0:11
Speaker 1: He's Reworment.
0:15
Speaker 2: Well, good evening.
0:15
Speaker 3: I'm James Macpherson, filling in for Andrew Bolt, who will
0:18
Speaker 3: be back next week Tonight. Court jester Lydia Thorpe finds
0:22
Speaker 3: herself in more hot water after admitting she deliberately misspoke
0:26
Speaker 3: her oath to Parliament. Legal action is now being considered.
0:29
Speaker 3: The CSIRO makes a stunning backflip and admits it may
0:32
Speaker 3: be wrong on its nuclear energy costings. China accuses Australia
0:37
Speaker 3: of systemic racism and hate crimes. They must have been
0:41
Speaker 3: listening to the ABC and some common sense from the
0:44
Speaker 3: UK Prime Minister Kirs Starmer. But is the Labor Party
0:48
Speaker 3: in the UK interfering in the US election?
0:50
Speaker 2: We'll head to London for the latest but first.
0:54
Speaker 3: Last year, Australians overwhelmingly voted not to be divided by race.
0:59
Speaker 3: Every juris in the country voted against enshrining a race based.
1:04
Speaker 2: Voice into the Constitution.
1:07
Speaker 3: Sorry, I should have said every jurisdiction with the exception
1:10
Speaker 3: of the Act.
1:11
Speaker 2: But if you've ever.
1:12
Speaker 3: Spent any time in Camberry, you know it's not really
1:14
Speaker 3: part of the country. It's ironic though, that Labor politicians
1:18
Speaker 3: having spent more than a year telling Australians how important
1:21
Speaker 3: it was for them to be able to listen to
1:23
Speaker 3: a small group of constituents and now completely deaf to
1:26
Speaker 3: the overwhelming majority we voted against racial division, and so
1:32
Speaker 3: Labor who prior to the referendum we're all about listening
1:35
Speaker 3: and now completely ignoring us as they redouble their efforts
1:38
Speaker 3: to divide us by race.
1:40
Speaker 2: It's almost as.
1:41
Speaker 3: If the referendum never happened, or at least it's as
1:44
Speaker 3: if sixty one percent of us never voted. Victorian Labor
1:48
Speaker 3: Premier just Into Allen has said today she's open to
1:51
Speaker 3: creating a public holiday to celebrate Indigenous culture and languages.
1:56
Speaker 3: Can't reduce debt, can't organize a Commonwealth games, can't even
1:59
Speaker 3: organize a train from Tullamarine to the city, But shut
2:03
Speaker 3: the state down for a day every year to celebrate
2:05
Speaker 3: Indigenous culture. Absolutely that she can do. Victoria's first People's
2:10
Speaker 3: Assembly is expected to demand the public holiday as part
2:14
Speaker 3: of the negotiations on a treaty with the state government,
2:17
Speaker 3: and just on that. What a strange way to promote
2:21
Speaker 3: reconciliation and healing, one party demanding that the other must
2:26
Speaker 3: stop work every year and celebrate them.
2:28
Speaker 2: Can't you just feel the unity?
2:31
Speaker 3: I can just imagine Victorian Senator Lydia Thorpe using this
2:34
Speaker 3: public holiday every year to promote the Left's idea of.
2:36
Speaker 2: You know, social cohesion.
2:44
Speaker 3: Now, of course you understand when she says war, she
2:46
Speaker 3: means unity, just like when she swore allegiance to the
2:49
Speaker 3: Queen's hairs, she meant never mind politicians and activists. But
2:54
Speaker 3: I repeat myself, have foistered welcome to country honors, and well,
2:58
Speaker 3: how's that working out?
3:01
Speaker 4: Welcome to Country is not a ceremony that we've invented
3:06
Speaker 4: to cater for white people. It's a ceremony we've been
3:10
Speaker 4: doing for two hundred and fifty thousand years plus BC,
3:15
Speaker 4: and the BC stands for before.
3:18
Speaker 3: Cook has reminding us that every opportunity that one group's
3:24
Speaker 3: ancestors got here before the other group's ancestors brought Indigenous
3:27
Speaker 3: and non Indigenous Australians together, or has it only served
3:30
Speaker 3: to breed cynicism and take up valuable time before a
3:33
Speaker 3: football game. Underterred, though, the Victorian Labor government would mandate
3:37
Speaker 3: that everyone must celebrate Indigenous culture on a special public holiday,
3:41
Speaker 3: whether they want to or not, and spare a thought
3:44
Speaker 3: for long suffering small business owners. You can lose a
3:48
Speaker 3: day of trading, or you can pay staff penalty rates, whatever,
3:50
Speaker 3: but Victorian businesses will pay so that one percent of
3:54
Speaker 3: the population can be celebrated as special based on their
3:58
Speaker 3: ancestry and assistic state. Premiere can be lauded for her
4:02
Speaker 3: enlightened thinking.
4:04
Speaker 2: It makes me.
4:04
Speaker 3: Wonder why our political class bothered changing the lyrics of
4:07
Speaker 3: our national anthem from we are young and free to
4:11
Speaker 3: we are one and free. If the plan is to
4:13
Speaker 3: continually emphasize now, potentially with a public holiday, no less
4:17
Speaker 3: that we are not one people. It's not as if
4:21
Speaker 3: Indigenous Australians don't have any special days dedicated to them.
4:25
Speaker 3: February thirteen is the anniversary of National Apology Day. The
4:29
Speaker 3: third Thursday of every month is National Close the Gap Day.
4:32
Speaker 3: May twenty six, well that's National Sorry Day. And May
4:34
Speaker 3: twenty seven to June third is National Reconciliation Week. July
4:39
Speaker 3: seventh to July fourteen, well that's naydoc Week.
4:41
Speaker 2: August four is.
4:42
Speaker 3: National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children's Day. August nine,
4:46
Speaker 3: that's International Day of the World's Indigenous People. September four
4:50
Speaker 3: that's Indigenous Literacy Day. And I could go on and
4:53
Speaker 3: on and on, but I won't because I think you
4:55
Speaker 3: get the picture. By the way, if you serve dour
4:58
Speaker 3: nation on a battlefield, risking life, life and limit to
5:00
Speaker 3: defend our freedoms, you get April twenty fifth these days
5:04
Speaker 3: with a side of pro Palestinian protesters thrown in for free.
5:08
Speaker 2: I've got a couple of questions.
5:10
Speaker 3: Do you think the state government will tell public servants
5:12
Speaker 3: they can work rather than celebrate Indigenous Day and have
5:16
Speaker 3: a different day off instead, you know, like they currently
5:18
Speaker 3: permit for those who object to Australia Day.
5:21
Speaker 2: I doubt it. Do you think the State government and.
5:23
Speaker 3: The ABC will be sympathetic if a bunch of Aussies
5:27
Speaker 3: protest Indigenous Day like so many protests Australia Day, while
5:30
Speaker 3: being cheered on by the activist media.
5:33
Speaker 2: Of course not.
5:35
Speaker 3: I'm old enough to still remember when we will one
5:37
Speaker 3: nation under one flag and all subject to one law.
5:42
Speaker 3: Now we're being deliberately divided as a nation represented by
5:46
Speaker 3: I keep forgetting what is it now? Three flags and
5:49
Speaker 3: we're increasingly subject to different laws.
5:52
Speaker 2: So here's the question, what should we do?
5:55
Speaker 1: Well?
5:55
Speaker 3: I've got an idea and I want to run it
5:57
Speaker 3: past you and you can let me know what you think.
6:00
Speaker 3: What if we were to have a national referendum and
6:03
Speaker 3: find out whether the majority of Australians believe we should
6:06
Speaker 3: give special status to one particular group based on race. Sorry,
6:11
Speaker 3: what's that you're saying? We already did that to our politicians.
6:16
Speaker 1: Know well.
6:20
Speaker 3: To another scandal now, and Labour is in hot water
6:22
Speaker 3: after a number of its MPs went on a study
6:25
Speaker 3: to it to Palestine that was partially funded by the
6:28
Speaker 3: Australian Palestine Advocacy Network. Now, this is the lobby group
6:33
Speaker 3: run by Nasa Mashni that has accused Israel of genocide
6:37
Speaker 3: and that opposes her Musk being labeled as terrorists. Here's
6:41
Speaker 3: what Mashni had to say to his followers after the
6:43
Speaker 3: death of hamas chief and the mastermind of October seven,
6:47
Speaker 3: Yaya Sinwa.
6:49
Speaker 5: It's easy to feel dejected, don't be. The resistance lives on.
6:52
Speaker 5: Human beings will resist oppression. It's a normal human condition. Occupation, apartheid, genocide,
6:58
Speaker 5: that's the issue. Every settler colony will demonize those it's
7:02
Speaker 5: stealing from, raping and murdering. Colonialists. Just don't get it
7:06
Speaker 5: or don't want to be proud. I am proud, so
7:09
Speaker 5: very proud of my people and every one of you
7:11
Speaker 5: eighty years of colonialism and the Palestins have refused to submit.
7:17
Speaker 3: Now, some digging by the Daily Telegraph shows this Palestine
7:21
Speaker 3: Advocacy network had received twenty two four hundred dollars from
7:25
Speaker 3: ALP and fifty thousand dollars from Union to pay for
7:30
Speaker 3: study tours to Palestine. Joining me is Shadow Home Affairs
7:33
Speaker 3: Minister James Patterson. James, thanks for your time. Help me
7:37
Speaker 3: understand why is the Labor Party giving thousands of dollars
7:41
Speaker 3: to an organization that accuses Israel of genocide? And why
7:45
Speaker 3: are Labour MPs, one of whom is Home Affairs Minister
7:49
Speaker 3: Tony Burke, going on tours organized by a group that
7:53
Speaker 3: claim Hamas is not a terrorist organization.
7:58
Speaker 6: Those are all very good questions, James, and none of
8:01
Speaker 6: which have been answered by the Labor Party or Apan
8:04
Speaker 6: or this mystery union that has apparently cocked up this money. Now,
8:08
Speaker 6: this is not just a random amount of money. It's
8:09
Speaker 6: a very specific amount of money. If you are making
8:11
Speaker 6: something like that up, you wouldn't say it was twenty
8:14
Speaker 6: two four hundred dollars and yet no one has been
8:17
Speaker 6: transparent about this. So the questions are, why did the
8:20
Speaker 6: Labor Party give this money to Apan? Where did they
8:23
Speaker 6: source that money from? Is it taxpayers money, is it
8:27
Speaker 6: donated money, is it from the union movement or all
8:30
Speaker 6: the appropriate declarations made? And did they do any research
8:34
Speaker 6: on Apan before they gave them this money? As you
8:37
Speaker 6: point out, this is a very extreme organization headed by
8:39
Speaker 6: a president who believes that her Mass is not a
8:41
Speaker 6: terrorist organization, that we should end the peace process, that
8:46
Speaker 6: we should not have a two state solution. But as
8:48
Speaker 6: you say, it is a taxed Israel in shopping terms,
8:51
Speaker 6: and in that video you played earlier, implied that it
8:53
Speaker 6: was something to be sad about or dejected about that
8:56
Speaker 6: Yaya Sinhwa, the terrorist head of her Mass, is now dead.
9:02
Speaker 3: Well, James, you raise the point, you know, what did
9:04
Speaker 3: the Labor Party know about this organization? I wouldn't imagine
9:09
Speaker 3: it would be a mystery to them. It's pretty clear
9:11
Speaker 3: online what the president of this organization believes.
9:15
Speaker 2: How concerning is it to you?
9:17
Speaker 3: And we're not just talking about some labor MPs. As
9:20
Speaker 3: I mentioned, Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke going on a
9:24
Speaker 3: tour organized by these people. He's in charge of security
9:27
Speaker 3: for the nation. Is this the sort of organization he
9:30
Speaker 3: should be associating with.
9:32
Speaker 1: Well, that's exactly right, James.
9:34
Speaker 6: Someone like a Home Affairs a minister who has the
9:36
Speaker 6: preeminent domestic national security portfolio has to take even greater
9:41
Speaker 6: care with who they engage with, who they accept marjest from,
9:45
Speaker 6: and all the appropriate declarations. Now, of course Tony Burk
9:49
Speaker 6: traveled to Palestine on this trip before he became Home
9:52
Speaker 6: Affairs Minister, But anybody who is appointed Home Affairs Minister
9:55
Speaker 6: should be someone who has taken great care throughout their
9:58
Speaker 6: career to be very careful with their associations and not
10:02
Speaker 6: engage and associate with people who argue against the listing
10:05
Speaker 6: of terrorist organizations, who oppose the peace process, or against
10:09
Speaker 6: a two state solution. I mean, is a really extreme
10:11
Speaker 6: statements from an increasingly extreme organization. And the least that
10:15
Speaker 6: we can expect from the Low Party about this is transparency.
10:18
Speaker 6: And the least that we can expect from Tony Burke
10:20
Speaker 6: about this is to distance himself.
10:22
Speaker 1: Now from this organization.
10:24
Speaker 6: Say he does not share those views, Say he regrets
10:26
Speaker 6: going on this sponsored trip with them.
10:30
Speaker 3: Indeed, listen while I've got you here. I wanted to
10:33
Speaker 3: speak to you about a story that broke today with
10:36
Speaker 3: China accusing Australia of systemic racism, hate crimes and hypocrisy
10:41
Speaker 3: after one of our diplomats at the United Nations raised
10:45
Speaker 3: concerns about human rights abuses in China and Tibet. Now
10:49
Speaker 3: Labour's made a show of themselves kautaoing to China President
10:53
Speaker 3: Jijingping is right now off meeting with Russia's Vladimir Putin.
10:58
Speaker 3: The Prime Minister Anthony albinez he had responded. He said
11:02
Speaker 3: that Australia will agree where we can, disagree where we must.
11:06
Speaker 3: That was his response to China calling us a systemically
11:11
Speaker 3: racist nation. Is that a good enough response from the
11:15
Speaker 3: leader of Australia.
11:17
Speaker 1: It's not a good enough response from Anthony Abernezi.
11:19
Speaker 6: That is just his go to bland talking point when
11:22
Speaker 6: he has anything to say about the China relationship. Someone
11:25
Speaker 6: of substance who's our Prime minister should be able to
11:27
Speaker 6: contribute more than just the basic talking points. I think
11:30
Speaker 6: the important thing to remember here, James, is that we
11:33
Speaker 6: won't be taking lectures from the Chinese Communist Party on
11:36
Speaker 6: human rights. I mean, this is a political party and
11:38
Speaker 6: government which has been accused of genocide or crimes against
11:42
Speaker 6: humanity by human rights groups and the United Nations in relation.
11:45
Speaker 1: To what's happening in Chinjang.
11:47
Speaker 6: This is a government which has persecuted the Follongong people,
11:50
Speaker 6: that has persecuted the Tibetan people, that have persecuted the
11:53
Speaker 6: people of Hong Kong, that persecuted the Christian Church within China,
11:57
Speaker 6: and many other religious and ethnic minorities their history. So
12:00
Speaker 6: it's literally the last government in the world. We would
12:03
Speaker 6: take a lecture fromm And there's a key difference, of
12:05
Speaker 6: course between China under Shejinping and Australia, and that is
12:09
Speaker 6: that we have a free and independent press, we have
12:11
Speaker 6: an independent judiciary, we have active and vocal human rights groups,
12:15
Speaker 6: and we accept that our history has not been perfect
12:17
Speaker 6: and we.
12:17
Speaker 1: Strive to improve our country and make it better.
12:20
Speaker 6: We don't pretend that everything about our history is perfect.
12:24
Speaker 6: China under the Chinese Commers Party is very different. They're
12:26
Speaker 6: proud of what they're doing in Shinjani against the Wigas
12:28
Speaker 6: and others and elsewhere.
12:32
Speaker 3: Well, I read that China's Foreign Ministry spokesman was accusing
12:36
Speaker 3: Australia of being systemically racist, and the spokesperson referred specifically
12:41
Speaker 3: to war crimes by Australian troops in Afghanistan. Senator my
12:45
Speaker 3: only conclusion was that in China they must be watching
12:48
Speaker 3: the ABC.
12:50
Speaker 6: Yes, I guess that's possible, and there are processes to
12:53
Speaker 6: follow there. But of course no one has been charged
12:55
Speaker 6: or convicted with that the serious allegations, and they're being
12:58
Speaker 6: investigated as any liberal democracy would because we want to
13:02
Speaker 6: get to the bottom that we want to find out
13:03
Speaker 6: whether or not these allegations are credible and whether they
13:06
Speaker 6: can be stacked up and meet that test of evidence
13:08
Speaker 6: in a court of law. The Chinese Commist Party could
13:11
Speaker 6: not be any different. They would never investigate their own
13:14
Speaker 6: soldiers for any mistereds. In fact, they typically reward them,
13:18
Speaker 6: as we've said recently with it when a propaganda video
13:21
Speaker 6: promoted the unsaved, dangerous and unprofessional interactions that the People's
13:25
Speaker 6: Liberation Army had with Australian Air Force and Navy personnel
13:29
Speaker 6: operating in the region. So we have a very different
13:31
Speaker 6: approach to China. We won't be taking lectures from the
13:33
Speaker 6: Chinese government.
13:35
Speaker 3: Senator James Patterson appreciate your time tonight.
13:39
Speaker 1: Thank you.
13:42
Speaker 3: Well, let's bring in Nationals front bench of Barnaby Joyce,
13:44
Speaker 3: the former Deputy Prime Minister. Barnaby, thanks for joining me.
13:48
Speaker 3: We had a lot to talk about tonight, but I
13:51
Speaker 3: just want to ask you about an incident in the
13:53
Speaker 3: New South Wales Parliament where a Labor MP has been
13:56
Speaker 3: forced to apologize after telling a National's MP to.
14:00
Speaker 2: Quote f off back to the bush.
14:03
Speaker 3: He did this in front of a group of shocked
14:05
Speaker 3: primary school children that he'd been escorting around Parliament House.
14:10
Speaker 3: Now I know that you're no shrinking Violet, but this
14:14
Speaker 3: kind of behavior in parliament not exactly appropriate. And can
14:18
Speaker 3: you imagine if a Liberal spoke like that in front
14:22
Speaker 3: of children.
14:23
Speaker 7: Well, you know, it reminds me a bit of a
14:25
Speaker 7: bone moment, isn't it. If you don't like my policies,
14:29
Speaker 7: don't vote for them. Well, obviously for people in the bush,
14:32
Speaker 7: which his parlan supposed to everybody outside Sydney, which would
14:36
Speaker 7: be Newcastle, which Central Coast, which wollng Kong, he's told
14:42
Speaker 7: them all to f off. Okay, maybe they'll f off
14:47
Speaker 7: at the ballot box for you. Maybe that maybe you'll
14:50
Speaker 7: understand that people in regional areas. In the bush, you
14:54
Speaker 7: urban sophisticate, you pseudo.
14:56
Speaker 8: Intellectual, you enlightened, enlightened.
14:58
Speaker 7: Person, Maybe you'll be a little bit more hesitant, a
15:03
Speaker 7: little bit more circumspect about your narrative, about your language,
15:07
Speaker 7: rather than using a profanity in front of children to
15:11
Speaker 7: address a colleague at your workplace.
15:14
Speaker 8: It takes every bad box.
15:16
Speaker 7: How you acting your workplace, how you carry yourself as
15:20
Speaker 7: an elected member of Parliament in service of your duty,
15:23
Speaker 7: which is at your workplace. It wasn't at a barbecue,
15:26
Speaker 7: or it wasn't the football. And also out of respect
15:30
Speaker 7: for your ultimate boss, which is the constituent. He's told
15:33
Speaker 7: his constituency, he's told regional austrais hold all the people outside.
15:37
Speaker 8: Sydney to f off.
15:39
Speaker 7: And I think when the next election comes you should
15:42
Speaker 7: make sure that you don't come back. Just don't vote
15:45
Speaker 7: for it, don't vote for them.
15:49
Speaker 3: Fair enough Well, speaking about poor workplace behavior, let's talk
15:53
Speaker 3: about Lydia Thorpe, shall we. She told ABC News yesterday
15:57
Speaker 3: that she deliberately misspoke when she swore her allegiance to
16:01
Speaker 3: the monarch in parliament. In fact, she boasted about it here.
16:04
Speaker 3: She is on the ABC yesterday, and.
16:06
Speaker 9: I swore allegiance to the Queen's hairs. If you listen
16:11
Speaker 9: close enough, it wasn't her heirs. It was her hairs
16:15
Speaker 9: that I was giving my allegiance to. And now that
16:20
Speaker 9: you know they're not no longer here, I don't know
16:23
Speaker 9: where that stands.
16:26
Speaker 3: Okay, So let's take a look at when she was
16:28
Speaker 3: sworn in parliament and she does say hairs.
16:33
Speaker 9: True allegiance to her Majesty Queen and wisdom and for
16:36
Speaker 9: second her hairs and successes according to law.
16:42
Speaker 3: So it was a great little moment for Lydia Thorpe
16:44
Speaker 3: taking the mickey out of the pledge of allegiance.
16:46
Speaker 2: Of course, it's.
16:47
Speaker 3: Now bitten her on the bum and she was backtracking
16:50
Speaker 3: at a fast rate of knots today.
16:53
Speaker 10: Now forgive me for not being you know, my English
16:58
Speaker 10: grammar isn't as good as others, and I spoke.
17:04
Speaker 8: What I read, so I misspoke.
17:08
Speaker 10: And to have this country questioned, or particularly you know,
17:13
Speaker 10: people like Dutton and other senators from his party, for
17:18
Speaker 10: them to question my legitimacy in this job is an insult,
17:25
Speaker 10: and they can't get rid of me.
17:30
Speaker 3: I love it how she can question the king's legitimacy.
17:32
Speaker 3: But we can't question hers. It seems like Lydia Thoughte
17:35
Speaker 3: was boasting yesterday the ABC, but how clever she was
17:38
Speaker 3: deliberately mangling the words of the oath until there were
17:41
Speaker 3: suggestions that would make the oath invalid, and therefore her
17:45
Speaker 3: position in the Senate, with the salary that goes along
17:48
Speaker 3: with that, illegitimate. So now she's not clever and subversive,
17:51
Speaker 3: she's just not very good.
17:54
Speaker 2: Do you believe her, Barnaby?
17:56
Speaker 8: It's even more than that.
17:57
Speaker 7: It means that all the salary she's received thus far
18:00
Speaker 7: is illegitimate. I know this because we have been cast
18:03
Speaker 7: down the road of I was kicked out of Parliament.
18:05
Speaker 7: Might forget forgotten about that because I was born in Australia,
18:11
Speaker 7: I was raised in Australia. I served in the Australian
18:13
Speaker 7: Defense Force. But my father, at the only the time
18:16
Speaker 7: my birth, was a New Zealand citizen.
18:18
Speaker 8: So I was kicked out.
18:19
Speaker 7: So Lydia, I hate to break this to you. Yes,
18:22
Speaker 7: they can kick you out, and you have made it.
18:26
Speaker 7: I don't know whether it's a trope or whether you're
18:28
Speaker 7: proud of it. You actually boasted that you didn't properly
18:31
Speaker 7: swear the oath of office, and therefore, because you haven't
18:36
Speaker 7: properly sworn the oath of office, then the question has
18:39
Speaker 7: to be asked, are you properly employed?
18:41
Speaker 8: Are you dutifully and legally employed?
18:44
Speaker 7: And this question LYDIA will go beyond just what other
18:48
Speaker 7: colleagues say. It now becomes an issue, a very substantive
18:51
Speaker 7: issue for those in the administration of the whole process
18:54
Speaker 7: of right away, possibly to the court where they said, well,
18:57
Speaker 7: it doesn't really matter what other colleagues say. Apparently you
19:02
Speaker 7: did not swear yourself in so oh well you and
19:07
Speaker 7: you admitted to it. Do you quite sort of open?
19:10
Speaker 7: How as funny I swore my allegiance to you to
19:15
Speaker 7: the hairs.
19:17
Speaker 8: Clever me clever?
19:18
Speaker 7: May well not so clever apparently because you might have
19:21
Speaker 7: found yourself out of a job. And you know, it's
19:24
Speaker 7: got nothing to do really now with whether what you
19:26
Speaker 7: said was outrageous, which was whether it collected a monumental
19:30
Speaker 7: national grown because it was so expected in your demeanor
19:33
Speaker 7: and your capacity, and not only by by or Caucasians
19:39
Speaker 7: but also by Aboriginal Australia.
19:41
Speaker 8: Everyone is sort.
19:42
Speaker 7: Of like, you don't represent us, you represent I know
19:46
Speaker 7: very small clique, and please don't put yourself out there
19:49
Speaker 7: as the representation of Aboriginal Australia because you're certainly not that.
19:54
Speaker 7: So you've admitted that you knowingly and wilfully did not
20:00
Speaker 7: where your oath of office, which is an essential part
20:03
Speaker 7: of you having the job that you've got.
20:05
Speaker 8: So it's out of our hands, Lydia, it's into the
20:08
Speaker 8: hands of others.
20:09
Speaker 7: Who are on own of your own volution and of
20:13
Speaker 7: your own announcement. You have told the world that you
20:16
Speaker 7: believe that you're not actually employed.
20:19
Speaker 8: After you go see where this ends up.
20:23
Speaker 3: Well, your colleagues and the Coalition have said they will
20:25
Speaker 3: pursue legal actions, so we'll see where that goes over
20:28
Speaker 3: the coming weeks. Lydia Thorpes also released a copy of
20:31
Speaker 3: a letter she wrote to King Charles last year seeking
20:35
Speaker 3: a personal meeting to discuss a treaty between the Crown
20:38
Speaker 3: and Aboriginal people now. The letter says that a war
20:42
Speaker 3: was declared on Aboriginal people two hundred years ago through
20:46
Speaker 3: quote the invasion of our lands. She goes on to write,
20:49
Speaker 3: we didn't have firearms and armies to counter your ancestors invasion,
20:54
Speaker 3: and ever since then our people have been feeling the
20:56
Speaker 3: impact of the diseases brought to our land, the dispossession, displacement,
21:01
Speaker 3: and the cultural disconnection forced upon us. Now, surprise, surprise,
21:05
Speaker 3: after that letter, the meeting never happened. I honestly cannot
21:09
Speaker 3: imagine why, and I'm pretty sure her antics this week
21:13
Speaker 3: are not going to help that meeting anytime in the future.
21:16
Speaker 7: Barnaby, Let's just go through the substance of a claim.
21:20
Speaker 7: First of all, there was no invasion of Australia. We
21:23
Speaker 7: had a whole group of people who didn't want to
21:25
Speaker 7: be convicts. We're taken from the other side of the world.
21:27
Speaker 8: Was not an army. Convicts were brought across, guarded by.
21:30
Speaker 7: People who do want to be here, administered by people
21:33
Speaker 7: who do want to be here, and met by people
21:34
Speaker 7: who didn't want them here. And from that miserable group
21:38
Speaker 7: of unhappy people, not miserable by their nature, by their character,
21:44
Speaker 7: but by the circumstances of which they found themselves in,
21:47
Speaker 7: we've created this incredible nation that we had that we
21:49
Speaker 7: should be so immensely proud of. Were we had all
21:53
Speaker 7: the reasons as a nation.
21:54
Speaker 8: To fail, and we succeeded.
21:56
Speaker 7: Now, there was no invasion there was no war against average.
22:00
Speaker 8: There was no Australian.
22:01
Speaker 7: General who went out with military tactics to fight against
22:05
Speaker 7: an Aboriginal army, nor was any Australian army ever led.
22:08
Speaker 7: There were policing issues or massacres. I'm not doubting that
22:11
Speaker 7: for one second. That were atrocities, No one doubts that.
22:14
Speaker 7: But there was no war.
22:16
Speaker 8: There was no.
22:17
Speaker 7: Person in an Australian uniform or British uniform under the
22:21
Speaker 7: guiding tactics of a purpose of succumbing an opposing enemy and.
22:28
Speaker 8: Taking of a nation. That just never happened.
22:30
Speaker 7: And therefore, you know this, when people say that, I
22:34
Speaker 7: really have to sort of state the truth, because otherwise
22:38
Speaker 7: this narrative, as times, this infective gets carried away and
22:42
Speaker 7: becomes this myth, becomes becomes legend, becomes truth, and it's
22:45
Speaker 7: not truth.
22:46
Speaker 8: So and the other thing.
22:49
Speaker 7: At that time, if the British hadn't turned up, luckily,
22:53
Speaker 7: I'd say luckily they did.
22:55
Speaker 8: Luckily they did because.
22:56
Speaker 7: They turned up. Remember Laperu's he arrived very very quickly. Afterwards,
23:01
Speaker 7: you would have been a French colony. If the French
23:03
Speaker 7: turned up, you would have been a Dutch colony. And
23:04
Speaker 7: God helped you. If the Belgians turned up, you see
23:07
Speaker 7: what they did in the Congo that you would have
23:08
Speaker 7: been a Belgian economy, or a Portuguese economy, or a
23:11
Speaker 7: Spanish colony, or a Chinese colony, or later on maybe
23:15
Speaker 7: a Japanese colony. But Australia was always going. It was
23:18
Speaker 7: not going to sit here in splanned isolation. It wasn't
23:20
Speaker 7: a matter of whether. It was a matter of who
23:23
Speaker 7: was going to be a foreign nation that arrived at
23:26
Speaker 7: the shores of Australia.
23:27
Speaker 8: And now we're part of that nation. And I am
23:31
Speaker 8: an Australian. I am not.
23:32
Speaker 7: I'm not Irish or English or I know the other
23:35
Speaker 7: heritages I have.
23:36
Speaker 8: I am as an Australian. I'm very proud of being
23:38
Speaker 8: an Australian. And I belong nowhere else but this nation.
23:41
Speaker 7: And I really get annoyed when people make a suggestion
23:44
Speaker 7: that I'm not an Australian, because I tried to give
23:48
Speaker 7: service to this nation in a number of ways like
23:50
Speaker 7: so many others. And you know, I don't need to
23:53
Speaker 7: qualify myself from my allegiance, to my name, to my country,
23:56
Speaker 7: and this is my.
23:57
Speaker 2: Country, barnaby. Before I let you go.
24:01
Speaker 3: The CSIRO has finally admitted it might be wrong. Back
24:05
Speaker 3: in May, our peak Science body said the estimated cost
24:09
Speaker 3: of nuclear power would be too expensive and take too
24:12
Speaker 3: long to build. They were quoting seventeen billion dollars for
24:15
Speaker 3: one large scale nuclear power plant that wouldn't be operational
24:18
Speaker 3: until twenty forty. I know you disagreed at the time,
24:22
Speaker 3: and many nuclear.
24:23
Speaker 2: Experts also disagreed.
24:25
Speaker 3: Well, now finally the CSIRO says it's prepared to reconsider
24:29
Speaker 3: its cost estimates.
24:31
Speaker 2: What do you make of that?
24:32
Speaker 8: Oh, well, the CSIRO is an Australian organization.
24:37
Speaker 7: It's Australian and Australia does not produce nuclear power. I mean,
24:43
Speaker 7: if you're going to be honest about this, and then
24:45
Speaker 7: they're trying this stupid.
24:46
Speaker 8: Slide of hand tricks. Now they're going to quote an.
24:49
Speaker 7: Australian organization about how what the costume the power? For
24:53
Speaker 7: all your listeners, we go to the facts. It's just
24:55
Speaker 7: not corrected in admitt of power. It's windle factories, you
24:58
Speaker 7: have wind towers, the solar panels, they're the dearest because
25:01
Speaker 7: they need firming, transmission firming being batteries, pope, hydro, all
25:05
Speaker 7: that go with it, and even then they're an admitted
25:07
Speaker 7: they don't run twenty seven. But if you want to
25:10
Speaker 7: talk to someone, talk to the people who produce nuclear energy.
25:13
Speaker 11: Talk to the people in Ontario and Canada and the
25:15
Speaker 11: United States of America and France and Finland and now
25:19
Speaker 11: the United Arab Emirates, because apparently all these people, if
25:22
Speaker 11: you believe Chris Barton and CSIRO, are all stupid. They're
25:25
Speaker 11: a whole world of stupid people, all with nuclear energy.
25:29
Speaker 11: And the enlightened ones, the smart ones, apparently are Australia,
25:31
Speaker 11: who actually don't have any nuclear energy, but they put
25:34
Speaker 11: out a report about nuclear energy saying that they don't
25:37
Speaker 11: want nuclear energy.
25:38
Speaker 7: And now they handed you go. Now they've got this committee,
25:40
Speaker 7: well you watch this community go for it. We will
25:42
Speaker 7: try our very best. But you wait, they will stack
25:45
Speaker 7: it with every one of their minions to reinforce the
25:49
Speaker 7: government's message.
25:50
Speaker 8: Thinking they can duke the.
25:51
Speaker 12: Australian people go to elections say oh, we told you
25:54
Speaker 12: not only do we have an organization that's only Australian
25:56
Speaker 12: who had an Australian committee that endorse the Australian organization
26:00
Speaker 12: talked about something Australia doesn't have which is beencouraging.
26:04
Speaker 3: Barnaby Joyce, I always enjoy our chats. Thanks so much
26:07
Speaker 3: for your time tonight. We'll stick around after the break.
26:11
Speaker 3: Queenslanders are about to go to the polls. Former Queensland
26:15
Speaker 3: Premier Campbell Newman will join me in just a moment.
26:22
Speaker 2: Welcome back well.
26:23
Speaker 3: On Saturday, Queenslander's head to the polls to decide the
26:26
Speaker 3: next premiere.
26:27
Speaker 2: David Chris Fooley seems to.
26:28
Speaker 3: Be in the box seat despite Stephen miles rather desperate campaign.
26:33
Speaker 3: Did I say rather desperate? It's been absolutely shamefully desperate.
26:37
Speaker 3: Miles has basically promised a lot of free stuff, none
26:40
Speaker 3: of which is actually free, and he's run a scare
26:43
Speaker 3: campaign on abortion.
26:46
Speaker 5: For fifty cent fares and to protect a woman's right
26:49
Speaker 5: to choose.
26:49
Speaker 13: It's really important that young people's voices are heard this election.
26:54
Speaker 1: Let's do this.
26:58
Speaker 3: As you can see it appeal to a lot of
27:00
Speaker 3: young people. Joining me as former Queen's end premier and
27:03
Speaker 3: still young Campbell Newman. Campbell, thanks for joining me tonight.
27:07
Speaker 3: David Chris Foley needs a net gain of twelve seats,
27:10
Speaker 3: which would mean a two party preferred swing of about
27:12
Speaker 3: six percent.
27:14
Speaker 2: Can he do it on Saturday. I think he can.
27:19
Speaker 14: But I've got to say I've been pretty worried in
27:23
Speaker 14: the last seven to ten days because the poles that
27:27
Speaker 14: have come out have shown two things. One to decline
27:31
Speaker 14: in his personal popularity, his net favorability, it's been quite
27:36
Speaker 14: quite marked. And also there's been a slippage in the
27:41
Speaker 14: two party preferred, a slight change in the in the primary.
27:44
Speaker 2: Right, so I'm concerned.
27:46
Speaker 14: And the most recent poles are showing sort of a
27:48
Speaker 14: primary for the Len pet about forty one. Well that's
27:51
Speaker 14: where the Newman government lost in twenty fifteen, a primary
27:55
Speaker 14: of forty one point three. I'll give you the combined
27:59
Speaker 14: Green and Labor Party primary vote is forty three compared
28:04
Speaker 14: to forty six again in twenty fifteen, So that gives
28:08
Speaker 14: you the two party preferred with them ahead. But you
28:10
Speaker 14: know it is it is of concern. I think the
28:14
Speaker 14: campaign's been quite difficult for the l in par They
28:17
Speaker 14: were treated as the laydown moziir sort of to be
28:22
Speaker 14: the next government and as a result, I think the
28:25
Speaker 14: coverage from the media has been such that the blow
28:28
Speaker 14: torch has been applied to the l in Per But
28:31
Speaker 14: a ten year incompetent labor government has pretty much got
28:34
Speaker 14: away with minimal scrutiny.
28:38
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a very good point.
28:40
Speaker 3: The other interesting part of this election has been the
28:43
Speaker 3: way Stephen Miles has tried to make the election all
28:46
Speaker 3: about abortion. Peter Dutton reckoned that it was a rus
28:50
Speaker 3: to distract from nine ten years of poor governance by labor.
28:54
Speaker 3: What have you made of that as a tactic by
28:58
Speaker 3: Stephen Miles and what have you made of the way
29:00
Speaker 3: the LNP David Christophooley in particular have responded to that
29:04
Speaker 3: or not responded.
29:07
Speaker 14: Well, Look, I want to correct something I said last
29:10
Speaker 14: Friday on Steve Price's show, where I sort of sought
29:14
Speaker 14: to say that I didn't think the impact was that great.
29:17
Speaker 14: I think that was wrong, and I'll say now I
29:19
Speaker 14: think the IMPACT's greater than I thought at the time.
29:23
Speaker 14: And here's the reason why. It's actually the way that
29:26
Speaker 14: the LNP have then dealt with it. And when we
29:30
Speaker 14: saw the third debate this week, Chris aph Fawley sadly
29:34
Speaker 14: almost took the Caboos over the cleft because there was
29:38
Speaker 14: a moment where he was being asked about abortion and
29:41
Speaker 14: he kept repeating his line about there'll be no change
29:44
Speaker 14: Miles then hit him with but do you support a
29:47
Speaker 14: woman's right to choose?
29:49
Speaker 1: He ducked it.
29:50
Speaker 14: Then, thankfully later in the debate he said what he
29:53
Speaker 14: pretty much should have said a week and a half
29:55
Speaker 14: or two weeks ago, which is a simple yes, he
29:58
Speaker 14: does that if it had been said a week and
30:01
Speaker 14: a half two weeks ago, would have diffused it. And
30:04
Speaker 14: I say to view as the saving and you that
30:07
Speaker 14: it's not just the women looking at it who might
30:11
Speaker 14: be concerned about the issue, it's the blokes who are
30:13
Speaker 14: sitting there going, well, why isn't this guy giving me
30:16
Speaker 14: a direct, straight answer? And that troubles me greatly. But
30:21
Speaker 14: he did deal with it, and the campaign has been dishonest.
30:24
Speaker 14: But the trouble with dishonest Labor Party campaign campaigns is
30:29
Speaker 14: they tend to have teeth and because they know how
30:32
Speaker 14: to do it.
30:35
Speaker 3: All right, let me throw a curly one at you.
30:37
Speaker 3: I want you to imagine for a moment that you're
30:40
Speaker 3: a Labor heavyweight. Are you happy that you replaced Anastasia
30:45
Speaker 3: Paloge with Stephen Miles or would you be looking at
30:47
Speaker 3: his campaign and thinking we should have stuck with Anapaloge.
30:53
Speaker 14: Well, this campaign has ended up being between these two personas.
30:59
Speaker 14: Probably that's the content test. I suppose Usually it's the
31:01
Speaker 14: daggy dad from the suburbs who smiles a lot, is inoffensive,
31:06
Speaker 14: he's a bit sort of god. He's like, you know,
31:08
Speaker 14: how did that guy get to be premier? But he's
31:10
Speaker 14: not scaring you versus the high energy focused man on
31:16
Speaker 14: a mission, and that's where that's going. I think the
31:20
Speaker 14: Labor Party made the right decision because Miles, by definition
31:25
Speaker 14: on these polls I was alluding to, has been clawing back.
31:29
Speaker 14: I personally Thoy were also quite amused almost to see
31:34
Speaker 14: that the Labor Party are already sort of getting ready
31:38
Speaker 14: with the recriminations and the blame game to blame Anastasia
31:41
Speaker 14: for not going early well in twenty twenty, she was
31:44
Speaker 14: elected by the people who have risen on the people
31:46
Speaker 14: of Queensland to be the premier. And the idea of
31:50
Speaker 14: bailing out sort of a year earlier, say, two years
31:53
Speaker 14: out from an election, certainly more than the ten months
31:56
Speaker 14: he gave Miles, I think is treading the voters absolutely shamelessly.
32:02
Speaker 14: So ten months, if Miles can't win it with that
32:06
Speaker 14: sort of head start, than he never was going to.
32:10
Speaker 14: So I think they should lay off Anastasia.
32:15
Speaker 3: Let me ask you one last question, this one about
32:17
Speaker 3: the Greens. They still think they can sway voters and
32:21
Speaker 3: they've promised to introduce a bill banning the Queensland government
32:25
Speaker 3: from outsourcing any hospital services to pro life groups like
32:30
Speaker 3: Marta Hospitals. Now they're saying it won't affect existing Marta hospitals,
32:34
Speaker 3: but there'll be no more Catholic hospitals in Queensland unless
32:38
Speaker 3: they agree to perform abortion services. That's what the Greens
32:42
Speaker 3: are saying. What do you think about that?
32:46
Speaker 14: Oh, look, it's just the us disgraceful, awful politics of
32:51
Speaker 14: the Greens political party. By the way, I believe that
32:57
Speaker 14: I'm not saying they're going to lose the seats they've
32:59
Speaker 14: got the queens and State Parliament, but they've certainly hurt
33:03
Speaker 14: themselves over the last twelve months with the whole Palestine
33:07
Speaker 14: stuff and their sort of anti Israel approach. I think
33:11
Speaker 14: that's biding. There's polls that have shown that that their
33:15
Speaker 14: primary voter is off and I think as time goes on,
33:19
Speaker 14: people are waking up to how bad these people are,
33:23
Speaker 14: how extreme they are, that they really don't have a
33:26
Speaker 14: legitimate role in government while I continue with these extremist policies.
33:33
Speaker 3: Campbell Newman, thanks for your time, and by the way,
33:37
Speaker 3: to remind everybody, Campbell will be part of Sky News'
33:39
Speaker 3: election coverage on Saturday evening along with former Premier and
33:43
Speaker 3: Stasia Palage, so make sure you tune in for that.
33:47
Speaker 2: We'll stick around after the break.
33:48
Speaker 3: Vandalism is apparently now art, and with less than two
33:53
Speaker 3: weeks to go until the US election, the Democrats have
33:55
Speaker 3: taken to calling Donald Trump hitler, that and a whole
33:58
Speaker 3: lot more in just a moment. Well Back in January
34:05
Speaker 3: last year, one of Australia's most famous pieces of art
34:08
Speaker 3: was defaced by climate activists. Frederick mccobbin's Down on His Luck,
34:13
Speaker 3: which is one hundred and thirty five years old and
34:15
Speaker 3: valued at well over three million dollars, was on display
34:17
Speaker 3: at the Art Gallery of West Australia. Climate protesters attacked
34:22
Speaker 3: the piece of art, spray painting the Woodside Oil Company's
34:25
Speaker 3: logo on the Perspex glass that was protecting the painting.
34:29
Speaker 1: Now.
34:29
Speaker 2: One of the.
34:30
Speaker 3: Vandals, who was employed as the Greens Nationals communications officer,
34:34
Speaker 3: was convicted of criminal damage and fined two thousand dollars
34:38
Speaker 3: as well as being ordered to pay five thousand dollars
34:40
Speaker 3: in damages.
34:40
Speaker 2: To the art gallery. But get this.
34:43
Speaker 3: Now we discover that the West Australian Museum has acquired
34:47
Speaker 3: the vandalized perspex screen, claiming it's an important part of
34:52
Speaker 3: Australian history and the vandal now says the museum's decision
34:56
Speaker 3: to regard her vandalism as historic means her actions were legitimate.
35:01
Speaker 3: Joining me is Liberal MP Garth Hamilton and Liz Stora
35:05
Speaker 3: from the late debate here on Sky News Monday to
35:07
Speaker 3: Thursday at ten pm. Liz, I don't see how this
35:11
Speaker 3: decision by the West Australian Museum does anything but convince
35:15
Speaker 3: these green idiots to go and spray paint even more
35:18
Speaker 3: works of.
35:18
Speaker 15: Art well, as long as they have a lazy seven
35:21
Speaker 15: k to give to the state for the honor chains.
35:24
Speaker 15: If anything, the state could be seeing this is some
35:26
Speaker 15: sort of weird revenue raising. They get two k for nothing,
35:30
Speaker 15: their museum gets five k, and we all know a
35:33
Speaker 15: piece of perspex doesn't cost five grand. But what I
35:37
Speaker 15: think is important here is a differentiation between an art
35:41
Speaker 15: gallery and a museum.
35:44
Speaker 16: So the chief exec at.
35:45
Speaker 15: This museum has said this acquisition is not indicative of.
35:49
Speaker 16: Support for the cause whatsoever. They are simply doing what
35:53
Speaker 16: museums do, and.
35:54
Speaker 15: That is to record issues affecting society, events happening as
36:01
Speaker 15: they happen. You may recall back in twenty twenty, museums
36:04
Speaker 15: around the US were snaffling up memorabilia from the Black
36:08
Speaker 15: Lives Matter protests and they burnt countless buildings to the
36:12
Speaker 15: ground in several cities.
36:14
Speaker 16: But this is what museums do.
36:15
Speaker 15: You can talk about the Vietnam War protests. There's masses
36:19
Speaker 15: of memorabilia in museums all around America. Name any protests,
36:24
Speaker 15: you're gonna find bits and pieces, and I guess they're
36:26
Speaker 15: just looking to the future and going, well, one day
36:29
Speaker 15: this may be historic. It's important to note this piece
36:32
Speaker 15: of Perspects is not on display. We're told there's no
36:35
Speaker 15: plans to put it on display. The downside is, like
36:39
Speaker 15: you say, we know that this has increasingly inflated already
36:44
Speaker 15: the massively overinflated sense of self importance these protesters have.
36:49
Speaker 15: And we know that because she told us so. So
36:51
Speaker 15: they love this because they see themselves as history makers
36:56
Speaker 15: in the making, and that is what this move validates,
36:59
Speaker 15: with which naturally, we're all grown and roll our eyes up.
37:05
Speaker 3: Well, Garth, I hear what Liz is saying about museums
37:07
Speaker 3: collecting history, but the last thing Liz said is absolutely correct.
37:11
Speaker 3: By doing that, they've now validated the actions of these people.
37:15
Speaker 3: Surely most Australians would say to the museum, give me
37:18
Speaker 3: a break, We're not collecting this sort of rubbish.
37:21
Speaker 17: Absolutely, And I'd imagine that most of the donors in Wa,
37:25
Speaker 17: which is where a lot of the source of funds
37:27
Speaker 17: go to that particular museum where they come from. They're
37:31
Speaker 17: all making their money out of the resources industry, out
37:33
Speaker 17: of the oil and gas industry, the people who are
37:35
Speaker 17: being demonized by these green activists. And I think what
37:39
Speaker 17: we're seeing here is what we see with a lot
37:40
Speaker 17: of the elites. They're happy to take the money from
37:43
Speaker 17: the people who do the hard work, the people in
37:45
Speaker 17: the blue collar shirts, out of the mind, with a
37:47
Speaker 17: bit of dirt underneath their fingernails, a bit of oil
37:50
Speaker 17: on their skin. They're happy to take their money, but
37:53
Speaker 17: they align themselves at every possible opportunity with the small
37:57
Speaker 17: vocal minority who want to tear things down. For one
38:00
Speaker 17: hundred and thirty five years that beautiful painting has gone
38:03
Speaker 17: through so many changes in the world. You know, think
38:06
Speaker 17: about all the changes and all the strife that's happened,
38:08
Speaker 17: all the conflict that's happened. But for some reason, these
38:12
Speaker 17: green activists think that they're the ones who get to
38:14
Speaker 17: attack it. They're the ones who get to try to
38:17
Speaker 17: deface it. Thankfully there was that screen there. I think
38:19
Speaker 17: we should be calling these people out for what they are.
38:21
Speaker 17: They're very small minded, very self conscious. They think that
38:26
Speaker 17: they're so important, these green activists.
38:29
Speaker 8: They're not.
38:30
Speaker 17: They'll be forgotten by history, whether this thing's are quiet
38:32
Speaker 17: or not. In another thirty five years time, they won't
38:35
Speaker 17: even be a footnote that we'll think about.
38:39
Speaker 3: Well, you know, it may not be the end of this,
38:41
Speaker 3: because I think Woodside provide a fair bit of money
38:44
Speaker 3: to the WA Museum.
38:46
Speaker 2: So we'll see whether the Woodside.
38:47
Speaker 3: Are happy to keep donating their funds knowing that that
38:51
Speaker 3: item has been collected by the museum that they're helping
38:55
Speaker 3: to pay for. Let's go to the US, where Donald
38:57
Speaker 3: Trump seems well and truly on track to win this election.
39:00
Speaker 3: That of course means the Democrats are getting absolutely desperate.
39:03
Speaker 3: Trump's former White House chief of Staff John Kelly has
39:06
Speaker 3: come out and said that Trump praised Adolf Hitler and
39:09
Speaker 3: that Trump prefers the dictator approach to government. And so
39:13
Speaker 3: the Democrats, of course, have had a field day with this.
39:16
Speaker 2: Have a look.
39:18
Speaker 18: This is a window and to who Donald Trump really
39:22
Speaker 18: is from the people who know him best, from the
39:25
Speaker 18: people who worked with him side by side in the
39:28
Speaker 18: Oval office and in the situation room. And it is
39:33
Speaker 18: clear from John Kelly's words that Donald Trump is someone
39:36
Speaker 18: who I quote certainly falls into the general definition of fascists.
39:44
Speaker 3: And the White House, well, they were pretty quick to
39:45
Speaker 3: jump on the bandwagon as well.
39:48
Speaker 19: You have heard from this president over and over again
39:52
Speaker 19: about the threats to democracy, and the president has spoken
39:56
Speaker 19: about that. You've heard from the former president himself saying
39:59
Speaker 19: that he is going to be a dictator on day one.
40:02
Speaker 17: This is him, not us.
40:04
Speaker 19: This is him, and it's not just It's not just
40:07
Speaker 19: us the White House saying this. You heard it from officials,
40:11
Speaker 19: former officials that worked for the former president say this
40:14
Speaker 19: as well. So you know, do we agree. I know
40:18
Speaker 19: that the Vice president just spoke about this. To agree
40:22
Speaker 19: about that determination, Yes we.
40:25
Speaker 3: Do, Liz, A threat to democracy a dictator from day
40:30
Speaker 3: one that Hitler. We've already had free assassination attempts calling
40:34
Speaker 3: Trump Hitler and a fascist. They're practically goating someone to
40:37
Speaker 3: take another shot at Trump.
40:39
Speaker 15: And with the amount of nutjobs that are fierce Democrat fans,
40:44
Speaker 15: it is genuinely a concern. But let's pay attention to
40:48
Speaker 15: this morsel of hearsay from this guy Kelly, who Trump tweeted,
40:55
Speaker 15: not tweeted, rather he wrote on his own platform truth
40:58
Speaker 15: Social just last year, couldn't.
41:00
Speaker 16: Stand the guy.
41:01
Speaker 15: He was one of my dumbest military minds ever and
41:05
Speaker 15: I fired him like a dog. So we are listening
41:09
Speaker 15: to this guy who has massive sour grapes against Trump.
41:14
Speaker 16: It's on the public record.
41:15
Speaker 15: They had a fraught relationship, and here he is coming
41:19
Speaker 15: out two seconds to midnight making these claims, which the
41:22
Speaker 15: Trump campaign have denied very thoroughly, saying, oh, he's a fascist,
41:28
Speaker 15: he wants to be a dictator like Trump. It is
41:31
Speaker 15: sheer nonsense, but it speaks to how desperate the Dems
41:35
Speaker 15: are right now to be taking any tiny morsel that
41:38
Speaker 15: they can get, be it hearsay or if they have
41:41
Speaker 15: to make it up themselves, to be smirched.
41:43
Speaker 16: Donald Trump.
41:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, Garth.
41:48
Speaker 3: Just forty eight hours ago, Barack Obama was bemoaning the
41:52
Speaker 3: fact that, you know, the conversation has become so toxic
41:55
Speaker 3: and bitter, and they are now calling Trump a fascist
41:58
Speaker 3: and he's going to be a dictator and he loves
42:00
Speaker 3: off Hitler.
42:02
Speaker 17: Well, look, I tend not to get myself drawn too
42:04
Speaker 17: far into American domestic politics, but if you find this distasteful,
42:08
Speaker 17: these personal attacks get used to them, because this is
42:12
Speaker 17: exactly the tactic the mystery alb and Easy is going
42:14
Speaker 17: to deploy, according to the papers this week, in the
42:17
Speaker 17: coming election against Peter Dutton. He's got his get Dutton
42:20
Speaker 17: campaign where he's going to firstly bespirch Peter in exactly
42:24
Speaker 17: the same way we're sort of hearing here, trying to
42:27
Speaker 17: tear a man down, making all of their campaign not
42:30
Speaker 17: about policy, not about the things that they will do
42:31
Speaker 17: for the Australian people, but a direct attack on Peter's character.
42:37
Speaker 17: And I think that's going to fail terribly because these
42:39
Speaker 17: attacks are exactly what they look like. They are poor
42:42
Speaker 17: and pathetic, and when applied to someone with the moral
42:44
Speaker 17: standing of Peter Dutton, I think the Australian people will
42:46
Speaker 17: see through.
42:47
Speaker 3: That Garth Hamilton, Liz Staura, thanks so much for your
42:52
Speaker 3: time and Liz will be watching on the Late Debate
42:54
Speaker 3: at ten o'clock tonight. We'll stick around because after the
42:57
Speaker 3: breaks and common sense from the woke you Prime minister.
43:01
Speaker 3: But is his Labor party interfering in the US election?
43:04
Speaker 3: Patrick Christie's joins me in just a moment. Well, I
43:11
Speaker 3: spoke earlier in the show about the Left's pushed to
43:13
Speaker 3: divide us by race, and finally we've actually got someone
43:16
Speaker 3: from the left making a sensible decision.
43:19
Speaker 2: Maybe.
43:20
Speaker 3: UK Prime Minister Kirs Starmer has said the Brits will
43:22
Speaker 3: not be paying reparations for slavery and climate change. His
43:26
Speaker 3: comments came ahead of the King's Heads of Commonwealth meeting
43:29
Speaker 3: happening in Samoa right now, where member states like the
43:32
Speaker 3: Bahamas and Barbados will push for trillions of pounds in
43:36
Speaker 3: compensation for britain sins. Joining me is GB News host
43:40
Speaker 3: Patrick Christie's Patrick, great to have your company. Keir Starmer
43:44
Speaker 3: says that agreeing to pay reparations would only result in
43:47
Speaker 3: never ending arguments. I think he's probably right about that,
43:51
Speaker 3: but will he.
43:52
Speaker 2: Stick to his guns?
43:57
Speaker 13: What It's difficult to believe him, mainly because the Labor
44:00
Speaker 13: Party here has spent years virtue signaling. Some would argue
44:04
Speaker 13: race baiting, being on the side of anti monarchy pro
44:08
Speaker 13: reparations groups, including our current Foreign Secretary, a chap called
44:12
Speaker 13: David Lammy, who is very vocal about his own family's
44:16
Speaker 13: Caribbean heritage, and stood up and said we and I'm
44:20
Speaker 13: talking about him referring to himself as being someone from
44:22
Speaker 13: the Caribbean there we demand reparations. Well that was only
44:26
Speaker 13: a few years ago, so that gives the green lights
44:29
Speaker 13: all of these groups. The other aspect to it is
44:31
Speaker 13: that they only have to look at how the Labor
44:32
Speaker 13: government has behaved in office so far, handing the Chagos
44:35
Speaker 13: Islands over to Mauritius without a shot being fired, despite
44:38
Speaker 13: the fact they never really belonged to Mauritius. They did
44:41
Speaker 13: say that that was to right, historical wrong, so that's
44:44
Speaker 13: going to be a problem. Mauritius, of course a close
44:46
Speaker 13: ally with China. We do also have a cultural movement
44:48
Speaker 13: in the UK spearheaded remarkably, but the Archbishop of Canterbury,
44:52
Speaker 13: who a while ago raised eyebrows when he said the
44:55
Speaker 13: church was going to pay one billion pounds in slavery reparations.
44:57
Speaker 13: Everybody said, why then it turns out yesterday his own father,
45:02
Speaker 13: sorry great great great grandfather, I should say, own slaves.
45:05
Speaker 13: So the Church of England is now paying for his
45:07
Speaker 13: own personal guilt. So there is a push to do
45:09
Speaker 13: this and it will be interesting to see whether or
45:11
Speaker 13: not our Foreign Secretary has changed his mind.
45:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, just on the Archbishop of Canterbury. I did note
45:18
Speaker 3: he didn't immediately put his hand in his own pocket
45:21
Speaker 3: to pay back the money, but the parishioner's money in
45:24
Speaker 3: the plate will be used to assuage his guilt. How
45:27
Speaker 3: you want to ask you about the US election, because
45:30
Speaker 3: it seems, according to Trump, that the UK government is interfering.
45:34
Speaker 3: Last week, Sophia Patel, Labour's director of operations, went on
45:38
Speaker 3: LinkedIn asking for volunteers to go to the US to.
45:41
Speaker 2: Campaign for Kamala Harris.
45:44
Speaker 3: Is this interference or is it just playing stupidity?
45:50
Speaker 13: It's both, it's both, and it's student politics now playing
45:53
Speaker 13: out on the world stage is absolutely unhinged and it's
45:56
Speaker 13: completely bonkers. So again, by the way, can I just
45:59
Speaker 13: say it's our old friend, the Foreign Secretary, David Lammy,
46:02
Speaker 13: who several years ago called Donald Trump and I quote
46:04
Speaker 13: a neo Nazi sympathizing woman hating sociopath that is now
46:08
Speaker 13: our Foreign secretary.
46:10
Speaker 2: Our labor mayor.
46:11
Speaker 13: Of London allowed a demonstration to take place when Trump,
46:14
Speaker 13: who was then president, turned up here on a state visit.
46:18
Speaker 13: He allowed a giant blimp of President Trump as a
46:22
Speaker 13: baby wearing a nappy to be hoisted over the city
46:26
Speaker 13: of London. So this is the track record of Labor
46:28
Speaker 13: when it comes to Trump. One hundred staff are now
46:30
Speaker 13: out there campaigning, knocking on doors for Kamala Harris. To
46:33
Speaker 13: be fair, I would have thought that would make it
46:34
Speaker 13: much more likely than Trump would win, but it does
46:36
Speaker 13: now increasingly look as though Trump is going to win,
46:39
Speaker 13: and he's angry and he's not the kind of man
46:41
Speaker 13: that takes this stuff lying down, is it? And the
46:43
Speaker 13: Labour Party now have been guilty of essentially running roughshot
46:46
Speaker 13: over our special relationship, being a massive gamble here with
46:50
Speaker 13: everyone in Britain, especially in these dangerous times. I mean,
46:52
Speaker 13: it's an absolute shocker. It's complete stupidity. Get a star
46:55
Speaker 13: with the Prime Minister's trying to say, well, these are
46:57
Speaker 13: people going out there in their own time.
47:00
Speaker 2: Well I'm Sorry, that's absolute rubbish.
47:02
Speaker 13: If it turns out that the Labour Party's head of
47:04
Speaker 13: operations has organized the whole thing, and is he not
47:06
Speaker 13: in control of these people? If he can't control members
47:09
Speaker 13: of his own party, his own activist, how can he
47:11
Speaker 13: expect to control the country. The only thing he has
47:13
Speaker 13: in common, may I say with Kamala Harris, is that
47:15
Speaker 13: he seems to both believe in open borders.
47:20
Speaker 3: Well, look if it encourages you a little bit, Patrick,
47:23
Speaker 3: Our ambassador to the US, Kevin Rudd, has said the
47:26
Speaker 3: most outrageous, horrible things about Donald Trump. So if Trump
47:31
Speaker 3: gets back into the White House, you guys are going
47:33
Speaker 3: to be out of favor and we are going to
47:35
Speaker 3: be abut of favor as well.
47:37
Speaker 2: But I mean, it's.
47:37
Speaker 3: Hardly a way to endear yourself to the likely next
47:40
Speaker 3: president of the US. The UK is supposed to be
47:43
Speaker 3: a great ally. It's very shortsighted.
47:49
Speaker 4: Yeah.
47:49
Speaker 13: And also the Democrats are not really our friends. They
47:52
Speaker 13: are massively pro European Union. They're very pro Germany. You know,
47:56
Speaker 13: you do only have to look at some of the
47:57
Speaker 13: things that Joe Biden has said about Britain in the past.
47:59
Speaker 13: I mean, he was them pro the Republic of Ireland
48:02
Speaker 13: because someone you know, a century ago whatever, one of
48:05
Speaker 13: his relatives came from there, which means he now hates us, apparently.
48:08
Speaker 2: Patrick, I'm the only come Patrick.
48:10
Speaker 3: We're gonna have to I don't have to interrupt I
48:13
Speaker 3: got to interrupt you, Patrick, because we've gotta I'm gonna
48:16
Speaker 3: go without a time. But I appreciate you joining me tonight.
48:18
Speaker 3: Thank you so much. Well that's all I've got time for, Andrew.
48:21
Speaker 3: Bat bolts were back on Monday, but coming up right
48:24
Speaker 3: now is Sharry Markson
