- 0:09Speaker 1: Goodness, it's the Bolt Report.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Good evening, Welcome to the Bolt Report. I'm Steve Price
- 0:17Speaker 2: filling in for Andrew Bolt this week. I suspect Andrew
- 0:19Speaker 2: wishes he was here to comment on what's unfolded in
- 0:22Speaker 2: the last twenty four hours around the returning isis connected
- 0:26Speaker 2: women and their children. The bride's return continues to unfold.
- 0:29Speaker 2: As we go to ed to night, we have Aspenbonfield
- 0:32Speaker 2: at Melbourne Airport. We'll check in on the latest in Sydney,
- 0:35Speaker 2: and we're told the Australian Federal Police will speak at
- 0:37Speaker 2: seven point thirty. We'll take that cross live plus Shadow
- 0:41Speaker 2: Home Affairs Spokesman John O. Dunheam will join us shortly.
- 0:45Speaker 2: One Nation's Barnaby Joyce on the government's announcement today of
- 0:48Speaker 2: an East Coast gas reserve, labeled a significant labor reform
- 0:53Speaker 2: by one of the ministers there but for me more interestingly,
- 0:56Speaker 2: the Prime Minister was absent and as the contest in
- 0:59Speaker 2: Pharah Titans and the dirty tricks intensify, including funding denials
- 1:04Speaker 2: from the Independent, we'll check in with our panel on
- 1:07Speaker 2: who they think might pick up the seat never held
- 1:10Speaker 2: by anyone but a Coalition member, but first tonight in
- 1:15Speaker 2: breaking news, they've landed. They're back in Australia. In the
- 1:18Speaker 2: last two hours on separate Qatar Airlines flights from Doha
- 1:21Speaker 2: into Melbourne and Sydney. Four Isis brides and their nine children,
- 1:26Speaker 2: one woman and her son to Sydney and the remainder
- 1:29Speaker 2: here in Melbourne. I'll have arrest details for you in
- 1:32Speaker 2: a second. As late as today, the burning question remains,
- 1:35Speaker 2: why are they here? And forget all these excuses that
- 1:38Speaker 2: because they somehow mysteriously gained updated passports, including it would
- 1:43Speaker 2: seem one issue to a boy born not here but
- 1:45Speaker 2: in Syria. The question remains, and remember there are dozens
- 1:49Speaker 2: more of these people still back in that camp. It remains,
- 1:52Speaker 2: why are we letting them back in at all? Look,
- 1:54Speaker 2: the arrival is still unfolding and will cross there shortly.
- 1:58Speaker 2: And by the way, there was an ABC reporter, interestingly enough,
- 2:01Speaker 2: aboard the landed Melbourne flight, a Bridget Rolison, who revealed
- 2:06Speaker 2: in an audio post that one of the Melbourne bound women,
- 2:09Speaker 2: let's hope it wasn't one that I'm about to tell you,
- 2:11Speaker 2: has already been arrested, was most looking forward to having
- 2:14Speaker 2: a late in her favorite Colin Street cafe.
- 2:19Speaker 1: I was speaking to some of these women at the
- 2:21Speaker 1: Johar Airport.
- 2:23Speaker 3: They were transity and they told.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Me that they're ruder, be forward to getting back.
- 2:27Speaker 4: Who is Melbourne?
- 2:28Speaker 5: They said that they really missed Australia.
- 2:30Speaker 6: When we spoke to the women that they were basically
- 2:33Speaker 6: for were excited, which one of them told me then
- 2:35Speaker 6: is the.
- 2:35Speaker 7: Most is in Lartes and she could wait a coffee
- 2:40Speaker 7: in Melbourne Collin Street.
- 2:44Speaker 2: Good God, a little revision here. These women, and some
- 2:47Speaker 2: of them with young children, chose or were ordered to
- 2:50Speaker 2: go to Racka, a hellhole set up by a murderous
- 2:53Speaker 2: terrorist group issues who butchered anyone who got in their way,
- 2:56Speaker 2: and remember including cutting the heads off of prisoners on
- 3:00Speaker 2: their propaganda channel. I mean, we had an Australian father,
- 3:03Speaker 2: Kaylin Sharufe now dead thank god, forcing his seven year
- 3:07Speaker 2: old son back in twenty fourteen to hold up the
- 3:09Speaker 2: severed head of a Syrian soldier. I mean Tony Abbott
- 3:12Speaker 2: called that image barbaric. Former US Secretary of State John
- 3:16Speaker 2: Kerry called it grotesque and stomach churning. Incredibly, the surviving
- 3:20Speaker 2: members of Sharoof's family came back here in twenty nineteen,
- 3:24Speaker 2: including five children. So we have been here before, but
- 3:27Speaker 2: this is different. These women chose to go there for
- 3:30Speaker 2: some reason. Their acceptance back home here seems to be
- 3:34Speaker 2: divided along political lines. This was Home Affairs Minister Tony
- 3:37Speaker 2: Burke yesterday.
- 3:39Speaker 8: The government is not repatriating and will not repatriate. The
- 3:43Speaker 8: government is not assisting and will not assist these individuals.
- 3:48Speaker 8: They made an appalling, disgraceful decision.
- 3:55Speaker 2: Of course, the government has assisted, they got passports. How
- 3:57Speaker 2: do you think they came back here? But as we
- 3:59Speaker 2: can go to air tonight. As The Australian and Peter
- 4:02Speaker 2: Kredlin have reported in the last hour, two of the
- 4:04Speaker 2: three women who've landed here in Melbourne are expected now
- 4:08Speaker 2: to face charges of crimes against humanity, put simply charges.
- 4:13Speaker 2: The Australian reports around allegations of keeping slaves. Now it's
- 4:18Speaker 2: reported that Quasar Abbas she's fifty four, one of her
- 4:22Speaker 2: daughters will be arrested. In fact, they might have already
- 4:26Speaker 2: been arrested. This is over allegations made by two women
- 4:29Speaker 2: from the Yazidi minority. One of those women, said to
- 4:33Speaker 2: be Tazia, claims she was enslaved by this family and
- 4:37Speaker 2: was repeatedly raped by patriarch Mohammed Ahmed, who she knew
- 4:41Speaker 2: as Abu Omar. Now Omar has denied the claims. He's
- 4:45Speaker 2: in jail in Iraq. Now this will all become clearer
- 4:49Speaker 2: as we expect, as I said an AFP media conference
- 4:52Speaker 2: at the bottom of this hour. Meanwhile, in New South
- 4:55Speaker 2: Wales was one of the returnees. There was only two,
- 4:57Speaker 2: a mother and a daughter, former nursing student Janai Safar,
- 5:01Speaker 2: who was married to an ISIS fighter and had a
- 5:04Speaker 2: child born there. Safah told The Australian by the way
- 5:07Speaker 2: in twenty nineteen she would quote never go back to Australia,
- 5:10Speaker 2: saying it was my decision to go away from where
- 5:14Speaker 2: women are naked on the street. I don't want my
- 5:17Speaker 2: son to be raised around that end of quote. Well,
- 5:20Speaker 2: the Australian is reporting that Safare, along with her son
- 5:23Speaker 2: and an unknown man, were escorted off that Sydney flight
- 5:27Speaker 2: by a federal policeman, according to passengers on board. There
- 5:30Speaker 2: are reports earlier today that Safar would be arrested in
- 5:33Speaker 2: relation to entering or remaining in a declared terrorist area.
- 5:37Speaker 2: Now that might give you some insight into the sort
- 5:39Speaker 2: of people we are importing back into Australia tonight. National
- 5:43Speaker 2: Senate Leader Bridget Mackenzie made it very clear today where
- 5:46Speaker 2: she stood on all of this.
- 5:48Speaker 7: The helpless, hands off almost pantomime that the Labor Party
- 5:55Speaker 7: ministers have been going on with in recent weeks. Is
- 5:59Speaker 7: concerned it hasn't used the Passport Act to cancel or
- 6:03Speaker 7: suspend or delay the travel documents. Is outsourcing their responsibility
- 6:08Speaker 7: by saying it's up to the agency the government should
- 6:12Speaker 7: be able to determine who arrives.
- 6:17Speaker 9: Absolutely correct.
- 6:18Speaker 2: It seems though that senior Labor ministers are a lot
- 6:20Speaker 2: more relaxed, including Education Minister Jason Clair. He bobbed up
- 6:24Speaker 2: on ABC News Breakfast this morning.
- 6:27Speaker 9: Have a look.
- 6:28Speaker 10: I've got faith in the Australian Federal Police. They know
- 6:32Speaker 10: what they're doing. This is not their first rodeo, and
- 6:34Speaker 10: I trust in the words of the AFP Commissioner yesterday
- 6:38Speaker 10: when she said that some of these women will be
- 6:40Speaker 10: arrested when they arrive and others will be subject to
- 6:43Speaker 10: further investigation.
- 6:47Speaker 2: That's proven to be a collect But good luck Jason
- 6:49Speaker 2: finding schools for these children. I'll talk to One Nation's
- 6:52Speaker 2: Barnaby Joyce later. But he has in is elected a
- 6:54Speaker 2: number of the persecuted Yazidi minority, that is, has tried
- 6:59Speaker 2: to eliminate in a genocide. Look, miracle of miracles, all
- 7:02Speaker 2: of these people and their children might resettle into Australia,
- 7:06Speaker 2: go about their business sipping lattes on Collins Street. But
- 7:09Speaker 2: if we're so confident of that, why have we spent
- 7:12Speaker 2: millions of dollars and ten years investigating them? And frankly,
- 7:15Speaker 2: if you choose or submit to pressure to unite with
- 7:19Speaker 2: men involved in one of the most murderous, barbaric death
- 7:22Speaker 2: cults in history, in my view, you make your bed
- 7:25Speaker 2: and you lie in it, preferably not here so much
- 7:34Speaker 2: as unfolded in the last forty minutes or so. Let's
- 7:36Speaker 2: go out to Tullamarine Airport. Our reporter on the ground
- 7:39Speaker 2: is Aspen Blomfeld. We are hearing that there will be
- 7:43Speaker 2: arrests made. Aspen do enough. Yet if that has happened.
- 7:48Speaker 11: We still don't know. Steve nine years is reporting that
- 7:51Speaker 11: the Sydney woman and her child have been taken into
- 7:55Speaker 11: police custody. Immediately after that, katar AWE's flight landed at
- 7:59Speaker 11: Sydney Kingsford Smith. They did not leave through the ordinary
- 8:03Speaker 11: arrivals gate. Instead, it's understood they left through a side exit.
- 8:08Speaker 11: It's also understood that they are on their way to
- 8:10Speaker 11: Mascot Police Station where that woman will be charged. The
- 8:14Speaker 11: Australians reporting that woman will be charged with entering and
- 8:17Speaker 11: remaining in a declared terrorist zone. Here in Melbourne Airport
- 8:21Speaker 11: there are three ISIS linked women and eight children. They
- 8:26Speaker 11: landed about ninety minutes ago. However, there is still no
- 8:29Speaker 11: sign of those women or children. Most of the passengers
- 8:32Speaker 11: on that Guitar Airways flight have already cleared customs and
- 8:35Speaker 11: have made their way out of the door here. So
- 8:39Speaker 11: these women and children, well, they may just be taking
- 8:41Speaker 11: a long time to collect their bags, but the more
- 8:43Speaker 11: likely option is that they are currently being interviewed by
- 8:47Speaker 11: the AFP. We know that the Federal Police are holding
- 8:50Speaker 11: a press conference in the next thirty odd minutes. There
- 8:54Speaker 11: are plenty of supporters and family members here at Melbourne Airport.
- 8:58Speaker 11: You might be able to see a few them just
- 9:00Speaker 11: over my left shoulder after they've come out of that
- 9:05Speaker 11: arrival's door. There is a crowd of about ten men
- 9:09Speaker 11: wearing black suits that we understand to be either supporters
- 9:12Speaker 11: or family members of these ISIS brides and their children.
- 9:16Speaker 11: So still a very dynamic situation here, Steve, no sign
- 9:20Speaker 11: of them just yet. Will bring you all the latest
- 9:22Speaker 11: when we find.
- 9:23Speaker 2: Out, Aspen, thank you very much for that. Now, if
- 9:28Speaker 2: I do my mask correctly, if there are two arrests
- 9:30Speaker 2: there and there's eight children, that would leave one of
- 9:34Speaker 2: the mothers of one of the mothers of some of
- 9:37Speaker 2: those children, plus the children themselves. Now, whether they will
- 9:41Speaker 2: be allowed to exit immigration in the normal manner or
- 9:44Speaker 2: whether the AFP will assist them in being taken out
- 9:48Speaker 2: an alternative route, we.
- 9:50Speaker 9: May never know.
- 9:50Speaker 2: But we'll keep Aspen there at the airport. We'll find
- 9:53Speaker 2: out exactly how that unfolds in the next half an
- 9:55Speaker 2: hour or so. In the Australian Federal Police they're going
- 9:58Speaker 2: to have a media conference or believe it probably will
- 10:00Speaker 2: be held in Melbourne. Will take you live to that
- 10:02Speaker 2: around about half an hour from now. Let's continue our
- 10:06Speaker 2: coverage of this with the Shadow Home Affairs and Immigration
- 10:08Speaker 2: Minister Jonathan Dunham. Jonathan, this return of Sydney Melbourne double
- 10:13Speaker 2: they're all on the ground. We do know now Nine's
- 10:17Speaker 2: reporting that the Sydney mother and her daughter have been
- 10:21Speaker 2: taken into custody. We expect more arrests in Melbourne. Does
- 10:24Speaker 2: that make you more comfortable about their return?
- 10:28Speaker 5: Not at all, Steve can I tell you the fact
- 10:31Speaker 5: that they're here makes me very uncomfortable.
- 10:33Speaker 1: We should never have let them in. That's the point.
- 10:36Speaker 5: I mean, the fact that we are arresting people on
- 10:39Speaker 5: their arrival means we shouldn't have allowed them to come
- 10:42Speaker 5: to Australia.
- 10:43Speaker 1: We're talking about terror.
- 10:44Speaker 5: Related offenses here, and under the Passports Act there is
- 10:48Speaker 5: a power for the Foreign Minister to not issue passports
- 10:51Speaker 5: to people on grounds of national security, and I would
- 10:54Speaker 5: argue that terror related offenses are a good enough reason
- 10:58Speaker 5: not to give someone a passport anyway. Now Labour have
- 11:00Speaker 5: let them in and so yes, a couple of people charged,
- 11:03Speaker 5: and goodness knows how many will ultimately be arrested. But
- 11:08Speaker 5: at the end of the day, if the AFP cannot
- 11:11Speaker 5: give us a complete picture of what is happening to
- 11:13Speaker 5: that entire cohort and what protections are going to be
- 11:17Speaker 5: put in place for the people of Australia relating to
- 11:20Speaker 5: this group.
- 11:21Speaker 3: Then I'm going to be very worried for a period
- 11:23Speaker 3: of time to come.
- 11:26Speaker 9: You make an excellent point.
- 11:28Speaker 2: I mean the two women, the Australians reporting that the
- 11:30Speaker 2: two women who are likely to be arrested or probably
- 11:34Speaker 2: already have been, and whether they're then taken into custody
- 11:38Speaker 2: and questioned and then released on bail.
- 11:41Speaker 9: I don't know.
- 11:42Speaker 2: We should find that out from the AFP, as I
- 11:44Speaker 2: said in about twenty minutes. But the charges are said
- 11:47Speaker 2: to revolve around the keeping of Yazidi women and using
- 11:54Speaker 2: them as slaves, with one allegation that the husband of
- 11:58Speaker 2: the older woman who's landed back in Melbourne tonight was
- 12:01Speaker 2: involved in raping this woman. Now let's go all the
- 12:05Speaker 2: way back to Doha and back into Syria. What the
- 12:09Speaker 2: hell are they Why the hell are they ever let
- 12:11Speaker 2: to leave there?
- 12:13Speaker 1: Well, exactly, that's the point.
- 12:16Speaker 5: I mean, we're not talking about small misdemeanors and perhaps
- 12:20Speaker 5: putting a post up online that we might consider to
- 12:23Speaker 5: be offensive. We're talking about some of the worst crimes here.
- 12:27Speaker 5: So of course, as as been mentioned before, you've got
- 12:30Speaker 5: the crime of going to a declared area and remaining there.
- 12:34Speaker 5: That's one of those charges. And then of course those
- 12:36Speaker 5: allegations around the act of slavery against those year Zdi
- 12:42Speaker 5: women and to read the reports there is disgusting. And
- 12:47Speaker 5: these are people who are now coming back to Australia
- 12:49Speaker 5: who will cost the tax players an absolute bomb, reports
- 12:53Speaker 5: of up to two million dollars per person per year,
- 12:56Speaker 5: and they want to take full advantage of our legal system,
- 13:00Speaker 5: which is of course a hallmark of our wonderful Western democracy,
- 13:03Speaker 5: something that these people opposed, and to bring them back
- 13:06Speaker 5: here in this way and for the government to allow
- 13:09Speaker 5: this to happen is a complete failure of this government's
- 13:13Speaker 5: commitment to our national security and protection of the people here.
- 13:17Speaker 5: So they say they'll be met with the full force
- 13:20Speaker 5: of the law. But the last isis bribe that came
- 13:22Speaker 5: in and was met with the full force of the law,
- 13:25Speaker 5: got a good behavior bond.
- 13:26Speaker 1: So let's see what happens.
- 13:30Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean as usual.
- 13:31Speaker 2: I mean these women, we still wait to find out
- 13:34Speaker 2: what the charges exactly will be. And then once they're charged,
- 13:37Speaker 2: of course they're presumed innocent until they go through our
- 13:40Speaker 2: court system, which is not something they would have had
- 13:43Speaker 2: the luxury of in Syria. And they're innocent until they
- 13:46Speaker 2: go through that court process. So we'll see what happens.
- 13:49Speaker 2: One thing that stood out for me yesterday, when Chrissy Barrett,
- 13:52Speaker 2: the AFP Commissioner, was asked some questions about this, she
- 13:56Speaker 2: mentioned the children that they would be ah asked to
- 14:00Speaker 2: get involved in some form of de radicalization program. Well
- 14:05Speaker 2: point one, asked is not required to and point two
- 14:08Speaker 2: the very request indicates some form of radicalization probably has occurred.
- 14:14Speaker 1: Exactly the point.
- 14:15Speaker 5: And you know, it is terrible that there are children
- 14:18Speaker 5: who have against their will. You know, they're not adults.
- 14:23Speaker 5: They can't make decisions in the way adults can. So
- 14:26Speaker 5: they have been taken there by their parents, or they
- 14:28Speaker 5: were born there and were under the guardianship.
- 14:31Speaker 1: Of their parents.
- 14:31Speaker 5: So in that sense, it's not their choice and it's
- 14:34Speaker 5: very distressing, but they remain a risk. They were born
- 14:37Speaker 5: into or raised amongst fundamentalist Islamist extremists.
- 14:42Speaker 3: So something is.
- 14:43Speaker 5: Going to have rubbed off on these people, on these kids,
- 14:46Speaker 5: and so therefore they are a risk to our society.
- 14:49Speaker 1: And finally it is acknowledged now as.
- 14:51Speaker 5: You say, they'll be asked to participate in this, and
- 14:54Speaker 5: of course they're going to say no. But even if
- 14:55Speaker 5: they did participate, as the former af officer David Craig's
- 15:00Speaker 5: on an earlier program, on sky. These programs have limited,
- 15:03Speaker 5: almost no success. So I'm very worried about what we
- 15:07Speaker 5: are bringing back into this country. Labor say they can't
- 15:11Speaker 5: do anything about it. Well, now they've done nothing about it.
- 15:13Speaker 5: They're here and they are our problem as a country.
- 15:15Speaker 5: We're going to have to pay for them, and we're
- 15:17Speaker 5: going to have to be worried about them as a community.
- 15:19Speaker 5: Where are they going to be what are they going
- 15:21Speaker 5: to be doing?
- 15:21Speaker 2: We don't know it, yes, And when it comes down
- 15:26Speaker 2: to the question of resources too, does the AFP or
- 15:29Speaker 2: AZO or state police have the resources to properly monitor
- 15:33Speaker 2: these people, let alone what is it? There's another thirty
- 15:36Speaker 2: five potential returnees still sitting in that refugee camp, who
- 15:41Speaker 2: I presume now are going to be able to stand
- 15:43Speaker 2: up Jonathan and go, well, they went, why can't we?
- 15:47Speaker 5: So here we are in Australia, and again through the
- 15:50Speaker 5: news today you see this outbreak of the illicit alcohol
- 15:55Speaker 5: walls breaking out in Victoria on top of the elicit
- 15:58Speaker 5: tobacco trade which is out of control, and this government's
- 16:01Speaker 5: doing nothing about it yet expecting the AFP to fix it. Well,
- 16:06Speaker 5: all of the resources that are going to manage the
- 16:08Speaker 5: arsis Bride's situation, and the commissioners outlined the work that
- 16:12Speaker 5: they were a part of that would have taken resources
- 16:14Speaker 5: away from other things they should be doing. And of
- 16:18Speaker 5: course then if you're going to have round the clock monitoring,
- 16:20Speaker 5: whether it's in person or through some sort of electronic
- 16:23Speaker 5: monitoring program, you're going to have perhaps escorted visits to
- 16:27Speaker 5: certain places.
- 16:29Speaker 1: Who knows.
- 16:29Speaker 5: I mean, this is going to come at a great cost.
- 16:31Speaker 5: And so instead of dealing with the hideous criminals we
- 16:34Speaker 5: have in our society right now that need to be
- 16:36Speaker 5: dealt with, we're going to be dealing with these people,
- 16:39Speaker 5: these terrorist sympathizers have come back to Australia because Labor
- 16:43Speaker 5: have let them, and AFP officials and others from other
- 16:47Speaker 5: agencies are going to be dealing with this too.
- 16:49Speaker 1: It is not okay.
- 16:50Speaker 5: It is a bad use of resources and it could
- 16:52Speaker 5: have been prevented if Labor had have done the right
- 16:54Speaker 5: thing and stop them from coming in in the first place.
- 16:59Speaker 2: Just a reminder AFP media conference probably in the next
- 17:02Speaker 2: ten or so minutes. Something that intrigues me. I want
- 17:05Speaker 2: to get to the bottom of. I mean, you're going
- 17:08Speaker 2: to have centered estimates in a couple of weeks. Are
- 17:10Speaker 2: we going to be able to get to the bottom
- 17:12Speaker 2: of you and James Patterson and others exactly what assistance
- 17:17Speaker 2: was given? Okay, maybe not Tony Burke getting on a
- 17:21Speaker 2: plane and going over there and handing our passports. But
- 17:23Speaker 2: what did his department do, What did the public servants do,
- 17:26Speaker 2: what did the people attached to embassies do to assist
- 17:30Speaker 2: these people? Because every day Australian sitting here watching this
- 17:34Speaker 2: tonight are going, well, how come this mob went from
- 17:37Speaker 2: a refugee camp to the capital of Syria, Damascus, suddenly
- 17:42Speaker 2: got brand new minted passports and flew home on Qatar
- 17:45Speaker 2: airlines in their back here.
- 17:47Speaker 5: Well, yes, and I'll guarantee you now, the first answer
- 17:51Speaker 5: we'll get in relation to questions around these matters is
- 17:55Speaker 5: that they'll say, oh, it's a matter that we're currently investigating.
- 17:58Speaker 1: There are charges laid.
- 17:59Speaker 3: We don't want to pre digits the outcome there.
- 18:02Speaker 5: Frankly, that's not going to be good enough, because I
- 18:05Speaker 5: support provided is something we need to get to the
- 18:08Speaker 5: bottom of. Syrian authorities today reported that they only allowed
- 18:12Speaker 5: these people to go because they were given the go
- 18:14Speaker 5: ahead by the Australian government, So on top of the
- 18:17Speaker 5: biometric testing that was done reportedly back in twenty twenty two.
- 18:21Speaker 1: The passports that were issued, the fact that no.
- 18:24Speaker 5: One has ever looked into the fact that I think
- 18:26Speaker 5: it might be Section thirty seven of the Passports Act,
- 18:29Speaker 5: where it's an offense to carry the passport of another
- 18:32Speaker 5: person across international borders without the authority of either the
- 18:36Speaker 5: government or.
- 18:36Speaker 3: The passport holder.
- 18:38Speaker 1: No one's investigated that.
- 18:39Speaker 5: And if there's a certain individual who missed the doctor
- 18:43Speaker 5: Jamal Riffley says he carried the passports over he with
- 18:45Speaker 5: the courier, that's an offense unless he have authority. So
- 18:50Speaker 5: all of these things amount to a bit of a
- 18:52Speaker 5: here no evil, see no evil, and we'll.
- 18:55Speaker 3: Just hope it turns out alright on the day.
- 18:57Speaker 5: From the Australian government, they have allowed this to have
- 19:00Speaker 5: and then in fact I would go further.
- 19:01Speaker 3: They have facilitated the return of these isis brides.
- 19:05Speaker 5: Bringing with them the risk the potential harm to our
- 19:08Speaker 5: community and no certainly we're protected from it.
- 19:12Speaker 2: Jonathan Duddam, thank you very much for joining us. I
- 19:15Speaker 2: appreciate it very much. The Australian Federal Police Media Conference
- 19:17Speaker 2: coming up. So in summary, Two Katari flights landed in
- 19:20Speaker 2: Australia tonight, one in Melbourne, one in Sydney. The one
- 19:23Speaker 2: in Sydney had an isis bride and a child on board.
- 19:27Speaker 2: They rescued it off that plane are now being interviewed
- 19:29Speaker 2: by Australian Federal police.
- 19:31Speaker 9: In Melbourne.
- 19:32Speaker 2: Three Irish isis brides and eight children landed on that
- 19:36Speaker 2: guitar flight. They have not appeared on the public side
- 19:40Speaker 2: of the airport at this stage. Reports are that at
- 19:43Speaker 2: least two of those women will be arrested by Australian
- 19:46Speaker 2: Federal Police. So this is an ongoing story. We'll bring
- 19:49Speaker 2: all the latest updates for you. Barnaby Joyce is up next.
- 19:57Speaker 2: Welcome back to the program. Rolling coverage tonight, of course,
- 19:59Speaker 2: of the a rival back in Australia of the circled
- 20:03Speaker 2: Isis brides and their children. Three women into Melbourne with
- 20:07Speaker 2: eight children, and a mother and a child in Sydney.
- 20:10Speaker 2: We're told that mother and child has been escorted off
- 20:13Speaker 2: the flight by Australian Federal Police and we're told probably
- 20:17Speaker 2: that two women in Melbourne will also be interviewed and
- 20:23Speaker 2: potentially charged with offences. We'll keep you across that the
- 20:26Speaker 2: Australian Federal Police due up shortly joining me. Now One
- 20:30Speaker 2: Nation MP Barnaby Joyce, I'm going to go away from
- 20:33Speaker 2: that issue for a moment, but I'm going to come
- 20:35Speaker 2: back and ask you in a moment about the Yazidi
- 20:38Speaker 2: population in your electorate. But the government today announced this
- 20:42Speaker 2: new gas Yes, the new gas policy East Coast at
- 20:48Speaker 2: a twenty percent of the gas to the domestic market
- 20:51Speaker 2: now according to the Australian Barnaby and you know this,
- 20:53Speaker 2: the gas producers have been left stunned by the scale
- 20:56Speaker 2: of Labour's actual intervention.
- 20:59Speaker 9: Is that right? Is that you're understanding?
- 21:03Speaker 12: Yeah, it's massive. First of all, its total confusion.
- 21:05Speaker 13: We had Madeline King with one message, Chris Mahon with another,
- 21:09Speaker 13: and then I said I was only uncontracted gas and
- 21:11Speaker 13: some people said, well there's not much of that. We're
- 21:14Speaker 13: totally contracted, so it doesn't affect us. And then it's
- 21:17Speaker 13: become something more. And now it's actually gone into the
- 21:20Speaker 13: actual business case of why these people actually invested in
- 21:24Speaker 13: the industry. Now, no matter what you think, people make
- 21:27Speaker 13: decisions about how they invest money on the rules that
- 21:31Speaker 13: are before them. And when you change the rules that
- 21:34Speaker 13: are before them, it completely changes the whole strength of
- 21:38Speaker 13: their credit, It changes the whole wreck the reason they
- 21:43Speaker 13: are in the market. So you've got to be really,
- 21:46Speaker 13: really careful. That's why one nation believes if you want
- 21:48Speaker 13: to go into this place and you should of having
- 21:52Speaker 13: gas for Australians, you have.
- 21:53Speaker 14: To be an equity partner.
- 21:55Speaker 13: That is, you kick the tin, you own part of
- 21:57Speaker 13: the part of the precinct, take the wins, you take
- 22:01Speaker 13: the losses.
- 22:02Speaker 14: You're in there as a business partner.
- 22:03Speaker 13: But if you just charge in to Sky, to any
- 22:07Speaker 13: business and say well, Sky, now I own twenty percent
- 22:11Speaker 13: of all your advertising revenue and I can sell it
- 22:13Speaker 13: to who I want, then Sky.
- 22:15Speaker 12: Will say, well, may our business plan doesn't work like that.
- 22:18Speaker 12: It's not gonna work. It doesn't stack up.
- 22:20Speaker 13: You can't just arrive in our office and tell us
- 22:24Speaker 13: that you own twenty percent of our advertising capacity. It's
- 22:28Speaker 13: and this is the sort of haphazard things that happen
- 22:31Speaker 13: under a socialist type of government that believes in the
- 22:35Speaker 13: primacy of the state of the individual and does not
- 22:38Speaker 13: have any conception of how business actually works and how
- 22:42Speaker 13: you actually go forward with the program. If we want
- 22:45Speaker 13: to deal with gas issues, and we should if we
- 22:49Speaker 13: want a better return to the Australian people, and they
- 22:51Speaker 13: should get it, then we should be equity partners in
- 22:54Speaker 13: the companies in how they develop new gas fields.
- 22:58Speaker 14: So mister Bayne, Madeline.
- 22:59Speaker 13: Can help us out streamline your environmental regulations so we
- 23:04Speaker 13: can get more gas out of the ground, get rid
- 23:06Speaker 13: of your climate change department, get rid of your climate
- 23:08Speaker 13: change regulations, and let's get going and we can do
- 23:12Speaker 13: great things for Australia, not just in gas, but an
- 23:14Speaker 13: oil and so many other things make our nation wealthy.
- 23:19Speaker 2: One of a couple of logistical things about this deal
- 23:22Speaker 2: that I couldn't quite understand watching that media conference, Madeline
- 23:26Speaker 2: King seem to be suggesting that they're now going to
- 23:29Speaker 2: negotiate with the actual gas companies to get this deal
- 23:33Speaker 2: across the line. I would have thought you would have
- 23:36Speaker 2: ticked all those boxes already beforehand. And the other thing
- 23:40Speaker 2: that struck me is, you know, Queensland's got all the gas,
- 23:44Speaker 2: as you know, and Victoria, which uses most of it,
- 23:50Speaker 2: Victoria gets it in a pipeline. Now I'm told the
- 23:53Speaker 2: pipeline is already completely jammed up and can't take any
- 23:57Speaker 2: more gas. So I'm not sure where this gas is
- 24:00Speaker 2: going to go the twenty percent of gas we're going
- 24:04Speaker 2: to reserve.
- 24:04Speaker 9: Where is it and where is it going to go to?
- 24:08Speaker 13: Yeah, there's capacity constraints and you're dead right that are
- 24:11Speaker 13: already there.
- 24:12Speaker 14: You can't do it.
- 24:13Speaker 13: But now they've got this other great idea that they're
- 24:15Speaker 13: actually going to load it and then ship it round
- 24:18Speaker 13: to Victoria and uffloaded. But what's really reverse about this perverse?
- 24:25Speaker 13: It would this way, yeah, into an offloading facility. I
- 24:28Speaker 13: mean we've heard people don't have one, Andrew Forrest talk
- 24:31Speaker 13: about this, but yeah, well you know, like the green hydrogen,
- 24:34Speaker 13: it just doesn't exist.
- 24:36Speaker 12: Like it's like all these the whole thing's rubbish.
- 24:38Speaker 13: I mean, see if we have to go through this
- 24:40Speaker 13: whole sort of retinue of this ranch and dance about
- 24:43Speaker 13: this garbage bs stuff that revolves around climate polsy gas policy.
- 24:49Speaker 13: But you know where there's a lot of gas.
- 24:51Speaker 12: It's under Victoria. It's under their damn feet.
- 24:55Speaker 14: But they don't want.
- 24:56Speaker 13: To dig it up because of the because of the greens,
- 24:58Speaker 13: because the frogs and the moss and the lizards and
- 25:01Speaker 13: the skinks and everybody else lives in the Treasury Department
- 25:04Speaker 13: of Victoria.
- 25:05Speaker 9: It gets worse. It gets worse than that part.
- 25:07Speaker 2: I mean, we've got a Minister for Energy, Lily d Ambrosio,
- 25:12Speaker 2: who's passed laws through the Parliament that all new builds
- 25:16Speaker 2: can't have gas. You've got to connect it to electricity,
- 25:19Speaker 2: you've got to have electric cook top doesn't and you're
- 25:23Speaker 2: you're not allowed to have even your barbecue connected to
- 25:26Speaker 2: natural gas. So well, one person saying to get rid
- 25:30Speaker 2: of you can't have gas. The other one is saying,
- 25:32Speaker 2: we've just done this u butte deal to get gas.
- 25:36Speaker 13: Because that's what happens when the green socialists run the place,
- 25:39Speaker 13: total unmitigated chaos.
- 25:41Speaker 12: Craziness is just if you know, as.
- 25:44Speaker 13: My old boss is the same in Accountcy. If you
- 25:47Speaker 13: didn't laugh, you'd cry. It is just so crazy. And
- 25:51Speaker 13: so they won't let gas into the houses because gas
- 25:55Speaker 13: is evil. But they complain that they don't have enough gas,
- 25:58Speaker 13: so they force another state to.
- 26:00Speaker 14: Give it to them.
- 26:01Speaker 13: And then they say we're going to have manufacturing in Australia,
- 26:06Speaker 13: but they don't want to bring the gas up, so
- 26:09Speaker 13: this is magic manufacturing.
- 26:11Speaker 12: So they want you to go to electricity.
- 26:13Speaker 13: The dearest electricians, one of the dearest electricities in the
- 26:16Speaker 13: oecd that we're making dearer because we're blowing up our
- 26:21Speaker 13: Qualifi power.
- 26:22Speaker 14: Stations to put in wind.
- 26:24Speaker 13: Towers and solar panel fields and transmission lines.
- 26:29Speaker 14: Because we've got them. Worship the Great God Geyer.
- 26:32Speaker 13: It's just I mean, you just sit back and you go.
- 26:34Speaker 13: These people are back a clowns, as they used to say.
- 26:38Speaker 13: There's got no idea, You just sit back and go.
- 26:42Speaker 13: You haven't got a clue.
- 26:44Speaker 2: The other thing that struck me about that media conference
- 26:46Speaker 2: politically was Tim Is the other minister was there. He
- 26:50Speaker 2: stood up and he made a grand speech saying, you
- 26:53Speaker 2: know this was a significant landmark. Labor reform was so
- 26:57Speaker 2: significant Bund who the Prime Minister in your self didn't
- 27:00Speaker 2: turn up there.
- 27:03Speaker 14: It's typical of Labor.
- 27:05Speaker 13: I'd have to say, if you want a seminal Labor
- 27:08Speaker 13: Party reform and Labor Party policy, then Tim Ayres is
- 27:12Speaker 13: the best man to announce it, and what you heard
- 27:15Speaker 13: today is the greatest example of it. And the Australian
- 27:18Speaker 13: people suffer because of it because it's chaos.
- 27:21Speaker 12: It is these guys have not got a clue. They
- 27:25Speaker 12: do not know what they are doing. It is a joke.
- 27:28Speaker 14: And you know.
- 27:30Speaker 12: Just like the other.
- 27:31Speaker 13: You know, similar to when they're bringing you in fuel
- 27:34Speaker 13: we've got one hundred.
- 27:35Speaker 12: Million leaders, except that we use ninety two million leaders
- 27:38Speaker 12: a day. You know, this is the sort of you know.
- 27:40Speaker 13: You sit back and when you sort of drill through
- 27:43Speaker 13: the details of.
- 27:44Speaker 12: What they say, you find the same thing.
- 27:48Speaker 14: Chaos.
- 27:51Speaker 2: Well, speaking of chaos, we talked on Monday night and
- 27:54Speaker 2: we just heard that the inland rail program was going
- 27:57Speaker 2: to be chopped off.
- 27:59Speaker 9: It in the middle of nowhere.
- 28:01Speaker 2: What's the reaction been since and how are the community
- 28:04Speaker 2: is affected by this reacting to it.
- 28:09Speaker 12: I don't know where to start with this one, Steve.
- 28:11Speaker 14: People are so furious, So let's start on what.
- 28:14Speaker 12: We're in the middle of an oil crisis, correct now.
- 28:17Speaker 13: The way to mitigate in an oil crisis and transport
- 28:19Speaker 13: is to have an alternative to things moving around in
- 28:22Speaker 13: semi trailers. That's called railway lines. But they're scrapping the
- 28:26Speaker 13: railway line and instead of having one inland rail, we've
- 28:30Speaker 13: now got two. One going from Melbourne to Parks from
- 28:34Speaker 13: five million people to about twelve thousand people. But then
- 28:37Speaker 13: they say it can turn right and go to Sydney,
- 28:39Speaker 13: and another one that goes from Newcastle to north Star
- 28:43Speaker 13: for your listeners.
- 28:44Speaker 14: North Stars about one hundred and fifty people. It's in the.
- 28:46Speaker 13: Plain north of Maury and that's where the other inland
- 28:50Speaker 13: rail goes. So they won't connect the two up and
- 28:53Speaker 13: they won't go where it's And then I hear Minister King,
- 28:56Speaker 13: the Minister for Excuses saying, well, they didn't.
- 28:58Speaker 12: Know where it started and didn't know where finished.
- 29:00Speaker 14: Okay, I'll help you out.
- 29:01Speaker 12: It starts at Melbourne and.
- 29:02Speaker 14: It finishes at Brisbane.
- 29:03Speaker 13: That's why it's called the Brisbane to Melbourne in Land Rail.
- 29:07Speaker 13: And all the towns that were going to be advanced
- 29:10Speaker 13: because of it, like Parks, like Narrowbi, like Morey, and
- 29:14Speaker 13: they want to bridge the gap for the Aboriginal austrains,
- 29:17Speaker 13: and so do I, so do I are the indigenous people.
- 29:19Speaker 13: So they find the biggest investment project that's going to
- 29:22Speaker 13: happen for the Aboriginal community in more.
- 29:26Speaker 12: And they can it. They get rid of it.
- 29:29Speaker 14: But of course this is the hypocrisy of them.
- 29:32Speaker 13: See they don't care, but they say that rail is
- 29:34Speaker 13: unviable and shouldn't be done, even though they can't provide
- 29:38Speaker 13: us the details of how they came up with forty
- 29:40Speaker 13: five billion dollars. It's like doctor No from Most and powers,
- 29:43Speaker 13: like forty five billion dollars. But I can't actually tell
- 29:46Speaker 13: you how it came up with forty five billion dollars.
- 29:48Speaker 12: I'll just say it.
- 29:50Speaker 15: But then they are going to build a fast rail
- 29:53Speaker 15: from Newcastle to Sydney for hundreds of billions of dollars,
- 29:57Speaker 15: for which only thirty percent the money will come from
- 30:01Speaker 15: ticket sales.
- 30:03Speaker 12: It is as you suble, It's just incredible.
- 30:07Speaker 9: As you said.
- 30:08Speaker 2: If it wasn't so crazy, you'd laugh. I've got to
- 30:12Speaker 2: go to some new pictures of these Isis brides, but
- 30:15Speaker 2: I just want to give you the opportunity very quickly
- 30:18Speaker 2: to tell me about the Yazidi people who are in your.
- 30:21Speaker 9: Electric No, we've lost fun of me. I think.
- 30:26Speaker 2: These pictures that we're bringing to you here activity outside
- 30:30Speaker 2: the Mascot Police station where we've heard reports one of
- 30:33Speaker 2: the so called Isis brides.
- 30:35Speaker 9: Has been taken into custody.
- 30:36Speaker 2: You can see the pictures there outside that Mascot police station.
- 30:41Speaker 9: And this from the Sidney Monty Herald.
- 30:43Speaker 2: Joe's Janni Safar who was led off the plane in
- 30:46Speaker 2: the back of that car. So they're pictures just in
- 30:50Speaker 2: and well, it's all happening there in Sydney as we speak.
- 30:53Speaker 9: To you now.
- 30:54Speaker 2: The Melbourne situation is that the eight children and three
- 30:59Speaker 2: women have arrived on the Qatar airline here have not
- 31:02Speaker 2: exited that Melbourne airport, so they're fresh pictures just in
- 31:05Speaker 2: of the two women in Sydney who have now been
- 31:08Speaker 2: taken to a police station in Mascot. We'll have full
- 31:13Speaker 2: updates for you in a moment, and of course we're
- 31:15Speaker 2: still waiting on the Australian Federal Police there due to
- 31:17Speaker 2: address the media shortly.
- 31:19Speaker 9: And we'll talk to our panel next.
- 31:25Speaker 2: Welcome Ack to Price with you our rolling coverage of
- 31:27Speaker 2: the return of these women and children on two Katari
- 31:30Speaker 2: flights out of Doha tonight. They're back in Australia. Two
- 31:34Speaker 2: women in Sydney. We've just shown your vision of two
- 31:36Speaker 2: of those women arriving at a police station in Mascot
- 31:39Speaker 2: at the Melbourne airport. Still no sign of three women
- 31:42Speaker 2: and eight children that have landed back in Melbourne, with
- 31:46Speaker 2: the reports that two of those older women will be
- 31:49Speaker 2: spoken to by Australian Federal Police, potentially arrested, and will
- 31:53Speaker 2: bring you updates as it unfolds. And in Fresh Breaking
- 31:58Speaker 2: News will bring it to you straight away, and vision
- 32:00Speaker 2: of those women in Melbourne Charry Marks and of course
- 32:03Speaker 2: after me will do likewise. Our panels up next. And
- 32:07Speaker 2: apparently I'm told a lighter side of this I showed
- 32:12Speaker 2: you earlier. An ABC reporter spoke to one of these
- 32:15Speaker 2: women in Doha where she talked about her favorite part
- 32:20Speaker 2: of Melbourne was having a latte in Colin Street. So
- 32:25Speaker 2: James McPherson and Christy McSweeney join us. They are with
- 32:30Speaker 2: us tonight. James, I wonder how the bloke who runs
- 32:33Speaker 2: the cafe in Colin Street, which is the favorite cafe
- 32:36Speaker 2: of one of these women's feels about her turning up
- 32:38Speaker 2: for a late tomorrow morning.
- 32:40Speaker 6: Well, I guess you ask would she like her coffee
- 32:42Speaker 6: califated or decalifated?
- 32:45Speaker 14: Oh?
- 32:45Speaker 2: Please, not one of those nights.
- 32:49Speaker 6: Look, I hope they enjoy the taste of the latte.
- 32:51Speaker 6: They obviously had a taste of liberal democracy and spat
- 32:54Speaker 6: it out. Now they're back, so anyway, good luck to them.
- 32:58Speaker 6: I'm not sure how the owner of that cafe in
- 33:01Speaker 6: Colin Street is going to feel, but he's you're going
- 33:04Speaker 6: to get publicity. That's obvious.
- 33:07Speaker 2: Christy in that same ABC interview and the ABC report
- 33:11Speaker 2: apparently somehow just miraculously ended up on a plane back
- 33:14Speaker 2: with them. They told her that they quote mister Australia
- 33:19Speaker 2: and we're most looking forward to having that latte. One
- 33:22Speaker 2: would say if they told me that, I would have
- 33:25Speaker 2: responded by saying, well, perhaps you shouldn't have gotten on
- 33:28Speaker 2: a plane and gone to Turkey and then cross the
- 33:31Speaker 2: border into Syria to Raka to join your isis boyfriend
- 33:35Speaker 2: who was in the middle of a caliphate where they
- 33:39Speaker 2: brutally murdered everybody.
- 33:43Speaker 16: I mean, I would love to say that's one of
- 33:45Speaker 16: the worst possible things that you could say to a reporter.
- 33:48Speaker 16: But of course these people aren't known for their judgment.
- 33:52Speaker 16: If they want to leave the democratic paradise of Australia
- 33:55Speaker 16: and go and fight for a terrorist organization and go
- 33:58Speaker 16: and attach themselves to a terrorist cause, and of course
- 34:04Speaker 16: they should be exceedingly generous to the Australia, exceedingly exceedingly
- 34:09Speaker 16: grateful to the Australian public who have We can't do
- 34:14Speaker 16: anything about letting them back in the country, but they
- 34:17Speaker 16: should be gracious in the fact that they have indeed
- 34:20Speaker 16: been allowed to return here.
- 34:27Speaker 2: Yeah, and of course we've got to let the legal
- 34:29Speaker 2: processes run their course and if the charges are proven
- 34:33Speaker 2: in court, well, if not, they'll be proven innocent. So
- 34:36Speaker 2: they're back in Australia and luckily for them, if that
- 34:38Speaker 2: same court process was undertaken in Syria, it might not
- 34:41Speaker 2: be quite as democratic. At the point you make, James,
- 34:46Speaker 2: I've made this point a couple of times the AFPs
- 34:48Speaker 2: Chrissy Barrett yesterday at that media conference she said, and
- 34:52Speaker 2: I double check this. I locked it, went back and
- 34:54Speaker 2: looked at it again. The children would be asked asked
- 34:59Speaker 2: to attend de radicalization courses. Ask really, couldn't we tell.
- 35:04Speaker 9: Them to do it?
- 35:05Speaker 6: Well, we're far too polite for that, Steve. So they'll
- 35:08Speaker 6: be asked nicely to participate. And one presumes if they
- 35:11Speaker 6: would like to do a deradicalization course then they will,
- 35:15Speaker 6: but if they'd prefer not to, then they won't. And
- 35:18Speaker 6: that pretty much sums up the Albanezy government's attitude towards
- 35:22Speaker 6: this group of people. The government has been very hands off,
- 35:25Speaker 6: says we're not assisting, but nor are they doing much,
- 35:28Speaker 6: it seems proactively to protect the Australian public.
- 35:33Speaker 1: So You're right.
- 35:34Speaker 6: According to the AFP, the kids will be asked if
- 35:36Speaker 6: they want to participate, and they will participate or not
- 35:40Speaker 6: at their leisure, which I think most Australians would be
- 35:43Speaker 6: pretty upset about. These kids have been in a region
- 35:47Speaker 6: of the world where extremist violence has been rife. We
- 35:52Speaker 6: don't know what these kids have seen, what they've experienced,
- 35:55Speaker 6: who's been in their ears. You would have thought this
- 35:59Speaker 6: would be a man the Tory condition of their return
- 36:02Speaker 6: to Australia, rather than a polite suggestion that they may
- 36:06Speaker 6: or may not take up according to their own volition.
- 36:11Speaker 2: Christy, I'm going to be very cranky for the rest
- 36:13Speaker 2: of the week, tonight and tomorrow night on my normal
- 36:15Speaker 2: Friday show because Jim Charmers has his budget next Tuesday,
- 36:19Speaker 2: as we all know, and he's declared war on baby boomers.
- 36:23Speaker 2: Now there's no surprise, I am a baby boomer. I
- 36:27Speaker 2: want to bring your attention to something which all landlords
- 36:29Speaker 2: should be worried about, especially when it comes to housing.
- 36:32Speaker 2: Jim Charmers is trying to polish this budget and make
- 36:35Speaker 2: it nicer than we know it's going to be. This
- 36:38Speaker 2: is what he said today on Sky News.
- 36:41Speaker 17: Our motivation there is not to make judgments about people
- 36:44Speaker 17: who have done well, but to make it easier for
- 36:48Speaker 17: people who feel locked out of housing because of the
- 36:51Speaker 17: way that our housing market and our tax system interacts.
- 36:55Speaker 2: Christy, how does he say that with a straight face.
- 36:57Speaker 2: We don't want to make things difficult for people been successful.
- 37:01Speaker 2: That's his reason, Ditra, that's what he does.
- 37:07Speaker 13: Well.
- 37:08Speaker 16: The commentary around the capital gains tax changes is really
- 37:13Speaker 16: unprecedented because the commentary around that speaks to the government
- 37:18Speaker 16: perhaps not grandfathering the decision for people who own existing
- 37:23Speaker 16: properties and retrospectively altering the law, whether that's wiping it
- 37:29Speaker 16: all together or reducing it significantly or putting in another
- 37:33Speaker 16: tier for people who already own those properties. So that
- 37:37Speaker 16: is unprecedented that the government does that to a taxation law.
- 37:41Speaker 16: It really is actually so bold of the government and
- 37:47Speaker 16: dressing it up as intergenerational fairness. Well, I can tell you, Steve,
- 37:53Speaker 16: you might be a boomer, but I am a gen XA,
- 37:56Speaker 16: and so that's two generations there that don't think this
- 37:59Speaker 16: is very fair at all.
- 38:04Speaker 2: I spoke James at a football lunch last Saturday at
- 38:07Speaker 2: a room of about one hundred, and I said, can
- 38:09Speaker 2: anyone in here who believes that it's a good idea
- 38:13Speaker 2: to have intergenerational fairness, not one person put their hand up.
- 38:17Speaker 2: I my odd add I mean, we don't even know
- 38:20Speaker 2: what these changes are going to do. If you're a
- 38:22Speaker 2: landlord or you're a tenant, or you know, if you're
- 38:26Speaker 2: preventing people from making a quid out of buying investment properties,
- 38:30Speaker 2: what's it going to do to the amount of apartments
- 38:32Speaker 2: that people are going to invest in for people to
- 38:34Speaker 2: actually live in.
- 38:35Speaker 6: I've really struggle with this term generational intergenerational fairness as well,
- 38:39Speaker 6: because it implies that older people who have done well
- 38:43Speaker 6: have somehow morally failed and they ought to feel guilty
- 38:47Speaker 6: for their success. As for Jim Chalmers saying, oh no, no,
- 38:50Speaker 6: we're not judging people who have done well well, I'm
- 38:53Speaker 6: sure it's called comfort for them that as Jim Charmers
- 38:56Speaker 6: comes to take everything that they've earned, that he's not
- 38:59Speaker 6: judging them, so perhaps they'll feel better for that. Of course,
- 39:02Speaker 6: this is what Labour have to do. If you're going
- 39:04Speaker 6: to establish and keep building a welfare state as well
- 39:08Speaker 6: as paying off different identity groups to continue voting for you,
- 39:12Speaker 6: you've got to get money from somewhere.
- 39:14Speaker 12: So who are they going to come after.
- 39:15Speaker 6: They're going to come after those who have established wealth,
- 39:19Speaker 6: and to justify it, they'll talk about fairness. I think
- 39:22Speaker 6: most of us know that's a con but they're hoping
- 39:25Speaker 6: that that will convince people what they're doing is okay.
- 39:29Speaker 9: Well, Christy, I mean you know that.
- 39:33Speaker 2: Of course, our Prime Minister Anthony Albanzi one of his
- 39:36Speaker 2: favorite sayings is he loves to beat Tories. I mean
- 39:41Speaker 2: this is in built into this government's DNA.
- 39:46Speaker 16: Well, he's had the benefits of hard work, you know,
- 39:49Speaker 16: growing up in social housing in Sydney and progressing to
- 39:53Speaker 16: a multi million dollar mortgage on the multimillion dollar mortgage
- 39:57Speaker 16: on the Central Coast. So he has walked the trajectory
- 40:01Speaker 16: of aspirational wealth. Steve, So what you could say, perhaps
- 40:06Speaker 16: that is the category that he now falls into. And
- 40:08Speaker 16: not to mention decades of defined superannuation benefits as well,
- 40:14Speaker 16: which is.
- 40:15Speaker 13: Also on the chop.
- 40:16Speaker 16: So there's a lot of talk about your family trust
- 40:21Speaker 16: will go. We're going to start with capital gains tax.
- 40:25Speaker 16: The over sixty fives are going to see a reduction
- 40:28Speaker 16: potentially in their private health insurance rebate. That's also framed
- 40:33Speaker 16: as fairness and intergenerational equity. Small businesses are going to
- 40:39Speaker 16: be hit with payday super from the first to July,
- 40:42Speaker 16: so that's anyone who's trying to employ people. There are
- 40:45Speaker 16: a raft of changes that I think the capital gains
- 40:49Speaker 16: tax changes is just the umbrella that's taking all the
- 40:53Speaker 16: oxygen out of this. People aren't aware of the.
- 40:55Speaker 9: Other any reckon. How do you reckon?
- 40:57Speaker 2: My ninety one year old mother reacted when I told
- 40:59Speaker 2: her this week that her rebate on her private health
- 41:02Speaker 2: insurance was going to disappear. I mean, that's real into
- 41:05Speaker 2: generational fairness. She's ninety one on a full pension, never
- 41:10Speaker 2: taken the money off the government for anything, and they're saying, oh,
- 41:13Speaker 2: well you're going to have to pay more for your
- 41:15Speaker 2: private health insurance. I mean, seriously, you two. Thanks James Christy,
- 41:19Speaker 2: thank you very much. Appreciate your time very much tonight
- 41:21Speaker 2: in the upshot of this whole breaking story.
- 41:24Speaker 9: I mean, the.
- 41:26Speaker 2: Situation is changing quickly now, just quickly. I want to
- 41:29Speaker 2: again show you the vision of this activity. This is
- 41:32Speaker 2: outside Mascot Police Station in Sydney, the nearest police station
- 41:35Speaker 2: to Sydney Airport.
- 41:36Speaker 9: We've heard reports that.
- 41:37Speaker 2: One of the Isis brides, Janai Safar, She's now been
- 41:42Speaker 2: taken into custody. And this from the Sydney Morning Herald
- 41:45Speaker 2: shows Safar who was led off the plane in the
- 41:48Speaker 2: back of that vehicle. So there you go. That is
- 41:53Speaker 2: one of those Isis brides. She arrived with a child
- 41:56Speaker 2: who is not in that vehicle. We'll have some more
- 41:58Speaker 2: updates for you shortly come tonight, though Patrick Christie's is here.
- 42:02Speaker 2: The UK local elections are underway, and is PM kiirs
- 42:06Speaker 2: Starmer under every pressure he is in real trouble and
- 42:09Speaker 2: the Greens UK leader Zach Polanski's career questions question that's
- 42:14Speaker 2: up next, welcome back Toe Price with you. No movement
- 42:20Speaker 2: yet on that Australian Federal Police they are due to
- 42:23Speaker 2: have a briefing at some stage tonight Sky will cover
- 42:27Speaker 2: it live.
- 42:27Speaker 9: Of course you've got Sharry.
- 42:28Speaker 2: Markson coming up and then of course Paul Murray after that,
- 42:32Speaker 2: so at one point you'll probably see that tonight. In summary,
- 42:36Speaker 2: one of those Isis brides is at the Mascot police station.
- 42:40Speaker 2: No movement yet out of the eight children and three
- 42:43Speaker 2: women who have jetted back into Melbourne on the Qatar
- 42:46Speaker 2: air Line, let's go to the UK now, Prime Minister
- 42:48Speaker 2: Kiirs Starmer is in all sorts of trouble and he's
- 42:51Speaker 2: got a local election to look at this weekend. It's
- 42:53Speaker 2: going to be a blood bath, stuck star Kirs. Starm
- 42:58Speaker 2: again is what some people saying it is. And to
- 43:01Speaker 2: make things worse, a general secretary of a UK labor
- 43:05Speaker 2: affiliated union has now asked for him to resign. Joining
- 43:08Speaker 2: me now to discuss more starmageddon is gb News host
- 43:12Speaker 2: and Bolt Report regular Patrick Christie. Patrick, how are you?
- 43:16Speaker 2: Can I ask you before we get into this, have
- 43:19Speaker 2: you had this sixth circumstance in the UK where women
- 43:23Speaker 2: had gone to Rappa and to Syria and with ISIS fighters,
- 43:29Speaker 2: married them and had children there and you've accepted them back.
- 43:33Speaker 9: Has that happened in the UK?
- 43:36Speaker 18: So we have actually accepted back the fighters themselves. Forget
- 43:40Speaker 18: the wives were at one point incredibly high number of
- 43:45Speaker 18: returning jahades, many of whom are now wandering freely around
- 43:48Speaker 18: the London area.
- 43:49Speaker 4: But yeah, we've had some very high profile cases.
- 43:51Speaker 18: There's a lady called Shamima Bagum who was an ISIS bride.
- 43:54Speaker 4: She is reported to have helped so people.
- 43:57Speaker 18: Into their suicide vasts and been a member of the
- 44:00Speaker 18: Jahandi police over there in Syria. She's currently in a
- 44:03Speaker 18: refugee camp. There are calls to bring her back to Britain.
- 44:06Speaker 18: And actually our current Prime Minister, one of the many
- 44:09Speaker 18: reasons why he's probably about to get an absolute kicking
- 44:11Speaker 18: in the local elections today, is the kind of bloke
- 44:14Speaker 18: who would happily have given her legal advice and represented us.
- 44:17Speaker 18: So I think it's only a matter of time before
- 44:19Speaker 18: Shamima Bagum comes back to Britain.
- 44:23Speaker 2: So we've actually done this reasonably well. I mean, our
- 44:27Speaker 2: government tries to slip and slide, and so we've had
- 44:29Speaker 2: nothing to do with bringing the bag I know we
- 44:31Speaker 2: didn't give Hi passports all of that sort of stuff,
- 44:33Speaker 2: but we certainly have. I think we might have accepted
- 44:36Speaker 2: one bloke who was in ISOs and to point back
- 44:39Speaker 2: into the country, but not the numbers that you're talking about.
- 44:43Speaker 2: So tell me about Keiths Stammer. Does he survive next week?
- 44:48Speaker 18: Boy, it's hard to see how he does. He could
- 44:50Speaker 18: lose at least two thousand council seats. He didn't even
- 44:53Speaker 18: want these elections to take place. He tried to block
- 44:56Speaker 18: them because he knew he was going to get the
- 44:58Speaker 18: kind of spanking that would make fifty shades of like
- 45:00Speaker 18: a children's tea party. He's lost the unions, he's lost
- 45:03Speaker 18: the cabinet, he's locked his back bench, as he's lost
- 45:05Speaker 18: the public. I'm not even sure his own wife is
- 45:08Speaker 18: going to vote for him at this point.
- 45:09Speaker 4: He will have to go.
- 45:11Speaker 18: I think at some point the problem, of course, could
- 45:13Speaker 18: be what comes next, right because in the Labor Party,
- 45:17Speaker 18: if they moved further left then that could.
- 45:20Speaker 4: Be a big problem, especially economically for us.
- 45:23Speaker 9: Is he the worst prime minister?
- 45:24Speaker 1: You've said, Oh, it's shocking.
- 45:27Speaker 18: I mean, you can't actually get any worse. The guy's
- 45:28Speaker 18: got absolutely no instinct in such a short space of
- 45:31Speaker 18: time from going or winning a massive lun side. He's
- 45:34Speaker 18: managed to alienate pretty much every single demographic that this
- 45:37Speaker 18: country has to offer, one after the other. He is
- 45:40Speaker 18: actually genuinely the least popular prime minister we have ever had.
- 45:45Speaker 18: His approval ratings are the lowest anyone has ever seen
- 45:49Speaker 18: in this country. And it's at such a bad time
- 45:52Speaker 18: for Britain as well, where we've got so many crises
- 45:55Speaker 18: taking place here we really needed someone to help guide
- 45:58Speaker 18: us through them, not make them infinitely worse us.
- 46:02Speaker 2: Tell us a better I'll make Nigel Farage and Reform.
- 46:05Speaker 2: What are we likely to see out of these results
- 46:07Speaker 2: at the weekend? That might give him even more confidence
- 46:10Speaker 2: that potentially human and Reform could actually take control of
- 46:13Speaker 2: the country. I know your elections is a long way away,
- 46:16Speaker 2: but what does Farage take out of the weekend?
- 46:20Speaker 18: Yeah, I mean reformer predicts it to be the big winners.
- 46:22Speaker 18: Obviously got to wait and see what happens there. But
- 46:24Speaker 18: I mean if the country largely goes turquoise and they
- 46:28Speaker 18: start winning areas where they've never previously won before, then
- 46:31Speaker 18: you think that is going to have all of the
- 46:33Speaker 18: momentum in Nigel Farange's favor.
- 46:35Speaker 4: And look, basically, what it is is a ticket of.
- 46:37Speaker 18: Lower tacks, lower immigration, more deportation for illegals, being tough
- 46:42Speaker 18: on crime, and giving people an opportunity to get on
- 46:44Speaker 18: the housing land.
- 46:45Speaker 4: I mean, it's not rocket science.
- 46:46Speaker 18: Obviously, the question there is going to be can they
- 46:49Speaker 18: actually deliver that if they get into office. But at
- 46:52Speaker 18: least I think the census that we will be led
- 46:54Speaker 18: by someone who genuinely likes our country.
- 46:57Speaker 4: As opposed to a man at the moment who is
- 47:00Speaker 4: who doesn't really anything.
- 47:02Speaker 2: I've never heard of Green's leader Zach Polanski. What's he
- 47:05Speaker 2: been up to?
- 47:06Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, this guy's a Walter Mitty.
- 47:09Speaker 18: But because of his work actually hypnotizing women to make
- 47:12Speaker 18: them have bigger boobs, he's been given the nickname Walter Titty,
- 47:16Speaker 18: which is absolutely fantastic. He's changed his name. He's called
- 47:21Speaker 18: Zach Polanski, used to be called Dave. He's lied about
- 47:24Speaker 18: being a spokesperson for the Red Cross, lied about being
- 47:26Speaker 18: a fully accredited hypnotherapist, lied about where he lives, kind
- 47:30Speaker 18: of be honest about that. He might not have even
- 47:31Speaker 18: been paying council tax. This guy, honestly an absolutely remarkable story.
- 47:37Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean he actually.
- 47:38Speaker 18: Could do very very well because the Greens have teamed
- 47:41Speaker 18: up with the Muslim vote. As a sizeable Muslim population
- 47:44Speaker 18: in this country, most of them seem to be voting Green,
- 47:47Speaker 18: so that kind of left Islamo alliance.
- 47:51Speaker 1: He'd be big, he'd be big.
- 47:54Speaker 2: Fantastic, Petrick, it was a pleasure to catch up with you,
- 47:56Speaker 2: thinking about it. I'll talk to you soon well, coming
- 47:58Speaker 2: up to Cherry Max. And now just to summarize, of course,
- 48:00Speaker 2: what's happened here tonight. You've had one of the Isis
- 48:03Speaker 2: Bride's at Mascot Police Station in Sydney. Was still a
- 48:06Speaker 2: waiting to find out exactly what's going to happen with
- 48:09Speaker 2: those that have arrived into Melbourne. There are expect to
- 48:11Speaker 2: be charges laid. This story is still developing. Sharie Markson's
- 48:15Speaker 2: up next. She'll have full coverage
