- 0:02Speaker 1: On scorn lids Australia.
- 0:05Speaker 2: This is the Reader Panalty Show.
- 0:08Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panety Show. Coming
- 0:11Speaker 3: up tonight. The Albanezi government accused of artificially inflating its
- 0:15Speaker 3: defense spending figures to appease the US. My panel would
- 0:19Speaker 3: join me to discuss that and the day's other top headlines.
- 0:23Speaker 3: More fear mongering from the left about Australia's gas decline.
- 0:26Speaker 3: Professor n Plimer has some.
- 0:29Speaker 4: Thoughts on that.
- 0:30Speaker 3: Kosher Gaida will have the latest from the US and
- 0:33Speaker 3: will take a thorough look into the shocking case of
- 0:36Speaker 3: Henry Novak and two tier policing in the UK, and
- 0:41Speaker 3: more political violence from the left. I'll get Alex Stein's
- 0:45Speaker 3: reaction to that later in the program. And Left Is
- 0:48Speaker 3: Losing It features an American hating anchor feeling a deep
- 0:53Speaker 3: on ease about the country's looming two hundred and fifty
- 0:56Speaker 3: year anniversary.
- 0:58Speaker 5: I feel a deep un ease about these celebrations to
- 1:01Speaker 5: which I am invited to mark the two hundred and
- 1:03Speaker 5: fiftieth anniversary of our so called democracy.
- 1:07Speaker 3: But first Labor has been forced to admit to a
- 1:10Speaker 3: major error in key figures used to justify its budget
- 1:14Speaker 3: tax package. The Daily Telegraph reports the correction over its
- 1:18Speaker 3: seventy seven billion dollar capital gains tax and negative gearing
- 1:22Speaker 3: tax grab comes after Treasury understated the benefit of the
- 1:27Speaker 3: current system for average workers by nearly half. Treasury Secretary
- 1:32Speaker 3: Jenny Wilkinson claimed in a speech to economists that new
- 1:35Speaker 3: modeling showed the median income earner benefited to the tune
- 1:39Speaker 3: of around seven hundred dollars over their working lives.
- 1:43Speaker 4: But that is wildly inaccurate.
- 1:45Speaker 3: The modeling actually showed the existing system has provided a
- 1:49Speaker 3: much bigger ten thousand, two hundred dollar benefit for the
- 1:52Speaker 3: average worker. Joining me now for more on this is
- 1:55Speaker 3: NEWSCORPS senior writer Patrick Carline and Institute of Public Affairs
- 1:59Speaker 3: Research bellow Colleen Harken. Patrick, it's just as well we've
- 2:03Speaker 3: got our best and brightest on the job here. I mean,
- 2:06Speaker 3: how do you get figures that are almost fifty percent out?
- 2:11Speaker 6: Look, it's very unfortunate, that's the kindest way of putting it.
- 2:14Speaker 6: And the fact we're.
- 2:14Speaker 3: Still one hundred percent out. I need to work on
- 2:16Speaker 3: my percentages. One hundred percent don't work at Treasury.
- 2:20Speaker 4: I think that.
- 2:21Speaker 3: Qualifies me for a job of Treasury in voicecoming.
- 2:25Speaker 6: Look, this is very unfortunate, and the fact that it
- 2:27Speaker 6: was made almost three weeks after the budget was delivered,
- 2:31Speaker 6: we're still talking about this stuff. Everybody hates it, and
- 2:34Speaker 6: the fact that it actually helps the political spin that
- 2:38Speaker 6: Jim Charmas has been trying to sell very unsuccessfully, I
- 2:43Speaker 6: should point out it's very unfortunate. I mean, Treasury, it's
- 2:46Speaker 6: got sixteen hundred people working there. How can you make
- 2:48Speaker 6: a blue like this that serves a political sort of
- 2:52Speaker 6: agenda At the same time.
- 2:54Speaker 3: And Colleen, we talk a lot about how little private
- 2:57Speaker 3: sector experience the Albeneasy government has, particularly in its senior rags,
- 3:02Speaker 3: But how little business experience do the bureaucracy have, the
- 3:06Speaker 3: permanent bureaucracy in Cambro who really run the show?
- 3:10Speaker 1: Yeah, well in very few of the bureaucrats ever have
- 3:14Speaker 1: private enterprise experience. But I mean, this is the most
- 3:17Speaker 1: significant and controversial change to a tax package for decades.
- 3:21Speaker 1: You would think that you would cross your te's and
- 3:23Speaker 1: dot your eyes before you released it, and the fact
- 3:26Speaker 1: that they haven't. And the one number that supports the
- 3:28Speaker 1: government's narrative is the only number that they got wrong.
- 3:32Speaker 1: Like it does ring question bells about you know, how.
- 3:34Speaker 3: To say you saying it's not ineptitude, Well, there is deliberate.
- 3:39Speaker 1: It's definitely a question mark over that. And they didn't
- 3:41Speaker 1: publicly come out and fesce up to it. It took
- 3:44Speaker 1: a journalist to discover it true. And you know, this
- 3:48Speaker 1: sort of scenario, it just undermines public confidence. The further
- 3:52Speaker 1: issue to this budget scenario, in this piece of the
- 3:55Speaker 1: legislation is that there are nine ministerial determinations, which means
- 3:59Speaker 1: if they want to pass the legislation and then designed
- 4:02Speaker 1: the details of it later, there is nothing about this
- 4:04Speaker 1: is that is okay for people to understand about what
- 4:07Speaker 1: they're supposed to be signing up for, how it's going
- 4:09Speaker 1: to work, how theyre going to run their businesses, how
- 4:11Speaker 1: they're going to run their lives. You know, it's our page.
- 4:14Speaker 3: Is alarming because this budget has been wildly unpopular and
- 4:19Speaker 3: that's the detail we are aware of. So what detail
- 4:22Speaker 3: are they leaving to ministerial discretion which they haven't made clear?
- 4:28Speaker 3: I mean now Treasurer Jim Chalmers has deflected criticism that
- 4:34Speaker 3: he's cracked down on negative gearing and capital gains tax
- 4:36Speaker 3: was contributing to weaker auction results and lower property prices.
- 4:41Speaker 3: Speaking about the decline of auction clearance rates, Jim Chalmers said,
- 4:46Speaker 3: if we are making it easier for first time buyers
- 4:48Speaker 3: to get a fair crack at auctions, then that's a
- 4:51Speaker 3: good thing, Patrick, a good thing. That's something an economically
- 4:56Speaker 3: illiterate person would say. The strength of the housing mark
- 5:00Speaker 3: market is critical to Australia's economy and for most Australians,
- 5:05Speaker 3: most households, their house is their biggest asset. So if
- 5:09Speaker 3: that's declining in value, that's not a good thing.
- 5:12Speaker 6: Look, the only reason you want property pricess to come
- 5:15Speaker 6: down is if there's more housing supply, and there's nothing
- 5:18Speaker 6: in this budget that's going to stimulate housing supply. You've
- 5:21Speaker 6: got confusion, you've got three interest rates recently, there's probably
- 5:25Speaker 6: going to be more, and you've got people thinking should
- 5:27Speaker 6: I buy a house, should I sell a house? Will
- 5:30Speaker 6: it be worth ten percent less than in twelve months time.
- 5:32Speaker 6: I mean, there is so much uncertainty and the budget
- 5:35Speaker 6: has brought a lot of that uncertainty.
- 5:37Speaker 3: Colleen Morgan Stanley last week said it's likely we could
- 5:41Speaker 3: see a five to ten percent drop in national prices,
- 5:45Speaker 3: and that's bad news for first home buyers who purchased
- 5:48Speaker 3: properties using the Albanesi government's five percent deposit scheme. Their
- 5:52Speaker 3: homes Colleen could be worth less than what they owe
- 5:56Speaker 3: the bank. That is a disaster first home buyers, for
- 6:01Speaker 3: anybody really, but particularly if you're just starting out to
- 6:04Speaker 3: be owing hundreds of thousands of dollars and not even
- 6:08Speaker 3: being able to sell that property to pay off your debt,
- 6:10Speaker 3: being in negative equity.
- 6:12Speaker 1: Yeah, and the sixty six percent of Australians own a home,
- 6:16Speaker 1: and as you said, most of their equity and their
- 6:18Speaker 1: financial security security is in that home. And for the
- 6:22Speaker 1: treasurer to stand there, unfold his arms and say, it's
- 6:24Speaker 1: a good thing that all of your hard work and
- 6:26Speaker 1: the decades of effort that it's taken to have that
- 6:29Speaker 1: equity in your home, it's a good thing that it
- 6:31Speaker 1: is now decreasing.
- 6:33Speaker 7: You know.
- 6:34Speaker 1: It is no wonder that people sort of say, he
- 6:35Speaker 1: doesn't understand how the economy works, and it doesn't understand
- 6:39Speaker 1: how what people want and how they're aspiring to be
- 6:41Speaker 1: independent and financially secure. Those poor people who went in
- 6:45Speaker 1: on a five percent deposit under the government's you know,
- 6:49Speaker 1: encouraging them to do that. It was never a great
- 6:52Speaker 1: idea at the time because the margins are so tight
- 6:55Speaker 1: when you're in that situation, so you know they are
- 6:59Speaker 1: in the worst situation of having negative equity. The other
- 7:02Speaker 1: thing that he hasn't taken into account is when the
- 7:04Speaker 1: market is down, people tend not to sell, so it's
- 7:07Speaker 1: not going to free up the real estate that he's
- 7:10Speaker 1: assuming that it will. And the only people who do
- 7:12Speaker 1: sell in that time is people who have to because
- 7:15Speaker 1: they're under pressure and they're worse off than they were before,
- 7:18Speaker 1: and again that's another disaster. The last thing you want
- 7:21Speaker 1: to have is people selling because they are fearful that
- 7:25Speaker 1: the bank is going to take over, and that selling
- 7:29Speaker 1: due to economic stress is not the sign of a
- 7:32Speaker 1: healthy economy. Now, the Albertizi government has been accused of
- 7:36Speaker 1: artificially inflating its defense spending figures to appease the US.
- 7:40Speaker 1: Figures provided to the Australian newspaper following a freedom of
- 7:44Speaker 1: information request show the government is including in its headlined
- 7:48Speaker 1: defense spending figure things like two point eight billion dollars
- 7:52Speaker 1: in defined benefit military superanuation entitlements, ten point three billion
- 7:57Speaker 1: dollars in veterans' welfare payments, two point one billion dollars
- 8:01Speaker 1: in Intelligence agency funding, and sixty three million dollars for
- 8:05Speaker 1: the Defense Housing Agency, Colleen. A lot of this is
- 8:10Speaker 1: essentially welfare payments presented as defense spending. Yeah, and we're
- 8:15Speaker 1: not in NATO, so they're using the excuse to say
- 8:18Speaker 1: this is how NATO does their budgets. But we're not
- 8:21Speaker 1: in NATO. And for decades we have done a comparison
- 8:24Speaker 1: of our own budgets compared to our own previous budgets.
- 8:27Speaker 4: We've always compared ourselves.
- 8:29Speaker 1: At around two percent, and the argument has been that
- 8:31Speaker 1: it should increase to three percent. So if they want
- 8:33Speaker 1: to play with the figures like that, then let's have
- 8:35Speaker 1: the proper argument, say let's just take it to four percent,
- 8:38Speaker 1: because welfare has never been included in our previous budgets.
- 8:42Speaker 3: I can't imagine the US being terribly pleased with this
- 8:46Speaker 3: sort of revelation because I wonder whether they were transparent
- 8:50Speaker 3: with our greatest ally about how they were doing their calculations.
- 8:54Speaker 6: Well, they weren't transparent with anyone, were there. I mean,
- 8:57Speaker 6: somebody called this. Somebody called this cooking the books, and
- 9:00Speaker 6: that's what it is, it really is. We're going to
- 9:02Speaker 6: include welfare for veterans. I think most Australians are for
- 9:06Speaker 6: welfare for veterans. But it's not making Australia any safer
- 9:09Speaker 6: when it comes to defense, is it. I mean, it
- 9:11Speaker 6: really is just cooking the books.
- 9:13Speaker 3: It is, And it's like, who are you fooling here?
- 9:16Speaker 3: You're fooling voters above everything everyone else. Now, we spoke
- 9:21Speaker 3: yesterday about new polling showing One Nation surging ahead of
- 9:25Speaker 3: Labor to be the most popular political party in the country. Well,
- 9:29Speaker 3: senior Labor figures don't think this movement is permanent, one
- 9:34Speaker 3: anonymous government source to all the Australian Financial Review. People
- 9:38Speaker 3: now aren't really voting for one nation. They're voting against
- 9:42Speaker 3: the system, Collen. Why would they think that sentiment will change.
- 9:47Speaker 3: Why are they going to suddenly start loving the system
- 9:50Speaker 3: before the next election.
- 9:51Speaker 1: It's extraordinary that both of the major parties still don't
- 9:54Speaker 1: seem to understand the voter sentiment. They still don't They
- 9:58Speaker 1: still seem to think that they own this space and
- 10:00Speaker 1: that people will come back to them. They don't understand
- 10:03Speaker 1: that what they've created, this large sway that people who
- 10:06Speaker 1: have had enough for various reasons, and at its absolute best,
- 10:11Speaker 1: they've created swinging voters, and at it's worse, they've created
- 10:14Speaker 1: people who will never go back to the major parties.
- 10:17Speaker 1: So they just don't seem to still be acknowledging what
- 10:19Speaker 1: the issues are and if they're ever going to have
- 10:22Speaker 1: high relevance again, what they need to do.
- 10:25Speaker 3: And Patrick, I think the polling that we've seen in
- 10:28Speaker 3: recent months it's also has a psychological impact because people
- 10:33Speaker 3: who perhaps liked one nation but thought, oh well, they're
- 10:35Speaker 3: you know, five six percent, I'm an outlier if I
- 10:39Speaker 3: support them. Now they're the most popular political party according
- 10:43Speaker 3: to the Australian Financial Reviews owned polling this week, So
- 10:46Speaker 3: it really gives people a license to actually say what
- 10:49Speaker 3: they think about this issue.
- 10:51Speaker 6: Pauling Hanson is legitimate now. For twenty nine years. In
- 10:54Speaker 6: the past twenty nine years she was continued sort of slightly.
- 10:57Speaker 3: Marginal amongst the media and political class. She wasn't legitimate,
- 11:02Speaker 3: but I think probably still isn't. They probably still see
- 11:07Speaker 3: her as an outsider. But the figures aren't wrong. I
- 11:11Speaker 3: mean Cole after the poll and her own personal popularity popularity,
- 11:16Speaker 3: Patrick is well above Angus Taylor, an even bigger margin
- 11:22Speaker 3: with the Prime Minister.
- 11:23Speaker 6: Look, you encounter people now who actually say only to
- 11:26Speaker 6: one nation, there's nothing there's no shame in that anymore,
- 11:29Speaker 6: and that has been validated as a choice. Now it's
- 11:32Speaker 6: coming about really quickly. I mean we're sort of following
- 11:35Speaker 6: what's happened in England as well. But it is people
- 11:38Speaker 6: who have struggled with cost of living, who were as
- 11:41Speaker 6: sick of the system. They've tried hard, they've worked hard,
- 11:45Speaker 6: and they're not getting your head. And the major parties,
- 11:47Speaker 6: as Colleen said, just don't seem to recognize that sentiment
- 11:50Speaker 6: at all. And it really has grown.
- 11:51Speaker 4: Really quickly, Colleen, It's incredible.
- 11:54Speaker 3: I don't think enough has been said about the achievement
- 11:57Speaker 3: here from Pauline Hansen. A year ago the party was
- 12:01Speaker 3: polling around six percent. It's now outpolling Labor, which won
- 12:06Speaker 3: an election in a landslide thirteen months ago. I mean,
- 12:10Speaker 3: the turnaround the political realignment in this country is extraordinary and.
- 12:16Speaker 1: I think the critical thing to remember here is that
- 12:19Speaker 1: one nation hasn't changed. Pauline Hanson has always said the
- 12:22Speaker 1: same thing for decades and that what has happened is
- 12:26Speaker 1: that Australia has changed, Australia has become a different place,
- 12:30Speaker 1: and that all of those things, or many of the
- 12:32Speaker 1: things that she was warning about. For a long time,
- 12:34Speaker 1: people thought, wow, that's probably either not an issue, or
- 12:37Speaker 1: that will never happen here, or they were quite dismissive
- 12:39Speaker 1: of it. But Australia has changed and changed quite dramatically,
- 12:43Speaker 1: and most especially since Bondai, and I think people have
- 12:46Speaker 1: kind of realized that we do have to stand up
- 12:50Speaker 1: for who we are as a nation and what our
- 12:51Speaker 1: values are, and she is the only person who has
- 12:54Speaker 1: consistently championed that cause for decades.
- 12:57Speaker 3: It's the consistency, it's the authentic city, and it is
- 13:01Speaker 3: those values issues. The Prime Minister calls them culture wars,
- 13:05Speaker 3: but they're actually fairly significant issues that people care about.
- 13:09Speaker 3: And even people who are not engaged in politics wouldn't
- 13:14Speaker 3: take much notice of the budget. They care about this
- 13:17Speaker 3: sort of things because it impacts their kids, it impacts
- 13:20Speaker 3: their workplaces. Now, this story only in Victoria. A fourteen
- 13:24Speaker 3: year old Melbourne girl who had one hundred and nine
- 13:27Speaker 3: serious charges dropped while she was back before a children's court.
- 13:31Speaker 4: Surprise surprise.
- 13:32Speaker 3: Just two weeks later, News dot com dot Au has revealed.
- 13:35Speaker 3: The fourteen year old is facing three counts of aggravated burglary,
- 13:39Speaker 3: two counts of theft of a motor vehicle, and an
- 13:43Speaker 3: unlicensed driving charge. One of the girl's family members is
- 13:46Speaker 3: also facing serious charges, including aggravated burglary, resisting an emergency worker, burglary,
- 13:53Speaker 3: theft of.
- 13:53Speaker 4: A motor vehicle, and unlawful assault.
- 13:56Speaker 3: Now Patrick, this teenager had all the charges again ends
- 14:00Speaker 3: to drop because of her tender age. This suggestion that
- 14:04Speaker 3: someone who is between ten and fourteen years of age
- 14:08Speaker 3: doesn't understand the seriousness of their offending, despite the fact
- 14:12Speaker 3: that she googled how long the sentence is for running
- 14:17Speaker 3: someone over. A few minutes after she allegedly ran someone
- 14:21Speaker 3: over look, she.
- 14:21Speaker 6: Was accused of knocking a cyclist off his bike. He
- 14:24Speaker 6: had a blood bleed, he could have died. She got
- 14:28Speaker 6: charged with one hundred and nine offenses. They all got
- 14:30Speaker 6: struck out. She's back in court two weeks later. That
- 14:34Speaker 6: rule doesn't work for some ten to fourteen year olds
- 14:36Speaker 6: who are really bad eggs. This looks like one of
- 14:40Speaker 6: the bad eggs we need to be protected from. Bad
- 14:43Speaker 6: eggs keep on committing violent crimes. I mean, I think
- 14:46Speaker 6: she was back in court for three counts of aggravated burglary.
- 14:49Speaker 6: That's not still a Mars bar from seven to eleven.
- 14:54Speaker 6: That's violent. We need to be protected from people like this,
- 14:57Speaker 6: no matter what Asha.
- 14:58Speaker 3: Are, Absolutely and Colleen, I've got a feeling this is
- 15:01Speaker 3: going to end in tragedy.
- 15:04Speaker 4: It's headed that way.
- 15:06Speaker 3: And the politicians, the judicial system has some complicity in that.
- 15:12Speaker 1: Most definitely this dolly incapacit that they say that they're
- 15:16Speaker 1: not responsible for their actions. I mean, it has to change.
- 15:19Speaker 1: That particular girl. As Patrick, you said, one hundred and
- 15:21Speaker 1: nine allegations, there was another chap we had three hundred
- 15:25Speaker 1: and thirty eight charges dropped against him. Sixty percent of carjackings,
- 15:31Speaker 1: half of the home invasions, and twenty two thirds of
- 15:34Speaker 1: robberies are done by miners in our state, and they
- 15:38Speaker 1: just it's a revolving door. They get in, they get you,
- 15:41Speaker 1: let that back out again and do the same thing
- 15:43Speaker 1: again like this girl has done. They have to get
- 15:45Speaker 1: serious about youth crime, and.
- 15:46Speaker 3: We've seen with the hospitality terrorism in this city. They
- 15:51Speaker 3: use youth offenders because they know they will be released,
- 15:55Speaker 3: They will be bailed almost immediately, and even when they
- 15:58Speaker 3: admit to arson has caused millions in damage as happened
- 16:02Speaker 3: recently in this city.
- 16:04Speaker 4: They walked free from court.
- 16:06Speaker 3: So that's the justice system in Victoria.
- 16:09Speaker 4: Colin Harkin, Patrick Carline, thank you for your time. You're
- 16:12Speaker 4: welcome now.
- 16:13Speaker 3: Friends at the Guardian who have an entire section on
- 16:16Speaker 3: their website devoted to the climate crisis, that had an
- 16:20Speaker 3: interesting report about gas use in Australia. They say, after
- 16:24Speaker 3: more than at half a century of growth, the use
- 16:26Speaker 3: of gas in Australia has peaked in all sectors and
- 16:30Speaker 3: entered a structural decline. This is according to the Gratten Institute.
- 16:34Speaker 3: But the leftist think tank is warning the government they
- 16:38Speaker 3: need to acknowledge this decline and implement further policies to
- 16:42Speaker 3: reduce gas use to meet net zero targets.
- 16:46Speaker 4: Let's bring in a steam geologists.
- 16:48Speaker 3: Author and executive director at Hancock Energy Professor Ian plymer Ian,
- 16:53Speaker 3: is gas use in structural decline in Australia and has
- 16:56Speaker 3: that happened organically?
- 17:00Speaker 8: What does instructural decline is actually expiation and that's because
- 17:04Speaker 8: of the massive amount of red tape, green tape, black
- 17:08Speaker 8: tape and blue tape from the UN that explorationists have
- 17:12Speaker 8: to put up with now that has slowed down the
- 17:16Speaker 8: production of new gas. There are stacks of gas around.
- 17:20Speaker 8: The writer of this, Graham Redfern, should know he's a Queenslander.
- 17:24Speaker 8: He should know something about Queensland gas. There's a huge
- 17:28Speaker 8: amount of gas in Queensland and it is in effect
- 17:31Speaker 8: a battery, a battery that we turn on every time
- 17:35Speaker 8: the sun doesn't shine or the wind doesn't blow, and
- 17:38Speaker 8: we just put it into a turbine and get the
- 17:40Speaker 8: energy we need. We also need gas to eat. If
- 17:44Speaker 8: we don't have gas, we can't make fertilizes. If we
- 17:46Speaker 8: don't have fertilisers, we don't have enough food. So yet
- 17:49Speaker 8: again as writers are demonstrating their ignorance, it's quite normal.
- 17:54Speaker 8: We're used to it now.
- 17:55Speaker 3: In the Grad Institute warns that gas use must fall
- 17:59Speaker 3: fast climate targets. What would be the impact on the
- 18:03Speaker 3: Australian economy if that were to happen? And you said
- 18:06Speaker 3: we've got stacks of gas?
- 18:08Speaker 4: Just how much do we have? What are the reserves?
- 18:11Speaker 3: Are we talking about decades or hundreds of years?
- 18:14Speaker 8: We have a lot of gas, and once we produce gas,
- 18:17Speaker 8: it is stored in pipelines. We have a lot of
- 18:20Speaker 8: gas that's underground, and most wells last for about twenty
- 18:24Speaker 8: five years, so we have decades of gas. That is
- 18:28Speaker 8: just a scare campaign. And if the Gratin Institute wants
- 18:31Speaker 8: to reduce the amount of gas, I want to see
- 18:33Speaker 8: those in the Gratin Institute decrease the amount of food
- 18:37Speaker 8: they eat. I want them to turn the heating off.
- 18:39Speaker 8: I don't want them to use gas for cooking. I
- 18:42Speaker 8: don't want them to use any plastics. This is what
- 18:44Speaker 8: we use gas for. These people are demonstrating that they're
- 18:48Speaker 8: ideologues and they're not concerned about how much the average
- 18:52Speaker 8: person relies on having fossil fuels to actually have the
- 18:57Speaker 8: standard of living we've got in Australia.
- 19:01Speaker 4: Now.
- 19:01Speaker 3: Snowy Hydro two point zero is estimated to cost taxpayers
- 19:05Speaker 3: about forty two billion dollars, which is more than twenty
- 19:08Speaker 3: times the two billion originally forecasts in twenty seventeen. Former
- 19:13Speaker 3: Snowy Hydro Ceopaul Broad has accused the labor of trying
- 19:17Speaker 3: to blame the cost blowout on the previous coalition government
- 19:20Speaker 3: have listened to this.
- 19:21Speaker 9: When the government came in and Chris Bohm became the
- 19:24Speaker 9: Energy Minister, he was held bent. I think of knocking
- 19:27Speaker 9: me over and rewriting history. He wanted me to go
- 19:30Speaker 9: out and bad angus and make all the problem his.
- 19:33Speaker 3: And this project seems to have been a disaster from
- 19:37Speaker 3: day one. We're now looking at forty billion plus.
- 19:42Speaker 4: Is it going to be worth it?
- 19:44Speaker 8: Well, the first thing is that it was mister Bowen
- 19:47Speaker 8: who changed the contracts from fixed cost to costs plus,
- 19:52Speaker 8: and that means that if you want money or have
- 19:55Speaker 8: an overrun, it doesn't matter you as a contractor still
- 19:58Speaker 8: stay alive. Now we have a lot of construction contractors
- 20:01Speaker 8: have gone out backwards, and this contract was absolutely perfect
- 20:07Speaker 8: for those who want to actually run up the costs
- 20:10Speaker 8: and skin us alive. So it's really bad value for money.
- 20:13Speaker 8: The best thing we could do would be to stop
- 20:15Speaker 8: it and stop it now and use that money to
- 20:19Speaker 8: build these high energy, low emissions coal fired stations all
- 20:24Speaker 8: through the areas where we have a lot of good
- 20:25Speaker 8: quality coal, such as in the Bowen Basin and the
- 20:28Speaker 8: Hunter Basin. So this is madness which has been continued
- 20:33Speaker 8: by various governments. Mister Bowen should be ashamed that he
- 20:38Speaker 8: actually hasn't said no, we're going to kill this off.
- 20:43Speaker 3: So you would kill this project despite the fact that
- 20:45Speaker 3: it's already cost us billions. Wouldn't it be better to
- 20:48Speaker 3: complete it and get some benefit from it.
- 20:52Speaker 8: Once it's complete, we then have to spend more money
- 20:55Speaker 8: for poles and wires. We then have to spend more
- 20:58Speaker 8: money reliable electricity. With unreliable electricity, it's a dead duck.
- 21:05Speaker 8: And what do you do with the dead duck is
- 21:07Speaker 8: you bury it? And this is going to be buried
- 21:09Speaker 8: really quickly.
- 21:12Speaker 4: Do you think a coalition government would do that?
- 21:15Speaker 3: Will they have the courage to dump a project like this,
- 21:18Speaker 3: because at the end of the day, this was started
- 21:21Speaker 3: by a coalition government led by Malcolm Turnbull.
- 21:24Speaker 8: Well, I'm not social Malcolm Turnbull represents any past or
- 21:27Speaker 8: future coalition. And the second thing is that they have
- 21:31Speaker 8: to have the cahunas to do it. I'm not so
- 21:33Speaker 8: sure they do. And the third thing is that when
- 21:38Speaker 8: you invest money, at times you make losses, but you
- 21:41Speaker 8: have to make sure that your profits outweigh your losses.
- 21:43Speaker 8: The quickest way to make a profit in this country
- 21:46Speaker 8: is to start having nuclear power and to go back
- 21:50Speaker 8: to having our cheap power that we once had and
- 21:53Speaker 8: that was reliable and that was coal, be it brown
- 21:55Speaker 8: colon Victoria or be a black cole in New South
- 21:58Speaker 8: Wales and Queensland.
- 22:00Speaker 3: Professor in Plymer, thank you so much for your time.
- 22:03Speaker 3: Coming up, Lefties Losing It and we'll take a thorough
- 22:07Speaker 3: look into the shocking case of Henry Novak and two
- 22:11Speaker 3: tier policing in the UK.
- 22:13Speaker 4: Kosha Gata is up next.
- 22:24Speaker 3: You're watching the Reader Panahy Show and it's time for
- 22:27Speaker 3: Lefties Losing It. Let's start with a reminder that the
- 22:31Speaker 3: leftist media doesn't just hate you. They hate Western civilization
- 22:36Speaker 3: and above all, they hate America.
- 22:39Speaker 4: Here is MS NOW anchor Ali Velshi.
- 22:42Speaker 5: In one month, America will mark the two hundred and
- 22:44Speaker 5: fiftieth anniversary of its founding. Like previous anniversaries, there is
- 22:48Speaker 5: a deep.
- 22:49Speaker 4: Unease about this.
- 22:50Speaker 8: I feel a.
- 22:51Speaker 5: Deep unease about these celebrations to which I am invited
- 22:54Speaker 5: to mark the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of our
- 22:57Speaker 5: so called democracy.
- 22:59Speaker 4: So called democracy.
- 23:00Speaker 3: You know what, I feel a deep unease about people
- 23:04Speaker 3: like him becoming American citizens. He only became an American
- 23:07Speaker 3: citizen ten and eleven years ago. Now it's June and
- 23:11Speaker 3: that means it's Pride month. Yes, a whole month devoted
- 23:15Speaker 3: to the LGBTQIA plus plus TSL plus community.
- 23:20Speaker 4: It's hard to keep up.
- 23:21Speaker 3: Here is British broadcaster Julia Hartley Brewer trying to explain
- 23:26Speaker 3: facts on biology to an LGBTQIA plus plus.
- 23:30Speaker 10: Activist, saying that trans women to women is factually biological,
- 23:35Speaker 10: provably scientifically trans women. By definition of trans identified men,
- 23:40Speaker 10: they are men.
- 23:41Speaker 4: They are not women. They're not women.
- 23:44Speaker 1: They're not and the Supreme court Room was incorrect.
- 23:46Speaker 3: Now, most sane folk think a month devoted to this
- 23:50Speaker 3: movement is a little absurd, particularly when veterans who risk
- 23:54Speaker 3: their lives for their country get one day, but not
- 23:57Speaker 3: j Lo. Jlo thinks one month is early enough.
- 24:01Speaker 1: Hey, beautiful people, it's Jennifer Lopez, star of Office Romance,
- 24:04Speaker 1: and I am.
- 24:04Speaker 4: Here to wish you a very happy Pride Month.
- 24:07Speaker 11: Let's be honest, you deserve all twelve months of the year,
- 24:10Speaker 11: so make sure this one is.
- 24:11Speaker 4: Extra extra special.
- 24:14Speaker 3: In fact, you officially have permission to skip work.
- 24:17Speaker 4: Just tell your boss. Jennifer Lopez said, it was okay, okay,
- 24:22Speaker 4: Now to the deliriously dim.
- 24:24Speaker 3: Witted ladies of the view and here will be Goldberg
- 24:27Speaker 3: blames who else but Donald Trump for ebola outbreaks in Africa.
- 24:32Speaker 4: He's doing all of this. People are dying all over
- 24:35Speaker 4: the world.
- 24:36Speaker 12: Correct, Oh yeah, this ebola thing is something of USA idea.
- 24:42Speaker 4: Also, That's what I'm talking about.
- 24:46Speaker 13: When I look at all of the stuff that's happening
- 24:48Speaker 13: around the world, I think to myself, what are you doing?
- 24:52Speaker 4: What's he doing?
- 24:53Speaker 3: I think he's being president of the United States, you
- 24:56Speaker 3: know that whole America First strategy. Now here is more
- 25:00Speaker 3: content from the view. This is transperformer and activist RuPaul
- 25:04Speaker 3: getting a little bit hysterical with the help of Joy Beha.
- 25:07Speaker 12: I mean, I hate to get serious, but it is
- 25:09Speaker 12: at a time when when the rights of LGBT plus
- 25:12Speaker 12: the community are getting there right stripped away along with
- 25:15Speaker 12: other people. And how do you respond to all that?
- 25:18Speaker 12: I know you're responding with joy and wonderuness, But is
- 25:21Speaker 12: there anything you want to say to you're his secret
- 25:24Speaker 12: joy to those people who are stripping your rights.
- 25:26Speaker 14: You know, we've tried rational thinking, critical thing, We tried
- 25:30Speaker 14: everything we try to convince people say, look, this plus
- 25:33Speaker 14: this equalsis I really don't I wish I had an answer.
- 25:36Speaker 14: I don't know what else to do I we as
- 25:38Speaker 14: we all are at our wits end. We've never experienced
- 25:42Speaker 14: anything like this in our lives, never in our life.
- 25:45Speaker 3: And of course we are told constantly that the lgbt
- 25:49Speaker 3: QIA twosl plus plus community is under attack in the US,
- 25:54Speaker 3: but just don't ask them to name any real life examples.
- 25:57Speaker 15: Do you feel President Trump is oppressive to the LGBTQ
- 26:01Speaker 15: community very much? How has your life changed since Trump
- 26:04Speaker 15: been through the White House.
- 26:08Speaker 11: I haven't quite felt any like any changes quite myself.
- 26:13Speaker 11: I don't know if maybe I may just be blind
- 26:15Speaker 11: to it.
- 26:15Speaker 15: Do you feel a child should have to wait till
- 26:17Speaker 15: they're eighteen to transition or should they be able to
- 26:19Speaker 15: start taking things such as hormone therapy and other procedures
- 26:23Speaker 15: once they're in their teenage years.
- 26:25Speaker 11: I think we should allow the children to do what
- 26:28Speaker 11: they want to do. I think we should allow children
- 26:31Speaker 11: to transition.
- 26:32Speaker 3: Let's bring in Sky News contributor Kosher Gaeta. Kosher Pride
- 26:36Speaker 3: Month is here, and we're going to say a lot
- 26:38Speaker 3: of celebrity and corporate virtue signling oh joy.
- 26:44Speaker 16: There was no awareness at all that that person was saying.
- 26:48Speaker 16: You know, I can't think of any examples, but it's there.
- 26:51Speaker 16: It's true, just believe me. Just can't can't cite anything.
- 26:54Speaker 16: And it's kind of getting old. I do feel like
- 26:57Speaker 16: were past the peak of that, but there's still an
- 27:00Speaker 16: off of it that you see these carnivals.
- 27:01Speaker 4: But you see the hysteria.
- 27:03Speaker 3: You see these people saying, you know, they're going to
- 27:05Speaker 3: be rounded up and putting camps. Others who genuinely believe
- 27:09Speaker 3: there's been assault against their rights, though they can't name
- 27:13Speaker 3: any instances. And this complete ignorance of the fact that
- 27:18Speaker 3: Donald Trump was the first president who came to power
- 27:22Speaker 3: believing in same sex marriage and having a fairly permissive
- 27:25Speaker 3: attitude in this area, though he obviously takes a dim
- 27:29Speaker 3: view of children being transitioned, yes.
- 27:33Speaker 16: Which is a whole different issue. And that person was
- 27:36Speaker 16: trying to equate all of it. And we know that
- 27:37Speaker 16: there generally is unity even for the people that are
- 27:40Speaker 16: quite liberal socially the children when they're minors and doing
- 27:44Speaker 16: permanent things, surgical interventions, medical interventions, that is an eighty
- 27:49Speaker 16: twenty issue, it might even be a ninety ten issue.
- 27:50Speaker 16: We know that, Yet these people continue and Trump. You
- 27:53Speaker 16: make a good point, he has always been socially liberal
- 27:56Speaker 16: when it comes to this issue, when it comes to
- 27:58Speaker 16: abortion and other things, and the flip side in Obama campaign,
- 28:01Speaker 16: just to go back down memory lane a little bit
- 28:04Speaker 16: as being very open, and a lot of people believed
- 28:06Speaker 16: that would be the case, and he was actually in
- 28:08Speaker 16: the opposite direction when it came to sam sex marriage.
- 28:10Speaker 3: He changed his mind in his second term.
- 28:13Speaker 16: I think yes, rhetorically, but in terms of how he
- 28:16Speaker 16: actually governed, he was more conservative on that particular issue
- 28:19Speaker 16: than people believed. But you know, the mythology continues, and
- 28:22Speaker 16: people have perceptions of these presidents that are not always
- 28:25Speaker 16: tathered to reality.
- 28:27Speaker 3: Now to New Jersey, and it's been revealed the anti
- 28:31Speaker 3: ICE writer who allegedly bit federal agents was previously accused
- 28:35Speaker 3: of distributing child pornography. The New York Post reports the
- 28:40Speaker 3: New Jersey US Attorney's Office charge Brendan John Gaya twenty six,
- 28:45Speaker 3: with assaulting federal offices and causing bodily injury for allegedly
- 28:49Speaker 3: kicking and biting ICE officers outside the Newark Detention Center,
- 28:54Speaker 3: leaving them with horrific wounds.
- 28:56Speaker 4: Kosher.
- 28:57Speaker 3: We've seen these violent protests normalized, even celebrated by segments
- 29:03Speaker 3: of the media.
- 29:04Speaker 16: And unfortunately this is what you get. There always seems
- 29:07Speaker 16: to be something. When you dig deeper, they come off,
- 29:09Speaker 16: and the media, of course wants to whitewash them a
- 29:11Speaker 16: certain way, and more often than not, not always, but
- 29:14Speaker 16: more often than not, there are disturbed aspects to the
- 29:17Speaker 16: backgrounds of a lot of these people. It's symptomatic of
- 29:21Speaker 16: I think, a six society and a society that has
- 29:24Speaker 16: normalized and does celebrate these things. And if you just
- 29:27Speaker 16: have half a century of unchecked immigration, those people are
- 29:31Speaker 16: basically allowed to function as quasi citizens. The red carper
- 29:35Speaker 16: is ruled out for them in more ways than one.
- 29:37Speaker 16: And now you try to unscramble that egg, which is
- 29:40Speaker 16: very difficult to do, and get them out. This is
- 29:43Speaker 16: what you get, and you get riots. Whether it's in
- 29:44Speaker 16: Minneapolis now in New Jersey, it is so so so difficult.
- 29:48Speaker 16: It's quick to let them in and so difficult to
- 29:49Speaker 16: get them out, both because of them as well as
- 29:52Speaker 16: Americans like this person who seem to be aiding and
- 29:54Speaker 16: abtting them.
- 29:56Speaker 3: There's an anticipation with the midterms coming up that we're
- 29:59Speaker 3: going to see rise of this sort of political violence.
- 30:02Speaker 3: We saw the BLM rights in the lead up to
- 30:04Speaker 3: the twenty twenty election, and it seems to be just
- 30:07Speaker 3: more activity in this area before a big polling date.
- 30:13Speaker 3: Why do the left, Antifa, whoever's behind these protests and
- 30:19Speaker 3: the violence that you see across the country, why do
- 30:22Speaker 3: they believe it helps them? Why do they think having
- 30:26Speaker 3: this sort of unruly behavior in major cities is going
- 30:29Speaker 3: to actually boost the left vote?
- 30:31Speaker 16: Such a good question, and it does feel like it's
- 30:33Speaker 16: a faucet that they can turn on and off. Curiously
- 30:36Speaker 16: than the protests always seem to come out of very
- 30:37Speaker 16: convenient times, politically.
- 30:39Speaker 4: Very organized, very organized, so.
- 30:42Speaker 16: We all can read between the lines about you know,
- 30:44Speaker 16: what might be happening there. I think it's too opposing
- 30:46Speaker 16: forces where it makes them look bad. Of course, the
- 30:49Speaker 16: average normal person who's going about their lives sees this
- 30:52Speaker 16: kind of chaos in Mehem and it doesn't paint them well.
- 30:55Speaker 16: But the cynic in me my personal view is that
- 30:58Speaker 16: they know it can lead to an incident or two
- 31:01Speaker 16: that can generate headlines like what happened in Minneapolis where
- 31:04Speaker 16: that person was shot and killed in that dust stop,
- 31:08Speaker 16: and worse it happened with ice officers, and then over
- 31:11Speaker 16: here something like that were to happen. It allows them
- 31:13Speaker 16: to completely flip the narrative. And even though this is
- 31:16Speaker 16: now an eighty twenty issue, immigration and especially illegal immigration,
- 31:19Speaker 16: getting them out mass deportations. Never thought i'd see it,
- 31:22Speaker 16: but eighty percent of the country now wants that. When
- 31:24Speaker 16: you see something like this happen, where in that crossfire
- 31:28Speaker 16: an American citizen gets hurt or even killed, as it
- 31:30Speaker 16: happened in Minneapolis, that can get people squishy and soft
- 31:34Speaker 16: on the issue. And my theory is that that's why
- 31:36Speaker 16: they're doing this, because they're trying to cause a bad incident.
- 31:39Speaker 4: Which allows them to flip the narrative.
- 31:41Speaker 3: Now, let's look at lefty hotland Washington, DC, and it
- 31:45Speaker 3: doesn't get more lefty than DC. I think Trump got
- 31:47Speaker 3: around five percent of the vote there, but he has
- 31:50Speaker 3: said about cleaning up the city and the locals are noticing.
- 31:55Speaker 4: This is crazy.
- 31:57Speaker 13: Now, I'm from this area, I'd never I've seen it
- 32:00Speaker 13: like this. It's so blue, and he's bouncing off the
- 32:04Speaker 13: white marble. I've never seen the marble this clean before.
- 32:08Speaker 13: We have two other fountains, two that have the same
- 32:11Speaker 13: blue water. Oh my god, it smells gorgeous.
- 32:18Speaker 4: It looks gorgeous kosher.
- 32:21Speaker 3: That was the Columbus Fountain at Union Square, looking very
- 32:25Speaker 3: different to the last time I saw it, and that
- 32:27Speaker 3: was long ago. Just an incredible transformation.
- 32:30Speaker 16: She was positively ecstatic. Yes, And I think people are
- 32:33Speaker 16: kind of waking up and realizing that you don't have
- 32:36Speaker 16: to live this way the way they've been living. She
- 32:38Speaker 16: we couldn't see her, but she sounded quite young, so
- 32:40Speaker 16: in her living memory, the norm was probably for it
- 32:43Speaker 16: to be very third world. Forgive the term, which is
- 32:47Speaker 16: how these cities iconic cities. This is the seat of
- 32:49Speaker 16: power of Washington, DC or LA with Spencer Pratt related topic,
- 32:54Speaker 16: even though you know he's got an uphill battle to win,
- 32:57Speaker 16: but the one big reason why he's doing so well
- 32:59Speaker 16: is because people like clean streets and sidewalks and fountains
- 33:03Speaker 16: and monuments. And in DC, Trump has more levers available
- 33:06Speaker 16: to him, so he has pulled those livers and people
- 33:09Speaker 16: are getting to enjoy what it's like to live in
- 33:10Speaker 16: a clean, first walled city.
- 33:11Speaker 3: Well, our plates of footage of lefty heartland cities yesterday,
- 33:16Speaker 3: places like Seat Hole where the Democrats have ruled for
- 33:19Speaker 3: over fifty years, and the decay there is just everywhere,
- 33:24Speaker 3: and you won't have a population there who know any different.
- 33:27Speaker 3: This is life as they know it. It's not even
- 33:30Speaker 3: an opportion to have clean streets and feel safe and
- 33:35Speaker 3: not just have homelessness and drug use and that sort
- 33:39Speaker 3: of crime right in your face.
- 33:40Speaker 16: Just normalize it. In all these books from nineteen eighty
- 33:43Speaker 16: four to Breathe New World and all of them, you
- 33:46Speaker 16: see that in fiction depicted that way, where it just
- 33:48Speaker 16: takes a generation and then people's memories are set and
- 33:52Speaker 16: they expect less and less of their.
- 33:54Speaker 4: Leaders, which suits the leaders just fine. Now to a horrifying.
- 33:58Speaker 3: Story out of the UK that really only came to
- 34:02Speaker 3: light thanks to Elon Musk's ex What happened to eighteen
- 34:06Speaker 3: year old Henry Novak.
- 34:08Speaker 4: Should shame every bridge.
- 34:10Speaker 3: It should really shame the police force and the Kirstarma government.
- 34:14Speaker 3: This teenage boy was attacked by Vicarim Digwa, stabbed with
- 34:19Speaker 3: a Sikh dagger. The killer claimed to be carrying for
- 34:22Speaker 3: religious reasons, but it's what happened after the stabbing that
- 34:26Speaker 3: really should shame the British police and government. The killer
- 34:29Speaker 3: claimed falsely that Henry had uttered a racial slur. So
- 34:33Speaker 3: what did the police do? They immediately handcuffed the victim,
- 34:38Speaker 3: even as he begged them for help, even as he
- 34:40Speaker 3: was bleeding to death. I'm going to play you just
- 34:44Speaker 3: ten seconds of the footage of the incident and a
- 34:47Speaker 3: warning it is distressing, and.
- 34:53Speaker 8: Put the hand in the cuff mat.
- 35:00Speaker 3: You can hear him there say I can't breathe, I've
- 35:05Speaker 3: been stabbed and kosher. The police were more concerned about
- 35:09Speaker 3: an alleged racial slur than assisting a victim who was dying.
- 35:15Speaker 16: That is the most horrific thing I've seen. And we
- 35:19Speaker 16: are cynical news people. It takes a lot to shake you.
- 35:22Speaker 16: And that was just so sad. He's eighteen years old,
- 35:25Speaker 16: as you say, and there's so many layers to what happened.
- 35:29Speaker 16: So there's this rush to fit in the frame of
- 35:32Speaker 16: the racial angle, which is obviously what the media is doing.
- 35:35Speaker 16: And maybe that was even coloring what the officers were doing.
- 35:38Speaker 16: We don't know why they were slow to act. Maybe
- 35:40Speaker 16: it's even incompetence where even if there are people that
- 35:43Speaker 16: are known perpetrators, you administer first aid. That is the
- 35:47Speaker 16: first thing that he wants you to.
- 35:48Speaker 3: One of the officers didn't seem to even believe that
- 35:50Speaker 3: he'd been stabbed. He was disputing that didn't even bother
- 35:53Speaker 3: to check. And you look at the footage and it
- 35:57Speaker 3: was clear. It was clear to me that this poor
- 36:01Speaker 3: kid was in trouble, that he wasn't faking. He was
- 36:04Speaker 3: struggling to breathe, he was in all sorts of trouble.
- 36:07Speaker 3: And the indifference, the callousness, like you said, it's just shocked.
- 36:13Speaker 16: It is so shocking, just on that level from a
- 36:15Speaker 16: competence or what have you. The first thing you do
- 36:18Speaker 16: is you administered, even if you think they're faking it,
- 36:20Speaker 16: So that feels like a big fail. I know there's
- 36:21Speaker 16: an investigation going on into how that happened. Bodycam footage
- 36:24Speaker 16: has not been released of the police officers. I think
- 36:27Speaker 16: people are going to be chomping at the bit to
- 36:29Speaker 16: see that what did they see. We know nothing about
- 36:32Speaker 16: their identities or their background, So that needs to be
- 36:36Speaker 16: something that happens fast and hard, the investigation into the officers.
- 36:38Speaker 16: But then beyond that, of course, what the perpetrator did.
- 36:41Speaker 16: He was so quick to play the racial card, and
- 36:44Speaker 16: he's a product of society, the society that has enabled
- 36:47Speaker 16: this that you play that card, and it's some sort
- 36:49Speaker 16: of shield, some sort of defense against accountability or culpability.
- 36:53Speaker 4: Seems to cast a spell on the police force.
- 36:55Speaker 3: You make that claim and they've got literally as stabbing
- 37:00Speaker 3: victim in front of them, and suddenly they're handcuffing him because,
- 37:03Speaker 3: oh my god, what if he committed a hate crime
- 37:06Speaker 3: and uttered a racial slur? I mean, come on, now
- 37:09Speaker 3: that the killer has been sentence a minimum term of
- 37:13Speaker 3: twenty one years, Henry's father has addressed the media. This
- 37:17Speaker 3: is what he had to say outside of the court.
- 37:20Speaker 17: With his final words, he told officers that he could
- 37:23Speaker 17: not breathe. He told them he had been stabbed. In fact,
- 37:29Speaker 17: Henry told officers that he could not breathe nine times.
- 37:34Speaker 17: He told them he had been stabbed four times. The
- 37:38Speaker 17: response from one officer was, I don't think you have mate.
- 37:44Speaker 17: The police have said they were misled by the murderer
- 37:47Speaker 17: and that the scene when they arrived was complex. Unfortunately,
- 37:52Speaker 17: it seems to us that truth is much simpler. The
- 37:57Speaker 17: police were told by our son himself and by a
- 38:00Speaker 17: member of the public who called nine niney nine that
- 38:03Speaker 17: they heard someone shout that they had been stabbed, but
- 38:08Speaker 17: the police did not believe them. Henry was pulled across
- 38:13Speaker 17: the gravel, his hands forced behind his back, and he
- 38:16Speaker 17: was placed in handcuffs. Instead of being treated as a
- 38:20Speaker 17: dying victim, police formally arrested Henry for assault and read
- 38:24Speaker 17: him his rights. That was the last thing he heard.
- 38:29Speaker 3: Oh, that's just terrific that that that's the last thing
- 38:33Speaker 3: he heard. And his father went on to say that
- 38:36Speaker 3: the murderer was believed and treated with dignity, but Henry
- 38:40Speaker 3: was not.
- 38:41Speaker 16: I have no words. It makes her blood. Boy. You
- 38:43Speaker 16: could see the female family members and even actually gentlemen
- 38:46Speaker 16: in the back there couldn't hold back to yours. I
- 38:47Speaker 16: think that's all of us. This is just outrageous. I
- 38:50Speaker 16: go back to you know, why why the police behave
- 38:54Speaker 16: this way? And even as this individual case gets prosecuted,
- 38:57Speaker 16: there's a there's a broader issue here, and I think
- 38:59Speaker 16: there's spectrum anywhere from They really have been brainwashed into
- 39:04Speaker 16: thinking that the organizing principle of society is racial, and
- 39:08Speaker 16: that is what guides their thought process.
- 39:11Speaker 3: Is a police force that arrests, that pays visits to
- 39:15Speaker 3: people who have posted mean tweets, or have mothers and
- 39:19Speaker 3: grandmoms that are offensive to some segments of society. So
- 39:23Speaker 3: when you've got a police force with that sort of
- 39:25Speaker 3: culture where they are literally going after thousands of people
- 39:32Speaker 3: every single year for things that they're posting.
- 39:34Speaker 4: Online, and I'm not surprised. Then, yeah, this is not isolated.
- 39:39Speaker 3: Now, UK Prime Minister Kiirs Starma has been criticized for
- 39:43Speaker 3: taking so long to release a statement, has had plenty
- 39:46Speaker 3: to say since then, But has he said anything of
- 39:49Speaker 3: consequence kosher, Because let's not forget Kis Starma took a
- 39:52Speaker 3: knee for George Floyd and for BLM. He hasn't taken
- 39:56Speaker 3: a knee for Henry Novak, who killed was a far
- 40:01Speaker 3: greater schedule.
- 40:03Speaker 16: Yes, and this is a minor point, but George Floyd
- 40:06Speaker 16: and BLM were not even in his country. George Floyd
- 40:08Speaker 16: certainly wasn't. He's taking a knee for something that happened
- 40:12Speaker 16: miles So they did.
- 40:13Speaker 3: Riot in the UK that caused all sorts of damage,
- 40:16Speaker 3: and he took a knee instead of condemning that.
- 40:19Speaker 16: Vile another organized protest that somehow just popped up around
- 40:22Speaker 16: the world around BLM. Yes, so he was very quick
- 40:25Speaker 16: again to do that. It's cowardly. He's a coward. That's
- 40:27Speaker 16: the only way to say. You just jump on the
- 40:29Speaker 16: bandwagon that's fashionable and safe, and then you take, however
- 40:32Speaker 16: many hours he took to do this in your own country,
- 40:35Speaker 16: your own eighteen year old citizen had to go through this.
- 40:38Speaker 16: The fact that he took that long either means he
- 40:39Speaker 16: has no political instincts. It probably means that it's cowardice.
- 40:43Speaker 16: Maybe he had to focus group the words to do
- 40:45Speaker 16: it or something like that.
- 40:46Speaker 4: There's no he's talking about knife violence.
- 40:49Speaker 3: Of course, knife violence is a huge issue needs to
- 40:53Speaker 3: be dealt with. But what we're looking at with this
- 40:56Speaker 3: case is far beyond Dad. We're talking about the conduct
- 40:59Speaker 3: of the police. We're talking about the entire policing system
- 41:04Speaker 3: as opposed to just the fact that the UK has
- 41:07Speaker 3: a issue with knife violence.
- 41:09Speaker 4: Kosha Gata, thank you so much for your time. Thank you.
- 41:11Speaker 3: Still to come more political violence from the left. Alex
- 41:16Speaker 3: Stein has the details.
- 41:26Speaker 4: Welcome back now.
- 41:28Speaker 3: Watch as gb News journalist Ben Leo is confronted by
- 41:32Speaker 3: an angry lefty losing a protest outside and I at
- 41:36Speaker 3: tensioned facility in New Jersey. Just look how triggered this
- 41:39Speaker 3: duty is with simple facts.
- 41:41Speaker 18: Or what twenty times more likely to commit sexual offenses
- 41:45Speaker 18: than then the bridge. Yeah, native bread.
- 41:47Speaker 2: Bridge that klonized the whole world. You mean that riped
- 41:49Speaker 2: the pillage the whole world.
- 41:50Speaker 18: To get the power of the brit The bridge, Yeah,
- 41:52Speaker 18: the bridge that did that.
- 41:53Speaker 2: And you guys have the audacity to say that Afghanis
- 41:56Speaker 2: smilies did what.
- 41:58Speaker 18: It's not a dusty it's just the facts. It's always
- 41:59Speaker 18: an not a fact.
- 42:00Speaker 2: It's not a fact that y'all colonize the world through rape,
- 42:03Speaker 2: murder and pillaging.
- 42:05Speaker 3: This dude was just warming up, and as is often
- 42:08Speaker 3: the case with the left, they resort to threats and violence.
- 42:13Speaker 4: Watch this.
- 42:13Speaker 18: How dare you?
- 42:14Speaker 16: How dare you are?
- 42:16Speaker 14: What are you?
- 42:16Speaker 2: Because you're that's why? How dare you? You're talking facts?
- 42:20Speaker 2: Let's talk facts, let's talk do something about it. I'm
- 42:23Speaker 2: not doing something about it, something about it. I'm here
- 42:27Speaker 2: to ask questions.
- 42:27Speaker 9: How did you get into this country?
- 42:28Speaker 2: Are you're talking about? I'm because.
- 42:34Speaker 3: Did you notice the thug and the nerd are suddenly
- 42:37Speaker 3: worried about how this British journalist who incidentally lives in America.
- 42:42Speaker 3: How they're so concerned about how you got into the country.
- 42:46Speaker 3: Suddenly they care about borders and legally entering the country.
- 42:49Speaker 18: Why are you shaking? Why are you getting.
- 42:51Speaker 2: Because drone is going I'm holding everything back not to
- 42:53Speaker 2: break your jaw.
- 42:55Speaker 18: Well you can do it. You would get arrested. Bro,
- 42:59Speaker 18: This doesn't make you argument, This doesn't make you as.
- 43:04Speaker 14: Talk for violence.
- 43:05Speaker 18: Yes, well, yes, that's the left, that is the that
- 43:08Speaker 18: is the degenerated. You give facts, who started, came all
- 43:13Speaker 18: the way over?
- 43:13Speaker 2: Who started? Who started?
- 43:16Speaker 18: You give facts, you give data, and they get.
- 43:20Speaker 14: Class finishing country started.
- 43:22Speaker 2: I'm a finish it.
- 43:23Speaker 18: Yeah, I wish you well, my friend started, I'm finish it.
- 43:26Speaker 2: Why don't you go back to your country?
- 43:28Speaker 3: I hear, why don't you go back to your own country?
- 43:32Speaker 3: How racist can you get? This is the modern left,
- 43:35Speaker 3: folks dominated by mentally ill women, thugs and nerds. Joining
- 43:40Speaker 3: me now is comedian and host of After Hours with
- 43:43Speaker 3: Alex Stein. Alex, There's no reasoning with these people, is there?
- 43:49Speaker 7: No way? You know?
- 43:49Speaker 19: I'm a friend of ben Leo's. I hung out with
- 43:51Speaker 19: him at Sea Pack and he's a brave guy. But
- 43:53Speaker 19: this is the issue, and that guy that he can
- 43:56Speaker 19: front it all of a sudden gets violent. He's doing
- 43:58Speaker 19: nothing to help beat the allegan I mean, in the
- 44:00Speaker 19: court of public opinion. He looks so guilty. I almost
- 44:03Speaker 19: feel like he's like paid to be there. He's acting
- 44:05Speaker 19: so crazy and so aggressive. It's almost unbelievable to watch.
- 44:09Speaker 7: Rito.
- 44:11Speaker 3: I've played lots of footage of you being similarly abused.
- 44:15Speaker 3: It must be scary at times. You don't know what
- 44:18Speaker 3: these people are capable of.
- 44:21Speaker 7: No way in Rita.
- 44:22Speaker 19: I mean all these people are basically at these protests
- 44:25Speaker 19: or like just to be at a social gathering.
- 44:28Speaker 7: So sometimes they're.
- 44:28Speaker 19: Drunk, sometimes they're on drugs. I mean, these people are
- 44:31Speaker 19: very impulsive. And I've been hit and Bin's like he
- 44:34Speaker 19: didn't get hit. You could tell that he had some
- 44:36Speaker 19: sort of security. But one security guard against the marbled people,
- 44:39Speaker 19: you know, really doesn't help you that much. So at
- 44:41Speaker 19: the end of the day, that's what it takes to
- 44:43Speaker 19: go and get the most interesting interviews. And that's why
- 44:45Speaker 19: that video is blowing up because you can actually see
- 44:48Speaker 19: concrete evidence of the Luod being violent, which we already
- 44:52Speaker 19: know is true.
- 44:54Speaker 3: Absolutely, It's so important for this work to be done
- 44:57Speaker 3: because we know the leftists main stream media isn't doing it,
- 45:01Speaker 3: and this really shines a light on these activists because
- 45:05Speaker 3: so many in the media actually present them as loving, tolerant,
- 45:09Speaker 3: inclusive people who are there for social justice reasons. Now,
- 45:14Speaker 3: the World Cup is fast approaching and the Left are
- 45:18Speaker 3: finding new ways to find problems with the tournament. Have
- 45:21Speaker 3: a look at this from the San Francisco Current Chronicle,
- 45:26Speaker 3: which says the open hostility to gay rights in today's
- 45:30Speaker 3: US creates an anxious environment for fans traveling to attend
- 45:35Speaker 3: World Cup matches.
- 45:37Speaker 4: Pride houses such.
- 45:38Speaker 3: As the one in San Francisco offer a safe haven, Alex,
- 45:42Speaker 3: are these people for real? The last World Cup was
- 45:46Speaker 3: in Qatar, where same sex acts can see you end
- 45:51Speaker 3: up in jail for seven years.
- 45:54Speaker 19: Now when reader, not only that the last FIFA that
- 45:57Speaker 19: happened in Guitar based alleged that arecent five hundred migrant
- 46:01Speaker 19: workers died in the basic for slavery. I mean, I
- 46:05Speaker 19: don't know how was to call it in Qatar, so
- 46:07Speaker 19: talk about human rights issues.
- 46:09Speaker 7: So of course this is just them trying to.
- 46:12Speaker 19: Create a problem out of nothing and trying to create
- 46:14Speaker 19: attention for their cause.
- 46:15Speaker 7: And it is what it is. It's Pride Month. It's
- 46:18Speaker 7: just started.
- 46:18Speaker 19: We got thirty more days of this, reader, I hope
- 46:21Speaker 19: you enjoy it.
- 46:24Speaker 3: I'll be there for the end of it. So let's
- 46:27Speaker 3: just save a couple of celebrations for me now. Kamala
- 46:30Speaker 3: Harris's stepdaughter, Ella m Hoff, who is signed to a
- 46:34Speaker 3: top modeling agency, has shown off her fashion style and
- 46:39Speaker 3: her flexibility.
- 46:54Speaker 19: Yes.
- 46:55Speaker 3: Ella m Hoff is signed to one of the world's
- 46:57Speaker 3: most prestigious modeling agents as IMG and has been described
- 47:02Speaker 3: alex as a fashion it girl and top model by
- 47:06Speaker 3: the industry.
- 47:09Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 47:09Speaker 19: I mean, that's absolutely ridiculous. We've lowered our standards when
- 47:12Speaker 19: it comes to the definition of beauty. But you know,
- 47:14Speaker 19: I feel bad for Emma because have you heard the
- 47:16Speaker 19: latest rumor that Doug is living in a separate house
- 47:19Speaker 19: as Kamala.
- 47:20Speaker 7: So there's a trouble.
- 47:22Speaker 19: In paradise and I can see her trying to I
- 47:25Speaker 19: think she's secretly asking for help when she makes videos
- 47:28Speaker 19: like this because she just wants people to contact her.
- 47:31Speaker 19: Can I give you a wellness check? And I give
- 47:32Speaker 19: you a wellness check? Ella, because that video is so odd,
- 47:35Speaker 19: people really know. I think she's reaching out for help secretly.
- 47:39Speaker 3: Are you giving us a little bit of goss there?
- 47:41Speaker 3: Kamala Harris may have split from Doug, she was always
- 47:44Speaker 3: too good for him. I've got to say now, Jimmy
- 47:46Speaker 3: Kimmel's sister in law, Carlely Kimmel, has been accused of
- 47:50Speaker 3: launching a complaint about Spencer Pratt themed cookies being sold
- 47:55Speaker 3: at a grocery store. Well, that has backfired because since
- 47:58Speaker 3: then the cookies have blown up in popularity with the baker.
- 48:02Speaker 4: Behind them, Daniella Romano.
- 48:04Speaker 3: Giving an update on her success, Romana told the California Post,
- 48:09Speaker 3: We're getting calls from all over the country. I had
- 48:11Speaker 3: someone called me from Canada today. I had someone call
- 48:14Speaker 3: me from West Virginia, South Carolina, Florida, all over Texas,
- 48:19Speaker 3: a lot of Texas, alex The demand is so overwhelming
- 48:22Speaker 3: that Romana is working through and trying to ship these
- 48:27Speaker 3: nation wide. So this little bit of a cancel culture
- 48:32Speaker 3: has backfired.
- 48:34Speaker 19: Well, you know, and that's actually a good indication of
- 48:36Speaker 19: how well Spincher's campaign is going, because it is huge internationally.
- 48:41Speaker 19: It's huge all over America, and that's why she's getting
- 48:43Speaker 19: so many orders. And what's crazy is all the prediction
- 48:45Speaker 19: betting markets basically are giving him an eighty percent chance
- 48:49Speaker 19: to make it into the runoff, and if he gets
- 48:50Speaker 19: into the runoff, it's anybody's game, so I think there's
- 48:53Speaker 19: a strong possibility we have another famous reality TV star to,
- 48:57Speaker 19: you know, major politician from Donald Trump's for Pratt, and
- 49:00Speaker 19: I think America is ready for it, and I know
- 49:01Speaker 19: Los Angeles seems like they're behind them as well.
- 49:05Speaker 3: Alex Stein, thank you for your time, and that's it
- 49:08Speaker 3: for me. Newsnight is up next
