0:12
Speaker 1: Is the good report. Welcome to the show. Well tonight
0:18
Speaker 1: a reality check about the shocking shocking. It's just unbelievable
0:25
Speaker 1: when you see this horrific video of how Hamas Terrists
0:29
Speaker 1: treated five nineteen year old Jewish women. And this is
0:32
Speaker 1: when Labor is trying to act neutral in this war
0:36
Speaker 1: the cowards. Although the premise of today did have to
0:40
Speaker 1: row back a lot. It's embarrassing. I'll show you that too.
0:43
Speaker 1: Plus immigration, miss Andrew Jarles shifts the blame for the
0:46
Speaker 1: release of a foreigner now accused of murder. But guess what,
0:51
Speaker 1: it's not actually Charles who should be sacked for this.
0:53
Speaker 1: Here's the foe go for his boss. I'll show you
0:56
Speaker 1: that too. Also tonight, Britain's conservative Prime minister calls an
0:59
Speaker 1: early election clas there will be sunnier days ahead if
1:02
Speaker 1: people back this soggy leader who can't even check a
1:06
Speaker 1: weather forecast. Most disastrous election announcement I've ever seen. And
1:10
Speaker 1: the latest arranged attempt to destroy Donald Trump before the
1:13
Speaker 1: election a new film showing him raping his former wife.
1:18
Speaker 2: It seems so violent it drew audible gasps from the
1:22
Speaker 2: audience and can and of course.
1:25
Speaker 1: My whiskey in my book of the Week this time
1:27
Speaker 1: the best, the most dangerous writer in France, the most
1:31
Speaker 1: honor too. Despite being put on trial for insulting Islam.
1:35
Speaker 1: Well you'll see that he hasn't taken that laying down.
1:40
Speaker 1: But first, for heaven's sake, sack Chris Bowen. While there's
1:44
Speaker 1: still the hope of saving Australia. It's Labour's great global
1:49
Speaker 1: warming scheme. It's a disaster and even Labour now can't
1:53
Speaker 1: deny it. It's planned to destroy an eleterricity system that
1:58
Speaker 1: has worked with wind and solar that won't came to
2:02
Speaker 1: a screaming hole today, at least the New South Wales,
2:04
Speaker 1: where the government there signed a desperate deal to keep
2:07
Speaker 1: open the giant aeraring cul foight plant for two more
2:11
Speaker 1: years when it was due to be scrapped next year.
2:13
Speaker 1: And the reason is simple. There's simply not enough green
2:16
Speaker 1: electricity to replace it.
2:19
Speaker 3: It going out in twenty twenty five is a major shop.
2:23
Speaker 3: It leads to reliability risks, which means potential blackouts, and
2:27
Speaker 3: it also would lead to a to a spiking prices.
2:31
Speaker 1: Now, the deal that Utelfask governments come to with the
2:36
Speaker 1: powerpline operators so it's not that important. Just though it's
2:39
Speaker 1: an underwriting deal, it's probably going to cost taxpace hundreds
2:41
Speaker 1: of millions of dollars. But the big point here is
2:45
Speaker 1: that wherever you now look, Labour's global warming obsession is
2:49
Speaker 1: destroying our reliable electricity supply and now also supplies of gas.
2:55
Speaker 1: And the days are coming. I mean if you try to,
2:59
Speaker 1: you know, put put on the lights or turn on
3:02
Speaker 1: the heating, that we nothing. Now we're shutting down the
3:07
Speaker 1: country or Labor is because of the most destructive public
3:11
Speaker 1: policy in our lifetimes. And the worst is that Labor
3:16
Speaker 1: is still refusing to grab hold of the one thing,
3:19
Speaker 1: or at least one of the things that could still
3:21
Speaker 1: save us from some of the terrible consequences of its
3:26
Speaker 1: religious obsession, and that is nuclear power. Let's go back.
3:32
Speaker 1: It's now seventeen years since Labor under Kevin Rudd decided
3:36
Speaker 1: about global warming. Climate change, its new moral crusade.
3:40
Speaker 4: High sage is the great moral challenge of our.
3:44
Speaker 1: Generation, and since then, Labour's global warming policies and also
3:50
Speaker 1: the liberal policies because they quite often because they were
3:52
Speaker 1: too scared to say no, help to destroy one third
3:56
Speaker 1: of our power stations, leaving US so short of electricity
4:00
Speaker 1: that the Strand Energy Market Operator warned of potential blackouts
4:03
Speaker 1: next summer in New South Wales and Victoria. Now Victoria
4:07
Speaker 1: went even further. It even banned gas exploration on land
4:12
Speaker 1: for a decade. It still bans fracking and we've just
4:17
Speaker 1: found out it has been sitting on warnings that it
4:19
Speaker 1: could run out of gas in two years. I mean,
4:22
Speaker 1: this is just insane. In fact, you know with electricity,
4:28
Speaker 1: AMA Stranded Energy Market Operator is now paying some manufacturers
4:31
Speaker 1: big bundies are actually shut down whenever the districity supplies
4:36
Speaker 1: are tighted. Can you believe that? So you've got to
4:39
Speaker 1: ask yourself, which manufacturer needing a lot of electricity or
4:43
Speaker 1: gas or whatever is going to invest in this country.
4:46
Speaker 1: Opportunity to pit it today was right.
4:49
Speaker 4: Businesses won't remain in our country if there's a disruption
4:53
Speaker 4: to their power supply. There's ninety percent of the twenty
4:55
Speaker 4: four to seven baseload power that goes out of the
4:58
Speaker 4: system by twenty thirty four, and without gas and the
5:01
Speaker 4: ability to firm up with base load power, we are
5:06
Speaker 4: going to have disruption and increase prices.
5:10
Speaker 1: It's not as if you're not seeing what's at stake
5:14
Speaker 1: or any business failures in Australia tripple over the past
5:17
Speaker 1: two years, and New South Wales labor is seeing all
5:20
Speaker 1: this unfolding under his own watch now, which explains today's
5:23
Speaker 1: the other keep its biggest cull Fard POWERstation going for
5:26
Speaker 1: two years or even four.
5:28
Speaker 3: The latest analysis from the Energy Market Operator says that
5:31
Speaker 3: we have reliability gaps coming to us from twenty twenty
5:35
Speaker 3: five to twenty twenty seven. We have to keep the
5:38
Speaker 3: lights on and prices down.
5:42
Speaker 1: So this iceberg that the whole country is steering into
5:45
Speaker 1: is now so obvious that even Chris Bowen, the global
5:49
Speaker 1: extreams is our federal energy and climate changements, had to cheer.
5:53
Speaker 1: In New South.
5:54
Speaker 5: Wales the Ararian power station should be open, not a
5:58
Speaker 5: day longer than it should be and closed a day
6:00
Speaker 5: earlier than it should. I think the New South Wales
6:01
Speaker 5: government has done a good job in negotiating that. Ensuring
6:06
Speaker 5: that you have that energy in the system as we
6:09
Speaker 5: make that transition is I think appropriately.
6:12
Speaker 1: So we're facing a real crisis right The green energy
6:16
Speaker 1: is simply not coming online likewis promise. It just isn't
6:19
Speaker 1: and it's costing a bond more, but Chris Bones still
6:22
Speaker 1: will not pull back. In fact, it's doubling down. He
6:26
Speaker 1: and Pram minus Anthony ALBINIZI now spending billions and billions
6:29
Speaker 1: of your dollars on more hair brain green schemes like
6:32
Speaker 1: brain that they'll find one that will save us. Green
6:36
Speaker 1: hydrogen proves at scale nowhere in the world's spending billions
6:41
Speaker 1: on that, hoping for this miracle green fuel to actually happen.
6:45
Speaker 1: There's another billion dollars to build solar panels here that
6:48
Speaker 1: shared with the Queensland government when there's already a glut
6:51
Speaker 1: of these panels in the world thanks to China. And
6:53
Speaker 1: today another crazy scheme half a billion dollars to persuade
6:56
Speaker 1: businesses to build batteries here as a backup for windens
6:59
Speaker 1: sole the plants build them. In Australia, it's.
7:03
Speaker 6: A matter of supporting in the initial stages.
7:09
Speaker 7: Industries to grow.
7:10
Speaker 6: We haven't backed our own industries and our own people.
7:17
Speaker 1: But here's the government splashing your money on batteries, you know,
7:22
Speaker 1: in its vain attempt to find something, you know, picking winners,
7:27
Speaker 1: when even its own Treasury Department says it doesn't make
7:31
Speaker 1: sense to invest in batteries. We can buy them much
7:34
Speaker 1: cheaper overseas. We're not never going to compete. But the
7:36
Speaker 1: Industry Minister today reckons, well, these normal laws of economics
7:41
Speaker 1: don't apply to this government.
7:44
Speaker 6: Both Treasury and the Productivity Commission have said Australia doesn't
7:47
Speaker 6: have the capacity to build a sustainable battery manufacturing industry.
7:51
Speaker 8: What's your response to their critique.
7:54
Speaker 9: Well, a lot of it is orthodox thinking about just
7:57
Speaker 9: relying on our comparative advantage or whenever any one says
8:00
Speaker 9: that to you, it's about just maintaining the old diganship mentality.
8:06
Speaker 1: It's like a government to denying the existence of gravity.
8:09
Speaker 1: This is going to go horribly wrong. But the worst
8:12
Speaker 1: of it all is that this government still refuses to
8:15
Speaker 1: look at the one zero missions technology we know does work,
8:21
Speaker 1: works already in thirty two countries and will provide electricity
8:25
Speaker 1: around the clock twenty four to seven. And that of
8:28
Speaker 1: course is nuclear power. And I asked you to try
8:30
Speaker 1: to explain this. Of the world's twenty largest economies, right
8:37
Speaker 1: advanced economies, Australia is the only one that doesn't use
8:42
Speaker 1: nuclear power, or doesn't want to in fact bans it. Australia,
8:48
Speaker 1: How does that work. We've got crippling prices, power prices,
8:51
Speaker 1: we've got shortages, the whole green energy project falling apart,
8:56
Speaker 1: with your electricity and your gas to your home no
8:58
Speaker 1: longer guaranteed in some power. Here is a Labor government saying, well,
9:03
Speaker 1: despite all that, nuclear power must still be banned Save Australia.
9:10
Speaker 1: Sack Chris Bowen. But all these calls out of sack
9:19
Speaker 1: another Alberaniz. The government minister the Immigration was Andrew Giles
9:23
Speaker 1: over its latest disaster. Look, I think his critics are
9:26
Speaker 1: missing the big picture here. Andrew Charles is just a
9:29
Speaker 1: scapegoat for Anthony Albanezi. And why isn't the Prime Minister
9:33
Speaker 1: then under the gorilla for another terrible policy call? Proof
9:38
Speaker 1: coming up? Andrew Giles today did finally come out of
9:41
Speaker 1: witness protection to face the media and explain his role
9:44
Speaker 1: in an alleged murder. How was it that the Administrative
9:49
Speaker 1: Appeals Tribunal overturned a decision to throw out Emmanuel Saki,
9:54
Speaker 1: who Sudanese throw him out of the country and letting
9:58
Speaker 1: him free instead to then legedly murder Bosco Minurano. Well
10:04
Speaker 1: it's not my fault, said Andrew Joles today, just he
10:07
Speaker 1: had wanted this alleged killer sent back to Sudan.
10:11
Speaker 10: We very strongly argued against his visa, which was canceled
10:16
Speaker 10: being revoked. We argued very strongly for the grounds of
10:20
Speaker 10: community safety, which are at the highest priority of the
10:24
Speaker 10: ministry or direction and of our consideration of all of
10:27
Speaker 10: these matters. That was what we put to the Administrative
10:30
Speaker 10: Appeals Tribunal. The tribunal made a different decision.
10:35
Speaker 1: Except, as I showed last night, that's not the full story.
10:38
Speaker 1: Because the Tribunal freedom Manuel Saki after Jarles in January
10:42
Speaker 1: issued a new director of saying, don't be so quick
10:46
Speaker 1: to throw out foreign criminals if they've been in Australia
10:48
Speaker 1: for a long time, and Saki was exactly one of those.
10:51
Speaker 1: He'd been here since he was twelve. The tribunal noted
10:54
Speaker 1: exactly that, followed exactly what Charles had told it to
10:57
Speaker 1: and released Saki despite its long criminal record, leaving the
11:00
Speaker 1: family of the man who's now allegedly killed stunned.
11:04
Speaker 11: This could have been prevented, definitely could have been prevented.
11:07
Speaker 11: It should have never happened to wake up and find
11:09
Speaker 11: out the person was out in the public and has
11:11
Speaker 11: previous choices, not just in one state another state, and
11:14
Speaker 11: he had just got released. I'm like, oh, this person
11:16
Speaker 11: is like they should not be out in the public.
11:18
Speaker 11: Why would they even let somebody out like that.
11:20
Speaker 1: We're not restrictions, so sack Giles, they say, But I
11:24
Speaker 1: ask you, whose idea was it really this new rule
11:27
Speaker 1: to avoid throwing out a foreign criminal if it's been
11:29
Speaker 1: here for years? Anthony Albanzi, do you remember when he
11:34
Speaker 1: became Prime minis he made a big deal about how
11:37
Speaker 1: the Liberals had upset our neighbors had stupid Scott Morrison.
11:41
Speaker 1: In New Zealand's case, Morrison sending back Kiwi criminals had
11:45
Speaker 1: lived here for a long time, making it just center
11:49
Speaker 1: durn so very cross. So when Albanez he met with
11:53
Speaker 1: New Zealand's worst ever labor Prime Minister Cinder, returned than
11:57
Speaker 1: the media superstar. He gave her a makeup present, which
12:00
Speaker 1: is exactly this change to let more foreign criminals stay
12:05
Speaker 1: in Australia if there being here for ages. And Adirn
12:08
Speaker 1: said thank you.
12:10
Speaker 7: But in my mind, yes, this does represent a reset.
12:13
Speaker 6: Psych Australia has gone out of the Nordy corner. We're
12:17
Speaker 6: been in the Nordy corner for nine years.
12:22
Speaker 1: Australia's out of the Nordy corner. But there's someone dead,
12:26
Speaker 1: So why is Jiles being flogged for a policy that
12:29
Speaker 1: Albanizy wanted? Joining me is our Thursday Regular Nationals front
12:32
Speaker 1: pitch of Barnaby Joyce, the former Deputy Prime Minister. Barnaby,
12:36
Speaker 1: great to see you again. Look, the Prime Minister changed
12:39
Speaker 1: the policy to please New Zealand's just sinder Adern and
12:43
Speaker 1: now in Australia is dead allegedly as a consequence. Isn't
12:46
Speaker 1: this on him and not the Immigration minister?
12:51
Speaker 12: Well it is, and I think it's very insightful that
12:55
Speaker 12: piece the naughty corner. Unfortunately, the criminals through out of
12:59
Speaker 12: the naughty jail, they're walking the streets and it seems
13:02
Speaker 12: like that the Prime Minister was the person who inspired
13:07
Speaker 12: this change.
13:08
Speaker 13: Now we get this eternal things. It's nothing to do
13:12
Speaker 13: with us.
13:12
Speaker 12: It's like the Labor Party is just pining for opposition.
13:16
Speaker 12: They just want to be the opposition again. They were
13:17
Speaker 12: so good at being the opposition because they're absolutely and
13:21
Speaker 12: absolute fiasco of being the government, whether it's power, whether
13:24
Speaker 12: it's letting criminals is loose on the street. I mean
13:27
Speaker 12: we see at the costs of living, the whole thing
13:30
Speaker 12: they had defense force. I mean it's a fiasco and
13:34
Speaker 12: the number one, number one clown at the fiasco circus
13:38
Speaker 12: unfortunately as the Prime Minister.
13:42
Speaker 1: Well sure the ring masks. Another thing that's really hit
13:46
Speaker 1: the fan, the great global warming scheme to get rid
13:49
Speaker 1: of coal and gas. Now the news has government, you know,
13:53
Speaker 1: it's panicking. It's underwriting a col Fard power plant Ererring
13:58
Speaker 1: to stay open for at least two more years. Believe
14:00
Speaker 1: the Victorian government is contemplating something similar there. I mean,
14:03
Speaker 1: all this, doesn't this absolutely underline the need to at
14:08
Speaker 1: least consider drop the ban on nuclear power.
14:14
Speaker 12: Well, it's not a religion, it's a cult. What we're
14:17
Speaker 12: having is this sort of cult like approach. They run
14:20
Speaker 12: to the door and say.
14:21
Speaker 13: Here are the pamphlets, the world is about to end.
14:23
Speaker 13: And if you don't.
14:24
Speaker 12: Agree with them, they go Denia, you're not a believer,
14:27
Speaker 12: and they run.
14:27
Speaker 13: Off to another house and knock on their door.
14:30
Speaker 12: But you know, we're seeing it. It's just that the
14:32
Speaker 12: reality is just screaming at us. If he close down
14:35
Speaker 12: a Rahring, those lights will go out. It's very very simple.
14:39
Speaker 12: It's like the person who tries to break their horse
14:41
Speaker 12: into eat rocks, you know, eat rocks, eat rocks, and
14:43
Speaker 12: one day they say, you know just about how the
14:45
Speaker 12: damn thing broken in, but it died. I mean, this
14:48
Speaker 12: is just this lunacy, this loopy lunacy, that intermittent power
14:54
Speaker 12: swindle factories, soular factories, the countryside covered in a cobs
15:00
Speaker 12: webs of transmission lines that are Australia will.
15:03
Speaker 13: Run an economy on a windmill.
15:06
Speaker 12: I mean, if you want to see how it's going,
15:07
Speaker 12: not one major manufacturer is making their way to Australia.
15:12
Speaker 12: They're all on their way out because they tell us
15:15
Speaker 12: what we want to hear. They say, look, they're kind
15:17
Speaker 12: of crazy in Australia. Just tell them whatever they want
15:19
Speaker 12: to hear. They're kind of loopy, and they say, oh yes, great,
15:21
Speaker 12: we're going to save the save the planet zero missions
15:24
Speaker 12: by twenty three rah rah off, you go, you lunatic.
15:27
Speaker 12: And then they just leave us. Then they just leave us,
15:30
Speaker 12: and a rah ring is now even the left saying,
15:32
Speaker 12: oh hang on, if we shut it.
15:34
Speaker 1: Down, the lots go out, Yeah, well done.
15:36
Speaker 13: Cyclone absolutely one hundred percent correct.
15:41
Speaker 1: Incredible that no one thought, oh look if you shut
15:45
Speaker 1: all these culfard power stations. We might not have enough
15:48
Speaker 1: power because we haven't made it figured a way to
15:50
Speaker 1: make all the alternatives work. Barnaby, this is really embarrassing.
15:55
Speaker 1: Anthony would easy today try a desperate excuse, a desperate
15:58
Speaker 1: rowback on some thing he failed to do on Tuesday.
16:02
Speaker 1: On Tuesday, refused to criticize or even comment on a
16:05
Speaker 1: decision by the Chief prosecuted the International Criminal Court to
16:08
Speaker 1: seek warrants for the arrest of Israel's Prime Minister for
16:11
Speaker 1: alleged war crimes along with the leaders of her mass
16:14
Speaker 1: as if he was just another terrorist too. Now a
16:17
Speaker 1: group of rabbis that they were begging him to take
16:19
Speaker 1: a stand for once, and today he trotted out this excuse.
16:23
Speaker 1: He claim to God asked an obtuse question on Tuesday
16:27
Speaker 1: and then falsely claimed we hadn't quoted all he said
16:30
Speaker 1: that day.
16:31
Speaker 6: Here is I got asked an obtuse question yesterday or
16:36
Speaker 6: the day before, and today I'll make this point. What
16:40
Speaker 6: we've been very clear about, and I was clear about
16:43
Speaker 6: two days ago. Didn't get a run in any of
16:47
Speaker 6: the quotes that he is, but I made it clear
16:50
Speaker 6: a couple of days ago. Our opposition to what happened
16:54
Speaker 6: on October seventh, once again, to the terrorist actions of
16:58
Speaker 6: ha Mass there is now equent. It's between a terrorist
17:01
Speaker 6: organization like AMAS and should not be compared with any
17:05
Speaker 6: nation state.
17:07
Speaker 1: Barnaby, that is so embarrassingly misleading, to put it mildly,
17:12
Speaker 1: I've checked everything out with As he said on the
17:14
Speaker 1: record on Tuesday, he never made that point about more
17:17
Speaker 1: of the equivalents. Then he's still not criticizing the International
17:20
Speaker 1: Criminal Court now. He wouldn't even say today of Australia
17:24
Speaker 1: would or would not arrest Benjamin Now the Israeli Prime minister.
17:28
Speaker 1: Here if the court did endorse the prosecutor's requests for
17:31
Speaker 1: a warrant, or even whether we quit the body, should
17:34
Speaker 1: we quit the International Criminal Court over this scandal?
17:39
Speaker 12: Well, if this is the direction they're going, if they're
17:42
Speaker 12: going to create a democratically elected government and say that
17:47
Speaker 12: that is a criminal action, were they saying that the
17:51
Speaker 12: people who elected them partook in a criminal action to
17:56
Speaker 12: elected democratic government?
17:58
Speaker 13: We keep on missing the number one fact here.
18:00
Speaker 12: Hamas is a terrorist organization that on October seventh, in
18:06
Speaker 12: twenty twenty three, invaded a country, raped women, mutilated people,
18:13
Speaker 12: tour bodies apart, carded corpses around their streets, took hostages
18:18
Speaker 12: and not what you would expect would happen. There was
18:23
Speaker 12: the retaliation of the country that was invaded to stop
18:26
Speaker 12: this happening. Now, if a mass wants the water stop surrender,
18:30
Speaker 12: that's how you stopped what surrender and hand.
18:32
Speaker 1: Back the hostages.
18:34
Speaker 12: And yes, there'll be certain people who will have to
18:36
Speaker 12: absolutely and rightfully face the music. But this idea, well,
18:40
Speaker 12: what will zoo Is will say, Well, because you defended
18:44
Speaker 12: your nation and retaliated against an absolutely barbaric act, Israel
18:48
Speaker 12: are criminals. The International Criminal Court are casting an dispersion
18:55
Speaker 12: against themselves against themselves because if you sit back and
18:58
Speaker 12: think about it, if that had happened to Australia, what
19:01
Speaker 12: would Australia want its armed forces? What would Australia want
19:05
Speaker 12: its government to do if we woke up one day
19:07
Speaker 12: and found out that in Sydney women had been raped,
19:10
Speaker 12: babies mutilated, people just shot dead, murdered, hostages taken. They
19:15
Speaker 12: just charged in and invaded us. And if we said, yeah,
19:17
Speaker 12: we're going to deal with this, We're going to deal
19:19
Speaker 12: with this in the most dramatic and immediate way and
19:21
Speaker 12: without equivocation, and they said, well, obviously the Australian Prime
19:25
Speaker 12: Minister is a criminal and should go to jail.
19:29
Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, Barnaby, it's just sickening what I'm seeing. Yes,
19:34
Speaker 1: I don't recognize my country, particularly not under Anthony Albanezi.
19:38
Speaker 1: I don't know what games playing, whether it's got asy
19:41
Speaker 1: telling him, don't.
19:42
Speaker 13: You know, it's really simple, it's really simple. He's weak.
19:47
Speaker 12: You know.
19:47
Speaker 13: I don't think he's an anti Semite.
19:48
Speaker 12: I don't think he's to be honest, necessarily a bad
19:52
Speaker 12: person or anything like that.
19:53
Speaker 13: I don't think that. You know, politically I've got differences,
19:56
Speaker 13: but he's a weak man.
19:57
Speaker 12: He is very weak and you can't have the leader
20:00
Speaker 12: of the nation being weak.
20:04
Speaker 1: I think he's also playing it through a purely political spectrum.
20:08
Speaker 1: What will get me the votes? When I think one
20:11
Speaker 1: day you look back at your career and you'll think
20:13
Speaker 1: I tried that for votes. Should be shamed of myself.
20:18
Speaker 1: Banaby Joyce, thank you so much, indeed for your time.
20:22
Speaker 1: After the break, Britain goes to the polls after this
20:25
Speaker 1: prime Minister makes the most disastrous election announcement I've ever seen.
20:31
Speaker 1: You've got to see to believe it. I tell you what,
20:34
Speaker 1: this election is going to be so ugly. Now, if
20:42
Speaker 1: you know someone who's very anti Israel thinks it's overreacting,
20:46
Speaker 1: tell them to come to the TV in five minutes
20:49
Speaker 1: to watch what I've got to show, and let's see
20:51
Speaker 1: if they still think that after this. Meanwhile, I've seen
20:55
Speaker 1: the most disastrous election announcement ever a British primi, Sir
21:00
Speaker 1: Rishi Sunake not called an early election, which is already
21:03
Speaker 1: a bizarre decision given the polls put his Conservative party
21:06
Speaker 1: more than twenty points behind Labor's heading for a smashing
21:10
Speaker 1: But worse, he said that voters should back the way
21:12
Speaker 1: that he's been managing stuff. At the same time, he's
21:15
Speaker 1: shown that he couldn't even manage to check the weather
21:18
Speaker 1: outside before holding a press conference out there without even
21:21
Speaker 1: an umbrella, while a protest there was playing at full blast,
21:26
Speaker 1: a sort of pro Labor ditty. Things can only get better.
21:31
Speaker 1: Our economy is.
21:31
Speaker 14: Now growing faster than anyone predicted, outpacing Germany, France and
21:35
Speaker 14: the United States, and this morning it was confirmed that
21:39
Speaker 14: inflation is back to normal. This means that the pressure
21:42
Speaker 14: on prices will ease and mortgage rates will come down.
21:47
Speaker 14: This is proof that the plan and priorities I sat
21:49
Speaker 14: out are working well.
21:51
Speaker 1: The front pages. Let sunek have it. You know it
21:53
Speaker 1: can only get wetter and drown and out. Join me
21:57
Speaker 1: from London's gb News presenter Patrick Christy's look. Patrick, I've
22:02
Speaker 1: got to say, what a stupid way to an announce
22:05
Speaker 1: an election.
22:07
Speaker 7: Absolutely appalling.
22:09
Speaker 15: The idea that they couldn't even organize an umbrella or
22:11
Speaker 15: a canopy or stop a bloke blaring a song at
22:14
Speaker 15: in whilst it was happening does not bode well for
22:17
Speaker 15: the quality of this Conservative campaign, but it is symptomatic
22:20
Speaker 15: of the kind of government, unfortunately, that we have had
22:23
Speaker 15: in recent history. He also chose to start his speech
22:26
Speaker 15: by reminding us all of that time the government locked
22:29
Speaker 15: us down for ages and smashed our economy to pieces
22:32
Speaker 15: with things like the furlough scheme.
22:33
Speaker 7: So that was an odd way to begin.
22:36
Speaker 15: But then things only got worse for the Prime Minister
22:38
Speaker 15: heavy rainfall. Things have actually got worse today as well,
22:42
Speaker 15: because it's emerged that the net migration numbers are out.
22:45
Speaker 15: They came out over here in the last half an
22:47
Speaker 15: hour or so. They are are around six hundred and
22:51
Speaker 15: eighty thousand people a year in twenty twenty three. That
22:56
Speaker 15: is down from a record level of seven hundred and
23:00
Speaker 15: sixty thousand people, still astonishingly high.
23:03
Speaker 7: All of this under a Conservative government. There is one
23:05
Speaker 7: saving grace.
23:06
Speaker 15: Though, Andrew at Nigel Farage in the last hour has
23:10
Speaker 15: announced that he will not be standing against the Conservatives
23:15
Speaker 15: at the next election, so Nigel Prade will not be
23:17
Speaker 15: doing that. The other question about all of this is
23:19
Speaker 15: the timing of this election.
23:21
Speaker 7: Andrew.
23:21
Speaker 15: We've got the Euros football, the Glastonbury Music Festival, school
23:25
Speaker 15: holidays up in Scotland and crucially I've had to cancel
23:29
Speaker 15: my honeymoon.
23:33
Speaker 1: Patrick. I'm so sorry for you. That's bad luck. But
23:38
Speaker 1: let me take you back to the to Nigel Farag.
23:42
Speaker 1: He of course is the Brixit, the former bridget leader
23:45
Speaker 1: his Reform Party was hoping to make some gains. But
23:48
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think the polls were shown
23:50
Speaker 1: they'd win a single seat because this winner take up.
23:53
Speaker 1: You know, there's no preference swapping with your system as
23:58
Speaker 1: first past the post. Why would he rule himself out?
24:04
Speaker 15: Well, I think Andrew the opportunity to go and earn
24:09
Speaker 15: quite a bit of money, and dare I say, prestige
24:12
Speaker 15: following Donald Trump around America for the American election campaign
24:16
Speaker 15: is maybe a little bit more appealing than campaigning in
24:20
Speaker 15: wet and windy market towns in northern England.
24:22
Speaker 7: And so therefore I think Nigel Branch has made a decision.
24:25
Speaker 15: That might only suit his skin, tan his bank balance,
24:28
Speaker 15: but also maybe also his prestige in that sense. I
24:33
Speaker 15: think there is also a sense generally, Andrew that let
24:36
Speaker 15: the Tories just suffer a massive kicking at the hands
24:39
Speaker 15: of labor. Let labor run this country into the ground
24:42
Speaker 15: for a couple of years everybody sees what a labor
24:44
Speaker 15: government might actually look like, and then there could be
24:47
Speaker 15: the opportunity for some kind of re emergence of a
24:50
Speaker 15: quote unquote truly conservative party in Britain. I mean, that's
24:54
Speaker 15: a long game, isn't it, And unfortunately we all have
24:56
Speaker 15: to suffer in order for that to happen. But maybe
24:59
Speaker 15: that is best thing for the country in the long run.
25:03
Speaker 1: So why did Richie sune with the Poles as they
25:07
Speaker 1: are right saying this is sunshine hine with reth you
25:12
Speaker 1: are going to be absolutely hammered if you go now
25:17
Speaker 1: and it's gone now.
25:18
Speaker 15: Why yeah, look the other breaking news about this last
25:22
Speaker 15: night was unbelievable. Andrew, which was that conservative MP's last
25:27
Speaker 15: night after he denounced the election, tried to submit letters
25:31
Speaker 15: of no confidence in him to get him sacked to
25:33
Speaker 15: stop the election.
25:35
Speaker 7: It is a complete past.
25:37
Speaker 15: He's done it because in his view, I think he
25:40
Speaker 15: saw inflation was down to Miss Lewes's level for three years.
25:43
Speaker 15: I think he saw that other European countries are now
25:46
Speaker 15: trying to copy our Rwanda plan, which gives that a
25:48
Speaker 15: bit of a boost.
25:49
Speaker 7: Isn't it really invasive Labor? Who will reverse all of that?
25:52
Speaker 15: I do think you just thought, look, this is, believe
25:55
Speaker 15: it or not, as good as he's going to get.
25:57
Speaker 15: The other very cynical aspect of all of this that
26:00
Speaker 15: he's just had enough. Actually he's just had enough, and
26:03
Speaker 15: he thinks, you know what, let's just go to the
26:05
Speaker 15: country and put us all out of our misery. He
26:07
Speaker 15: could have gone for a longer campaign and let the
26:10
Speaker 15: Labor Party decide to eat itself apart. In the last week,
26:13
Speaker 15: the Labor Party has decided to make it easier to
26:16
Speaker 15: change gender so that would be more blows of women's
26:18
Speaker 15: changing rooms, and then decided to make an enemy of Israel.
26:21
Speaker 15: So those are two things that the Conservative Party can
26:24
Speaker 15: hammer labor with already.
26:26
Speaker 7: So we'll see what comes.
26:27
Speaker 1: Out, Yes we will, indeed, but gee, the owners who
26:33
Speaker 1: are terrible. But as said Song was saying, as Richie
26:36
Speaker 1: Sooner was standing with in the rain, you know things
26:40
Speaker 1: can only get better from here. But maybe not, maybe not.
26:44
Speaker 1: Maybe it's going to prove us wrong there. Petrochristies, thank
26:46
Speaker 1: you so much for your time after the break something.
26:52
Speaker 1: All those anti Israel students out there attacking Israel, defending
26:57
Speaker 1: even her mass something, they should see footage of five
27:01
Speaker 1: Israeli teenage women captured by Hamas. Watch this, you may
27:07
Speaker 1: understand exactly why Israel does have to fight. Okay, I
27:16
Speaker 1: want now to show you some video just release that
27:19
Speaker 1: should end so many lies and so much denial, will it.
27:24
Speaker 1: Many anti Israel protests seem totally ignorant of the evil
27:28
Speaker 1: that Israel is confronting in this war in Gaza. They
27:31
Speaker 1: don't seem to understand why it's such a crime for
27:35
Speaker 1: our Prime minister to wait a couple of days before saying, well, actually,
27:38
Speaker 1: there is no equivalence between the leader of Israel and
27:41
Speaker 1: the leaders of Hamas. We even have leaders of the
27:45
Speaker 1: student protests saying they support Hermas.
27:49
Speaker 10: You've also got to send a message to Hamas to
27:51
Speaker 10: release the hostages, don't you.
27:53
Speaker 8: Well, I actually say that Hamas deserve our unconditional support,
27:58
Speaker 8: not because I agree with the strategy.
28:00
Speaker 16: You can't condemn what her mass did on October.
28:03
Speaker 8: I will not condemn what ham As did. We must
28:04
Speaker 8: be unconditional, but we must be critical also, right, No,
28:08
Speaker 8: I did not condemn.
28:09
Speaker 1: Now, I'm not sure people that that are evil. I
28:13
Speaker 1: just think they're totally totally ignorant. So I hope that
28:18
Speaker 1: those people and the students chanting Hamas calls the destroy
28:21
Speaker 1: Israel from the river to the sea, at least look
28:24
Speaker 1: at what I'm about to show you, and I hope
28:28
Speaker 1: you help them to get to see it. You share
28:30
Speaker 1: the YouTube clip or whatever. Now, caution, this is extremely
28:34
Speaker 1: confronting video. I showed for only two reasons. One because
28:38
Speaker 1: the families of the teenage girls shown here all the
28:41
Speaker 1: girls are nineteen years old, want you to see it.
28:45
Speaker 1: And two because it challenges those lies and those evasions. Now,
28:50
Speaker 1: this is the moment. This video is of the moment
28:52
Speaker 1: that Harmas Theis on October seven, captured five teenagers like
28:56
Speaker 1: I say, all women of the Israeli army in a
29:00
Speaker 1: raid on they were spotters. Apparently they killed the has
29:04
Speaker 1: the Amasteris killed about sixty soldiers there. They had these
29:08
Speaker 1: five girls and took them hostage. They are still hostages
29:12
Speaker 1: or dead, we don't know. Eight months later, and once
29:26
Speaker 1: again a caution, very confronting. This is how those of
29:29
Speaker 1: US terrorists talk to and of these women. One film
29:34
Speaker 1: was later filmed, and I certainly won't show you this
29:37
Speaker 1: with the crutch of her pants filled with blood. Joining
30:03
Speaker 1: me is the panel, James the First and Louis Eliot
30:05
Speaker 1: business consultant, Hobert City councilor. James is of course one
30:09
Speaker 1: of their hosts here on Sky News and doing terrific
30:14
Speaker 1: stuff too. James, seeing the reality, you know that so
30:21
Speaker 1: many people demonizing Israel are simply ignorant. That's my That's
30:26
Speaker 1: what I'm hoping, Or am I wrong?
30:29
Speaker 17: I think sadly, Andrew, you're wrong. I wish you were right,
30:32
Speaker 17: because ignorance can be overcome with education. But I think
30:35
Speaker 17: we've not got a problem for ignorance. We've got a
30:37
Speaker 17: problem of people who are blinded by a lust for
30:40
Speaker 17: power or blinded by a warped ideology or blinded by
30:44
Speaker 17: bloody hatred. Labor politicians are not ignorant. Anthony Albaniez is
30:48
Speaker 17: not ignorant. Penny Wong isn't ignorant. Ed Husick isn't ignorant.
30:51
Speaker 17: They're simply blinded by a lust for power where they
30:54
Speaker 17: honestly believe there's more votes in the Muslim community than
30:57
Speaker 17: in the Jewish community, hence their support for a two
31:00
Speaker 17: state solution while hostages are still being held. When it
31:04
Speaker 17: comes to UNI students, they're blinded by a warped ideology
31:08
Speaker 17: where they divide the whole world into oppressors and the oppressed,
31:12
Speaker 17: and it's beyond their comprehension to imagine Jews as being victims.
31:16
Speaker 17: It's not ignorance, it's ideology. And then we've got the
31:20
Speaker 17: problem of just bloody hatred, which unfortunately is rife in Australia.
31:24
Speaker 17: We saw right after October seven people rejoicing at the
31:28
Speaker 17: attack on Jews on our own Sydney opera house. We've
31:31
Speaker 17: had countless mms and preachers in Western Sydney celebrating and
31:37
Speaker 17: glorying in those attacks. So I wish that you were right.
31:40
Speaker 17: I wish it was ignorance, because then we could just
31:43
Speaker 17: educate people and they would see clearly. But you can't
31:46
Speaker 17: educate lust for power, warped ideology, or just bloody hatred.
31:51
Speaker 17: Those things are much more difficult to overcome. And that's
31:54
Speaker 17: the dilemma we've got.
31:58
Speaker 1: Louise Elliott, what does that video tell you? Like I say,
32:01
Speaker 1: those five nineteen year olds have not been seen since
32:05
Speaker 1: one of them was filmed being apparently with her ankle
32:10
Speaker 1: tendons slashed. I don't know what that means. I think
32:13
Speaker 1: we can all guess. And the crutch of her pants
32:15
Speaker 1: filled with blood was being loaded taken off a truck
32:21
Speaker 1: that had brought her to Israel, to a gaza. What
32:25
Speaker 1: do you take from this video?
32:29
Speaker 18: Yes, I watched the full length of that video this
32:32
Speaker 18: morning actually, and you've definitely actually chosen disturbingly some of
32:37
Speaker 18: the milder scenes. The full video for me, is one
32:40
Speaker 18: of those things that leaves a permanent imprint on your brain.
32:44
Speaker 18: You will never not see what you have seen, and
32:47
Speaker 18: from my perspective, a little bit of me, I guess,
32:50
Speaker 18: died inside because you think this is not humans. These
32:53
Speaker 18: are rabid animals doing something and they've lost all of
32:57
Speaker 18: their humanity and see those girls and just to try
33:02
Speaker 18: and it's just unfathomable what I saw, And like I say,
33:05
Speaker 18: it makes me so sad. And it makes me even
33:07
Speaker 18: sad that we have people who are unable. Like James said,
33:12
Speaker 18: it's not really ignorance, they're almost they're putting ignorance aside.
33:17
Speaker 18: They're determined not to see it, determined not to see
33:20
Speaker 18: the absolute horrors that have unfolded, determined not to see
33:23
Speaker 18: that Israel have no choice but to defend themselves and
33:28
Speaker 18: eradicate this persistent threat and look what they had done
33:32
Speaker 18: to their people. I encourage people to have a look
33:37
Speaker 18: at it if you can, because the realities of what's
33:39
Speaker 18: happening we need to know about and it needs to
33:42
Speaker 18: be shared.
33:44
Speaker 1: Yes, I think I need to add one more piece
33:46
Speaker 1: of that picture. The commanders of those terrorists you saw
33:50
Speaker 1: have said, while Hamas is there, they will try to
33:54
Speaker 1: do this again and again and again to Israel. So
33:58
Speaker 1: while a mus lives, this is their objective James's showed
34:03
Speaker 1: earlier in the show. The Premister came up with a
34:05
Speaker 1: bizarre excuse for not saying two days ago that the
34:07
Speaker 1: International Criminal Court was wrong, that no the leaders of
34:11
Speaker 1: Israel and the leaders of US were not birds of
34:13
Speaker 1: a feather. They were not morally equivalent. Just the repeater's
34:18
Speaker 1: excuse here, it.
34:19
Speaker 6: Is I got asked an optious question.
34:24
Speaker 1: He wasn't James asked an obscure questions asked very direct one.
34:29
Speaker 1: If you agree with Joe Budden the International Criminal Court
34:31
Speaker 1: decision was outrageous, what do you make of his leadership here?
34:35
Speaker 17: Well, I wish I could make something of his leadership,
34:37
Speaker 17: but there's not much leadership to make anything of Andrew.
34:40
Speaker 17: If it wasn't for the opposition leader Peter Dutton, I
34:42
Speaker 17: don't think we'd have any leadership in this country. It's
34:45
Speaker 17: Peter Dutton who's provided leadership when it comes to anti Semitism,
34:48
Speaker 17: when it comes to immigration, when it comes to the border,
34:51
Speaker 17: when it comes to crime and order, and on and
34:53
Speaker 17: on we could go. Anthony Elbanezi is looking more and
34:56
Speaker 17: more like someone whose sole objective was to get into power,
35:00
Speaker 17: and now he's there, he's only objective is to retain power.
35:03
Speaker 17: So we've got a massive vacuum of leadership in this
35:06
Speaker 17: country and it's showing we've got chaos everywhere and that
35:10
Speaker 17: the problem is always leadership and the solution is always leadership.
35:14
Speaker 17: The sooner we get a leader in the lodge, the
35:16
Speaker 17: better our country will be, because we sure as hell
35:18
Speaker 17: don't have a leader right now.
35:21
Speaker 1: UIs Elia.
35:24
Speaker 18: I wholeheartedly agree with James from my perspective. I've been
35:28
Speaker 18: around forty odd years, about twenty of those I've cared
35:30
Speaker 18: about politics, and I can hand on heart say that
35:34
Speaker 18: mister Aberizi is the worst prime minister we've ever had.
35:36
Speaker 18: In my opinion. I'm prepared to give credit where credits due,
35:40
Speaker 18: regardless of the political stripe, and I've been looking for
35:43
Speaker 18: opportunities to think, Okay, he's stepped up and he's done
35:46
Speaker 18: a good job there, But to be honest, it's failure
35:48
Speaker 18: after failure, and they're getting more and more morally repugnant.
35:52
Speaker 18: He's pathetic and I cannot wait till the next election.
35:57
Speaker 1: I had a bit to do with Anthony Albanize before
36:00
Speaker 1: he became Labor leader, and I liked him. I still
36:03
Speaker 1: think he'd be a good bloke. But I am so
36:05
Speaker 1: bitterly disappointed. Jameson First and the wis Eliot, thank you
36:09
Speaker 1: both for your time after the break. Were you just
36:12
Speaker 1: when you think Trump haters couldn't get any lower. They
36:16
Speaker 1: make a film just premiered in the Calm Film Festival
36:20
Speaker 1: showing Donald Trump raping his then wife. That's my book
36:23
Speaker 1: of the week though, French genius who describes to France
36:26
Speaker 1: under a Muslim president, this man his guts. Every time
36:35
Speaker 1: you wonder how low the left can go to destroy
36:37
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, the answer is even lower. The left s ysteria,
36:41
Speaker 1: particularly from the media and showbiz. Look, it is sick.
36:45
Speaker 1: There were already, you know, the fake claim spread even
36:48
Speaker 1: by the FBI that Trump colluded with a Russia to
36:50
Speaker 1: steal the election that made him present. Well, as you
36:52
Speaker 1: know now totally false, huge investigation false. There are four
36:56
Speaker 1: criminal cases launched by Democrat prosecutors now to try to
36:59
Speaker 1: knock Trump out the race before the November election. There's
37:02
Speaker 1: also now today a new film just premiered him come
37:08
Speaker 1: again to destroy Donald Trump.
37:11
Speaker 2: It's the movie Donald Trump does not want you to see.
37:14
Speaker 2: It's called The Apprentice, and it's about Trump's rise to
37:18
Speaker 2: power in the nineteen eighties.
37:21
Speaker 1: Now, the big claim in this movie, the big money
37:23
Speaker 1: scene is this a scene so brutal that people in
37:27
Speaker 1: the audience even complained.
37:29
Speaker 2: But the most disturbing scene is where Trump is portrayed
37:32
Speaker 2: raping Evanna, a scene so violent it drew audible gasps
37:37
Speaker 2: from the audience and Can.
37:40
Speaker 1: In fact, Donald Trump denies there was any rape of
37:43
Speaker 1: his then wife Vanna and Sony Devana before her death.
37:47
Speaker 1: She actually said the story is totally without merit. On
37:50
Speaker 1: one occasion during nineteen eighty nine, mister Trump and I
37:52
Speaker 1: had marital relationship which you behave very differently towards me
37:55
Speaker 1: than he had during our marriage. As a woman, I
37:58
Speaker 1: felt violated as a loved tenderness which you normally exhibited
38:01
Speaker 1: towards me was absent. I refer to this as right.
38:03
Speaker 1: This was during a tense divorce where things get said,
38:07
Speaker 1: but I do not want my words to be interpreted
38:09
Speaker 1: in a literal or criminal sense. Joining me now is
38:14
Speaker 1: Sean Spicer, the first White House spokesman for Donald Trump
38:18
Speaker 1: as president. Sean Spicer, thank you for your time. What
38:21
Speaker 1: do you make of this film?
38:24
Speaker 19: Well, from the little that I've seen of it, at
38:26
Speaker 19: least the anecdotes that have come out of the Can's
38:28
Speaker 19: Film Festival, it sounds like another attempt to attack Donald Trump.
38:31
Speaker 16: It doesn't surprise me.
38:34
Speaker 19: Look, they've thrown everything but the kitchen sink at him
38:37
Speaker 19: since twenty sixteen, and the levels to which they sink
38:41
Speaker 19: Andrew never ceased to amaze me. These false allegations that
38:46
Speaker 19: come up in this and I get that they'll say
38:47
Speaker 19: that it's quasi fictional, but they know exactly what they're doing.
38:51
Speaker 19: They're releasing this at a critical time in the US
38:53
Speaker 19: election and trying to hurt him among women voters.
39:00
Speaker 1: Did you see the relations between Donald Trump and his
39:02
Speaker 1: then wife, Ivana or x wife.
39:04
Speaker 19: Sorry, Look, the times that I saw them interact were
39:08
Speaker 19: on the phone when he was president.
39:10
Speaker 16: She called a few times. That was it.
39:13
Speaker 19: There was always cordial and from what I understand, they
39:15
Speaker 19: maintained a very cordial relationship. But as far as some
39:19
Speaker 19: of the accusations that they try to make in this film,
39:22
Speaker 19: you know, the court record is clear as to what
39:27
Speaker 19: missus Trump meant by what she said at the time,
39:30
Speaker 19: and the idea that these filmmakers are trying to twist
39:33
Speaker 19: a situation clearly to affect the outcome of the election
39:36
Speaker 19: is pretty pathetic.
39:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, that never makes such a film about Barack Obama
39:42
Speaker 1: or something.
39:43
Speaker 19: I mean, it's just so well, but I I would
39:45
Speaker 19: just say, not just not just Barack.
39:47
Speaker 16: Obama, Andrew.
39:48
Speaker 19: But you think about these allegations that have come out
39:51
Speaker 19: against President Biden by a woman named Tara Reid. There's
39:55
Speaker 19: pretty disgusting allegations that have been leaked from his daughter Ashley's.
40:00
Speaker 16: Diary, that they have substantiated as hers.
40:03
Speaker 19: And yet no one in the media will barely ask
40:06
Speaker 19: a question, never mind validate the truthfulness that's in the
40:11
Speaker 19: diary of his own daughter. And yet here we go
40:14
Speaker 19: with another salacious attempt to smear Donald Trump. So it's
40:17
Speaker 19: actually it's one thing if there's a credible charge in
40:21
Speaker 19: the case of Joe Biden.
40:21
Speaker 16: I mean, you mentioned Barack Obama. But in the case
40:23
Speaker 16: of Joe Biden.
40:24
Speaker 19: There's a lot of stuff out there that no one
40:26
Speaker 19: will even discuss. It's almost taboo to bring up the subjects.
40:30
Speaker 19: And yet they'll go out and sensationalize something in which
40:32
Speaker 19: they have an actual court record for when it comes
40:35
Speaker 19: to Donald Trump, because they know that it'll sell.
40:40
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, the one criminal case the go to court so far,
40:45
Speaker 1: a case against Donald Trump, it seems to have exploded
40:48
Speaker 1: in the face of the prosecutors over the last few days.
40:51
Speaker 1: This was a claim, of course of Donald Trump falsified.
40:54
Speaker 1: Book by claiming payments is legal expenses when he was
40:58
Speaker 1: in fact literally paying hush money upon star Stormy Daniels,
41:02
Speaker 1: so you wouldn't talk about their alleged one night of fear.
41:05
Speaker 1: The payments allegedly went through Michael Cohen is then lawyer
41:10
Speaker 1: in the prosecution style witness, but Sean relying on Cohen's
41:14
Speaker 1: evidence stands out to have been perhaps a big, big mistake.
41:19
Speaker 16: Oh absolutely so. Two points on this. First, on the
41:21
Speaker 16: legal front.
41:23
Speaker 19: Look, this is a misdemeanor offense in the state of
41:26
Speaker 19: New York.
41:26
Speaker 16: Number one. Number two, the.
41:28
Speaker 19: Statue of limitations how long you can charge someone for
41:31
Speaker 19: that crime has well expired.
41:33
Speaker 16: This was something that.
41:33
Speaker 19: Occurred in twenty fifteen, so in a normal scenario they
41:37
Speaker 19: wouldn't been able to charge him. They're making it in
41:40
Speaker 19: what they consider to be furtherance of another crime.
41:43
Speaker 16: This is the thing that you need.
41:44
Speaker 19: To understand and every one of your views in Australia,
41:47
Speaker 19: they've yet to actually reveal in court what that crime is.
41:51
Speaker 19: So they're charging him with a misdemeanor. They're saying it'll
41:54
Speaker 19: ultimately end up a felony because it is combined with
41:57
Speaker 19: another charge.
41:59
Speaker 16: Well, I've I'm not a lawyer.
42:01
Speaker 19: But I've never heard of a scenario where they can
42:03
Speaker 19: charge you for something and not tell you what you're
42:05
Speaker 19: being charged for. Now, let's get to your point about
42:08
Speaker 19: Michael Cohen, the prosecution so card, so called star witness.
42:12
Speaker 16: There were two things that stood out to me this week.
42:15
Speaker 19: Number One, Cohen admitted under oath that he stole money
42:20
Speaker 19: from the Trump organization.
42:21
Speaker 16: Number Two, his initial.
42:23
Speaker 19: Lawyer that he hired, he said, I never hired him before.
42:26
Speaker 19: Then the prosecution brings forward an email where Cohen says,
42:29
Speaker 19: welcome to my team. So he has had his credibility
42:33
Speaker 19: blown wide open, and that's the only thing that the
42:36
Speaker 19: prosecution has going for him. But keep in mind, if
42:39
Speaker 19: your star witness is a convicted perjurer, a convicted liar,
42:44
Speaker 19: and then gets caught lying more about their lies on
42:47
Speaker 19: the stand, I don't think that's a great place for
42:50
Speaker 19: the prosecution to be. The only thing that is saving
42:54
Speaker 19: this case for the prosecution is the fact that it's
42:56
Speaker 19: happening in Manhattan, New York, where ninety percent of the
43:02
Speaker 19: jury pool is Democrats. And I think the question is,
43:05
Speaker 19: does anybody on that jury pool think about following the law?
43:09
Speaker 19: Are they so eager to be part of an effort
43:11
Speaker 19: to get Donald Trump that they're going to throw the
43:13
Speaker 19: law aside. Because anybody who's taken you know, six grade
43:18
Speaker 19: classes would know that what this prosecution has presented doesn't
43:23
Speaker 19: amount to anything illegal.
43:27
Speaker 1: I know, I would think normally that'd be a case
43:29
Speaker 1: thrown out of court, even if it made it in
43:31
Speaker 1: the first place. But still, But the funny thing is Sean,
43:35
Speaker 1: despite everything, everything thrown at Donald Trump, it just seems
43:40
Speaker 1: to go get more popular. I mean, I've been seeing
43:42
Speaker 1: the crowds lying in the streets watch Trump go to
43:45
Speaker 1: and from the court is obliged, he is forced to
43:47
Speaker 1: go every day. Get him off the campaign trail. But
43:50
Speaker 1: I see, I've seen some polls lately say, wait a minute,
43:54
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is now narrowing the gap. Trump was a wirehead,
43:59
Speaker 1: But Joe Biden is now narrowing that gap.
44:02
Speaker 12: Is he.
44:05
Speaker 16: In some states? Sure? He's also Remember we don't run.
44:07
Speaker 19: National elections, so the media will love to flash these
44:10
Speaker 19: national polls saying, you know, it was Trump forty nine,
44:13
Speaker 19: Biden forty three. Now it's forty eight to forty four.
44:16
Speaker 19: But we don't run a national election.
44:17
Speaker 16: We run an.
44:18
Speaker 19: Election by states that have electoral votes. You need two
44:21
Speaker 19: hundred and seventy to win in America, and right now,
44:23
Speaker 19: among what we call the battle ground states, the seven
44:26
Speaker 19: states that are really going to decide this, that amounts
44:29
Speaker 19: to about ninety four electoral votes. Trump is leading in
44:32
Speaker 19: every single one of them. Now, Biden has closed the
44:35
Speaker 19: gap in a couple but remember Trump only needs to
44:38
Speaker 19: win a handful of them to become president.
44:40
Speaker 16: Again, that's the problem for Biden.
44:41
Speaker 19: They need to have a clean sweep of those and
44:43
Speaker 19: they're not going to get it right now. But to
44:46
Speaker 19: your point, Andrew, and this is important. You showed those
44:48
Speaker 19: crowds that the more that the prosecution and the Democrats
44:52
Speaker 19: and the media and Hollywood and corporate America go over
44:55
Speaker 19: the top to get this, it really strengthens the result.
45:00
Speaker 19: So many voters who might not have been with Donald
45:02
Speaker 19: Trump would say, gosh, I don't like the system. I
45:05
Speaker 19: don't like the idea that the media and Hollywood and
45:08
Speaker 19: corporate America is trying to lock this election.
45:11
Speaker 16: They've done it again.
45:12
Speaker 19: Big tech did it last time by censoring certain you know,
45:15
Speaker 19: Hunter Biden's laptop and trying to excuse search results and
45:18
Speaker 19: shadow ban other people. The reality is is that the
45:22
Speaker 19: American people are tired of having these corporate orvilords try
45:25
Speaker 19: to dictate who does better and who doesn't and put
45:28
Speaker 19: their finger on the scale. So I think you're seeing
45:31
Speaker 19: the result of that by more people saying, look at you,
45:34
Speaker 19: guys have gone way over the top in your efforts
45:36
Speaker 19: to get Donald Trump. I remember what it was like
45:38
Speaker 19: under four years of him, and I know what's going
45:40
Speaker 19: on now.
45:43
Speaker 1: Sean. Spot's always great to talk to you. Thank you
45:45
Speaker 1: so much for your time you met Andrew. This is
45:53
Speaker 1: actually my last day for five weeks. I'm off, so
45:59
Speaker 1: I felt quite called upon to leave you with a
46:02
Speaker 1: great whiskey and a great book to be getting on
46:04
Speaker 1: with now. The whiskey is about the loveliest Peter whiskey,
46:09
Speaker 1: Lagavulin sixteen years, very smoky yet really smooth. You know
46:14
Speaker 1: people are scared of very smoky whiskey. The sherry really
46:17
Speaker 1: comes through. It is perfect for winter. Brian Cox, you
46:20
Speaker 1: know him from Succession, the actor, the Scottish actor who
46:24
Speaker 1: says it's the cognac of whiskeys and is right. As
46:28
Speaker 1: for the book, it's perfect for these times. Submission by
46:33
Speaker 1: Michelle Wellbeck. I'm a huge fan of Michelle Wellbeck. And
46:36
Speaker 1: as usual you can go to the Robinson's Bookshop website,
46:39
Speaker 1: where you'll find links to my book tips, including this one.
46:42
Speaker 1: They've got on they've ordered it in for you now.
46:46
Speaker 1: Well Beck, as I say, a huge fan of his,
46:48
Speaker 1: Here's francis most honored, probably most successful literary author. Despite
46:53
Speaker 1: being put on trial for insulting Islam, the actually one
46:56
Speaker 1: in the end. In this book, though submission, well Beck
47:01
Speaker 1: doesn't insult Islam. He praises it kind of. He imagines
47:05
Speaker 1: a Muslim president becoming the president of France and what
47:09
Speaker 1: follows next and what actually it all turns out quite
47:11
Speaker 1: all right for his main character, as a French academic,
47:15
Speaker 1: one of the typical well Beck characters, has lost all
47:18
Speaker 1: zest for life, that meaning in it right, likes mindless
47:23
Speaker 1: sex and all that. But he does appreciate how Islam
47:26
Speaker 1: puts men in charge of women. He loves the polygamy.
47:29
Speaker 1: That's a pity, of course for his Jewish girlfriend. She
47:31
Speaker 1: said to flee to Israel. But sucking up to the
47:34
Speaker 1: Muslim leadership has its rewards for him and his colleagues.
47:38
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. You may not be surprised to
47:40
Speaker 1: hear this is a massive, massive bestseller in France and
47:43
Speaker 1: also in Germany. I don't think he's in all that
47:48
Speaker 1: sort of promoted in Australia, which probably is not surprising
47:52
Speaker 1: given the publishing scene here. I mean, can you imagine
47:55
Speaker 1: Australian author daring to write this? Can you imagine Australian
47:58
Speaker 1: publisher ring to publish it? And I wonder how many
48:02
Speaker 1: bookshops actually promote Michelle Wellbeck. But the good news is
48:04
Speaker 1: and Rums's books up website you can find it. Well.
48:10
Speaker 1: I will be off to let you know. One thing
48:14
Speaker 1: I'll be doing is another pilgrimage. Fang off my great
48:17
Speaker 1: hero can see his gravesite, sir, I hope what a
48:21
Speaker 1: great story is. I must do a program on that
48:23
Speaker 1: one day, and also pay homage to Cardinal George pell Gee,
48:27
Speaker 1: you don't you miss people that so cultured since the
48:30
Speaker 1: history alas gone. I'm going to see something to do
48:34
Speaker 1: with him. I'll tell you about it later. That's it
48:36
Speaker 1: from me, goodbye, and now it's Sharry Markson
