- 0:12Speaker 1: Is the bold reform it.
- 0:15Speaker 2: Welcome to the show. Well tonight calls on the Prime
- 0:17Speaker 2: Minister to toughen up and quit the International Criminal Court
- 0:20Speaker 2: if it does issue arrest warrance against Israel's Prime Minister.
- 0:24Speaker 2: I'll also show you footage exposing exactly what these anti
- 0:29Speaker 2: Israel protests are like the ones that Anthony ALBINIZI also
- 0:32Speaker 2: won't condemn the intimidation, the hatred, the bullying, the abuse
- 0:37Speaker 2: of the police. That's from just one rally in Melbourne
- 0:47Speaker 2: on Sunday. Some of that footage is astonishing. I'll talk
- 0:49Speaker 2: to the reporter behind it also tonight, more pressure on
- 0:52Speaker 2: the Immigration Minister as a freed foreigner is charged with murder.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Where is the minister? Is he in witness protect again? Plus,
- 1:02Speaker 2: there's something very odd about this smoking ceremony at a
- 1:05Speaker 2: domestic violence center that was promoted so enthusiastically by the
- 1:09Speaker 2: ABC today. I have to say also, I'll tell you
- 1:13Speaker 2: the silver lining unbelievably to what actually is a tragedy
- 1:18Speaker 2: of reassurance though that everyone's missing about the turbulence that
- 1:22Speaker 2: made a Singapore Airlines flight suddenly drop one hundred and
- 1:24Speaker 2: ten meters, causing one death and severe injuries. But I
- 1:28Speaker 2: do hope what I'm about to show you will reassure
- 1:31Speaker 2: you as well. But first, you know, if I didn't
- 1:36Speaker 2: look outside, I almost believe the crowing from the ABC
- 1:40Speaker 2: and the Albanezi government. They're so happy today because a
- 1:44Speaker 2: new CSIRO report claims the opposition's plans for nuclear power
- 1:49Speaker 2: are rubbish, or, as an ABC headline put it, CSIRO
- 1:53Speaker 2: skewer's case for nuclear energy. And it's true. You know,
- 1:58Speaker 2: this report does claim that building a big nuclear power
- 2:01Speaker 2: station twice is twice as expensive as wind and power
- 2:05Speaker 2: backed by some kind of power storage like the snowy
- 2:08Speaker 2: two point zero Pumptydro scheme to release stored green power
- 2:12Speaker 2: when the wind doesn't blow and the sunders and shine. Now,
- 2:15Speaker 2: the CSRO says, well, a nuclear plan that's going to
- 2:18Speaker 2: cost eight and a half billion dollars and take fifteen
- 2:22Speaker 2: years to build, all too late to save us, given
- 2:25Speaker 2: Labour's plans to force shut all our remaining col found
- 2:28Speaker 2: stations by then. And this, of course is what Chris
- 2:32Speaker 2: Bow and the Mannic Climate Change and Energy me is
- 2:33Speaker 2: the jumped on today.
- 2:36Speaker 3: Nuclear will be very very long lead time to build,
- 2:39Speaker 3: very slow to build. So nuclear is slow and expensive
- 2:42Speaker 3: and is risky when it comes to the reliability of
- 2:45Speaker 3: Australia semty system.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Really, well, let's look at the window, I mean metaphorically,
- 2:50Speaker 2: look at reality. How can wind and solder with backupst
- 2:55Speaker 2: cost half of an eight point five billion dollar nuclear
- 2:58Speaker 2: reactor when the cost of just the snowy two point
- 3:02Speaker 2: zero backup alone has now blown out to twelve billion
- 3:07Speaker 2: dollars and is estimated bay experts to reach twenty billion
- 3:11Speaker 2: dollars once you add transmission wires. And that is, of course,
- 3:16Speaker 2: if it ever does get finished. Because use today and
- 3:18Speaker 2: machine digging, the project's forty kilometers of tunnels is stuck
- 3:23Speaker 2: yet again. The last time was for about a year.
- 3:25Speaker 2: Yet Bone claims that nuclear power are proven technology used
- 3:30Speaker 2: in thirty two countries. That's the risky option. I mean, seriously,
- 3:35Speaker 2: if you want to power supply this risky, slow and expensive,
- 3:38Speaker 2: as Bone is winging about, you check the green hydrogen schemes.
- 3:43Speaker 2: He is now frantically throwing your money at to keep
- 3:46Speaker 2: on our lights. He's frantic because just yesterday the Strain
- 3:51Speaker 2: energy market operator warned that his green revolution is way behind.
- 3:54Speaker 2: Not enough wind power, not enough soul, and not enough
- 3:56Speaker 2: transmission wise, it's all falling backwards, high risk now of
- 4:00Speaker 2: blackouts in New South Wales of Victoria. So Bowen I say, desperate,
- 4:05Speaker 2: has our promise another two billion dollars in handouts, two
- 4:08Speaker 2: billion to get companies to invest billions more of their
- 4:11Speaker 2: own in finding ways to make hydrogen from water with
- 4:15Speaker 2: massive wind and solar power without going broke. Of course,
- 4:20Speaker 2: that's two billion of your money, just an incentives for
- 4:25Speaker 2: a technology that is really untested at scale, operates nowhere
- 4:30Speaker 2: at scale, and I certainly would take well more than
- 4:35Speaker 2: fifteen years to get working as needed if it actually
- 4:38Speaker 2: does work. But Bowen won't even drop their ban on
- 4:43Speaker 2: nuclear power, which we know works, have seen works. None
- 4:49Speaker 2: of this makes sense now, By the way, there are
- 4:52Speaker 2: also reasons to doubt the csro's modeling. For instance, it's
- 4:56Speaker 2: claim that nuclear power is twice more expensive than wind
- 4:58Speaker 2: and solar is based on an assumption that this a
- 5:03Speaker 2: nuclear power plant would last just thirty years. In fact,
- 5:07Speaker 2: new plants in the US are rated to last eighty years.
- 5:11Speaker 2: You get a lot more power out of one plant.
- 5:14Speaker 2: And what's more, even at eight and a half billion dollars,
- 5:16Speaker 2: a nuclear power plant looks almost like peanuts compared to
- 5:19Speaker 2: the massive cash being thrown at other green projects that
- 5:23Speaker 2: no one can be sure would even work or work
- 5:25Speaker 2: as well. And this claimed that a nuclear plant would
- 5:29Speaker 2: take fifteen years to build. Well that's probably true, but
- 5:32Speaker 2: only if governments let themselves get tied up by green tape.
- 5:37Speaker 2: So many projects are these days where there's a will,
- 5:41Speaker 2: there's a way, But it seems again that nuclear is
- 5:44Speaker 2: just up against a lot of wont from people who
- 5:47Speaker 2: don't want them to work. Now, one of the most
- 5:55Speaker 2: interesting activists in this debate is just seventeen years old.
- 5:59Speaker 2: This Will Shackle, who founded the first youth led campaign
- 6:03Speaker 2: for nuclear energy. It's called Nuclear for Australia as a
- 6:06Speaker 2: lot of people raving battle like Dick Smith, and he's
- 6:09Speaker 2: given evidence of a Senate Committee on nuclear power when
- 6:12Speaker 2: he was just sixteen years old, as well as appearing
- 6:15Speaker 2: on Sunrise Current Affair did you be three at WABAC,
- 6:18Speaker 2: read here at Sky News and on the ABC's Q
- 6:21Speaker 2: and a twice. I suspect the ABC was hoping you
- 6:24Speaker 2: make a fool of himself, but no luck there at all.
- 6:28Speaker 2: Joining me is Will Shackle. Will thank you so much
- 6:31Speaker 2: for your time. Look the CSIO saying nuclear power is
- 6:35Speaker 2: much more expensive than wind and solar will take fifteen
- 6:37Speaker 2: years to save us too late. Do you believe it?
- 6:40Speaker 2: What do you know at seventeen that the CSIRO does
- 6:43Speaker 2: not know at all?
- 6:45Speaker 4: Well, look, Andrew, a lot of the experts are going
- 6:47Speaker 4: to canvas all of the limitations of the gen coos report.
- 6:51Speaker 4: But I think one of the most concerning things that
- 6:53Speaker 4: it only takes a seventeen year old to work out
- 6:56Speaker 4: that there are major issues with the report, and one
- 6:58Speaker 4: that I direct your view as a team too, is
- 7:00Speaker 4: something that you mentioned was the fact that they've incorrectly
- 7:04Speaker 4: assumed that a nuclear power plant can last the same
- 7:06Speaker 4: amount of time as a solar farm or wind turbine.
- 7:10Speaker 4: That is just simply not true a nuclear power plant.
- 7:13Speaker 4: Nuclear power plants are known to last from sixty to
- 7:16Speaker 4: eighty years, and with refurbishments, can last for over a century.
- 7:21Speaker 4: And why that's really important to the economics of nuclears.
- 7:23Speaker 4: Whilst you've got a nuclear power plant running, you might
- 7:26Speaker 4: have to be replacing the same solar turbines, the solar panels,
- 7:30Speaker 4: and the wind turbines multiple times. And not only is
- 7:33Speaker 4: there a cost related to actually producing those solar panels
- 7:36Speaker 4: and those wind turbines. But in addition, there's often an
- 7:39Speaker 4: undocumented cost associated with the disposal of those solar panels
- 7:44Speaker 4: in wind turbines. Now, I think the bottom line here
- 7:47Speaker 4: is this a computer model drawn up by the CSIRO.
- 7:50Speaker 4: There's not no more than the more than fifty countries
- 7:53Speaker 4: around the world which are going to pursue nuclear for
- 7:56Speaker 4: the first time and are seriously looking into it, or
- 7:58Speaker 4: the thirty two countries around the world which already have
- 8:01Speaker 4: nuclear power. Ultimately, when people bring up this gen cost report,
- 8:05Speaker 4: which is full of limitations, it is ultimately a distraction
- 8:09Speaker 4: about having a genuine conversation about why nuclear power is
- 8:13Speaker 4: still banned. Here in Australia, we're the only member of
- 8:17Speaker 4: the G twenty with a ban on nuclear power. And
- 8:19Speaker 4: as all of those countries have shown, they know that
- 8:23Speaker 4: nuclear power is needed in order to ensure that they're
- 8:26Speaker 4: able to reach net zero whilst keeping power prices down
- 8:29Speaker 4: and having a reliable grid. So if we are really
- 8:33Speaker 4: serious about addressing all of those challenges, we need to
- 8:36Speaker 4: have a serious conversation about nuclear power and looking and
- 8:40Speaker 4: basing all of our energy policies on a single report
- 8:43Speaker 4: like this with such serious limitations I think is gravely concerning.
- 8:49Speaker 2: Well, I think you put your finger on an absolute
- 8:51Speaker 2: how in that report you could have also added, by
- 8:54Speaker 2: the way that the Netherlands new government there has just
- 8:57Speaker 2: said we're turning back from these manic global warming policies renewables,
- 9:04Speaker 2: we are going to go for nuclear power as well. Now, well,
- 9:09Speaker 2: it's interesting, you know, like for decades have been reporting
- 9:13Speaker 2: on the global warming, sorry, the anti nuclear hysteria in
- 9:17Speaker 2: this country that I think has marinated the Prime Minister
- 9:21Speaker 2: and much of the Labor Party. There seems to be
- 9:24Speaker 2: a shift now in attitudes to nuclear power. I find
- 9:28Speaker 2: it fascinating that someone of your age now is daring
- 9:31Speaker 2: to say, what are people twice your age or three
- 9:34Speaker 2: times your age do not yet dare say about nuclear power?
- 9:38Speaker 2: That it can work and would be a good idea,
- 9:40Speaker 2: and why don't we try it? Have you noticed any
- 9:42Speaker 2: change in attitude yourself to nuclear power in this country.
- 9:48Speaker 4: I think there has been a really major change in attitude,
- 9:51Speaker 4: and it's because so many people in Australia are concerned
- 9:54Speaker 4: about climate change. And if you're concerned about climate change, well,
- 9:57Speaker 4: why wouldn't you have nuclear power on the table it's
- 10:00Speaker 4: a zero missions technology and it's the only guaranteed path
- 10:03Speaker 4: to be able to get us to net zero in Australia.
- 10:06Speaker 4: You look at France at the moment, they'd be generating
- 10:08Speaker 4: about one hundred percent of their power from low emission sources.
- 10:12Speaker 4: They've already done this energy transition and not only do
- 10:15Speaker 4: they have some of the lowest power bills in the world,
- 10:17Speaker 4: but they've also got extremely reliable electricity. Now, how have
- 10:21Speaker 4: they done that. They haven't done it with a risky
- 10:23Speaker 4: one hundred percent renewables only approach like our government is
- 10:26Speaker 4: currently trying to invent. What they've done is they've used
- 10:30Speaker 4: around sixty five percent nuclear. They were able to deploy
- 10:33Speaker 4: around fifty reactors within fifteen years, and now they're seen
- 10:37Speaker 4: around the world as one of the best countries when
- 10:39Speaker 4: it comes to addressing climate change. So that's a big thing.
- 10:42Speaker 4: But I think there's a severe disconnect with our politicians
- 10:45Speaker 4: where they're still lingering on with this fear mongering about
- 10:48Speaker 4: nuclear power. You even have to look at the Labor
- 10:50Speaker 4: Party today and they're running ads where they've got nuclear
- 10:53Speaker 4: big AI generated images of nuclear reactors behind the Sydney
- 10:58Speaker 4: Opera house with big class above them. You can look
- 11:02Speaker 4: it up on the Internet and there's simply fear mongering.
- 11:04Speaker 4: And what it does most importantly is it undermines Australia's
- 11:08Speaker 4: trust in Australia's nuclear science capability, which is so concerning.
- 11:12Speaker 4: We've got a research react to thirty kilometers from the
- 11:14Speaker 4: Sydney CBD producing life saving nuclear medicines. And for politicians
- 11:19Speaker 4: to basically forget the benefits of nuclear power and pursue
- 11:24Speaker 4: ideology over the facts is I think, really really concerning pathetic.
- 11:30Speaker 2: They may as well imagine a wind turbine stuck in
- 11:34Speaker 2: the sales of the Sydney Opera House, just as unlikely
- 11:37Speaker 2: will Shackle. Thank you so much a d for your time.
- 11:39Speaker 2: Terrific stuff, Anthony Alberineasy, it just doesn't stand on these
- 11:46Speaker 2: very ugly anti Israel mobs on our streets now. And
- 11:51Speaker 2: the pressure went on him today to at least call
- 11:54Speaker 2: out the disgraceful decision by the International Criminal Courts Chief
- 11:57Speaker 2: Prosecutor of British Muslim to seek a warrant to arrest
- 12:01Speaker 2: Israel's Prime Minister for war crimes along with leaders of
- 12:04Speaker 2: the Hamas terrorist group, as if they were all morally alike.
- 12:08Speaker 2: This was all that Albanezi would say yesterday, you have
- 12:12Speaker 2: put the joy Biden seeking arrest warrants on this Rala.
- 12:15Speaker 2: That is his outrageous.
- 12:16Speaker 5: You agree, well, I don't comment on court processes.
- 12:22Speaker 2: Pathetic. Now today Alexander Downer, the Foreign minister who signed
- 12:27Speaker 2: us up to the International Criminal Court in nineteen eighty eight, said, look,
- 12:31Speaker 2: Australia should now consider withdrawing from it if it does
- 12:35Speaker 2: go ahead with these ridiculous warrants and opportunal need to
- 12:38Speaker 2: Peter Dunne today would not rule that out.
- 12:41Speaker 6: In the first instance, it needs to make sure that
- 12:44Speaker 6: there is moral clarity in our country, and that is
- 12:46Speaker 6: to reverse the decision and to put pressure on the
- 12:50Speaker 6: ICC to make sure that they reversed this terrible decision.
- 12:55Speaker 6: That's the first instance. And then I think the next
- 12:57Speaker 6: steps in relation to what you were doing beyond that,
- 13:01Speaker 6: I'm very open too. I don't rule it out.
- 13:04Speaker 2: But Albinizi today still refused to budge. It's like it's
- 13:07Speaker 2: crawling for the votes of Muslims here and the kind
- 13:10Speaker 2: of people who on Sunday in Melbourne protests that again
- 13:13Speaker 2: against Israel, this time by trying to crash a peaceful
- 13:17Speaker 2: rally against anti Semitism that was called by Christians and Jews.
- 13:22Speaker 2: Now I have seen reports suggesting that both sides of
- 13:26Speaker 2: this protest were as bad as each other, and police
- 13:29Speaker 2: clashed with both. But that's hiding once again the truth
- 13:34Speaker 2: about the anti Israel protests that Albinize is effectively encouraging
- 13:38Speaker 2: with his silence. Now, Harvievany was there. He's a reporter
- 13:42Speaker 2: from Rebel News. He is not afraid to go right
- 13:44Speaker 2: up to protesters of the hard left and ask them
- 13:47Speaker 2: the hard questions, although he is smart enough to do
- 13:50Speaker 2: it with a huge bodyguard. And most of what I'll
- 13:53Speaker 2: now show you of that anti Israel process on Sunday
- 13:57Speaker 2: is what he's posted. This is the kind of protests
- 14:00Speaker 2: that Anthony alban Easy is unleashing, or helping to unleash
- 14:05Speaker 2: with his refusal to condemn the sort of extremes. And
- 14:09Speaker 2: we're seeing, for instance, many protesters there dressed like Palace
- 14:13Speaker 2: and in extremers, faces covered yet again, and they bullied
- 14:16Speaker 2: even this woman in a wheelchair and Israel supporter. She
- 14:20Speaker 2: was mobbed by these anti Israel protesters. One ran off
- 14:23Speaker 2: with her Israeli flag, which was later burned. They also
- 14:27Speaker 2: tried to push back police forces and abuse the police
- 14:30Speaker 2: on them as animals. Weren't even stripped off his shirt
- 14:41Speaker 2: to apparently try to physically intimidate Yemeny.
- 14:45Speaker 7: Are you a real man, real man of real manager?
- 14:49Speaker 2: In fronding debatable, You can't touch the can't tell if
- 14:53Speaker 2: you've got no heart, you're not curry.
- 14:55Speaker 8: Just I hear by myself in front of thousands.
- 14:58Speaker 2: Of people because I'm a similar resistance joining me is
- 15:02Speaker 2: Yemeny A have you great to see you again? Look,
- 15:04Speaker 2: you've come to a lot of these protests, is what
- 15:07Speaker 2: I've just shown here, typical of them.
- 15:10Speaker 5: Sadly for any thanks for having me, Andrew Sadly, I'd
- 15:13Speaker 5: say it's usually worse because on a regular week you know,
- 15:18Speaker 5: since October seven, in fact, up until this weekend, there
- 15:22Speaker 5: haven't been many police around who are willing or available
- 15:27Speaker 5: to deal with the thugs, so usually they would get
- 15:29Speaker 5: away with the crimes, the violence. Whereas on Sunday you
- 15:35Speaker 5: saw police moving quite quickly.
- 15:39Speaker 2: And in fact they arrested six protests. Isn't what I
- 15:41Speaker 2: didn't see reported the newspapers was all, as I understand it,
- 15:45Speaker 2: were from the anti Israel mob. Not a single protest
- 15:49Speaker 2: from the pro Israel crowd were arrested, and I think
- 15:53Speaker 2: that said something about the behavior. Now, Ave, I've shown
- 15:58Speaker 2: before footage of another protest outside Victorian Victoria's Parliament, again
- 16:02Speaker 2: involving you. You try to interview a pro palesce inan
- 16:06Speaker 2: extremists have already been charged with kidnapping and torture about
- 16:10Speaker 2: recent violence at that protest protest, and here is how
- 16:14Speaker 2: he reacted to you.
- 16:17Speaker 4: Hey, I'm gonna get you.
- 16:19Speaker 2: I'm good.
- 16:19Speaker 4: Now what are you going to do? Live? What are
- 16:22Speaker 4: you going to live?
- 16:22Speaker 1: What are you going to do?
- 16:23Speaker 5: Live?
- 16:27Speaker 9: Get my way?
- 16:28Speaker 4: You're off, Get my way, Stay out of the camera.
- 16:33Speaker 2: Way you want to make to get him?
- 16:42Speaker 4: Why did you turn my way?
- 16:43Speaker 10: Why?
- 16:44Speaker 2: Why did you turn my way?
- 16:46Speaker 1: This is Victoria.
- 16:48Speaker 2: But here is the police reaction to that clear threat
- 16:51Speaker 2: to you.
- 16:53Speaker 5: The face of Hamas.
- 16:54Speaker 2: I don't get involved in that.
- 16:56Speaker 5: It probably should though he's out on bail for kidnapping, torture.
- 17:01Speaker 2: Have you any what are you noticing about the policing
- 17:04Speaker 2: of these protests and the reporting of them.
- 17:08Speaker 5: Andrew, firstly, tell me what other event in what world
- 17:15Speaker 5: can you go up and act like that violently in
- 17:18Speaker 5: front of in front of police, and not only they
- 17:22Speaker 5: don't intervene, they tell you that, they literally tell you
- 17:26Speaker 5: that they witness the crime and they just let it happen,
- 17:28Speaker 5: and they tell you that they can't do anything about it.
- 17:30Speaker 5: There's no other place that happens. It's like a protected species.
- 17:33Speaker 5: In fact, if you go to any on the weekend
- 17:35Speaker 5: to any pro Palestinian anti Israel prokramas let's call them
- 17:40Speaker 5: for what they are protests and you wave in Israeli flag,
- 17:44Speaker 5: you'll get mobbed and then you'll get whisked away an
- 17:47Speaker 5: issue to move on order for your own safety from police.
- 17:52Speaker 5: But yeah, it's insane. And the insanity of it all
- 17:55Speaker 5: is that once again it's been done with the media's
- 18:00Speaker 5: kind of help, the fact that they can even compare
- 18:03Speaker 5: these groups, or they're unwilling to really hold them accountable.
- 18:10Speaker 2: I was struck by the fact that the media reporting
- 18:12Speaker 2: I saw did not draw a contrast between the two
- 18:17Speaker 2: groups see pro Israel and the anti Israel because it
- 18:20Speaker 2: was so stark and I think said so much. What
- 18:24Speaker 2: did that difference to you?
- 18:27Speaker 5: Well, Pasually, the idea that I saw the reporting that
- 18:29Speaker 5: six were arrested and they didn't actually tell us which
- 18:32Speaker 5: group they came from. Now, all you had to do
- 18:36Speaker 5: any journalist that was there and was honest, anyone that
- 18:38Speaker 5: was there and honest and looked at the two groups,
- 18:41Speaker 5: you could see clearly.
- 18:42Speaker 4: You look over at.
- 18:43Speaker 5: One group, they're chanting genocidal slogans, there's not one Australian
- 18:49Speaker 5: flag in the crowd, and they're calling for the destruction
- 18:52Speaker 5: of Israel. But then also in Australia, the other group,
- 18:57Speaker 5: on the other hand, gathered were chanting songs of love,
- 19:01Speaker 5: the Australian anthem and waving Israeli and plenty of Australian
- 19:07Speaker 5: flowers because they love. You can see they love, they
- 19:12Speaker 5: love Australia, they love Israel, they love Western for you know,
- 19:16Speaker 5: Western democracies, they cherish freedom, and any reporting that doesn't
- 19:24Speaker 5: highlight that is absolutely dishonest.
- 19:29Speaker 2: Well, I think that's absolutely correct, because I interpret this
- 19:32Speaker 2: is not just an attack on Israel, it's an attack
- 19:35Speaker 2: on Western civilization and Australia. This involves us too, And
- 19:40Speaker 2: I think it's been the mask is being ripped off.
- 19:41Speaker 2: It's becoming more and more obvious. And thanks Avmany for
- 19:45Speaker 2: your part in making that so obvious by filming it.
- 19:48Speaker 2: Really appreciate that thank you adream after the break, when
- 19:53Speaker 2: did see let's listening to the ABC this morning, why
- 19:57Speaker 2: is it celebrating a shelter training women to drive out
- 20:02Speaker 2: spirits with a spoking ceremony. And there's something else that's
- 20:06Speaker 2: bizarre about this and hypocritical and to culture wars. Well,
- 20:14Speaker 2: I do want to get back to the Prome Minister's
- 20:16Speaker 2: refusal to defend the latest attacks on Israel. But but
- 20:19Speaker 2: first another cultural change, another sort of war against the
- 20:22Speaker 2: West really and our values and on reason, the ABCZAM
- 20:28Speaker 2: program this morning was so excited good news from Armadale
- 20:33Speaker 2: in New South Wales.
- 20:35Speaker 1: When a group of Aboriginal women in northeastern New South
- 20:38Speaker 1: Wales warned that a local family violent shelter had bad spirits.
- 20:42Speaker 1: Management took it seriously, and they.
- 20:45Speaker 2: Sure did take it seriously. They two years ago brought
- 20:49Speaker 2: in an Aboriginal guard to smoke out these bad spirits.
- 20:53Speaker 2: As the shelter boss explained, back then.
- 20:57Speaker 7: We've been getting lots of stories about a spirit that.
- 21:00Speaker 9: It's been stuck in the building here.
- 21:02Speaker 11: The smoke will end up up through up the stairs,
- 21:05Speaker 11: through the room to cleanse the place of as I said,
- 21:10Speaker 11: the evil spirits.
- 21:12Speaker 2: She said they were getting four or five women a
- 21:15Speaker 2: month that were too scared to go in that building
- 21:17Speaker 2: because of the spirits stuck in there. So anyway, but
- 21:21Speaker 2: apparently that smoking wasn't good enough. Well so I believe,
- 21:26Speaker 2: because I'm not sure whether the spirits came back, but
- 21:30Speaker 2: there was a problem, the ABC said this morning with
- 21:33Speaker 2: the bloke that hard back then to do that smoking.
- 21:38Speaker 11: Bringing a man into a women's space had its own
- 21:41Speaker 11: is shoes. So the shelter went through a painstaking, year
- 21:45Speaker 11: long consultation process in partnership with Naywata Aboriginal Corporation to
- 21:51Speaker 11: develop a women's smoking ceremony.
- 21:54Speaker 2: We're hearing this correctly. I cannot believe that a women's
- 21:58Speaker 2: shelter dealing with the messy violence has the time to
- 22:01Speaker 2: spend one whole year developing a women's smoking ceremony to
- 22:07Speaker 2: drive out spirits that I suppose that Aboriginal bloke, well
- 22:12Speaker 2: we're supposed to have got rid of already. Who's praying
- 22:14Speaker 2: for all this sitting around talking about imaginary spirits? But
- 22:19Speaker 2: that's not all. Join me is Rondine at sort of
- 22:22Speaker 2: the Spectator, Australian hosts of Outsiders on Sky News every
- 22:24Speaker 2: Sunday at nine am Rowan. All this time spent on
- 22:29Speaker 2: training women to use Aboriginal magic to chase away spirits.
- 22:33Speaker 2: Shouldn't this center have used instead a Christian priest to
- 22:38Speaker 2: conduct the exceorss, of which it would have done for free,
- 22:40Speaker 2: since half the country's Aborigines are in fact Christians. What's more,
- 22:45Speaker 2: a survey of this Armadale region showed that there are
- 22:47Speaker 2: more than thirteen thousand local Christians, just forty seven Pagans,
- 22:51Speaker 2: fifteen witchcraft believers would you believe? And only seventeen people
- 22:55Speaker 2: in the whole shire, male or female, claiming to follow
- 22:58Speaker 2: Aboriginal traditional religions.
- 23:03Speaker 9: Well, Andrew, you're onto something here. And first of all,
- 23:07Speaker 9: all Australians wish to close the gap. That's what we
- 23:10Speaker 9: pay a large proportion of our taxes or Australians pay
- 23:13Speaker 9: a lot of money towards closing the gap. But strikes
- 23:15Speaker 9: me here they're trying to close the gap between science
- 23:18Speaker 9: and superstition, and that's not a gap that you will
- 23:21Speaker 9: ever ever close. There's a bit of there's a strange,
- 23:25Speaker 9: little kind of racist thing here going on because the
- 23:29Speaker 9: ABC reported that there was spirits, But when you actually
- 23:32Speaker 9: listen to the video from the woman from the center.
- 23:34Speaker 9: There was one spirit and he stubbornly refused to go away.
- 23:39Speaker 9: Who's to say that this spirit was an Aboriginal spirit,
- 23:43Speaker 9: as you say, because if not, would the smoking ceremony
- 23:47Speaker 9: work on a non aboriginal spirit. Ghostbusters or poltergeists or
- 23:54Speaker 9: exorcists will work on all sorts of different spirits. But
- 23:58Speaker 9: the reason that this spirit stubborn they refuse to go
- 24:01Speaker 9: is either because the smoking ceremony didn't work first time round,
- 24:04Speaker 9: or the smoking ceremony was written by a man and
- 24:06Speaker 9: this particular spirit said that's it. I'm not moving now.
- 24:09Speaker 9: All of this has its own amusing sides, but more importantly,
- 24:14Speaker 9: it has its serious side. You referred to it the
- 24:17Speaker 9: money being paid. So Australians, as I said, pay a
- 24:20Speaker 9: lot of money very generously towards the welfare of Indigenous Australians,
- 24:27Speaker 9: and particularly women and women in Indigenous women are the
- 24:32Speaker 9: worst victims in Australia of domestic violence. So you've got
- 24:35Speaker 9: two very serious issues here. One, Andrew, is the money
- 24:39Speaker 9: being paid. Is this really the best use of it?
- 24:42Speaker 9: And you've asked that question, I would argue, no, it's not.
- 24:45Speaker 9: But More importantly, domestic violence is, as I say, incredibly
- 24:49Speaker 9: serious issue and it has many reasons behind it that
- 24:54Speaker 9: people look into, sociological, psychological, criminal behavior, all sorts of reasons.
- 25:01Speaker 9: And for the women of Armadale being led to believe,
- 25:08Speaker 9: particularly the indigenous women as they are kind of told
- 25:11Speaker 9: in the videos from this particular center, that the smoking
- 25:15Speaker 9: ceremony will have a positive effect, I think is misleading.
- 25:20Speaker 9: I might be wrong. Perhaps the smoking ceremony, maybe the
- 25:23Speaker 9: domestic violence that they've suffered through and hopefully will never
- 25:28Speaker 9: suffer that through again, but have suffered through, will somehow
- 25:30Speaker 9: the effects of it will be ameliorated through the smoking ceremony.
- 25:34Speaker 9: But I think it's a big ask and I think
- 25:37Speaker 9: it belittles not only the seriousness of domestic violence, but
- 25:42Speaker 9: I think it also raises huge question marks about whether
- 25:46Speaker 9: our money has been wisely spent.
- 25:49Speaker 2: Well, what about the money on the ABC rong You
- 25:51Speaker 2: haven't even addressed that yet. I mean you've hit the
- 25:54Speaker 2: main points, but the ABC here, I ask you, would
- 25:58Speaker 2: the ABC have been so supportive of an exorcism that
- 26:05Speaker 2: it is of this feminist smoking ceremony even though you know,
- 26:08Speaker 2: like I say, infinitely more aboriginal. He is a Christian
- 26:11Speaker 2: and you know a sort of Aboriginal spiritual worshipers. Would
- 26:17Speaker 2: the ABC say, oh, it's wonderful. They dragged him father
- 26:21Speaker 2: a grainy to come in and do a Damien sort
- 26:23Speaker 2: of exorcism, and you know, we reckon it worked, And
- 26:26Speaker 2: now they're training women to exercise. I mean, no way
- 26:30Speaker 2: would the ABC do that. Why then do they patronize
- 26:34Speaker 2: this particular sort of exorcism a smoking ceremony.
- 26:40Speaker 9: Well, you're right, and they if a priest went anywhere
- 26:43Speaker 9: near the place, forgive the pun, they would demonize the priest.
- 26:46Speaker 9: It would be like Damien from the owner training, and
- 26:49Speaker 9: we would hear all sorts of things about how this
- 26:51Speaker 9: guy that that the exorcist was probably a pedophile priest,
- 26:55Speaker 9: or he was this, or it was that or whatever.
- 26:57Speaker 9: They would demonize the priest, not the demon. But no,
- 27:01Speaker 9: if it's if it's an aboriginal religious ceremony, we're all
- 27:05Speaker 9: expected to take it very seriously, including the ABC. All
- 27:08Speaker 9: other or the Christian religion. No, no, no, you mock that,
- 27:13Speaker 9: You ridicule that for all it's worth. But other religions
- 27:16Speaker 9: they get the red carpet, They get all their superstitious
- 27:19Speaker 9: beliefs are taken at face value.
- 27:23Speaker 2: Well, I wonder whether the ABC realized is it's mocking
- 27:25Speaker 2: them in or it's doing the dirt on the favorite
- 27:28Speaker 2: religion of most Aborigines. How racist are they? I asked
- 27:34Speaker 2: Anthony alban Easy refusing to condemn the International Criminal Court
- 27:39Speaker 2: after as Chief Prosecute said he wanted charges for as
- 27:41Speaker 2: Prime Minister alongside hamas terrorists as a war criminal. How
- 27:46Speaker 2: on earth can the Prime Minister justify refusing to have
- 27:51Speaker 2: an opinion on something as as ludicrous and as explosive
- 27:56Speaker 2: as this.
- 27:59Speaker 9: Yeah, it's absolutely disgraceful. And Anthony Albanesi and Penny Wog
- 28:04Speaker 9: have done everything to sort of it's as if they
- 28:07Speaker 9: have some kind of secret agenda to push towards the
- 28:10Speaker 9: delegitimization of Israel. Everything they do is always putting Israel
- 28:17Speaker 9: metaphorically in the dock. Right from the word go. They
- 28:21Speaker 9: changed disputed territories of Juda and Samaria to the occupied territories,
- 28:26Speaker 9: therefore immediately accusing Israel of putting Israel in the dock. Basically,
- 28:32Speaker 9: they've were quite happy to vote against our allies at
- 28:35Speaker 9: the United Nations to push for recognition to reward the
- 28:39Speaker 9: people who had butchered, murdered, raped, beheaded, tortured Israeli women,
- 28:44Speaker 9: men and children only a few months ago, to reward
- 28:47Speaker 9: them by granting them at the United Nations a vote
- 28:51Speaker 9: that Hamas themselves applauded. So everything Anthony Albanesi and Pennywong
- 28:55Speaker 9: have done has pushed towards the delegitimization of Israel. This
- 29:00Speaker 9: is not the final step, but another step along that path.
- 29:05Speaker 9: And what Anthony Alberizi has done by not doing what
- 29:10Speaker 9: Peter Dutton quite correctly and Alexander Danner quite correctly and
- 29:13Speaker 9: others have said if this goes ahead, Australia must pull
- 29:17Speaker 9: out of the ICC. I would go further and say
- 29:19Speaker 9: Australia should be looking very seriously at whether we belong
- 29:22Speaker 9: in the United Nations. When they stood there praising the
- 29:25Speaker 9: butcher of Tehran and lowering the flag for a man
- 29:28Speaker 9: who'd murdered and created misery for millions of Iranians, particularly women,
- 29:33Speaker 9: why we are a party to this mob I find unbelievable.
- 29:38Speaker 9: But for Anthony Albanizi to pretend to hide behind the
- 29:41Speaker 9: fact of you know, there's a court case underway, well
- 29:44Speaker 9: a there isn't a court case underway, but b it's
- 29:47Speaker 9: an international criminal court that has no jurisdiction over Gaza
- 29:51Speaker 9: and no jurisdiction over Israel.
- 29:53Speaker 2: So it is a show.
- 29:54Speaker 9: It is a show trial. It's worthy if it goes ahead,
- 29:57Speaker 9: It's worthy of the Soviet Union at its worst. We
- 30:00Speaker 9: should have no partners. We fund these clowns. The only
- 30:04Speaker 9: way we should be the only thing we should be
- 30:06Speaker 9: doing is withdrawing our money as fast as possible.
- 30:10Speaker 2: Yes, I don't even think there should be an if
- 30:11Speaker 2: about it. If they go ahead, just do it. I mean,
- 30:15Speaker 2: how much success is the has the ICC actually had?
- 30:18Speaker 2: How many criminals has it actually.
- 30:20Speaker 4: Brought to book?
- 30:21Speaker 2: Very very very few? And for it to devote its
- 30:24Speaker 2: resources to this case to Israel, I mean, seriously, it's
- 30:28Speaker 2: just sick. Honestly. Rohn Deine, thank you so much in
- 30:32Speaker 2: ded for your time. Wow. Anyway, after the break, Channel
- 30:38Speaker 2: nine finally gets serious about claims against the top news
- 30:41Speaker 2: executive and the one reassuring thing had the terrible turbulence
- 30:46Speaker 2: on a Singapore Airlines flight that killed one passenger or
- 30:49Speaker 2: all that. After this our bad new selves, it might
- 30:57Speaker 2: not be surprising that the one silver lining in the
- 30:59Speaker 2: Singapore Airlines tragedy has been overlooked by the media, yet
- 31:05Speaker 2: it's something that does answer the one fear I have
- 31:07Speaker 2: when flying, as it will be doing again on Friday.
- 31:11Speaker 2: This Singapore Airlines plane hit a massive down draft out
- 31:15Speaker 2: of nowhere and dropped the one hundred and ten meters
- 31:18Speaker 2: at once, and just when meals are being served, so
- 31:22Speaker 2: bodies and plates were flying everywhere. Now, as I say,
- 31:25Speaker 2: it's a tragedy because of seventy three year old Bridge
- 31:28Speaker 2: mandaid of a heart attack and six people were critically injured,
- 31:31Speaker 2: which isn't really so surprising given what happened there. I mean,
- 31:37Speaker 2: one hundred and ten meters dropped all at once, look
- 31:40Speaker 2: at the destruction in the cabin afterwards. But this from
- 31:45Speaker 2: a Sky News reporter summing up the event, I don't
- 31:48Speaker 2: think is quite right.
- 31:50Speaker 7: Singapore Airlines is regarded highly in the industry and this
- 31:55Speaker 7: is a relatively rare incident, but it is one that
- 31:59Speaker 7: may well strike terror in many.
- 32:03Speaker 2: Scun News Britain, by the way, which tends to see
- 32:05Speaker 2: the dark things in everything. Joining me is Sophie Elsworth
- 32:09Speaker 2: Media Right, for the Australian newspaper. Sophie, thanks for joining us.
- 32:13Speaker 2: You've got a media scoop for us that I'll get
- 32:16Speaker 2: to in a second, but I'm starting with this, not
- 32:19Speaker 2: least because I'm going on a plane to myself and
- 32:20Speaker 2: I'm looking here for reassurance, I guess, but I think
- 32:23Speaker 2: I've actually found it now. That reporter was saying this event,
- 32:29Speaker 2: the plane dropping one hundred and ten meters all at once,
- 32:33Speaker 2: will make us feel terror But this actually answers my
- 32:35Speaker 2: big fear when there's bad turbance. Could the wings crack
- 32:38Speaker 2: and fall off if it really gets bad? And the
- 32:42Speaker 2: answer seems to be no, keep your seat belt on
- 32:44Speaker 2: and you'll be okay. Reassuring or not.
- 32:50Speaker 10: Well, Andrew, I think it is reassuring, and hopefully you
- 32:53Speaker 10: can get on that plane when you head off overseas
- 32:55Speaker 10: without too many worries. But you and I both know
- 32:58Speaker 10: whenever you encounter to turbulence, it's so frightening sometimes, but
- 33:02Speaker 10: you never expect it to end badly. So I think
- 33:07Speaker 10: it is reassuring to think that despite people getting injured
- 33:11Speaker 10: and sadly one man dying, they were able to walk
- 33:14Speaker 10: away from this incident, you know, pretty much unscathed. It
- 33:20Speaker 10: was pretty frightening vision but thankfully it ended not as
- 33:24Speaker 10: badly as it could have been.
- 33:28Speaker 2: I tell you what the stewards, what do they call
- 33:31Speaker 2: them now? I can't say Stuart. This is as Steward's host.
- 33:34Speaker 2: Now they're called flight attendants. Thank you, flight attendants. They
- 33:42Speaker 2: won't have much trouble getting Bilow Bay when they say,
- 33:45Speaker 2: you know, keep your seatbel on, not for another what
- 33:48Speaker 2: week before people forget? But anyway, so sorry, you've been
- 33:52Speaker 2: reporting on another media company with another ledged scandal. We've
- 33:56Speaker 2: had Channel ten already with Channel seven go through the
- 33:59Speaker 2: ring in, particularly over the bri is slim and stuff.
- 34:00Speaker 2: Now Channel nine there have been reports of the company's
- 34:03Speaker 2: most senior news boss there and we left the organization
- 34:06Speaker 2: in March, of course, but following allegations of inappropriate behavior
- 34:11Speaker 2: towards a female staff member. Now nine CEO Mike Sneezebee
- 34:16Speaker 2: has spoken about this today to staff. What did he say?
- 34:22Speaker 10: That's right, Andrew. In an extraordinary email to staff this afternoon,
- 34:27Speaker 10: mister Sneezeby came out and urged employees Andrew to come
- 34:31Speaker 10: forward and report any complaints about inappropriate behavior in the workplace. Now,
- 34:36Speaker 10: this move is clearly trying to flush out any bad
- 34:40Speaker 10: behavior from within the organization that now looks like it
- 34:44Speaker 10: might have a serious problem on its hands.
- 34:48Speaker 2: Well, absolutely correct. So what does this mean for Channel nine?
- 34:54Speaker 2: Do you think you know a head's going to roll
- 34:57Speaker 2: over how this departure Wick was handled.
- 35:04Speaker 10: Well, Andrew, Look, there's no doubt senior executives are under
- 35:07Speaker 10: pressure over this situation relating to Darren Wick and The Australian,
- 35:11Speaker 10: the paper that I work for, repeatedly asked Channel nine
- 35:16Speaker 10: about his whereabouts in the weeks leading up to his exit.
- 35:19Speaker 10: Now he wasn't at work and we were asking his
- 35:21Speaker 10: whereabouts and we were told he was coming back to
- 35:25Speaker 10: the office and there were no talks that he was leaving. Now, this, Andrew,
- 35:29Speaker 10: has proven not to be the case, and it seems
- 35:33Speaker 10: mister Steesby and nine's communications director Victoria Bucken are both
- 35:38Speaker 10: under incredible pressure over the handling of this fiasco, which
- 35:42Speaker 10: may I say, only came to light after we broke
- 35:45Speaker 10: this story out the Australian.
- 35:48Speaker 2: Well, you know this is all very weird, Sophie, because
- 35:52Speaker 2: when you say that, immediately I think, look, so until
- 35:55Speaker 2: you broke the story, Channel nine had not our staff
- 36:00Speaker 2: to come forward and report any complaints. A bit inappropriate
- 36:02Speaker 2: behavior in the workplace. But now that you've broken the story,
- 36:06Speaker 2: it has have I got that right? Is that correct?
- 36:11Speaker 10: Well, Andrew, it appears that this email from mister steees
- 36:15Speaker 10: Mey today is the catalyst. The catalyst was the situation
- 36:19Speaker 10: regarding Darren Wick and the allegations that have been reported.
- 36:23Speaker 10: So this is pushed nine management to do something about it.
- 36:28Speaker 10: They have a serious problem and they are a network
- 36:31Speaker 10: in damage control.
- 36:34Speaker 2: Well, I think they need to explain why this comes
- 36:38Speaker 2: after the story becomes public and not before. But anyway, look,
- 36:42Speaker 2: I have to add that Sherry markson straight after the show,
- 36:47Speaker 2: hang on for that viewers, because she has got an
- 36:50Speaker 2: interview with a woman who believes that we believe is
- 36:55Speaker 2: at the center of some of these allegations and she's
- 36:58Speaker 2: got a story to tell and you hear it here
- 37:01Speaker 2: after the show Selfie Elseworth, thank you so much in
- 37:04Speaker 2: def your time, really appreciate it. After the break, look,
- 37:08Speaker 2: I got to ask the question again, where is this
- 37:10Speaker 2: man Minister for Immigration. It seems to be again in
- 37:14Speaker 2: hiding after yet another disaster on his watch, and this
- 37:18Speaker 2: time someone is dead. Immediate view of feedback, are just
- 37:27Speaker 2: going to answer that? One viewer says, Look, they've been
- 37:32Speaker 2: having to walk because of all these anti Israel protests
- 37:36Speaker 2: almost weekly. They've got to walk all the way from
- 37:39Speaker 2: the city in Melbourne to their place. I won't say
- 37:43Speaker 2: where exactly and secure the road because the trams are
- 37:47Speaker 2: blocked every single time. I mean, how long is this
- 37:50Speaker 2: going to go on for? And another viewer is complaining,
- 37:53Speaker 2: I said the aircraft singpoor airlines hit a Downdrup bang
- 37:58Speaker 2: one hundred and ten meters just like that. He said, no, no,
- 38:02Speaker 2: all the reports that it descended six thousand feet in
- 38:06Speaker 2: five minutes, that is true, that's what reports said. But
- 38:10Speaker 2: the rest was a controlled, quick descent. I mean it
- 38:14Speaker 2: might have been scary, but it wasn't like, you know,
- 38:16Speaker 2: bottom like that a whole six thousand feet. Hope that
- 38:19Speaker 2: clears it up. Now has anyone seen this bloke? This
- 38:25Speaker 2: is your immigration minister. Sadly he's gone missing yet again
- 38:30Speaker 2: and no one seeing any hide nor hair of him.
- 38:33Speaker 2: Not a word from this bloke. And the reason, of
- 38:35Speaker 2: course is simple, because yet again there's been an immigration disarser.
- 38:40Speaker 2: Unfortunately this one fatal. Andrew Jarles, immigration minister, in January,
- 38:46Speaker 2: issued a new directive. He said if non citizens come
- 38:49Speaker 2: before a decision maker charge with the crime. Please be
- 38:53Speaker 2: more careful before you throw them out of the country
- 38:56Speaker 2: if they've lived in Australia from a very young age.
- 39:00Speaker 2: He's talking about someone like Emmanuel Saki, who's now twenty nine,
- 39:04Speaker 2: but he came to Australia from Sudan on a humanitarian
- 39:08Speaker 2: visa when he was just twelve years old. Unfortunately, Saki
- 39:12Speaker 2: since then has proved we're absolute mugs that let him in.
- 39:15Speaker 2: He's got a long crunal record, spend jail time a
- 39:18Speaker 2: couple of times, including for reckless threats to kill, assaults,
- 39:23Speaker 2: choking a person unconscious, and eventually he was told well
- 39:27Speaker 2: out you go, visa canceled, see you later. But then
- 39:31Speaker 2: this Ssaki appeared before a deputy president of the Minister
- 39:34Speaker 2: of Biels Tribunal under Jarles' new rules, and the deputy
- 39:39Speaker 2: president said, nah, actually you can stay. You've been here
- 39:44Speaker 2: so long. Got to give considerable way to that. Plus,
- 39:48Speaker 2: of course, says he said, there's not a high risk
- 39:51Speaker 2: of reoffending. Sadly, Saki has now been charged with murdering
- 39:57Speaker 2: a man in Brisbane on Mother'stday. This man now Jarles
- 40:02Speaker 2: isn't fronting the media to talk about this, but the
- 40:05Speaker 2: Opposition leader sure is.
- 40:08Speaker 6: As you can read in the judgment, this person would
- 40:10Speaker 6: have stayed in the position of having their visa canceled
- 40:15Speaker 6: if the old rules had have applied, not the new
- 40:18Speaker 6: ones that mister Albanezy introduced, and Minister Giles needs to
- 40:22Speaker 6: front the media today to explain the reasons and why
- 40:26Speaker 6: this person was allowed out into the community.
- 40:29Speaker 2: Joining is the panel fit a liberal MP? Garth Hamilton
- 40:32Speaker 2: and Evelyn ray Scone his contributor farmer regular commentator on
- 40:36Speaker 2: this show. Garth, where is Andrew Jarles.
- 40:44Speaker 8: Wherever he is, He's clearly in over his head. I'm
- 40:47Speaker 8: sure he's going to pop up next week and question
- 40:49Speaker 8: time with a very snide set of answers or carefully
- 40:51Speaker 8: prepared because how this is somehow someone else's fault, This
- 40:55Speaker 8: is Peter Dutton's fault, or this is the fault of
- 40:57Speaker 8: the aat at somebody else. That's what he's been doing
- 41:00Speaker 8: all the way through every one of his blunders. But
- 41:02Speaker 8: let's be very very clear the result here, the release
- 41:06Speaker 8: of this gentleman, is the explicit desire of the minister.
- 41:10Speaker 8: That's exactly what his directive required, and there's only two
- 41:14Speaker 8: options here Andrew. Either Minister Giles accepts that this is
- 41:19Speaker 8: what he wanted, or accepts that he is so unable
- 41:23Speaker 8: to understand the consequences of his directive that he couldn't
- 41:27Speaker 8: foresee this very clear outcome happening. Either way, it's not great.
- 41:31Speaker 8: This is a minister who has presided now over multiple,
- 41:36Speaker 8: multiple failings. This is a very serious one and this
- 41:39Speaker 8: goes right to the heart of the intentions of this government.
- 41:42Speaker 8: This isn't an accent. I don't believe at all. This
- 41:44Speaker 8: is exactly what this government was hoping to do. And
- 41:48Speaker 8: the consequences are terrible and it's a very very sad day.
- 41:53Speaker 2: Well, we don't know about the consequences because we do
- 41:55Speaker 2: not know that this man is quite right. You know,
- 41:59Speaker 2: that's for to decide, So we don't know that. But
- 42:03Speaker 2: I have to say, Eblan Ray, what would you like
- 42:05Speaker 2: Andrew Jolson front up and explain exactly.
- 42:09Speaker 12: Well, first of all, Andrew of course is in hiding,
- 42:12Speaker 12: and he's in hiding because there is absolutely no defense
- 42:17Speaker 12: for his pitiful actions. You know, this is a perfect
- 42:21Speaker 12: example of putting the safety of Australians last, and that
- 42:25Speaker 12: is the opposite of what our politicians should be doing
- 42:28Speaker 12: for us. I mean, you would be prosecuted for letting
- 42:31Speaker 12: looser dangerous dog on a society. Yet these politicians, these magistrates,
- 42:36Speaker 12: these judges, all these people in charge who continually let
- 42:40Speaker 12: these violent thugs go at our expense suffer absolutely no consequences.
- 42:45Speaker 12: So you know what I would like to him.
- 42:47Speaker 2: To explain Again, I've got to say, we do not
- 42:49Speaker 2: know whether this guy is guilty of murder. We know
- 42:52Speaker 2: it's charged with murder. We also do know that it's
- 42:54Speaker 2: got a criminal record that's quite serious, and I thought
- 42:58Speaker 2: would have disqualified his right to be here, But there
- 43:02Speaker 2: you go. Look, the whole thing is quite weird. And
- 43:04Speaker 2: I think Garth, you're right, he has a front up
- 43:07Speaker 2: a question time, but I think it run dead. He'll
- 43:09Speaker 2: say I cannot comment about a case that's before the courts.
- 43:13Speaker 2: I think that'll be his get out there, honestly. But
- 43:18Speaker 2: the Prime Minister, he's still running dead on the jew
- 43:22Speaker 2: hatred that's out there. And we gave some examples of
- 43:25Speaker 2: some of the extraordinary scenes on the streets now and
- 43:28Speaker 2: it's getting worse. A bakery in Western Sydney has now
- 43:32Speaker 2: baked a Hummus theme cake for children's body. That's a
- 43:36Speaker 2: cake to celebrate terrorists, a group that's actually banned in
- 43:39Speaker 2: Australia as a terrorist group that committed the rapes and
- 43:42Speaker 2: beheadings and slaughter on October seven. And the party even
- 43:46Speaker 2: had children dressed as humas terrists too with Hammas decorations.
- 43:51Speaker 2: Garth Hamilton, I cannot. I know it's a track line,
- 43:56Speaker 2: but it's literally true. I cannot recognize the country I
- 44:00Speaker 2: grew up in what I'm seeing now. What's happened?
- 44:05Speaker 8: I think I know what's happened, Andrew. The harsh truth
- 44:08Speaker 8: is that for a long time we've been afraid to
- 44:12Speaker 8: stand up and say what has been happening. That there
- 44:14Speaker 8: has been a significant disconnect in the way that this
- 44:17Speaker 8: country has been and the way that this country is becoming,
- 44:20Speaker 8: what it's moving towards. This isn't something that happened over night.
- 44:23Speaker 8: You don't just allt of a sudden have a terrorists
- 44:28Speaker 8: being celebrated at a children's birthday party. That's not something
- 44:32Speaker 8: that happens by accident. There's been a long, slow march
- 44:35Speaker 8: that has happened here and we've eroded. I think something
- 44:39Speaker 8: very important in Australia. How on earth we could walk
- 44:43Speaker 8: past this and let this happen to become a country
- 44:46Speaker 8: where this sort of thing could take place. Honestly, I
- 44:49Speaker 8: actually feel terrible for future of the young kids. What
- 44:53Speaker 8: kind of message are they growing up with? What kind
- 44:55Speaker 8: of warped messages are they being given? And how on earth?
- 45:01Speaker 8: And I was speaking earlier before I came when your show.
- 45:03Speaker 8: I was speaking to a senior Australian Jewish leader and
- 45:08Speaker 8: we were just bemoaning how we got to this point.
- 45:10Speaker 8: This isn't the Australia that we grew up and this
- 45:13Speaker 8: is what we were proud of. This isn't what my
- 45:15Speaker 8: grandparents fought for on foreign soil. We've gone wrong and
- 45:21Speaker 8: I think, Andrew, we've gone way too far.
- 45:25Speaker 2: How have we gone wrong? Evelyn Ray?
- 45:28Speaker 12: Look, I've said it before, Andrew, and I've said it
- 45:31Speaker 12: multiple times, But if you want a multicultural society, if
- 45:34Speaker 12: you want to import people with fundamental different belief systems
- 45:39Speaker 12: to our own, with allegiances to you know, groups or
- 45:43Speaker 12: organizations that our government deems a terrorist organization, then unfortunately,
- 45:49Speaker 12: this is the consequence of that.
- 45:50Speaker 9: We're going to.
- 45:51Speaker 12: See these things playing out in our own soil. And
- 45:55Speaker 12: you know, there's not a law that the government can
- 45:58Speaker 12: pass to stop it. That's the sad reality because we
- 46:01Speaker 12: have to acknowledge the fact that when you import people,
- 46:05Speaker 12: you don't just import really nice takeaway foods or spices.
- 46:08Speaker 12: You don't just you know, import someone that you live
- 46:10Speaker 12: next to, and you know that trumps everything. But you
- 46:13Speaker 12: import ideologies, You import ideas, not just the individual person.
- 46:18Speaker 12: And that's what we're seeing playing out. So I think
- 46:22Speaker 12: that the problems that we're facing have like garths that
- 46:26Speaker 12: have been here for a very long time, because I
- 46:28Speaker 12: don't think we've been careful enough with who we're letting
- 46:31Speaker 12: into our country and what we're allowing people with fundamental
- 46:35Speaker 12: differences get away with for a really long time.
- 46:40Speaker 2: I think that's correct. I think there's been a denial
- 46:42Speaker 2: of the fact that you don't import just the person
- 46:44Speaker 2: you import, of course the cultural assumptions that come with them,
- 46:47Speaker 2: for good or for bad, or for just difficult, that's all,
- 46:52Speaker 2: you know. I wonder whether it's just naivety. Well, it
- 46:55Speaker 2: is naivety. It struck me ever since I was young,
- 46:59Speaker 2: and you know, backpacking when I was seventeen, all that
- 47:02Speaker 2: kind of thing overseas Australians and included myself very keen
- 47:08Speaker 2: to please, to believe the best of people. We are
- 47:11Speaker 2: the people who tipmost, who are nicest. It seems to
- 47:14Speaker 2: always seemed to me nicest the foreigners. When we're traveling.
- 47:18Speaker 2: We didn't want to offend anyone. We didn't haggle at
- 47:20Speaker 2: markets or anything like that. You know, we were we
- 47:24Speaker 2: had big, wide eyes and wanted to embrace. And I
- 47:27Speaker 2: think we ignore the fact that people don't always mean
- 47:32Speaker 2: the best, they don't always think as you do. They
- 47:35Speaker 2: do have different values. And I think we've run the
- 47:38Speaker 2: immigration policy in the same way, and the refusal to
- 47:42Speaker 2: criticize or to demand assimilation comes from this same sort
- 47:46Speaker 2: of too desperate eagerness to please.
- 47:51Speaker 8: I hope we stay with some of those simple, wonderful
- 47:55Speaker 8: elements of what it was to be Australia. I hope
- 47:57Speaker 8: some of those things stay with us, Andrew, I really do.
- 48:00Speaker 8: But yeah, we also have to acknowledge that there are
- 48:02Speaker 8: countries out there that don't wish us well, and people
- 48:04Speaker 8: who don't believe in the things that we believe in,
- 48:08Speaker 8: and sometimes look, boil and water just don't mix.
- 48:13Speaker 2: I would have thought the penny should have dropped even
- 48:15Speaker 2: with John Howard, who was not so naive, set up
- 48:19Speaker 2: a Muslim Advisory Council and we find that it was
- 48:22Speaker 2: nearly nearly half the membership. We're supporters of Hezbollah, which
- 48:26Speaker 2: is another terrorist group, this one in Lebanon. Gath Hamilton, Hamilton,
- 48:31Speaker 2: Evely and Ray thank you both for your time. Well
- 48:35Speaker 2: that's it for me. Coming up now is Sharry Marx
- 48:38Speaker 2: and like I said, she's got an exclusive that I
- 48:41Speaker 2: think you'll be very interested in involving poor channel known
- 48:44Speaker 2: good note
