Speaker 1: Lone from the Sky New Center.
0:03
Speaker 2: This is the Kenny Report.
0:06
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining me.
0:07
Speaker 3: Tonight's special treatment for Islamic State women allowed into the
0:12
Speaker 3: country without facing charges, but the government says, don't presume
0:16
Speaker 3: investigations are over taxpayer funded bureaucrats fighting for the rights
0:21
Speaker 3: of men to avoid discrimination over potentially being pregnant.
0:26
Speaker 1: You couldn't make this stuff up. Pauline Hanson will join me.
0:29
Speaker 3: It's her birthday and she shared cake today with Clive Palmer.
0:34
Speaker 1: What did they discuss?
0:35
Speaker 3: Former British Labor Prime Minister Tony Blair says it's time
0:39
Speaker 3: that affordable energy trumped net zero and the Wednesday wrangle
0:44
Speaker 3: with Danika and Justin let's get into it. I'm going
0:50
Speaker 3: to show you two things that happened in this country
0:53
Speaker 3: yesterday that show you this country has lost the plot
0:58
Speaker 3: I to spare. We need to restore the rule of
1:01
Speaker 3: common sense somehow. First up, the Islamic State brides, the
1:06
Speaker 3: Islamic State women and their families returning to this country.
1:10
Speaker 3: People who left this country to join a murderous barbaric
1:15
Speaker 3: Islamist extremist state and Islamist caliphate. Opposed to Australia, opposed
1:21
Speaker 3: to democracy, opposed to liberty and equal rights, opposed to
1:26
Speaker 3: everything except what exists under Islamist sharia law. This was
1:31
Speaker 3: an outfit dedicated to terror and murder. Yet when all
1:36
Speaker 3: that turned to custard, they decided to head home and
1:40
Speaker 3: our government let them. Two women and seven children landed
1:44
Speaker 3: in Melbourne last night, along with four women and six
1:47
Speaker 3: children in Sydney one woman. Only one of this whole
1:52
Speaker 3: cohort has been barred from returning. Earlier this month, four
1:57
Speaker 3: women returned, but three of them were arrested over serious
2:02
Speaker 3: alleged crimes immediately after their arrival, while one Melbourne woman
2:07
Speaker 3: walked free. This time, all six adults were allowed into
2:12
Speaker 3: the country without any word of charges.
2:16
Speaker 4: Yesterday, the Prime Minister said ISIS sympathizers who returned to
2:20
Speaker 4: Australia would face the full force of the law. How
2:25
Speaker 4: many ISIS sympathizers who arrived in Australia last night have
2:30
Speaker 4: been arrested or charged for entering a declared terrorists zone.
2:36
Speaker 5: Of the two cohorts that have arrived in recent weeks,
2:40
Speaker 5: there are three currently behind bars. Those three who are
2:45
Speaker 5: currently behind bars one four charged with entering a declared area,
2:51
Speaker 5: two charged with crimes against humanity. No one should presume
2:56
Speaker 5: that at any point in time the work of the
2:59
Speaker 5: Australian Federal Police in terms of investigating and gathering evidence
3:04
Speaker 5: is over now.
3:05
Speaker 3: If that's not curious enough, what about the way they
3:08
Speaker 3: slipped through the airport. The four women who arrived in
3:12
Speaker 3: Sydney were offered a government welfare check in a secure area,
3:17
Speaker 3: so authorities enabled them to be ushered away without walking
3:22
Speaker 3: through the arrivals hall. In other words, they were given
3:26
Speaker 3: special treatment.
3:28
Speaker 6: If my sister or any of the sisters have done
3:30
Speaker 6: anything wrong, then they will be faced with the full
3:33
Speaker 6: force of the law.
3:34
Speaker 2: At the same time, these guys are Australian citizens, their
3:36
Speaker 2: kids are Australian citizens.
3:39
Speaker 3: In a country still reeling from our worst ever terror attack,
3:42
Speaker 3: when two gunmen allegedly inspired by Islamic State killed fifteen
3:47
Speaker 3: people at Bondai less than six months ago. In this country,
3:51
Speaker 3: we usher in under special treatment six women who were
3:56
Speaker 3: part of the Islamic State caliphate in Syria, and it
4:01
Speaker 3: doesn't make sense. It clearly exposes our country to additional
4:06
Speaker 3: national security risks, and it again shows complete disregard for
4:12
Speaker 3: the Jewish communities that have been targeted for two and
4:15
Speaker 3: a half years.
4:16
Speaker 1: Now have a look at this reporting by the Australians.
4:19
Speaker 7: Liam Mendes, I'm going to take you inside the top
4:23
Speaker 7: secret operation to get the so called Isis bride's home
4:28
Speaker 7: after touching down at Sydney Airport on Tuesday evening.
4:32
Speaker 8: After landing, they were escorted to the Meriton Suites in
4:35
Speaker 8: Zelin in two avers higher cars. Now, while they were there,
4:39
Speaker 8: we saw some Domino's pizza being dropped off to reception
4:43
Speaker 8: and riot police were also seen at the hotel. But
4:47
Speaker 8: when one group came to leave, this is members of
4:50
Speaker 8: the Zahab family. They were escorted down into an underground
4:54
Speaker 8: car park and this is a bit of what their
4:57
Speaker 8: relatives had to say as they picked them up.
5:00
Speaker 7: Happy to be home, of course, we.
5:01
Speaker 1: Are happy to be safe.
5:02
Speaker 9: We're happy if that be safe in an our thy
5:04
Speaker 9: country and thank you Australians.
5:09
Speaker 8: Then they drove to the family home in southwest Sydney
5:12
Speaker 8: where more relatives were waiting for them. Now, the four
5:16
Speaker 8: women and six children were given the option to walk
5:19
Speaker 8: out of the airport's main exit or be assisted through
5:22
Speaker 8: a side exit. Now they took the second option.
5:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, Jewish Australians mourn their dead, while the families of
5:32
Speaker 3: Islamists extremist terrorists get a special welcome to Australia. This
5:38
Speaker 3: is sickening and as ever on these issues, the government
5:43
Speaker 3: washes its hands. It suggests that this is all happening
5:46
Speaker 3: without its input. The Prime Minister behaves like a spectator
5:51
Speaker 3: rather than a leader. We need someone to keep the
5:56
Speaker 3: country safe, we need someone to stand up again against
6:00
Speaker 3: Islamist extremism, and we've got a Prime minister who won't
6:05
Speaker 3: even utter those words. The other indication that this nation
6:13
Speaker 3: has lost its way also came last night, but in
6:16
Speaker 3: Canberra at Senate estimates, and it relates to the essential
6:20
Speaker 3: biological difference between men and women. Here's the president of
6:26
Speaker 3: the Human Rights Commission.
6:28
Speaker 10: No, I'm asking him from the commission's perspective, what is
6:31
Speaker 10: a woman?
6:32
Speaker 1: An adult female human?
6:35
Speaker 10: Thank you, and includes a transgender woman? Thank you very much.
6:39
Speaker 3: Yes, women are women, but so trans women apparently, who
6:44
Speaker 3: biologically are men?
6:46
Speaker 1: Clear as mud.
6:48
Speaker 3: But then we heard a tortured exchange about possible workplace
6:52
Speaker 3: discrimination over pregnancy. Here's the Sex Discrimination Commissioner, who you'd
6:58
Speaker 3: think would be all over the facts about sex transwomen.
7:04
Speaker 11: If someone is who applies for a job, for example, yes,
7:09
Speaker 11: and it is a trans woman, and she may be
7:14
Speaker 11: asked whether or not she intends to have children, and
7:18
Speaker 11: if she replies yes, I do, and then doesn't get
7:21
Speaker 11: the job because that employer doesn't want to employ women
7:25
Speaker 11: who maybe of childbearing age, then she may have been
7:30
Speaker 11: subjected to unlawful discrimination on the basis of potential pregnancy.
7:36
Speaker 10: I'm very confused. A biological male can't become pregnant.
7:41
Speaker 11: But the grounds of pregnancy includes potential pregnancy as well
7:46
Speaker 11: as pregnancy.
7:47
Speaker 10: But if they can't become pregnant, how can you then
7:50
Speaker 10: become potentially pregnant?
7:52
Speaker 11: It's about the unlawful treatment by the employer.
7:57
Speaker 3: Your taxes at work, paid officials discussing the potential for
8:02
Speaker 3: men to be discriminated against for having babies or potentially
8:07
Speaker 3: having babies.
8:09
Speaker 1: We must be a civilization in decline.
8:12
Speaker 3: I mean what is now actual earnest public service? Social
8:17
Speaker 3: engineering not so long ago was just brilliant satire. We
8:22
Speaker 3: shall fight the our presses for your right to have babies,
8:25
Speaker 3: brother sister.
8:27
Speaker 12: What's the point, well, what's the point of fight entries
8:31
Speaker 12: right to have babies when you can't have babies?
8:35
Speaker 3: Life is imitating art. Our bureaucrats, our own government now
8:41
Speaker 3: gives us life of Brian except they're serious. I guess
8:47
Speaker 3: we should just count ourselves lucky that the country is
8:49
Speaker 3: not being run by biggest dickas. Hang on a minute,
8:57
Speaker 3: just a bit of media news that broke this after
9:00
Speaker 3: Remember Justin Stevens. He's the ABC's head of News and
9:05
Speaker 3: carrot Affairs, a job he's done very poorly in my view.
9:09
Speaker 3: Over a number of years. He's been paid almost seven
9:12
Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars a year by taxpayers to run the
9:16
Speaker 3: news operation that shows political and ideological bias and repeatedly
9:21
Speaker 3: gets major issues wrong. But instead of fixing that, he's
9:26
Speaker 3: been busy trying to control journalists in the private sector.
9:30
Speaker 1: Like his letter aimed at silencing me.
9:33
Speaker 3: He sent it to Michael Miller, the executive chair of
9:36
Speaker 3: News Corp Australasia, copying in the CEO of Sky News,
9:40
Speaker 3: Paul Whittaker and editor in chief of The Australian, Michelle Gunn.
9:45
Speaker 3: The letter says that my column in last Weekend's Australian
9:49
Speaker 3: and an editorial on this program last week focusing on
9:53
Speaker 3: ABC correspondent Matthew Dorean in the Middle East were quote
9:58
Speaker 3: a disgrace. In my column in The Australian, I said
10:02
Speaker 3: Rebel News was unfair to Dorian, holding him single handedly
10:05
Speaker 3: responsible for the ABC's appalling coverage, when blame lies much
10:10
Speaker 3: more broadly with the ABC News and Current Affairs Division,
10:14
Speaker 3: its practitioners, and its leadership. Well, that leadership is about
10:21
Speaker 3: to change now that Stephens quit today. After so many
10:26
Speaker 3: controversies in recent years, most recently the way the ABC's
10:30
Speaker 3: blatant and damaging anti Israel bias has been exposed.
10:35
Speaker 1: Stephens is leaving the ABC.
10:38
Speaker 3: That's probably a good thing, but it doesn't mean the
10:41
Speaker 3: ABC is back on track, not if the chairman's words
10:45
Speaker 3: I show you last, showed you last night are any
10:48
Speaker 3: guide at all.
10:50
Speaker 13: The ABC is not an especially left wing or right
10:54
Speaker 13: wing organization, and in fact, the majority of ABC journalis
10:58
Speaker 13: I would defy anyone to know how they vote. No,
11:02
Speaker 13: I reckon, I can guess, well, you know, I guess
11:05
Speaker 13: you guess you might.
11:07
Speaker 1: What a joke?
11:09
Speaker 3: Still the head of news that the ABC is now going,
11:13
Speaker 3: and there's talk that they'll get someone from outside, So
11:16
Speaker 3: instead of appointing an in house leftist, perhaps they'll get
11:20
Speaker 3: a leftist from somewhere else. Let's go to Queensland now
11:27
Speaker 3: and catch up with the One Nation leader, Pauline Hansen.
11:30
Speaker 1: Pauline, Happy birthday to.
11:32
Speaker 14: You, Hi, Chris.
11:35
Speaker 1: Right, thanks Chris Well, it's been out there, it's been
11:40
Speaker 1: out there.
11:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you've been celebrating your birthday with a birthday
11:44
Speaker 3: cake shared with Clive Palmer.
11:47
Speaker 1: What on earth were you too nice chatting about?
11:51
Speaker 15: I know it came to my office and he arrived
11:54
Speaker 15: with this beautiful bunch of roses and flowers and two
11:57
Speaker 15: cakes which I shared with my staff and it was beautiful.
12:01
Speaker 15: Love him and very kind of him to do that.
12:03
Speaker 15: So he was supposed to have a meeting with James Ashby,
12:06
Speaker 15: but I was there, so I had the meeting with him.
12:09
Speaker 14: But it's just to.
12:10
Speaker 15: Pass on and say, hi, how are you going, Just
12:12
Speaker 15: a little bit of advice.
12:14
Speaker 14: These people like.
12:14
Speaker 15: To, you know, pass on their concerns and everything that
12:18
Speaker 15: he said about the cost of living, about you know
12:21
Speaker 15: what's happening with the strains out there that are you know,
12:24
Speaker 15: doing it tough and only he told me I over
12:26
Speaker 15: seven million people in Australia are actually only getting one
12:29
Speaker 15: meal a day.
12:30
Speaker 1: No chance that Clive concerning to me no chance that
12:33
Speaker 1: Clive Palmer is going to jump on board with One Nation.
12:38
Speaker 15: No, there was no talk about that whatsoever. So, like
12:42
Speaker 15: I have said before, I talk to anyone, you know, billionaires,
12:46
Speaker 15: and I talk to their average person, tradees, you know, farmers.
12:49
Speaker 15: I talked to everyone and get their opinion on policies
12:52
Speaker 15: and where the country's going. And he's backing up everything
12:55
Speaker 15: that I'm saying.
12:56
Speaker 1: Yeah.
12:56
Speaker 3: The thing that strikes me about Clive Palmer those he's
12:59
Speaker 3: spending a lot of money at the moment on political advertising,
13:02
Speaker 3: just making his own political points.
13:04
Speaker 1: But to no end.
13:05
Speaker 3: There's no party, there's no election campaign there.
13:08
Speaker 1: I don't know why he's spending the money.
13:10
Speaker 3: It might be a lot more useful if he put
13:12
Speaker 3: some of that money into One Nation and helped you
13:14
Speaker 3: out with candidates, and perhaps put his name up as
13:17
Speaker 3: a One Nation candidate himself.
13:21
Speaker 15: Forget about the candidate bitch. But I would say if
13:25
Speaker 15: he wanted to put some money towards he might be
13:28
Speaker 15: watching your program now and be told about this, So
13:31
Speaker 15: that might be an indication. Yes, I've got no problems
13:33
Speaker 15: about taking any donations to help us.
13:35
Speaker 3: We'll give us a collection, give us a cool Clive
13:38
Speaker 3: if you are watching, I'm interested to know what you're
13:40
Speaker 3: doing politically. But did he suggest to you that there
13:42
Speaker 3: might be some money coming your way?
13:46
Speaker 1: No?
13:46
Speaker 15: No, talk about money, not at all. No, very complementary
13:50
Speaker 15: way we're going at the moment how the party's been run.
13:53
Speaker 15: So no, he was very gracious, he was very kind,
13:58
Speaker 15: and it was a beautiful surprise to get the the
14:00
Speaker 15: flowers and the cake. So I appreciate that.
14:03
Speaker 1: Just on your birthday.
14:04
Speaker 3: You know, it's impolite to talk about a woman's age,
14:07
Speaker 3: but you've been around in public life for a while
14:09
Speaker 3: now when you have a birthday like.
14:11
Speaker 15: This, do you say it anyway?
14:12
Speaker 1: No, I won't say it.
14:13
Speaker 3: I won't say it, But I'm interested in how long
14:16
Speaker 3: are you going to stay in politics? I mean, you've
14:18
Speaker 3: got one nation really at such a high point at
14:20
Speaker 3: the moment. Can you see yourself being there in another three,
14:23
Speaker 3: four or five years?
14:26
Speaker 14: Well, why wouldn't I?
14:27
Speaker 15: How long is a piece of strength if you've come
14:29
Speaker 15: this far after all these years, do you think I'm
14:31
Speaker 15: going to turn my back and walk away from it?
14:33
Speaker 1: Now?
14:33
Speaker 15: At the point when we're getting traction and so people
14:36
Speaker 15: are starting wake up to one nation and what we
14:38
Speaker 15: stand for a velues and principles. Do you think I'm
14:40
Speaker 15: going to walk away?
14:41
Speaker 1: Chris?
14:41
Speaker 15: I can tell you what. I can still leave a
14:43
Speaker 15: lot of those other women for dead on that floor
14:46
Speaker 15: of the Senate.
14:47
Speaker 14: And I'm a lot older than.
14:48
Speaker 15: What they are, so don't right me off. And that's
14:52
Speaker 15: what I keep telling people. I can still run down
14:53
Speaker 15: the halls halls of Parliament when I have to get
14:56
Speaker 15: to that chamber.
14:58
Speaker 3: What is your thoughts about the six isis women, Islamic
15:03
Speaker 3: State women coming into the country last night, none of
15:06
Speaker 3: them being charged.
15:09
Speaker 15: I'm absolutely disgusted with it, the same as millions and
15:14
Speaker 15: millions of Australians. What the hell has happened to our country?
15:18
Speaker 15: That's what I keep asking the question about. And you
15:21
Speaker 15: mentioned about the Jewish community. How must they feel? You know, Chris,
15:25
Speaker 15: We're in such a decline in this nation, and I
15:28
Speaker 15: believe that the government has lied to us time and
15:31
Speaker 15: time again. Why are we paying for the bills? If
15:35
Speaker 15: they're putting it at the hotel, who's paying for that?
15:37
Speaker 15: Let their families pay for it? Why are we paying
15:39
Speaker 15: for it? And then they ask if the children might
15:44
Speaker 15: want to go to do radicalization programs. I wouldn't give
15:48
Speaker 15: them a choice, Chris. If I was in charge of
15:50
Speaker 15: this country, there's no one in the wide world would
15:53
Speaker 15: I would have done everything I possibly could legally to
15:56
Speaker 15: stop them from ever coming to this country again. And
16:00
Speaker 15: that's what we've got to do. We've got to protect
16:02
Speaker 15: this nation. I feel that the tentacles of radical Islam
16:06
Speaker 15: is spreading in Australia, this ideology, and I just don't
16:11
Speaker 15: I fear for the future.
16:12
Speaker 3: Well, we have a massive problem in this country with
16:16
Speaker 3: Islamist extremism.
16:17
Speaker 1: We saw that BONDI if.
16:19
Speaker 3: There were ever any doubt is and the idea that
16:21
Speaker 3: you would bring in more people who have been exposed
16:23
Speaker 3: to those radical ideas, in fact have supported those radical
16:26
Speaker 3: ideas in the past is just a sovereign suicide in
16:31
Speaker 3: my view, and we've got to do something about it.
16:34
Speaker 3: I've got to get your thoughts on the budget, Pauline.
16:36
Speaker 3: Are you expecting that you'll be sidelined as negotiations go
16:41
Speaker 3: on about the government's budget measures and potential carve outs
16:45
Speaker 3: from capital gains taxes and changes to negative gearing. If
16:48
Speaker 3: they make any changes, they'll be negotiated presumably with the
16:52
Speaker 3: coalition and the Greens, won't.
16:53
Speaker 15: They correct that's right, Chris. They will do. They don't
16:57
Speaker 15: negotiated with me at all on anything, so they can
17:01
Speaker 15: bypass me. They can go to per Cock, they can
17:03
Speaker 15: go to now they've got Tammy Tyrrell in their ranks.
17:08
Speaker 15: She was a Greenie anyway, she's more green than Labor
17:11
Speaker 15: and Jackie Lamberg. Who knows which way that woman votes.
17:14
Speaker 15: But she's hardly in the parliament now because of her injuries.
17:18
Speaker 15: She's not well and payment. Of course she's on the
17:22
Speaker 15: side of the labor anyway, so there's no negotiation with us.
17:25
Speaker 15: But you know, I think that they've made a big mistake,
17:29
Speaker 15: especially with capital gains tax. I think they'll reverse it
17:32
Speaker 15: on the businesses. They'll try and keep it on the housing.
17:35
Speaker 15: Tell people this had nothing to do with getting the
17:37
Speaker 15: young ones into the housing. This is about more money
17:40
Speaker 15: into the coffers for the Labor Party, nothing about getting
17:42
Speaker 15: people into housing.
17:44
Speaker 14: They could address that.
17:45
Speaker 15: By pulling back on mass migration, the foreign ownership of
17:48
Speaker 15: a housing. And if you're gonna have the negative gearing,
17:52
Speaker 15: well then I'd put it to two houses limited two
17:55
Speaker 15: houses and let people invest in the housing as they
17:58
Speaker 15: have done to provide for in life and the younger
18:01
Speaker 15: ones can invest in a house the negative geared while
18:04
Speaker 15: they're still at home living with their parents, to try
18:06
Speaker 15: and power of them all. We just then move into
18:07
Speaker 15: the house.
18:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's sort of a reform. Would have got a
18:11
Speaker 3: lot more support. I think they've got the numbers. Of course,
18:13
Speaker 3: they can rail anything they want through the Senate with
18:15
Speaker 3: the Greens. But I think it's the public backlash that's
18:19
Speaker 3: really hurting them here and they will have to back
18:21
Speaker 3: down on some of these issues.
18:22
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us, Pauline. I appreciate it.
18:25
Speaker 3: A birthday appearance by Pauline Hanson, but she ain't gone
18:28
Speaker 3: anywhere you heard her. Just now, let's go on to
18:31
Speaker 3: more of the budget news and economic news, because new
18:34
Speaker 3: figures out today show inflation is down by zero point
18:38
Speaker 3: four percent, thanks mainly to the fuel.
18:40
Speaker 1: Excise cut that was halved, of course.
18:42
Speaker 3: And that's coming to these figures. Here's the Treasurer today.
18:46
Speaker 16: What these results show is that the government's decisive action
18:50
Speaker 16: to slash the fuel excise is helping to take some
18:54
Speaker 16: of the sting out of price pressures from the conflict.
18:57
Speaker 16: Treasury analysis shows that our cut to the fuel excise
19:00
Speaker 16: reduced headline inflation by around half of a percentage point.
19:05
Speaker 3: Let's bring in Judo Bank Economic Advisor Warren Hogan, Warren,
19:08
Speaker 3: good to talk to you again. Of course, we're expecting
19:11
Speaker 3: that halving of the fuel excise to keep a bit
19:14
Speaker 3: of a lid on inflation this time around. But does
19:17
Speaker 3: that mean that it kicks up again when that excise
19:20
Speaker 3: goes back to it's a normal level, or is there
19:23
Speaker 3: something underlying here that shows that there is good news
19:26
Speaker 3: on the inflation front.
19:29
Speaker 17: Good even increase. I'm not sure that there's much good news.
19:32
Speaker 17: I mean, the fuel excise cut is temporary, and as
19:37
Speaker 17: soon as that comes back into play, it's going to
19:39
Speaker 17: add quite a bit to headline inflation. I think the
19:42
Speaker 17: treasurer there referred to half a percentage point, and that's
19:45
Speaker 17: why we should look through it and the RBA and
19:47
Speaker 17: economists do and look at the various underlying measures or
19:52
Speaker 17: the underlying trend, if you will. And while it's not
19:55
Speaker 17: as bad as I fear we're going to see over
19:58
Speaker 17: the month ahead, there is still this upward grind in
20:01
Speaker 17: inflation heading back up once again, and it has been
20:05
Speaker 17: for about a year now and we still haven't seen
20:08
Speaker 17: I think the worst of these second round effects from
20:12
Speaker 17: the energy shock, which will start hitting groceries and other
20:15
Speaker 17: everyday items. They already are it will start being measured
20:19
Speaker 17: in court in the abs start are probably in May.
20:22
Speaker 3: So at this stage you wouldn't be expecting an increase
20:25
Speaker 3: in interest rates next month, but you are expecting perhaps
20:31
Speaker 3: more interest rate rises before the end of the year.
20:35
Speaker 1: Yeah.
20:35
Speaker 17: Well, look, I mean the RBAS sort of said they're
20:37
Speaker 17: probably going to hold off in June in the minutes
20:40
Speaker 17: that they released last week, and of course the markets
20:43
Speaker 17: have jumped all over the higher unemployment rate that we
20:46
Speaker 17: got last week and now really rapidly pairing back expectations. Look,
20:51
Speaker 17: I think rates in Australia need to go up about
20:54
Speaker 17: at least half a percent, if not more, just to
20:57
Speaker 17: make sure that we're getting inflation stabilized. And so why wait,
21:02
Speaker 17: we sort of know that this level of interest rates
21:05
Speaker 17: didn't work two years ago. I'm not sure why they
21:07
Speaker 17: would think it was going to work. It's going to
21:09
Speaker 17: work now when we've got this global energy shock.
21:12
Speaker 1: So but the market.
21:13
Speaker 17: And I think the RBA are probably going to sit
21:15
Speaker 17: back and watch.
21:16
Speaker 18: For a while.
21:16
Speaker 17: But yeah, unless the economy falls off a cliff in
21:21
Speaker 17: the months ahead, the level of interest rates is not
21:24
Speaker 17: going to get inflation stabilized.
21:26
Speaker 1: We know that.
21:27
Speaker 3: I want to get your thoughts on some of these
21:28
Speaker 3: budget measures measures, particularly of course, the getting rid of
21:32
Speaker 3: the capital gains tax discount. Do you think that the
21:35
Speaker 3: government's going to have to claw back what they've announced
21:38
Speaker 3: and make sure that that discount still applies they only
21:42
Speaker 3: get rid of it perhaps in housing.
21:46
Speaker 17: Well, i'd like to see that. I mean, it's all
21:49
Speaker 17: a little convoluted, and you know this has all come
21:52
Speaker 17: out of the blue, really, I mean, these are changes
21:55
Speaker 17: to taxation arrangements which underpin financing decisions that have been
22:00
Speaker 17: driving Australia's long term financial planning for two generations. So
22:05
Speaker 17: the first question is why did we have these taxes
22:09
Speaker 17: or the discount in place, the negative gearing in place
22:11
Speaker 17: in the first place. And then okay, so why have
22:14
Speaker 17: you removed it? And an economists will tell you that
22:17
Speaker 17: reducing distortions by getting rid of these sorts of discounts
22:20
Speaker 17: and negative gearing and so forth is good for the
22:23
Speaker 17: efficiency of the economy. But we had these taxes there
22:26
Speaker 17: to promote housing supply and promote people investing in businesses.
22:30
Speaker 17: Do we want to sort of change that now. I mean,
22:33
Speaker 17: that's the question for me. So we have a major
22:36
Speaker 17: technological revolution rolling over us and will be for the
22:39
Speaker 17: next decade, and we need small disruptive companies to come
22:43
Speaker 17: in and take it to the big guys with new
22:45
Speaker 17: technology and new ways of thinking about things. So I
22:48
Speaker 17: think we need to give as much incentive to that
22:50
Speaker 17: as possible if we want a better economy, a more
22:53
Speaker 17: productive economy. So I think they hopefully will. It sounds
22:57
Speaker 17: like they will, but I just don't know.
22:59
Speaker 3: I mean, the incentives are there because we want investment.
23:03
Speaker 3: We want people to put their money into businesses and
23:06
Speaker 3: even to invest in housing as well. So this is
23:09
Speaker 3: just going to kill aspiration for so many people. It's
23:12
Speaker 3: so problematic. I want to get your thoughts too, just
23:15
Speaker 3: finally warrant on that this aim of labor they're saying
23:19
Speaker 3: that that keeps saying they want to equalize the tax
23:21
Speaker 3: treatment between the workers income and income from capital, income
23:26
Speaker 3: from investments. Why should they be treated the same?
23:31
Speaker 17: Yeah, I mean, I think that's part of the reason
23:33
Speaker 17: we had things like the discount in place, and why
23:35
Speaker 17: you do want to try and promote investment in business
23:40
Speaker 17: and in capital, because you know it's a different risk profile.
23:44
Speaker 17: You know, it's a lot easier to get a salary
23:47
Speaker 17: job or work in a unionized workforce and have some
23:52
Speaker 17: job security. And I think job security is valuable, but
23:56
Speaker 17: it's there because we have labor shortages out there, and
24:00
Speaker 17: of course the risk of actually investing in a company
24:04
Speaker 17: or building your own company that may not work or
24:06
Speaker 17: that's going to be a grind and take years to
24:09
Speaker 17: produce something. I mean it just you want to make
24:11
Speaker 17: sure there's that in sending for our youngbslutely energetic people.
24:15
Speaker 17: And I think that's why it's dangerous taking that away.
24:17
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just think it's a false aim.
24:19
Speaker 3: I think the whole aim of equalizing that tax treatment
24:21
Speaker 3: is wrong. It shows a kind of a I suppose
24:24
Speaker 3: for one of a better word, a socialist mindset.
24:27
Speaker 1: We better leave it there, Warren, thanks so much.
24:29
Speaker 3: For joining us, Warren Hogan, they're from a judo banker.
24:32
Speaker 3: We've got to get to a break on the other side.
24:34
Speaker 3: Former British Labor Prime Minister Tony Blair remember him well.
24:38
Speaker 1: He says it's time.
24:39
Speaker 3: To prioritize cheaper energy over net zero. Let's catch up
24:49
Speaker 3: here in the studio with Tom Switzer columnists with The Australian.
24:52
Speaker 1: Good to see you, Tom Chris, great to be with you.
24:54
Speaker 3: Look, Tony Blair has written a big essay in the UK,
24:58
Speaker 3: of course, the former very successful British labor prime minister.
25:03
Speaker 1: There's a lot in it. There's a lot that might help.
25:06
Speaker 3: Urge the party to try and lock in behind Kirstama
25:10
Speaker 3: not get into this sort.
25:11
Speaker 1: Of rotation of leaders. But what I thought was most
25:13
Speaker 1: fascinating was this.
25:14
Speaker 3: He says, we've got to prioritize cheaper energy and electrification
25:18
Speaker 3: over net zero and use what's left of our great
25:21
Speaker 3: North Sea oil and gas reserves.
25:23
Speaker 1: It's common sense. It's good to hear it coming from him, mate.
25:26
Speaker 6: Yeah, he was Prime minister from ninety seven to two
25:28
Speaker 6: thousand and seven and he was a cheerleader for decarbonizing
25:32
Speaker 6: the British economy.
25:33
Speaker 1: So he's been mugged by.
25:34
Speaker 6: Reality and he knows that there is no prospect of
25:37
Speaker 6: getting illegally binding, verifiable and a forcible global deal to
25:41
Speaker 6: reduce submissions. That's not going to happen. The global emissions
25:45
Speaker 6: are still going up and the non OECD are chugging
25:48
Speaker 6: along the smoky path to prosperity. Meanwhile, countries like Britain
25:52
Speaker 6: and Australia are hurting business confidence and damaging their economies
25:56
Speaker 6: by going down this route without the reliable backup with.
25:59
Speaker 3: An intervention like this, and it's not the first one
26:01
Speaker 3: in the UK. And the fact that the UK is
26:03
Speaker 3: prepared to spend over over dollars really on some major
26:08
Speaker 3: nuclear projects, it shows that they're getting a bit more
26:12
Speaker 3: realistic about energy and climate than Australia. Is Australia should
26:16
Speaker 3: be watching, listening and learning rather than hurtling down this pathway.
26:20
Speaker 1: I don't know.
26:20
Speaker 6: I think Chris Bowen and Ed Billiband, who's the Energy
26:23
Speaker 6: Minister in the British government, he's a former Labour leader.
26:26
Speaker 6: I think they're two peas in a pod. I think
26:28
Speaker 6: they're both committed to blindly leading both countries down this
26:32
Speaker 6: net zero track. But I think what's different here is
26:35
Speaker 6: that Tony Blair's I mean Tony Blair won three elections.
26:38
Speaker 6: What if you think about Tony Blair's policies as Prime
26:41
Speaker 6: Ministy he won three elections, he's a giant of British politics.
26:44
Speaker 6: And the fact that he's come out swinging against Kirs Darmer,
26:47
Speaker 6: particularly on this issue, I think says a lot. You're
26:49
Speaker 6: not going to hear Kevin Right or Paul Keating or
26:51
Speaker 6: Julia Gillard criticizing Anthony Albinezi.
26:54
Speaker 3: But in the UK, do you think it will have
26:56
Speaker 3: an impact on policy?
26:57
Speaker 14: No?
26:58
Speaker 1: You think they'll continue with the zero.
27:00
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, look, in a few years time there
27:02
Speaker 6: is bound to be a change in leadership and Nigel
27:04
Speaker 6: Farage the Reform Party leader, who at this stage is
27:07
Speaker 6: favorite to be the Prime Minister, or Kemmy Badenock, the
27:10
Speaker 6: Tory leader, they are both dead set against net zero policies.
27:13
Speaker 6: So the changes in the wind.
27:15
Speaker 3: Let's bring it back to Australia and Ken to get
27:17
Speaker 3: your thoughts on the You're just out of the ABC yourself.
27:20
Speaker 1: What's six months ago? Maybe year and a half ago? Y? Yeah,
27:22
Speaker 1: you were, and I enjoyed my time there by.
27:24
Speaker 3: The way, I enjoyed listening to you, so I guess loved.
27:28
Speaker 1: It when you came on defending the voice.
27:30
Speaker 3: Yea, the only ABC host I used to listen to
27:33
Speaker 3: a thinking And I don't think he's voting green.
27:36
Speaker 1: I know a lot of whose Tim's voting for, but.
27:38
Speaker 3: Justin Stevens, he's at a rocky road as the head
27:41
Speaker 3: of News and Current Affairs he's resigning, does that suggest
27:44
Speaker 3: that they've realized he's not up to the job.
27:46
Speaker 6: Look, I always enjoyed my time with jet Justin because
27:49
Speaker 6: he always got back to my complaints and my criticisms,
27:51
Speaker 6: and I always thought he was very decent. But look,
27:54
Speaker 6: I think fundamentally the problem with the ABC is that
27:57
Speaker 6: they're losing the digital battle to Sky News. I mean
27:59
Speaker 6: on you Tube, sky News smashes the public broadcaster and
28:03
Speaker 6: the ABC has a much bigger budget than Sky News.
28:06
Speaker 6: But also I think the problem here is group think.
28:08
Speaker 6: I think the broad cross section of journalists, particularly working
28:12
Speaker 6: out of News and Current Affairs in Sydney, Melbourne and
28:15
Speaker 6: Canberra more or less think alike.
28:17
Speaker 3: Well, I've never met Justin Stevens, but instead of responding
28:20
Speaker 3: to my considered criticisms with evidence and examples, he's just
28:26
Speaker 3: gotten into abuse and writing to my bosses to try
28:29
Speaker 3: to have me.
28:29
Speaker 1: Silenced or sacked. So from that experience, I.
28:32
Speaker 3: Don't have a very high opinion of him. But look
28:35
Speaker 3: at Kim Williams was interesting. I showed this this comment before,
28:39
Speaker 3: let's look at it again. It is astounding from the
28:41
Speaker 3: ABC chair.
28:43
Speaker 13: The ABC is not an especially left wing or right
28:48
Speaker 13: wing organization, and in fact the majority of ABC journalists.
28:52
Speaker 13: I would defy anyone to know how they vote. No,
28:55
Speaker 13: I reckon I can guess, well, you know, you guess
28:59
Speaker 13: you might.
29:01
Speaker 1: What was he smoking with those blokes down in Tasmania.
29:03
Speaker 6: I think, in fairness, if you go to regional New
29:05
Speaker 6: South Wales, even regional Victoria, certainly regional Queensland, it'd probably
29:10
Speaker 6: be hard to pick how many of the journalists vote.
29:13
Speaker 6: But certainly in Melbourne, Sydney and Canberra they either vote
29:17
Speaker 6: green or labor, no question about it. And I have
29:20
Speaker 6: to say I enjoyed my time there. I found that
29:22
Speaker 6: the producers I work with were generally pretty professional. I
29:25
Speaker 6: had good relations with them, but they are.
29:28
Speaker 3: Locked into the group think. Yeah, an ideological group thing,
29:30
Speaker 3: and it is true. I agree with you, and I
29:32
Speaker 3: think all of our viewers would know that when you
29:34
Speaker 3: get out to regional radio around the country.
29:36
Speaker 1: ABC is much more mainstream in the regions, but.
29:39
Speaker 3: All the power, most of the program comes from that Sydney,
29:42
Speaker 3: Melbourne Camebra axis. It is green left and decidedly so.
29:47
Speaker 3: This is a major problem for the ABC because that's
29:50
Speaker 3: in breach of its charter.
29:51
Speaker 1: Every minute it's like that.
29:53
Speaker 3: And yet you have a chair here and not long
29:55
Speaker 3: in the job, a chair completely in denial about and.
29:59
Speaker 6: The selective cre This is quite breathtaking. More often than not,
30:03
Speaker 6: ABC journalists will be a lot harder on Coalition politicians
30:07
Speaker 6: and certainly One Nation politicians than they would be about
30:10
Speaker 6: Greens and the Labor Party. And I think that's where
30:12
Speaker 6: they let the game. You know the game's up when
30:15
Speaker 6: you hear him say that.
30:15
Speaker 1: Doesn't that show us that the chair is in denial.
30:18
Speaker 6: Well, look, he's probably got to say that because the
30:20
Speaker 6: ABC gets public money and the legislative quid pro quote
30:24
Speaker 6: for public money is a commitment to fairness and balance.
30:26
Speaker 1: So he's got a lie.
30:27
Speaker 6: But is either lying or isn't serious denial?
30:29
Speaker 3: Yes, indeed, thanks for joining us, Tom, We'll catch you
30:32
Speaker 3: next week. Tom Switz that you can read his stuff
30:34
Speaker 3: in The Australian. Coming up after the break, we're going
30:37
Speaker 3: to check in on Greta Tumberg. She's taken up a
30:39
Speaker 3: new cause. She's always after the latest left wing cause.
30:48
Speaker 3: Let's get back to that bizarre exchange in the Senate
30:51
Speaker 3: estimates yesterday about possible workplace discrimination over pregnancy. This is
30:57
Speaker 3: for biological men is more of the Sex Discrimination Commissioner
31:02
Speaker 3: being grilled by Senator michaelia Cash.
31:05
Speaker 11: A man who is seeking a position, then it's not
31:10
Speaker 11: going to apply to a man.
31:12
Speaker 10: They're both biological men. It makes no sense a biological man.
31:19
Speaker 10: You state of a biological man can't get pregnant? Am
31:22
Speaker 10: I correct? Because if I'm not, I've got to go
31:25
Speaker 10: back to school. I seriously do, because I missed that
31:27
Speaker 10: lesson in biology.
31:28
Speaker 14: I went to a convent school.
31:29
Speaker 10: The nuns may not have told me about it. But
31:32
Speaker 10: you said a biological man can't get pregnant.
31:35
Speaker 11: That's correct, Senator. But someone who is a transwoman may
31:39
Speaker 11: be assumed to be pregnant or to be able to
31:44
Speaker 11: be pregnant.
31:46
Speaker 3: Let's bring in Rachel Wong, the CEO of Women's Forum Australia.
31:50
Speaker 1: Good to talk to you again, Rachel.
31:51
Speaker 3: What's your take of this bizarre discussion last night?
31:57
Speaker 2: Well, chrasit's an absolute clown show. It's likely living a
32:00
Speaker 2: Monty Python's sketch, except we can't turn it off and
32:02
Speaker 2: instead we're stuck in this absolute taxpayer funded liver of insanity.
32:08
Speaker 2: I mean saying that men who claim to you women
32:10
Speaker 2: can be potentially pregnant, just an absolute face. And taxpayers
32:15
Speaker 2: are paying four hundred thousand dollars a year for doctor
32:19
Speaker 2: and Cody's salary this excrimination commissioner. And that's to say
32:22
Speaker 2: nothing of the cost of the lawyers that the Australi
32:24
Speaker 2: Human Rights Commissioners using to argue that men can be women,
32:27
Speaker 2: to argue the men who claim to you women can
32:29
Speaker 2: be potentially pregnant and deserve pregnancy protections under se excrimination
32:32
Speaker 2: law in cases like Gigl and Tickle. It's just absolutely ludicrous.
32:37
Speaker 1: It is bizarre.
32:38
Speaker 3: Who I showed some of Monty Python's life of Brian
32:40
Speaker 3: at the top of the program.
32:41
Speaker 1: That was almost fifty years ago.
32:43
Speaker 3: It was it was brilliant satire to have someone saying
32:47
Speaker 3: that as his right as a man to be a
32:49
Speaker 3: woman if you want to, and he has a right
32:51
Speaker 3: to believe that he can have a baby. And yet
32:53
Speaker 3: here we are with serious people paid serious money by taxpayers,
32:57
Speaker 3: as you say, actually torturing their to get through this thing.
33:01
Speaker 3: Well just so they sound woke enough that they can actually.
33:04
Speaker 1: Be outraged about the possible.
33:06
Speaker 3: Discrimination about events that cannot possibly occur.
33:10
Speaker 2: Look, it is just absolutely insane. And look when it's fiction,
33:13
Speaker 2: it's funny, but when it's real life, it's not.
33:16
Speaker 14: And I think that.
33:17
Speaker 2: The Albanese government in particular should be deeply humiliated by this,
33:20
Speaker 2: because they appoint to doctor anacodyas Exscrimination Commissioner back in
33:24
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three. I mean, do they still stand by
33:27
Speaker 2: her appointment? Do they think this is a good use
33:29
Speaker 2: of taxpayers money? The mockery of women and the undermining
33:33
Speaker 2: of their sex base rights and protections by the very
33:36
Speaker 2: woman who is meant to be protecting them. I think
33:39
Speaker 2: we deserve answers from them. And you know, they are
33:41
Speaker 2: the ones who appointed her, they're the ones who can
33:43
Speaker 2: also terminate her as well.
33:45
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think there's the high farce here.
33:47
Speaker 3: There's the waste of time and the intellectual insult, if
33:51
Speaker 3: you like, of all this, and then there's the waste
33:53
Speaker 3: of money. All this is happening, All this sort of
33:55
Speaker 3: carry on goes on at taxpayers expense, and we all
33:58
Speaker 3: ought to be outraged about that waste of our money.
34:01
Speaker 3: But I think I think perhaps the most powerful point
34:03
Speaker 3: about this is that it's so demeaning to women. You know,
34:09
Speaker 3: if there's anything important about being a woman, it is
34:12
Speaker 3: those the capability of being pregnant and having a baby.
34:18
Speaker 3: It's it is the feminine trade above all others, and
34:22
Speaker 3: yet it can be sort of traded away as a
34:26
Speaker 3: debating point in defiance of biology in order to what
34:32
Speaker 3: in order to be politically correct or I don't understand it.
34:35
Speaker 3: Tell me about it from a woman's point of view.
34:39
Speaker 2: Oh look, Chris, I don't think anyone can make sense
34:41
Speaker 2: of it. It's absolutely crazy and it is insulting. It
34:44
Speaker 2: is offensive because these protections that are in our law,
34:47
Speaker 2: which are meant to protect women and girls on the
34:49
Speaker 2: basis of biological sex, because they are unique and they can,
34:52
Speaker 2: for example, get pregnant, I being stripped away in favor
34:55
Speaker 2: of this ideology that says, meaning to be women that
34:58
Speaker 2: human means can change sex. Other cases going on in
35:01
Speaker 2: Australia at the moment which are closely related to this
35:03
Speaker 2: ridiculous idea saying that men can breastfeed jas and Sussex
35:07
Speaker 2: is another woman like Zargrover going through the court system
35:10
Speaker 2: at the moment because she has said that men who
35:13
Speaker 2: claim to you women cannot breastfeed and she's been punished
35:16
Speaker 2: for that. It's just insane.
35:18
Speaker 1: There is madness afoot.
35:20
Speaker 3: Indeed, Rachel, thanks for joining us. Appreciate you railing against it.
35:24
Speaker 3: Rachel Wong there from Women's Forum Australian. Now let's check
35:29
Speaker 3: in on climate warrior Greta Tumberg.
35:32
Speaker 1: She's found a new cause.
35:34
Speaker 3: Railing against Sweden's tightened migration and deportation policies.
35:40
Speaker 18: The image people have Sweden as a progressive country guided
35:43
Speaker 18: by solidarity and humanitarian values is long outdated. In Sweden,
35:48
Speaker 18: people who came here as children, grew up here and
35:51
Speaker 18: built their entire lives here are now increasingly being deported
35:55
Speaker 18: without their families to countries they have no connection to
35:58
Speaker 18: and that are very much not say for them to
36:00
Speaker 18: be in. And this is in light of Sweden becoming
36:03
Speaker 18: increasingly hostile and racist in its migration politics like so
36:07
Speaker 18: so many other parts of the world.
36:10
Speaker 3: Wow, she could get a job as an ABC jet
36:13
Speaker 3: I reckon, let's go to the UK and catch up
36:16
Speaker 3: with writer and broadcaster.
36:17
Speaker 1: Is the krakh in London?
36:19
Speaker 17: Es?
36:19
Speaker 3: This is she must have solved the climate problems, because
36:24
Speaker 3: Greta's onto She's under liberating Gaza and now liberating all
36:28
Speaker 3: the migrants in Sweden as well.
36:32
Speaker 19: Yes, Unfortunately, Sweden's immigration policy has joined Gretaitumberg's and had
36:36
Speaker 19: left wing omnicors, and she's now having a go at
36:40
Speaker 19: Sweden's conservative government for actually implementing some sensible immigration controls.
36:45
Speaker 19: This is this is against the backdrop. Can I just
36:47
Speaker 19: say of Sweden experiencing two hundred bombings last year and
36:51
Speaker 19: the bombings are as a result of sort of urban
36:55
Speaker 19: gang violence that are mainly being led by these insular
36:59
Speaker 19: communities that mainly immigrant communities that have not integrated with
37:03
Speaker 19: the wider Swedish community. And now you have neighborhoods like
37:06
Speaker 19: Marmo and Stockholm literally having random bombings. And the most
37:10
Speaker 19: disturbing part of this is that most of them are
37:12
Speaker 19: being carried out by children, because gangs realize that Sweden's
37:15
Speaker 19: lacks criminal system means that even if they go to prison,
37:18
Speaker 19: it's usually for a year or two, it's very not
37:21
Speaker 19: stringent at all, and they can end up just recruiting
37:23
Speaker 19: the same young young children to garry out their violence.
37:26
Speaker 19: So it's interesting how she's cherry picking these sort of
37:29
Speaker 19: policies that she doesn't agree with, and it is refusing
37:31
Speaker 19: to bring about show the wider context of what's actually
37:34
Speaker 19: being brought about by Sweden's immigration policy that has now
37:37
Speaker 19: led to twenty percent of Sweden's population being foreign born,
37:41
Speaker 19: which is a significant proportion for a country that's known
37:45
Speaker 19: for being quite ethnically and racially homogeneous, and has developed
37:47
Speaker 19: a culture based off of that homogeneity, quite an inward
37:51
Speaker 19: looking culture that is hard for people, particularly non Western
37:55
Speaker 19: people to integrate into. So again, this is someone who
37:58
Speaker 19: unfortunately would have been Cque ten years ago, but our
38:02
Speaker 19: adulthood has happened, so the base of a mature voice
38:05
Speaker 19: doesn't sound as appealing as a young sixteen year old
38:08
Speaker 19: winging on a un stage.
38:10
Speaker 13: Unfortunately.
38:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, indeed, let's go back down memory line and have
38:14
Speaker 3: a look at some of those comments that brought credit
38:17
Speaker 3: to worldwide fame.
38:20
Speaker 20: People are suffering, people are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing.
38:28
Speaker 20: We are in the beginning of a mass extinction, and
38:31
Speaker 20: all you can talk about is the money and fairy
38:34
Speaker 20: tales of eternal economic growth.
38:38
Speaker 21: How dare you?
38:40
Speaker 1: How dare you? Now?
38:41
Speaker 3: As I said, maybe she thinks the climate problems have
38:43
Speaker 3: been solved, because I think we've got pictures here.
38:46
Speaker 1: She was on that flotilla to Gaza.
38:48
Speaker 3: She was part of the anti Israel mob and campaigning
38:52
Speaker 3: for more aide to get into Gaza. I mean, she's
38:55
Speaker 3: just going for the whole suite of left wing causes here,
38:58
Speaker 3: which sort of puts the lie to her whole climate campaign,
39:02
Speaker 3: which seems to have gone on the back burner. Buttt
39:06
Speaker 3: I'm wondering, given the hot temperatures in the UK at
39:09
Speaker 3: the moment, whether esther they're are rising concerns.
39:13
Speaker 1: About climate change? Now? Is this being blamed on global warming.
39:18
Speaker 19: Naturally?
39:18
Speaker 1: I mean, I kid you not.
39:19
Speaker 19: I actually watched the program. I'm not going to mention
39:22
Speaker 19: the channel just because I don't want to full follow
39:25
Speaker 19: any media laws. But my jew literally dropped because one
39:27
Speaker 19: of the questions they asked the correspondent was, oh, we're
39:30
Speaker 19: seeing really hot weather in May, surprisingly summer.
39:33
Speaker 14: Some has brought us hot weather.
39:35
Speaker 19: Is this normal or does this have to do with
39:37
Speaker 19: the changing climate? And this was like a primetime show,
39:41
Speaker 19: and I just thought, how unserious can you be that
39:45
Speaker 19: the idea of warm weather in May in the United Kingdom,
39:49
Speaker 19: known for its horrible, gray, rainy weather basically year round,
39:53
Speaker 19: is something a cause of concern. And then the correspondent said, yes,
39:57
Speaker 19: this is the highest or has much highest record temperature
40:01
Speaker 19: on record, which means when records actually began, so it
40:05
Speaker 19: has been hot cyclically like we expect from the weather
40:08
Speaker 19: and the climate, which we are told continuously from climate
40:11
Speaker 19: activists that climate is cyclical. So what exactly are we
40:13
Speaker 19: supposed to do with this information? I mean, the biggest
40:15
Speaker 19: traversity is that basically know when the United Kingdom has
40:18
Speaker 19: air conditioning, and it has nothing to do with the
40:20
Speaker 19: fact that we don't have air conditioning technology. It's the
40:22
Speaker 19: fact to do that.
40:22
Speaker 1: We have the.
40:23
Speaker 19: Highest industrialized energy policy prices in the entire developed world,
40:27
Speaker 19: and so we can't afford air conditioning or basically normal
40:31
Speaker 19: sensible electricity prices.
40:32
Speaker 1: That's the real scandal here.
40:34
Speaker 3: It's only the heat that the maximum temperatures, when they
40:38
Speaker 3: break records, they all get excited and say is climate change?
40:43
Speaker 3: When the minimums break records, they just ignore that and
40:45
Speaker 3: as weather as usual. It's all a bit of a circus.
40:48
Speaker 3: Thanks for joining us there, so I appreciate this correctly
40:51
Speaker 3: there from the UK. We've got to get to a
40:53
Speaker 3: break on the other side. The Wednesday wrangle with Danika
40:56
Speaker 3: and Justin don't go away. Let's wrangle with Denika and
41:04
Speaker 3: justin we're fired up and ready to go, justin, what
41:08
Speaker 3: do you think of another cohort of Isis brides Islamic
41:12
Speaker 3: State adults coming back into this country and not even
41:16
Speaker 3: facing arrest.
41:19
Speaker 14: Well, I haven't faced the rest yet.
41:22
Speaker 9: And as I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, I
41:23
Speaker 9: think the really important point here is that if they
41:27
Speaker 9: don't get arrested, we've got to be told why they
41:31
Speaker 9: haven't been arrested, as in, who's checked them out? What
41:34
Speaker 9: have we checked them out for? What have we looked at?
41:36
Speaker 9: What was the outcome? The whole bit. We've got to
41:39
Speaker 9: know that because there's been far too much publicity now
41:42
Speaker 9: about it. There's been far too much talking, far too
41:44
Speaker 9: many things have happened. So if that hasn't been an arrest,
41:47
Speaker 9: we can't just have dead silence like we can get
41:50
Speaker 9: sometimes from these agencies.
41:52
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, they're telling us far too little about this.
41:54
Speaker 3: Before I come to you, Denica, I just want to
41:56
Speaker 3: show this bit of Biffo where one of the supporters
41:59
Speaker 3: or relative or the like took out a cameraman.
42:06
Speaker 13: That's a sault, Amen, amen, amen, leave my own man
42:14
Speaker 13: thrown up right, that's assault?
42:16
Speaker 3: Do not Yeah, a bit of Argie Barjie there at
42:22
Speaker 3: the airport, and there was some pretty intimidating scenes last
42:25
Speaker 3: time around Denika. But what really interested me was the
42:29
Speaker 3: special treatment. Meet it out to these women in Sydney
42:33
Speaker 3: that you and I come back through.
42:35
Speaker 1: The air Force bitport.
42:36
Speaker 12: Anybody else you just go through, right, but a special
42:40
Speaker 12: opportunity to go through some sort of check in facility
42:43
Speaker 12: essentially a way to get out of the airport without
42:46
Speaker 12: being seen by the media and others. It's a it's
42:48
Speaker 12: an astonishing special treatment to give them and a really
42:52
Speaker 12: sharp contrar trust.
42:53
Speaker 3: To waigh to the way at the same airport. Ben
42:56
Speaker 3: Roberts Smith was created before the media.
42:58
Speaker 22: Absolutely so they had the speA treatment in government vehicles
43:01
Speaker 22: in Sydney and then in Melbourne they were able to
43:03
Speaker 22: go through a side exit to get out of there.
43:06
Speaker 22: And you're right, I mean the Prime Minister may as
43:09
Speaker 22: well have been there with a welcome back sign given
43:12
Speaker 22: the way that Ben Roberts Smith was paraded out of
43:15
Speaker 22: that airplane right in front of welcome media, waiting media,
43:20
Speaker 22: all for the media to see. And then when the
43:22
Speaker 22: media are actually here covering this story of the Isis Brides,
43:26
Speaker 22: given that this is a big national story. They're treated
43:29
Speaker 22: absolutely poorly. Did you hear one of the comments from
43:32
Speaker 22: one of the supporters saying they've been through enough.
43:34
Speaker 1: Listen, I don't care.
43:35
Speaker 22: I couldn't care less in the end. I care about
43:38
Speaker 22: this country and I care about our values. And for once,
43:43
Speaker 22: justin I actually do agree with you. We do need
43:45
Speaker 22: to know if these women are not going to be arrested,
43:47
Speaker 22: why they are not going to be arrested, you know,
43:50
Speaker 22: and I do agree on that point.
43:53
Speaker 9: I think it only makes it only makes common sense
43:56
Speaker 9: that because there has been so much, so much coverage,
44:00
Speaker 9: and look, and again I hate to agree with you
44:04
Speaker 9: as well, they shouldn't have been given a special way
44:07
Speaker 9: through the airport if that is indeed what's happened, because
44:11
Speaker 9: I despise any kind of secrecy. The media should should
44:15
Speaker 9: be allowed to be there, they should be allowed to
44:18
Speaker 9: cover it. I will say this for the Isis brides,
44:21
Speaker 9: they might need to get themselves a new pr man
44:24
Speaker 9: because the one they've got at the moment is just
44:26
Speaker 9: not working.
44:28
Speaker 1: Well.
44:28
Speaker 3: Here's the thing, right that they come back into this country,
44:31
Speaker 3: they're allowed back into this country, and yet they and
44:34
Speaker 3: we know they haven't been interrogated by police exactly, Yet
44:38
Speaker 3: the government conspires to prevent them actually facing some questions.
44:42
Speaker 1: From the media exactly.
44:43
Speaker 3: I would have liked to have seen them respond to
44:46
Speaker 3: questions about what they've been doing and why they think
44:48
Speaker 3: they deserve to come back.
44:49
Speaker 22: Well, do you remember when the airport scenes a couple
44:52
Speaker 22: of weeks ago, when a journalist did ask one of them,
44:54
Speaker 22: why did you marry an isis fighter? A faired income question,
44:57
Speaker 22: and the response from one of their security guards he
45:00
Speaker 22: called this journalist, a female journalist.
45:02
Speaker 14: A Slutchana.
45:03
Speaker 22: That is, and that is that should worry all of us, Chris,
45:07
Speaker 22: because that just goes to show how some people view
45:11
Speaker 22: women of the West unbelievable.
45:13
Speaker 3: Let's lighten it up a bit and talk about Labour's budget.
45:16
Speaker 3: Yeah it is a bit of a joke, but I'll
45:17
Speaker 3: tell you what. There are serious issues to discuss with
45:20
Speaker 3: this budget and the government's going to have serious problems
45:23
Speaker 3: implementing it. Yet look at the way its own MP's
45:26
Speaker 3: try and sell the stuff.
45:28
Speaker 23: Sometimes it's really hard to predict what the Liberal Party
45:32
Speaker 23: is going to do next, because let's face it, they're
45:34
Speaker 23: a bit all over the place. So I've got a
45:36
Speaker 23: new method to predict what the Liberal Party is going
45:39
Speaker 23: to do the magic case.
45:41
Speaker 24: Let's ask you some questions. Will the Liberal Party continue
45:45
Speaker 24: to steal one nation's policies? You may rely on it
45:53
Speaker 24: knows what's talking about this thing? If you have any
45:55
Speaker 24: burning questions, you want to ask the eight ball to
45:57
Speaker 24: stop women in the comments.
46:00
Speaker 1: She's a Labor senator.
46:02
Speaker 3: We taxpayers, you know, put pay her a package of
46:05
Speaker 3: about three hundred thousand dollars a year to pump it gibberish.
46:11
Speaker 14: Oh come on mate, it's it's like travel roots. They're
46:14
Speaker 14: all doing it. Though.
46:15
Speaker 9: It's not just the one party here. We've had Tim
46:19
Speaker 9: Wilson singing songs in Parliament that was pretty silly. We've
46:22
Speaker 9: had one nation making cartoons mocking people so and the
46:27
Speaker 9: Labor Party.
46:28
Speaker 14: Isn't on the game.
46:29
Speaker 1: They all do it.
46:30
Speaker 9: I don't actually want to see what sort of ditch
46:32
Speaker 9: it because none of them are particularly good at it.
46:34
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. One nation raised their own money
46:36
Speaker 1: for those brilliant cartoons.
46:38
Speaker 3: And Tim Wilson was just standing up in Parliament when
46:41
Speaker 3: he sung his ridiculous song. Here's another one from Labor today.
46:46
Speaker 21: Ailey, Wow, oh my god, there we go go, New
46:56
Speaker 21: South Wales go the Blues anyway.
46:58
Speaker 1: But the Labors sess with this stuff right just you.
47:01
Speaker 22: Know, at the time that they spend on their acting skills,
47:03
Speaker 22: they could actually be making a difference to people's lives.
47:06
Speaker 22: And when Labor talks about one Nation, they're actually doing
47:09
Speaker 22: one Nation a big favor. Because you remember that poll
47:11
Speaker 22: that came out of the weekend that said if an
47:13
Speaker 22: election were to be held today, Labor would actually lose
47:16
Speaker 22: seats as with the Liberal Party and One Nation would
47:18
Speaker 22: become the formal opposition party. So they are worried I think.
47:23
Speaker 9: About one shop.
47:25
Speaker 22: No, they are worried about one Nation.
47:27
Speaker 14: This was a Liberal Party one You've obviously got a perable.
47:30
Speaker 22: One nation justin But believe it or not, a lot
47:32
Speaker 22: of Australians actually do support One Nation because they support
47:35
Speaker 22: Pauline Hanson and her family.
47:37
Speaker 14: A problem with the Labor Party as well. I haven't
47:39
Speaker 14: got a time.
47:42
Speaker 1: I want to stop.
47:43
Speaker 3: I want to stop you both talking because I want
47:45
Speaker 3: to show you something interesting.
47:46
Speaker 1: I wanted to show you the Health Secretary of.
47:48
Speaker 3: The United States RFK Junior. Look what you got up
47:52
Speaker 3: to the other day?
47:57
Speaker 16: What are they?
48:01
Speaker 19: Okay?
48:07
Speaker 18: Okay?
48:13
Speaker 3: Talking about your Wednesday wrangle. He was just wrangling a
48:15
Speaker 3: couple of snakes. If you'll excited about that. In the US,
48:19
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have a look at this.
48:20
Speaker 1: Do you call that a snake? That wasn't a snake?
48:22
Speaker 3: Look at Steve Irwin, he show you get a decent snake.
48:26
Speaker 22: Well, actually the clip that in the earlier part of
48:29
Speaker 22: that clip with RFK, you actually see.
48:30
Speaker 1: Him going into the corner.
48:31
Speaker 22: He was actually at doctor Oz's house at the time.
48:34
Speaker 14: And the way he just picks up the snakes.
48:36
Speaker 1: He's such a cool guy that this cool appeal to him.
48:39
Speaker 22: I think RFK is awesome.
48:41
Speaker 3: Maybe he's vaccinated against snake bite.
48:44
Speaker 14: That's what from there? Secretary for living longer and help,
48:47
Speaker 14: doesn't it exactly?
48:48
Speaker 3: You should be making TikTok videos instead. Thanks to joining us,
48:52
Speaker 3: justin and dediculously. I won't see you next week, but
48:55
Speaker 3: actually I'm going to be away for a couple of weeks.
48:56
Speaker 1: I'll be okay.
48:57
Speaker 3: You're in good hands, Steve Price. And then special special
49:01
Speaker 3: surprise the following week.
49:03
Speaker 1: Is Peter Creedlin.
49:04
Speaker 23: M hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
