- 0:05Speaker 2: This is the Wider Panalty Show.
- 0:09Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Rida Panekey Show coming
- 0:12Speaker 3: up tonight.
- 0:13Speaker 4: Liberal Senator just Into Namba.
- 0:15Speaker 3: Jim Proprice lashes out at Susan Lee over damaging party
- 0:19Speaker 3: room leaks and talking about leaks, here's another one. A
- 0:22Speaker 3: little known Victorian MP launches an astonishing attack against Andrew
- 0:26Speaker 3: Hasty in a Liberal party room meeting.
- 0:29Speaker 4: Dan While will join me to discuss that.
- 0:31Speaker 3: Shortly, Barrista Lama Kolaris will be here to explain why
- 0:35Speaker 3: Victorians should be deeply concerned about the state government's Indigenous
- 0:40Speaker 3: Treaty bill. The Great Army Horowitz will have the latest
- 0:43Speaker 3: from the US, and later in the hour, I'll speak
- 0:46Speaker 3: to the man behind a new groundbreaking documentary, and Left
- 0:50Speaker 3: Is Losing It features this charming lady getting a dose
- 0:53Speaker 3: of instant karma.
- 0:59Speaker 4: Start Yeah, but first.
- 1:06Speaker 3: Liberal Senator just Into namberjmper Prize has lashed out at
- 1:09Speaker 3: opposition leader Susan Lee, demanding that she stop the leaks
- 1:13Speaker 3: and get the party under control. Following several instances of
- 1:17Speaker 3: anonymous MPs verballying the likes of Andrew Hasty and former
- 1:21Speaker 3: leader Peter Dutton in the media.
- 1:24Speaker 4: Here's what Center Price had to say.
- 1:26Speaker 5: The leaking of a verbal submission to quite frankly lazy
- 1:33Speaker 5: journalists is ridiculous. It's another attempt at pylon on Andrew
- 1:40Speaker 5: Hasty and also verbaling our former leader Peter Dutton, and
- 1:47Speaker 5: something has to be done. I've written to our leader
- 1:50Speaker 5: about my concerns about backgrounding and about leaking to the media.
- 1:56Speaker 5: Enough to us.
- 1:58Speaker 3: Joining me now is deputy executive director at the Institute
- 2:01Speaker 3: of Public Affairs and Wild Dance. Senator Price also made
- 2:05Speaker 3: it clear in that interview that Andrew Hasty is a
- 2:08Speaker 3: man of integrity and conviction and has her full support.
- 2:13Speaker 3: They would certainly make a formidable team to take on labor.
- 2:17Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 2:17Speaker 7: I think that's right. And there's a couple of things here.
- 2:19Speaker 7: There's a number of individuals who are on the backbench
- 2:24Speaker 7: where it seems a bit strange to Andrew Hasty. Senator Price,
- 2:28Speaker 7: plus others like Garth Hamilton or Henry Pike, for example,
- 2:31Speaker 7: who have been making important contributions to debate recently.
- 2:34Speaker 8: And I just think when you.
- 2:36Speaker 7: Look at the current situation, the coalition opposition is not
- 2:40Speaker 7: taking the fight to the government in any meaningful way
- 2:43Speaker 7: on the big issues that Australians care about, whether it's
- 2:45Speaker 7: net zero, migration, Australian values for example, this is completely
- 2:50Speaker 7: missing from debate. There is not much time in order
- 2:53Speaker 7: to mount a case against the government, and you need
- 2:55Speaker 7: your best performers on the front bench engaging in that debate.
- 3:00Speaker 7: So you know, the number one thing here is to
- 3:02Speaker 7: make sure that these very bad policies are being debated
- 3:06Speaker 7: and contested.
- 3:06Speaker 8: But at the moment that's just not happening.
- 3:08Speaker 7: And I don't think the Coalition Opposition has the right
- 3:11Speaker 7: cattle on the front bench.
- 3:15Speaker 3: Well further on Andrew Hasty, The Australian reports, Liberal MP
- 3:20Speaker 3: Mary Aldred, who no one has heard of her, took
- 3:24Speaker 3: aim at Hasty in a party room meeting in Canberra
- 3:27Speaker 3: on Tuesday, telling the former front bencher she had no
- 3:31Speaker 3: respect for the way he was conducting himself. She said
- 3:34Speaker 3: the way he handled his front bench resignation and his
- 3:38Speaker 3: campaign on several policies including industry protection, migration net zero,
- 3:45Speaker 3: could cause the Coalition to go further backwards at the
- 3:49Speaker 3: next election. Dan this attack was set to have left
- 3:53Speaker 3: a fellow MP's stunt, possibly because like me, they've never
- 3:57Speaker 3: heard of Mary Aldred before.
- 4:00Speaker 4: Why would someone such as.
- 4:02Speaker 3: Her, who in my mind is never laid at glove
- 4:04Speaker 3: on labor.
- 4:06Speaker 4: Beverbaling a possible future leader.
- 4:11Speaker 7: Look, I'm not too sure, but the point that I
- 4:14Speaker 7: would make here is that what we need is more
- 4:18Speaker 7: members of Parliament speaking out on more things, more often.
- 4:21Speaker 8: Now.
- 4:21Speaker 7: The idea that everything has to be kept behind closed
- 4:24Speaker 7: doors is not consistent with where the Australian community is.
- 4:28Speaker 7: The things that Andrew Hasty has been speaking out on
- 4:31Speaker 7: are things that are care about and even if you
- 4:33Speaker 7: don't agree with what he's.
- 4:34Speaker 8: Saying, debate the issue.
- 4:36Speaker 7: Debate the policy issue rather than trying to attack the player.
- 4:41Speaker 7: And I think this goes to a problem, which is
- 4:43Speaker 7: because the Coalition had a pretty ordinary ten years in government,
- 4:47Speaker 7: certainly from twenty fifteen onwards. Whether it was the failed
- 4:51Speaker 7: COVID response, whether it was signing up to net zero,
- 4:53Speaker 7: whether it was running up hundreds of billions of dollars
- 4:55Speaker 7: in debt. They need to have a clean break with
- 4:58Speaker 7: the past. They need to show the public that they
- 5:00Speaker 7: have changed. They need to show the public they understand
- 5:02Speaker 7: the issues facing Australia's future. Instead they're just talking about
- 5:05Speaker 7: day to day policy issues that are of little relevance
- 5:08Speaker 7: to the person on the street. So I think the
- 5:10Speaker 7: one person that's spoken out, Andrew Hasty, is now being
- 5:14Speaker 7: the target.
- 5:14Speaker 8: It just doesn't make sense to me.
- 5:18Speaker 3: It doesn't What about the analysis here that his campaign
- 5:24Speaker 3: on issues like net zero, migration industry protection is going
- 5:29Speaker 3: to set the party back.
- 5:31Speaker 4: I think any sensible.
- 5:33Speaker 3: Person would say the party is at rock bottom. They
- 5:36Speaker 3: are recording currently the lowest primary figures they've ever had
- 5:42Speaker 3: in any News poll since they started measuring the primary vote,
- 5:46Speaker 3: and Australians are crying out for real choice. They want
- 5:50Speaker 3: a debate on these key issues, not some one party
- 5:54Speaker 3: system where Liberal and labor almost indistinguishable from each other.
- 5:58Speaker 3: But there is certain a counter view to that that
- 6:03Speaker 3: the likes of Andrew Hasty and Senator Price and others
- 6:06Speaker 3: who are pushing for Australia to abandon net zero, pushing
- 6:10Speaker 3: for low migration, Well that's out of touch with modern Australia.
- 6:15Speaker 7: What's your take, Well, that's inconsistent with the last two elections.
- 6:22Speaker 8: You know, this is what this is forgets me.
- 6:25Speaker 7: The party has never been more to the left and
- 6:28Speaker 7: they've never been performing worse.
- 6:29Speaker 8: I mean don't forget.
- 6:31Speaker 7: I don't think most parliamentarians in the Liberal Party understand
- 6:35Speaker 7: how catastrophic the loss was. This is the worst performance
- 6:37Speaker 7: of the Liberal Party in its history since nineteen forty
- 6:40Speaker 7: three when the UAP got rubbed out of existence. You've
- 6:42Speaker 7: got to understand that the community no longer respects the
- 6:45Speaker 7: Liberal Party.
- 6:46Speaker 8: You know, this has to sink in at some point.
- 6:49Speaker 7: And the point that I would make is, Okay, the
- 6:52Speaker 7: so called moderates, and I'm not talking about any particular individual,
- 6:55Speaker 7: but the so called moderates in the party, what are
- 6:57Speaker 7: the policies that you're advocating for? They will run which
- 7:00Speaker 7: other people's policies. But let's take net zero. What do
- 7:02Speaker 7: you want net zero by twenty forty? Do you want
- 7:05Speaker 7: to double immigration? In take do you want to have
- 7:07Speaker 7: four flags flying rather than three flags? You know, what
- 7:10Speaker 7: are the actual policies that you believe are going to
- 7:12Speaker 7: get the coalition back into government at least Andrew Hasty
- 7:15Speaker 7: and others like Senators Enterprise are communicating policy views. Why
- 7:19Speaker 7: don't you actually have your own policy views and debate that.
- 7:22Speaker 7: But instead they hide behind these leaks that are coming
- 7:25Speaker 7: out of forever rather than having their own ideas of
- 7:28Speaker 7: how to get the Coalition back into government.
- 7:32Speaker 3: And they still as a party have no position on
- 7:35Speaker 3: these key issues.
- 7:36Speaker 4: I mean, how many more reviews? How many more months.
- 7:39Speaker 3: Are they going to waste before they actually come to
- 7:42Speaker 3: a position.
- 7:43Speaker 4: And I know what they stand for.
- 7:45Speaker 3: I don't know how they expect dear Electra to know
- 7:47Speaker 3: what they stand for when they themselves don't have policies
- 7:51Speaker 3: in this area yet and we're still doing endless reviews
- 7:54Speaker 3: to figure out who we are.
- 7:55Speaker 4: Now, let's move on to real.
- 7:57Speaker 3: Estate experts warning that surging crime rates and soaring property
- 8:02Speaker 3: taxes are forcing Victorian home buyers to look into state.
- 8:07Speaker 3: Speaking at a Property Council event this week, industry leader
- 8:11Speaker 3: Andrew Valentine said that while Melbourne offers one of Australia's
- 8:15Speaker 3: more affordable markets, it has less appeal due to rising
- 8:19Speaker 3: crime and taxes.
- 8:21Speaker 4: Dan The problem is also.
- 8:22Speaker 3: Affecting retail investors and commercial property builders who are now
- 8:27Speaker 3: looking to invest in other cities where crime rates are
- 8:31Speaker 3: lower and there's probably a little bit less red tape
- 8:33Speaker 3: and less taxes on property.
- 8:39Speaker 7: Well, crime and taxes are bad things. Who would have
- 8:41Speaker 7: thought that, you know, and this is you know, this
- 8:44Speaker 7: is another example of how you know, it's quite stunning
- 8:47Speaker 7: actually for someone to say that, well, we're not going
- 8:49Speaker 7: to invest or, you know, investment is going to go
- 8:51Speaker 7: down in Victoria because of crime. I've not heard that before. So,
- 8:54Speaker 7: you know, it seems that every week that goes by,
- 8:57Speaker 7: things get worse and worse in Victoria. Now I wonder
- 9:00Speaker 7: whether the public now thinks that things are just so
- 9:02Speaker 7: bad in Victoria that that has can't be fixed. And
- 9:06Speaker 7: the thing that the opposition in Victoria needs to understand
- 9:09Speaker 7: is they're going to have to have a couple of
- 9:10Speaker 7: big ideas to actually convince people that the state can
- 9:13Speaker 7: be fixed. They're a bit obsessed with talking about relatively
- 9:17Speaker 7: small things like the cost of machete bins, which I
- 9:19Speaker 7: agree it's a total waste of money, and I understand
- 9:21Speaker 7: they're trying to say that this goes to the point
- 9:23Speaker 7: that the government can't manage money. But you've got to
- 9:26Speaker 7: actually show the public that you understand that Victoria is
- 9:28Speaker 7: fundamentally broken and convince them that you're going to be
- 9:31Speaker 7: able to fix those problems. So now is the time
- 9:33Speaker 7: for the opposition in Victoria to be bold with a
- 9:36Speaker 7: couple of very big ideas. That will go to the
- 9:38Speaker 7: community about how they're going to get Victoria fixed.
- 9:44Speaker 4: Absolutely, go tough on crime.
- 9:47Speaker 3: That is a vote winner any election, let alone this
- 9:51Speaker 3: one when crime has just been a top issue in
- 9:55Speaker 3: this state. It leads the news just about every night,
- 9:58Speaker 3: it's on the front pages consistently. But also when it
- 10:01Speaker 3: comes to taxes, Dan, I mean, have we heard anything
- 10:04Speaker 3: about them doing something about land tax or other taxes
- 10:11Speaker 3: that are driving mom and dad investors out of the market.
- 10:14Speaker 3: It seems to be they're too timid to really tackle
- 10:18Speaker 3: those big issues.
- 10:22Speaker 8: Yeah, so far that seems to be the case.
- 10:24Speaker 7: Now, the charitable view would be that there's I don't
- 10:26Speaker 7: know what is at twelve thirty months or the next election,
- 10:28Speaker 7: so there's plenty of time to roll this out. But
- 10:31Speaker 7: you know, I really think that the issue here is
- 10:33Speaker 7: you've got to talk about, as I said, a couple
- 10:35Speaker 7: of big things that matter to the community. Taxes is
- 10:38Speaker 7: one of them, but clearly the cost of energy and
- 10:40Speaker 7: policies like net zero, and this is an area where
- 10:43Speaker 7: the Victorian government's gone further than any other jurisdiction and
- 10:46Speaker 7: all you have to do is look at the consequences.
- 10:49Speaker 7: But I also think, you know, reader. The treaty is
- 10:52Speaker 7: a massive deal. It is a massive issue. It affects
- 10:55Speaker 7: the lives of every single Victorian. It will permanently change
- 10:59Speaker 7: the structure of Victoria to have a two tier in society.
- 11:01Speaker 7: And so far the opposition, while they oppose it, they're
- 11:04Speaker 7: not going to campaign on it yet. It's one of
- 11:06Speaker 7: the biggest negative crazy Victoria in its entire history.
- 11:10Speaker 8: So that would be number one for me.
- 11:15Speaker 3: You're absolutely right, And later in the program I'll be
- 11:18Speaker 3: speaking to a leading barrister about just how impactful that
- 11:23Speaker 3: treaty is, and I think Victorians really are not fully
- 11:29Speaker 3: aware of how broad its powers are and its influence
- 11:33Speaker 3: and how divisive it is now. Earlier today, Senator Claire
- 11:38Speaker 3: Chandler asked a rather simple question of sex discrimination Commissioner
- 11:43Speaker 3: and a Cody, and she got this astonishing response.
- 11:48Speaker 9: There are a range of people who identify as women
- 11:53Speaker 9: who are women.
- 11:54Speaker 4: Did you mean that biological males can be women.
- 11:58Speaker 9: Men? So I think we have different language that perhaps
- 12:03Speaker 9: you're using that I would use. So I don't understand
- 12:06Speaker 9: the term biological men, right.
- 12:10Speaker 4: This might be a short trunch of questions.
- 12:12Speaker 3: Then she really says she doesn't understand terms like biological men.
- 12:19Speaker 3: I've listened to the full answer, and Dan, it does
- 12:22Speaker 3: not get better. In fact, it gets worse. How could
- 12:26Speaker 3: someone like her be in that role. She is the
- 12:30Speaker 3: sex discrimination Commissioner, she's supposed to be there in part
- 12:33Speaker 3: to protect the rights of girls and women, and she
- 12:37Speaker 3: doesn't seem to be able to define one.
- 12:41Speaker 7: Well, we're governed by morons, and you know, I just
- 12:45Speaker 7: don't you know, how much further can this go? How
- 12:48Speaker 7: much longer can this go on for? We've send this
- 12:50Speaker 7: time and time again. There was that famous one of
- 12:52Speaker 7: Senator Antique, you know who stitched up one of the
- 12:56Speaker 7: I think it was the health officer who couldn't define
- 12:58Speaker 7: what a woman was, and they sort of go on
- 13:00Speaker 7: these long and elaborate sort of you know, sort of
- 13:04Speaker 7: non answers, and people just look at it. Normal people
- 13:07Speaker 7: look at it and go, what you can't tell me
- 13:08Speaker 7: what a man or a woman is? I mean, if
- 13:11Speaker 7: you can't define what that is, how can you have
- 13:13Speaker 7: confidence in anything else that they do? And unfortunately, the
- 13:18Speaker 7: governing bodies of our society, in the public service more generally,
- 13:21Speaker 7: is just infiltrated with these people that have been completely
- 13:25Speaker 7: taken over by this radical gender ideology and it's sending
- 13:30Speaker 7: them down all of these bizarre rabbit holes.
- 13:34Speaker 3: Well, we went to anacote last week to get some
- 13:38Speaker 3: sort of commentary on a male sexual predator who identifies
- 13:43Speaker 3: as female being housed with women in a Victorian prison.
- 13:48Speaker 3: No comment on that, and I think I can understand
- 13:51Speaker 3: why there was no comment on that. Hearing that answer today,
- 13:53Speaker 3: it is absolutely shocking.
- 13:55Speaker 4: It's not good enough.
- 13:57Speaker 3: Now, before you go, I just want to get your
- 13:58Speaker 3: take on the story The Daily Telegraph had today on
- 14:02Speaker 3: Australian taxpayers funding a multi year project run by the
- 14:06Speaker 3: Chinese Communist Party to drive renewables uptake and improve air
- 14:12Speaker 3: quality in Shandong Province in eastern China. Australia is helping
- 14:18Speaker 3: to fund the six hundred million dollar project through it's
- 14:22Speaker 3: thirteen point five million dollars in contributions to the Asian
- 14:26Speaker 3: Development Banks Clean Energy Fund, which has put one point one.
- 14:30Speaker 4: Million dollars into the initiative.
- 14:32Speaker 3: DAN, why should a single Australian dollar go towards a
- 14:37Speaker 3: project like this?
- 14:41Speaker 7: Well, exactly right, and this is great reporting from Charlie
- 14:44Speaker 7: Chawick at the The Daily Telegraph to expose this. I mean,
- 14:47Speaker 7: what we need is an audit of all of this
- 14:48Speaker 7: money that's going overseas. I mean, we saw what happened
- 14:51Speaker 7: in the Trump administration with USAID and the kind of
- 14:54Speaker 7: ridiculous things that taxpayer money was going through there, and
- 14:57Speaker 7: I suspect we have a proper, full, transparent and audit
- 15:01Speaker 7: of where our money is going overseas that it would
- 15:03Speaker 7: show similar things as we're seeing now. And look, the
- 15:06Speaker 7: reality is that yes, foreign aid can play an important role,
- 15:09Speaker 7: but it needs to be in Australia's national interest, needs
- 15:11Speaker 7: to be safeguarding our national interests and the interest that
- 15:14Speaker 7: we have abroad, and plainly sending taxpayer dollars to China
- 15:19Speaker 7: for these kind of activities is well outside the scope
- 15:23Speaker 7: of any meaningful definition of what's in Australia's national interest.
- 15:28Speaker 4: Dan Wile, thank you for your time tonight.
- 15:32Speaker 8: Now.
- 15:32Speaker 3: Two years ago, Australians resoundingly rejected the Voice, despite being
- 15:36Speaker 3: told it was nothing more than a modest change to
- 15:38Speaker 3: the constitution.
- 15:39Speaker 4: Well, here in Victoria, we're about.
- 15:41Speaker 3: To get not only an Indigenous Voice to stay Parliament,
- 15:44Speaker 3: but also a treaty. This new Indigenous only body will
- 15:48Speaker 3: be funded by Victorian taxpayers, but it will not be
- 15:51Speaker 3: responsible or accountable to Victorian taxpayers or the Victorian Parliament.
- 15:57Speaker 3: And far from being a modest change, it is designed
- 16:00Speaker 3: to be radical in its ideology and influence. Joining me
- 16:04Speaker 3: now is barrister and member of the Victorian Bar Council,
- 16:08Speaker 3: Lana Claris. Lana, you wrote about the Voice and Treaty
- 16:11Speaker 3: in the Australian newspaper.
- 16:13Speaker 4: Explain to my audience why you say.
- 16:15Speaker 3: They should be deeply worried by this legislation.
- 16:20Speaker 10: Well, thank you for having me here, Rita. The first
- 16:23Speaker 10: point to make is that there are two aspects to
- 16:26Speaker 10: this legislation. The first is the Statewide Treaty Bill and
- 16:30Speaker 10: the second is the Statewide Treaty. So taking the bill
- 16:33Speaker 10: to begin with, whilst it's called a statewide Treaty Bill,
- 16:38Speaker 10: it is not in fact a treaty at all, because,
- 16:41Speaker 10: as we know, a treaty is an agreement between two
- 16:44Speaker 10: international states. So the first point is that this is
- 16:48Speaker 10: not an agreement, It is a piece of legislation. The
- 16:51Speaker 10: second point is that it is not an agreement between
- 16:53Speaker 10: two international states. So we need to put out of
- 16:57Speaker 10: our minds the fact that this bill is creating a treaty.
- 17:00Speaker 4: What in fact it is actually doing.
- 17:02Speaker 10: The bill itself is very similar to a found in constitution.
- 17:07Speaker 5: Wow.
- 17:08Speaker 10: So what this bill is actually doing is it is
- 17:12Speaker 10: seeking to establish a new government in our state, an
- 17:15Speaker 10: Indigenous only government. It establishes a legislature, which is the
- 17:19Speaker 10: first People's Assembly. It also establishes a justice Arm, and
- 17:23Speaker 10: it establishes a truth telling Arm. So that's why I
- 17:28Speaker 10: say we need to be deeply concerned about this, because
- 17:31Speaker 10: this bill is creating an entirely new government in our
- 17:35Speaker 10: state and indigenous, a race based government.
- 17:37Speaker 3: Yes, and the notion of a treaty suggests there's some
- 17:41Speaker 3: negotiation between two parties.
- 17:43Speaker 4: There seems to be none of that.
- 17:44Speaker 3: It just seems to be a list of demands and
- 17:47Speaker 3: a whole lot of taxpayer dollars and powers being given
- 17:53Speaker 3: to this new body.
- 17:54Speaker 10: Well, absolutely, I think that Victorians are completely unaware of
- 17:57Speaker 10: what's going on. I think there have been some negotiations
- 18:00Speaker 10: going on, but in secret. There's no way the average
- 18:04Speaker 10: Victorian on the street would understand that this bill is
- 18:07Speaker 10: creating an entirely new race based body.
- 18:10Speaker 3: What are the checks and balances on the powers this
- 18:14Speaker 3: body will have?
- 18:15Speaker 10: Well, because essentially it is the creation of this new government,
- 18:21Speaker 10: it will be funded by us, by Victorian taxpayers. But
- 18:26Speaker 10: this new indigenous government will not be accountable to our
- 18:29Speaker 10: government in any way, and we don't get a vote
- 18:32Speaker 10: in relation to it either, So in other words, we're
- 18:35Speaker 10: paying for it, but if we don't like what it's doing,
- 18:38Speaker 10: we can't vote it out. Now, this violates the absolute
- 18:43Speaker 10: fundamental principle of the Westminster system, which is responsible in
- 18:46Speaker 10: accountable government.
- 18:48Speaker 4: It's astonishing.
- 18:49Speaker 3: How is it going to impact non Indigenous Victorians other
- 18:53Speaker 3: than the fact that we're paying for it and there's
- 18:55Speaker 3: no accountability.
- 18:56Speaker 4: But will they have a say in laws or.
- 19:01Speaker 3: Anything that's happening across the state that impacts non Indigenous
- 19:05Speaker 3: Victorians as well.
- 19:07Speaker 10: So the two aspects, taking the bill as the first aspect,
- 19:12Speaker 10: it is creating this new government, so that means everyday
- 19:18Speaker 10: Victorians are going to have to deal with two layers
- 19:20Speaker 10: of bureaucracy. And this is occurring at a time when
- 19:24Speaker 10: investment and business is fleeing our state because of increased taxes,
- 19:30Speaker 10: increase bureaucracy, you know, a cost of energy and all
- 19:33Speaker 10: these other factors.
- 19:34Speaker 4: This is the worst possible time.
- 19:37Speaker 10: To create a new government with an entirely new level
- 19:41Speaker 10: of red tape around it. But can I also say
- 19:44Speaker 10: that in relation to the second aspect, which is the
- 19:48Speaker 10: statewide Treaty, which is a separate thirty four thirty four
- 19:51Speaker 10: page document, and I note it is the first treaty,
- 19:55Speaker 10: so they've made it very clear that there's going to
- 19:56Speaker 10: be many, many more treaties. This is just the first one.
- 19:59Speaker 10: This will impact everyday Victorians because it requires, for example,
- 20:04Speaker 10: truth telling as part of our education system from what
- 20:08Speaker 10: they call foundation, which I believe is PREP, but it
- 20:11Speaker 10: could be before PREP all the way up until year twelve.
- 20:14Speaker 10: So our children are going to be taught truth telling.
- 20:19Speaker 3: And that's an interesting term I would use them. I
- 20:22Speaker 3: would use the bunny as as well, because it's someone
- 20:25Speaker 3: else's truth may be very different to the actual truth,
- 20:29Speaker 3: and that can't really be challenged in.
- 20:32Speaker 4: The way it's been prescribed.
- 20:34Speaker 3: You talk about these two layers of government, How will
- 20:38Speaker 3: new legislation be impacted by that? So if you're in
- 20:42Speaker 3: the Victorian Parliament, the one we all vote for, and
- 20:45Speaker 3: you want to introduce some new legislation, do you have
- 20:47Speaker 3: to get some sort of buying from the Indigenous Parliament
- 20:53Speaker 3: or at least get some sort of idea If they're
- 20:57Speaker 3: going to be approving of whatever it is you're proposing.
- 21:01Speaker 10: Yes, So any new bill that is introduced into Parliament
- 21:05Speaker 10: must they throughout the bill the mandatory terms such as
- 21:10Speaker 10: must so every new bill must have tabled with it
- 21:15Speaker 10: what is called a statement of treaty compatibility.
- 21:19Speaker 3: Statement of treaty compatibility. That is fascinating. So every new
- 21:23Speaker 3: bill must be compatible with the treaty and the ideology
- 21:29Speaker 3: behind that. And I noticed that too when you read
- 21:32Speaker 3: the document. It's all must must, It's the language.
- 21:36Speaker 4: Is very forceful. Indeed, it is so that is going
- 21:39Speaker 4: to impact every Victorian.
- 21:40Speaker 3: That's not just something that's going to impact indigenous Victorian.
- 21:43Speaker 4: Absolutely.
- 21:45Speaker 10: I would just note as well, in relation to the
- 21:47Speaker 10: statement of treaty compatibility, this involves an element of compelled speech,
- 21:51Speaker 10: because if you have an elected representative who doesn't agree that,
- 21:55Speaker 10: for example, there are ongoing injustices as a result of colonization,
- 22:00Speaker 10: putting words into the mouths of our elected representative. This
- 22:04Speaker 10: is a form of compelled.
- 22:05Speaker 3: Speech, absolutely, and it is a document that is radical.
- 22:10Speaker 4: I think again Victorians.
- 22:11Speaker 3: Don't understand that because most of them don't have the
- 22:13Speaker 3: time to read the full document and the coverage of
- 22:16Speaker 3: it has been pretty scanned because the Liberals, though they
- 22:20Speaker 3: say they oppose it, they don't seem to be campaigning
- 22:22Speaker 3: on it. So there's not a great deal of debate
- 22:25Speaker 3: and analysis of this document.
- 22:27Speaker 4: But it is deeply radical in its language. It is.
- 22:32Speaker 3: The blackest band view of this country and its history
- 22:36Speaker 3: it is.
- 22:37Speaker 10: It will completely change the way the state will be governed.
- 22:41Speaker 10: As I said, two governments, separate layer of bureocracy. If
- 22:45Speaker 10: your audience is sick of acknowledgments of country, the separatism
- 22:49Speaker 10: is going to get so much more worse. It's going
- 22:52Speaker 10: to be much worse. There will be mandating flying of
- 22:56Speaker 10: Aboriginal and torrestrate islander flags on all Victorian government buildings, mandated, mandated,
- 23:01Speaker 10: It's part of the treaty. And so the current cohesion
- 23:05Speaker 10: split that we're seeing in our state at the moment
- 23:07Speaker 10: is only going to get so much worse.
- 23:09Speaker 3: And just before you go given the extraordinary power this
- 23:13Speaker 3: body is going to have and taxpayer funds, is there
- 23:16Speaker 3: going to be any scrutiny on who can participate, who
- 23:19Speaker 3: can be elected, Because even within the Indigenous community, there
- 23:24Speaker 3: is a fair bit of debate about people who identify
- 23:27Speaker 3: as Indigenous and they're not always accepted.
- 23:29Speaker 4: How is that going to be handled?
- 23:31Speaker 10: Well, this is one of the most shocking parts of
- 23:34Speaker 10: the bill.
- 23:34Speaker 4: I mean, it's all shocking.
- 23:35Speaker 10: But the First People's Assembly, which is essentially the legislature
- 23:40Speaker 10: of this new government, will have complete power over who
- 23:44Speaker 10: can vote for members of the First People's Assembly and
- 23:48Speaker 10: how the elections are to be conducted. So, if Victorians
- 23:53Speaker 10: are concerned about our indigenous brothers and sisters, which of
- 23:56Speaker 10: course we all are because we show an amazing amount
- 23:59Speaker 10: of goodwill towards the Indigenous community, this is not the
- 24:02Speaker 10: way to go about fixing it. This is a blueprint
- 24:06Speaker 10: for a one party social estate. Yeah, that will govern
- 24:09Speaker 10: our Indigenous Victorians. This is not going to help anything.
- 24:12Speaker 3: It's not going to help the Indigenous community and it
- 24:15Speaker 3: certainly isn't going.
- 24:16Speaker 4: To help Victoria.
- 24:17Speaker 3: The racial division this would inspire is just frightening. Lana Klaris,
- 24:22Speaker 3: thank you so much for your time to thank you
- 24:24Speaker 3: very much. Stelterkma left he is losing it. Plus the
- 24:28Speaker 3: latest from the US, including a fresh poll showing that
- 24:30Speaker 3: Donald Trump has the steadiest approval rating of any president ever.
- 24:35Speaker 4: Mi Horowitz has the details.
- 24:47Speaker 3: You're watching the Riada panning your show, and it's time
- 24:50Speaker 3: for lefties losing it. Let's start with a young deranged
- 24:53Speaker 3: woman attacking conservatives David Cat and Cam Higbee and then
- 24:57Speaker 3: getting mace.
- 24:58Speaker 4: This is what is commonly a refre to us effing.
- 25:01Speaker 3: Around and finding out or just instant karma.
- 25:05Speaker 11: The whole Charlie, start, start, start.
- 25:30Speaker 3: And like any good left us, the cry bully ended
- 25:33Speaker 3: up acting like the victim when faced with the consequences
- 25:36Speaker 3: of her own actions.
- 25:38Speaker 4: You because you evil, You don't take videos, take all
- 25:49Speaker 4: you need. You're evil people that they're not question, Yes,
- 25:53Speaker 4: they're the evil ones. Lady.
- 25:55Speaker 3: Now to our favorite little climate change crazy doom goblin
- 25:59Speaker 3: turned anti Israel zealet, Greta Thunberg.
- 26:02Speaker 12: Hello, this is going to be a long video, but
- 26:05Speaker 12: I have a lot to say, so there with me.
- 26:09Speaker 3: No, no, no, nobody's got time for a long rant
- 26:12Speaker 3: from Greta.
- 26:13Speaker 4: I'd rather hear what President Trump has to say about
- 26:16Speaker 4: Sweden's worst export.
- 26:18Speaker 13: She's just a trouble maker, you know, I mean, you
- 26:21Speaker 13: mean she's no longer into the environment.
- 26:22Speaker 12: Now she's a trouble maker.
- 26:25Speaker 4: She is an anger management problem. I think she should
- 26:27Speaker 4: see a doctor.
- 26:28Speaker 12: She needs angry if you ever watch her, she's.
- 26:31Speaker 4: A young person.
- 26:32Speaker 12: She's so angry, she's so crazy.
- 26:35Speaker 4: No, you can have her. I couldn't have sent it
- 26:38Speaker 4: better myself.
- 26:39Speaker 3: And Donald Trump should know he is responsible for Greta's
- 26:42Speaker 3: finest moment. Remember when he ignored her at the un
- 26:47Speaker 3: during his first term. Look at that face. That was
- 26:51Speaker 3: the day she gave that derange how dare you speech?
- 26:54Speaker 3: Good times. Now, let's get a good old.
- 26:57Speaker 4: Fashioned dose of crazy from the Lady of the view.
- 27:00Speaker 3: Here is Joy Beha claiming Christinome, the Secretary of Homeland Security,
- 27:06Speaker 3: is targeting Bad Bunny because his Latino and then Whoopy
- 27:11Speaker 3: Goldberg helpfully recommends that.
- 27:13Speaker 4: Folks turn up to the super.
- 27:15Speaker 3: Bowl in brown face to confuse Ice agents.
- 27:20Speaker 14: Anyway, She's threatening to go to the super Bowl when
- 27:24Speaker 14: when Bad Bunny is there and round up all these
- 27:27Speaker 14: people that are illegal immigrants.
- 27:29Speaker 4: Do you think that.
- 27:30Speaker 14: She would go if it was god Brooks or Eminem
- 27:34Speaker 14: or Taylor Sweat for any other white leers. Understand what
- 27:37Speaker 14: you're saying, Because she's going to go to the super
- 27:40Speaker 14: Bowl and round up how she got to know who's who?
- 27:43Speaker 11: Everybody, get a little Cobba butter set in the Sun.
- 27:49Speaker 2: That's the first thing. And then and this is the only.
- 27:52Speaker 15: Time you can probably ever do this, give yourself a
- 27:56Speaker 15: Latin accident.
- 27:58Speaker 4: You know?
- 27:58Speaker 8: Whoop?
- 27:58Speaker 14: That such a good yeah, I'm seeing if she can
- 28:03Speaker 14: tell who true.
- 28:05Speaker 4: Even the dim witted view audience did not want to
- 28:08Speaker 4: clap that lunacy. As for the claim.
- 28:11Speaker 3: From Joy that Christinoam wouldn't be doing this if Garth Brooks,
- 28:15Speaker 3: Taylor Swift or Eminem were performing, well, think again, lady.
- 28:19Speaker 3: All three are as left as bad bunny and judged accordingly.
- 28:23Speaker 4: It's the view that.
- 28:24Speaker 3: Seems to be obsessed by skin color, and these ladies
- 28:28Speaker 3: have become so desperate, so extreme, that they openly discuss
- 28:32Speaker 3: their wacko theories, including one where they say Trump's law
- 28:37Speaker 3: and order policies are really about a plot to end
- 28:41Speaker 3: elections or distract from Democrat Megadona Jeffrey Epstein.
- 28:46Speaker 14: This is a pretext to stop the next election. That's
- 28:50Speaker 14: what I think it.
- 28:51Speaker 7: I would say it might also be a distraction from
- 28:53Speaker 7: the hearing that's going on right now about the Epstein file.
- 28:55Speaker 4: Right some things have come up and a G.
- 28:58Speaker 6: Pam Bindi was judging questions and attacking back.
- 29:04Speaker 3: Whackerdoodles, all of them now to a woman whose politics
- 29:08Speaker 3: make her a perfect candidate for the view. Indeed, she's
- 29:11Speaker 3: so hard left she makes whoopee and joy look sane.
- 29:15Speaker 3: Here is MSNBC anchor Nicole Wallace, and let's be serious
- 29:19Speaker 3: here for a second. What you're about to see is
- 29:22Speaker 3: utterly appalling. This is misinformation and incitement dressed up as
- 29:27Speaker 3: news reporting what.
- 29:28Speaker 6: We're learning about the fire that destroyed the home of
- 29:31Speaker 6: a South Carolina Circuit Court judge who faced criticism from
- 29:34Speaker 6: Trump officials after ruling she meet against the Trump administration.
- 29:38Speaker 6: It comes amid a surge in hostility and threats against judges,
- 29:42Speaker 6: as well as criticism directly from the Trump administration, including
- 29:46Speaker 6: for Judge Goudstein.
- 29:48Speaker 3: Just absolutely reckless fake news because the pertinent information is
- 29:54Speaker 3: that fire was not arson.
- 29:56Speaker 4: But why let that get in the way of a narrative.
- 29:59Speaker 3: Let's bring in Mary mccaud to add to the hysteria.
- 30:03Speaker 4: She's pointing the finger at Donald Trump.
- 30:05Speaker 3: An alleging an act of possible to mixed domestic terrorism.
- 30:09Speaker 13: We've talked today already about crossing rubicons, right, and when
- 30:12Speaker 13: you're starting to attack judges because of their rulings. We're
- 30:16Speaker 13: in a very very dangerous position in this country, and
- 30:20Speaker 13: is it makes judges fearful, It makes prosecutors fearful, as
- 30:24Speaker 13: we know, it makes others in positions where they could
- 30:27Speaker 13: be criticized by Donald Trump fearful. And he needs to
- 30:30Speaker 13: know the power of his voice and how people respond
- 30:34Speaker 13: to that. We've been saying this for years, Nicole, But like,
- 30:37Speaker 13: if this is what this turns out to be, some
- 30:39Speaker 13: sort of politically motivated act of domestic terrorism, then the
- 30:45Speaker 13: importance and significance of the things that Donald Trump says
- 30:49Speaker 13: about a person, just again will be demonstrated in this instance.
- 30:54Speaker 3: Let's not forget it's the left that are killing and
- 30:57Speaker 3: trying to kill their political opponents, whether it's Charlie Kirk
- 31:01Speaker 3: or Donald Trump, or Supreme Court Justice Fret Kavanagh or
- 31:04Speaker 3: Republican Stephen Calice. Even in the cases where a Democrat
- 31:08Speaker 3: is attacked, it often turns out to be someone from
- 31:11Speaker 3: the left, like when Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro's house was
- 31:16Speaker 3: set alight by a pro Palestinian activist.
- 31:19Speaker 4: Now, it's been a.
- 31:20Speaker 3: While since we've featured the asenine content of alleged comic
- 31:24Speaker 3: John Oliver here he is encouraging people to harass ICE agents.
- 31:29Speaker 2: Absolutely love for that.
- 31:30Speaker 1: Woman said, I came to bother Ice because that seems
- 31:34Speaker 1: reasonable to me. If Ice can show up and bother
- 31:37Speaker 1: some guys at their roofing job, then bystanders should be
- 31:40Speaker 1: able to bother Ice at their state sanctioned kidnapping job.
- 31:44Speaker 3: It is only felt joining me now is filmmaker and
- 31:47Speaker 3: commentator Army Horowitz. Army ICE agents are having their lives threaten,
- 31:52Speaker 3: they are having to cover their faces to protect themselves
- 31:56Speaker 3: and their families. And we've got a comic, alleged comic
- 31:59Speaker 3: incur reaching lifters to confront and harass these agents doing
- 32:03Speaker 3: their job.
- 32:06Speaker 15: Yeah, Reid, the consent structure allowed by the mainstream media
- 32:10Speaker 15: is incredible and it's allowing for these attacks to happen.
- 32:13Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
- 32:14Speaker 15: There is a causal relationship between what is happening here.
- 32:18Speaker 15: When people look at celebrities, at the media, at people
- 32:22Speaker 15: they think are within the Overton window, and they hear
- 32:26Speaker 15: them speak like this, of course they're going to act
- 32:28Speaker 15: in that way. And in reality, what's happening with the
- 32:31Speaker 15: media is that they're actually shifting the open to window.
- 32:34Speaker 15: They're actually expanding it to allow for physical violence for politics.
- 32:39Speaker 2: That's exactly what we're seeing here.
- 32:42Speaker 15: Look, this is also with judges Kavanaugh. The person who
- 32:46Speaker 15: tried to kill Kavanaugh, right, the Supreme Court justice of
- 32:51Speaker 15: the United States, got sent to eight years in prison.
- 32:54Speaker 15: There's a couple of things that you get eight years
- 32:56Speaker 15: in prison for male fraud and securities fraud. It stays
- 33:00Speaker 15: typically gainst eight years in prison, not try to kill
- 33:04Speaker 15: a Supreme Court justice. And these ice attacks are happening
- 33:09Speaker 15: all across the country. Read that if you again indulge
- 33:12Speaker 15: me for another chapter of the World of cod a
- 33:16Speaker 15: chat GPT right. Sorry, I'm just I'm workshopping that name.
- 33:20Speaker 15: I'll come with a better one next week. But yes,
- 33:22Speaker 15: when I did my research, I asked chat GPT, I go,
- 33:25Speaker 15: how many attacks on ice agents have we seen in
- 33:28Speaker 15: twenty twenty five? That was what I asked it. And
- 33:31Speaker 15: then it said it listed three and I said, ah,
- 33:34Speaker 15: that does not sound right.
- 33:36Speaker 2: Three.
- 33:36Speaker 15: I said, well, I witnessed one personally in Los Angeles.
- 33:39Speaker 15: I said, Amy, why did you not mention attacks on
- 33:42Speaker 15: ice agents in Los Angeles? Chat GPT, You're right to
- 33:46Speaker 15: point that out. There actually was an attack lot Angelist
- 33:50Speaker 15: that I missed on my earlier list.
- 33:52Speaker 2: Are you kidding me?
- 33:53Speaker 15: And by the way, it wasn't four attacks. I looked
- 33:56Speaker 15: it up myself. There had been a seven hundred percent
- 34:00Speaker 15: increase on ICE attacks. From twenty twenty four to twenty
- 34:03Speaker 15: twenty five. There have been seventy nine attacks on ICE agents.
- 34:08Speaker 15: This is allowed in the left wing democratic consent structure.
- 34:13Speaker 15: This is what we're seeing here, okay, And this is
- 34:15Speaker 15: not new. We saw this in BLM when I was
- 34:17Speaker 15: a kid. The notion, the idea that you would put
- 34:21Speaker 15: forgetting when I was a kid five years ago, that
- 34:24Speaker 15: you would put a hand on a police officer, never
- 34:27Speaker 15: mind a federal official, was pure insanity. But then when
- 34:31Speaker 15: we allowed BLM riots to go on, and we allowed
- 34:34Speaker 15: them to light cop cars on fire.
- 34:38Speaker 2: This is the end result. This is what we're seeing now.
- 34:41Speaker 3: Naw me, This next bit of news will need to
- 34:44Speaker 3: come with a trigger warning for the left. But despite
- 34:46Speaker 3: the relentless bad media, Donald Trump has the steadiest approval
- 34:51Speaker 3: writing of any president on record, and would be re
- 34:54Speaker 3: elected today if an election were held.
- 34:58Speaker 4: Take it away, CNN.
- 34:59Speaker 2: Here's the thing to keep in mind.
- 35:01Speaker 16: This was good enough to get Trump reelected back in
- 35:03Speaker 16: twenty twenty four, and Donald Trump is basically at the
- 35:06Speaker 16: same point here right now, which I think would surprise
- 35:09Speaker 16: a lot of folks, especially a lot of folks on
- 35:10Speaker 16: the left, to very much disagree with a lot of
- 35:13Speaker 16: what Donald Trump has done. Is Trump doing what he
- 35:15Speaker 16: promised in the twenty twenty four campaign, Yes, fifty two percent,
- 35:18Speaker 16: the majority of Americans say that Donald Trump is doing
- 35:21Speaker 16: what he promised, compared to forty eight percent who said no.
- 35:24Speaker 16: So what essentially is going on here is the voters
- 35:26Speaker 16: expected all.
- 35:27Speaker 4: Of this from Donald Trump.
- 35:28Speaker 16: The majority did, and that is why his favorite ratings
- 35:31Speaker 16: simply has not really moved all that much compared to
- 35:34Speaker 16: where it was a year ago. Trump is basically doing
- 35:39Speaker 16: what the American people thought that he was going to do.
- 35:42Speaker 2: Indeed, if you look at the numbers, Trump.
- 35:44Speaker 16: Has basically the steadiest favorable rating this much through a
- 35:47Speaker 16: presidency of any president on record, and it's basically where
- 35:51Speaker 16: he was a year ago, good enough to get him reelected.
- 35:54Speaker 3: Ah me, that's all very interesting, But what do you
- 35:56Speaker 3: think is going to happen in the midterms?
- 35:59Speaker 15: Look traditional in midterms, the party in power loses seats
- 36:04Speaker 15: and the Democrats do whatever they can to make sure
- 36:07Speaker 15: that doesn't happen this time. The president won the election, right,
- 36:13Speaker 15: He won the election because of the two main issues,
- 36:16Speaker 15: the economy and illegal immigration.
- 36:18Speaker 2: Right, and what has he done well?
- 36:21Speaker 15: Illegal immigration is down, the illegal border crossings is down
- 36:25Speaker 15: over ninety percent this year, nine percent, nine zero percent.
- 36:33Speaker 2: That is an unbelievably incredibly high number.
- 36:36Speaker 15: Okay, And an inflation we're down this year forty two
- 36:42Speaker 15: percent from the three year average where inflation was three
- 36:46Speaker 15: years prior. Okay, that's why if the election was held today,
- 36:51Speaker 15: the president would win again. But it's not just the
- 36:53Speaker 15: President acting in.
- 36:54Speaker 2: A positive way. A lot of.
- 36:57Speaker 15: It is the Democrats acting in a negation and losing support,
- 37:01Speaker 15: which is the other side of the ledger. Look when
- 37:05Speaker 15: they continue to take the wrong side of eighty twenty issues. Right,
- 37:09Speaker 15: we talked about it before, We'll continue talking about.
- 37:11Speaker 2: It going forward.
- 37:12Speaker 15: When they are shutting down the government in now small
- 37:16Speaker 15: part because they want illegal aliens to get government funded healthcare,
- 37:22Speaker 15: that's a problem for your party.
- 37:23Speaker 2: When you're a party calling for cashless.
- 37:26Speaker 15: Bail allowing people who committed crimes back into the cities
- 37:30Speaker 15: to commit more crimes, that is a problem for your party.
- 37:35Speaker 15: So yeah, that's why you're seeing those numbers here. And
- 37:37Speaker 15: I'm not sure that the mid term election history will
- 37:40Speaker 15: repeat itself.
- 37:43Speaker 13: NA.
- 37:43Speaker 3: I mean President Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Connie
- 37:47Speaker 3: have met to negotiate a trade deal, and the President
- 37:50Speaker 3: had the room in stitches with this line.
- 37:54Speaker 15: He's a good man, he does a great job, but
- 37:55Speaker 15: he's a tough negotiator.
- 37:57Speaker 2: So then we'll plus holding things up.
- 38:04Speaker 17: If he's a great man and you want to do
- 38:05Speaker 17: a deal with Canada, why aren't you?
- 38:07Speaker 2: Because I want to be a great man too. Thank you,
- 38:14Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 38:19Speaker 4: I think you got that one.
- 38:22Speaker 17: Thank you.
- 38:25Speaker 3: And it was a loving with the Canadian Prime minister
- 38:28Speaker 3: calling Donald Trump a transformative president.
- 38:32Speaker 18: You kindly hosted me and some of my colleagues a
- 38:35Speaker 18: few months ago, and I said at the time, you
- 38:38Speaker 18: are a transformative president. And since then, Uh, the transformation
- 38:43Speaker 18: in the economy, unprecedented commitments of NATO partners to defense spending,
- 38:48Speaker 18: peace from India Pakistan through to Azerbaijan, Armenia, UH, disabling
- 38:52Speaker 18: I Ran is a force of terror.
- 38:54Speaker 1: UH.
- 38:55Speaker 18: And now and I'm running out of time, but this
- 38:56Speaker 18: is many respects. The most important uh Mergred of Canada.
- 39:02Speaker 18: I knew.
- 39:04Speaker 4: That wasn't where I was going.
- 39:05Speaker 18: I would know. But you know, on this, on this
- 39:09Speaker 18: solemn day of commemoration of the Octo October se horific
- 39:12Speaker 18: attacks of October seven, uh, for the first time in decades,
- 39:17Speaker 18: hundreds of years, thousands of years, this prospect of peace
- 39:20Speaker 18: that you've made possible. Canada stands four square behind those efforts,
- 39:24Speaker 18: and we'll do whatever we can to support n Yeah,
- 39:27Speaker 18: thank you.
- 39:27Speaker 4: Very much, Ahmi.
- 39:29Speaker 3: This was Mat Khannie's second visit to the Oval Office
- 39:32Speaker 3: ahead of next year's review of the United States Mexico
- 39:36Speaker 3: Canada Agreement.
- 39:37Speaker 4: The relations seemed to be very positive there.
- 39:42Speaker 15: Yeah, look what can I tell you? Can I you
- 39:45Speaker 15: a prime minister, welcome to the one eighty club, as
- 39:48Speaker 15: I call it, joining.
- 39:50Speaker 2: Merch from Germany. He a starmer of England.
- 39:53Speaker 15: Even crazy Lulu da Silva said he had a great
- 39:57Speaker 15: positive call with President Trump.
- 40:00Speaker 2: I think look he.
- 40:01Speaker 15: Did, Mark Quiy did a great job listing all or
- 40:05Speaker 15: just a number of his foreign policy accomplishments. Maybe he,
- 40:09Speaker 15: like others, maybe they smell a nobel peace price coming.
- 40:13Speaker 15: I want to get on that train as fast as possible.
- 40:15Speaker 15: These otienly are politicians, right, and when they see, particularly
- 40:20Speaker 15: when it comes to foreign policy arena, but also the
- 40:22Speaker 15: economic arena.
- 40:23Speaker 2: When they see the.
- 40:24Speaker 15: Success after success after success of the United States and
- 40:28Speaker 15: the foreign policy world and the leadership of Donald Trump.
- 40:31Speaker 2: I think they want to get aboard that. I think
- 40:32Speaker 2: they want to be part of that.
- 40:34Speaker 15: So yeah, I think I chalked that up to he
- 40:36Speaker 15: just following the line of success, and I think that's
- 40:39Speaker 15: where it leads us.
- 40:43Speaker 4: Na Ami.
- 40:44Speaker 3: This week we observe the second anniversary of the October
- 40:47Speaker 3: seven terrorist attacks. Sadly it coincided with more acts of
- 40:52Speaker 3: anti Semitism, including right here in Melbourne.
- 40:56Speaker 4: You travel extensively.
- 40:58Speaker 3: How fearful is the Jewish community in the West right now?
- 41:05Speaker 2: Fearful?
- 41:07Speaker 15: Look, the reality is is that there have been fear
- 41:11Speaker 15: in the Jewish community, attacks in the Jewish community, says
- 41:13Speaker 15: Jews first.
- 41:14Speaker 2: Walked this earth, right, That's the reality of the situation.
- 41:17Speaker 15: And obviously we are now in a particularly acute situation
- 41:22Speaker 15: across the globe, not just with our co religionists in Israel.
- 41:27Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 41:27Speaker 15: Look, we just had a series of holidays for Jews
- 41:32Speaker 15: around the world, right Russia, Chhana, you know, Kipper, we
- 41:34Speaker 15: call the High Holidays and It's very striking that.
- 41:38Speaker 2: And this is not new. It's been like this for many.
- 41:41Speaker 15: Years, that in order to go pray to God you
- 41:44Speaker 15: have to walk through levels of security at every single
- 41:49Speaker 15: synagogue that exists in the world. And I'm not talking
- 41:53Speaker 15: about just in Israel or even in Europe, but here
- 41:55Speaker 15: in the United States. Look for years, I did volunteer
- 41:58Speaker 15: security for my synagogue because it was necessary. It's part
- 42:02Speaker 15: of the line item expense. Synagogues have it's security. It's shameful.
- 42:07Speaker 15: It's sad that we have to live with this.
- 42:09Speaker 3: It is shameful on me and it's and it's evidence
- 42:13Speaker 3: right here in Australia. In a country like Australia, they're
- 42:16Speaker 3: so peaceful and prosperous and harmonious. You look at the
- 42:20Speaker 3: Jewish schools, the synagogues, the security they have is akin
- 42:24Speaker 3: to what you see at the airport.
- 42:26Speaker 4: Me Horowitz, thank you so much for your time tonight.
- 42:30Speaker 2: How was a pleasure?
- 42:31Speaker 3: Still to come, I'll speak to the man behind a
- 42:33Speaker 3: new groundbreaking documentary.
- 42:35Speaker 4: Caine goul Yelm joins me on the desk. Welcome back.
- 42:51Speaker 3: My next guest is the director of a new documentary
- 42:54Speaker 3: making its world premiere at the Byron Bay Film Festival
- 42:57Speaker 3: next week.
- 42:58Speaker 4: The documentary is called Wealth. Here's a snake peg.
- 43:03Speaker 17: My name is Kine gill yell me. I live in
- 43:06Speaker 17: a rural part of Australia on a small farm and
- 43:10Speaker 17: being the annoying overthinker that I am, I've been asking
- 43:12Speaker 17: myself why why aren't we happy? I look around and well,
- 43:17Speaker 17: can't help but think that society as a whole isn't
- 43:20Speaker 17: so I called some mates and grabbed a camera and
- 43:23Speaker 17: we hit the road.
- 43:32Speaker 12: What unaffordable housing is doing to kids is awful. It's
- 43:35Speaker 12: making them feel inadequate because they can't buy a house,
- 43:39Speaker 12: and it's left them feeling mentally deranged because they feel
- 43:43Speaker 12: that they've done something wrong.
- 43:44Speaker 3: They haven't joining me now is director Caine gool yell me.
- 43:49Speaker 4: Cain.
- 43:49Speaker 3: Your documentary has received some high praise, including from President
- 43:53Speaker 3: Obama's production company, and is being considered for an actor.
- 43:58Speaker 4: What inspired you to make Commonwealth?
- 44:01Speaker 17: Well, Reta, I think it started really from a place
- 44:04Speaker 17: of frustration off the back of COVID. I guess I
- 44:10Speaker 17: came away thinking with a bit of a newfound perspective
- 44:14Speaker 17: on how the world functions, and it upset me quite frankly,
- 44:18Speaker 17: and it made me very concerned for the future of
- 44:20Speaker 17: my family, for my kids and fathers. But I felt
- 44:24Speaker 17: completely powerless on what to do. On one guy, I
- 44:27Speaker 17: grew up in Western Sydney, and what could I possibly do?
- 44:31Speaker 17: And well, I thought, well, I'm a writer, I'm a director.
- 44:34Speaker 17: I've only done network TV and movies. Maybe I could
- 44:38Speaker 17: do a documentary to explore what plausible alternatives exist to
- 44:42Speaker 17: the system in which we live in.
- 44:44Speaker 3: Well, let's talk about those plausible alternatives. You travel to
- 44:48Speaker 3: eight different countries and looked at alternative economic and political models.
- 44:54Speaker 4: What did you find?
- 44:57Speaker 17: I found? Honestly, I found a bit of hope because
- 44:59Speaker 17: coming ou out of COVID, I guess I had a
- 45:03Speaker 17: little bit of a bleak outlook for the future.
- 45:06Speaker 3: Yeah, particularly being in Australia, we were particularly COVID crazy.
- 45:11Speaker 17: One Yea and my family we experienced it both in Italy.
- 45:14Speaker 17: We were living in Italy during twenty twenty and then
- 45:16Speaker 17: we came back thinking we were going to come back
- 45:18Speaker 17: to some kind of normality here and we went through
- 45:20Speaker 17: it all again. And so I guess going on this journey,
- 45:24Speaker 17: meeting and interviewing, you know, so many different people of
- 45:27Speaker 17: different lines of thinking, different backgrounds, religions and ideologies. I
- 45:33Speaker 17: guess one of the things that dawned on me is
- 45:36Speaker 17: that we do as humans have a lot in common,
- 45:39Speaker 17: and I think that sometimes media have been played a
- 45:45Speaker 17: role in creating a little bit more division and amplifying
- 45:48Speaker 17: things that. You know, if you actually sit down and
- 45:50Speaker 17: have a heart to heart conversation with someone more often
- 45:53Speaker 17: than not, I believe that you find some common humanity
- 45:57Speaker 17: amongst each other. And that was a huge takeaway from me.
- 46:00Speaker 17: In terms of the specific solutions and alternatives, I think
- 46:03Speaker 17: I'm going to let people see the film because otherwise
- 46:06Speaker 17: you've got no reason to see it exactly.
- 46:10Speaker 4: You don't give it away.
- 46:12Speaker 3: Normally with documentaries, you don't have that issue, there's no twist.
- 46:16Speaker 3: But you've certainly invested a great deal of time and
- 46:21Speaker 3: money in this. In the clip we showed, we're talking
- 46:25Speaker 3: about the struggles young people face trying to buy property,
- 46:29Speaker 3: and it's really a big issue in this country. As
- 46:33Speaker 3: we know, housing affordability is a huge problem. What do
- 46:38Speaker 3: you think are the long term impacts of that on
- 46:41Speaker 3: If you've got a generation who really don't have hopes
- 46:44Speaker 3: of owning a property.
- 46:46Speaker 17: Well, if nothing changes, the level of despair will only increase.
- 46:51Speaker 17: And that's a sad reality. Something has to change and
- 46:56Speaker 17: that's some of the things that we explore in the
- 46:58Speaker 17: film I find it. You know, just recently, just in
- 47:03Speaker 17: the past week, our Prime Minister put a clip on
- 47:05Speaker 17: social media, a ten second clip, try to sell five
- 47:09Speaker 17: percent mortgages to young people seeing Yeah, five percent deposits
- 47:14Speaker 17: for first home buyers. That's all you need to know.
- 47:18Speaker 17: That's a quote. All you need to know. You know,
- 47:21Speaker 17: it's like the guy is selling him. He thinks that
- 47:23Speaker 17: he's selling us beach arges for JB High a ten
- 47:26Speaker 17: second clip, you know, but he's selling, you know, a
- 47:29Speaker 17: lifetime of slavery to the becks. And that's not okay,
- 47:35Speaker 17: yeah it is.
- 47:35Speaker 4: It is.
- 47:36Speaker 3: It's sort of like a secondhand car salesman technique.
- 47:39Speaker 4: Isn't it. That's all you need to know? Sign up
- 47:41Speaker 4: five percent?
- 47:42Speaker 17: And as Tucker Carlson famously posts the question, I think
- 47:46Speaker 17: it was last year on his visit, how much do
- 47:48Speaker 17: you think that it might cost to buy a guy
- 47:49Speaker 17: like Albanisi? He said, And Tucker said, I think it
- 47:52Speaker 17: could be as little as the cost of a new Tesla.
- 47:55Speaker 4: I actually disagree with Tucker.
- 47:56Speaker 17: Because I think that you could buy him for the
- 47:59Speaker 17: cost of a used Tesla.
- 48:02Speaker 4: And you can get those cheap.
- 48:04Speaker 3: Now, you voluntarily exited talks with Netflix to have your
- 48:10Speaker 3: documentary featured there. That's quite a big decision to make.
- 48:15Speaker 3: He said it was a matter of principle because of
- 48:18Speaker 3: some of the content they've been pushing lately.
- 48:20Speaker 4: Just quickly tell me about that decision.
- 48:23Speaker 17: I mean, we've been in discussions with quite a few distributors,
- 48:26Speaker 17: Netflix being one of them. And yes, it has become
- 48:31Speaker 17: more obvious in recent weeks to me, I didn't realize
- 48:34Speaker 17: just to the extent of the sexualized and politicized content
- 48:38Speaker 17: that is on there, They're not the only ones that
- 48:40Speaker 17: are guilty of it. And yes, there had been some
- 48:43Speaker 17: conversations with quite high level executive in the US, and
- 48:50Speaker 17: I guess read it. Honestly, It's come a time in
- 48:54Speaker 17: my career where I feel like I have to put
- 48:56Speaker 17: my values and beliefs before my career, and I've been
- 48:58Speaker 17: guilty of doing the opposite for two and I draw
- 49:03Speaker 17: a line when you start engaging children in adult conversations,
- 49:07Speaker 17: and that's where it ends for me. So in terms
- 49:10Speaker 17: of a release, now I don't know what the plan is,
- 49:13Speaker 17: because I wouldn't be surprised if people try to distance
- 49:15Speaker 17: themselves for me for taking that position.
- 49:18Speaker 4: No, that's a brave stance to take. Kine Google yell
- 49:21Speaker 4: me thank you so much for your time tonight.
- 49:23Speaker 3: Thanks you, and that's it from me. Up next, it's Newsnight.
- 49:26Speaker 3: I'll see you tomorrow at eleven
