- 0:10Speaker 1: Jesus is the good report.
- 0:15Speaker 2: Tonight? Oh why doan't to be Joyce isn't on tonight's show,
- 0:21Speaker 2: but good news public servants warned that we have past
- 0:24Speaker 2: peak climate scare mongering and it's time to cool it.
- 0:27Speaker 2: Plus tourists face having designed a promise to be good
- 0:30Speaker 2: before visiting a popular tourist spot, and proof that no
- 0:33Speaker 2: Jews means no news. Thousands of Muslim slaughter this week
- 0:38Speaker 2: in a horrific genocide, so why no marches in protest
- 0:41Speaker 2: for them? Also tonight, the labor government renames the lake
- 0:46Speaker 2: to honor a religious leader, and it splits the community
- 0:50Speaker 2: and w city. Of course, they wouldn't call a lake
- 0:53Speaker 2: Jesus Lake as if. But first, now the risk of
- 0:59Speaker 2: being accused again Trump to arrangement syndrome. I have to
- 1:01Speaker 2: say that Donald Trump got beaten today. The US president
- 1:05Speaker 2: started a trade war with China and has just signed
- 1:09Speaker 2: his surrender, and the world went sure. Trump today met
- 1:13Speaker 2: China's President jujip in South Korea for the first meeting
- 1:17Speaker 2: in six years, and right from the get go, G
- 1:20Speaker 2: won the image war, first making Trump wait and then
- 1:24Speaker 2: coming in from the right so that g was in
- 1:27Speaker 2: his famously favorite position for shaking hands, making Trump reach
- 1:31Speaker 2: across his body, and Trump couldn't help joking, not joking
- 1:35Speaker 2: that G was tough.
- 1:37Speaker 3: We're going to have a very successful meeting, I have
- 1:39Speaker 3: no doubt.
- 1:40Speaker 2: But he's a very tough negotiator.
- 1:42Speaker 1: That's not good.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Now, I'm just talking atmospherics. At the moment when the
- 1:47Speaker 2: leaders of the world's two greatest superpower set down the
- 1:50Speaker 2: communist dictator one side, the leader of the free world
- 1:53Speaker 2: on the other, it was clear which one was desperate
- 1:56Speaker 2: to please and which was cutting the other to size
- 1:59Speaker 2: Trump light on the flattery with the trial.
- 2:03Speaker 4: It's a great honor to be with a friend of mine,
- 2:05Speaker 4: really for a long time now, if you think about it,
- 2:09Speaker 4: the very very distinguished and respected president of China, President
- 2:15Speaker 4: G is a great leader of a great country.
- 2:19Speaker 2: But G did not flatter Trump at all. He just
- 2:22Speaker 2: pointed out that the China US relationship needed to get
- 2:25Speaker 2: back on track. I kind of dig the disruption Trump
- 2:29Speaker 2: had created, even threatening to punish China with tariffs one
- 2:33Speaker 2: hundred percent. Here is an insight into the G style.
- 2:38Speaker 5: It is a great pleasure for me as well to
- 2:40Speaker 5: meet you, and it feels very warm seeing you again.
- 2:46Speaker 5: Because it's been many years since your re elections. We
- 2:53Speaker 5: have spoken on the phone three times, exchanged several letters,
- 3:00Speaker 5: and stayed in close contact, and our joint guidance Chinese
- 3:06Speaker 5: relations have remained stable on the whole. Given our different
- 3:12Speaker 5: national conditions. We do not always see eyed eye with
- 3:16Speaker 5: each other, and it is normal for the two leading
- 3:22Speaker 5: economies of the world to have frictions now and then,
- 3:28Speaker 5: and in the face of winds, waves and challenges, you
- 3:32Speaker 5: and I, at the helm of Chinese relations, should stay
- 3:36Speaker 5: the right course and ensure the steady sailing forward of
- 3:41Speaker 5: the giant ship of Chinese relations. I always believe that
- 3:45Speaker 5: China's development goes hand in hand with your vision to
- 3:50Speaker 5: make America great again.
- 3:54Speaker 2: And one part of G's opening remarks, which won't play
- 3:57Speaker 2: it was particularly interesting, challenged Trump's repeated boast you've heard
- 4:02Speaker 2: him say many times that Trump made peace between Thailand
- 4:05Speaker 2: and Cambodi this year, one of the many peace deals
- 4:08Speaker 2: he claimed to have made. She told Trump he had
- 4:10Speaker 2: just had input into the deal, and China had actually
- 4:14Speaker 2: been involved and in more peace talks as well. Very
- 4:19Speaker 2: few leaders there contradict Trump to his face, but Trump
- 4:22Speaker 2: took all that and here is why. Last April, Trump
- 4:26Speaker 2: stunned America's trading partners Australia too, when he announced his
- 4:30Speaker 2: Liberation Day tariffs on all imports and big tariffs on
- 4:35Speaker 2: China in particular. He seemed to think he had China
- 4:38Speaker 2: over a barrel because it sells so very much through
- 4:40Speaker 2: the US. Two days later, China hit him back where
- 4:44Speaker 2: it hurts. It imposed controls on its exports of rare earth.
- 4:51Speaker 2: Now this was a massive threat to the US economy
- 4:55Speaker 2: and especially to its national security, because China controls about
- 4:59Speaker 2: ninety percent of the world's supplies of some rare earths.
- 5:03Speaker 2: It is the only supplier, and rare earths are critically
- 5:07Speaker 2: making not just wind turbines and electric cars and countless
- 5:11Speaker 2: electronic gadgets these days. More importantly, America's military desperately needs
- 5:19Speaker 2: those rare earths for its planes and its tanks, and
- 5:23Speaker 2: its submarines and its drones. Its radars are more. The
- 5:26Speaker 2: F thirty five fighter, for instance, needs rare earths or
- 5:29Speaker 2: it's radar, it's targeting, it's stealth, covering, and so on.
- 5:34Speaker 2: That's why Trump is now, of course, madly making deals
- 5:37Speaker 2: all over the world, including with Australia, A couple of
- 5:40Speaker 2: weeks ago to get new supplies of rare earth. But
- 5:43Speaker 2: the problem is creating that kind of industry is going
- 5:46Speaker 2: to take years. So even before today, Trump, for all
- 5:51Speaker 2: this bluss that started to dial back this war with China,
- 5:55Speaker 2: he scrap plans to ban the Chinese own TikTok in
- 5:58Speaker 2: the US, even though it is a threat to national security,
- 6:01Speaker 2: boat stata harvesting and pushing of memes. He banned a
- 6:05Speaker 2: visit by Taiwan's president, who's hated by China, And in
- 6:10Speaker 2: his talks with Prime Mins Anthony Albaneze a couple of
- 6:12Speaker 2: weeks ago, he even dismissed the warnings of his own
- 6:15Speaker 2: military and Secretary of War that China could start a
- 6:18Speaker 2: war over Taiwan. And in his meeting today, Trump says
- 6:23Speaker 2: he did not even discuss Taiwan, even though it is
- 6:26Speaker 2: threatened daily by Chinese jets. The two leaders emerged after
- 6:32Speaker 2: just one and a half hours of talk, shortened and expected,
- 6:34Speaker 2: and left without speaking to reporters, although Trump later did
- 6:37Speaker 2: speak on Air Force One, typically boasting of another triumph
- 6:41Speaker 2: in a meeting he described as a twelve out of ten.
- 6:45Speaker 6: There was an outstanding group of decisions.
- 6:47Speaker 7: I think that it's made.
- 6:48Speaker 2: A lot of decisions were made to him.
- 6:50Speaker 6: There was until two boats left out there, and we've
- 6:54Speaker 6: come to conclusion on many very important points, and we'll
- 6:57Speaker 6: be handing that in a little while on it on.
- 7:02Speaker 2: So what do we know of what the two leaders
- 7:05Speaker 2: actually agreed. Well, details are actually very scarce, but from
- 7:10Speaker 2: Trump's side, we are told that G promised to help
- 7:14Speaker 2: stop precursors for fentanel, as you heard Trump imply there,
- 7:18Speaker 2: from getting into the US. He also promised to buy
- 7:22Speaker 2: more American soybeans, which really just helps Trump politically at
- 7:26Speaker 2: home to get support from US farmers. And Trump claims
- 7:30Speaker 2: that China will cooperate in bringing peace to Ukraine, which
- 7:35Speaker 2: I actually doubt means much since China has actually said
- 7:38Speaker 2: it backs Russia there. And there's Trump's big win. G
- 7:44Speaker 2: supposedly did agree to let his rare earths keep flowing
- 7:47Speaker 2: to the US. It's a one year deal, the message though,
- 7:52Speaker 2: is sent by China, and China's new monopoly on rare
- 7:55Speaker 2: earth will probably now continue a bit longer. Still. Now,
- 8:01Speaker 2: what China gets in return, as far as we know
- 8:04Speaker 2: so far, includes a ten percent cut in US tariffs
- 8:09Speaker 2: and access again to advanced computer chips from the US,
- 8:12Speaker 2: which was a key demand. And certainly Trump put no
- 8:15Speaker 2: heat on China over Taiwan. Now there's probably more that
- 8:22Speaker 2: Trump wouldn't be promoting whatever he gave to China, because
- 8:26Speaker 2: all that we do know so far comes from Trump's side. Now,
- 8:30Speaker 2: China's Foreign Ministry a couple of hours ago did a
- 8:33Speaker 2: long piece, but honestly there's no detail in it. It
- 8:36Speaker 2: just it told mostly how G lectured Trump about cooperating more,
- 8:42Speaker 2: and it reported Trump's praising G's leadership at length, and
- 8:49Speaker 2: that's largely it. So essentially Trump ends this trade war
- 8:53Speaker 2: with not much at all compared to where he was
- 8:57Speaker 2: at the start. And China has sent the world a
- 9:00Speaker 2: message of its power. She has sure sent a message
- 9:04Speaker 2: of his power over Trump, and I fear for the future.
- 9:14Speaker 2: Joining me is the country's top foreign affairs writer, Greg
- 9:16Speaker 2: Sheridan of The Australian. Greg, I know that my take
- 9:21Speaker 2: is not a it's a bit at odds with a
- 9:24Speaker 2: lot of the media coverage of hers so far today,
- 9:28Speaker 2: so you may well have a different one. How important
- 9:31Speaker 2: was this deal?
- 9:33Speaker 8: Well, Andrew two critical things. First of all, welcome back.
- 9:37Speaker 8: Don't ever get sick again, the nation really struggles without you.
- 9:41Speaker 3: So just look out to you, Greg. And secondly, I.
- 9:46Speaker 8: Don't want to embarrass you on your first day back,
- 9:49Speaker 8: but I have to say I completely agree with your
- 9:52Speaker 8: analysis in your opening editorial. So like you, I try
- 9:56Speaker 8: to evaluate Trump on what he does more than what
- 9:59Speaker 8: he says. He does some good things, and he says
- 10:01Speaker 8: some good things, and he does some shocking things, and
- 10:04Speaker 8: he says many things.
- 10:05Speaker 3: That just bear no relation to reality.
- 10:08Speaker 8: But this was a clear win for China today, a clear, unequivocal,
- 10:12Speaker 8: massive defeat for Donald Trump. So Trump around Asia is
- 10:16Speaker 8: flattering everybody. Trump seems to think the only methods of
- 10:20Speaker 8: human intercourse are to flatter or to be flattered. And
- 10:23Speaker 8: when he thinks he's stronger than you, he demands that
- 10:25Speaker 8: you flatter him and make ridiculous nominations of him for
- 10:28Speaker 8: the Nobel Peace Prize. But it's a fair question. You ask,
- 10:33Speaker 8: what to China get in this deal? But here's another
- 10:36Speaker 8: way of looking at it. China has been allowed not
- 10:39Speaker 8: to change its behavior in any respect. Nothing in the
- 10:44Speaker 8: military harassment of Japan, nothing in the military harassment of
- 10:48Speaker 8: the South China Sea, nothing in its unfair trade practices,
- 10:52Speaker 8: nothing in its intimidation of Taiwan or indeed of Australia,
- 10:57Speaker 8: nothing in its cyber attacks. Now it's promised before that
- 11:01Speaker 8: it's going to stop fenting or going to the United
- 11:03Speaker 8: States has promised in the first Trump term to buy
- 11:05Speaker 8: soybeans and bought none of them. You know when the
- 11:08Speaker 8: promised to buy two hundred billion dollars extra of US
- 11:11Speaker 8: goods and nothing came of it. So a lot of
- 11:13Speaker 8: Trump's agreements amount in fact to nothing. But China's threat
- 11:18Speaker 8: to make it a condition of selling its rare earths
- 11:22Speaker 8: to you that you have to get a license from
- 11:24Speaker 8: it if you're going to export a product which contains
- 11:27Speaker 8: its rare earths. Threatened to seize and destroy the US
- 11:32Speaker 8: economy and seas and destroy in the US military. Now
- 11:36Speaker 8: we've known about this threat for years. There was a
- 11:39Speaker 8: rare earth steal between Joe Biden and Scott Morrison. The
- 11:42Speaker 8: bottom line is the West won't do anything about it
- 11:45Speaker 8: because it costs a huge amount of money. China will
- 11:47Speaker 8: always undercut you on price. The defense demand for rare
- 11:52Speaker 8: earths is a tiny speck of the total demand. So
- 11:55Speaker 8: to do the really heavy mid level processing, which we
- 11:59Speaker 8: basically don't do in this country. It will take us
- 12:01Speaker 8: years to set up and it'll never get past our
- 12:04Speaker 8: insane environmental restrictions.
- 12:07Speaker 3: That's cost a lot of money.
- 12:08Speaker 8: The West has got to have virtually a socialist industry
- 12:10Speaker 8: and rare earths, and no Western country, not even the
- 12:13Speaker 8: United States, has been willing to do it. Now China
- 12:15Speaker 8: has given everyone a shocking wake up call. But I
- 12:18Speaker 8: don't see how Trump can again intimidate China because it
- 12:22Speaker 8: will always have this rare earth's trump card to play
- 12:26Speaker 8: until there is a separate, secure Western supply. And I
- 12:29Speaker 8: think that is even if everybody goes helpful weather that
- 12:33Speaker 8: is years and years away.
- 12:36Speaker 2: And of course, making some deal a promise to release
- 12:41Speaker 2: the rare earth takes away the competitiveness of the other
- 12:46Speaker 2: countries that are telling Trump, oh no, we'll set up
- 12:49Speaker 2: our own industry, because China will always undercut them. And this,
- 12:53Speaker 2: by the way, is only a one year deal. Apparently
- 12:56Speaker 2: we do not know the details, but so it's been
- 12:58Speaker 2: reported one year deal. The whole circus starts again in
- 13:02Speaker 2: one year, so China will always have this thing hanging
- 13:06Speaker 2: over America's head. But Anthony ALBINIZI I want to pick
- 13:11Speaker 2: up something you said about is Donald Trump's charm offensive?
- 13:15Speaker 2: Now ALBINIZI had more FaceTime with Donald Trump last night,
- 13:20Speaker 2: joined a dinner in South Korea of Asian leaders in
- 13:22Speaker 2: Trump's honor, sitting on Trump's right and getting flatted all
- 13:27Speaker 2: over again.
- 13:27Speaker 9: Here is be fantastic leaders. We had a great meeting
- 13:32Speaker 9: a week ago. You came all the way, and now
- 13:33Speaker 9: you came here. But this isn't quite as far this
- 13:36Speaker 9: is this time, this time, I traveled far. But you've
- 13:40Speaker 9: done a fantastic job. But we're working together on rare earths.
- 13:44Speaker 9: But we're working on a lot of things together, and
- 13:46Speaker 9: it's all working out very well.
- 13:49Speaker 2: That's very interesting and nice for Anthony Albanisi. Very interesting too,
- 13:54Speaker 2: that it's all miked up so that people could hear it.
- 13:57Speaker 2: This is done for display. It seems to me, Greg,
- 14:01Speaker 2: as you suggested that Trump is doing the opposite of
- 14:04Speaker 2: what it's done to European leaders. European leaders get scolded
- 14:07Speaker 2: by him, Asian and Pacific leaders get flattered. Very interesting contrasts,
- 14:12Speaker 2: like it's trying to be nice to China's neighbors in
- 14:15Speaker 2: case they go to China.
- 14:17Speaker 8: Yeah, well that's right, Andrew. But again there's a kind
- 14:21Speaker 8: of terrible incoherence here. So Trump has done some good things.
- 14:24Speaker 8: You know, the defense budget is higher than it would
- 14:26Speaker 8: be under a democrat.
- 14:27Speaker 3: All that stuff.
- 14:29Speaker 8: But Trump is treating India much more savagely than he
- 14:34Speaker 8: is treating China because India doesn't have a rare Earth's monopoly.
- 14:38Speaker 8: So Trump has now decided that he's in a good
- 14:42Speaker 8: mood and everyone is flattered. Now, you're right, he's flattering
- 14:45Speaker 8: the Asians and abusing the Europeans. But this move might
- 14:48Speaker 8: only last for ten minutes. I mean, the tariffs that
- 14:51Speaker 8: he imposed on Vietnam, and on Indonesia and on India,
- 14:56Speaker 8: all of them critical swing states in deal with China,
- 15:01Speaker 8: were shocking and utterly counterproductive and very damaging to their economies. Now,
- 15:06Speaker 8: to go back to another point, Trump says China is
- 15:09Speaker 8: now going to help him and the Ukraine War. The
- 15:11Speaker 8: Russian economy could not have survived during the Ukraine War
- 15:15Speaker 8: without Chinese assistance. China has been Russia's critical, indispensable military
- 15:21Speaker 8: and economic partner all through this war. I don't see
- 15:24Speaker 8: the Chinese saying we're about to withhold our supplies of Russia.
- 15:28Speaker 8: But India, because it brought a little bit of Russian
- 15:31Speaker 8: fuel as China did, got these massive tariffs because Trump
- 15:37Speaker 8: could do it. And now as a result he's sort
- 15:39Speaker 8: of put up in flames decades of American diplomacy, drawing
- 15:45Speaker 8: India in to balance, to balance China. Now he's been
- 15:49Speaker 8: sweet with the Japanese and the South Koreans on this trip.
- 15:51Speaker 3: That's great. He's been sweet with Albo.
- 15:54Speaker 8: That's great that you know, the Australian Prime Minister deserves
- 15:56Speaker 8: credit for at least not making things up. Everybody knows
- 16:00Speaker 8: now that you just have to engage in insane flattery
- 16:03Speaker 8: of Trump to get ahead. The poor old Japanese Prime
- 16:06Speaker 8: minis they had to nominate him again for the Nobel
- 16:09Speaker 8: Peace Prize.
- 16:10Speaker 3: Now, as I say, Trump does some good and some bad.
- 16:13Speaker 8: But this is really a bad day for the West
- 16:17Speaker 8: and it ought to be a wake up called once.
- 16:19Speaker 8: We need our own defense capability, our own rare earth supply,
- 16:23Speaker 8: our own resilient economy.
- 16:26Speaker 2: Greg Sheridan, you also remind me of something coming out
- 16:31Speaker 2: of this meeting. We did not hear what Trump said
- 16:33Speaker 2: suggested last week. I think it was that China would
- 16:37Speaker 2: stop now being Russian oil. That is not coming out
- 16:41Speaker 2: of this meeting no confirmation of that at all. Greg Sheridan,
- 16:44Speaker 2: thank you so much for your time. After the break.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Why Barnaby Joyce isn't next on this show normally on
- 16:57Speaker 2: Thursdays we talked to Barnaby Joyce for Prime Minister now
- 17:01Speaker 2: hinting very strongly or switched from being a National's MP
- 17:05Speaker 2: to one Nation, which might be the problem. Why he's
- 17:10Speaker 2: a m Explain why he's a no show tonight, which
- 17:14Speaker 2: is a pity. Barnaby's a no show I think because
- 17:17Speaker 2: and I've tipped this that he wouldn't come on because
- 17:20Speaker 2: there's been accused of shouting at a female staffer of
- 17:23Speaker 2: the National's Chief Whip, whose job is to make sure
- 17:25Speaker 2: the party's MPs turned up in Parliament unless excused. Now,
- 17:30Speaker 2: Barnaby wanted to go to a funeral and I'm guessing
- 17:34Speaker 2: that CEO said is quitting the Nationals. He probably did
- 17:38Speaker 2: it as a courtesy to tell the Chief Whip that
- 17:40Speaker 2: he wouldn't be there and not begging for permission. But
- 17:43Speaker 2: he was told fill in a form and this led yelling.
- 17:48Speaker 2: Apparently Sky News's report it was noted by witnesses, and
- 17:52Speaker 2: now the staffer has officially complained to the Parliamentary Workplace
- 17:55Speaker 2: Support Service and got to say, Barnaby Joyce rejects the allegations,
- 18:00Speaker 2: but it's not coming on tonight to say why your
- 18:02Speaker 2: answer any questions I have. He also faces the potential
- 18:08Speaker 2: punishment and given that he wants to quit the Nationals,
- 18:10Speaker 2: my fear is that he'll lack friends and that might
- 18:14Speaker 2: explain why some of this reporting has been a little politicized.
- 18:18Speaker 2: But on the show now. Earlier this week, as I've reported,
- 18:28Speaker 2: Melbourne and Vincent Hospital was proudly nominated for a Victorian
- 18:31Speaker 2: Governor Bard for apartheid, well in fact, for giving priority
- 18:36Speaker 2: in its emergency department to patients claiming to be Aboriginal,
- 18:40Speaker 2: allowing them those that presented to its emergency department to
- 18:45Speaker 2: be automatically assigned as urgent patients ahead of semi urgent
- 18:48Speaker 2: and non urgent patients, regardless of what they actually had.
- 18:52Speaker 2: Now boasting that First Nations more Aboriginal First Nations as
- 18:59Speaker 2: a Canadian term, I just can't. I don't understand why
- 19:01Speaker 2: it's been important Aboriginal patients are now seeing more promptly
- 19:05Speaker 2: than non indigenous patients. This is what the hospital is
- 19:11Speaker 2: actually doing. Boasting about it now when this was reported.
- 19:16Speaker 2: I kind of hope that the hospital and the government
- 19:19Speaker 2: which is giving this prize would die of shame for
- 19:23Speaker 2: being so racist, but not a bit of it. And
- 19:26Speaker 2: today the Herald Sun reports that are former president of
- 19:28Speaker 2: the Royalist Australasian College of Physicians, Professor John Wilson, was
- 19:32Speaker 2: on Peter Kredlin Show, said this sad policy contradicted medical
- 19:36Speaker 2: codes of conduct, including the Medical Board of Australia's Code
- 19:40Speaker 2: of Conduct prohibiting against discriminating against patients on grounds such
- 19:45Speaker 2: as race, and of course doctors had that kind of code.
- 19:48Speaker 2: You treat the need, not the race, you know. Now,
- 19:52Speaker 2: how can you have a hospital forcing doctors and nurses
- 19:58Speaker 2: to go against their most fundament ethical codes. Well, joining
- 20:02Speaker 2: me is doctor Peter Collins, a professional ethicist. There was
- 20:05Speaker 2: advised Top ten companies here and was director of the
- 20:10Speaker 2: Center for Ethical Leadership. It's also advised them some companies overseas.
- 20:14Speaker 2: It has been a guest lecturer at business schools in
- 20:16Speaker 2: Europe and Australia on ethics. Peter Collins, thank you so
- 20:21Speaker 2: much for your time. Is this policy against medical ethics?
- 20:28Speaker 10: Well, Andrew firstfor welcome back. You're a living testament to
- 20:31Speaker 10: the power of a health system based on need and
- 20:34Speaker 10: not race, And it does breach health ethics, and it's
- 20:39Speaker 10: a puzzle that it has been adopted by such a
- 20:41Speaker 10: reputable group as Saint Vincent's, which runs a national chain
- 20:45Speaker 10: of hospitals HKA facilities.
- 20:50Speaker 2: Well, you've actually worked in developing medical ethics. What is
- 20:56Speaker 2: the problem with this.
- 21:00Speaker 10: Foundation of madlyical ethics is universal access on the basis
- 21:05Speaker 10: of need. So if you arrive in a casualty you
- 21:08Speaker 10: get triage, which is just a fancy way of saying
- 21:11Speaker 10: the sickest get the first treatment, and those who are
- 21:14Speaker 10: less in need are then prioritize and they have to wait,
- 21:18Speaker 10: and then again you can go through the list, and
- 21:21Speaker 10: that's done by medical practitioners working out the condition of
- 21:25Speaker 10: the person and also responding. For instance, if you're in
- 21:28Speaker 10: casualty and people who've been in a car accident arrive,
- 21:31Speaker 10: where you just get pushed down the cure as it were,
- 21:34Speaker 10: and the doctors and nurses attend to those who are arriving.
- 21:37Speaker 10: It's just part of how our great health system operates,
- 21:41Speaker 10: and it's simply on the basis of need as it
- 21:43Speaker 10: ought to be.
- 21:46Speaker 2: Yeah, Bill, we've got a government in a hospital that says, no,
- 21:50Speaker 2: this is good because it tackles disadvantage, and they're looking
- 21:53Speaker 2: at you know, they're dividing people into tribes as it were,
- 21:56Speaker 2: or races and saying everyone there be disadvantage, will some
- 22:01Speaker 2: may be and some might not be. Is there any
- 22:04Speaker 2: good reason for a policy like this which could hypothetically
- 22:09Speaker 2: have an Aboriginal with a splinter treated ahead of a
- 22:12Speaker 2: white or an Asian or an African who's got a
- 22:16Speaker 2: fractured arm.
- 22:17Speaker 10: Saye, well, if you are Indigenous and you're more likely
- 22:24Speaker 10: to find it harder to access general health services, not casualty,
- 22:28Speaker 10: but general health services, or you have a mental illness
- 22:31Speaker 10: or a victim of family violence and it's very hard
- 22:34Speaker 10: to get the right care, then health ethic says, which
- 22:38Speaker 10: should set up separate programs to enable you get the
- 22:40Speaker 10: health care you otherwise need to take Indigenous people in
- 22:43Speaker 10: a remote community, they can't get the kind of high
- 22:46Speaker 10: quality care necessarily that you might find your tertiary liberal
- 22:49Speaker 10: hospital likes in Vincent's in Melbourne. So that's quite reasonable
- 22:53Speaker 10: to do, and that's important so that all people have
- 22:56Speaker 10: equal access, not special access, but equal access to healthcare.
- 23:01Speaker 10: And that's their right and that's what the health system accommodates,
- 23:04Speaker 10: and accommodates well provided those services are funded and support it.
- 23:09Speaker 10: And Saint Vincent's in Melbourne and elsewhere and other hospitals
- 23:14Speaker 10: do a lot of that work as they ought to,
- 23:16Speaker 10: and that's good work, but not in a casualty. It
- 23:19Speaker 10: puzzles me as to why they've identified the casualty as
- 23:23Speaker 10: the place for this or accent of emergency, to use
- 23:26Speaker 10: another term. It's just a puzzle because it breaks down
- 23:29Speaker 10: the idea that healthcare should not be on the basis
- 23:32Speaker 10: of race. It should be non discriminatory. It should be
- 23:35Speaker 10: on the basis of need.
- 23:38Speaker 2: You know that's already so much race based medicine now, Peter.
- 23:43Speaker 2: I mean, some of it may well be doing good work,
- 23:47Speaker 2: as you gave an example. You've got aboriginal only health services.
- 23:50Speaker 2: You've got free medicines for aborigines. You've got an aboriginal
- 23:54Speaker 2: waiting room in some hospitals and aboriginal menus at hospitals
- 23:58Speaker 2: in cam and Melbourne. You've got free transports to medical
- 24:03Speaker 2: appointments for aborigines in places like Aubrey, were, Donga and more.
- 24:08Speaker 2: All of that is by race. It is not by
- 24:10Speaker 2: individual need. And I'm just wondering whether this has gone
- 24:15Speaker 2: overboard and if we really are treating now patients by
- 24:19Speaker 2: their race, should we least demand proof of aboriginality first?
- 24:26Speaker 10: Well, I think that's part of it, to be able
- 24:29Speaker 10: to identify that the people as souls are Aboriginal, Torres,
- 24:32Speaker 10: Straight Islands, etc. Some of the examples you give they
- 24:35Speaker 10: are interesting because what it's doing is it's breaking down
- 24:37Speaker 10: the barriers that some Indigenous Australians find in gaining access
- 24:42Speaker 10: to healthcare. Take the menu so it's appropriate to the
- 24:45Speaker 10: kind of people they are. They get transports so they're
- 24:48Speaker 10: not unable to get their physically, so some of that's
- 24:51Speaker 10: quite important to break down barriers to get access.
- 24:55Speaker 2: Competer the example I gave of aubury Wodonga is for
- 24:59Speaker 2: people with in I think about thirty kilometers of the
- 25:02Speaker 2: Aboriginal Health Service. I mean you can't tell me, you know,
- 25:06Speaker 2: if they couldn't walk or take a taxi like everyone else.
- 25:10Speaker 2: We're not talking about someone who's way out in wood work.
- 25:15Speaker 10: Well that would be the case, but most of us
- 25:16Speaker 10: are in triple zero for needed ambulance and about the
- 25:20Speaker 10: services and all belong that may be a problems. Yeah,
- 25:25Speaker 10: so that may be the case, but there may be
- 25:27Speaker 10: a special cases around this that are important around The
- 25:31Speaker 10: important thing is people get access to healthcare, and to
- 25:34Speaker 10: take Indigenous Australians, too many don't get the access they're preserved.
- 25:40Speaker 10: It's created a divide in terms of life expectancy, the
- 25:44Speaker 10: kind of diseases they acquire. So finding a way to
- 25:47Speaker 10: help them get into medical and healthcare is in principle
- 25:51Speaker 10: a good step to take. I can't comment on the
- 25:54Speaker 10: individual cases, but you know, if that helps, and it's
- 25:58Speaker 10: it's intended not to be discriminative, but to turn to
- 26:02Speaker 10: turn down or to break what are potentially discriminatory barriers
- 26:07Speaker 10: that Indigenous people either don't feel welcome or that some
- 26:11Speaker 10: medical practitioners don't actively reach out to them. So, for instance,
- 26:15Speaker 10: I can imagine and I'm aware of special groups of
- 26:20Speaker 10: nurses who go out and funded by state and federal
- 26:23Speaker 10: government to provide healthcare and Indigenous communities. That's a good
- 26:26Speaker 10: step because it breaks down a barrier that make sist
- 26:29Speaker 10: for whatever reason.
- 26:32Speaker 2: No, you make a great point there, and look, access
- 26:34Speaker 2: is fine, but once you're actually in the hospital getting
- 26:38Speaker 2: them to the hospital, yes, I've got that once they're
- 26:40Speaker 2: in the hospital in casualty, then surely you know, as
- 26:44Speaker 2: you say, the racial barriers that have got to be
- 26:48Speaker 2: thrown away. It's not about race, it is about need
- 26:51Speaker 2: medical condition. And I think it's a sin to force
- 26:54Speaker 2: s dooctors to go against their medical ethics and say
- 26:57Speaker 2: no that race first. I mean, this is appalling. Peter Collins,
- 27:00Speaker 2: thank you so much, indeed for your time.
- 27:04Speaker 11: Thanks for andrew to a fight over a name of
- 27:09Speaker 11: a lake. Now, by way of introduction, mass immigration now
- 27:14Speaker 11: looks often more like colonization. What you see with suburbs
- 27:18Speaker 11: now that look like ethnic and religious enclaves La Camber
- 27:22Speaker 11: Boxiel in Melbourne, so Chinese, spring Vale, Vietnamese.
- 27:26Speaker 2: And so on. And politicians have switched. When my parents immigrated,
- 27:32Speaker 2: politicians said let's integrate migrants into the Australian community. But
- 27:36Speaker 2: now they see all these new votes coming in and
- 27:39Speaker 2: they say, let's make deals with what they call communities
- 27:42Speaker 2: because there's so many now, right, the Indian community, the
- 27:45Speaker 2: Chinese community, the Muslim community, as if we're a bunch
- 27:48Speaker 2: of tribes and not a nation. Well, no one does
- 27:53Speaker 2: that more openly than the Victorian government, which last year
- 27:57Speaker 2: decided to rename a local lake history directly called the
- 28:00Speaker 2: Berwck Springs Lake in honor of the Indian founder of
- 28:04Speaker 2: the Sikh religion. So it's now called the Guru Nanak Lake.
- 28:09Speaker 2: And nearly ten thousand people now sign a petition in protest.
- 28:12Speaker 2: And no wonder, of course, after all, almost half of
- 28:16Speaker 2: Australians are still Christian. But there is no way, of
- 28:20Speaker 2: course that any Labor government would even dream of calling
- 28:25Speaker 2: a lake or anything else. Well, this lake the Jesus
- 28:29Speaker 2: Christ Lake, for instance, in honor of that religious leader,
- 28:32Speaker 2: wrong religion. But the Guru Nanak Lake that is apparently fine,
- 28:37Speaker 2: even that though just four percent of the locals are Sikh,
- 28:42Speaker 2: just four percent. But you know, Labour's Planning Minister then
- 28:46Speaker 2: and now Attorney Generals Sonya kok Kenny seemed dead keen
- 28:50Speaker 2: for their vote, and never mind the rules. You see,
- 28:54Speaker 2: the woke government actually rename this lake under a name
- 28:58Speaker 2: a Place program, which is that for someone to actually
- 29:00Speaker 2: be commemorated with a place name like this that have
- 29:04Speaker 2: to be dead, be deceased, or have left a lasting
- 29:08Speaker 2: legacy long association maybe with the nominated area. I'll tell
- 29:13Speaker 2: you what, Guru Nanak didn't add that he never left
- 29:16Speaker 2: India and certainly never visited Berwick Springs before he died
- 29:21Speaker 2: nearly four hundred years ago. Now, first, the Liberals, being
- 29:26Speaker 2: supposedly conservative not tribal, you know, they seem dead against
- 29:30Speaker 2: this move. Now, of course they're so scared of alienating
- 29:33Speaker 2: the Sikh vote like the Chinese vote last election, that
- 29:36Speaker 2: they're not voting to reverse the decisions change the name
- 29:41Speaker 2: or but one liberal try to get a motion to
- 29:43Speaker 2: that effect this week. Now, this name change just been
- 29:49Speaker 2: so divisive. I mean there have been protests in Berwick
- 29:52Speaker 2: about the renaming of the lake and now the local
- 29:55Speaker 2: paper has published a piece. But two secreters actually daring
- 29:59Speaker 2: the government to go the whole holding call the whole
- 30:01Speaker 2: suburb Nannackville in honor of the Sikh founder. Now, of
- 30:06Speaker 2: course they're sarcastic, they're accused. They've actually accused the opponents
- 30:11Speaker 2: of the name change of being racists and bullies. But
- 30:15Speaker 2: they do say, look it is now all too divisive,
- 30:18Speaker 2: and speaking of seats changing the name back to Barrett
- 30:21Speaker 2: Springs Lake. Joining me is Michael Ball, president of the
- 30:23Speaker 2: Barrett Springs Community Association and head petitioner against this ramming
- 30:27Speaker 2: through of the name change. Michael Ball, thank you for
- 30:31Speaker 2: your Tom. How divisive has this issue been?
- 30:35Speaker 7: Oh, thanks for you, Tom Andrew. Look, it's very divisive.
- 30:37Speaker 7: We're a proud multicultural community. We've got people from all
- 30:41Speaker 7: different cultures and nationalities in our community and this is
- 30:45Speaker 7: really deeply offensive what's happened here. And that's why myself,
- 30:49Speaker 7: as the president of the Association and the Residents Committee,
- 30:52Speaker 7: that's why we're calling you out on behalf of all Victorians.
- 30:56Speaker 7: Victorians need to know what's happening here. There's no consultation
- 30:59Speaker 7: over two year period. That was done very deliberately to appear,
- 31:04Speaker 7: you know, to make good a political agenda from a
- 31:09Speaker 7: twenty eight aen pre election commitment from Daniel Andrews. But
- 31:12Speaker 7: it's been very divisive. People from all communities are saying
- 31:14Speaker 7: this is wrong. Just the Sikh gentleman introducing himself to
- 31:18Speaker 7: me on Saturday morning and he said, you know what,
- 31:20Speaker 7: this is a special place now for us, but this
- 31:22Speaker 7: should not be named guru in Anak. This has always
- 31:25Speaker 7: been very Springs to me and that's the way it
- 31:27Speaker 7: should be.
- 31:30Speaker 2: I don't the whole thing is crazy. I mean, was
- 31:35Speaker 2: the Labor government in your view, responding to a lot
- 31:37Speaker 2: of community demand to honor the Sikh religion like this
- 31:42Speaker 2: or was it just being seek votes.
- 31:46Speaker 7: It was a twenty eighteen pre election commitment from Daniel Andrews.
- 31:48Speaker 7: He said he'd na something in honor of Guru in
- 31:50Speaker 7: a Nac and that was announced the five hundred and
- 31:52Speaker 7: fifty fifth birthday of Guru in a Knack. And then
- 31:54Speaker 7: what happened in twenty twenty two is the state government
- 31:57Speaker 7: consulted a handful of senior seek munity leaders and this
- 32:01Speaker 7: is no reflection on the Seak community. Andrew, your viewers
- 32:03Speaker 7: need to understand this. I've got neighbors a few doors
- 32:06Speaker 7: down for me who were Siks. They've been here fifteen
- 32:08Speaker 7: twenty years. They're very upset about this. They're very upset
- 32:11Speaker 7: that there was no consultation to them. Missus Barick Springs
- 32:14Speaker 7: and the Barry Springs Lake is the heart of this community.
- 32:17Speaker 7: So I suppose what happened then is in twenty twenty
- 32:19Speaker 7: two the decision was made to change the name. There
- 32:22Speaker 7: was a two year period where there was no consultation.
- 32:24Speaker 7: And again your viewers need to understand this. Absolutely no consultation,
- 32:29Speaker 7: not even within the Sikh community. This was done, as
- 32:31Speaker 7: I said, by a few seniors, seek community leaders. We're
- 32:35Speaker 7: trying to engage with them now and be proactive and
- 32:39Speaker 7: trying to find a solution. And then what happened in
- 32:41Speaker 7: twenty twenty four, seven state government members of parliament turned up. Now,
- 32:46Speaker 7: I don't know about you, but I can't recall the
- 32:48Speaker 7: last time seven members of the state government turned up
- 32:52Speaker 7: anywhere in one location. But to add salt to the wounds,
- 32:56Speaker 7: the local community wasn't even invited. Now, I ask yourself
- 32:59Speaker 7: that question. If there's seven there was a part of
- 33:02Speaker 7: turning up for such a special occasion, why wasn't the
- 33:05Speaker 7: local community even invited? Because they didn't consult the community?
- 33:09Speaker 7: And as I said, it goes back to it too.
- 33:11Speaker 2: Embarrassed Michael, Michael Ball, you are so right now. I
- 33:16Speaker 2: just want to endorse what you say about the Sea community.
- 33:18Speaker 2: They've actually made fantastic immigrants. I mean, I really like
- 33:21Speaker 2: the Seak culture in India. You know, they provide so
- 33:26Speaker 2: many engineers in particular, so many army officers. It's you know,
- 33:30Speaker 2: it's a great go get them culture. I like that,
- 33:33Speaker 2: but this pandering is just disgrace for Michael Ball. Thank
- 33:36Speaker 2: you so much for your time, really appreciate it. After
- 33:40Speaker 2: the break, more Muslims massacred in a genocide this week.
- 33:45Speaker 2: It's just horrific. But this time the protests say nothing,
- 33:50Speaker 2: and why no Jews to blame? Now some photos are
- 33:59Speaker 2: going to find I'm about to describe very upsetting and
- 34:02Speaker 2: they should find it. So on Sunday there's going to
- 34:05Speaker 2: be yet another protest in Melbourne and elsewhere about those
- 34:09Speaker 2: damn Jews. Well, those Israelis killing Muslims this week. Now
- 34:14Speaker 2: Israel strikes Gaza again, shouts the poster for Sunday's protests. Well,
- 34:19Speaker 2: never mind that even Qatar, which is back Toamas, admits
- 34:22Speaker 2: that her started this lightest latest outbreak by attacking Israeli soldiers. Now,
- 34:31Speaker 2: if Sunday's protesters were really worried about dead Muslims, why
- 34:35Speaker 2: are they not marching instead against the true genocide. The
- 34:38Speaker 2: most ghastly massacres that occurred that just these past few
- 34:42Speaker 2: days is Sudan, in the civil war there between the
- 34:45Speaker 2: Muslim government and the more militantly Muslim rebels called the
- 34:48Speaker 2: Rapid Support Forces, have just stormed El Fasha, capital of
- 34:52Speaker 2: the Darfur province. Now on social media right now you
- 35:03Speaker 2: can see for yourself those rapid support forces murdering thousands
- 35:06Speaker 2: of people in Alfhashow, including more than four hundred at
- 35:10Speaker 2: a maternity hospital according to the World Health Organization, slaughtering
- 35:14Speaker 2: people of the wrong tribe, people who are too black. Now,
- 35:19Speaker 2: the videos are just simply too ghastly for me to
- 35:22Speaker 2: show you.
- 35:22Speaker 12: Now.
- 35:23Speaker 2: I'll only show you this. One RSF leader actually had
- 35:26Speaker 2: himself filmed lining up more than fifteen civilians, and I
- 35:29Speaker 2: won't show you how this ends before he shoots them
- 35:31Speaker 2: all dead, one by one. There are also videos and
- 35:36Speaker 2: photos of RSF gunmen chasing down women in their pickups
- 35:40Speaker 2: and hanging women from trees, and crushing men under trucks
- 35:44Speaker 2: and worse. It's just we have all these men you
- 35:48Speaker 2: see here now they were massacred just moments later. It
- 35:51Speaker 2: is all so vile. But where this protest has claimed
- 35:56Speaker 2: to care about Muslims being killed? They when there are
- 36:01Speaker 2: real war crimes, infinitely worse killings happening in real time
- 36:05Speaker 2: on video right now, they're nowhere, not a word. And
- 36:09Speaker 2: why no Jews, No Jews to blame. That's the moral here,
- 36:16Speaker 2: No Jews, no news, even though at least one hundred
- 36:19Speaker 2: and fifty thousand people have been killed in Sudan so far,
- 36:23Speaker 2: probably many many more in this two year civil war.
- 36:26Speaker 2: Half a million children suffering acute malnutrition, twelve million refugees.
- 36:32Speaker 2: But I guess it's almost news to you. But from
- 36:34Speaker 2: the left, what do you hear?
- 36:35Speaker 12: Ah?
- 36:36Speaker 2: But where are the Jews, sorry, the Zionists. We'll watch
- 36:40Speaker 2: those protests as they march on Sunday. Joining me is
- 36:44Speaker 2: sky New's host James Mfferson, who filled in for me
- 36:47Speaker 2: so brilliantly while I was away, and Christy McSweeney, who
- 36:50Speaker 2: has worked for coalition prime ministers and premiers. James am
- 36:54Speaker 2: I being too cynical.
- 36:56Speaker 13: Andrew Queers for Sedanah preparing themselves as we whisp and
- 37:00Speaker 13: Grete's vatilla to Sudan will be leaving at any moment.
- 37:04Speaker 13: Of course, of course you're not too cynical. This whole
- 37:07Speaker 13: exercise is entirely cynical. If the protesters care to jot
- 37:12Speaker 13: about Garzens, they would have been protesting against Hamas, because
- 37:17Speaker 13: no one has oppressed the Garzans more than they're Hamas overlords.
- 37:21Speaker 13: But they only care about the Garzens to the extent
- 37:24Speaker 13: that the Garzans can be leveraged to demonize Israel. That's
- 37:28Speaker 13: been proved without doubt over the past two years. The
- 37:32Speaker 13: interesting thing, though, when you show the absolute horrors that
- 37:36Speaker 13: are being perpetrated against Muslim people by Muslim people in Africa,
- 37:42Speaker 13: is that the Left believe And I'm not saying this,
- 37:44Speaker 13: it's just it's impossible to read anything into it other
- 37:48Speaker 13: than the Left think that when Muslims are killing Muslims, well,
- 37:51Speaker 13: that's just something that Muslims do. Otherwise they'd be outraged,
- 37:55Speaker 13: but they turn a blind eye to it, far more
- 37:58Speaker 13: concerned about demonizing is than doing anything to help Muslims.
- 38:04Speaker 2: Christy, I mean, this isn't this how Israel gets framed.
- 38:08Speaker 2: Because if you train the lens entirely on Israel and
- 38:11Speaker 2: magnify every mistake is a war crime or whatever, and
- 38:14Speaker 2: then exclude in the context like far worse, terrible things
- 38:20Speaker 2: are happening elsewhere, then of course Israel turns out to
- 38:22Speaker 2: be the most wicked country in the world.
- 38:27Speaker 12: What's extraordinary but unsurprising when we see these protests and
- 38:31Speaker 12: I'm from Melbourne, sitting here in Sydney today where people
- 38:34Speaker 12: are setting up market stalls outside of Saint Mary's cathedral
- 38:37Speaker 12: in Hyde Park selling cafirs for fifteen dollars so people
- 38:41Speaker 12: can wear them to a protest. But Melbourne has so
- 38:44Speaker 12: many protests, many of them protesting against Israelis and against
- 38:51Speaker 12: Jewish activity. And all of those protesting compass people who
- 38:57Speaker 12: are waving flags for various other causes rights, trans rights,
- 39:02Speaker 12: women's rights, indigenous rights, climate action. None of those people
- 39:08Speaker 12: are waving a flag for the atrocities that we've just
- 39:10Speaker 12: seen there, None of them. And of all those people
- 39:13Speaker 12: marching for the rights of women in Gaza, none of
- 39:16Speaker 12: them have paid a scare of attention to the other
- 39:19Speaker 12: activities around the world engaged in by other nations and
- 39:23Speaker 12: other religions, persecuting women just for being female.
- 39:28Speaker 2: None of it. Look, the hypocrisy really really gets me, James.
- 39:35Speaker 2: The story that you were fascinated by the Averaginal corporation
- 39:41Speaker 2: that oversees Queensland's North Strathbroke Island has suggested the tourists
- 39:46Speaker 2: be asked to make a pledge to be good tourists.
- 39:50Speaker 2: It defines what good means and respect the culture and
- 39:54Speaker 2: possibly purely coincidentally pay a new fee. Now they suggested
- 39:58Speaker 2: this is an indigenous tourism seminar this week. This is
- 40:01Speaker 2: a good idea or some sort of trojan horse or
- 40:05Speaker 2: just naked money grab andrew.
- 40:07Speaker 13: The thin edge of the wedge is expanding rapidly. Think
- 40:10Speaker 13: about this. To visit North Stradbrick Island, potentially you would
- 40:14Speaker 13: be asked to sign a pledge to be a good tourist.
- 40:18Speaker 13: And part of what they define as a good tourist
- 40:21Speaker 13: is someone who respects indigenous culture. So not only do
- 40:25Speaker 13: you have to have a welcome to country or an
- 40:27Speaker 13: acknowledgment of country, you have to then pledge to respect country,
- 40:32Speaker 13: whatever that means in indigenous culture. And then there's a
- 40:36Speaker 13: suggestion that you might like to make a donation, which
- 40:40Speaker 13: the indigenous body says is voluntary at this stage. So
- 40:45Speaker 13: we all know where this is going. It's just divide, divide, divide.
- 40:51Speaker 13: I cannot believe that these sorts of things are being
- 40:54Speaker 13: not only suggested but taken seriously by local councils and
- 40:59Speaker 13: a siated bodies. And what happens if you don't take
- 41:02Speaker 13: the pledge? What happens if you arrive at North Strabroock
- 41:04Speaker 13: Island and say, well, I don't want to promise to
- 41:07Speaker 13: respect Indigenous culture, not because you're a bad person, but
- 41:11Speaker 13: you just want to enjoy Australia where you were born.
- 41:13Speaker 13: It's a shocking idea and it's just further division of
- 41:18Speaker 13: people that really, we don't need any more of that.
- 41:22Speaker 2: Christy Will. We now need to sign a good tourism
- 41:27Speaker 2: pledge and respect the European culture that built the Sydney
- 41:31Speaker 2: Harbord Bridge if we decide to go visit that or
- 41:35Speaker 2: the Sydney Opera House. I mean, do you need cultural
- 41:38Speaker 2: respect certificates to visit whatever monuments to Western culture?
- 41:47Speaker 12: Well, Andrew, I'd like to know. And with all these things,
- 41:50Speaker 12: the devil is in the detail. And it's been very
- 41:54Speaker 12: ambiguously framed as a way for people to say that
- 41:58Speaker 12: they can respect the culture and they can drive less
- 42:03Speaker 12: and they can take less plastics onto the island. It's
- 42:05Speaker 12: almost an eco tourism package is a way that it's framed.
- 42:09Speaker 12: Where's the money going to? I'd like to know if
- 42:14Speaker 12: people sign a pledge to be a good tourist and
- 42:16Speaker 12: be more sustainable and not bring plastic materials to the island,
- 42:21Speaker 12: and all of those things are really good things. Respecting
- 42:24Speaker 12: the environment and reducing your footprints and your energy consumption
- 42:28Speaker 12: on the island.
- 42:29Speaker 2: All of those are good things, correct, What.
- 42:31Speaker 12: Does that have to do with indigenous What does that
- 42:34Speaker 12: have to do with indigenous?
- 42:36Speaker 2: What what? You're not allowed to bring plass to the island,
- 42:39Speaker 2: But they do two different things. The credit card, you've
- 42:42Speaker 2: got to bring your plastic critical yes, of course, of course.
- 42:47Speaker 12: So if you want a lesson you're prints, that's wonderful, do.
- 42:51Speaker 13: That plastic card.
- 42:54Speaker 1: If you want to respect.
- 42:56Speaker 13: That's enough.
- 42:57Speaker 2: I've got to cut the segment short. Sorry that thanks
- 43:00Speaker 2: for very much for your time. After the break and
- 43:03Speaker 2: a legal immigrant it's sexually assaulted. A forty year old
- 43:06Speaker 2: is paid to go back home and then complaints. Police
- 43:10Speaker 2: didn't even want to arrest him anyway. How mad is
- 43:13Speaker 2: Britain today.
- 43:18Speaker 10: Now?
- 43:18Speaker 2: Concern about mass immigration is now just all over the
- 43:22Speaker 2: West right, and particularly in Britain, I have to say
- 43:26Speaker 2: its own part because its labor governor has become a
- 43:30Speaker 2: total clown show. I mean, this year has seen record
- 43:33Speaker 2: numbers of both people that are many of them put
- 43:35Speaker 2: up in hotels. This is one thing, you know, the
- 43:38Speaker 2: seeming inability of the government to stop all that stuff.
- 43:42Speaker 2: But the didn't get this. Now, as I mentioned on Monday.
- 43:44Speaker 2: The one illegal immigrant from Ethiopia was then convicted of
- 43:48Speaker 2: sexually assaulting a fourteen year old British girl and a woman,
- 43:51Speaker 2: but was then accidentally freed from jail. He was not
- 43:55Speaker 2: meant to be released, He just walked out. He was
- 43:58Speaker 2: eventually recaptured up to two days and then deported, but
- 44:02Speaker 2: not before he was paid one thousand dollars to go
- 44:08Speaker 2: and not file for asylum first and worse, when he
- 44:11Speaker 2: did get to Ethiopia. His claimed that British police failed
- 44:15Speaker 2: to arrest him when he walked out of jail, even
- 44:18Speaker 2: when he tried to surrender.
- 44:20Speaker 8: I get a police look here, please, I wanted mone
- 44:24Speaker 8: I arrested.
- 44:25Speaker 11: I would give you my hand, but he had to
- 44:26Speaker 11: people worries potistician, he ignored me.
- 44:28Speaker 2: He did joinally from London's Patrick Christie's star presenter of
- 44:34Speaker 2: GV News. Great to see Patrick, but I've got to say,
- 44:38Speaker 2: this is beyond a face and I'm just look, it's
- 44:41Speaker 2: hard to think of which part of this saga would
- 44:45Speaker 2: outrage voters.
- 44:46Speaker 14: Most absolutely perthink, great to see you again, Andrew. But right,
- 44:51Speaker 14: it's the fact that firstly, this is every single day
- 44:54Speaker 14: now something like this happens second thing is the cost
- 44:57Speaker 14: of it. So we paid for this ethio and child
- 45:00Speaker 14: sex offender to live in a hotel for a while.
- 45:03Speaker 14: We pay for his food, We paid for his alcohol,
- 45:05Speaker 14: which you can assume before he's sexually assaulted a fourteen
- 45:08Speaker 14: year old school girl. We paid for him to go
- 45:10Speaker 14: to court, We paid for him to live in prison,
- 45:12Speaker 14: we paid for the police hunt after his mistakenly release
- 45:15Speaker 14: from prison, and then, as you've rightly pointed out there,
- 45:17Speaker 14: we paid him about one thousand Australian.
- 45:19Speaker 1: Dollars just to leave. The other aspect of this, of course.
- 45:22Speaker 14: Is that for many people, this is our worst fears
- 45:25Speaker 14: coming true. And everyone likes to be right, don't they,
- 45:28Speaker 14: But not really in this case or in these cases,
- 45:31Speaker 14: because that unfortunately means that something absolutely terrible has.
- 45:34Speaker 1: Happened to somebody. It's the fact that it's not in isolation.
- 45:37Speaker 14: I mean the other day, just the other day, there's
- 45:41Speaker 14: a man from Afghanistan who went to Britain illegally in
- 45:43Speaker 14: the back of a lorry allegedly stabbed at a random
- 45:47Speaker 14: dog walker to death. We've got a Somalian who's been
- 45:50Speaker 14: sentenced for rape yesterday, Sudanese man last week guilty of
- 45:54Speaker 14: trying to kidnap a seventeen year old schoolgirl.
- 45:57Speaker 1: Another Sudanese man guilty just.
- 45:59Speaker 14: A couple of days ago of stabbing an asylum hotel
- 46:02Speaker 14: worker to death. This is the everyday reality now, sadly
- 46:07Speaker 14: of modern Britain, and you know it's the social contracts
- 46:11Speaker 14: has been completely broken.
- 46:13Speaker 1: It is the worst case scenario.
- 46:15Speaker 14: If this Ethiopian sex offender can be deported, even if
- 46:19Speaker 14: we have to pay in five hundred British pounds, why
- 46:22Speaker 14: can't we just deport the other illegal migrants as well,
- 46:25Speaker 14: the other criminal illegal migrants.
- 46:27Speaker 1: Why can't we just deport that.
- 46:31Speaker 2: Well? That is an excellent question, Patrick, That's a very
- 46:34Speaker 2: good question. Patrick. We're having a huge debate here about
- 46:40Speaker 2: green energy. It's casting us so much more than was promised,
- 46:44Speaker 2: it's delivering less electricity than we were told, and it's
- 46:49Speaker 2: driving heavy industry out of business. I mean, the price
- 46:51Speaker 2: has gone through the roof now in Britain. I see
- 46:54Speaker 2: that your version of our Chris Bowen, your Energy Secretary
- 46:57Speaker 2: Ed Millerban has now admitted that wind farms are actually
- 47:01Speaker 2: producing muchless wind than first thought. Now, how much trouble
- 47:06Speaker 2: is your supposed green energy transition in you know, the
- 47:10Speaker 2: supposed move to wind and solar under the net zero push.
- 47:15Speaker 14: Well, anyone with common sense admits that it's in a
- 47:17Speaker 14: lot of trouble because we have the highest energy prices
- 47:20Speaker 14: in the developed world here.
- 47:22Speaker 1: In Britain, which is nuts unfortunately for us. Though our
- 47:25Speaker 1: net zero.
- 47:25Speaker 14: Minister ed miller Band is like Wallace without the Gromet.
- 47:29Speaker 14: I mean that is the face of net zero. Litrey
- 47:33Speaker 14: just personified, really lives in a three and a half
- 47:36Speaker 14: million pound house himself and it doesn't have to worry
- 47:40Speaker 14: about any additional costs for anything in his life.
- 47:42Speaker 1: But meanwhile, obviously the rest of us, the rest of
- 47:44Speaker 1: us mugs Andre.
- 47:46Speaker 14: We know we're just going to suck it up and
- 47:47Speaker 14: pay an extra few thousand pounds a year for energy bills.
- 47:50Speaker 1: But yeah, it turns out wind farms. It can't get
- 47:53Speaker 1: to windy in.
- 47:53Speaker 14: Britain, Andrew, because if it does, then our national grid
- 47:57Speaker 14: blows up and we have to pay to import our
- 47:59Speaker 14: energy from We're not allowed to drill for our own
- 48:02Speaker 14: oil in the North Sea, so we have to buy
- 48:04Speaker 14: it off the Norwegians who drill it out of the
- 48:07Speaker 14: North Sea or imports it from Indonesia.
- 48:10Speaker 1: It's nuts, it's nuts.
- 48:13Speaker 2: It's it's look, it's just a shocker. And I just
- 48:17Speaker 2: think the whole West is coming a real cropper here.
- 48:19Speaker 2: But China is laughing at us. Patrick Patrick Christie's next week,
- 48:23Speaker 2: I'd like more time with you. Let's make a date.
- 48:26Speaker 2: Thank you so much indeed for your time. Really appreciate it.
- 48:30Speaker 2: That's it from me, Coming up next, Sherry markson good Night,
