We have an employer say I'm in need of 40 employees ` that doesn't happen often. TONIGHT ` A FAMILY FORCED TO RELIVE THEIR SON'S KILLING. WE'RE GONNA GO THROUGH THIS AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN. SO WHY'S THE JUSTICE SYSTEM MAKING THEIR LIVES A MISERY? THE PAROLE SYSTEM IS CRUEL. AND TONIGHT WE HITCH A RIDE WITH SOPHIE AND SEAN TO GET A TASTE OF FRONT-LINE LIFE FOR WELLINGTON'S PARAMEDICS. PATIENT HAS BLUE LIPS. ALSO, LIVING IN A FANTASY WORLD... WE HAVE SO MUCH FUN HANGING OUT WITH MICKY AND MINNIE MOUSE EVERY DAY. ...THAT'S EVEN LEFT SOME ADULTS ENCHANTED. AND WE'LL KICK OUT. THERE YOU GO. DUE TO THE LIVE NATURE OF SEVEN SHARP, WE APOLOGISE FOR THE LACK OF CAPTIONS FOR SOME ITEMS. Good evening and welcome to 7 sharp. Fantastic news this is officially a Pokemon go free zone. It was more the singing. I'll give you one little fun bit ` not only is this Pokmon free zone ` the Holocaust Museum in the United States is a Pokemon free zone. Then you see someone playing the game at the Holocaust Museum and that's a bit worse. Apparently they're leaving rubbish and they have to be moved on. It's not just the singing. DEALING WITH THE VIOLENT KILLING OF A LOVED ONE IS TRAUMATIC ENOUGH. BUT UNFORTUNATELY FOR THE VICTIMS, IT'S ONLY THE START OF A LONG, INCREDIBLY TOUGH JOURNEY. THAT'S BECAUSE THE PAROLE HEARINGS ARE YET TO COME. CONSIDER THE CASE OF MICHAEL VALENTINE ` THREE PEOPLE WERE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS DEATH, SO FOR HIS FAMILY, IT'S ALL THE PAIN, STRESS AND UPHEAVAL OF PAROLE HEARINGS THREE TIMES OVER. NOW, YOU'D THINK THE JUSTICE SYSTEM WOULD MAKE THINGS AS EASY AS POSSIBLE FOR THEM. WELL, THIS FAMILY SAY THAT'S FAR FROM THE CASE. HERE'S GILL HIGGINS. FOUR YEARS AGO, THIS FAMILY LOST SOMEONE THEY LOVE TO VIOLENCE. HE WAS A SON... MICHAEL WAS A GUY WHO LOVED FUN. ...AND A BROTHER. HE WAS VOLUNTEERING AT THE SALVATION ARMY. I MEAN, DON'T GET ME WRONG ` HE DID OTHER THINGS AS WELL, BUT HE DID LOTS OF GOOD THINGS. AT THIS RURAL PROPERTY, MICHAEL BLED TO DEATH ON HIS LAWN. IT WAS HORRIFIC WHAT THEY DID TO HIM. KNIFE STEEL IN HIS BACK, STABBED HIM IN HIS HAND. IT WAS A MINOR DISPUTE INVOLVING A HARD DRIVE AND URINATING ON A TOOTHBRUSH. BUT THREE MEN WENT THERE WITH PITBULLS AND A BUTCHER'S KNIFE. IT WASN'T A FIGHT THAT HAPPENED IN A STREET. THEY WERE CHARGED WITH MURDER BUT PLEADED GUILTY TO MANSLAUGHTER, EACH GETTING A SENTENCE OF LESS THAN NINE YEARS. THE FAMILY CAN'T CHANGE THAT. BUT WE CAN TRY TO SEE THAT THEY SERVE OUT THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF TIME THAT THE JUDGE GAVE THEM. WHY DO YOU THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT ALL OF YOU COME? IT'S AFFECTING THE WHOLE FAMILY, AND THEY WANTED TO COME THEMSELVES TO SAY THEIR BIT TO THE PAROLE BOARD. THEY KNEW EACH HEARING WOULD BE AN EMOTIONAL JOURNEY. FIRST ONE WAS LAST YEAR. I WALKED OUT OF THERE, CRYING MY EYES OUT IN THE CAR ALL THE WAY HOME. I SHUT THE DOOR ON THE WORLD, BECAUSE IT TAKES ME A LONG TIME TO GET OVER THIS. BUT THEY DIDN'T EXPECT A PHYSICAL JOURNEY. THE LAST HEARING WAS IN PALMERSTON NORTH, CLOSE TO WHERE THEY LIVE. THIS HEARING, THOUGH, IS IN AUCKLAND. AND I'VE GOT THREE OF THESE PEOPLE. SO WHAT I'M SAYING IS COMING TO AUCKLAND IS` SO HARD ON ME. WE'RE GONNA GO THROUGH THIS AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN. LEIGH'S THEIR SUPPORT PERSON FROM SENSIBLE SENTENCING. SO, SOME PEOPLE MIGHT SAY FLYING UP TO AUCKLAND, STAYING ONE NIGHT IS NOT A BIG DEAL. NO, IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE A LOT, DOES IT, UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES? BUT THESE ARE NOT NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES. I'VE COME OUT OF PAROLE HEARINGS WHERE THEY HAVE ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY THROWN UP. I HAVE BEEN WITH A WOMAN WHO, NOW, CAN NO LONGER COPE WITH GOING TO PAROLE HEARINGS, BECAUSE, MENTALLY, IT HAS ALL BUT DESTROYED HER. AT LEAST THE TRAVEL AND LODGING IS PAID FOR ` TAXPAYERS PICKING UP THE TAB. THE COSTS ARE GENEROUSLY COMPENSATED FOR BY VICTIM SUPPORT. BUT TO YOU, THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE? NO. WHY SHOULD`? WHY SHOULD THEY HAVE TO PAY FOR US TO COME TO AUCKLAND? JUST ON AN ECONOMIC BASIS FOR THE COUNTRY, THAT CAN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. THERE WAS ANOTHER OPTION. WE'VE BEEN OFFERED A VIDEO CONFERENCE. IF IT WAS YOUR CHILD WHO'D DIED, A VIDEO CONFERENCE JUST IS NOT GONNA CUT IT. AND IF ANYONE SHOULD BE HAVING A VIDEO CONFERENCE, IT SHOULD BE WINLEY, NOT US. HE'S THE ONE THAT'S COMMITTED THE OFFENCE. HAVE YOU RAISED THIS AS A PROBLEM WITH ANYONE? I EMAILED PARLIAMENT, AND THE REPLY SAID, 'THIS IS THE SYSTEM. 'SO WHAT?' WHAT WAS YOUR RESPONSE? WORDS TO THE EFFECT THAT THIS WAS THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS, STUPID AND NONSENSICAL REPLY TO A SENSIBLE QUESTION THAT I'VE EVER HEARD. IF THIS IS THE SYSTEM, WELL, THE SYSTEM NEEDS TO CHANGE. IDEALLY, THERE'D BE NO PAROLE HEARINGS TO GO TO. THEY SHOULD BE DOING THE JUDGE GIVING THE SENTENCE IN THE FIRST PLACE AND THEN IT LOOKED AT AT THE END OF THE SENTENCE, AND THE FAMILY WOULDN'T BE HAVING TO DO THIS. BUT IF THEY HAVE TO TAKE PLACE, THEY'D AT LEAST LIKE TO SEE VICTIMS PUT FIRST. IT'S EASY FOR THESE PEOPLE TO MAKE RULES UP THAT SOUND OK TO THEM, BUT ACTUALLY, IT'S RUBBISH. GILL HIGGINS IS WITH US LIVE. GILL, YOU'VE BEEN SPEAKING TO THE JUSTICE MINISTER ON THIS? Yes we sent a few questions and we got a reply. But it's disappointing. She expressed his sympathy. When it came to our specific questions, she had this to say: she added... We gave John a call and we told him about the response. After a long site, he said, that's a copout. He says it's entirely appropriate for her to comment on the case, because she's the justice minister. The result of the parole hearing today meant it was denied, but also that they had to go back in February and in May for another offender. It must be very stressful. Are very costly and arduous process. THANKS, GILL. I'm surprised at the lack of empathy when the family has been such a huge thing. I'm sure the justice minister would say we cannot respond to every case, and that's the blanket rule. You often have to go to numerous hearings over several years, and when you have several people convicted for several cases, it's hard. LET'S BE HONEST ` NOT EVERYONE IS CUT OUT FOR THIS. WE'RE LOOKING AT A PROBABLE FRACTURE OF THE HUMERUS, THE UPPER ARM THERE. YES, THERE'S NO DOUBT IT'S A TOUGH JOB, BUT IT DOES HAVE ITS REWARDS. YOU ARE CHANGING SOMEONE'S WORLD EVERY DAY. HOW ABOUT THIS FOR A NOVEL CONCEPT? AN ENTERPRISE THAT NEEDS TO FILL 40 JOBS. THAT'S RIGHT ` FOUR-ZERO. 40. AND THEY'RE NOT JUST ORDINARY JOBS EITHER. COME INSIDE. THIS IS REALLY SWEET. ALSO, ANYONE CAN BE A PRINCESS, RIGHT? HOW HARD CAN THAT BE? WELL, WE'LL SEE. (LAUGHS) WELL, MAYBE NOT RUTH. OH NO. I'M FLUNKING FLAG SCHOOL. PEOPLE CHATTER, DANCE MUSIC PULSATES They've been on the sauce. They've been on the sauce. Your party! They've been on the sauce. Your party! That's Mary's boy, isn't it? Yeah. Maybe you should say something. Maybe you should say something. Nah. I'm crap at that kind of thing, Barry. Yeah, but they're just kids. If we don't say something... (GROANS) Hey, boys? Boys? Why don't you get a lift home tonight? Oh, whatever, mate. I've only had a couple. No, no, no, no. It's too late now. I've spoken to you and I know your mum, so that means our fates are aligned. You get into that car and you get yourself killed or you kill someone else, I become part of it too. How? How? Well, it's like, um, my balls are in your hands. BOYS LAUGH, SNORT BOY: Oh, you want the balls! BOY: Oh, you want the balls! Nobody wants that. Hey, how about I drive you? What? Oh. What? Oh. BOYS LAUGH, DANCE MUSIC PLAYS ON RADIO (SWITCHES RADIO STATION) (SWITCHES RADIO STATION) YODELLING MUSIC PLAYS I like it. # LIFE IS A HIGHWAY. # I WANNA RIDE IT # ALL NIGHT LONG. # IF YOU'RE GOIN' MY WAY, # I WANNA DRIVE IT # ALL NIGHT LONG. In the jam going. That was the Nicholas Roland. It's the rock camp kids. It's a whole bunch of music kids that get together and they learn how to rock out together. ANYONE WHO'S HAD TO CALL AN AMBULANCE WILL KNOW THE PEOPLE WHO COME TO HELP ARE LIKE ANGELS. YOU'RE PUTTING ALL YOUR TRUST IN THEM. MEANWHILE THEY'RE MAKING SPLIT-SECOND DECISIONS THAT CAN MEAN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH. AND TOMORROW WELLINGTON'S PARAMEDICS WILL BE BACK ON OUR SMALL SCREEN WITH TV 2'S SHOW 'STREET HOSPITAL'. SO REBECCA EDWARDS SPENT THE NIGHT ON THE FRONT LINE WITH SOME OF THEM TO GET A GLIMPSE OF THE UNPREDICTABLE WORLD OF OUR PARAMEDICS. IN THE BACK OF THIS WELLINGTON FREE AMBULANCE, IT'S EITHER A LITTLE SLOW OR ALL GO. SIREN WAILS UNCONSCIOUS. BREATHING. THIS IS A WORK OFFICE THAT CAN CHANGE... IT IS AN URGENT JOB, SO PUT YOUR SEAT BELTS ON. ...IN AN INSTANT. PATIENT HAS BLUE LIPS. MALE (91) FROM FALLS... HAS THERE BEEN ANY TIMES WHEN HIS WHOLE BODY'S BEEN CONVULSING? NO. JUST HIS FACE AND HIS` JUST HIS FACE. ...TO FRACTURES AND OTHER MEDICAL EMERGENCIES. JUST GONNA NIP ONE OF YOUR FINGERS. SORRY, I KNOW YOU'RE A BIT OF A PIN CUSHION HERE. FOR SEAN AND SOPHIE, A 13-HOUR NIGHT SHIFT IS ABOUT AS UNPREDICTABLE AS YOU CAN GET. THERE'S JUST NO TELLING WHAT YOU CAN GO TO, AND EVERYTHING'S A SURPRISE. ALL RIGHT, THERE WE GO. LET'S POP THAT ON THE INSIDE OF YOUR WRIST. THERE ARE CASES THAT ARE REALLY CHALLENGING. IT'S NOT AN EASY JOB. IT'S NOT ALL GREAT STORIES. WE DO SEE THE NOT-SO-PRETTY SIDE OF LIFE AS WELL. AS A FLY ON THE WALL, WE WATCH THEM CALMLY ASSESSING,... CHECK YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE. ...DIAGNOSING... WE'RE LOOKING AT A PROBABLE FRACTURE OF THE HUMERUS. OBVIOUSLY WE DON'T WANT THAT COMPLICATION OF HAVING ANY CARDIAC ISSUES AS WELL. SOMETIMES WHEN YOU HAVE A STRESSFUL EVENT, IT CAN SET OFF OTHER MEDICAL EVENTS. ...AND TREATING WHATEVER COMES THEIR WAY. GONNA GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT MORE MORPHINE. WE GO TO PEOPLE IN DEFINING MOMENTS OF THEIR LIVES. BUT IT'S A REALLY SIGNIFICANT EVENT FOR THEM, AND YOU HAVE TO BE ON YOUR GAME AND YOU HAVE TO BE RESPECTFUL, AND YOU HAVE TO BE CONSIDERATE AND REALLY LISTEN AND TREAT EVERYONE WITH THE EMPATHY AND THE PROFESSIONALISM THAT THEY DESERVE. COME SUMMERTIME OR PARTY TIME IN THE CAPITAL, THE SMASHED AND TRASHED CAN ADD TO THE WORKLOAD. SO THE STREET HOSPITAL TEAMS DEAL WITH WHATEVER THEY CAN ON SITE TO AVOID ADDING TO THE ED'S LOAD. SOME PEOPLE DO END UP NEEDING OUR SERVICES THROUGH, UM, THEIR OWN FAULT, I GUESS. BUT OUR JOB'S NOT TO JUDGE. OUR JOB IS TO TREAT EVERYONE AS AN INDIVIDUAL. EVERYONE, REGARDLESS OF HOW THEY GOT INTO THEIR SITUATION, IS ENTITLED TO GOOD CARE. AND IT'S THAT PASSION AND DEDICATION TO THE JOB AND TO THEIR PATIENTS THAT FILLS EVERY PART OF THIS TINY WORKSPACE. SOME PEOPLE WILL REMEMBER YOU FOREVER. YOU'RE IN A JOB WHERE YOU'RE ACTUALLY MAKING A DIFFERENCE EVERY DAY. SO IT MAY NOT BE A WORLD-SAVING DECISION, BUT IT IS LIFE-SAVING DECISION. SO YOU'RE CHANGING SOMEONE'S WORLD EVERY DAY, AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT I LIKE ABOUT IT. You see some stuff a. Can you imagine a job every day? The only service in the country that is free. They have onesie day coming up. You can donate if you like, but it is very important because it's a free service. I'm moreover nonesie guy than a onesie guy. Street hospital is on tomorrow night on TV two. NOW, HOW ABOUT A LITTLE HAPPINESS? A HAPPY WORKPLACE WITH A GOOD DILEMMA. IT'S A COMPANY WITH A CHARMING DIFFERENCE IN SOUTH AUCKLAND THAT'S DESPERATE FOR 40 NEW EMPLOYEES ` LIKE, 'YESTERDAY DESPERATE'. HERE'S MICHAEL HOLLAND. UPBEAT MUSIC THEIR FACES TELL THE TALE. CONTENT AND PURPOSEFUL IN THEIR TOIL. YOU'RE QUITE HAPPY OR VERY HAPPY? I'M VERY HAPPY. EVERY DAY? YEAH. I'M ADAM SMITH. I WORK AT ALTUS ENTERPRISES, AND I DO THE UNTANGLING FOR AIR NZ. UNTANGLING OF THE HEADSET CHORDS? YES, YES. UNCOMPLICATED, REPETITIVE WORK, YES, BUT IMPORTANT FOR THOSE WITH INTELLECTUAL DIFFICULTIES. IT'S ABSOLUTELY FUN. ABSOLUTELY FUN. AND HERE'S THE SWEET PART ` THEY'RE LOOKING FOR 40 NEW COLLEAGUES. YEP, THAT'S A FOUR AND A ZERO. IF THERE WERE PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO WONDERED WHETHER THIS COULD BE A GOOD PLACE TO WORK, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY? GOOD IDEA. GET IN HERE AND HELP OUT? YES. HOW HARD WOULD THEY HAVE TO WORK, ADAM? THEY HAVE TO WORK VERY HARD. HOW WOULD YOU TREAT THEM ON THEIR FIRST DAY? WITH OPEN ARMS... AND TO SHOW THEM... WE APPRECIATE THEM TO BE IN HERE. WE NEED THEM; WE NEED THEM TODAY. WE'VE GOT MORE WORK THAN WE CAN HANDLE. WHAT A STRANGELY BEAUTIFUL POSITION TO BE IN. I WOULDN'T HAVE BELIEVED IT A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO WHERE ORGANISATIONS LIKE THIS WERE STRUGGLING TO FIND ENOUGH WORK AND HAD TO TURN PEOPLE AWAY. WE'VE MET THE INDUSTRIOUS ALTUS CREW BEFORE ` IN THEIR OLD DIGS ` MANY DECADES REMOVED FROM THEIR SPACIOUS NEW FACTORY... OH, IT'S A BIG PLACE. ...OFFICIALLY OPENED THIS MORNING. WHAT'S THAT FRANCES OVER THERE LIKE? SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND EVER. AND WHAT ABOUT SCOTTY BESIDE HER? HE'S ALL RIGHT. THEY'RE ALL A GOOD BUNCH OF PEOPLE. MY SECOND DAY OR THIRD DAY I CAME HERE, I WENT, 'YEAH, THIS IS THE PLACE FOR ME.' WHAT SORT OF FRIENDSHIPS WILL THEY DEVELOP HERE? KINDNESS TO EACH OTHER... AND RESPECT. I WILL LOOK AFTER THEM AND SHOW THEM HOW TO DO IT PROPERLY. FUN MUSIC COULD THEY EVER BE LATE FOR WORK? NO, YOU GOTTA BE HERE AT 8.30. 8.30 TILL 4. WHEN DID YOU START HERE? WEDNESDAY, 11TH OF JULY 2012. AND LOVED EVERY DAY OF IT? YES, EVERY DAY OF IT. COME ON, THERE MUST BE SOME DAYS WHEN YOU ARE NOT SO HAPPY. I ALWAYS HAVE A GOOD DAY ALL THE TIME! I'M NOT WONDER WOMAN OR SUPERWOMAN OR THAT; BUT I'M JUST ME. I JUST COME HERE AND BE ME. JUST BE THE HAPPY ME. COME TO ALTUS ENTERPRISES. IT'S A GOOD THING. IT WILL HELP YOU THROUGH YOUR FUTURE. YOU'LL BE HAPPY, BECAUSE YOU'RE FAMILY. That is so cool. What a great sales pitch. Apparently you don't need to have a CV if you are interested in a job at altus. It's very easy. The chances are pretty high considering there are 40 places. Eventually you may get a job on the open market. Remember the first day you started at TVNZ? Sixth of October 2006.

WE'RE ABOUT TO TAKE YOU INSIDE THE WORLD OF DISNEY ON ICE ` YES, WITH THAT VERY CATCHY, AND SOME WOULD SAY A TAD ANNOYING, THEME SONG. RUTH WYNN-WILLIAMS MET THE CAST IN BRISBANE. # LET IT GO, # LET IT GO! BRACE YOURSELF ` WE'RE ABOUT TO TALK 'FROZEN'. IF YOU'RE A PARENT, YOU NEED TO PREPARE. THIS IS ON ITS WAY. # TURN AWAY AND SLAM THE DOOR! NO MATTER WHERE YOU GO, THE KIDS ARE GOING TO BE SINGING THEIR FAVOURITE SONGS ` WHETHER IT'S 'LET IT GO' IN A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE, OR IN ENGLISH, WHEREVER WE GO, THEY KNOW THE SONGS, THEY KNOW THE STORIES, AND THEY ARE SO EXCITED ABOUT IT. DISNEY ON ICE IS ALL ABOUT BRINGING TO LIFE THE THINGS THAT MAKE YOUR CHILDREN GO CRAZY ` THE MICE, THE PRINCESSES AND NOW ANNA, ELSA AND OLAF. DISNEY'S 'MAGICAL ICE FESTIVAL' IS THE STUFF KID DREAMS ARE MADE OF. YOU SEE THEM IN THEIR DRESSES, AND THEY'RE SINGING AND DANCING. ASK ANY LITTLE PRINCESS. THE FANTASY WORLD IS BIG BUSINESS. AND FROZEN IS THE ONE FILM THAT RULES THEM ALL ` THE TOP-GROSSING ANIMATED MOVIE OF ALL TIME. AND EVEN WHEN IT PLAYS OUT ON THE ICE, THIS STORY DOES SOMETHING TO KIDS. SO, I'M GOING FULL IMMERSION TO FIND OUT WHY. OOPS! YOU'RE ON THE ICE; YOU'RE DOING YOUR THING. WHAT'S THAT FEELING LIKE? IT'S ACTUALLY AMAZING, ESPECIALLY FOR THE SEGMENTS WHERE THE KIDS ARE SINGING. WE CAN ACTUALLY HEAR THE KIDS SINGING AND DANCING. OH, YEAH. IT'S AMAZING. THERE YOU GO. # FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER... BEAUTIFUL. (CHUCKLES) JUST LIKE A REAL PRINCESS. YES. YOU KNOW? EXACTLY. DID I GET THE JOB? UM,... NO. ACCORDING TO DISNEY, SOMEONE LIKE ME SHOULD PROBABLY ONLY 'LET IT GO' TO ABOUT HERE. # OOH, IT'S SOMETHING MAGICAL. FOR THOSE WHO DO HAVE THE TALENT, THIS IS MORE THAN A 9 TO 5. THEY'RE ON THE ROAD FULL-DISNEY FOR NINE MONTHS A YEAR. DO I LOOK LIKE A PRINCESS? YOU REALLY DO. HMM. THOUGHT SO. A TRAVELLING WORLD OF FROZEN, THE LITTLE MERMAID, TANGLED... AND BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. DO YOU GUYS HAVE AS GOOD A TIME AS THEY'RE HAVING IN THE AUDIENCE? I WOULD THINK SO, YEAH. WE'RE JUST A BUNCH OF BIG KIDS CELEBRATING THESE DISNEY PRINCESSES AND WE HAVE SO MUCH FUN HANGING OUT WITH MICKEY AND MINNIE MOUSE EVERY DAY. IT'S SUCH A TREAT. THE ELEGANT LIFE OF A FAIRY PRINCESS MIGHT NOT BE FOR ALL OF US,... BUT THERE'S NO HARM IN LETTING IT GO. # LET IT GO, LET IT GO. # I'm super excited about Disney on ice, because I am one of those tragic mothers that tried to take her daughter when she was way too young. She was only 10 months. I told her you will like this. That is going to stick with you. With frozen, anyone that has two daughters my eldest has already claimed that she is elsa. So now the little one will have no choice but to be anna. Tough luck. I'm glad you know something about it. I've never seen it. AND GOOD NEWS ` DISNEY ON ICE IS COMING TO NZ AT THE END OF THIS MONTH, AND TICKETS ARE ON SALE NOW. I got a good test for you. You can take my 15 month old and see how you get on. SO, THERE'S STILL RESISTANCE TO FUNDING THESE PEPI-PODS OR THE SLEEPING DEVICE OR CAPSULE YOU CAN PUT IN BED WITH YOU AS PARENTS SO YOU DON'T ACCIDENTALLY SMOTHER YOUR NEW BABY. WHEN YOU'RE PREGNANT, THE MESSAGE IS VERY CLEAR FROM THE EXPERTS ` CO-SLEEPING IS A BIG NO-NO, BECAUSE IT PUTS YOUR CHILD AT RISK, AND THAT'S OBVIOUSLY THE IDEAL SCENARIO THAT EVERYONE WOULD ADHERE TO. PROBLEM IS THEY DON'T ` SOME FOR CULTURAL REASONS, OTHERS BECAUSE THEY'RE SO EXHAUSTED THAT CO-SLEEPING SEEMS THE ONLY OPTION TO SETTLE THEIR CRYING BABY. ANY PARENT WILL UNDERSTAND THAT. THIS IS WHY WE SHOULD BE FUNDING THESE THINGS, ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE MOST AT RISK. SEVERAL EXPERTS HAVE PREDICTED THIS WOULD MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE TO THE 25 BABIES THAT DIE FROM ACCIDENTAL SMOTHERING EVERY YEAR. IT WON'T BREAK THE BANK, SO WHAT'S THE HOLD-UP? FINALLY TONIGHT, HERE'S TO GETTING JOB INTERVIEW TIPS FROM HELEN CLARK. SO CALM. SO CONFIDENT. SO QUALIFIED. JUST LIKE HER INITIAL TWO-AND-A-HALF-HOUR QUESTION-AND-ANSWER SESSION AT THE UNITED NATIONS, SHE ACED TODAY'S PUBLIC DEBATE IN THE RACE TO BE THE NEXT SECRETARY GENERAL. BUT THOUGH NO ONE ANYWHERE COULD ARGUE THAT HELEN CLARK DOESN'T HAVE THE CREDENTIALS TO BE SECRETARY GENERAL, IT'S WORTH JUST REMEMBERING THAT CREDENTIALS ARE ONLY SO IMPORTANT. THIS IS THE MOST TRANSPARENT SECRETARY GENERAL ELECTION PROCESS IN UN HISTORY, AND THAT BENEFITS HELEN CLARK, BUT IT'S STILL NOT A SIMPLE DEMOCRATIC VOTE AMONGST ALL MEMBER STATES. AND WHILE, SURE, WE THINK SHE'S GREAT ` DESPITE JUST A LITTLE BIAS ` BEING QUALIFIED ONLY COUNTS FOR SO MUCH. IT'S A MESSY BUSINESS. ONE NEWS CAPTIONS BY JAKE EBDALE AND ASHLEE SCHOLEFIELD.
