- 0:00Speaker 1: Welcome to the lake to please.
- 0:06Speaker 2: Thanks for joining us. It's great to have your company.
- 0:08Speaker 2: I'm James Macpherson with the Nekir To Georgio and filling
- 0:11Speaker 2: in for our great mate calib Bond, A wonderful Joe Hildebrand.
- 0:14Speaker 2: How was your weekend, guys?
- 0:15Speaker 3: Fantastic. I went to a Greek christening. I had to
- 0:18Speaker 3: just leave it to pop in here because it's still going. Honestly,
- 0:23Speaker 3: I feel sorry for Persia. Those guys just keep going.
- 0:27Speaker 3: They just go and go and go and go.
- 0:29Speaker 2: How was a Greek christening different to a regular christening?
- 0:33Speaker 3: About six hours? So the service that was went to
- 0:37Speaker 3: Greek Orthodox Church, which I absolutely loved. You would hate it.
- 0:41Speaker 4: It's just jam packed full of icons, nothing but icons.
- 0:44Speaker 2: I would hate it. I'm not really enjoy it.
- 0:45Speaker 3: Maybe you would come on and then they and so
- 0:49Speaker 3: that was at midday. That went for nearly two hours.
- 0:52Speaker 3: And then that was just their service, and then we
- 0:56Speaker 3: came here. Don't want to give away any state secrets,
- 0:58Speaker 3: but came here, recorded quizzical and then went back to
- 1:04Speaker 3: the sort of reception at like four o'clock or something.
- 1:07Speaker 3: It was still going. They were just serving the main
- 1:10Speaker 3: wow and it still had another two hours to go.
- 1:13Speaker 3: You had to dance in a circle for two hours,
- 1:14Speaker 3: holding hands.
- 1:15Speaker 4: Didn't didn't didn't.
- 1:17Speaker 2: I got to find out can you beat that?
- 1:19Speaker 5: For a weekend I went and saw Five. Now I
- 1:21Speaker 5: alluded to this last week. This was the nineties boy band.
- 1:24Speaker 5: I spoke to Joel about this. At least Joe knows
- 1:26Speaker 5: who Five is. You didn't know who Five was, really
- 1:30Speaker 5: great band. So they did this reunion too. I don't
- 1:32Speaker 5: want to waffle on about this for too long, but
- 1:33Speaker 5: they're now in their late forties, a little bit puffed out,
- 1:36Speaker 5: but cutos to them.
- 1:38Speaker 6: You know, they were still busting.
- 1:39Speaker 5: Out those nineties dance moves, you know, with the hats,
- 1:41Speaker 5: so that they were bending down like this.
- 1:43Speaker 2: It was great the family to the Opera House because
- 1:45Speaker 2: none of us had ever been to a performance at
- 1:47Speaker 2: the Sydney Opera House and we saw a brilliant one
- 1:50Speaker 2: man show. I think it was called the Happiest Man
- 1:53Speaker 2: on Earth or the Happiest Man Alive. So it's a
- 1:55Speaker 2: true story about a German jew who went through our Schwitzer,
- 2:00Speaker 2: ended up in Australia, built a great life for himself,
- 2:03Speaker 2: and it was sort of how he'd overcome all of
- 2:05Speaker 2: that tragedy in his early life to live it.
- 2:07Speaker 5: All I can say is I think our individual weekends
- 2:10Speaker 5: tell a lot about our individual personalities on this show
- 2:13Speaker 5: right now they do.
- 2:14Speaker 2: All right, let's get into the program. Here's what's coming
- 2:16Speaker 2: up tonight. The social media ban means young people are
- 2:19Speaker 2: getting less access to news. Is that a bad thing?
- 2:22Speaker 2: And if it is, what should we do about it?
- 2:25Speaker 2: You've heard that expression the lunatics so running the asylum
- 2:27Speaker 2: will in the UK, that's literally happening. Violent psychopaths are
- 2:31Speaker 2: being paid to provide expert advice on how mental patients
- 2:36Speaker 2: should be treated, and a Hollywood film director slams the
- 2:39Speaker 2: classic movie Frankenstein for being transphobic. We'll get to all
- 2:44Speaker 2: of that shortly, but first, a new poll says Angus
- 2:47Speaker 2: Taylor is now the preferred prime minister. The Resolved Political
- 2:51Speaker 2: Monitor poll has the coalition leader on thirty three percent,
- 2:54Speaker 2: leading Albanezi on thirty percent. Angus Taylor spent the past
- 2:58Speaker 2: hour taking questions from Sky News viewers, and my personal
- 3:02Speaker 2: favorite was this question from Brett in Aubrey. Now listen
- 3:05Speaker 2: to what Angus Taylor says, but keep your eye on
- 3:08Speaker 2: Brett's reaction.
- 3:10Speaker 1: I keep hearing you say that we needed to get
- 3:13Speaker 1: rid of net zero. Mate, will you formly withdraw from
- 3:16Speaker 1: the Paris Agreement?
- 3:18Speaker 7: Thanks Brett, Thanks Brett, thanks for the question. Look, we
- 3:21Speaker 7: will get rid of we will get rid of net zero.
- 3:23Speaker 7: We're not proposing to get out of the Paris Agreement because, frankly,
- 3:27Speaker 7: it's not going to change anything we do.
- 3:32Speaker 2: Did you see Brett shaking his head? He was having
- 3:35Speaker 2: none of that. And when our colleague Paul Murray asked
- 3:38Speaker 2: Brett to explain his obvious dissatisfaction, Well, Brett from Aubrey
- 3:42Speaker 2: did not miss.
- 3:43Speaker 1: I just think that actions speak loud of the words, Paul, Mate,
- 3:50Speaker 1: if you're prepared to get rid of that zero, why
- 3:52Speaker 1: not get rid of the agreement?
- 3:55Speaker 2: Telling Australians they're ditching that zero while remaining in an
- 3:58Speaker 2: international treaty that commits ust zero doesn't exactly engender trust sneaker.
- 4:03Speaker 5: No, Brett was very loud about his response to that,
- 4:07Speaker 5: and good on him. And I actually do agree with that.
- 4:10Speaker 5: I mean, Paris requires emissions reduction targets, right, so we're
- 4:14Speaker 5: already down this net zero twenty to fifty pathway down
- 4:17Speaker 5: into the never never. But you've got the Liberal Party
- 4:19Speaker 5: saying no, well, we're going to stay in Paris, but
- 4:22Speaker 5: we're not committed to net zero by twenty fifty. I mean,
- 4:25Speaker 5: if you stay in Paris, is that not signal that
- 4:27Speaker 5: you are then committed to a trying to achieve and
- 4:29Speaker 5: attain these reduction targets. I feel like the Liberal Party
- 4:34Speaker 5: are bit half in half out on this because they're
- 4:37Speaker 5: not climate zealots, are they? Because I say, no, we're
- 4:40Speaker 5: not interested in net zero by twenty fifty. But they're
- 4:43Speaker 5: not necessarily climate deniers either, because they're saying, well, we
- 4:46Speaker 5: need to stay within the Paris agreement. So I almost
- 4:49Speaker 5: feel like is this some sort of a middle road
- 4:51Speaker 5: that the party is opting for, maybe to appease the
- 4:55Speaker 5: till vote and a number of these city seats.
- 4:58Speaker 6: I mean, that's all that I can really put it
- 4:59Speaker 6: down to.
- 5:00Speaker 5: I just don't quite understand why you would bother staying
- 5:02Speaker 5: in Paris if you're not committed to zero twenty fifty.
- 5:05Speaker 3: Well, they're speaking out both sides of their mouths, aren't they.
- 5:07Speaker 3: They're trying to say one thing to one group of
- 5:09Speaker 3: voters and another thing to another group of voters, or
- 5:12Speaker 3: our international treaty partners, but I mean, really anglers tales
- 5:15Speaker 3: just beild the cat, which is we know that these
- 5:17Speaker 3: targets were always going to be unachievable. We know that
- 5:20Speaker 3: we're not going to reach them, and that's pretty much
- 5:22Speaker 3: what he just said. We're just going, you know, we'll
- 5:24Speaker 3: just stay in it because effectively it's meaningless because it's
- 5:27Speaker 3: not binding, and if we don't get there, who gives
- 5:30Speaker 3: our rats? And we're not going to try to get
- 5:34Speaker 3: to net zeit, which.
- 5:34Speaker 2: Makes the question, if it's meaningless, why.
- 5:37Speaker 3: Not withdraw because he can then go but if he
- 5:40Speaker 3: does become Prime minister, go on a little jet setting tour,
- 5:44Speaker 3: hang out with all the other world letters, say oh no, yes,
- 5:46Speaker 3: of course we're still committed to the Powers agreement, and
- 5:48Speaker 3: then come back here and say something completely different to
- 5:51Speaker 3: the voters that it's a bit of a yes, yes,
- 5:52Speaker 3: we're still in the Paris Agreement. Nudge nudge, wig huh, don't.
- 5:56Speaker 4: Worry about that.
- 5:57Speaker 3: And to be honest, this is the sort of thing,
- 6:00Speaker 3: and we saw it from Brett that drives voters absolutely feral.
- 6:04Speaker 3: It makes them absolutely filthy. I was doing a podcast
- 6:07Speaker 3: earlier today with some pretty willing type who I think
- 6:10Speaker 3: it's fair to say all in on the Orange.
- 6:12Speaker 4: They're all in with one nation.
- 6:13Speaker 3: And one of them was just saying to me, just
- 6:15Speaker 3: a normal sort knock about boers. Why can't politicians just
- 6:19Speaker 3: say what they mean? Why can't they just tell us
- 6:22Speaker 3: what's going on? And I think and this is where
- 6:25Speaker 3: Sener right and Senna left politics, like the political class
- 6:29Speaker 3: really lost lost control of people in the sort of
- 6:33Speaker 3: late the nineties and two thousands. I think they thought, oh, well,
- 6:37Speaker 3: it's fine, they can't go anywhere else anyway, we know
- 6:40Speaker 3: what's best, and it's going to be this. It's globalization,
- 6:42Speaker 3: blah blah blah blah, and they and they end up
- 6:44Speaker 3: talking to.
- 6:45Speaker 2: Joe the Liberal Party. They've got political considerations, right, So
- 6:47Speaker 2: if they stay in NIT zero, then they can go
- 6:49Speaker 2: on the ABC and they're not going to get well,
- 6:52Speaker 2: you don't believe in climate change, you're denying that there's
- 6:54Speaker 2: a problem. Oh no, no, we're still part of NIT zero,
- 6:57Speaker 2: we're still part of the Paris Agreement. We're still committed
- 7:00Speaker 2: to trying to reduce emissions. So it sort of quarterizes
- 7:04Speaker 2: them from that criticism. But there's not just political considerations here.
- 7:07Speaker 2: There's a perception problem with the coalition, and the perception
- 7:11Speaker 2: is they say what people want them to hear, but
- 7:14Speaker 2: then they become cowards when given the chance to actually
- 7:17Speaker 2: take action. And I think the perception problem is more
- 7:21Speaker 2: of a risk to the coalition than the political consideration.
- 7:24Speaker 5: Absolutely, and this is exactly why one nation are surging
- 7:27Speaker 5: in the polls right now, because I think that voters
- 7:30Speaker 5: are looking for politicians of conviction and politicians of strength,
- 7:34Speaker 5: and they are not finding that from the two major parties.
- 7:37Speaker 5: And the only one who was saying, hang on a second,
- 7:39Speaker 5: let's pull out of Paris, let's ditch these targets is
- 7:43Speaker 5: Pauline Hanson, and she's speaking honestly to Australian voters. And
- 7:47Speaker 5: that is what the Conservative vote, or very strong part
- 7:51Speaker 5: of the Conservative vote, are looking for.
- 7:53Speaker 6: And you're not going to claw back that Conservative.
- 7:56Speaker 5: Vote if you're half in, half out when it comes
- 7:59Speaker 5: to energy, when it comes to climbate, look, I agree.
- 8:01Speaker 5: I do you know Angus Taylor tonight spoke about having
- 8:04Speaker 5: nuclear in the mix. Fantastic. We didn't see nuclear really
- 8:07Speaker 5: pursued towards the end of the election campaign. It's sort
- 8:10Speaker 5: of all vanished under under Peter Dutton's campaign. So are
- 8:13Speaker 5: we going to now see something with strength and conviction
- 8:16Speaker 5: from the coalition because that's what we need and we
- 8:19Speaker 5: need policies now, sooner rather than later, rather than kicking
- 8:22Speaker 5: it down the track, just like migration, when we speak
- 8:25Speaker 5: about this all the time, where's the number?
- 8:27Speaker 6: Where is it? Where is it?
- 8:29Speaker 5: Put a figure, put put name it and don't be
- 8:31Speaker 5: a coward.
- 8:32Speaker 2: Yeah, let's give some credit to Angus Taylor to come
- 8:34Speaker 2: on Paul Murray's program and take viewer questions for an hour.
- 8:37Speaker 2: It was really refreshing. I thought it was really interesting
- 8:40Speaker 2: and I quite liked a lot of what Angus Taylor
- 8:43Speaker 2: said that Anthony Albanezi, your mate Joe would come on.
- 8:46Speaker 3: For an hour with Paul Murrow's viewers after Paul just
- 8:50Speaker 3: invited him.
- 8:50Speaker 4: I'm sure he's just jumped in, you.
- 8:52Speaker 2: Know, heading in the opposite direction he won.
- 8:56Speaker 6: Harbor.
- 8:56Speaker 3: Well, it's a couple of hours drive from Camber. He
- 8:58Speaker 3: does like to reside in the National capital, so I'm
- 9:01Speaker 3: sure i'll be here just after one am. But it's interesting,
- 9:05Speaker 3: you know, talk about Pauline Hansen can afford to say
- 9:08Speaker 3: whatever she wants, She can afford to be provocative, and
- 9:10Speaker 3: not having to worry about pleasing different cohorts because she
- 9:13Speaker 3: never faces the serious prospect although she's getting closer actually
- 9:17Speaker 3: forming just quickly.
- 9:19Speaker 2: Saw to cut you off. But that's why she's doing
- 9:20Speaker 2: well because she's not worried about trying to please different cohorts.
- 9:24Speaker 2: She's saying what she actually thinks and then enabling Australians.
- 9:28Speaker 3: So once you get into government, then you do end
- 9:30Speaker 3: up having to make compromises, you do end up having
- 9:32Speaker 3: to please different groups.
- 9:33Speaker 2: And as Taylor's not in government.
- 9:35Speaker 4: And that is one of the things.
- 9:36Speaker 3: No, that is true, but I suppose he's behaving more
- 9:39Speaker 3: like a conventional operator. Another thing that costs talk about
- 9:42Speaker 3: nuclear Peter Dutton. The last election was the Chinese community
- 9:47Speaker 3: and there was a sense that the coalition was anti
- 9:52Speaker 3: well by being so stridently anti immigration that it was
- 9:56Speaker 3: actually anti immigrant. And this was a massive reversal of
- 10:00Speaker 3: the result in the Chinese community in twenty nineteen when
- 10:03Speaker 3: Bill Shorten lost the unlosable election, largely because you may remember,
- 10:08Speaker 3: there were those sort of controversial Chinese language campaign ads
- 10:12Speaker 3: that the Libs us but it was very very effective
- 10:15Speaker 3: and the Chinese diaspora swung against labor in a massive way.
- 10:19Speaker 3: Why is this important? Well, Simon Benson from The Australian
- 10:22Speaker 3: has done a bit of an analysis of what's going on,
- 10:26Speaker 3: and it looks like it could be happening again. Now
- 10:30Speaker 3: there are one point five million members of the what
- 10:35Speaker 3: you might call the Chinese diaspora. Chinese Australians have some
- 10:37Speaker 3: links to China or the home country or some Chinese background.
- 10:41Speaker 4: Now apparently we chat, which of.
- 10:43Speaker 3: Course is the Chinese version of Twitter that you know,
- 10:48Speaker 3: most of us would have no idea what's going on,
- 10:50Speaker 3: and it can be a closed circuit's run by the
- 10:52Speaker 3: Commons Party.
- 10:53Speaker 4: But apparently it is going.
- 10:55Speaker 3: Absolutely ballistic because of the negative gearing and capital means
- 11:00Speaker 3: tax changes. Apparently this is just running absolutely hot, and
- 11:05Speaker 3: political operators are monitoring this and thinking, hang on a second,
- 11:10Speaker 3: we could be looking at a rerun of twenty nineteen. Because,
- 11:13Speaker 3: of course, the reason they went against labor in twenty
- 11:16Speaker 3: nineteen is that these are exactly the same proposals that
- 11:19Speaker 3: Bill Shortened took to the election. And these Chinese, this
- 11:25Speaker 3: Chinese cohort is aspirational. They're fleeing the Communist Party. So
- 11:30Speaker 3: these are often people who are wanting to get ahead.
- 11:33Speaker 3: They're in business, they're investing, they're trying to make a future.
- 11:37Speaker 3: We know that migrants generally make huge use of capital
- 11:40Speaker 3: gains and negative gearing because they think that, you know,
- 11:43Speaker 3: bricks and mortar is the only real estates called real
- 11:47Speaker 3: for a reason. It's the only investment that's safeest houses.
- 11:50Speaker 3: And now they're starting to get really alarmed at these changes.
- 11:55Speaker 3: And that means seats like Read and ben Along which
- 11:59Speaker 3: Labor was very lucky to pick up the last couple
- 12:01Speaker 3: of elections in Sydney and Banks as well, and even
- 12:05Speaker 3: Chisholm in Melbourne which is around box Hill, which is
- 12:07Speaker 3: like the biggest Chinese union by country. Mah, this could
- 12:11Speaker 3: be the big swing that turns Anti Albanese into Kiirstarma
- 12:16Speaker 3: and none of us even know about it because it's
- 12:18Speaker 3: all in Mandarin.
- 12:19Speaker 2: You've got to give it to Anthony Albanesi and Jim
- 12:21Speaker 2: Chalmers Denika. I mean, they have managed to do what
- 12:23Speaker 2: they've been talking about for the longest time, and that
- 12:25Speaker 2: is to create social cohesion because they've created a budget
- 12:29Speaker 2: that literally everybody in the country hates. Everybody in the
- 12:33Speaker 2: country is worse off. So they've got social cohesion and
- 12:36Speaker 2: here's the crazy thing to do it. They went and
- 12:39Speaker 2: broke a promise to have everybody hate them and everybody
- 12:42Speaker 2: worse off. What's interesting, Joe, about the Chinese community is,
- 12:46Speaker 2: according to this research, many of them are saying they
- 12:50Speaker 2: are not blaming negative gearing at all for the housing crisis.
- 12:54Speaker 2: They're blaming guess what it is, Danika, Well, migration, Well,
- 12:59Speaker 2: the Chinese community. They are saying that many migrants, yes,
- 13:04Speaker 2: that which is extra which is extraordinary really because labor
- 13:07Speaker 2: prides itself on its migration.
- 13:10Speaker 5: It doesn't it, but it is the only thing right
- 13:12Speaker 5: now that is propping up this Ponzi scheme economy is
- 13:14Speaker 5: migration and the door is firmly open under labor.
- 13:18Speaker 6: Look, migrants are not stupid.
- 13:21Speaker 5: And to your point, Joe, aspiration isn't just confined to
- 13:26Speaker 5: every day as or Australian born citizens, Chinese people and
- 13:30Speaker 5: other migrants. They come here for a better life and
- 13:33Speaker 5: to try and get ahead. And they also said in
- 13:36Speaker 5: this it is very actually a very good article. I
- 13:38Speaker 5: would employ you to read it that the concern is
- 13:42Speaker 5: that the CGT discount would destroy Chinese wealth, that that
- 13:45Speaker 5: is the key issue that they're can concerned about, and
- 13:48Speaker 5: This could be a really good opportunity I think for
- 13:51Speaker 5: the Coalition to try and claw back some of that
- 13:53Speaker 5: Chinese vote. You recall as well the last election when
- 13:56Speaker 5: Jane Hume made that comment that Chinese spies were volunteering
- 14:00Speaker 5: for Labour's campaigning Labor volunteers, and that was.
- 14:05Speaker 6: An absolute disaster.
- 14:07Speaker 5: I think that that was probably the straw that broke
- 14:09Speaker 5: the camel's back.
- 14:10Speaker 2: And Labour needs some spies in the Chinese community to
- 14:13Speaker 2: find out how they can better manage that.
- 14:15Speaker 5: Maybe they should, but you know what, this could be
- 14:18Speaker 5: a really good opportunity for the Coalition to capitalize this
- 14:22Speaker 5: and bring back that vote, because yeah, it doesn't just
- 14:25Speaker 5: affect everyday Australians. These vote and now we're talking about
- 14:28Speaker 5: death taxes as well, so there's tax, tax, tax, it's
- 14:31Speaker 5: all these sneaky little changes that's going to affect every
- 14:34Speaker 5: man and their dog in this country under the guys
- 14:37Speaker 5: of no, we're doing this for our future, when really
- 14:39Speaker 5: it's just a simple ploy for the fact that Labor
- 14:41Speaker 5: spent too much money and now they're trying to cover
- 14:43Speaker 5: their own backsides.
- 14:45Speaker 3: The trick is, though they can't afford to be seen
- 14:47Speaker 3: as anti Margaret and they also can't afford to be
- 14:51Speaker 3: too tough or talk too tough on China, because that
- 14:56Speaker 3: was what hurts Scott Morrison in twenty twenty two. Again,
- 15:00Speaker 3: this is the catch twenty two for the Coalition, something
- 15:03Speaker 3: that you know, Pauline Hanson doesn't have to worry about.
- 15:06Speaker 3: They've got to think about, right, We've got to walk
- 15:08Speaker 3: this fine line here. If they act or big and
- 15:11Speaker 3: belligerent on China, you could turn off those Chinese born
- 15:14Speaker 3: or voters who saw that as an attack on them,
- 15:18Speaker 3: even though it was an attack on the CCPEA. And
- 15:21Speaker 3: so you've got to you know, and again we saw
- 15:23Speaker 3: John Howard take a long time to win back Chinese
- 15:25Speaker 3: voters in Benelong after his comments about you know, too
- 15:29Speaker 3: many Asians being here.
- 15:30Speaker 4: So it is.
- 15:32Speaker 3: One of those things where it's all well and good
- 15:34Speaker 3: to go, you know, you know, get out there, punch
- 15:36Speaker 3: and get out there swinging into the ring, but you
- 15:38Speaker 3: might accidentally knock out someone who's vote you need with
- 15:41Speaker 3: a haymaker.
- 15:41Speaker 5: Yep, that's a very very fair point. Well, I'm going
- 15:44Speaker 5: to ask you a question at home. Apparently it's the
- 15:46Speaker 5: hardest question of our time. What is a woman? Well,
- 15:50Speaker 5: apparently Australia doesn't know if you're up to date with
- 15:52Speaker 5: Giggle versus Tickle the appeal on Friday. But over in
- 15:56Speaker 5: the UK I will say this, they are streets ahead
- 15:59Speaker 5: of us when they when it comes to this. Of course,
- 16:01Speaker 5: there was a Supreme Court decision last year. They seem
- 16:04Speaker 5: to at least know what a woman is. But now
- 16:06Speaker 5: the National Health Service could be flooded with thousands of
- 16:10Speaker 5: lawsuits from female staff over biological men who identify as
- 16:14Speaker 5: women using single sex female only spaces. Now this comes
- 16:19Speaker 5: after an NHS employee in Leeds was successful ensuing health
- 16:23Speaker 5: services bosses this week and then she argued that she
- 16:26Speaker 5: was discriminated against and harassed because transgender colleagues were told
- 16:30Speaker 5: that they were able to use single sex facilities.
- 16:33Speaker 6: This is just absolutely extraordinary.
- 16:35Speaker 5: You know they're meant to be private spaces for women,
- 16:37Speaker 5: but then suddenly you have got a man wearing a
- 16:40Speaker 5: dress saying, well, no, look, I'm a woman. I want
- 16:42Speaker 5: to come into the toilet, I want to come into
- 16:44Speaker 5: the change room. But that's where we're at now right
- 16:46Speaker 5: now around the world, have a look at this statistic.
- 16:49Speaker 5: Ninety seven percent of one hundred and ninety NHS trust
- 16:53Speaker 5: in England with outdated policies permitting transgender biological males to
- 16:58Speaker 5: use women only spaces. Now the problem is is that
- 17:01Speaker 5: the NHS is yet to update its guidelines to reflect
- 17:04Speaker 5: that Supreme Court ruling that I mentioned last year. So
- 17:08Speaker 5: this was when the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that a
- 17:10Speaker 5: woman and sex under the Equality Act exclusively applies to
- 17:14Speaker 5: the biological sex at birth. Well, who would have thought,
- 17:17Speaker 5: But many trusts are still awaiting guidelines from the body.
- 17:20Speaker 5: At least the UK has that we're still under the
- 17:22Speaker 5: old Julia Gillard Sex Discrimination Act here where well male
- 17:26Speaker 5: and female is basically irrelevant, so biological sex is deemed
- 17:31Speaker 5: irrelevant in this country. I thought this was quite interesting.
- 17:35Speaker 5: Over in the UK, you two will recall there was
- 17:37Speaker 5: that nurse Sandy Peggy when she confronted a biological man
- 17:40Speaker 5: who identifies as a woman, a doctor who is now
- 17:43Speaker 5: working in Australia by the way, when this doctor entered
- 17:47Speaker 5: the change rooms and the nurse Sandy Peggy ended up
- 17:50Speaker 5: getting suspended for it has been hauled through the courts
- 17:54Speaker 5: And this is why Giggle versus Tickle that appeal decision
- 17:57Speaker 5: was so important because it actually affects every single one
- 18:01Speaker 5: of us. It affects our ability of freedom of speech.
- 18:04Speaker 5: It affects freedom of expression because if you talk about
- 18:08Speaker 5: this and you dare to say, well, no, a man
- 18:10Speaker 5: can't be in a woman's faces, even though under our
- 18:12Speaker 5: laws you can be, you might just find yourself hold
- 18:16Speaker 5: in front of a court, or like here, flooded with
- 18:18Speaker 5: thousands of lawsuits.
- 18:20Speaker 2: What's really interesting about this particular case in the UK
- 18:23Speaker 2: is that the woman who successfully sued the NHS never
- 18:27Speaker 2: encountered a trans person in a bathroom, never, by our knowledge,
- 18:32Speaker 2: came into contact with a trans person. The argument was,
- 18:35Speaker 2: and this is I think a new argument at least
- 18:37Speaker 2: I've not heard this one before. By allowing trans people
- 18:41Speaker 2: to use female toilets, you are not creating a safe
- 18:45Speaker 2: workplace for women, for Muslim women, or for women who've
- 18:49Speaker 2: got PST PTSD because of male abuse. So her argument
- 18:58Speaker 2: is you have failed in your to provide me with
- 19:01Speaker 2: I feel unsafe, and by allowing this, you've made that possible.
- 19:05Speaker 2: So she's got what is it fifty pounds, twenty five
- 19:09Speaker 2: thousand pounds? What was it it? Twenty five thousand pounds.
- 19:13Speaker 2: She's been awarded and there's now the suggestion that this
- 19:17Speaker 2: may result in numerous cases brought against.
- 19:20Speaker 3: The common law President. Now, so that's that's pretty much
- 19:23Speaker 3: it. It's the same system of law that we inherit.
- 19:25Speaker 2: So it's an interesting argument this you've failed to provide
- 19:28Speaker 2: my safe work.
- 19:29Speaker 4: No brainer.
- 19:30Speaker 3: Again, I think the Giggle versus Tickle our court case
- 19:34Speaker 3: could be a massive pyrrhic victory, a massive own goal,
- 19:37Speaker 3: because it sets up a legislative showdown between Angus Taylor
- 19:41Speaker 3: who said he's going to the Coalition and that's private
- 19:44Speaker 3: Members Bill said they're going to introduce a law to
- 19:47Speaker 3: change the definition. Now, this is something that Albo and
- 19:51Speaker 3: Labor will not want to touch with a barge poll,
- 19:53Speaker 3: especially when you've got one nation on the rise, as
- 19:55Speaker 3: if this is the hill that you want to die
- 19:57Speaker 3: on when you're being attacked for being two PC or
- 19:59Speaker 3: two and so again, this would have been a really
- 20:04Speaker 3: good court case not to win and indeed not to bring.
- 20:07Speaker 3: And I think the wisdom of the wisdom of rox
- 20:12Speaker 3: Antiicle actually bringing this case and the activists who did
- 20:15Speaker 3: it might find that they will regret this move. They
- 20:18Speaker 3: really haven't thought too far ahead, and often these activists aren't, particularly.
- 20:22Speaker 2: Without without getting too off track, just really briefly, what's
- 20:25Speaker 2: your thought as to how labor will handle this.
- 20:28Speaker 3: I think we'll just try to run dead. That's already
- 20:30Speaker 3: had sort of some bizarre noises where it said, oh,
- 20:33Speaker 3: this is you know the coalition. You know they're anti
- 20:37Speaker 3: women or anti trans and they're antimiagrant and blah blah,
- 20:40Speaker 3: which is a really stupid connection to make. And again
- 20:43Speaker 3: we know that just saying oh, you can't say that
- 20:45Speaker 3: because you're racist, or you can't say that because you're
- 20:47Speaker 3: transphobic just makes people absolutely furious because you're not engaging.
- 20:50Speaker 2: But you think that's what they're going to try and
- 20:51Speaker 2: do this.
- 20:53Speaker 3: I think they are just going to want to just
- 20:54Speaker 3: shut it down any way they can and avoid having
- 20:57Speaker 3: any sort of discussion because if they buy into it,
- 21:00Speaker 3: I'll get attacked by the activist left who are too
- 21:01Speaker 3: stupid to know when to shut the hell up. And
- 21:03Speaker 3: they will have all these blue collar workers in regional
- 21:08Speaker 3: and outer suburban Australia who now drifting to one nation.
- 21:14Speaker 4: What do you think they're going to do when they see.
- 21:16Speaker 3: Labor going into bat for the biological value to be
- 21:19Speaker 3: part of the particular this is.
- 21:21Speaker 5: The problem but this is the problem now, isn't it
- 21:23Speaker 5: that this has become a controversial issue. It was never
- 21:26Speaker 5: a controversial issue, but Labor and the left have made
- 21:29Speaker 5: it controversial. It's actually just very very basic biology, but
- 21:33Speaker 5: it's gone to this politicized, warped trans ideology. It's like
- 21:37Speaker 5: a runaway train now into the never never. And I
- 21:40Speaker 5: would argue that a lot of people on the left
- 21:42Speaker 5: are also worried about the erasure of women's rights, and
- 21:45Speaker 5: you're right, Labor are not going to want to touch
- 21:47Speaker 5: this adult. Last year, alexanderk and Matt Canavan tried to
- 21:50Speaker 5: get a bill up to try and restore the definitions
- 21:53Speaker 5: of biological sexes within the Sex Discrimination Act. Labor used
- 21:58Speaker 5: its numbers in the Senate to make sure that the
- 21:59Speaker 5: bill wasn't even read, and then the Minister for Women,
- 22:02Speaker 5: Katie Gallaher, came out and said no, well, it would
- 22:04Speaker 5: be wrong of the Australian government to cause harm. What
- 22:07Speaker 5: about the harm to Australian women, to biological women, to
- 22:10Speaker 5: women's rights.
- 22:11Speaker 6: They don't want to.
- 22:12Speaker 5: Touch this issue because the left, the left all about
- 22:16Speaker 5: diversity and tolerance.
- 22:17Speaker 6: That's their motto.
- 22:18Speaker 2: If you want to know how crazy this whole discussion
- 22:21Speaker 2: is getting In the United States, a film director has
- 22:25Speaker 2: said that the movie Frankenstein is problematic and transphobic. Now
- 22:31Speaker 2: let me show you a clip from the nineteen thirty
- 22:33Speaker 2: one version of said movie and see if you can
- 22:36Speaker 2: spot the transphobia's.
- 22:41Speaker 4: Life the name of God, I.
- 22:51Speaker 1: Know what it'd like to be gone.
- 22:55Speaker 2: I'm not spotting it either, But let me read for
- 22:57Speaker 2: you from American film director Jane shut and Brunn. She
- 23:01Speaker 2: herself is described as a non binary director. She says,
- 23:05Speaker 2: this image of the trans monster kept coming up, whether
- 23:09Speaker 2: that be Norman Bates or Buffalo Bill or Frankenstein as
- 23:12Speaker 2: a constructed body, and there was this lineage of trans
- 23:15Speaker 2: people having really complicated feelings about these movies. In one sense,
- 23:20Speaker 2: those are the places where we saw representations that felt
- 23:23Speaker 2: familiar or comforting in some way to their own experiences.
- 23:27Speaker 2: But also those movies are super effing transphobic and Problematic's.
- 23:33Speaker 3: Saying that trans people watched sides of Alowds with thought, Oh,
- 23:36Speaker 3: Buffalo Bill, finally.
- 23:38Speaker 2: Character it seems like a bit of an own gold.
- 23:42Speaker 3: All the amazing thing is And again you might be
- 23:45Speaker 3: thinking if you're playing at home, but hang on, Frankenstein.
- 23:49Speaker 3: Frankenstein doesn't go around wearing a dress or pretending to
- 23:51Speaker 3: be because Frankenstein is a constructed body. That means he
- 23:58Speaker 3: is trans, and therefore his persecution.
- 24:02Speaker 4: Is transphobic.
- 24:04Speaker 2: Correct, that's the argument.
- 24:05Speaker 3: So never mind the fact that you are desecrating the
- 24:09Speaker 3: human remains and digging up corpses from a grave site.
- 24:12Speaker 3: Never by the fact that you are playing god. Never
- 24:15Speaker 3: mind the fact that you've unleashed a murderous, rampaging monster
- 24:20Speaker 3: into your community. The problem with frank inside is that
- 24:24Speaker 3: it's transphobic.
- 24:25Speaker 2: And this is surely, after everything you just said. That's
- 24:28Speaker 2: where they might want to rethink the analogy because it
- 24:30Speaker 2: doesn't work as well as.
- 24:31Speaker 6: She just doesn't. No, look at Nicol James.
- 24:33Speaker 5: I actually tuned out as soon as you told me
- 24:35Speaker 5: that she was a non binary queer director, and.
- 24:37Speaker 6: I thought, oh, well, yes she is. Of course she's.
- 24:40Speaker 2: When someone's got pronouns in their process, it's.
- 24:42Speaker 6: Like, yeah, how much she's prob.
- 24:43Speaker 5: I don't know what's am I misgendering her now by
- 24:46Speaker 5: calling her she I don't, I don't.
- 24:47Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 24:48Speaker 6: God, you she might think I'm I'm transfi.
- 24:50Speaker 4: But I don't think she'll be doing the next Independence Day.
- 24:53Speaker 6: No, no, look I don't think so.
- 24:54Speaker 5: You know, just when you thought it couldn't get any
- 24:57Speaker 5: more ridiculous, it just does. And and it's like the
- 25:00Speaker 5: Left just want to latch onto anything to try and
- 25:03Speaker 5: feel some meaning in their own lives.
- 25:05Speaker 6: You know what's going to be next.
- 25:06Speaker 5: I mean, they're going after now Frankenstein for being transphobic.
- 25:10Speaker 6: You know, it's it's let's just.
- 25:12Speaker 5: Latch onto something so I feel better about myself, myself clothing.
- 25:16Speaker 2: As always think there's a subplot here, right, oh way,
- 25:19Speaker 2: This particular film director has got a new film which
- 25:23Speaker 2: was rejected by every Hollywood studio. I can't imagine why that.
- 25:26Speaker 2: The film is called Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Meaesma.
- 25:31Speaker 2: I can't imagine why Hollywood stud studios didn't want to
- 25:33Speaker 2: touch it.
- 25:33Speaker 6: It's about asthma.
- 25:34Speaker 4: It takes a lot of boxing, it's too much.
- 25:37Speaker 2: To explain, but it's about a trans killer and the
- 25:40Speaker 2: audience ends up sort of siding with the trans killer.
- 25:43Speaker 2: So she's trying to promote that movie. Sounds like I
- 25:45Speaker 2: wonder if the Frankenstein comment.
- 25:47Speaker 4: Of the movies was the problem bad thing. It's I'm soaken.
- 25:51Speaker 2: The whole thing is very problem.
- 25:52Speaker 3: I will just mention it because I'm just so desperately
- 25:54Speaker 3: trying to get this to catch fire.
- 25:56Speaker 4: I'm trying to make fetch happen, and isn't happening.
- 25:58Speaker 3: But it's what I call the our rage Tartest, which
- 26:01Speaker 3: is where as the world gets better and better and
- 26:03Speaker 3: more and more progressive, solve more and more problems, you've
- 26:06Speaker 3: still got this kind of activist element that still has
- 26:10Speaker 3: to be outraged about something they've got less and less
- 26:13Speaker 3: to be outraged about. So it's like the tartess in
- 26:16Speaker 3: Doctor Who, where you've got to cramp all of this
- 26:18Speaker 3: outrage into a source of outrage there's.
- 26:21Speaker 4: Actually teeny tiny and only effects a teeny tiny bit
- 26:24Speaker 4: of people, and even then is it really a teeny
- 26:26Speaker 4: kind problem? And so you suddenly find yourself Frank is transforming,
- 26:31Speaker 4: this is terrible. How can I live like this? We've
- 26:33Speaker 4: got to take to the streets and then you look
- 26:35Speaker 4: like an idiot. Anyway.
- 26:37Speaker 3: One thing that is very interesting that has popped along
- 26:41Speaker 3: today is that the cultural Marxists that The Conversation have
- 26:45Speaker 3: found that the social media band that News Corp patriotically
- 26:49Speaker 3: and courageously crusaded for and one got the PM and
- 26:54Speaker 3: a couple of states to ban social media for kids
- 26:57Speaker 3: for children under the age of sixteen. Well, now the
- 27:00Speaker 3: Conversation has said force for shame. Australian teens impacted by
- 27:07Speaker 3: the social media band are getting less news. And this
- 27:11Speaker 3: is from research but is an interesting one. So what
- 27:16Speaker 3: they are saying, and it's particularly those who say they
- 27:19Speaker 3: have been quote unquote significantly impacted by the band. So
- 27:23Speaker 3: I think we're already getting a bit rubbery. There's a
- 27:25Speaker 3: couple of words doing a lot of heavy lifting. But
- 27:27Speaker 3: they are saying they are getting less news. Well, yeah,
- 27:33Speaker 3: because they were getting all their news from social media
- 27:36Speaker 3: in the first place, and that was part of the problem,
- 27:38Speaker 3: because they were being pumped full of divisive algorithms that
- 27:42Speaker 3: were basically incentivized to make them conflicted, distressed, angst ridden,
- 27:50Speaker 3: or just pummel them with one particular side of a
- 27:52Speaker 3: story because they knew that was the thing that they
- 27:54Speaker 3: already agreed with. So I would actually say no news.
- 27:58Speaker 3: They say good no news, good news. I would actually say,
- 28:02Speaker 3: in this case, despite wanting everyone to read all the
- 28:04Speaker 3: news all the time, no news.
- 28:06Speaker 4: Is better than fake news.
- 28:09Speaker 3: Or news that is just pumped through an algorithm designed
- 28:12Speaker 3: to either reinforce all your existing biases or make you
- 28:16Speaker 3: angry and anxious about something you don't have to be
- 28:17Speaker 3: angry and anxious about.
- 28:18Speaker 2: I've got to say I'm kind of sympathetic to your
- 28:21Speaker 2: view on this one. God, I know, I feel bad.
- 28:25Speaker 2: I promise it will never happen again, But yeah, I
- 28:28Speaker 2: find it difficult to feel upset that young people aren't
- 28:31Speaker 2: getting their news from TikTok.
- 28:33Speaker 4: Yes, that's good, no CCP propaganda.
- 28:35Speaker 5: Yeah, But I mean I would argue as well, though,
- 28:38Speaker 5: that adults get their news from TikTok, from Instagram, from
- 28:41Speaker 5: other forms of social media.
- 28:43Speaker 6: So I mean that's the way it is.
- 28:44Speaker 5: People want news fast, so they want news quick and
- 28:47Speaker 5: they see it pop up on their phones breaking news.
- 28:49Speaker 5: So this, you know, Anthony Aarberesi has done x Y
- 28:52Speaker 5: and children easier to indoctrinate than adults, I do agree,
- 28:55Speaker 5: But I mean they've still got to use social media
- 28:57Speaker 5: even when they grow up.
- 28:58Speaker 6: Are they not to try and get their news?
- 28:59Speaker 2: I was thinking about that, right, So I'm thinking, Okay,
- 29:02Speaker 2: when I grew up, we didn't have social media. We
- 29:04Speaker 2: didn't have electricity. But we got our news sitting at
- 29:09Speaker 2: the dinner table, yeah, talking to parents, and they told
- 29:12Speaker 2: us what was happening, and they told us why it
- 29:14Speaker 2: was happening and what we should.
- 29:15Speaker 5: Think about six o'clock news. They didn't sit around watching
- 29:17Speaker 5: the six o'clock news.
- 29:18Speaker 2: I didn't really pay attention to that. It was more
- 29:20Speaker 2: the discussion. Okay, Well, my point is that families sort
- 29:23Speaker 2: of inculcated their kids. And you can call that propaganda,
- 29:25Speaker 2: but that's a much better propaganda because that's your family
- 29:28Speaker 2: rather than your kids. Exactly. It's some Russian bot which
- 29:32Speaker 2: matters a lot more than any other organization. So but
- 29:35Speaker 2: we don't have that typically anymore.
- 29:38Speaker 5: Well, okay, look, I actually think it's a worry that
- 29:41Speaker 5: kids are not getting news. To be honest, I think
- 29:43Speaker 5: that kids need to be able to make a judgment
- 29:46Speaker 5: on world issues, and I think that news is a
- 29:49Speaker 5: really important part of the democratic process. As part of
- 29:52Speaker 5: the research that was cited in this article, it says
- 29:54Speaker 5: that news engagement makes young people feel knowledgeable, and I
- 29:58Speaker 5: would agree that and more capable of responding to issues,
- 30:02Speaker 5: which I think would absolutely help them later in life
- 30:04Speaker 5: and as they move on into high school.
- 30:06Speaker 6: And into university.
- 30:08Speaker 5: It also says that the more engaged young people are,
- 30:10Speaker 5: the more likely they are to be involved in community
- 30:12Speaker 5: and social issues, and.
- 30:14Speaker 6: I would absolutely hang on but no.
- 30:18Speaker 5: But I think that it's good for children to be
- 30:20Speaker 5: able to make and inform judgment on things, so that
- 30:22Speaker 5: when they do enter the classrooms, they are able to
- 30:25Speaker 5: filter the information they're getting from the woke liberal teachers,
- 30:29Speaker 5: which we have seen in schools and in universities for
- 30:32Speaker 5: that matter, and they're able to make an informed judgment
- 30:34Speaker 5: because they have armed themselves with the.
- 30:36Speaker 6: Knowledge as they've grown up and.
- 30:38Speaker 5: They've made that research. I think that news is very,
- 30:42Speaker 5: very important. I do agree though, that there is a
- 30:44Speaker 5: lot of fake news out there, but I don't think
- 30:47Speaker 5: that exposing children at a young age to news is
- 30:51Speaker 5: a problem.
- 30:52Speaker 3: I don't think it's a problem as long as they're
- 30:54Speaker 3: reading stuff from a respectable news outlet that has obligates
- 31:00Speaker 3: to report something resembling the truth. I think when they're
- 31:03Speaker 3: just getting it, it's like pummeling them with, you know,
- 31:07Speaker 3: a virus when they've got no immunity. It's like if
- 31:09Speaker 3: they're just going to see the first thing, and that's
- 31:11Speaker 3: why you know, they see the climate change stuff and
- 31:14Speaker 3: they think, oh my god, the world's got.
- 31:15Speaker 6: To learn that's it.
- 31:16Speaker 5: They're being infected with the woke mind virus at the
- 31:19Speaker 5: moment by all this knowledge. That's why I just think
- 31:21Speaker 5: they can arm themselves with a proper knowledge, then it
- 31:23Speaker 5: would be better.
- 31:23Speaker 2: Maybe they're better off getting their news from social media
- 31:26Speaker 2: rather than from their school teachers. Because in the UK,
- 31:28Speaker 2: again we've got school children being taught that black people
- 31:33Speaker 2: cannot be racist towards white people. This is part of
- 31:36Speaker 2: a push to make schools anti racist. And so let
- 31:41Speaker 2: me quote to you from some of the teaching material
- 31:44Speaker 2: that's been provided to schools.
- 31:46Speaker 4: Give us a few FAQs.
- 31:47Speaker 2: Yes, so teachers have been advised if a student asks,
- 31:52Speaker 2: can a black person be racist towards a white person?
- 31:54Speaker 2: Or what about when a black person is racist towards
- 31:56Speaker 2: a white person, the suggested teacher response is, and I quote,
- 32:01Speaker 2: black people can be racially prejudiced towards a white person,
- 32:03Speaker 2: which is wrong and totally unacceptable. However, that's not racism.
- 32:07Speaker 2: Racism is racial prejudice plus power. In the UK, white
- 32:11Speaker 2: people hold the cultural power. Tell that to Sidik Khan,
- 32:14Speaker 2: so they are more likely to be the judge, head teacher, boss,
- 32:18Speaker 2: prime minister, etc. Tell that to Kimmi Badnock. This means
- 32:21Speaker 2: that white people's racial prejudice can negatively affect the lives
- 32:25Speaker 2: of people of color. Would you be happy about your
- 32:29Speaker 2: kids being told that in school? They're also told that
- 32:32Speaker 2: if they're white, they have white privilege, and they should
- 32:35Speaker 2: constantly evaluate that and think of ways that they can
- 32:38Speaker 2: make the lives of colored people better because as whites,
- 32:41Speaker 2: they've got such an advantage.
- 32:43Speaker 5: I mean, I just spoke about being infected with a
- 32:45Speaker 5: woke mind virus a private example.
- 32:47Speaker 6: Here we go again.
- 32:48Speaker 5: It's this institutionalized anti white hatred that's breeding and a
- 32:53Speaker 5: whole new generation of self lovers.
- 32:55Speaker 6: And this is why culture wars matter.
- 32:58Speaker 5: And I know this is a UK example, but it's
- 33:00Speaker 5: the same issue here. This is why the culture wars
- 33:02Speaker 5: matter because it is literally breeding this next generation to
- 33:06Speaker 5: hate their countries, think that they're the problem, that they
- 33:10Speaker 5: need to apologize for something that they're less than others.
- 33:14Speaker 5: Kids should be taught manners, good behavior, kindness, not being
- 33:19Speaker 5: told you have.
- 33:20Speaker 6: To be divided by the color of your skin.
- 33:23Speaker 5: And that is what we're seeing here from this coalition
- 33:27Speaker 5: of schools I just again, it's this brainwashing and we've
- 33:32Speaker 5: seen it here in Australia as well.
- 33:33Speaker 3: Yeah, well, look, I think they haven't really quite thought
- 33:36Speaker 3: this through because I think it is outrageous telling black
- 33:39Speaker 3: people that they can't be racist, because I believe that
- 33:42Speaker 3: black people can be whatever they want.
- 33:45Speaker 4: That's how Danna say you can't be racist? Crimply their dreams.
- 33:49Speaker 4: What if there's a little black fire, a little black girl,
- 33:52Speaker 4: it says daddy. When I grow up, I just want
- 33:54Speaker 4: to be racist. I just want to be as racist
- 33:56Speaker 4: as those racist white bastards were to me. Please just
- 34:00Speaker 4: let me be racist.
- 34:01Speaker 3: And a white liberal mom called Karen says, I'm no, sorry,
- 34:04Speaker 3: I'm afraid it's structurally impossible for you to be racist
- 34:07Speaker 3: because of the patriarchal hegemony that exists within the current
- 34:11Speaker 3: capo neoliberal system.
- 34:12Speaker 2: So anyway, it's not the argument I was expecting, but
- 34:17Speaker 2: it's actually a pretty good.
- 34:18Speaker 4: One, thank you very much.
- 34:19Speaker 3: Yeah, out, how dare you tell black people what they
- 34:22Speaker 3: can and can't be?
- 34:23Speaker 4: You racist?
- 34:24Speaker 2: We woul in the UK tell us a h.
- 34:26Speaker 3: And again you just would not believe it's on the
- 34:28Speaker 3: same planet here, But in the NHS, which has come.
- 34:33Speaker 4: Up quite a bit.
- 34:33Speaker 3: Remember the good old days with the NHS let men
- 34:36Speaker 3: in the women's toilets. I love how that is now
- 34:38Speaker 3: the sort of outdated, old fashioned concept. Well, now they
- 34:41Speaker 3: are letting actual psychiatric killers provide advice on how patients
- 34:50Speaker 3: should be treated. Okay, psychiatric offenders have been held up
- 34:55Speaker 3: as quoe unquote patient experts by trusts NHS trust and
- 35:00Speaker 3: they are patients quote unquote who have either killed after
- 35:03Speaker 3: being discharged from hospital or have advised on patient care
- 35:07Speaker 3: despite already having killed people. Now, I'm not sure what
- 35:12Speaker 3: you're looking for in a bedside manner from a therapist,
- 35:16Speaker 3: a psychologist or a shrink, but I'm pretty much kind
- 35:21Speaker 3: of as a baseline, I want someone who you know
- 35:23Speaker 3: isn't going to stop mid session and say, please, God,
- 35:27Speaker 3: don't let me kill again.
- 35:28Speaker 5: Well, apparently, Joe, that they're considered experts by experience and
- 35:33Speaker 5: be engaged to advise trusts on patient care as an
- 35:36Speaker 5: equal partner with the doctor.
- 35:38Speaker 3: Have lived experience of killing, lived killing, that's their experience killing.
- 35:42Speaker 6: Literally.
- 35:43Speaker 2: Do you know what's funny is some of these people
- 35:45Speaker 2: have put in their LinkedIn bios expert advisor to the
- 35:49Speaker 2: National System on Patient Care so they've really gone to
- 35:54Speaker 2: temple this The lunatics really are running the asylum. All right,
- 35:57Speaker 2: We're going to go to a break. When we come back,
- 35:59Speaker 2: we'll have a look at what's making headlines tomorrow. Some
- 36:02Speaker 2: great stories on the front pages of tomorrow's papers, but
- 36:05Speaker 2: you get them all here first right after the break. Well,
- 36:14Speaker 2: welcome back to the program. Let's take a look at
- 36:16Speaker 2: what's making headlines tomorrow, and Danika, the front page of
- 36:19Speaker 2: The Australian has Jim Charmers in all sorts of trouble.
- 36:22Speaker 6: Yes it does.
- 36:22Speaker 5: The headline for the olds labor stamps all over trust
- 36:27Speaker 5: business and families across the country face the prospect of
- 36:30Speaker 5: a surprise stamp duty bill if they are forced to
- 36:33Speaker 5: restructure their trusts in the wake of Anthony Arbernezi and
- 36:36Speaker 5: Jim Charmers tax changes, as a multi billion dollar fight
- 36:40Speaker 5: looms over the revenue with the States, The Queensland Treasurer
- 36:43Speaker 5: David Jenetski told The Australian he was waiting on the
- 36:46Speaker 5: Commonwealth to make further decisions on the trust tax changes,
- 36:49Speaker 5: given that laws in his state would force stamp duties
- 36:52Speaker 5: to be paid on some transactions. The Treasurer announced last
- 36:56Speaker 5: week that the vast majority of trusts would be taxed differently,
- 36:59Speaker 5: including a new minimum thirty percent tax on distributions, as
- 37:02Speaker 5: well as a minimum thirty percent tax on capital gains.
- 37:06Speaker 6: Tax tax, tax, tax, tax, tax.
- 37:08Speaker 5: Is all I read, just then tax, tax, tax, And
- 37:10Speaker 5: we're having this argument.
- 37:11Speaker 6: You know, is it a death tax? Is it not
- 37:13Speaker 6: a death tax?
- 37:14Speaker 5: Well, clearly it is a death tax, and yet another
- 37:17Speaker 5: example of how you're being punished for the fact that
- 37:20Speaker 5: labor has spent too much money, record spending, and now
- 37:23Speaker 5: it's trying to save its own backside death tax.
- 37:26Speaker 2: Is this a death of labor?
- 37:28Speaker 4: It's pretty bad. I think they look they think that they're.
- 37:31Speaker 3: Going to wear a bit of short term pain, but
- 37:33Speaker 3: ultimately they will put the coalition and or one nation
- 37:38Speaker 3: in a weaker position at the next election when they
- 37:40Speaker 3: have to argue.
- 37:41Speaker 4: For reinstating these perks.
- 37:44Speaker 3: If I imagine how they that's how they'd categorize them,
- 37:48Speaker 3: or benefits for investors and home second home buyers. But
- 37:56Speaker 3: I've just got a feeling that this is got a
- 38:00Speaker 3: bit out of This is a backburning operation. It's got
- 38:02Speaker 3: a bit out of control. I don't think they anticipated
- 38:06Speaker 3: just how widespread and ferocious the opposition. The opposition would
- 38:10Speaker 3: be I mean we are as in the number of
- 38:12Speaker 3: people opposing it. I mean, you had news poll I'm
- 38:14Speaker 3: not really worried about the preferred PM Angus Taylor, Anthony Alberanezi.
- 38:18Speaker 3: We had news polls saying that fifty one percent or
- 38:20Speaker 3: fifty two percent of people I think said that they
- 38:22Speaker 3: would be worse off compared to just fourteen or something
- 38:26Speaker 3: they said that they'd be better off under the changes.
- 38:29Speaker 3: I mean, that's just maths. That's that's just arithmetic. And
- 38:33Speaker 3: the reason why people didn't care about the Stage three
- 38:37Speaker 3: tax cuts is because everyone off better off. And so
- 38:40Speaker 3: of course I don't care if you're lied, if you
- 38:41Speaker 3: giving me money, yeah, lie all you want. But they clearly,
- 38:44Speaker 3: I don't think, haven't thought through all of the potential
- 38:49Speaker 3: repercussions of what they're doing and the ways that might
- 38:52Speaker 3: be hit. And again, it just doesn't make economic sense.
- 38:54Speaker 3: It raises it creates seventy five thousand homes of first
- 38:58Speaker 3: home buyers over ten years. It's not seven five hundred
- 39:03Speaker 3: a year against the target of one point two million
- 39:06Speaker 3: that you're meant to achieve in the next five years.
- 39:10Speaker 5: And also and also the budget also suggested Joe as
- 39:13Speaker 5: well that supply of homes would be less.
- 39:17Speaker 3: Will reduce supply thirty five thousand directs which will then
- 39:21Speaker 3: have to be made up for by other policies. So
- 39:24Speaker 3: you need other policies to increase the amount of housing
- 39:30Speaker 3: in the middle of a housing crisis to counteract the
- 39:33Speaker 3: decrease in the supply of housing that your signature policy
- 39:37Speaker 3: will produce. And even then, of the fewer houses that
- 39:41Speaker 3: that policy produces, only you know, fewer than ten thousand
- 39:46Speaker 3: a year are expected to be picked up by the people.
- 39:49Speaker 4: Exactly trying to help.
- 39:51Speaker 5: It's just nonsense. For it's a complete faster of a budget.
- 39:53Speaker 5: It's a shocker. Also on the front page. If you
- 39:56Speaker 5: don't like Australia, leave that's from Frank Lowie, the billionaire
- 39:59Speaker 5: busines biness and Holocaust survivor. So Frank Lowe has previously
- 40:03Speaker 5: experienced violent anti semitism in anti Semitism in his adopted country,
- 40:08Speaker 5: once when a bomb exploded at the Israeli Consulate in
- 40:11Speaker 5: Westfield Towers where he had his office, and again as
- 40:14Speaker 5: another exploded at the Hokoa Club in Bondai where he
- 40:18Speaker 5: was president, but nothing prepared him for the massacre of
- 40:20Speaker 5: fifteen people at Bondai. I couldn't believe that this is
- 40:22Speaker 5: happening to Australia. I used to go to Bondai Beach.
- 40:25Speaker 5: Change can happen the Westfield shopping said to founder insists
- 40:28Speaker 5: in a powerful submission he just handed to the Anti
- 40:30Speaker 5: Semitism Royal Commission. But he says it will require the
- 40:33Speaker 5: same kind of cultural shift that saw ethnic divisions in
- 40:36Speaker 5: Australian soccer transformed into loyalty in this country. And look,
- 40:40Speaker 5: I think he actually raises a very very good point here.
- 40:43Speaker 5: It is about loyalty to the country, and unfortunately, we've
- 40:46Speaker 5: said some people who've come here, some who hate us,
- 40:48Speaker 5: some who hate our values, and some who have no
- 40:50Speaker 5: interest in assimilarly assimilating, and they are not loyal to
- 40:54Speaker 5: this country.
- 40:54Speaker 2: The other things Frank Lowe talks about in this article,
- 40:56Speaker 2: which I think will resonate with readers, is how much
- 40:59Speaker 2: he feels the com has changed since he came here.
- 41:02Speaker 2: And I think that is a feeling that's being felt
- 41:05Speaker 2: widely right around the community that things are not like
- 41:08Speaker 2: they used to be in this country. And we're not
- 41:10Speaker 2: saying that for the better.
- 41:12Speaker 4: Yeah, that's right.
- 41:12Speaker 3: I think if you get the existing undercurrent of anti
- 41:15Speaker 3: Semitism that always sort of lingers sadly in pretty much
- 41:19Speaker 3: any society, but among very few people. But then you
- 41:21Speaker 3: wrap that with the legitimacy of a cause like pro
- 41:24Speaker 3: Palestine anti Israel, Suddenly everyone, as the ABC might say
- 41:29Speaker 3: about one nation it legitimizes, were being able to come
- 41:32Speaker 3: out and just voice their their worst and vilest inner thoughts. Anyway,
- 41:38Speaker 3: I've been forced to read out the front page of
- 41:40Speaker 3: Theoria Mail tonight by my beloved friends James and Danny.
- 41:44Speaker 2: Joe is not making that up. We actually talked before
- 41:46Speaker 2: the show and we said, Joe, we can get you
- 41:48Speaker 2: to do the career.
- 41:49Speaker 4: As you're kicking the shit out of your mate Albow,
- 41:51Speaker 4: don't you do this one?
- 41:52Speaker 2: Take it away, Joe.
- 41:53Speaker 3: Anyway, my very good friend josh An Rahan, great bloke,
- 41:56Speaker 3: social media attacks PM over his tax grabs. Elbow roasts
- 42:00Speaker 3: turn viral. Josh Hanrahan very handsome man, has to be said.
- 42:05Speaker 3: Prime Minister Anthony Alberanezi has become the butt of jokes
- 42:07Speaker 3: nationwide with an explosion of memes or not the memes
- 42:11Speaker 3: from small businesses claiming he has appointed himself a quote
- 42:15Speaker 3: forty seven percent silent partner via the capital gains tax
- 42:19Speaker 3: changes in the budget and just a harkback though it's
- 42:24Speaker 3: the CGT stuff that is really killing it. It's not
- 42:27Speaker 3: really even the negative gearing, and it's not even people
- 42:30Speaker 3: are saying, well, if it's just on property that you're
- 42:32Speaker 3: trying to free up, why are you doubling the capital
- 42:35Speaker 3: gains tax on everything else? And there's other side of saying.
- 42:39Speaker 3: There are young people who are saying, I realized I
- 42:41Speaker 3: would never be able to get a home, and so
- 42:43Speaker 3: I've invested my money in bitcoin, NFT or you know
- 42:47Speaker 3: crap that I don't understand because I'm young. I'm old
- 42:50Speaker 3: and they're young, or you know, or shares or whatever.
- 42:53Speaker 3: And now the government that wouldn't give me an affordable
- 42:57Speaker 3: home is smashing me up for the other invest that
- 43:00Speaker 3: I made that I couldn't because I couldn't get that home.
- 43:03Speaker 4: You know, what do you do? Like, what are you
- 43:05Speaker 4: doing to me?
- 43:06Speaker 2: Just just on the Career Mail article about memes going
- 43:08Speaker 2: viral making fun of elbow, do you remember when Anthony
- 43:11Speaker 2: Albanezi got really upset in the media conference talking about
- 43:14Speaker 2: you know, it's not right that people are making funny
- 43:16Speaker 2: memes of me.
- 43:17Speaker 5: Oh that's right, very sedative man with the glass draw
- 43:19Speaker 5: I do remember that.
- 43:20Speaker 2: He will not be happy about this. Let's go to
- 43:22Speaker 2: the front page of tomorrow's Herald Son. They've got a
- 43:25Speaker 2: big picture of Scott Penalby there. Who's overtaking my hero
- 43:28Speaker 2: Brent Harvey's record number of games for the AFL. So
- 43:31Speaker 2: won't talk about that, but an interesting story down in
- 43:35Speaker 2: the bottom corner. Thirty seven permits to sell cup of coffee.
- 43:39Speaker 2: Business leaders have warned that excessive red tape and regulatory
- 43:43Speaker 2: costs are holding back Victorian businesses. A Business Council Australia
- 43:47Speaker 2: said a Victorian business needed thirty seven different licenses to
- 43:51Speaker 2: pour a cup of coffee, compared to twenty five in
- 43:53Speaker 2: New South Wales, and there were fifteen different definitions of
- 43:56Speaker 2: a small business Nationwide. Leaders have worn regulatory costs need
- 44:01Speaker 2: to be cut by at least twenty five percent to
- 44:04Speaker 2: help manufacturing and further investment and innovation. Thirty seven different licenses,
- 44:10Speaker 2: my goodness, to make a flat white. You've got to
- 44:13Speaker 2: be kidding me.
- 44:14Speaker 5: Yeah, but you know what, and I've said this before,
- 44:17Speaker 5: why would you want to go into business right now.
- 44:19Speaker 6: In this country, when you are.
- 44:20Speaker 5: Surrounded by red tape left, right, right and center right
- 44:24Speaker 5: now and you smashed by or else, you.
- 44:28Speaker 3: Should only have to have twenty five licenses.
- 44:32Speaker 5: Let's have a quick look at the advertiser. This is
- 44:34Speaker 5: a fascinating story. Possum Tragics is the headline. A Possum
- 44:37Speaker 5: Park protester threatened to reveal the home address of Peter
- 44:40Speaker 5: Malanawskus in an extreme act over the felling of trees
- 44:44Speaker 5: for the revamped North Adelaide golf course. Police are now
- 44:47Speaker 5: monitoring social media activity as protest organizer and Adelaide Park's
- 44:51Speaker 5: Land Association president Matt Monty apologized to the premiere for
- 44:55Speaker 5: the intimidating message.
- 44:57Speaker 6: Well there you go, all over fell trees. Would you believe?
- 45:01Speaker 2: Yeah, you would want to apologize for threatening because.
- 45:05Speaker 5: I was so dumb he left, honestly, Oh my goodness.
- 45:10Speaker 3: Anyway, let's go to the Gold Coast bulletin now, and
- 45:13Speaker 3: this is for anyone who's been to the Gold Coast
- 45:17Speaker 3: city that says yes, And I'm pretty sure you know
- 45:21Speaker 3: if you've traveled to the coast the Goldie in a
- 45:24Speaker 3: younger man's lifetime, that that's an experience you would have
- 45:28Speaker 3: had quite often.
- 45:30Speaker 5: Anyway, speaking from previous experience there, well, not as.
- 45:33Speaker 3: Much experience as I would have liked anyway. Gold This
- 45:38Speaker 3: is Gold Coast new brand revealed City that Says Yes.
- 45:43Speaker 3: The Gold Coast will sell itself as the city that
- 45:45Speaker 3: says yes if you're picking up on a thing, after
- 45:47Speaker 3: spending a year and a half researching the region's identity.
- 45:51Speaker 3: The new slogan has yet to be presented a council,
- 45:53Speaker 3: but if approved, will mark the end to the city
- 45:56Speaker 3: being known as the Glitter Strip. Mayor Tom Tate revealed
- 46:00Speaker 3: the new catchphrase, which Grand Gold Coast has been working
- 46:03Speaker 3: on since early twenty twenty five, at the recent launch
- 46:06Speaker 3: of Blues on Broadbeach. This is just I love how
- 46:11Speaker 3: it's like we've got to spend you know, ten thousand
- 46:14Speaker 3: dollars however, many thousands of dollars in a year and
- 46:16Speaker 3: a half to find out what we really are.
- 46:18Speaker 5: Yeah, but I'm sorry, but I just I just there
- 46:20Speaker 5: was after you said that, I was like, there's too
- 46:22Speaker 5: many sexual connotations now in half the coll up your data.
- 46:27Speaker 6: Yes you're a europe Yes, that's all I can.
- 46:29Speaker 4: Think about now, viewers.
- 46:31Speaker 3: You know, I think also the surface paradise will now
- 46:33Speaker 3: be renamed I do anni.
- 46:36Speaker 2: I think that's the perfect time to go to an
- 46:38Speaker 2: aad break. When we come back, we've got tworking politicians
- 46:42Speaker 2: misbehaving quantus passengers and misfiring seaplanes or coming up in
- 46:46Speaker 2: a moment.
- 46:51Speaker 4: Now.
- 46:51Speaker 2: I know we complain a lot about our politicians, but
- 46:55Speaker 2: it could be worse.
- 46:56Speaker 3: Joe, Yes, James. There is a school of thought in
- 46:59Speaker 3: the United States of America, the very home of modern democracy,
- 47:03Speaker 3: that perhaps the Democrats aren't sending the very cream of
- 47:07Speaker 3: their crop to Washington, DC. And this emerged after a
- 47:13Speaker 3: congressional candidate started, for reasons best known to herself, posting
- 47:19Speaker 3: multiple videos of herself twerking as part of her campaign
- 47:25Speaker 3: for the Democratic primary race in her home state of Michigan.
- 47:31Speaker 3: This is Shelby Campbell, who is a thirty two year
- 47:35Speaker 3: old single mum.
- 47:36Speaker 4: She is, you may be surprised to.
- 47:38Speaker 3: Learn, from the more liberal wing of the Democrats, and
- 47:43Speaker 3: they are trying to unseat someone from the more conservative
- 47:46Speaker 3: wing of the Democrats who is a veteran businessman who
- 47:49Speaker 3: currently holds the seat.
- 47:51Speaker 4: But can he do this? I do?
- 48:01Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Anyway, she'll be great while she's sobers up.
- 48:04Speaker 2: Well she's she's using politics to prepare for only fans.
- 48:08Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I mean basically they go hand in hand.
- 48:12Speaker 3: Just why is that I'm also doing that in your
- 48:15Speaker 3: spare time.
- 48:16Speaker 5: Yes, look from one weird well dare I suppose to
- 48:20Speaker 5: just odd, very odd behavior. A drunk passenger caused a
- 48:23Speaker 5: Quantus flight from Melbourne to Dallas to be diverted to
- 48:26Speaker 5: Tahiti after he allegedly bit a crew member who tried
- 48:30Speaker 5: to restrain him mid flight.
- 48:32Speaker 6: And this was his, well weird excuse. Have a look,
- 48:37Speaker 6: you want to play?
- 48:40Speaker 4: Sorry, sorry, you.
- 48:46Speaker 7: Need you to behave yourself. No, you're carrying on like
- 48:52Speaker 7: plenty two more whites.
- 48:54Speaker 6: Yes, in case you missed that.
- 48:56Speaker 5: Essentially, he just wanted to walk out to have a cigarette,
- 49:00Speaker 5: that's all he said.
- 49:01Speaker 3: Controversial take why not just let him go so you
- 49:05Speaker 3: don't want him on the plane. He's making an a
- 49:07Speaker 3: of himself.
- 49:08Speaker 2: I reckon they were. I reckon they were pretty tempted.
- 49:11Speaker 2: Speaking of planes, a World War two, here a seaplane
- 49:15Speaker 2: flying in Phoenix, Arizona, had engine failure. I'll tell you what.
- 49:19Speaker 2: The pilot made an amazing landing on a roadway. He
- 49:24Speaker 2: and his three passengers, no injuries whatsoever, and no vehicles
- 49:29Speaker 2: involved in that crash either. What an amazing job yet incredible.
- 49:33Speaker 2: Not only got it on the road under a road sign.
- 49:37Speaker 2: If you look here you can see him trying to
- 49:39Speaker 2: find somewhere to land this thing and makes a perfect landing.
- 49:43Speaker 4: Was amazing job. You say it's skillful.
- 49:46Speaker 6: I think it is.
- 49:46Speaker 3: He's flying a seaplane. He doesn't even know the difference
- 49:50Speaker 3: between sea and land.
- 49:53Speaker 4: For it.
- 49:54Speaker 2: All right, that's all we've got time for tonight. Stick Around.
- 49:56Speaker 2: Coming up is the reader Pennety Show. Good Night,
