- 0:10Speaker 1: It's the report.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Tonight. Donald Trump calls around the leaders scum after all,
- 0:19Speaker 2: and sends in the bombers, what's his real game? I'll
- 0:22Speaker 2: talk to a top general who advised him. Paulin Hanson
- 0:27Speaker 2: meanwhile goes on the podcast of British thug Tommy Robinson,
- 0:30Speaker 2: the man who costs Karl Stefanovic his job. I'll talk
- 0:33Speaker 2: to Barnaby Joyce about that, and Anthony Albanize his strange
- 0:37Speaker 2: behavior today sucking up to India's Prime Minister in Melbourne,
- 0:41Speaker 2: and plenty more. But first, the ABC finally got put
- 0:47Speaker 2: on the rack today in the Royal Commission for its
- 0:50Speaker 2: role in spreading this tsunami of jee hatred, in this
- 0:53Speaker 2: case by being so incredibly hostile to Israel. But before
- 0:58Speaker 2: I show you that, entree a funny but sinister example
- 1:04Speaker 2: of the insane hatred of Israel on the streets at
- 1:07Speaker 2: the moment, here's how many of rebel news that approachest
- 1:10Speaker 2: in Melbourne interviewing a transgender rights activist in a Palestinian Kefia.
- 1:16Speaker 3: Gazans have solidarity with trans people. Yeah, usually have you
- 1:20Speaker 3: ever seen what they do to trans people in Gaza?
- 1:24Speaker 4: I think that that's what the IDF does to trans people.
- 1:26Speaker 3: How many gay pride parades have there been in Gaza?
- 1:30Speaker 4: Well, I mean, how many people have been killed in Gaza.
- 1:32Speaker 4: They can't do pride parades at the moment. They can't
- 1:35Speaker 4: even accept gay people because they're going through so much
- 1:40Speaker 4: other stuff.
- 1:41Speaker 5: How are you meant to so?
- 1:43Speaker 1: You think?
- 1:43Speaker 4: You think?
- 1:45Speaker 6: So?
- 1:45Speaker 3: You think the unacceptance of gay and trans people in
- 1:47Speaker 3: Gaza is because of the Israelis.
- 1:49Speaker 4: I think it's. Yeah, I think it's because of fear,
- 1:51Speaker 4: and I think it's because of that.
- 1:52Speaker 3: I think as I do with their radical religion, I
- 1:55Speaker 3: think no.
- 1:59Speaker 2: I would bet a penny to a pound that's an
- 2:02Speaker 2: ABC audience member. I guess in fact, this kind of
- 2:07Speaker 2: irrational hatred of Israel is so bad that Israel's ambassador
- 2:11Speaker 2: to Israel to Australia has written in The Australian Today
- 2:15Speaker 2: that the obsessive, multi range, wild unfounded accusations thrown time
- 2:19Speaker 2: and time again at Israel are not legitimate criticism. To him,
- 2:23Speaker 2: they are a manifestation of anti Semitism. He says, throughout
- 2:27Speaker 2: my twenty six year career as an Israeli diplomat, I
- 2:31Speaker 2: have never seen such levels of hatred of Israel and
- 2:34Speaker 2: of Jews, as I experience and witness here in Australia
- 2:40Speaker 2: and now after the Bondai massaca, many Jews are turning
- 2:43Speaker 2: on the ABC for its role. They are horrified by
- 2:47Speaker 2: its top to bottom bias against Israel that's been feeding
- 2:52Speaker 2: this due hatred. Here's Victoria Teplitsky, she's a daughter of
- 2:57Speaker 2: one of the victims of Bondai calling out the see
- 3:00Speaker 2: in fact getting right in the face of ABC presenters.
- 3:04Speaker 7: And ABC I've got to say, will you cut out
- 3:09Speaker 7: the biased reporting.
- 3:12Speaker 5: Mainstream media? We feel with yeah, will you? Will you
- 3:15Speaker 5: cut it out?
- 3:19Speaker 2: So today the Royal Commission into into Anti Semitism we
- 3:23Speaker 2: put the ABC in the dock. But I've got to
- 3:26Speaker 2: say treated it far too gently there in my opinion.
- 3:30Speaker 2: You just wait until I give my examples. Well that said,
- 3:34Speaker 2: you know it did start by calling as a witness
- 3:36Speaker 2: Jillian Siegal, the Government's News Special Envoy on Anti Semitism.
- 3:43Speaker 8: I'm hearing from important stakeholders of mind, how concerned they are,
- 3:47Speaker 8: how grieved they are, how they feel that they're trusted
- 3:51Speaker 8: broadcaster is not being fair and accurate. I would like
- 3:57Speaker 8: the ABC to be as good as it possibly could be.
- 4:03Speaker 2: More for them forever, having trusted the ABC in the
- 4:06Speaker 2: first place. But the ABC denies everything. Our taxpayer funded
- 4:10Speaker 2: national broadcaster put out a statement claiming it's reporting has
- 4:14Speaker 2: been evidence based, fair, impartial and consistent with its charter
- 4:19Speaker 2: obligations and is sent to the Royal Commission today. The
- 4:22Speaker 2: Executive is supposed to check that it isn't bassed and
- 4:26Speaker 2: who said the same thing.
- 4:28Speaker 9: What I'm focused on is to make sure that we're
- 4:30Speaker 9: meeting our standards and that our content meets those standards
- 4:33Speaker 9: around impartiality, accuracy, fairness and the like.
- 4:40Speaker 2: Now again, to be fair, the Royal Commission did raise
- 4:43Speaker 2: with Fang, Gavin Fange. There's some examples, but just the
- 4:47Speaker 2: couple of ABC biased, like the day that it was
- 4:50Speaker 2: so stupidly biased as to report this claim by you,
- 4:54Speaker 2: an official, as a fact when it was obviously a
- 4:58Speaker 2: particularly mad example of the not the nation's own hatred
- 5:02Speaker 2: of Israel, a claim that Israel was about to save
- 5:06Speaker 2: thousands of guards of children to death. There are fourteen
- 5:10Speaker 2: thousand babies that will die in the next forty eight
- 5:12Speaker 2: hours unless we can reach them. Fourteen thousand in a
- 5:19Speaker 2: day two. I mean, seriously, the ABC reported that at
- 5:24Speaker 2: six am our time, even though the UN itself had
- 5:27Speaker 2: already admitted three hours early it wasn't right, and it
- 5:30Speaker 2: kept reporting it all the way up to four pm,
- 5:34Speaker 2: when it finally admitted on one little heard ABC radio
- 5:38Speaker 2: show that this was an exaggeration. Well that night and
- 5:41Speaker 2: Sky has said far more than that, And the ABC
- 5:44Speaker 2: didn't do a proper wider correction for another week, a
- 5:50Speaker 2: whole week after I'd exposed the whole light right here.
- 5:55Speaker 9: We wanted to make sure that the error had not
- 5:58Speaker 9: been replicated in other plays. The nature of the modern
- 6:03Speaker 9: media is that television video items might appear on how
- 6:09Speaker 9: social media feeds on other places, So it took some
- 6:13Speaker 9: time to make sure that we were able to pull
- 6:15Speaker 9: down all of those elements and to do a correction
- 6:18Speaker 9: once that had happened.
- 6:22Speaker 2: Now, the other example of bars that the Commission raised
- 6:25Speaker 2: with the ABC suit you heard but didn't see. There
- 6:29Speaker 2: was an ABC report that Israel had again bombed Gaza Terrible,
- 6:35Speaker 2: without actually mentioning that this bombing was in response to
- 6:39Speaker 2: hamasteris in Gaza firing rockets at civilians at Tel Aviv.
- 6:45Speaker 2: But let me now tell you of some of the many, many,
- 6:48Speaker 2: many examples of ABC bars against Israel that have exposed
- 6:52Speaker 2: on the show. I don't know for how long once
- 6:56Speaker 2: that the Royal Commission did not mention. For instance, since
- 7:00Speaker 2: here is ABC correspondent John Lyons, typically hostile to Israel
- 7:03Speaker 2: on the very day the US attacked Iran, suggesting that
- 7:07Speaker 2: old trope of Jews, or in this case, Israeli's controlling
- 7:11Speaker 2: politicians around the world like pubbits, even almost in this case,
- 7:16Speaker 2: dictating the words that US President Donald Trump used to
- 7:19Speaker 2: declare war.
- 7:21Speaker 10: That's Israel's agenda.
- 7:22Speaker 9: That's Israel's talking points, not the United States.
- 7:26Speaker 2: That speech could have been written and delivered by Benjamin
- 7:29Speaker 2: Etta and Yahoo.
- 7:29Speaker 10: This is being driven by Israel.
- 7:34Speaker 2: Oh, there's cunning israelis Here's the ABC's Sarah Ferguson insisting
- 7:39Speaker 2: that the killing of an Australian aid worker was not
- 7:43Speaker 2: the tragic mistake, that all the evidence in Israeli guess
- 7:46Speaker 2: suggest that.
- 7:48Speaker 1: We've taken responsibility for the mistake.
- 7:50Speaker 7: Peter Lerna, I'm not accepting your view that it's a mistake.
- 7:56Speaker 2: Here is John Lyons again falsely suggesting that Israel was
- 7:59Speaker 2: attacking Lebanon and implying that Israel had started it.
- 8:05Speaker 9: Another one of Israel's wars in the Middle East, of course,
- 8:09Speaker 9: is with Lebanon, where I am.
- 8:13Speaker 2: In fact, Israel is not at war with Lebanon, but
- 8:17Speaker 2: with Iranian funded Hesbela terrorists who captured Lebanese territory and
- 8:21Speaker 2: from there are firing rockets when missiles at civilians in Israel,
- 8:27Speaker 2: and Israel was only responding to exactly that. Now I
- 8:32Speaker 2: could go on all night with more examples. Yeah, I
- 8:35Speaker 2: could mention all the Israel haters of the ABC is hard,
- 8:39Speaker 2: including one of the latest is Grace Tame who called
- 8:44Speaker 2: for a war against Israel right here just after the
- 8:47Speaker 2: Bondo massacre.
- 8:49Speaker 8: From Galigal to Gaza Globalize the Incha.
- 8:52Speaker 6: Fial won my time, from Gaigol to.
- 8:55Speaker 5: Gaza global.
- 9:01Speaker 2: Now I could also mention how the ABC fell for
- 9:04Speaker 2: a completely unlikely story of Israel starving this child in
- 9:10Speaker 2: Gaza when some research would have shown that that child's
- 9:14Speaker 2: sibling was well fed. And the reason is that the
- 9:19Speaker 2: skeletal child you see was actually suffering a congenital condition.
- 9:25Speaker 2: Now this ABC fish ross from the head. ABC chairman
- 9:31Speaker 2: Kim Williams recently vilified Israeli pro mister Benjaminettnehu, saying it was,
- 9:36Speaker 2: frankly an adbarent creature in the history of Israel, A creature, right,
- 9:42Speaker 2: a creature. The ABC's Onmberdsman did say, though later this
- 9:48Speaker 2: after that Gavin Fang had given his evidence, she did say,
- 9:52Speaker 2: all right, when you strip out a couple of outlier programs,
- 9:55Speaker 2: even a lot of ABC viewers think that the ABC
- 9:59Speaker 2: coverage during this war has been to anti Israel.
- 10:04Speaker 6: Throughout that period, fifty two percent of complainants have said
- 10:12Speaker 6: that the ABC is pro Palestine in its coverage of
- 10:18Speaker 6: the Middle East conflicts, and forty five percent have said
- 10:23Speaker 6: that it is pro Israel in the coverage of the
- 10:26Speaker 6: Middle East.
- 10:29Speaker 2: Now, if you know, judge things by take measure, if
- 10:34Speaker 2: you think, well, you know those figures, it's pretty close
- 10:37Speaker 2: to fifty to fifty. Yeah, half think it's to pro Israel.
- 10:40Speaker 2: I think it's too pro Palestinian. Well, that means the
- 10:45Speaker 2: ABC is pretty balanced. Remember, the ABC audience is itself
- 10:49Speaker 2: left leaning. The ABC is no conservative host of any
- 10:53Speaker 2: current affairs show. Yet even an ABC audience still thinks,
- 10:57Speaker 2: after all that coaching this BIS is too much. And second,
- 11:03Speaker 2: for every Jew in Australia, there are about seven Muslims
- 11:07Speaker 2: Jews are outnumbered in any campaign to complain of ABC bias,
- 11:12Speaker 2: So don't listen to the figures. And I wonder, you know,
- 11:17Speaker 2: is this Royal Commission now going to hold the ABC
- 11:20Speaker 2: to account at last for its vile history of bias
- 11:24Speaker 2: against Israel and Zionists. Well, I don't know. But when
- 11:31Speaker 2: it refuses to hit the ABC's bias watchdog man with
- 11:36Speaker 2: example after example of the ABC's culture of contempt for Israel,
- 11:42Speaker 2: I'm not optimistic. The ABC, after all, is the broadcaster
- 11:47Speaker 2: of and four and buy our bureaucratic class, and is
- 11:52Speaker 2: now being judged by that class. But you you can
- 11:58Speaker 2: judge this for yourself. Now, Pauline Hansen has just made
- 12:08Speaker 2: a big moral and political mistake. She's in London and
- 12:11Speaker 2: has recorded a podcast with a far right thug and
- 12:14Speaker 2: convicted criminal, Tommy Robinson, the man that Carl Stephanovik interviewed
- 12:18Speaker 2: and called a hero, which got him sacked by a
- 12:20Speaker 2: Channel nine. Now we'll learn later what Hanson said in
- 12:23Speaker 2: the podcast. Maybe she attacked Robinson, I don't know, but
- 12:27Speaker 2: from the promo of it it sounds like a love
- 12:30Speaker 2: in between two people who are against mass immigration in Islam.
- 12:33Speaker 2: Because Robinson has promoted with a post calling Hanson one
- 12:36Speaker 2: of the bravest ladies spelt like that and completely wrong
- 12:40Speaker 2: on the planet. Fearless, relentless, consistent farting for the Australian
- 12:44Speaker 2: people and hopefully the next leader of our nation or
- 12:47Speaker 2: her nation. Now let me explain why it's a mistake. First, morally,
- 12:53Speaker 2: of course, because as I've told you before, Robinson is
- 12:55Speaker 2: a nasty piece of work. Has been convicted of assault
- 12:58Speaker 2: once for bashing and off duty pla he's been trying
- 13:00Speaker 2: to protect his Robinson's girlfriend from him. This, has been
- 13:05Speaker 2: convicted of assault, mortgage fraud, using a false passport, and
- 13:08Speaker 2: stalking and harassing a female journalist outside her own home.
- 13:12Speaker 2: How frightening would that be? And no, he hasn't exposed
- 13:15Speaker 2: in a Muslim rape gag like his fans claim others did.
- 13:19Speaker 2: That he just whipped up a dangerous mob. And that
- 13:23Speaker 2: documentary that he made about exposing a Muslim bully, that's
- 13:26Speaker 2: another line. It's seen a video go viral about a
- 13:31Speaker 2: fifteen year old Syrian boy fifteen years old getting picked
- 13:35Speaker 2: on by again at school, a boy who already had
- 13:37Speaker 2: his rist spoken by what seemed like earlier bullying attacks
- 13:40Speaker 2: of which there had been many, And Robinson then made
- 13:42Speaker 2: up a totally untrue story that the real bully was
- 13:45Speaker 2: this fifteen year old. He claimed this boy had beaten
- 13:49Speaker 2: a white girl black and blue and threatened to stab someone.
- 13:54Speaker 2: But the judge went through all the claims decided they
- 13:59Speaker 2: were or completely misremembered or whatever, exposed it in a
- 14:05Speaker 2: judgment that you can read online. But Robinson repeated all
- 14:10Speaker 2: this again and for that was jailed for contempt of court.
- 14:12Speaker 2: For Hanson now to consort with this lying, violent child,
- 14:16Speaker 2: bullying street fighter and making even more influential, it's not
- 14:19Speaker 2: just a terrible moral mistake, it's also a political one.
- 14:23Speaker 2: Because Hanson is so high in the pole, she doesn't
- 14:25Speaker 2: need to do these cheap stunts. In fact that I
- 14:29Speaker 2: think they're her enemy right now. What she does need
- 14:31Speaker 2: is to be normal. Normal now will be mad enough.
- 14:36Speaker 2: Now one nation has the votes at the moment poles
- 14:40Speaker 2: say it, But what it doesn't have is enough candidates
- 14:43Speaker 2: with the experience and talent. She needs to actually look
- 14:47Speaker 2: like a potential government and win government. Now, these are
- 14:51Speaker 2: candidates that she wants who would have to then risk
- 14:55Speaker 2: their reputation by joining one nation. Right, But now they
- 14:58Speaker 2: see handsome fawning over a this violent, lying thug and
- 15:01Speaker 2: treating him with some kind of authority. Joining me Seth Thursday,
- 15:05Speaker 2: Regular One Nation MP Bannaby Joyce, the former Prime Minister
- 15:08Speaker 2: Barnaby Pauline Hanson recording a podcast with this thug Tommy Robinson.
- 15:13Speaker 2: Doesn't that embarrass you in One Nation?
- 15:16Speaker 11: Well, I have to see the podcast, obviously, Andrew. I
- 15:20Speaker 11: haven't seen yet, and I'll have an opinion after I've
- 15:23Speaker 11: watched it. What we've seen, unfortunately in England is there
- 15:28Speaker 11: is a polarization of the political debate without the shadow
- 15:31Speaker 11: of doubt, and it's something we don't want here, that polarization.
- 15:36Speaker 1: The last council elections.
- 15:37Speaker 11: I think there was about five hundred and seventy or
- 15:39Speaker 11: so people who clearly identified as working towards an Islamic
- 15:48Speaker 11: form of England, so about one every ten and that
- 15:51Speaker 11: has repercussions. There's always going to be a pushback of
- 15:55Speaker 11: another sort. I suppose mister Robinson represents that pushback, but
- 15:59Speaker 11: I haven't seen the castle have more of an opinion
- 16:02Speaker 11: on after I've seen that.
- 16:05Speaker 2: Well, I agree with you, we do not want such
- 16:07Speaker 2: polarization here and that would include not holding out Tommy
- 16:11Speaker 2: Robinson as someone you should be talking to. I think
- 16:13Speaker 2: it's a disgrace. The Prime Minister today put on a
- 16:16Speaker 2: big welcome for India's Prime minister and announced has signed
- 16:20Speaker 2: a great deal that to me actually underlines this government's manness.
- 16:24Speaker 2: This is this.
- 16:26Speaker 12: Today we can confirm the signing of the Administry of
- 16:29Speaker 12: arrangement to enable uranium exports to India for peaceful purposes
- 16:34Speaker 12: under the twenty fifteen Australia India Nuclear Cooperation Agreement. The
- 16:41Speaker 12: arrangement facilitates Australian uranium exports to India to help increase
- 16:46Speaker 12: the share of non fossil fuel power capacity.
- 16:52Speaker 2: Banaby Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, said, yes,
- 16:56Speaker 2: this is going to help us to get zero missions
- 16:58Speaker 2: for India. Can you explain to me how this government
- 17:03Speaker 2: here bans us from using that very same uranium for
- 17:07Speaker 2: ourselves when it's very happy to sell it to India
- 17:12Speaker 2: as a weapon to fight global warming.
- 17:15Speaker 11: Make that make sense, Oh, it can's very easy. They're morons,
- 17:19Speaker 11: that's how. That's why, total morons. I just don't understand
- 17:22Speaker 11: this sort of imbecilic approach to nuclear technology, which is
- 17:27Speaker 11: abundantly used around every other section of the glow where
- 17:31Speaker 11: we werew Great scientists such as doctor mark Hoe is
- 17:35Speaker 11: going to the United States to develop microreactors. Something could
- 17:38Speaker 11: be hundreds of billions of dollar industry for Australia. But
- 17:42Speaker 11: it's insane. We do have a nuclear reactor. It's called
- 17:45Speaker 11: Lucas Heights. It's been there since the nineteen fifties. It's
- 17:48Speaker 11: bang smack in the middle of Sydney and no one
- 17:50Speaker 11: gives a toss about it. But somehow we've got caught
- 17:53Speaker 11: in this zeitgeist, this tribal zeitgeist of the left, where
- 17:57Speaker 11: you can't say nuclear energy, believing that we're somehow potonium plants.
- 18:02Speaker 11: Potonium is highly and rich uranium up to ninety percent
- 18:05Speaker 11: for a nuclear weapon. Just so your listeners, No, a
- 18:09Speaker 11: nuclear power plant isn't rich about three to five percent.
- 18:12Speaker 2: Completely different animal.
- 18:14Speaker 11: But you know everyone else is just looking at us
- 18:17Speaker 11: and laughing at us because we just seem to we
- 18:19Speaker 11: want to be in basilic. We've de industrialized Australia with
- 18:22Speaker 11: into minute power. We decide we don't want nuclear, but
- 18:24Speaker 11: we do want windmills and solar panels. And now we're
- 18:26Speaker 11: going to shut down our national highway so we can
- 18:28Speaker 11: get foreign owned wind wind turbines up Australian rows to
- 18:33Speaker 11: go to foreign owned in the minute power precincts to
- 18:35Speaker 11: bubohvite incredibly expensive power underwritten by the taxpayer through secret
- 18:40Speaker 11: capacity investment scans. We can do all that, but we
- 18:43Speaker 11: can't have nuclear power.
- 18:46Speaker 2: But Banaby, you forgot the the I really mastered the system.
- 18:50Speaker 2: Anytime we talk about that, and it's all for nothing.
- 18:53Speaker 2: It will not change the climate. We're too small to
- 18:57Speaker 2: make a difference. I mean, it's just insane, even by
- 19:01Speaker 2: its own standards. Bannaby Joyce, thank you so much for
- 19:04Speaker 2: your time. It really is insane. After the break, well,
- 19:11Speaker 2: Donald Trump takes real exception to Iran's leaders, calls them scum.
- 19:17Speaker 2: What's really going on in Iran? With this American attack? Now?
- 19:28Speaker 2: US President Donald Trump explained overnight why he was going
- 19:31Speaker 2: back to war with Iran. Well, up to a point,
- 19:36Speaker 2: I think it's over. I don't want to deal with him.
- 19:39Speaker 1: And with there's scum.
- 19:40Speaker 2: You know what scum is. There's gum, there's sick people.
- 19:43Speaker 13: They're led by sick people, and they're vicious, violent people.
- 19:48Speaker 13: And if they had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it.
- 19:53Speaker 2: Well, I actually thought and said that was pretty obvious
- 19:57Speaker 2: right from the start. But it did seem that Trump
- 20:00Speaker 2: he has finally realized that Iruan civilian leaders really were
- 20:04Speaker 2: lying to him, to his negotiators, stringing them along with
- 20:07Speaker 2: air talk of peace, and only now has he got
- 20:11Speaker 2: to know them, he says, know them and their tricks.
- 20:15Speaker 10: Last month, you said Iranian leaders were very rational people
- 20:18Speaker 10: and nice people to deal with, strong people, smart people.
- 20:21Speaker 1: Today you said they were scum, sick.
- 20:23Speaker 9: People and being led by sick people.
- 20:25Speaker 2: What changed? And do you think that?
- 20:27Speaker 1: I guy don't know.
- 20:32Speaker 2: I should watch the Bolt report. It would have been
- 20:34Speaker 2: wiser sooner. It seems that the last straw was Iran
- 20:39Speaker 2: attacking three oil tankers in the straight up mus on
- 20:42Speaker 2: the weekend, breaking his promise to let ships pass. But
- 20:46Speaker 2: for now the US strikes are relatively limited. The US
- 20:51Speaker 2: Sentcom Command says it hit about eighty Iranian military targets
- 20:54Speaker 2: on Tuesday, including more than six of the Islamic Revolutionary
- 20:58Speaker 2: Guard Court small boats used to attack shipping, although yesterday
- 21:02Speaker 2: it did step this up to about ninety military targets,
- 21:06Speaker 2: including air defense systems, coastal surveillance miss island, drones, storage sites.
- 21:12Speaker 2: So what's really going on? What's the real plan here?
- 21:15Speaker 2: I spoke earlier to General Jack Keane, who is a
- 21:18Speaker 2: former Vice Chief of Staff of the United States Army
- 21:21Speaker 2: who's now chairman of the Institute for the Study of War,
- 21:24Speaker 2: and he was consulted on the initial US war plans
- 21:28Speaker 2: and briefed the President. General Jack Keane, it's a pleasure
- 21:32Speaker 2: to see you again. Is this really a full out war?
- 21:36Speaker 2: Once more? It seems more limited these strikes than before.
- 21:40Speaker 2: So what are the real objectives here?
- 21:44Speaker 14: Yeah, so you're absolutely right, it's not a full out war.
- 21:47Speaker 14: We're not returning to major combat operations. Obviously Israel is
- 21:52Speaker 14: not participating in it, and the targets are largely limited
- 21:57Speaker 14: to the coastal areas in the nity of the Straits
- 22:01Speaker 14: of a Mouse, and the focus here and the objective
- 22:06Speaker 14: is to force Oran to stop interfering with the straits
- 22:10Speaker 14: of a Mooves. That is clearly the issue. It leans
- 22:16Speaker 14: itself to potential escalation into considerably more attacks, and more
- 22:23Speaker 14: attacks of greater significance than what has been administered here.
- 22:27Speaker 2: It seems a little bit at odds the limited nature
- 22:30Speaker 2: of it with the more wide ranging critique. If I
- 22:34Speaker 2: could call it that that Donald Trump leveled at the
- 22:38Speaker 2: Iranian leadership. Why do you think he changed from thinking
- 22:41Speaker 2: that Heruan civilian leaders, who are the ones that been
- 22:45Speaker 2: talking peace negotiating with the Americans, were reasonable men to
- 22:49Speaker 2: calling them scum and lies. He said one thing privately
- 22:53Speaker 2: and publicly talked tough. Is that because they were just
- 22:56Speaker 2: stringing him along? Or is it because the real power
- 22:59Speaker 2: always was says You've long said with Iran's hardline Islamic
- 23:03Speaker 2: Revolutionary God corp and it's and it's lead at Brigadier
- 23:07Speaker 2: General Ahmed Vahedi.
- 23:09Speaker 14: Yeah, I absolute believe the power of USTs with the
- 23:13Speaker 14: with the guys with the guns, and this is the
- 23:14Speaker 14: irgc UH and they control that situation. I think what
- 23:21Speaker 14: happened here Iran is masters at negotiation. I mean they're
- 23:27Speaker 14: they come in addressed very similar to people from the
- 23:31Speaker 14: United States and the West, somewhat urbane and sophisticated. They
- 23:36Speaker 14: know how to talk to us, they know how to
- 23:40Speaker 14: aspire to what our expectations are. And having spoken to
- 23:44Speaker 14: our negotiators, I got a sense of what happens to them.
- 23:49Speaker 14: And then they make promises that they have no intention
- 23:53Speaker 14: to keep our negotiators aren't making these things up. President
- 23:56Speaker 14: Trump has gotten so frustrated with the fact that they
- 24:01Speaker 14: may be sophisticated, they may talk nice, but they're bold
- 24:04Speaker 14: faced liars. And he's coming to grips with that reality.
- 24:09Speaker 14: And certainly, yes, the decision makers are not in the negotiation.
- 24:14Speaker 1: That's just a fact.
- 24:16Speaker 14: The Straits of a Mouse is something that the Iranians
- 24:20Speaker 14: have wanted to take control of for forty seven years.
- 24:24Speaker 14: They have four objectives in the Middle East, and that
- 24:28Speaker 14: is to dominate, to control the region. Two to take
- 24:31Speaker 14: control of gulf oil distribution. Three destroy the state of Israel,
- 24:37Speaker 14: and four pushed the United States military out of the
- 24:41Speaker 14: area so it loses its influence in the region. They
- 24:45Speaker 14: have been able to achieve control of the Straits of
- 24:49Speaker 14: a Mouse to some degree ever since March the second.
- 24:52Speaker 1: And they are emboldened by this, Andrew.
- 24:56Speaker 14: Because they believe they have bent the United States to
- 25:00Speaker 14: their will. And they look at the Straits of the
- 25:03Speaker 14: moves as comparable to actually a nuclear weapon. And I'm
- 25:06Speaker 14: not exaggerating here, because why it gives them geo political
- 25:10Speaker 14: influence in the region and leverage over the countries in
- 25:15Speaker 14: the region. In terms of political blackmail, similar to what
- 25:19Speaker 14: having a nuclear weapon would do for them. They are
- 25:22Speaker 14: not going to give this up willingly. We will have
- 25:26Speaker 14: to fight them for it.
- 25:28Speaker 2: In my view, General, I know that must really frustrate you.
- 25:32Speaker 2: You've always said this war. You know you didn't like
- 25:35Speaker 2: this war ending this abruptly. It had to be settled militarily,
- 25:40Speaker 2: and you know I have to say, General, I know
- 25:42Speaker 2: you don't like getting personal and destroying relationships. I put
- 25:46Speaker 2: a lot of this on Steve Wvitkoff, who I think
- 25:48Speaker 2: it's the world's worst diplomat ever. He was a patsy
- 25:52Speaker 2: for letting me a putin thought lend me putin was
- 25:54Speaker 2: you know, fair and income about, you know, negotiating peace?
- 25:58Speaker 2: There has been sold a pup. Are these guys talking
- 26:01Speaker 2: smooth and acting tough? I don't know. I think it's
- 26:04Speaker 2: that guy's got to get fired. But where is this
- 26:08Speaker 2: world going now? Do you think inevitably it will have
- 26:12Speaker 2: to be stepped up and sort it out militarily?
- 26:16Speaker 1: Yes?
- 26:17Speaker 14: I do believe that, but I don't believe that is
- 26:20Speaker 14: where we are yet. I think what the President is
- 26:24Speaker 14: going to do here if Iran continues to interfere he's
- 26:29Speaker 14: going to respond in kind along the pattern we have
- 26:33Speaker 14: just seen here, probably with some gradual escalation, but not
- 26:38Speaker 14: returning to full combat operations.
- 26:41Speaker 1: I think he wants to continue.
- 26:43Speaker 14: The negotiations and at the same time hold around accountable
- 26:49Speaker 14: for any straits of the move's interference, and still counting
- 26:54Speaker 14: that maybe the diplomacy and the negotiations will bear some fruit,
- 27:00Speaker 14: particularly as it pertains to nuclear weapons. I am completely
- 27:04Speaker 14: skeptical about that reality. They are going to recover and
- 27:10Speaker 14: rebuild and return to all of their objectives that I
- 27:14Speaker 14: laid out, and they're not going to give up on
- 27:17Speaker 14: any of it. I think that is where they truly are.
- 27:20Speaker 14: They have been recovering their ballistic missiles and their launchers
- 27:24Speaker 14: for more than a few months, a couple of months now,
- 27:27Speaker 14: and so in a nuclear enterprise, they have begun to
- 27:31Speaker 14: recover it in media reporting at Pickax Mountain, and according
- 27:36Speaker 14: to the MoU, we're supposed to maintain the status quo
- 27:40Speaker 14: no recovery, but they are clandestinely doing just that.
- 27:46Speaker 1: And what does that tell you?
- 27:47Speaker 14: That tells you that they're about wanting to recover their
- 27:50Speaker 14: nuclear program and they're about not wanting to give up
- 27:54Speaker 14: control of the straits of a mouse, and they're going
- 27:56Speaker 14: to try to delay these negotiations as much as possible,
- 28:00Speaker 14: and hopefully in their minds that President Trump will just
- 28:04Speaker 14: get so fat up with the whole thing that and
- 28:07Speaker 14: sometime some months from now he just would declare victory
- 28:11Speaker 14: and walk away.
- 28:12Speaker 2: I'll bet very big on exactly that, General, I think
- 28:15Speaker 2: you'll spot on just quickly. Finally, there's also the Ukraine War,
- 28:20Speaker 2: of course, which Russia now seems to be losing on
- 28:25Speaker 2: the ground a horrific death toll estimates of four hundred
- 28:29Speaker 2: and fifty thousand Russian dead. The President has now given
- 28:32Speaker 2: Ukraine permission to build its own patriot missiles interceptors. They'll
- 28:38Speaker 2: hand over the plans because the US doesn't have any
- 28:41Speaker 2: spare ones of its own given the war in Iran
- 28:44Speaker 2: to give to Ukraine right now when Ukraine actually needs
- 28:47Speaker 2: them to defend its cities from Russian missiles. He's the president.
- 28:52Speaker 13: We're going to give a license to you to make patriots.
- 28:55Speaker 13: That's pretty cool right this way. You can't complain that
- 28:58Speaker 13: we're not giving them enough yourself. We haven't informed the
- 29:03Speaker 13: company of that yet, but that'll work out all.
- 29:06Speaker 2: Right, General Keene. How important is that decision.
- 29:10Speaker 1: It is crucial.
- 29:12Speaker 14: Here's so our aredience understands. We've watched Russia conduct these
- 29:18Speaker 14: major salvos where four or five hundred drones come into Ukraine,
- 29:24Speaker 14: a couple of dozen ballistic missiles and also maybe fifteen
- 29:30Speaker 14: to twenty cruise missiles. Ukraine takes down routinely ninety plus
- 29:36Speaker 14: percent of the drones, eliminates most of all of the
- 29:40Speaker 14: cruise missiles, and for the last number of attacks that
- 29:43Speaker 14: have taken place, they haven't shot down a single ballistic missile.
- 29:48Speaker 14: And why is that? Because they don't have the means
- 29:51Speaker 14: to shoot them down. That is where Ukraine is and
- 29:55Speaker 14: is in a desperate situation in terms of defeating ballistic missiles.
- 30:00Speaker 14: I wish this decision had been made sooner. It is
- 30:03Speaker 14: the right decision, but obviously to stand up the manufacturing
- 30:08Speaker 14: capability to produce pack three intercepts is going to take
- 30:12Speaker 14: some time and Ukraine will suffer the consequences waiting for that.
- 30:18Speaker 14: This is an act of desperation on Putin's part. The
- 30:21Speaker 14: title war has turned against him Andrew and he's trying
- 30:25Speaker 14: to punish and kill as many civilians as possible to
- 30:29Speaker 14: put pressure on Zelenski to make concessions. I guarantee you
- 30:32Speaker 14: he will not make concessions and also put pressure on
- 30:35Speaker 14: a Trump administration to pressure Zelenski to make concessions.
- 30:41Speaker 1: I don't believe even now with Putin.
- 30:45Speaker 14: As general certainly understanding they're not going to ever take Ukraine.
- 30:50Speaker 14: Whether Putin believes that, I don't know, but I do
- 30:54Speaker 14: know this. I doubt seriously he is really intent on
- 30:58Speaker 14: making serious negotiats where he would make substantive concessions and
- 31:03Speaker 14: go to a ceasefire. Despite what he's told President Trump,
- 31:06Speaker 14: I still think he believes he can wear the United
- 31:09Speaker 14: States down and wears Lanscape down as well.
- 31:12Speaker 2: I think same story, two different wars. They think they
- 31:15Speaker 2: can that Donald Trump will lose interest and walk away.
- 31:19Speaker 2: We shall see. General Jack Keane, thank you so much
- 31:22Speaker 2: for your time.
- 31:24Speaker 1: Great talking to Andrew as always.
- 31:28Speaker 2: After the break, Anthony Albertese he was all over India's
- 31:31Speaker 2: Prime minister in Melbourne today and I have to tell
- 31:34Speaker 2: you it was very strange. It's not really so surprising
- 31:41Speaker 2: that Anthony Aberantese was today all over India's prime minister.
- 31:45Speaker 2: They're Indimodi, the Hindu nationalists. Who's in Melbourne for a visit.
- 31:49Speaker 2: There are now nearly a million Indian born people in
- 31:52Speaker 2: Australia a million. It's the biggest group of foreign born residents,
- 31:56Speaker 2: bigger even now than the British. And just think of
- 31:59Speaker 2: all that potential labor voters. Melbourne is also the Indian
- 32:04Speaker 2: capital of Australia. Many Indians here obviously love Mody. Up
- 32:07Speaker 2: to thirty thousand of them are expected to join him
- 32:11Speaker 2: at a rally at Marvel Stadium tonight. Now it's no wonder,
- 32:15Speaker 2: of course, that Albanzi also loves multiculturalism, which is a
- 32:18Speaker 2: vote winning policy to throw money at ethnic groups. And
- 32:23Speaker 2: here's the sign, a sign of the perversion that causes.
- 32:28Speaker 2: When Mody visited Donald Trump, Trump boasted about how much
- 32:31Speaker 2: investment he had brought to build America.
- 32:36Speaker 13: Prime Minister's building a lot in the United States, spending
- 32:39Speaker 13: a lot of money in the United States.
- 32:43Speaker 2: But where Mody today visits Anthony Albanesi. Albanzi boasts about
- 32:48Speaker 2: how much investment Australia's top superfund is sending to build India.
- 32:54Speaker 12: I welcome the announcement that we have had this morning
- 32:57Speaker 12: from Paul Schreider from Australians that they will invest an
- 33:02Speaker 12: additional five hundred million Australian dollars in the India's National
- 33:08Speaker 12: Investment and Infrastructure Fund.
- 33:13Speaker 2: Thanks for visiting here, have half a billion of our money.
- 33:17Speaker 2: Multiculturalism is so wonderful. Now a contrast anti Albanese's treatment
- 33:22Speaker 2: of another foreign leader, a woman, Japanese Prime Minister Snae Takeichi,
- 33:28Speaker 2: not just a woman, but someone who can't give labor
- 33:30Speaker 2: many ethnic votes, because all right, there's a million Indians here,
- 33:34Speaker 2: but there are a fewer than fifty thousand Japanese. It
- 33:38Speaker 2: was a you know, I just can't get over how
- 33:40Speaker 2: rude and sexist Albanesi was the Takichi and how little
- 33:44Speaker 2: feminist in journeys seemed to care. Where are the demands
- 33:48Speaker 2: that he apologized to her? Now, I've told you before
- 33:51Speaker 2: how Takeichi came to Australia in May and gave Albanzi
- 33:55Speaker 2: a gift of a crown melon a very ceremonial President
- 33:59Speaker 2: Ja and how alban Easy on a podcast later turned
- 34:02Speaker 2: that into a smutty joke at Tucky, She's expense.
- 34:07Speaker 12: To something I got recently here that was pretty strange
- 34:11Speaker 12: but ended up being quite good. Yeah, it was a melon.
- 34:15Speaker 12: The Japanese Prime minister brought a melon?
- 34:18Speaker 5: How did you get that through custom?
- 34:21Speaker 12: She it's a royal melon.
- 34:23Speaker 8: She smuggled it was a she she she smuggled it.
- 34:26Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 34:27Speaker 12: Oh, I got a couple of melons.
- 34:29Speaker 8: She brought too.
- 34:31Speaker 2: She brought too as you do.
- 34:32Speaker 5: She just came in looking like Pamela r Anders.
- 34:34Speaker 1: She brought to.
- 34:38Speaker 2: Joining me is make Newman as a commentator, corporate advisor
- 34:41Speaker 2: and former New South Wales Senior Trade and Investment Commissioner
- 34:45Speaker 2: to Japan and Korea. Man who's live for years in Japan. Mike,
- 34:49Speaker 2: thanks for your time again. Look first the Albany is
- 34:53Speaker 2: he posting about how much investment in superphones we're sending
- 34:56Speaker 2: to India? Does a that is a former trade commissions track.
- 35:00Speaker 2: It's a bit odd that, you know, we give someone
- 35:03Speaker 2: all this money instead of bosting about how much we're getting.
- 35:07Speaker 10: Well, the first comment I'd make, Andrew is that five
- 35:09Speaker 10: hundred million dollars in India nowadays probably won't even touch
- 35:12Speaker 10: the sides I was speaking to my partners earlier today,
- 35:15Speaker 10: A two hundred apartment complex in Delhi, average selling price
- 35:21Speaker 10: of two point five million, sold in three minutes and
- 35:23Speaker 10: fifty six seconds. So they gives you an idea of
- 35:26Speaker 10: the scope. But I would say in the reverse, the
- 35:29Speaker 10: Japanese corporates have five trillion with a t dollars of
- 35:33Speaker 10: cash on their balance sheets and would love to spend
- 35:35Speaker 10: it in Australia. However, our government here seems not to
- 35:38Speaker 10: want to make it easy for them to do so,
- 35:40Speaker 10: because a lot of it is involved in sectors which
- 35:42Speaker 10: our government is not too fond of, i e.
- 35:44Speaker 1: Cole and gas.
- 35:48Speaker 2: No, well, there you go. Well she's speaking of Japan
- 35:51Speaker 2: and you as a former trade commissioner, their senior trade commissioner.
- 35:56Speaker 2: How many is he mocking Japanese, the Japanese Prime Minige
- 36:00Speaker 2: as a woman mocking her melons? How would that go
- 36:04Speaker 2: down in the japan that you know?
- 36:06Speaker 10: Well, of course they'd be deeply disappointed, and they were
- 36:09Speaker 10: very disappointed that the Prime Minister didn't show up to
- 36:11Speaker 10: the fiftieth anniversary of the Nara Treaty dinner and nordered
- 36:14Speaker 10: Angus Taylor for that matter. But I think the Japanese
- 36:18Speaker 10: are probably the most adept at social ikido. And ikido
- 36:22Speaker 10: is the Japanese martial art where you use your opponent's
- 36:25Speaker 10: force to throw them using their power so you know,
- 36:30Speaker 10: the Japanese will take this to heart. They will not
- 36:32Speaker 10: forget it, but you will not hear them really raise
- 36:36Speaker 10: their voices to complain or anything of this nature. That
- 36:39Speaker 10: will just be quietly absorbed and they will see it
- 36:44Speaker 10: as yet another reason why Japan is sorry. Australia is
- 36:47Speaker 10: becoming far more difficult to invest in because they see
- 36:50Speaker 10: us as more and more as sovereign risk. And I've
- 36:52Speaker 10: been saying this repeatedly for the last five years.
- 36:57Speaker 2: Well, given that, I mean, should how an easy apologize
- 37:00Speaker 2: a prime in the tsaki ichi or from what you're saying,
- 37:02Speaker 2: will that just make things worse by you know, naming
- 37:05Speaker 2: what it is that is done.
- 37:08Speaker 10: Well, look, I don't think an apology will do anything.
- 37:10Speaker 10: And if I was usually in Japan, apologies tend to
- 37:14Speaker 10: go via third party. So perhaps if I was to
- 37:16Speaker 10: speak to the Prime Minister of Japan, I'd say taky
- 37:20Speaker 10: sory taihem moshak adi masen, which means I'm completely sorry
- 37:24Speaker 10: for our prime minister's antics. And really I just hope
- 37:28Speaker 10: that you know, this government needs to start taking Japan
- 37:32Speaker 10: far more serious sooner rather than later, otherwise we will
- 37:35Speaker 10: end up regretting little incidents like the melons, which just
- 37:39Speaker 10: only add to the already overwhelming evidence that Australia is
- 37:43Speaker 10: becoming harder and harder to invest.
- 37:48Speaker 2: Well, Mike, if you really hurry, you might just catch
- 37:51Speaker 2: that last flight to Tokyo this evening to do exactly
- 37:54Speaker 2: that for the country, to do us a national favor.
- 37:56Speaker 2: Thank you so much, indeed, for your time, Mike Newman
- 37:59Speaker 2: really siated. After the break, One of Australia's top universities
- 38:03Speaker 2: says it has a job for a lecturer in mathematical physics,
- 38:08Speaker 2: but only if you're a woman or transgender. The panel
- 38:12Speaker 2: coming up.
- 38:16Speaker 1: Now.
- 38:16Speaker 2: I mentioned this week how China was just streating us
- 38:19Speaker 2: in technology and engineering. But good news, one of our
- 38:22Speaker 2: finest universities is this week decided to beef up its
- 38:26Speaker 2: maths staff. It's advertised for e lecturer in mathematical physics,
- 38:31Speaker 2: so already it sounds like we might be back on
- 38:33Speaker 2: the right track. In fact, even better, the university wants
- 38:38Speaker 2: two of them, but there's a very Australian catch. Only
- 38:42Speaker 2: if the second one is a woman, or they could
- 38:45Speaker 2: even be transgender. So I guess it is open to
- 38:48Speaker 2: some men after all, as long as they do call
- 38:50Speaker 2: themselves female. Is Melbourne University truly into excellence or now
- 38:56Speaker 2: into mushy woke feel good because it has a record
- 39:00Speaker 2: it is already hard fake Aboriginal Bruce Pasco as a
- 39:04Speaker 2: professor and a discipline that he made up Indigenous agriculture
- 39:08Speaker 2: when Aborigines were in fact hunter gatherer's not farmers, and
- 39:13Speaker 2: it now even has a program of Indigenous and cultural astronomy.
- 39:18Speaker 2: Joining me is the panel former Liberal Senator Holly Hughes
- 39:21Speaker 2: now with One Nation, and Christi McSweeney has worked for
- 39:23Speaker 2: coalition prime ministers and premiers. I mean, Christy, should a
- 39:26Speaker 2: top university insist that only women in transgender people can
- 39:30Speaker 2: apply for a job lecturing in mathematical physics, Well.
- 39:34Speaker 7: I think women and transgender are two separate categories, not
- 39:38Speaker 7: at like the conflation of both of those.
- 39:41Speaker 6: But I will.
- 39:42Speaker 7: Say that there is a lack of women in STEM education,
- 39:47Speaker 7: just as there is a lack of men teaching primary school.
- 39:51Speaker 7: So maybe it's one of these things where we have
- 39:53Speaker 7: to reverse the balance and we have to look at
- 39:55Speaker 7: these things on a case by case basis. But I
- 39:58Speaker 7: would hate to see a less qualified person get that
- 40:01Speaker 7: position because of their gender or their binary identification if
- 40:05Speaker 7: they didn't meet the same standard as other people who
- 40:09Speaker 7: might have wanted to apply.
- 40:12Speaker 2: Yeah, but Holly, isn't that exactly the issue. You wouldn't
- 40:14Speaker 2: say only women can apply or transgender unless you were determined,
- 40:20Speaker 2: to horror, maybe someone who was second or third, or
- 40:23Speaker 2: fourth or fifth best, as long as they were a
- 40:25Speaker 2: woman and not her the most skilled person that would apply.
- 40:30Speaker 2: You would only assist on that if you weren't sure
- 40:32Speaker 2: the woman was the best for the job.
- 40:34Speaker 15: I'm just surprised these guys know how to even define
- 40:37Speaker 15: a woman.
- 40:37Speaker 5: I mean, this is the problem.
- 40:38Speaker 15: I mean, it does my head in constantly that they
- 40:41Speaker 15: don't know what a woman is. They can't define what
- 40:44Speaker 15: a woman is. A woman isn't a female adult with
- 40:47Speaker 15: two X chromosomes. I mean, it wasn't that long ago,
- 40:50Speaker 15: and I mean I'm talking a couple of weeks there
- 40:52Speaker 15: was outrage because there was a fashion label to put
- 40:55Speaker 15: a T shirt out for girls too pretty for maths.
- 40:58Speaker 15: I mean, the whole world has gone completely and utterly mad.
- 41:02Speaker 15: I bet they don't have safe spaces for just women
- 41:05Speaker 15: at the University of Melbourne. I mean, the whole thing
- 41:08Speaker 15: is ridiculous. And the fact Miss McSweeney, you are one
- 41:12Speaker 15: hundred percent right. I am not a CIS woman. I
- 41:15Speaker 15: am a woman, and I do not conflate that with
- 41:17Speaker 15: trange women in the same way at all.
- 41:21Speaker 7: Where's that pronoun company from?
- 41:23Speaker 2: Well, I just find it.
- 41:25Speaker 7: The pronouns.
- 41:27Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's true too, that's true too. But honestly,
- 41:31Speaker 2: I find it a disgrace that a university should say
- 41:34Speaker 2: we're not going to take the best candidate. We're going
- 41:36Speaker 2: to take the best candidate of this gender or this
- 41:39Speaker 2: sexual orientation or something that I find is such a
- 41:43Speaker 2: cheat on the potential mathematical physicists that have lined up
- 41:48Speaker 2: to get the best education they can afford at the
- 41:50Speaker 2: university today. One, I mean, that's just a cheat.
- 41:52Speaker 5: Now, country, we're only taking it's you imagine.
- 42:00Speaker 2: Please, I don't want I don't want AKMA to take
- 42:03Speaker 2: us off here for sins against the sensitive souls. Overseas,
- 42:10Speaker 2: of course, thank you, No, no, we don't even want
- 42:13Speaker 2: that overseas the countries of course, with a very different
- 42:18Speaker 2: and harder edge. You've got the NATO meeting in Turkey
- 42:22Speaker 2: now wrapping up. They were all there. Canadian promise the
- 42:25Speaker 2: British Prime Minister Donald Trump Et cetera, et cetera, and
- 42:28Speaker 2: the host President one of Turkey has given all the
- 42:33Speaker 2: leaders are present to take home. It is a pistol
- 42:37Speaker 2: and a packet of ammunition. And I've got to say,
- 42:40Speaker 2: I've got to say, Holly, that this really is a
- 42:44Speaker 2: sign of the times. Canada's Prime minister typically said he
- 42:47Speaker 2: will decommission his own so it cannot fire bullets, and
- 42:52Speaker 2: maybe give it to a museum. What does this tell you?
- 42:54Speaker 15: Well, that's just everything about Canada, isn't it. I mean,
- 42:56Speaker 15: they're all in there, they're only second behind us to
- 42:59Speaker 15: put the white But kis Starmer saying, you know, oh,
- 43:02Speaker 15: I couldn't possibly take it back to the UK. It's
- 43:04Speaker 15: illegal to take a gun on his prime ministerial jet.
- 43:08Speaker 15: I mean, is the guy even still prime minister? It
- 43:10Speaker 15: just all seems a bit strange. But I actually think,
- 43:13Speaker 15: you know, when you're trying to put together the Bombagieri
- 43:17Speaker 15: for a wedding, why not put a pistol.
- 43:19Speaker 5: And some ammo in there. It could make the afterparty
- 43:21Speaker 5: it'd be more interesting. Who knows, certainly, Chris, what do
- 43:26Speaker 5: you make of it?
- 43:28Speaker 7: Well, this is their this is their opportunities to keep
- 43:31Speaker 7: to make a big splash, and this is what they
- 43:34Speaker 7: want to give people as a memento to remember the
- 43:37Speaker 7: large scale event. You know, I'm only really disappointed that
- 43:42Speaker 7: Chris Bowen has to now try and find an appropriate gift,
- 43:45Speaker 7: given that he's the president and spend helping him churm
- 43:48Speaker 7: Kena for his cop conference. I don't know what he
- 43:50Speaker 7: is going to come up to with.
- 43:52Speaker 6: It's a hard.
- 43:53Speaker 5: Act to follow. Are we on the ob secret call
- 43:55Speaker 5: it curse?
- 43:56Speaker 15: Calling it two turkey?
- 44:00Speaker 7: That's another thing that's well right now?
- 44:02Speaker 2: When did we have to pull it together? I feel
- 44:08Speaker 2: like there was once a fantastic comedy recording of an
- 44:11Speaker 2: elderly Man River where someone transgress all these all these
- 44:15Speaker 2: little sensitivity things and kept getting beat as he tried
- 44:18Speaker 2: to sing old Man River. I feel like I'm in
- 44:20Speaker 2: that episode right now. Pauline Hanson going on the podcast
- 44:23Speaker 2: with the British study Tommy Robinson Holly, I got to say,
- 44:27Speaker 2: is that seriously a good move?
- 44:29Speaker 1: Oh?
- 44:29Speaker 15: Look, I think absolutely. Pauline is happy to speak to
- 44:32Speaker 15: anyone anywhere. I mean, I'm sure she's not going to
- 44:35Speaker 15: play the date Mary shag game, which is probably a
- 44:39Speaker 15: good idea.
- 44:40Speaker 5: We've seen how that's recently panned out. I think most.
- 44:43Speaker 15: People you know are getting their news from all sorts
- 44:45Speaker 15: of different places.
- 44:47Speaker 5: You don't have to agree with everyone you talk to.
- 44:49Speaker 5: But I think he's a thug groups.
- 44:51Speaker 15: But the thing is, like, you know what, you want
- 44:53Speaker 15: to go hide in the Sydney Institute making stuffy speeches
- 44:56Speaker 15: or go out and talk to where the people are listening.
- 44:58Speaker 5: Are serious problem with Pauline doing it?
- 45:03Speaker 2: Sorry and Christy please with you? Sorry you what do
- 45:09Speaker 2: you mean?
- 45:09Speaker 10: You know?
- 45:10Speaker 7: But Pauline is a domestic political leader. I've got no
- 45:13Speaker 7: idea why the concerns of Tommy Robinson are something that
- 45:17Speaker 7: she wants to play into and associate herself with. He
- 45:20Speaker 7: has got multiple criminal convictions, he's a borderline likes very
- 45:25Speaker 7: much to associate and we're members of organizations with people
- 45:29Speaker 7: who have known Holocaust denis as well. That is a
- 45:32Speaker 7: whole bag of someone that I don't think does her
- 45:36Speaker 7: any favors because she is genuine and authentic and that
- 45:40Speaker 7: is what people like about her. I think this is
- 45:42Speaker 7: a bit too. It's straying into the danger zone for
- 45:46Speaker 7: reputation wise for her. Very different to Carl Stefanovic. If
- 45:50Speaker 7: he wants to interview or not interview people and call
- 45:53Speaker 7: it the public interest as a journalist. But this is
- 45:56Speaker 7: brand association what she's doing. And I don't think it's
- 45:59Speaker 7: a fits dangerous.
- 46:03Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so too. Look when you think this
- 46:05Speaker 2: guy's biggest move was absolutely telling lies about a poor
- 46:10Speaker 2: fifteen year old boy ruining his life, falsely claiming he
- 46:14Speaker 2: was a bully who bashed the white girl Black and
- 46:17Speaker 2: Blue happened to he was Muslim so fitted into Tommy
- 46:20Speaker 2: Robinson and stick you know, got jailed for the for
- 46:23Speaker 2: refusing for repeating the libel when he was told by
- 46:26Speaker 2: judge not to. I mean, Holly, isn't this the kind
- 46:29Speaker 2: of thing that's going to turn off a lot of
- 46:32Speaker 2: people from potentially putting up their hand Because I know
- 46:35Speaker 2: a couple of really good people that want to join
- 46:37Speaker 2: one nation. Why would you want to associate yourself with
- 46:40Speaker 2: a party that now consorts with a thug like that,
- 46:44Speaker 2: and you know promotes him.
- 46:46Speaker 15: Well, I mean, I don't know whether she's promoting him
- 46:48Speaker 15: with as as much as she's gone on to his podcast,
- 46:50Speaker 15: he wants to talk to her, that's you know, a
- 46:53Speaker 15: decision for Paul aid to mate. But she is prepared
- 46:55Speaker 15: to talk to anyone. I mean, this is a woman
- 46:58Speaker 15: who also went to jail off back of some pretty
- 47:01Speaker 15: spurious claims, so not the ABC, but you know, she's
- 47:06Speaker 15: happy to talk to anyone.
- 47:07Speaker 5: And people are getting their news from all sorts of sources.
- 47:11Speaker 15: And I think when you talk and you know, brand
- 47:14Speaker 15: identity and brand damage, that sounds like inside the Beltway talk,
- 47:18Speaker 15: and that's the sort of thing that people in Australia
- 47:20Speaker 15: don't like at the moment. They want to hear all
- 47:22Speaker 15: sorts of opinions and they want to hear people talking straight.
- 47:26Speaker 15: And she does have a reputation for being genuine and
- 47:29Speaker 15: she'll say exactly what she thinks to whom ever, and
- 47:33Speaker 15: she doesn't always agree with who she talks to, So
- 47:37Speaker 15: I don't have a problem with who she wants to
- 47:38Speaker 15: talk to.
- 47:39Speaker 5: I haven't heard it.
- 47:40Speaker 15: I don't know what she's said on it, but it
- 47:43Speaker 15: certainly can't be as bad as what the Prime Minister
- 47:45Speaker 15: did and the damage that he's done.
- 47:49Speaker 5: And I just think, you know, it's this whole thing.
- 47:52Speaker 15: That doesn't matter what Pauline does, there's going to be
- 47:54Speaker 15: some sort of try to linkage and pull her down,
- 47:57Speaker 15: you know, especially by those Yeah, I believe.
- 47:59Speaker 2: Hello, Hello elements, Harry, you know that are not one
- 48:04Speaker 2: that is always continually trying to pull Handsome down. We're
- 48:07Speaker 2: going to say, Christy this, this is a mistake. This
- 48:11Speaker 2: is you don't need to go crazy. Now she's ahead,
- 48:14Speaker 2: she should be normal.
- 48:16Speaker 7: Yeah, we'll find a non criminal person to speak to
- 48:21Speaker 7: that has these views. There's plenty of here in the UK,
- 48:24Speaker 7: or find an identity in Australia to speak to. It
- 48:28Speaker 7: is brand association and if that is a Beltwegh term Holly, well,
- 48:32Speaker 7: where everybody knows what it means until we come up
- 48:34Speaker 7: with another term. That's the one that I will.
- 48:37Speaker 15: I mean, I think and with all respect, we've got
- 48:40Speaker 15: to go in the front.
- 48:41Speaker 5: Bar've got to go.
- 48:42Speaker 2: I'm so sorry amount of time Holly Hughes, Hally Hughes,
- 48:46Speaker 2: Christian sweety, great chat. Thank you to you both. Up
- 48:49Speaker 2: next Sherry, hosted by James McPherson. Good note
