- 0:11Speaker 1: It's the good report.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Tonight, a top American general says, Donald Trump does now
- 0:18Speaker 2: see through Vladimir Putin, so watch out. How does he know?
- 0:22Speaker 2: Just talk to the US President. Don't miss this critical
- 0:26Speaker 2: insight and so much more tonight, Barnaby Joyce, Patrick Chrissis Wilkinson,
- 0:30Speaker 2: Christy McSweeney, and will introduce you to the neo Nazi
- 0:34Speaker 2: being sent to a woman's prison, because he now says,
- 0:37Speaker 2: here's a woman. But first, when I first started pointing
- 0:44Speaker 2: out that some very prominent Aborigines seemed and said to
- 0:47Speaker 2: be white, it was like, oh my god, you know,
- 0:49Speaker 2: I was a disgrace. I was a racist. I had
- 0:51Speaker 2: to be shut up. It was weird. I mean, I've
- 0:54Speaker 2: never understood why saying some white people, from what I
- 0:58Speaker 2: could tell, weren't really is supposedly racist, especially when they
- 1:03Speaker 2: are sometimes taking jobs or benefits or prizes which are
- 1:07Speaker 2: meant to be for real Aborigines who need it. But
- 1:11Speaker 2: I do now understand why even today our top cultural
- 1:15Speaker 2: institutions refuse to call out the fakes. Now, one answer
- 1:21Speaker 2: is because there are so many of them. And tonight
- 1:25Speaker 2: there's been two more developments, starting with evidence of exactly
- 1:28Speaker 2: what I just said about not calling it out. I'm
- 1:31Speaker 2: going to show you again just some of the academics
- 1:34Speaker 2: in our universities who say they are Aborigines, some even
- 1:37Speaker 2: hold jobs meant for Aborigines, when in fact the available
- 1:40Speaker 2: evidence is that they are not. I'm talking about evidence
- 1:44Speaker 2: from professional genealogy experts from the website darkemu exposed dot org,
- 1:49Speaker 2: plus evidence that I've found over the years. Now, sure
- 1:53Speaker 2: we might have made a mistake, but none of these
- 1:56Speaker 2: people have responded to our requests and challenges to show
- 1:59Speaker 2: that they they are indeed Aboriginal. Now I'm on these
- 2:04Speaker 2: average abiging these academics. So I'll show you is one
- 2:08Speaker 2: whose university, Sydney University, since said she is now leaving it.
- 2:13Speaker 2: And I said to the guy, I said, oh, yeah,
- 2:15Speaker 2: I'm Aboriginal. That's that's what my mom and my nn
- 2:18Speaker 2: have told us. And he told me, well, no, you
- 2:21Speaker 2: can't tick that box, he says, because you're not.
- 2:23Speaker 1: You know, you're too wi.
- 2:24Speaker 3: This Aboriginal in the denial of what to be recognized
- 2:29Speaker 3: on our own brand.
- 2:30Speaker 4: The real world is not a safe place for Indigenous people.
- 2:34Speaker 5: Aboriginal Australians not only invented bread, they also invented society.
- 2:41Speaker 4: But I want to welcome you by singing a song
- 2:45Speaker 4: that Peme Alway wrote next slide, so that you can
- 2:48Speaker 4: sing this song of welcome wherever you go. I'm just
- 2:51Speaker 4: gonna put up my classtics.
- 2:55Speaker 1: Blah ba mom, I'm going to wear and gorner.
- 2:58Speaker 2: I'm from the demagog and the guy.
- 3:00Speaker 6: As I've said, the Gamarigo are the people from this
- 3:03Speaker 6: country and this is our traditional land. I'm Narragu.
- 3:08Speaker 7: I'm from the snowy Mountains in southeastern Australia.
- 3:10Speaker 2: That's my mob. And like I said, one of the
- 3:14Speaker 2: people there has since left her position, this one Lisa
- 3:19Speaker 2: Jackson Pulver. But when a university said she was moving on,
- 3:22Speaker 2: there wasn't a word in the public statement that I've
- 3:23Speaker 2: seen about why. Whether she was leaving as Deputy Vice
- 3:27Speaker 2: Chancellor of Indigenous Strategy and Services because she wasn't actually
- 3:32Speaker 2: Indigenous herself, or whether she just had enough or was
- 3:36Speaker 2: focusing on other projects or whatever ill health. I don't know,
- 3:41Speaker 2: but there was something odd. Professor Jackson Paulvine used to
- 3:44Speaker 2: claim still does. It seems that she is the first
- 3:47Speaker 2: known Aboriginal person to receive a PhD in medicine at
- 3:50Speaker 2: the University of Sydney, but now her successor, Reubened Bolts
- 3:54Speaker 2: and no relation real Aboriginal. He has on his website
- 3:58Speaker 2: profile claim that he is the first Aboriginal person to
- 4:02Speaker 2: earn a PhD from the University of Sydney's Faculty of
- 4:05Speaker 2: Medicine and Health. Now, of course, you know, some might
- 4:09Speaker 2: say that it's not a direct contradiction. Paula Jackson's PhD
- 4:12Speaker 2: was in medicine on cultural safety in health service delivery.
- 4:16Speaker 2: Boltz was in stead in microsociology. But you know, both
- 4:21Speaker 2: posts maybe could be true that it does seem on to me.
- 4:25Speaker 2: But two second development, most Aborigines are now asking the
- 4:30Speaker 2: same questions about people they claim are not Aborigines, the
- 4:34Speaker 2: questions that I was been asking for years. And the
- 4:38Speaker 2: latest example, and this is a scoop, has been a
- 4:41Speaker 2: scoop uncovered by our Caroline Marcus, who's going to tell
- 4:44Speaker 2: the whole story on Sky News tomorrow, so to tune in.
- 4:48Speaker 2: Caroline has let me tell some of it tonight that
- 4:51Speaker 2: Melinda Rutter, the TV stuff from the nineteen eighties, has
- 4:55Speaker 2: been challenged about her claimed aboriginality in a case before
- 4:59Speaker 2: the Commission now Ronnie used to be on Simon Townsend's
- 5:04Speaker 2: Wonder World.
- 5:05Speaker 3: What I've done is written down the Wonderworld theme song,
- 5:09Speaker 3: and I'm going to see if they complain it in jazz.
- 5:12Speaker 2: Ratta now runs an Aboriginal film and advertising companies specializing
- 5:15Speaker 2: in Aboriginal themes, working with other people who've been called
- 5:19Speaker 2: Aboriginal two like Ray Martin, the well known presenter. By
- 5:23Speaker 2: the way, just one of Martin's sixteen great great grandparents
- 5:27Speaker 2: was Aboriginal, but that was enough for him to appear
- 5:30Speaker 2: in a supposedly all Aboriginal panel on Channel seven to
- 5:33Speaker 2: discuss the voice. But to stick with Melinda Rutter. She
- 5:38Speaker 2: now sits on the New South Wales Government's Aboriginal Business
- 5:42Speaker 2: Task Force, but now senior members of a New South
- 5:45Speaker 2: Wales indigenous community say she shouldn't. They have signed a
- 5:48Speaker 2: petition telling the government they are Gomeroy people and Rutter
- 5:52Speaker 2: is wrong to say that she is too. Through her
- 5:54Speaker 2: mother's side.
- 5:56Speaker 1: You're not Gomeroy.
- 5:57Speaker 5: Stop making out that you Gomroy when you're not. I'm
- 5:59Speaker 5: here to tell me the mens that you cannot no
- 6:02Speaker 5: longer sit on these boards representing the Great Gomroy and
- 6:07Speaker 5: represent in any shape or form of Aboriginal people.
- 6:10Speaker 2: Now that man you heard us, Matt Priestley, But I
- 6:12Speaker 2: have to say he might have a vested interest here
- 6:15Speaker 2: because he was a consultant and former director for Melinda
- 6:18Speaker 2: Rutter's company. He was dismissed, he says, unfairly. So now
- 6:22Speaker 2: there's a lot of he said, and she said the
- 6:23Speaker 2: fair work Austraid is going to have to work out.
- 6:26Speaker 2: But about Rutter's claimed aboriginality, she said, well, actually yes,
- 6:30Speaker 2: her family had also been traced back to other Aboriginal plans,
- 6:34Speaker 2: other ones, but she'd been told to identify as Gomeroy. Okay,
- 6:39Speaker 2: we'll let this court case play out. But plae all
- 6:44Speaker 2: this nonsense about who is or who is an Aboriginal
- 6:49Speaker 2: based on one Aboriginal great great grandparent or whatever, or
- 6:53Speaker 2: maybe no answers at all. None of this would matter
- 6:59Speaker 2: if we just it didn't, if we didn't instead that
- 7:05Speaker 2: high or reward people for the dumbest reason of all,
- 7:09Speaker 2: the race of one of their ancestors. Just quickly, an
- 7:16Speaker 2: update from last night's show, make recall I interviewed Fred Harrison,
- 7:20Speaker 2: head of IgA Victoria, the supermarket chain. It's got stores
- 7:23Speaker 2: all over the country. Now, friend said, last night that
- 7:28Speaker 2: only Ida stores of Victoria, though, were being robbed by
- 7:31Speaker 2: packs of youths, often with machetes, and Victoria is about
- 7:35Speaker 2: weekly in the rest of the country none and Fred
- 7:37Speaker 2: at the theory about why Victoria was so bad.
- 7:42Speaker 4: I strongly believe it's the bail laws, the government's lack
- 7:46Speaker 4: of inaction that is leading to these consistent, persistent attacks.
- 7:52Speaker 4: They are often known to the police, and the police
- 7:55Speaker 4: are so frustrated because by six o'clock to night that
- 7:59Speaker 4: we back off the streets.
- 8:01Speaker 2: Now here is the kicker. On the very day I
- 8:05Speaker 2: spoke to Fred Harrison yesterday, five years as young as
- 8:11Speaker 2: thirteen were in the Melbourne court after crashing their car
- 8:14Speaker 2: the day before as they fled the police. Now that
- 8:19Speaker 2: allegedly robbed five IgA stores, five of Fred's stores, allegedly
- 8:25Speaker 2: armed with machetes, and guess what, three were still released
- 8:30Speaker 2: on bail Yesterda, including the ringleader.
- 8:34Speaker 8: As the fifteen year old alleged ringleader faced court, he
- 8:37Speaker 8: wiped away tears, but the detective who interviewed him last
- 8:41Speaker 8: night said he showed no remorse, that it was just
- 8:44Speaker 8: another day for him.
- 8:46Speaker 2: Victoria's so badly led, so chaotic, so dangerous. I mean
- 8:50Speaker 2: one man was stabbed eleven times last week, allegedly by
- 8:53Speaker 2: five males, teenagers and a twenty four year old who'd
- 8:56Speaker 2: invaded his home with his children there as well. That
- 8:59Speaker 2: former Victory are In Premier Jeff Kennett today said this
- 9:02Speaker 2: about us, say we are ft. The economy here is ft.
- 9:06Speaker 2: People are going to leave. For the first time in
- 9:08Speaker 2: my life, he said, I'm constantly thinking about my personal
- 9:11Speaker 2: safety and that of my grandchildren. If you ask the community,
- 9:14Speaker 2: are you worried about your personal safety? Eighty to ninety
- 9:17Speaker 2: percent say yes. I've never seen such chaos and such
- 9:21Speaker 2: catastrophic mismanagement myself. You know, I really haven't because I
- 9:26Speaker 2: feel this fear as well. I have never seen it
- 9:28Speaker 2: as as if Victoria's institutions have forgotten what it takes
- 9:33Speaker 2: to lead. Okay, we get to Barnaby Joyce now, but first,
- 9:42Speaker 2: you know, the Albinezy government's three day round tables finished
- 9:45Speaker 2: with a whimpag. Treasure of Jim Charmers has just come
- 9:47Speaker 2: out what an hour or two ago said Oh, I've
- 9:50Speaker 2: got so many good ideas or though really, when you
- 9:53Speaker 2: look at them as a bit of a you know,
- 9:54Speaker 2: will cut some red tape here, we'll hurry up some
- 9:57Speaker 2: approvals there, We'll build more houses faster. Lots of motherhood
- 10:03Speaker 2: statements with few details. You know. Oh, we'll make taxes fairer.
- 10:07Speaker 2: But how that's the big one. If there was one
- 10:11Speaker 2: clear proposal, it was this a road user tax, another tax,
- 10:17Speaker 2: But how about cutting taxes instead, like the very high
- 10:21Speaker 2: taxes on business that is driving so many big companies
- 10:25Speaker 2: now to go invest overseas instead. Because I want to
- 10:29Speaker 2: now show you something, it's the most frightening picture in
- 10:32Speaker 2: the news today. It's the bosses of two of our
- 10:35Speaker 2: mining giants with Donald Trump. There's the bosses of Rio
- 10:39Speaker 2: Tinto on the left. There the boss of BHP on
- 10:42Speaker 2: the right. That he's the guy right next to Trump.
- 10:45Speaker 2: And they are there because Trump does what our leaders
- 10:47Speaker 2: will not, and he pushes extremely hard to get mining
- 10:51Speaker 2: projects started. And Rio and BHP want one of those projects,
- 10:56Speaker 2: a massive copper project in Arizona. Resolution Copper is called,
- 11:00Speaker 2: and Trump says he is not going to put up
- 11:03Speaker 2: with nonsense of the kind we see here from environmentalists
- 11:07Speaker 2: and traditional owners trying to block it. A note this
- 11:11Speaker 2: that BHP CEO Mike Henry was there two days Ago
- 11:16Speaker 2: said BHP was in the meantime looking to get out
- 11:19Speaker 2: of its coal mines in Queensland, and why because greedy
- 11:24Speaker 2: governors here were taxing them too high to make it
- 11:27Speaker 2: worth an effective tax rate more than sixty percent. Join
- 11:31Speaker 2: me every Thursday's the National ZMP. Barnaby Joyce, the former
- 11:33Speaker 2: Deputy Prime Minister. Barnaby be great to see you. How
- 11:36Speaker 2: many big companies have now been warning that they are
- 11:41Speaker 2: being forced to invest more overseas. Gina Reinhardt, she's worn
- 11:45Speaker 2: this for ages and.
- 11:46Speaker 9: Now look Barnaby, well, what we're doing obviously is making
- 11:51Speaker 9: a nation poorer. And what we are seeing that his
- 11:54Speaker 9: money is fungible, that is it can go to different places.
- 11:58Speaker 9: And what we understand, what people should understand is you
- 12:02Speaker 9: have to take something through a capital.
- 12:04Speaker 1: Expenditship process to the board.
- 12:06Speaker 9: You have to say, if I invest in Australia, the
- 12:08Speaker 9: returns to the company is this. If I invest in
- 12:10Speaker 9: the United States that, If I invest in Chile it's that,
- 12:13Speaker 9: If I invest in the Cameroon it's this. But these
- 12:17Speaker 9: are these risks and what happens on behalf the shareholders
- 12:22Speaker 9: is a take that one that has the biggest return
- 12:25Speaker 9: in the lowest risk and that's not Australia. And that
- 12:29Speaker 9: means that the money goes to the United States of America,
- 12:32Speaker 9: the jobs go to the United States of America, the
- 12:34Speaker 9: tax revenue from the success of that project goes to
- 12:37Speaker 9: the United States of America, and our debt gets bigger
- 12:41Speaker 9: and we become weaker, and the United States of America says, well,
- 12:46Speaker 9: congratulations the idiots. You are the ones who wrapped yourself
- 12:49Speaker 9: up in red tape, black tape, green tape, every tape, and.
- 12:52Speaker 1: We just took the projects off you.
- 12:55Speaker 2: Yep. I think Donald Trump, being so pro business is
- 12:59Speaker 2: going to sack a lot of business out of Australia
- 13:00Speaker 2: and it's all our fault.
- 13:02Speaker 1: Already doing it. It's already doing it.
- 13:04Speaker 2: Yeah, I know he's already doing it. I've seen it.
- 13:06Speaker 2: I've seen it. Tonight the Bannaby Sharry Markson has got
- 13:11Speaker 2: an exclusive interview with Israeli Prime Minister Beni Minetni right
- 13:14Speaker 2: after my show. He's going to give anything the othern
- 13:17Speaker 2: easy another blast, calling a week leader has been cheered
- 13:20Speaker 2: by terrorists. Is his right to get so personal?
- 13:26Speaker 9: Well, personally, I would prefer that they did not do
- 13:30Speaker 9: this in public. I can absolutely understand where President Natnya
- 13:36Speaker 9: Who's coming from. If it looks like you were supporting terrorists,
- 13:40Speaker 9: If it smells like you were supporting terrorists, then you're
- 13:43Speaker 9: doing an incredibly bad thing. And I've had good friends
- 13:46Speaker 9: who've been serving members. They are furious, absolutely furious that
- 13:51Speaker 9: our government has sort of sided with people who mates
- 13:55Speaker 9: with the Taliban, mates with Isis. These are the people
- 13:59Speaker 9: the Australians fought and people died fighting them.
- 14:02Speaker 1: We're not friends with these people now. They are not
- 14:05Speaker 1: our friends. They're our enemies, our enemies. They keep it
- 14:08Speaker 1: kill people. They started a war.
- 14:10Speaker 9: That's why there's a war going on over there. They've
- 14:12Speaker 9: murdered people and rape people and still have people locked
- 14:15Speaker 9: up underground.
- 14:15Speaker 1: They're starving them to death. They are not our friends.
- 14:19Speaker 1: We don't make friends with these people.
- 14:21Speaker 9: You know what what has to happen to Hamas is
- 14:24Speaker 9: they have to surrender and they have to hand over
- 14:28Speaker 9: the hostages and then I'm sure things will get better.
- 14:31Speaker 1: But I don't think it's.
- 14:33Speaker 9: Helping anybody for there to be an open dispute for
- 14:37Speaker 9: all to read between a Prime Minister net and Yahoo
- 14:40Speaker 9: and mister Alberinezi that I don't know what that achieves.
- 14:45Speaker 9: I think dignified statements by a promise who absolutely one
- 14:51Speaker 9: he must back in his thing. But the communications, I
- 14:54Speaker 9: think they should be kept private.
- 14:58Speaker 2: I am struck. Barnaby reports today that the Christophery Queensland
- 15:03Speaker 2: government it's going to change businessmen and others to eighty
- 15:07Speaker 2: thousand dollars for FaceTime with the premiere one of his
- 15:10Speaker 2: ministers during a Liberal National Party fundraiser now selling access
- 15:14Speaker 2: and that is going to obviously be access for the
- 15:18Speaker 2: well off. Isn't that anti democratic and really an invitation
- 15:22Speaker 2: to corruption?
- 15:24Speaker 1: Also, I think it's a waste of money, to be honest.
- 15:27Speaker 1: You know, these the lovings that you go in and
- 15:30Speaker 1: you have these.
- 15:31Speaker 9: Fifteen minute conversations or ten minute conversations with people, they're
- 15:36Speaker 9: perfunctory and all political parties the effect of them, I
- 15:39Speaker 9: just really don't know.
- 15:40Speaker 1: And it doesn't it doesn't look good.
- 15:42Speaker 9: But you know, the problem you've got in all political
- 15:44Speaker 9: parties is unless you raise money, how do you run
- 15:46Speaker 9: a campaign And therefore they're always going to be looking
- 15:49Speaker 9: for ways to raise money to run a campaign. And
- 15:52Speaker 9: unless the Lay Party got the union movement on the
- 15:55Speaker 9: conservative side for those who of us who still caught
- 15:58Speaker 9: the conservative side dying for you. Well, where does our
- 16:03Speaker 9: money come from. We've got to actually raise it from
- 16:05Speaker 9: business or get it donated to us, otherwise there is
- 16:09Speaker 9: no money.
- 16:11Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, but this pay for access kind of stuff.
- 16:15Speaker 2: I think, really, I think that to be accessible.
- 16:19Speaker 9: I think it's just it goes through the ritual of
- 16:21Speaker 9: it in it, like, really, can you honestly get through
- 16:24Speaker 9: to me what Sky News wants ten minutes? I mean,
- 16:27Speaker 9: I'm not really listening to you. You're not really really
- 16:29Speaker 9: listening to me. We're just ticking a box and moving on.
- 16:32Speaker 9: But you're welcome at any time of the day to
- 16:34Speaker 9: walking our door and actually do it politely over a
- 16:36Speaker 9: cup of tea over half an hour, forty five minutes.
- 16:39Speaker 1: And properly get to the bottom of the issue.
- 16:41Speaker 9: And that's actually what our office is in Canberra and
- 16:43Speaker 9: Parliament House or the state parliaments are for so that
- 16:45Speaker 9: people can come in and spend it a respectable amount
- 16:48Speaker 9: of time actually getting to the bottom of these issues
- 16:51Speaker 9: to try and work out how we help people. And
- 16:54Speaker 9: I'm a great cynic for people who are just you know,
- 16:57Speaker 9: just that on the breadcrumbs of lobbyists like the lobbyist
- 17:00Speaker 9: tick a box and he's seen you. Therefore he gets
- 17:03Speaker 9: paid ten fifteen thousand dollars. If mister Smith rings up
- 17:06Speaker 9: and what's seen me, I will see missus Smith and
- 17:08Speaker 9: they do not need a lobbyist.
- 17:12Speaker 2: Well, barnaby, I have to say that I and the
- 17:14Speaker 2: audience hang on your every word. So this is access.
- 17:18Speaker 2: Well does well spent? I mean, have we spent any?
- 17:22Speaker 1: I'm sure we have fun on you.
- 17:26Speaker 2: Thank you so much, aded for your time. After the
- 17:30Speaker 2: break at top American general has talked to Donald Trump
- 17:33Speaker 2: about what Trump really thinks of Russia's president. It's actually
- 17:38Speaker 2: good news, I think, and he'll tell us after this.
- 17:42Speaker 2: Don't miss what's coming up. Israel is now sending eighty
- 17:49Speaker 2: thousand soldiers into Gaza City to destroy the last holdouts
- 17:53Speaker 2: of mus and free the remaining twenty Jewish hostages. It's
- 17:57Speaker 2: ignoring armchair critics like our prime say anything of an
- 18:00Speaker 2: easy who was rarely priminis amnum and then you know
- 18:02Speaker 2: who gave another serve in an interview that Sherry Maxim
- 18:05Speaker 2: will play in full straight after my show.
- 18:09Speaker 8: Why do you believe history will remember him as a
- 18:12Speaker 8: weak politician?
- 18:15Speaker 10: Well, look, I'm sure he has a reputable record as
- 18:18Speaker 10: a public servant, but I think his record is forever
- 18:21Speaker 10: tarnished by the weakness that he showed in the face
- 18:24Speaker 10: of these Commas terrorist monsters. You know, when the worst
- 18:28Speaker 10: terrorist organization on Earth, these savages who murdered women, raped them,
- 18:35Speaker 10: beheaded men, burnt babies alive in front of their parents,
- 18:39Speaker 10: and took hundreds of hostages. When these people congratulate the
- 18:44Speaker 10: Prime Minister of Australia, you know something is wrong.
- 18:49Speaker 2: You know, none of people look at the big picture,
- 18:51Speaker 2: you know, the rise and fall of empire stuff, because
- 18:55Speaker 2: when you do, there's actually good news. The alliance of
- 18:59Speaker 2: Tyrannies rushed China, North Korea and Iran. They look so
- 19:02Speaker 2: dangerous has for now been checked. In Ukraine, Russian President
- 19:09Speaker 2: Vladimir Putin's running out of Rope. I think Donald Trump
- 19:11Speaker 2: is finally seeing through him and could at last drop
- 19:14Speaker 2: an anvalompe Putin quite soon. And that's after Putin's invasion
- 19:18Speaker 2: of Ukraine turned into a catastrophe, more than a million
- 19:20Speaker 2: Russian soldiers killed or injured, with Russia still holding only
- 19:24Speaker 2: twenty percent of Ukraine or less. And in the Middle East,
- 19:28Speaker 2: it's even more decisive It's true. Israel suffered terrible losses
- 19:32Speaker 2: when Hamas terrorists backed by Iran invaded it two years ago,
- 19:36Speaker 2: massacring Jews. But since then Israel has decimated Hamas, it
- 19:42Speaker 2: has destroyed the Hesbela terrorist army in Lebanon, also backed
- 19:45Speaker 2: by Iran, and Iran itself has at its nuclear weapons
- 19:49Speaker 2: program smashed by both Israel and the US. Iran's power
- 19:54Speaker 2: seems for now broken. That's great. I was joined earlier
- 19:58Speaker 2: by my regular military experts for Star General Jack Kean.
- 20:02Speaker 2: Now General Kean was the Vice Chief of Staff for
- 20:05Speaker 2: the United States Army. He is now chairman of the
- 20:07Speaker 2: Institute for the Study of War. General Kean, thank you
- 20:11Speaker 2: so much for joining us again. Real pleasure to have you.
- 20:15Speaker 2: So many countries like ours, they're savaging Israel, now they're
- 20:20Speaker 2: recognizing the Palestinian state. I mean, Israel has rarely seemed
- 20:25Speaker 2: so isolated in its war against Isamus terror But is
- 20:30Speaker 2: this war against Tamas, against Hazbola, against the Iran is
- 20:35Speaker 2: it actually working out in the one metric that Israel
- 20:38Speaker 2: cares about most, and that is making it safer?
- 20:43Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 20:43Speaker 11: I think the fact that Netanyo is about as effective
- 20:48Speaker 11: as a wartime commander I have seen in some time,
- 20:52Speaker 11: and I think the reason for that is despite all
- 20:56Speaker 11: the distraction is the political international isolation as well as condemnation.
- 21:03Speaker 11: They're growing and disturbing anti Semitism that we see in
- 21:10Speaker 11: actually free democratic countries like the United States of America.
- 21:15Speaker 11: Despite all of that, he is focused like a laser
- 21:21Speaker 11: on just what you said. He wants to end this
- 21:25Speaker 11: so that there's not going to be a repeat of
- 21:27Speaker 11: October to seventh, that these forces from Iran all the
- 21:32Speaker 11: way down to their proxies is a mere shadow of
- 21:35Speaker 11: their former self. And I think he's driven to this
- 21:40Speaker 11: because of his own culpability in the failures of October
- 21:44Speaker 11: to seventh, and he desperately wants to get this right
- 21:47Speaker 11: for his people, and he is pursuing that despite political costs,
- 21:52Speaker 11: despite personal costs, and the rest of it. And I
- 21:56Speaker 11: believe his strategy is sound. And I think the only
- 22:00Speaker 11: reason why Hamas now has its handout, so to speak,
- 22:06Speaker 11: willing to put forward a deal is because Prime Minister
- 22:12Speaker 11: has put its foot down despite despite some of the
- 22:16Speaker 11: urging even from his Chief of Service, General Samir, You
- 22:20Speaker 11: know that we should go easy and not conduct another
- 22:23Speaker 11: campaign because it's going to endanger the hostages. Netanyau believes
- 22:29Speaker 11: only by using force at this point, because we're down
- 22:32Speaker 11: to a small number of hostages there to guarantee to
- 22:36Speaker 11: Hamas leadership that is remaining survival, and he believes the
- 22:41Speaker 11: best course of action is to put pressure on them
- 22:44Speaker 11: with the threat of force and then actually would force itself.
- 22:47Speaker 2: Donald Trumps this week said he could be close to
- 22:50Speaker 2: getting a piece deel between Russia and Ukraine that he
- 22:53Speaker 2: ranged the Russian president of letting me Putin had agreed
- 22:55Speaker 2: to talk peace with the Ukrainian president, Vladimir Zelenski. Although
- 22:59Speaker 2: I have to say that Putin's been saying that for
- 23:02Speaker 2: what four months or something. But I think that Trump
- 23:07Speaker 2: has realized this may not actually be the big breakthrough
- 23:10Speaker 2: he first seemed to think, judging by his phone call
- 23:12Speaker 2: to Fox News yesterday.
- 23:14Speaker 7: I hope President Putin is going to be good and
- 23:17Speaker 7: it is not. It's going to be a rough situation,
- 23:19Speaker 7: and I hope that is Alenski were President Zelensky will
- 23:25Speaker 7: do what he has to do. He has to show
- 23:27Speaker 7: some flexibility. Also, we're going to find out about President
- 23:31Speaker 7: Putin in the next couple of weeks. That I can
- 23:32Speaker 7: tell you, and we're going to see where it all goes.
- 23:36Speaker 7: It is possible that he doesn't want to make a deal.
- 23:39Speaker 2: General. In the past couple of days, Russia has in
- 23:42Speaker 2: fact poured cold water on this talk of peace. He
- 23:45Speaker 2: said the peace talks would need to get a lot
- 23:47Speaker 2: more preparation. Europe couldn't send any peace keepers to Ukraine
- 23:51Speaker 2: to guarantee its safety from another Russian attack, And in
- 23:53Speaker 2: fact now Russia and China would have to be involved
- 23:57Speaker 2: in any such Ukrainian secure which suggests that can veto
- 24:02Speaker 2: any protection of Russian does invade again. All this tells
- 24:06Speaker 2: me and Donald Trump is being played again.
- 24:09Speaker 1: No, I don't think so at all.
- 24:11Speaker 11: I think what's he knows very well what Putin is
- 24:14Speaker 11: up to, and we have been working very hard here
- 24:19Speaker 11: for the last couple of days to put together some
- 24:22Speaker 11: security guarantees. It's being led by the Chairman of Joint
- 24:26Speaker 11: Chiefs and a Supreme Allied Commander NATO who happens to
- 24:28Speaker 11: be an American general, and they've been working with the
- 24:33Speaker 11: Coalition of the Willing. The details of that are all
- 24:37Speaker 11: putting together. They're going to bring those. Secretary Rubio will
- 24:41Speaker 11: see some of that tomorrow. He's going to be talking
- 24:44Speaker 11: to all the national security advisors from the participating countries,
- 24:48Speaker 11: and the President likely will get a briefing on on Friday.
- 24:53Speaker 11: These security guarantees cannot be underestimated. They're absolutely critical. So
- 24:59Speaker 11: our audience understands we're talking about, assuming we get a
- 25:03Speaker 11: peace agreement, how do we make certain that that peace
- 25:06Speaker 11: agreement lasts. Because Russia has always broken ceasefires, They've always
- 25:11Speaker 11: broken the agreements they did with previous agreements in Ukraine,
- 25:14Speaker 11: they broke all the ceasefires in Syria. We know that
- 25:17Speaker 11: they would break it. So we have to put deterrens there,
- 25:22Speaker 11: some of it on the ground, some airpower, etc. To
- 25:25Speaker 11: make certain that Russia sees that and knows that they
- 25:29Speaker 11: would be in a much larger war if they attack,
- 25:33Speaker 11: and being a war with the United States and with
- 25:35Speaker 11: other European countries, and we think we can achieve that
- 25:40Speaker 11: kind of deterrence. The other thing is to build up
- 25:42Speaker 11: significantly the military capability of Ukraine. We know full well
- 25:48Speaker 11: that if we have a peace agreement in China, Iran
- 25:52Speaker 11: and North Korea will keep arming and supporting Russia, make
- 25:57Speaker 11: no mistake about it. But that's kind of what has
- 26:00Speaker 11: taken place here, and I see that as a positive thing,
- 26:03Speaker 11: and it gives the Lensky.
- 26:05Speaker 1: Once we get this.
- 26:06Speaker 11: Package together, and I've been talking to his very senior
- 26:09Speaker 11: people who are here and most of them and not
- 26:12Speaker 11: all of them have gone home, some of are still
- 26:14Speaker 11: working on these security guarantees. That gives him more running
- 26:18Speaker 11: room in terms of options to make deals with Putin
- 26:22Speaker 11: in terms of land and territory, because he knows he's
- 26:27Speaker 11: got a solid security guarantee that putin a taxi's going
- 26:32Speaker 11: to be at war with multiple nations and that's something
- 26:35Speaker 11: he can't handle. Look at he can't defeat Ukraine. He
- 26:39Speaker 11: hasn't been able to do it since in the last
- 26:44Speaker 11: year and a half he's gained one percent of territory.
- 26:47Speaker 11: He has right now nineteen percent of Ukraine. That's all
- 26:54Speaker 11: he has. And he's been at this now, you.
- 26:58Speaker 1: Know, for forty two months.
- 27:00Speaker 11: He cannot take Ukraine if the United States and the
- 27:03Speaker 11: Europeans and others continued to provide assistance.
- 27:06Speaker 1: Not possible.
- 27:07Speaker 11: We've done all the analysis on that. He can't even
- 27:10Speaker 11: take this fortress. Felt inside the nest that he wants
- 27:14Speaker 11: that he wants a Lensli to gift to him, and
- 27:16Speaker 11: that's why he wants him to give it to him,
- 27:18Speaker 11: because he can't take it. That's the reality of it.
- 27:22Speaker 11: So if we get the good security guarantees in that
- 27:26Speaker 11: we have an enduring agreement that gives the Lenski more
- 27:30Speaker 11: running room, and it also is sending a very strong
- 27:33Speaker 11: message to Putin. Donald Trump, the Euros dead that serious. Listen,
- 27:39Speaker 11: these Europeans, they are all in on this, Andrew. There
- 27:44Speaker 11: is no doubt about their commitment and their resolve here.
- 27:48Speaker 11: They know full well that Putin wants Ukraine take control
- 27:52Speaker 11: of it. It's his anchor, and he's going to expand
- 27:55Speaker 11: into Eastern Europe. There's no doubt in their mind about that.
- 27:58Speaker 11: There's no doubt in the mind a United States leadership
- 28:01Speaker 11: here about that, and there's no doubt in Putin's mind
- 28:04Speaker 11: about it, because that really is his plan. We've got
- 28:07Speaker 11: to stop this in Ukraine once and for all.
- 28:10Speaker 2: I hear exactly what you're saying. I take great comfort
- 28:13Speaker 2: from it. My point really is that I do not
- 28:16Speaker 2: believe this talk that Putin is ready for peace. That
- 28:19Speaker 2: is the thing, and I just thought they should have
- 28:21Speaker 2: followed through with the sanctions now to make him realize
- 28:25Speaker 2: that all this drawing out of this conflict is over.
- 28:28Speaker 2: But what you've said is very heartening. General jack Kin,
- 28:33Speaker 2: thank you so much, indeed for your time.
- 28:36Speaker 11: Yeah great talking to Andrew, you and your audience.
- 28:38Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 28:39Speaker 2: After the break. The AFL is attack for double standards,
- 28:43Speaker 2: rubbing out a star player for a homophobic word, but
- 28:48Speaker 2: Harry against the Rapper for the Grand Final who said
- 28:51Speaker 2: exactly the same Australia's woker sporting giant. Well, how embarrassing
- 29:02Speaker 2: I said last week it was irresponsible for it to
- 29:05Speaker 2: higher American gainst. The Rapper Snoop dogg to go perform
- 29:07Speaker 2: it next month's Grand Final.
- 29:10Speaker 6: Your boy big Snoop deal double g at the MCG.
- 29:15Speaker 2: Now look the AFL today club and an Adelaide Crows
- 29:19Speaker 2: star Isaac Rankin for a homophobic slur against the Collingwood player.
- 29:24Speaker 2: It's the F word, you know, rhymes with maggot. A
- 29:28Speaker 2: four week ban, but the Outlaie Football Club has quite
- 29:30Speaker 2: rightly said reportedly hang on the hypocrites, as The Herald
- 29:34Speaker 2: Sun reported. Not lost on the Crows is that the
- 29:38Speaker 2: AFL has been trying to stamp out homophobia by increasing
- 29:41Speaker 2: player penalties over the past sixteen months, but then secured
- 29:45Speaker 2: a Grand Final performer who is the lyrics contradictory to that,
- 29:48Speaker 2: and sure enough Snoop Dogg has a track with the
- 29:53Speaker 2: line can't believe that dog would diss me that F word,
- 29:57Speaker 2: that punky soft or sissy. And what's more, in an
- 30:01Speaker 2: interview said well, you know, Gollie Gosh, we can't have
- 30:07Speaker 2: this have gays in punk rock field and against the
- 30:12Speaker 2: rap field because they're not masculine enough. I mean seriously,
- 30:16Speaker 2: So we have a player who gets rubbed out for
- 30:19Speaker 2: four weeks after using the F word, and Snoop Dogg
- 30:21Speaker 2: gets paid a million or more. And it's not just
- 30:26Speaker 2: that the AFL also punishes players for drug use, but
- 30:28Speaker 2: as a rapper who says that we should smoke weed
- 30:31Speaker 2: and lots of it. Honestly, I'll tell you about the
- 30:41Speaker 2: smoking ceremony at the MCG could be something else this
- 30:44Speaker 2: time with Snoop Dogg.
- 30:45Speaker 11: There.
- 30:47Speaker 2: Yes, I did use an a picture, but at least
- 30:49Speaker 2: the AFL bossed this afternoon tried to defend the hypocrisy.
- 30:54Speaker 3: We cannot vouch for every lyric in every song ever
- 30:56Speaker 3: written or performed by any artist who has or will
- 31:00Speaker 3: appear on our stage Australian or international. But what I
- 31:03Speaker 3: can say is our pre match entertainment on Grand Final
- 31:06Speaker 3: Day will be family friendly and consistent with the audience
- 31:09Speaker 3: at the MCG and those watching the broadcast.
- 31:13Speaker 2: I'm joined by Will Kingston, host of Farret Will, a
- 31:16Speaker 2: podcast from The Spectator on politics and culture, and Chris
- 31:20Speaker 2: I McSweeney, who has worked for coalition prime ministers and
- 31:23Speaker 2: premiers on how to get their message across and knows
- 31:27Speaker 2: everything about that. Will does this show unsuccessfully? It seems, well,
- 31:35Speaker 2: look it takes two to communicate, one to say, but
- 31:38Speaker 2: the other to listen. Will does this show? AFL was
- 31:43Speaker 2: stupid to hire a man who's legitimized exactly what they're
- 31:46Speaker 2: punishing players for.
- 31:49Speaker 12: Yes, I think it does. And as an aside, it's
- 31:52Speaker 12: made my day here in your interpretation of Snoop Dogg Andrews,
- 31:55Speaker 12: so thank you for that. The reality is that and
- 32:00Speaker 12: call me old fashioned. I don't think that. I think
- 32:03Speaker 12: that what is said on the field should stay on
- 32:05Speaker 12: the field, even if what is said on the field
- 32:07Speaker 12: is unsavory, because I don't think sporting bodies should be
- 32:11Speaker 12: the arbiters of morality. These administrators, particularly the AFL, but
- 32:15Speaker 12: you'll find the same in Union and NRL are riven
- 32:19Speaker 12: with internal contradictions. You know, they are very happy to
- 32:22Speaker 12: virtue signal on the trendy identity politics issues of the day,
- 32:26Speaker 12: whether it be the Voice or whether it be gay
- 32:28Speaker 12: marriage if you go as far back as the Israel
- 32:30Speaker 12: Filao saga. But at the same time they're very happy
- 32:33Speaker 12: to partner with morally questionable stakeholders like sports gambling companies
- 32:38Speaker 12: all like snoop when they can make a buck out
- 32:41Speaker 12: of it. And I think people can smell this and
- 32:43Speaker 12: just they raise that their roll their eyes and go, guys,
- 32:46Speaker 12: just focus on the football because people across society, not
- 32:50Speaker 12: just as sport but more generally, are.
- 32:52Speaker 2: Sick of being lectured to.
- 32:53Speaker 12: And I don't think flolks who get their heads bashed
- 32:57Speaker 12: in on a regular basis should be philosophizing on and
- 33:00Speaker 12: moral issues.
- 33:03Speaker 2: What do you think, Chris? I mean, there is a
- 33:05Speaker 2: proposal that they shouldn't even punish a player for using
- 33:08Speaker 2: quite offensive insults against other players.
- 33:11Speaker 13: What do you think, Look, it's offensive. He's said something
- 33:17Speaker 13: that he knows that other players have been punished for saying.
- 33:21Speaker 13: So there's a precedent of this it's offensive in this
- 33:25Speaker 13: datat is to use that word. He shouldn't have done
- 33:27Speaker 13: it and he should cop the consequences. But the viewpoint
- 33:31Speaker 13: seems to be are those consequences comparative to other people
- 33:36Speaker 13: who have committed the same crime. And against the backdrop
- 33:42Speaker 13: of this contradiction of recruiting Snoop Dogg to be your
- 33:45Speaker 13: headline act at the Grand Final, here's an anecdote. Twenty
- 33:49Speaker 13: years ago, before my glittering or unglittering political career, whichever
- 33:53Speaker 13: way you look at it, I had the job of
- 33:56Speaker 13: looking after Snoop Dogg when he visited Australia in the
- 34:00Speaker 13: early two thousands. He was high as a kite everywhere
- 34:03Speaker 13: he went. And if the AFL thinks they are going
- 34:07Speaker 13: to control the behavior of a major visiting celebrity, something
- 34:11Speaker 13: that I have done, not just with Snoop Dogg, but
- 34:13Speaker 13: with other major visiting celebrities to Australia, you cannot There's
- 34:18Speaker 13: no way that the AFL is going to stop him
- 34:21Speaker 13: from going to a nightclub appearing to be under the
- 34:23Speaker 13: influence of drugs, possibly appearing to be under the influence
- 34:28Speaker 13: where when he's participating in events with the AFL, they
- 34:32Speaker 13: won't be able to. They've chosen badly and it's reflected
- 34:37Speaker 13: very badly against them in this decision making process and
- 34:42Speaker 13: the own goal they have kicked in regards to the
- 34:47Speaker 13: punishment of this young player, which, as I said, you
- 34:50Speaker 13: do it, there's precedent there, you should cop the consequence
- 34:53Speaker 13: of it. But is it in line with people who
- 34:57Speaker 13: have gone before him?
- 35:00Speaker 1: Oh?
- 35:00Speaker 2: Well, look that's interesting, but will you know the AFL
- 35:02Speaker 2: says that the guy is you know, mellowed, is got wiser,
- 35:11Speaker 2: he's a philanthropist now and it's going to be family friendly. Orthough,
- 35:14Speaker 2: I have to say these guys, and including this Dylan
- 35:19Speaker 2: character as the boss of the AFL, we're saying before oh,
- 35:22Speaker 2: my favorite tracts of this or that was just all
- 35:25Speaker 2: about his old shtick. But now we're supposed to believe
- 35:28Speaker 2: is Walt Disney, you know reborn? Do you believe it?
- 35:32Speaker 2: Is that a good enough excuse?
- 35:35Speaker 12: I actually have you know, a soft spot for Snoop
- 35:38Speaker 12: dogg Andrew. I think he's you know, I think he's fine.
- 35:41Speaker 12: That's not quite the issue I have. The issue I
- 35:44Speaker 12: have is they can't in one breath try and appease
- 35:49Speaker 12: all of these different morality issues in society and try
- 35:53Speaker 12: and look like they are this angelic administrative body. And
- 35:58Speaker 12: at the same time, also, you know, hang there also
- 36:02Speaker 12: going to bat with people like Snoop who are morally
- 36:05Speaker 12: debatable figures. You can't have it both ways, is my issue.
- 36:11Speaker 13: Look, I have to say sorry, Andrew. I was just
- 36:17Speaker 13: also going to add the AFL has faced issues recently
- 36:21Speaker 13: around its tolerance of people who have engaged in violence
- 36:26Speaker 13: against women. The lyrics in these songs, and I know
- 36:30Speaker 13: that that is perhaps part of the culture of rap music,
- 36:34Speaker 13: making significant lyrics around the treatment of women. I don't
- 36:40Speaker 13: agree with them. That doesn't exactly fit with the AFL's
- 36:45Speaker 13: moral agenda and the promotion of the IFL as a
- 36:48Speaker 13: family friendly and seeking to engage more women as AFL fans,
- 36:53Speaker 13: and particularly with the growth of the AFL W As
- 36:55Speaker 13: I said, they've chosen very very badly with this one.
- 37:00Speaker 2: Yeah, I recognize the danger here for me to assume
- 37:04Speaker 2: my son's going to write another blasting editorial about how
- 37:08Speaker 2: my views are wrong and he is a right on sloop.
- 37:11Speaker 2: But we shall see. Will The thing about the whole
- 37:16Speaker 2: woke agenda, right, is that we can get outrage about
- 37:19Speaker 2: the idiocy of it, and the sanctimony and the bullying
- 37:22Speaker 2: and all that, but honestly it's also good for a laugh.
- 37:26Speaker 2: In Germany, a neo Nazi he is now exploiting the
- 37:31Speaker 2: transgender politics. He was convicted of hate crimes but now
- 37:35Speaker 2: says is a woman, and the German authorities are so
- 37:39Speaker 2: witless or whatever you know, just form fillers, that they
- 37:43Speaker 2: are actually sending him to a women's prison. But here too,
- 37:47Speaker 2: you will there's a transgender stupidity ahead of South Australia's
- 37:51Speaker 2: Women's and Children's Health Network tell the Parliamentary Select Committee
- 37:55Speaker 2: on It was supposed to be about how still birth
- 37:58Speaker 2: affected mothers very but she said, oh, look, the terms
- 38:02Speaker 2: women and women will be used, and it is intended
- 38:05Speaker 2: to include those with diverse sexualities as well intersex women
- 38:10Speaker 2: and transgender women who are actually born males. And we've
- 38:13Speaker 2: got men born males. And when we're referring to mothers
- 38:18Speaker 2: affected by still born births, I mean crazy stuff.
- 38:23Speaker 12: Yeah, Andrew, I couldn't help but start smiling when I
- 38:26Speaker 12: saw that photo, But then I had to pause briefly
- 38:29Speaker 12: because I remembered that a the consequences of these sorts
- 38:33Speaker 12: of policies are incredibly dangerous. But b as Australians, we
- 38:37Speaker 12: have no right to laugh at Germany. Here my understanding
- 38:40Speaker 12: is in Victoria that this sort of stuff is still happening,
- 38:43Speaker 12: happening gender id in women's prisons.
- 38:45Speaker 2: Our laws, the.
- 38:47Speaker 12: Federal laws still basically allow for men to be women
- 38:50Speaker 12: and women to be men based off what you feel
- 38:52Speaker 12: like when you wake up in the morning. The UK
- 38:54Speaker 12: has settled this debate, the US has settled this debate.
- 38:57Speaker 12: We can laugh at this silliness in Germany, but it's
- 39:00Speaker 12: earlier is just as bad at the moment, which is
- 39:02Speaker 12: why I so strongly urge people to get behind people
- 39:04Speaker 12: like sal Grover and have the courage of your convictions
- 39:07Speaker 12: in the workplace with your friends wherever, and stand up
- 39:10Speaker 12: for common sense and stand up for biological reality.
- 39:14Speaker 2: Yeah well, Chrissy, I laugh at him that Nazi is
- 39:18Speaker 2: now a girly Nazi. I laugh at him for being
- 39:22Speaker 2: such an idiot. But on the other hand, you've got
- 39:26Speaker 2: to be really asking questions about the German authority mentality
- 39:31Speaker 2: that says, okay you are I mean, it's you are
- 39:35Speaker 2: a woman.
- 39:35Speaker 12: I mean, it's just nuts and the Australian mentality.
- 39:38Speaker 13: Andrew look you have Yeah, you have to ask questions
- 39:42Speaker 13: about jurisdictions and the world over that don't draw a
- 39:47Speaker 13: line in the sand around what's tolerance and what's rejecting
- 39:51Speaker 13: the rights of actual women. And we had a controversy
- 39:55Speaker 13: here in Victoria not long ago where someone was actually
- 39:58Speaker 13: imprisoned for murd and they were seeking to have their
- 40:04Speaker 13: IVF funded under Medicare so they could have a child.
- 40:10Speaker 13: They were someone who was I believe in a same
- 40:16Speaker 13: sex couple or perhaps trans, I'm not quite sure of
- 40:18Speaker 13: the circumstances, and it was an outrage that this person
- 40:22Speaker 13: felt that they were entitled but they had murdered somebody.
- 40:27Speaker 13: I actually do believe it was the same sex partnership,
- 40:30Speaker 13: not trans. My apologies, but they had murdered somebody. They
- 40:33Speaker 13: were in prison for murdering the person that they were
- 40:36Speaker 13: seeking to have a child with, and the Victorian government
- 40:41Speaker 13: was deliberating about that, well, should we support this person's
- 40:45Speaker 13: right to have a child in prison for some weeks
- 40:48Speaker 13: before there was significant public pressure here in Melbourne, thanks
- 40:54Speaker 13: to elements of the media as well and the general
- 40:57Speaker 13: public who said, look, this person's murdered some you shouldn't
- 41:01Speaker 13: have to deliberate whether they can have our taxpayer funded
- 41:04Speaker 13: dollars funded by state and federal governments to undergo a
- 41:09Speaker 13: pregnancy the murder.
- 41:15Speaker 2: As soon as you said, Victorian Governor, I knew some
- 41:17Speaker 2: idiocy would follow. I just knew it. It's a byword now.
- 41:22Speaker 2: Thank you very much, Christopher Sweetey, Will Kingston for your time.
- 41:25Speaker 2: Really appreciate that. After the break, I'll talk to Patrick Christis,
- 41:32Speaker 2: who's fantastic every week. But also don't forget hang on afterwards,
- 41:38Speaker 2: because after that, Sharry Marxy Markson will be presenting that
- 41:43Speaker 2: exclusive interview of Venaminetner, who's not backing off on his
- 41:48Speaker 2: comments about Anthony ap Easy. That's after this. Don't forget
- 41:55Speaker 2: Sherry Marx's interview with Benjaminettner, who, after my show, but
- 42:00Speaker 2: first Britain is so unbelievably woke that it's just spent
- 42:04Speaker 2: this ad for racism. See if you can spot why.
- 42:08Speaker 14: To those who might scratch day and night, to those
- 42:11Speaker 14: who steam may feel dried out even by water, try
- 42:14Speaker 14: to take a shower with the new Saanax skin therapy
- 42:17Speaker 14: and it's patented amino acid complex for twenty four hour
- 42:21Speaker 14: hydration for you. Really could be as simple as a
- 42:25Speaker 14: shower certified by the British Skin Foundation.
- 42:29Speaker 2: Didn't get the problem. Join Me from London as Patrick
- 42:32Speaker 2: Christie's star presenter of gb News, Petrick clueus in on
- 42:37Speaker 2: this How on earth did that ad get banned?
- 42:41Speaker 6: What were witnessing here? Andrew is woke diversity and inclusion
- 42:44Speaker 6: eating itself alive. So the company Samax said that they
- 42:48Speaker 6: wanted to include black people because of the company's commitment
- 42:53Speaker 6: to diversity. They then showed black people who happen to
- 42:57Speaker 6: have bad, itchy skin. And then what happened was two
- 43:02Speaker 6: people complained yep, two people, and the advert got pulled
- 43:07Speaker 6: and they apologized because apparently they were showing some kind
- 43:10Speaker 6: of racial trope that black people have itchier skin than
- 43:13Speaker 6: white people. I must I was not aware of that,
- 43:15Speaker 6: but anyway, that's.
- 43:16Speaker 1: What they've said.
- 43:17Speaker 6: They've apologized, They've released a statement saying that they have
- 43:20Speaker 6: an unwavering commitment.
- 43:22Speaker 2: To diversity in that they are very very sorry.
- 43:24Speaker 6: But can you imagine if they if they flipped it
- 43:27Speaker 6: round and it was it was white people, or if
- 43:29Speaker 6: it was a sun cream advert with a fair skinned
- 43:32Speaker 6: white person getting sunburned. Is that a racial traming jag
- 43:35Speaker 6: you at the car company released an advert well just
- 43:38Speaker 6: just androgynous, gender neutral, mixed race people. The company shares
- 43:42Speaker 6: absolutely tanked because the advert was so bad.
- 43:45Speaker 11: There was no.
- 43:46Speaker 6: Apology then to shareholders or to customers at all, because
- 43:49Speaker 6: of course that was fine, wasn't it. You can tank
- 43:52Speaker 6: an entire company based around an advert with needless diversity
- 43:56Speaker 6: and inclusion, but if you offend two people, then you've
- 43:59Speaker 6: got to put all the whole thing.
- 44:02Speaker 2: Two people in all of Great Britain. I means, seriously,
- 44:05Speaker 2: seriously tatoric. Look, your government, your labor government, so far
- 44:10Speaker 2: led in fifty thousand legal boat people. That's not bad
- 44:14Speaker 2: going in less than two years. Many are being housed
- 44:17Speaker 2: in hotels all around the country, including in small towns,
- 44:20Speaker 2: and a lot of locals are a bit nerves not happy.
- 44:23Speaker 2: But now your High Court has really put a spanner
- 44:26Speaker 2: in the works here. It's said that one of these
- 44:28Speaker 2: hotels must stop housing illegal immigrants. It's a breach of
- 44:33Speaker 2: planning laws, that says, and you've joined locals. There have
- 44:36Speaker 2: been protests against this hotel. This is a huge decision,
- 44:39Speaker 2: isn't it, Because what is the government going to do
- 44:42Speaker 2: now with all these people and other illegal immigrants in
- 44:45Speaker 2: other hotels.
- 44:46Speaker 1: Well, just on that, Andrew.
- 44:48Speaker 6: The reason I was looking down though, is in the
- 44:49Speaker 6: last few minutes we've had breaking news, which is that
- 44:51Speaker 6: one hundred and eleven thousand people have claimed asylum in
- 44:55Speaker 6: the UK and the year ending twenty twenty five, sorry
- 44:59Speaker 6: June twenty twenty that's fourteen percent higher than the previous year,
- 45:02Speaker 6: one hundred and eleven thousand in a year. The figures
- 45:04Speaker 6: have literally just come out. But to answer your question,
- 45:07Speaker 6: what are the government going to do if these hotels
- 45:09Speaker 6: have to close, They've got four options. They could fight
- 45:11Speaker 6: it and go to legal war with the British public,
- 45:13Speaker 6: which would be a bad idea. They could try to
- 45:15Speaker 6: move some of the thirty two thousand or so people
- 45:18Speaker 6: in these hotels into houses of multiple occupancies. So for example,
- 45:22Speaker 6: they could buy the flat next door to mine where
- 45:24Speaker 6: I'm living now and put five lads from Sudan in there,
- 45:27Speaker 6: and I don't think that's going to go down particularly well.
- 45:30Speaker 6: They could use an offshore processing scheme like the Ruanda
- 45:33Speaker 6: scheme that they scrapped, or they could say deport, deport,
- 45:37Speaker 6: deport personally. I would choose option four, so as well,
- 45:41Speaker 6: just to just quickly on that other breaking news. We've
- 45:43Speaker 6: just had the top five nationalities that have claimed asign
- 45:46Speaker 6: them or come across on a small boat in the
- 45:48Speaker 6: last year. Afghan's era trains Iranians, Syrians and Sudanase.
- 45:53Speaker 11: So it'd be very interesting to see what the.
- 45:54Speaker 6: Government does about that, whether or not they tried to
- 45:57Speaker 6: deport in those people, or whether or not they decide
- 45:59Speaker 6: that we can't say and anyone back to any of
- 46:02Speaker 6: those countries.
- 46:05Speaker 2: Yes, and that's obviously. You wonder how some of them
- 46:09Speaker 2: may assimilate or require Britain to assimilate to them. I
- 46:15Speaker 2: do not know, Patrick, and it's sort of kind of related,
- 46:19Speaker 2: you know, it's about national identity and things like that.
- 46:21Speaker 2: You've had some councils, like the one in London's Tower Hamlets,
- 46:25Speaker 2: very happy to have Palestinian flags flying everywhere. Now there's
- 46:29Speaker 2: a movement called Operation Raise the Flags. It's raising the
- 46:32Speaker 2: English flag of Saint George. But the Tower Hamlet council
- 46:37Speaker 2: has been removing them. Birmingham also wants them gone. Some
- 46:41Speaker 2: are claiming this is a racist flag. What's the story. Yeah,
- 46:45Speaker 2: so it's not the racist flag.
- 46:47Speaker 6: It's the flag of our country. And if people don't
- 46:49Speaker 6: like that, then in my view, maybe they should look
- 46:51Speaker 6: for somewhere else to live. But the Tower Hamlets Council
- 46:55Speaker 6: has previously had Palestinian flags lining the entire street. In fact,
- 46:59Speaker 6: school children at local schools in Toower Hamlets skipped school
- 47:04Speaker 6: in perfectly condoned by the local authorities to go in
- 47:07Speaker 6: a Tanda pro Palestine.
- 47:09Speaker 1: March a while ago.
- 47:10Speaker 6: But now we're not allowed to have the flag of
- 47:13Speaker 6: Saint George, or indeed the Union flag hanging from lampposts.
- 47:16Speaker 6: They say in case it causes a danger to motoris.
- 47:19Speaker 6: One could fall off and wrap around someone's wind screen.
- 47:22Speaker 6: Apparently the Palestinian flag is immune to that, but only
- 47:25Speaker 6: only the Saint George's.
- 47:26Speaker 1: Flag can do it.
- 47:27Speaker 6: Birmingham, Birmingham, you mentioned there as well. I mean recently
- 47:30Speaker 6: for Pakistani Independence Day, the Birmingham Council lit up the
- 47:33Speaker 6: entire public library in the colors of the Pakistani flag.
- 47:37Speaker 6: But again similar story there. You're not allowed to hoist
- 47:40Speaker 6: the flag of this country just in case it causes
- 47:43Speaker 6: a little bit of a danger. It very much seems
- 47:46Speaker 6: like the flags of other countries are allowed. And that's
- 47:50Speaker 6: all okay. I mean, we had the Pride flag lining
- 47:53Speaker 6: the streets of Oxford Street, which is the busiest shopping
- 47:55Speaker 6: street in Great Britain. We've had that hoisted there the
- 47:58Speaker 6: whole time. But again, the flag of this country seemingly
- 48:02Speaker 6: not allowed by certain councils. But the thing is is
- 48:05Speaker 6: having the opposite effect, Andrew. It just makes people more
- 48:08Speaker 6: inclined to want to do it. And now when I
- 48:09Speaker 6: go outside here there is actually quite a heartwarming thing happening.
- 48:12Speaker 6: I'm seeing the flag of our country just in people's windows,
- 48:15Speaker 6: which you didn't see before. Before the only flag you
- 48:18Speaker 6: would see was the Palestinian flag, which is ridiculous, isn't it.
- 48:21Speaker 6: So there is a fight back.
- 48:23Speaker 2: Yep, man, I think this is a long way to go,
- 48:28Speaker 2: this sort of stuff. Patrick Christie, thanks for your time.
- 48:31Speaker 2: That's it from me. Coming up now, Sherry Maxon and
- 48:34Speaker 2: of course that exclusive interview with Benny Mine. Yeah, good night,
