Zealand's furniture beds at a playing
3:35
Speaker 6: store news dog zidby Bathlona.
3:39
Speaker 2: You're going to get wet and Barthlona. Apparently. Where in
3:42
Speaker 2: New Zealand do you think is Dropkick Central? The reason
3:46
Speaker 2: I asked you that question. You know, the place where
3:48
Speaker 2: you probably wouldn't want to get out of the car.
3:51
Speaker 2: You know there's always a big long queue at the
3:53
Speaker 2: BK and the coffee is not that good. Drop Kick
3:56
Speaker 2: Central in New Zealand. The reason I ask is there
3:58
Speaker 2: is a headline in the Waikato Times today dropkicks drive
4:02
Speaker 2: doctor from city. It's actually not a funny story and
4:07
Speaker 2: digest but it's not a funny story. There's a doctor
4:10
Speaker 2: and his family who've been driven from their central Hamilton
4:13
Speaker 2: home by drug use, domestic violence, child abuse, and other
4:17
Speaker 2: anti social behavior that he says makes them embarrassed for
4:20
Speaker 2: the city that he grew up in. This is a guy,
4:23
Speaker 2: a doctor, trying to do good in a city where
4:27
Speaker 2: he was raised. He says he chose to return to
4:30
Speaker 2: Hamilton to pursue his career at Whitecatz Hospital and has
4:33
Speaker 2: fallen victim to the same menacing behavior of emergency housing
4:37
Speaker 2: tenants that forced a company to send their workers home.
4:41
Speaker 2: This is aon insurance. I didn't know about this. He's
4:44
Speaker 2: a beautiful, brand new building in Thackray Street in Hamilton
4:49
Speaker 2: where the workers were working from. It's a beautiful new building.
4:52
Speaker 2: They're all now working from home. They literally cannot work
4:55
Speaker 2: in this office space because the behavior is so appalling.
5:00
Speaker 2: His wife, the story continues, who stays at home to
5:03
Speaker 2: look after their children, said anti social behavior can happen
5:06
Speaker 2: at any time of the day, and it's turned her
5:08
Speaker 2: into a version of herself that she doesn't like. This
5:11
Speaker 2: is the sad part of the story. She said. She
5:14
Speaker 2: used to be sympathetic towards those who need help, but
5:17
Speaker 2: for the latest, after the latest experience, it's driven her
5:20
Speaker 2: to the point where you see someone that might be
5:24
Speaker 2: looking like they'll do something antisocial, and you start judging
5:27
Speaker 2: people even though you don't mean to. I mean, how
5:30
Speaker 2: to hear it too terrible as that there's a well
5:32
Speaker 2: meaning people. The couple provided The Times with a video
5:36
Speaker 2: of three adults blasting music while smoking a substance through
5:40
Speaker 2: a large bonghi while an older child looked after young
5:44
Speaker 2: children playing among the group. Another time, the wife described
5:48
Speaker 2: a baby being used as a shield by a woman
5:52
Speaker 2: who was having an argument with her partner on the street.
5:55
Speaker 2: Welcome to Paradise. What do we do about this? I
5:59
Speaker 2: know it's one of those questions that we can never
6:01
Speaker 2: really answer. And if anyone says wrap around services, don't
6:06
Speaker 2: do that. But if you do have anything you what
6:10
Speaker 2: you would like to say about this, well, perhaps you're
6:12
Speaker 2: from this area, do text me. Nine two ninety two
6:15
Speaker 2: has just gone twelve minutes after five up next Boeing
6:19
Speaker 2: and this court case in the US.
6:23
Speaker 6: The first word on the News of the Day early
6:26
Speaker 6: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's furniture
6:30
Speaker 6: beds and a playing store News talk zaid.
6:32
Speaker 2: Be five point fourteen. Boeing have have pleaded I should
6:37
Speaker 2: say guilty to criminal fraud after the company violated a
6:40
Speaker 2: deal that was meant to reform it following two fatal
6:44
Speaker 2: seven three seven Max crashes that killed three hundred and
6:47
Speaker 2: forty six passengers in twenty eighteen and twenty nineteen. You'll
6:51
Speaker 2: remember those. The company will have to pay nearly four
6:54
Speaker 2: hundred million New Zealand dollars. The families of the victims
6:58
Speaker 2: have criticized the decision and calling it a sweetheart deal
7:02
Speaker 2: that would allow Boeing to avoid responsibility for the deaths.
7:06
Speaker 2: Mark Lindquist is the lawyer for some of those families.
7:09
Speaker 7: FO one hundred and forty six people died in those
7:12
Speaker 7: two crashes.
7:13
Speaker 2: Therefore, a pleader manslaughter would be more fitted. Joining me
7:19
Speaker 2: this morning is the aviation commentator Iren king Iron. Good morning.
7:23
Speaker 2: What is your reaction to this?
7:27
Speaker 8: Look, it's a very substantial Oh fine, I think it's
7:34
Speaker 8: right at the actual maximum. But really, you know, you
7:39
Speaker 8: can find these companies. But at the end of the day,
7:41
Speaker 8: what we're more interested in is does it promote or
7:47
Speaker 8: does it improve the performance in aviation safety of the company.
7:52
Speaker 8: And I don't think it goes anywhere near that.
7:55
Speaker 2: Well, it clearly doesn't, does it, Because this follows the
7:58
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one judge which where they agreed to again
8:02
Speaker 2: in lieu of going to court, pay a fine, pay
8:05
Speaker 2: a penalty, and then they were supposed to have this
8:09
Speaker 2: you know, monitoring for three years. They've now breached that
8:12
Speaker 2: monitoring and here we are with another fine. I mean,
8:14
Speaker 2: why aren't they going after these guys in court?
8:18
Speaker 8: Well, I think one of the problems is the monitoring
8:22
Speaker 8: is the failure, and the monitoring is the FAA is
8:28
Speaker 8: not actually bowing Now I'm not excusing Boeing because I think,
8:32
Speaker 8: you know, there are some big performance issues in Boeing.
8:36
Speaker 8: But you know, ten the federal administration ESU Goers for
8:42
Speaker 8: itself because the are the ones that failed with the monitoring.
8:46
Speaker 8: And the answer very clearly is no. So the fine
8:51
Speaker 8: process in the United States is very significantly different from here. Now,
8:57
Speaker 8: if we put it into the New Zealand corn text,
9:02
Speaker 8: the management of this company would be in jail. Now,
9:06
Speaker 8: there's no question about that under our health and safety legislation.
9:11
Speaker 8: But you know, the FAA in the federal system is
9:15
Speaker 8: very different. And this is about a failure of a
9:19
Speaker 8: federal system, and so you know, it's a bit pointless.
9:24
Speaker 2: Really, I do we not inherit the safety features of
9:28
Speaker 2: aircraft that are developed in the United States? You know,
9:32
Speaker 2: I should we be worried about, right, you know?
9:35
Speaker 8: Absolutely? And the question should we be worried about the
9:39
Speaker 8: performance of Going? I think, look, there's some there's some
9:43
Speaker 8: big question marks, but it comes back to the leadership
9:48
Speaker 8: and who they put in there as the chief executive
9:51
Speaker 8: and how they lead and how they think about safety. Now,
9:56
Speaker 8: as I say, in New Zealand, here this thing was
10:00
Speaker 8: located here on the one hand, we have acc so
10:03
Speaker 8: you can't sue them. But on the other hand, we
10:05
Speaker 8: have health and safety, and these people would be subject
10:09
Speaker 8: to an enormous fine and they would end up in jail.
10:13
Speaker 8: There is no question about that.
10:14
Speaker 2: Irene King, thank you very much for your time this morning,
10:16
Speaker 2: aviation commentator Irene Kings saying that Boeing were they to
10:20
Speaker 2: be practicing here in the way that they were in
10:21
Speaker 2: the United States, the directors might be in jail. It's
10:25
Speaker 2: just eighteen minutes after five o'clock. Very quickly. I wanted
10:30
Speaker 2: to bring up France because we spoke about them so
10:32
Speaker 2: much yesterday, and we spoke about them so much yesterday
10:38
Speaker 2: and what we thought might happen didn't happen, right, So
10:41
Speaker 2: what has happened is that France has just birthed one
10:44
Speaker 2: of the ugliest political babies, I think, intellectoral history. We
10:48
Speaker 2: were expecting a far right winging little brat, weren't we
10:53
Speaker 2: from France? That is not what we got. What we
10:55
Speaker 2: got was a party that was only formed a month ago.
10:58
Speaker 2: When they went to the polls, party didn't even exist.
11:02
Speaker 2: It's made up of get this, the far left France
11:06
Speaker 2: Unbowed Party, the Socialist Party, the Green Ecologist Party, the
11:10
Speaker 2: French Communist Party, the Center Left Place Public Party and
11:16
Speaker 2: quote other small parties. Who is the leader? Nobody actually knows.
11:20
Speaker 2: We'll have more on that later in the show too.
11:22
Speaker 2: Right now nineteen after five.
11:26
Speaker 6: Get ahead of the headlines. Ryan Bridge new for twenty
11:30
Speaker 6: twenty four on early edition with Smith City, New Zealand's
11:34
Speaker 6: furniture Beds and a playing store.
11:36
Speaker 2: News Talk zid BE twenty one after five now. Changes
11:39
Speaker 2: to New Zealand's medicinal cannabis export rules have been approved
11:42
Speaker 2: by Cabinet to help growers, manufacturers and exporters. Exports will
11:46
Speaker 2: now only have to meet the standards of the importing
11:49
Speaker 2: jurisdiction rather than New Zealand's standards. It will also streamline
11:54
Speaker 2: the licensing process for growers and update testing and laboratory requirements.
11:58
Speaker 2: Sally King is the execus Director of the New Zealand's
12:01
Speaker 2: Medical Cannabis Council and is with me this morning. Sally,
12:03
Speaker 2: good morning, Sorry I did that thing again, Sally, good morning.
12:11
Speaker 3: Hello Marina, Ryan, how are.
12:14
Speaker 2: You very well? Thank you? Tell me why have we
12:16
Speaker 2: been requiring companies thus far to meet New Zealand standards
12:22
Speaker 2: rather than just the country that we're exporting to.
12:26
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, it's one of those examples of over regulation
12:30
Speaker 3: that is being untangled. It's a very good thing. I
12:34
Speaker 3: think it was an unintended consequence of the speed at
12:37
Speaker 3: which the regulations were written back in twenty eighteen twenty nineteen, right,
12:44
Speaker 3: And the effect of that was that, you know, a
12:47
Speaker 3: whole new industry and sector with regulations written within one year,
12:50
Speaker 3: there were always going to be a few snaffoos.
12:53
Speaker 2: Right, Okay, so it was a snaffoo. We've fixed it.
12:55
Speaker 2: That's great. How much we do we actually export and
12:59
Speaker 2: where do we export it to?
13:00
Speaker 3: Mainly maybe to Australia and we don't. We don't export
13:04
Speaker 3: much medicinal cannabis at all at the moment. It's been
13:06
Speaker 3: far too difficult. There's probably been less than ten consignments
13:11
Speaker 3: sent so far. But with the change, it's rarely going
13:16
Speaker 3: to open up the opportunity for New Zealand cultivators and manufacturers.
13:20
Speaker 2: Where do you think we will target and are we
13:24
Speaker 2: going to target whoever has the loosest standards?
13:27
Speaker 8: No?
13:28
Speaker 3: No, not necessarily. New Zealand has a reputation because of
13:31
Speaker 3: it's really rigid or restrictive regulation for having really good
13:37
Speaker 3: quality product here, so we're on the right we're on
13:41
Speaker 3: the right standard already. Where we will be first targeting
13:46
Speaker 3: is probably Australia, but equally Europe. We have had some
13:51
Speaker 3: confinements CENTERP into Germany and into Europe as things shift there,
13:55
Speaker 3: and we'll see a lot more of that.
13:57
Speaker 2: Just finally, can you paint us a picture, Sally, of
13:59
Speaker 2: what we're actually exporting? Is it a cannabis leaf, you know,
14:04
Speaker 2: put in a box that someone can get high from.
14:07
Speaker 2: What exactly is it?
14:09
Speaker 3: Well, up until up until last week, the only thing
14:12
Speaker 3: you could export in this system was cannabis leaf, dried leaf,
14:18
Speaker 3: and that was for further processing elsewhere. These regulations are
14:23
Speaker 3: real game changes because they allow for some extracts, some
14:27
Speaker 3: initial extracts, to also be exported. In all cases, therefore,
14:32
Speaker 3: what we call cannabis ingredients, they're going to be further
14:34
Speaker 3: processed or manufactured, or alternatively, we can manufacture a complete
14:39
Speaker 3: propre you know, GMP reading material. So the biggest opportunity
14:46
Speaker 3: will be though with the ingredients.
14:50
Speaker 2: Sally, thank you very much for your time. Best of
14:52
Speaker 2: luck with that. It sounds like snapoo, and I'm glad
14:54
Speaker 2: it's been fixed. That's Sally King with us this morning,
14:57
Speaker 2: the executive director of the New Zealand Medical Cannabis Council.
15:03
Speaker 2: The time is now twenty five minutes after five on ZB.
15:06
Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about the Greens and Darlene Tanna.
15:09
Speaker 6: Next, separating the fact from the fiction. Kid's Filly Edition
15:14
Speaker 6: with Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds and Appliant Store.
15:18
Speaker 4: News Talk ZBB.
15:19
Speaker 2: You're listening to News Talk ZB. It's twenty seven after five. Question,
15:24
Speaker 2: how do the Greens save money on marketing photo shoot
15:27
Speaker 2: costs for the next election? Answer? Just use their candidates
15:30
Speaker 2: mug shots. It's just a joke, people, Okay, don't get
15:35
Speaker 2: too freaked out. They're not all criminals. But there were
15:38
Speaker 2: a few criminally absurd things that happened during yesterday's press
15:41
Speaker 2: conference about Darlene Taner. Number one Chloe, Well, she got
15:46
Speaker 2: a bit grumpy, didn't she, And you could see it
15:48
Speaker 2: on her face when a reporter asked repeatedly why the
15:51
Speaker 2: Greens are asking Tana to resign and shunning her in
15:55
Speaker 2: public when old mate Julian Genta is still in the
15:58
Speaker 2: party despite multiple agre of bullying allegations. The implication of
16:02
Speaker 2: the question was that the Greens must be a bit
16:04
Speaker 2: racist towards Tana because she is what hennah moldy, She's moldy.
16:08
Speaker 2: And Chloe was outraged by this. You could see it
16:10
Speaker 2: in her face, you could hear it in her answer.
16:12
Speaker 2: She rejected it, she refuted it. It was reductive, all
16:15
Speaker 2: that kind of stuff Tana has done x y Z
16:19
Speaker 2: Julianne did ABC. There are differences the irony of the
16:23
Speaker 2: party that's perhaps best known for calling everyone else in
16:26
Speaker 2: the room racist till they're blue in the face being
16:29
Speaker 2: accused themselves of racism over not one in Tana, but
16:33
Speaker 2: two in Ketty Ketty and three and two day if
16:36
Speaker 2: you go that far back, was almost too much for
16:39
Speaker 2: the new co leader to take. The second thing, it
16:41
Speaker 2: was interesting from that pressy yesterday. The second thing to
16:44
Speaker 2: note here is how little we actually know about what
16:47
Speaker 2: has gone on and how much Tanna was involved. The
16:50
Speaker 2: Greens won't say what was in the report. The report
16:53
Speaker 2: is not public. Tanna rejects the report's findings. She says
16:56
Speaker 2: it doesn't substantiate any claims of migrant exploitation, let alone
17:00
Speaker 2: who alleged involvement in them. So there is a lot
17:03
Speaker 2: here that we still don't know, answers we don't have,
17:08
Speaker 2: but a lesson for Chloe in political absurdity, expediency, no doubt,
17:13
Speaker 2: and how to save money with a mug shot.
17:15
Speaker 6: Ryan Bridge.
17:17
Speaker 2: Right, we're coming back in just a few moments. We
17:20
Speaker 2: have news, sport and weather, and we're also going to
17:23
Speaker 2: be talking about to our Australia correspondent this morning out
17:27
Speaker 2: of Melbourne. Big developments there overnight. We'll keep you up
17:31
Speaker 2: to date with them.
17:32
Speaker 9: Back in a second Science.
17:44
Speaker 6: On your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early Edition with
17:48
Speaker 6: Ryan Bridge and Smith City New Zealand's Furniture Beds and
17:52
Speaker 6: a playing store.
17:53
Speaker 2: News Talk zaid be now, good morning New Zealand. You're
18:05
Speaker 2: listening to news talks. He'd be with me, Ryan Bridget
18:07
Speaker 2: is twenty four minutes away from six o'clock. Great to
18:10
Speaker 2: have you with me this morning. Not a great place
18:13
Speaker 2: to be, apparently in Thackeray's street. This is in Hamilton.
18:17
Speaker 2: There's a story in the why Cutter Times this morning.
18:20
Speaker 2: Dropkicks drive doctor from city. It's a heartbreaking story. The
18:24
Speaker 2: headline sounds almost like it's going to be funny, but
18:26
Speaker 2: it's not.
18:28
Speaker 5: So.
18:28
Speaker 2: This is a doctor who grew up in Hamilton. He
18:30
Speaker 2: wanted to do the right thing, return home and pursue
18:33
Speaker 2: his career at Whitecut's a hospital. He said that the
18:35
Speaker 2: anti social behavior from some social housing tenants living in
18:40
Speaker 2: the area is so bad that he is literally being
18:43
Speaker 2: driven from the city that he grew up in. He's
18:45
Speaker 2: not the only one either. There's an insurance company that
18:49
Speaker 2: is around this area called Aon. They're workers. They've got
18:53
Speaker 2: this beautiful brand new office. Workers aren't in there. They're
18:56
Speaker 2: working from home. Too dangerous. How dumb is that? What
18:59
Speaker 2: do we do about? Thank you for your text this
19:01
Speaker 2: morning nineteen ninety two, Good morning Ryan. As regards the
19:05
Speaker 2: antisocial behavior which has been allowed to flourish under labor,
19:09
Speaker 2: what now is required is a visible police presence and
19:13
Speaker 2: a police force who enforce the law. No more talking,
19:17
Speaker 2: says this listener. I agree with that. I do think
19:20
Speaker 2: it has it reached a point now where you can't
19:23
Speaker 2: just you almost can't just police your way out of it.
19:25
Speaker 2: It is so endemic in some parts of New Zealand,
19:29
Speaker 2: this so called anti social behavior. I honestly don't know
19:33
Speaker 2: how you fix it other than a multi pronged What
19:37
Speaker 2: else do they say? Wrap around approach twenty two minutes
19:41
Speaker 2: away from six o'clock and we're going around the country.
19:44
Speaker 2: We begin in Dunedin with Culum Cullen. Good morning to you.
19:47
Speaker 2: The organizer of the Exotic Pet Expo is pushing back
19:52
Speaker 2: on accusations of false advertising.
19:55
Speaker 7: Yeah morning, Ryan, also criticism about animal welfare standards at
19:59
Speaker 7: this show. Over the weekend, the SPCA has confirmed its
20:02
Speaker 7: investigating the show. Many have taken to social media to
20:06
Speaker 7: criticize the event for its mishandling of the animals that
20:10
Speaker 7: were on display. Some were reduced to tears, they say.
20:13
Speaker 7: Organizer Amelia Seals denies all of the claims. She says
20:16
Speaker 7: the animals were safely kept in temporary housing and manned
20:19
Speaker 7: by volunteers. As far as the false advertising claims go,
20:24
Speaker 7: she says, look, yes, some stallholders pulled out due to
20:26
Speaker 7: COVID others didn't return for Sunday show out of fear
20:30
Speaker 7: of the online backlash. She says some young kids were
20:33
Speaker 7: handling animals roughly, but they were corrected and she plans
20:36
Speaker 7: to stage the event again.
20:37
Speaker 2: Goodness me so the Exotic Expo. Colum what was her
20:40
Speaker 2: name again? Amelia Seals was the organizer? Okay? Indedans weather today.
20:46
Speaker 7: Colum clearing to find today, light winds and ten the
20:50
Speaker 7: high fantastic.
20:51
Speaker 2: It's got to christ Judge. Emily ansels with us. Emily,
20:53
Speaker 2: good morning to you. You've got news on a struggling
20:55
Speaker 2: dairy manufacturer.
20:56
Speaker 10: Yeah, good morning, Ryan. The struggling dairy manufacturer, as you say,
21:00
Speaker 10: will soon vote whether to accept a crucial one hundred
21:03
Speaker 10: and thirty million dollar loan to ensure its survival. Sinlay
21:07
Speaker 10: Milk shareholders will make the call on Thursday on the
21:10
Speaker 10: lifeline offer from a major Chinese shareholder, four days before
21:15
Speaker 10: its debt deadline. If the vote fails, our third largest
21:19
Speaker 10: dairy processor will likely collapse. Major shareholder A two Milk,
21:23
Speaker 10: will be influential in deciding the outcome, but hasn't indicated
21:27
Speaker 10: yet which way it will go. If the loan gets
21:29
Speaker 10: the green light, it would only be Sinley's first financial
21:33
Speaker 10: hurdle to clear as well, with significant loan repayments due
21:36
Speaker 10: over the next year and the weather fine apart from
21:39
Speaker 10: morning cloud and frost's northeasties developing this afternoon with a
21:42
Speaker 10: high of eleven degrees.
21:44
Speaker 2: Thank you very much, Emily. Max Toll is in Wellington
21:46
Speaker 2: this morning. Max opposition to a rugby club's lick license. Yeah,
21:51
Speaker 2: that's right.
21:51
Speaker 11: It was a very tragic case last year where johnson
21:54
Speaker 11: of rugby club player Jason Tutama had thus far too
21:58
Speaker 11: many drinks at the club behind the wheel four times
22:01
Speaker 11: over the limits, it drove into the city and hit
22:03
Speaker 11: and killed a young woman, Cass McGuire badly hurt another woman.
22:08
Speaker 11: He had been at the club that Saturday, getting a
22:10
Speaker 11: blazer in a special presentation for guys who had played
22:13
Speaker 11: twenty five games. The club chair says she saw him there,
22:18
Speaker 11: saw he was having a good time, but denies seeing
22:21
Speaker 11: him drunk, although she accepts that he probably very likely
22:24
Speaker 11: did get drunk at the club that day. So the
22:27
Speaker 11: licensing committee is hearing the club's application to renew its license,
22:32
Speaker 11: is hearing from people who argue the club essentially should
22:36
Speaker 11: have done more to stop him leaving and getting behind
22:39
Speaker 11: the wheel of his car. The chief licensing inspector opposes
22:43
Speaker 11: the application. McGuire's family opposes at the club says it
22:47
Speaker 11: needs the revenue or it'll have to close. The hearing continues,
22:51
Speaker 11: All right, Max, how's the weather today? I should be
22:53
Speaker 11: mostly fine? Thirteen the high central.
22:55
Speaker 2: We go Toni elected minor and out Auckland Studio. Good morning,
22:59
Speaker 2: good morning. Now trackless trams are going to be trild
23:02
Speaker 2: in Auckland. Are they not just buses?
23:04
Speaker 12: Don't you love it? Well, yeah, you're kind of right.
23:06
Speaker 12: They are just what does had to Google? I thought
23:09
Speaker 12: what will does look like? So, yes, there's trackless trams.
23:13
Speaker 12: They're going to be trialed before the end of the year.
23:15
Speaker 12: Now the technology, it's being created by Chinese rail company
23:19
Speaker 12: and it uses magnetic nails, so they're driven on the
23:23
Speaker 12: if you can kind of think that these nails, magnetic
23:26
Speaker 12: nails are in the existing roads instead of the overhead lines.
23:29
Speaker 12: But you're right, they just kind of like look like buses.
23:32
Speaker 12: But this system would be a third of the cost
23:36
Speaker 12: of the surface light rail and it can be built
23:38
Speaker 12: in just weeks.
23:39
Speaker 1: Wow.
23:40
Speaker 12: Now this Chinese company is so excited about it that
23:43
Speaker 12: they are going to ship the unit over at its
23:46
Speaker 12: own expense, so we.
23:48
Speaker 2: Don't need to favor. When does that happen? Never?
23:51
Speaker 9: Never?
23:52
Speaker 2: So does does it touch the road? Yes, like acraft.
23:56
Speaker 12: Yes, it's like a hovercraft and it's kind of got
23:58
Speaker 12: those little weed bumps you know.
24:00
Speaker 3: On the road.
24:00
Speaker 12: Yeah, And apparently through Google Google. Where would I be
24:05
Speaker 12: Without Google?
24:05
Speaker 2: Would all be done? That's what we've done.
24:08
Speaker 12: And it's about seventy kilometers an hour, so I think
24:11
Speaker 12: that's quite fast. The ones in the news room are going,
24:14
Speaker 12: oh flipp an heg would be there on all day.
24:16
Speaker 12: It needs to go about one hundred cave but I
24:18
Speaker 12: think seventy k one hundred and fifty people.
24:20
Speaker 2: Wow, I mean that's good for Auckland.
24:21
Speaker 12: Anyway, isn't it exactly?
24:23
Speaker 2: Fascinating? So that starts when five and it's.
24:25
Speaker 12: Going to be by the end of the year. I
24:27
Speaker 12: mean they reckon a round about October November and they'll
24:30
Speaker 12: do it on the Northern Busway. And this is on
24:32
Speaker 12: Sundays when the buses don't run, you know, just in
24:33
Speaker 12: case something goes wrong.
24:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, which it will.
24:36
Speaker 12: So we won't go on there.
24:37
Speaker 6: Then we won't.
24:38
Speaker 2: Hey, yesterday we got in trouble. I got in trouble
24:40
Speaker 2: because we missed the weather.
24:42
Speaker 12: Oh the weather. That's the most important part. That's why
24:44
Speaker 12: Auckland has listened to this slot. Oh wow, Well, I
24:48
Speaker 12: can tell you Auckland mainly fine areas of fog. This
24:51
Speaker 12: morning it's when to rap that warm sixteenth the high.
24:54
Speaker 2: Though yeah, ye, thank you very much. Great to see you.
24:56
Speaker 2: As always. It is seventeen away from Sex. You're listening
24:59
Speaker 2: to news talk said coming up next we are going
25:02
Speaker 2: live to Australia. But also why is Joe Biden calling
25:05
Speaker 2: TV shows in the early morning?
25:07
Speaker 6: Will tell you International correspondence with ends in eye insurance
25:12
Speaker 6: peace of mind for New Zealand business.
25:14
Speaker 2: Just gone fourteen to six. Now the Northern Territory Police Commissioner,
25:18
Speaker 2: this is an Australia has declared another curfew in Alice Springs.
25:21
Speaker 2: Our Australia correspondent as Donna deminishes with US Live this morning. Donna,
25:25
Speaker 2: what's the latest here?
25:27
Speaker 13: Yes, well, Michael Murphy did declare this snap curfew from
25:30
Speaker 13: ten pm to six am. This is for three days.
25:34
Speaker 13: This is because there's been a string of violent incidents.
25:37
Speaker 13: Now the curfew applies to adults and children this time around.
25:41
Speaker 13: Do we know that in March there was a youth
25:43
Speaker 13: curfew that lasted a couple of weeks. I do believe
25:46
Speaker 13: if I remember correctly. Now the Northern Territory Policeman, Ister
25:49
Speaker 13: Brent Potter says it's been a horror seventy two hours
25:53
Speaker 13: in the Red Center in the Northern Territory. For instance,
25:55
Speaker 13: an alleged assault of four off duty police by about
25:59
Speaker 13: twenty people. A police officer was run over allegedly over
26:03
Speaker 13: outside sorry, outside a bottle shop. And we also heard
26:07
Speaker 13: that a forty two year old woman was allegedly stabbed
26:10
Speaker 13: Sunday lunchtime. So we know now that these three days,
26:15
Speaker 13: this three day curfew has been imposed. We've heard from
26:18
Speaker 13: the Chief Minister also Eva Fowler, and she says she's
26:22
Speaker 13: saying that organizations need to step up, do more, and
26:26
Speaker 13: she's calling for more resources. So this doesn't keep happening?
26:30
Speaker 2: Quite distressing, Yeah it is, and as you say, the
26:33
Speaker 2: incidents keep happening and so do the curfews. Let's go
26:35
Speaker 2: to Sydney. We're a council. Well, what's going on with
26:39
Speaker 2: this artwork featuring am I right in saying Jesus and
26:42
Speaker 2: Looney Tunes?
26:44
Speaker 13: Oh, this is quite bizarre. But there's been quite an
26:47
Speaker 13: amount of outrage over this work of art. So the
26:50
Speaker 13: Sydney Local Council has said that it's taken off the
26:55
Speaker 13: art gallery wall. But there was this very vitriolic and
27:00
Speaker 13: highly critical online protest about this artwork. So what does
27:04
Speaker 13: it depict? Well, they're saying that it mocks the Christian religion,
27:08
Speaker 13: and even the Liverpool Mayor said that he wanted to
27:11
Speaker 13: take it down. Effectively, the art depicted Jesus Christ carrying
27:16
Speaker 13: the cross. His face and others around him were overlaid
27:19
Speaker 13: with Looney Tunes characters. I think Jesus was depicted as goofy,
27:24
Speaker 13: so it was described by some as playful. On the
27:26
Speaker 13: other hand, the online anger was intense and the criticism
27:30
Speaker 13: was quite scathing. The artist says, look, he does like
27:33
Speaker 13: to stir a bit of a reaction, but the level
27:35
Speaker 13: of vitriol and sheer volume of online abuse was frightening.
27:40
Speaker 9: He said.
27:41
Speaker 13: He called the threats a not at all Christian. But
27:44
Speaker 13: after about nearly eight weeks then the artwork was taken
27:47
Speaker 13: down over the weekend.
27:48
Speaker 2: All right, so it has been taken down Jesus. Maybe
27:51
Speaker 2: Jesus didn't have a sense of humor. Thank you very
27:54
Speaker 2: much for that. That is our Australia correspondent Dona Demayo
27:57
Speaker 2: with us this morning. It's just gone twelve away.
28:00
Speaker 6: From six Bryan Bridge.
28:02
Speaker 2: The Green Party reviewing to Darlene Tana has been released
28:07
Speaker 2: and not publicly, so that was a little teas for you,
28:10
Speaker 2: wasn't it here? You all worth thinking that I was
28:13
Speaker 2: going to give you all the dirty details, but I
28:16
Speaker 2: don't have any because the report is still behind closed doors.
28:21
Speaker 2: Tana has resigned as a member of the party and
28:23
Speaker 2: the Greens leaders have asked her to resign as an MP.
28:26
Speaker 2: But what are the chances of that actually happening? Joining
28:29
Speaker 2: me Now's political commentator and former ministerial advisor for the
28:32
Speaker 2: National Party Bridget Morton, Bridget good morning, Good morning. What
28:36
Speaker 2: happens here? So she's quit the party, that's okay. The
28:40
Speaker 2: Greens are done with her, but she's not planning to
28:43
Speaker 2: stick around.
28:44
Speaker 4: Yeah, Ultimately she has all the cards in her hands,
28:48
Speaker 4: unless you know, the Greens aside to do a backslip
28:50
Speaker 4: on the walker jumping legislation and actually invoke that legislation.
28:55
Speaker 4: She can just sit there basically as long as she wants.
28:57
Speaker 2: And this is because the Greens, I mean, they spent
28:59
Speaker 2: about the good part of twenty years opposing walker jumping,
29:02
Speaker 2: So for them to go and walker jump her would
29:05
Speaker 2: be it would be pretty It would be pretty rough politically,
29:08
Speaker 2: wouldn't it.
29:10
Speaker 8: Yeah.
29:10
Speaker 4: I mean they did ultimately vote to get it in
29:12
Speaker 4: term for it to become legislation under the Labor Greens
29:17
Speaker 4: New Zealand First government because it was a bottom line
29:19
Speaker 4: to New Zealand First, so they are responsible for it
29:21
Speaker 4: being on the books at least in part. But ultimately
29:24
Speaker 4: they've had chances to use it previously. Obviously last year
29:27
Speaker 4: was Elizabeth Kitty Kitty, and they chose not to because
29:30
Speaker 4: their Green membership is very anti using the walker jumping legislation,
29:35
Speaker 4: which is.
29:35
Speaker 2: Weird because they don't why they do now have constituency MPs,
29:39
Speaker 2: but it seems an obvious one to use on a
29:42
Speaker 2: list MP, doesn't it.
29:44
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, particularly a list MP who hasn't been in
29:47
Speaker 4: Parliament for half of the time that they've been elected
29:49
Speaker 4: for doesn't represent a constituency and there's no evidence that
29:52
Speaker 4: she is undertaking any consipuency work. So ultimately, what is
29:56
Speaker 4: she being paid for, particularly when the Greens could have
29:59
Speaker 4: someone in there that is advocating on Green's issues.
30:02
Speaker 2: Why are the Green's obsessed with that, with that particular
30:06
Speaker 2: rocker jumping belt. Why do they not like I mean,
30:08
Speaker 2: I know you mentioned that that they had to swallow
30:10
Speaker 2: the dead rat as James Jaw put it and pass it,
30:13
Speaker 2: but what exactly don't they like about it.
30:16
Speaker 4: They believe it's undemocratic and then allows for parties to
30:20
Speaker 4: have a hold over the MP. So it wouldn't allow
30:23
Speaker 4: an MP perhaps to cross the floor. It would maybe
30:25
Speaker 4: make parties much more of a dictatorship. You know, you
30:28
Speaker 4: think about how the Greens operate operates. They've got co leadership,
30:31
Speaker 4: they're very much and taking votes and feedback from their membership.
30:35
Speaker 4: As opposed to say, more hierarchical parties like Labor National
30:38
Speaker 4: or you seel Avers.
30:40
Speaker 2: It's almost a vote against or against the faith and
30:45
Speaker 2: their leadership, the leadership with their party. Because if their
30:47
Speaker 2: party was you know, was following a good process and
30:52
Speaker 2: adjust process, et cetera, then you wouldn't really care what
30:55
Speaker 2: they did because you know, at least natural some form
30:58
Speaker 2: of natural justice would have happened or occurred.
31:01
Speaker 4: Yeah, but in this secumstance, Darling Tanna had said absolutely
31:05
Speaker 4: natural justice hasn't occurred. She doesn't agree with the findings
31:08
Speaker 4: of the report all the way. That's Wallbrook characterized them,
31:11
Speaker 4: as she says in the press conference yesterday, So she
31:14
Speaker 4: would say that natural justice hasn't been followed. Therefore she
31:16
Speaker 4: has been pushed out.
31:18
Speaker 2: Just before we go what is natural justice? It's one
31:22
Speaker 2: of those Is it just one of those buzzwords now
31:24
Speaker 2: that we all say, you know, I haven't had my
31:25
Speaker 2: natural justice? What is that like? Does that go into
31:28
Speaker 2: court and sitting in front of a jury or what
31:30
Speaker 2: do they mean?
31:32
Speaker 4: I think it's often used as a bit of a buzzword,
31:35
Speaker 4: but it does mean that people have the ability to
31:37
Speaker 4: be have their views represented, to have the beliefs, have
31:40
Speaker 4: their say, have that play out, have the rules known
31:43
Speaker 4: to everyone, Have a clear set of rules so that
31:46
Speaker 4: everyone knows what they're playing by. So you can see
31:48
Speaker 4: in the circumstance, Darlinge may argue that she hasn't had
31:51
Speaker 4: natural justice because perhaps she hadn't any control over that
31:54
Speaker 4: investigation or understanding what was happening in that investigation.
31:58
Speaker 2: Which thanks very much for your time this morning, Really
32:00
Speaker 2: appreciate it. Bridget Morton with US political commentator and former
