See, this is the kind of weird text I get about Bunnings. Heather, once Bunnings' online security is as good as mine, they can take my photo. I'd want to see or watch them delete my photo as I left the store. Tony why? What are you worried about? What have you been doing? What do you like? Honestly, what is the worst case scenario here? Worst case scenario is Bunnings either sells your data or loses your data. Now if he loses your data, I don't know what the hacker's going to do with it. Great, they've got your face. Do they know who you are? Probably not, so who cares? So then probably the worst case scenario is that they sell your data to somebody so that when you walk into a mall next time, it's going to go, oh look, it's Tony. Tony has got hemorrhoids. Flash him a hemorrhoids ad and then everybody knows you've got hemorrhoids. It's like who cares? Are you really going to waste all that time going can you please go to the manager can you delete my photo please I don't want them to know I've got hemorrhoids. I don't know it just seems like an utter waste of money and also just an unbelievable amount of stress over the possibility maybe one day in the future that they sell it. I just couldn't care less. Just weird. I'd much rather the staff were protected but anyway we are going to talk to Bunnings about it after. but after half past five, so we can re-litigate this. Right now it's 4.26. Tame Randall, the rumours were true. We've been told about this for bloody months. Tame Randall is going to stand as a New Zealand First candidate at this year's election. He's apparently possibly going to contest the Tukituki seat in Hawke's Bay, which is currently held by National. My question on this is what does this mean for Stuart Nash? Because Stuart Nash was supposed to be their big catch, right? And... And he is a Hawke's Bay MP, so if Tain is going to go stand in Hawke's Bay, how many candidates do they want to throw at Hawke's Bay seats? I mean, maybe they want to be a Hawke's Bay party in the way that they once upon a time were a... uh Tauranga Party we can find out when he's with us after quarter past five we now know by the way why Nicola Willis wasn't on the show on Monday they were being very schtum about this but she's in Washington uh she went for the IMF and the World Bank spring meetings and she's going to visit the White House overnight our time And she's given an interview to The Post about this and she says she is going to ask the US officials what their plan is for a return to normal, which presupposes that they have a plan for a return to normal. Barry Soap is with us on this when he's with us just before five. News is next.
