Speaker 1 (00:01):
The issues, the interviews and the insight. Ryan Bridge on
Earli Erediship with r V Supercenter explore r V successories
and servicing more than one news talks.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
That'd be good morning, great to have your company. Just
gone six minutes after five, Trump's lifting as beef tariffs.
Will talk about that. Before six. We're in the UK
Starmans finally getting tough on illegal migrants there and Hayden
Wild is absolutely furious about this cock up at the
race in Dubai. We also speak to Top's new leader.
What separates them from a party like, oh, I don't

(00:33):
know the Greens.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
The agenda mana.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
Of seventeenth November. BBC says sorry to Trump, and he says, nah,
I'm doing you.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
We'll send them or anywhere between a billion and five
billion dollars.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
It's probably sut out to expect. So you're ready to
see all.

Speaker 4 (00:53):
I think I have to do it.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
I mean, it's have you even admitted that they she did.
BBC says, well, we're not going to pay anything. I
don't think we should agree to any money being paid
to Donald Trump.

Speaker 5 (01:06):
You know you're talking about licensed fee payers money, you're
talking about public money.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
Yes, it would not be appropriate. Rump says he is
meeting with Starma this week and he will raise it
with them. Then more protests at COP thirty.

Speaker 4 (01:16):
There are indigenous groups here from around the world, from
the Amazon itself.

Speaker 6 (01:20):
There are various different climate action.

Speaker 4 (01:22):
Groups here as well, and they're calling for different things.
Some of them are calling for oil company. The energy
company is to pay more towards reparations for damage done
as a result of climate change, but also towards the
communities to help them tackle deforestation and climate change itself.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
As hard to work out who's protesting about what. Over
there our Climate Change Minister Simon Watts, he is hitting
this week to represent New Zealand. Now to the Vatican.
Pope Leo's hosting the Hollywood elite.

Speaker 7 (01:52):
Good cinema does not exploit pain. It recognizes and explores it.
This is what all the great directors have done. Given
voice the complex, contradictory and sometimes dark feelings that dwell
in the human heart.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
Is an act of love, all right, So he likes
the arts Cape. Blanchet was there, Vigo Mortensen there.

Speaker 8 (02:10):
His Holiness's words today were a real charge not to
shy away from typical, painful stories, and he was talking
about tears that often people are unable to shed in
their everyday life.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
As well as laughter.

Speaker 9 (02:22):
This is the first time, probably the hole is that
we've talked about cinema so as a very uplifting.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
The first word on the News of the Day Early
edition with Bryan Bridge and r V SuperStor explore r
v's accessories and servicing.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
All in one News Talks at B nine after five
nine nine two. The numbers text great to have your
company on this Monday morning. Crazy how little attention we
have to pay to illegal migration in this country compared
to the rest of the world. And you don't have
to look far that. You know, everyone talks about the
tyranny of distance, but actually it's been quite great lately,
hasn't it. In the UK Starmer in labor who and

(02:59):
this is the the guy who says that Nigel Farage
is a racist for his migration policies, his anti migration policies.
He's now coming out with some pretty hard line stuff.
This is starma in the UK over the we going
to camp happen today. We'll talk to our correspondent about
it quarter to six. But basically Farage is pushing them

(03:19):
further to the right. They are going to cancel benefits
for illegal migrants, They're kicking them out, some of them.
Big changes coming. Look at America obviously with mass migration
and the mass deportations. Look at most of Europe. Look
at elbow in Australia. You know it's parties on the
left and the right that are having to do this,
which tells you that there's an actual problem, not just

(03:41):
a perception of one elbow. This is late last year,
gave officials they're more power to boot refugees out the
third countries and the human rights groups were outraged. Look
at places like Chile, they're voting for a new president
as we speak. And what's the big issue there? The
one everyone's worried about gang crime. Who do they blame

(04:02):
illegal migrants from Venezuela. So it doesn't matter where in
the world you go, except New Zealand and the South Pacific,
it would seem illegal migration is either the number one
or number two issue next to the economy, and it
wouldn't even register here, Thank you very much. Ocean bad
ten On News talks hed being now hay and wild.

(04:23):
This is where you would be wild wouldn't you if
this happened to you. So he's in the race. This
is the Dupuy Triathlon. He finished eighth. Now this is
gutting for him because he's been on a winning streak
on the world circuit. He unknownly added eight kilometers to
the cycle section. Have a listen.

Speaker 10 (04:48):
How going on.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
He was furious on social media afterwards. He was furious
to Andrew Ordison's sport on that.

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Next on your radio and online on Iheard Radio Early
Edition with Ryan Bridge and are the Supercenter explore r
V his accessories and servicing all in.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
One News Talks d B five thirteen. You're a bit
random at the weekend, but Trump thankfully has lifted the
tariffs on red meat and that will benefit us greatly.
Also Kiwi fruit of red meat. The biggest market we
send to is America, so quite important for us. A
bit random, but hey, you'll take the wins, won't you.
And we'll talk to Beef Lamb about that before six
News Talks ab Ryan Bridge. The Opportunities Party has had

(05:33):
a bit of a rebrand, starting with a new leader.

Speaker 10 (05:36):
There's just no ambitious, bold solutions out there, and now
is the time for bold action. If we've got big,
big challenges that are going to keep coming at us,
we need to keep up with the pace of change.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Kilo Wong is a thirty seven year old Auckland sustainability
consultant at KPMG. Has taken over from raf Manji as
the head of the party for next year's election. Wants
to get to pass the five percent sent threshold and
joins me this morning.

Speaker 10 (06:02):
Good morning, Good morning Ryan.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
So you're not me. Good to have you here. So
you're not top anymore? Your opportunities is that right?

Speaker 10 (06:09):
We are. We are just opportunity, the Opportunity.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
Party, opportunity. Okay, So people who say top are wrong.

Speaker 10 (06:15):
Now, well it's a good legacy, you know, for those
that are in the know. But I think the majority
of Kiwi's will will now know us there's.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Opportunity, opportunity all right, very good. Now, Citizens assemblies, tax reform,
house prices down, profit with purpose, Citizens assemblies all of these.
It's sounding very green party to me. What's different about you?

Speaker 10 (06:40):
Well, I think we there'll be lots of people, lots
of policies that those on the right, you know, national
and acts would would love as well. You know, we
are just as much about getting value for the taxpayer
dollar and you know, not having wastefle spending as we
are about looking after the environment and our communities. So
we think that it's an approach that can actually bring

(07:03):
our politics together and stop this pendulum swinging that we're
experiencing at the moment.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
You like the teals, I mean, are you trying to
say to people, are you sort of because there seems
to be more of an environmental bent to the rebrand?
Is that a fair thing to say? And are you
trying to target those people who are disenfranchised with the
Green Party who seem to be obsessed with socialism.

Speaker 10 (07:25):
I think we're not specifically targeting those people. Our vision
is a future in which the business world and our
environment are one and the same. We think that that
is the opportunity for us to actually grow the economy
and succeed long into the future. You know, it's not
just a nice thing to do. We think it's the

(07:46):
right thing to do to make housing, you know, to
make our homes more affordable through electrification. This is just
as much about saving money and resilience as it is
about you know, having a nice environment to go and
enjoy with our families and friends. Q.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
Are you just as happy to go with lux and
government as you would be a Hipkins one.

Speaker 10 (08:08):
I think that there's a lot we can bring to
both sides in terms of keeping them focused on what
matters the preferences.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
No, you know, you wouldn't be more comfortable in one
camp than the other.

Speaker 10 (08:21):
No, no, not at all. I think what we would
focus on in terms of how we would challenge them
and hold them to account might look slightly differently for
each one. So looking forward to having that conversation when
it happens.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
Now your land value tax? What rate am I paying?
How am I paying it?

Speaker 10 (08:38):
So the actual rates and things are all going to
come out next year with the full policy detail very
early next year. It will be an annual payment, so
in a similar way that you pay rates at the moment.
And we think that that is better than a capital
gains tax, because a capital gains tax doesn't really incentifize
people to get rid of property that's just sitting there idle.

(08:59):
In fact, it does the opposite that will hold.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Hold on to it longer, which is a fair point.
But if you're telling people who own property that they
are going to have to pay tax every year, so
that's part.

Speaker 10 (09:11):
Of a that's why it's part of a three pronged
tax reset. So those people will also be receiving a
citizen's income. So if you're on a middle income, you'll
receive it income which you'll probably essentially be paying back
in a land value tax and you'll be net.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
Natural what's your flat tax rate?

Speaker 10 (09:29):
All coming out with the full tax resear policy?

Speaker 2 (09:32):
All right, there's plenty of plenty of opportunity for some
more detail there.

Speaker 10 (09:36):
Looking forward to that detail next year.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
Yeah, you I appreciate your time. This on QLA one.
Who's the New Opportunities Party Leader? Five eighteen News Talk,
set B, News and.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
Views you trust to start your day, It's early EDISHIP
with Bryan Bridge and are the Supercenter explore? Are these
accessories and servicing? Fallen one News Talk SEB.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
It's pretty happy Monday. Just coming back to the Catholic
Church for a minute, not that I mean to linger here.
That was for Sunday of course, when you go to church,
but I just wanted to come back to them for
a second because they've been critical and we've had stuff
happen here in New Zealand where the churches have come
out and all of the bishops and stuff, and they
put their hats on and they come out and they
complain about the government. They've done that a little bit recently,

(10:20):
you know, with the Treaty Principal's Bill with Gaza. They
had chaining themselves to MP's offices, all this kind of stuff.
In America, it's the same. The Vatican's been very critical
of the American you know, mass deportation policy and Trump's
borders are came out yesterday and said, oh, bugger off, please,
he's not really having he's not really into it, and

(10:43):
said back the church.

Speaker 7 (10:43):
And understand that we have to reach Duro foris they
have and Rade the boss during the maybe.

Speaker 3 (10:49):
People can.

Speaker 11 (10:52):
Act the penalty is astering purps.

Speaker 5 (10:55):
How much worse it it?

Speaker 2 (10:56):
And he's right, much harder to well. The the blowback
if you tried to get into the Vatican, imagine five
one Bryan Bridge the pot kettle black. Maybe Andrew Willison
here was sport this morning. Good morning, greetings Ryan. So
the AB's are they just not one of the greats
this team?

Speaker 9 (11:15):
Are they worthy of a Grand Slam? Well not now,
but I don't know they were originally either. I mean
it's not you're not thinking nineteen seventy eight or any
of those teams that I guess, like the time among
the lead's side and.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
Five or the mccaulead sides after that.

Speaker 9 (11:28):
So yeah, they just they were just couldn't be emphatic
about I mean they what conceded the one They said
twenty five points to England the third quarter was a problem. Again, Yeah,
I just don't think that. Yeah, in the guesse, when
you look at it, the Ireland Scotland results are relatively patchy.

(11:49):
So yeah, I mean they're still in the game with
fifteen to play, but yeah, all the stuff might muddling through. Yeah,
it's it's rock under the beach towel territory for the
team in particularly four Scott Robertson.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
I I say, yeah, absolutely all right, So Ferns in England,
how's this going last time?

Speaker 9 (12:05):
Yeah, last time I lockd was four minutes to go
and it was really tired. It's about fifty four fifty
three to England, so new said, of course, looking to
take the series this morning with the second match of
the Copper Box in London, and yeah, it's just a
goodother contest there and I think, yeah, I mean creditor's
I think credit to event.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
Mccauls and jury.

Speaker 9 (12:25):
She gets them across the line here sooner with you know,
a dead rubber remaining. I think it's an outstanding effort
given the circumstances that she and others have dealt with
in recent weeks. Absolutely, now that's enough said, all that's
been happening.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
Hayden Wild, what is it?

Speaker 10 (12:44):
So?

Speaker 2 (12:44):
I've had lots of text this morning from people saying
Hayden like, there's this one Hayden Wild should be furious
with himself. It was his own mistake the lane way
or lake way. They say he was open.

Speaker 9 (12:55):
Look, I've actually I've pronted that a screed of material
here hosking light across my desk to try and explain this,
but really it just comes out. It seems like it's
shambles with the timing et cetera. End with the cop
he's basically missed. He's gone on to do another lap,
but others have also gone on to do extra running laps.
The guy who's won is like ended up in the

(13:17):
middle of the fields, but then it's gone back to
a time count, back as to where they were on
the last lap of the run. Wild's eventually finished eighth,
but Philly shambalic scenes and talk, I think because it's
you've effectively with try to think, got that splintered arrangement
where you've got the Professional tra Athletes Association, you've got
World Triathlon's iron Man, all these other different disciplines and

(13:39):
it just looks a bit shambolic.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Yeah, that's that's a fair call.

Speaker 12 (13:44):
This piecemeal.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, and it's also you missed your spot, but then
you also miss out on money. There was one it's
the dough that's the problem. Tens of thousands of dollars.

Speaker 9 (13:53):
It's not just your lining up on a Sunday for
a casual run around the park. No, it's all on
and Dubai there. So that and and then you're thinking
are the lawyers going to be involved here eventually? Is
that going to threaten the whole the whole structure of
the of the sport, because yeah, there's a lot on
the line, as you say, thousands of dollars at stake.

(14:15):
So in Wild, well, I guess Wild by name and
while by nature then and probably possibly justified his salmi.

Speaker 2 (14:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (14:24):
Absolutely, I had to get to the bottom of just
as to why on their counter or whatever they thought
they had to do that, why they didn't just nip
nip away. It was a great commentary too.

Speaker 2 (14:37):
Just what are you doing anyway? There will be some blowback.

Speaker 9 (14:41):
Yeah, we need to investigate this further and we'll do
some of the course of the day. But yeah, just yeah,
real shamboo.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Andrew Ordison was sport. Thank you. Twenty five minutes after
five News Talks be we'll look at the capital gains text.
New poll out this morning on this next the early.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Edition full show podcast on IHEARM Radio Power by News
Talks at me.

Speaker 2 (15:01):
Five twenty seven on your Monday morning. Couple of things
from this morning's poll on the capital gains tax. Basically,
we're evenly split, as many of us are in favor
of Labour's plan as are against that. It's about thirty
nine percent apiece. Results are interesting though the details of
them so more Aucklanders hate it than the rest of
the country. Forty five percent of jaffers oppose it, only

(15:21):
thirty two percent support it. Now Auckland holds the keys
to the Kingdom electorally, as Labor found out, and that's
starting defeat at the polls two years ago Aucklord lockdowns
collapsed their vote, as did the cost of living. So
if you're national, that's where you focus your anti capital
gains tax campaign. It's also interesting and the Herald Peace

(15:42):
on the poll this morning makes this point. In areas
where people are doing well, you know, where house prices
haven't caved, haven't collapsed, there's more support for it. In
areas are so less support for in areas that are
feeling poor because their house prices have fallen through the floor,
they don't like it so much. So basically you have
a squeezed middle voter telling you in Auckland, probably telling

(16:07):
you that they feel too poor to support another tax,
And so you end up with this fight between people
who like the sound of an idea and people who
feel it will threaten their chance of getting wealthier or
growing wealth. And then you've got to ask yourself, will
the tax do what it says on the label? Will
it pay for millions of extra doctor visits? You know

(16:28):
where will these doctors magically appear from? Does the party
that is offering this utopia have a good track record
with delivering on promises, particularly if they tell you how
much but not really how quite important. You could look
at this pole and you could think it's a win
for the Capital Gains because it sort of is soort of.

(16:49):
But there is plenty of fodder for an anti Capital
Gains campaign, which is no doubt being workshopped by some
ad agency in Gray Lynn for the National Party as
we speak. Ryan Bridge, twenty nine minutes after five. Marjorie
Taylor Green. She's the blonde woman with the mega hat
who has been in love with Trump for a week,

(17:09):
while we're going to re elect.

Speaker 13 (17:11):
Our favorite president, the greatest president in the United States history.

Speaker 14 (17:16):
Donald J.

Speaker 3 (17:17):
Truck.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
Yeah, well, the Lovin's over. Trump calls it whacking now.

Speaker 3 (17:19):
On Saturday, President Trump blasted his one time staunch maga
ally representative Marjorie Taylor Green, calling her Marjorie Trader Green
any true social post, one day after referring to her
as a ranting lunatic and.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
All over the Epstein Farm.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
Ryan Bridge on Early Edition with r VS Supercenter explore
r v's accessories and servicing.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
All in one news talks. It'd be pretty far away
putting sex on your Monday morning. Great to have your company.
Trump spot dropping the beef tariffs. Also someone our key.
We fruit will look at that before six o'clock. We're
in the UK with Gavin Gray because big announcement from
Labour today on migration. Basically Faraj is pulling them to
the right. On the Opportunities Party no longer. Don't call

(18:04):
them top anymore, please, it's Opportunities. They've relabeled themselves, rebranded. Jeez, Ryan,
more yearly taxes a great way to restart a party, not,
says Kirsten. Kirsten, good morning to you.

Speaker 1 (18:16):
Ryan.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
I'm probably still going to vote National, but the Opportunity's
lady sounded more articulate than Labor and the Greens put together.
She may be onto something there. And finally, John says Ryan,
good luck to them getting any votes with their annual
house tax. And the funny thing is that Gareth Morgan
openly said he owned houses and didn't even have a
cat in them some of them. And yeah, I think

(18:36):
that though the type of people who are sort of
wealthy got a couple of houses, but they want to
be taxed, you know, those ones are like sort of
self flagellation. Those guys twenty three away from six Brian
bred No reported around the country now culorm and Eden Cullum,
Good morning morning. Right, so Queenstown Lakes, the dementia support

(18:57):
might be going away there.

Speaker 13 (19:00):
Yeah, Alzheimer's otago's warning of a region wide funding shortage
which we'll see services that they supply reduced across Queenstown
and Wonica. This is unless new financial support can be secured. Look,
the group currently supports nearly five hundred families living with
dementia across Queenstown Lake's area. That includes forty seven people

(19:23):
living alone. They say their usual source of funding is
broadening its grant making focus and government funding only covers
the quarter of their services. So Alzheimer's otago is calling
on local businesses, philanthropists and the community to help them
safeguard these services into the future.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
All right, how's your weather mostly cloudy? Strong? Nor that
he's here today twenty three the high Thank thank you
very much. Callen Maclear's and christ Church clear good morning,
good morning. Now what's this superbug going around?

Speaker 15 (19:49):
Yeah, there are currently two outbreaks of this antibiotic resistant
superbug Vanka Myson resistant to enter in Cowkeyes. This is
also known as VR and that's at Christchurch Hospital at
the moment. Health New Zealand has confirmed. It's a bacterial infection.
It is a superbug, making it more difficult to treat
than other infections. News Talk saidb's aware of extra briefings

(20:13):
being given to staff. That's right up from medical teams
down to the cleaners and food handlers in relation to
this infection. There are also posters being put up, particularly
around the respiratory ward. Now Health enz's doctor Sarah Berger
says there are currently fewer than ten patients here in
Christchurch with there, but this is an outbreak link to
a larger cluster in Auckland. Infection prevention minute measures rather

(20:37):
including deep cleans of ward environments and personal protective equipment
are already in place.

Speaker 2 (20:43):
And what's the name of it again?

Speaker 15 (20:45):
Sorry, Claire Vanka mycein resistant entering Cockeye.

Speaker 2 (20:49):
Okay, it's a tongue clust to that one, isn't it.
How's your weather clear?

Speaker 15 (20:53):
Fine? Northeastly is becoming strong a bit later today at
a high of twenty six.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
Thank you Max and Wellington Max. Good morning morning. Yeah,
council staff, there's a bit of a timeline emerging about
the tip shop scandal.

Speaker 16 (21:06):
Yeah, this was our newsroom's incredible story earlier this year,
the meyrial desk that turned up at the city dump
bought by a builder, troves of very sensitive historic council
documents discovered inside, and now in the fall up from
all this, we reported that he tried to first raise
the align with council staff before going to media that
had found this thing, and only came to us when

(21:26):
he wasn't taken seriously naturally in the aftermath, the pr
spin we got from council was that's nonsense. We did
take it seriously. I suppose this is one final piece
of reporting on that story. Council correspondence we've been released
during the whole debacle, some quotes from some internal emails.

(21:46):
We consider the risk of paperwork remaining in that piece
to be low secret papers in the town hall table
draw or not. I think someone's trying to wind us up.
Clearly they did try to brush it off, and they
didn't take it very seriously. And then I believe as
the story came out, or at least we pressed them
a little harder, sent a few photos of what we
had discovered inside the desk to them face palm. One

(22:08):
manager wrote in an email to another, an incredible moment
came as well, when former mayor Dame fran Wilde called
the council very concerned, even she was brushed off and
became quite furious she wasn't passed on to someone more.
Senior Grant Thornton is currently writing a report into the
whole situation.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
Yeah, friend, wild went full Karen on the maid. This
is why won't you put me through to the chief executive.
I want to speak to the manager and he said
just be on call to her. I think twelve or servict.
How's your wing to mostly find strong wind in nineteen
the heighth nice one, Thank you, Neva. Good morning, good morning.
Now we've got a fatal hit and run in Henderson, Neva.

Speaker 14 (22:46):
Yes, now look the emergency services they recorded the intersection
of Tango Place Larnock Road. Now this happened just before
three yesterday morning, where a person was found injured on
the road. They later died at the scene and cordons
they remain in place. Police obviously still investigating this. Shane Henderson,
the local councilor, says his heart goes out to everyone

(23:07):
who's been affected. He says, look, this community be really
shaken up seeing parts of this area is still closed.
So it's very distressing. And police, you know, they're calling
for anyone who has any information to contact them. Yeah,
they're still trying to piece together what has actually happened there.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
But worry, isn't it. House The weather today cloudy.

Speaker 14 (23:24):
Periods, he odd shower mainly in the morning late evening.
Twenty three is a high and just before I go,
happy belated birthday yesterday, fellow scorpio.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
So did you have a good day today? I did
bagger all really good, to the gym, a head of sauna,
had some takeaways, got some Chinese last night.

Speaker 14 (23:44):
Oh I've never known you have takeaways.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
I love takeaway on special occasions.

Speaker 14 (23:51):
It's actually quite nice to have a birthday when not
on a workday, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
Yeah, just chill out, don't have to see you lot.
Thanks Neva, have a nice Monday at away from six
News Talk CB Bryan Bridge. Yeah, somebody says, Mandy Ryan,
it's the it's opportunity not opportunities. Now this is annoying.
Why Mandy, this is the Opportunity's party then no longer
called top, it's called well I thought it was called

(24:15):
opportunity opportunities, but it's opportunity. Why would you only have one?
Surely there's more than one to go around. Anyway, Let's
go to the UK. We're going to get to Gavin Gray,
who's our UK correspondent next. But this is their Labor
Home Secretary. Labor Home Secretary Savannah Martmoud. Now she's basically

(24:37):
heading out at asylum seekers.

Speaker 6 (24:39):
It is an issue that is dividing our country and
I see this polarization all over the country, including in
my own constituency. We have a system that is out
of control. It's unfair and it's putting huge pressure on communities.

Speaker 2 (24:52):
A bit of a change of heart from them, isn't it.
We'll talk to Gavin Gray about their big policy change
they're announcing today next fourteen to six news talk. Said
be Auckland Transport. I mean, we always hate on Auckland Transport,
don't we. All we do is just bag them and
bag them, and they are Auckland's punching bag. And today
I have something nice to say about Auckland Transport because

(25:13):
for the first time in a long time, they're doing
something which seems is actually reasonably sensible. Normally, they're just
ripping out car parks, putting down cycle lanes, and pissing
everybody off. Now they're doing a dynamic lane situation. This
is near Auckland Hospital, so for those who know Park
Road Auckland Hospital area, there are massive delays. What a

(25:34):
thirty second commute becomes a fifteen minute will deal there
during the day. So what they're gonna do is dynamic lane,
so you have two lanes going one way, one lane
going the other way, and then it will switch depending
on the time of the day. No need to take
out any car parks, no need to do anything drastic.
It'll happen pretty much immediately. It'll save everybody lots of time.

(25:55):
Good on New Auckland Transport, International correspondence with ends and
iron assurance, feace of mind for New Zealand business. So
Dinger Sex needs talk to big Evan Gray are UK
europe correspondent. Given big announcement tonight our time from the
government on migration there.

Speaker 5 (26:12):
Yeah, I reckon it'll be sort of midnightish, maybe a
little bit later. But this is the Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood.
Really I think laying down a gauntlet here, getting very
tough with her asylum immigration plans. She says illegal migration
is quote tearing the country apart, and she's preparing this
big change. What it'll mean is that people granted asylum

(26:33):
will need to wait twenty years before they can apply
to settle here permanently. Now currently it's just a couple
of years. They're taking a leaf out of the Denmark textbook. Here. Denmark,
although it's part of the EU, has managed to get
its asylum claims right down over the last few years,
and that is because they're saying to all their asylum seekers, yeah,

(26:55):
you can stay for a couple of years, but if
we declare your country safe, will immediately deport you. So
in other words, people for instance, who got there from
Syria are being told they've got to go back to
Syria because now Denmark is saying that's safe as a country.
This is something the UK is now looking to do
to review that list of safe countries frequently. And also

(27:16):
something which is very controversial in Denmark is that large
concentration of housing for asylum seekers. They can justifiably just
take somebody out of that and a victim from their
premises in order to disperse what they see as perhaps
being slight ghettos for asylum seekers. That I cannot see

(27:36):
happening in the UK. But big changes here afoot when
this speech comes out interesting.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
We'll follow that tonight and bring you news tomorrow here
on early edition. Now given, did Hitler have a micro penis?

Speaker 4 (27:47):
Ah?

Speaker 5 (27:48):
Gosh, the questions that we get asked. This is a
DNA test that's been carried out on a swab of
a sofa fabreak on which Hitler took his own life.
The bloodied swatch was taken by a colonel from the
American Army who when he arrived there was Hitler dead
on the sofa and blood on the fabric. Now at

(28:10):
the times, of course, there was no DNA testing. Now
there is, and so this swatch has been tested and
it's very interesting what it shows, this first ever DNA test.
And although I dare say the clickbait headlines do concentrate
on his what his propensity was for having very small
genitalia and possibly only one testicle, it also shows a

(28:32):
predisposition to autism, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Now they're not
saying he definitely had those things, but he had a
large propensity because of his genetics. His genes a large
propensity for them. Many are saying that people should not
be doing this, We should not be looking at Hitler's DNA,

(28:52):
and certainly people from those societies, the autism society very
vocal here Ryan saying just because we're being diagnosed with autism,
not when you know we are mass murderers and looking
for you know, it really is crazy. So it's been
very controversial.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
What about the micro penis people, what do they have?
Are they upset that?

Speaker 5 (29:10):
Aha, I haven't found any yet.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
It would own up Kevin Gray in the UK it's
ten to six. She turned from Trump on beef terraff,
so scrap them. Basically great for US red meat here
we've thrown a quarter of everything we sing to the
US two billion dollars worth of our ex sports joining
us Kate Eckland beef and leaf a beef and lamb
chair with us. Kate, good morning morning. Now has this

(29:34):
happened already has officially taken place?

Speaker 11 (29:37):
We are still trying to sort through the details on that.
I mean, it's sort of a corner saal by surprise actually,
I mean it shows a week for long time in
politics really.

Speaker 10 (29:46):
So not quite certain exactly.

Speaker 11 (29:49):
When this comes into effect.

Speaker 2 (29:51):
Does it just level the playing field, right, it's not
special treatment for us specifically, it's for everyone, So.

Speaker 11 (29:57):
It's removing additional terraffs across all beef from all countries.
So fortunately New Zealand does have really good access for beef,
so bree the tariffs. You know, we've got a really
large quota with an end quota tariff rate of less
than one percent. So as sorry as New Zealand goes,
this puts US in a very very strong position.

Speaker 2 (30:16):
How much did we lose or pay and how much
do we pay in terroists? How much business did we
lose during this periods in April.

Speaker 11 (30:25):
So in twelve months, the quotas we're looking to cost
us at about three hundred and ten million dollars off
a base of virtually nothing, So it's a significant amount
of money.

Speaker 2 (30:36):
So what do you think will happen now? Or well,
I mean, did we lose much market share in the
in the intervening months and will we get it just
get it all back now or what?

Speaker 11 (30:46):
Look, it wasn't so much about losing market share because
everyone was impacted. We were impacted more than the Australians
or the Argentine But then there were some countries like
Brazil that were facing bigger tariffs than US. But what
we did see is quite avolume of me went away
from the US into other markets. Now, the US is
a really high value market for US, so it will

(31:06):
be really interesting to see how those trade flows go,
you know, whether we see less products going into markets
like China and more back to the USA.

Speaker 2 (31:15):
Because do we get more money for it there.

Speaker 11 (31:18):
Here we do, So there is really high value market
for both beef and lamb. Now obviously we've still got
the tariffs on lamb. But yeah, great market.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
But random a cap oh.

Speaker 11 (31:31):
Look completely completely random, and I guess you know, although
we're really positive about it, we are being quite cautious
as well, because it just sort of shows that things
can change overnight.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
Someone wakes up on the wrong side of the bed
and then before you know it, it's all back on Kate.
Thank Kate from Beef and Lamb. It's eight to six
News Talk SEB the.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
News you need this morning and the in depth analysis
earlier edition with Ryan Bridge and are the Supercenter explore
r these excess resounds servicing fall than one news talks.

Speaker 2 (32:02):
He'd be five away from six News talks. He'd been
now in the last hour. I've told you everything you
need to know today, but Mike is here to do
more of it next Mike, good morning, in a.

Speaker 12 (32:11):
Greater depth and in a slightly more elevated way. It's
only you could as only see the funny thing about
the tariffs, and that's this is the big news of
the weekend. Yes, but I think it's started by the
way it's literally started. Yes, so it's gone back to
one percent or whatever it was prior to it.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
Find it.

Speaker 12 (32:29):
But the thing about it is is that I don't
know how he explains it to the American people, because
that whole bs about you know, they pay it or
whoever they are, and when you go down to the
butcher for your hamburger meat and suddenly it's more expensive
had and it's just a joke.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
That as a joke, and he's saying, you know that
the little specific carve outs, he's saying, it's all cost
of living stuff. You know, it's food. He's getting heat
about constant lives.

Speaker 12 (32:53):
Getting a lot of heat. I reckon he's in big
trouble next year, and this time next year is midterm
to midterm. Unless something drawmat it happens between now and
then he's in a pile of trouble and they'll lose
badly and then they'll turn on him and the whole.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
Thing, with the exception though of Albanezi and Karney, who's
sort of faced specific situations. But the leaders are getting
hammered by cost of living. It's very hard to survive.

Speaker 12 (33:15):
Cost of living is everywhere, isn't it, you know? For
all of the woe misery we have in this countrypri
mind you, Elbow, by the way, is claiming that what
Trump did is a result of Elbow's lobbying. Really apparently,
so yeah, well, I mean, what are you going to do?
Are you going to I'm going to ask the Prime
Minister this morning and go say hey, Elbow claims, and
he'll get Do you think he's going to go no,
it's not no, it's not easy. He'll get full credit

(33:37):
for it.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
Do you look at these leaders and think they all
look a bit dweeby?

Speaker 12 (33:41):
It's so very much so. Do you know we've got
later later on this week, we've got Malcolm TURNBULLO oh yes,
And that goes back to a time in a day
talking to Murray Olds on the program on Friday. You
go back to your Hawks and those guys proper leaders,
proper people, and I spoke like working, like working one
hundreds there, I mean for people the runs. It couldn't

(34:01):
couldn't agree more. They're all Lostrammer, good use of the
word anyway, All Rustians with us too, by the way.

Stuff You Should Know
Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
