- 0:01Speaker 1: Peedo Krandlin live on Sky News Australia.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Good evening, Welcome to the show. It's been a very
- 0:09Speaker 2: busy day today. Let's get right into it. He is
- 0:12Speaker 2: what's coming up tonight on Kredline. At an official public
- 0:15Speaker 2: meeting yesterday into an Indigenous pretty for Victoria, Sky News
- 0:19Speaker 2: cameras were banned. So why the secrecy? Isn't this supposed
- 0:22Speaker 2: to be about truth telling? Just into damaging for Price
- 0:26Speaker 2: joins me for her take tonight. A prominent breastfeeding expert
- 0:30Speaker 2: who was previously sacked from her job for not using
- 0:33Speaker 2: gender neutral language, is facing a new legal fight for
- 0:36Speaker 2: social media posts labeling transgender breastfeeding as experimental. The brave
- 0:41Speaker 2: woman Jasmine Sussex joins me live tonight to explain by
- 0:45Speaker 2: her five for free speech, she's also about defending biological reality.
- 0:51Speaker 2: The ego has landed an AFL great slams a Prime
- 0:55Speaker 2: minister for his showing carry on at football finals over
- 0:59Speaker 2: the weekend, and as the Treasurer tries to blame the
- 1:03Speaker 2: RBA again, frustrated is fultering economy, new polling shows voters
- 1:08Speaker 2: unbuying his excuses. They say they trust the RBA, not labor.
- 1:13Speaker 2: Also today a long list of marginal seats at Labors
- 1:15Speaker 2: at risk of losing at the next election as the
- 1:18Speaker 2: government fails to arrest its slide in the polls.
- 1:23Speaker 3: It is self evident.
- 1:24Speaker 4: It is a factual point to say that a combination
- 1:28Speaker 4: of global economic uncertainty, persistent price pressures and higher interest
- 1:31Speaker 4: rates are slowing our economy. Higher interest rates are slowing
- 1:35Speaker 4: our economy. We saw it in the numbers for consumption,
- 1:38Speaker 4: discretionary spending with ouseholds dwell ends. We saw it in
- 1:42Speaker 4: a number of indicators in the national accounts.
- 1:44Speaker 3: Mister Speaker.
- 1:48Speaker 2: At first for a prime minister in his first term,
- 1:51Speaker 2: Anthony Alminesi's in deep trouble. It's probably true that voters
- 1:56Speaker 2: will give a first term incumbent to the benefit of
- 1:59Speaker 2: the doubt, because the latest polls still have the government
- 2:02Speaker 2: and the opposition tied at fifty to fifty. That's despite
- 2:06Speaker 2: all of Labour's broken promises and its sheer ineptitude like
- 2:10Speaker 2: its failed voice. A result, the Prime Minister owns himself
- 2:14Speaker 2: absolutely and the voters still don't trust he won't try
- 2:18Speaker 2: and force in by stealth anyway. Like power bills that
- 2:22Speaker 2: have risen by up to one thousand dollars per household,
- 2:25Speaker 2: despite the promises to instead cut them. Mortgage repayments too,
- 2:30Speaker 2: they've doubled since Labor was elected, twelve rate hikes under
- 2:34Speaker 2: Albanese's watch. Real wages too have fallen despite Labour's commitment
- 2:39Speaker 2: to boost them and all these new laws for Labour's
- 2:43Speaker 2: union mates the payoff for those election donations, or they're
- 2:47Speaker 2: smashing productivity. Then there's the green obsessions that have all
- 2:51Speaker 2: but stopped any new research developments in this country, killing
- 2:55Speaker 2: off our position as a global resource superpower. On health again, today,
- 3:01Speaker 2: more nationwide drug shortages are reported, this time for a
- 3:06Speaker 2: drug critical for pregnant women. Before that, it was ivy fluids,
- 3:10Speaker 2: before that, pain medication for palliative care. As a country,
- 3:15Speaker 2: we've never spent more on education, and yet we're falling
- 3:19Speaker 2: further and further behind our international competitors. Headlines today report
- 3:24Speaker 2: the teachers are quitting in droves, yet the government's focus
- 3:28Speaker 2: seems to be about activism in the curriculum, all the
- 3:31Speaker 2: while Naplan shows our children are struggling with the basics.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Then there's the incompetence and lack of resolve and border protection.
- 3:41Speaker 2: Foreign criminals let loose in the suburbs and tourist visas
- 3:46Speaker 2: handed out to people from Gaza. On the economy, the
- 3:50Speaker 2: unedifying fight between the Treasurer and the Reserve Bank, the
- 3:54Speaker 2: means fiscal and monetary policy are pulling in opposite directions.
- 3:59Speaker 2: A new poll out today reporting that fifty one percent
- 4:02Speaker 2: of voters blame the government for high interest rates on
- 4:05Speaker 2: only twenty seven percent of them blame the bank. Add
- 4:09Speaker 2: in as well, Australia's military passivity, almost passivism, as we
- 4:14Speaker 2: scale back our firepower and personnel at a time when
- 4:18Speaker 2: the challenges have never been greater. All of this cleverly
- 4:23Speaker 2: masked by all the talk about the Orchest commitment, but
- 4:27Speaker 2: that's decades and decades away. We need the subs now.
- 4:32Speaker 2: It's a sorry indictment on the Albanezy government that two
- 4:35Speaker 2: years in, when by rights they should be still in
- 4:38Speaker 2: a honeymoon phase, the Poles have them consistently in trouble.
- 4:42Speaker 2: The latest the red Bridge poll out yesterday, drills down
- 4:46Speaker 2: into individual seats as well as the overall vote, and
- 4:50Speaker 2: it shows that Labor is almost certain to lose its majority.
- 4:54Speaker 2: It indicates that Labor is at least three percentage points
- 4:57Speaker 2: behind in five key seats seats it currently holds Patterson
- 5:02Speaker 2: and Gilmore, both in regional New South Wales Aston that's
- 5:06Speaker 2: the outer suburbs of Melbourne, Lyons, Lions in Tasmania and
- 5:11Speaker 2: the Northern Territories big seat of Lingiari. Now beyond those
- 5:15Speaker 2: five where a loss is predicted, there's another fourteen seats
- 5:18Speaker 2: that Redbridge says are too close to call. And of
- 5:22Speaker 2: the fourteen, nine are currently held by Labour. So that's
- 5:26Speaker 2: a Hunter, Dobell Robertson in Regional in New South Wales,
- 5:30Speaker 2: ben Along in Sydney. There's also Chisholm, Bruce and McEwen
- 5:34Speaker 2: in Melbourne's outer suburbs. And in Wa there's the Perth
- 5:38Speaker 2: seat of Tangny, as well as the new seat of
- 5:41Speaker 2: Bullwinkle that's notionally Labour on the last election result. Now,
- 5:47Speaker 2: according to the Redbridge Pole, the Liberals are in trouble
- 5:50Speaker 2: in three places. Hughes, Casey and Ford their seats in Sydney,
- 5:56Speaker 2: Melbourne out of Brisbane respectively. And while Labour might take
- 6:00Speaker 2: Brisbane's Rye and back from the Greens and the Libs
- 6:04Speaker 2: and the Nats well, they face teal challenges and Wan
- 6:07Speaker 2: and encounper the Lips are currently ahead in two Teal seats,
- 6:11Speaker 2: Goldstein in Melbourne's Bayside area and Curtain in Perth. On
- 6:17Speaker 2: these figures, an eighteen seat gain that Peter Dutton needs
- 6:21Speaker 2: to win government in his own right no longer looks
- 6:24Speaker 2: like scaling Mount Everest without oxygen if he doesn't go early.
- 6:31Speaker 2: So on the usual election timetable was still nine months
- 6:36Speaker 2: away from the federal poll. Launching an attack ad today
- 6:40Speaker 2: against the coalition's nuclear plans, Labour is trying to exploit
- 6:45Speaker 2: areas where the Libs have more work to do. But
- 6:48Speaker 2: given that elections are essentially a referendum on the government,
- 6:51Speaker 2: not the opposition, change is now a real possibility. And
- 6:57Speaker 2: the fact that the PMS at war with the Unions,
- 7:00Speaker 2: the RBA, our resource sector universities to see if WU
- 7:05Speaker 2: and more, all of that means he is distracted. Were
- 7:10Speaker 2: still the Greens are playing with Labour's head, the Alps
- 7:14Speaker 2: spoot and it shows meaning it's choppy waters ahead for
- 7:19Speaker 2: the government. And as bad as things are now in politics,
- 7:23Speaker 2: so the saying goes, things can always get worse, all right,
- 7:32Speaker 2: We're back for sitting fortnite. Sky News political reporter can
- 7:35Speaker 2: Reddan joins me now from camera.
- 7:38Speaker 5: The Royal Commission into Veterans Suicide has demanded sweeping cultural
- 7:41Speaker 5: and practical changes to prevent service men and women from
- 7:45Speaker 5: taking their own lives.
- 7:46Speaker 1: We hope that the Royal Commission has achieved one thing,
- 7:49Speaker 1: which is to make the problems undeniable.
- 7:52Speaker 5: Commissioner Nick Coldas has recommended the creation of a new
- 7:55Speaker 5: agency to focus on helping veterans transition into civilian life.
- 8:00Speaker 5: Other proposals include creating proactive outreach programs to check in
- 8:05Speaker 5: with former ADF members and a specific inquiry into sexual
- 8:09Speaker 5: violence in the ADF following nearly eight hundred reported sexual
- 8:14Speaker 5: assaults in the past five years alone.
- 8:17Speaker 2: We will now work through the recommendations in a timely
- 8:20Speaker 2: and methodical manner.
- 8:22Speaker 6: Both sides of politics, over a long period of time,
- 8:24Speaker 6: despite the best of intent, have let these diggers down.
- 8:28Speaker 5: The Coalition has accused the government of bullying the Reserve
- 8:30Speaker 5: Bank over its approach to combating inflation.
- 8:33Speaker 7: Why does the alban Easy Labor government thinks it's acceptable
- 8:36Speaker 7: to bully the independent RBA in this way.
- 8:39Speaker 4: The Governor made a clear last week in her public
- 8:41Speaker 4: comments that she doesn't agree with the assessment work forward
- 8:44Speaker 4: by the Deputy leader.
- 8:45Speaker 5: South Australian Premier Peter Malanowskis has put forward a plan
- 8:49Speaker 5: to block children under the age of fourteen from having
- 8:52Speaker 5: social media accounts.
- 8:54Speaker 8: A single law across the country.
- 8:55Speaker 5: Great, but I'm not going to sit around and wait
- 8:57Speaker 5: forever for that, so we've got to get on with it.
- 8:59Speaker 5: Quantas would not be forced to sell off Jetstar under
- 9:02Speaker 5: a coalition proposal to boost competition in the aviation sector.
- 9:06Speaker 2: Quantus and its market share is a problem for airfares
- 9:10Speaker 2: for the Australian public.
- 9:12Speaker 5: Shadow Transport Minister Bridget Mackenzie used a newspaper off ed
- 9:15Speaker 5: to propose the Treasurer look at whether divestiture powers could
- 9:19Speaker 5: reduce market concentration. But the Nationals say they don't want
- 9:23Speaker 5: to break up Quantus, only to have the powers to
- 9:25Speaker 5: do so. Considered, well, it's not coalition policy yet because
- 9:29Speaker 5: we haven't got the evidence.
- 9:30Speaker 9: Another evidence free and damaging thought bubble.
- 9:35Speaker 2: Two new polls out today more bad news for the
- 9:37Speaker 2: Albanezer government. The first reporting fifty one percent of voters
- 9:40Speaker 2: hold Labour responsible for high inflation. Despite the treasure Jim
- 9:45Speaker 2: Chalmer's spin and the billiance he's spent in cost of
- 9:48Speaker 2: living handouts. The result of Political Marta shows Labour in
- 9:52Speaker 2: trouble too, slipping one point to a terminally low primary
- 9:56Speaker 2: vote of twenty eight percent, the Coalition remaining steady at
- 9:59Speaker 2: thirty seve seven. The other poll, this one conducted by
- 10:02Speaker 2: Wolf and Smith, shows voters deserting Labor, losing four percentage
- 10:07Speaker 2: points since May twenty twenty two, the Coalition again remaining steady.
- 10:13Speaker 2: For more on this than the other top stories of
- 10:15Speaker 2: the day, I'm joined now by Sky one's Political Report
- 10:17Speaker 2: at cam Redden and the Daily Telegraphs reporter James Willis Well, Jens, Welcome, James.
- 10:23Speaker 2: I'll go to you first. We've seen the spin in
- 10:26Speaker 2: overdrive in the last couple of weeks, trying to win
- 10:28Speaker 2: the voters, over going hard on the Reserve Bank. That
- 10:33Speaker 2: poll's pretty clear they're not moving and if you look
- 10:35Speaker 2: at those numbers, if you go back to that second poll,
- 10:38Speaker 2: the May twenty twenty two, it's almost this time last
- 10:41Speaker 2: year when the Prime Minister really lost the signature you know,
- 10:46Speaker 2: ask he had of this term, which was the voice,
- 10:49Speaker 2: is never really recovered in the polls since then.
- 10:55Speaker 6: Yeah, Peter and I think they lost an awful lot
- 10:57Speaker 6: of time, the Labor government trying to get the voice
- 11:00Speaker 6: over the line, and that distracted ultimately from the key
- 11:03Speaker 6: issue that everyone across Australia was concerned about, which was
- 11:06Speaker 6: cost of living. And we're now beginning to see the
- 11:12Speaker 6: promises that the Prime Minister made more than two years
- 11:14Speaker 6: ago when he was first elected. He's promised for a
- 11:16Speaker 6: cheaper Australian, cheaper mortgages, cheaper energy, all that sort of thing.
- 11:20Speaker 6: And what they have managed to do in the time
- 11:22Speaker 6: that they've been in government, and we've seen we saw
- 11:25Speaker 6: today that this big promise for one point two million
- 11:27Speaker 6: new houses by twenty thirty, not a single house has
- 11:31Speaker 6: been built under that major plan. We've had to give
- 11:33Speaker 6: everyone a two hundred and seventy five dollars energy bill relief.
- 11:37Speaker 6: People are smart enough to realize that's robbing Peter to
- 11:39Speaker 6: pay Paul. It's just putting money onto a credit card
- 11:41Speaker 6: that we'll have to pay down the track. The cost
- 11:43Speaker 6: of living is not getting any cheaper. We've seen that
- 11:47Speaker 6: people that are in unions or people that are linked
- 11:49Speaker 6: to government jobs, public service jobs, attached to the ndies,
- 11:53Speaker 6: they seem to be doing quite well. But for the
- 11:55Speaker 6: average person in these mortgage belts of Australia that don't
- 11:59Speaker 6: qualify for all a lot of the government relief that's
- 12:01Speaker 6: been handed out over the past few years. People are
- 12:03Speaker 6: beginning to wonder what the Prime Minister's plan is to
- 12:06Speaker 6: get them out of this.
- 12:07Speaker 10: And I think the.
- 12:08Speaker 6: Cheap shots at the Reserve Bank didn't do them any
- 12:10Speaker 6: favor in the last few days as well, so they're
- 12:13Speaker 6: certainly in big trouble.
- 12:14Speaker 10: We know when I heard your editorial off the top.
- 12:16Speaker 6: We know that Anthony Albanezi didn't win the last election
- 12:19Speaker 6: by a rud like majority or a hawk like majority.
- 12:23Speaker 10: It is very very tight and if.
- 12:25Speaker 6: People don't start getting a discount on their mortgages and
- 12:28Speaker 6: start seeing some of these things come under control, then
- 12:31Speaker 6: the Prime Minister is in big trouble heading into the
- 12:33Speaker 6: next pole.
- 12:36Speaker 2: It's interesting too, it's often perception not reality, so they
- 12:39Speaker 2: don't have to be themselves in trouble on their mortgage yet,
- 12:43Speaker 2: but they know it's coming and they've got to see
- 12:45Speaker 2: that the government's got a plan, that they've got adults
- 12:47Speaker 2: in charge, and I think that's where the government's shooting
- 12:49Speaker 2: itself in the foot. Can We've got data out today
- 12:51Speaker 2: and this underscores a point James is making there about
- 12:54Speaker 2: you know, people in the public service payroll doing quite
- 12:57Speaker 2: well compared to others who are struggling. Two thirds of
- 13:00Speaker 2: the jobs created under labor are taxpayer jobs. Six hundred
- 13:05Speaker 2: thousand people join the market the jobs market in the
- 13:07Speaker 2: last two years they were employed in public sector roles.
- 13:11Speaker 2: Only about three hundred thousand were jobs added to the
- 13:15Speaker 2: private sector. Now, this is a real issue because it's
- 13:20Speaker 2: the same people who are earning money as taxpayers in
- 13:23Speaker 2: the private sector bankrolling these government jobs, which is all
- 13:27Speaker 2: a part of I think labour's gaining the system to
- 13:30Speaker 2: keep us out of recession, keep bringing in people, keep
- 13:32Speaker 2: the population nice and high, keep spending up big. But
- 13:36Speaker 2: it's all artificial money.
- 13:39Speaker 5: Yeah, And it goes back to that notion of a
- 13:41Speaker 5: per capita recession. Peter, any economist will tell you that
- 13:43Speaker 5: a per capita recession is what people actually feel. That
- 13:46Speaker 5: means that you're going backwards, even if the economy on
- 13:49Speaker 5: the numbers and the numerical basis of it might be
- 13:52Speaker 5: going forward, because of course, if you bring more people in,
- 13:54Speaker 5: you're producing more as an economy, just on the pure
- 13:57Speaker 5: ones and zeros of it, and therefore the economy grows
- 14:00Speaker 5: per head, it means people are going backwards and six
- 14:02Speaker 5: straight quarters now is what we've been in on that
- 14:05Speaker 5: notion too, of the idea that government spending is keeping
- 14:09Speaker 5: us out of recession. There's some competitive economic thinking about this,
- 14:13Speaker 5: because one argument that is being made is that, well,
- 14:16Speaker 5: perhaps if the government had scaled back its spending sooner,
- 14:19Speaker 5: that might have cleared the way for the Reserve Bank
- 14:22Speaker 5: to deliver one or two rate cuts by now, therefore
- 14:24Speaker 5: allowing public i should say, private spending to rise in
- 14:28Speaker 5: its place as government spending fell off, so like a
- 14:30Speaker 5: leveling out of the scales, if you like. So that
- 14:32Speaker 5: kind of leads us into this game of chicken now
- 14:35Speaker 5: nine months from an election, or does the Reserve Bank
- 14:38Speaker 5: cut rates, hope the government scales back on spending and
- 14:41Speaker 5: potentially risk inflation going even higher. Or does the government
- 14:45Speaker 5: roll the dice, does it cut its spending and hope
- 14:48Speaker 5: the Reserve Bank cuts rates, but risk sending us into
- 14:51Speaker 5: recession right before an election. So look, it's all about timing,
- 14:54Speaker 5: and none of it really bodes well for the government.
- 14:56Speaker 2: I've got to say, Yeah, Michelle Bollok's not stupid. She's
- 15:00Speaker 2: been in the RBA A long time mate. She's watched
- 15:02Speaker 2: plenty of governments. I don't think any government cut spending
- 15:05Speaker 2: going into an election, let alone a Labor government. And
- 15:09Speaker 2: this government's got form. They love spending our money. I
- 15:11Speaker 2: don't think that's going to happen. So I think she'll
- 15:13Speaker 2: hold off what we might call what's the whole story
- 15:17Speaker 2: with this census issue and sexual orientation questions gender being
- 15:21Speaker 2: included in the twenty twenty sixth census. James, it's a
- 15:24Speaker 2: real own goal from Labor. I'm surprised they've made this mistake.
- 15:29Speaker 2: It's opened up a big fight with them on the
- 15:30Speaker 2: hard left and the Greens and others have gone after
- 15:33Speaker 2: the PM today in question time, what's the backstory here?
- 15:38Speaker 6: Well, I think it's embarrassing, Peter, and I think you
- 15:40Speaker 6: spoke about adults being in the room.
- 15:42Speaker 10: I'm not too right now.
- 15:44Speaker 6: I'm not even sure about what's actually occurred or what
- 15:47Speaker 6: the final decision is. What I do know is that
- 15:50Speaker 6: we've had threats of boycotts, we've had apologies, we've had
- 15:54Speaker 6: MPs of all levels saying oh look, it's really really
- 15:57Speaker 6: unfair to not include questions in the census about a
- 16:00Speaker 6: sexual identity or anything to do with the lgbt QI community.
- 16:06Speaker 6: We had a promise from Labor to include this in
- 16:09Speaker 6: the twenty twenty six senses. Two weeks ago we had
- 16:12Speaker 6: Richard Mars, the Deputy Prime Minister, say well, we're probably
- 16:15Speaker 6: not going to do that and we're going to be
- 16:16Speaker 6: driven by science and data.
- 16:18Speaker 10: So he made his point there.
- 16:19Speaker 6: Then there was more backlash and we're now hearing the
- 16:22Speaker 6: Prime Minister may have caved and tried to make everyone
- 16:25Speaker 6: happy and sort of meet halfway and include some questions
- 16:28Speaker 6: but not others. But ultimately this is a distraction the
- 16:31Speaker 6: Prime Minister did not need right now.
- 16:34Speaker 10: It's eaten up a lot.
- 16:35Speaker 6: Of column inches and it's the kind of thing that
- 16:37Speaker 6: I think could have been resolved at a much lower level,
- 16:41Speaker 6: behind closed doors, rather than become the front.
- 16:43Speaker 10: Page story in certain newspapers. It all seems a bit.
- 16:46Speaker 6: Of a mess and it's the kind of distraction the
- 16:48Speaker 6: Prime Minister didn't need right now.
- 16:52Speaker 2: And it's given to him. His first leaks out of
- 16:54Speaker 2: cabinet three ministers were unnamed, obviously noted as sources. The
- 16:58Speaker 2: other day, what's going on the set with that build
- 17:00Speaker 2: the environmental or reform build from time to plev st can.
- 17:03Speaker 2: It looks like there's been some horse training there with
- 17:06Speaker 2: the Greens. They would to block fossil fuel projects, I'm told,
- 17:10Speaker 2: and some logging.
- 17:13Speaker 5: Yeah, still stuck in the mud on this one, Peter.
- 17:14Speaker 5: It all boils down to this idea of what's called
- 17:16Speaker 5: a climate trigger. This new agency that Tania polipisect the
- 17:19Speaker 5: Minister wants to set up, would essentially be a regulator
- 17:22Speaker 5: that would have the power to approve or block big
- 17:25Speaker 5: new projects, think minds, think damns, those sorts of things.
- 17:29Speaker 5: The Greens want a clause put into this agency and
- 17:32Speaker 5: everything that goes before it that if a project is
- 17:35Speaker 5: to emit so much in terms of greenhouse gas emissions,
- 17:38Speaker 5: or if it meets certain climate criteria, that it would
- 17:40Speaker 5: automatically be blocked. Now they've said today that they're willing
- 17:43Speaker 5: to compromise to some extent on the design of what
- 17:46Speaker 5: that climate trigger might look like. But the Greens aren't
- 17:49Speaker 5: going to budge on having nothing or something, if you like.
- 17:52Speaker 5: They want some kind of mechanism that would allow for
- 17:55Speaker 5: the blocking of projects on climate ground. So it's still
- 17:58Speaker 5: in the process of being threshed out behind the scenes.
- 18:01Speaker 5: I'm told that that's likely to go throughout much of
- 18:03Speaker 5: this week and we may not even have an outcome
- 18:05Speaker 5: by week's end, but you can you can obviously see
- 18:08Speaker 5: how sensitive this is given the current debate around the
- 18:10Speaker 5: Blaney mind issue and the Coalition saying well, we don't
- 18:14Speaker 5: just want more triggers that can be pulled for these
- 18:16Speaker 5: major projects to be blocked, whether that's on environmental or
- 18:19Speaker 5: on heritage grounds.
- 18:23Speaker 2: James. A couple of days ago, I was talking about
- 18:26Speaker 2: cuts to particular drugs. We know that there was a
- 18:30Speaker 2: critical shortage of ivy fluids in Australia. We know that
- 18:33Speaker 2: was a shortage of oral morphine it's a painkiller used
- 18:36Speaker 2: by pagative care patients. Well, today we learn there are
- 18:39Speaker 2: more nationwide drug shortages, this one hitting critical obstetric medicines.
- 18:45Speaker 2: Without these drugs, pregnant women are put at risk of
- 18:48Speaker 2: serious complications. It's to do with high blood pressure and pregnancy.
- 18:52Speaker 2: The Society of Obstetric Medicine in Australia and New Zealand
- 18:55Speaker 2: have said this is a perilous situation. Now, I don't
- 18:59Speaker 2: know what the Health min is bloody well doing if
- 19:01Speaker 2: it is not working to get these critical drugs into
- 19:04Speaker 2: Australia or at least getting some supplies. Here's some manufacturers
- 19:09Speaker 2: to pick up the slack. This goes to the stuff
- 19:11Speaker 2: that cuts through with ordinary people and changes their perception
- 19:15Speaker 2: of the government.
- 19:17Speaker 6: That's right, and it's a massive vote when you start saying, well,
- 19:21Speaker 6: instead of relying on overseas supply of anything.
- 19:24Speaker 10: We're going to make it right here.
- 19:25Speaker 6: We're going to open an Australian made factory, or we're
- 19:28Speaker 6: going to start doing it here so that we don't
- 19:30Speaker 6: have to rely on the supply chains being cut or
- 19:32Speaker 6: anything else.
- 19:33Speaker 10: But look, my consumer, this.
- 19:34Speaker 6: Is You've got doctors, you've got gynecologers saying this is
- 19:37Speaker 6: putting lives at risk. They've been raising the alarm on
- 19:40Speaker 6: this for quite some time. They've now written about it
- 19:42Speaker 6: at length. And you've got the TGA saying we're very
- 19:44Speaker 6: concerned about the shortages and we're doing our best. Now,
- 19:47Speaker 6: at what point do we get ahead of this and
- 19:50Speaker 6: start saying, well, these are the medicines that are in
- 19:52Speaker 6: short supply, we're going to start making these here. We've
- 19:55Speaker 6: got this big National Future Fund which is meant to
- 19:57Speaker 6: be worth fifteen billion dollars. Let's start put some of
- 20:00Speaker 6: that money to use and start making some Australian made things,
- 20:03Speaker 6: so we don't have to rely on this problem until
- 20:05Speaker 6: it's too late. But we do every time, one after
- 20:08Speaker 6: the other. It'll be another medicine next week. Not long
- 20:10Speaker 6: ago it was diabetes, medicine related to weight loss things.
- 20:14Speaker 6: I mean, this just keeps happening. Let's start making it
- 20:16Speaker 6: right here and we don't have to worry about the
- 20:17Speaker 6: rest of the world.
- 20:20Speaker 2: I'll tell you I'd forget hydrogen by twenty fifty or
- 20:23Speaker 2: sixty or whatever they've got. Let's get some medicines made
- 20:25Speaker 2: in Australia right now. Gentlemen, thank you all right, listen
- 20:29Speaker 2: to this. You often hear it said that Australia faces
- 20:31Speaker 2: a gas shortage, only we don't. We face a gas
- 20:36Speaker 2: supply issue. But that's a very different thing, because we've
- 20:39Speaker 2: got plenty of gas in the ground. We just lack
- 20:41Speaker 2: the political will to extract it. And it's because of
- 20:44Speaker 2: this lack of will and the left now demonizing gas
- 20:48Speaker 2: as much as cole. We face blackouts ahead. And nowhere
- 20:53Speaker 2: is there a concern more profound than in Victoria, where
- 20:56Speaker 2: about our natural gas will eventually cause residents to retro
- 20:59Speaker 2: fit their homes with electric appliances. But in some good
- 21:03Speaker 2: news of a sorts today, the Allen government's now reversed
- 21:07Speaker 2: at least one aspect of that decision. One man who's
- 21:11Speaker 2: led the charge against these bands, Victoria's Shadow Minister for Energy,
- 21:15Speaker 2: David Davis, joins me, Now, well it's been so it
- 21:19Speaker 2: was a big win for households, David. But you dig
- 21:23Speaker 2: a little bit deeper into the detail, I reckinon. There's
- 21:26Speaker 2: a whole lot of window dressing here. I mean, as
- 21:29Speaker 2: I read it, she'll let me have a gas stove
- 21:33Speaker 2: but not a gas heater, am I.
- 21:34Speaker 8: Right you are? And it's a sham. It's an absolute shambles.
- 21:40Speaker 8: It's chaos in Victoria with energy policy. So we've got
- 21:45Speaker 8: a government that said we're going to let you have cookers,
- 21:48Speaker 8: but we're not going to let you have gas hot water,
- 21:51Speaker 8: and we're not going to let you have gas heating.
- 21:54Speaker 8: So and meanwhile new estates have gas banned on them.
- 21:59Speaker 8: You're not allowed to connect a new connection to gas
- 22:03Speaker 8: on the network since the first of January. So the
- 22:06Speaker 8: state government's war on gas is continuing. It's a shambles.
- 22:10Speaker 8: It's an absolute chaos. What on earth is the logic
- 22:14Speaker 8: of allowing just cookers. But if you're gas ducted, and
- 22:21Speaker 8: you know, for the rest of Australia, Victoria is cooler
- 22:24Speaker 8: than a lot of parts of Australia, and that gas
- 22:27Speaker 8: ducted heating is a very important part of keeping Melbournians
- 22:32Speaker 8: and other Victorians worn. Now, if you're forced to rip
- 22:36Speaker 8: out the gas ducted heating, put in a heat pump
- 22:39Speaker 8: up on the side of the wall in one room,
- 22:42Speaker 8: that's not the same. It's not the same as the
- 22:45Speaker 8: warmth and house wide heating that you get with gas ducted.
- 22:51Speaker 8: We're going this is really heading back to the nineteen
- 22:54Speaker 8: sixties before gas was supplied natural gas, i should say
- 22:58Speaker 8: was supplied, and all of this from an ideological government
- 23:02Speaker 8: that has declared war on gas, won't allow any exploration
- 23:07Speaker 8: for that gas, you know, and now says, oh, well,
- 23:11Speaker 8: we might let some happen. But the truth is ten
- 23:14Speaker 8: years the gas supply shortage is their fault. They should
- 23:18Speaker 8: have dealt with this. We should have lots of gas
- 23:20Speaker 8: is on shore, conventional gas in Victoria that's available. It's
- 23:25Speaker 8: just that they haven't given me permits for people to explore.
- 23:28Speaker 8: So Victorians.
- 23:30Speaker 2: One of the things with the price David chaotic policy.
- 23:35Speaker 2: One of the things that's been put to me by
- 23:37Speaker 2: Polsters and others is that the reason why they've made
- 23:39Speaker 2: this change on cookers and not heaters. And of course
- 23:42Speaker 2: you spend a lot more on your gas heating than
- 23:44Speaker 2: you do on your gas sove in terms of running it.
- 23:46Speaker 2: But the reason why they've done this, there's been a
- 23:48Speaker 2: huge backlash against Labor from Asian and Indian voters who
- 23:54Speaker 2: love to cook with gas. The homes are connected to gas.
- 23:57Speaker 2: They love the wock cooking in that style of cuisine,
- 24:01Speaker 2: and that's why Labor backing down on this. That's what's
- 24:03Speaker 2: been put to me.
- 24:05Speaker 8: Or do you think, well, there's no doubt that Indian
- 24:09Speaker 8: families and Asian families certainly love their gas cooking, but
- 24:14Speaker 8: so does the average Aussie. The average Australian you know,
- 24:19Speaker 8: a British background in Victoria, loves their gas cooking. That's
- 24:23Speaker 8: the truth of the matter. People want that, they want
- 24:26Speaker 8: that option. It is true if if you want to
- 24:28Speaker 8: cook your walk, it's much better on a gas stove.
- 24:33Speaker 8: But this should be about choice. To Peter, it shouldn't
- 24:36Speaker 8: be mandating that choice is closed off like this. Even
- 24:40Speaker 8: the federal governments recognize that Australians should have a choice
- 24:45Speaker 8: on what sort of energy they put in their home.
- 24:48Speaker 8: But this government, a very ideological government, is determined to
- 24:53Speaker 8: cut that choice and continue their war on gas, a
- 24:56Speaker 8: ban on gas. They've moved, for example, rental properties. They're
- 25:01Speaker 8: moving on rental properties to say, if you're a landlord
- 25:05Speaker 8: and the gas ducted heating, you know it reaches the
- 25:08Speaker 8: end of its life, you will not be allowed to
- 25:12Speaker 8: connect a gas ducted heating system back in. You will
- 25:16Speaker 8: have to go to a heat pump. You will have
- 25:18Speaker 8: to go to an electric option. Now, those electric options
- 25:22Speaker 8: are just not going to heat the house the same.
- 25:24Speaker 8: That's the truth of the matter. And I'll tell you
- 25:26Speaker 8: what people do when they've got inadequate heating. They rush
- 25:29Speaker 8: out and they buy those small fan heaters. They put
- 25:32Speaker 8: them around their feet and they heat the bedroom with
- 25:36Speaker 8: those small fan heaters, and that choose through the power,
- 25:40Speaker 8: like you know, very very fast. Indeed, So it's actually
- 25:43Speaker 8: this is counterproductive, counterproductive, it's actually ideological, and the government's
- 25:49Speaker 8: war on gas is continuing. No new heaters.
- 25:54Speaker 2: Just before we go, no new gas, yep, just before
- 26:00Speaker 2: we go. Victoria heavily in debt, borrowing money from overseas.
- 26:05Speaker 2: So how on earth could the state afford to give
- 26:07Speaker 2: every public servant in the state five and a half
- 26:10Speaker 2: thousand dollars as a cost of living payment?
- 26:16Speaker 8: Where you'd have to ask a set of questions there,
- 26:20Speaker 8: and you know, the state, if it wants to pay
- 26:22Speaker 8: people more and it wants a higher stand of living,
- 26:25Speaker 8: we've got to stop the waste. This is more than
- 26:28Speaker 8: forty billion dollars of waste on large projects. It's no
- 26:32Speaker 8: wonder where slipping behind. It's no wonder. The cost of
- 26:36Speaker 8: living is so bad in Victoria. And we're certainly in
- 26:41Speaker 8: a per capita recession in Australia, but the per capita
- 26:45Speaker 8: recession in Victoria's been running for a number of years now.
- 26:48Speaker 8: People's standard of living is falling because the government is
- 26:52Speaker 8: taxing them so harshly and squandering so much money.
- 26:57Speaker 2: All right, I'll over it there, David Davis, thank you.
- 27:00Speaker 2: Five and a half thousand dollars is to every public servant,
- 27:03Speaker 2: even those on the big wages, you know, seven eight
- 27:06Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars. Right after the break, why was the
- 27:09Speaker 2: media blocked from a treaty event in Melbourne and an
- 27:12Speaker 2: exposing letter. Explosive letter that explodes the myths behind time
- 27:17Speaker 2: in your plever sex decision to block the blaany gold
- 27:19Speaker 2: line just senter Nampa, Jimper Price Up next, Plus a
- 27:23Speaker 2: breastfeeding expert facing a legal fight for saying that transgender
- 27:27Speaker 2: women so biological men can't breastfeed or talk to Jasmine
- 27:31Speaker 2: Sussex Up soon. Stella Heir, the Victorian breastfeding expert who's
- 27:38Speaker 2: facing legal action over social media posts denying the transgender
- 27:43Speaker 2: women can breastfeed. Why she says she won't be silenced
- 27:47Speaker 2: Up next, But first, Despite the national referendum rejecting an
- 27:51Speaker 2: Indigenous voice to the Parliament, many states are taking it
- 27:54Speaker 2: upon themselves to introduce the Treaty and so called truth
- 27:58Speaker 2: telling anyway. First out of the blocks, no surprises here
- 28:02Speaker 2: is Victoria. Over the weekend, a treaty event billed as
- 28:05Speaker 2: a public meeting was held in the Melbourne suburb of Greensborough.
- 28:09Speaker 2: Sky News reporter Georgie Dickerson went along to try and
- 28:13Speaker 2: find out exactly what was happening.
- 28:17Speaker 11: Putting a focus on First Nations issues. This community forum
- 28:21Speaker 11: in Greensboro, northeast of Melbourne, was organized to educate locals
- 28:25Speaker 11: on treaty very important.
- 28:27Speaker 10: It's critical.
- 28:28Speaker 9: So we broke up in this country and started to
- 28:32Speaker 9: loud the truth of our true history. We need to
- 28:35Speaker 9: work with them, whereas they say, walk with them.
- 28:39Speaker 11: Almost three hundred people registered their interest for the event.
- 28:43Speaker 11: Q and A discussions were a central aspect of the
- 28:46Speaker 11: forum to answer the community's questions and concerns.
- 28:50Speaker 2: Two reasons, to find out more about what's proposed as
- 28:54Speaker 2: part of a treaty and secondly, to hear what other people.
- 28:58Speaker 1: Have to say treaty will work. I think lots of
- 29:02Speaker 1: people have concerns about what a treaty might mean, and
- 29:05Speaker 1: from what I've seen so far, there's no real reason
- 29:09Speaker 1: for anybody to be particularly worried about it.
- 29:10Speaker 12: The opportunity for face to face discussions I think are
- 29:13Speaker 12: really important because it's so easy to have social media
- 29:18Speaker 12: all sorts of media content that we get these days
- 29:22Speaker 12: that is very curated, very siloed, and it just kind
- 29:25Speaker 12: of builds people's engagement with what they're already thinking.
- 29:30Speaker 11: Many people Sky and You spoke with on their way
- 29:32Speaker 11: to the event, we're already supportive of the idea of
- 29:35Speaker 11: treaty in Victoria.
- 29:37Speaker 7: Most of the people I talk to and no do
- 29:40Speaker 7: want this to happen, and it's really important for the
- 29:44Speaker 7: country way over you.
- 29:45Speaker 2: It was promised a long time ago.
- 29:47Speaker 13: I think it's really important that we begin to engage
- 29:50Speaker 13: in a really detailed way with the First Nations people
- 29:53Speaker 13: of our country and to recognize what our entitlements are
- 29:57Speaker 13: and what their entitlements are.
- 29:58Speaker 11: Sky News attended the media today with the intention of
- 30:01Speaker 11: filming the forum for news coverage. Unfortunately, our request to
- 30:05Speaker 11: film the event was denied and we are unable to
- 30:08Speaker 11: show you what happened inside. Proponents of treating in Victoria's
- 30:12Speaker 11: say it would help put practical frameworks in place to
- 30:15Speaker 11: implement better policies and give First Nations people are great
- 30:18Speaker 11: to say on issues that impact their everyday lives.
- 30:22Speaker 1: It's something that's going to happen in Victoria hopefully, and
- 30:26Speaker 1: you know, you want to you want to bring people along.
- 30:27Speaker 1: You want people to understand that every single nation on
- 30:30Speaker 1: Earth that that has involved, you know, colonization, has made
- 30:35Speaker 1: a treaty with the indigenous people and you know, all
- 30:38Speaker 1: of those countries are doing fine and there are you know,
- 30:41Speaker 1: it's not a it's not a problematic thing. And the
- 30:43Speaker 1: fact that Australia hasn't done. It really makes us stand
- 30:45Speaker 1: out as a as a country that's that's kind of
- 30:48Speaker 1: hiding from its.
- 30:48Speaker 11: Past treating negotiations in Victoria and due to beginning later
- 30:52Speaker 11: this year. This process is designed to determine what is
- 30:55Speaker 11: included in treaty. That framework would then be legislated in Parliament.
- 30:59Speaker 13: Hope going to be a strong message that they'll listened to.
- 31:02Speaker 11: Georgie Dickinson, Sky News Melbourne.
- 31:06Speaker 2: All right for her take of joined now by Shadow
- 31:08Speaker 2: Minister for Indigenous Australians Senator Price, will welcome. First of all,
- 31:14Speaker 2: obviously the media were blocked, but you can see from
- 31:17Speaker 2: everyone turning up there just into I don't think there
- 31:19Speaker 2: was one person that had any skepticism about a treaty.
- 31:23Speaker 2: And I remind people at home Victoria voted against the
- 31:26Speaker 2: Voice last year, even woke Victoria. This is all done
- 31:31Speaker 2: with public money. Why the secrecy, Well, that's exactly right.
- 31:37Speaker 7: I mean that should be the first red flag so
- 31:41Speaker 7: far in this process. It should have been made public.
- 31:45Speaker 7: It's a publicly funded event. This is going to affect
- 31:48Speaker 7: all Victorians. You can absolutely see the naivety from those attending.
- 31:54Speaker 7: But you know what's concerning is the lack of transparency
- 31:59Speaker 7: in this process. We also know that the First Nation's
- 32:02Speaker 7: Assembly only had a ten percent vote to turn out
- 32:07Speaker 7: to elect its members. So can it legitimately say it
- 32:11Speaker 7: is a representative body of Indigenous Victorians? And you can
- 32:16Speaker 7: already hear the language being used by those attending is
- 32:20Speaker 7: a real US and them approach. I mean, we are
- 32:23Speaker 7: Australian citizens, Indigenous Victorians Australian citizens. There shouldn't be this
- 32:29Speaker 7: US and them approach that certainly this process is.
- 32:34Speaker 2: Ingraining that division within communities. It can feel the game though,
- 32:41Speaker 2: you know, get these state treaties up, don't ask too
- 32:44Speaker 2: many questions, have these little forums. I mean, three hundred
- 32:47Speaker 2: people in Melbourne's not a big number to get along
- 32:49Speaker 2: to something. I don't let the media are in be
- 32:52Speaker 2: able to say as they will after that meeting, everyone
- 32:55Speaker 2: was in support of it. Push it through the parliament.
- 32:58Speaker 2: You'll get it through the Victorian parliament and then the
- 33:00Speaker 2: Prime Minister will be compelled once there's a number of
- 33:03Speaker 2: states with the treaty to say, well, look at all
- 33:04Speaker 2: the states have got a treaty, we really need want
- 33:06Speaker 2: at a national level. He won't put that to a
- 33:09Speaker 2: referendum and all of a sudden will be where we voted.
- 33:12Speaker 2: We didn't want to go this time last year.
- 33:17Speaker 7: Oh yeah, It's really deeply concerning stuff. And especially when
- 33:22Speaker 7: you've got a represent a body that's claiming to be
- 33:24Speaker 7: a representative body with such.
- 33:26Speaker 2: A low voter turnout.
- 33:27Speaker 7: You know, it's like this, what's going what's underway in
- 33:30Speaker 7: South Australia at the moment with their legislated voice again
- 33:34Speaker 7: ten percent voter turnout, where's that going to go to?
- 33:37Speaker 2: You can't suggest that.
- 33:39Speaker 7: With these sort of shady closed door events and this
- 33:45Speaker 7: inability to provide account of transparency, that this is actually
- 33:50Speaker 7: going to be a true democratic process that heads toward legislation.
- 33:56Speaker 7: And this legislation process but you know, we all know
- 34:00Speaker 7: that mister Albanezi is sitting in the background waiting for
- 34:03Speaker 7: all these states to conduct their treaty processes and then
- 34:08Speaker 7: ram it on through and Australians should be very concerned.
- 34:11Speaker 2: This is going to affect every single one of us.
- 34:15Speaker 7: But we know that there's governance issues as accountability issues
- 34:17Speaker 7: with many organizations.
- 34:19Speaker 2: Why would we want to extend that further through this
- 34:21Speaker 2: process over the weekend. This is going back to the
- 34:26Speaker 2: blaming gold mine. Over the weekend The Australian had a letter,
- 34:29Speaker 2: an explosive letter. It showed the claims of ancient camp ovens,
- 34:34Speaker 2: possible burial sites, an initiation area near the proposed mind
- 34:40Speaker 2: We're all examined and then dismissed as having no authenticity
- 34:45Speaker 2: by Indigenous elders representing the local Land Council. This is
- 34:50Speaker 2: an ongoing issue just under its still dogging the minister.
- 34:55Speaker 2: Surely we've got real problems here that these new and
- 34:58Speaker 2: emerging groups may not bit all representative of those with
- 35:02Speaker 2: a long recognized Aboriginal leadership in a particular area, are
- 35:06Speaker 2: somehow getting primacy over the groups that, in this case
- 35:11Speaker 2: the blady might have been dealing with for decades.
- 35:15Speaker 7: Absolutely, and this is the concern that is taking place.
- 35:20Speaker 7: This is why we need to take a closer look
- 35:22Speaker 7: at Native title, at things like the Ooriginal Heritage Act,
- 35:28Speaker 7: the Heritage Actor that I know that my colleague Senator
- 35:32Speaker 7: Dunham is looking wants to look closer at to review
- 35:36Speaker 7: because we can't allow a situation where we get false
- 35:40Speaker 7: claims being made, pushed by activists who are anti development,
- 35:45Speaker 7: who just want to bring an end to a lot
- 35:48Speaker 7: of these projects that we're seeing. I mean, when the
- 35:52Speaker 7: Minister wants to override and disregard the legal entity the
- 35:57Speaker 7: orange Land Council who have this proven these claims and
- 36:01Speaker 7: listen to a group that is a registered charity not
- 36:06Speaker 7: actually a representative group of the traditional owners instead in
- 36:11Speaker 7: making a decision that affects not just the Indigenous people
- 36:14Speaker 7: in that community, but the entire region in terms of
- 36:19Speaker 7: creating prosperity, in terms of creating jobs and a future
- 36:23Speaker 7: for their kids that region. It's deeply concerning and we
- 36:26Speaker 7: absolutely need to look closer. You wrong justent to thank
- 36:31Speaker 7: you or I still come. A breastfeeding experts' efforts to
- 36:35Speaker 7: protect free speech even as she dragged before a tribunal
- 36:39Speaker 7: for defending basic biology. Jasmine Sussex upnext, still Heir the
- 36:49Speaker 7: PM and a fire for his behavior at the footy
- 36:51Speaker 7: over the weekend.
- 36:52Speaker 2: I mean, it is a shocker. More on that with
- 36:54Speaker 2: my panel in the moment. The first a Victorian breastfeeding
- 36:57Speaker 2: experts being taken to Queensland's Civil Administrative Tribunal after she
- 37:02Speaker 2: criticized attempts at breastfeeding by trans women so biological men.
- 37:07Speaker 2: This practice involves biological men who have transitioned, taking hormones
- 37:12Speaker 2: to stimulate milk production from an anatomically male breast. In
- 37:17Speaker 2: a series of social media posts, Jasmine Sussex claims it's
- 37:21Speaker 2: experimental and it's a dangerous fetish. This latest controversy comes
- 37:26Speaker 2: after she was sacked by the Australian Breastfeeding Association back
- 37:30Speaker 2: in twenty twenty one and came on here on Kredline
- 37:33Speaker 2: after she refused to use gender neutral language like chest
- 37:38Speaker 2: feeding rather than breastfeeding. But Miss Sussex is vowed she
- 37:42Speaker 2: won't be silenced. I'm pleased to say, I'm delighted to
- 37:45Speaker 2: say the very brave, Jasmine joins me. Now, we were
- 37:48Speaker 2: talking in the break, weren't we. I mean, the world
- 37:50Speaker 2: is crazy. Now, were you surprised that you got this
- 37:54Speaker 2: anti discrimination complaint leveled at you?
- 37:57Speaker 9: I was just because I have no real relationship with
- 38:00Speaker 9: this man, and he's been campaigning online for years, literally
- 38:06Speaker 9: since he transitioned, to normalize this practice of trans women
- 38:11Speaker 9: trying to induce lactation, and so it took the Queensland
- 38:16Speaker 9: Human Rights Commission a long time to process his complaints.
- 38:20Speaker 9: So I thought that he was accepting that there are
- 38:24Speaker 9: different views in the community, but obviously not.
- 38:28Speaker 2: I think there's one big view in the community. I mean,
- 38:30Speaker 2: most people would think that this is beyond the pale
- 38:34Speaker 2: I suspect. In the medical community, it's divided. I mean,
- 38:37Speaker 2: you're a lactation specialist. How on earth does someone with
- 38:43Speaker 2: male breasts lactape for a baby? What quality of milk
- 38:48Speaker 2: is that for an infant? Yeah, well, we just really
- 38:50Speaker 2: don't know.
- 38:52Speaker 9: There's a handful of case reports that have been published
- 38:56Speaker 9: in really the transactivist medical lobbies, so in the endochronology
- 39:02Speaker 9: journals and in the trans health journals, so that they
- 39:06Speaker 9: really don't tell us anything other than the experience of
- 39:10Speaker 9: that individual trans identifying man, you know, and what he claims.
- 39:15Speaker 9: They're all self reports, so no one's had them in
- 39:19Speaker 9: a laboratory expressing milk or you know, we just it.
- 39:22Speaker 2: Would be the same quality as a woman's milk with
- 39:24Speaker 2: colosstrum and everything else that comes from that. Is it
- 39:27Speaker 2: the same quality of breast milk?
- 39:28Speaker 9: Yeah, it seems very unlikely. You know, men who have
- 39:34Speaker 9: disorders of the peturitary glands, the hormone centers that contribute
- 39:41Speaker 9: to breastfeeding, can secrete a fluid from their chests even
- 39:46Speaker 9: if they haven't, you know, if they're not trans women.
- 39:49Speaker 9: So you know, we know from that that there's some
- 39:52Speaker 9: things in that fluid that's similar to mother's milk, but
- 39:58Speaker 9: one of the major problems seems to be that they
- 40:00Speaker 9: only make starvation quantities of this fluid and.
- 40:04Speaker 2: We're never enough to feed an infant.
- 40:05Speaker 9: No no, So you know, and you also just have
- 40:08Speaker 9: to ask, well, why, you know, why do they want
- 40:11Speaker 9: to and should we indulge that kind of selfish desire
- 40:15Speaker 9: to use the baby to affirm their gender identity.
- 40:18Speaker 2: You know, that's really my concern.
- 40:20Speaker 9: I think it's a safeguarding issue, and I also think,
- 40:24Speaker 9: you know, I'm sure it's a small group within the
- 40:27Speaker 9: trans community who are advocating for this, because everybody loves
- 40:32Speaker 9: their children, but you know, really we just need to
- 40:36Speaker 9: protect the mother baby diad. They're the only ones that can,
- 40:40Speaker 9: you know, as a natural flow of pregnancy and then
- 40:44Speaker 9: they're able to breastfeed, and everybody else really needs to
- 40:47Speaker 9: get out of the way.
- 40:49Speaker 2: We've spent a lot of i think time if in publicity,
- 40:53Speaker 2: over the probably the last thirty years, forty years. Maybe
- 40:55Speaker 2: it's certainly in my lifetime to normalize breastfeeding to make
- 40:59Speaker 2: it publicly acceptable, where perhaps it wasn't a few years back.
- 41:03Speaker 2: To encourage women to persevere if they were having trouble,
- 41:06Speaker 2: experts like you were available via the Breastfeeding Association. But
- 41:10Speaker 2: at the same time that association gets rid of you
- 41:14Speaker 2: because you want to keep saying mother and breastfeeding words
- 41:18Speaker 2: that are innate to women, and you're now being forced
- 41:21Speaker 2: to use all this gender language that just I think
- 41:26Speaker 2: most Australians would say you're right and their wrong.
- 41:29Speaker 9: Well, I've definitely had overwhelming support from Australians in the
- 41:33Speaker 9: last couple of days, and you know a lot of
- 41:36Speaker 9: people just can't really believe that this is happening. You know,
- 41:39Speaker 9: they thought it was just about language a few years back,
- 41:42Speaker 9: but now they realized the language was.
- 41:45Speaker 2: Away in the true point.
- 41:46Speaker 9: Yeah, that's exactly right, And really we've been gas lit
- 41:50Speaker 9: into normalizing that, you know, breastfeedings for everybody, when really.
- 41:56Speaker 2: Women have been gasoline. Yeah, you know, it's not women
- 41:58Speaker 2: necessarily here pretending blokes getting into men's changing rooms in
- 42:02Speaker 2: men's spaces. It's women who are losing everything we thought
- 42:05Speaker 2: for for so long, Jasmine, that's the problem.
- 42:09Speaker 9: Yeah, it's definitely the problem. And I think you know,
- 42:13Speaker 9: the health ministers and the attorney generals, these people who said,
- 42:17Speaker 9: you know, it's a good idea to extend non discrimination
- 42:21Speaker 9: to people on the basis of gender identity, they just
- 42:24Speaker 9: need to get involved now and say or did you
- 42:27Speaker 9: really intend that.
- 42:28Speaker 2: It's crossed the line? Yeah, it's not about some level
- 42:31Speaker 2: of balance. The scales achieve really against women. So who's
- 42:35Speaker 2: helping you with your case? How can my audience get
- 42:37Speaker 2: behind you and support you any way they can?
- 42:40Speaker 9: Yeah, well, I am very lucky. The Human Rights Law
- 42:42Speaker 9: Alliance are helping me. They've been helping me since early
- 42:47Speaker 9: this year. But as we get towards the tribunal, there
- 42:50Speaker 9: are going to be legal costs. I've got to fly
- 42:52Speaker 9: up to Queensland, bizarrely for a Victorian woman, and also
- 42:57Speaker 9: will need the support of psychiatrists and pediatricians and you know,
- 43:04Speaker 9: other medical professionals to really unpack why this is quite wrong.
- 43:09Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Well, my audience behind you one hundred
- 43:11Speaker 2: and ten percent. I am to come back here anytime.
- 43:14Speaker 2: Keep us updated. Thanks, You're so brave, keep it up.
- 43:17Speaker 2: You're fighting for everyone. You really are, you really are. Thanks,
- 43:22Speaker 2: She's amazing. Right after breaking my Panel, the craziness with
- 43:26Speaker 2: the Prime Minister and the AFL footy on the weekend,
- 43:29Speaker 2: a whole lot more see you in a moment. Welcome
- 43:36Speaker 2: back All the band's back together again tonight for Howard,
- 43:39Speaker 2: Government Minister's guid Needs contributor Gary Hargraves's partner in crime
- 43:43Speaker 2: LMPMP Keith Pitt. We're going to start with nuclear. The ETU,
- 43:48Speaker 2: the Electrical Trades Union, they're planning to run a major
- 43:52Speaker 2: anti nuclear ad campaign. Labour's wanting one too, but this
- 43:55Speaker 2: is the union. The ETU national secretary says that nuclear
- 44:00Speaker 2: energy will pose a risk to existing jobs. Labour's attack
- 44:04Speaker 2: ads have gone out today. They say your plan, Keith Pitt,
- 44:08Speaker 2: could cost some six hundred billion dollars. What do you
- 44:12Speaker 2: make of these.
- 44:12Speaker 14: Claims, Peter, I don't know where the et you were
- 44:16Speaker 14: coming from.
- 44:16Speaker 9: Here.
- 44:17Speaker 14: There's a detailed report in the United States that says
- 44:19Speaker 14: there's actually more jobs and better pay from nuclear replacing coal.
- 44:23Speaker 3: And let's look at the difference.
- 44:25Speaker 14: So coal fired stations are obviously driven by coal to
- 44:28Speaker 14: produce steam.
- 44:28Speaker 3: Nuclear producer steam.
- 44:30Speaker 14: Everything else is the same turbines, same generation, same distribution,
- 44:34Speaker 14: same transmission, the same transformers, same protection systems the same.
- 44:39Speaker 14: So anyone that knows anything about electricity knows this is
- 44:42Speaker 14: complete nonsense.
- 44:45Speaker 2: And you say that it's an entergy yourself as an
- 44:47Speaker 2: electrical an electrical bloke in the past, and you remember
- 44:51Speaker 2: where you remember at any time with the ETU Keith Pitt.
- 44:55Speaker 14: Actually I actually was Peter very briefly as I came
- 44:58Speaker 14: out of my car and I they came after me
- 45:01Speaker 14: because I didn't pay them a bill because I was
- 45:02Speaker 14: doing I was overseas.
- 45:03Speaker 3: Had apparently you had to do it writing. You couldn't
- 45:05Speaker 3: just ring.
- 45:06Speaker 2: Up there you go, there, you go down in Victoria.
- 45:11Speaker 2: It is a cardinal sin to do a lot of
- 45:14Speaker 2: things wrong if you're an interstate or in relation to
- 45:16Speaker 2: the AFL. One of those is to wear the flag
- 45:19Speaker 2: or the scarf, sorry of any other club but your own,
- 45:22Speaker 2: even if your bunnies, even if you're at the bottom
- 45:24Speaker 2: of the lava, you've got to stick with them. You
- 45:26Speaker 2: can't shop and change. But there's pictures of the Prime Minister.
- 45:29Speaker 2: He reckons he's a Hawthorne man. While he's there in
- 45:31Speaker 2: a Hollywood scarf. A Sydney wants Swan scarf and Geelong
- 45:35Speaker 2: scuff and Hawthorne is the one at the moment. They
- 45:37Speaker 2: were in a game on the weekend and he sachets
- 45:40Speaker 2: down to the club rooms after the win against the
- 45:43Speaker 2: Western Bulldogs and Friday night have a listen and the.
- 45:47Speaker 8: Prime Minister, mister albaneasy that was from ninety seven and
- 45:51Speaker 8: a half thousand in the house eithernight.
- 45:53Speaker 15: Awesome crowd, great atmosphere and great match and it.
- 45:56Speaker 10: Was the sending straight.
- 45:57Speaker 16: These guys are irresistible at the.
- 45:59Speaker 3: Moment, are they not.
- 46:00Speaker 15: Well, they're just young guys having a crack and playing
- 46:04Speaker 15: incredible football. Yeah, two goals down quite a time, but
- 46:08Speaker 15: they hung in there and we're just awesome.
- 46:10Speaker 8: Amazing the excitement that something like this can generate for
- 46:13Speaker 8: the people.
- 46:14Speaker 3: You can see the people in the rooms.
- 46:15Speaker 15: He had outs. That's great. You can fill the atmosphere
- 46:18Speaker 15: right around the ground too, around the j was.
- 46:20Speaker 3: An awesome night, enjoyed.
- 46:22Speaker 10: Good on you.
- 46:24Speaker 2: So that's one of his four Melbourne teams. Well the
- 46:26Speaker 2: footy great Nathan Brown was out on nine Sunday Footy Show.
- 46:31Speaker 2: Not happy, not impressed, have listened well.
- 46:34Speaker 17: Because I feel like the Prime Minister this was for
- 46:36Speaker 17: the good of himself going into the Hawthorn rooms this
- 46:40Speaker 17: sickens me. Anthony Alban He's had a look at the pole.
- 46:46Speaker 17: Peter Dunton is closing and he's in front. There's a gap.
- 46:49Speaker 17: He feels like I need to look like a common man.
- 46:52Speaker 17: I'm going to go into the Hawthorn rooms give it up,
- 46:54Speaker 17: elbow and no one's buying it.
- 46:57Speaker 2: That's a bit of a whack. Gary, Yeah.
- 47:01Speaker 16: Look and and Nathan Brown's right. I mean it's been
- 47:04Speaker 16: a lean few years to Hawthorne, let's face it, and
- 47:07Speaker 16: they would be taking those who are just jumping on
- 47:09Speaker 16: the bandwagon very very poorly. I'm a member of the
- 47:13Speaker 16: Brisbane Line Supporters Club, Peter, I know where your football
- 47:17Speaker 16: loyalties lie. I'm not going to hide my view and
- 47:21Speaker 16: I cheer them all on in so many different ways.
- 47:23Speaker 16: But seriously, this bloke is a phony and now even
- 47:26Speaker 16: the football crowd no, he's a phony.
- 47:30Speaker 10: Now.
- 47:31Speaker 2: To underline the point for people at home, I barick
- 47:33Speaker 2: for Richmond, have since I was born. My brother played
- 47:36Speaker 2: in the last year of fitz Roy before it became
- 47:38Speaker 2: the Brisbane Bears and then the Brisbane Lines. I didn't
- 47:41Speaker 2: move to Fitzroy. He then played a Hawthorne. I didn't
- 47:44Speaker 2: move to Hawthorne either, it never wore a Hawthorne scaff
- 47:46Speaker 2: This is where the Prime Minister's got himself into a
- 47:48Speaker 2: bit of trouble. Let's go to the housing. We find
- 47:52Speaker 2: out today no new homes have been completed under Labour's
- 47:56Speaker 2: thirty two billion dollar scheme. Less than three billion is
- 47:59Speaker 2: actually been paid out for direct construction. There's a ten
- 48:03Speaker 2: of billion dollar Housing Australia Future Fund. It's also yet
- 48:07Speaker 2: to hand out any money at all for social and
- 48:11Speaker 2: affordable housing. We also learned this target Keith one point
- 48:15Speaker 2: two million homes by twenty thirty. They haven't built a home.
- 48:20Speaker 2: If you're not spending the money, how are they going
- 48:22Speaker 2: to get their target? Mat are they?
- 48:25Speaker 3: Peter?
- 48:26Speaker 14: This is just labor reruns. And I know you remember this.
- 48:28Speaker 14: Remember the say Hip program in the Northern Territory. Hundreds
- 48:32Speaker 14: of millions and nearly everything went on consultants and no
- 48:34Speaker 14: houses were built at all. And this will be no different.
- 48:38Speaker 14: They've already spent thirty million dollars on consultants. Give me
- 48:42Speaker 14: the money, I'll sort it out. I'll get some houses
- 48:44Speaker 14: built faster than you can believe, because there are people out.
- 48:46Speaker 3: There that desperately you need it.
- 48:48Speaker 14: And it just gets tied up in red tape and
- 48:51Speaker 14: admin pass throughs, particularly with the state.
- 48:53Speaker 3: It's ridiculous.
- 48:54Speaker 14: Let the industry get on with what they do best,
- 48:56Speaker 14: and that's build houses.
- 49:00Speaker 2: Queensland, Allen and Gary they're pledging to build a three
- 49:03Speaker 2: tier public register for child six offenders if they win
- 49:07Speaker 2: next month. They're calling this Daniel's Law. This is a
- 49:10Speaker 2: course after Daniel Moore Come David christopherly says. It will
- 49:13Speaker 2: cost about ten million and this is how it'll work.
- 49:17Speaker 2: Offenders who are at large or breach reporting conditions will
- 49:20Speaker 2: be named, will know who they are, Their photos will
- 49:23Speaker 2: be on a website that's tier one. Public will be
- 49:26Speaker 2: able to find out which are the high risk offenders
- 49:28Speaker 2: that are in their local area under tier two, and
- 49:31Speaker 2: then the guardians kids at risk they'll be able to
- 49:34Speaker 2: inquire about specific individuals under tier three. This sounds fantastic.
- 49:41Speaker 2: It's about time. But Gary, why the hell isn't this national?
- 49:47Speaker 16: Well, I think Peter Dublin's Prime Minister will be because
- 49:49Speaker 16: he's already given a commitment very similar to this, and
- 49:52Speaker 16: I know a couple of states have borrowed this idea
- 49:54Speaker 16: and good on them. It's got to be done as
- 49:57Speaker 16: a national thing.
- 49:58Speaker 3: I agree.
- 50:01Speaker 2: Fantastic gentlemen, Thank you both of your time. Enjoy Canberra, Keith,
- 50:05Speaker 2: I'm not there. That's it for me. You see tomorrow
- 50:07Speaker 2: night at six Andrew bolts up next
