At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all. The Northland transmission tower: 1/10 If you made it up, they wouldn’t believe you. The ferry: 3/10 A bit more believable given the track record leading up, but it's still no less depressing. The Warriors: 1/10 Almost as bad as taking too many nuts and bolts out. Pharmac: 7/10 Because on balance, a naive promise that was broken got rectified in a pretty impressive

Mike’s Minute: A different perspective on job losses

The Mike Hosking Breakfast ·

2024/06/26

A little something from the perspective file. Although things are dire and dour and straight up and down bad, in some areas they are not as bad as headlines would lead you to believe. The best line of high drama I have read this week was around jobs. "It's like the Hunger Games", it said. Is it? Really? A lot of press has been given to those who have lost jobs of late. The reason for this is because we haven't gone through a job loss scenario for a while in this country. But if you've been

More than three billion dollars' worth of household food gets thrown in the bin every year. The Prime Minister's Chief Science Advisor, Dame Juliet Gerrard, has issued the government 27 recommendations, including a reduction target. Executive Director of NZ Food Waste Champions Kaitlin Dawson told Mike Hosking that we need to focus on other ways to lower the figures.

If further approvals go ahead, construction can begin on the 43-hectare area in Dairy Flat later this year. The All Black legend told Mike Hosking that there'll be a data centre and hotel, so it'll appeal to more than just the surfers. LISTEN ABOVE See

Joe Biden and Donald Trump are gearing up for a rematch in the first 2024 US election debate. It's the third faceoff between the President and former President after two heated encounters in 2020. Marco Rubio's former chief of staff Matt Terrill says Biden will have to bring some energy while Trump will have to focus on the policies. He told Mike Hosking that it's going to come down to inflation and immigration. Terrill says those two issues are top of mind for the undecided voters, who both

The Government's edging towards becoming more prescriptive with its sentencing reforms. It's introducing changes to lengthen sentences for some crimes including creating a new aggravating factor and limiting sentencing discounts. Law Society Criminal Law Committee Convenor Chris Macklin says it's early days, but it looks like there's still some room for discretion. He told Mike Hosking that he expects Judges will do their best to apply whatever comes out of the legislation as fairly as possible

It's a tough time for dairy farmers with expenses up and profits down. An industry survey has shown a suite of challenges for dairy producers including a drop in the payout for milk solids and a reduction in herd size. It's caused operating profits to be down 27%. Mark Neal, Head of Data Science at Dairy NZ, told Mike Hosking that it's emblematic of wider economic challenges. He says farmers, like the rest of New Zealanders, are battling inflation and are being forced to watch costs. LISTEN

AI has gotten two start-ups in hot water. Their use of AI for music creation has resulted in them being sued by three of the world’s largest record labels: Sony, Universal Music Group, and Warner Records. They say that the AI firms are making money from copied songs, and want $150,000 in compensation for each song that has allegedly been copied. The New Zealand Chair of the Intellectual Property Society, Kate Duckworth, told Mike Hosking that this is likely to be the first of many cases. She

New Zealand Rugby is on shaky ground. It made a loss of almost $9 million in 2023, the second loss making year in a row after 2022’s loss of $47 million. NZR CEO Mark Robinson said that further work is needed to achieve a sustainable financial model, but he was positive about the organisation’s future. He told Mike Hosking that the way things developed over the last 20-25 years means they’ve got a really high fixed cost base, and they’re working really hard with shareholders to try and alter

We have our first agree to disagree clause of this new coalition. First point to make - what a mature look it is. New Zealand First has invoked the clause, which is probably not the surprise. The surprise is that in previous coalitions this would be described as a crack. "Coalition cracks forming" was the headline from Newshub. Yet in 2024 if it is as it seems, it’s a clause, that's life and we move on. That is to the credit of Christopher Luxon, who stitched this thing together with the view of

Paul Buchanan told Mike Hosking that Assange has spent the last 14 years in some sort of confinement.

There's claims continued Houthi strikes in the Red Sea are to blame for high shipping costs in this country. Another vessel sank last week after being struck, killing three people in the shipping channel and putting strain on the global supply chain. It's caused shipping costs in New Zealand to rise by three times last year's levels.

The invoking of the Agree to Disagree clause doesn’t indicate a cracking coalition, the Police Minister says. Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters has invoked the first Coalition Agree to Disagree over the second phase of the Covid-19 inquiry. Mark Mitchell told Mike Hosking that the coalition agreement has that clause so that the things parties don't agree on can be dealt with in an adult way.

Minister Brooke van Velden says phase one centres mostly on the health response and the Government's communication. But she told Mike Hosking that phase two will focus on factors like vaccines and lockdowns as well as any disruptions to health, education and business.
