fixed for Friday, the twelfth of December. Former Glory Vale
leader Howard Temple has been denied home detention and will
instead spend more than two years in prison. The eighty
five year old has been jailed for twenty six months
after admitting a series of indecent offenses against six girls
(00:26):
and young women at the isolated Christian community spanning two decades.
Herald reporter and Elisk says one victim told her she
didn't specifically want Temple imprisoned, only that he beheld fully
to account for his actions. She was shocked that the
judge handed that sentence down, but at the same time
she was really pleased that that indicated the judge really
(00:47):
saw and heard the victims. Labour's critical of a minimum
wage hype, suggesting it doesn't go far enough. The government's
announced the rate will increase to twenty three dollars and
ninety five cents, a boost of two percent. It makes
good on a National and NZ First coalition promise for
moderate minimum wage increases workplace relations. Minister Brook van Velden
(01:09):
says it strikes a balance, but Labour's Workplace spokesperson Jantinetti
says she's very disappointed. Two percent just doesn't cut it
at this point. When you've got basic stables like food
going up at the prices that's going and energy going up,
people just can't afford to live here. Strong backlash from

twenty fifty is undergoing urgency hearings in the House today.

charges of possession for supply and obstructing police. Lawyers for
(02:28):
the man accused of killing conservative activist Charlie Kirk are
trying to restrict media access to his trial. Twenty two
year old Titer Robinson has made his first in court
appearance in the US state of Utah. A lawyer representing
Robinson told District Court Judge Tony Graff media interest is
very high and reporters present have already crossed a line
(02:50):
in court.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
It's our understanding potentially some audio from council table was heard.
There has also been some filming of computers in mid
materials at council's desk.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Robinson has yet to enter a plea on charges including
aggravated murder to sport. The New Zealand have thrashed the
West Indies by nine wickets in a second cricket Test
