Forget the detail of the power reforms, because we dealt with them yesterday, let's deal to the politics of it and a habit the Government has that is hurting them. There is a pattern. The pattern is the Government tells us there is something wrong, it could be banks, it could be supermarkets, it could be power, or it could be airlines. The last Government had the same issue – they took on petrol stations. Their concern is partially real. It's real because 1, there might be bits and pieces of the sector that could do with some tightening or tidying and 2, there is almost always consumer concern. The consumer angst is part of the problem, because the consumer will always see a problem whether there is one or not. That's why lazy journalists do vox pops – is butter too expensive? The answer will always be yes. Doesn't mean that's a problem a government can solve. So having stated the problem, you have then created the expectation that you will do something about it. The trouble with yesterday's power deal was the obligatory report suggested more than what actually eventuated by the time the final decisions were made. Hence the reputation, and the reputation is of a government that talks a lot, does a lot, but the “a lot” doesn't amount to much. Yesterday was your classic example: the Electricity Authority gets clearer riding instructions, big deal, the industry has the perception removed that the government don't want to get into big projects, a phone call could have done that. We are to import, in several years time, some LNG – great. Nothing wrong with any of it and it would have landed well if they hadn't given you the sense that Reform —capital letters— was on its way Personally I never thought the industry was that broken. Labour and their oil and gas debacle hobbled us for several years while we wait for the windmills – bit of coal bridges the gap. Like butter, and indeed airlines, there is generally logic as to why things are the way they are. The report fell flat not because what was in it made no sense or hurt an industry, but because it had an “is that it?” feel about it. And it had that feel about it because the Government haven't worked out the balance between hype and reality. Of their passion projects, where trouble sits, banks, airlines supermarkets, or power – name me the one that's materially different because of what they did, not what they said. Politically, that's their failing. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Jimmy Kimmel's ratings spike was short-lived. Disney briefly suspended ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" after the host's remarks about the alleged assassin of Charlie Kirk sparked widespread backlash. After an about-face from Disney, the liberal comedian returned last Tuesday, and Kimmel's emotional return drew a massive audience, but viewers haven't stuck around. On Thursday, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" averaged 2.3 million total viewers — a staggering 64% drop from the 6.5 million who tuned in for Tuesday's much-hyped return. Also audio from Geraldo Rivera supporting Donald Trump by going off on James Comey and audio from JD Vance saying we are headed for a Govt. shutdown.

A new survey has revealed a significant number of Kiwis want the Government to prepare for catastrophic events that could bring about the end of the world. New University of Otago research shows two-thirds of respondents believe the Government should draft action plans for threats such as a nuclear war, bioweapons or mass famine and supply chain collapse. Professor Nick Wilson, senior researcher at the Faculty of Medicine's Department of Public Health, says New Zealand's well-placed to weather out a nuclear winter - but there's plenty the nation's not prepared for. "Although we're a great producer of food, all that food production relies on diesel, which is imported. So we haven't got a single biofuel refinery that could keep our agricultural machinery going, for example." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Commerce and Consumer Affairs Minister is not sharing the same fears as retailers over the surcharge ban. Scott Simpson says the legislation banning surcharges like PayWave is before the Select Committee and will be in place by next year. 36 business associations have written a letter warning the ban could be passed on through increased prices. Simpson says a lot of businesses don't use surcharges - so won't be impacted or need to raise prices. "The ones that choose to add that pricing in will be actually competitively constrained in the marketplace by those businesses that choose not to do so."

(The Center Square) – The U.S. Senate failed to pass either Democrats' or Republicans' government funding proposals Friday to prevent a government shutdown. Senators have now left town for a week-long recess, leaving only two days when they return to pass some kind of funding stopgap before the government shuts down on Oct. 1. Republicans' Continuing Resolution would have extended current government funding levels until Nov. 21, buying lawmakers time to pass all 12 annual appropriations bills for fiscal year 2026. It also included $30 million for additional lawmaker security and $58 million for U.S. Supreme Court judges and members of the executive branch.
