• 0:11
  Speaker 1: It's the good report.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Tonight, Israel arrists Greta Tunberg as she tries to sail
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: the Gaza, and a diesel powered boat with some strange
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: cruise companions and a climate alarmist gits Astraea's top honor
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: despite crying wolf so often about the Great Barrier. Reef, Well,
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: maybe that's exactly why he did get it. Speaking of
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: King's birthday, wards, why does Scott Morrison get the top
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: award for his handing of our ott response to COVID?
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: Also tonight, the hard left starts another civil war against
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump, fighting under the flag of a foreign country.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: Plenty more tonight as well, but first Anthony Ibnezy looks
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: headed for a nasty confrontation with US President Donald Trump
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: when they finally meet, probably next week of the GC
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: in Canada, a confrontation on defense, plus now one on
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: free speech after the Avenizi government outrageously banned an American Jew,
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: a tech expert who was coming to speak at a
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: fundraiser or two for mag and David a Doom Israel's
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: version of the Red Cross. Now on both issues, this
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: government is on the very wrong side, and the US
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: is already complaining about that ban. Now the defense issue
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: you already know about. I'm sure just over a week ago,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth privately told our defense mister
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: Richard Miles that China was a huge threat Australia had
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: to ramp up its defense spending from its pathetic two
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: percent of GDP to three and a half percent. When
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Males refused to tell journalists what the US had actually wanted,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: heg Seth embarrassed him by publishing it on his website.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Three and a half percent and as soon as possible
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: for Marceday was still though, and.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: It's not about chasing a particular number, it's about chasing capability.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Now that's already likely to provoke Trump, who said he
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: won't defend allies who won't defend themselves.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: I said, if you're not going to pay your bills,
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: we're not going to defend you.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: But now just rub a little extra assault in that wound.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Our government has canceled a visa for that American jew
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: helll Fulled, claiming that is a danger to our safety
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: or good order, which is a joke. I mean, Food's
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: real sins seems to be that he disagrees with the
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Amas terrorist group. The Home Affairs the partiment of Minister
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Tony Burke, who said of Watson coincidentally is thirty five
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: percent Muslim accuses full of denying credible atrocities in Gaza.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Atrocities be Israel that means and Islamophobia rhetoric in social
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: media posts, only two of which it quotes. Now, these posts,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: according to Burke Department, were received by members of the
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Islamic community as inflammatory. So there we have it. I mean,
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: you know some of see it. I don't like Fold
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: saying things. So this Jewish should be banned from Australia,
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: just like Burkeer earlier banned a former is already Justice minister.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Can you believe a let's check ed I Fold is shocked.
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: I literally had to read the email like five times.
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: I was like, there's no way that a government is
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: banning some random guy who writes on the internet. I'm
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: not a politician or anything. I had to read the
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: email literally five times. The topic of my talk wasn't
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: even politics or anything to do with gods or anything
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: like that. I was there to talk about how Israel
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: and Israeli innovation is changing the world and making the
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: world a better place. What's inflammatory about that?
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Now you see that full interview with Fulled on Sherry
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Maxon's show just after mind. Now, what's really extraordinary here
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: is that nowhere in the reasons that Burke's Department has
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: published for in full doesn't even try to prove him wrong. Now,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: the first post is from March last year. Burke's Apartment
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: claims it's when Fulled, whose name it misspells posted in
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: relation to the news reports made by many reliable news sources.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: It claimed that at least one hundred and twelve Palestinians
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: had been killed and more than seven hundred and fifty
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: wounded after his ready troops opened fired on hundreds waiting
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: for food aid were Fulled had instead written there was
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: no massacre of Palestinians in Gaza today. Palestinians trampled each
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: other as they fought for the aid of the IDF
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: the army sent in, knowing that Hamas was going to
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: steal it. In parallel, the Palestinian mob tried to attack
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Idea forces, who preceded to shoot warning shots in the air,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: and when the mob didn't stop, the Idea fired at
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: their legs. Now Burk's Department's account is essentially based as
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: were the media ones on claims of the Hamas terrorist
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: group which runs Gaza. Fools, on the other hand, were
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: based on the claims of the Israeli Defense Force. Who's
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: telling the truth is even now unclear, but Burke's Apartment
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: clearly prefers to trust Hamas, which has lied so often.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Yet Israeli's Defense released heavily edited video yes showing Palestinians
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: indeed swarming the AID trucks. Now, I don't doubt Israeli
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: truths to issue Palestinians, but how the strategy unfolded and
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: how many were actually killed remains highly contested. Burke's Apartment
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: then quotes that a second that second post from Fuld,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: which was last January, but without saying which of the
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: twenty one points fold makes are wrong and islamophobic, but
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: well guess. In point one, full said that up to
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: fifteen percent of words Wislims were radicalized, and the data
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: actually backs him. Last year, a polled by British British
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: think tank found that even in Britain, even there forty
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: six percent of Muslims supported Harmas. Fulda also said that
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: differentiating between Gazans and Hamas is abyst inaccurate, given that
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Gazans elected Hamas and a vast majority of them support
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: October seven. And by the way, no one debated the
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: legitimacy of World War II by saying, well, there were
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: innocent Germans in Germany and we should treat this war
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: and Ghaza the same. It was his argument, and again,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: you know, sure enough. In May, the repetial Palestinian Center
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: for Policy and Surveyed research found in its poll that
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: despite Israel's massive retaliation eroding a fair bit of support
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: for Hamas, even then, fifty seven percent of Palestinians it
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: polled still backed it, and half still thought the October
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: seven massacre of Jews was a good idea. It was
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: worth all. What's happened since.
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: Now?
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Apparently most shocking of what full posted that day is
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: that he said, tragically, it is not safe to assume
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: that all children in Gaza are innocent, given children, he
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: pointed out, had been brainwashed to hate Jews and some
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: had killed them. I've seen the brainwashing videos. That's obviously true,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: But fool would sure know about Palatinian children, some a few,
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: a handful whatever being killers. His own brother was stabbed
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: in the back by a boy who was just seventeen,
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: and he died chasing that young terrorist to save other
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: Jews from being stabbed. That food is now being banned
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: by our government for coming here to raise money for
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: Israeli ambulances, even though the government has improved. One thing
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: is said is false. And here's the thing, the Trump angle.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: This is really going to get up the nose of
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: the Trump administration because Vice President jd. Vance has alreally
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: warned America's European allies in a really provocative speech, really
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: put it to them against shutting down free speech.
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: Shutting down media, shutting down elections, or shutting people out
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: of the political process protects nothing.
• 8:24
  Speaker 7: In fact, it is.
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: The most surefire way to destroy democracy.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: And Trump's Secretary of State Marco Rubio followed up in
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: April announcing America and now banded foreigners who shut down
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: free speech of Americans.
• 8:40
  Speaker 8: We don't want to see an American who happens to
• 8:42
  Speaker 8: be living in London or happens to be living in
• 8:44
  Speaker 8: Europe post something online about American politics or any politics,
• 8:48
  Speaker 8: and all of a sudden they're facing ramifications over there,
• 8:51
  Speaker 8: or they're denied entry. And you know something happens, you know,
• 8:54
  Speaker 8: or we're denying them into our country. If suddenly these
• 8:56
  Speaker 8: become places where people are targeted because of what they
• 9:00
  Speaker 8: said or what their opinion is, than one of the
• 9:02
  Speaker 8: pillars of our shared interest, beyond military cooperation mounting out
• 9:07
  Speaker 8: is under attack.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: And indeed the US has already sent Australia warning about
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: banning HELLEL. Fuld, he said an American citizen, Mike Huckabee, America's
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: ambassador to Israel, has already written to Minister Tony Burke
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: saying mister Full is a highly respected member in his
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: community and well known in Israel. While he holds strong
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: views against terrorism and the kind of massacre that occurred
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: on October seven, he would pose no threat to the
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: people of Australia by his actions or words. But once
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: again the Albanizi government has given the US the back
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: of its hand, with Burke today saying Australians have a
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: strong view that we don't want hatred from overseas brought here.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: They don't want hatred brought here. Which government, by the way,
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: has recently issued tourist visas to nearly three thousand palacein
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: the from terrorists rum Gaza with only the most basic
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: initial security checks. I fear this government really is just
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: against importing an American Jewish teller of truths, and Anthony
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: Albanezi should now fear what Trump might make of that.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: Johny now's the panel, Michael Kroger, former Victorian Liberal President,
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Steve Conroy, former Labor Senator and Cabinet minister. Michael this
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: ban on the American Israeli Jewish tech expert, the US
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: already complaining what do you make of it?
• 10:42
  Speaker 9: So this is just a political decision by Tony Burke
• 10:46
  Speaker 9: to appeal to the much larger Muslim community that's in
• 10:51
  Speaker 9: Australia as we know, eight hundred thousand Muslims, one hundred
• 10:53
  Speaker 9: thousand Jews. It's embarrassing, it's humiliating, it brings enormous to
• 11:00
  Speaker 9: credit on this country. It's now known internationally, as you've
• 11:04
  Speaker 9: just pointed out, this government and this country are no
• 11:08
  Speaker 9: longer seen as friends of Israel or.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Friends of the Jewish community.
• 11:11
  Speaker 9: And it's horrific, absurd decisions like this that make Tony
• 11:16
  Speaker 9: Burke probably the worst minister that we've had in this
• 11:22
  Speaker 9: portfolio that I can remember in my lifetime. Andrew, the
• 11:25
  Speaker 9: anti Israel, anti Jewish actions. He and this government have
• 11:29
  Speaker 9: taken an embarrassment to the Labor Party and embarrassment that
• 11:33
  Speaker 9: Labour Party is a great tradition of being friends with
• 11:35
  Speaker 9: the Jewish community and friends of Israel.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Steve Conrolly, this certainly wouldn't have been a decision of
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: a hawk labor government.
• 11:47
  Speaker 7: Well, look, I want to take issue with your whole
• 11:49
  Speaker 7: characterization of this decision some sort of an attack on
• 11:54
  Speaker 7: free speech.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, let me be very clear.
• 11:57
  Speaker 7: Jd Vance is a wholly owned subsidiary of the tech
• 12:01
  Speaker 7: moguls in the United States who've ran a self interested
• 12:05
  Speaker 7: campaign and continue to do.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: You never discuss the topic. No, I can we talk about.
• 12:11
  Speaker 7: The philosophical position.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: I'm talking about the princip No, we're not. We are
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: not we're talking about it.
• 12:20
  Speaker 7: Just showed jd VA editing a lecture. What it says
• 12:26
  Speaker 7: is Australia's sovereignty will be decided by Australia whether you
• 12:31
  Speaker 7: support this individual being band lea, support a pro Nazi
• 12:35
  Speaker 7: individual being banned, or a firebrand Muslim. I'm saying that
• 12:43
  Speaker 7: I don't have enough information to make the judgments that
• 12:46
  Speaker 7: was made. I've just watched your program go through it,
• 12:49
  Speaker 7: and then you proceeded to suggest this was an attack
• 12:52
  Speaker 7: on free speech, and I reject utterly that position. Each
• 12:55
  Speaker 7: individual case is dealt with on individual circumstances. Being pro
• 13:00
  Speaker 7: Nazi speakers banned, there have been some individuals in the
• 13:04
  Speaker 7: Muslim community from overseas that have had question marks about them,
• 13:08
  Speaker 7: and now this individual. But let me be again clear,
• 13:11
  Speaker 7: Australia is the one who will decide who comes to
• 13:14
  Speaker 7: our country to borrow someone else's famous line. And this
• 13:17
  Speaker 7: is not an argument.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: About free speech. I repeat. JD.
• 13:20
  Speaker 7: Varbes is a wholly unsubsidiary of tech moguls in the
• 13:24
  Speaker 7: United States America. They bankrolled his campaign to get into parliament.
• 13:28
  Speaker 7: And if you believe the stories this week that Musk
• 13:32
  Speaker 7: and Peter Teel insisted that Varnce be the deputy president
• 13:38
  Speaker 7: or they wouldn't bankroll Trump. So let's not lose anything.
• 13:42
  Speaker 7: You get Americans bored.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: If you get bored in the lobbying industry, I suggested
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: to go into fishing, you would be a gift to
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: the red herring industry. Michael, not an attack on free speech,
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: I mean banning a speaker for what he might say.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Here is obviously obviously at attack and free speech, and
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: no one here was suggesting that we don't make our
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: own decisions. It is precisely a decision made by this
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: government that we are examining here. And I'm just wondering
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: whether you know whether this can be in any way justified.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: No, I don't think it'd be justified at all.
• 14:25
  Speaker 9: And I'm sorry my friend Stevin Conory is sprouted that
• 14:27
  Speaker 9: irrelevant nonsense about the tech industry and Peter til I
• 14:30
  Speaker 9: don't know what subject he's talking about, but as well
• 14:34
  Speaker 9: as well as Trump sort of Biden. I don't even
• 14:37
  Speaker 9: he knows what he said. But no, this is a
• 14:42
  Speaker 9: well known, well credentialed Jewish actor, a lecturer, and he
• 14:51
  Speaker 9: is very well known throughout the world. He's made some
• 14:54
  Speaker 9: strong criticisms of Palestinian reports. Well, we now know that
• 15:00
  Speaker 9: the Palestinian spokesperson in Gaza, for all the years that
• 15:04
  Speaker 9: we've been listening to the Palestinian civic authority or Palestine
• 15:08
  Speaker 9: health officials or whatever they call themselves, it's just Hamats right.
• 15:11
  Speaker 9: These are lying terrorists, these are butchers. These people have
• 15:14
  Speaker 9: no respect for human life. And so he criticized a
• 15:17
  Speaker 9: lot of these reports, and for that reason he's being banned. No,
• 15:21
  Speaker 9: we all know what's going on here. Andrew's ridiculous. The
• 15:24
  Speaker 9: people are people are not going on. This is another example.
• 15:27
  Speaker 9: We know what's going on here.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Even to the King's Birthday Honors, Scott Morrison is only
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: is one of only fourteen Australians made a Companion of
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: the Order of Australia and the King's Birthday Honors. He
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: got it for, among other things, the August Defense Seal
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: with the nuclear submarines give them a tick, and for
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: his national response to the COVID pandemic, which is rather
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: more controversial. Do you think it's deserved.
• 15:55
  Speaker 7: Look, I agree with both of the issues you've just
• 16:00
  Speaker 7: in terms of Scott Morrison. He did lead us through
• 16:02
  Speaker 7: a difficult situation in COVID and I support most of
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: what he did, and he showed leadership. I also support
• 16:09
  Speaker 7: the Orcus proposal that is now bipartisan. But I think
• 16:14
  Speaker 7: this goes to a deeper issue that there seems to
• 16:18
  Speaker 7: be a desire to criticize and attack and vilify people
• 16:23
  Speaker 7: after they've left office. I mean the attacks on Morrison
• 16:27
  Speaker 7: from some on the left of politics. I might say, oh,
• 16:31
  Speaker 7: it's undeserved, or it was just back off. Daniel Andrews
• 16:34
  Speaker 7: is not being allowed to join golf courses because people
• 16:37
  Speaker 7: didn't like how he hand ridiculous. Okay, so both of
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: the yeah, both of these instances, they've left politics. It's
• 16:45
  Speaker 7: time for everyone else to move on and let them
• 16:46
  Speaker 7: move on with their lives or the Scott Morrison or
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: Daniel Andrews, and neither of them I know, well, neither
• 16:51
  Speaker 7: of them I would call friends of mine. Daniel Andrews
• 16:53
  Speaker 7: would definitely not be described as a friend of mine.
• 16:56
  Speaker 7: But on the principle that once you finished politics, it's
• 17:00
  Speaker 7: time to move on and not persecute people, criticize them
• 17:05
  Speaker 7: and attack them because of things that happened years ago. Well,
• 17:09
  Speaker 7: no matter how controversial it is. So I think on
• 17:12
  Speaker 7: the basis of the reasons put forward, Morrison is equally
• 17:15
  Speaker 7: deserving as previous prime ministers.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: I want to join you there. I think I didn't
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: agree with it much of I mean, it was appalled
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: by the way Dan Andrews, Wren Victoria, absolutely appalled, But
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: I think the hounding of him now, the golf club
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: bands and all that is so vindictive and petty. It's
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: just not you just can't support it. I don't think
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: if you're an adult. Another winner at the very top
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: King's Birthday Awards today is former ABC host Philip Adams
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: of the very tribal Labor Left. Are you applauding Michael
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: as a former board member of the ABC?
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: No, I'm not.
• 17:57
  Speaker 7: No, I'm not tell us what you really think, Michael.
• 18:01
  Speaker 9: You know I don't think. I don't think these awards
• 18:06
  Speaker 9: should be given to former politicians, all of whom tried
• 18:11
  Speaker 9: their very best in office. Whether it's Scott or Julie
• 18:14
  Speaker 9: Gillard or Kevin Rudd, they all try their very best.
• 18:17
  Speaker 9: State politicians, I mean ninety nine point nineer sent them
• 18:20
  Speaker 9: are honest, and they work incredibly hard, no matter what
• 18:23
  Speaker 9: background or party they're from, and they serve this country to.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: The best of their ability.
• 18:27
  Speaker 9: But they're well paid, and I'm not sure that any
• 18:29
  Speaker 9: former politicians should be given these honors, nor.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Should political activists.
• 18:34
  Speaker 9: To take your point, I would prefer these awards solely
• 18:37
  Speaker 9: be given to volunteers who serve their country for nothing.
• 18:44
  Speaker 9: Kredlin just had on an extraordinary man from Witchy Proof.
• 18:48
  Speaker 9: That's the type of person these awards should be kept for.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: And also a.
• 18:53
  Speaker 9: Scientific and artistic community That's how it should be, not
• 18:56
  Speaker 9: for politicians and not for political activists.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm sorry late Night.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: Phone the ABC. Correct, Correct, Michael, you are very articulate there,
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: But I have to say nothing spoke louder than your
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: huge pause before you give an answer. Stephen Conroy, Michael Kroger,
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Thank you very much to you both. I got to say,
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: this is happening again, scenes that look almost like a
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: civil war in America. Well, Donald Trump was first elected president.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: You had American cities being torched by rioters, by anarchists
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: and the hard left, and you know, all encouraged by
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: anti Democrat or anti Trump Democrat politicians who were exploiting
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: race resentments. After the death of a drug effected George
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: George Floyd. One of them, of course egging the mon
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: was Kamla Harris, you might recall. And here we go again.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: Trump this time got elected promising to expel a million
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: illegal immigrants from the US, and last Friday, immigration and
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Customers Enforcement officials raided several locations in Latino areas of
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: Los Angeles looking for illegal workers, arresting dozens, but moobs
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: quickly gathered to stop them to assault them. Then the
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: rioting got wilder and more dangerous. Police were attacked, They
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: were even rammed with motorbikes, They were shot at with
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: commercial quality fireworks potentially lethal. Of course, the riders blocked traffic.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Of course they set cars alight. And what I thought
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: was really telling is that many in the crowd that
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: was attacking police and the National Guard waved Mexican flags
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: like there were some sort of invading foreign army, and
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: they chanted slogans in Spanish. Others wore Palestinian kaffirs and
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: came masked almost like hamas figures, like they were looking
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: for trouble.
• 20:58
  Speaker 10: Some would call them, or by any other variety of names.
• 21:03
  Speaker 10: But they're people that we run across routinely, city to city,
• 21:06
  Speaker 10: and this is what they do.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: And once again Democrat politicians were saying oh no to
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: the violence, yet still blaming Trump for calling in the
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: National Guard, blaming him saying he'd provoked the violence deliberally
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: to make himself look tough. Trump wasn't backing off, you know, by.
• 21:25
  Speaker 11: All the people, and we're not going to let him
• 21:27
  Speaker 11: get away with it.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: If we see danger to our country and to our citizens,
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: will be very very strong in terms of law and order.
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: It's about law and order.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: And Kamala Harris, who lost the election to Donald Trump,
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: the formed Vice president, actually called what you just saw,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: these riots are overwhelmingly peaceful. Overwhelmingly peaceful, Join us the country.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: So Foreign affairs writer Greg Sheridan of The Australian Greg
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: to me, this overwhelmingly peaceful demonstration actually looked like an
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: insurrection by I, among others, foreigners hated by Americans who
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: hate Trump or hate American Yes, Andrew, good to be
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: with you.
• 22:09
  Speaker 11: This is a very serious moment in America, and I
• 22:14
  Speaker 11: would cast it more widely. I think illegal immigration has
• 22:18
  Speaker 11: become a critical issue in many Western societies now. I
• 22:22
  Speaker 11: don't think we need to blame legal immigrants for this.
• 22:27
  Speaker 11: Illegal immigration has been fostered by the left and center
• 22:32
  Speaker 11: left of Western societies who have ceased to be law
• 22:36
  Speaker 11: abiding when it comes to immigration law. You know, there's
• 22:39
  Speaker 11: a great line in the movie Reagan, which I saw
• 22:42
  Speaker 11: the other night, where Ronald Reagan, as a governor in
• 22:44
  Speaker 11: the late nineteen sixties, says to the university administrators, where
• 22:47
  Speaker 11: do you get off telling students that they can pick
• 22:50
  Speaker 11: and choose.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: Which laws they have to abide by?
• 22:52
  Speaker 11: Now, the Democratic left in America, through the movement of
• 22:56
  Speaker 11: sanctuary cities and the like, has said it's simply cooperate
• 23:01
  Speaker 11: with federal law on immigration. That was not the view
• 23:04
  Speaker 11: of Barack Obama. Barack Obama deported four hundred thousand people
• 23:08
  Speaker 11: in twenty ten, more than half of whom had no
• 23:12
  Speaker 11: criminal record. They were just in the United States illegally.
• 23:15
  Speaker 11: But since then the left has decided that democracy is inadequate,
• 23:22
  Speaker 11: it doesn't give them the result that they want, and
• 23:25
  Speaker 11: that borders should be open and there should be no
• 23:27
  Speaker 11: immigration control. Now I think you're getting still a minority
• 23:31
  Speaker 11: of Hispanics. I mean, the interesting thing is the Hispanic
• 23:34
  Speaker 11: vote for Trump went up at the last election because
• 23:37
  Speaker 11: legal immigrants hate illegal immigration. This kind of disorder hurts
• 23:42
  Speaker 11: minorities in minority neighborhoods, and generally Hispanics have been terrific
• 23:46
  Speaker 11: immigrants in America. They joined the military in disproportionate numbers.
• 23:50
  Speaker 11: They're very patriotic, they're socially very conservative. But I do
• 23:54
  Speaker 11: think the moral blame for this rests overwhelmingly with the
• 23:58
  Speaker 11: American left.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Well, what do you make of the attempts by the
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: California governor, among others the mayor of the city that
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: Trump provoked this and maybe deliberately too by sending in
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: the National Guard, federalizing it, so I was associated with
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: the army, not under the control of the Los Angeles Police,
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: et etc. Well, there are a couple of things about it.
• 24:22
  Speaker 11: First of all, when the demonstrators first attacked the Immigration
• 24:28
  Speaker 11: and Customs enforcement people, the so called ICE agency, the
• 24:32
  Speaker 11: LA Police were very very slow to come to their assistance. Secondly,
• 24:36
  Speaker 11: there's been a really vicious habit now, including among local officials,
• 24:41
  Speaker 11: local Democrat officials, of doxing ICE agents publishing their names
• 24:47
  Speaker 11: and their private addresses and their photographs so that they
• 24:50
  Speaker 11: can be subject to vigilante terrorism later on. Now, these
• 24:54
  Speaker 11: are federal law enforcement agencies enforcing the law. If you
• 24:59
  Speaker 11: are an illegal limit, that means you're there illegally, which
• 25:02
  Speaker 11: means that you're liable to be deported. So Trump has
• 25:06
  Speaker 11: deployed the National Guard in the first instance to protect
• 25:10
  Speaker 11: federal property and the federal ICE agents. Now, if Gavin
• 25:15
  Speaker 11: Newsom and the mayor of Los Angeles were cooperating with
• 25:19
  Speaker 11: federal law enforcement in the way that they should, probably
• 25:22
  Speaker 11: it wouldn't be necessary to deploy the National Guard. There
• 25:25
  Speaker 11: has been a slight change by the Democrats this time.
• 25:28
  Speaker 11: I noticed Newsom and also the mayor say every time,
• 25:32
  Speaker 11: now you demonstrators must be peaceful, you must.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: Be law abiding.
• 25:35
  Speaker 11: I think they're aware that the politics of this runs
• 25:38
  Speaker 11: very heavily against them with most Americans, and so they
• 25:42
  Speaker 11: want to demonize Trump and blame Trump for the disorder.
• 25:46
  Speaker 11: And yet at the same time they recognize that they
• 25:49
  Speaker 11: can't just valorize the demonstration in the way they did
• 25:52
  Speaker 11: with Black Lives Matter, because ultimately that turns people against
• 25:58
  Speaker 11: against the Democrats. Police union in the country supported Trump,
• 26:02
  Speaker 11: and he won a plurality of the popular vote for
• 26:06
  Speaker 11: the first time ever last time, and illegal immigration was
• 26:09
  Speaker 11: the number one issue.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: I think, just quickly, Greg one Channel known reporter it
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: was hit boy rubber bullet issues.
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: The bullets of protesters moving them on through the heart
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: of la.
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: He was now. I saw Lauren to Marzi then do
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: appear on the Channel known news. Such is okay, but predictably,
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: Green Senator Sarah Hanson Young claimed the US police were
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: shooting Australian journalists and attacking the freedom of speech and
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: doing so, I mean, seriously, this rabbel rousing here is
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: that how you saw it, a deliberate attack on journalists.
• 26:54
  Speaker 11: No, no, certainly not. I feel nothing but sympathy for
• 26:58
  Speaker 11: one of our tribe of fellowst caught up in the
• 27:01
  Speaker 11: violence of covering a demonstration. I'm so glad that she's
• 27:05
  Speaker 11: not seriously hurt. That's a wonderful thing. Almost everything Sarah
• 27:08
  Speaker 11: Hanson Young says is utterly ludicrous. And I'm sure you,
• 27:12
  Speaker 11: like me Andrew, have covered riots and demonstrations and so on,
• 27:16
  Speaker 11: and you're lucky. You just thank god if you get
• 27:19
  Speaker 11: through without injury. And I feel sympathy for the journalist.
• 27:25
  Speaker 11: I feel sympathy for the police and the ice agents
• 27:28
  Speaker 11: who are trying to do.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: Their lawful job and are.
• 27:31
  Speaker 11: Being attacked and guy street thugs by nineteen thirty's fastest
• 27:36
  Speaker 11: street thugs in the process. And if Sarah Hanson Young
• 27:40
  Speaker 11: was a decent social democrat, those are the people she'd
• 27:43
  Speaker 11: be attacking.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: So true and words of journalists. You don't want to
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: run the risk of being shot by rubber bullets. Don't
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: stand down the street where police are firing at the
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: people next to you. That would actually quite help. Greg Sheridan,
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: thank you very much for your time. After the break
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: a climate alarms that have actually fought for years gets
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: Australia's top honor for the King's Birthday. And I'll tell
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: you why. I'm surprised we're in the King's Birthday Honors
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: because I see an old sparring partner of mine of
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: hul Gildberg, Emeritus Professor at Queensland University, has been given
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: the highest award, Companion of the Order of Australia for
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: service to climate science. What should I say? You've got
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: it for a warning for almost thirty years that the
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: Great Barrier reef is going going, if not gone already
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: because of global warming, only to find again and again
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: the reef keeps bouncing back. As he admitted yet again
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: in this online lecture three years ago.
• 28:47
  Speaker 6: You know in Australia the Southern Great Barrier reef is
• 28:49
  Speaker 6: sort of not unusually healthy at the moment.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: Now followed who Gildberg for decades, really even before nineteen
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: nine and say when he predicted coral reefs could be
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: eliminated from most areas of the world, But twenty one
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: hundred the next year he reckoned the Great Barrier reef
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: would be destroyed before then because corals couldn't fully recover
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: from bleaching episodes like the major event in nineteen ninety eight.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: The overall damage, he said was irreparable, except it wasn't,
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: as I kept pointing out to his annoyance. But on
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: he went in two thousand and six saying most Great
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: Barrier Reefs had seen where one hundred percent bleached, and
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: he was still at it six years ago.
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: Climate change hasn't gone away and really is a major
• 29:37
  Speaker 6: threat to places like the Great Barrier Reef and Australia
• 29:40
  Speaker 6: in general. We lost fifty percent of the reefs shuttle
• 29:43
  Speaker 6: to corals in the last four years, except.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: As the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority conceded just
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: two months ago, the reef actually started the summer of
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty three twenty four with high coral cover, and
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: while there have been some setback since to the reef,
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: like a cyclone among other things, it cautioned that the
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: reef goes through cycles of disturbance and recovery, just like
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: any natural system. Joining me as a scientist who alas
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: did not get an award today. In fact, he lost
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: his job as head of physics at Jones Cook University
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: because he kept warning correctly that his college predictions of
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: the death of the Great bery Reef were grossly exaggerated.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: I'm talking, of course, of marine physicist Peter ridd who
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: is now chair of the Australian Environment Foundation. Peter Red
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: great to see you. A Top Australian Ay award for
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: overhuled Guldberg is a deserved.
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: You've got to give it to old I. I he's
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: been incredibly successful in what he's trying to do over
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: a long time. And look, I'm not going to be
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: I'm not going to be ungracious. I'll give him my congratulations.
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: You know, in actual fact, over is not the worst
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: of these climate catastrophes. He's actually come out quite recently
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: and saying that, you know, we've got to go for
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: nuclear power. Now, you know, he gets a lot of
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: blowback from that because everybody on his side is the
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: anti nuclear and the rest of it. So I'm going
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: to give him it. But of course, look these awards therefore,
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: the establishment for the insiders and the insiders are in
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: the present, but the outsiders and the rebels, you know,
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: people like you and me, perhaps well we.
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: Own the future.
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: Because what you're actually seeing is a growing distrust for
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: a lot of this science. A favorite statistic of mine
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: is that polls in the America Show show that sixty
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: percent of Americans reckon that climate change has become quote
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: a religion that's being used to control us. So you
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: know the times are changing.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Look, I've got to say that personally, I found
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: him quite nice. Had a lovely debate with him on
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: the ABC and he did give him credit apologize for
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: falsely claiming I was being paid by Gina Reinhardt. He
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: didn't admit that. Maybe he's spoken a moment Vanger. I think,
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: what is the state of the Great Barrier Reef?
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: Record amounts of coral the last three years? We've never
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: had more coral. This is statistics from the Australian Institute
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: of Marine Science. And most remarkable, the type of coral
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: that is now in just remarkable amounts is the type
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: of coral that over and everybody else agrees is the
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: most susceptible to hot water. So how can you have
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: all these supposedly massively destructive coral bleaching hot water events
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: and end up with record amounts of coral, especially the
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: types of coral that are most susceptible. So it proves
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: that completely conclusively that it's been exaggerated. And remember it's
• 32:44
  Speaker 4: not just for thirty years that Ov's been doing it.
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: You go back to the early nineteen sixties when this started,
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: not on climate change, but the death of the great
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: Bewer reef has been predicted by these so called scientists
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: since marine biology got going on the reef in the
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: early nineteen sixties.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: Oh look, I just don't get it. I mean, middlely,
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: apparently it has been a great barrier. Reef authority is saying,
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: you know, it's been batted a little bit bit of
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: the recent cyclone, a crown of thorns, some runoff from whatever.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: But at least to its credit, it's now saying reefs
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: do bounce back. It's not irreparable the damage. That's probably
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: why the reef's been there for many, many thousands and
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: thousands of years. So what does it say about the
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: state of the science that Herb Guldberg, for all this charm,
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: gets this award and skeptics that you lose their jobs.
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: What it says is that science has become dominated by
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: the group think, by the insiders, essentially, and that's a
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: real problem where you can get something that is quite
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: clearly demonstrably.
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: Wrong, at least on the Great Barrier.
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: If you can argue about you know what's going to
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: happen with the climate in one hundred years, but what
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: has actually happened in the last thirty years on the
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: Great Barriage is demonstrably wrong and it means we really
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: need this science auditing, which I've been pushing for for
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: the last basically ten years.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: As you have, Peter ridd It's always great to talk
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: to you and it remains a tremendous injustice what was
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: done to you. And may you one day, with the
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: change of government get the Order of Australia that you
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: deserve for courage in the face of a mob. Thank
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: you so much for your time. After the break, Greta Tunberg,
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: it's arrested by Israel along with a boatload of some
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: strange people. Greta Tamberger's got what she wanted. She's been
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: arrested by Israel along with the rest of a boatload
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: of activists bound for Gaza.
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: If you see this video, we have been intercepted and
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces or
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: forces that support Israel.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: Tunberg, as she knows the former guru of global warming
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: had dropped a religious band of fossil fuels to join
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: this boatload of hard left activists in a diesel boat
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: to supposedly sail to Gaza to bring palasin Is just
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: a small trailer load of aid. But what company she
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: was keeping there now that activists who just saw there
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: seems an anti white racist to me, just for a
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: starch as German of Turkish background. And here she is
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: earlier telling a German woman that that woman had no
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: right to speak about pro Palasini radicals in her own
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: country because she was white. That immigration, what it does
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: to a country. Also on the boat is or was
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: this charming looking Brazilian who seems so pro the Hesblo
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: terrorist group that he was actually at the funeral of
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: its leader after Israel assassinated him. And Greta herself is
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: both anti German Israel. Joining me and Michael Danby, former
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: Federal Labor MP and Stephen Chavura, an author and a
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: senior lecture in history at Campion College, Michael Danby Greta
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: Tunberg wanted to highlight what she calls Israel's blockade of Gaza,
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: the alleged starvation of Palestinians. What did she actually illustrate?
• 36:37
  Speaker 10: Do you think that she's tiresome, that she's a latter
• 36:43
  Speaker 10: day Joan of arc who is trying to sort of
• 36:46
  Speaker 10: virtue signal to get us continue to be involved in
• 36:49
  Speaker 10: more publicity. Aren't people just so weary of this infantile
• 36:56
  Speaker 10: politics and manipulation that has so little to do with
• 36:59
  Speaker 10: the actual Does Greta Thunberg know that the Israelis accepted
• 37:03
  Speaker 10: the American opera of a ceasefire and that Hermas refused.
• 37:07
  Speaker 10: I think it's a good idea that you're going to
• 37:08
  Speaker 10: show her the forty seven minute horror film of what
• 37:12
  Speaker 10: Hamas did. But I'm glad they've peacefully arrested her and
• 37:16
  Speaker 10: they should swiftly deport it.
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: Stephen Already there was a mob today outside the Prime
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: Minister's office demanding help for Tunberg. What help should we give?
• 37:28
  Speaker 12: Well, I don't think she needs our help because she's
• 37:31
  Speaker 12: been intercepted by the Israelis and not by Hamas, And
• 37:36
  Speaker 12: I think what who needs helper? The protesters they seem
• 37:39
  Speaker 12: to be confused about who did.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: What in this whole conflict.
• 37:42
  Speaker 12: You see, they probably need to be told that it
• 37:44
  Speaker 12: was Harmas not Israel who murdered, raped, tortured, mutilated, kidnapped women,
• 37:52
  Speaker 12: just like Greta Tunberg, that it was Hamas, not Israel,
• 37:56
  Speaker 12: that built tunnels specifically for the purpose of killing Jews.
• 38:01
  Speaker 12: So I think that a little bit of education for
• 38:04
  Speaker 12: the protesters is in order, and they need to know that,
• 38:06
  Speaker 12: in fact, actual fact, now that Greta is with the Israelis,
• 38:10
  Speaker 12: she's actually safe and sound on.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: A very very good point. That is a very good point, Michael.
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: The government has already just denied a visa to Jewish
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: American tech expert HELLEL. Fuld, who was coming here to
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: Australia Melbourne, Sydney to raise funds for ambulances and first responders.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: What do you make of that band?
• 38:36
  Speaker 10: When I was in Parliament with Tony Burke, he put
• 38:38
  Speaker 10: his hand on my shoulder and said to me, Michael,
• 38:41
  Speaker 10: don't invite me to any Israeli or Jewish functions. That
• 38:45
  Speaker 10: was in two thousand and two. So we have a
• 38:47
  Speaker 10: pattern here. Andrew Fulled, the former Israeli Conservative minister who
• 38:53
  Speaker 10: was bart and most unjustly young Israeli tourists are being
• 38:58
  Speaker 10: subject to a thirteen page interrogation as they can't try
• 39:02
  Speaker 10: and enter Australia for normal tourism purposes about their military service,
• 39:07
  Speaker 10: which Burke knows well is compulsory in Israel. So no
• 39:11
  Speaker 10: interrogations of gardens thirteen thousand who have come from an
• 39:15
  Speaker 10: uncontrolled Humas area, but young Israelis when they're doing post
• 39:22
  Speaker 10: military tourism around Asian Australia thirteen pages, phone sees and
• 39:28
  Speaker 10: other unjust treatments by Tony Burke.
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: That's funny. You know, the first time I met Tony Burke,
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: he was working in the defense of George Pell against
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: false allegations of sexual abuse. He didn't want that much known,
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: he was doing it for his union. But may how
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: the murmurs turned. I just think this is a very
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: different Tony Burke. That's such a shame. Honestly, when I
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: look at a career like that, I'm thinking, are you
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: selling your soulmate? Or did I read you're wrong in
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: the first place? What do you make is absolutely wasted?
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 40:03
  Speaker 12: I think it needs to be pointed out that Tony
• 40:04
  Speaker 12: Burke's electorate of Watson is over fifty over fifty percent
• 40:09
  Speaker 12: of people in that electric were not born in Australia.
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: Twenty five percent Muslims.
• 40:13
  Speaker 12: It just has to be pointed out that what we
• 40:15
  Speaker 12: have had in Australia is a very irresponsible immigration policy
• 40:20
  Speaker 12: that is now affecting the virtue of Australian democracy. It's
• 40:24
  Speaker 12: affecting the free speech issue. The fact of the matter
• 40:26
  Speaker 12: is Tony Burke and the Labor Party is so skittish
• 40:29
  Speaker 12: about bringing in people like Hillel Fuold because some of
• 40:33
  Speaker 12: their seats have very, very large Muslim minorities. Now, not
• 40:38
  Speaker 12: all Muslims want to see the end of freedom of speech,
• 40:40
  Speaker 12: don't get me wrong. But when you bring in under
• 40:44
  Speaker 12: a ideology of multiculturalism people from regions in the world
• 40:48
  Speaker 12: with animosities towards Jews, animosities towards the West, it cannot
• 40:53
  Speaker 12: not affect our social cohesiveness and our ability to be
• 40:57
  Speaker 12: able to say things that are very valuable politically. And
• 41:00
  Speaker 12: that is exactly what is going on right now. It's
• 41:02
  Speaker 12: multiculturalism against freedom of speech.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: Oh you've seeing the same thing happening in Britain and
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: in France, where France's top author was sued for defaming Islam.
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's just ridiculous. In one of his one
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: of his great books, just quickly a little off the topic, Michael,
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: this is a great economic and social issue. Australia has
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: four of the least affordable housing situations in the world now,
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: with Sydney second only to Hong Kong ad Lady sixth,
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: Melbourne is ninth, Brisbane eleventh. That's according to a university study.
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: Although when you compare the median house price of the
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: median income, Sydney is in fact the most unfordable in
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: the world. Isn't that actually shameful in a country with
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: such relatively small population and a lot of land.
• 42:00
  Speaker 10: It is, and it's a shame that we haven't been
• 42:03
  Speaker 10: able to move more populations out of Sydney in particular.
• 42:07
  Speaker 10: But Australia's income is going backwards compared to where we
• 42:12
  Speaker 10: were and compared to other countries, and housing affordability, particularly
• 42:17
  Speaker 10: for young people. If you know any people under thirty
• 42:19
  Speaker 10: five living in Sydney, you know how terribly hard it
• 42:22
  Speaker 10: is for them, So bad results all around, and they're
• 42:27
  Speaker 10: paying more and more for their electricity prices as we
• 42:30
  Speaker 10: go down this renewables only badness.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: You've got any children looking to buy houses, well two
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: of them are, I can tell you this is just
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: a nightmare. Stephen Trevera and Michael Danby. Thank you very
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: much to you both after they break Esther Krackos's coming up.
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: Don't turn off. You know, there's something about being a
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: climate change for minutes that seems to make people save
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: them up, some grandiose like we're saving the planet Australia.
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: Of course it's got Chris Bowen who's now threatening a
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: climate tax on imports, so is still a prospect.
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: You know, I've had lots of meetings with steelmakers and
• 43:15
  Speaker 4: cement makers about these things over the past twelve months,
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: for example, getting their feedback, and we'll have more to
• 43:21
  Speaker 4: say during the course of this term.
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: But Britain has its own Chris Bowen. It's in fact
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: Bowen's friend ed Millerban, the Energy and Climate has Change Secretary.
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: Listen to this guy playing Jesus on the Insufferable podcast.
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: The rest is politics.
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: We've got this mission clean power by twenty thirty. If
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: we achieve that, and I'm absolutely determined we do, other
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: countries will say, look, look what Britain's been able to do,
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: we can do that too. So let's not have a
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: diminished view of Britain. We really matter in this So
• 43:54
  Speaker 3: many countries come to me and say you've got a
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: really important responsibility here.
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: You think you got that Chris bone Head bond when
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: you're making a point. Honestly, those guys peas in the
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: pond joining from London is writer, commentator, author and so
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: much more is the crack es the always great to
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: talk to you. Who on earth are these countries that
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: are telling Britain please set an example to the world
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: by beggaring your people. I suspect and I've got apologize
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: to you is that it might be her own Chris Bowen,
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: who is this turkey you've got there?
• 44:31
  Speaker 13: Yes, Ed Miliband probably one of the biggest disasters in
• 44:34
  Speaker 13: Kirs Starmer's cabinet. And that's really saying a lot. I'm
• 44:37
  Speaker 13: assuming that the countries at Miliband is referring to are
• 44:40
  Speaker 13: the countries that are really, you know, just eager to
• 44:43
  Speaker 13: to to impoverish their own people and and you know,
• 44:45
  Speaker 13: basically destroy their own economies. But you know the thing
• 44:48
  Speaker 13: is with this sort of complete obsession with net zero.
• 44:52
  Speaker 13: By the way, in that podcast and the rest of history,
• 44:54
  Speaker 13: you'll notice that the two presenters were so were doing
• 44:57
  Speaker 13: such an excellent job of pushing back by sitting back
• 44:59
  Speaker 13: quite and watching him basically preach like it was a
• 45:02
  Speaker 13: megachurch in Kansas. Anyway, you have companies like SSE, which
• 45:06
  Speaker 13: is one of the largest energy companies in Britain, that's
• 45:08
  Speaker 13: pulling three billion pounds worth of investment in renewable energy
• 45:12
  Speaker 13: because they say it's due to macroeconomic factors changing, which
• 45:16
  Speaker 13: in other words, means now that the Bank of England's
• 45:18
  Speaker 13: interest rate is not basically near zero even they can't
• 45:22
  Speaker 13: make the numbers work with this kind of investment. You
• 45:24
  Speaker 13: have all the alarm bells ringing saying this is a
• 45:26
  Speaker 13: fruitless task. Britain will be in the dark. Why twenty
• 45:29
  Speaker 13: thirty if we keep going this way, there is no investment,
• 45:31
  Speaker 13: There is no interest in this. If we want to
• 45:33
  Speaker 13: talk about energy, let's talk about making it plentiful and cheap.
• 45:37
  Speaker 13: But you know Ad Milerman is not interested. Instead, they're
• 45:39
  Speaker 13: just going to keep hiking up taxes on people. Ironically
• 45:42
  Speaker 13: labor government that says that they want to help the
• 45:43
  Speaker 13: working people, and eventually, you know, people will realize how
• 45:47
  Speaker 13: ridiculous this is. There's already been rumors about a cabinet
• 45:50
  Speaker 13: reshuffle in Kyirstama's government because people just cannot believe what
• 45:54
  Speaker 13: they are seeing. I mean, they are seeing their energy
• 45:56
  Speaker 13: bills go up, and yet the climate changement. It's so
• 46:01
  Speaker 13: detached from reality that he somehow thinks that he can
• 46:04
  Speaker 13: make this work. I mean, you know, Britain and Belgium
• 46:06
  Speaker 13: happened to be, what you know, two of the biggest
• 46:09
  Speaker 13: countries in Europe that are really gung ho for wind energy,
• 46:11
  Speaker 13: and now you have like countries like the Netherlands blaming
• 46:14
  Speaker 13: Britain and Belgium for stealing their wind, which actually the
• 46:18
  Speaker 13: reality is there's not enough wind energy to go once
• 46:21
  Speaker 13: you have like countries clustered around trying to generate energy
• 46:24
  Speaker 13: from wind, which is not very economically friendly and it's
• 46:27
  Speaker 13: actually costs a lot more on energy grid. You know,
• 46:30
  Speaker 13: it's just not economically viable. But no one is saying this.
• 46:33
  Speaker 13: These ministers that are making these decisions that are basically
• 46:35
  Speaker 13: impoverishing their citizens.
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: Well I was losing track there at one stage. I
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: thought it must have been describing our own Chris Bowen,
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: and then I realized they really are the glimmer tweens,
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: those two peas in a pod. Now I've got to
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: ask you the hard question, says so you don't just
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: come on here and get a free pass. It's the
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: correct are you actually a terrorist? And the reason I'm
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: asked that is because your own government's anti radicalization program
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: is called Prevent says one sign of terrorism, and it's
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: training its staff to recognize this and to intervene if
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: it sees it is people thinking that the cultural nationalism,
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: that's what it's called cultural nationalism. They're thinking that Western
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: culture is under threat from mass migration and a lack
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: of integration by certain ethnic and cultural groups, and esther
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: that sounds like you, are you a terrorist?
• 47:33
  Speaker 13: Unfortunately, I have to be honest, I think I am.
• 47:35
  Speaker 13: You know, there was a recent a study that came
• 47:37
  Speaker 13: out that said, on the current trajectuary, white Britain will
• 47:40
  Speaker 13: be a minority in Britain by twenty one hundred and
• 47:43
  Speaker 13: the whole view on the left is, oh, you know,
• 47:45
  Speaker 13: I don't care. I don't even know if I'm white,
• 47:47
  Speaker 13: says one blue eyed, Firs skin journalist who I'm assuming things.
• 47:51
  Speaker 13: He happens to be Japanese. Then, but is this complete
• 47:54
  Speaker 13: lack of reality by many people that don't understand that
• 47:57
  Speaker 13: actually culture means something and you cannot catch the reality
• 48:01
  Speaker 13: that once you have the native population declining to such
• 48:03
  Speaker 13: an extent, it has a significant blowback on national culture
• 48:07
  Speaker 13: as well. But once you say that, apparently.
• 48:09
  Speaker 5: You're a terrorist.
• 48:10
  Speaker 13: So now we're all terrorists. Were saying, actually, we don't
• 48:12
  Speaker 13: want countries that we live in and we know and
• 48:14
  Speaker 13: love to change beyond recognition.
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: I have to say that. Listen, I'd like to what
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: you said there about the rest is history thing. I
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: know I'm straying off the path is that. But you've
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: got a fraud of a show where you've got Alistair
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: Campbell he used to be Tony Blas Prayer Press, you know, guru,
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: and you've got Royal Stewart, who supposedly the conservative, both
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: as left as each other. It's a total fraud, is the.
• 48:43
  Speaker 13: It's a complete joke. I mean, the idea that Roy
• 48:45
  Speaker 13: Stewart thinks of himself as any kind of conservative, low learner,
• 48:48
  Speaker 13: moderate conservative just shows how far the part of his sunk.
• 48:51
  Speaker 13: It is utterly laughable.
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: Absolutely absolutely, it's the crack. Always great to talk to you,
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: Thank you so much. That's it from me, Sherry match
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: and up next. Goodnight,
