Christchurch believes it's gaining VIP status when it comes to events.

The Wellington Phoenix have joined the Warriors in signing a three-year deal which will see fixtures played at the new Te Kaha Stadium.

Construction of the facility is still underway, with plans to open in April 2026.

Venues Otautahi CEO Caroline Harvie-Teare told Mike Hosking it makes sense for the city to be the home of new teams.

She says the city has a wonderful portfolio of infrastructure and is setting itself up to be the events capital of New Zealand.

Caroline Harvie-Teare: Venues Otautahi CEO on the possibility of Christchurch becoming the Events Capital of New Zealand

At this time of year it’s traditional for political commentators to pick their politician of the year.

And interestingly, the NZ Herald this past weekend went for Simeon Brown.

Now, I think Simeon’s right up there. There’s a reason he’s called Golden Balls. But I don’t think he’s the one.

I think that honour has got to go to Erica Stanford and it’s not even a competition as far as I’m concerned.

No disrespect to Simeon Brown, because he is fixing up a bunch of stuff that needs fixing up like speed limits, potholes, Wellington City Council, speed bumps, Transpower etc.

And he’s done it without causing days of drama. He’s decisive and rarely makes mistakes. You get the impression he’s absolutely not taking BS from public officials behind the scenes.

But that's all regular running-a-Government stuff.

Erica Stanford though, has done something pretty special - she banned phones in schools.

Now, I have a feeling this is going to sound silly to some people as my reason for picking her as the politician of the year. But that will only be if you don’t realise how distracting and addictive those phones were being in school time and how much they were hurting kids’ grades and social skills and ability to just be kids, like we were.

Remember how we ridiculed her when she did it? Now, you find me a teacher who doesn’t think it’s a wild success.

This is so important that international experts who study the impact of phones on kids say this is one of about four things we must do to help kids out, and she’s done it.

She didn’t have to be begged. She didn’t have to be cajoled. She just did it.

Watch the impact it will have on a generation of kids.

As far as I’m concerned, no politician has made a call this significant for a group this important, all year.

So never mind any of the other stuff she’s done, like the State Abuse Inquiry, for the phone ban alone she’s the MVP of 2024.

Heather du Plessis-Allan: My politician of the year

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/7784f840-c291-422a-924b-ad9000bbad71/clips/8c210a10-c77a-4431-af89-b247015e2810/transcript

The five remaining members of the Australian“Bali Nine” drug ring have returned home after 19 years in jail in Indonesia, the Australian Government said Sunday.

Indonesian police arrested the nine Australians in 2005, convicting them of attempting to smuggle more than 8kg of heroin off the holiday island of Bali.

In a case that drew global attention to Indonesia’s unforgiving drug laws, two of the gang would eventually be executed by firing squad, while others served hefty prison sentences.

“The Australian Government can confirm that Australian citizens, Matthew Norman, Scott Rush, Martin Stephens, Si Yi Chen, and Michael Czugaj have returned to Australia,” Canberra said in a statement.

“The men will have the opportunity to continue their personal rehabilitation and reintegration in Australia.”

Accused ringleaders Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran were executed by firing squad in 2015 despite repeated pleas from the Australian Government.

Tan Duc Thanh Nguyen died of cancer in 2018, months before Renae Lawrence was released after her sentence was commuted.

Australia’s Government expressed “deep appreciation” for the Indonesian Government’s co-operation to let the remaining men return on humanitarian grounds.

It did not give further details on the agreement, including whether they would need to continue to serve their sentences following their return home.Heroin-lined suitcase

The Government said it had consistently advocated for the men and provided consular support to them and their families during their incarceration.

It asked the media to respect their privacy.

Muslim-majority Indonesia has some of the world’s toughest drug laws, including the death penalty for traffickers.

It is not uncommon for foreigners to be arrested for drug offences in Bali, which attracts millions of visitors to its palm-fringed beaches every year.

The release of the Australians follows weeks of speculation that a deal for their return was in the works.

In November, a senior Indonesian minister said Jakarta aimed to return prisoners from Australia, France and the Philippines by the end of this year.

Earlier this month, Indonesia signed an agreement with the Philippines for the return of mother-of-two Mary Jane Veloso, who was arrested in 2010 after the suitcase she was carrying was found to be lined with 2.6kg of heroin.

Her supporters claim she was duped by an international drug syndicate, and in 2015, she narrowly escaped execution after her suspected recruiter was arrested.

Auckland FC has just named their first fan representative group, a council of eight people, linking supporters directly to management.

It's an A-League-wide initiative with every club set to have one. 

The group will meet at least four times a year, with the chair meeting with the A-League's fan representative group from the 12 other clubs.

Inaugural chairman Tim Adams joined Heather du Plessis-Allan.
