Chris Quinn, who is the Foodstuffs New Zealand Managing Director. voice-verified

I talk to a number of people. voice-verified

I happen to know a number of people who are what you would loosely call franchisees. voice-verified

And they are particularly national, Labour less so because of who Labour are, but national especially. voice-verified

There is something un-national. voice-verified

The consistent argument been put to me is that Nicola particularly, mind you, Luxon's got to carry the can, Buck stops at the top. voice-verified

But Nicola in particular has been captured by the consultants and voice-verified

And the consultants will be presenting her with endless polls that go something like, you know, we asked people, do they like paying this much for groceries? voice-verified

And they all said no. voice-verified

And we asked people, do they think butter's too expensive? voice-verified

And they all said yes. voice-verified

And based on that, and if you think it's going to get sold by more competition, wrong again. voice-verified

Headline Sydney Morning Herald just over the weekend, they're wolves. voice-verified

And that, yet again, is more coverage of an increasingly competitive supermarket system in Australia allegedly ripping off consumers. voice-verified

So it doesn't matter how many supermarkets you've got. voice-verified

People never feel happy about what they pay for food. voice-verified

And if you're going to run it on theory, not on reality, then you're going to get yourself in trouble, but more later, 18.2. voice-verified

Now, when it comes to care and support, everyone's needs are different, of course, which is why many Arvita retirement communities offer a range of care options designed to provide the right support at the right time. voice-verified

So depending on the community, that can include rest home level care, hospital level care, specialist dementia care. voice-verified

Some communities also offer modern care suites and they combine personalised support with the comfort and privacy of a home-like setting. voice-verified
