New Zealand PM takes commercial flight as air force plane develops snag

On Tuesday, New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon had to take a commercial flight to Australia as the air force plane was grounded due to technical issues.&nbsp;

New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon on Tuesday took a last-minute commercial flight to Australia for a summit after the air force plane was grounded due to a landing gear fault. Luxon was scheduled to depart on the NZDF 757 from Wellington Airport at 6 am on Tuesday.
However, he had to take a flight to Auckland before transferring to a commercial trans-Tasman flight to Melbourne for the ASEAN summit.&nbsp;
The prime minister was flying to Melbourne to attend meetings with leaders of Southeast Asian nations and the host country on the sidelines of an ASEAN-Australia summit.
During pre-flight checks, the crew of the military plane became aware of a technical fault with the nose landing gear system, a defence force spokesperson said. "The aim is to remedy the fault as soon as possible."
The Royal New Zealand Air Force has been asked to look at back-up options for when the prime minister returns on Wednesday, the spokesperson added.
The second of the two defence force Boeing 757 planes is unavailable in Christchurch for scheduled maintenance work.
This is not the first time there have been concerns about the reliability of defence force planes transporting New Zealand officials.
A back-up Boeing 757 was used for a trip to China last year in case of a breakdown when then-prime minister Chris Hipkins led a delegation to Beijing.
As leader of the opposition at the time, Luxon had criticised the move.
The pair of Boeing 757s have been in service since 2003. Defence Minister Judith Collins said the planes have a planned lifetime of another four years, but there are plans to replace them.
"The Defence Force has been doing enormously good work with very, very old planes, and they're not sustainable in the long term," she added.
Collins said a defence capability plan, due out in June, will outline the equipment and personnel needs of New Zealand's military for the next 25 years.
Christopher Luxon was earlier the chief executive of Air New Zealand, He has previously labelled this issue, 'incredibly embarrassing.'

New Zealand's youngest MP delivers powerful Maori haka in maiden speech 

A powerful video showcasing a woman MP's tribute to her Maori tribe has gone viral on social media, leaving netizens in awe. Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke is New Zealand's youngest parliamentarian in 170 years.

A video of a 21-year-old MP from New Zealand performing a powerful Maori haka during her maiden parliament speech went viral on social media on Friday.&nbsp;
Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, who became New Zealand's youngest parliamentarian in 170 years, delivered a captivating speech in the parliament as she paid tributes to the indigenous people of New Zealand.&nbsp;
Though the event occurred last month, a video of the parliament session was shared by a user on X on Thursday, gaining massive traction on the social media platform.
In her maiden speech, Maipi-Clarke, who belongs to the Maori tribe&mdash;an indigenous people of New Zealand&mdash;assured her electorate, saying, "I will die for you ... but I will [also] live for you."
Maipi-Clarke's speech was laced with witty remarks, as she described what made her take a plunge into politics.&nbsp;
"At 21 years old, I can definitely say this was not the plan. I was perfectly fine growing my kūmara and learning maramataka, but this House kept tampering with things they shouldn't be touching, and that's why I left the māra to come here," Maipi-Clarke said.&nbsp;
She was elected in October last year after defeating Nanaia Mahuta, who held the seat since its formation in 2008 and has been an MP since 1996.
"To the tamariki Māori who have been sitting in the back of their classroom their whole life, whakamā, waiting generations longing to learn their native tongue, to the tamariki who haven&rsquo;t been to their pepeha yet, it is waiting for you with open arms," she said in her speech.
"Never fit in. You are perfect. You are the perfect fit," Maipi-Clarke said.
Though becoming the youngest parliamentarian in New Zealand may not have been part of her career goals, Maipi-Clarke comes from a family that has a long history of political activism.&nbsp;
Her great-great-great-great-grandfather Wiremu Katene was the first Maori minister to the Crown in 1872, while her aunt, Hana Te Hemara, was behind delivering the Māori language petition to the New Zealand Parliament in 1972. In 2018, her grandfather, Taitimu Maipi, was in the spotlight for vandalising a statue of Captain John Hamilton &mdash; the namesake of Hamilton city &mdash;as a mark of protest against Hamilton's colonial legacy and unjust attitude towards Māori.

New Zealand's new prime minister Christopher Luxon has announced that the country will not be implementing anti-smoking laws.

New Zealand to scrap world-leading anti-smoking laws

New Zealand's new prime minister Christopher Luxon has announced that the country will not be implementing anti-smoking laws.

New Zealand's plans for world-leading anti-smoking laws will be revoked, Christopher Luxon confirmed Monday after being sworn in as prime minister, in a move described as a "huge win for the tobacco industry".
Former airline boss Luxon took over six weeks after his conservative National Party won national elections, ending a six-year Labour Party reign ushered in by Jacinda Ardern.
Luxon, 53, was sworn in as head of a new coalition government by New Zealand's governor-general in a ceremony in the capital Wellington.
"It is an honour and an awesome responsibility," Luxon told reporters.
The conservative said he would prioritise taming inflation and bringing down interest rates and also confirmed he would scrap a so-called "generational smoking ban" adopted last year that stops sales of tobacco to anyone born after 2008.
Luxon said the tax revenue from ongoing cigarette sales would generate welcome income for the government but also voiced concern that the ban would create a flourishing -- and untaxed -- black market.

- 'Major loss' - &nbsp;
The move was criticised by anti-smoking groups as a step back for the country.
"This is a major loss for public health, and a huge win for the tobacco industry, whose profits will be boosted at the expense of Kiwi lives," the Health Coalition Aotearoa -- the Maori name for New Zealand -- said in a statement.
The anti-smoking legislation, scheduled to start later this year, was designed to almost immediately reduce the number of people using tobacco products.
While the number of adults smoking in New Zealand is relatively low at just eight percent, the previous government had envisioned a future where the country was completely smoke-free.
As well as the steadily increasing age limit, the new law would have slashed the number of retailers able to sell tobacco products to a maximum of just 600 nationwide, a massive drop from the current figure of 6,000.
Originally unveiled by then-PM Ardern and praised by public health experts and anti-smoking advocates, a suite of near-identical measures were recently announced in the United Kingdom.

<h2>Kane Williamson (thumb), Lockie Ferguson (achilles), and Mark Chapman (calf) were already nursing injuries, and Henry and James Neesham were added to the list on Wednesday, with Henry sustaining a hamstring injury.</h2>

New Zealand, plagued by injuries, have called upon fast bowler Kyle Jamieson to reinforce their World Cup squad, with doubts surrounding pacer Matt Henry's availability for the crucial match against Pakistan.
The 28-year-old, standing at a towering six feet eight inches, will join the squad in Bengaluru ahead of their upcoming match against Pakistan on Saturday.
New Zealand face a challenging situation as the tournament progresses, with five of their players, including two pacers, dealing with injuries. Regular captain Kane Williamson (thumb), Lockie Ferguson (achilles), and Mark Chapman (calf) were already nursing injuries, and Henry and James Neesham were added to the list on Wednesday, with <a href="https://www.editorji.com/sports-news/icc-world-cup/new-zealand-s-matt-henry-suffers-hamstring-injury-vs-south-africa-nz-vs-sa-icc-cricket-world-cup-1698849478474">Henry sustaining a hamstring injury</a>.
With Matt Henry awaiting scan results for his right hamstring, New Zealand couldn't afford to risk going into the Pakistan match with one less bowler, prompting them to bring in Kyle Jamieson. Jamieson had previously been with the squad as a cover for Tim Southee.

Gary Stead, the head coach, mentioned, "The severity of Matt&rsquo;s injury, combined with a short turnaround to Pakistan, meant we couldn't risk being a bowler down for Saturday."
Stead also expressed hope for Henry's scan results, as he's been a world-class performer for the team in ODI cricket over the past two World Cup cycles. Jamieson, who was making his way to India, was well-prepared to step in.

"Kyle's on his way over as we speak, and we look forward to welcoming him back into the group. He'll likely train with us on Friday with a mind to being available for Saturday&rsquo;s game," Stead said, adding that Kyle had trained with the team earlier in the tournament for two full weeks and had played a Plunket Shield match. Therefore, they are confident he can seamlessly integrate into the team.
New Zealand has faced three consecutive losses after securing four wins, leaving them with 8 points in the tournament standings. Their upcoming matches include Pakistan in Bengaluru and Sri Lanka on November 9.

<h2>While Kane Williamson will be included in New Zealand's 15-man squad for the ODI World Cup, he faces a race against time to be fit for the opening game against England on October 5.</h2>

New Zealand's white-ball captain, Kane Williamson, will be part of the 15-man squad for the upcoming ICC Cricket World Cup in India, marking his recovery from a knee injury that occurred during the opening day of IPL 2023.
Williamson's progress in rehabilitation has been impressive, enabling his inclusion in the squad for the tournament, scheduled to commence on October 5.
NZ coach Gary Stead expressed optimism about Williamson's recovery. As quoted by New Zealand Cricket, he said, &ldquo;Kane has applied phenomenal dedication to his rehabilitation and has been supported by a strong group of experts around him. He&rsquo;s left no stone unturned in trying to get back to playing cricket at the highest level. We are delighted to be in a place to select him.&rdquo;  
Stead clarified that there is no fixed timeline for Williamson's return to active play, underlining the need for a patient and gradual approach.
Williamson himself welcomed the opportunity to participate in his fourth One Day Cricket World Cup, stating, "Through this entire process I have tried to keep an open mind on when I might be able to return to cricket and not get too focused on one date or match. Being selected doesn&rsquo;t change that and I know there&rsquo;s still work to do and day-by-day goals to tick off to get back on the field with the team.&rdquo;

As umpire&nbsp;Anil&nbsp;Chaudhary&nbsp;was asked to stay with his original&nbsp;decision,&nbsp;Virat&nbsp;Kohli&nbsp;was forced to walk away in disbelief.

Kanpur Test: Iyer shines on debut as India end Day 1 at 258/4 vs New Zealand

Shreyas&nbsp;Iyer&nbsp;impressed on his Test debut as India ended Day 1 of the Kanpur&nbsp;Test at 258/4 vs New Zealand.&nbsp;
Ajinkya&nbsp;Rahane's decision to bat first was the right call but Mayank&nbsp;Agarwal&nbsp;failed to capitalise and was dismissed for 13. Shubman&nbsp;Gill once again impressed with 52 but failed to carry on. Rahane&nbsp;and Pujara&nbsp;too went back cheaply as India suddenly found themselves wanting at 145/4. But Iyer&nbsp;and&nbsp;Ravindra&nbsp;Jadeja&nbsp;helped India avoid a middle-order collapse with an unbeaten 113-run stand. While Iyer&nbsp;scored 75 not out, Jadeja&nbsp;remained unbeaten on 50&nbsp;as they both saw off the day.
With the new ball just 4 overs&nbsp;old, New Zealand&nbsp;would hope to break this partnership early on Day 2, else it will be very tough to catch up with the Hosts.
