- 0:00Speaker 1: Wait wait, Welcome to.
- 0:03Speaker 2: The Late Pay Good Evening.
- 0:07Speaker 3: I'm James Macpherson with my good friends Caleb Bond and
- 0:10Speaker 3: the Nikker, the Georgio, who's completed her first week.
- 0:12Speaker 4: Well, I'm alive. I actually survived with you to thank God.
- 0:16Speaker 4: I mean, I deserve all the accolades for dealing with you, Tory. Really,
- 0:18Speaker 4: let's be honest.
- 0:19Speaker 1: God damn it.
- 0:19Speaker 5: I found a bookie who would take a bit that
- 0:22Speaker 5: you wouldn't make it through the week. And now I've
- 0:24Speaker 5: done my dog.
- 0:25Speaker 4: There's one there's still one hour left. Make that money, Cale,
- 0:29Speaker 4: don't worry.
- 0:30Speaker 3: Anything could happen. All right, here's what's coming up on
- 0:32Speaker 3: the program tonight. Grace Tame has canceled all speaking engagements
- 0:37Speaker 3: for twenty twenty six, claiming she's the victim of a
- 0:39Speaker 3: national smear campaign. CNN forced to apologize again for more
- 0:45Speaker 3: fake news, and the British government announces it will replace
- 0:48Speaker 3: Sir Winston Churchill on banknotes with Wildlife. All of that
- 0:52Speaker 3: coming up shortly, but first, be you there. Mike cannon
- 0:56Speaker 3: Brooks is replacing more than one thousand workers at at
- 0:59Speaker 3: Lancian with artificial intelligence. The businessman and occasional activist apologize
- 1:05Speaker 3: to one thousand, six hundred staff, mums, dads, young people
- 1:08Speaker 3: trying to make their way who are now superfluous to requirements.
- 1:13Speaker 6: I am deeply sorry for the disruption this creates in
- 1:16Speaker 6: your life. Even at a moment like this, and especially
- 1:21Speaker 6: at a moment like this, your impact and contributions matter
- 1:25Speaker 6: here massively. I want to say thank you for all
- 1:30Speaker 6: of those contributions. Your work will live on in our products,
- 1:33Speaker 6: in the experience of our customers, and in the culture
- 1:36Speaker 6: that you've helped us build and create. It's an incredibly
- 1:39Speaker 6: hard decision, but I still believe that it's the right one.
- 1:45Speaker 3: I suspect the words wrapped around this don't really matter
- 1:48Speaker 3: to those let go.
- 1:49Speaker 2: All they would have heard is you no longer have
- 1:51Speaker 2: a job.
- 1:52Speaker 3: But with the cost of labor and the rapid development
- 1:54Speaker 3: of AI, I don't think they're going to be the
- 1:56Speaker 3: last group of Australians replaced by bots coleb Look.
- 2:01Speaker 5: I understand why this has been done as a business decision.
- 2:06Speaker 5: I mean, mister canon Brooks himself has a fever of
- 2:09Speaker 5: money tied up in his company. I think it's nineteen
- 2:13Speaker 5: billion dollars personally. He's done in his dough in terms
- 2:17Speaker 5: of what they've lost in the share price now, so
- 2:20Speaker 5: he's got to do something. I get that he's running
- 2:23Speaker 5: a business. He wants to make a profit. That's your
- 2:25Speaker 5: prerogative as a boss. But it really worries me where
- 2:29Speaker 5: this is going when you've got big companies. At Lassie
- 2:33Speaker 5: is a big Australian company, has to lay off ten
- 2:37Speaker 5: percent of its workforce because AI is now threatening the
- 2:41Speaker 5: way that business is done. And the problem for at
- 2:43Speaker 5: Lassie is that it's a software company and all of
- 2:46Speaker 5: these people, the brains behind the software, are now having
- 2:49Speaker 5: their jobs. And once upon a time, this is what
- 2:51Speaker 5: we were told.
- 2:52Speaker 1: This is the future.
- 2:53Speaker 5: You know, kids, go and learn to code, because these
- 2:56Speaker 5: are the jobs that you'll be going for when you
- 2:57Speaker 5: leave school.
- 2:58Speaker 1: Will those jobs are now.
- 2:59Speaker 5: Being superseded by robots that have worked out how to
- 3:03Speaker 5: mimic the individuals who ironically have then total these bots
- 3:07Speaker 5: how to do these things.
- 3:08Speaker 1: I mean, I think we should.
- 3:09Speaker 5: Just stop, just stop teaching the bots. Refuse to have
- 3:13Speaker 5: anything to do with AI. Get rid of it regulated.
- 3:17Speaker 5: I mean, it was three years ago. I think you
- 3:19Speaker 5: had Elon Musk and Steve Wozniak and all these people
- 3:23Speaker 5: high up in the tech world saying we need to
- 3:24Speaker 5: pause on AI.
- 3:25Speaker 1: We need a moratorium until.
- 3:27Speaker 5: We've worked out how to properly regulate this thing, because
- 3:29Speaker 5: it could be the end of the world that didn't happen.
- 3:32Speaker 1: And here we are at the point where we.
- 3:33Speaker 5: Have mass job losses, mass jobs being replaced by bots.
- 3:37Speaker 5: It is bad for the world because what are these
- 3:40Speaker 5: people going to do now? What other jobs do they
- 3:42Speaker 5: go and get.
- 3:43Speaker 4: Well, firstly, I just want to point out the irony
- 3:45Speaker 4: on all of this, because Mike cannon Brooks is a massive,
- 3:48Speaker 4: raging greenie and did you know that artificial intelligence is
- 3:51Speaker 4: one of the highest carbon footprints in the world, So
- 3:54Speaker 4: it's just ironic the companies going down this pathway. I
- 3:56Speaker 4: actually disagree with you on this, Kaleb. I think that
- 3:59Speaker 4: we just need to start embracing the way of the future.
- 4:02Speaker 4: I do obviously think that AI is now a beast
- 4:05Speaker 4: that has been unleashed. It is largely unregulated. There's nothing
- 4:08Speaker 4: that we can do about it now that the horses
- 4:10Speaker 4: has bolted. But to me, it's like akin to say,
- 4:14Speaker 4: an older workforce learning how to use social media. Well,
- 4:17Speaker 4: now we've got to learn how to adapt in this
- 4:20Speaker 4: very rapidly changing world of AI. I don't think overall
- 4:23Speaker 4: that AI will eventually replace all jobs, but I do
- 4:27Speaker 4: think that there is a big role to play in
- 4:30Speaker 4: replacing certain skills. I mean, like, for example, one of
- 4:33Speaker 4: my close friends is a lawyer and they even use
- 4:36Speaker 4: AI in the law firm as well. I don't think
- 4:39Speaker 4: that we can escape it now. I think the horse
- 4:42Speaker 4: has absolutely bolted and I actually think we should embrace it.
- 4:46Speaker 4: And I've only started using AI in the last few
- 4:49Speaker 4: months and I am so impressed by it. I feel
- 4:53Speaker 4: like for me it has replaced Google as a search
- 4:57Speaker 4: engine because AI is quick and can give you the
- 4:59Speaker 4: in information you need very rapidly. I don't trust everything
- 5:05Speaker 4: that it says.
- 5:05Speaker 1: I already you know, you've then got to go and
- 5:07Speaker 1: verify yourself to.
- 5:08Speaker 4: It's not that, but like little things like you can
- 5:11Speaker 4: do things around the house for example, you can you know,
- 5:14Speaker 4: in terms of the garden, like that's a really lay
- 5:16Speaker 4: the guard as a real live example. But it gives
- 5:19Speaker 4: you really, really good advice about small little things. And
- 5:22Speaker 4: I am honestly shocked and so impressed by the capabilities
- 5:28Speaker 4: of say chat GPT for example.
- 5:30Speaker 3: Isn't this akin to the Industrial Revolution, when people sounded
- 5:34Speaker 3: dislike you, Caleb, fretting that this is the end of jobs.
- 5:36Speaker 3: All these people won't be gainfully employed ever again. And
- 5:40Speaker 3: of course the Industrial Revolution did mean a whole lot
- 5:42Speaker 3: of jobs disappeared, but a whole lot more jobs were created.
- 5:46Speaker 3: And where in that everyone says they hate change, right,
- 5:48Speaker 3: most people actually love change.
- 5:50Speaker 2: They just don't like the transition.
- 5:52Speaker 3: And we are those privileged or doomed, however you see it,
- 5:55Speaker 3: to live in the transition period where we're moving from
- 5:58Speaker 3: one sort of economy to a new economy, and of
- 6:00Speaker 3: course it's going to be uncomfortable, But I honestly think
- 6:03Speaker 3: once we come out the other side, just as in
- 6:05Speaker 3: the Industrial Revolution, everyone will look back and say, you know,
- 6:08Speaker 3: what was a rough transition, but look how much better
- 6:11Speaker 3: the world has become and how much advanced we've been
- 6:14Speaker 3: able to progress.
- 6:15Speaker 5: I think there is a difference with AI, though, because yes,
- 6:17Speaker 5: the Industrial Revolution fundamentally changed the way that manufacturing operated,
- 6:23Speaker 5: but manual jobs that were previously done by a person
- 6:27Speaker 5: that were then taken over by a machine then required
- 6:30Speaker 5: people to service and maintain and build that machine. And
- 6:33Speaker 5: the machine doesn't just sort of come into being, right,
- 6:37Speaker 5: so there were still manufacturing jobs. You were simply now
- 6:40Speaker 5: making the machine.
- 6:41Speaker 1: That did what used to be your job.
- 6:43Speaker 5: The difference with AI is that its purpose is to
- 6:47Speaker 5: actually replace the human being. Now it does that by
- 6:50Speaker 5: learning how human beings operate and mimicking human beings. But
- 6:54Speaker 5: for instance, you say, okay, well we'll have AI driven
- 6:59Speaker 5: automated trucks and cars and things like this. Now, you
- 7:03Speaker 5: don't create any new jobs by doing that, because there
- 7:07Speaker 5: are already cars on the road being maintained in the
- 7:09Speaker 5: forms of taxis and whatever.
- 7:11Speaker 1: All you're going to do is take the person.
- 7:12Speaker 5: Out who was otherwise sitting in that vehicle. I think
- 7:15Speaker 5: it does create mass job losses in a way that
- 7:18Speaker 5: the industrial revolution doesn't. And James, you should watch your
- 7:21Speaker 5: own back too.
- 7:22Speaker 1: Because I'm telling you next they'll be coming after.
- 7:25Speaker 4: You were sitting.
- 7:26Speaker 6: Hey, guys, and welcome to the late debate on Sky
- 7:28Speaker 6: News tonight.
- 7:29Speaker 2: We're discussing AI. It seems the job losses could be
- 7:32Speaker 2: close to home.
- 7:34Speaker 1: Now, Look, they're not an entirely accurate depictions.
- 7:36Speaker 2: I quite like that.
- 7:38Speaker 5: Find that it's you know, you've got a lot more
- 7:40Speaker 5: here than you do, and it's it's quite dark too.
- 7:42Speaker 5: But that'll be the next vanguard too. They'll try and
- 7:45Speaker 5: replace us, They'll replace reporters. I mean, why do you
- 7:48Speaker 5: need a court report.
- 7:49Speaker 2: I disagree with you that.
- 7:50Speaker 4: I think we've actually got a photo of Mike Cannum
- 7:52Speaker 4: Brooks alongside one of his new new workers. If we
- 7:55Speaker 4: can bring up the split screen shot, do we have
- 7:59Speaker 4: the picture? There we go, Canon Brooks next to his
- 8:01Speaker 4: new worker, Mi co Canoni Brooks.
- 8:03Speaker 2: The AI has no heart, but.
- 8:05Speaker 4: The tin man, the tin man.
- 8:07Speaker 3: I disagree with you that AI self driving trucks will mean,
- 8:10Speaker 3: you know, no jobs. I mean jobs for paramedics will
- 8:13Speaker 3: go through the.
- 8:13Speaker 2: Roof with all the accidents exactly.
- 8:16Speaker 1: This is the problem, you know.
- 8:17Speaker 5: I don't think it's going to be a net benefit
- 8:20Speaker 5: for the world. And I'm told by people who work
- 8:22Speaker 5: in the sector as well that there's all this money
- 8:24Speaker 5: swimming around in AI that sort of you know, it's
- 8:27Speaker 5: just changing hands between companies.
- 8:29Speaker 1: It's it's not real money.
- 8:31Speaker 5: It's a bubble, effectively, and at some point that bubble
- 8:34Speaker 5: will have to burst and God knows what happens with you.
- 8:36Speaker 4: But it's cutting it's cutting jobs like it's cutting the
- 8:38Speaker 4: work time in half. It's cutting labor in half. And
- 8:41Speaker 4: that's why I think with the work it's just yet
- 8:43Speaker 4: for employers to cheaper option, but the much cheaper option.
- 8:48Speaker 5: Then, but then employers require people who have money to
- 8:51Speaker 5: buy their products.
- 8:51Speaker 1: And if you don't have a job, you don't have
- 8:53Speaker 1: money to do.
- 8:53Speaker 3: Just back to your earlier comment, as someone who's got
- 8:55Speaker 3: to do some gardening this weekend, if you could flip
- 8:58Speaker 3: me how to use AI to do the after the show, take.
- 9:01Speaker 4: A photo of your plant, put it in a I'm serious,
- 9:04Speaker 4: take a photo of your plant, put it into chat GPT.
- 9:07Speaker 4: You'll tell you everything that's wrong with it. I'm serious.
- 9:09Speaker 2: I want to get rid of the weed. I want
- 9:11Speaker 2: to know.
- 9:11Speaker 1: I want to get He wants the robot.
- 9:15Speaker 4: He wants the manual rowbody doesn't want to come on. Sorry, Okay,
- 9:19Speaker 4: well look now this is a possible another reason of
- 9:21Speaker 4: the benefits of AI. It's to stop employees from taking
- 9:27Speaker 4: the piss. Now, have a look at this story. This woman,
- 9:30Speaker 4: her name is Jody Dawnis. She has taken one hundred
- 9:35Speaker 4: and fourteen sick days in a year one hundred and fourteen.
- 9:39Speaker 4: She is a Brisbane City cat worker employed by a
- 9:41Speaker 4: transport company Callissian group. She's lost her bid for compensation
- 9:45Speaker 4: after she was sacked four repeated absence from work, So
- 9:48Speaker 4: one hundred and fourteen days in twelve months. I worked
- 9:50Speaker 4: out that's about five and a half months of a year.
- 9:53Speaker 4: That's a working week, that's a standard five day working week.
- 9:57Speaker 4: But she was dismissed in July after kelsey And concluded
- 10:02Speaker 4: that her medical condition precluded her from reliably working on
- 10:06Speaker 4: the boats. So this is the part of the transport company.
- 10:09Speaker 4: Now all preface that she does suffer from deep vein
- 10:12Speaker 4: Thrombosas she began experiencing recurring blood clots causing her to
- 10:17Speaker 4: suffer information and pain, she said that she was going
- 10:19Speaker 4: to work and that the pain simply became unbearable. Now
- 10:24Speaker 4: I'll make a comment about this in a moment, but
- 10:26Speaker 4: it got me thinking to Ferris Bueller's day off. Have
- 10:31Speaker 4: a look at this.
- 10:33Speaker 6: This is my ninth set day this semester.
- 10:36Speaker 1: It's getting pretty tough coming up with new illnesses.
- 10:40Speaker 4: I mean, spot on, right, spot on. Now here's what
- 10:43Speaker 4: I'll say about this. I am not by no means
- 10:46Speaker 4: taking away from the severity and the seriousness of her condition.
- 10:50Speaker 4: She's obviously lived in a lot of pain, and I
- 10:53Speaker 4: do hope that she gets better. However, seriously, one hundred
- 10:59Speaker 4: and fourteen sick days in twelve months, that is impossible
- 11:04Speaker 4: for the employer. The employer is not there to babysit you,
- 11:09Speaker 4: to be able to guide you through your medical issues.
- 11:12Speaker 4: The company is looking to one make a product and
- 11:16Speaker 4: two make a profit rather and two boost productivity that
- 11:20Speaker 4: you become a complete hindrance and a reliability to the company. Now,
- 11:24Speaker 4: your average Australian worker, if you are full time, you
- 11:26Speaker 4: only get ten sick days per year. Ten and I
- 11:30Speaker 4: personally think that ten per day is standard. Per year
- 11:34Speaker 4: is standard, and I actually think it is ten per day. Well,
- 11:37Speaker 4: Caleb's gone already, but I think that that is fair,
- 11:40Speaker 4: and I think that this makes a total mockery of
- 11:43Speaker 4: the system. And you can't and then then what bosses
- 11:47Speaker 4: get hold in front of the Fair Work Commission like
- 11:49Speaker 4: in this case because she was dismissed. I mean, she
- 11:52Speaker 4: wasn't able to do her job. Again, I'm not taking
- 11:55Speaker 4: away from the severity of her condition, but she wasn't there,
- 11:58Speaker 4: she wasn't able to perform a function.
- 12:00Speaker 3: She's taken eleven years worth of sick leave, in twelve months,
- 12:05Speaker 3: and as you rightly said, your employer is not your care,
- 12:09Speaker 3: they're your employer. So I think everyone would wish her well,
- 12:12Speaker 3: But an employer can't be expected to keep carrying someone
- 12:15Speaker 3: who essentially has been absent every other day for twelve months.
- 12:19Speaker 2: Though she really.
- 12:21Speaker 3: Is a bit of a nothing burger in terms of
- 12:23Speaker 3: taking sickies, because last year a German school teacher had
- 12:27Speaker 3: been revealed to have taken sixteen years of sickly and
- 12:31Speaker 3: got away with it by simply submitting a medical certificate
- 12:34Speaker 3: every month, and they just kept ticking it off, ticking
- 12:37Speaker 3: it off, until they did an auditive staff and realized
- 12:39Speaker 3: this person had been paid almost two million dollars over
- 12:42Speaker 3: sixteen years for sitting at home doing nothing.
- 12:45Speaker 5: You know, there is a job out there that is
- 12:46Speaker 5: perfect for that person, because if you can think up
- 12:49Speaker 5: those sort of schemes and get away with it, you're
- 12:52Speaker 5: the sort of person who should be working at the
- 12:53Speaker 5: ATO finding out what everyone else is doing to defraud
- 12:56Speaker 5: the nation.
- 12:57Speaker 1: To be perfectly honest, I mean, you know.
- 12:59Speaker 5: I've I feel sorry for If she's in pain, then
- 13:02Speaker 5: she clearly has problems, but it's not the responsibility of
- 13:05Speaker 5: the employer to put up with that.
- 13:07Speaker 1: I mean, it's a matter between you and your employer.
- 13:09Speaker 5: If you've got some sort of long term illness that
- 13:12Speaker 5: means you're going to need a lot of time off work,
- 13:13Speaker 5: go and.
- 13:14Speaker 1: Talk to your boss about it.
- 13:15Speaker 5: Absolutely, you go and say, look, i've got this going on,
- 13:19Speaker 5: I would like to keep working.
- 13:20Speaker 1: I understand it's difficult at the moment.
- 13:22Speaker 5: Can I perhaps have some extra time off on the
- 13:24Speaker 5: understanding that I'll come.
- 13:25Speaker 1: Back at a certain point in time.
- 13:27Speaker 5: Like these are the sorts of things that you should
- 13:29Speaker 5: be able to deal with your employer directly on, rather
- 13:32Speaker 5: than taking lots of sick days and then going off
- 13:34Speaker 5: to the Fair Work Commission and saying, well, it was
- 13:36Speaker 5: wrong that I was sacked with What sort of position
- 13:39Speaker 5: is the employer meant to be putting exactly?
- 13:40Speaker 4: You're putting them in an absolute impossible position. I don't
- 13:43Speaker 4: know why anybody would want to go into business right
- 13:45Speaker 4: now in this country when you've got workers who are
- 13:48Speaker 4: dealing you're dealing with all this II. That's what I mean.
- 13:52Speaker 4: This is an example. But you've got rising energy bills,
- 13:55Speaker 4: you've got ir laws, you've got the unions with their
- 13:58Speaker 4: fingers in every part. You've got progressive employees wanting benefits
- 14:02Speaker 4: here they know, gender equality and all this nonsense in
- 14:05Speaker 4: the webplace. Please seriously, why would you want to go
- 14:08Speaker 4: into business? Right now?
- 14:09Speaker 5: Well, that's right, but at least it was you know,
- 14:11Speaker 5: good old fashioned sickly if it wasn't gender affirming evils, right,
- 14:15Speaker 5: I can kind of respect that. Now, a very interesting
- 14:19Speaker 5: story that to developed after Tuesday nights Asia Cup match
- 14:23Speaker 5: against Taiwan. Now I call it Taiwan because of course
- 14:27Speaker 5: that's what the country's called. I know I'm probably going
- 14:30Speaker 5: to be hauled off by the CCP now for having
- 14:32Speaker 5: said this, but this is the pertinent part of this story.
- 14:35Speaker 5: Taiwan plays a game at the Asia Cup. Now they
- 14:39Speaker 5: are known in the competition as Chinese Taipei. That is
- 14:42Speaker 5: done to appease the Chinese, essentially, because they don't believe
- 14:47Speaker 5: that Taiwan is a real country. They believe it belongs
- 14:50Speaker 5: to mainland China, and they don't like it being called Taiwan.
- 14:53Speaker 5: It is to them Chinese Taipei, and you so often
- 14:56Speaker 5: see in sporting events that they sort of been the
- 14:59Speaker 5: need to that in order to accommodate China competing in
- 15:04Speaker 5: those same competitions. But if you're from Taiwan, I mean,
- 15:08Speaker 5: of course you're going to call your team Taiwan right
- 15:12Speaker 5: into shen Quei Xen. Now, I'm sorry if I have
- 15:15Speaker 5: mispronounced his name, but he is the former head coach
- 15:19Speaker 5: of the Taiwanese male soccer team. He goes to Paramatta
- 15:23Speaker 5: Stadium on Tuesday night to watch the Taiwanese women play.
- 15:27Speaker 5: There weren't too many people in the stadium. There was
- 15:29Speaker 5: a small group there, and he was basically the head
- 15:33Speaker 5: of the cheer squad. He corralled all these people into
- 15:36Speaker 5: the same little zone and got them to join in
- 15:38Speaker 5: with some chants that included the word Taiwan, No Taiwan, Hey, Hey, Hey.
- 16:00Speaker 7: What.
- 16:06Speaker 1: I mean?
- 16:06Speaker 5: How good is that the former coach of the men's
- 16:08Speaker 5: team there to support the women's team, loves his country,
- 16:12Speaker 5: is ginging up the crowd, He's getting them into the game.
- 16:14Speaker 1: What could possibly be wrong with that?
- 16:16Speaker 4: Now?
- 16:17Speaker 5: Security came along at one point and told him to
- 16:19Speaker 5: sit down. Fair enough. He complied with that, but after
- 16:22Speaker 5: the crowd continued to chant Taiwan, they came and took
- 16:26Speaker 5: him away. Gentleman to leave. Well, we don't want the
- 16:30Speaker 5: place to get involved, I said with the drabby Steve, He's.
- 16:35Speaker 4: No, it's unclare.
- 16:37Speaker 1: We have not any particle chance and non also for
- 16:45Speaker 1: the changing as well for the chanting, so we're not
- 16:48Speaker 1: allowed to change.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Just change again. It's decisions.
- 16:51Speaker 1: I'm not making a decision.
- 16:52Speaker 2: I'm just relying to you the information that.
- 16:54Speaker 5: I was given. So he's been told by security via
- 16:57Speaker 5: obviously the organizers of the Asian Cup that he can't
- 17:02Speaker 5: say Taiwan, that he can't chant Taiwan when Taiwan is
- 17:06Speaker 5: playing because that is a quote unquote political chart. I mean,
- 17:11Speaker 5: how extraordinary you've come to play in Australia. We're not
- 17:16Speaker 5: in CCP controlled China and you get kicked out of
- 17:19Speaker 5: a sporting match in Australia Sydney, Australia for simply chanting
- 17:25Speaker 5: the name of your country, Taiwan when they're on the field.
- 17:29Speaker 5: Grace who was at that match, she was witnessed to
- 17:33Speaker 5: all of this. She spoke to Caroline Marcus. The full
- 17:36Speaker 5: interview will be played after this program on the Reta
- 17:39Speaker 5: Panahy Show, but here's a snippet of what she had
- 17:41Speaker 5: to say.
- 17:43Speaker 7: You know, you look around our good friends by India,
- 17:48Speaker 7: they are able to chant. They have their own self
- 17:51Speaker 7: made instruments. They can like a drum kind of plastic
- 17:55Speaker 7: they can hit so hard and then they chair for
- 17:58Speaker 7: their national team, whereas us we can't do any of this.
- 18:03Speaker 7: Why can't we bring our flag into the stadium and
- 18:08Speaker 7: we are in Australia, we should be able to do.
- 18:11Speaker 7: You know, this is a free land. We should be
- 18:14Speaker 7: able to do what we want to do to support
- 18:18Speaker 7: our national team. We are not breaking any rules on.
- 18:24Speaker 5: How is it that you can be kicked out of
- 18:26Speaker 5: a sporting match in Australia for simply saying Taiwan. I mean,
- 18:30Speaker 5: you know we manage to just let the CCP come
- 18:33Speaker 5: and take over the joint.
- 18:34Speaker 3: How foolish must these people be feeling? I mean if
- 18:36Speaker 3: they'd only chanted from the river to the sea.
- 18:41Speaker 2: Instead they chanted Taiwan.
- 18:43Speaker 3: While you're out to call the chant of Taiwan a
- 18:47Speaker 3: political chance that the politicization here is the insistence on
- 18:51Speaker 3: calling Taiwan Chinese Taipei. That's the political chant, as you said, Caleb,
- 18:57Speaker 3: done to appeace China. The interesting news here is that
- 19:01Speaker 3: Chinese Taipei Taiwan won the game and have qualified to
- 19:06Speaker 3: go through to the quarter finals, which will be played
- 19:08Speaker 3: on Saturday. Question for both of you, do you know
- 19:11Speaker 3: who they are playing? They're playing on Saturday.
- 19:13Speaker 4: They're playing China.
- 19:14Speaker 2: They're playing for popcorn out.
- 19:16Speaker 3: Every person in the country will be barracking for what's
- 19:19Speaker 3: the name of the team?
- 19:22Speaker 2: I want I tell you what. We'll all want Taiwan
- 19:25Speaker 2: to win, won't we?
- 19:26Speaker 4: Of course absolutely? Firstly, how politicized has the Asian Cup been?
- 19:30Speaker 4: I don't think we've ever seen anything like this from
- 19:33Speaker 4: this saga of course, and then the Iranian soccer girls
- 19:37Speaker 4: as well. I don't think we've ever had a game
- 19:40Speaker 4: which is meant to be a fair, even fun match.
- 19:43Speaker 2: Have the Matilda's even been playing well, I.
- 19:46Speaker 4: Mean knows, because we're talking about Taiwan and.
- 19:48Speaker 2: I haven't heard anything about it.
- 19:50Speaker 4: I just can't believe that this has gone on. But
- 19:52Speaker 4: the second, how does this happen in Australia, Because this
- 19:55Speaker 4: is the sort of thing that you would say, I
- 19:57Speaker 4: would say in China or in North Career where people
- 20:01Speaker 4: are marched out like this. But it also is quite
- 20:05Speaker 4: dangerous when you think about it, that we've got Australian
- 20:08Speaker 4: officials pandering to the Chinese Communist Party from the other
- 20:12Speaker 4: side of the world. And I just wonder what sort
- 20:16Speaker 4: of influence there is for them or what they've been told.
- 20:20Speaker 4: Were these officials worded up at the start that there
- 20:23Speaker 4: might be some within the crowd who might seek to
- 20:26Speaker 4: I mean, I don't even think it's a divisive It's
- 20:28Speaker 4: obviously not divisive to say Taiwan. But were they worded
- 20:32Speaker 4: up initially to say, you know, if somebody says Taiwan
- 20:35Speaker 4: or tries to barrack for Taiwan, make sure you're arrested,
- 20:38Speaker 4: because what we don't want to upset who China's on
- 20:41Speaker 4: the other side of the world. For goodness sake, we're not.
- 20:43Speaker 3: Sometimes they're just off our East coast doing live firing.
- 20:46Speaker 4: Sometimes as spying on us, spying around the coast. That's it.
- 20:51Speaker 4: I just wonder why, if at all, were they given
- 20:55Speaker 4: a heads up? And that is a and if they were,
- 20:58Speaker 4: that's a concern to me.
- 20:59Speaker 5: What ticket cost, you know, on Saturday to go to
- 21:02Speaker 5: the final? You know, no idea because I'm thinking, you know,
- 21:06Speaker 5: we're all going to James's place for dinner on Saturday night,
- 21:09Speaker 5: but I'm thinking maybe Saturday afternoon, we got women's football
- 21:13Speaker 5: kick down the stage and start chanting Taiwan. I mean, look,
- 21:18Speaker 5: presumably you'll get a bigger crowd to this match. You know,
- 21:21Speaker 5: what are they going to do if we all just
- 21:23Speaker 5: start shouting Taiwan?
- 21:24Speaker 4: Well we might get arrested.
- 21:25Speaker 2: Well that week.
- 21:27Speaker 4: That will make great television debate next week, the three
- 21:31Speaker 4: of us being arrested. But it's true. I mean, what
- 21:34Speaker 4: would happen? And I think there will be people that
- 21:36Speaker 4: go to that match on Saturday who are going to
- 21:39Speaker 4: do exactly that and deliberately it will actually draw more
- 21:42Speaker 4: attention to it than otherwise would have.
- 21:45Speaker 2: You guys should do that Saday afternoon.
- 21:46Speaker 3: There'll be more sausages on the barbecue at my place
- 21:48Speaker 3: Saturday night.
- 21:49Speaker 2: All right.
- 21:50Speaker 3: Former Australian of the Year Grace Team says she will
- 21:52Speaker 3: no longer be doing any paid speaking engagements, at least
- 21:57Speaker 3: for this year. Not because she doesn't want to, but
- 21:59Speaker 3: I've repaid engagement she has forward from now has been
- 22:04Speaker 3: canceled because of pressure put on organizers over comments she
- 22:08Speaker 3: made that I'll show you shortly.
- 22:10Speaker 2: I'm sure you remember them.
- 22:11Speaker 3: Grace Tamee was speaking at a conference in Hobart this morning,
- 22:14Speaker 3: where she told the crowd, this is my last presentation
- 22:17Speaker 3: for the year due to an ongoing national smear campaign.
- 22:22Speaker 3: I've lost all my speaking for the foreseeable future. So
- 22:24Speaker 3: many cowardly others capitulated. I think this will be a
- 22:28Speaker 3: blip and I'm tough. They can't outrun me.
- 22:31Speaker 2: Literally.
- 22:31Speaker 3: Now, has there been a campaign to smear Grace Tame
- 22:35Speaker 3: or did she smear herself from.
- 22:39Speaker 7: Gadigl to Gaza Flobalfe the Incha side.
- 22:42Speaker 4: I was on my time from Gadigol to Gaza Globaline.
- 22:50Speaker 3: Now if that wasn't reason to remove her from your
- 22:53Speaker 3: speaking brochure, even the Prime Minister thinks, well.
- 22:56Speaker 2: You know what he thinks, Pauline Hansen.
- 23:00Speaker 3: Divisive, Australia Day, Australia Day, Great, Grace Tame.
- 23:11Speaker 2: Difficult. And I think that's the point.
- 23:14Speaker 3: People who have had Grace Tame speaking at their events
- 23:18Speaker 3: have decided it's all just a little bit too difficult
- 23:21Speaker 3: after the comments she made. No one forced her to
- 23:24Speaker 3: make those comments. She made those comments, and now people
- 23:27Speaker 3: are saying, well, maybe we don't need you speaking. I
- 23:30Speaker 3: actually it'll be easy to sink the boot into Grace Tame.
- 23:33Speaker 3: But I actually think this is really unfortunate because she
- 23:37Speaker 3: was made Australian of the Year because we wanted someone
- 23:41Speaker 3: to be able to speak about sexual abuse, and as
- 23:43Speaker 3: a victim survivor of sexual abuse, she had an important
- 23:47Speaker 3: story to tell. And I think it's a shame that
- 23:49Speaker 3: someone who could have made a great difference and done
- 23:52Speaker 3: a great deal of good now is not making any
- 23:55Speaker 3: contribution in that space because she couldn't stick to her
- 23:58Speaker 3: own Lane decided it wasn't enough to speak about that
- 24:02Speaker 3: which she knew about. She had to speak about things
- 24:04Speaker 3: that she clearly is quite ignorant of, and now has
- 24:07Speaker 3: forfeited the right to speak about anything.
- 24:09Speaker 4: No well got no sympathy for her. Couldn't have happened
- 24:11Speaker 4: to a better person. And this is what karma does.
- 24:13Speaker 4: I mean, what did she expect when she was out
- 24:14Speaker 4: there chanting globalizing into FATA because that comes with consequences.
- 24:19Speaker 4: Plus that and all the other activism she's done over
- 24:21Speaker 4: the years. Look, the funniest part about this is she's
- 24:24Speaker 4: actually canceled herself. And we get told time and time
- 24:27Speaker 4: again that the left are just so tolerant, the left
- 24:30Speaker 4: of the most loving people, and yet they are the
- 24:32Speaker 4: biggest hypocrites of them all. Grace Tame in point because
- 24:37Speaker 4: for example, you know, the left will say that you're
- 24:40Speaker 4: racist and they'll cancel you. The left will call you
- 24:42Speaker 4: a misogynist, that's it, call them out. The left will say, oh, no,
- 24:46Speaker 4: you're the one who's divisive. I've just lost my pen.
- 24:48Speaker 4: You're the one who's divisive. You're the one who's discriminatory again.
- 24:53Speaker 4: And the left are just as bad they are, if
- 24:56Speaker 4: not worse than them all. So no, I've got no
- 25:00Speaker 4: sympathy for Grace Tame. She deserved everything she got for
- 25:04Speaker 4: the Ben James. But it's true, No, I get very
- 25:06Speaker 4: passionate and dramatic about this because honestly, I think that
- 25:10Speaker 4: Grace Tame has conducted herself as an absolute disgrace and
- 25:14Speaker 4: it is such a shame that she was made Australian
- 25:17Speaker 4: of the Year. Yet my question is, what has she
- 25:20Speaker 4: done in those last few years other than become an
- 25:22Speaker 4: annoying activist who always puts herself on the wrong side
- 25:26Speaker 4: of history. Where was she when Jewish women were being raped?
- 25:29Speaker 4: Where was she? Where is she now when Iranian women
- 25:33Speaker 4: are finally celebrating that they don't have to cover their
- 25:35Speaker 4: heads and they're out in the streets. Where is Grace
- 25:38Speaker 4: tame right now, silent, always silent, So nope, she's the
- 25:41Speaker 4: biggest loser of them all.
- 25:43Speaker 5: And I think this is part of the problem with
- 25:45Speaker 5: platforming someone for what is a worthy cause, as you say, James,
- 25:51Speaker 5: but then kind of saying, okay, well now you're a
- 25:54Speaker 5: voice for Australia, ie Australian of the Year, and so
- 25:58Speaker 5: you kind of go, well, then net's all more than
- 26:00Speaker 5: just me advocating for sexual assault, and then other people
- 26:04Speaker 5: want to platform you for anything else you will possibly say,
- 26:07Speaker 5: and away you go, which is unfortunate.
- 26:10Speaker 1: It is unfortunate.
- 26:11Speaker 5: But in cases like this, I always come back to cancel.
- 26:15Speaker 5: Culture has been visited upon the right for many years,
- 26:20Speaker 5: and every time we say, well, surely I have the
- 26:23Speaker 5: right to say that, we're always told you have free speech,
- 26:26Speaker 5: but it doesn't come without consequences.
- 26:28Speaker 1: And so every now and again, I don't think.
- 26:30Speaker 5: It's a bad thing to see the same thing visited
- 26:33Speaker 5: upon the left so that they can get a taste
- 26:35Speaker 5: of what they've been doing to everyone else for so long.
- 26:39Speaker 5: Your words and your actions do come with consequences, and
- 26:42Speaker 5: if Corporate Australia no longer wants to pay you to
- 26:46Speaker 5: speak and views you as damaging to them and toxic
- 26:50Speaker 5: to their brand. That's simply the way things are going
- 26:52Speaker 5: to go. It's happened to the right for years. Now
- 26:55Speaker 5: it's happening to people on the left. What a surprise.
- 26:57Speaker 4: And as I said, karma, karma, that's what happened. Well, gee,
- 27:01Speaker 4: let's talk about CNN. They are having an absolute shocker
- 27:04Speaker 4: of a week now. You might remember last night we
- 27:06Speaker 4: spoke about the ISIS inspired terror attack that occurred in
- 27:10Speaker 4: New York City a couple of days ago, where two
- 27:12Speaker 4: teenagers threw bombs into a crowd and it happened near
- 27:16Speaker 4: the residence of New York Mayor Zoran ma'm dami. Well,
- 27:20Speaker 4: CNN anchor Abby Philip, she's one of their prominent hosts there.
- 27:24Speaker 4: She is a long term critic of Donald Trump. In fact,
- 27:27Speaker 4: I would say that she's also a long term chronic
- 27:30Speaker 4: and acute sufferer of Trump derangement syndrome. Well, that was
- 27:33Speaker 4: on full display last night when she said on her program,
- 27:38Speaker 4: she said that the ISIS inspired attack was actually against
- 27:43Speaker 4: ma'm dami, that he was the actual target of this attack,
- 27:47Speaker 4: when in actual fact it was at an anti Islam rally.
- 27:53Speaker 4: And as we said, this was an ISIS inspired attack
- 27:55Speaker 4: that was designed to create mass casualties, thankfully there were none.
- 28:00Speaker 4: Was designed to create mass casualties against ordinary Americans. Here's
- 28:05Speaker 4: what she said on the show.
- 28:08Speaker 8: Two Republicans say Muslims don't belong here after an attempted
- 28:11Speaker 8: terror attack against New York's Mayor Zoron Mumdani and the
- 28:16Speaker 8: House speaker Mike Johnson says nothing really to condemn those comments.
- 28:20Speaker 4: Another no, no, Abby, that was all wrong. That was
- 28:24Speaker 4: all wrong, was and it as we said, it was
- 28:26Speaker 4: not designed to target Zoraan ma'm Dami. Well, after mass
- 28:30Speaker 4: public backlash, she was forced to apologize. Now, she put
- 28:33Speaker 4: out this post on social media saying, I want to
- 28:35Speaker 4: correct something I said last night. The bombs thrown in
- 28:38Speaker 4: New York City over the weekend by ISIS inspired attackers
- 28:41Speaker 4: was thrown into a crowd of anti Muslim protesters and
- 28:44Speaker 4: not specifically targeted at Mayor ma'am Dami. That wording was
- 28:48Speaker 4: inaccurate and I didn't catch it ahead of time. I
- 28:50Speaker 4: apologized for the era and then also underneath that there
- 28:55Speaker 4: was a added context, which is what X does when
- 28:58Speaker 4: there needs to be more context. On the says the
- 29:00Speaker 4: use of the words specifically implies Ma'm dummy may have
- 29:03Speaker 4: been a target, when this is factually incorrect based on
- 29:06Speaker 4: every report and testimony from the two terrorists themselves. Bombs
- 29:09Speaker 4: were thrown at protesters and police in order to injure
- 29:12Speaker 4: murder as many civilians as possible. I mean, that is
- 29:16Speaker 4: a very very big distinction. But this comes just days
- 29:19Speaker 4: after that dreadful CNN post and the way in which
- 29:23Speaker 4: they actually described this terror attack. They said, two Pennsylvania
- 29:27Speaker 4: teenagers crossed onto the New York City on New York
- 29:30Speaker 4: City on Saturday morning for what could have been a
- 29:33Speaker 4: normal day, enjoying the city during abnormally warm weather. The
- 29:37Speaker 4: hex the weather got to do with it, and then
- 29:39Speaker 4: it went to save. But in less than an hour,
- 29:40Speaker 4: their lives would drastically change as the pair would be
- 29:43Speaker 4: arrested for throwing homemade bombs. Now, let me say this
- 29:46Speaker 4: to you. Abby would have known absolutely, There's no doubt
- 29:51Speaker 4: in my mind. She would have known what that script read, Okay,
- 29:54Speaker 4: because when you are a news reader, you do know
- 29:57Speaker 4: what comes up in your rundown. Now not offer you
- 30:00Speaker 4: may not be able to read it in advance, but
- 30:03Speaker 4: she would have known. She would have known the context
- 30:05Speaker 4: around this, and yet that was what she decided to
- 30:08Speaker 4: put to air. I mean, she could have had a
- 30:10Speaker 4: moment there where she went, actually, no, I'm going to
- 30:12Speaker 4: correct myself, but she chose not to do it. But
- 30:15Speaker 4: what this just proves once again is the hypocrisy of
- 30:18Speaker 4: the liberal media because this is the exact same organization
- 30:21Speaker 4: that hid Joe Biden's illness for many years while he
- 30:24Speaker 4: was mumbling, stumbling and fumbling. It is a mouthpiece for
- 30:27Speaker 4: the Democrats, and so anything that's got to do with
- 30:30Speaker 4: what the left perceivers, you know, those races, we can't
- 30:33Speaker 4: talk about that. Anything to do with radical Islam. They
- 30:36Speaker 4: don't want to touch. They don't like to touch that.
- 30:38Speaker 4: They just avoid all together. But she deserves to be
- 30:41Speaker 4: sacked over that in my view.
- 30:43Speaker 3: Well, even the apology was an absolute shocker. She says
- 30:47Speaker 3: that wording was inaccurate. The wording wasn't simply inaccurate. The
- 30:52Speaker 3: wording was the opposite of what happened. It wasn't just
- 30:55Speaker 3: a little inaccuracy here or there. That quote unquote I
- 30:58Speaker 3: didn't catch ahead of time.
- 31:01Speaker 2: CNN just lying.
- 31:03Speaker 3: They're just bald faced liars and tell their viewers the
- 31:07Speaker 3: exact opposite of the facts. I'm not sure why anyone
- 31:10Speaker 3: would watch it, and well, their ratings certainly reflect that
- 31:13Speaker 3: over the past few years.
- 31:15Speaker 5: Never let the truth get in the way of a
- 31:16Speaker 5: good story, right And.
- 31:18Speaker 2: What's that old expression? Is it true? Or did you
- 31:19Speaker 2: hear it on c Yeah?
- 31:21Speaker 4: Sure?
- 31:21Speaker 5: And she's not even a newsreader oither she she hosts
- 31:24Speaker 5: a panel program, so she would know the topics and
- 31:27Speaker 5: the script ahead of time.
- 31:29Speaker 1: I mean I read my scripts before.
- 31:30Speaker 5: I mean this show is unscripted, but on other programs
- 31:34Speaker 5: I read and mostly write my own scripts before I
- 31:36Speaker 5: go on here. Maybe it's seen and they have the
- 31:37Speaker 5: budget to get other people to write it for them,
- 31:39Speaker 5: but you should be reading it before you go on here.
- 31:42Speaker 5: So there's no way that she wasn't aware of what.
- 31:44Speaker 3: Or you would have a producer who would say to you,
- 31:46Speaker 3: hate that, actually this is correct.
- 31:48Speaker 1: Correct.
- 31:48Speaker 5: You know that there are many places in which this
- 31:51Speaker 5: has gone wrong, So you have to ask the question,
- 31:53Speaker 5: has it deliberately gone wrong?
- 31:55Speaker 1: Because they want.
- 31:56Speaker 5: To portray a certain view of what happened outside to
- 31:59Speaker 5: me his residence. I'll tell you one bloke who deserves
- 32:02Speaker 5: the YA for the day, though not Abby Phillips Gene Simmons.
- 32:06Speaker 5: Now he like you and I are sick of seeing
- 32:10Speaker 5: celebrities carry on all the time about politics.
- 32:14Speaker 1: Gene Simmons.
- 32:14Speaker 5: Of course, so one of the co founders of Kiss,
- 32:17Speaker 5: the Great Rocker, and he puts it as only a rocker.
- 32:20Speaker 9: Could basically, shut the fuck up, do your art and
- 32:25Speaker 9: shut up.
- 32:26Speaker 1: Nobody's interested in your opinions.
- 32:28Speaker 2: That includes me, who I've vote.
- 32:30Speaker 4: For, who I like, who the fuck you think you are.
- 32:33Speaker 7: People in America work hard for their living and they
- 32:36Speaker 7: don't want to be lectured too by people who live
- 32:39Speaker 7: in mansions and drive rolls.
- 32:40Speaker 5: Royces Hallulah, Gene Simmons, La, thank you so much. I
- 32:47Speaker 5: can think of a few people who might need to
- 32:50Speaker 5: take this advice. And we didn't have to troll extensively
- 32:53Speaker 5: to find these examples. These have only been in the
- 32:55Speaker 5: last few months.
- 32:58Speaker 9: No one is illegal and stolen, lamb and never obey
- 33:02Speaker 9: in advance, guys, Donald Trump, three Palestine sat transcars.
- 33:09Speaker 10: Many of us. What we're guilty of is an ego
- 33:12Speaker 10: centric worldview. We feel entitled to artificially inseminy to cow,
- 33:19Speaker 10: and when she gives birth, we steal her baby.
- 33:23Speaker 1: Give him the gene Simmons treatment.
- 33:25Speaker 4: I say, yeah, give him the Gene Simmons tongue life.
- 33:29Speaker 4: Do you know what this is? My response to this, Gene,
- 33:32Speaker 4: shout it, shout it, shout it out loud, Thank you
- 33:36Speaker 4: very much, saying exactly what we all feel.
- 33:39Speaker 3: Well done, Jene, Hey, aren't we missing something here? When
- 33:41Speaker 3: Gene Simmons says no one's interested in celebrity opinions, isn't
- 33:45Speaker 3: he a celebrity giving an opinion?
- 33:47Speaker 1: It is true, it is true.
- 33:48Speaker 5: But he's basically saying me and or my mates should
- 33:52Speaker 5: just stop talking about politics like.
- 33:53Speaker 3: He is right on this right or Ricky Gervea said
- 33:56Speaker 3: it very eloquently at it Awards Sarahmon only a couple
- 34:00Speaker 3: of years ago.
- 34:01Speaker 11: This is a reminder you're in no position to lecture
- 34:04Speaker 11: the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world.
- 34:07Speaker 11: Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thumburg.
- 34:11Speaker 11: So if you win, right, come up, accept your little award,
- 34:15Speaker 11: thank your agent and your god.
- 34:17Speaker 1: Gough ah.
- 34:19Speaker 3: You can't add anything to that, all right, Before we
- 34:22Speaker 3: go to a break, let's talk about what they're doing
- 34:24Speaker 3: in the UK with their banknotes. They've made the decision
- 34:27Speaker 3: to remove Sir Winston Churchill from their banknotes. They're going
- 34:31Speaker 3: to replace him, would you believe it or not? With
- 34:33Speaker 3: wildlife Now. They surveyed forty four thousand Brits asking them
- 34:38Speaker 3: what should they place on banknotes that would symbolize the
- 34:42Speaker 3: UK and that would not be divisive, and the overwhelming
- 34:45Speaker 3: majority of people voted for animals such as squirrels, and
- 34:49Speaker 3: so now something like a hedgehog or a squirrel will
- 34:52Speaker 3: replace Sir Winston Churchill. The Chief Cashier of the Bank
- 34:56Speaker 3: of England, Victoria Cleveland, told the media the kis driver
- 35:00Speaker 3: for introducing a new banknote series as always to increase
- 35:03Speaker 3: counterfeit resilience, but it also provides an opportunity to celebrate
- 35:07Speaker 3: different aspects of the UK. Nature is a great choice
- 35:10Speaker 3: from a banknote authentification perspective and means we can showcase
- 35:14Speaker 3: the UK's rich and varied wildlife on the next series
- 35:18Speaker 3: of banknotes. You know, when they put Winston Churchill on
- 35:22Speaker 3: the note back in twenty thirteen, many people speculated the
- 35:25Speaker 3: five pound note would become known as the Winston because
- 35:29Speaker 3: when you think what's great about the UK, well Winston Churchill.
- 35:32Speaker 3: But well, in twenty twenty six, he's out, well, those.
- 35:35Speaker 4: On a panel to actually create the new figure on
- 35:38Speaker 4: the banknotes, some of the actually wildlife television producers. So it's
- 35:42Speaker 4: either going to be a beaver, a fox, a badger,
- 35:44Speaker 4: a squirrel, an otter, a deal or a seal. Well
- 35:47Speaker 4: done to the UK for a raising its own history's
- 35:50Speaker 4: I mean, that's where we're right. But we've seen that.
- 35:52Speaker 4: Look look at our statues being knocked down. You know that,
- 35:54Speaker 4: Captain Cook. It's a progressive left trying to erase our
- 35:57Speaker 4: history and trying to erase our identity.
- 36:00Speaker 5: Are they going to put David Attenburg on there as well,
- 36:01Speaker 5: just amongst all the wildline.
- 36:03Speaker 2: Well, that would be right. I'd support that. We're going
- 36:05Speaker 2: to go to a break.
- 36:06Speaker 3: When we come back, we look at what's making headlines tomorrow,
- 36:08Speaker 3: including more transgender madness in Victorian prisons.
- 36:12Speaker 2: That's next. Okay, let's take a.
- 36:21Speaker 3: Look at what's making headlines tomorrow. Caleb has got the
- 36:23Speaker 3: front page of tomorrow's Daily Telegraph.
- 36:25Speaker 5: Indeed, where it says oil take that thanks for a
- 36:28Speaker 5: great headline. Government pockets millions from fuel price spike and
- 36:32Speaker 5: refuses to cut tax under the pump. Treasurer Jim Chalmers
- 36:35Speaker 5: is attacking petrol giants for price garging, but ruled out
- 36:38Speaker 5: cutting excise on fuel as government's pocket nextra fifteen million
- 36:42Speaker 5: dollars a week in GST alone from motorists. It comes
- 36:45Speaker 5: as bowser paying spikes, with examples of regional service stations
- 36:49Speaker 5: shutting all together refusing to pass on exorbitant prices. Prices
- 36:53Speaker 5: have jumped fifty cents a liter from a dollar sixty
- 36:55Speaker 5: nine to two dollars nineteen on average across Australia since
- 36:59Speaker 5: the start of the Era war, meaning an extra five
- 37:02Speaker 5: cents a liter in GST is raked into government coffers.
- 37:06Speaker 1: And you would think this would be an.
- 37:09Speaker 5: Easy win for the government to turn around, because of
- 37:12Speaker 5: course the Morrison government did it.
- 37:14Speaker 1: They have the fuel exercise for a while.
- 37:17Speaker 5: Easy win to turn around and say, yep, we're just
- 37:19Speaker 5: going to wipe some money.
- 37:21Speaker 1: Off the price of fuel.
- 37:22Speaker 5: But because they can't do it, because they know they're
- 37:25Speaker 5: in a precarious financial position at the moment and they're
- 37:29Speaker 5: trying to scrape together every dollar they can before they
- 37:32Speaker 5: go into the fine the federal budget this year, they're
- 37:36Speaker 5: not willing to pass on any.
- 37:37Speaker 3: Taxis this is such a great story. Every time from
- 37:40Speaker 3: now on that you hear Jim Chalmers or Anthony Albanese
- 37:43Speaker 3: or anyone else from the Labor Ministry talk about the
- 37:46Speaker 3: fact that they are really concerned about the cost of
- 37:48Speaker 3: living crisis and helping Australians garbage.
- 37:51Speaker 2: They're making money out of the fuel hike.
- 37:53Speaker 4: Of course they are. Well, remember when Anthony Aberaneesi said,
- 37:55Speaker 4: my word is my bond? Actually, what are your favorites saying.
- 37:58Speaker 5: At the end of the Bond Report five PM Fridays
- 38:01Speaker 5: every week, make.
- 38:02Speaker 1: Sure David little Proud on.
- 38:05Speaker 2: The broa quickly.
- 38:06Speaker 4: I'm so glad we managed to get the done point.
- 38:09Speaker 4: The point actually I was making before you you inflated
- 38:12Speaker 4: yourself there are gond was it basically say, I watch
- 38:15Speaker 4: the show, you just can't trust labor, right.
- 38:18Speaker 5: And then WA's opinionated today PM, by the.
- 38:20Speaker 4: Way, show that's very yeah, Aph, it's a great shape.
- 38:23Speaker 4: But you know, it just goes to show that.
- 38:24Speaker 3: Your Sunday Nights at eight is anyone going to mention
- 38:26Speaker 3: that at first Angle on Sunday this.
- 38:29Speaker 4: Has absolutely spiraled out of control. And here I am
- 38:32Speaker 4: trying to make a fair incod point about labor and
- 38:35Speaker 4: all I'm going to say is you can't trust what
- 38:36Speaker 4: they're saying.
- 38:37Speaker 2: That's very opinion.
- 38:39Speaker 5: But you can trust what we say on our programs,
- 38:42Speaker 5: of course.
- 38:43Speaker 1: And another story.
- 38:44Speaker 5: It's just a little bar down the bottom here on
- 38:46Speaker 5: the front of the Telly. First shots fired means to
- 38:50Speaker 5: cleares migration is too high as leaders make their pitch
- 38:53Speaker 5: for twenty twenty seven election. Hang on, wow, I labor
- 38:58Speaker 5: premiere is migration is too high. I wonder how the
- 39:03Speaker 5: federal government is going to deal with this one.
- 39:05Speaker 4: Yeah, And it's interesting because we know that Men's and
- 39:07Speaker 4: Anthony Albanezi are at odds on a lot of issues.
- 39:10Speaker 4: I remember over the summer of Bondi they were at odds,
- 39:14Speaker 4: and now what they're going to be at odds over
- 39:15Speaker 4: migration policy. All I can say is good on Chris
- 39:18Speaker 4: Min's but the proof will be in the pudding, because seriously,
- 39:21Speaker 4: we've got to lower migration. We cannot get every day
- 39:23Speaker 4: ordinary Aussies into homes. So let's see what he comes
- 39:26Speaker 4: up with. I'm very curious the plan, but I'm not
- 39:28Speaker 4: holding my breath at this point.
- 39:30Speaker 3: All right, let's go to the front page of tomorrow's
- 39:32Speaker 3: Herald Sun. Exclusive taxpayers face another costly slug with biological
- 39:38Speaker 3: male inmate set to sue state over treatment in women's prison.
- 39:43Speaker 3: New trans jailor Fail reads the headline. All right, here's
- 39:46Speaker 3: what it says. Victorian taxpayers face another huge slug with
- 39:48Speaker 3: a transgender prisoner preparing to sue the Allen government over
- 39:53Speaker 3: their JITs confusing reading stories about transgender people. Is there's
- 39:58Speaker 3: such a mixture of pronouns. A transgender prisoner preparing to
- 40:02Speaker 3: sue the Allen government over there should be his treatment
- 40:06Speaker 3: inside a women's jail. The government is bracing for the
- 40:09Speaker 3: case being prepared by a pedophile prisoner who is a
- 40:13Speaker 3: biological male. So in this case, it's the transgender person, yes,
- 40:19Speaker 3: suing the government. Yes, it's a man in a women's
- 40:22Speaker 3: prison upset about the treatment he's received in the women's prison.
- 40:25Speaker 4: Correct. I mean the irony in this, especially when we
- 40:27Speaker 4: know that there have been instances only a couple of
- 40:30Speaker 4: weeks ago it was revealed if you remember of a
- 40:33Speaker 4: woman who was sexually assaulted by a trans prisoner in
- 40:36Speaker 4: a women's jail. We have seen that there was a
- 40:40Speaker 4: case in Victoria where a man raped his own daughter
- 40:43Speaker 4: and then decided to identify as a woman and wants
- 40:46Speaker 4: to be moved into a women's facility. And now for
- 40:48Speaker 4: some reason, we've got a biological man suing the state
- 40:53Speaker 4: for the treatment that he's received prison.
- 40:55Speaker 3: After all of that which you just outlined, why on
- 40:58Speaker 3: earth in Victoria do they still have biological men in
- 41:02Speaker 3: women's prisons exactly?
- 41:03Speaker 5: And if you go and read the new guidelines that
- 41:06Speaker 5: they put out at the start of the year after
- 41:09Speaker 5: that case that you referenced Dneka, which was meant to
- 41:12Speaker 5: clean all of this up.
- 41:13Speaker 1: You read the whole lot. I've read the whole lot.
- 41:15Speaker 5: And there's about two or three lines in there referring
- 41:19Speaker 5: to the rights of other prisoners when it comes to
- 41:22Speaker 5: transgender prisoners. Most of it talks about the fact that
- 41:25Speaker 5: transgender prisoners are vulnerable and they could get into trouble
- 41:28Speaker 5: in prison, et cetera, et cetera. It shows no regard
- 41:32Speaker 5: for the care of other prisoners.
- 41:33Speaker 4: And sent to Alan Steel refuses to put a blanket
- 41:35Speaker 4: ban on it despite all these recommendations.
- 41:38Speaker 3: And you can bet she won't be out facing the
- 41:40Speaker 3: media tomorrow when this headline hits the news stands. She'll
- 41:42Speaker 3: push out one of her junior ministers. Oh yeah, we
- 41:45Speaker 3: say it's not my portfolio.
- 41:48Speaker 4: You're right out the childcare minister last time exactly.
- 41:50Speaker 2: That's her standard response. All right.
- 41:53Speaker 3: The other story that's interesting is LIBS man alp love.
- 41:57Speaker 5: Hey Cory Bernardi warned us about this, didn't he did?
- 42:00Speaker 1: In six marriages passed.
- 42:02Speaker 3: Indeed, the Liberal Party's handpicked candidate for the Nippean by
- 42:07Speaker 3: election was openly cheering for Labor at the last state election.
- 42:11Speaker 3: Embarrassing text messages have emerged showing Anthony Marsh, he's the
- 42:14Speaker 3: Liberal chosen to replace Sam Groth, was privately urging support
- 42:19Speaker 3: for Labour candidate Paul Mercurio on the night of the
- 42:22Speaker 3: twenty twenty two election. That is not a headline that
- 42:26Speaker 3: Jess Wilson would want to see on the front page
- 42:28Speaker 3: of the papers. They want to make this all about
- 42:30Speaker 3: the horrible performance of just Center Allen. Instead, we've got
- 42:34Speaker 3: more internal rigmarole from the Libs.
- 42:39Speaker 5: His text message was I hope Paul gets it with
- 42:43Speaker 5: three exclamation marks.
- 42:44Speaker 4: Oh find embarrassing.
- 42:46Speaker 2: He wasn't shy, was he?
- 42:48Speaker 1: No? No, no?
- 42:48Speaker 5: And he also said in another message that he'd consider
- 42:51Speaker 5: a career in politics if he quote was bored, politically motivated,
- 42:56Speaker 5: not a counselor and otherwise unengaged. They found the best
- 43:01Speaker 5: they could possibly find. I must say, though, I mean,
- 43:04Speaker 5: you do reserve the right to support a local candidate
- 43:07Speaker 5: on the basis of what you think the candidate might
- 43:09Speaker 5: do as opposed to the party. But there's not been
- 43:13Speaker 5: a lot of time between him saying that and then
- 43:16Speaker 5: trying to run for the Libs himself. Maybe he's had
- 43:18Speaker 5: a sort of Malcolm Turnbull moment, you know, where he
- 43:21Speaker 5: went from wanting to join the Labor Party to joining
- 43:24Speaker 5: the Liberal Party or something.
- 43:25Speaker 1: I'm not really sure.
- 43:26Speaker 4: No, I don't know, but regardless, that's an embarrassing text message,
- 43:29Speaker 4: isn't it. Now We just spoke there about Chris Min's
- 43:31Speaker 4: and I'm about to applaud another Labor premier. Have a
- 43:35Speaker 4: look at this on the front page of the Australian
- 43:38Speaker 4: one Nation warning as Maley defends patriotism, Labor must embrace
- 43:44Speaker 4: patriotism and respect people's love of the national flag. South
- 43:47Speaker 4: Australian Premier Peter Malanowskas says, warning that expressions of national
- 43:51Speaker 4: pride should not be equated with extremism. Halleluljah. Mister Malanowskus,
- 43:56Speaker 4: the latest and most senior Labour figure to openly champion
- 43:58Speaker 4: national pride. Midway Nation. Surge said Labor had as much
- 44:02Speaker 4: to fear from the right wing party as the Liberals,
- 44:05Speaker 4: and urged politicians not to sneer at voters' grievances over
- 44:08Speaker 4: housing and immigration. I mean, congratulations, who would have thought?
- 44:15Speaker 4: What does this tell me? One they're worried about the
- 44:18Speaker 4: rise of one nation. That is so obvious. Labor are
- 44:22Speaker 4: so concerned, and now suddenly they're backtracking on everything that
- 44:26Speaker 4: they've ever said about national pride and pride in the
- 44:29Speaker 4: Australian flag and immigration and multiculturalism. But he's right, isn't
- 44:34Speaker 4: he He is spot on.
- 44:36Speaker 3: What annoys me is they trash the joint and then
- 44:38Speaker 3: they know, oh, maybe that wasn't such a good idea.
- 44:41Speaker 3: And this has got nothing to do with patriotism and
- 44:43Speaker 3: everything to do with what you said, Danika Polls. Yep,
- 44:47Speaker 3: they don't care about the country. They care about themselves.
- 44:50Speaker 5: To be fair, Melanowskis has voiced his support for Australia
- 44:53Speaker 5: Day previously, so this is not the first time he
- 44:56Speaker 5: said it. But I think there are people in the
- 44:58Speaker 5: Labor Party realizing that one nation ain't just a threat
- 45:01Speaker 5: to the coalition and quickly before we go on the
- 45:03Speaker 5: front of the Gold Coast Bulletin, club vows to reflect
- 45:07Speaker 5: football Queens stand has penalized every competitive team at a
- 45:10Speaker 5: prominent junior soccer club on the Gold Coast.
- 45:13Speaker 1: Over poor crowd behavior.
- 45:15Speaker 5: Palm Beach Soccer Club juniors from under thirteen through to
- 45:17Speaker 5: under eighteen's have been stung with a penalty, with the
- 45:20Speaker 5: sanction coming off the back of poor crowd behavior at
- 45:23Speaker 5: the twenty twenty five under eighteen Jail Grand Final.
- 45:27Speaker 1: What is it with parents who go to their.
- 45:31Speaker 5: Children's sporting matches and can't behave themselves in the stands.
- 45:36Speaker 5: We're not playing for sheep stations here people. The kids
- 45:39Speaker 5: are having fun. Why do they insist on carrying on
- 45:42Speaker 5: like a bunch of hooligans.
- 45:43Speaker 3: Yep, it's an interesting story Gold Coast Bulletin. You can
- 45:46Speaker 3: read all about it tomorrow. After the break. I want
- 45:48Speaker 3: to show you an incredible pilot and a very brave
- 45:52Speaker 3: police officer.
- 45:52Speaker 2: That's next.
- 45:57Speaker 3: Well, every now and then I get the train into
- 45:59Speaker 3: the new studios, Denikro, I'd love to get on the
- 46:02Speaker 3: act that you've got there.
- 46:04Speaker 4: Ye have a look at this. This is the golden
- 46:06Speaker 4: ticket opportunity that Brits were well, I guess accidentally given
- 46:11Speaker 4: we'll bring this up here. Golden tickets blunder gives passengers
- 46:15Speaker 4: free train ride, so this was a generator as such
- 46:19Speaker 4: that gave free train travel across the country. Was shut
- 46:22Speaker 4: down because of a botched software upgrade. The blundersaw digital
- 46:25Speaker 4: seat reservations generated by the Great Western Railway website being
- 46:29Speaker 4: accepted as automatic barriers at stations as if they were
- 46:32Speaker 4: actual tickets, so passengers could scan the reservations which are
- 46:36Speaker 4: emailed to pass through any ticket at any gate through
- 46:39Speaker 4: the country. So bring up this graphic here, have a
- 46:42Speaker 4: look what the telegraph was able to do. This illustrates
- 46:44Speaker 4: just how well whimsical it was. Eight hundred and four
- 46:48Speaker 4: kilometers the telegraph was able to travel for free, for free.
- 46:52Speaker 4: Can you believe it?
- 46:53Speaker 5: Now?
- 46:54Speaker 4: That is a blunder and a half. They would be
- 46:56Speaker 4: expensive to go from different places around the UK.
- 46:59Speaker 2: Government should operate for free. It's fantastic.
- 47:03Speaker 1: I mean, you know all they could go to Coeens.
- 47:04Speaker 2: It's only fifty cents up there, you know that's true.
- 47:07Speaker 5: I'm honest, not that bad. I think this is brilliant.
- 47:09Speaker 5: There's actually an argument for free public transport everywhere. People
- 47:12Speaker 5: might actually use it then because they don't actually recover
- 47:15Speaker 5: that much in fear is to be perfectly honest, make
- 47:18Speaker 5: it all free, get people off the road so I
- 47:20Speaker 5: can drive my car without being in the traffic.
- 47:22Speaker 3: With the amount of money the Victorian government spent on
- 47:24Speaker 3: their failed my key card system.
- 47:26Speaker 2: They could for everybody.
- 47:28Speaker 3: All right, I want to show you the most amazing rescue,
- 47:31Speaker 3: not just of two motorists, but the dog that was
- 47:35Speaker 3: also in the vehicle. This is up in Catherine flash
- 47:37Speaker 3: flooding of a creek, and having rescued the couple who
- 47:41Speaker 3: were in the vehicle, they decided not to leave the
- 47:44Speaker 3: dog behind. So the chopper pilot John Armstrong Junior, who
- 47:48Speaker 3: deserves a shout out, that's amazing flying to have its
- 47:51Speaker 3: hovering right there. And then the police officer Ben Parfitt,
- 47:55Speaker 3: who's on the top of the vehicle, manages to coax
- 47:58Speaker 3: the Alsatian into the chop and the dog is rescued
- 48:02Speaker 3: from the flood. Pretty great, great flying, great police officers.
- 48:08Speaker 4: Hey, they are man's best friend after all, they are good.
- 48:11Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, I've got two cats. I think
- 48:13Speaker 1: they're pretty good friends.
- 48:14Speaker 2: Would you rescue the ca the cats.
- 48:17Speaker 1: Well, you can't just leave them behind.
- 48:19Speaker 4: They are only friends?
- 48:20Speaker 5: Are They're not my only friend? I mean you're not
- 48:22Speaker 5: one of them to thee.
- 48:24Speaker 1: Never mind?
- 48:25Speaker 5: Now, look, they're currently searching for a new James Bond,
- 48:29Speaker 5: right that you come up with someone new for the franchise.
- 48:32Speaker 5: Kim Jong un has put his audition tape in. It
- 48:36Speaker 5: would seem here he is. This is from official state
- 48:38Speaker 5: media in North Korea. He's been a munitions factory and
- 48:44Speaker 5: he's posed out for the photos his best James Bond.
- 48:48Speaker 4: I mean, look with the guy and cam, how is.
- 48:50Speaker 5: He not in the running for the job. But look,
- 48:53Speaker 5: I have to say, though, why do they need to
- 48:55Speaker 5: even look at Kim Jong un? You've got Caleb Bond
- 48:59Speaker 5: right here? Ah, what more could you ask for? I'm
- 49:04Speaker 5: up for the job.
- 49:04Speaker 1: What do you reckon?
- 49:06Speaker 2: Your word?
- 49:07Speaker 4: Is your bond? After all? All? I mean you'd be perfect.
- 49:09Speaker 1: Him Jong one or me? Which one?
- 49:11Speaker 2: Is anyone going to the cinema to see that?
- 49:12Speaker 5: Of course they are mate. I've always wanted to have
- 49:16Speaker 5: the girls.
- 49:16Speaker 1: And the a.
- 49:17Speaker 2: I don't think that's getting any girls.
- 49:19Speaker 4: The opportunity has arisen, that's.
- 49:21Speaker 2: All from us.
- 49:22Speaker 3: Stick around Coming up in just a moment is The Read,
- 49:24Speaker 3: a pendenty show hosted by Caroline Marcus good Night
