Mike's Minute: My thoughts on Luxon and the C-listers

The Mike Hosking Breakfast ·

2024/06/19

On the fringes of the Prime Minister's Japan trip are two stories. The first is the plane that needs replacing and the second is C-listers. I very much doubt whether anyone who matters in Japan really shifted their thinking about New Zealand over such frippery. The plane is the more serious story, and needs addressing, and if any good comes out of a bad situation it might just be that things have got so comical, so third world, that we might actually get around to addressing the problem. Clearly

The Government's keeping possible changes to the electric vehicle scheme on the downlow. Some in the sector are frustrated only a handful of groups have been consulted but Simeon Brown says this isn't the case. The Transport Minister had attempted and failed to urgently repeal the Clean Car Standard on Budget night. Now the legislation's before the House. Brown told Mike Hosking that it's better this is resolved by a minister as opposed to Parliament or the public. He says the standard has

The Climate Minister promises he's focused on a 'credible' carbon credit market after yesterday's auction came up empty. Not one unit was bought out of 3.5 million available. Questions have been raised about the price of the credits and the gap between demand and supply.

Boeing's CEO has never spoken to any of the whistleblowers accusing the company of safety issues. The aerospace manufacturer is being questioned in the US Senate over incidents and allegations the company has had this year. Ex-employees allege the company has been cutting corners, hiding evidence from regulators, and skipping safety inspections.

The irony is growing greater by the day. What to do with China? The Premier has been in New Zealand and Australia this past week. We rolled out the red carpet, they announced a visa deal for travellers and they also wanted us to put our differences aside. The differences were more pronounced in Australia. When Scott Morrison asked for an inquiry into the origins of Covid the Chinese went nuts, hit the tariff lever and punished Australia for a number of years on beef, and barley, and

A former Cabinet Minister is unconvinced parliamentary security staff should have the power to arrest. Speaker Gerry Brownlee suggests a security boost is needed for Members of Parliament and is expecting advice on the relationship between Parliament's own security and Police. Threats to MPs have increased in recent years. Political commentator Peter Dunne told Mike Hosking that you have to draw a line between protecting privacy and the public's right to have access.

The state of New Zealand's transport is becoming embarrassing according to a public transit advocate. The business case for two new Interislander ferries suggests maintenance costs for the current fleet will continue to rise and could soon reach $65 million a year. Plans for new ships were called off by the Government due to ballooning costs. Public Transport Users' Association National Coordinator Jon Reeves told Mike Hosking that he hopes it can be re-negotiated. He says a $100 million penalty

Reform lies ahead for the Public Works Act as the Government aims to bring its rules up to pace with the 21st century.

Reform UK has launched their manifesto for the general election. A YouGov poll has placed Reform ahead of the Tories by one percent, Reform sitting at 19% and the Tories at 18%. UK Correspondent Rod Liddle told Mike Hosking that it's a second resurrection for leader Nigel Farage. He said that national polls are suggesting the parties are neck and neck, and if the trajectory is right at the moment, it may translate into Reform getting four or five seats in Parliament.

Mike's Minute: NZ needs offshore buying

The Mike Hosking Breakfast ·

2024/06/17

If a mistake was made during the coalition talks by National it was acquiescing to the NZ First demand that they keep people from offshore buying houses here. National had an elegant solution; anything under a couple of million was out of bounds, leaving that market for first home buyers. Then, the big end of town was open to the open market. Not only was it a mistake, for no real gain, it comes as somewhat ironic that the Prime Minister, quite rightly, is working as hard as any Prime Minister I
