- 0:12Speaker 1: The report.
- 0:15Speaker 2: Tonight Chris Bone's bizarre climate speech today, Why is this
- 0:20Speaker 2: man telling such falsehoods? Another big scandal with Victoria's labor government?
- 0:25Speaker 2: Or is it really also tonight Anthony even easy insults Japan.
- 0:29Speaker 3: All over again?
- 0:31Speaker 2: Do we blame that on the young women who's trying
- 0:34Speaker 2: to impress? And plenty more, including Rowan Dean. But first,
- 0:40Speaker 2: we now don't just have Islamus terrorism. We also have
- 0:44Speaker 2: our first case of left wing terrorism. There's a culture
- 0:49Speaker 2: of violence growing in Australia and I'm going to show
- 0:51Speaker 2: you a video about that latest terrorism that should tell
- 0:53Speaker 2: you of a very dangerous shift in the culture of
- 0:58Speaker 2: the left. Now, before that, though, let me show you
- 1:03Speaker 2: how we're building up to this bonfire and why a
- 1:06Speaker 2: lot of people who read this story today students to
- 1:09Speaker 2: skip class for anti Pauline Hanson rally. They won't realize
- 1:15Speaker 2: that this isn't just the case of silly children who
- 1:18Speaker 2: at least meant well. That protest next week will actually
- 1:23Speaker 2: be of students around Australia outraged by the supposed threat
- 1:27Speaker 2: of Pauling Hanson. Students say no to Hanson, as the
- 1:31Speaker 2: protest poster says, say no to racism. Stand up against
- 1:34Speaker 2: the far right. Those students won't know that the real
- 1:38Speaker 2: danger is them, or rather the extremist manipulating them, extremists
- 1:44Speaker 2: with violence on their mind. Let's have another look at
- 1:48Speaker 2: the poster because it gives a clue here admitting that
- 1:50Speaker 2: this protest is actually organized by the education officer of
- 1:55Speaker 2: the National Union of Students just under the.
- 1:59Speaker 3: Next to the Hansen word there.
- 2:02Speaker 2: Now that clarifies things because that education officer is Yasmind Johnson,
- 2:07Speaker 2: and she is a member of the socialist alternative, hardline
- 2:10Speaker 2: Marxist group opposed to our democracy. And know this organization
- 2:16Speaker 2: does not mean well at all. I actually talked about
- 2:20Speaker 2: it earlier this week. One of the socialist alternatives many
- 2:23Speaker 2: front groups, the Campaign Against Racism and Fascism, organized they
- 2:28Speaker 2: protests in Melbourne last October where police were pelted with
- 2:32Speaker 2: rocks and that violence sure wasn't a coincidence.
- 2:36Speaker 4: Weeks earlier, the Campaign Against Racism and Fascism group held
- 2:40Speaker 4: a meeting at the University of Melbourne. Protesters were told
- 2:44Speaker 4: to be militant and be aggressive. A strategy on a
- 2:47Speaker 4: slide show suggested to use bricks to throw at a cop.
- 2:56Speaker 2: Now, this coalition against racism and fascism, and to repeat
- 2:59Speaker 2: it is a socialist alternative Front was also behind the
- 3:03Speaker 2: angry protests against Hanson in Melbourne last Monday. That's because
- 3:07Speaker 2: it's declared strategies to fight the far right and I
- 3:11Speaker 2: quote directly confront them in the street, which to me
- 3:15Speaker 2: sounds like a clear threat of physical violence, which is
- 3:18Speaker 2: why Pauline Hanson was forced to scrap her initial plan
- 3:22Speaker 2: to announce the Victorian election candidates on the septs of
- 3:24Speaker 2: Parliament House. She had to move to an indoor venue
- 3:27Speaker 2: that could be heavily protected by police. The back to that,
- 3:31Speaker 2: Yesmond Johnson, the organized with his student protest against Hansen.
- 3:36Speaker 2: She sure has absorbed this socialist alternative teachings.
- 3:41Speaker 3: And I saw her giving.
- 3:42Speaker 2: Evidence last month that the Royal Commission into Antisemitism, and
- 3:49Speaker 2: it was chilling.
- 3:50Speaker 3: She said her Jewish.
- 3:51Speaker 2: Family had all been had all but been eliminated in
- 3:55Speaker 2: the Holocaust and declared that violence was bad. So far promising,
- 4:00Speaker 2: but shame on her. Violence was bad unless it was
- 4:06Speaker 2: against Israel, the Jewish homeland.
- 4:09Speaker 5: The violence is okay if it's perpetrated against Israel.
- 4:13Speaker 2: Is that right?
- 4:15Speaker 6: I think the resistance of people against colonization has always
- 4:20Speaker 6: involved elements of both mass non ra violence and also
- 4:24Speaker 6: violent resistance.
- 4:28Speaker 2: In fact, as Johnson went on, it turned out that
- 4:31Speaker 2: violence was actually good if used by anyone she deemed oppressed.
- 4:38Speaker 6: I don't hold movements for the justice of the oppressed
- 4:43Speaker 6: to a standard that says there can never be any violence.
- 4:49Speaker 2: What's more, check out her answer when she was asked, well,
- 4:53Speaker 2: what about the Hamas Terris group which started the latest
- 4:57Speaker 2: war with Israel started, as you know by slaw during
- 5:00Speaker 2: twelve hundred israelis most of them civilians, raping women, beheading men, murdering,
- 5:06Speaker 2: even children, burning their homes. Doon, Johnson just dodged.
- 5:13Speaker 7: I'm not a political supporter of her mass, but nor
- 5:15Speaker 7: am I here to condemn the actions of people who
- 5:19Speaker 7: have been placed in a concentration camp by Israel for decades.
- 5:25Speaker 2: Concentration camps, for Heaven's say, not here to condemn her mass.
- 5:30Speaker 2: And that's the organizer now of this protest against Hansen. Now,
- 5:35Speaker 2: I know, excuses and all that the young can be
- 5:37Speaker 2: stupid and callous, as you might look back on that
- 5:40Speaker 2: years from now and feeld utterly ashamed. But someone is
- 5:43Speaker 2: teaching her this stuff and separaturists. Specifically, someone else has
- 5:50Speaker 2: convinced all this protesting school children of lies, like you
- 5:55Speaker 2: know Israel is some satanic country committing genocide and imposed
- 6:00Speaker 2: a part. I'd have been there in this complete rubbish.
- 6:03Speaker 2: But what do you think happens if we teach children
- 6:07Speaker 2: for years now the Israels and monster, Australia's genocidal iiO,
- 6:14Speaker 2: the US's satanic. Don't you think some people are going
- 6:19Speaker 2: to conclude that against that kind of evil?
- 6:22Speaker 3: Oh?
- 6:22Speaker 2: Yes, violence is indeed excusable.
- 6:26Speaker 3: Let's go.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Because rhetoric has its consequences and we've seen that now,
- 6:32Speaker 2: not just with the threats against Hans and the attacks
- 6:34Speaker 2: and police last year. Another example the terrorist attack on
- 6:38Speaker 2: Loved Technologies. Now in July last year, activists attack this
- 6:43Speaker 2: defense manufacturer in Melbourne. It makes parts for the F
- 6:47Speaker 2: thirty five jet fighter, torching three cars there. A counter
- 6:52Speaker 2: terror team from Victoria Police, the Australian Federal Police and
- 6:55Speaker 2: ASIO this week said they were now investigating this as
- 6:59Speaker 2: an actor terrorism, potentially orchestrated by far left extremists with
- 7:05Speaker 2: anarchist and revolutionary ideologies.
- 7:10Speaker 3: Well, color me not surprised.
- 7:11Speaker 2: Because you just look at the video put out by
- 7:14Speaker 2: people claiming responsibility for that arson attack.
- 7:18Speaker 3: A video of a masked.
- 7:19Speaker 2: Individual with an Aboriginal Palestinian flag and wearing a Torres
- 7:23Speaker 2: Strait Island badge.
- 7:24Speaker 3: Who wrapped up all these.
- 7:25Speaker 2: Revolutionary Marxist barrel cries and the causes the Jew all
- 7:31Speaker 2: these people, all these oppressed peoples that they want to
- 7:34Speaker 2: fight for, into one threat of violence.
- 7:37Speaker 8: Consider this a warning. After twenty one months of an
- 7:41Speaker 8: accelerated genocide against the Palestinian people by the illegitimate Zionist density,
- 7:47Speaker 8: eight decades of American warmongering and imperialism, two and a
- 7:52Speaker 8: half centuries of the most violent colonial oppression, ethnic cleansing
- 7:57Speaker 8: and murder of Aboriginal peoples across so called Australia. Love
- 8:01Speaker 8: of technologies has chosen its place at the intersection of
- 8:05Speaker 8: these catastrophes. Every worker in this supply chain is complicit.
- 8:11Speaker 8: For the past few months, we have been closely watching you.
- 8:15Speaker 8: We have your addresses.
- 8:21Speaker 2: And that person ended with a cry of death to Australia,
- 8:25Speaker 2: death to America. I don't know if the socialist alternative,
- 8:30Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised if he has absorbed their teachings.
- 8:33Speaker 2: I mean, note again, all those symbols he showed to
- 8:35Speaker 2: the alleged oppressed people. You know, not just Palestinians, averaging
- 8:39Speaker 2: these torrestraight Islanders.
- 8:41Speaker 3: You know, is.
- 8:41Speaker 2: Violence in their cause now also justified.
- 8:45Speaker 3: This is a w And look I get it.
- 8:52Speaker 2: You know, you've got so many unemployable graduates. You know,
- 8:56Speaker 2: imagine someone with a useless degree in most colonial studies
- 9:01Speaker 2: or gender studies or whatever, living in some grubby northcok
- 9:06Speaker 2: share house, feeling underappreciated by this world that doesn't appreciate
- 9:13Speaker 2: their talent. They must be so exciting to just put
- 9:16Speaker 2: on a mask and scare people like some kind of
- 9:21Speaker 2: mass avenger, a spider man of the left. Finally, you've
- 9:25Speaker 2: got power, and your cause is so good, your enemies
- 9:30Speaker 2: are so horrible. The more violent you are, the more
- 9:33Speaker 2: noble you are. And that is how monsters are made,
- 9:38Speaker 2: like the Staliners who are executing hundreds of thousands of people,
- 9:41Speaker 2: not because the Staliness were evil. Of course, they're doing
- 9:46Speaker 2: it because it's to save society's good health. It was
- 9:50Speaker 2: a hygiene measure. Now Here, the numbers of these violence
- 9:56Speaker 2: excusing socialists, Marxists, really they're growing, and they are the
- 10:01Speaker 2: real danger.
- 10:02Speaker 3: And this is the price.
- 10:02Speaker 2: I think we've got to pay for academics and politicians
- 10:05Speaker 2: for years preaching this bizarre self hatred of the West,
- 10:10Speaker 2: you know, and especially of its great exemplars of the
- 10:15Speaker 2: West's freedoms, starting with Israel, the abbandience the government mean,
- 10:25Speaker 2: I was choking under the pressure of Paul In Hansen
- 10:27Speaker 2: and today what embarrassment over afairs Minister Tony Burke, he's
- 10:31Speaker 2: the man now. I'm most likely to replace Anthony Albany.
- 10:33Speaker 2: He's his Prime Minister one day, I think anyway, and
- 10:37Speaker 2: he was going to make a big speech at the
- 10:38Speaker 2: National Press Club tomorrow to show is really going to
- 10:41Speaker 2: slash immigration. I mean, look what the polls are saying
- 10:44Speaker 2: people want it. And already I'm thinking, you know, hey,
- 10:47Speaker 2: what's taking here because the immigration intake is still way
- 10:50Speaker 2: too high. The promise cuts you keep making turn out
- 10:53Speaker 2: less every year than the government you know was planning.
- 10:59Speaker 2: But this time, you know, Burke, You've got to believe
- 11:01Speaker 2: the sort of leaks, the briefings that were being given. Oh,
- 11:05Speaker 2: he was going to go in really hard. No one
- 11:07Speaker 2: missed the nice guy. Instead, you know, tougher family visa rules.
- 11:10Speaker 2: Reportedly fewer rights are asylum seekrets of work and appeal
- 11:14Speaker 2: against decisions that kick them out and more.
- 11:17Speaker 3: Hard man stuff.
- 11:18Speaker 2: Except when Burke, who's of the labor right, presented his
- 11:22Speaker 2: plan to cabinet, which is dominated by the labor left
- 11:25Speaker 2: last Monday, Wow, big pushback, alarm raised, voices were told
- 11:32Speaker 2: labor being tough in immigration?
- 11:34Speaker 3: Are we really poorling Hanson?
- 11:36Speaker 2: Hanson would of course be a lot tougher than Burke
- 11:38Speaker 2: was planning, but anyway, that is why Tony Burke had
- 11:41Speaker 2: to cancel this big speech tomorrow said his plans weren't ready,
- 11:46Speaker 2: which is one way of putting it. Anthony Abanez was
- 11:48Speaker 2: on holiday, so that Monday media was in fact chaired
- 11:50Speaker 2: and said by Deputy Prime Minister of Richard Moles, who
- 11:53Speaker 2: today pretended, oh.
- 11:54Speaker 3: No, all was sweet.
- 11:56Speaker 2: Arguments what arguments policy?
- 12:01Speaker 9: No, we've been working through the policy.
- 12:03Speaker 4: There's been a I mean, there's been a whole lot
- 12:05Speaker 4: of iterations of what we've done in the space of immigration.
- 12:11Speaker 3: The league so.
- 12:12Speaker 2: Different and peace and harmony was not quite what Chris
- 12:16Speaker 2: Bone was hinting at over.
- 12:18Speaker 10: As every journalist in Australia knows, you've never heard me
- 12:21Speaker 10: come in on a cabinet discussion in private or in public.
- 12:23Speaker 10: Many of you have tried, none of you have succeeded,
- 12:25Speaker 10: and you're not succeeding today.
- 12:27Speaker 3: How far she migration unfucceeded.
- 12:29Speaker 10: Tony Burke will provide further updates.
- 12:34Speaker 2: Joined mister panel, former Liberal Senator Holly Hughes now with
- 12:37Speaker 2: One Nation and Michael Costa, former New South Wales labor treasurer. Michael,
- 12:41Speaker 2: what does all that tell you?
- 12:44Speaker 11: Well, it tells me that the left is flexing its muscles.
- 12:48Speaker 11: Are you going to remember here, by the way, if
- 12:50Speaker 11: Tiny Burke is proposing to do what has been leaked,
- 12:54Speaker 11: clearly I support that. I mean it should have been
- 12:56Speaker 11: done a long time ago, and even more should be done. So,
- 13:00Speaker 11: I mean the policy direction is the right direction. But
- 13:03Speaker 11: we've got to remember you've got a prime minister that
- 13:07Speaker 11: was a keen supporter of labor for refugees. He and
- 13:11Speaker 11: Wong and others embarrassed Bill Shorten when he tried to
- 13:14Speaker 11: do the turnbacks and support Tony Abbott's policy in twenty fifteen.
- 13:20Speaker 11: So it doesn't surprise me at all that the left,
- 13:23Speaker 11: and I wouldn't be surprised the Prime Minister's also behind this,
- 13:26Speaker 11: has tried a torpedo. Even this moderate policy in the
- 13:30Speaker 11: right direction. And as you rightly said, Andrew, the immigration
- 13:34Speaker 11: levels are too high. Everybody knows that the quality of
- 13:38Speaker 11: the immigration is a question. We had those revelations about
- 13:42Speaker 11: skill migration, including family members and everybody else, and the
- 13:47Speaker 11: actual amount of skilled trades when we get is very low.
- 13:50Speaker 11: So look, this is a clear case of the Left
- 13:52Speaker 11: flexing its muscles, and I wouldn't be surprised at prime
- 13:55Speaker 11: ministers behind it.
- 13:58Speaker 3: Hiy Hughes.
- 14:00Speaker 12: Ah, those poor darlings all are scared from one nation
- 14:03Speaker 12: and those big scary backpackers that they're going to stop
- 14:06Speaker 12: coming to their country.
- 14:08Speaker 13: We all know that that's not the issue with migration.
- 14:10Speaker 12: It's not the number of backpackers, but even their suggestion
- 14:13Speaker 12: that they're going to somehow tough enough asylum seekers and
- 14:17Speaker 12: being able to work.
- 14:18Speaker 13: I was actually having a discussion this morning with someone.
- 14:20Speaker 12: Who's just got back from the UK and they were
- 14:22Speaker 12: pointing out the work restrictions actually are leading to rises
- 14:26Speaker 12: in crime because people are sitting around all day aren't
- 14:29Speaker 12: able to work, and if we're bringing these people in
- 14:31Speaker 12: they should be skilled migrants for a start. I mean,
- 14:34Speaker 12: I'm just surprised Tony Burke had the guts to cancel
- 14:36Speaker 12: it up front. I thought he might have just pulled
- 14:38Speaker 12: a sicky tomorrow and that's why he couldn't go ahead
- 14:41Speaker 12: with it. But this is just totally unbelievable that Labor
- 14:47Speaker 12: would ever get serious about cracking down on immigration.
- 14:49Speaker 13: It's their bread and butter.
- 14:50Speaker 12: We see with the citizenship ceremonies being held with the
- 14:56Speaker 12: Electoral Commission officials at the back of the room to
- 14:58Speaker 12: make sure they're all signed up to vote as soon
- 15:00Speaker 12: as it's possible.
- 15:01Speaker 13: So you know, no one believes that.
- 15:03Speaker 12: No one believes that Labor wants to do anything about this,
- 15:06Speaker 12: and I guess you know, when the left tell you
- 15:08Speaker 12: who they really are, you should listen.
- 15:12Speaker 2: Well, just also suggest that whatever Tony Burke might promise
- 15:15Speaker 2: before an election, the Labor Party might roll back after it.
- 15:19Speaker 2: The collective might swallow it up. But Michael for Tony.
- 15:25Speaker 3: Burke, right.
- 15:26Speaker 2: This is the man who famously led in Palestinians from
- 15:29Speaker 2: terrorists round Gaza. One in three voters in his seat
- 15:32Speaker 2: are Muslim, even greeted by the way as Palaestinis at
- 15:36Speaker 2: the airport. To now want to go tough on immigration,
- 15:40Speaker 2: does that confirm that he does have very strong leadership ambitions.
- 15:45Speaker 11: I don't think that's what it's about, Andrew. I think
- 15:48Speaker 11: this is a strategic decision. It has to do with
- 15:51Speaker 11: one Nation. I totally agree with that analysis. They're worried
- 15:55Speaker 11: about some of those outer suburban seats and the rural seats,
- 16:00Speaker 11: particularly one aping Hunter, and I think they're seeking to
- 16:03Speaker 11: respond in the mold as way they can that heads
- 16:06Speaker 11: towards that direction, to try and take some wind out
- 16:09Speaker 11: of the sales of One Nation. I think that's what
- 16:11Speaker 11: it's all about. The dumb left, of course, based in
- 16:14Speaker 11: the inner city, doesn't want to bar of this even
- 16:17Speaker 11: if it costs them seats in the outer suburbs of Sydney.
- 16:21Speaker 11: So that's what I think it's about. Tony Burke hasn't
- 16:24Speaker 11: changed his spots.
- 16:27Speaker 2: Hey Holly in Victoria, big media story about a labor
- 16:30Speaker 2: scandal that, to be honest, when I look closer into it,
- 16:33Speaker 2: didn't amount too much, you know, not to me. Victoria's
- 16:37Speaker 2: anti krup from Watchdog Go Back has put out a
- 16:41Speaker 2: report on a wage deal and control of volunteer firefighters.
- 16:46Speaker 2: This deal that former Premier Daniel Andrews made with the
- 16:49Speaker 2: hard left leadership of the Firefighters Union, and it was
- 16:52Speaker 2: made behind the back of the minister supposedly in charge,
- 16:55Speaker 2: who's hard against it and quit in protests have they.
- 16:59Speaker 14: We did find that he authorized the then Special Minister State,
- 17:03Speaker 14: Mister Gavin Jennings, with the assistance of the Deputy Secretary
- 17:06Speaker 14: Department of Premier in Cabinet, to conduct an undisclosed backroom
- 17:10Speaker 14: deal with the Secretary of the United Firefighters Union, mister
- 17:13Speaker 14: Peter Marshall, and their actions in conducting this deal was
- 17:18Speaker 14: contrary to government policy procedures, their respective codes of conduct conventions,
- 17:24Speaker 14: and that, as you said, mister Marshall was able to
- 17:27Speaker 14: use that as leverage.
- 17:30Speaker 2: Now, Holly, I agree, you know it's typical Dan Andrews Fagueray,
- 17:34Speaker 2: But I mean, am I shocked that a premier makes
- 17:36Speaker 2: the big call that was clear at the time he
- 17:38Speaker 2: was doing it. And the bottom line is that this
- 17:40Speaker 2: reported a report admitted it could find no corruption, no
- 17:44Speaker 2: evidence for wild claims of the Firefighters Union boss Peter
- 17:47Speaker 2: Marshall dirt on the premier was blackmailing, in which Daniel
- 17:52Speaker 2: Andrews put out a statement saying exactly the same.
- 17:55Speaker 3: I mean, when the only.
- 17:56Speaker 2: Recommendations had come out of this eight year report is
- 18:00Speaker 2: that politicians and staff get training on proper behavior. It
- 18:02Speaker 2: seems to be a case of more thunder than rain.
- 18:05Speaker 13: Well, I honestly did anyone expect anything different.
- 18:08Speaker 12: It was an inquiry put together by the Don Andrews government.
- 18:12Speaker 13: It took eight years for it to come out. Iback
- 18:15Speaker 13: has zero teeth.
- 18:16Speaker 12: We've got an Ipack inquiry going on in New South
- 18:18Speaker 12: Wales at the moment it has considerable more power than
- 18:21Speaker 12: Iback does. But I mean, it is outrageous that this
- 18:24Speaker 12: report has taken eight years.
- 18:27Speaker 13: But of course Ben Carroll, you can imagine, will not
- 18:29Speaker 13: take no action.
- 18:31Speaker 12: And it's only the late Joan Garrett, who was the
- 18:33Speaker 12: only one that seems to have had any integrity in
- 18:35Speaker 12: the Andrews government who actually resigned from cabinet over these well,
- 18:39Speaker 12: Ben Carroll was still sitting around the cabinet table. So
- 18:42Speaker 12: I think if Victoria wants to get serious about cleaning
- 18:46Speaker 12: itself up, it does need an anti corruption body that
- 18:49Speaker 12: actually has some teeth, maybe not as many as I Haack,
- 18:52Speaker 12: which can sometimes be seen to overstep the mark, but
- 18:56Speaker 12: certainly this is just a ridiculous waste of time, effort,
- 19:00Speaker 12: money on everyone's behalf to really not show anything.
- 19:06Speaker 2: Michael Costler, a premier, goes behind the relevant ministers back
- 19:10Speaker 2: to make a deal. Yeah, should you color be shocked
- 19:16Speaker 2: and horrified?
- 19:17Speaker 11: Well, I think the real issue is the one about
- 19:20Speaker 11: standards for corruption. I mean, look, people in New South
- 19:23Speaker 11: Wales have been found guilty of corruption for less than
- 19:28Speaker 11: that for moving a staff in one case from one
- 19:31Speaker 11: office to the Parliament House. So you've got different standards
- 19:34Speaker 11: across the comworth and I think it makes a mockery
- 19:37Speaker 11: of the whole definition of corruption. You know, in Victoria,
- 19:40Speaker 11: of course you've got to have an indictable offense. In
- 19:42Speaker 11: New South Wales you don't have to have that. And
- 19:44Speaker 11: some of the activities in New South Wales the people
- 19:47Speaker 11: have been found corrupt for would be seen as legitimate
- 19:49Speaker 11: politics in Victoria and federally. So there's a real problem
- 19:53Speaker 11: with these definitions and people need to get to the
- 19:56Speaker 11: bottom of a consistent, uniform system or else it's going
- 19:59Speaker 11: to be held up to mockery.
- 20:02Speaker 12: So if you want to be Corruptsy Hughes.
- 20:09Speaker 2: Miche across the Holly Hughes, thank you very much to
- 20:11Speaker 2: you both. After the break, Chris Bone's bizarre climate speech today,
- 20:16Speaker 2: I'll fect check that. As I said, Tony Burke canceled
- 20:24Speaker 2: his National Press Club speech tomorrow to save himself embarrassment.
- 20:27Speaker 2: If only energy Minster Chris Bone it made the same
- 20:30Speaker 2: call with his speech there today. Now. Bone planned to
- 20:34Speaker 2: unveil more changes to try to reach is now hopeless
- 20:37Speaker 2: target of generating eighty two percent of our electricity by
- 20:41Speaker 2: renewable energy by twenty thirty but he found it impossible
- 20:45Speaker 2: to actually promise now to make that deadline.
- 20:48Speaker 9: Will you get twenty two percent? I think we can.
- 20:51Speaker 10: I think we can do, rather than will well forget
- 20:53Speaker 10: to two percent in twenty thirty one and not twenty
- 20:55Speaker 10: thirty That's still a very good thing.
- 20:59Speaker 2: In fact, and implied that this massive push towards net zero,
- 21:02Speaker 2: costing tens of billions, could make little difference to the
- 21:06Speaker 2: world's climate.
- 21:07Speaker 10: As our opponents like the parrot. We are about one
- 21:10Speaker 10: percent of global emissions.
- 21:14Speaker 3: Now let me correct you, Chris.
- 21:15Speaker 2: We're about one percent of human emissions, yes, but about
- 21:19Speaker 2: zero point zero five percent of total emissions when you
- 21:22Speaker 2: add natural ones. In other words, so little that nothing
- 21:27Speaker 2: we do here could make any difference to the climate
- 21:29Speaker 2: that anyone could measure. The bone wasn't finished fantasizing. He
- 21:34Speaker 2: said he'd actually seen this climate crisis drowning to valu.
- 21:38Speaker 10: I've stood it in the most narrow point of two
- 21:40Speaker 10: volu and see the impact of rising season.
- 21:44Speaker 2: Another Chris correction, Chris, The last big study of two
- 21:47Speaker 2: VLU by top sea level experts at Auckland University in
- 21:51Speaker 2: twenty eighteen found two VLU had actually grown, not drowned,
- 21:56Speaker 2: grown by two point nine percent in the four decades
- 21:59Speaker 2: through twenty four And there was this reference to the
- 22:03Speaker 2: around war.
- 22:04Speaker 10: Good climate policy is good energy security policy as well.
- 22:08Speaker 10: Building renewables more into your household and your country improved
- 22:12Speaker 10: your energy security. The sun can't be blockaded, the wind
- 22:16Speaker 10: can't be sentioned.
- 22:18Speaker 2: Come on, Chris, that blockade heard us in fact, mostly
- 22:23Speaker 2: by stopping petrol and diesel and sol.
- 22:26Speaker 3: The power can't replace that.
- 22:29Speaker 2: And if we actually extracted more of our own coal
- 22:34Speaker 2: use our uranium, got more gas out of the ground,
- 22:38Speaker 2: no blockade would stop that either.
- 22:41Speaker 3: Joining me is Rondine.
- 22:42Speaker 2: It's are in chief of the Spectator Australia, hosts of
- 22:44Speaker 2: Outsiders every Sunday at nine am, and hosts of his
- 22:46Speaker 2: own show on Fridays.
- 22:48Speaker 3: At seven pm.
- 22:49Speaker 2: Rowan, please your reaction to Chris Bone's speech today.
- 22:54Speaker 1: Well, it was rather sad.
- 22:55Speaker 15: It was the incredible shrinking vision of Chris Bowen. Remember
- 23:00Speaker 15: we were originally going to be a global renewables energy superpower.
- 23:06Speaker 15: That was the vision of Cris bow and back yes,
- 23:08Speaker 15: three or four years ago. And this involved us setting
- 23:11Speaker 15: the agenda for the world on how renewables we would
- 23:14Speaker 15: be the superpower.
- 23:15Speaker 1: They'd all be coming to us.
- 23:16Speaker 15: And that kind of vision didn't quite work out, and
- 23:19Speaker 15: we swapped to the green hydrogen vision. This is when
- 23:22Speaker 15: we were going to invent a magical new form of electricity.
- 23:26Speaker 15: Just add water and you've got oh abundance of green hydrogen.
- 23:30Speaker 15: We were setting up green hydrogen hubs left, right and center.
- 23:34Speaker 15: They all floundered, so the vision shrunk even smaller. We
- 23:37Speaker 15: were going to have floating windmills out of sea, magical stuff, fantastic.
- 23:42Speaker 15: They didn't work, and the investors all pulled out, and
- 23:44Speaker 15: the dolphins and the whale watchers weren't too happy either,
- 23:47Speaker 15: So that vision shrunk down.
- 23:49Speaker 1: So we've had we had one point.
- 23:51Speaker 15: We're all going to save two hundred and seventy five
- 23:52Speaker 15: dollars electricity every year or whatever it was that that
- 23:56Speaker 15: all got stuff. We're now down to begging or bribing
- 24:01Speaker 15: farmers and a few warehouses out in Fishwick or wherever
- 24:05Speaker 15: to stick some solar panels on the roof.
- 24:07Speaker 1: That's what the vision has come down to.
- 24:09Speaker 15: The vision now is please put a battery in your
- 24:13Speaker 15: backyard or your garage will pay for it. Please put
- 24:17Speaker 15: some solar panels on your roof or on your back
- 24:19Speaker 15: of the shed, and we'll pay for it.
- 24:22Speaker 1: This is where we are at.
- 24:24Speaker 15: It is so pathetic, and I didn't think the Press
- 24:28Speaker 15: Club did a brilliant job back actually holding him to account,
- 24:32Speaker 15: as they like to say.
- 24:33Speaker 1: They kind of let him get away with.
- 24:34Speaker 15: As you said, all these various claims about this, that
- 24:37Speaker 15: and the other. The reality is our prosperity, our economy
- 24:42Speaker 15: entirely relies on cheap, abundant energy going into the future,
- 24:46Speaker 15: particularly with AI, and all we've got is more of
- 24:49Speaker 15: the same stuff, more solar panels, more of this, and
- 24:53Speaker 15: demonizing coal. We've got more of the demonizing coal routine,
- 24:57Speaker 15: which is kind of pathetic seeing as they've let the
- 24:59Speaker 15: entire industry go to the ground.
- 25:01Speaker 1: But we did get Andrew.
- 25:02Speaker 15: There is some good news I'm not being entirely facetious here.
- 25:06Speaker 1: We did get a duck curve.
- 25:09Speaker 15: Now, I always get excited when politicians start talking about
- 25:12Speaker 15: a curve. Keating used to talk about a J curve
- 25:16Speaker 15: or something or other, or a dead cat bounce. So
- 25:18Speaker 15: when socialists tell you that they've got a curve, sit
- 25:22Speaker 15: up and pay attention. Michael Mann had his hockey stick, curve,
- 25:26Speaker 15: J curve whatever to describe things. It always means things
- 25:29Speaker 15: aren't working out, and things aren't you know, the stats
- 25:32Speaker 15: aren't going the right way. Chris Bowen introduced the duck curve,
- 25:35Speaker 15: which does something like this or something. He waved his
- 25:37Speaker 15: hands around a bit, but to me, what he was
- 25:39Speaker 15: really saying was if it walks like a communist central
- 25:44Speaker 15: command plan, and it quacks like a communist central command plan,
- 25:48Speaker 15: it is a communist central command plan. And that's what
- 25:51Speaker 15: we have now in Australia, a central economy relying on
- 25:55Speaker 15: more and more taxpayer subsidies going in to prop up
- 25:58Speaker 15: these weird targets. So true this year or that year,
- 26:03Speaker 15: which means nothing anyway, because the vision of what we
- 26:06Speaker 15: were supposed to be, what we promised, has shrunk to
- 26:09Speaker 15: a little outcrop on two Valu where Chris Bowen has
- 26:12Speaker 15: stood there, he's like guitarrosts.
- 26:14Speaker 1: Remember when Antonette.
- 26:15Speaker 16: Enter he stood Cortez, he was stout Cortez, and but
- 26:24Speaker 16: one else has seen it.
- 26:26Speaker 2: You're wrong, give him credit. I don't think you've given
- 26:29Speaker 2: enough credit because there he was right. The science says
- 26:32Speaker 2: you and I you've reported it to the science says
- 26:35Speaker 2: Tuvalu is actually growing. But who needs science when you
- 26:39Speaker 2: got Cris bones, magic eyeballs. Just by standing on the beach,
- 26:43Speaker 2: he can tell you it's it's been shrinking, it's gone away,
- 26:47Speaker 2: and it's all because of global warming. Seriously, but I
- 26:50Speaker 2: wanted to do I do want to give him a
- 26:52Speaker 2: little bit of credit. Rowan here, and I think you
- 26:54Speaker 2: might agree with me for at least today, agreeing to
- 26:58Speaker 2: the blinding obvious.
- 26:59Speaker 3: It is too and a half weeks since I.
- 27:01Speaker 2: Reported that via l ABC clip which you've talked about
- 27:05Speaker 2: too on your show, a clip you know, fantasizing about
- 27:09Speaker 2: sodomizing billionaire Gina Reinhart mincinger guts to a pace. The
- 27:14Speaker 2: ABC still refuses to say sorry. But Chris Bowe today
- 27:18Speaker 2: became the fifth front bencher of the Labor Right to
- 27:22Speaker 2: condemn it.
- 27:22Speaker 10: Here is I haven't seen the clip that you're referring to.
- 27:25Speaker 10: It's not a show that I watch, but I've read
- 27:27Speaker 10: the reports and if the reports i've read I write,
- 27:29Speaker 10: which I shouldn't, are then it is not appropriate. It
- 27:33Speaker 10: should not have aired and the ABC should take appropriate action.
- 27:37Speaker 10: But you know, no Australian, even in Australian I profoundly
- 27:41Speaker 10: disagree with missus Ryan Hart, should be subject to that
- 27:44Speaker 10: sort of commentary. I would expect an apology now own.
- 27:47Speaker 2: I should note that no ministers from the Labor left,
- 27:50Speaker 2: which is Anthony Albani's satisfaction, they have said the same.
- 27:53Speaker 2: That's ridiculous. Five ministers of front benches of the right
- 27:57Speaker 2: have but the ABC still after two half weeks, won't
- 28:01Speaker 2: say sorry. What does that say about what's necessary over there?
- 28:06Speaker 15: What it says is the opinion polls clearly and well
- 28:08Speaker 15: done to you Andrew for originally bringing that to light
- 28:11Speaker 15: and that disgusting clip. What the opinion polls are clearly
- 28:15Speaker 15: showing Labor is that people are revolted by it. Nobody
- 28:19Speaker 15: can believe that the ABC could be so despicable, so depraved,
- 28:23Speaker 15: so obscene. You know, our politicians aren't stupid. They read
- 28:27Speaker 15: the opinion polls and they know full well that to
- 28:30Speaker 15: eat to do anything other than condemn it is a failure,
- 28:34Speaker 15: a big fail And the fact that Bowen and Miles
- 28:37Speaker 15: and others of the so called right of the Labor
- 28:39Speaker 15: Party are jumping on this but at the same time
- 28:42Speaker 15: saying they haven't.
- 28:43Speaker 1: Actually seen it because where did they see it?
- 28:45Speaker 15: Did they originally see it on the ABC and not
- 28:47Speaker 15: say anything, or did they, heaven forbid see it on
- 28:49Speaker 15: Andrew Bolt Show. Heaven forbid, No, we can't have that.
- 28:52Speaker 15: So they're all pretending they haven't seen it, which of
- 28:54Speaker 15: course they've all seen it. You'd have to be blind,
- 28:57Speaker 15: Freddie not to have seen that clip by now, and
- 29:00Speaker 15: largely thanks to this network. The reality is that it
- 29:04Speaker 15: is so disgusting and so depraved it is shocked most Australians.
- 29:08Speaker 15: I've heard overheard people in cafes talking about it, sickened
- 29:11Speaker 15: by it. This is, you know, this has can do
- 29:15Speaker 15: to labor or should do to labor, what the entire
- 29:18Speaker 15: Britney Higgins et cetera, et cetera did to the Liberal Party.
- 29:24Speaker 1: This shows that the Labor Party.
- 29:26Speaker 15: Are disgusting when it comes to genuinely caring about women.
- 29:32Speaker 1: That's what it shows the fact that they've equivocated with it.
- 29:35Speaker 1: I also slightly saying, oh, well, yeah.
- 29:38Speaker 3: He did, he did.
- 29:39Speaker 2: It took him, No, he did. But I have to
- 29:42Speaker 2: say for the ABC, if the two and a half
- 29:44Speaker 2: weeks still not still to refuse to apologize, suggests it's
- 29:48Speaker 2: a deliberate decision by someone in the organization, very senior.
- 29:52Speaker 2: And if that's their call, they have no right to
- 29:55Speaker 2: keep their job. They should be fired. After the two
- 29:58Speaker 2: and a half weeks, I've got a momentary mistake, two
- 30:01Speaker 2: and a half weeks of deep thought, they haven't apologized.
- 30:04Speaker 2: Out Rowndine, thank you so much for your time. After
- 30:09Speaker 2: the break, Anthony Albanesi insaults Japan yet again, and I
- 30:12Speaker 2: just wonder hear me out? Is he getting distracted by women?
- 30:17Speaker 3: He's trying to.
- 30:17Speaker 2: Impress an astonishing revelation today the background, Anthony Albanese seems
- 30:29Speaker 2: to have gone out of his way to insult Japan
- 30:32Speaker 2: with some amazing sexism and boorishness.
- 30:36Speaker 3: And I've got to ask.
- 30:39Speaker 2: His weakness for a pretty young woman is that the
- 30:43Speaker 2: problem here? Just asking I'll show you be the judge
- 30:47Speaker 2: I've talked before. How when Japan's Prime Minister Sanae ataki
- 30:51Speaker 2: Ichi came to Australia in May and gave Albanesi a
- 30:55Speaker 2: gift of a crown melon. By the way, there's a
- 30:57Speaker 2: very ceremonial President Pan You know, you give it to
- 31:02Speaker 2: the emperor. For instance, Albanizy on a podcast turned that
- 31:07Speaker 2: gesture into a sniggering joke at Tucky. She's expense complete
- 31:12Speaker 2: with hands juggling over the breast the area, which seemed
- 31:16Speaker 2: to me an attempt to part of an attempt to
- 31:19Speaker 2: impress a good looking young woman.
- 31:23Speaker 17: Something I got recently here that was pretty strange but
- 31:27Speaker 17: ended up being quite good was a melon. The Japanese
- 31:32Speaker 17: Prime minister brought a melon.
- 31:34Speaker 13: How did you get that through custom?
- 31:37Speaker 1: She it's a royal melon.
- 31:38Speaker 11: She smuggled it was a she she she smuggled it.
- 31:42Speaker 12: I don't know.
- 31:43Speaker 17: Oh, I got a couple of melons she brought too.
- 31:46Speaker 1: She brought too, as you do.
- 31:48Speaker 11: She just came in looking like Pamela r Anders.
- 31:50Speaker 9: She brought to.
- 31:54Speaker 2: That was just totally bizarre and low rent, which a
- 31:59Speaker 2: Japanese journalist Japan Times described as I said last night
- 32:02Speaker 2: as a joke that was beneath the Albanizi beerneath Australia.
- 32:06Speaker 2: But I've also mentioned that Albanizi also insulted Japan by
- 32:11Speaker 2: skipping a dinner at Parliament House last month to mark
- 32:14Speaker 2: the fiftieth anniversary of the Australia Japan Friendship and Cooperation Treaty.
- 32:18Speaker 2: Japan even said it's Foreign minister there. So where was
- 32:21Speaker 2: alban easy Well? Today The Australian reports that he was
- 32:26Speaker 2: in another room in the same Parliament House for a
- 32:30Speaker 2: Spotify event, for an event for the music streaming service.
- 32:35Speaker 2: We all know that albanize loves his music. There he
- 32:38Speaker 2: posed next to a Spotify starlet you know, and I
- 32:43Speaker 2: guess that too was part of his love of music.
- 32:48Speaker 2: Joining me earlier is Mike Newman, commentator, corporate advisor and
- 32:52Speaker 2: former New South Wales Senior Trader Commissioner to Japan and Korea.
- 32:56Speaker 2: And this is a man who's lived for many years
- 32:58Speaker 2: in Japan.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Make Newman thank you so much for your time.
- 33:02Speaker 2: Anthony Alberanezi has insulted Japan and it's Prime minister in
- 33:06Speaker 2: two ways. I'll get to the melons in a second.
- 33:10Speaker 2: But skipping at dinner at Parliament House mark the fiftieth
- 33:13Speaker 2: anniversary with the Australia Japan Friendship and Cooperation Treaty. I
- 33:16Speaker 2: know you were there, you said at the time, where's
- 33:19Speaker 2: Alban Easy, Well, we now know where he was. He
- 33:22Speaker 2: was in another room in Parliament for a Spotify event
- 33:27Speaker 2: and to meet a Spotify starlet. What does that say
- 33:30Speaker 2: to you.
- 33:32Speaker 9: Well, it's a question of priorities, Andrew.
- 33:35Speaker 18: I mean you would have thought that the fiftieth anniversary
- 33:37Speaker 18: of one of our most important trading partners, not only trading,
- 33:41Speaker 18: very strategic in a defense sense as well, to think
- 33:46Speaker 18: that substituting one for another. Now, he could have attended
- 33:49Speaker 18: the Spotify event, but at the same time, what he
- 33:51Speaker 18: should have done is shown himself at the fiftieth anniversary
- 33:55Speaker 18: of the Nara Treaty, which would have been far more
- 33:57Speaker 18: evaluated process.
- 33:59Speaker 9: But what I do think is happening here.
- 34:00Speaker 18: Is he's showing just how tinyed he is towards the
- 34:03Speaker 18: Japanese relationship, and the Spotify revelations have only added to
- 34:08Speaker 18: the insult that's already there.
- 34:11Speaker 2: I would have thought so too. It's quite extraordinary. Now
- 34:14Speaker 2: to the Melon's joke. You did warn some weeks ago
- 34:19Speaker 2: that this joke at the Japanese Prime Minister's expense would
- 34:25Speaker 2: not be forgotten and forgiven in Japan. We haven't heard
- 34:28Speaker 2: much reactions since, but you know, the Japanese aren't demonstrative
- 34:32Speaker 2: in that way. They take quiet note. But then I
- 34:36Speaker 2: was surprised to see a scathing piece in the Japan
- 34:40Speaker 2: Times last week by a Japanese commentator suggesting that you
- 34:46Speaker 2: were right. You know, it's certainly not forgotten or forgiven.
- 34:49Speaker 2: What did you make of that the strong language there
- 34:52Speaker 2: and what are the signs of you picked up from Japan?
- 34:57Speaker 18: Well, once again, do that article that was in the
- 35:02Speaker 18: Japan Times. I think it found its way into the
- 35:04Speaker 18: Australian as well, shows that there are some Japanese out
- 35:07Speaker 18: there who are actually quite concerned about the relationship and
- 35:10Speaker 18: quite frankly want to point out just how troubled the
- 35:14Speaker 18: relationship is. That something that I pointed out on your
- 35:16Speaker 18: so many times before. But I think what needs to
- 35:20Speaker 18: happen here is that there is a need for Australians
- 35:24Speaker 18: to understand that if we continue on like this, this
- 35:28Speaker 18: social ikido that the Japanese play so well will come
- 35:31Speaker 18: back to bitus. You can't make gratuitous jokes about melons
- 35:36Speaker 18: with references to the Prime Minister and then shot up
- 35:38Speaker 18: to a Spotify conference and then find your way into
- 35:40Speaker 18: the Japanese media, which probably took the better part of
- 35:42Speaker 18: three weeks to get in there. But the point is
- 35:45Speaker 18: is that now it is becoming more wide mainstream in Japan,
- 35:49Speaker 18: and I think that also sends such a terrible message
- 35:52Speaker 18: to Australian businesses trying to sort of do business with Japan.
- 35:57Speaker 2: And this of course comes amid Japan's concerns about Australia
- 36:02Speaker 2: as a reliable supplier of the gas that it very
- 36:06Speaker 2: desperately needs and ores as well. We haven't proven ourselves
- 36:12Speaker 2: that reliable in the sense of wanting to increase taxes
- 36:16Speaker 2: and royalties and blah blah all that kind of stuff.
- 36:19Speaker 2: So this is a real issue given all that. Should
- 36:23Speaker 2: Foreign Minister Penny Wog have apologized, either publicly or privately
- 36:28Speaker 2: to the Japanese Prime Minister.
- 36:31Speaker 18: Well, to be honest, an apology really won't do anything
- 36:35Speaker 18: as much as admit the guilt, and it to become
- 36:37Speaker 18: even more mainstream than all it is. And I don't
- 36:40Speaker 18: think it's a necessary matter that Minister Wong should hide it.
- 36:43Speaker 18: I think it just goes to show to the Japanese
- 36:46Speaker 18: at once again we have a government that does not
- 36:49Speaker 18: seem serious about our large, one of our largest and
- 36:52Speaker 18: most important trading relationships, and we continue to do more
- 36:56Speaker 18: and more of these what I would call juvenilantics. Certainly
- 37:00Speaker 18: I question the Department the departmental advice for suggesting that
- 37:05Speaker 18: he could substitute the Nara Treaty dinner for a Spotify event.
- 37:11Speaker 9: But really an apology from Minister one won't do anything.
- 37:15Speaker 18: As I said, it's been absorbed, received, it has not
- 37:18Speaker 18: been forgotten, and we really do have a long way
- 37:23Speaker 18: back to win the trust and get back to what
- 37:26Speaker 18: you were saying before about reliability and most importantly in
- 37:30Speaker 18: critical minerals and oil and coal and gas, that of predictability.
- 37:35Speaker 18: That's the most important thing that the Japanese want to
- 37:37Speaker 18: hear from us.
- 37:39Speaker 2: Sanataki Ichi, the Japanese Prime Minister. What kind of woman
- 37:43Speaker 2: issues You're just going to shrag it off? You can
- 37:45Speaker 2: see the joke, or is she someone that's a little
- 37:49Speaker 2: bit more substantial than someone you can deride as the
- 37:54Speaker 2: butt of a two melons joke.
- 37:57Speaker 9: She is a very resilient woman, that much.
- 38:00Speaker 18: She is pretty much the Maggie Thatcher of Japan very
- 38:06Speaker 18: much the iron Lady of Japan. And look, she doesn't
- 38:08Speaker 18: play up to the fact that she's a woman. She's
- 38:10Speaker 18: just a very, very capable leader. She's still extremely popular
- 38:13Speaker 18: in the polls, albeit she's had a mild come down
- 38:16Speaker 18: from almost stratospheric heights. But she is someone who will
- 38:22Speaker 18: just quietly note that. Remember she was the one that,
- 38:25Speaker 18: when you know, Japan was very much dominated by male politicians,
- 38:30Speaker 18: that she ended up staying back very late at night
- 38:33Speaker 18: studying the legislation to make sure she was on top
- 38:37Speaker 18: of that, rather than frequent gins of bars that she
- 38:40Speaker 18: was very much she's a stateswoman and she wants to
- 38:45Speaker 18: keep that going forward. And I think she probably knows
- 38:47Speaker 18: Japanese policy better than her own bureaucrats, so she will
- 38:52Speaker 18: lock that away. But be sure she will be even
- 38:55Speaker 18: harder the next time she comes to negotiate. And we've
- 38:58Speaker 18: done this to ourselves, and I think there is a
- 39:00Speaker 18: really good opportunity. Perhaps we will need a change of
- 39:03Speaker 18: government to do it, in order to restore the bilateral
- 39:06Speaker 18: to the way it once was, which was a far
- 39:09Speaker 18: better place than it's currently being left.
- 39:11Speaker 2: Marke Newman, thank you so much for your time, Thanks
- 39:14Speaker 2: Andrew after the break. Now One Nation add that I
- 39:19Speaker 2: think the Liberals could well learn from now. One Nation
- 39:26Speaker 2: might be a week on policy right now, which is
- 39:29Speaker 2: a worry, but no party is stronger on the way
- 39:32Speaker 2: it messages. For instance, Labor right now is running the
- 39:37Speaker 2: line that vote for the Liberals is a vote for
- 39:38Speaker 2: One Nation. Well, One Nation has given a right back
- 39:42Speaker 2: to Labor with Mustard hot English. There's a VI election
- 39:46Speaker 2: in the West Australia in West Australia at the end
- 39:48Speaker 2: of the month, and this is what One Nation candidate
- 39:51Speaker 2: Luke Herdigan has now put out and add that the
- 39:53Speaker 2: Liberals should study to learn how to fight back and hard.
- 39:58Speaker 19: Labor is referencing the Greens again. How can they justify
- 40:03Speaker 19: that the Greens official immigration policy is to abolish the
- 40:08Speaker 19: Department of Home Affairs and the Border Force. They want
- 40:11Speaker 19: to reach net zero in nine years, say goodbye to
- 40:15Speaker 19: every five er.
- 40:16Speaker 3: Job in WA if that happens.
- 40:18Speaker 19: They want to teach primary and secondary school kids about
- 40:22Speaker 19: diverse sexualities and LGBT issues. Sixteen candidates in this by election,
- 40:28Speaker 19: but this is the party that Labor are asking you
- 40:30Speaker 19: to preference. Really, let's get rid of this wop nonsense
- 40:33Speaker 19: and get back to common sense policy. Let's sink labor
- 40:37Speaker 19: in secret harbor.
- 40:40Speaker 3: Tuting me too.
- 40:41Speaker 2: It's a perfect panel to discuss this. Jim and Toon
- 40:43Speaker 2: Nini communications consultant, as well as journalists and Carolyndrusso, commentator
- 40:49Speaker 2: and president of the West Stream Liberals. Gemma, I mean,
- 40:53Speaker 2: you know, it is a great point. The vote for
- 40:54Speaker 2: the Greens is a vote for labor, and the vote
- 40:56Speaker 2: for labor as a vote for the Greens. How dare
- 40:59Speaker 2: they worry about Liberals preferencing one nation.
- 41:03Speaker 5: I think there's a couple of things I want to
- 41:05Speaker 5: point out about that ad and why in my view,
- 41:08Speaker 5: it's terrific. First of all, it's so organic, it's so authentic.
- 41:11Speaker 5: He's not particularly polished, but he's not super rough either.
- 41:13Speaker 5: He speaks like you and I. He's speaking as an
- 41:16Speaker 5: everyday person. You can imagine yourself having a beer with
- 41:19Speaker 5: him or in my case, a nice sparkling winter or water.
- 41:21Speaker 5: The second thing is he references five Fox jobs. If
- 41:24Speaker 5: you have spent more than thirty seconds in Western Australia
- 41:27Speaker 5: or transited in and out of the airport at any
- 41:29Speaker 5: point in time, you will know that five fil is
- 41:31Speaker 5: the lifeblood of that state, so talking about five Fox
- 41:34Speaker 5: jobs is absolutely genius thought for that campaign. And I
- 41:38Speaker 5: think thirdly, the only thing I would observe is don't
- 41:43Speaker 5: just call them labor and the Greens call them toxic
- 41:46Speaker 5: labor and the extremest Greens, because that's exactly what they are.
- 41:50Speaker 5: So I don't like giving advice to Free Andrew, as
- 41:52Speaker 5: you know, but I think this one gets a tick
- 41:54Speaker 5: for me. It's authentic, it cuts where it's supposed to cut.
- 41:57Speaker 5: But the whole thing about effective communication strategies. Who are
- 42:00Speaker 5: you talking to and what are you trying to say
- 42:02Speaker 5: to them? He's speaking directly to his electric in language
- 42:05Speaker 5: they understand and on topics that are impacting to them.
- 42:11Speaker 2: Well, this is a bit ORCS for you, Caroline. I mean,
- 42:14Speaker 2: you've got a liberal candle in the field. Tell me
- 42:17Speaker 2: how terrible that ad is.
- 42:20Speaker 20: No, I don't think the ad is terrible, but it's
- 42:23Speaker 20: also not necessarily new. And I think the point that
- 42:26Speaker 20: you make is really important, and it is important that
- 42:29Speaker 20: Labor explains why why they so closely work with and
- 42:33Speaker 20: preference the Greens, and particularly in Western Australia where the
- 42:36Speaker 20: Greens hold the balance of power in the Upper House,
- 42:38Speaker 20: which is incredibly important. But this point was made back
- 42:42Speaker 20: at the time of the twenty twenty five state election
- 42:45Speaker 20: when we did preference one Nation above the Greens and
- 42:48Speaker 20: everyone got in a hot ladder about it, and I
- 42:51Speaker 20: just put out a statement straight away that said, well,
- 42:53Speaker 20: if everyone has a problem with us preferencing the Greens,
- 42:55Speaker 20: Labor first needs to explain why. If everyone has an
- 42:59Speaker 20: issue with the Liberals preferencing one Nation, well Labor is
- 43:04Speaker 20: in government and they first need to explain why they
- 43:07Speaker 20: are preferencing the Greens. And that story was dead on
- 43:10Speaker 20: arrival and in the new cycle for less than twenty
- 43:13Speaker 20: four hours, which is absolutely what you need to do
- 43:16Speaker 20: with those sorts of stupid allegations that Labor makes. But
- 43:21Speaker 20: the point that is really important here and Gema's right
- 43:25Speaker 20: definitely about the five Fox jobs, but the single biggest
- 43:28Speaker 20: issue in Secret Harbor is the carn Up train station,
- 43:32Speaker 20: which Labor said that they would build ten years ago,
- 43:35Speaker 20: and it's only after the Lib said early on in
- 43:38Speaker 20: the campaign that we would in fact build it that
- 43:40Speaker 20: Labor quickly ran out last weekend and there's some great
- 43:43Speaker 20: footage there of the premiere the Treasurer and the labor
- 43:47Speaker 20: candidal running away from the media. It's really quite spectacular
- 43:50Speaker 20: where they have recommitted to that and that there is
- 43:54Speaker 20: actually the main issue down there. It's not immigration because
- 43:58Speaker 20: the state government can't fix immigration, and it's not necessarily
- 44:02Speaker 20: gender related issues. It is garden variety, economic, cost of
- 44:06Speaker 20: living and transport issues.
- 44:09Speaker 4: So the Liberals have done that and let's see what
- 44:15Speaker 4: that policy is.
- 44:18Speaker 3: Good.
- 44:19Speaker 2: Apologies to the rest of Austrey. But as long as
- 44:22Speaker 2: the voters in that seat in West Australia heard that,
- 44:25Speaker 2: this broadcast has been for good For Caroline Hey, listen
- 44:30Speaker 2: Albaniz's Women Problem Jemma, a good looking podcast interviews alban
- 44:36Speaker 2: Easy and is off making unbelievably bad jokes about the
- 44:41Speaker 2: breasts of Japan's Prime minister. And then you get a
- 44:45Speaker 2: good looking Spotify star Amy Shark at a Spotify function
- 44:49Speaker 2: and ALBINIZI decides to snub a big dinner to mark
- 44:52Speaker 2: a landmark friendship treaty with Japan. I mean, is there
- 44:56Speaker 2: another way of explaining this.
- 44:58Speaker 5: Yeah, I've never seen a bloke with more status anxiety
- 45:01Speaker 5: in my life. Like it's DJ Elbows strikes again. He's
- 45:04Speaker 5: he's the kid who never picked in high school and
- 45:06Speaker 5: has been spending the rest of his life making up
- 45:08Speaker 5: And I wish I was joking, but I'm not.
- 45:10Speaker 2: It is not no wait, wait to hold you up, No,
- 45:17Speaker 2: but photos of the young Albow.
- 45:19Speaker 3: He was pretty good looking. You know. He might not
- 45:21Speaker 3: guess it from now, but no, it was all right.
- 45:24Speaker 5: I've seen them. I've got eyes and I'm an objective judge.
- 45:26Speaker 2: Hard pass.
- 45:29Speaker 3: Okay, Caroline, what do you make of it?
- 45:32Speaker 2: It is really weird that he does tooblie, unbelievably stupid
- 45:37Speaker 2: and cress snubs of Japan, and both the events evolve,
- 45:43Speaker 2: you know, a young woman. I don't know whether it's
- 45:47Speaker 2: like status anxiety, eager to impress. I don't know what
- 45:50Speaker 2: it is, or just simply bad manners.
- 45:54Speaker 20: Or he's just crash and stupid. Like you said, the
- 45:57Speaker 20: fact of the matter is this bloke has never grown up.
- 46:00Speaker 20: He has never grown up. He is an overgrown student
- 46:03Speaker 20: activist who thinks something like that is more important than
- 46:10Speaker 20: a very close not only trading but also security strategic
- 46:14Speaker 20: relationship with Japan. And after the whole Melon's incident, you
- 46:18Speaker 20: would think that he would be on his best behavior
- 46:21Speaker 20: to try and do whatever he could to rectify that
- 46:26Speaker 20: situation or make some improvement whats something, just something Andrew,
- 46:31Speaker 20: But instead of doing that, he's just poured kerosene over
- 46:34Speaker 20: it and showed us all that he's just an immature child.
- 46:37Speaker 20: And like Jemma said, with total status anxiety, I'm actually
- 46:40Speaker 20: a bit embarrassed.
- 46:41Speaker 5: For He's actually embarrassing. He's not a serious leader. He's
- 46:44Speaker 5: not a serious person. He's not a serious leader. He
- 46:46Speaker 5: goes to a Spotify party, I mean eighteen, I can't.
- 46:51Speaker 2: Believe it, I know, but maybe a nice smagas board
- 46:57Speaker 2: was made out for him Swedish.
- 46:59Speaker 3: I don't know. I really don't know.
- 47:02Speaker 2: By the way, I've got to show this, I mean Russia,
- 47:05Speaker 2: I mean it's a war criminal regime.
- 47:08Speaker 3: Now I've lost.
- 47:09Speaker 2: All faith in the concept of Russian civilization, I've got
- 47:12Speaker 2: to say. But you know, the sheer brutality of this leadership,
- 47:16Speaker 2: the war criminal mindset. Having a drone now chase a
- 47:20Speaker 2: street vendor around his greengrossers stand before trying to blow
- 47:25Speaker 2: him up injuring him. Remember, these drones have got first
- 47:29Speaker 2: person view, Like there's a driver of the drone chasing
- 47:33Speaker 2: a civilian around, blowing him up. Luckily, he wasn't killed concussion, shrapnel, wounds, etc.
- 47:39Speaker 2: But what does this show, Jemmy, what do you reckon?
- 47:42Speaker 3: It shows?
- 47:42Speaker 5: It shows a couple of things. It shows absolutely insanity
- 47:46Speaker 5: of that conflict and how long it's been allowed to
- 47:48Speaker 5: be drawn out for and how the world just lets
- 47:52Speaker 5: it go, just lets it go, as if it's like
- 47:54Speaker 5: a constant reel in the background and there are no
- 47:57Speaker 5: Jews and so there are no news. If this was
- 48:00Speaker 5: there's no Net and Yahoo to blame, there is an
- 48:01Speaker 5: Israel to hate. So this conflict.
- 48:05Speaker 14: People just let it go.
- 48:06Speaker 5: The United Nations just lets it go. There are no
- 48:08Speaker 5: campaign protests, there's no boycotts, there's no free Ukraine, there's
- 48:12Speaker 5: no any of that. It is absolutely evil and such
- 48:16Speaker 5: a reflection of the global community's moral bankruptcy and abject
- 48:21Speaker 5: failure to do anything other than serve themselves and feed
- 48:24Speaker 5: the rives of anti Semitism.
- 48:26Speaker 13: More broadly, Yeah.
- 48:29Speaker 3: Thank you very much. Seven Toonina Karland Ussa. Thank you
- 48:32Speaker 3: very much to you both.
- 48:33Speaker 2: And for people saying, oh, yes, but Ukrainian drone blew
- 48:37Speaker 2: up several people on the beach in Russia over the weekend,
- 48:41Speaker 2: Well that was a drone that was intercepted by electronic warfare.
- 48:44Speaker 2: They were hoping to blow up sand right. That was
- 48:48Speaker 2: just a mistake. This was deliberate. Jemmy Antonia said goodbye
- 48:53Speaker 2: to her and to Caroline. So I'll say hello to
- 48:56Speaker 2: Sharry Marxon, but for me, goodnight,
