The issues, the interviews and the inside. Ryan Bridge on
early edition with one roof make your property search simple
us dogs.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
That'd be good morning. It is six after five. Welcome
to your Monday morning. Simeon Brown on the after ours
health care. Is this a case of over promising? It's
got a whiff of that about it. We'll talk to
him just before six this morning. Orkley FC and the Warriors.
Great weekend for both of them. Of course Awkley FC
now coming home to Auckland, so what do they need
to do there? Plus Ryan Fox is just teed off.
(00:33):
We'll talk to Andrew Alison in a few minutes time,
and we're going to the UK with Gavin Gray for
some Well, there's a lot going on there actually, including
Elton John having a massive spray at the government, calling
Keir Starmer and his lot absolute losers. Seven after five
the Agenda, Monday, the nineteenth of May. Two people have
(00:53):
been killed at least nineteen injured. This after that Mexican
Navy training ship crashed into New York's City Brooklyn Bridge.
Police say the ship, which had two hundred and seventy
seven people on board, lost power was forced into the bridge.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
You're going to have a lot of investigative agencies. They're
going to be taking a fine tooth calm to figure
out exactly what led to this issue here and with
this mechanical issue, they're going to dig deep.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
What was it that failed? How did it fail?
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Why did it fail?
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Pope Leo's having his first inauguration mass He's had a
meeting with Zelenski as well. He's talking about marginalization of
the poor and autocracy.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
We still see too much discord caused by hatred that
exploits the resources.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Meanwhile, Trump is going to pick up the phone and
he is going to speak with Putin by tomorrow. So
I'm by the timing with you on ed tomorrow. We
should have had a phone conversation between Persian and Trump.
This is about Indian the war in the Ukraine. Of course,
he posted this to his truth social account, saying he'll
then speak to Zelensky and the leaders of some NATO countries.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
Days ago, mister Trump had voice that he is growing
skeptical of a direct talks between Ukrainians and Russians, yielding
result that he believes that no peace deal will happen
unless he sits down with the Russian leader himself and
the Kremlin had said that they are interested in this summit,
but they would require a careful planning.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Eldon John really upset at the UK government. This is
all over copyright laws.
Speaker 6 (02:35):
It's really disrespectful, it's really disheartening. I want the government
to see since I want it to come back on
our side.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
And that is your agenda for your Monday morning, nine
minutes half to five.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Ryan Bridge on Early Edition with one roof make your
Property search simple used talg Zibby.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
It's just a couple of things for Simeon Brown, who'll
be on the show before six this morning. This announcement yesterday,
it sounds great and they always do. But after ours
an urgent care one hundred and sixty four million dollars
over four years, that's forty one million dollars a year.
Sounds good, sounds great, But Devil's always in the detail
with this stuff. So he says in the release, the
(03:16):
funding will establish a new twenty four hour urgent care
service identified for counties Monaco. Okay, that sounds to me.
You know, I'm just a layman, but that sounds to
me like counties Monaco. You're getting a new twenty four
hour urgent and care service. Great, however, then says it
will also support new twenty four hour urgent care services
(03:38):
identified for Fungaday, Palmeston, North Totonga and Dunedin. Now support
and identified are some pretty massive qualifiers. So are they
going to get them or not? We'll ask if you're
in any of those areas this morning, fung Outa, Palmeston,
North Totonger or Duneed and good morning you'll be wanting
to know. We'll ask the minister for six. You don't
have to look far, and we should grateful in New
(04:01):
Zealand that we have relatively stable democracy. You don't have
to look far to see how unstable the world is,
how off it's kilter the world is. Millions of Europeans
are going to the polls today. Then they're not doing
very well at one holding elections and then two staying
in power. You've got Romania, Poland and Portuguese going today.
(04:22):
You've got in Romania and I told you about this
a couple of months ago. The right wing nationalist guy
he won the first round of voting earlier this month.
But remember the last election at the end of last year.
They had to annul that one because of Russian interference,
so they had one go didn't work. Now they're having
the second go Portugal their third general election in barely
(04:45):
three years. They've got a minority government just keeps falling
over because the political landscape is so fragmented. This is emigration,
think housing, think constant living. You get these minority governments
and they just collapse. The funniest part is not funny,
but it's sort of funny. The funniest part about this
is that the polls, if the polls are to be believed,
(05:05):
they're going to end up with the exact same result
that they have now. So after everyone going and voting,
they will get exactly what they had yesterday. That's what
the polls are telling us anyway. And then of course
Poland's going this is the presidential election, so you know Tusk,
who's the prime minister. You've got polls going to the
polls to elect a new president. Will they stick with
(05:27):
the European vision or will they go with this sort
of Trump admirer Candid that that's the question for them
this morning. Gavin Gray in the UK for US later
in the program to eleven after five.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
The first word on the news of the Day, Early
edition with Ryan Bridge and one Room to make your
property Surgeon Symbol News Talks five fourteen.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Sir Thomas calling on the Herald this morning sums it
up pretty well. So we know we had two point
four million dollars in operating spending for this budget that's
coming on Thursday, Nichola Willis's second that's been half to
one point three billion. Half of that's already been committed,
a new funding for medicines to farmac, and then you've
got all of the announcements. We had another one yesterday,
the pre budget announcements. You know with the twelve billion
(06:10):
over four years on defense, you've got the student attendance
one hundred and forty million, you've got one hundred million
over four years on student under achievement in maths, you
name it, you name it. And they've basically promised more
than they are take, promised to spend more than they
are currently able to under that operating allowance, which basically
means one thing. But cuts are coming. The question, of
(06:31):
course with Thursday is from where fourteen after five Brian Bridge,
So let's talk more about the budget now. So it
will be a highest spending of any government in history,
borrowing is still high. Minister's going to have to make counts.
We don't quite know where. From Business Central CEO Simon
Archus of me this morning, Simon, good morning.
Speaker 7 (06:48):
Good morning, Ryan.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Very well. Now you're in Wellington. Where would you where
would you cut? Where's the fat?
Speaker 7 (06:55):
Look, there isn't much, Shannon. I think that's the tyrope
the government's walking. How do you bou do you balance
some fiscal restraints, you know, keep not spending with the
reality of needing to boost the economy. It's a really
difficult question. And as you say, a lot of budgets,
big headline items are known, so I'm not quite sure.
Wellington certainly has had public sector cuts of course, and
(07:18):
suffered as a consequence of that. So let's hope there's
not too much more that space could well be then.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Yeah, it's interesting. It's an interesting place for Wellington to be,
right because the rest of the country is going, ah,
just cut them, slash them, burn them, and you and
the businesses in Wellington are actually the ones that feel
that right.
Speaker 7 (07:36):
Well absolutely, And what's really interesting about the direct government
spending into Wellington. It accounts for about twelve percent of
the GDP and while that doesn't sound like a huge amount,
that's before you've got all the extra professional services, support
services where a civil servant goes and buys a a
sandwich at once. But it's a big impact. And if
you compared to the rest of the country, that's only
(07:57):
about four percent, so it's a big It is a
big chunk of our economy and I think that's what's
really made it tough in the recent times.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Infrastructure Simon. We're hearing about plans, we're hearing about cash.
Has anyone actually seen any money yet?
Speaker 7 (08:12):
One of the things that is a concern is infrastructure
certainly is high on the agenda, but we need to
see that stuff starting. We need to see the green
grow button with a lot of that and that's a
big thing for Wellington. And of course the other thing
that is a little bit of a bright spot is
probably the film spend and crewdive industry spend that down
(08:33):
here will have an impact too.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Hey, what a business is thing? If she was to
come out on Thursday Nichola Willison say I want you
to increase your employee, can we save a contribution? What
do you reckon?
Speaker 7 (08:44):
Businesses would say, Well, I think I think this is
really interesting and a lot of a government if you
think about fiscal restraint but wanting to boost the economy.
If you think about questions around key we Saver, you
say we business largely without the trajector, but the john
individual businesses or the impact on businesses as the days
(09:07):
and weeks go on has been really tough. I think
I think employer contribution to here we savers something got
to look at, and we've got to look at how
to make sure that in the future people will be
more secure in their retirement and less dependent on the government.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Simon, I appreciate your time this morning. Thank you very much.
Simon Archis who is with us from Wellington Business Central CEO.
It is seventeen after five Andrew Ordison next, Ryan Fox
tearing off.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Get ahead of the headlines on early edition with Ryan
Bridge and one roof Make your property search simple news Dogs.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
That'd be five nineteen So the old Western Springs and
Auckland for those who know, big battle going on between
the x Abs over who will take control of it?
You know what will happen to it, what will the
future of it? Best you've got this morning, sir Brian
Williams coming out with his vision for a community solution.
So you're looking at a five to eight thousand six
stadium that could cater for club sport, school finals, competitions,
(10:05):
your community tournaments, all that kind of stuff. Nice stuff.
And then you've got on the other side, over a
very high fence, you've got Allie Williams and his crew
and they are promising twenty five thousand capacity concert venue,
eight indoor basketball courts, indoor six paddle courts, four outdoor
training fields, five hospitality establishments. That's how they make their money.
(10:27):
So your coffee, where you watching that sport? And three
hundred million dollar price tag but it's all privately funded.
Brian leashed you. But the council will have to pay
for that, won't they? So whose side are you on?
Twenty after five Bridge Andrew Ortison Here was fot good
morning Greeting's Ryan? Which side of the fence would you sit?
Speaker 8 (10:46):
Geez, well hard to go past b G to be honest,
he's a wily character. Yeah, Hi, I tak you boy though, Yeah, yeah,
just this year numbers et cetera. Yeah, yeah, always got
a lot of backing in that part of the world.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
He does and he's a great man. So in the
FC they've had a win, great and it's it's second
league to come.
Speaker 8 (11:07):
Yep, so one up literally over over Melbourn victory. So yeah,
coming to back to Auckland for this, you know, speaking
of the year that the Ellie Williams et cetera, and
that the band with the Oakland FC. What I mean,
the season continues to go for strength to strength. Almost
took it to nil. I think that moreno strike just
late in the game hit both goalposts and abounded away.
(11:30):
But yeah, the logan Rogers is striking the sixty fourth
minute that was enough to take them through. So yeah,
it's they're just that one game away from making the Grand.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
And it's points across both games as yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:41):
Yeah, so home and away and then established with you
you you go.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Through hopefully we'll get the final one of the PACIFICA
has been burning the blues. That was quite cool.
Speaker 8 (11:50):
I just think that's that's what makes the rugby, that's
what makes the competition, if you like. It's just so
long that we've been waiting for this for this to happen,
and that's just I think it's wonderful for the for
the sport as a whole. Arlie Savvy is always already
the player of the season for Super Rugby as a
result of the voting process.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
But just leading them from the front end. Gee, they were.
Speaker 8 (12:09):
They were a compelling watch, right I thought. And to
beat the Blues defending champions just an in Auckland contest
as it was at North Harbor there.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
But what a.
Speaker 8 (12:20):
Remarkable showing from wider pacifica so into the top six
into the playoff spots, beating the Blues out for the
time being. Blues with the buy this week and then
into the final round.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Had my parents staying with me on the weekend and
Dad was saying, oh, ye, the Hurricanes could get into
the finals. Is he dreaming possibly? Yeah, they're not doing that.
I mean they're doing okay now, but they in the
last few weeks, but they haven't been doing that well.
Speaker 8 (12:44):
Ask yeah, yeah, yeah, So we'll see what happens all right. Yeah,
he's a dreams coming down to their day.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Ryan Fox Fox has already made his dreams come true
this morning. He's in the final round ten tend to
five this morning.
Speaker 8 (12:56):
Yes, I've just been watching it before I came in here.
He has part of the Furst, so still sitting in
that year of seventeenth, he's three under overall, but it's
going to take a lot to haul in Scottie Schiffley here,
number one golf from the world Ruyne and pretty much
at the top of his game. He's eleven under, so
it's going to require something pretty remarkable from Fox. But
(13:17):
then again, if he holds where he is, he is
going to get a terrific paycheck. So yeah, continuing that
form that he had from what we saw go earlier
on with his first victory on the PGA to a
Moodle Beach Classic and he took it into the first
round with the four under head of what an even
par around in a one over round.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
So you just interesting to see what he produces a
tall order. Yeah, I think so. I think so. But
like the Hurricane, it's just.
Speaker 8 (13:43):
If you go and where Fox is going though, that's
just that's just a remarkable achievement in itself. So you know,
to hold that to a card for another two years,
the peace of mind from that that's.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Really the bigger win. Pretty special, isn't it. It is
good to see your Andrew right hearing from me throughout
the morning, forwards. Andrew Ortison was sport twenty four minutes
after five You're on News Talks said, you know when
you go online and buy something, if you're somebody who
does that, and even if you go into a physical
store and they ask you a million questions about yourself
before they sell you something, why that's next The.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Early edition full show podcast on iHeartRadio Power It by Newstalks.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
IV five twenty six News Talks VB. Here's a question
for your Monday morning. If somebody came up to you
on the street and said, can I have your date
of birth, your next of can your phone number, your
personal address? I want all of your interests, your sports,
your hobbies, what color yourundies are? What would you say?
(14:35):
You would tell that person to promptly buger off, wouldn't you?
And yet, for some random reason, when a random business
asks you this stuff while you're buying a shampoo or
a computer mouse on the internet, we happily give it away,
We hand it over, we pay for our loot using
probably a credit card with a password, and then we
think nothing more of it and go about our day.
(14:58):
And the reason we do this is because we're asked
to do it. And we often don't have much choice,
you know, when you don't answer those questions with the
asterisks on them, and you can't go to step two
even if you're paying for this thing. So the Privacy
Commissioner has a new report out, and it's basically a
middle finger from us to big tech on data. Two
thirds two thirds of us say projecting our personal information
(15:22):
is now a major concern in our lives is a
major concern, presumably up there with death and a mortgage.
Eighty percent say they want more control over it, and
I agree with them. Honestly, Why does my hairdresser need
to know my date of birth when I'm booking an appointment?
Does it tell them how thin my hair might be
at a certain age? Do they need my address to
(15:44):
ship the hair back to me after they've cut it
and swept it off the floor. Do they need my
surname because it might denote the frailty in my follicles
passed down through generations. No, it's because they can ask
for it, so they do. Presumably they're making money off
it somehow, I don't know. Honestly, my online supermarket and
electricity provider know more intimate details about me than some
(16:08):
of my exes. We regularly reveal more personal details to
countdown than we would on a first date. Companies here
can basically ask you anything. You often have to answer.
They must take reasonable steps to keep this a secret.
But how long until the hack has come? And then
it's all out there and it's all out the window,
(16:29):
and it's all on the internet. Right, everyone knows that happens.
The EU has quite strict rules. Businesses must give you
the option of rejecting cookies. You notice when you go
on a website in the EU, you can decline the
cookies informed consent over there only asking for the stuff
related to what you're buying or doing, and you have
(16:49):
the right to go in and delete or change the
information that companies hold on you. I know we can't
do that, can we? You could avoid the internet all together?
Of course I can hear what you're saying, but that
train has sort of left the station. So can I suggest, Kishi?
Can I ask a question to businesses this morning? Can
(17:09):
you please stop asking us so many damned, irrelevant and
annoying questions?
Speaker 9 (17:17):
Ryan Bridge, thank you very much.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
I would appreciate it. Twenty nine minutes after five, you're
on News Talks there b our reporters around the country shortly,
and we'll get to Gavin Gray in the UK. Big
meeting between the EU and Starmer overnight.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Well on your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early edition
with Ryan Bridge and One Roof to make your Property
search simple, Youth Talk said, be.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Good morning, twenty four minutes away from six News Talks B.
We're going to talk to Sime and Brown just before
six on the health after ours care announcements yesterday, are
they really what they see? And we'll get to Gavin
Gray in the UK shortly. I just want to say
there's a lot of support for my idea of basically
sharpening up the rules. When you do something, buy something
online and you guess asked one thousand and one questions,
(18:21):
they shouldn't be able to ask you a thousand and
one questions about your you know what color you underwear are?
David says Ryan. I agree. We just want to grab
the milk and go. Sometimes when we're at the supermarket,
not feel like we're filling out a tax return at
the checkout. This is so true when a quick purchase
turns into an interrogation about our phone number, email life
goals and whether they're the like to round it up
(18:43):
for charity. It starts to feel like a transaction, less
like a transaction, more like an unexpected therapy session. I agree.
And what's with those machines that countdown? You know? They
say on the left hand side you've got a machine
card only it says you know, and then your cash
ones are labeled separately. Okay, So I go with the
card one and then you tap cap, swipe, swape, swampe
(19:05):
bing ban bang, off you go, and then it says
how would you like to pay? You already told me
how the option there is one, So just let me
tap the card and go. I mean, I know it's
little things, but they do start to build up and
annoy you, don't you, But like the tipping at restaurants
twenty three minutes away from Sex News talks, there'd be
I'll tell you when we were playing Elton John later
(19:27):
in the show too. Right now, Callum Procter and Dnede
and Cullum. There's been some issues with water in parts
of Duned and what exactly.
Speaker 10 (19:34):
Yeah, problems for Port Charmer's residents, Ryan, and they're being
urged to use water wisely to avoid the introduction of
possible restrictions there the city councils, so they're investigating potential
causes for increased water demand in the area. Drinking water
levels being monitored, the local port charmers, treatment plants being
reactivated to cover and make sure there is sufficient treated
(19:56):
water available there. The Council's found several ex private networks
about working with owners to plug those problems. Meanwhile, residents
and businesses there who are aware of leaks are being
asked to report them to the council.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
All right, and how's your weather good today? Fine? And
twelve for Deneeda, brilliant, Thank you. Clariha was in christ
It's clear, good morning, Good morning. Now this I've been
following this story well from a distance, but Sumner's are
cave rock and the light mast is it? Are people
upset because it's bright or because it looks like a
Holy Cross?
Speaker 11 (20:27):
Oh well, it has caused a stir so, as you know,
many people following it. This has been going on for
a long long time for those in Sumner. For us,
we became aware of it last week when council opened
public submissions on the whole saga that is the cross.
Now the thing that public consultation involves is the brightness
of the lights, also the configuration of the lights and
(20:48):
the hours of which they are used. So initially we
were speaking a lot about the brightness of the lights
and concerned about it keeping residents awaken these sorts of things.
It turns out, as you say.
Speaker 12 (20:58):
That there is now a belief that this idea fear
of it being a likeness to a religious symbol or
a cross, is actually at the forefront of this argument.
So there are many members of the community upset about that.
The Sumner Community Residents Association chair Andrea Davis has been
on the phone with us. She says, because the master
sits above the high tide mark, it belongs in the public,
so it's only right that we voice concerns about it. However,
(21:19):
she does feel that the community are most upset about
the fact that there's a curiosity as to why the
lights themselves sit along the center and then horizontally across
like a cross instead of a nautical mast shape.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Honestly, okay, howse you wear they clear miserable today?
Speaker 12 (21:40):
Rain will clear to fine southwesternly is turning northerly only
ten degrees.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
All right, Thank you max Is and Wellington. Hey Max,
what happened to you on Friday?
Speaker 13 (21:49):
Technical glitch at my ends. But I'm shirking responsibility someone
else's fault.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Okay, that's good, just like a Wellingtonian exactly. Hey, go
time for Andrew Little. We've got campaign launch on the weekend.
Speaker 13 (22:04):
Yeah yeah, over the weekend. It was all very slick,
no big surprises as you'd expect. Even his main rival,
counselor Ray Hung was there speaking positively about the former
labor leader. Aside from the obvious better spending, transparency, collaboration
blah blah blah, a little once the Golden Mile thought
about more carefully whatever that means. Community things like we
(22:24):
go near house at the Botanical Gardens, Candala pool. Let's
spend on that, not massive blowout projects like the town hall.
Let's do things that are good for the community. But again,
full of generalisms. It's I suppose quite difficult to map
out a maryalty when you've got when you're gonna have
fifteen widows sitting around you at the table or wanting
their own thing. But a guy like Andrew Little, perhaps
(22:45):
a little plain and exciting, sensible, is what Wellington needs
right now.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Yeah, I think that's exactly what's going to happen in
Ragehang's seeing the running on them. Will wants to be depity. Well,
so you know, off there to suck up. How's the weather?
Speaker 13 (22:57):
Showers turning to rain later today. It wasn't the best weekend.
Hopefully Neva had a good time in the Capital. Southerly's
twelve the High Central brilliant.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Thank you, Max. Neva's here, did you? I did?
Speaker 14 (23:08):
I was at no Mutty Beach.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Oh beautiful, it was lovely.
Speaker 14 (23:12):
I mean it was raining, but I thought, no, that's okay.
Ye're not no, no, oh no, yes, you're a swim No,
I don't.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
I don't know how to swim. Actually, full disclosure.
Speaker 14 (23:25):
If I'm a Vicago people in a Vicago, we don't
know how to swim this. We don't have the climate.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
If I picked you up and put you in the water,
you were literally drown.
Speaker 14 (23:33):
Oh you're thinking about that?
Speaker 2 (23:34):
No, no, no, but does it not ski you? I
mean we're on an island, not.
Speaker 14 (23:38):
Really, because no, you know, I don't have any business
to go down there by the beach and dip my
toes in. Well, no, I would dip my toes in
and that would probably be it.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Do you know what, I'm a strong enough swimmer. I
could save both of them.
Speaker 14 (23:48):
Oh yeah, okay, yes, yes, oh no, that would be great.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
He expected the proposed conversion of an Auckland golf course
into wetland could drive down property prices.
Speaker 14 (23:59):
It was happen is that The Auckland Council says the
change would create better flood protection for the area. Southeby's
International Realty in Norseal Direct to Be Mackey says this
decrease could be between ten to fifteen percent on average
for Takapuna properties. He says, look in the US, having
a private golf course nearby, now you know that can
increase the house's value by about twenty five percent. That
(24:23):
value increase would be slightly smaller in Takapuna because it
would be a public course. Auckland Council says that the
Wetlands move it aims to protect property value prevent large
increases in insurance costs. So more and more on this debate.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
I think that's pretty funny. I mean, if you're weighing
up where to live and they said to you, look,
you can have a golf course, but your house might flood.
Speaker 14 (24:44):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
I think most sensible people would go, well, I'll go
somewhere else and play golf. Yes, absolutely. How's the weather Neihver.
Speaker 14 (24:52):
Tightley, cloudy, showers clearing, So that's good. Eighteen is a
high here in Auclifd brilliant.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Thank you very much. Have a great day, Andrew. Sorry.
Devin Gray is in the UK next Starma having a
meeting with the EU overnight tonight. Are they going to read?
Are they going to unbrick it?
Speaker 1 (25:08):
No?
Speaker 2 (25:09):
But what are they going to do?
Speaker 7 (25:10):
Then?
Speaker 1 (25:11):
International correspondence with insign Eye Insurance Peace of Mind for
New Zealand Business.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
News Talk DIDB. It is fourteen minutes away from sixth
Simeon Brown in just a few moments. Gavin Gray are
UK correspondent with US tonight evening his time, Gevin, good morning,
Hi there right now. So we've got this meeting between
the EU and the UK. It's a bilateral one, it's
post brick st and what are we going to get
out of it? Do you think?
Speaker 4 (25:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 15 (25:36):
I think it's going to be very very interesting. The
Government's got a very very fine line to tread here.
This is the first bilateral summit since Brexit. Described by
our Prime Minister as a really significant moment, described by
others les Kin on Europe as a time to really
watch the fine print of what might be agreed now.
Make no mistake, the EU is the UK's largest trading
(25:59):
part and many think that we need a reset of
relations since these sort of slightly dismistrusting Brexit period, and
it is thought that we're likely to see announcements of
trade and security tie ups, including British access to about
two hundred and seventy billion New Zealand dollars worth of
the EU Defense Fund in what could be a big
(26:22):
boost for UK defense companies. But there are also reports
that this could be an agreement on allowing travelers from
Britain to use these eGates, the electronic gates at European airports,
which currently they can't do, and also big question marks
about food exports imports. Are we going to be able
to cut through the huge amount of red tape that's
(26:43):
been added since Brexit, which so many farmers are complaining about.
And another thing that's been well mooted here is this
youth mobility scheme, where at the moment we have, of
course youngsters under the age of thirty from Australia and
New Zealand are how to come and work in the
UK for a year, maybe two years, depending on the agreement.
Nothing for the EU, so that may be up for
(27:04):
grabs as well. But plenty who voted for Brexit here
and a deeply untrusting of this government are looking at
the fine print of what's been agreed saying we don't
want Brexit by the back law.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Interesting, Gavin, thank you for that, Gavin Gray. Are you
you're a correspondent with us this morning? Just gone over
coming up to twelve minutes away from six. The Catholics
as well will be happy the first inauguration mass held
by Pope Leo overnight and he's talking about ukraineing justin
lasting piece ceter. It's interesting, isn't it, Because it doesn't
matter how you view and people view these two men
(27:35):
very very differently, the Pope and Donald Trump. It doesn't
matter how you view them or who you think might
be going to heaven in this case. What matters this
power and leverage, and Trump has more than the Pope
on Ukraine. He will be the arbiter of whether any
ceasefire has agreed to is just gone twelve away from
six Brian Bridge. So another pre budget announcement for US
(27:56):
one hundred and sixty four million dollars over four years
for five new twenty four seven urgent healthcare clinics. That's
forty one million dollars a year. Counties Monaco, fung To
a Palmston, North Totong and d'need and Health Minister Sime
and Brown with me this morning. Mini'ster, good morning, Good
morning Ryan. So will these areas get a new clinic?
Speaker 16 (28:15):
This will be about ensuring those communities have twenty four
to seven access to urgent and after ours care and health.
These animill grow through a procurement process. Most likely they'll
work with existing providers who may already be providing services,
say till eight o'clock or nine o'clock at night, and
look to extend those hours overnight to ensure that the
(28:38):
access to that service is there. It's for young parents
needing to have their children seen who come down sick.
It's about reducing pressure on emergency departments because we know
that around a third of patients who are turn up
at emergency departments are triage four or five, which are
lower acuity. Many of those can be seen in urgent
and after ours care clinics, so reducing pressure on hospitals,
(28:58):
providing access and supporting particularly those young families.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
So this is private clinics. We will pay to go
after hours if there was enough of a demand, wouldn't
maybe open now already.
Speaker 16 (29:10):
Look, this is about providing access and ensuring that access
is there and ensuring that people can receive that care.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
So when you pay them to stay open, basically even
if they're making a loss, you'll cover.
Speaker 16 (29:23):
It, that's right. It'll be about making sure that there
is access to these services. There will also be support
for people who do need that support to ensure they can.
You know, for lower income families, community services can't. But
the cost of the system is substantially cheaper if someone
is seen in primary care than if they turn up
to an emergency department. The cost difference is somewhere between
(29:45):
like a thousand dollars eight hundreds of thousand dollars if
someone turns up to an emergency department, whereas it's around
one hundred and fifty to two hundred dollars per person
if they turn up to an after ours care clinics.
So the cost of the systems a lot longer, it's
closer to home, it's more convenient. That's what we're trying
to know.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Well, the friend of mine is a doctor. He works
in an emergency department. He said, the problem is that
you've got people who come to the emergency department go
there because they know eventually they will be seen and
they don't have to pay anything. He said, you give
in the emergency department waiting room. You give people a
voucher that says, hey, go to this after ours clinic.
They can see you and you and you won't have
(30:22):
to pay because you were giving you this voucher. They
don't move because they are already in a queue. How
do you know you can only do so much?
Speaker 16 (30:31):
Well. One of the challenges though, in many communities across
the country, the access to those services is quite limited
in terms of the hours. So, for example, the Middlemoor
Hospital emergency department is one of our busiest emergency departments.
There is no after Ours twenty four to seven clinic
in counties Manicau. So that's what we're doing here making
sure there isn't after ours clinic in counties manicaal So
(30:52):
there is an ability for those patients to be seen
elsewhere in the community.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
But private one open at night. Yeah, well that's right.
Speaker 16 (31:00):
So that's what this is all about, making sure there's
more access and supporting reducing pressure on the Regency Department.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Had one very very quick question. Have you had anyone
or any unions or anyone approach you about this new
pay parody stuff that you know the potential for a
deal being lodged or a case being lodged.
Speaker 16 (31:17):
Look, though the legislation is very clear individuals unions are
able to lodge claims. There's a legislated process around that
and if parties can't agree, they can go to the
Employment Relations Authority.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
Thanks for time, minister, appreciate it. Simmy and Brown and
the Health Minister with us this morning, just gone eight
minutes away from six News Talk saidb News.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
And Views you trust to start your day's early editioned
with Ryan Bridge and One Room Make your Property Surge,
Simple News Talks.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Thanks the Sex News Talk zib I forgot to tell
you why Elton John was so upset, called the Starman
government a bunch of disgraceful losers. This morning it's all
over AI and there's a vote happening and everything. Well
there's proposals that the government's making over AI and copyright.
Speaker 6 (32:01):
Have Listen to him, I think the government are just big,
absolute losers and I'm very angry about it, as you can.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Tell, yees. So he says that poor artists won't be
able to protect their work. Rich artists like him will,
but he's going into bat for the poorer ones. Five
away from six now, Mike said, Mike, good morning.
Speaker 9 (32:18):
That's before we get to the white genocide from Elon
Musk and his AI up on that and so you're
just tapping in questions and it comes back on as
white genocide going on and so okay, and they had
to admit over the weekend that that's humans and the
problem with AI as everyone goes, oh, it must be right,
but it's not the humans in the background.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Well, it's a it's a sort of a mass scoop
of what we all think or people write exactly. So
the Warrior I watched your worries on Saturday. Did you
enjoy that? I really did, really one of the best
sides in the comp But I did think, and I
said to my mum, who was staying with me, the refs,
it's like that outsourced everything and everything goes to the
big that's been going on for a while.
Speaker 9 (32:56):
The problem with league, Just to bring you up to speed,
the refs broadly are useless and have been for a
long period of time, so they rely on the bunker,
is what they call it.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Why have a riff? Then, very good question. Get rid
of that. Why have very good question?
Speaker 9 (33:11):
So anyway, the problem was, and most people have seen
this two vas chick drop the ball, knocked it on,
obviously knocked it on quite like really obviously knocked it on.
Referee missed it. And my argument is the referee was
asleep at the wheel because he knows he's got the bunker.
When when and don't go to the bunker.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Now, Fisher Harris, I'm sorry, but that was quite No,
it wasn't. It was if he's been tackled, you would
expect him to be falling towards you. You don't put
your shoulder in the ways.
Speaker 9 (33:35):
This is split second stuff, Ryan, This is like this
is this isn't coming at you for three and a
half minutes to think about this is like bang, you're there.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
He's waiting.
Speaker 9 (33:43):
Guy falls in front of them, runs into.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
His shoulder, but he's put he's tackled in front of
the next.
Speaker 9 (33:48):
Next thing, you know, you're off the field. You've got
twelve left and there everyone'm running rampant scoring tries.
Speaker 2 (33:53):

got a whiff of that about it. We'll talk to
him just before six this morning. Orkley FC and the Warriors.
Great weekend for both of them. Of course Awkley FC
now coming home to Auckland, so what do they need

(00:33):
We'll talk to Andrew Alison in a few minutes time,
and we're going to the UK with Gavin Gray for
some Well, there's a lot going on there actually, including
Elton John having a massive spray at the government, calling
Keir Starmer and his lot absolute losers. Seven after five
the Agenda, Monday, the nineteenth of May. Two people have
(00:53):
been killed at least nineteen injured. This after that Mexican
Navy training ship crashed into New York's City Brooklyn Bridge.
Police say the ship, which had two hundred and seventy
seven people on board, lost power was forced into the bridge.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
You're going to have a lot of investigative agencies. They're
going to be taking a fine tooth calm to figure
out exactly what led to this issue here and with
this mechanical issue, they're going to dig deep.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
What was it that failed? How did it fail?
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Why did it fail?
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Pope Leo's having his first inauguration mass He's had a
meeting with Zelenski as well. He's talking about marginalization of
the poor and autocracy.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
We still see too much discord caused by hatred that
exploits the resources.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Meanwhile, Trump is going to pick up the phone and
he is going to speak with Putin by tomorrow. So
I'm by the timing with you on ed tomorrow. We
should have had a phone conversation between Persian and Trump.
This is about Indian the war in the Ukraine. Of course,
he posted this to his truth social account, saying he'll
then speak to Zelensky and the leaders of some NATO countries.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
Days ago, mister Trump had voice that he is growing
skeptical of a direct talks between Ukrainians and Russians, yielding
result that he believes that no peace deal will happen
unless he sits down with the Russian leader himself and
the Kremlin had said that they are interested in this summit,
but they would require a careful planning.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Eldon John really upset at the UK government. This is
all over copyright laws.
Speaker 6 (02:35):
It's really disrespectful, it's really disheartening. I want the government
to see since I want it to come back on
our side.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
And that is your agenda for your Monday morning, nine
minutes half to five.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Ryan Bridge on Early Edition with one roof make your
Property search simple used talg Zibby.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
It's just a couple of things for Simeon Brown, who'll
be on the show before six this morning. This announcement yesterday,
it sounds great and they always do. But after ours
an urgent care one hundred and sixty four million dollars
over four years, that's forty one million dollars a year.
Sounds good, sounds great, But Devil's always in the detail
with this stuff. So he says in the release, the
(03:16):
funding will establish a new twenty four hour urgent care
service identified for counties Monaco. Okay, that sounds to me.
You know, I'm just a layman, but that sounds to
me like counties Monaco. You're getting a new twenty four
hour urgent and care service. Great, however, then says it
will also support new twenty four hour urgent care services
(03:38):
identified for Fungaday, Palmeston, North Totonga and Dunedin. Now support
and identified are some pretty massive qualifiers. So are they
going to get them or not? We'll ask if you're
in any of those areas this morning, fung Outa, Palmeston,
North Totonger or Duneed and good morning you'll be wanting
to know. We'll ask the minister for six. You don't
have to look far, and we should grateful in New
(04:01):
Zealand that we have relatively stable democracy. You don't have
to look far to see how unstable the world is,
how off it's kilter the world is. Millions of Europeans
are going to the polls today. Then they're not doing
very well at one holding elections and then two staying
in power. You've got Romania, Poland and Portuguese going today.
(04:22):
You've got in Romania and I told you about this
a couple of months ago. The right wing nationalist guy
he won the first round of voting earlier this month.
But remember the last election at the end of last year.
They had to annul that one because of Russian interference,
so they had one go didn't work. Now they're having
the second go Portugal their third general election in barely
(04:45):
three years. They've got a minority government just keeps falling
over because the political landscape is so fragmented. This is emigration,
think housing, think constant living. You get these minority governments
and they just collapse. The funniest part is not funny,
but it's sort of funny. The funniest part about this
is that the polls, if the polls are to be believed,
(05:05):
they're going to end up with the exact same result
that they have now. So after everyone going and voting,
they will get exactly what they had yesterday. That's what
the polls are telling us anyway. And then of course
Poland's going this is the presidential election, so you know Tusk,
who's the prime minister. You've got polls going to the
polls to elect a new president. Will they stick with
(05:27):
the European vision or will they go with this sort
of Trump admirer Candid that that's the question for them
this morning. Gavin Gray in the UK for US later
in the program to eleven after five.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
The first word on the news of the Day, Early
edition with Ryan Bridge and one Room to make your
property Surgeon Symbol News Talks five fourteen.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Sir Thomas calling on the Herald this morning sums it
up pretty well. So we know we had two point
four million dollars in operating spending for this budget that's
coming on Thursday, Nichola Willis's second that's been half to
one point three billion. Half of that's already been committed,
a new funding for medicines to farmac, and then you've
got all of the announcements. We had another one yesterday,
the pre budget announcements. You know with the twelve billion
(06:10):
over four years on defense, you've got the student attendance
one hundred and forty million, you've got one hundred million
over four years on student under achievement in maths, you
name it, you name it. And they've basically promised more
than they are take, promised to spend more than they
are currently able to under that operating allowance, which basically
means one thing. But cuts are coming. The question, of
(06:31):
course with Thursday is from where fourteen after five Brian Bridge,
So let's talk more about the budget now. So it
will be a highest spending of any government in history,
borrowing is still high. Minister's going to have to make counts.
We don't quite know where. From Business Central CEO Simon
Archus of me this morning, Simon, good morning.
Speaker 7 (06:48):
Good morning, Ryan.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Very well. Now you're in Wellington. Where would you where
would you cut? Where's the fat?
Speaker 7 (06:55):
Look, there isn't much, Shannon. I think that's the tyrope
the government's walking. How do you bou do you balance
some fiscal restraints, you know, keep not spending with the
reality of needing to boost the economy. It's a really
difficult question. And as you say, a lot of budgets,
big headline items are known, so I'm not quite sure.
Wellington certainly has had public sector cuts of course, and
(07:18):
suffered as a consequence of that. So let's hope there's
not too much more that space could well be then.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Yeah, it's interesting. It's an interesting place for Wellington to be,
right because the rest of the country is going, ah,
just cut them, slash them, burn them, and you and
the businesses in Wellington are actually the ones that feel
that right.
Speaker 7 (07:36):
Well absolutely, And what's really interesting about the direct government
spending into Wellington. It accounts for about twelve percent of
the GDP and while that doesn't sound like a huge amount,
that's before you've got all the extra professional services, support
services where a civil servant goes and buys a a
sandwich at once. But it's a big impact. And if
you compared to the rest of the country, that's only
(07:57):
about four percent, so it's a big It is a
big chunk of our economy and I think that's what's
really made it tough in the recent times.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Infrastructure Simon. We're hearing about plans, we're hearing about cash.
Has anyone actually seen any money yet?
Speaker 7 (08:12):
One of the things that is a concern is infrastructure
certainly is high on the agenda, but we need to
see that stuff starting. We need to see the green
grow button with a lot of that and that's a
big thing for Wellington. And of course the other thing
that is a little bit of a bright spot is
probably the film spend and crewdive industry spend that down
(08:33):
here will have an impact too.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Hey, what a business is thing? If she was to
come out on Thursday Nichola Willison say I want you
to increase your employee, can we save a contribution? What
do you reckon?
Speaker 7 (08:44):
Businesses would say, Well, I think I think this is
really interesting and a lot of a government if you
think about fiscal restraint but wanting to boost the economy.
If you think about questions around key we Saver, you
say we business largely without the trajector, but the john
individual businesses or the impact on businesses as the days
(09:07):
and weeks go on has been really tough. I think
I think employer contribution to here we savers something got
to look at, and we've got to look at how
to make sure that in the future people will be
more secure in their retirement and less dependent on the government.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Simon, I appreciate your time this morning. Thank you very much.
Simon Archis who is with us from Wellington Business Central CEO.
It is seventeen after five Andrew Ordison next, Ryan Fox
tearing off.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Get ahead of the headlines on early edition with Ryan
Bridge and one roof Make your property search simple news Dogs.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
That'd be five nineteen So the old Western Springs and
Auckland for those who know, big battle going on between
the x Abs over who will take control of it?
You know what will happen to it, what will the
future of it? Best you've got this morning, sir Brian
Williams coming out with his vision for a community solution.
So you're looking at a five to eight thousand six
stadium that could cater for club sport, school finals, competitions,
(10:05):
your community tournaments, all that kind of stuff. Nice stuff.
And then you've got on the other side, over a
very high fence, you've got Allie Williams and his crew
and they are promising twenty five thousand capacity concert venue,
eight indoor basketball courts, indoor six paddle courts, four outdoor
training fields, five hospitality establishments. That's how they make their money.
(10:27):
So your coffee, where you watching that sport? And three
hundred million dollar price tag but it's all privately funded.
Brian leashed you. But the council will have to pay
for that, won't they? So whose side are you on?
Twenty after five Bridge Andrew Ortison Here was fot good
morning Greeting's Ryan? Which side of the fence would you sit?
Speaker 8 (10:46):
Geez, well hard to go past b G to be honest,
he's a wily character. Yeah, Hi, I tak you boy though, Yeah, yeah,
just this year numbers et cetera. Yeah, yeah, always got
a lot of backing in that part of the world.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
He does and he's a great man. So in the
FC they've had a win, great and it's it's second
league to come.
Speaker 8 (11:07):
Yep, so one up literally over over Melbourn victory. So yeah,
coming to back to Auckland for this, you know, speaking
of the year that the Ellie Williams et cetera, and
that the band with the Oakland FC. What I mean,
the season continues to go for strength to strength. Almost
took it to nil. I think that moreno strike just
late in the game hit both goalposts and abounded away.
(11:30):
But yeah, the logan Rogers is striking the sixty fourth
minute that was enough to take them through. So yeah,
it's they're just that one game away from making the Grand.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
And it's points across both games as yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:41):
Yeah, so home and away and then established with you
you you go.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Through hopefully we'll get the final one of the PACIFICA
has been burning the blues. That was quite cool.
Speaker 8 (11:50):
I just think that's that's what makes the rugby, that's
what makes the competition, if you like. It's just so
long that we've been waiting for this for this to happen,
and that's just I think it's wonderful for the for
the sport as a whole. Arlie Savvy is always already
the player of the season for Super Rugby as a
result of the voting process.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
But just leading them from the front end. Gee, they were.
Speaker 8 (12:09):
They were a compelling watch, right I thought. And to
beat the Blues defending champions just an in Auckland contest
as it was at North Harbor there.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
But what a.
Speaker 8 (12:20):
Remarkable showing from wider pacifica so into the top six
into the playoff spots, beating the Blues out for the
time being. Blues with the buy this week and then
into the final round.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Had my parents staying with me on the weekend and
Dad was saying, oh, ye, the Hurricanes could get into
the finals. Is he dreaming possibly? Yeah, they're not doing that.
I mean they're doing okay now, but they in the
last few weeks, but they haven't been doing that well.
Speaker 8 (12:44):
Ask yeah, yeah, yeah, So we'll see what happens all right. Yeah,
he's a dreams coming down to their day.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Ryan Fox Fox has already made his dreams come true
this morning. He's in the final round ten tend to
five this morning.
Speaker 8 (12:56):
Yes, I've just been watching it before I came in here.
He has part of the Furst, so still sitting in
that year of seventeenth, he's three under overall, but it's
going to take a lot to haul in Scottie Schiffley here,
number one golf from the world Ruyne and pretty much
at the top of his game. He's eleven under, so
it's going to require something pretty remarkable from Fox. But
(13:17):
then again, if he holds where he is, he is
going to get a terrific paycheck. So yeah, continuing that
form that he had from what we saw go earlier
on with his first victory on the PGA to a
Moodle Beach Classic and he took it into the first
round with the four under head of what an even
par around in a one over round.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
So you just interesting to see what he produces a
tall order. Yeah, I think so. I think so. But
like the Hurricane, it's just.
Speaker 8 (13:43):
If you go and where Fox is going though, that's
just that's just a remarkable achievement in itself. So you know,
to hold that to a card for another two years,
the peace of mind from that that's.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Really the bigger win. Pretty special, isn't it. It is
good to see your Andrew right hearing from me throughout
the morning, forwards. Andrew Ortison was sport twenty four minutes

your hobbies, what color yourundies are? What would you say?
(14:35):
You would tell that person to promptly buger off, wouldn't you?
And yet, for some random reason, when a random business
asks you this stuff while you're buying a shampoo or
a computer mouse on the internet, we happily give it away,
We hand it over, we pay for our loot using
probably a credit card with a password, and then we
think nothing more of it and go about our day.
(14:58):
And the reason we do this is because we're asked
to do it. And we often don't have much choice,
you know, when you don't answer those questions with the
asterisks on them, and you can't go to step two
even if you're paying for this thing. So the Privacy
Commissioner has a new report out, and it's basically a
middle finger from us to big tech on data. Two
thirds two thirds of us say projecting our personal information
(15:22):
is now a major concern in our lives is a
major concern, presumably up there with death and a mortgage.
Eighty percent say they want more control over it, and
I agree with them. Honestly, Why does my hairdresser need
to know my date of birth when I'm booking an appointment?
Does it tell them how thin my hair might be
at a certain age? Do they need my address to
(15:44):
ship the hair back to me after they've cut it
and swept it off the floor. Do they need my
surname because it might denote the frailty in my follicles
passed down through generations. No, it's because they can ask
for it, so they do. Presumably they're making money off
it somehow, I don't know. Honestly, my online supermarket and
electricity provider know more intimate details about me than some
(16:08):
of my exes. We regularly reveal more personal details to
countdown than we would on a first date. Companies here
can basically ask you anything. You often have to answer.
They must take reasonable steps to keep this a secret.
But how long until the hack has come? And then
it's all out there and it's all out the window,
(16:29):
and it's all on the internet. Right, everyone knows that happens.
The EU has quite strict rules. Businesses must give you
the option of rejecting cookies. You notice when you go
on a website in the EU, you can decline the
cookies informed consent over there only asking for the stuff
related to what you're buying or doing, and you have
(16:49):
the right to go in and delete or change the
information that companies hold on you. I know we can't
do that, can we? You could avoid the internet all together?
Of course I can hear what you're saying, but that
train has sort of left the station. So can I suggest, Kishi?
Can I ask a question to businesses this morning? Can
(17:09):
you please stop asking us so many damned, irrelevant and
annoying questions?
Speaker 9 (17:17):
Ryan Bridge, thank you very much.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
I would appreciate it. Twenty nine minutes after five, you're
on News Talks there b our reporters around the country shortly,
and we'll get to Gavin Gray in the UK. Big
meeting between the EU and Starmer overnight.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Well on your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early edition
with Ryan Bridge and One Roof to make your Property
search simple, Youth Talk said, be.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Good morning, twenty four minutes away from six News Talks B.
We're going to talk to Sime and Brown just before
six on the health after ours care announcements yesterday, are
they really what they see? And we'll get to Gavin
Gray in the UK shortly. I just want to say
there's a lot of support for my idea of basically
sharpening up the rules. When you do something, buy something
online and you guess asked one thousand and one questions,
(18:21):
they shouldn't be able to ask you a thousand and
one questions about your you know what color you underwear are?
David says Ryan. I agree. We just want to grab
the milk and go. Sometimes when we're at the supermarket,
not feel like we're filling out a tax return at
the checkout. This is so true when a quick purchase
turns into an interrogation about our phone number, email life
goals and whether they're the like to round it up
(18:43):
for charity. It starts to feel like a transaction, less
like a transaction, more like an unexpected therapy session. I agree.
And what's with those machines that countdown? You know? They
say on the left hand side you've got a machine
card only it says you know, and then your cash
ones are labeled separately. Okay, So I go with the
card one and then you tap cap, swipe, swape, swampe
(19:05):
bing ban bang, off you go, and then it says
how would you like to pay? You already told me
how the option there is one, So just let me
tap the card and go. I mean, I know it's
little things, but they do start to build up and
annoy you, don't you, But like the tipping at restaurants
twenty three minutes away from Sex News talks, there'd be
I'll tell you when we were playing Elton John later
(19:27):
in the show too. Right now, Callum Procter and Dnede
and Cullum. There's been some issues with water in parts
of Duned and what exactly.
Speaker 10 (19:34):
Yeah, problems for Port Charmer's residents, Ryan, and they're being
urged to use water wisely to avoid the introduction of
possible restrictions there the city councils, so they're investigating potential
causes for increased water demand in the area. Drinking water
levels being monitored, the local port charmers, treatment plants being
reactivated to cover and make sure there is sufficient treated
(19:56):
water available there. The Council's found several ex private networks
about working with owners to plug those problems. Meanwhile, residents
and businesses there who are aware of leaks are being
asked to report them to the council.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
All right, and how's your weather good today? Fine? And
twelve for Deneeda, brilliant, Thank you. Clariha was in christ
It's clear, good morning, Good morning. Now this I've been
following this story well from a distance, but Sumner's are
cave rock and the light mast is it? Are people
upset because it's bright or because it looks like a
Holy Cross?
Speaker 11 (20:27):
Oh well, it has caused a stir so, as you know,
many people following it. This has been going on for
a long long time for those in Sumner. For us,
we became aware of it last week when council opened
public submissions on the whole saga that is the cross.
Now the thing that public consultation involves is the brightness
of the lights, also the configuration of the lights and
(20:48):
the hours of which they are used. So initially we
were speaking a lot about the brightness of the lights
and concerned about it keeping residents awaken these sorts of things.
It turns out, as you say.
Speaker 12 (20:58):
That there is now a belief that this idea fear
of it being a likeness to a religious symbol or
a cross, is actually at the forefront of this argument.
So there are many members of the community upset about that.
The Sumner Community Residents Association chair Andrea Davis has been
on the phone with us. She says, because the master
sits above the high tide mark, it belongs in the public,
so it's only right that we voice concerns about it. However,
(21:19):
she does feel that the community are most upset about
the fact that there's a curiosity as to why the
lights themselves sit along the center and then horizontally across
like a cross instead of a nautical mast shape.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Honestly, okay, howse you wear they clear miserable today?
Speaker 12 (21:40):
Rain will clear to fine southwesternly is turning northerly only
ten degrees.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
All right, Thank you max Is and Wellington. Hey Max,
what happened to you on Friday?
Speaker 13 (21:49):
Technical glitch at my ends. But I'm shirking responsibility someone
else's fault.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Okay, that's good, just like a Wellingtonian exactly. Hey, go
time for Andrew Little. We've got campaign launch on the weekend.
Speaker 13 (22:04):
Yeah yeah, over the weekend. It was all very slick,
no big surprises as you'd expect. Even his main rival,
counselor Ray Hung was there speaking positively about the former
labor leader. Aside from the obvious better spending, transparency, collaboration
blah blah blah, a little once the Golden Mile thought
about more carefully whatever that means. Community things like we
(22:24):
go near house at the Botanical Gardens, Candala pool. Let's
spend on that, not massive blowout projects like the town hall.
Let's do things that are good for the community. But again,
full of generalisms. It's I suppose quite difficult to map
out a maryalty when you've got when you're gonna have
fifteen widows sitting around you at the table or wanting
their own thing. But a guy like Andrew Little, perhaps
(22:45):
a little plain and exciting, sensible, is what Wellington needs
right now.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Yeah, I think that's exactly what's going to happen in
Ragehang's seeing the running on them. Will wants to be depity. Well,
so you know, off there to suck up. How's the weather?
Speaker 13 (22:57):
Showers turning to rain later today. It wasn't the best weekend.
Hopefully Neva had a good time in the Capital. Southerly's
twelve the High Central brilliant.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Thank you, Max. Neva's here, did you? I did?
Speaker 14 (23:08):
I was at no Mutty Beach.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Oh beautiful, it was lovely.
Speaker 14 (23:12):
I mean it was raining, but I thought, no, that's okay.
Ye're not no, no, oh no, yes, you're a swim No,
I don't.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
I don't know how to swim. Actually, full disclosure.
Speaker 14 (23:25):
If I'm a Vicago people in a Vicago, we don't
know how to swim this. We don't have the climate.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
If I picked you up and put you in the water,
you were literally drown.
Speaker 14 (23:33):
Oh you're thinking about that?
Speaker 2 (23:34):
No, no, no, but does it not ski you? I
mean we're on an island, not.
Speaker 14 (23:38):
Really, because no, you know, I don't have any business
to go down there by the beach and dip my
toes in. Well, no, I would dip my toes in
and that would probably be it.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Do you know what, I'm a strong enough swimmer. I
could save both of them.
Speaker 14 (23:48):
Oh yeah, okay, yes, yes, oh no, that would be great.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
He expected the proposed conversion of an Auckland golf course
into wetland could drive down property prices.
Speaker 14 (23:59):
It was happen is that The Auckland Council says the
change would create better flood protection for the area. Southeby's
International Realty in Norseal Direct to Be Mackey says this
decrease could be between ten to fifteen percent on average
for Takapuna properties. He says, look in the US, having
a private golf course nearby, now you know that can
increase the house's value by about twenty five percent. That
(24:23):
value increase would be slightly smaller in Takapuna because it
would be a public course. Auckland Council says that the
Wetlands move it aims to protect property value prevent large
increases in insurance costs. So more and more on this debate.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
I think that's pretty funny. I mean, if you're weighing
up where to live and they said to you, look,
you can have a golf course, but your house might flood.
Speaker 14 (24:44):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
I think most sensible people would go, well, I'll go
somewhere else and play golf. Yes, absolutely. How's the weather Neihver.
Speaker 14 (24:52):
Tightley, cloudy, showers clearing, So that's good. Eighteen is a
high here in Auclifd brilliant.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Thank you very much. Have a great day, Andrew. Sorry.
Devin Gray is in the UK next Starma having a
meeting with the EU overnight tonight. Are they going to read?
Are they going to unbrick it?
Speaker 1 (25:08):
No?
Speaker 2 (25:09):
But what are they going to do?
Speaker 7 (25:10):
Then?
Speaker 1 (25:11):
International correspondence with insign Eye Insurance Peace of Mind for
New Zealand Business.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
News Talk DIDB. It is fourteen minutes away from sixth
Simeon Brown in just a few moments. Gavin Gray are
UK correspondent with US tonight evening his time, Gevin, good morning,
Hi there right now. So we've got this meeting between
the EU and the UK. It's a bilateral one, it's
post brick st and what are we going to get
out of it? Do you think?
Speaker 4 (25:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 15 (25:36):
I think it's going to be very very interesting. The
Government's got a very very fine line to tread here.
This is the first bilateral summit since Brexit. Described by
our Prime Minister as a really significant moment, described by
others les Kin on Europe as a time to really
watch the fine print of what might be agreed now.
Make no mistake, the EU is the UK's largest trading
(25:59):
part and many think that we need a reset of
relations since these sort of slightly dismistrusting Brexit period, and
it is thought that we're likely to see announcements of
trade and security tie ups, including British access to about
two hundred and seventy billion New Zealand dollars worth of
the EU Defense Fund in what could be a big
(26:22):
boost for UK defense companies. But there are also reports
that this could be an agreement on allowing travelers from
Britain to use these eGates, the electronic gates at European airports,
which currently they can't do, and also big question marks
about food exports imports. Are we going to be able
to cut through the huge amount of red tape that's
(26:43):
been added since Brexit, which so many farmers are complaining about.
And another thing that's been well mooted here is this
youth mobility scheme, where at the moment we have, of
course youngsters under the age of thirty from Australia and
New Zealand are how to come and work in the
UK for a year, maybe two years, depending on the agreement.
Nothing for the EU, so that may be up for
(27:04):
grabs as well. But plenty who voted for Brexit here
and a deeply untrusting of this government are looking at
the fine print of what's been agreed saying we don't
want Brexit by the back law.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Interesting, Gavin, thank you for that, Gavin Gray. Are you
you're a correspondent with us this morning? Just gone over
coming up to twelve minutes away from six. The Catholics
as well will be happy the first inauguration mass held
by Pope Leo overnight and he's talking about ukraineing justin
lasting piece ceter. It's interesting, isn't it, Because it doesn't
matter how you view and people view these two men
(27:35):
very very differently, the Pope and Donald Trump. It doesn't
matter how you view them or who you think might
be going to heaven in this case. What matters this
power and leverage, and Trump has more than the Pope
on Ukraine. He will be the arbiter of whether any
ceasefire has agreed to is just gone twelve away from
six Brian Bridge. So another pre budget announcement for US
(27:56):
one hundred and sixty four million dollars over four years
for five new twenty four seven urgent healthcare clinics. That's
forty one million dollars a year. Counties Monaco, fung To
a Palmston, North Totong and d'need and Health Minister Sime
and Brown with me this morning. Mini'ster, good morning, Good
morning Ryan. So will these areas get a new clinic?
Speaker 16 (28:15):
This will be about ensuring those communities have twenty four
to seven access to urgent and after ours care and health.
These animill grow through a procurement process. Most likely they'll
work with existing providers who may already be providing services,
say till eight o'clock or nine o'clock at night, and
look to extend those hours overnight to ensure that the
(28:38):
access to that service is there. It's for young parents
needing to have their children seen who come down sick.
It's about reducing pressure on emergency departments because we know
that around a third of patients who are turn up
at emergency departments are triage four or five, which are
lower acuity. Many of those can be seen in urgent
and after ours care clinics, so reducing pressure on hospitals,
(28:58):
providing access and supporting particularly those young families.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
So this is private clinics. We will pay to go
after hours if there was enough of a demand, wouldn't
maybe open now already.
Speaker 16 (29:10):
Look, this is about providing access and ensuring that access
is there and ensuring that people can receive that care.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
So when you pay them to stay open, basically even
if they're making a loss, you'll cover.
Speaker 16 (29:23):
It, that's right. It'll be about making sure that there
is access to these services. There will also be support
for people who do need that support to ensure they can.
You know, for lower income families, community services can't. But
the cost of the system is substantially cheaper if someone
is seen in primary care than if they turn up
to an emergency department. The cost difference is somewhere between
(29:45):
like a thousand dollars eight hundreds of thousand dollars if
someone turns up to an emergency department, whereas it's around
one hundred and fifty to two hundred dollars per person
if they turn up to an after ours care clinics.
So the cost of the systems a lot longer, it's
closer to home, it's more convenient. That's what we're trying
to know.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Well, the friend of mine is a doctor. He works
in an emergency department. He said, the problem is that
you've got people who come to the emergency department go
there because they know eventually they will be seen and
they don't have to pay anything. He said, you give
in the emergency department waiting room. You give people a
voucher that says, hey, go to this after ours clinic.
They can see you and you and you won't have
(30:22):
to pay because you were giving you this voucher. They
don't move because they are already in a queue. How
do you know you can only do so much?
Speaker 16 (30:31):
Well. One of the challenges though, in many communities across
the country, the access to those services is quite limited
in terms of the hours. So, for example, the Middlemoor
Hospital emergency department is one of our busiest emergency departments.
There is no after Ours twenty four to seven clinic
in counties Manicau. So that's what we're doing here making
sure there isn't after ours clinic in counties manicaal So
(30:52):
there is an ability for those patients to be seen
elsewhere in the community.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
But private one open at night. Yeah, well that's right.
Speaker 16 (31:00):
So that's what this is all about, making sure there's
more access and supporting reducing pressure on the Regency Department.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Had one very very quick question. Have you had anyone
or any unions or anyone approach you about this new
pay parody stuff that you know the potential for a
deal being lodged or a case being lodged.
Speaker 16 (31:17):
Look, though the legislation is very clear individuals unions are
able to lodge claims. There's a legislated process around that
and if parties can't agree, they can go to the
Employment Relations Authority.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
Thanks for time, minister, appreciate it. Simmy and Brown and
the Health Minister with us this morning, just gone eight
minutes away from six News Talk saidb News.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
And Views you trust to start your day's early editioned
with Ryan Bridge and One Room Make your Property Surge,
Simple News Talks.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Thanks the Sex News Talk zib I forgot to tell
you why Elton John was so upset, called the Starman
government a bunch of disgraceful losers. This morning it's all
over AI and there's a vote happening and everything. Well
there's proposals that the government's making over AI and copyright.
Speaker 6 (32:01):
Have Listen to him, I think the government are just big,
absolute losers and I'm very angry about it, as you can.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Tell, yees. So he says that poor artists won't be
able to protect their work. Rich artists like him will,
but he's going into bat for the poorer ones. Five
away from six now, Mike said, Mike, good morning.
Speaker 9 (32:18):
That's before we get to the white genocide from Elon
Musk and his AI up on that and so you're
just tapping in questions and it comes back on as
white genocide going on and so okay, and they had
to admit over the weekend that that's humans and the
problem with AI as everyone goes, oh, it must be right,
but it's not the humans in the background.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Well, it's a it's a sort of a mass scoop
of what we all think or people write exactly. So
the Warrior I watched your worries on Saturday. Did you
enjoy that? I really did, really one of the best
sides in the comp But I did think, and I
said to my mum, who was staying with me, the refs,
it's like that outsourced everything and everything goes to the
big that's been going on for a while.
Speaker 9 (32:56):
The problem with league, Just to bring you up to speed,
the refs broadly are useless and have been for a
long period of time, so they rely on the bunker,
is what they call it.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Why have a riff? Then, very good question. Get rid
of that. Why have very good question?
Speaker 9 (33:11):
So anyway, the problem was, and most people have seen
this two vas chick drop the ball, knocked it on,
obviously knocked it on quite like really obviously knocked it on.
Referee missed it. And my argument is the referee was
asleep at the wheel because he knows he's got the bunker.
When when and don't go to the bunker.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Now, Fisher Harris, I'm sorry, but that was quite No,
it wasn't. It was if he's been tackled, you would
expect him to be falling towards you. You don't put
your shoulder in the ways.
Speaker 9 (33:35):
This is split second stuff, Ryan, This is like this
is this isn't coming at you for three and a
half minutes to think about this is like bang, you're there.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
He's waiting.
Speaker 9 (33:43):
Guy falls in front of them, runs into.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
His shoulder, but he's put he's tackled in front of
the next.
Speaker 9 (33:48):
Next thing, you know, you're off the field. You've got
twelve left and there everyone'm running rampant scoring tries.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
I think we're gonna have to see this under the bunker.
Makee we But we won and we're second. Yeah, and
that's quick. Have a great day, everybody. Mike is with
you next. I will see you tomorrow talking.
