Speaker 2 (00:06):
Welcome to Tim Wilson, The Maximum Institute, Jack Tame, host
of Q and A and Saturday Mornings on ZB. Good evening, guys,
good evening, Good evening. What do we think, Tim, what
do we think about the cats?
Speaker 3 (00:20):
Well you probably didn't hear it, but Jack was cracking
up because Cecilia wouldn't take your bait that you dangled
Ryan shooting feral cats. Now, there may or may not
be a place called Young's e Gun Shop on Dominion
Road that does Kalashnikov mockups fully automatic BB guns. Now,
I'm not suggesting that that's the thing to do. I
(00:42):
think she's trying to solve a problem that she thinks
she can solve. It's the micro chipping, so go for it.
But the problem is the numbers. Micro chippings forty to
eighty bucks desexing fifteen bucks for a male. I know
where I'd go.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Yeah, well, a good point, Jack, What are you.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Poor?
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Poor Cilia Wade Brown, I mean as well came on
an interview.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
It was the casualness of which she said you like
shooting cats? So I was like, on this issue, I
can see the way your brain's working, and I love it. Look,
I am speaking from the perspective of someone who's made
some extremely ill advised comments about about cats and the
(01:25):
protection of birds and various measures that might help in
that front on morning television in the past, and as
a result has received about ten thousand leaders of complaint
and various death threats and things in the male. So
I'm going to be very careful with my language, but
I am not a big fan of cats. I think
composory marcroshipping is a really good idea. I think you're right.
I think we could go one step further and have
(01:47):
desexing as well. I'd be personally supportive of that. And
I think in the right setting in rural communities when
it comes to feral cats not domestic cats, that yes,
sometimes those competitions they have to try and reduce the
feral cat numbers are a very good idea.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yeah, because oh my goodness, see the air will cloud,
the air will cloud with texts. Jack tame is for
shooting cats. Look out, guys.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
I just think, like, because we don't have we've got birds, basically,
we don't have much in the way of, you know,
interesting things to look at in the bush. But we've
got birds and we've got cats killing them, so we
need to kill the cats.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
Quite simple, Well, I think, I mean, I think that
the theory would be that if if we do have
more micro chipping and we have more desexing, which again
I support, then hopefully we would have fewer feral cats
in the future and they would present less of a
risk to birds and preps. We wouldn't have to hunt
them as well.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
It is thirteen away from six. Coming up next, Tim
Wilson and Jack Tame on the ferals at the Northern Club.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Eleven to six. Tim Wilson, the Maximum Institute and Jack
Tame host a Q and A and Saturday mornings on
ZB Guys, that's took before we get to the Northern
Club and what the judge and the senior lawyer did
or didn't say to Winston Peter's there the easter trading thing. Obviously,
the conscience vote has gone nowhere, so easter trading won't
be happening anytime soon. For me, Tom, I mean, this
(03:17):
is not a religious thing or anything. It's just it's
nice for people to have a day after we need
to be shopping every day, and you can do it
online anyway.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Yeah, that's that's true. But I guess I was thinking
about those people and obviously for me and my family
it's a sacred day. But for those who don't, you
know who who don't see it that way, and the
right not to work on Good Friday, that sort of
seemed a fairness issue, which you would think would appeal
to you know, kiwis love fairness. So I was quite
(03:48):
I was quite surprised by the sort of vehemence of
the response in Parliament on that conscience vote today. I
don't know how much conscience was being operated. Maybe there's
a bit of secret whipping going on.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
It looks like it, Jack, What do you think, Yeah,
I mean, I'm a little surprised actually, because you know,
it just I feel like this issue comes up every
single year and has done for my entire lifetime. Like
it feels like that for decades now, every Easter we
have the inevitable newspaper editorials or talk back radio conversations
(04:22):
about why don't we allow trading. We like you say,
you can go and shop. You can go and buy
stuff on the internet, So why should you be able
to buy stuff on the internet but you can't go
down to your local garden center and pick up a
thing or two. So look, I was a little surprised
to see the vote today. I think the only way
this debate would be stopped is if they voted to
support easter trading. And you know, maybe we're not there
(04:42):
now obviously, but yeah, you know, I just I think
it's inevitable that come next year, once again we're going
to be saying, oh why and you're allowed to go
down to the shops.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yeah that retail and Z said they pretty much exactly that.
I said, when's the next time you think you're going
to raise this issue? And she goes, well, next year,
let's talk about what happened ovan Northern. First of all, tim,
have you been to the Northern Club? What's what's it
like now?
Speaker 6 (05:07):
And you give us as it's pretty swish and it's yeah,
it's not quite you know, the hallways of the powerful,
murmuring their assertions and cravats.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
But it is. It's it's swish, it's quiet, and it's orderly.
So what what I mean, what we're hearing about sounds
like some kind of you know, orientation week brought to
the Northern Club with judges screaming out at you know,
the Deputy prime Minister. And you think if you flipped it,
like if there was a judge was found to be
(05:40):
screaming at, say, you know, the Deputy prime minister who
was a greenee. I think this was a bit of
politics going on here as well, where the elite, a
group of members of the elite don't like the politics
of a particular party and they're playing it out. But
but that's not leadership. That's not what leaders do. And
you were saying, you know, oh, they should boot them out. Nah,
(06:01):
I think actually they should be made to do the
dishes at the Northern Club for two weeks or working
with a lot of Indians.
Speaker 5 (06:08):
Isn't it amazing that it doesn't matter what. First of all,
I'm glad to see that I'm the only one of
the three of us never to have been to the
Northern Club.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
So I spoke, well, you're the one who's saying you've
never been to the Northern.
Speaker 5 (06:21):
I find it just amazing. It doesn't matter. It doesn't
matter how professionally successful you are, It doesn't matter how
fancy your job title is. All of that stuff you
can still come across at a Christmas party, like what
was going on at this judge's party that things got
so loose? Now, you know, I think it should be
pointed out, is it, David Galler?
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Is it?
Speaker 5 (06:43):
He's so strenuously denying he made any kind of racist comment,
But you would have to say, from the details that
aren't being denied, it has been reported. Yeah, it's just
totally totally inappropriate behavior, Like you say, definitely as an
era of politics about it, we should have total separation
when it comes to the judiciary and politicians. So I
hope that politicians don't go too far in terms of
(07:07):
the consequences that they are demanding of this situation. But yeah,
I think hopefully we think this reflects really really poorly
on those a lot.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Yeah, it does. I think hopefully we can just leave
it there as a sort of a messy end to
the year and a bit of bit too much booze
at a Christmas party. Guys, thanks so much for being
on with me. Six minutes away from six that's Jack
Tame and Tim Wilson on zb
