Speaker 1 (00:01):
The issues, the interviews and the inside. Ryan Bridge new
for twenty twenty four on the early edition with Smith City,
New Zealand's furniture beds at a player store.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
News Dogs, it'd me.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Good morning at six after five. Great to have your
company this Friday morning. Coming up before six Nathan guys
and China for us on the two billion dollar Trump
terror threat. Also, we're live to Doublin ahead of the
game this week in Vincent mcavanis in Wisconsin. Joe Biden
is about to speak in response to the election of
Donald Trump. Will bring it the latest on that and
is TikTok spying on you? For China? The agenda Schizer,
(00:42):
It's fride out the eighth of November, and Germany's government
has collapsed. Chancellor Olaf Schultz has fired a key minister
too often.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
Federal Minister Lindsner has blocked laws and an irrelevant manner
too often. He has engaged in petty party political tactics
too often. He's broken my trust. He even unilaterally withdrew
from the budget agreement after we had already agreed on it.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
So the center right opposition, that's Angela Merkle's party. You
remember her. They want to vote of no confidence done
right now. Schultz has said no, I'm going to lead
a minority government until early next year we will have
the vote. Trump tariffs could cost us almost two billion
bucks a year.
Speaker 5 (01:22):
To me, the most beautiful word in the dictionary is tariff,
and it's my favorite word.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
We explort eight point eight billion dollars worth of goods
to the US every year. Since Partners says, at twenty
percent boom, that's one point seven billion dollars ripped from
our back pockets. At five twenty five, I'll tell you
about the kiwi whose job it is to stop this.
And before six, as I said Nathan Guy and China,
the former Minister for Primary Industries to the UK, the
Bank of England has cut interest rates by twenty five
(01:49):
basis points.
Speaker 6 (01:50):
It's the welcome news for millions of homeowners and businesses.
D's interest rates have been cut today to four point
seventy five percent. I do, though, recognize that for many
people who took out mortgages a few years ago, they're
still looking at higher rates.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeah. Also they're looking, thank you very much, Chancellor of
Rachel Reevs also looking at higher taxes through their employers
for US Federal Reserve is expected to drop its rates
by the same amounts later today. Overnight. Scientists are sounding
the alarm as it looks like global warming temperatures are
set to exceed one point five degrees above pre industrial
times for the first time ever. The first ten months
(02:29):
of this year have been so hot that the only
thing that could see the record not met would be
unusually low temperatures for the remainder of the year. S
eight after five.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
News and Views you Trust to start your day. It's
Burly edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's
furniture Beds and a flying store.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
News talk said, be everyone has been going on about
the one point five degrees, so I've just had a
look this morning. What will actually change once we hit
one point five Apparently seventy to ninety percent of coral
recewall dime at two degrees, they're all gone. Ninety nine
percent of them are gone. There'll be more waves, There'll
be droughts, unheard of storms will become the norm. Greenland
(03:09):
and Antarctica will melt even more than they are now.
That's at one point five degrees, which is not a
tipping point. They reckon. So everyone talks about it like, well,
the world will end once we get there. Not true.
For every tenth of a degree that the planet warms,
it gets worse. But the same happens in reverse, for
every tenth degree it gets better. So I guess it's
(03:29):
like when you burn your hand. You know, you put
some hot water on your hand and it burns, The
skin grows back, doesn't it It heals itself. That can happen.
Of course, what are we going to do down here
with our pretty little point whatever percent it is that
we emit? Not much. It's the big polluters who need
to front up on that. Nine minutes after five Karmla Harris,
(03:50):
what is she going to do now? And did you
hear that speech yesterday? The concession speech? Here's a exerpt.
Speaker 7 (03:56):
Can you see the stars? I know many people feel
like we are entering a dark time, but for the
benefit of us all I hope that is not the case.
But here's the thing, America, if it is, let us
fill the sky with the light of a brilliant, brilliant
(04:20):
billion of stars.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Brian Bridge.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Yeah, so she's going to be out of a job
in January, and judging by that, speech. I don't think
they'll pick her up on the speaking circuit. What is
she going to do? She lost the primary in twenty twenty,
She's lost the president in twenty twenty four. Rumors she
could run for governor, which would be a bit of
a step down for her. Gavin Newsom's the current governor.
There's talk that he might move to leader of the
(04:46):
opposition and then she might shimmey into his place. But
it would be a step down for her. It mean
she might go and do something else completely separate to this.
Who knows. Eleven minutes after five, Joe Biden about to
speak from Washington, d C. We'll bring you the later
on that shortly starts the.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
News you need this morning and the in depth analysis
early edition with Ryan Bridge and swith City, New Zealand's furniture,
beds and a playing store. News Talk said bed love to.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Hear from you this morning. Thirteen after five, nine ninety
two is the number to text overnight. Todd McClay, the
Minister Trades, released a statement. He says we've signed a
couple of MOUs with Chinese companies that should bring in
three hundred and forty million dollars boost trade by three
hundred and forty million dollars over the next couple of years.
He's at an importer's expo up in Shanghai, which is
(05:42):
where Nathan Guyers will speak to him before six fierce competition.
I'm told for our red meat in particular up there,
one of the deals is with a Chinese company for
our deer industry. They reckon, We're going to sell more there,
sell more velvet GMP Deary has done a deal with
Sino Life. Gmpdrey Enterday's strategic partnership with Sign and Life
to introduce new milk powder products to China and drive
(06:05):
mutual growth through de reinnovation. So you'll take that three
hundred and forty million dollar increase in New Zealand China
trade expected Bryan Bridge. We got the DC yesterday on
the Treaty's Principal's bill. The second principle says the Crown
will respect and protect the rights that Hapu and Ewe
Mahrdy had under the Treaty of Waitangi. However, this is
(06:25):
the crucial bit that seem more got in there. If
those rights differ from the rights of everybody else in
New Zealand. They only apply where there's an agreed treaty settlement.
Duncan Web's the Labor Justice spokesperson. Big protest plans next
planned next week is with US Live this morning. Good morning,
good morning, How are you good? Thank you? Are you
going to join those protests?
Speaker 8 (06:47):
I might get out there on the front lawn, but
you do get a set of Parliament. But I can
understand why those protests are happening. People are pretty angry
about this. It's a rewriting, right, just it's going backwards.
And you can't have government signed something in eighteen forty
and then decided one hundred and eighty years later later
that it's not what they wanted and have another crack.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
But isn't that what the courts have been doing?
Speaker 8 (07:09):
Absolutely not. I mean what you've got with the courts,
And you know, I've heard about the courts making stuff
up and so on, but that's not the case. You've
got two texts of the Treaty of Waitangi, one in English,
one in Marii. They're both valid and there's a fair
distance between them, so the courts have to navigate a
path between them, and so in doing that they've read
them both and said, look, the guts of it is,
(07:31):
or if they would say, in their fancy language, the
principles of the treaty are, and that's where you get
the principleship.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Is that a job for the courts? Is that a
job for the courts to interpret our founding document?
Speaker 8 (07:43):
Look, if you have a contract you're right on the
back of an envelope to sell a business, there's going
to be a lot of gaps in it. And when
you get at the court to argue about it, they're
going to fill the gaps for you. This was a
contract between two nations signed on a single piece of
paper undred and eighty years ago. There are gaps, there
are things that aren't clear. It's absolutely the job of
(08:06):
the courts to patch it up and make sure that
what the parties intended is what it rolls out and
delivers over time.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Is it a big deal that this has been brought forward, Well,
it's been brought.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Forward a week.
Speaker 8 (08:20):
It's not. Is it a big deal, It's just it's
just an a court. We've had the American election, so
the front page of you know, your lead stories and
everyone's front page is the American.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
You think it's they've done it, they've done it delivered.
Speaker 8 (08:34):
Yeah, it's comes management.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Heptins reckons. It is not a big deal. It's just normal,
normal parliamentary process and you wouldn't expect it to have
been told there was a change of date anyway.
Speaker 8 (08:44):
Well, who knows, but the reason for the change of
date was probably it was probably to keep it on
the load down question. We've got a heck we've got
the heck quary now coming on the same day.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
My question for you is you're the gist of the argument.
Is this so divisive and the same from the departi
Maliti and the Greens so divisive that you shouldn't go
near it? Do you think co governance was divisive?
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Well?
Speaker 8 (09:11):
CO governance clearly raised the hackles of a section of society.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
And we're starting to And it didn't stop you doing
it though, did it. I mean, so, it's not a
reason not to do something just because people might be
upset by it. I guess.
Speaker 8 (09:27):
Okay, I would accept that, But if it's both divisive
and fundamentally wrong and depriving Mary of something that they
have actually been promised, So it's not just that it's
it's people. Some people don't like it. It's that it's
fundamentally and constitutionally right. This isn't just some surface irritation.
(09:47):
This is going to the very heart of how we
formed our nation and changing the foundation stones. And that's
why it's both divisive and deeply wrong.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Dugan, thank you very much for your time this morning.
Appreciate you coming on the show. That's Dunk and Web
is Justice spokesperson eighteen after five.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
The first word on the News of the Day early
edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's furniture
beds at a play at store.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
News Talk said, be.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Five twenty on news Talk said, be going Vincent mcavinie
in Wisconsin just after the news at five point thirty.
Just to let you know, Joe Biden is expected to
speak any moment. Will bring you his comments, whatever they are.
Live reaction to Donald Trump being elected the forty seventh
President of the United States. Interestingly, he is apparently poised
to dole out the cash to Ukraine before he gets
(10:35):
out of the White House. There's four point three billion
dollars in unspent aid and they reckon he is going
to just basically open the floodgates to Zelenski before he
leaves in January twenty after five. Ryan Bridge, All Black
tacking on island at Dublin nine ten am tomorrow morning,
our time, which is perfect. You've just woken up, have
a cup of coffee, get your toast on and Elliot
(10:56):
Smith will be with your news talks, said B's voice
of Rugby, and he's with us now, Elliot, good morning,
get it.
Speaker 9 (11:02):
Ryan.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Couldn't have timed it better, really could you?
Speaker 9 (11:05):
Absolutely look Friday night here in Dublin. It's a match
that has been highly anticipated since last year's Rugby World
Cup quarter final the All Blacks won. There was a
bit of a tinned off from some of the All
Blacks to some of the Irish players, so the scene
has set more than a year on from that quarter
final for another spectacular meeting between these two sides. Plenty
(11:25):
of atmosphere around Dublin over the course of the week,
sense of real occasion and a rear Friday night game
as you see it and Saturday morning New Zealand times,
so all the ingredients are right there in the mixed,
Ryan for a pretty special game of rugby.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
And throw into that mix Johnny Sexton and his autobiography
that must be rking things.
Speaker 9 (11:44):
Up absolutely and look the comments that Rico Youanni gave
back to him. I spoke to Rico Yuwani a couple
of days ago. He was pretty keen not to fan
the flames any further around than that. But it just
adds to the backdrop, doesn't of this match and the
fact that these two teams very easily matched across the park,
(12:05):
but they don't seem to get on that well across it.
New Zealander's love going to Ireland and vice versa, but
when it comes to rugby over the last few years
that relationship has been fairly strained, and there's some big
personalities in both teams and it's spilled over and yeah,
those books. That comment from the books has certainly been
mentioned plenty over the course of the week. The All
(12:28):
Blacks themselves very careful, as I said, not to fan
the flames any further. But the backdrop's already there from
what has been said over the last few months.
Speaker 8 (12:36):
Ahead of this match.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
We're sort of up against it here, aren't we.
Speaker 9 (12:42):
Well Island of the world, number one, very very good,
well drilled team haven't changed too much since last year's
will cut. There's a sense that they really want to
avenge that defeat. All all the starters tomorrow nights here
in Dublin played a role in that game last year.
We're in that twenty so they haven't brought in to
(13:02):
many you faces. Is a sense that they want to
show Bill Blacks that they were good enough to win
last year and avenge that defeat, and the All Blacks
you know, they're still building. We saw last week at
tense win at Twickingham, come from behind victory. It certainly
wasn't perfect. There was a lot of errors. There were
a lot of erarors in that performance, a lot of
discipline issues that need to be fixed. But they'll raise
(13:24):
another level. I'm sure tomorrow night's try and get this
victory against the Garish, who admittedly go on his favorites
to the match given they are the world number one.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Elliott, thank you very much for that, Elliot Smith. News
Talks thereb Rugby commentator, the voice of rugby. You can
tune in tomorrow from nine am. Game starts at nineteen
on z b iHeartRadio and gold Sport.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Bryan Bridge twenty.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Three minutes after five year on News Talks cb SO
the guy you don't want in Washington right now representing
your country is Kevin Rudd. He's made some comments about
Trump in the past, and now he has to cozy
up to him and try and be as mate. One
of the tweets that he's apparently scrubbed from the internet
called him the most destructive president in history. And this
(14:08):
is Donald Trump talking about those comments a couple of
years ago.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
I heard he was a little bit nasty.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
You were a destructive president, a treator to the West.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
He won't be there longer.
Speaker 8 (14:18):
That's the case. I don't know much about him.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Now.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
What's interesting is, you know, old Elbows come to his defense,
but he was elbow criticizing Trump in twenty seventeen. Have
a listen to this congratulations to President Trump. Hang on,
let's go back a little further to twenty seventeen.
Speaker 10 (14:35):
President Trump has run a campaign based on change, and
he's made it clear he's going to do things differently,
so we shouldn't be surprised.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
No, that wasn't quite twenty seventeen, was it. Basically though,
the problem was for Elbows. He said very similar things
about Donald Trump being a destructive president for the United
States and now here. He is trying to cozy out,
So you want to be careful about what you say
about Donald Trump in case he comes back to haunt you.
It is twenty five minutes after five News Talks VB, the.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Early edition full the show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by
Newstalks FB.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
You're on News TALKSB twenty seven after five. Rosemary Banks
remember that name. She now has one of the most
important jobs for New Zealand, a potential two billion dollar job.
She's our woman in DC. She's the ambassador to the
United States. Her mission get us an exemption to Trump's tariffs.
The scale of the problem massive. Early estimates at twenty percent.
(15:34):
It could cost US one point seven billion dollars every year.
Our total exports currently eight point eight billion, so that's huge.
It can be done. The Aussie's got an exemption on
steel and aluminium in twenty eighteen under Trump. Is she
up to the job. I'm told yes, if anyone can
do it, Rosemary Banks is the person that you want
(15:55):
up there. I'm told she's got excellent contacts with the
Republican Party and she is working the phones and working
them hard. She was asked to stay on by Winston
Peters back in May in anticipation that Trump might get
in smart move. She's the same ambassador, was the same
ambassador in charge when we nearly got an FTA through
during Trump's last term. Of course, it's not all on her. Winston, Todd, McLay,
(16:17):
lux and they will all play their parts. But the
ground game is on Rosemary. And we may have some
advantage here in that we do export food, and food
is something Trump probably doesn't want to make more expensive.
Then there's the uncertainty of whether Trump will actually make
good on his campaign big talk. Rosemary's not waiting around
for that uncertainty or for certainty. On the uncertainty, I
(16:38):
should say they have a plan, and by god, it
better be a good one. We like to hate on diplomats,
don't we. Oh, they just go to nice dinners and
drink wine and schmooze. Well, it is time to crack
out our best pino, use the contacts and make the
deals happen. The weight of our export nation is on
your shoulders, Rosemary. Best of luck and Bridge. Twenty eight
(17:01):
minutes after five, you're on news talks hereb Here's Joe
Biden speaking from the White House.
Speaker 5 (17:06):
Yesterday I spoke with President like Trump to congratulate him
on his victory, and I assured him I direct my
entire administration to work with his team to ensure a
peaceful and orderly transition.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
That's what the American people deserve. Coming up, TikTok, is
it spying on you for China? Canada's raised some concerns overnight.
I'll tell you about those. It is twenty nine after five.
You're on news Talk CIB.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Get ahead of the headlines. Ryan Bridge, you for twenty
twenty four on early edition with Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture.
It's Er Planet Store News Talks.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
It'd be.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Good Morning, New Zealand. It is twenty four after six
er on News Talks. It'd be great to have your
company this Friday morning. Vincent mcavenie's with us live from Wisconsin.
Shortly and Nathan Guy, former primary Industries minister, is in China.
What are they saying about Trump's election. We'll get the
lowdown from him just before six o'clock. Right now, Biden
has spoken from the White House. He's a longer clip
(18:30):
than you got in the news.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
We accept the choice the country, mad I've said many times.
You can't love your country only when you win. You
can't love your neighbor only when you agree something I
hope we can do. No matter who you voted for,
(18:52):
you see each other not as adversaries, but as fellow Americans.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
And Bridge brig That would make a nice change. Come
on prop in Dunedin for us this morning as we
go to our reporters around the country. Calum Otaga University's
warning of an online scam featuring an endochronologist.
Speaker 11 (19:10):
Yeah, morning, Ryan, This is Professor Sir Jim Mann's likeness
which has been used in this online advertisement encouraging people
with type two diabetes to stop taking a medication called
mett Foreman. This is a deep fake video. It's been
posted to a Facebook page and there's.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Real concerns about it.
Speaker 11 (19:29):
It uses footage of the professor grit's created to look
and sound just like a one news clip. Professor Mann
says he feels like his identity has been stolen. He
says it looks very genuine, but he has never said
any of the things in the video before.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
How's your weather today?
Speaker 11 (19:46):
Cloudy, occasional rain, snormily strong for a time today, high
of twenty all right.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Good to know, Calum, thank you for that, Claire Sue.
I mean, presumably if you're taking medication for diabetes, you
wouldn't stop taking it unless your doctor told you not to.
That would be the advice. Clear is in Christ judge clear.
Speaking of doctors, a few people needed them after that
Halls of Residence incident. What's happening with the kitchen there?
Speaker 12 (20:10):
Did they ever need the doctors? So look, a review
of the kitchen processes at the University of Canterbury Halls
of Residence has been promised. Now this is after hundreds
of students fell.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Earlier in the week.
Speaker 12 (20:22):
It's because they ate this chicken dinner at the halls
on Sunday night. Now tests are set to confirm if
heating and cooling of shredded chicken was the cause of
this gastro outbreak affecting hundreds. That's certainly what New Zealand
Food Safety believes happened. That's their working theory at the moment.
UNI Lodge which manages University Hall and the item apartments,
(20:42):
so they're reviewing every aspect of food operations. They say
improvements will be implemented to ensure all meals meet their
safety and quality standards. The good news as most or
almost all of the affected students have fully recovered.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
That is the good news, clear. Thank you. How's the
weather a nice warm one.
Speaker 12 (21:00):
Here in christ Church today some high club will increase
a bit later northerly strong this afternoon at the High
twenty five brilliant.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Thank you Mexis and Wellington mechs. An interesting comeback for
a Courtney Place bar. Yeah, you could call it iconic,
you could call it infamous.
Speaker 13 (21:15):
This is estab or Establishment bar which was historically for
seventeen years right in the heart of our entertainment district
Courtney Place, until it closed after losing its liquor license
in twenty twenty one. I think it closed the first
weekend of twenty two. Popular with students, relatively cheap, it
was an interesting spot. The Wellington District Licensing Committee at
(21:35):
one point labeling it the highest risk premises in the city.
Operator Mike Drummond says he is now opening Establishment two
point zero in the same location. He's excited to try
to revitalize Courtney Place. He hopes to open by Christmas.
Interesting timing again, when a police is so frequently trying
to stop new businesses getting a liquor license along Courtney Place,
(21:58):
which itself really battling to sustain itself.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Yeah, so why did you close the first one? Because
it was it lost its license? Right, Okay, clearly I
wasn't listening. Maybe I didn't say it. I'm not sure.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Good.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
How's your weather.
Speaker 13 (22:13):
Mostly cloudy, some stronger northerly seventeen Hey, brilliant.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 14 (22:18):

partner to go and get chocolates. Oh wow, I've got
three chocolates, so I'll get three questions? How old are you?

The truth for a chocolate fish?
Speaker 14 (23:10):

I'm going home table we met, and then I'm going
to Tabor early a late lunch with alcohol today to celebrate. Hey,

you've got cans on. Got some lovely messages for you
this morning. Hi, Nithera, it's clean here.
Speaker 16 (23:40):
I'm a bit confused about this because I just assumed
that you didn't age and didn't have birthdays. I've known
you for quite a long time now, and I've never
seen you age at all. So yeah, is this just
some kind of shame to get presents? What's going on?
Speaker 8 (23:55):
Sorry?
Speaker 17 (23:55):
Who Niba?
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Neiba?

Sixty three, still looking good. Happy birthday, Nether, Happy birthday,
Parking buddy, you've handled the depths and discoveries of B
two with a plot.
Speaker 10 (24:22):
Greetings Neve, all is hair, just wishing you a happy birthday.
Know that you'll be in the traditions of Z. B.
Bourton's X number of years old and champagne flutes will
be out, but hopefully any baking law making any stale mups,
all the best.
Speaker 18 (24:39):
The happy birthday, my friend. Absolutely love getting to work
with you at four am Monday through Friday. It's a
real special thing to see your smiley face each morning.
And I hope you have a cracking birthday because you're
a cracking person.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
That all seven of them.
Speaker 14 (24:58):
Who was the last one?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
I don't know? Oh, thank you. So it's my fault
for giving them unlimited time in a recording booth that
went far too long. I love it. How's the weather,
Happy birthday?
Speaker 14 (25:12):
Well, cloudy periods, It's a mixed bag morning for possible
showers developing around mid day, could be heavy, but everybody,
it's going to be warm, warm, and wet. Twenty three
degrees is the high.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Nothing like being warm and wet neither. Thank you and
happy birthday for tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
International correspondence with ends in eye insurance, Peace of mind
for New Zealand business.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
It is fourteen away from six year old news talk,
said b Vincent mcavney as a UK your own correspondent.
Excuse me, he's with us from Wisconsin today though following
the election. Vincent, great to have you on the program.
We've just heard from President Biden, did he say anything
out of the ordinary.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 19 (25:53):
President Biden was addressing for the first time since the
election in the Rose Garden of the White House. He
praised Kama Harris, saying that she had run a good campaign,
that she was someone of character, and that he thought
that she had shown that to the American people, but
recognizing it hadn't gone the way that they wanted, that
their supporters wanted, he said it was a setback. He said,
(26:17):
setbacks are unavoidable, but giving up is unforgivable, and he
wanted to emphasize that message. Unlike the experience that he
had where he didn't get a proper transfer of power.
They didn't do the usual kind of meetings with the
Trump administration back in twenty twenty to make sure everything
went seamlessly. Donald Trump didn't turn up at his inauguration.
(26:37):
Joe Biden said he will do everything possible to make
sure it is a smooth transition of power, because that
is what US democracy is based on. So he's sort
of proving a proof point there that he will behave
in a more presidential style than the way that he
was dealt with when he came into office.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
Interesting that the House Rice is still what we can't
call it just yet, but it's crue, isn't it that?
Their House of Representatives, because that's where you get your
laws done, that's where you introduce your bills. And currently
the Republicans are up three. But if the Dems win
net chamber, then they can block some of Trump's legislative proposals.
So how long till we get a result on that?
(27:15):
Do you think?
Speaker 8 (27:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 19 (27:17):
I mean it's looking because it's so tight that it
could be you know, any point in the next few days.
And if Donald Trump gets the full thing, he will
have not only the House of Representatives and the Senate
and be able to pass at least for two years
until the midterms pretty much whatever legislation he wants without
needing bipaths and support. He also, of course, has a
majority in the Supreme Court from his last time in office,
(27:39):
which means that he really does control all branches of
government pretty solidly. And the Democrats will need to work
quickly on their autopsy of what went wrong. There's lots
of talk about the fact that they didn't sell their
achievements properly. Joe Biden was pointing out, you know, a
lot of the stuff that he has done. It won't
be felt right now. Perhaps, And I've been traveling in
(28:00):
California last month and in Illinois and Wisconsin this month.
There is infrastructure going on, spending from the bills that
he passed, but probably voters won't feel it for another
couple of years. And maybe they didn't quite understand that
that's something that he and Kamala Harris had achieved. So
Democrats will need to very quickly figure out what went
wrong because they want to stop the undoing of many
(28:21):
of the policies they've put in place in the last
four years. They'll need to win back in the midterms
control of at least the House or the Senates.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Yeah, the clocks that are ticking. Thanks so much for that,
Vincent mcavenny. Our correspondent in Wisconsin today, Ryan Bridge. It
is a living away from six year on news talks
here'd be so yesterday we heard from the former Prime
Minister John Key. Have a listen.
Speaker 15 (28:44):
There is some downsides for New Zealander. I'm not trying
to sugar coat bit. And they do consume me because
we need trade.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
But I think it.
Speaker 15 (28:53):
Won't all be the won't all be Negi of the
won't all be one.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
Way tripping the downsides. He's talking about Trump's tariffs and
we haven't number for you now from since partners could
cost our economy one point seven billion dollars every year.
Nathan Guy is with the Meat Industry Association. He's the chair.
He's currently up in Shanghai having meetings and attending an expo,
an export expo. Great to have you on the show, Nathan.
(29:16):
We had John Key on the shows today. You would
have heard he said, not sugarcoating this tariffs will be
terrible for us. Do you agree this is a big problem?
Speaker 15 (29:24):
Oh well, potentially. We just don't know at the moment.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Ryan.
Speaker 15 (29:28):
We all like certainty, but on the back of the
new Trump administration, I guess we're all a bit concerned,
but we're just going to have to breathe through it
over the next couple of months and see what happens.
Hell of a lot of speculation, no one quite knows,
but certainly if there is a tariff offteen or twenty percent,
it will impact the primary sector pretty hard. But ultimately
it's going to hurt the US consumers even harder because
(29:51):
they're going to have to pay more for the likes
of red meat or burger patties that we produce.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Do you think because we produce food, we might be
in a better position because Trump might not want to
increase tariffs and therefore prices on food items.
Speaker 15 (30:06):
I'm hoping that because of our reputation that we can
keep our head down and hopefully miss a massive tariff implication.
I'm also mindful of the fact that they've had a
massive drought over there and their beefood has been decimated.
It's going to take a couple of years to rebuild.
We're already seeing early indications are very strong pricing for
(30:30):
New Zealand grinding meat into the US. So if they
don't get it from us, they're going to have to
get it from somewhere else. I reckon our reputation is
going to be paramount up there, and it's our reputation
is really good. So here's hoping fingers and toes crossed
that we can sneak through.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Our diplomats have got a big job in Washington, DC.
Is that would the top priority be some kind of
exemption like the Aussie's got with aluminium and steel.
Speaker 15 (30:54):
That would be fantastic. Our ambassador up their Banks has
got very close links to the Republican parties. I understand it.
Meat companies in New Zealand have got strong links with
customers through to the Republicans as well, So I guess
we'll try all of those different communication channels. The relationship strong,
so hopefully we can avoid it.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
We're better off with Banks than we would be with
Kevin Rudd by the sounds of it.
Speaker 15 (31:21):
Yeah, I won't go there.
Speaker 3 (31:23):
Hey, the estimated cost potential costs since partners reckons could
be one point seven six billion dollars to our exporters.
Speaker 15 (31:33):
We're about eight billion of exports up in the US,
nearly three billion of red meat. It's very big market
for US. I don't know if it will be that much.
Once again, you know a lot of speculation. I think
we've just got to have cool heads, just work through it,
play the relationship card, honest brokers, and just see what happens.
Speaker 3 (31:54):
Try and get as much into China, I suppose as
we can, which is why you're there. How fierce is competition.
Speaker 15 (32:00):
Up here right now?
Speaker 8 (32:01):
Very fast?
Speaker 15 (32:02):
We had a very successful FDA. We were the first,
had the first move advantage. There's forty two countries now
that have got similar access to what we've got, So
we're pushing hard on our Taste Pure Nature initiative, which
is really selling our attributes of grass fed high and
nutrition and animals outdoors, all of those fantastic things that
(32:24):
our farmers do back in NZ world leading food safety
standards and there is a few green shoots up here
at the moment. We're seeing that consumer spenders starting to
tick up, so we're optimistic that we can sell more
into this market, but still going to be a few headwinds.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
Nathan, thank you very much for your time. Appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
Cheers, Ryan, thank you on your radio and online on
iHeartRadio early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New
Zealand's furniture Beds and a playing store.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
On Youth Talks, they'd be five six on news talks.
There'd be great to have your company on a Friday morning.
Lots of lovely messages for Neva, who's birthday is tomorrow.
It's been a good week. Mike's here. Hey Mike, it's
been a fun week at work. You have to say,
is it yeah? What happened with the US election? Well,
that's true, you know, I mean I find that stuff interesting.
Speaker 17 (33:11):
I find it invigorating. But Neva's a different story.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
What's wrong? I heard your message.
Speaker 17 (33:18):
You haven't been here long enough. You don't know the story.
You don't know the story. It's not up to me
to come on this program and tell the real story
about Well, you.
Speaker 3 (33:26):
Can't drop a little hint and then walk away. People
know what this means. All I've heard seen of Neva
is a lovely person, bubbly person who does wonderful things
for people around here.
Speaker 17 (33:43):
I thought Joe was nice, and he's that's that's when
he's at his best, and he's consideriatory, he gets it.
Been around long enough, and you know you want to
leave on a on a nice note. There's more time
and it won't be the last time you've heard fro him,
but you want to leave on a nice note.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
D Who have you got today?
Speaker 17 (33:59):
I've got who is in charge of the All Blacks
and so he's pressures on this week and this is
the pinnacle of the tour because you got France and
Italy to go, but you've got to beat the Irish.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
So it's all on us.
Speaker 17 (34:11):
He's with us after seventh thing.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Mike is with you. Next. Happy birthday for tomorrow and
never have a great day everyone, and a lovely weekend.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
News Dogs, it'd me.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Good morning at six after five. Great to have your
company this Friday morning. Coming up before six Nathan guys
and China for us on the two billion dollar Trump
terror threat. Also, we're live to Doublin ahead of the
game this week in Vincent mcavanis in Wisconsin. Joe Biden
is about to speak in response to the election of
Donald Trump. Will bring it the latest on that and
is TikTok spying on you? For China? The agenda Schizer,
(00:42):
It's fride out the eighth of November, and Germany's government
has collapsed. Chancellor Olaf Schultz has fired a key minister
too often.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
Federal Minister Lindsner has blocked laws and an irrelevant manner
too often. He has engaged in petty party political tactics
too often. He's broken my trust. He even unilaterally withdrew
from the budget agreement after we had already agreed on it.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
So the center right opposition, that's Angela Merkle's party. You
remember her. They want to vote of no confidence done
right now. Schultz has said no, I'm going to lead
a minority government until early next year we will have
the vote. Trump tariffs could cost us almost two billion
bucks a year.
Speaker 5 (01:22):
To me, the most beautiful word in the dictionary is tariff,
and it's my favorite word.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
We explort eight point eight billion dollars worth of goods
to the US every year. Since Partners says, at twenty
percent boom, that's one point seven billion dollars ripped from
our back pockets. At five twenty five, I'll tell you
about the kiwi whose job it is to stop this.
And before six, as I said Nathan Guy and China,
the former Minister for Primary Industries to the UK, the
Bank of England has cut interest rates by twenty five
(01:49):
basis points.
Speaker 6 (01:50):
It's the welcome news for millions of homeowners and businesses.
D's interest rates have been cut today to four point
seventy five percent. I do, though, recognize that for many
people who took out mortgages a few years ago, they're
still looking at higher rates.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeah. Also they're looking, thank you very much, Chancellor of
Rachel Reevs also looking at higher taxes through their employers
for US Federal Reserve is expected to drop its rates
by the same amounts later today. Overnight. Scientists are sounding
the alarm as it looks like global warming temperatures are
set to exceed one point five degrees above pre industrial
times for the first time ever. The first ten months
(02:29):
of this year have been so hot that the only
thing that could see the record not met would be
unusually low temperatures for the remainder of the year. S
eight after five.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
News and Views you Trust to start your day. It's
Burly edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's
furniture Beds and a flying store.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
News talk said, be everyone has been going on about
the one point five degrees, so I've just had a
look this morning. What will actually change once we hit
one point five Apparently seventy to ninety percent of coral
recewall dime at two degrees, they're all gone. Ninety nine
percent of them are gone. There'll be more waves, There'll
be droughts, unheard of storms will become the norm. Greenland
(03:09):
and Antarctica will melt even more than they are now.
That's at one point five degrees, which is not a
tipping point. They reckon. So everyone talks about it like, well,
the world will end once we get there. Not true.
For every tenth of a degree that the planet warms,
it gets worse. But the same happens in reverse, for
every tenth degree it gets better. So I guess it's
(03:29):
like when you burn your hand. You know, you put
some hot water on your hand and it burns, The
skin grows back, doesn't it It heals itself. That can happen.
Of course, what are we going to do down here
with our pretty little point whatever percent it is that
we emit? Not much. It's the big polluters who need
to front up on that. Nine minutes after five Karmla Harris,
(03:50):
what is she going to do now? And did you
hear that speech yesterday? The concession speech? Here's a exerpt.
Speaker 7 (03:56):
Can you see the stars? I know many people feel
like we are entering a dark time, but for the
benefit of us all I hope that is not the case.
But here's the thing, America, if it is, let us
fill the sky with the light of a brilliant, brilliant
(04:20):
billion of stars.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Brian Bridge.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Yeah, so she's going to be out of a job
in January, and judging by that, speech. I don't think
they'll pick her up on the speaking circuit. What is
she going to do? She lost the primary in twenty twenty,
She's lost the president in twenty twenty four. Rumors she
could run for governor, which would be a bit of
a step down for her. Gavin Newsom's the current governor.
There's talk that he might move to leader of the
(04:46):
opposition and then she might shimmey into his place. But
it would be a step down for her. It mean
she might go and do something else completely separate to this.
Who knows. Eleven minutes after five, Joe Biden about to
speak from Washington, d C. We'll bring you the later
on that shortly starts the.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
News you need this morning and the in depth analysis
early edition with Ryan Bridge and swith City, New Zealand's furniture,
beds and a playing store. News Talk said bed love to.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Hear from you this morning. Thirteen after five, nine ninety
two is the number to text overnight. Todd McClay, the
Minister Trades, released a statement. He says we've signed a
couple of MOUs with Chinese companies that should bring in
three hundred and forty million dollars boost trade by three
hundred and forty million dollars over the next couple of years.
He's at an importer's expo up in Shanghai, which is
(05:42):
where Nathan Guyers will speak to him before six fierce competition.
I'm told for our red meat in particular up there,
one of the deals is with a Chinese company for
our deer industry. They reckon, We're going to sell more there,
sell more velvet GMP Deary has done a deal with
Sino Life. Gmpdrey Enterday's strategic partnership with Sign and Life
to introduce new milk powder products to China and drive
(06:05):
mutual growth through de reinnovation. So you'll take that three
hundred and forty million dollar increase in New Zealand China
trade expected Bryan Bridge. We got the DC yesterday on
the Treaty's Principal's bill. The second principle says the Crown
will respect and protect the rights that Hapu and Ewe
Mahrdy had under the Treaty of Waitangi. However, this is
(06:25):
the crucial bit that seem more got in there. If
those rights differ from the rights of everybody else in
New Zealand. They only apply where there's an agreed treaty settlement.
Duncan Web's the Labor Justice spokesperson. Big protest plans next
planned next week is with US Live this morning. Good morning,
good morning, How are you good? Thank you? Are you
going to join those protests?
Speaker 8 (06:47):
I might get out there on the front lawn, but
you do get a set of Parliament. But I can
understand why those protests are happening. People are pretty angry
about this. It's a rewriting, right, just it's going backwards.
And you can't have government signed something in eighteen forty
and then decided one hundred and eighty years later later
that it's not what they wanted and have another crack.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
But isn't that what the courts have been doing?
Speaker 8 (07:09):
Absolutely not. I mean what you've got with the courts,
And you know, I've heard about the courts making stuff
up and so on, but that's not the case. You've
got two texts of the Treaty of Waitangi, one in English,
one in Marii. They're both valid and there's a fair
distance between them, so the courts have to navigate a
path between them, and so in doing that they've read
them both and said, look, the guts of it is,
(07:31):
or if they would say, in their fancy language, the
principles of the treaty are, and that's where you get
the principleship.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Is that a job for the courts? Is that a
job for the courts to interpret our founding document?
Speaker 8 (07:43):
Look, if you have a contract you're right on the
back of an envelope to sell a business, there's going
to be a lot of gaps in it. And when
you get at the court to argue about it, they're
going to fill the gaps for you. This was a
contract between two nations signed on a single piece of
paper undred and eighty years ago. There are gaps, there
are things that aren't clear. It's absolutely the job of
(08:06):
the courts to patch it up and make sure that
what the parties intended is what it rolls out and
delivers over time.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Is it a big deal that this has been brought forward, Well,
it's been brought.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Forward a week.
Speaker 8 (08:20):
It's not. Is it a big deal, It's just it's
just an a court. We've had the American election, so
the front page of you know, your lead stories and
everyone's front page is the American.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
You think it's they've done it, they've done it delivered.
Speaker 8 (08:34):
Yeah, it's comes management.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Heptins reckons. It is not a big deal. It's just normal,
normal parliamentary process and you wouldn't expect it to have
been told there was a change of date anyway.
Speaker 8 (08:44):
Well, who knows, but the reason for the change of
date was probably it was probably to keep it on
the load down question. We've got a heck we've got
the heck quary now coming on the same day.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
My question for you is you're the gist of the argument.
Is this so divisive and the same from the departi
Maliti and the Greens so divisive that you shouldn't go
near it? Do you think co governance was divisive?
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Well?
Speaker 8 (09:11):
CO governance clearly raised the hackles of a section of society.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
And we're starting to And it didn't stop you doing
it though, did it. I mean, so, it's not a
reason not to do something just because people might be
upset by it. I guess.
Speaker 8 (09:27):
Okay, I would accept that, But if it's both divisive
and fundamentally wrong and depriving Mary of something that they
have actually been promised, So it's not just that it's
it's people. Some people don't like it. It's that it's
fundamentally and constitutionally right. This isn't just some surface irritation.
(09:47):
This is going to the very heart of how we
formed our nation and changing the foundation stones. And that's
why it's both divisive and deeply wrong.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Dugan, thank you very much for your time this morning.
Appreciate you coming on the show. That's Dunk and Web
is Justice spokesperson eighteen after five.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
The first word on the News of the Day early
edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's furniture
beds at a play at store.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
News Talk said, be.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Five twenty on news Talk said, be going Vincent mcavinie
in Wisconsin just after the news at five point thirty.
Just to let you know, Joe Biden is expected to
speak any moment. Will bring you his comments, whatever they are.
Live reaction to Donald Trump being elected the forty seventh
President of the United States. Interestingly, he is apparently poised
to dole out the cash to Ukraine before he gets
(10:35):
out of the White House. There's four point three billion
dollars in unspent aid and they reckon he is going
to just basically open the floodgates to Zelenski before he
leaves in January twenty after five. Ryan Bridge, All Black
tacking on island at Dublin nine ten am tomorrow morning,
our time, which is perfect. You've just woken up, have
a cup of coffee, get your toast on and Elliot
(10:56):
Smith will be with your news talks, said B's voice
of Rugby, and he's with us now, Elliot, good morning,
get it.
Speaker 9 (11:02):
Ryan.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Couldn't have timed it better, really could you?
Speaker 9 (11:05):
Absolutely look Friday night here in Dublin. It's a match
that has been highly anticipated since last year's Rugby World
Cup quarter final the All Blacks won. There was a
bit of a tinned off from some of the All
Blacks to some of the Irish players, so the scene
has set more than a year on from that quarter
final for another spectacular meeting between these two sides. Plenty
(11:25):
of atmosphere around Dublin over the course of the week,
sense of real occasion and a rear Friday night game
as you see it and Saturday morning New Zealand times,
so all the ingredients are right there in the mixed,
Ryan for a pretty special game of rugby.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
And throw into that mix Johnny Sexton and his autobiography
that must be rking things.
Speaker 9 (11:44):
Up absolutely and look the comments that Rico Youanni gave
back to him. I spoke to Rico Yuwani a couple
of days ago. He was pretty keen not to fan
the flames any further around than that. But it just
adds to the backdrop, doesn't of this match and the
fact that these two teams very easily matched across the park,
(12:05):
but they don't seem to get on that well across it.
New Zealander's love going to Ireland and vice versa, but
when it comes to rugby over the last few years
that relationship has been fairly strained, and there's some big
personalities in both teams and it's spilled over and yeah,
those books. That comment from the books has certainly been
mentioned plenty over the course of the week. The All
(12:28):
Blacks themselves very careful, as I said, not to fan
the flames any further. But the backdrop's already there from
what has been said over the last few months.
Speaker 8 (12:36):
Ahead of this match.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
We're sort of up against it here, aren't we.
Speaker 9 (12:42):
Well Island of the world, number one, very very good,
well drilled team haven't changed too much since last year's
will cut. There's a sense that they really want to
avenge that defeat. All all the starters tomorrow nights here
in Dublin played a role in that game last year.
We're in that twenty so they haven't brought in to
(13:02):
many you faces. Is a sense that they want to
show Bill Blacks that they were good enough to win
last year and avenge that defeat, and the All Blacks
you know, they're still building. We saw last week at
tense win at Twickingham, come from behind victory. It certainly
wasn't perfect. There was a lot of errors. There were
a lot of erarors in that performance, a lot of
discipline issues that need to be fixed. But they'll raise
(13:24):
another level. I'm sure tomorrow night's try and get this
victory against the Garish, who admittedly go on his favorites
to the match given they are the world number one.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Elliott, thank you very much for that, Elliot Smith. News
Talks thereb Rugby commentator, the voice of rugby. You can
tune in tomorrow from nine am. Game starts at nineteen
on z b iHeartRadio and gold Sport.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Bryan Bridge twenty.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Three minutes after five year on News Talks cb SO
the guy you don't want in Washington right now representing
your country is Kevin Rudd. He's made some comments about
Trump in the past, and now he has to cozy
up to him and try and be as mate. One
of the tweets that he's apparently scrubbed from the internet
called him the most destructive president in history. And this
(14:08):
is Donald Trump talking about those comments a couple of
years ago.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
I heard he was a little bit nasty.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
You were a destructive president, a treator to the West.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
He won't be there longer.
Speaker 8 (14:18):
That's the case. I don't know much about him.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Now.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
What's interesting is, you know, old Elbows come to his defense,
but he was elbow criticizing Trump in twenty seventeen. Have
a listen to this congratulations to President Trump. Hang on,
let's go back a little further to twenty seventeen.
Speaker 10 (14:35):
President Trump has run a campaign based on change, and
he's made it clear he's going to do things differently,
so we shouldn't be surprised.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
No, that wasn't quite twenty seventeen, was it. Basically though,
the problem was for Elbows. He said very similar things
about Donald Trump being a destructive president for the United
States and now here. He is trying to cozy out,
So you want to be careful about what you say
about Donald Trump in case he comes back to haunt you.
It is twenty five minutes after five News Talks VB, the.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Early edition full the show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by
Newstalks FB.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
You're on News TALKSB twenty seven after five. Rosemary Banks
remember that name. She now has one of the most
important jobs for New Zealand, a potential two billion dollar job.
She's our woman in DC. She's the ambassador to the
United States. Her mission get us an exemption to Trump's tariffs.
The scale of the problem massive. Early estimates at twenty percent.
(15:34):
It could cost US one point seven billion dollars every year.
Our total exports currently eight point eight billion, so that's huge.
It can be done. The Aussie's got an exemption on
steel and aluminium in twenty eighteen under Trump. Is she
up to the job. I'm told yes, if anyone can
do it, Rosemary Banks is the person that you want
(15:55):
up there. I'm told she's got excellent contacts with the
Republican Party and she is working the phones and working
them hard. She was asked to stay on by Winston
Peters back in May in anticipation that Trump might get
in smart move. She's the same ambassador, was the same
ambassador in charge when we nearly got an FTA through
during Trump's last term. Of course, it's not all on her. Winston, Todd, McLay,
(16:17):
lux and they will all play their parts. But the
ground game is on Rosemary. And we may have some
advantage here in that we do export food, and food
is something Trump probably doesn't want to make more expensive.
Then there's the uncertainty of whether Trump will actually make
good on his campaign big talk. Rosemary's not waiting around
for that uncertainty or for certainty. On the uncertainty, I
(16:38):
should say they have a plan, and by god, it
better be a good one. We like to hate on diplomats,
don't we. Oh, they just go to nice dinners and
drink wine and schmooze. Well, it is time to crack
out our best pino, use the contacts and make the
deals happen. The weight of our export nation is on
your shoulders, Rosemary. Best of luck and Bridge. Twenty eight
(17:01):
minutes after five, you're on news talks hereb Here's Joe
Biden speaking from the White House.
Speaker 5 (17:06):
Yesterday I spoke with President like Trump to congratulate him
on his victory, and I assured him I direct my
entire administration to work with his team to ensure a
peaceful and orderly transition.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
That's what the American people deserve. Coming up, TikTok, is
it spying on you for China? Canada's raised some concerns overnight.
I'll tell you about those. It is twenty nine after five.
You're on news Talk CIB.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Get ahead of the headlines. Ryan Bridge, you for twenty
twenty four on early edition with Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture.
It's Er Planet Store News Talks.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
It'd be.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Good Morning, New Zealand. It is twenty four after six
er on News Talks. It'd be great to have your
company this Friday morning. Vincent mcavenie's with us live from Wisconsin.
Shortly and Nathan Guy, former primary Industries minister, is in China.
What are they saying about Trump's election. We'll get the
lowdown from him just before six o'clock. Right now, Biden
has spoken from the White House. He's a longer clip
(18:30):
than you got in the news.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
We accept the choice the country, mad I've said many times.
You can't love your country only when you win. You
can't love your neighbor only when you agree something I
hope we can do. No matter who you voted for,
(18:52):
you see each other not as adversaries, but as fellow Americans.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
And Bridge brig That would make a nice change. Come
on prop in Dunedin for us this morning as we
go to our reporters around the country. Calum Otaga University's
warning of an online scam featuring an endochronologist.
Speaker 11 (19:10):
Yeah, morning, Ryan, This is Professor Sir Jim Mann's likeness
which has been used in this online advertisement encouraging people
with type two diabetes to stop taking a medication called
mett Foreman. This is a deep fake video. It's been
posted to a Facebook page and there's.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Real concerns about it.
Speaker 11 (19:29):
It uses footage of the professor grit's created to look
and sound just like a one news clip. Professor Mann
says he feels like his identity has been stolen. He
says it looks very genuine, but he has never said
any of the things in the video before.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
How's your weather today?
Speaker 11 (19:46):
Cloudy, occasional rain, snormily strong for a time today, high
of twenty all right.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Good to know, Calum, thank you for that, Claire Sue.
I mean, presumably if you're taking medication for diabetes, you
wouldn't stop taking it unless your doctor told you not to.
That would be the advice. Clear is in Christ judge clear.
Speaking of doctors, a few people needed them after that
Halls of Residence incident. What's happening with the kitchen there?
Speaker 12 (20:10):
Did they ever need the doctors? So look, a review
of the kitchen processes at the University of Canterbury Halls
of Residence has been promised. Now this is after hundreds
of students fell.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Earlier in the week.
Speaker 12 (20:22):
It's because they ate this chicken dinner at the halls
on Sunday night. Now tests are set to confirm if
heating and cooling of shredded chicken was the cause of
this gastro outbreak affecting hundreds. That's certainly what New Zealand
Food Safety believes happened. That's their working theory at the moment.
UNI Lodge which manages University Hall and the item apartments,
(20:42):
so they're reviewing every aspect of food operations. They say
improvements will be implemented to ensure all meals meet their
safety and quality standards. The good news as most or
almost all of the affected students have fully recovered.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
That is the good news, clear. Thank you. How's the
weather a nice warm one.
Speaker 12 (21:00):
Here in christ Church today some high club will increase
a bit later northerly strong this afternoon at the High
twenty five brilliant.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Thank you Mexis and Wellington mechs. An interesting comeback for
a Courtney Place bar. Yeah, you could call it iconic,
you could call it infamous.
Speaker 13 (21:15):
This is estab or Establishment bar which was historically for
seventeen years right in the heart of our entertainment district
Courtney Place, until it closed after losing its liquor license
in twenty twenty one. I think it closed the first
weekend of twenty two. Popular with students, relatively cheap, it
was an interesting spot. The Wellington District Licensing Committee at
(21:35):
one point labeling it the highest risk premises in the city.
Operator Mike Drummond says he is now opening Establishment two
point zero in the same location. He's excited to try
to revitalize Courtney Place. He hopes to open by Christmas.
Interesting timing again, when a police is so frequently trying
to stop new businesses getting a liquor license along Courtney Place,
(21:58):
which itself really battling to sustain itself.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Yeah, so why did you close the first one? Because
it was it lost its license? Right, Okay, clearly I
wasn't listening. Maybe I didn't say it. I'm not sure.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Good.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
How's your weather.
Speaker 13 (22:13):
Mostly cloudy, some stronger northerly seventeen Hey, brilliant.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 14 (22:18):
Right now, Friday, isn't it?
Speaker 15 (22:20):
Well?
Speaker 3 (22:20):
Tomorrow is Saturday.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
You're rich.
Speaker 14 (22:23):
Saturday my birthday Tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
That means it's your birthday tomorrow.
Speaker 14 (22:39):
They've got it, Confiti, you've got this and the head takeno.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
You're always doing lovely things for everyone in the office,
So I make sure I made sure we found out
it was your birthday. And I've got where, got my
partner to go and get chocolates. Oh wow, I've got
three chocolates, so I'll get three questions? How old are you?
Speaker 14 (23:00):
Twenty one? Again?
Speaker 3 (23:02):
There's one chocolate?
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (23:03):
How old are you really churning?
Speaker 14 (23:05):
Twenty one again? Twenty one?
Speaker 3 (23:08):
The truth for a chocolate fish?
Speaker 14 (23:10):
Yes, my full name?
Speaker 3 (23:11):
No, don't tell us. I shouldn't have even asked.
Speaker 14 (23:17):
Because can I just say yes, it is tomorrow. So
I'm going home table we met, and then I'm going
to Tabor early a late lunch with alcohol today to celebrate. Hey,
because it's yours later.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
On next month, next week, next week. Hey, Heavin. Listen, Neva,
you've got cans on. Got some lovely messages for you
this morning. Hi, Nithera, it's clean here.
Speaker 16 (23:40):
I'm a bit confused about this because I just assumed
that you didn't age and didn't have birthdays. I've known
you for quite a long time now, and I've never
seen you age at all. So yeah, is this just
some kind of shame to get presents? What's going on?
Speaker 8 (23:55):
Sorry?
Speaker 17 (23:55):
Who Niba?
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Neiba?
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Who?
Speaker 17 (23:58):
Bosha the the news? Hey Nether Gosh.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
I like you.
Speaker 17 (24:07):
You're one of a kind, one out of the box.
Sixty three, still looking good. Happy birthday, Nether, Happy birthday,
Parking buddy, you've handled the depths and discoveries of B
two with a plot.
Speaker 10 (24:22):
Greetings Neve, all is hair, just wishing you a happy birthday.
Know that you'll be in the traditions of Z. B.
Bourton's X number of years old and champagne flutes will
be out, but hopefully any baking law making any stale mups,
all the best.
Speaker 18 (24:39):
The happy birthday, my friend. Absolutely love getting to work
with you at four am Monday through Friday. It's a
real special thing to see your smiley face each morning.
And I hope you have a cracking birthday because you're
a cracking person.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
That all seven of them.
Speaker 14 (24:58):
Who was the last one?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
I don't know? Oh, thank you. So it's my fault
for giving them unlimited time in a recording booth that
went far too long. I love it. How's the weather,
Happy birthday?
Speaker 14 (25:12):
Well, cloudy periods, It's a mixed bag morning for possible
showers developing around mid day, could be heavy, but everybody,
it's going to be warm, warm, and wet. Twenty three
degrees is the high.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Nothing like being warm and wet neither. Thank you and
happy birthday for tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
International correspondence with ends in eye insurance, Peace of mind
for New Zealand business.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
It is fourteen away from six year old news talk,
said b Vincent mcavney as a UK your own correspondent.
Excuse me, he's with us from Wisconsin today though following
the election. Vincent, great to have you on the program.
We've just heard from President Biden, did he say anything
out of the ordinary.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 19 (25:53):
President Biden was addressing for the first time since the
election in the Rose Garden of the White House. He
praised Kama Harris, saying that she had run a good campaign,
that she was someone of character, and that he thought
that she had shown that to the American people, but
recognizing it hadn't gone the way that they wanted, that
their supporters wanted, he said it was a setback. He said,
(26:17):
setbacks are unavoidable, but giving up is unforgivable, and he
wanted to emphasize that message. Unlike the experience that he
had where he didn't get a proper transfer of power.
They didn't do the usual kind of meetings with the
Trump administration back in twenty twenty to make sure everything
went seamlessly. Donald Trump didn't turn up at his inauguration.
(26:37):
Joe Biden said he will do everything possible to make
sure it is a smooth transition of power, because that
is what US democracy is based on. So he's sort
of proving a proof point there that he will behave
in a more presidential style than the way that he
was dealt with when he came into office.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
Interesting that the House Rice is still what we can't
call it just yet, but it's crue, isn't it that?
Their House of Representatives, because that's where you get your
laws done, that's where you introduce your bills. And currently
the Republicans are up three. But if the Dems win
net chamber, then they can block some of Trump's legislative proposals.
So how long till we get a result on that?
(27:15):
Do you think?
Speaker 8 (27:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 19 (27:17):
I mean it's looking because it's so tight that it
could be you know, any point in the next few days.
And if Donald Trump gets the full thing, he will
have not only the House of Representatives and the Senate
and be able to pass at least for two years
until the midterms pretty much whatever legislation he wants without
needing bipaths and support. He also, of course, has a
majority in the Supreme Court from his last time in office,
(27:39):
which means that he really does control all branches of
government pretty solidly. And the Democrats will need to work
quickly on their autopsy of what went wrong. There's lots
of talk about the fact that they didn't sell their
achievements properly. Joe Biden was pointing out, you know, a
lot of the stuff that he has done. It won't
be felt right now. Perhaps, And I've been traveling in
(28:00):
California last month and in Illinois and Wisconsin this month.
There is infrastructure going on, spending from the bills that
he passed, but probably voters won't feel it for another
couple of years. And maybe they didn't quite understand that
that's something that he and Kamala Harris had achieved. So
Democrats will need to very quickly figure out what went
wrong because they want to stop the undoing of many
(28:21):
of the policies they've put in place in the last
four years. They'll need to win back in the midterms
control of at least the House or the Senates.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Yeah, the clocks that are ticking. Thanks so much for that,
Vincent mcavenny. Our correspondent in Wisconsin today, Ryan Bridge. It
is a living away from six year on news talks
here'd be so yesterday we heard from the former Prime
Minister John Key. Have a listen.
Speaker 15 (28:44):
There is some downsides for New Zealander. I'm not trying
to sugar coat bit. And they do consume me because
we need trade.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
But I think it.
Speaker 15 (28:53):
Won't all be the won't all be Negi of the
won't all be one.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
Way tripping the downsides. He's talking about Trump's tariffs and
we haven't number for you now from since partners could
cost our economy one point seven billion dollars every year.
Nathan Guy is with the Meat Industry Association. He's the chair.
He's currently up in Shanghai having meetings and attending an expo,
an export expo. Great to have you on the show, Nathan.
(29:16):
We had John Key on the shows today. You would
have heard he said, not sugarcoating this tariffs will be
terrible for us. Do you agree this is a big problem?
Speaker 15 (29:24):
Oh well, potentially. We just don't know at the moment.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Ryan.
Speaker 15 (29:28):
We all like certainty, but on the back of the
new Trump administration, I guess we're all a bit concerned,
but we're just going to have to breathe through it
over the next couple of months and see what happens.
Hell of a lot of speculation, no one quite knows,
but certainly if there is a tariff offteen or twenty percent,
it will impact the primary sector pretty hard. But ultimately
it's going to hurt the US consumers even harder because
(29:51):
they're going to have to pay more for the likes
of red meat or burger patties that we produce.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Do you think because we produce food, we might be
in a better position because Trump might not want to
increase tariffs and therefore prices on food items.
Speaker 15 (30:06):
I'm hoping that because of our reputation that we can
keep our head down and hopefully miss a massive tariff implication.
I'm also mindful of the fact that they've had a
massive drought over there and their beefood has been decimated.
It's going to take a couple of years to rebuild.
We're already seeing early indications are very strong pricing for
(30:30):
New Zealand grinding meat into the US. So if they
don't get it from us, they're going to have to
get it from somewhere else. I reckon our reputation is
going to be paramount up there, and it's our reputation
is really good. So here's hoping fingers and toes crossed
that we can sneak through.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Our diplomats have got a big job in Washington, DC.
Is that would the top priority be some kind of
exemption like the Aussie's got with aluminium and steel.
Speaker 15 (30:54):
That would be fantastic. Our ambassador up their Banks has
got very close links to the Republican parties. I understand it.
Meat companies in New Zealand have got strong links with
customers through to the Republicans as well, So I guess
we'll try all of those different communication channels. The relationship strong,
so hopefully we can avoid it.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
We're better off with Banks than we would be with
Kevin Rudd by the sounds of it.
Speaker 15 (31:21):
Yeah, I won't go there.
Speaker 3 (31:23):
Hey, the estimated cost potential costs since partners reckons could
be one point seven six billion dollars to our exporters.
Speaker 15 (31:33):
We're about eight billion of exports up in the US,
nearly three billion of red meat. It's very big market
for US. I don't know if it will be that much.
Once again, you know a lot of speculation. I think
we've just got to have cool heads, just work through it,
play the relationship card, honest brokers, and just see what happens.
Speaker 3 (31:54):
Try and get as much into China, I suppose as
we can, which is why you're there. How fierce is competition.
Speaker 15 (32:00):
Up here right now?
Speaker 8 (32:01):
Very fast?
Speaker 15 (32:02):
We had a very successful FDA. We were the first,
had the first move advantage. There's forty two countries now
that have got similar access to what we've got, So
we're pushing hard on our Taste Pure Nature initiative, which
is really selling our attributes of grass fed high and
nutrition and animals outdoors, all of those fantastic things that
(32:24):
our farmers do back in NZ world leading food safety
standards and there is a few green shoots up here
at the moment. We're seeing that consumer spenders starting to
tick up, so we're optimistic that we can sell more
into this market, but still going to be a few headwinds.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
Nathan, thank you very much for your time. Appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
Cheers, Ryan, thank you on your radio and online on
iHeartRadio early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New
Zealand's furniture Beds and a playing store.

It's been a good week. Mike's here. Hey Mike, it's
been a fun week at work. You have to say,
is it yeah? What happened with the US election? Well,
that's true, you know, I mean I find that stuff interesting.
Speaker 17 (33:11):
I find it invigorating. But Neva's a different story.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
What's wrong? I heard your message.
Speaker 17 (33:18):
You haven't been here long enough. You don't know the story.
You don't know the story. It's not up to me
to come on this program and tell the real story
about Well, you.
Speaker 3 (33:26):
Can't drop a little hint and then walk away. People
know what this means. All I've heard seen of Neva
is a lovely person, bubbly person who does wonderful things
for people around here.
Speaker 17 (33:43):
I thought Joe was nice, and he's that's that's when
he's at his best, and he's consideriatory, he gets it.
Been around long enough, and you know you want to
leave on a on a nice note. There's more time
and it won't be the last time you've heard fro him,
but you want to leave on a nice note.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
D Who have you got today?
Speaker 17 (33:59):
I've got who is in charge of the All Blacks
and so he's pressures on this week and this is
the pinnacle of the tour because you got France and
Italy to go, but you've got to beat the Irish.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
So it's all on us.
Speaker 17 (34:11):
He's with us after seventh thing.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Mike is with you. Next. Happy birthday for tomorrow and
never have a great day everyone, and a lovely weekend.
