- 0:33Speaker 4: So you're saying you're not going to be watching the
- 0:35Speaker 4: late debate next week?
- 0:36Speaker 3: Oh look, I may do, but I may be a
- 0:38Speaker 3: few subets in, but you might get interesting.
- 0:44Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, exactly. Well, well we'll miss you next week.
- 0:48Speaker 4: But Warnerball will be very excited to have their favorite
- 0:51Speaker 4: son back.
- 0:53Speaker 2: Won't they joint when comes with his with his.
- 0:58Speaker 3: Whole album We Stay in Port Fear you know, the
- 1:01Speaker 3: slightly nice a risk.
- 1:02Speaker 4: Of course, of course he does.
- 1:03Speaker 2: He call his keys import Ferry after it doesn't need
- 1:06Speaker 2: typical Caleb Orr.
- 1:06Speaker 4: I'm coming up tonight in.
- 1:08Speaker 2: Sickness and in help why married people are less likely
- 1:12Speaker 2: to develop cancer? The Green Dream claims another victim, the
- 1:16Speaker 2: UK government is looking to ban traditional tumble dryers as
- 1:20Speaker 2: part of its net zero zelotry. And a landlord takes
- 1:24Speaker 2: sixty dollars out of a tenant's bond.
- 1:27Speaker 4: Why for cobwebs would you believe? Unbelievable?
- 1:31Speaker 2: But first tonight, this is where the justice system fails
- 1:34Speaker 2: time and time again. Two women accused of vandalizing a
- 1:37Speaker 2: Melbourne RSL on Anzac Day have been hit with further
- 1:41Speaker 2: charges after police allege they also targeted eight second RSL.
- 1:46Speaker 2: Now the pair are accused of spray painting the Heidelberg
- 1:49Speaker 2: and Reservoir RSLs with the messages death to the adf F,
- 1:55Speaker 2: the ANZACs, kill the troops, Gallipoli, do it again and
- 2:01Speaker 2: death to Australia. Now, despite the fresh charges, the women,
- 2:05Speaker 2: age twenty and twenty two, have been bailed.
- 2:09Speaker 4: Now I would ask the question why why have they
- 2:11Speaker 4: been bailed?
- 2:13Speaker 2: Three AW was reporting this afternoon that the women are
- 2:15Speaker 2: members of a pro Palestine protest group. That tells you
- 2:19Speaker 2: everything you need to know. But the question is do
- 2:21Speaker 2: we want people who disrespect our values, disrespect our way
- 2:25Speaker 2: of life, disrespect public property like this, and of course
- 2:29Speaker 2: disrespect our ANZACs to learn a lesson or not, because
- 2:32Speaker 2: this was clearly deliberate on a day where veterans and
- 2:36Speaker 2: their family gather.
- 2:38Speaker 4: Now I'm actually really I.
- 2:40Speaker 2: Find this very very offensive to be honest as an
- 2:43Speaker 2: Australian when you're calling death to Australians, death to the
- 2:48Speaker 2: adf as in our forces, the people who do the
- 2:51Speaker 2: very job in keeping this very great country of ours safe.
- 2:56Speaker 2: And it goes back to the justice system again not
- 3:00Speaker 2: proving any having any accountability for this mess. Also note
- 3:04Speaker 2: that talkback callers were ringing in three aw this afternoon saying, well,
- 3:07Speaker 2: we need to be able to name and shame them
- 3:10Speaker 2: and that might stop them from doing this again. Okay,
- 3:12Speaker 2: I would agree with that. I think we have to
- 3:14Speaker 2: name and shame these perpetrators, but I don't think that
- 3:17Speaker 2: that's going to stop them. I think it comes down
- 3:19Speaker 2: to the legal system saying no, you've done this. I'm
- 3:22Speaker 2: glad that there have been charges laid, but they can't
- 3:25Speaker 2: be bailed.
- 3:26Speaker 4: And you know Jess Wilson a couple of.
- 3:28Speaker 2: Weeks ago, Caleb, you might remember she said ten years
- 3:31Speaker 2: in jail for anyone found to be defacing monuments or
- 3:35Speaker 2: any of these memorials like this, or pay up. And
- 3:38Speaker 2: I think that that is absolutely fair enough because there
- 3:40Speaker 2: have been dozens upon dozens of defacing over the last
- 3:44Speaker 2: couple of years, since twenty twenty, and not one charge
- 3:46Speaker 2: has been laid, not one charge.
- 3:48Speaker 4: When are we going to put some accountability in place.
- 3:51Speaker 3: Well, they'll be named and shamed when the court process
- 3:53Speaker 3: goes goes through as it should, and it will make
- 3:57Speaker 3: a decision on whether or not these two women are
- 3:59Speaker 3: guilty or not. But it should be in a completely
- 4:03Speaker 3: different category to any other kind of vandalism. Right So
- 4:07Speaker 3: at the moment, I'm sure the reason you get bail
- 4:10Speaker 3: is because they go, well, it's a nonviolent crime. It's
- 4:13Speaker 3: on the lower end of the criminal scale. We don't
- 4:16Speaker 3: think you're a risk of doing anything harmful to another person,
- 4:20Speaker 3: So we're not going to use up a jail cell
- 4:23Speaker 3: and put you on remand we'll let you go back
- 4:25Speaker 3: into the community. But as far as I'm concerned, or
- 4:28Speaker 3: by the way I should mention for the good people
- 4:30Speaker 3: of Reservoir, it's reservoir to the locals, they'll get upset
- 4:36Speaker 3: about that, But to going back to my point, it
- 4:38Speaker 3: should be a completely different offense, and it should be
- 4:42Speaker 3: treated with great seriousness, because if you are willing to
- 4:47Speaker 3: deface an RSL or an ANZAC monument or any other
- 4:51Speaker 3: kind of war monument, if you're willing to put up
- 4:54Speaker 3: graffiti that sees death to the ad F and you know,
- 4:57Speaker 3: kill the troops f the ANZACs, all this sort of business,
- 5:01Speaker 3: and that, as far as I'm concerned, is tantamount to treason.
- 5:05Speaker 3: I mean, what you are doing is fighting against your
- 5:09Speaker 3: own country. You're calling for the downfall of the people
- 5:13Speaker 3: who protect your country and the protection of your own country.
- 5:17Speaker 3: And if that's what you believe, and you are willing
- 5:20Speaker 3: to deface sacred places on one of our most sacred
- 5:24Speaker 3: days in this country, I mean, you know, I know
- 5:28Speaker 3: we legally can't do it, unfortunately, but you know we
- 5:30Speaker 3: should have some sort of recourse to take your citizenship
- 5:33Speaker 3: away or something. I know we can't do that because
- 5:35Speaker 3: then you'd render a person stateless and you get into
- 5:37Speaker 3: trouble for doing that. But you know, I lock them
- 5:39Speaker 3: up forever, I don't care. And that is seditious behavior
- 5:43Speaker 3: as far as I'm concerned. And you don't belong in
- 5:46Speaker 3: Australian society. If that's what you think, and that is
- 5:49Speaker 3: how you behave you've broken the social contract. Either get
- 5:53Speaker 3: on a plane and go somewhere else, or languish in
- 5:55Speaker 3: a jail cell forever.
- 5:56Speaker 5: Or go to Palestine if it's so appropriate, exactly become
- 5:59Speaker 5: a fighter, so tough, so tough that you can, you know,
- 6:03Speaker 5: spray paint RSLs on the cover of darkness. Well, why
- 6:05Speaker 5: don't you go and show you military acumen overseas. I think,
- 6:10Speaker 5: firstly well done, because I think the biggest takeout message
- 6:13Speaker 5: is it's reservoir. And if you pronounce reservoir, reservoir and
- 6:17Speaker 5: this actually I think could be the could be the
- 6:20Speaker 5: sort of summary punishment for these people. They actually have
- 6:22Speaker 5: to go back to the reservoir. RSL call it reservoir
- 6:27Speaker 5: in front of a sort of end angry locals. I'm
- 6:30Speaker 5: imagining kitchfox and tortures and you know, and then just
- 6:34Speaker 5: see how long they last. But again, it's not even
- 6:39Speaker 5: to be honest, it's not even the sort of prison
- 6:40Speaker 5: sense or whatever at the other end of this. And
- 6:42Speaker 5: of course I have no problem with locking people up,
- 6:44Speaker 5: and I think you're right there should be a special
- 6:46Speaker 5: category like there is, for example, assault, there's a special
- 6:49Speaker 5: category of assault if you assault a frontline worker, like
- 6:51Speaker 5: a police officer. Obviously that's far more treated, far more
- 6:54Speaker 5: seriously than just assaulting a normal human being, as it
- 6:57Speaker 5: should be a civilian. But I mean, the real problem
- 7:01Speaker 5: is that these people think this sort.
- 7:03Speaker 1: Of stuff in the first place.
- 7:05Speaker 5: They are so absolutely bonkers and twisted in their thinking
- 7:12Speaker 5: that they that they sort of they don't understand the
- 7:16Speaker 5: history obviously. I mean, if you look at for example,
- 7:18Speaker 5: Anzac Day celebrating a glippery, the diggers were going there
- 7:23Speaker 5: to liberate these nations from the Ottoman Empire, and that
- 7:28Speaker 5: was because the Ottoman Empire, when faced with a choice
- 7:32Speaker 5: between entering World War One on the side of the
- 7:34Speaker 5: Allies or on the side of the crazy German Kaiser,
- 7:37Speaker 5: decided that it would pick the Kaiser and go in
- 7:40Speaker 5: to going to the war on behalf of Germans who
- 7:45Speaker 5: were committing the most horrendous atrocities already. So that, you know,
- 7:51Speaker 5: it just sort of tells you how there's no kind
- 7:52Speaker 5: of fixed point in history where I can say, all right, no,
- 7:55Speaker 5: this is Palestinian Land, and you know, anyone who takes
- 8:00Speaker 5: away from it. It's a terrible, dirty, rotten colonizer what
- 8:02Speaker 5: was Turkish Land, because when over there, it wasn't Palestine
- 8:05Speaker 5: at all, and that's how British Palestine came to be,
- 8:08Speaker 5: and that's how they got the mandate to give it
- 8:10Speaker 5: to Israel or the Jewish people in the first place.
- 8:13Speaker 5: So they're completely ignorant of history. They don't actually know
- 8:16Speaker 5: what they're talking about. And again, when you have you know,
- 8:20Speaker 5: death death to the adf, we where does that come from?
- 8:22Speaker 5: That of course comes from the chant with death to
- 8:25Speaker 5: the idef.
- 8:26Speaker 1: Which is popularized by you know, the.
- 8:28Speaker 5: Douchebag at Glastonbury who decided, we've got a brand new
- 8:32Speaker 5: We've got a brand new chant kids. And again it's
- 8:35Speaker 5: this idea and I keep talking about it, and it's
- 8:37Speaker 5: not to trivialize it. It makes it even more sinister
- 8:41Speaker 5: and kind of endemic. But the problem with you know,
- 8:45Speaker 5: all the pro Palestine stuff is not.
- 8:47Speaker 1: That it's legal, it's that it's cool.
- 8:49Speaker 5: This is just the next cause to sure, this is
- 8:51Speaker 5: the next thing that all the kids are doing. And
- 8:54Speaker 5: so they go there and they do all this dumb stuff.
- 8:57Speaker 5: They say all these dumb things without knowing what it
- 9:00Speaker 5: actually means without having any idea of the history behind
- 9:02Speaker 5: it or the repercussions of what they're actually doing it.
- 9:05Speaker 5: And so you've got all these useful, useful idiots who
- 9:08Speaker 5: are basically vandalizing history, vandalizing their nationhood, vandalizing their their
- 9:15Speaker 5: national sort of soul, and also inciting violence and possibly
- 9:20Speaker 5: even too stupid to know it. And that's what I
- 9:22Speaker 5: find so depressing, because you can lock these people up
- 9:25Speaker 5: and there'll still be a whole bunch of others.
- 9:27Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 9:27Speaker 2: No, Look, to make a really good point, I totally
- 9:29Speaker 2: agree with you, but you know, we have to start
- 9:32Speaker 2: setting some boundaries. And I think the first, you know,
- 9:36Speaker 2: we've got to stop giving these people bail.
- 9:38Speaker 4: And I understand your point, Caleb.
- 9:39Speaker 2: They think, okay, well it's a low lying offense, fine,
- 9:42Speaker 2: but it goes beyond that, because that is an attack
- 9:45Speaker 2: on our values. And I think you've just got to
- 9:47Speaker 2: start setting the standard and setting some accountability.
- 9:49Speaker 4: Otherwise these useful idiots to put.
- 9:52Speaker 2: Into your term, are going to keep doing this over
- 9:54Speaker 2: and over again. Pretty sure they don't understand, they don't know.
- 9:57Speaker 4: Well, that's it.
- 9:58Speaker 2: Go and give this a crack in Gaza. If you
- 9:59Speaker 2: want love to see you give it a go, but
- 10:02Speaker 2: this is an assault on our values. And you know
- 10:05Speaker 2: that they're young women twenty and twenty two. I would
- 10:08Speaker 2: ask them the question, do you understand what our values are?
- 10:11Speaker 2: Do you love this country? Because this to me does
- 10:14Speaker 2: not seem like they.
- 10:15Speaker 1: Do, And also ask them the question what are your pronouns?
- 10:18Speaker 4: And what are your pronouns?
- 10:19Speaker 3: And that's why I say that it needs to be
- 10:22Speaker 3: a much heavier crime. It should be a completely different category,
- 10:26Speaker 3: and it should be treated in a completely different category.
- 10:28Speaker 3: But of course, you know, this is the sort of
- 10:29Speaker 3: stuff that goes on in the People's Socialist Republic of Victoria,
- 10:34Speaker 3: speaking of which, one of the other problems they are
- 10:36Speaker 3: beset with is ramp of crime and spirit thought for
- 10:41Speaker 3: the poor business owners who are simply trying to earn
- 10:44Speaker 3: a buck in Melbourne and increasingly finding that it's difficult
- 10:48Speaker 3: to do so, certainly without being abused and threatened and whatever,
- 10:53Speaker 3: facing violence daily from drag addled people who are getting
- 10:57Speaker 3: around the Melbourne CBD. Case in point, Amre Morcos, who
- 11:02Speaker 3: set up just a few months ago in January, his
- 11:05Speaker 3: shop Pizza the Kansa on Burke Street in Melbourne, just
- 11:10Speaker 3: down the road to about one hundred and fifty odd
- 11:12Speaker 3: meters from State Parliament. But he says he can't hack
- 11:16Speaker 3: it anymore because he has to deal with these half
- 11:19Speaker 3: wits who keep going to his shop. The Herald Sun
- 11:23Speaker 3: reports it today. Mister Morcos, who only opened his Burke
- 11:26Speaker 3: Street store in January, said there was no sense to
- 11:30Speaker 3: keep going under the pressure of daily abuse and violence
- 11:33Speaker 3: from drunk and drug affected people in the CBD. He
- 11:36Speaker 3: said people would touch and steal food from the Bay Marie,
- 11:40Speaker 3: they would spit in his face, smoke and inject drugs
- 11:44Speaker 3: on his doorstep. The Herald Sun ranch that mister Morcos
- 11:47Speaker 3: recently chased a thief and suffered a broken finger as
- 11:51Speaker 3: a result. He then had a drug affected person enter
- 11:54Speaker 3: his store and throw a jar of coffee beans at
- 11:57Speaker 3: the wall for no reason. He said his dream to
- 11:59Speaker 3: own a store in Melbourne was over. Quote, it's finished.
- 12:03Speaker 3: I'll take my luggage and go back to Europe because
- 12:06Speaker 3: it doesn't make sense. I've decided to give up. I
- 12:10Speaker 3: can't keep going. I mean, that is the state of
- 12:13Speaker 3: Melbourne now where a bloke's just trying to make a
- 12:16Speaker 3: go of it, and within four months he said, I
- 12:19Speaker 3: can't do it. I keep having to deal with these drunken,
- 12:22Speaker 3: dragaddled people who come into my shop, who throw things
- 12:26Speaker 3: at me, who spit at my staff, who they get
- 12:29Speaker 3: into fights and whatever in the midst of all of this,
- 12:31Speaker 3: and they're bleeding and then they're touching the food, So
- 12:34Speaker 3: then he's going to tuck all of that food out.
- 12:37Speaker 1: You know.
- 12:37Speaker 3: He tries to chase them out of the stories, breaking
- 12:39Speaker 3: his finger, and now he's going to go back to Europe.
- 12:41Speaker 3: I mean, how sad is that you'd expect to see
- 12:45Speaker 3: this in the third world. In fact, you'd expect to
- 12:47Speaker 3: see it in some parts of Europe at the moment,
- 12:48Speaker 3: to be perfectly honest. But he'd rather go back there
- 12:51Speaker 3: than deal with this in Melbourne.
- 12:52Speaker 2: I mean, what does that say about Melbourne? And what
- 12:54Speaker 2: does it say about the state of Melbourne. Yet we
- 12:56Speaker 2: keep hearing this from justinto.
- 12:57Speaker 4: Allan Lburn's CBD is safe.
- 13:03Speaker 2: Yeah, I ask business owners like this just into Alan
- 13:06Speaker 2: whether they think that Melbourne CBD is safe. Ninety percent
- 13:11Speaker 2: of employees now in Melbourne actually fear.
- 13:14Speaker 4: For their safety.
- 13:15Speaker 2: And when you think about it, it's a culmination of
- 13:17Speaker 2: multiple things. So crime's clearly out of control. In the CBD.
- 13:21Speaker 2: You've also got weekly protests shutting down the CBD. What
- 13:25Speaker 2: hope do business owners have right now? Plus they're still
- 13:27Speaker 2: dealing with the fallout from the COVID pandemic.
- 13:31Speaker 4: You've got to feel sorry for employers.
- 13:33Speaker 2: I mean, they're trying to make a buck here and
- 13:35Speaker 2: they're being absolutely persecuted by crime on a weekly basis.
- 13:40Speaker 2: And it's not just the Alan government, because let's be honest,
- 13:42Speaker 2: they've been completely late to the party when it comes
- 13:44Speaker 2: to their adult crime adult time laws. They were dragged,
- 13:48Speaker 2: kicking and screaming into doing this, and their whole big
- 13:52Speaker 2: stick was, oh well, it's all right, we've got the
- 13:53Speaker 2: machete bins that should solve every single crime in this state.
- 13:58Speaker 2: But again, it comes down to justice system, because it's
- 14:01Speaker 2: a slap on the wrist. The cycle of crime continues
- 14:05Speaker 2: and these absolute lunatics are back out on the streets again,
- 14:08Speaker 2: so that there are a myriad of problems.
- 14:11Speaker 4: But gee, the fact that he's.
- 14:12Speaker 2: Got blood being splattened in his restaurantic, the blog that
- 14:17Speaker 2: he's trying to sell pizzas. You've got drunken buffoons at
- 14:19Speaker 2: the doorstep, drunk and drugged off their faces, it'd be
- 14:24Speaker 2: very hard to make a living right now.
- 14:25Speaker 5: Yeah, I've got to say the whole joint's gone downhill
- 14:27Speaker 5: ever since I left.
- 14:29Speaker 3: But that was had I left too.
- 14:35Speaker 5: And look, I can tell you, I mean, I grew
- 14:37Speaker 5: up in a pretty rough and roughest Caut's part of
- 14:39Speaker 5: Melbourne and did have a very high crime rate. But
- 14:43Speaker 5: the areas that are now being affected were just you know,
- 14:47Speaker 5: you could, you know, the proverbiala naked woman could walk,
- 14:50Speaker 5: you know, with a golden apple on her head, as
- 14:52Speaker 5: they used to say of the Mongolian Empire, from end
- 14:54Speaker 5: to end. And you know, a place like Tuak, a
- 14:56Speaker 5: place like you know, a place like South Yarraw all
- 14:59Speaker 5: these really ritzy, ritzy sort of inner suburbs, the leafy
- 15:04Speaker 5: sort of liberal belt. These you know, the idea that
- 15:07Speaker 5: you would have you know, Chapel Street, South Yarra as
- 15:09Speaker 5: a hotbed of crime would have been just absolutely unthinkable
- 15:13Speaker 5: just a decade or two ago.
- 15:16Speaker 1: And now you know you have this thing.
- 15:18Speaker 5: And strangely enough, even though it's meant to be a
- 15:20Speaker 5: labor government, often when you had these these crimes out
- 15:25Speaker 5: in the poor working class suburbs of the southeast or
- 15:28Speaker 5: the West, or the north.
- 15:29Speaker 1: You know that was sort of ignored.
- 15:32Speaker 5: But suddenly when it hits the ritzy suburbs and their
- 15:34Speaker 5: car jacking, you know, nice nice fancy to Iraq tractors
- 15:39Speaker 5: instead of the usual stuff in the outer suburbs, Suddenly
- 15:42Speaker 5: then there's this panic and suddenly the government's paying attention.
- 15:45Speaker 5: I mean again, there was you know, even in Northcote
- 15:48Speaker 5: and the Northland shopping Center that's been subjected to.
- 15:51Speaker 1: Crazy amounts of crime.
- 15:52Speaker 5: Now that is you know, green hippie affluent, you know,
- 15:56Speaker 5: upper middle class tertiary educator.
- 15:58Speaker 3: It was that attack at Northern Shopping Center that basically
- 16:01Speaker 3: led to the mashette bits.
- 16:02Speaker 4: Right, was this the one where they were throwing the chairs?
- 16:05Speaker 4: Which one was this one?
- 16:06Speaker 1: There was? There was?
- 16:07Speaker 5: There was, Yeah, I know, there's so many of them
- 16:10Speaker 5: attack it was a car park, I think, yeah, and
- 16:13Speaker 5: they'd run through the shopping center.
- 16:15Speaker 3: But yeah, as you said, there's been so many of them.
- 16:17Speaker 3: But I mean you mentioned as well the workers feeling unsafe.
- 16:20Speaker 3: I mean, so Cocoa Black, which is a chocolate shop, right,
- 16:24Speaker 3: and you wouldn't think of a chocolate shop as being
- 16:26Speaker 3: the sort of place that would be like really under
- 16:28Speaker 3: threat from these violent criminals. But Coco Black and opposite
- 16:33Speaker 3: the town Hall last year had to get private security
- 16:37Speaker 3: because they were dealing with violent people all the time
- 16:40Speaker 3: walking past the store and carrying on and remonstrating with
- 16:43Speaker 3: staff coming in ordering coffees, refusing to pay for them
- 16:47Speaker 3: and getting violent and all this sort of thing.
- 16:49Speaker 1: If you're on I you don't need a coffee.
- 16:50Speaker 3: No exactly a hot side. And there was a survey
- 16:54Speaker 3: done last year about the Melbourne City Council that found
- 16:58Speaker 3: I think it was about three quarters of residents don't
- 17:00Speaker 3: feel safe in the city at night, and there was
- 17:03Speaker 3: a significant number as well said they didn't feel safe
- 17:06Speaker 3: during the day. I mean, it's so sad to think
- 17:10Speaker 3: of how far Melbourne has fallen, because it is a
- 17:13Speaker 3: great city and it deserves so much better than this,
- 17:18Speaker 3: and that's why people are leaving. It's why people like
- 17:22Speaker 3: mister Morcosts are leaving because they just can't hack it
- 17:24Speaker 3: any well.
- 17:24Speaker 4: It's no longer one of the most Liverpool cities in
- 17:26Speaker 4: the world. You just you can't.
- 17:28Speaker 5: So someone will keep voting for I think Melbournis vote
- 17:31Speaker 5: for their own cities.
- 17:32Speaker 1: They look maybe, but I think you know, it is ridiculous.
- 17:36Speaker 4: We'll see what happens at the election. We'll see what
- 17:38Speaker 4: happens at the election where the people actually are genuinely
- 17:41Speaker 4: serious about about change.
- 17:43Speaker 5: Very interesting because often you get all these people who
- 17:45Speaker 5: you know, grumble and sail this stuff, but then they
- 17:47Speaker 5: just go and vote and they do it anyway.
- 17:49Speaker 4: So institutionally, absolutely, it's unions. It's always been in Union state,
- 17:53Speaker 4: and that is that is the exact problem.
- 17:56Speaker 1: Right to get in there.
- 17:58Speaker 4: Well, you've got to November.
- 18:00Speaker 2: See what happens. Let's see what happens. Now, let's talk
- 18:02Speaker 2: about the flow tiller. You know, the doomed Goblin flow tiller,
- 18:07Speaker 2: the one that Greta tried to sail into Gaza many
- 18:11Speaker 2: many times.
- 18:12Speaker 4: Look, it's had a few setbacks in recent weeks.
- 18:15Speaker 2: First, one of the senior crew members on board was
- 18:18Speaker 2: ejected because he was accused of having sex with three women.
- 18:22Speaker 4: You can't make this stuff up. The boat was rocking.
- 18:28Speaker 1: If it was just who would have been.
- 18:30Speaker 4: I don't know how the three different women are out
- 18:33Speaker 4: of here.
- 18:33Speaker 2: I wonder if the women knew that that that this
- 18:35Speaker 2: guy was apparently you know, all of them. So Secondly,
- 18:42Speaker 2: disaster number two for the flow tiller. Greta and her
- 18:45Speaker 2: boyfriend opted not to go on this year because of
- 18:48Speaker 2: the sex allegations. She's decided, So that's basically they've lost
- 18:52Speaker 2: their star recruit. She said, no, there's too much sex
- 18:55Speaker 2: on board. I'm not taking part in it.
- 19:01Speaker 3: That's it.
- 19:02Speaker 2: And now thirdly another disaster. It has already been intercepted.
- 19:08Speaker 2: Would you believe in fact four Ozzi's attempting to break
- 19:11Speaker 2: Israel's nineteen year land and sea blockade to deliver the
- 19:15Speaker 2: aid to Gaza. They've been intercepted by Israel in international waters.
- 19:20Speaker 4: They've actually been intercepted. This is some of the vision.
- 19:23Speaker 2: West of the Greek island of Crete, quite far away
- 19:27Speaker 2: from the destination. The Israel Defense forces boarded the vessel
- 19:32Speaker 2: carrying the OSSI's as well as others after a warship
- 19:36Speaker 2: launched an inflatable tactical boat for inception.
- 19:40Speaker 4: But have a listen to this.
- 19:41Speaker 2: This is twenty two year old law student Ethan Floyd.
- 19:45Speaker 2: He is having a real hard time after the interception.
- 19:48Speaker 4: Have a look.
- 19:50Speaker 6: My name is Ethan Floyd and I'm an Australian citizen.
- 19:53Speaker 6: If you're watching this, it means that the civilian aid
- 19:56Speaker 6: flotilla that I'm a part of has been illegally intercepted
- 19:59Speaker 6: in international waters by Israel. I have been kidnapped by
- 20:02Speaker 6: the Israeli defense forces and taken to Israel against my
- 20:05Speaker 6: will alongside other Australians.
- 20:09Speaker 2: Ethan. It kind of reminds me a little bit of
- 20:12Speaker 2: when Greta. I remember the last time this happened in Greta.
- 20:17Speaker 2: Literally there arose to repeat when Greta said, I have
- 20:21Speaker 2: been kidnapped against my will?
- 20:23Speaker 4: How dare you?
- 20:25Speaker 2: But look, this is just another disaster. I don't know
- 20:27Speaker 2: why they keep bothering to me. This is nothing more
- 20:30Speaker 2: than a pr stunt. They're not being serious, right if
- 20:33Speaker 2: they're all bonking on board Greta's not even on this one.
- 20:37Speaker 2: There's been drugs found, there's been condoms found. They've also
- 20:41Speaker 2: been vision's.
- 20:43Speaker 1: Vision that's been delivery.
- 20:46Speaker 2: Well, it doesn't seem appropriate to me if there. And
- 20:53Speaker 2: then the other thing is they carry on about this,
- 20:55Speaker 2: this genocide. I mean, come on, they're not faired income
- 20:58Speaker 2: in my view, Caleb, they're not feeding about this.
- 21:00Speaker 1: It's so funny.
- 21:01Speaker 4: Just give it up, give it up, give it fool.
- 21:03Speaker 3: Look clearly it's a fools here and they know that
- 21:06Speaker 3: Israel is going to do this. I mean they've intercepted them,
- 21:09Speaker 3: you know, some something like a thousand kilometers off the coast,
- 21:12Speaker 3: and you're.
- 21:13Speaker 5: On the west side of Crete. You are on the
- 21:15Speaker 5: wrong side of creek. Well you're not even on the
- 21:18Speaker 5: Israel side of creek.
- 21:19Speaker 3: But I don't know why Israel keeps intercepting them. Just
- 21:25Speaker 3: let them go, Let them get to Gaza and do
- 21:29Speaker 3: whatever the hell they want to do there. What what what?
- 21:32Speaker 3: What business is it a of Israel to stop them,
- 21:35Speaker 3: because I mean, okay, they're going to roll in there
- 21:37Speaker 3: with some condoms and some drugs or something. They're not
- 21:40Speaker 3: going to do anything of any great note. If they
- 21:43Speaker 3: come a cropper in Gaza, who really cares? That's your
- 21:46Speaker 3: own fault because you've taken yourself there. By intercepting them,
- 21:51Speaker 3: you kind of hand them the proper Ganda tool that
- 21:54Speaker 3: they want. Anyway, because then they put the videos out
- 21:57Speaker 3: and they say we've been captured, and they get to
- 21:59Speaker 3: say woe is me and whatever. I just don't see
- 22:03Speaker 3: anymore what the point is. Just let them go, Let
- 22:06Speaker 3: them go in and do whatever the hell they're going
- 22:08Speaker 3: to do there, and then get themselves out. Of there,
- 22:09Speaker 3: of their own volition. What is what is Israel gain
- 22:12Speaker 3: from doing it?
- 22:12Speaker 4: Oh? I disagree, I completely.
- 22:14Speaker 2: The problem is is that there's this land and sea blockade,
- 22:17Speaker 2: and I think that they're not doing and I get
- 22:19Speaker 2: your point, just let them go ahead and give, you know,
- 22:22Speaker 2: whatever happens to them. But they're not doing this for
- 22:24Speaker 2: genuine reasons. They are just doing this for p R
- 22:27Speaker 2: purposes and to generate the propaganda. But it's the stuff
- 22:31Speaker 2: that they're putting out Caleb is wrong. What they're saying
- 22:33Speaker 2: about Israel is totally fun.
- 22:35Speaker 4: Propaganda were totally incorrect.
- 22:37Speaker 3: So they're going to do I.
- 22:38Speaker 2: Just think, no, they deserve to be they deserve to
- 22:41Speaker 2: be intercepted. I think that they're not actually doing any good,
- 22:45Speaker 2: any good at.
- 22:45Speaker 1: All, very only good, I think.
- 22:47Speaker 5: I mean the problem is firstly, if they get to guards,
- 22:50Speaker 5: they're not going to be letting into Gaza because that
- 22:52Speaker 5: or the or the gates are shut anyway. So then
- 22:56Speaker 5: they would just become Israel's problem in Israel, and we
- 22:59Speaker 5: know that happened and with Greta when she tried it.
- 23:02Speaker 1: They basically I've been held against my will. I've been
- 23:05Speaker 1: held against my will, and they just could not get
- 23:07Speaker 1: rid of her quick enough. They're like, cook, take your
- 23:10Speaker 1: we'll pay for you. Go there, you go, we'll.
- 23:11Speaker 5: Drive into there, but just go go because obviously, if
- 23:15Speaker 5: you were stuck in a room with Greta Tilburg, it
- 23:17Speaker 5: would be the most annoying, painful experience of your entire life.
- 23:22Speaker 5: You'd just be sitting there with a sort of scoldy,
- 23:24Speaker 5: humorous Swedish girl.
- 23:26Speaker 3: I'd have been a good way to stop the sex
- 23:27Speaker 3: on the boat. She could have been like.
- 23:28Speaker 5: I think if she just you know, she would or
- 23:30Speaker 5: she would hear something and catch someone in flagrante and
- 23:33Speaker 5: just go. So I think that is the problem. They
- 23:38Speaker 5: want to turn these people around before they become what
- 23:40Speaker 5: would inevitably be Israel's.
- 23:42Speaker 3: Why don't you let them in?
- 23:44Speaker 2: Yeah, but if you wanted to deliver a humanitarian a,
- 23:46Speaker 2: why don't you do so through the proper channels instead.
- 23:48Speaker 5: Of delivering aid on a tiny little side.
- 23:53Speaker 3: This is my point. We know that they're not doing
- 23:55Speaker 3: it in good faith, we know that they're not actually
- 23:56Speaker 3: going to deliver any real aid, So let them just
- 24:00Speaker 3: to get a taste of their own mentin. And you
- 24:02Speaker 3: want to carry on about how you're taking them aid.
- 24:04Speaker 3: Just let them in there and have a look around them.
- 24:06Speaker 4: What's the worst, what's the.
- 24:09Speaker 3: Worst that can happen?
- 24:10Speaker 1: Want to get the body out of constructure.
- 24:12Speaker 5: So what you actually want to do is form a
- 24:14Speaker 5: sub branch of Quiz for Palestine in cars, like I
- 24:20Speaker 5: would like to say, get a nice little office, get
- 24:23Speaker 5: all the material heres and.
- 24:24Speaker 1: Pamphlets you can go and hand out.
- 24:26Speaker 5: You know, you can have your little bowl of condoms
- 24:28Speaker 5: and you know, I put it there and.
- 24:30Speaker 1: See how that works out for you.
- 24:31Speaker 5: You know, like put a bit of imagination and they
- 24:33Speaker 5: don't just sort of throw them over there, and like,
- 24:36Speaker 5: you know, give them.
- 24:37Speaker 1: The tools to you know, to really apply their craft.
- 24:39Speaker 3: Absolutely, while we're talking about margrants or people on boats anyway,
- 24:44Speaker 3: trying to get into places where they are not welcome.
- 24:47Speaker 3: Over in the UK, you would be aware. We've talked
- 24:49Speaker 3: about it quite a bit here. They keep having people
- 24:51Speaker 3: coming over from France, in particular, they get smuggled into
- 24:56Speaker 3: France and then they get on little boats and they
- 24:58Speaker 3: float off to the UK and the and the UK
- 25:01Speaker 3: puts them up in hotels and all sorts of things
- 25:03Speaker 3: like this, and they don't know what to do with them.
- 25:05Speaker 3: They try to send them to Rwander, and then they
- 25:07Speaker 3: couldn't do that, and on and on it goes. Well,
- 25:09Speaker 3: there's a mob called Schools of Sanctuary and this is
- 25:14Speaker 3: an outfit that gets schools and teachers to sign up
- 25:17Speaker 3: basically to tell the little kiddies that they should open
- 25:19Speaker 3: the borders and let all the illegal migrants into their country.
- 25:22Speaker 3: There are a thousand schools in the UK have signed up
- 25:26Speaker 3: to this mob. Now, this mob, Schools of Sanctuary, has
- 25:28Speaker 3: now sent out a reading list to its member schools.
- 25:33Speaker 3: So here are a bunch of books that you should
- 25:35Speaker 3: get the kiddies to read up on if they want
- 25:38Speaker 3: to know what is going on with this illegal migration.
- 25:40Speaker 3: Though I'm sure they wouldn't call it illegal migration. They
- 25:43Speaker 3: would call it cultural enrichment. And if you take a
- 25:47Speaker 3: look at some of the literature they want these kids
- 25:49Speaker 3: to read, that's certainly how they're talking about it.
- 25:52Speaker 1: Now.
- 25:52Speaker 3: There is one book, for instance, called Kind. Now, this
- 25:55Speaker 3: is aimed at children of five years old, and it
- 25:58Speaker 3: includes a floatiller of boats that I know, well it's
- 26:03Speaker 3: you know, I've got to have lots of them, you see.
- 26:05Speaker 3: And on these boats are cartoon animals, lions and giraffes
- 26:08Speaker 3: are depicted coming to visit and.
- 26:11Speaker 1: They're already done in the Book of Genesis.
- 26:14Speaker 3: Good point, but they say, they say that if kids
- 26:18Speaker 3: are told by people, you know, oh, there's no room
- 26:21Speaker 3: for the illegal migrants, that the kids should tell people
- 26:24Speaker 3: there's plenty of room. Come on in. And on this point,
- 26:27Speaker 3: it says, after all, if you don't let people in,
- 26:29Speaker 3: you'll never know what you're missing. I mean, isn't that good.
- 26:33Speaker 3: You know you've got to know what you're missing, don't you.
- 26:36Speaker 3: It goes on to say, in this book, sometimes people
- 26:38Speaker 3: have lived through very hard times. They've had to leave
- 26:42Speaker 3: their homes and their countries because of danger. They are
- 26:45Speaker 3: brave and amazing and have extraordinary stories to tell. How
- 26:48Speaker 3: can you welcome them? Can you share your toys with them?
- 26:54Speaker 1: So bad?
- 26:54Speaker 4: Because you know it's terrible.
- 26:56Speaker 3: After all, if you don't let people in, you'll never
- 26:59Speaker 3: know what you'r The kiddies have to share their toys
- 27:02Speaker 3: with the illegal toys with each other, I know exactly.
- 27:06Speaker 3: I mean, good, good grief, trying to share. Imagine trying
- 27:09Speaker 3: to get them to share them with lines and giraffes
- 27:11Speaker 3: that have floated over on some little boats from France.
- 27:13Speaker 4: Lions and tigers and bears, oh my.
- 27:16Speaker 3: And then there's another book called Bobble. Now Bobble is
- 27:18Speaker 3: some blue creature. Apparently he also is getting about on
- 27:22Speaker 3: a small boat. And it says in this Bobble book,
- 27:25Speaker 3: finally he made it. He washed up onto land. Bobble
- 27:28Speaker 3: lay there for a while, just playing in the sand.
- 27:31Speaker 3: He sadly wasn't ready for the welcome he'd received. The
- 27:34Speaker 3: others stopped there dancing, but they didn't say hello. They
- 27:37Speaker 3: didn't want to welcome him. They wanted him to go.
- 27:41Speaker 3: There's no room for you here with us. You'll have
- 27:44Speaker 3: to try elsewhere. Travel to the next island and ask
- 27:47Speaker 3: if there's space there. How evil are.
- 27:53Speaker 1: Rhyme?
- 27:54Speaker 3: At least it's so elis really so? I mean, I
- 28:00Speaker 3: want to know about these thousand schools that have signed up,
- 28:03Speaker 3: you know, schools of sanctuary mob But the kids are
- 28:06Speaker 3: having their minds infected with this business, basically being told
- 28:10Speaker 3: letting all the migrants, because well, if you don't let
- 28:12Speaker 3: the illegal margrants in, you won't know what you're missing.
- 28:14Speaker 2: Well I don't know about you, but I was told
- 28:16Speaker 2: as a child don't speak to strangers, and yet here
- 28:18Speaker 2: We've got kids being encouraged to share their toys with strangers.
- 28:22Speaker 4: I mean, go figure that.
- 28:23Speaker 2: And let's not forget that a lot of these migrants
- 28:26Speaker 2: have been let into this country and then they've gone
- 28:28Speaker 2: on to commit rapes.
- 28:30Speaker 4: Sexual assaults are the violent.
- 28:32Speaker 1: Acts I don't think, well, kids have I'm not talking.
- 28:35Speaker 4: To kids, Joe, where did you get that from?
- 28:37Speaker 1: But they're talking about this is I'm talking about.
- 28:39Speaker 4: The migrants that have been let into the countries, are
- 28:40Speaker 4: legal migrants.
- 28:41Speaker 1: Yeah, but this is for kids coming into the country.
- 28:44Speaker 4: Well, if you let me finish my point, I might yeah, Okay.
- 28:47Speaker 2: The point I was trying to make is is that
- 28:49Speaker 2: a lot of these kids, we shouldn't be saying to kids,
- 28:52Speaker 2: these migrants are absolutely fantastic.
- 28:54Speaker 4: Share your toys with them, you know, have a little
- 28:57Speaker 4: chat with them.
- 28:57Speaker 2: When as I was going to go on to say,
- 28:59Speaker 2: a lot of these migrants have gone on to commit
- 29:02Speaker 2: sexual assaults, rapes and other violent acts, we should not
- 29:05Speaker 2: be encouraging children to think that every single illegal migrant
- 29:08Speaker 2: that is in the country right now is fantastic. I
- 29:12Speaker 2: think it is brainwashing children, and I think it's actually
- 29:14Speaker 2: very very.
- 29:15Speaker 4: Concerning as well.
- 29:17Speaker 2: And they even said here that children as young as five,
- 29:20Speaker 2: children as young as five are being targeted, and I
- 29:24Speaker 2: also that that line. I think you may have read it.
- 29:26Speaker 2: After all, if you don't let people in, you'll never
- 29:28Speaker 2: know what you're missing. Well, I think we know what's
- 29:31Speaker 2: going on in that country, and it's clear, very clear
- 29:34Speaker 2: that UK Labor has no control over it.
- 29:37Speaker 5: I think Bubble needs to get to a hospital pretty
- 29:39Speaker 5: quick because I'm pretty sure having that blue round head
- 29:42Speaker 5: and their tiny little ears that stick up like the
- 29:45Speaker 5: little inflatable balloon guy outside of used cast slot, I
- 29:49Speaker 5: don't think that's.
- 29:51Speaker 1: Yeah, I have that checked out.
- 29:53Speaker 5: It's like kids, you know, if you are going to
- 29:54Speaker 5: talk to strangers, don't talk to the blue ones.
- 29:57Speaker 4: Don't talk to strangers full stop. That's the danger. Don't
- 30:01Speaker 4: talk to you.
- 30:02Speaker 1: They're talking about kids.
- 30:04Speaker 5: When they're talking about sharing their toys, they're not talking
- 30:06Speaker 5: about sharing the toys with that.
- 30:07Speaker 1: They're talking about other asylum secret kids.
- 30:09Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's just don't talk strangers. But if you
- 30:12Speaker 4: don't know them, don't talk.
- 30:13Speaker 5: But that's not what you say to kids about other
- 30:15Speaker 5: kids about It doesn't.
- 30:16Speaker 4: Matter, it doesn't bad.
- 30:17Speaker 3: A point of these kids basically being having books put
- 30:21Speaker 3: in front of them by active as teachers telling them
- 30:24Speaker 3: that you know, the legal migration is okay. I mean
- 30:27Speaker 3: you don't send your kid off to school to receive
- 30:30Speaker 3: that lecture, surely.
- 30:32Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I think. I think, well, you're not meant
- 30:34Speaker 1: to have any sort of partisan politics in the classroom.
- 30:36Speaker 3: Have this mob Schools of Sanctuary allowed to operate with
- 30:39Speaker 3: a thousand thousands?
- 30:40Speaker 5: Yeah, because they do it with the same thing over there.
- 30:42Speaker 5: There would have been out of school organization that would come in.
- 30:44Speaker 5: It wouldn't necessarily be part of the actual school curriculum,
- 30:47Speaker 5: or the actual teacher would be someone who would come
- 30:49Speaker 5: in and have a little talk, or someone would write
- 30:51Speaker 5: the book and blah blah blah blah, and that's how
- 30:52Speaker 5: they get around all those things.
- 30:54Speaker 1: So anyway, anyway, I just want to make points.
- 30:57Speaker 2: Well, let's start stay in the UK now, the green
- 31:00Speaker 2: dream has claimed yet another victim. This time the Humble
- 31:03Speaker 2: Tumble dryer is being targeted by UK Labor. They want
- 31:07Speaker 2: to ban them as part of their net zero policy.
- 31:11Speaker 2: So currently it's a traditional dryer. It uses a heating
- 31:16Speaker 2: element to warm air, which passes through your clothes and
- 31:18Speaker 2: removes moisture that moisture is then condensed into water and
- 31:21Speaker 2: collected in a reservoir before being drained away. But UK
- 31:25Speaker 2: Labor wants to replace it with a heat pump dryer.
- 31:28Speaker 4: Which works a little bit differently.
- 31:30Speaker 2: The problem with the heat pump dryer is it will
- 31:31Speaker 2: cost you about forty pounds extra. If you want a
- 31:34Speaker 2: premium it will cost you about sixteen hundred pounds extra.
- 31:38Speaker 2: It takes about half an hour additionally to try and
- 31:41Speaker 2: dry your clothes, and by the way, it doesn't work
- 31:44Speaker 2: well in cold environments, but apparently that is the future
- 31:47Speaker 2: under the net zero policy.
- 31:50Speaker 4: The other issue is the noise. Have a listen. It
- 32:02Speaker 4: sounds like an absolute tractor.
- 32:03Speaker 2: I know that Caleb you u's one of these these
- 32:06Speaker 2: of the past, so keen to get your thoughts, but
- 32:08Speaker 2: I mean, seriously, we're in the middle of a cost
- 32:11Speaker 2: of living crisis and this is the priority of the
- 32:15Speaker 2: UK government. Some have described this as very as Soviet
- 32:18Speaker 2: era type of dictatorship of policy, because it is.
- 32:22Speaker 4: Whatever happened to personal choice.
- 32:25Speaker 2: It's like what we're having here in Australia where there's
- 32:27Speaker 2: this big push to go from gas to electric.
- 32:30Speaker 4: The problem with electric is it.
- 32:31Speaker 2: Does actually take a longer time to heat up your
- 32:33Speaker 2: food than what the gas cooker does. How about you
- 32:36Speaker 2: just let people have personal choice instead of just sending
- 32:39Speaker 2: us on this bizarre renewables only into the never never
- 32:42Speaker 2: where people now have to spend more money.
- 32:44Speaker 4: It's got to cost more. It's slower to do so
- 32:46Speaker 4: it doesn't work in cold environments.
- 32:48Speaker 3: Yeah, I want to see someone cook a proper Chinese
- 32:50Speaker 3: meal on a gas walk. I'm sorry, on an electric walk.
- 32:53Speaker 3: It's not possible. You need the gas. But these heat
- 32:56Speaker 3: pumped table jobs I have used, I don't own one.
- 32:58Speaker 3: We have used one, and they half an hour, and
- 33:02Speaker 3: you said half an hour, jeez, that it'd be nice.
- 33:04Speaker 3: They are awful. They take forever you put a full
- 33:07Speaker 3: load of now long I know, I know, half, No longer,
- 33:10Speaker 3: it's much more than half. How longer you put a
- 33:12Speaker 3: full load of washing in there? It takes forever to
- 33:15Speaker 3: bloody dry your clothes, and it like it pumps, the
- 33:18Speaker 3: gets the water out of the clothes. Then it puts
- 33:20Speaker 3: it in some bloody tank and you've got to take
- 33:23Speaker 3: this thing out and you got to empty the water out.
- 33:26Speaker 3: It's a load of garbage. It doesn't work properly, and
- 33:29Speaker 3: I know, they keep saying, we'll do all these things
- 33:32Speaker 3: to help the environment, but they keep asking us to
- 33:35Speaker 3: use products that are worse than the ones we had before. Now,
- 33:40Speaker 3: I know they argue that the ones we have at
- 33:41Speaker 3: the moment are worse for the environment, but they're effectively
- 33:44Speaker 3: asking us as a society in so many cases, to regress.
- 33:49Speaker 3: I mean, you know, forever we've been progressing and finding
- 33:52Speaker 3: ways to do things more efficiently and faster, and now
- 33:56Speaker 3: we're saying, no, actually, we've got to go backwards. We've
- 34:00Speaker 3: got to do things slower. We have to regress. As
- 34:02Speaker 3: a society. Who cares about you know, the human race
- 34:06Speaker 3: moving forward anymore, We've got to go backwards to allegedly
- 34:10Speaker 3: save the environment.
- 34:11Speaker 1: Bagger it.
- 34:12Speaker 3: What's the point. There's no point continuing if we're just
- 34:15Speaker 3: going to have to give up every bit of innovation
- 34:17Speaker 3: we've ever achieved.
- 34:18Speaker 5: Yeah, even I find it with a big family and
- 34:21Speaker 5: be loaded. Washing even like the normal dryer takes ages
- 34:25Speaker 5: and ages, and so we like my well, let's just
- 34:29Speaker 5: say my wife actually puts just half the load of
- 34:35Speaker 5: the washing machine in the dryer at it at the
- 34:38Speaker 5: time and does two loads because she says that it
- 34:41Speaker 5: doesn't dry it properly. And I said to her, said,
- 34:43Speaker 5: you know, you can actually just put it on for
- 34:46Speaker 5: twice as long.
- 34:48Speaker 1: Anyway you would not now.
- 34:49Speaker 3: You wouldn't be loading the tumble dryer. Would you have
- 34:53Speaker 3: to leave that time in your house?
- 34:57Speaker 1: Do load the tumble dryer. It's just that when I
- 34:59Speaker 1: do it, I do it still properly correctly.
- 35:01Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, there's always like this half. But again, but
- 35:05Speaker 5: if you've got a big light of washing, it actually
- 35:06Speaker 5: takes like even a full on normal tumble dryer takes
- 35:11Speaker 5: ages to do it. And if you've got a kid
- 35:12Speaker 5: who's jumping up and down and screaming at you because
- 35:14Speaker 5: their soccer year is not ready, or because their favorite
- 35:17Speaker 5: hat is still in the wash or whatever, I'm pretty
- 35:19Speaker 5: sure the heat pump is I mean, you're going to
- 35:22Speaker 5: get the heat, and you're going to get pumped.
- 35:23Speaker 3: We'll just make it worse in the name of the environment.
- 35:26Speaker 3: I just I can't believe we keep having to deal
- 35:28Speaker 3: with this stuff, and very quickly before we get to
- 35:30Speaker 3: a break. Apparently, if you're married, you'll cancer risk plummets.
- 35:35Speaker 3: This is from a new study by the University of
- 35:37Speaker 3: Miami Miller School of medicine, and to quote the UK
- 35:42Speaker 3: Telegraph today, they report that men who were never married
- 35:45Speaker 3: are about seventy percent more likely to develop cancer than
- 35:48Speaker 3: married men, while unmarried women increase their cancer risk by
- 35:52Speaker 3: eighty five percent. Now they do say that this is
- 35:56Speaker 3: not they're not telling you that this is a prescription
- 35:59Speaker 3: to marry, and they don't entirely no, thank you for
- 36:01Speaker 3: reading the entirely know why this is the case. But
- 36:04Speaker 3: you know, it would seem to indict I would imagine
- 36:05Speaker 3: that married people generally are happier, they're more contented, they're
- 36:09Speaker 3: better off in life, they probably have their finances in
- 36:12Speaker 3: order better than single people, et cetera. Peo would seem
- 36:15Speaker 3: to make sense that it would reduce your cancer risk.
- 36:18Speaker 3: So then you go, maybe it is a prescription to.
- 36:20Speaker 4: Many sickness and in health. Sickness and in health.
- 36:23Speaker 2: I think it's lovely because you check up on your partner,
- 36:25Speaker 2: you check up on them.
- 36:26Speaker 4: And you keep each other in check.
- 36:27Speaker 3: I think it's absolutely get married to save yourself.
- 36:31Speaker 5: Marrige's good for you live longer, you are more likely
- 36:34Speaker 5: to be better off, more likely to be employed, you're
- 36:37Speaker 5: more likely to be healthy.
- 36:39Speaker 2: It's a situation when you're wrong, they're married.
- 36:43Speaker 4: There you go, that is a motto out of all this.
- 36:45Speaker 4: We're going to take a quick break.
- 36:46Speaker 2: Coming up, we're going to see how the front pages
- 36:48Speaker 2: are covering that awful story up in the Northern Territory,
- 36:50Speaker 2: the little five year old girl found dead as search
- 36:53Speaker 2: for the purpose trade at continues.
- 36:55Speaker 4: That's next.
- 37:03Speaker 2: We just got some breaking news in the man that
- 37:06Speaker 2: the Northern Territory Police were looking for in relation to
- 37:09Speaker 2: the alleged abduction and murder of the little five year
- 37:12Speaker 2: old girl has indeed been arrested. We're hearing this just
- 37:16Speaker 2: coming through now from Northern Territory Police. Of course, the
- 37:20Speaker 2: body of the five year old Alice Springs girl was
- 37:22Speaker 2: found on Thursday, But just repeating that breaking news that
- 37:26Speaker 2: this man has since been arrested and we will try
- 37:30Speaker 2: and get more for you later. We are looking to
- 37:33Speaker 2: speak to our correspondent Matt Cunningham up there. But of course,
- 37:38Speaker 2: I mean, this is just an absolutely shocking story. This
- 37:40Speaker 2: Jefferson Lewis, has spent about five days now on the run.
- 37:45Speaker 2: But the forty seven year old, according to the Northern
- 37:48Speaker 2: Territory Police. I'm just reading from the Northern Territory News
- 37:51Speaker 2: website here that they captured him after he was last
- 37:54Speaker 2: seen walking with the little girl on Anzac Day. It's
- 37:59Speaker 2: just look, I mean, this is just so sad. This
- 38:03Speaker 2: is a story obviously that has really captured the heart
- 38:05Speaker 2: of the nation. Nobody ever expected an outcome like this.
- 38:11Speaker 2: I mean, what do you say to it? It's just
- 38:13Speaker 2: it is just unfathomable.
- 38:15Speaker 3: Caleb, Yeah, And I mean a lot of the papers
- 38:18Speaker 3: are running with it tomorrow, and I think that the
- 38:21Speaker 3: Advertiser probably put it pretty well when they head on
- 38:24Speaker 3: they do have on the front of their paper tomorrow
- 38:26Speaker 3: stolen by a monster. What more can you say? I mean, look,
- 38:32Speaker 3: there's a lot more you can say, and I'll probably
- 38:35Speaker 3: say it tomorrow night. But to think that you have
- 38:40Speaker 3: a situation in this country where a five year old
- 38:46Speaker 3: girl can be taken and murdered in the middle of
- 38:53Speaker 3: the night. The details, You know that they've they've found
- 38:59Speaker 3: DNA in clothing, they have found she was five kilometers
- 39:06Speaker 3: from the town camp where she had been living. You
- 39:11Speaker 3: know that this is not the first time we've seen
- 39:13Speaker 3: cases like this in the Northern Territory. How many times
- 39:19Speaker 3: do things like this need to happen in Indigenous communities
- 39:24Speaker 3: before someone stands up and says enough is enough. This
- 39:30Speaker 3: has to stop. Because I'm just I am so angry
- 39:34Speaker 3: about this, and I'm normally pretty levelheaded, but it just
- 39:39Speaker 3: makes me so damn angry that these things, you know,
- 39:45Speaker 3: the living conditions in these town camps, and you saw
- 39:50Speaker 3: last night just int a Nampa, Jim Price, who is
- 39:54Speaker 3: the auntie of this little girl, talking to Sharry Markson
- 39:59Speaker 3: about this and saying, you know, these town camps shouldn't exist.
- 40:03Speaker 3: I wouldn't want my kids in there. And yet somehow
- 40:07Speaker 3: as a country, we just kind of turn a blind
- 40:10Speaker 3: eye and say, well, out of sight, out of mind,
- 40:15Speaker 3: and then we get to situations like this. It is
- 40:18Speaker 3: a national disgrace.
- 40:21Speaker 4: Sorry, am, I'm just going to hop in there. I
- 40:23Speaker 4: just want to bring this to your attention.
- 40:25Speaker 2: Just having a look at the Australian website, there's an
- 40:29Speaker 2: exclusive there by Paige Taylor.
- 40:31Speaker 4: And Leam Mendez.
- 40:32Speaker 2: They are reporting right now that a vigilante group was
- 40:36Speaker 2: responsible for tracking down this man. It says that this
- 40:40Speaker 2: vigilante group tracked down and beat him. Jefferson Lewis was
- 40:46Speaker 2: found at Charles Creek Camp by a group of vigilantes
- 40:51Speaker 2: who allegedly bashed him before calling police. It says that
- 40:56Speaker 2: Jefferson Lewis was rushed to Alice Springs Whole Hospital under
- 41:00Speaker 2: police escort late on Thursday night. He arrived at hospital
- 41:05Speaker 2: before ten pm. A crowd of more than a hundred
- 41:08Speaker 2: had gathered outside of that hospital and were throwing rocks.
- 41:12Speaker 2: Of course, it comes just hours after police confirmed, of
- 41:17Speaker 2: course that she had died. Sorry, Joe, but I'm to
- 41:19Speaker 2: just let our viewers know that we according to The
- 41:22Speaker 2: Australian that it was a vigilante group that was involved
- 41:26Speaker 2: in this.
- 41:27Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it is.
- 41:28Speaker 5: It's I think anyone who's had anything to do with
- 41:31Speaker 5: Alice Springs over the past few years knows that it
- 41:34Speaker 5: has become basically this kind of wild West frontier town
- 41:40Speaker 5: in some ways. In many ways, perhaps it's sort of
- 41:42Speaker 5: always had that character. But I know when I you know,
- 41:47Speaker 5: I went there for a documentary series, visited some of
- 41:51Speaker 5: these town camps where they had the most beautiful kids,
- 41:55Speaker 5: and you know, I went on the school bus that
- 41:57Speaker 5: was sent around to pick up these kids and take
- 41:59Speaker 5: them to the local school where they would often need
- 42:03Speaker 5: to be fed breakfast because they hadn't had breakfast at
- 42:06Speaker 5: their homes. The school bus was sent around to each
- 42:10Speaker 5: home individually to pick up every single kid because they
- 42:13Speaker 5: couldn't always trust their parents to get them to school.
- 42:16Speaker 5: Otherwise you would see I remember one house.
- 42:21Speaker 1: It was just heartbreaking.
- 42:22Speaker 5: There's a beautiful little girl, picked her up, took it
- 42:24Speaker 5: to school, and her big brother was there at the
- 42:30Speaker 5: house at the home at about seven thirty or eight
- 42:32Speaker 5: o'clock in the morning, absolutely drunk out of his bombed
- 42:36Speaker 5: out of his mind. Obviously, there was an incident where
- 42:40Speaker 5: we were attacked and had rocks thrown at us while
- 42:45Speaker 5: we were interviewing some people, and another group of people
- 42:48Speaker 5: came and started throwing rocks at us. I spoke to
- 42:51Speaker 5: other people, both on and off the record about what
- 42:54Speaker 5: life was like there. One of the complaints was that
- 42:59Speaker 5: there was one day they weren't allowed to buy beer,
- 43:03Speaker 5: and you just sort of think, this is this is
- 43:06Speaker 5: not this is not a first world notion. This is
- 43:08Speaker 5: not anything that should be happening or allowed to happen
- 43:12Speaker 5: in Australia. My wife worked for many, many years for
- 43:18Speaker 5: a news agency in the Northern Territory, and again the
- 43:20Speaker 5: things that she saw, the sexual assaults and not just
- 43:24Speaker 5: the number of them, but the nature of them, I mean,
- 43:27Speaker 5: just the most horrible stuff which I can't repair here,
- 43:30Speaker 5: and I think, in many ways the most revealing. I mean,
- 43:34Speaker 5: you know, we have plenty of plenty of non indigenous
- 43:38Speaker 5: monsters as well.
- 43:39Speaker 1: Who do horrible, horrible, horrible.
- 43:41Speaker 5: Things to kids. That's by no means unique. But I
- 43:44Speaker 5: think the illuminating thing is the conditions that this poor
- 43:48Speaker 5: little girl was living in before the most horrendous thing
- 43:51Speaker 5: happened to her.
- 43:52Speaker 1: It was no place for a kid to be living.
- 43:55Speaker 1: And again, and this is not.
- 43:58Speaker 5: I know, anyone who's worked in this space or reported
- 44:00Speaker 5: on this sort of stuff knows that that is not
- 44:03Speaker 5: an outlier. We know that these are the conditions that
- 44:07Speaker 5: all these kids grow up in. And you meet them
- 44:10Speaker 5: and you thought the most beautiful, hope filled, wonderful little children.
- 44:15Speaker 5: And if you let them continue in that environment and
- 44:21Speaker 5: don't give them the education, don't give them the hype,
- 44:23Speaker 5: don't give them the love, then they will end up
- 44:25Speaker 5: like you know, that little girl's big brother when they're teenagers,
- 44:29Speaker 5: and then we all know what happens.
- 44:31Speaker 1: Up that well.
- 44:32Speaker 2: I remember, back in twenty eighteen, there was that case
- 44:35Speaker 2: of a toddler being raped as well.
- 44:38Speaker 1: Up.
- 44:38Speaker 5: Yeah, there's been there there is there has been a lot.
- 44:42Speaker 5: There has been a lot, There've been Okay, there's you know,
- 44:45Speaker 5: and again it's it's unbearable to think about, but you know,
- 44:48Speaker 5: you have but.
- 44:49Speaker 4: It's sorry, sorry to interrupt.
- 44:51Speaker 2: We're just gonna this is a live shot that's coming
- 44:54Speaker 2: up coming into us from the newsroom.
- 44:56Speaker 1: Now.
- 44:57Speaker 2: Now I believe this is outside of the hospital.
- 45:02Speaker 4: And shortly we will shortly we.
- 45:03Speaker 2: Will go to Matt Cunningham, our reporter up on the scene.
- 45:06Speaker 2: But obviously there is quite a heavy police presence there.
- 45:11Speaker 2: There's a lot of yelling, there's a lot of screaming.
- 45:15Speaker 2: People are obviously very very upset in the town. You
- 45:18Speaker 2: can understand something like this, you just it is completely unfathomable.
- 45:23Speaker 2: As I said earlier, the Australian is reporting that it
- 45:25Speaker 2: was a vigilante group that were involved in this arrest and.
- 45:29Speaker 4: That they actually beat this man.
- 45:31Speaker 2: He was then taken to the hospital, where a crowd
- 45:34Speaker 2: has since gathered outside. You could understand the tensions right now,
- 45:38Speaker 2: and you would think that police would be quite worried
- 45:41Speaker 2: about this because we have seen in the past a
- 45:43Speaker 2: lot of riots up there or you know, again, tensions
- 45:46Speaker 2: are very very high.
- 45:48Speaker 4: In the town at the moment.
- 45:49Speaker 2: We are going to speak to our correspondent Matt Cunningham soon,
- 45:54Speaker 2: but I mean you'd be pretty worried right now if
- 45:56Speaker 2: you were police, you'd be thinking we're going to have
- 45:58Speaker 2: to call for backupretty quickly because things are looking pretty
- 46:02Speaker 2: pretty fiery already.
- 46:04Speaker 3: Kaylee, and understand, Actually I'm.
- 46:06Speaker 2: Sorry, sorry, sorry, We are actually going to go to
- 46:08Speaker 2: Matt Cunningham. He's joining us on the line. Matt, where
- 46:12Speaker 2: are you and tell us what's happening, nigger.
- 46:15Speaker 7: I'm outside the Other Springs hospital.
- 46:17Speaker 8: And as you can see, there is a huge mob
- 46:21Speaker 8: of angry.
- 46:21Speaker 7: People who have gathered out here. This is where the
- 46:26Speaker 7: league Jefferth from Lewis is now.
- 46:28Speaker 8: As you were saying in Australian reporting that there was
- 46:31Speaker 8: a vigil anti attack.
- 46:32Speaker 7: We haven't had.
- 46:33Speaker 8: Confirmation from police that he has been arrested, but I
- 46:37Speaker 8: mean it is just wild seeing here. There are interially
- 46:40Speaker 8: hundreds of people.
- 46:42Speaker 7: Shathered outside the hospital.
- 46:44Speaker 8: And they are going they are happy. You can see
- 46:48Speaker 8: here there's a group of police who's set up out
- 46:50Speaker 8: in the front of the hospital. There are police vehicles,
- 46:54Speaker 8: there are several police officers.
- 46:56Speaker 7: Out in the front of the hospital, but there are
- 46:57Speaker 7: people going, there are people shouting, there.
- 47:01Speaker 8: Are people who are very unhappy with this situation. I'm
- 47:06Speaker 8: really volatile situation going on here at the moment, Danika,
- 47:10Speaker 8: and it looks like it's going to continue for some time.
- 47:13Speaker 3: Ah Madam's Caleb. Obviously, as you say, those tensions are
- 47:17Speaker 3: flaring out the front of the hospital. Presumably there's are
- 47:20Speaker 3: people and who would if they could take revenge against
- 47:26Speaker 3: what mister Lewis is accused of doing. What's the police
- 47:30Speaker 3: situation like there at the moment is does this look
- 47:34Speaker 3: like it's about to kick off? Is it under control?
- 47:38Speaker 8: So I think you're asking what the police situation is like, Yeah.
- 47:43Speaker 7: I think it's probably about ten or twelve or police
- 47:47Speaker 7: office here at the moment the France, But I mean
- 47:51Speaker 7: they are out numbered by peasle here, you know, probably
- 47:56Speaker 7: you know, thirty forty one.
- 47:58Speaker 8: There is a.
- 47:59Speaker 7: Massive crowd that has gathered here.
- 48:01Speaker 8: Now a lot of the people are just standing back
- 48:04Speaker 8: and watching, but there are as you will be able
- 48:07Speaker 8: to see there's a group at the front who are
- 48:10Speaker 8: really yelling that they're unhappy. It's clear that they want
- 48:15Speaker 8: to get their own sort of justice, their own sort.
- 48:18Speaker 7: Of retribution against the man who you believe is being
- 48:23Speaker 7: held in the whole.
- 48:23Speaker 5: Floor of the Money and Maddie, it's Joe here. Do
- 48:27Speaker 5: you feel like this angry is all directed at Jefferson
- 48:30Speaker 5: Lewis or do you feel there might be some director
- 48:32Speaker 5: towards the police or other figures of authority. Do you
- 48:35Speaker 5: yourself feel in any way threatened or unsafe or is
- 48:38Speaker 5: it just this crowd going after just this man.
- 48:42Speaker 8: I think there is absolutely one target of their anger,
- 48:47Speaker 8: and it is Jefferson Lewis. I mean, I've been standing
- 48:50Speaker 8: in the middle of his mob now for ten minutes
- 48:51Speaker 8: and I.
- 48:52Speaker 7: Do not feel threatened in any way, shape or form.
- 48:56Speaker 7: At this stage. They haven't come anywhere of.
- 49:01Speaker 8: They probably stay five to ten meters back away from
- 49:04Speaker 8: the police. But as you know, in a crowd situation
- 49:08Speaker 8: like this, you know, Joe, things can can turn pretty
- 49:11Speaker 8: ugly pretty quickly, and there's a lot of emotion happening
- 49:15Speaker 8: here at the moment. But to answer your question directly,
- 49:19Speaker 8: you know the person that they are directing new anger
- 49:21Speaker 8: act is Jefferson Lewis.
- 49:23Speaker 1: Good to know.
- 49:24Speaker 4: As long as you're safe, my friend, Yeah, as long
- 49:25Speaker 4: as You're safe, Matt.
- 49:27Speaker 2: Obviously this has only just happened, this arrest that has
- 49:31Speaker 2: been made.
- 49:32Speaker 4: Are we expecting it all to hear from police? Matt?
- 49:35Speaker 4: What are you hearing?
- 49:36Speaker 2: Can you give us any more information about this arrest?
- 49:41Speaker 8: Well, police have just simply put out a two line statement, Daneta,
- 49:47Speaker 8: and that simply says that they've made this arrest and
- 49:50Speaker 8: that they will start this further tomorrow.
- 49:54Speaker 7: So we're not expecting to hear from them tonight.
- 49:57Speaker 8: I have been missing a couple of from Belief while
- 50:00Speaker 8: I've been on the phone with you, so.
- 50:02Speaker 7: I don't know if it is an update to that situation.
- 50:06Speaker 8: We are due to talk with the police Commissioner, Martin
- 50:08Speaker 8: Goal at seven point thirty tomorrow morning. He's going to
- 50:11Speaker 8: be on first Edition with p seven Ovis. But at
- 50:15Speaker 8: this stage, other than that two line statement that has
- 50:18Speaker 8: been released, at this stage, we are not expecting checking
- 50:22Speaker 8: from police tonight.
- 50:26Speaker 3: Obviously, we'll hear anything further later. And you're waiting to
- 50:31Speaker 3: hear more from the police. And as I heard you
- 50:34Speaker 3: talking to Peter Kreedlin about this earlier this evening, you
- 50:37Speaker 3: know this is not the first time we've seen something
- 50:40Speaker 3: of this nature in the Northern Territory, and you can
- 50:43Speaker 3: imagine the anger that those people there that you are
- 50:47Speaker 3: seeing tonight must be feeling, because they are feeling let down.
- 50:51Speaker 3: It's not the first time they've seen this. Now they're
- 50:54Speaker 3: seeing it again. It's understandable that they are letting their
- 50:58Speaker 3: anger out.
- 51:00Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely, Caleb.
- 51:02Speaker 8: I just think it had a bit of an update
- 51:03Speaker 8: on the situation here as well. So we looked out
- 51:06Speaker 8: here that I was standing before, which is where most
- 51:08Speaker 8: of the crowd was gathered.
- 51:10Speaker 7: There is a group that have now moved.
- 51:13Speaker 8: Up here closer to police and pretty much face to
- 51:17Speaker 8: face with police.
- 51:20Speaker 7: So police are obviously talking to the people here, trying
- 51:23Speaker 7: to calm them down as much as they can, but
- 51:27Speaker 7: there are a lot of angry people here.
- 51:30Speaker 8: And yeah, I would say that this is a situation
- 51:35Speaker 8: that's really developing at the moment, and we're seeing out
- 51:38Speaker 8: the pretending for things to potentially get out of him.
- 51:43Speaker 3: Have you heard anything, Matt about the circumstances in which
- 51:48Speaker 3: he was arrested? Obviously the odds reporting that a mob
- 51:52Speaker 3: found him and bashed him before they called police. Do
- 51:55Speaker 3: you have any further details on that.
- 51:58Speaker 7: I don't have any further details on that.
- 52:00Speaker 9: I understand that he was a record near the Charles
- 52:04Speaker 9: Breeks Camp on the north side of town, near the
- 52:07Speaker 9: north side Ida, and he was arrested at a home there.
- 52:11Speaker 8: So that's on the other side of town to where.
- 52:15Speaker 7: The actually the actual incident took place.
- 52:19Speaker 8: But other than that, I know, I'm aware of those reports, Taylor,
- 52:24Speaker 8: but I can't confirm them independently myself.
- 52:26Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, all right, well, look this is we see
- 52:29Speaker 4: a very volatile situation. Matt Cunningham.
- 52:31Speaker 2: We appreciate your reporting. We will be keeping in touch
- 52:34Speaker 2: with Matt Cunningham. Later on in the show. We are
- 52:37Speaker 2: going to take a quick break, but do stay with us.
- 52:39Speaker 2: Newsnight is next with all the latest information, including Matt
- 52:42Speaker 2: Cunningham live there from the scene.
