Speaker 1: Late General, welcome, late page.
0:07
Speaker 2: Well, thanks for joining us.
0:08
Speaker 3: I'm James Macpherson with Liz Storer and Caleb Bond coming.
0:12
Speaker 2: Up in the program.
0:12
Speaker 3: We've shown you plenty of dumb Joe Biden, but tonight
0:15
Speaker 3: we'll show you not only dumb Joe Biden, but just
0:18
Speaker 3: downright disturbing Joe Biden. That's coming up a little later. Plus,
0:22
Speaker 3: when we look at the papers, the government have promised
0:24
Speaker 3: to reduce overseas student numbers. The Australian newspaper tomorrow detailing
0:29
Speaker 3: just how many overseas students are here this year, up
0:32
Speaker 3: seventeen percent on last year. As well, the Career Mail's
0:36
Speaker 3: got a front page story detailing allegations of gender selection
0:40
Speaker 3: in fertility clinics. We'll get to all of that a
0:43
Speaker 3: little later, but I'm sure by now you know about
0:46
Speaker 3: the Singapore Airlines plane that dropped suddenly after hitting turbulence
0:50
Speaker 3: on a flight out of London. Tragically, one passenger died
0:53
Speaker 3: and dozens were injured after being flung out of their seats.
0:57
Speaker 3: But even before a pilot could say fasten your seat belts,
1:01
Speaker 3: climate catastrophists latched onto the incident, saying, see this is
1:05
Speaker 3: why we all need to eat insects because turbulence, you see,
1:09
Speaker 3: is caused by climate change. Check out some of these
1:13
Speaker 3: headlines from around the world. NBC News went with this
1:17
Speaker 3: climate change and turbulence experts way in after death on
1:22
Speaker 3: Singapore Airlines flight?
1:23
Speaker 2: Or what about this from the Guardian?
1:25
Speaker 3: What causes air turbulence and is the climate crisis making
1:29
Speaker 3: it worse? And of course our friends at the at
1:32
Speaker 3: the ABC went complete chicken little climate change is fueling
1:36
Speaker 3: turbulence on some of our most.
1:38
Speaker 2: Common flight paths.
1:40
Speaker 3: Now journalists quoted a study from the University of Reading
1:44
Speaker 3: in the UK that warns that a warming climate will
1:48
Speaker 3: affect the jet stream, which will cause more turbulence. But hilariously,
1:52
Speaker 3: they also acknowledged that the Singapore Airlines flight was thought
1:56
Speaker 3: to have been affected by turbulence not from a jet stream,
2:00
Speaker 3: but from a nearby storm. But don't worry, the ABC
2:03
Speaker 3: have got that covered as well, they wrote, and I quote.
2:07
Speaker 3: As well as increasingly intense jet streams, climate scientists have
2:11
Speaker 3: warned that storms are worsening as well. So if global
2:15
Speaker 3: warming doesn't get you, climate change will. The ABC predicted
2:20
Speaker 3: that turbulence over Australia will increase by fifty percent around
2:24
Speaker 3: twenty fifty or twenty eighty, whichever comes first. So the
2:29
Speaker 3: big problem for flyers is how is this going to
2:33
Speaker 3: affect us? Well, they interviewed Paul Williams from Reading University,
2:37
Speaker 3: and he assured travelers that planes are completely safe in turbulence.
2:41
Speaker 3: They're not going to fall apart, They'll be unaffected and
2:44
Speaker 3: hardly anyone ever gets injured from turbulence. But denominously he
2:48
Speaker 3: did say this, brace yourselves and thy quote the seat
2:51
Speaker 3: belt sign will be switched on more often.
2:56
Speaker 2: Why anymore?
2:57
Speaker 4: There was so much.
2:58
Speaker 5: Victim blaming around and there's the amount of people who
3:01
Speaker 5: were like, well, if they just had their seat belts on,
3:05
Speaker 5: none of this would have happened, Like there isn't always
3:09
Speaker 5: over the intercom every time there's the slightest bit of turbulence, that.
3:13
Speaker 6: Voice being like, ladies and gentlemen, please make sure you've.
3:17
Speaker 4: I was just like, this is victim blaming.
3:19
Speaker 5: These people have been traumatized by what sounds like not
3:23
Speaker 5: your garden variety type turbulence. Sadly, a life was lost,
3:27
Speaker 5: so we know it was pretty violent.
3:30
Speaker 4: And all they can say was like.
3:31
Speaker 5: Well, if people have had their seatbelts on, if only
3:33
Speaker 5: they have their seatbelts on. But this has got to
3:36
Speaker 5: be up there with one of the most silliest things
3:39
Speaker 5: that we are now taught to blame on climate change.
3:43
Speaker 4: It's like a heart disease.
3:44
Speaker 5: We've all seen those studies heart disease through the roof. Now,
3:47
Speaker 5: because climate change, your pets health as well, be very
3:51
Speaker 5: alarmed about that they are going to be affected by
3:55
Speaker 5: climate change, any kind of extreme weather event, because we
3:58
Speaker 5: did not have those prior. No, no, this is unprecedented,
4:02
Speaker 5: any extreme weather event, climate change, and on and on
4:06
Speaker 5: it goes. Meanwhile, we still haven't had one person able
4:11
Speaker 5: to prove that human emissions of carbon dioxide are driving
4:17
Speaker 5: climate change, is driving global warming. Literally nobody on planet
4:21
Speaker 5: Earth has been able to prove that.
4:23
Speaker 7: Yet I nearly had a heart attack myself when you
4:26
Speaker 7: use the word wasn't unprecedent?
4:29
Speaker 1: I forgot what the bloody word was.
4:30
Speaker 7: You've killed my joke, Well, I've killed my joke out anyway.
4:34
Speaker 7: Was there some word that was used during COVID And no, no, no,
4:36
Speaker 7: I haven't heard that word for ages. But your point
4:39
Speaker 7: about eating bugs right is not a stupid one because
4:43
Speaker 7: we know that airline food is bad enough as it
4:46
Speaker 7: is right. And look, sometimes you think twice about getting
4:49
Speaker 7: on a plane when you know what you're going to
4:51
Speaker 7: get served. If you know you're going to be served
4:54
Speaker 7: bugs on a plane, you'll be even less likely to
4:56
Speaker 7: get on a plane, which means you're far less likely
4:59
Speaker 7: to suffer any damage in turbulence caused by climate change.
5:03
Speaker 7: There is the argument for serving bugs on planes, though
5:06
Speaker 7: I suppose the alternative is that you might have been
5:08
Speaker 7: in the toilet baffing it up because it was that terrible,
5:10
Speaker 7: and then you would have hit the roof when the
5:12
Speaker 7: turbulence came along.
5:13
Speaker 1: But this, you know, they're talking.
5:14
Speaker 7: About this, like you know, climate change is going to
5:17
Speaker 7: cause all of a sudden, these major turbulence events like
5:20
Speaker 7: what we saw last night.
5:22
Speaker 1: Every second day.
5:24
Speaker 7: The last known or what they believe to be the
5:27
Speaker 7: last known case of someone being killed on a flight
5:30
Speaker 7: from turbulence apart from yesterday, was in nineteen ninety seven.
5:36
Speaker 1: That is how rare it is.
5:38
Speaker 7: And all of a sudden, you know, oh, look there
5:41
Speaker 7: was turbulence in the air, which would none of us
5:43
Speaker 7: have ever experienced before. And now we've got to say, yes,
5:46
Speaker 7: climate change, we've got to do something about it because
5:49
Speaker 7: it's the first time in what twenty six years that
5:53
Speaker 7: someone has died in the air as a result or
5:56
Speaker 7: connected to turbulence. At least anyway, they will stop it.
6:00
Speaker 7: Nothing to come up with alarmism and.
6:03
Speaker 1: Anything to attach it to.
6:04
Speaker 7: I mean, you know, even walking down the shops, they'll
6:07
Speaker 7: say soon because I don't know your your shoes have
6:10
Speaker 7: got rubber in them or something, even that's contributing to
6:13
Speaker 7: climate changing.
6:15
Speaker 5: They haven't blamed inflation on climate you know, just giving
6:19
Speaker 5: it a go.
6:19
Speaker 4: Somehow I thought up.
6:20
Speaker 6: An angle where they're like, well, look, you know.
6:23
Speaker 4: What would the climate change crisis?
6:25
Speaker 3: The US Transportation Safety Board says that since two thousand
6:29
Speaker 3: and nine, so what's at fifteen, In the last fifteen years,
6:32
Speaker 3: there's only been one hundred and eighty five serious injuries
6:34
Speaker 3: from turbulence, and out of those one hundred and eighty five,
6:37
Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty nine were flight crew, which means
6:40
Speaker 3: they were typically walking down AI.
6:41
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, sin.
6:43
Speaker 3: The funniest thing about the reporting on this to me
6:45
Speaker 3: was seeing end did this dramatic story. You know, climate
6:49
Speaker 3: change is going to make turbulence worse, It's going to
6:51
Speaker 3: make flying dangerous, and I'm reading this article, and then
6:53
Speaker 3: at the bottom it says this article has been reproduced
6:56
Speaker 3: from twenty twenty two.
6:58
Speaker 2: So they just pull.
6:59
Speaker 3: Out this article any time a flight was affected by turbulence,
7:03
Speaker 3: they just rehash the.
7:04
Speaker 7: Same urgentitating Well, at least planes we know go reasonably fast.
7:09
Speaker 7: And I don't know about you, but quite often I
7:11
Speaker 7: find myself on the road and Liz can a test
7:15
Speaker 7: because part of her root home every night is the
7:17
Speaker 7: same as mine that I am a bit of a
7:18
Speaker 7: lead foot. I take off, I take off from the
7:21
Speaker 7: lights a bit faster than you. I think you were
7:23
Speaker 7: to test though I've never had a speeding find you've
7:26
Speaker 7: just got to know where to do it. But a
7:28
Speaker 7: lot of other people on the road frustrate the living
7:31
Speaker 7: hell out of me because they can't even stick to
7:34
Speaker 7: the speed limit. They go well below it everywhere they
7:37
Speaker 7: go for some reason. Sydney drivers I've found to be
7:40
Speaker 7: worse than pretty much anywhere else in the country.
7:42
Speaker 1: But one place that I had real trouble with was.
7:45
Speaker 7: When I lived in Melbourne, going through the Burnley Tunnel.
7:49
Speaker 7: Now the Burnley Tunnel, if you've ever been through it,
7:51
Speaker 7: or if you haven't been through it, I'll.
7:52
Speaker 1: Explain it for you. It's toll road, but you go
7:55
Speaker 1: in under the river.
7:57
Speaker 7: And it starts on a decline and then become quite
8:00
Speaker 7: a steep incline. So what happens is people drive down it.
8:03
Speaker 7: Then they get to the incline and they don't put
8:05
Speaker 7: their foot down, so they go in at eighty it's
8:07
Speaker 7: an eighty kilometer road and they come out the other
8:10
Speaker 7: side at sixty. So Transurban, who runs the road, came
8:13
Speaker 7: up with the ingenious idea of putting lights on the
8:17
Speaker 7: side of the road and you can see this in
8:20
Speaker 7: the tunnel there, and the idea is those lights move
8:23
Speaker 7: at the pace at which you should be moving.
8:27
Speaker 1: Now, we talked about.
8:28
Speaker 7: This when they originally did it and said, oh, you know,
8:30
Speaker 7: is this really going to work. It turns out it
8:34
Speaker 7: has actually worked. Transurban has crunched the numbers and during
8:39
Speaker 7: peak hour people are traveling seventeen percent faster than they
8:44
Speaker 7: were before thanks to this light. Now, apparently it's some
8:47
Speaker 7: magical psychological trick where we are pre programmed to sort
8:51
Speaker 7: of go into a fight or flight mode when we
8:53
Speaker 7: see things in our peripheral vision, and we end up
8:56
Speaker 7: basically chasing this light in order to it.
9:00
Speaker 1: Away from it.
9:01
Speaker 7: I can't believe that it took some boffins in an
9:04
Speaker 7: office somewhere to actually come up with something that will
9:08
Speaker 7: make people drive faster stick to the speed limit.
9:13
Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
9:14
Speaker 7: And by the way, this is the stat I love
9:16
Speaker 7: the most. We always get told you you've got to
9:19
Speaker 7: reduce the speed limit in order to reduce crashes.
9:22
Speaker 2: Right.
9:23
Speaker 7: They found since they introduced this light, and the average
9:26
Speaker 7: speed people have been traveling in the tunnel has gone up.
9:30
Speaker 7: Crashes resulting in someone being put in an ambulance have
9:33
Speaker 7: gone down by four percent. You're telling me that people
9:37
Speaker 7: are driving faster and they crash less unbelievable.
9:42
Speaker 3: The other great stat from this is that traffic has
9:44
Speaker 3: increased by two point two percent, and yet cars are
9:46
Speaker 3: getting through that tunnel fIF fast seconds faster. The other
9:50
Speaker 3: thing I liked about this is there it's been such
9:52
Speaker 3: a success.
9:53
Speaker 2: They're going to experiment with different.
9:54
Speaker 3: Colors and different shapes of lights, but I think they
9:57
Speaker 3: should go further. Why not play in the tunnel like
10:01
Speaker 3: the Jaws theme that would make you drive faster? Dark
10:04
Speaker 3: come or the sound of gunfire, or what about this?
10:07
Speaker 3: What if they projected an image of the safety commissioner
10:10
Speaker 3: into your rib and then you'll just the.
10:13
Speaker 4: Tunnel yarning through.
10:16
Speaker 5: So these pacer lights cost thirteen million dollars.
10:20
Speaker 1: I reckon they're worth every sink.
10:21
Speaker 7: If they actually make people go faster, they are dead
10:24
Speaker 7: set worth every damn scint So.
10:26
Speaker 5: You think Sydney should get them in all out tunnel, I'd.
10:29
Speaker 7: Put them everywhere if they work. If they work, and
10:32
Speaker 7: it's been proven that they work quite well, I'd put
10:35
Speaker 7: them everywhere. There's no argument against it. I mean, you know,
10:37
Speaker 7: sometimes you think, oh Jesus, Nana in front of me,
10:40
Speaker 7: and often it turns out it's not Nana in front
10:42
Speaker 7: of you, some woman doing her lipstick.
10:44
Speaker 4: Oh I always a woman, some bloke munch.
10:47
Speaker 7: In a way on a hamburger or something. But you know,
10:51
Speaker 7: if it works in Melbourne, it should be rolled out
10:53
Speaker 7: across the country. Or you find people for going below
10:56
Speaker 7: the speed limit, there should actually we should be pulled
10:58
Speaker 7: over by the police and put in the cells for
11:01
Speaker 7: a night. If you can't stick to the speed limit,
11:04
Speaker 7: if you can't drive the speed limit, get off the
11:06
Speaker 7: damn rod.
11:07
Speaker 2: They need to put these lights.
11:08
Speaker 3: You know, when you're merging onto a freeway and the
11:10
Speaker 3: freeways a one hundred cases.
11:11
Speaker 5: There's always dreaming the dream now Na, we're talking merging.
11:16
Speaker 5: That's large and complex for anywhere in Australia. I've yet
11:19
Speaker 5: to find a state that is good at merging. But
11:22
Speaker 5: stuff like this makes me wonder how many other psychological
11:25
Speaker 5: tricks they're playing on us. I mean, we know about
11:27
Speaker 5: the ones in casinos and stuff, so where they make
11:30
Speaker 5: sure that nobody can see the light of day so
11:32
Speaker 5: they lose track of time, and all these little tips
11:35
Speaker 5: and tricks of keeping you at your machine and these things.
11:38
Speaker 5: And now this one we're told is tapping into our
11:41
Speaker 5: primal instincts of like trying to get away from something
11:45
Speaker 5: or keep up with something when it's in.
11:47
Speaker 4: Our peripheral vision.
11:48
Speaker 3: Shopping centers, we're playing classical music to get rid of
11:50
Speaker 3: young people who were loitering around the shops.
11:53
Speaker 2: Would telling my.
11:54
Speaker 7: Dad if they played more classical music at shops, amaze,
11:57
Speaker 7: I would have lived there.
11:58
Speaker 4: If you can pull up.
11:59
Speaker 5: A chest field, putting your feet up and start pouring
12:02
Speaker 5: a whiskey.
12:03
Speaker 3: I was telling my dad about this story, and he
12:04
Speaker 3: was telling me years ago. At Austin Hospital in Melbourne,
12:07
Speaker 3: there's a flight of stairs and people would congregate as
12:09
Speaker 3: are walking up and down, they'd see someone, they'd stop
12:11
Speaker 3: and they talk, and it would cause congestion. So the
12:14
Speaker 3: hospital painted the walls yellow and it immediately fixed the
12:18
Speaker 3: entire problem. No one would stop and talk. So these
12:21
Speaker 3: psychological tricks do work.
12:22
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, well there you go, speaking of psychological tricks,
12:26
Speaker 5: someone make this make sense.
12:28
Speaker 4: Let's go to the States now, where.
12:30
Speaker 5: The FBI has been busted yet again. So we're talking
12:35
Speaker 5: about this ray that they did on marri Lago because.
12:38
Speaker 4: Trump had kinds of five documents.
12:39
Speaker 5: So in August of twenty twenty two, they kicked down
12:43
Speaker 5: his door. Last week or the week before, we were
12:46
Speaker 5: talking about this photo of the documents that they'd seized.
12:50
Speaker 6: This photo was sensationally leaked to.
12:53
Speaker 5: The press, and just weeks later we found out this
12:57
Speaker 5: is a totally doctored photo.
12:59
Speaker 4: They just got kind of created this photo op photo
13:02
Speaker 4: for themselves.
13:03
Speaker 5: Attach these front pages that says classified to make it look.
13:08
Speaker 4: Like, oh yeah, look at the stash.
13:10
Speaker 5: Just as well we rated this guy's place, he's got
13:12
Speaker 5: all this classified stuff. Well, today we learn that the FBI,
13:17
Speaker 5: when they did this raid, were authorized to use deadly force. Now,
13:23
Speaker 5: of course, deadly force means that I don't know. Potentially,
13:28
Speaker 5: if you need to kill someone to do what you're
13:31
Speaker 5: going to do on the premises of Mary Lago, you
13:35
Speaker 5: have the long arm of the state protecting you and saying, yes,
13:39
Speaker 5: that is necessary, if it is necessary to get these documents.
13:44
Speaker 4: So this circus is just raging on. The FBI initially said.
13:49
Speaker 5: On oh, no, these documents, the photos that we took,
13:52
Speaker 5: that was them in the condition that we found them.
13:55
Speaker 6: That's come out as a lie.
13:57
Speaker 5: And now we find out they were telling their guys, hey,
13:59
Speaker 5: if you have to use deadly force, just do what
14:02
Speaker 5: you gotta do. I guess they were hoping that Trump
14:04
Speaker 5: might come out screaming, brandishing some sort of weapons, so
14:08
Speaker 5: then they could use said deadly force. But at the
14:12
Speaker 5: times like these, I always want to remind absolutely everyone
14:17
Speaker 5: that the FBI never rated Clinton. They knew that she
14:21
Speaker 5: was using a private email server to send and receive
14:26
Speaker 5: hundreds of emails, so they did a bit of an
14:29
Speaker 5: investigation into it. And here's James Comey, FBI director, seven
14:34
Speaker 5: years ago, explaining what the FBI had found on Hillary
14:38
Speaker 5: Clinton's email server and what they intended to do about it.
14:44
Speaker 8: From the group of thirty thousand emails returned to the
14:47
Speaker 8: State Department in twenty fourteen. One hundred and ten emails
14:53
Speaker 8: in fifty two email chains have been determined by the
14:56
Speaker 8: owning agency to contain classified information at the time they
15:01
Speaker 8: were sent. We are expressing to justice our view that
15:04
Speaker 8: no charges are appropriate in this case.
15:07
Speaker 4: No charges, just free pass. Jogon, lady, She'll be right.
15:11
Speaker 5: Classified documents all over the shop, then on a private
15:15
Speaker 5: email server that no one was ever supposed to find
15:18
Speaker 5: out about. But hey, you get a free pass, as.
15:22
Speaker 4: Did Biden earlier this year.
15:24
Speaker 6: Remember this headline He was.
15:26
Speaker 4: Found with classified documents at his Delaware home.
15:29
Speaker 6: They were in his garage, they were in his offices.
15:32
Speaker 5: They were in the basement den of said home. And
15:36
Speaker 5: they said, no, we're not going to press charges because
15:39
Speaker 5: a jury will just think he's an old man with
15:43
Speaker 5: a poor memory. So classified documents at Biden's home, classified documents,
15:49
Speaker 5: hundreds of them, sent and received by a private email server.
15:53
Speaker 5: But her name's Hillary Clinton. She gets a pre pass.
15:57
Speaker 5: We found some at Mara Lago, did a downdoor raid
16:01
Speaker 5: to find these ones, and well we're still talking about
16:04
Speaker 5: it years later and pressing charges.
16:07
Speaker 3: Joke can admission that officers were authorized to use deadly force.
16:11
Speaker 3: It's an astonishing admission. It's almost like they were hoping
16:14
Speaker 3: Trump would resist because that would just give them the opportunity.
16:18
Speaker 3: Which makes me wonder did Biden really get eighty one
16:21
Speaker 3: million votes, because if he's that popular, how on earth
16:25
Speaker 3: is Trump such a concern or a worry for them?
16:28
Speaker 3: Doesn't all the effort they're putting into Trump prove the
16:30
Speaker 3: fact that Trump is not stupid, Trump is not an outlier.
16:35
Speaker 3: Trump is a massive threat.
16:37
Speaker 4: Trump would have won last time.
16:40
Speaker 7: It's obvious why they keep pursuing him, because you know,
16:44
Speaker 7: they want to try and get him by any means possible,
16:47
Speaker 7: and if that means bringing in the judiciary using the
16:50
Speaker 7: legal system, they will take any avenue open to them.
16:53
Speaker 7: The only trouble with that is, though, that even if
16:56
Speaker 7: he gets banged up for some trumped up offense re elected,
17:01
Speaker 7: he can then go and pardon himself and let himself
17:03
Speaker 7: out of jail, and he can still run the show
17:06
Speaker 7: from jail if the time comes to it.
17:09
Speaker 1: But I mean, you know, what were they going to do?
17:10
Speaker 7: Rock up and go excuse me, mister Trump, and give
17:12
Speaker 7: us the documents or pop a cap in you like, seriously,
17:16
Speaker 7: they were walking into the place to go through the
17:18
Speaker 7: rooms to look for documents.
17:20
Speaker 1: What did they expect was going to happen?
17:23
Speaker 7: A man who wants to be elected president again is
17:27
Speaker 7: not going to physically impede them or send his goons
17:31
Speaker 7: down to physically impede the FBI, because it would get
17:35
Speaker 7: him in serious trouble and he would potentially face an
17:39
Speaker 7: actual court case that may actually be damaging, unlike all
17:44
Speaker 7: the nonsense that they've been trying to foist upon him,
17:46
Speaker 7: as if he was ever going to do anything that
17:48
Speaker 7: would require lethal force. And not only that, they were
17:52
Speaker 7: instructed to hide their law enforcement equipment as though they
17:56
Speaker 7: were walking in there looking like they weren't armed, and
18:00
Speaker 7: they didn't have handcuffs, and they were told to bring
18:03
Speaker 7: medium and large sized bolt cutters. Well, what if you
18:07
Speaker 7: need smort bolt cutters? I don't know, But to hide
18:09
Speaker 7: all of this stuff so no one knew it was there.
18:11
Speaker 1: It's the FBI rocket up for a raid.
18:13
Speaker 4: I don't think that's a.
18:14
Speaker 3: Point hiding your gear as well as bolt cups and handcuffs,
18:17
Speaker 3: they were told to take quote unquotem o. So the
18:21
Speaker 3: comparison is crazy they go to Trump's place to seize documents,
18:25
Speaker 3: take MMO. They go to Biden's place to help him
18:28
Speaker 3: find the documents because.
18:29
Speaker 4: He's a war memory. You know, it's fine, and there.
18:33
Speaker 5: In the garage, show should we have a look there
18:35
Speaker 5: where where none of them are supposed to be at
18:37
Speaker 5: his home, And at least in Trump's case, they just
18:40
Speaker 5: found it in like a storage area in his home.
18:43
Speaker 5: So they raided into all his bedrooms, you know, their
18:45
Speaker 5: teenage sons, Millenia's room as well the kitchen, thinking what
18:50
Speaker 5: have these people hidden all over the joint? And they
18:53
Speaker 5: just found it in like the storage room, whereas in
18:57
Speaker 5: in Biden's case, they did find some in the garage,
19:01
Speaker 5: some in the basement.
19:02
Speaker 6: Den, some in the several officers in his home.
19:06
Speaker 4: He'd really spread him out.
19:07
Speaker 1: I think they're in the garage next to the mustang.
19:11
Speaker 7: It was so funny when they said we couldn't possibly
19:14
Speaker 7: prosecute because the jury wouldn't convict because they'd say he
19:17
Speaker 7: was a dotttery old man, which was the greatest admission
19:19
Speaker 7: of all time that he is actually a dotttery old man.
19:21
Speaker 7: He was okay to be the president, of course, and
19:24
Speaker 7: that's why they're working over time not only to denigrate
19:27
Speaker 7: Trump in every way possible, but to try and protect
19:30
Speaker 7: Biden in every way possible, especially of course his mates
19:34
Speaker 7: in the media. Now, you know, you may be aware
19:37
Speaker 7: of a show in the US called The View. I
19:39
Speaker 7: don't recommend you watch it, but we'll bring you a
19:41
Speaker 7: short clip anyway. Joy Bihar, who he herself is eighty
19:45
Speaker 7: one years old, is a host on the View, and
19:48
Speaker 7: they were talking to Bill Maher recently, who you might
19:51
Speaker 7: know as a comedian and of latter times a liberal
19:56
Speaker 7: TV host.
19:57
Speaker 1: In the US.
19:58
Speaker 7: But he has been moving, you might not say, more
20:02
Speaker 7: to the right. I think perhaps the left has moved
20:04
Speaker 7: away from him. He's an old school Lefty that he
20:08
Speaker 7: got into to an argument with Joy Behar about whether
20:11
Speaker 7: or not you ought to be protecting Joe Biden. Listen
20:15
Speaker 7: to what Joy says, and it exposes exactly what the
20:18
Speaker 7: lefty media in the US is trying to do, which
20:22
Speaker 7: is cover everything up so they don't send anyone to truck.
20:28
Speaker 7: But I'm nervous about saying anything against Biden because I feel,
20:33
Speaker 7: you know, not that.
20:33
Speaker 1: I have so much power and you have some than
20:36
Speaker 1: I do, obviously.
20:37
Speaker 4: But are you afraid that you might, you know, influence
20:41
Speaker 4: of the people who are on the fence.
20:42
Speaker 2: I think you lose all credibility I do.
20:44
Speaker 5: My bond with my audience has always been I don't
20:46
Speaker 5: pull a punch. Now, my bond with my orience is
20:49
Speaker 5: You're not going to like everything I say.
20:50
Speaker 8: But you know, I'm saying what I really think is true.
20:54
Speaker 7: So what she's saying is, we know that Joe Biden
20:57
Speaker 7: is a dottery old man. He may as well be
21:00
Speaker 7: a character in the Muppets with Jim Henson's hand up
21:03
Speaker 7: him telling him what to do. But you know, we
21:06
Speaker 7: just won't criticize him in case people realize exactly how
21:10
Speaker 7: bad it is.
21:10
Speaker 1: We want the guy anyway, I mean, how desperate can
21:14
Speaker 1: you be?
21:15
Speaker 3: The funniest part about that is that she felt completely
21:17
Speaker 3: free to make that invention.
21:19
Speaker 2: On live television, anything like, isn't it obvious? You would understand,
21:22
Speaker 2: wouldn't you? We want Biden to win.
21:24
Speaker 5: And literally admitting that that is why she won't even
21:28
Speaker 5: acknowledge that which is patently obvious and which the stats
21:33
Speaker 5: very clearly bear out.
21:34
Speaker 6: In America, the vast majority of.
21:36
Speaker 5: Americans now know that he is not up to a
21:39
Speaker 5: second term due to his lack of mental acuity. And
21:43
Speaker 5: yet here's someone who hundreds of thousands would watch on
21:46
Speaker 5: a weekly basis admitting. But the reason why I still
21:50
Speaker 5: can't say anything bad about him or talk about something
21:54
Speaker 5: that's as plain as the nose on the guy's face
21:57
Speaker 5: is because, well, still better than Trump, right, No, you've
22:01
Speaker 5: got someone who's barely sentient, barely like this guy's holding
22:06
Speaker 5: on for dear life, any shred of.
22:08
Speaker 4: Sense that comes out of him.
22:09
Speaker 5: We're like, well, the pharmaceutical stimulants kicking in today, and
22:16
Speaker 5: someone who actually has his wits about him, whether you
22:18
Speaker 5: agree with.
22:19
Speaker 4: What he has to say or not.
22:21
Speaker 5: And certainly even the likes of that woman must miss.
22:26
Speaker 5: Peace in the Middle East, peace in the world. Actually,
22:29
Speaker 5: while Trump was in the White House and far more
22:32
Speaker 5: prosperous times on every single scalable metric in the United
22:37
Speaker 5: States of America, we.
22:38
Speaker 2: Should point out.
22:39
Speaker 3: Just going back on the classified documents thing, I think
22:41
Speaker 3: the reason why Joe Biden didn't get in trouble for
22:44
Speaker 3: having classified documents in his garage was he convinced the
22:47
Speaker 3: FBI that they were safe because his son Hunter was
22:49
Speaker 3: looking after.
22:52
Speaker 2: They were perfectly fine.
22:53
Speaker 3: Well, if you think American politics is a soap opera, well,
22:56
Speaker 3: it's got nothing on the Royal family. In fact, I
22:58
Speaker 3: think that's why people don't watch so operas on television anymore,
23:01
Speaker 3: because he really can't go past Prince Harry and Meghan
23:04
Speaker 3: for drama. The latest episode involves Prince Harry's trip back
23:09
Speaker 3: to the UK for the Invictus Games, and he made
23:12
Speaker 3: a big deal of the fact that his father didn't
23:14
Speaker 3: have time to see him, so he had a typical
23:17
Speaker 3: sook as Harry does. But the truth that now has
23:20
Speaker 3: come out that the King offered for his son to
23:23
Speaker 3: stay at Saint James Palace, which is right across from
23:27
Speaker 3: where Charles himself stays, so they would have had a
23:29
Speaker 3: chance to catch up, but Prince Harry knocked it back
23:33
Speaker 3: because he said there wasn't enough security for him and
23:36
Speaker 3: people would see him coming and going, so he would
23:38
Speaker 3: prefer to stay in a hotel where he could have
23:41
Speaker 3: his privacy. Of course, the hotel meant he was far
23:44
Speaker 3: away from his father, who was busy. They didn't get
23:46
Speaker 3: a chance to catch up, but Harry made it all
23:49
Speaker 3: about the fact that Dad didn't want to see him,
23:52
Speaker 3: when in fact Dad had offered him stay at the
23:54
Speaker 3: royal residence, we can catch up. This is just another
23:57
Speaker 3: example of Harry burning every bridge.
24:01
Speaker 7: But it doesn't even make sense because if he was
24:04
Speaker 7: in a royal residence, sure they would have known he
24:06
Speaker 7: was there. But it's got security on every single gate.
24:10
Speaker 7: Now again, they know when he's coming and going, but
24:12
Speaker 7: no one can possibly get anywhere near him, Whereas when
24:16
Speaker 7: he's in a hotel, unless he's hired out the entire hotel,
24:20
Speaker 7: it is possible that someone encounters him, someone sees him
24:24
Speaker 7: coming in and out.
24:25
Speaker 1: I don't buy this argument that it's I'll have my anonymity.
24:29
Speaker 7: When I stay other people stay in hotels.
24:33
Speaker 1: You dunce. But it's just the typical Harry.
24:36
Speaker 7: Meghan playbook, which is victim, victim, victim, victim, victim.
24:40
Speaker 1: I have not done anything wrong.
24:43
Speaker 7: And of course he is so upset by the fact
24:46
Speaker 7: that he doesn't have an official residence in the UK anymore,
24:50
Speaker 7: and he doesn't have the official security detail that comes
24:54
Speaker 7: with being a named member of the royal family. So
24:57
Speaker 7: him saying I'm going to go and stay in a
24:59
Speaker 7: hotel is as much a snub to his father saying, look, oh,
25:03
Speaker 7: thanks for your offer, buddy.
25:05
Speaker 1: But I don't need it.
25:06
Speaker 7: I'll look after myself, as is the fact he wouldn't
25:09
Speaker 7: meet him at all, and then tries to blame his
25:12
Speaker 7: father for not meeting him, even though it has been
25:15
Speaker 7: said that the king had actually tried to make room
25:18
Speaker 7: in his schedule specifically to see his son. I mean,
25:22
Speaker 7: what a wastrel son this guy is.
25:25
Speaker 3: Apparently Harry was quite confident he would not be recognized
25:28
Speaker 3: in the hotel provided he wasn't sniveling, and as long
25:31
Speaker 3: as he wasn't sniveling, no one would recognize him, So
25:33
Speaker 3: that was his plan.
25:34
Speaker 2: I think this.
25:35
Speaker 4: I'll literally have nothing to add. I can't stand talking.
25:38
Speaker 5: I just think everything about their lives ie soap drama
25:42
Speaker 5: incredibly uninteresting, and yet people find it really interesting.
25:47
Speaker 4: So sorry, if you're one of them. I don't mean
25:49
Speaker 4: to insult you.
25:50
Speaker 5: Let's move on to us matters of Australian importance. Now,
25:54
Speaker 5: not saying how monarchy isn't but hey, there's a bearing
25:57
Speaker 5: on this story. So former olympian was she medalist?
26:02
Speaker 1: Yes, Olympic chair. Wasn't she Olympic chair?
26:05
Speaker 4: Yeah?
26:05
Speaker 5: Okay, before my time, but Olympic medalist Nova Paris and
26:10
Speaker 5: former Labor senator of course, has parted ways being the
26:14
Speaker 5: code chair of the Republican Movement. She used to share
26:19
Speaker 5: this with His name is Craig Foster, but now no
26:24
Speaker 5: more because she doesn't agree with moves Foster has been
26:27
Speaker 5: making in favor of Gaza. He said some pretty inflammatory
26:33
Speaker 5: things here. He was talking to Danika di Giorgio on
26:37
Speaker 5: May seventeenth about his stance.
26:42
Speaker 9: When it comes to human rights. Every single country, including US,
26:45
Speaker 9: has human rights abuses. So what sport has to ask
26:48
Speaker 9: is what is the threshold below which a country has
26:53
Speaker 9: to be banned? And so in my view, at the
26:55
Speaker 9: very least, and there's no objective. You know, sport is
26:58
Speaker 9: all over the place because it's very political, right, just
27:00
Speaker 9: makes it own decisions politic. So the question for all
27:04
Speaker 9: of us is what is the basic prepas at which
27:07
Speaker 9: you say, okay, now sport must ban that, And in
27:10
Speaker 9: my view it is the two most egregious crimes against humanity,
27:14
Speaker 9: which is genocide and is a part time.
27:19
Speaker 5: So he's saying sport is inherently political, something that I'm
27:23
Speaker 5: sure most of us disagree with, and which sport would
27:26
Speaker 5: just keep politics out of it.
27:28
Speaker 4: He's talking about.
27:28
Speaker 5: fIF of course, and the fact that no, of course
27:31
Speaker 5: they should get involved.
27:33
Speaker 4: So here's Novi Paris's response. Our positions.
27:38
Speaker 10: We need to hold the utmost truth, you know, if
27:41
Speaker 10: we are to united this country, to have gone to
27:45
Speaker 10: a referendum to for us to become a republican. And
27:48
Speaker 10: you know, I was quite disappointed with his with his commentary,
27:52
Speaker 10: and you know that his reference to maslaua of innocent Palestinians.
27:56
Speaker 10: You know, we should be upholding truth, and we should
27:59
Speaker 10: be upholding objective dialogue rather than smear tactics in inaccurate
28:05
Speaker 10: language around genocide and apartheid.
28:07
Speaker 2: I love the Republican movement.
28:09
Speaker 10: I would always support them, and I'll continue to support them,
28:11
Speaker 10: but I just had to make draw a line in
28:13
Speaker 10: the sand and remove myself from you know, Craig also
28:17
Speaker 10: being applauded by NASA machine who's congratulating Craig along.
28:23
Speaker 4: The way and the other.
28:25
Speaker 5: In my humble opinion, this is so immature, like you're
28:30
Speaker 5: heading up a republican movement that has nothing to do
28:34
Speaker 5: with what Craig has come out and said, nothing to
28:37
Speaker 5: do with that issue. There's no relation there whatsoever. In
28:41
Speaker 5: my mind, this is just like me spitting the dummy
28:43
Speaker 5: and quitting my job because I disagree with you violently
28:49
Speaker 5: on an issue that I hold in great importance about
28:52
Speaker 5: something that say, you're an I kleb really disagree on,
28:56
Speaker 5: but has nothing to do with the role that we
28:59
Speaker 5: share or the cause that we're backing in terms of
29:02
Speaker 5: the Republican movement.
29:04
Speaker 7: But if you felt that my values compromised your values,
29:08
Speaker 7: then you might make the decision that it is damaging
29:11
Speaker 7: to you in order to be on air with me.
29:13
Speaker 7: And that's clearly the decision Nova has made is that
29:16
Speaker 7: she cannot sit on a board with Craig Foster because
29:20
Speaker 7: his values on the issue of the war in Israel
29:23
Speaker 7: and Gaza, which she has been very vocal about of
29:25
Speaker 7: recent times, do not sit with hers, and that compromises
29:30
Speaker 7: her value structure.
29:31
Speaker 5: I don't compromise her value structure. Her value structure is.
29:35
Speaker 4: Still completely intact. This is cancel culture. This is deplatforming someone.
29:40
Speaker 4: This is saying.
29:43
Speaker 5: It is saying I will not or cannot because I
29:47
Speaker 5: lack the basic maturity to associate with someone who I
29:51
Speaker 5: passionately disagree with on any given topic.
29:54
Speaker 3: I think that's unfair because there's more to it than
29:56
Speaker 3: there's a conflict of values. Craig Foster's comments have politicized
30:01
Speaker 3: the Australian Republican movement in the sense I know it's political,
30:04
Speaker 3: but he's now got.
30:05
Speaker 6: None of that.
30:06
Speaker 3: Nobody should have stayed in his lane. He's the co
30:09
Speaker 3: chair of the Republican movement. He should have stayed in
30:12
Speaker 3: his lane and kept well away from what is a
30:15
Speaker 3: very divisive issue. Which brings me to the second thing
30:17
Speaker 3: that I think no Viperis's right to be upset about
30:20
Speaker 3: the Republicans right to be upset.
30:22
Speaker 4: I'm to literally quit.
30:24
Speaker 3: A pose because he is meant to be uniting the country.
30:27
Speaker 3: He's now dividing the country.
30:28
Speaker 6: And third, he's not meant to be uniting the country.
30:32
Speaker 5: He's heading up a Republican movement which I'm.
30:34
Speaker 3: Supposed to be the country around let's have an Australian
30:38
Speaker 3: as the head of state.
30:39
Speaker 2: And third he's aligned himself.
30:41
Speaker 6: He already have at Australian as ahead of state.
30:42
Speaker 2: But okay, do you know what I mean?
30:44
Speaker 3: And he's aligning himself as the co chair of the
30:47
Speaker 3: movement with anti Western forces. He's getting praised by pro
30:51
Speaker 3: Palestinian groups. But just to add something else to this
30:54
Speaker 3: whole argument, just before we came on air. The Sydney
30:57
Speaker 3: Morning Herald has reported Craig Foster has now or down
31:00
Speaker 3: from the Republican Movement, three months before his position was
31:04
Speaker 3: to be renewed.
31:05
Speaker 2: The reason given was that he's too busy for the role.
31:09
Speaker 3: But I rather wonder whether he has now realized his
31:12
Speaker 3: possession on the song tenable because it's become so divisive,
31:16
Speaker 3: which I think is what Noviperis was trying to point out.
31:20
Speaker 6: But I still just consider that really immature.
31:23
Speaker 5: You don't quit a post that you've taken up in
31:27
Speaker 5: order to support a cause that you passionately.
31:30
Speaker 2: Believe, compromise the organization.
31:33
Speaker 5: Not necessarily. I'm sure there's several people who would have
31:37
Speaker 5: backed We've got people in our government.
31:40
Speaker 4: Who agree with every word that he's said.
31:42
Speaker 5: We've got thousands of people in this country, unfortunately, who
31:46
Speaker 5: also share his views.
31:49
Speaker 4: So is it.
31:50
Speaker 5: Divisive, yes, But it's just as divisive to take either
31:54
Speaker 5: side in this fight nowadays. All I'm saying is it's
31:58
Speaker 5: completely unrelated. So it is like me fitting the dummy
32:03
Speaker 5: because I don't like Caleb's views on something, and therefore
32:07
Speaker 5: I'm refusing to be a part of an organization that
32:11
Speaker 5: he and I head up together, which has absolutely nothing
32:15
Speaker 5: to do right with the views that he has aired.
32:17
Speaker 2: Let's take it one step further.
32:19
Speaker 3: Consider fake Foster's response to Novperis standing down. He said,
32:24
Speaker 3: for reasons that are her own, she has decided that
32:26
Speaker 3: Australians should not be talking about the devastating human rights
32:29
Speaker 3: impacts of the conflict in Gaza. That's a little passive,
32:33
Speaker 3: aggressive and a massive misrepresentation of her position.
32:37
Speaker 2: She hasn't said we shouldn't talk about it.
32:39
Speaker 3: She's just said, Israel not committing genocide or apartheid as
32:43
Speaker 3: you have claimed. And then he says, be kind to her,
32:46
Speaker 3: we can all change our views and evolve in our understanding.
32:49
Speaker 3: If that's his response, it makes you just you just
32:53
Speaker 3: wonder what else has been going on behind the sea.
32:56
Speaker 7: The relations just chosen not to associate with him anymore,
32:59
Speaker 7: which is well within her rights. And given as you
33:02
Speaker 7: said that he has now decided to step down as
33:04
Speaker 7: the head of the R or the co chair of
33:06
Speaker 7: the RM, you wonder whether he was tapped on the
33:09
Speaker 7: shoulder by others as well, Because of course, what you
33:11
Speaker 7: say outside of your that organization or any other organization,
33:16
Speaker 7: does have a bearing on your position.
33:18
Speaker 1: There I mean, you know, I am here as an
33:20
Speaker 1: employee of sky News.
33:21
Speaker 7: Now, if I go somewhere else, on another media outlet,
33:24
Speaker 7: or on X or somewhere else, and I say something
33:27
Speaker 7: that is in in injury and sky News doesn't like it,
33:30
Speaker 7: they're within their rights to sack me because what I
33:33
Speaker 7: have said in another sphere does reflect on the other
33:36
Speaker 7: organization I work for. So what no viperis was saying
33:40
Speaker 7: was it has reflected on the arm of which I
33:43
Speaker 7: am a co chair and I can't be a party
33:45
Speaker 7: to that.
33:45
Speaker 5: Why won't she say that she wasn't saying it reflects
33:48
Speaker 5: on the arm She is saying. I do not want
33:53
Speaker 5: to be working with this guy because of things he
33:56
Speaker 5: said that I disagree with. And I'm sorry, sure, but
33:59
Speaker 5: that's under mentally immature. I can work with anyone that
34:03
Speaker 5: I fundamentally disagree with on any topic you name it,
34:07
Speaker 5: if I'm doing so to back a cause that I
34:10
Speaker 5: believe in, and at least on that we're on a
34:13
Speaker 5: unity ticket. I mean Senator Hanson Young and Pauline Hanson
34:19
Speaker 5: have co signed.
34:20
Speaker 4: Certain bills they have they don't agree.
34:23
Speaker 5: With anything, and I'm sure they don't like each other
34:26
Speaker 5: very personally.
34:27
Speaker 4: Much at all all, but on the issues that they
34:31
Speaker 4: can agree on, they work together.
34:34
Speaker 5: That's what you do, That's what mature human beings do
34:37
Speaker 5: in a work setting.
34:39
Speaker 7: I do have to put you up on one small
34:40
Speaker 7: matter of fact. Though we do not have an Australian.
34:43
Speaker 1: Head of state.
34:44
Speaker 7: The King is the head of state, his representative. The
34:46
Speaker 7: Governor General is not actually the head of state. They
34:50
Speaker 7: are the representative of the head of state. But as
34:52
Speaker 7: far as I'm concerned, that is exactly the way it
34:54
Speaker 7: should stay. And while we're on topics of madness going
34:58
Speaker 7: on in the world, can you believe the Department of
35:00
Speaker 7: Agriculture the workers over there are apparently doing so badly
35:06
Speaker 7: that they need to take breaks to go and play lego. Yes,
35:10
Speaker 7: people were given a tour of the Department of Agriculture
35:14
Speaker 7: building in Canberra recently and were surprised to see big
35:18
Speaker 7: jigsaw puzzles and lego sets strewn all over a room
35:23
Speaker 7: which apparently is a place for them to go when
35:26
Speaker 7: they are quote feeling stressed or need time out. Now,
35:30
Speaker 7: it must be so difficult to be a public servant
35:34
Speaker 7: these days. I thought on the lego theme that working
35:37
Speaker 7: in the Department of agriculture would be something a bit
35:40
Speaker 7: more like this.
35:42
Speaker 10: Everything is.
35:45
Speaker 5: Everything is going everything.
35:55
Speaker 7: I mean, come on, you know this is like because
36:00
Speaker 7: you see the vision of people working at Google, and
36:02
Speaker 7: you know they hang around in these little weird pods
36:04
Speaker 7: and they get all free stuff all day. I mean,
36:06
Speaker 7: this is like if you bought Google off some dodgy
36:09
Speaker 7: online website, isn't it.
36:10
Speaker 1: I'll come and work in the public service and you'll
36:13
Speaker 1: get Lego.
36:14
Speaker 3: It shows you the massive disconnect between Canberra and people
36:17
Speaker 3: who are actually doing real work. Our farmers are battling
36:20
Speaker 3: drought and floods, trying to work out how they're going
36:22
Speaker 3: to survive with the live sheep export ban. They're trying
36:25
Speaker 3: to fend off power companies wanting to repossess property for
36:28
Speaker 3: renewable projects. Meanwhile the Agricultural Department they're playing with Plato
36:32
Speaker 3: and finger painting and Lego.
36:34
Speaker 2: But I would tell you this.
36:35
Speaker 3: Oxford Economics just yesterday they went through a thousand cities
36:40
Speaker 3: and they ranked Canberra the second highest quality of life
36:43
Speaker 3: in the world.
36:44
Speaker 2: And now we know why because at work you get
36:46
Speaker 2: to play with Lego and do stuff like that.
36:49
Speaker 4: Can you imagine grow men, Like, let's go to the
36:52
Speaker 4: Lego room. Let's have a break. I'm feeling a bit stressed.
36:55
Speaker 4: Let's go play with some kids toys.
36:57
Speaker 5: But just before we go to an ad break, do
37:00
Speaker 5: you have to correct Caleb Bob's correction of me?
37:03
Speaker 4: Because if you go to the role.
37:05
Speaker 6: Of the Governor General on the Governor General of the Commonwealth.
37:09
Speaker 5: Of Australia's on website, it does say the Governor General
37:13
Speaker 5: of Australia is his majesty the King's representative. In practice,
37:17
Speaker 5: they are Australia's head of STA and have a range
37:22
Speaker 5: of constitutional and ceremonial duties.
37:26
Speaker 4: Google it.
37:27
Speaker 5: They are referred to Australia's Head of stay prad nausea.
37:32
Speaker 1: Because the head of state is the King and the
37:34
Speaker 1: King gives the powers to the Governor inory.
37:37
Speaker 4: You hit it, stay correct, humble, I have not been
37:42
Speaker 4: the king.
37:43
Speaker 2: Right. Here's what we're going to do.
37:44
Speaker 3: While everyone at home goes and gets a cup of coffee,
37:46
Speaker 3: we're going to take a break. Lease two will argue
37:48
Speaker 3: it out. We'll come back with a result after the
37:50
Speaker 3: commercial break back in a second with the papers welcome back.
37:57
Speaker 3: Debate is still raging here over who is the head
38:00
Speaker 3: of Australia. But we're reliably informed by public servants in Canberra.
38:03
Speaker 3: It's a lego figure. You got the front page of
38:07
Speaker 3: Tomorrow's Australia and.
38:08
Speaker 1: He couldn't do a worse job, could he. Let's go
38:10
Speaker 1: to the Australian, shall we?
38:12
Speaker 7: One hundred thousand Chinese enrollments fuel go eight international student
38:18
Speaker 7: boom guwaight of course been a group of eight. Overseas
38:21
Speaker 7: Enrollments at Australia's universities have surged above pre COVID numbers
38:25
Speaker 7: and are up seventeen percent from last year, fueled by
38:28
Speaker 7: one hundred thousand Chinese students who are almost exclusively becoming.
38:32
Speaker 1: The domain of the Group of eight.
38:34
Speaker 7: Now, of course, the government has promised to crack down
38:38
Speaker 7: on overseas students.
38:39
Speaker 1: We're going to have fewer of them.
38:41
Speaker 7: Of course, the university sector doesn't like that very much
38:43
Speaker 7: because they very much enjoy the.
38:45
Speaker 1: Money that comes in.
38:47
Speaker 7: It's all good and well to have our universities pumping
38:50
Speaker 7: out all these Chinese students who come and pay full
38:52
Speaker 7: tote odds, and that's why they want them, because they
38:56
Speaker 7: get the money up front. But the number one goal
38:59
Speaker 7: of our uni universities ought to be to train Australians
39:03
Speaker 7: to fill Australian jobs, and we end up in this
39:07
Speaker 7: constant cycle of, oh, we have a skills shortage, We've
39:10
Speaker 7: got to import all these people from overseas to fill
39:13
Speaker 7: these skills. We have people in this country, we just
39:17
Speaker 7: don't train them properly. Instead we import all the people
39:19
Speaker 7: to train them and then we send them back to China.
39:21
Speaker 3: And there's something wrong with the business model of our universities.
39:24
Speaker 3: When at the University of Sydney forty seven percent of
39:27
Speaker 3: students are foreigners, the University of Melbourne it's forty two percent,
39:31
Speaker 3: the University of Queensland's thirty eight percent, and they rely
39:35
Speaker 3: on these students to pay the bills. Well, if you
39:37
Speaker 3: need that many people from overseas to make your institution work,
39:42
Speaker 3: I would suggest your business models broken.
39:44
Speaker 5: Oh I was at you said the year before last
39:47
Speaker 5: you used to be able to place.
39:48
Speaker 1: For the white person like it.
39:50
Speaker 4: Was just like, wait, damn, I still in Australia.
39:53
Speaker 5: But this is, as you've just highlighted an issue across
39:56
Speaker 5: the board, especially in the best university. It is because
40:00
Speaker 5: of course, they don't come from overseas to go to
40:04
Speaker 5: the not so good ones. They want the best, which
40:07
Speaker 5: means our guys miss out.
40:09
Speaker 4: And I can't be the only person who knows.
40:11
Speaker 5: Several people who've been trying to get into certain specialties
40:18
Speaker 5: and keep getting knocked back in favor of those who
40:22
Speaker 5: are patting the university's pockets. And it makes my blood boil,
40:26
Speaker 5: Like these people have studied so hard, they've tried to
40:29
Speaker 5: do entrance exams year in year out for five years
40:33
Speaker 5: in a row, some of them, and they are still
40:35
Speaker 5: being refused entry despite getting top marks because the universities
40:41
Speaker 5: are favoring those who are paying up front.
40:43
Speaker 4: It's just disgusting.
40:45
Speaker 5: And like you say, Kaylin, we've got these skills shortages.
40:48
Speaker 5: The solutions are staring our government in the face. They've
40:52
Speaker 5: been using the excuse of skills shortages to up the
40:55
Speaker 5: migration count for decades now, and what are we we have?
41:00
Speaker 4: We still have fill shortages.
41:02
Speaker 5: So instead of doing smart things like say, making nursing
41:06
Speaker 5: degrees as close to free as you possibly can, how
41:09
Speaker 5: about something that smart, because that's something that we're always
41:13
Speaker 5: going to.
41:13
Speaker 6: Need, never have enough of, and also constantly.
41:17
Speaker 5: Need to import people to work in age care, people
41:20
Speaker 5: to work in our hospitals, etc.
41:22
Speaker 7: And so on.
41:23
Speaker 5: No, you can't look at a policy that's simple.
41:26
Speaker 4: You can't look at.
41:27
Speaker 5: Getting rid of degrees in gender studies and all the
41:31
Speaker 5: useless arts degrees that these kids rack up a hex
41:35
Speaker 5: stet that the government couldn't care less about.
41:38
Speaker 4: Obviously graduate and.
41:40
Speaker 5: Are utterly useless to society.
41:43
Speaker 4: They're not contributing members.
41:45
Speaker 5: They have absolutely nothing to offer the wider community.
41:49
Speaker 4: They can turf a lot.
41:51
Speaker 5: Of degrees, particularly arts degrees tomorrow, and we as a
41:55
Speaker 5: nation would not miss it. We wouldn't be missing out
41:58
Speaker 5: on a jolly thing. So many things that they can do,
42:00
Speaker 5: and they just don't.
42:02
Speaker 2: They don't.
42:02
Speaker 5: They just watch its sewer away year in, year out,
42:07
Speaker 5: and our unis are so money hungry. Meanwhile, it's our
42:10
Speaker 5: taxpayer dollar propping up these unis so that they can
42:14
Speaker 5: turf our ossie.
42:15
Speaker 4: Kids in favor of these guys. Does your head in Well,
42:18
Speaker 4: they don't.
42:18
Speaker 1: Call a Bachelor of Art to be a bugger all
42:21
Speaker 1: degree for nothing, do they now? The story on the
42:23
Speaker 1: front of the.
42:23
Speaker 7: Odds Tomorrow detainee attacked emergency worker. Geez, we keep hearing
42:27
Speaker 7: these stories, don't we Released Immigration detainee was involved in
42:31
Speaker 7: an alleged crime spree in Melbourne's in a North and
42:34
Speaker 7: West that prompted sixteen charges, including assaulting an emergency worker
42:39
Speaker 7: and multiple failures to adhere to a bridging visa and
42:42
Speaker 7: electronic monitoring. Now, every time one of these cases comes up,
42:47
Speaker 7: I have to ask the question again. Remember when we
42:50
Speaker 7: were told, oh, we're rushing this legislation through so we
42:53
Speaker 7: can redetain detainees who alleged to have committed offenses or
42:57
Speaker 7: ones that we believe are of high danger to the community.
43:01
Speaker 1: How many of those people?
43:03
Speaker 7: How many detainees have been locked up through those laws?
43:07
Speaker 1: Yet zero, big fat zero.
43:11
Speaker 7: The only ones who've been locked back up are those
43:13
Speaker 7: who have been charged with further offenses since they've been
43:17
Speaker 7: let out. How have we not done anything to stem
43:22
Speaker 7: the flow of alleged crimes.
43:23
Speaker 2: From these people.
43:24
Speaker 3: I used to think that surely Andrew Giles cannot survive
43:27
Speaker 3: this scandal, but now I'm convinced it wouldn't matter what happens.
43:31
Speaker 3: He will never lose his job because if he was
43:33
Speaker 3: ever going to be held responsible for this fiasco would
43:36
Speaker 3: have happened long ago.
43:38
Speaker 2: And the other thing that this story.
43:39
Speaker 3: Reminds me of is all these promises we hear from
43:42
Speaker 3: Claire O'Neill and from Andrew Giles, public safety as top
43:45
Speaker 3: of mind. It's our number one priority, and yet the
43:49
Speaker 3: thing just keeps going with innocent citizens being allegedly attacked
43:54
Speaker 3: and assaulted, and the government just seemed to let it happen.
43:58
Speaker 3: Let's go to the front page of the CANS mental
44:01
Speaker 3: Health Workers break silence over a highly dangerous workplace crisis
44:05
Speaker 3: point reads the headline, burned out CANS mental health workers
44:09
Speaker 3: are operating in a highly dangerous hospital unit where patients
44:13
Speaker 3: use and sell drugs, carry weapons, and staff fear being
44:17
Speaker 3: physically assaulted. Whistleblowers say CANS and Hinterland Hospital and Health
44:22
Speaker 3: Services top bosses have declared zero tolerance on workplace violence.
44:27
Speaker 3: It's another one of those conundrums where bureaucracy is saying
44:31
Speaker 3: one thing and the experience of people in that place
44:34
Speaker 3: is completely different. It does raise the question, though, excuse me,
44:38
Speaker 3: since the stabbings in Bondai, we had the barest discussion
44:43
Speaker 3: about mental health and how it's treated in this issue,
44:46
Speaker 3: and then that has sort of all gone away and
44:48
Speaker 3: now it's all the knife's fault.
44:49
Speaker 2: We've just got to stop knives.
44:51
Speaker 3: But I do think we need to come back and
44:53
Speaker 3: have a discussion about what are we doing about mental health?
44:55
Speaker 3: Because if you walk through the capital city in any
44:58
Speaker 3: of our major states right now, there's homeless and clearly
45:02
Speaker 3: mentally affected people wandering around all over the streets, and
45:05
Speaker 3: we seem to be hopelessly equipped to deal with it.
45:08
Speaker 2: And this is just another example.
45:11
Speaker 5: And this is the same in America when they have
45:15
Speaker 5: school shootings and their own own tragedies over there, it
45:19
Speaker 5: is always always at the hands of someone who is
45:23
Speaker 5: mentally un well. It's not the gun's fault, it's they
45:28
Speaker 5: who are wielding it. Same in this case. Now we've
45:31
Speaker 5: bought in these oh you know, police can scan for knives.
45:35
Speaker 5: Now those powers wouldn't have made a scrap of difference
45:38
Speaker 5: in any of the stabbings that we've seen, neither the
45:41
Speaker 5: Bondi stabbing nor the several now it seems almost a
45:45
Speaker 5: new one every day since then.
45:48
Speaker 4: But they want to be seen to be doing something.
45:51
Speaker 5: It is much easier to introduce a useless policy like
45:54
Speaker 5: that than it is to go what is going on
45:58
Speaker 5: with the mental health crisis in this country. They're completely
46:03
Speaker 5: ill equipped to deal with it. They don't even want
46:06
Speaker 5: to talk about it, and that's just the beginning. If
46:08
Speaker 5: you're going to have a conversation, let's have it now.
46:11
Speaker 5: Let's get it sorted out. It's the same with the
46:14
Speaker 5: DV crisis. Many people involved in that they need help
46:18
Speaker 5: themselves in terms of mental health. It's just a massive
46:24
Speaker 5: issue and we're not seeing anything done about it. Even
46:27
Speaker 5: the basic question of where did this come from? Okay,
46:31
Speaker 5: because it wasn't always this bad, to the front page
46:35
Speaker 5: of the Courier Mail Now IVF child gender shopping.
46:38
Speaker 4: Revealed designer baby ban. You mean you've only just thought
46:43
Speaker 4: of this.
46:43
Speaker 5: Shocking allegations of gender selection within the state's embattled fertility
46:49
Speaker 5: industry are being investigated by the Health Ombudsman. The revelation
46:54
Speaker 5: comes amid moves to make it illegal to design babies
46:56
Speaker 5: by gender, with a bill tabled in Queensland Parliament Yes
47:00
Speaker 5: today threatening providers with two years imprisonment.
47:05
Speaker 4: So Health Ministers.
47:06
Speaker 5: Shannon Fentomen, best known as the woman who doesn't know
47:09
Speaker 5: what a woman is, She's come out saying we're shocked
47:12
Speaker 5: to receive reports that some clinics are actually promising you
47:17
Speaker 5: the child of your choice of gender.
47:20
Speaker 6: That's not allowed.
47:22
Speaker 2: What is this?
47:23
Speaker 6: The China during the one child policy, and thank goodness
47:27
Speaker 6: for that.
47:27
Speaker 4: But then it makes you wonder how many.
47:30
Speaker 5: Other estates need to make these laws and why has
47:34
Speaker 5: it gone on for so long unchecked.
47:36
Speaker 3: We're going to go to a break. When we come back,
47:38
Speaker 3: we've seen dum Biden. We'll show you dum Biden again.
47:41
Speaker 3: But we've also got disturbing Biden that's coming up in
47:44
Speaker 3: a second.
47:48
Speaker 2: Look.
47:48
Speaker 3: Honestly, we had so many Joe Biden gaffes to show
47:51
Speaker 3: you tonight, we had.
47:52
Speaker 2: To nail it down to just two. So Lizie, you've
47:54
Speaker 2: got the first one.
47:55
Speaker 4: It was an extraordinary feat. Well, this is a new
47:58
Speaker 4: one from the president though. Marriage advice.
48:02
Speaker 5: If any gents are watching this evening and you're thinking
48:05
Speaker 5: of tying the knot, here's President Biden's advice to you.
48:10
Speaker 6: I said, every young man, think you get married marrying
48:13
Speaker 6: a family of five or more daughters.
48:15
Speaker 9: I did.
48:16
Speaker 2: My wife sold us the five sisters.
48:18
Speaker 3: You know why.
48:20
Speaker 2: One of them's always loved you, not the same one.
48:23
Speaker 2: One of them is always be on your side.
48:29
Speaker 5: That has got to be the most awkward laugh you've
48:32
Speaker 5: ever heard from a crowd. With that, is this guy
48:34
Speaker 5: aware of what's coming out.
48:35
Speaker 2: Of his mouth right now.
48:37
Speaker 7: It's like, you know, I've just got a production line
48:39
Speaker 7: of them coming through one cars that I just pick
48:42
Speaker 7: another one.
48:42
Speaker 1: It's all very strange, isn't it.
48:44
Speaker 7: But he also had some more words to say in
48:46
Speaker 7: this same speech. We know he loves passing bills, but
48:50
Speaker 7: what did he pass here?
48:52
Speaker 2: Let me close you this after I signed the pack
48:56
Speaker 2: and pack at ac into.
48:58
Speaker 1: Law jack hack of a neck and neck a jack
49:02
Speaker 1: and acalac. Yeah sure, buddy, we're all on board with that,
49:06
Speaker 1: aren't we? Best Lauries ever signed?
49:09
Speaker 3: My goodness, it just keeps getting worse. That's it from
49:12
Speaker 3: us tonight, but stick around. Coming up in just a
49:13
Speaker 3: moment is to read a penny show
