I better rephrase that.

They get blown away.

They get blown away.

John was invited over to Japan a few years ago.

And what they do, and there are tours, package tours arranged around it.

They follow

the cherry blossoms, because they blossom at different times, depending on the distance away from the equator, you see, because it's milder further south and then they blossom first and then you move north with the blossoms, which sounds like a beautiful thing to do, which isn't on my bucket list, but could be on somebody's bucket list.

Yeah, the cherry blossoms.

And end that lovely bit.

I could ring John and ask him, can we use that once a week?

We'll just do the John Spillane well done thing, where we just say, well done, everyone.

They've sorted out the whole thing temporarily, maybe temporarily, maybe forever.

It's cost the government half a billion subsidies on fuel and they're suspending increases in carbon tax

It's cost half a billion.

So I suppose they got what they wanted.

And what message does that send out to other people in the future?

Well, if you protest and you create enough of a nuisance of yourself, you will get what you want.

I remember somebody talking about

protests and strikes and negotiations.

And the person said, and this person was well versed in negotiations.
