- 0:00Speaker 1: Welcome to the Lake to be.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Hello, and welcome to the show. I'm done giddy Georgio tonight,
- 0:15Speaker 2: joined by Kayla Bond and Joe Hill to a brand gentlemen,
- 0:18Speaker 2: good evening, Great to be here, Lovely to be Yeah,
- 0:21Speaker 2: you're yeah, fired up ready?
- 0:23Speaker 1: Thank you for having me, Lovely to be had, Well.
- 0:25Speaker 2: It's good to have you. I feel like you're a
- 0:27Speaker 2: regular these days.
- 0:28Speaker 3: I count.
- 0:29Speaker 1: I know, I don't actually really even have a role here.
- 0:31Speaker 1: I just sort of sleep here because I think you
- 0:33Speaker 1: do between marriages at the moment. Every once in a
- 0:37Speaker 1: while they start rolling the camera.
- 0:38Speaker 4: I heard a vicious rumor, Joe that you like being had.
- 0:41Speaker 1: I do like being had. Yeah, yeah, I've had a
- 0:44Speaker 1: couple of times this morning.
- 0:45Speaker 2: And look, you know what, I don't know where this
- 0:47Speaker 2: conversation is going, so all right, well, look, maybe it's
- 0:51Speaker 2: time for me to introduce what's coming up tonight to spare.
- 0:54Speaker 3: Us all, so stay tuned.
- 0:56Speaker 2: School children in the UK and courage to wear tracksuits
- 0:59Speaker 2: as part of an inclusivity drive.
- 1:02Speaker 3: Whatever happened to having standards? Forget the manisphere?
- 1:05Speaker 2: What about the angry lefty women who hate men marriage
- 1:09Speaker 2: and capitalize We'll get to that shorely, how big of
- 1:14Speaker 2: a risk is this to society? And wait till you
- 1:17Speaker 2: hear how many world wars Democrat Ilanoma Pix there's been
- 1:23Speaker 2: the first to night. Our fertility rate is in decline
- 1:26Speaker 2: as many Aussies choose to have kids later in life
- 1:29Speaker 2: or not at all, and of course due to the
- 1:31Speaker 2: impact of the cost of living crisis. But is there
- 1:34Speaker 2: a poorfect replacement for children. Well, the number of dogs
- 1:39Speaker 2: per household has actually overtaken the number of kids in
- 1:43Speaker 2: some suburbs. And if you want a sense of just
- 1:46Speaker 2: how much things have changed, look no further than Sydney's.
- 1:49Speaker 2: In a West, around fifty thousand dogs are microchipped across
- 1:53Speaker 2: the local government area. That's up from about forty three
- 1:57Speaker 2: thousand in twenty twenty three.
- 1:59Speaker 3: And have a look at these.
- 2:00Speaker 2: Marrickville leads with around four thousand, three hundred, followed closely
- 2:06Speaker 2: by Leichhart.
- 2:07Speaker 3: And bau May.
- 2:08Speaker 1: Hang on, they don't tell you how many kids have
- 2:10Speaker 1: been microchips.
- 2:10Speaker 2: Well, that's that's true. That's actually good point exactly.
- 2:14Speaker 3: Now.
- 2:14Speaker 2: Look, the demand is actually so high that Marrickville daycare
- 2:19Speaker 2: center Kip Happy Stays, has rolled out additional services in fact,
- 2:23Speaker 2: one in a West local spends close to ten thousand
- 2:26Speaker 2: dollars a year on daycare alone to work full time.
- 2:30Speaker 3: At her office job.
- 2:31Speaker 2: The French bulldog owner told nine newspapers, I think more
- 2:35Speaker 2: people would have children if homes weren't ten times their salary,
- 2:39Speaker 2: if childcare were completely free or more heavily subsidized, and
- 2:43Speaker 2: if there was easy, uncapped and free access to specialized
- 2:47Speaker 2: services pre and post birth. Now, look, I have been
- 2:51Speaker 2: a very big advocate for dogs on this paddle, as
- 2:54Speaker 2: you both would.
- 2:54Speaker 3: I'm always.
- 2:58Speaker 1: Just there bar that whole. I'm feek down it.
- 3:01Speaker 2: No, no, but that's the point. Dogs are the best company.
- 3:04Speaker 2: They really are man's best friend. They are there to
- 3:06Speaker 2: comfort you through the good and through the bad. Do
- 3:09Speaker 2: I think they should replace a child? Absolutely not. But
- 3:12Speaker 2: in terms of the cost, I actually agree with what
- 3:15Speaker 2: has been outlined in that article and I had a look.
- 3:18Speaker 3: So owning a.
- 3:18Speaker 2: Dog in oz On average costs about three thousand, two
- 3:22Speaker 2: hundred per year, but if you're setting up the dog,
- 3:24Speaker 2: it's about ten thousand dollars for the initial startup dogs
- 3:27Speaker 2: and food and treats about two thousand dollars per year.
- 3:31Speaker 2: But the cost of veterinary care would be ridiculous. And
- 3:34Speaker 2: of course if the pet doesn't have any insurance and
- 3:36Speaker 2: suddenly the dog needs surgery, good luck to you. But
- 3:40Speaker 2: compare that, Joe.
- 3:42Speaker 1: One a half grand.
- 3:43Speaker 3: Compare that to.
- 3:44Speaker 2: A child on average per year, it's about seventeen thousand
- 3:47Speaker 2: dollars per child over eighteen years.
- 3:50Speaker 3: It's three hundred thousand.
- 3:51Speaker 2: Dollars for the first child and two hundred and thirty
- 3:53Speaker 2: thousand dollars for child.
- 3:54Speaker 3: Number two Joe.
- 3:55Speaker 2: So look, I can understand the argument. Do I think
- 3:58Speaker 2: that dogs should replace kids?
- 4:00Speaker 3: No? But they are man's best friend.
- 4:03Speaker 1: Yeah they are. Look we've got firstly, this is actually
- 4:06Speaker 1: the LGA Local government area that I live in, although
- 4:10Speaker 1: I live in the very last street, So I actually
- 4:13Speaker 1: I live in the Inner West Council in the Outer
- 4:15Speaker 1: Inner West, but the other side of the street and
- 4:18Speaker 1: our closest shops are in fact in another LGA, So
- 4:21Speaker 1: I identify as a resident of Southwest Sydney. Represent anyway, next.
- 4:26Speaker 4: Thing, you'll say, you're a woman.
- 4:30Speaker 1: So we've got three kids and three animals. I've got
- 4:33Speaker 1: to tell you they're quite different.
- 4:35Speaker 3: Okay.
- 4:36Speaker 1: The animals have four legs and fur and can't talk.
- 4:38Speaker 1: And really terrible panelists on this show, whereas the kids
- 4:42Speaker 1: have two legs and won't shut up, and we'll probably
- 4:45Speaker 1: end up having to do television presenting because they don't have.
- 4:48Speaker 4: Any other skills, and the animals whatever you give them to.
- 4:50Speaker 1: This is I think, Okay, I think, yes, Marrickville and
- 4:54Speaker 1: the Inner West is very, very expensive to live in.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Trust me, I know. But if you really want to
- 5:00Speaker 1: have kids, you will find a way to have kids.
- 5:03Speaker 1: You will have kids, you will move. And we know
- 5:04Speaker 1: that people are doing this. Stories have been written in
- 5:06Speaker 1: the Daily Telegraph time and time again about this great
- 5:10Speaker 1: sort of migration from the inner city where Marrickville and
- 5:13Speaker 1: these other suburbs are, to the fringes of the suburbs,
- 5:17Speaker 1: to the regions. Right, So don't pretend that you can't
- 5:21Speaker 1: have kids just because you live in Marrickville. If you
- 5:24Speaker 1: want to have if you're choosing between Marrickville and having kids,
- 5:28Speaker 1: and you choose Marrickville, you don't really want to have kids.
- 5:32Speaker 4: Well, but I think it's not just about the cost
- 5:34Speaker 4: of living. It comes down to the demographics.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Right.
- 5:37Speaker 4: So we're talking about the inner Wist of Sydney, where
- 5:39Speaker 4: I also live. In fact, bal Maine, where I live,
- 5:42Speaker 4: is third on the list of the top dog locations
- 5:45Speaker 4: in the Inner Wist. I do not contribute to that.
- 5:47Speaker 4: I have two cats, so I don't know what the
- 5:50Speaker 4: numbers look like on that front. But they talk about
- 5:54Speaker 4: there's nearly fifty thousand marcroship dogs in the Inner Wist
- 5:56Speaker 4: in the last census, which was twenty twenty one, so
- 5:59Speaker 4: the number is probably higher now, but as a proportion,
- 6:03Speaker 4: I would have thought it would probably have gone backwards
- 6:05Speaker 4: from twenty twenty one. But they had thirty four thousand,
- 6:08Speaker 4: one hundred and twenty seven people in the Inner West
- 6:11Speaker 4: Council area who were between the ages of zero and nineteen,
- 6:15Speaker 4: so even just slightly over the eighteen bracket. But I
- 6:19Speaker 4: think this is quite instructive. In the Inner West, forty
- 6:22Speaker 4: eight and a half percent of people have never been
- 6:25Speaker 4: married compared to thirty five point seven percent across the
- 6:28Speaker 4: rest of New South Wales, and those who have been
- 6:31Speaker 4: married or are married. In the Inner West it's thirty
- 6:33Speaker 4: seven point one percent versus forty seven point three percent
- 6:37Speaker 4: across New Southwest, so it's basically inverted those two numbers.
- 6:41Speaker 4: In the Inner West. You've got a lot of young people, yes,
- 6:44Speaker 4: or not even young, but sort of older young, if
- 6:47Speaker 4: you want to call it that, and they would be
- 6:49Speaker 4: in the millennial category who if their blokes haven't grown
- 6:55Speaker 4: up enough yet to decide that they want to have
- 6:57Speaker 4: kids or have this idea that I don't want to
- 6:59Speaker 4: have kids. And you've got women who also for the
- 7:01Speaker 4: same reason, and it's full lefties in the Inner West.
- 7:03Speaker 4: They've decided that it's bad for the world or the
- 7:06Speaker 4: planet or something if they have children of the climate,
- 7:08Speaker 4: so I'm not going to have kids, or they're girl
- 7:10Speaker 4: bossing so hard that they've convinced themselves that they can
- 7:13Speaker 4: wait until they're fifty seven in order to have a child.
- 7:16Speaker 4: And at some point reality is going to mug you
- 7:18Speaker 4: and you're going to discover that you can't have it all.
- 7:21Speaker 4: I mean, the inn the West is probably a great
- 7:23Speaker 4: microcosm of this kind of person who is not having
- 7:28Speaker 4: kids either because they think they don't want to, and
- 7:31Speaker 4: I suspect most people will later realize they actually did
- 7:35Speaker 4: want to, or they're putting it off. But the reality
- 7:38Speaker 4: is though that they're trying to plug that hole that
- 7:41Speaker 4: doesn't exist with the children with a dog, which would
- 7:45Speaker 4: seem to indicate to me that they do actually want children,
- 7:49Speaker 4: no matter how hard they tell themselves they don't, I
- 7:52Speaker 4: or that they will wait.
- 7:53Speaker 1: To have them.
- 7:54Speaker 3: I don't agree with that at all. I don't agree
- 7:56Speaker 3: with that.
- 7:56Speaker 2: I know so many people who have dogs and they
- 7:59Speaker 2: are genuinely happy saying this is my family, my son
- 8:03Speaker 2: or my daughter is my dog.
- 8:05Speaker 3: I know people who are.
- 8:06Speaker 4: My kids, your age, my age, who would Yes.
- 8:09Speaker 3: Absolutely, I'm not talking old, I'm talking I'm talking around
- 8:12Speaker 3: our age. I'm talking about it.
- 8:14Speaker 2: But so I disagree with that notion where you know,
- 8:17Speaker 2: I do think that people do believe that dogs can
- 8:19Speaker 2: replace a child, and they genuinely believe that, and they
- 8:23Speaker 2: are also very and I agree. I do not think
- 8:26Speaker 2: that dogs can replace children. I don't don't agree with that.
- 8:30Speaker 2: But I do think that there are people out there
- 8:33Speaker 2: who are very, very satisfied with their life with a partner,
- 8:36Speaker 2: a husband, or even solo with the dogs, and that's
- 8:40Speaker 2: the way that they live.
- 8:41Speaker 4: Some people are like that, but I think there are
- 8:42Speaker 4: a lot of people convincing themselves that that's how they
- 8:45Speaker 4: want to be, and they actually don't.
- 8:46Speaker 1: I think there's also a lot of people who just
- 8:47Speaker 1: don't have a choice. I would love that they could. Yes,
- 8:49Speaker 1: haven't been able to do for whatever reason. And and
- 8:52Speaker 1: the dog sort of fills that. Boys, I've got something
- 8:55Speaker 1: something to take care of. And that's also But I
- 8:57Speaker 1: think the point remains is that inn where is not
- 9:00Speaker 1: where you go to have kids because it's fun, because
- 9:05Speaker 1: it's you know, got lots of citing cultural attraction and
- 9:09Speaker 1: nightlife and stuff. In the old days, you go there.
- 9:11Speaker 1: If you're a student in a big sharehouse, you probably
- 9:14Speaker 1: can't afford to even do that anymore. Either way, you know,
- 9:17Speaker 1: if you are going to have kids, you are probably
- 9:19Speaker 1: going to move further out.
- 9:21Speaker 4: Yeah, and you can have some lands. You see some
- 9:24Speaker 4: interesting specimens in the inn weestas as you would will know.
- 9:28Speaker 1: We're not just talking about the animals.
- 9:30Speaker 4: I was at a peters From public house on Saturday,
- 9:33Speaker 4: playing two up with one of our fellow hosts here
- 9:37Speaker 4: at SCAR News. You see some interesting people move through there.
- 9:40Speaker 4: So maybe it's best local identities. Yes, yes, so maybe
- 9:43Speaker 4: it's best that some of them don't have children. But
- 9:45Speaker 4: some of these people who replace the possibility of kids
- 9:48Speaker 4: with dogs, you'll also discover that they treat their dogs
- 9:51Speaker 4: exactly like children. They think they should be absolutely everywhere
- 9:55Speaker 4: at all times. How dare you criticize my dog for misbehaving? No,
- 9:59Speaker 4: my yog can do that. Yes, he can do a
- 10:02Speaker 4: turd on your lawn. How dare you complain about it?
- 10:05Speaker 4: You want me to pick it up off the footpath? No? No,
- 10:07Speaker 4: there is no way my dog was digging a hole
- 10:10Speaker 4: in your garden. Because this is exactly how they would
- 10:13Speaker 4: parent if they had had a child as well. And
- 10:16Speaker 4: I'm sure you have seen this across or many places.
- 10:20Speaker 4: You've been increasingly parents just seemingly unwilling to do anything
- 10:25Speaker 4: about unruly children. There is not the discipline in the
- 10:29Speaker 4: home that there used to be. So how glad was
- 10:31Speaker 4: I to see a bloke called Tom Bennett. Now he
- 10:35Speaker 4: is the UK Department of Education's Ambassador for Attendance and Behavior,
- 10:41Speaker 4: and he spoke to Susie O'Brien at the News Court
- 10:43Speaker 4: Papers and delivered a lovely dose of common sense about
- 10:47Speaker 4: what's going wrong in our schools. Of course, we talk
- 10:50Speaker 4: about why the kids are misbehaving so much in schools
- 10:53Speaker 4: and you know why can't the teachers rain them in?
- 10:56Speaker 4: He says it is the parents. He says some parents
- 10:59Speaker 4: have very boundaries with their own children. They allow them
- 11:02Speaker 4: to be on their iPads and phones all day and
- 11:04Speaker 4: think that that's loving and caring because that's what they
- 11:07Speaker 4: want and it's making my child happy. Teachers are having
- 11:11Speaker 4: to teach a cohort of children who've come from low
- 11:13Speaker 4: boundary environments where, for instance, they think they can do
- 11:17Speaker 4: what they want and that they're the most important person
- 11:20Speaker 4: in the room, and that their feelings are the only
- 11:22Speaker 4: feelings that matter. Those schools need to build structures a
- 11:26Speaker 4: behavior curriculum from the ground up. What he's saying is
- 11:32Speaker 4: you don't get to complain about your kid coming home
- 11:35Speaker 4: not doing well at school if you're not doing your
- 11:39Speaker 4: bit as well. And spot on he is for pointing
- 11:42Speaker 4: this out. I mean, it all started going wrong when
- 11:45Speaker 4: we decided that kids wouldn't have scores in their school
- 11:49Speaker 4: sports and their weekend sports anymore. You know, everyone gets
- 11:53Speaker 4: a participation medal. It's all right, We're only here to
- 11:57Speaker 4: have fun. No one's here to win to win, that's
- 12:01Speaker 4: the whole bloody point. Yeah, we've treated kids. We're molly
- 12:05Speaker 4: coddling kids. We don't let them go on you know,
- 12:08Speaker 4: dangerous play equipment because you know, oh, my god, little
- 12:10Speaker 4: Johnny might fall off and break a bone or have
- 12:12Speaker 4: his arm and a cast. I mean, this is part
- 12:15Speaker 4: of growing up. You learn the boundaries because you make mistakes.
- 12:18Speaker 4: Your parents pull them up, pull you up for it.
- 12:20Speaker 4: You learn the boundaries because you fall off the monkey
- 12:23Speaker 4: bars and you break your arm and you decide you're
- 12:25Speaker 4: not going to do that again. Kids need the discipline
- 12:29Speaker 4: and the consequences, and increasingly it would seem they're not
- 12:32Speaker 4: getting that in the home. So how are we to
- 12:34Speaker 4: expect that teachers and then have any discipline in the
- 12:37Speaker 4: classroom because that the kids aroundruly to begin.
- 12:40Speaker 3: I absolutely agree.
- 12:42Speaker 2: You know, there is nothing worse when you're out in public,
- 12:44Speaker 2: right and you see an absolute brat of a child
- 12:48Speaker 2: acting like a brat, and you've got the parent going, oh,
- 12:52Speaker 2: don't speak to mummy like that, don't speak to daddy
- 12:55Speaker 2: like that, and you just want to literally pick up
- 12:57Speaker 2: the kid yourself and say, yeah, do that again, do
- 12:59Speaker 2: that again, try that again. But it is a gentle
- 13:02Speaker 2: parenting approach. I feel like it's the new age of parenting.
- 13:06Speaker 2: And my concern, and I'll get to the point about
- 13:08Speaker 2: the schools in a minute, but my concern is that
- 13:11Speaker 2: we are wrapping these kids up in cotton wool, and
- 13:14Speaker 2: then this is going to be the next generation that
- 13:16Speaker 2: are going to enter the workforce, one thinking that they
- 13:19Speaker 2: can do whatever the heck they want, that they are
- 13:21Speaker 2: entitled to whatever the heck they want, and two just
- 13:25Speaker 2: being absolutely unlike with no resilience, no resilience whatsoever about them.
- 13:31Speaker 3: And the workforce is hard. Life is hard.
- 13:34Speaker 2: You've got to go through the ups and downs in life.
- 13:37Speaker 2: You'll go through very, very difficult periods. How are these
- 13:40Speaker 2: children ever going to cope when they've been wrapped up
- 13:43Speaker 2: in cotton wool their whole lives. And as for the schools,
- 13:47Speaker 2: I feel so sorry for teachers. No wonder teachers are
- 13:52Speaker 2: leaving the profession in droves having to deal with said children. Now,
- 13:57Speaker 2: obviously teachers can.
- 13:59Speaker 3: Discipline it child. If a child is naughty in the classroom,
- 14:02Speaker 3: they can really time out.
- 14:04Speaker 2: Well, maybe that might be the solution, Joe. They give
- 14:07Speaker 2: them time out, they send them to detention, fantastic. But
- 14:11Speaker 2: the main discipline comes from home. It is about setting
- 14:16Speaker 2: rules and about setting standards to educate the next generation
- 14:21Speaker 2: to be a great adult, to be a moral citizen
- 14:25Speaker 2: for the community. And this gentle soft parenting, Joe, I
- 14:30Speaker 2: just think is an absolute joke.
- 14:32Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's a combination of things. I think
- 14:35Speaker 1: a little combination of things. I think it's a couple
- 14:36Speaker 1: of different things. So I think, to be honest, like
- 14:39Speaker 1: we think not keeping score and kids every soccer game,
- 14:42Speaker 1: every footy game, the kids know the score. It doesn't
- 14:44Speaker 1: matter that it's on the score not But I think
- 14:47Speaker 1: most schools, and it's really good, they try the first
- 14:51Speaker 1: thing they try to do is make sure that the
- 14:52Speaker 1: kids are all respectful, that they're part of the school community,
- 14:56Speaker 1: they're proud of their school, that they look after each other,
- 14:58Speaker 1: they have no tolerance for bad behavior and all that
- 15:01Speaker 1: sort of stuff. And if those kind of moral values,
- 15:05Speaker 1: or if that moral code isn't reflected in the home,
- 15:08Speaker 1: then that just makes it so much work. So I know,
- 15:10Speaker 1: I'm one of my favorite things to do is to
- 15:12Speaker 1: go to all these public schools where they've just turned
- 15:14Speaker 1: them around, and not just in nice little areas or whatever,
- 15:17Speaker 1: but in some of the most challenging like them the
- 15:20Speaker 1: high school servicing the Macquarie Fields area, it's just a
- 15:22Speaker 1: couple of decades ago was the site of all those riots.
- 15:25Speaker 1: A majority of kids I believe are from public housing
- 15:28Speaker 1: and they have done this phenomenal job of turning that
- 15:32Speaker 1: school around and make it a school where they don't
- 15:35Speaker 1: just teach the kids to get by. They teach their
- 15:37Speaker 1: kids to excel and to shoot for the very best.
- 15:40Speaker 1: And they are getting those results, and they get it
- 15:42Speaker 1: through things like making the kids where a blazer entire
- 15:45Speaker 1: so they have pride in their school, you know, again
- 15:48Speaker 1: reporting any graffiti they see. They've got other stuff like
- 15:51Speaker 1: a one step shop. But they told me and again
- 15:54Speaker 1: it sort of breaks your heart. The worst part of
- 15:56Speaker 1: any school year for them is all straight after school
- 16:01Speaker 1: holidays because they know that all the work that they
- 16:04Speaker 1: have done, all the boundaries they have been setting, and
- 16:06Speaker 1: all the moral instructions for a lot of kids, that
- 16:08Speaker 1: has all just disappeared and sort of run down the drain,
- 16:11Speaker 1: and they basically have to start all over in January
- 16:14Speaker 1: or February. And I think that is the most important thing.
- 16:17Speaker 1: It is a combination of one or the other. Of
- 16:20Speaker 1: it is either you know, wanky parents who think that
- 16:23Speaker 1: their little angels are just darlings who can do no
- 16:26Speaker 1: wrong and have a sense of entitlement and think the
- 16:28Speaker 1: school should be providing everything that their child might happen
- 16:31Speaker 1: to it, and they're just a nightmare. They're just terrible.
- 16:35Speaker 1: And there are also I think parents who are just
- 16:37Speaker 1: for whatever reason or another, often through hardship or their
- 16:40Speaker 1: own upbringing, just aren't equipped to instill in their kids
- 16:44Speaker 1: a sense of right and wrong, a sense of justine
- 16:47Speaker 1: and I'm crap as well. God, I'll let my kids
- 16:48Speaker 1: on the iPhones far more than we should and everything,
- 16:51Speaker 1: but I'm always always hammering them. What is the right
- 16:56Speaker 1: thing to do that you never talk back to your teacher,
- 16:58Speaker 1: that you know that you you always think of other people,
- 17:01Speaker 1: not just yourself, cetera. Said all these things that you've
- 17:04Speaker 1: got to just ram home, and you've got to say
- 17:05Speaker 1: it a hundred times to kids before you've even got
- 17:07Speaker 1: a chance of them, you know, actually processing it. So
- 17:10Speaker 1: you can imagine how people who are either working too
- 17:12Speaker 1: hard or not really quite sure what they're doing, or
- 17:15Speaker 1: have other issues in the home, or are just again
- 17:18Speaker 1: stuck up wankers who think that their kids are the
- 17:21Speaker 1: apple of their eye, they are always the worst ones.
- 17:24Speaker 1: And I've seen it with my own eyes. I've had
- 17:26Speaker 1: someone I know when their kid I think was very
- 17:30Speaker 1: I won't say who it was, obviously, but their kid
- 17:33Speaker 1: took a toy that another kid was playing off it
- 17:36Speaker 1: with and grabbed it off him. And I started pointing
- 17:39Speaker 1: that out and that the parents said, oh, well it's
- 17:42Speaker 1: his anyway, so I should you just able to take it.
- 17:44Speaker 1: And I thought, that's it, that's it for life.
- 17:47Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 17:47Speaker 2: I mean the thing is, though, when you spoke about
- 17:48Speaker 2: your own kids their drama, in the end, you're setting standards,
- 17:51Speaker 2: and I think that that's.
- 17:52Speaker 3: A bit of you're leading by example.
- 17:54Speaker 2: I mean, look, it's all about setting standards, isn't it really.
- 17:57Speaker 2: But there's a shame, it is a real shame that
- 18:00Speaker 2: there are standards going down the drain because over in
- 18:04Speaker 2: the UK there is a push for school children to
- 18:07Speaker 2: wear tracksuits to school as part of a quote inclusivity drive.
- 18:13Speaker 2: And you cannot make this stuff up serious so that
- 18:15Speaker 2: this is incredible. The push is coming from a Commons Culture,
- 18:19Speaker 2: Media and Sport Committee report which told schools to adopt
- 18:22Speaker 2: a sportswear friendly uniform policy. And I just want to
- 18:26Speaker 2: make the point that the chair of this committee is
- 18:29Speaker 2: actually a conservative MP. It sounds like an absolute wet
- 18:33Speaker 2: Tory Tory. It's a woman actually now, the Cross party
- 18:36Speaker 2: group argue that such changes would make uniforms more inclusive
- 18:40Speaker 2: and remove obstacles to physical activity.
- 18:42Speaker 3: The report suggested.
- 18:44Speaker 2: Current pe kit requirements create engagement problems for pupils. Now
- 18:49Speaker 2: here's an act an extract from that. It says, we
- 18:52Speaker 2: recommend that the government issue guidance making clear that schools
- 18:55Speaker 2: are expected to adopt pe kit and uniform policies that
- 18:59Speaker 2: prioritize comfort, inclusivity and dignity, particularly for girls and pupils
- 19:05Speaker 2: with protected characteristics. Sorry, one on earth is that do
- 19:10Speaker 2: we want kids to be a bunch of absolute slobs?
- 19:13Speaker 3: Seriously?
- 19:14Speaker 2: Now, I was thinking back actually when I read this.
- 19:18Speaker 2: When I was at school, we used to have to
- 19:20Speaker 2: change into our tracksuits when we did sport.
- 19:22Speaker 3: But it was so strict that even.
- 19:24Speaker 2: If you had sport as your last period of the day,
- 19:28Speaker 2: we were required to change out of that tracksuit, put
- 19:31Speaker 2: our blazers, skirts or our ties.
- 19:34Speaker 3: And shirts on to leave the school.
- 19:36Speaker 2: And we weren't allowed to be seen at shopping centers
- 19:38Speaker 2: either in our tracksuit.
- 19:40Speaker 3: That's how serious the policy was.
- 19:42Speaker 2: Now they're claiming here that you know this is part
- 19:44Speaker 2: of an inclusivity drive. Well, arn't school uniforms inclusive because
- 19:49Speaker 2: it makes everybody equal.
- 19:50Speaker 3: Everybody's wearing the same thing. You are not being.
- 19:53Speaker 2: Judged on what you wear, how you wear, your sense
- 19:56Speaker 2: of style. And I mean, this is just ridiculous in
- 19:59Speaker 2: my to say, oh, well, girls need to be more
- 20:02Speaker 2: comfortable in a tracksuit.
- 20:04Speaker 3: Well yeah, if they're playing sport.
- 20:05Speaker 2: I would say, kayleb that they would be comfortable in
- 20:07Speaker 2: a tracksuit. But I mean, if you wear a skirt
- 20:10Speaker 2: or a dress that is just part of the school uniform.
- 20:13Speaker 2: That is about again taking responsibility.
- 20:15Speaker 4: And again it goes back to the discipline thing. It's
- 20:18Speaker 4: saying you're part of something greater than you when you're
- 20:20Speaker 4: representing something in the world and you know the clothes
- 20:24Speaker 4: you I know, some people don't like this anymore and
- 20:26Speaker 4: they don't believe it's true, or they're trying to make
- 20:29Speaker 4: it not true, even though it always has been and
- 20:31Speaker 4: it always will be. Not Aboriginal Land. Now, it's the
- 20:36Speaker 4: way you dress sends a message about you, and it
- 20:40Speaker 4: sends a message about the respect for the people around you.
- 20:43Speaker 4: It says something about what you're representing. A school wants
- 20:47Speaker 4: you to dress well because you are a representative of
- 20:51Speaker 4: the school. I don't see what the issue is with that.
- 20:54Speaker 4: I did think this was interesting. This report is from
- 20:56Speaker 4: gb News and they wrote in it Inclusive Sports Swear,
- 21:01Speaker 4: which is an organization that we started. In this report
- 21:03Speaker 4: from the House of Commons describe girls pea kits as
- 21:07Speaker 4: quote mandatory, over sexualized uniforms that offered a quote lack
- 21:13Speaker 4: of choice and comfort. Now my first comment is where
- 21:16Speaker 4: were these school sports uniforms when I was at school.
- 21:20Speaker 4: I don't remember they over sexualized uniforms. Maybe I should
- 21:24Speaker 4: have gone to school in the UK. But my second
- 21:26Speaker 4: point is this, they say, a lack of choice and comfort.
- 21:30Speaker 4: This is what's wrong with the world now. We've decided
- 21:33Speaker 4: that choice and comfort are the most important things above
- 21:37Speaker 4: all else. This is why people people now want to
- 21:39Speaker 4: be able to go to the office in their bloody
- 21:41Speaker 4: active war and their tracking ACKs and whatever. And you know,
- 21:45Speaker 4: how dare you say that I should wear a suit
- 21:47Speaker 4: and tie to the office. You know, people get on
- 21:49Speaker 4: planes now looking like they've just rolled out of bed.
- 21:51Speaker 4: They don't dress up to get on a plane anymore,
- 21:53Speaker 4: because we've decided that comfort is more important than anything else.
- 22:00Speaker 3: On a plane. I don't think anything wrong with that.
- 22:02Speaker 4: I'm not on board with that.
- 22:03Speaker 1: Are you wear a full suit and tie plane?
- 22:05Speaker 4: No? But I will wear trousers. Are the very least gene.
- 22:09Speaker 2: You'll wear this?
- 22:12Speaker 3: You would sit there like this and in the middle of.
- 22:16Speaker 1: I wear trousers, planes.
- 22:18Speaker 3: My matching socks.
- 22:19Speaker 2: You would be the absolute just fanciful thing of the plane.
- 22:22Speaker 4: Wouldn't you just make an effort? People? And that's what
- 22:25Speaker 4: we're you know, no one wants to make an effort anymore.
- 22:27Speaker 4: It's all about comfort. And what was the other one?
- 22:30Speaker 3: Choice?
- 22:31Speaker 1: Choice?
- 22:31Speaker 4: Well, you don't get choice because you're a school student,
- 22:34Speaker 4: for heaven's sake. And if you're a little bit uncomfortable
- 22:37Speaker 4: in your blazer all day, I couldn't give a toss.
- 22:39Speaker 1: What if you're wearing something so cool, you can say
- 22:41Speaker 1: it's choice, abro You know, I think it's all about
- 22:45Speaker 1: And again, this is something really serious. Not to hit
- 22:47Speaker 1: it with the boring stick. But again, the first thing
- 22:50Speaker 1: that these principles do when they see school struggling and
- 22:52Speaker 1: they turn it around, is that they make sure all
- 22:55Speaker 1: the kids are wearing the school uniform. They're wearing it properly,
- 22:58Speaker 1: and there's zero landitry and it sounds and it sounds
- 23:03Speaker 1: sort of superficial, but it's actually not, because it's like
- 23:06Speaker 1: the broken window theory. Once you start paying attention to
- 23:08Speaker 1: that and say, all right, I'm proud of my school,
- 23:10Speaker 1: and I'm proud of the way I represent my school,
- 23:12Speaker 1: and that's reflected in the way that I wear my uniform,
- 23:15Speaker 1: then it will be reflected in the way that you
- 23:17Speaker 1: work and that you do your homework and that you
- 23:20Speaker 1: try in class, and that you go and you know,
- 23:22Speaker 1: do your sport thing, which obviously I always excelled in
- 23:25Speaker 1: tracksuit pants or night although I preferred to wear a
- 23:27Speaker 1: little pleated miniskirt.
- 23:29Speaker 3: Yeah, there you go. I would have loved to say that.
- 23:31Speaker 4: My catory and over sexualized.
- 23:33Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 23:34Speaker 1: Now let's get to ISIS brides. Now, I think whatever
- 23:38Speaker 1: your position on ISIS brides, it's fair to say you
- 23:41Speaker 1: don't awfully often see them in over sexualized active wear.
- 23:45Speaker 1: I think here we can all agree on that.
- 23:47Speaker 3: That's a very good point.
- 23:49Speaker 1: Great, but anyway, two women who are linked to ISIS
- 23:52Speaker 1: part of this cohort I believe, are expected to be
- 23:54Speaker 1: arrested when they returned to Australia. According to new information
- 23:58Speaker 1: obtained by Sky News and Liberal senator James Patterson on
- 24:03Speaker 1: the program earlier this evening has accused the Albanesi government
- 24:07Speaker 1: of gas lighting over the return of the brides. Let's
- 24:12Speaker 1: have a listen to him on Shari earlier this evening.
- 24:15Speaker 5: The contrary to the rhetoric of some of the supporters
- 24:17Speaker 5: of this and sometimes the government, these people do represent
- 24:20Speaker 5: a possible security risk to Australia because they may have
- 24:23Speaker 5: committed offenses while they're overseas sufficient that they should be
- 24:26Speaker 5: charged when they arrive home. But it also means they
- 24:29Speaker 5: are probably eligible for the threshold for a temporary exclusion order,
- 24:33Speaker 5: which is a power that the government has to keep
- 24:35Speaker 5: people offshore not indefinitely, but for up to two years
- 24:38Speaker 5: if they are likely to have committed a terrorism offense.
- 24:41Speaker 5: So the government has only applied for one temporary exclusion
- 24:45Speaker 5: order for this cohort. We don't know if it's one
- 24:47Speaker 5: of these two people, but at the very least there's
- 24:49Speaker 5: at least one other person. They probably could apply for
- 24:52Speaker 5: that along with denying these people passports because they've effectively
- 24:57Speaker 5: repudiated their loyalty to Australia and they presented a secure
- 25:00Speaker 5: risk to our country.
- 25:02Speaker 1: So we know and again this is breaking tonight in
- 25:04Speaker 1: another great scoop by Shari. But we know that one
- 25:07Speaker 1: of the cohort, if it is indeed the same cohort
- 25:09Speaker 1: that was under the protection of the Kurds nonetheless in Syria,
- 25:14Speaker 1: who previously the Syrian authorities wouldn't let go out of
- 25:17Speaker 1: the Kurdishly run detention camp, please try to keep up
- 25:20Speaker 1: here a refugee camp. We know that one of those
- 25:23Speaker 1: was already refused a passport back to Australia because she
- 25:29Speaker 1: did not clear the necessary security checks. And now Shari
- 25:33Speaker 1: is saying that two who obviously because they're going to
- 25:35Speaker 1: arrive here have been given passports, will be arrested when
- 25:41Speaker 1: they arrive. Controversial, hot take here. Doesn't this mean the
- 25:45Speaker 1: system works and that the security agencies are actually on
- 25:49Speaker 1: this and they know who the threats are and they're
- 25:51Speaker 1: going to arrest the ones they consider a risk as
- 25:55Speaker 1: soon as they.
- 25:56Speaker 4: Well it look at foot on as if they are
- 25:58Speaker 4: coming back. Yes, they ought to be arrested, but why
- 26:02Speaker 4: have we not taken every possible measure to try and
- 26:05Speaker 4: prevent them coming here in the first place. You know,
- 26:08Speaker 4: I understand this business about they are citizens and so
- 26:12Speaker 4: therefore they have a right of return. But obviously the
- 26:17Speaker 4: Home Affairs Department has at some point of immigration has
- 26:20Speaker 4: given them a passport, which you know, maybe we could
- 26:23Speaker 4: have delayed that or found ways around that. Surely we
- 26:26Speaker 4: should have explored every possible avenue to stop them ever
- 26:29Speaker 4: getting back here in the first place, because you know,
- 26:33Speaker 4: once we arrest them and lock them up, then we've
- 26:35Speaker 4: got to pay for the business through the courts, and
- 26:38Speaker 4: then if they get locked up, we'll have to pay
- 26:40Speaker 4: for them to stay in prison and whatever. Why can't
- 26:43Speaker 4: we just leave them on the other side of the world.
- 26:45Speaker 1: I think that is you've already sort of nailed it.
- 26:47Speaker 1: I think the fact is, if they are Australian citizens,
- 26:51Speaker 1: they are entitled to an Australian passport, and if they
- 26:54Speaker 1: can get to a consulate or an Australian embassy official
- 27:00Speaker 1: themselves or through an intermediary and request that passport, there
- 27:04Speaker 1: is no legal basis for the government to refuse it,
- 27:07Speaker 1: and so to stop them.
- 27:10Speaker 2: The thing is is that we have been down talking
- 27:12Speaker 2: about isis Bride violate the compt But we've been talking
- 27:15Speaker 2: about isis bries now since February? Right, This has now
- 27:18Speaker 2: been going on since February, So this can't come as
- 27:21Speaker 2: any shock that you know, here come the brides. None
- 27:24Speaker 2: of us are shocked. The Passport Act is clear, it
- 27:27Speaker 2: can be denied if someone might prejudice the security of Australia. Now,
- 27:31Speaker 2: I would argue that these women do meet that threshold.
- 27:34Speaker 2: So between February to now, why haven't Why hasn't there
- 27:38Speaker 2: been any organization made to say, you know what, in
- 27:40Speaker 2: the event that these women do want to return to Australia,
- 27:42Speaker 2: they do not meet the threshold for this country. You
- 27:44Speaker 2: can't just leave. We say this all the time. They
- 27:46Speaker 2: can't just leave this country for the g Hardy romance
- 27:49Speaker 2: when ISIS is a listed terrorist organization and expect to
- 27:52Speaker 2: be welcomed back here with open arms. Secondly, as for
- 27:55Speaker 2: their children, I don't think the children should be allowed
- 27:57Speaker 2: back either. I just it's not their fault that they
- 28:00Speaker 2: were born into this situation.
- 28:03Speaker 3: It's not their fault.
- 28:04Speaker 2: But we don't know what these children have seen. We
- 28:07Speaker 2: don't know what horrors they have witnessed. I mean, remember
- 28:09Speaker 2: it was his name, Kaleg Sharoof. He was a former
- 28:12Speaker 2: ISIS fighter. Remember he held that the son held up
- 28:15Speaker 2: that seven head. We just cannot have this and it's
- 28:19Speaker 2: okay for Labor to say, oh, no, we're one step
- 28:21Speaker 2: removed from this situation.
- 28:23Speaker 3: No you are not.
- 28:24Speaker 2: You are not one step away from this situation. You
- 28:27Speaker 2: are fully involved in it. As the Government of Australia.
- 28:31Speaker 2: You have decisions that you could have made. But again
- 28:34Speaker 2: we're still talking about it and nothing has changed.
- 28:37Speaker 4: And you know, if the problem is a constitutional one,
- 28:39Speaker 4: which is obviously in terms of citizenship, if you took
- 28:44Speaker 4: it to a referendum, which is of course the method
- 28:46Speaker 4: by which you've changed the constitution and said we'll in
- 28:49Speaker 4: cutoclause or change something that says that, you know, if
- 28:52Speaker 4: you go overseas and join a terrorist organization, you lose
- 28:55Speaker 4: your citizenship. I suspect ninety nine point nine percent of
- 28:58Speaker 4: the country apart from some parts of Western Sydney, would
- 29:01Speaker 4: vote for it.
- 29:02Speaker 1: So it's an interesting one. I don't know where it
- 29:04Speaker 1: would do it. I don't know where it would sit
- 29:06Speaker 1: in the concerts, because of course the citizenship stuff came
- 29:08Speaker 1: much much later before that were all in subjects and
- 29:11Speaker 1: so that's why all those MPs got accidentally caught up
- 29:14Speaker 1: with dual citizenship. But certainly I.
- 29:16Speaker 4: Think I think the twenty sixth of January nineteen forty eight,
- 29:19Speaker 4: we became something that.
- 29:20Speaker 1: Yeah, and so there's all these you know, But again
- 29:24Speaker 1: my understanding, and I think the High Court might have
- 29:27Speaker 1: been involved in this. I'm honestly just going from memory,
- 29:31Speaker 1: but that is my understanding. The government feels it has
- 29:34Speaker 1: no legal basis. And again you're right, there is a
- 29:36Speaker 1: provision to deny someone a passport, but I think only
- 29:39Speaker 1: for two years, and that is what happened to that
- 29:41Speaker 1: one case. So it's interesting to know why there would
- 29:44Speaker 1: be enough grounds to deny one person the passport and
- 29:48Speaker 1: enough grounds to arrest another two when they arrive, but
- 29:51Speaker 1: not to deny them the passport in the first place.
- 29:53Speaker 1: So that's a bit strange. I don't know how that works,
- 29:55Speaker 1: but I think that is the problem. If someone is
- 29:57Speaker 1: a citizen of this country, they are not. And the
- 30:01Speaker 1: other thing is they're not a citizen of anywhere else.
- 30:02Speaker 1: So you can't render someone stateless. If they've got a
- 30:05Speaker 1: dual citizenship, you can cancel and say all right, you've
- 30:07Speaker 1: got to go and use your Syrian or Lebanese or
- 30:09Speaker 1: whatever it is citizenship. You're not can't be here anymore.
- 30:12Speaker 1: But if it's just Australia, or stateless. I don't think
- 30:16Speaker 1: there's any legal basis on which the government can do it.
- 30:19Speaker 3: Well, I mean we're talking about again the Passport Act.
- 30:23Speaker 3: There's a provision there. I just don't think.
- 30:25Speaker 2: I just can't believe that this hasn't been discussed prior
- 30:29Speaker 2: to hear come the brides. All right, well let's talk
- 30:32Speaker 2: about the Manisphere. Now, the manisphere you may have seen
- 30:35Speaker 2: the documentary are talking about, you know, the likes of
- 30:38Speaker 2: Andrew Tate, these dreadful, dreadful.
- 30:41Speaker 3: Type of men.
- 30:42Speaker 2: But you know what we don't talk about enough the
- 30:44Speaker 2: lefty angry women.
- 30:47Speaker 3: That's it.
- 30:48Speaker 2: Women who hate men, they hate marriage, and they hate capitalism.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Now Here in the UK Telegraph a woman by the
- 30:54Speaker 2: name of Ron Pelly. She's penned quite an interesting argument
- 30:57Speaker 2: arguing that the likes of say, the Greats of the
- 31:00Speaker 2: world or the Alexandria or Cazio Cortezes are actually the
- 31:04Speaker 2: biggest risk to society. She says, as the mother of sons,
- 31:08Speaker 2: I wish we didn't spend quite so much time knocking
- 31:11Speaker 2: young men. And to be honest, I actually have to
- 31:14Speaker 2: agree to her agree with her. In fact, our latest
- 31:17Speaker 2: polling suggests that she's actually correct that we talk way
- 31:21Speaker 2: too much about young men and how terrible men are
- 31:24Speaker 2: in general, but we don't talk enough about the angry
- 31:28Speaker 2: women who hate on men all all time.
- 31:30Speaker 3: It says, young women.
- 31:31Speaker 2: Age between eighteen and thirty are by far the most
- 31:34Speaker 2: progressive demographic in the UK. The polling found that young
- 31:39Speaker 2: women are twenty six percentage points less likely to feel
- 31:42Speaker 2: positively about capitalism than young men, and much less likely
- 31:45Speaker 2: to feel the economy works in their favor. They are
- 31:48Speaker 2: also much more pessimistic about the future, their own and
- 31:50Speaker 2: everyone else's. They also feel much more negatively towards young
- 31:54Speaker 2: men than young men feel about them. You know, I
- 31:57Speaker 2: feel like men don't have a hope in hell right
- 32:00Speaker 2: now around the world.
- 32:02Speaker 3: I'm curious to get.
- 32:03Speaker 2: Your thoughts on this, but I mean, look, to be honest,
- 32:06Speaker 2: I have there are I have some friends who do
- 32:08Speaker 2: genuinely hate men. They just are very wary of men
- 32:12Speaker 2: for whatever reasons. I think that society plays a big part.
- 32:16Speaker 2: I think that social media.
- 32:18Speaker 3: Because they were sorry I told you to leave my wife.
- 32:20Speaker 2: That social I think social media plays a big part.
- 32:24Speaker 2: You hear a lot of song lyrics. Listen to Sabrina
- 32:26Speaker 2: Carpenter's lyrics is very very favorite, one of my favorite goals.
- 32:30Speaker 3: But it's it's it is true.
- 32:31Speaker 2: I do actually think it is a problem because there
- 32:34Speaker 2: are some bloody great men out there, aka the ones
- 32:37Speaker 2: I'm sitting next to on this very panel tonight, and
- 32:40Speaker 2: I just don't think that all men should be logged
- 32:42Speaker 2: into this category that they're just horrible to women.
- 32:45Speaker 3: It's just it's not the case.
- 32:47Speaker 2: But there is a generation of young women who feel
- 32:50Speaker 2: very angrily towards men.
- 32:52Speaker 4: Well, I mean that's the problem. They haven't been out
- 32:55Speaker 4: with me. I mean, you know, they would discover how
- 32:57Speaker 4: great men are using this as a day they were
- 33:00Speaker 4: single and ready to mingle. But you're right though, the idea,
- 33:05Speaker 4: I mean's obvious how this has happened to some degree,
- 33:07Speaker 4: and it goes back to what I was saying earlier
- 33:09Speaker 4: about you know, they've been girl bossing so hard that
- 33:11Speaker 4: they realize when they turn fifty that they can't have
- 33:13Speaker 4: kids anymore. And we've kind of sold this idea to
- 33:17Speaker 4: women that equality is not enough, which is, you know,
- 33:21Speaker 4: you can do what you want to do and you
- 33:23Speaker 4: shouldn't be held back because of your gender, which is
- 33:25Speaker 4: one hundred percent right. It then went a step further
- 33:29Speaker 4: and became, well, you should basically be exactly the same
- 33:32Speaker 4: as men. And I think what women are realizing without
- 33:36Speaker 4: actually realizing what the cause of it is, is that
- 33:39Speaker 4: they're not winning out of that. They're not doing well.
- 33:42Speaker 4: They're not happy with the state of the world because
- 33:45Speaker 4: they've been told what their place in the world is
- 33:48Speaker 4: and it's not actually what they want to do. Now
- 33:50Speaker 4: they're rebelling and going even further to the left in
- 33:53Speaker 4: an effort to try and fix that, but it ain't working.
- 33:57Speaker 4: I mean, the New Statesman describes them as the angry
- 34:00Speaker 4: young women. They had this article recently, Meet the angry
- 34:03Speaker 4: young women across Britain. A radical new feminism is rising,
- 34:08Speaker 4: was the headline over there before take it away. I mean,
- 34:26Speaker 4: it's not quite the same angry young woman. I'm not
- 34:29Speaker 4: sure it works, but you know, maybe that's going to
- 34:30Speaker 4: be Billy Joel's next new hit. But it is. It
- 34:32Speaker 4: is true. It used to be the archetype of the
- 34:34Speaker 4: angry young man. Now it's the angry young woman, the
- 34:37Speaker 4: greater turks of them.
- 34:38Speaker 1: This is the thing. Like the New Statesman is obviously
- 34:40Speaker 1: a very trendy progressive magazine. So it's obviously not the
- 34:44Speaker 1: author who's saying that it's angry lefty women we need
- 34:47Speaker 1: to worry about. The New Statesman is obviously saying, you know,
- 34:50Speaker 1: when it says meet the angry young women across Britain,
- 34:53Speaker 1: a radical new feminine rising, they're obviously saying that like
- 34:56Speaker 1: it's a good thing. I think it is. Actually, again,
- 35:01Speaker 1: it is one of those things where the radical left
- 35:05Speaker 1: is fueling the populist right or the radical right, whatever
- 35:08Speaker 1: you want to call it, is too stupid to know
- 35:10Speaker 1: that it's doing it, and then in turn being fueled
- 35:13Speaker 1: and triggered by that and becoming more and more radical,
- 35:16Speaker 1: which then so you've got this vicious cycle. So you've
- 35:18Speaker 1: got women who say, you know, all men are terrible
- 35:22Speaker 1: and rapists or potential abuses and masculinities toxic or whatever
- 35:28Speaker 1: whatever whatever, and then that drives young men and again
- 35:31Speaker 1: you'd only have to talk to them. They're so confused
- 35:34Speaker 1: because I think, but that's not me. I'm not like
- 35:35Speaker 1: that or that, Or you have some of the more
- 35:38Speaker 1: crazy kind of trans stuff where you know, men are
- 35:41Speaker 1: insisted on saying that you know, blah blah blah. And again,
- 35:44Speaker 1: boys who were just sort of discovering their own sexuality. Go, no,
- 35:48Speaker 1: that's stupid, that doesn't make any sense. And so they
- 35:51Speaker 1: are going over to people like Joe Rogan, who I
- 35:55Speaker 1: don't count as a particularly toxic member of the manisphere.
- 35:58Speaker 1: But again, from there you might go to Andrew and
- 36:00Speaker 1: people who are really really genuinely nasty and horrible and
- 36:04Speaker 1: do terrible, terrible things. And then of course all the
- 36:07Speaker 1: radical lefty women who drove the boys into their arms. See,
- 36:12Speaker 1: we told you they were on toxic.
- 36:14Speaker 3: It's a me too movement.
- 36:15Speaker 2: There's a metom movement honestly has absolutely killed it.
- 36:18Speaker 3: I think killed.
- 36:18Speaker 2: I think we're going to give men a break, that's
- 36:20Speaker 2: what that's what I tooize.
- 36:21Speaker 3: A lot of good has bloody good. Lot of men
- 36:24Speaker 3: now in need a YouTube movie. We need it, I
- 36:27Speaker 3: absolutely agree. Oh gosh, stay with us.
- 36:29Speaker 2: Coming up after break, we'll take a look at the
- 36:31Speaker 2: day's front pages. For the very first time, Chinese evs
- 36:35Speaker 2: are being made available at the taxpayer expense to federal MPs.
- 36:39Speaker 2: But what about the spy fears? That's next.
- 36:49Speaker 3: Welcome back.
- 36:49Speaker 2: Let's take a look at tomorrow's front pages, starting with
- 36:52Speaker 2: The Australian. The headline up there, Chinese spy fears tossed
- 36:56Speaker 2: in the Bootmore EV choices for MPs. Chinese electric vehicles
- 36:59Speaker 2: have been added for the first time to the list
- 37:01Speaker 2: of taxpayer funded cars available to federal MPs for their
- 37:05Speaker 2: private use, despite as warnings over security issues and a
- 37:09Speaker 2: looming US ban. Six bid standing for b I D
- 37:13Speaker 2: Build Your Dreams models and a Chinese made MG were
- 37:16Speaker 2: added to the list of options for MP's private plate
- 37:18Speaker 2: vehicles from April one, including the top selling SILLI A
- 37:22Speaker 2: suv and the Shark plug in. Sorry, look the defense
- 37:32Speaker 2: the Australian is very small writing and I wear contact for.
- 37:37Speaker 4: You.
- 37:39Speaker 3: Look that the mockery, the mockery. Look, let's talk about.
- 37:43Speaker 1: This is toxic masculinity. This is radical left.
- 37:47Speaker 2: I am the new Greater Thumberg. Now okay, how dare.
- 37:51Speaker 4: You called Don Ferrill driving his Sharon?
- 37:59Speaker 3: All right?
- 37:59Speaker 2: See, I take back everything that I said earlier that
- 38:02Speaker 2: we've got to give men a p I.
- 38:03Speaker 1: Go, okay, all right, Look, I'm just going to make
- 38:09Speaker 1: it easy.
- 38:10Speaker 3: I am. I'm Joe.
- 38:13Speaker 2: I'm going to try and make a comment on this
- 38:15Speaker 2: because I'm being absolutely you know, attacked here. This is
- 38:19Speaker 2: a real worry. This this is certainly a concern. I mean,
- 38:22Speaker 2: of course Chris Bowen wants I saw. I can't take
- 38:24Speaker 2: you seriously when you're doing that to the side of me.
- 38:26Speaker 3: Please just casually, I can't. I just.
- 38:31Speaker 4: This is not working, is blind.
- 38:33Speaker 2: I'm trying my best to talk about Chinese evs and
- 38:36Speaker 2: you two are playing funny buggers, right. I mean, you've
- 38:38Speaker 2: got Chris Bowen out there wanting to give everyone needs
- 38:41Speaker 2: an EV and now we've got these taxpayer funded EV's.
- 38:45Speaker 2: For goodness sake. We don't know the risks, we don't
- 38:48Speaker 2: know anything about them, but don't worry, they're all funded
- 38:51Speaker 2: by the taxpayer.
- 38:52Speaker 4: I can't understand it. It wasn't all that long ago.
- 38:55Speaker 4: Only a couple of months ago, wasn't it. We were
- 38:57Speaker 4: talking about the the U tongue or you long, but
- 39:00Speaker 4: no U tong you long as a horse.
- 39:03Speaker 3: The ung But you're getting it right?
- 39:04Speaker 4: Yeah, no, at least I corrected myself immediately.
- 39:07Speaker 3: And I've corrected myself.
- 39:09Speaker 4: And there's something in here about a toy toyr Tar
- 39:13Speaker 4: predo as well. But the utoon buses out of China
- 39:18Speaker 4: that they've now in the UK and some of the
- 39:21Speaker 4: Scandinavian countries. They've investigated them and found out that, you know,
- 39:25Speaker 4: because they hook up to the mainframe back in China,
- 39:29Speaker 4: and that G can sort of wander in one day
- 39:31Speaker 4: and say disabled the buses. So we know this technology exists.
- 39:35Speaker 4: Why the hell are we allowing MPs to have it?
- 39:38Speaker 4: Like there's lots of other cars you can get, Just
- 39:41Speaker 4: get another car.
- 39:43Speaker 2: And it also says it even says in the article
- 39:45Speaker 2: so I can read it. But Mike Burgess said last
- 39:49Speaker 2: year that there was concerns about Internet connected vehicles.
- 39:52Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, Yeah, plenty of people have raised and
- 39:55Speaker 4: it just it makes no sense at all. Maybe G
- 39:57Speaker 4: told the Prime Minisy, you would know, Joe's g all
- 40:00Speaker 4: the Prime Minister to do this so you can have
- 40:02Speaker 4: extra access to.
- 40:03Speaker 1: All I know is that there is no way on
- 40:05Speaker 1: God's green Earth that the Chinese are going to be
- 40:07Speaker 1: able to hack the falcon.
- 40:09Speaker 4: Yeah. Only the German cockroaches.
- 40:12Speaker 1: Yeah, German cockroaches. They are all over it, and they're
- 40:15Speaker 1: possibly reporting back to Vladimir Putin. But apart from that anyway,
- 40:19Speaker 1: let's go to Marty Daily Telegraph here, and this is
- 40:21Speaker 1: an absolute cracker of a yarn from a very good
- 40:23Speaker 1: friend of yours and mine, Kayla Susan Giuliani, gun reporter
- 40:28Speaker 1: who's just come over to the telly from the bleak
- 40:31Speaker 1: City of Melbourne campus rant calls for interfarda and glory
- 40:34Speaker 1: to our martyrs. Degrees of evil, get it because that's
- 40:38Speaker 1: like degrees University Degrees of Evil Exclusive by Susan Juliani.
- 40:43Speaker 1: An article calling for a global interfada and quote unquote
- 40:47Speaker 1: glory to all our martyrs has been labeled appalling by
- 40:50Speaker 1: Jewish students after it appeared where else in the University
- 40:54Speaker 1: of Sydney student publication. I remember when it used to
- 40:57Speaker 1: be funny. If it's honey SWA, which I think it is. Yeah,
- 41:01Speaker 1: The Daily Telegraph can reveal an article by Selene Zau
- 41:06Speaker 1: published in any SWA on April twenty two, titled quote
- 41:09Speaker 1: Who's afraid of Hesbela Huthi's hummas Islamic jihad i am
- 41:14Speaker 1: has been referred to university regulator, the Tertiary Education Quality
- 41:18Speaker 1: and Standards Agency. The article, which has since been taken
- 41:20Speaker 1: down by the publication we think, declared the resistance deserves
- 41:24Speaker 1: our unconditional support until victory and glory to all our
- 41:27Speaker 1: martyrs From Gadigill to Gaza will have an into Fada.
- 41:31Speaker 1: It also stated we are a branch of the Revolutionary Front.
- 41:34Speaker 1: This is so Monty Python's for Brian, but Ani swat
- 41:39Speaker 1: used to be really funny and was actually one of
- 41:43Speaker 1: the inspirations for me when I was editing the Melbourne
- 41:45Speaker 1: UNI Student magazine at the same time, because it was
- 41:49Speaker 1: edited by the Chaser boys. Ah, that is how they
- 41:53Speaker 1: got their start. Yeah, that is how they made their note.
- 41:55Speaker 1: And I saw them and I went, oh my god,
- 41:56Speaker 1: these guys are hilarious, totally irreverent. I remember they had
- 42:00Speaker 1: one one giant. They used to have a debate kind of
- 42:04Speaker 1: head to head sort of section on the back page
- 42:07Speaker 1: and the title was old People, landfill or part of society.
- 42:13Speaker 3: Wow.
- 42:14Speaker 1: Wow.
- 42:17Speaker 2: It just point out the last line that says missus
- 42:19Speaker 2: Zoo also claims in her article the Isis Brides had
- 42:22Speaker 2: simply visited their families in Syria. Are just a little
- 42:25Speaker 2: casual soiree overseas with the band.
- 42:29Speaker 1: Because that's not what even the Isis Brides themselves said.
- 42:34Speaker 4: That's what really annoys me about this too, apart from
- 42:37Speaker 4: the fact that it's just repugnant stuff, is that once
- 42:40Speaker 4: upon a time, student newspapers pushed the boundaries of like
- 42:46Speaker 4: generally accepted opinions. All they do now is published stuff
- 42:50Speaker 4: that all their other lift inmates think like. It's not
- 42:53Speaker 4: even revolutionary stuff anyway.
- 42:55Speaker 1: Because they are a branch of the Revolutionary Front.
- 42:57Speaker 4: It's for goodness sake, people. I know that the Young
- 43:01Speaker 4: Libs were trying to start a new newspaper at USAID
- 43:04Speaker 4: for a while, Bondoir I think it was called. They
- 43:07Speaker 4: asked a name they know it's Latin Latin. They asked
- 43:13Speaker 4: me to write a few things with which they did
- 43:15Speaker 4: like ten years ago, I don't know. Obviously didn't take
- 43:17Speaker 4: off anyway. On the front of the advertisers tomorrow it
- 43:19Speaker 4: says rapists paradise to go from one positive story to
- 43:23Speaker 4: another exclusive Here forensic mental health patients who have committed
- 43:28Speaker 4: violent crimes, including rape and murder are being adequately supervised
- 43:32Speaker 4: in the community with a medical body warning someone will
- 43:36Speaker 4: be hurt due to understaffing. So that isn't that great.
- 43:40Speaker 4: They're just letting rapists and murderers and whatever with mental
- 43:44Speaker 4: illnesses wander around Adelaide. I mean, for goodness act. There
- 43:47Speaker 4: was a guy I remember a few years ago got
- 43:49Speaker 4: released from hospital. He was in there, you know, in detention,
- 43:53Speaker 4: mental detention. They didn't tell the cops they'd released him.
- 43:56Speaker 4: He walked out of there and went and murdered someone.
- 43:58Speaker 4: It was three or four years ago. I just discrace.
- 44:02Speaker 2: Let's take a look at the Gold Coast bulletin end
- 44:03Speaker 2: of the road. The Esplanade at Surface Paradise faces permanent closure.
- 44:08Speaker 2: Would you believe under the biggest change the city's most
- 44:10Speaker 2: famous suburb has seen in decades. A super majority of
- 44:14Speaker 2: counselors back to one hundred and thirty eight million dollar
- 44:16Speaker 2: revitalization of the Gold Coast tourism heart at Transport Committee
- 44:21Speaker 2: meeting on Tuesday.
- 44:23Speaker 3: This is big.
- 44:24Speaker 2: Actually, I mean everyone knows that big strip, the big Esplanade,
- 44:27Speaker 2: it's the icon.
- 44:28Speaker 3: Of of of a surface Paradise. Said, this is big.
- 44:31Speaker 2: This, this is a fascinating, big, big change for the city.
- 44:35Speaker 1: Indeed, I guess they're shutting it down to the traffic. Yeah, yeah,
- 44:38Speaker 1: big pedestrian things, which I mean last time I was there,
- 44:43Speaker 1: you couldn't really go very I just ran up and
- 44:45Speaker 1: down it and I reckon I was outpacing most of
- 44:47Speaker 1: the car.
- 44:48Speaker 4: Probably, But what are the local hoom's going to do
- 44:50Speaker 4: now to trek the building.
- 44:51Speaker 3: They trying to make it better. They're trying to they're
- 44:53Speaker 3: trying to make it look a bit more presentable. I
- 44:56Speaker 3: would I would say you.
- 44:57Speaker 1: Can alway on the Gold Coast Highway mat. But there's no.
- 44:59Speaker 2: Chicks there to great, good, great, all right, we're going
- 45:03Speaker 2: to take a quick break.
- 45:04Speaker 3: Coming up.
- 45:04Speaker 2: How many world wars do you think that democrat ilan
- 45:08Speaker 2: omer believes there's been?
- 45:10Speaker 3: The answer might shock you. That's next.
- 45:16Speaker 2: Welcome back to the show. What's going on with the
- 45:19Speaker 2: lobsters these days?
- 45:21Speaker 3: Caleb?
- 45:21Speaker 4: Well, it's not the lobster who is today's instrument, but
- 45:24Speaker 4: one who tried to steal you are times of the day. Yes,
- 45:34Speaker 4: Emma Smart forty seven, she went to the old fish.
- 45:37Speaker 1: Market, so rather ironic names.
- 45:39Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, I know Smart by name, not by nature.
- 45:42Speaker 4: She're in the old fish market in Weymouth in Dorset,
- 45:45Speaker 4: in England, and she had one goal in man. She
- 45:48Speaker 4: was going to break into this joint and you can
- 45:51Speaker 4: see her here doing so, and take two lobsters that
- 45:55Speaker 4: she believed or take a lobster, sorry, that she believed
- 45:58Speaker 4: was going to be cooked up into turned into dinner.
- 46:01Speaker 4: So she steals this lobster and takes it to release
- 46:05Speaker 4: it into the ocean. The only problem is that the
- 46:07Speaker 4: lobster was not destined for the play. It was in
- 46:11Speaker 4: fact a pet that was being kept in the tank
- 46:14Speaker 4: by the restaurant's owner, and it would have died the
- 46:17Speaker 4: moment it hit the cold harbor water. And not only that,
- 46:22Speaker 4: the other lobster that it was living with died from loneliness. Afterwards,
- 46:27Speaker 4: a stupid animal activist woman has managed to kill two
- 46:32Speaker 4: lobsters that she was allegedly trying to save, and for
- 46:36Speaker 4: doing so, she was charged and found guilty of criminal damage. Rightly, so,
- 46:41Speaker 4: I mean, you know, absolutely worthy dope of the day.
- 46:45Speaker 3: These activists, by no.
- 46:48Speaker 2: I'm just sick of these these activists. They are an
- 46:51Speaker 2: absolute nuisance. They are disgusting to be honest.
- 46:54Speaker 4: And killing lobsters.
- 46:55Speaker 1: To kill the lobsters, she's forty seven, Yeah, eighteen year
- 47:00Speaker 1: old doing that, but she's forty seven, and get a lie.
- 47:05Speaker 1: Do you know that is actually the plot. I can't
- 47:07Speaker 1: go too much into it because it is a movie
- 47:09Speaker 1: that if you were a series TV show, if you
- 47:11Speaker 1: ever watch, you will not be able to unsee, but
- 47:13Speaker 1: that there is actually a plot device in a spoof
- 47:17Speaker 1: comedy about a guy who is sexually attracted to fish
- 47:22Speaker 1: who tries to liberate a lobster and also the ends
- 47:26Speaker 1: up dying, so they actually assume.
- 47:27Speaker 3: What sort of things are you're watching, Joe?
- 47:30Speaker 1: You know now that the government's banned anyways.
- 47:33Speaker 3: Catch your VPNs.
- 47:36Speaker 1: Let's go over saying that in the UK now in fact,
- 47:39Speaker 1: where a Liberal Democrat led council has been ridiculed for
- 47:43Speaker 1: painting dny diny little three foot zebra crossings on a
- 47:47Speaker 1: cycle lane. The road marking. It's just one stripe tended
- 47:55Speaker 1: to help pedestrians cross the cycle lane and avoid the
- 48:00Speaker 1: pitfalls of being run over by an angry BMX.
- 48:03Speaker 3: I'm confused.
- 48:04Speaker 2: I'm confused by that. I would be confused. How would
- 48:07Speaker 2: you know? How would you know that that's a pedestrian?
- 48:09Speaker 2: How do you know that that's just.
- 48:11Speaker 4: It's just going to get more people run over it?
- 48:13Speaker 2: One hundred percent you'd be absolutely snapped by cyclist.
- 48:16Speaker 1: I reckon. It's like, do you reckon? It's like a
- 48:18Speaker 1: safety island where you could just stand on the white
- 48:19Speaker 1: bit in the cycles.
- 48:21Speaker 3: That's what I think, it's that's what I think.
- 48:23Speaker 4: On either side of this, only a council could think
- 48:26Speaker 4: that sort of thing out.
- 48:27Speaker 3: One hundred percent council on there. But yes, yes, so yeah,
- 48:32Speaker 3: maybe it could be what's her name? Someone smart? What was.
- 48:36Speaker 2: Elan omer low Iq? Okay, a Democrat over in the US.
- 48:42Speaker 2: Now she said some really dumb things, but I've got
- 48:44Speaker 2: to say this was her finest ilan.
- 48:46Speaker 3: How many World Wars has there been.
- 48:50Speaker 6: The last time the Alien Enemies Act was invoked, it
- 48:54Speaker 6: was used to detaine and deport German Japanese Italian immigrants
- 49:00Speaker 6: doing War War eleven.
- 49:04Speaker 3: World War eleven?
- 49:05Speaker 4: Wow?
- 49:06Speaker 2: Wow, wow Elan again, not bright low i q World
- 49:11Speaker 2: War eleven. There you go, some history lessons for you,
- 49:13Speaker 2: for you both from a star democratic that this could
- 49:16Speaker 2: be embarrassing yourself.
- 49:17Speaker 1: You could please go and get a nice refreshing slurpee.
- 49:20Speaker 2: From seven to yes, but that is a that is
- 49:23Speaker 2: a very very good point.
- 49:24Speaker 3: Well, it's been a fun night, hasn't it.
- 49:26Speaker 2: Caleb and Joe, thank you very much, Thank you for
- 49:28Speaker 2: your company at home, stay with us.
- 49:29Speaker 3: Rita panehy is next. Good night,
