NEWSTALK ZB MIKE HOSKINGS
I have stopped listening to the rantings of Mike Hoskings on his AM show but today I was on the station by error and again I heard him showing no respect to our Prime Minister. He is like a ferrill cat sitting on a fence waiting to pounce. He is extremely rude to her at every interview and before Jacinda has a chance to answer one of his pre loaded questions he cuts her off and fires another question at her and if he doesn't get the answer he requires so he can be in the position of " got ya" he ramps up his rudeness. Recently he couldn't get a rise out of Chris Hipkins in an interview so he went to an ad break without even thanking Chris for being on his show and that was the end of the interview. I wonder if the Producers of the show ever listen to him.
By comparrision he never treated our past Prime Minister in that manner in an interview. Imagine Mike Hoskings living in America at the moment, he obviously does not appreciate the position we are in re Covid compared to most other countries in the world.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
