- 0:01Speaker 1: Lately.
- 0:03Speaker 2: Welcome to the Late Debase.
- 0:08Speaker 3: Good evening, and welcome to the program. I'm Caleb Bond
- 0:11Speaker 3: with Liz Storer and Joe Hildebrand. Well, what happens when
- 0:14Speaker 3: gay rights activists and pro Palestinian activists meet in the street.
- 0:19Speaker 3: It's not exactly tea and biscuits. We'll show you that
- 0:22Speaker 3: later in the show when we.
- 0:24Speaker 2: Get to the papers.
- 0:24Speaker 3: The federal government has come up with an ingenious way
- 0:27Speaker 3: to get more people into the military. Will tell you
- 0:30Speaker 3: what it is. And politicians, really they should not try
- 0:34Speaker 3: to be cool.
- 0:35Speaker 2: It never works. It's always bad.
- 0:38Speaker 3: And we have for you a forty four gallon drumsworth
- 0:41Speaker 3: of cringe worthiness to show you later in the show.
- 0:45Speaker 3: But first, Anthony Fauci, of course, the former Chief Medical
- 0:48Speaker 3: Advisor to the US, best known for hits such as
- 0:51Speaker 3: I Loved the nightlife before lockdowns came to town. No
- 0:56Speaker 3: kissing in the back row of the movies because you're
- 0:58Speaker 3: wearing a mask. And then we all know that he
- 1:00Speaker 3: co wrote the song Don't Stand so Close to Me
- 1:03Speaker 3: for the police.
- 1:04Speaker 2: Well, it's turned.
- 1:05Speaker 3: Out that everything he came up with during the pandemic,
- 1:09Speaker 3: or at least a lot of it, was.
- 1:10Speaker 2: All made up.
- 1:12Speaker 3: Today US time, he is due to give testimony for
- 1:17Speaker 3: the first time since his retirement at a public inquiry
- 1:21Speaker 3: into COVID, but earlier in the year he sat down
- 1:24Speaker 3: for a two day, fourteen hour interview behind closed doors.
- 1:29Speaker 3: Well the transcript of that interview has been released, in
- 1:32Speaker 3: which he has asked some pretty pertinent questions about decisions
- 1:36Speaker 3: that were made at the time, such as, you know,
- 1:39Speaker 3: when we decided that we would have social distancing, which
- 1:42Speaker 3: in the US he decided would be six foot, was
- 1:46Speaker 3: there any basis for that? Had he read any studies
- 1:49Speaker 3: that suggested that six foot would work? He said, you know,
- 1:52Speaker 3: I don't recall. It just sort of appeared out of
- 1:55Speaker 3: thin air. Presumably he was not aware, he said, of
- 1:59Speaker 3: any status that supported the concept of social distancing, and
- 2:04Speaker 3: that it would be very difficult to conduct any such study.
- 2:08Speaker 3: He was also asked if he had followed any studies
- 2:12Speaker 3: into mask wearing on children. He said no. He paid
- 2:15Speaker 3: no attention to the impact on children that it had caused,
- 2:19Speaker 3: including that they couldn't read the words coming out of
- 2:23Speaker 3: teacher's mouths, and that that, of course had affected their
- 2:26Speaker 3: learning ability.
- 2:27Speaker 2: He had not.
- 2:28Speaker 3: Looked into whether this would be a problem before he
- 2:31Speaker 3: instituted those rules. He's even admitted that the lab leak,
- 2:36Speaker 3: which he four years ago poo pooed as a conspiracy theory,
- 2:40Speaker 3: was a possibility. Isn't it amazing how all these things
- 2:45Speaker 3: start to come undone. All these rules that we were
- 2:48Speaker 3: told we had to follow for our own safety were
- 2:51Speaker 3: not based on fact.
- 2:53Speaker 2: They were basically pulled out of thin air.
- 2:55Speaker 3: I think many people, including me, will be pulling out
- 2:58Speaker 3: the popcorn for him his testimony overnight. I suspect that
- 3:03Speaker 3: his discussions with his advisers and in his testimony tomorrow
- 3:08Speaker 3: might go something like this.
- 3:10Speaker 2: What am I going to say?
- 3:12Speaker 1: Tell them? You make him me say?
- 3:14Speaker 4: Brilliant?
- 3:16Speaker 3: Brilliant?
- 3:17Speaker 1: Is that what made Brittain great?
- 3:18Speaker 3: Hand?
- 3:19Speaker 1: Thirstfully?
- 3:20Speaker 3: And I'm so sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, but
- 3:31Speaker 3: my wife has made a mistake.
- 3:32Speaker 5: I don't know how she did, but she's made a
- 3:34Speaker 5: complete putting in the whole thing.
- 3:35Speaker 3: Is he was a little bit perfect? Right? Would say
- 3:37Speaker 3: I saw it all that, I'm faithful this im but
- 3:38Speaker 3: you know what, women and they got one break between
- 3:40Speaker 3: the lot and what not all but.
- 3:41Speaker 5: I mean something, So please do stare and see all
- 3:45Speaker 5: later on.
- 3:46Speaker 3: Thank you so much because quite frankly, what else is
- 3:50Speaker 3: he going to say? How is he going to dig
- 3:52Speaker 3: himself out of this one? Li is? I mean, you
- 3:54Speaker 3: know the blook the chief medical advisor, who you would
- 3:57Speaker 3: hope was making decisions when we're told constant during COVID
- 4:01Speaker 3: you know, or it's all based on the medical advice.
- 4:03Speaker 2: It's the medical advice, the.
- 4:05Speaker 3: Medical advice, and the medical advice it turns out, was
- 4:08Speaker 3: literally made up on the spot with no evidence whatsoever.
- 4:11Speaker 4: Trust the experts, ladies and gentlemen, Trust the experts.
- 4:17Speaker 1: Little wonder this.
- 4:17Speaker 4: Guy stepped down in December twenty two after fifty four
- 4:22Speaker 4: years of working in government. Can you imagine how many
- 4:25Speaker 4: palms you grease, how many deals behind closed doors you strike?
- 4:30Speaker 1: Four years in government? What was that show?
- 4:33Speaker 4: How bigs is, how big pension is, which this guy
- 4:37Speaker 4: is the best paid in pension terms federal employee ever.
- 4:42Speaker 4: He's stepped away with over four hundred and seventeen thousand
- 4:46Speaker 4: dollars annually.
- 4:48Speaker 1: For the rest of his life.
- 4:50Speaker 4: This is the legacy of the face of the US
- 4:53Speaker 4: COVID response. And get this, during during the pandemic, when
- 4:59Speaker 4: his views were in vogue and he was basically the
- 5:02Speaker 4: messiah of.
- 5:04Speaker 1: The US and could do no wrong.
- 5:06Speaker 4: He was more than happy to hand down these edicts
- 5:09Speaker 4: and implore us to follow the science. But this was
- 5:13Speaker 4: one of the many guys who said that the science
- 5:16Speaker 4: said that the vaccine stopped transmission.
- 5:20Speaker 1: The science is very clear on that now.
- 5:24Speaker 4: But everything he said, he was so bulshy about it
- 5:27Speaker 4: at the time, and in the succeeding years he's slowly
- 5:32Speaker 4: not taken responsibility and said I made a mistake.
- 5:36Speaker 1: I don't think you'll ever hear.
- 5:37Speaker 4: Those words come out of Fauci's mouth, But instead it's
- 5:41Speaker 4: always complete denial, like oh, he's literally said, I've never
- 5:45Speaker 4: locked down schools. I was never a party to that whatsoever.
- 5:50Speaker 4: There's zero responsibility. In my books, that's the kind of
- 5:54Speaker 4: guy he is. There's a lot of articles written about
- 5:57Speaker 4: the narcissism of this, and he's simply, in his own eyes,
- 6:02Speaker 4: ten do no wrong joke.
- 6:03Speaker 5: I think it's about more than Fauci as a man.
- 6:06Speaker 5: I think the problem is not so much that there
- 6:09Speaker 5: wasn't a sort of perfect settled science on say, social
- 6:13Speaker 5: distancing or mask wearing. Right now. I remember listening to
- 6:15Speaker 5: the radio when people were saying, no, don't wear masks
- 6:18Speaker 5: because you're more likely to fidge it with your face,
- 6:21Speaker 5: you're more likely to touch yourself as you adjust it,
- 6:23Speaker 5: and there you'refore you're more likely to transmit the disease.
- 6:25Speaker 5: And I remember someone saying, yeah, there's not really any
- 6:28Speaker 5: studies into mask wearing, whether it's effective, and things like this,
- 6:30Speaker 5: we should probably do one, And then suddenly it's wear
- 6:33Speaker 5: a mask otherwise you're killing people, and you're killing grandma
- 6:35Speaker 5: and you're a murderous psychopath. And so again, I think
- 6:40Speaker 5: if you had just said these things, if these guidelines
- 6:42Speaker 5: had been as said, Look, it's probably just common sense
- 6:45Speaker 5: that you're less likely to spread the disease, especially if
- 6:48Speaker 5: it's going through you know, if it's water borne on
- 6:51Speaker 5: you know, spittle or whatever, it's grost. But you know,
- 6:53Speaker 5: if you're two meters away from someone, you're probably less
- 6:56Speaker 5: likely to give it to them. Then if you know,
- 6:58Speaker 5: it's probably better if you wash your hands. These are
- 6:59Speaker 5: the guys like the fault. The problem was that this
- 7:01Speaker 5: kind of you know, vibe was turned into a horrendously
- 7:07Speaker 5: nasty and politically charged kind of doctrine or orthodoxy that
- 7:13Speaker 5: forced people to do things. So again, was there probably
- 7:17Speaker 5: was there a justification for some social distinct some restridents. Absolutely.
- 7:21Speaker 5: Does this mean we had to shut down schools or
- 7:23Speaker 5: children's playgrounds. Absolutely not. But because people turned this kind
- 7:27Speaker 5: of thing into a sort of almost a messianic cause,
- 7:31Speaker 5: and people were staking their virtue on it but also
- 7:35Speaker 5: staking their political capital on it and looking at how
- 7:38Speaker 5: popular it was making them. By beating back this disease
- 7:41Speaker 5: that everyone was scared of, you had this old sort
- 7:43Speaker 5: of one two trick where you terrorize people about how
- 7:47Speaker 5: deadly the disease is. Then you go even harder than
- 7:50Speaker 5: you need to over it, and people go, thank you,
- 7:53Speaker 5: dear God, thank you, dear leader for saving us from
- 7:55Speaker 5: the disease. And so it's not necessarily the fault of
- 7:59Speaker 5: an inni science. It's a fault of that being weaponized
- 8:03Speaker 5: by scared and quite frankly often ignorant people with no
- 8:08Speaker 5: sense of proportion, but also that being exploited and manipulated
- 8:12Speaker 5: by governments and public health efficients for their own standing.
- 8:16Speaker 3: Well was the point where it turned into mandate and
- 8:20Speaker 3: drive and rule, where it became a problem because you
- 8:23Speaker 3: can you can have a you can have a doctor
- 8:26Speaker 3: stand there and say we think on the balance of
- 8:28Speaker 3: probabilities that it's probably better if you don't stand so
- 8:31Speaker 3: close to someone. Fine, you can choose whether or not
- 8:34Speaker 3: you take that into account.
- 8:35Speaker 5: Stand don't someone, then you're an evil killer and you
- 8:37Speaker 5: need to be shots.
- 8:38Speaker 3: And if you don't do it, there will be a
- 8:41Speaker 3: rule to say you can be punished for doing it.
- 8:42Speaker 2: I mean, you never forget that.
- 8:44Speaker 3: Here in Australia, you know, we had people terrorized in
- 8:47Speaker 3: parks for sitting there having a cup of coffee in
- 8:50Speaker 3: the morning with no one else around them, because that
- 8:53Speaker 3: was supposedly a danger.
- 8:54Speaker 2: It was so patently stupid.
- 8:56Speaker 3: And what keeps coming to light is that these decisions
- 8:59Speaker 3: were not made on the basis of any evidence.
- 9:02Speaker 2: They were made on.
- 9:03Speaker 3: The basis of, well, maybe that's the right thing to do.
- 9:06Speaker 3: And it's fine to tell people what you think is
- 9:08Speaker 3: the right thing to do. But when you then start
- 9:10Speaker 3: saying you're going to copy fine because you were sitting
- 9:13Speaker 3: in the park at ten am having a cup of
- 9:15Speaker 3: coffee when you were literally.
- 9:16Speaker 2: Of no danger to anyone.
- 9:17Speaker 3: And by the way, there is still no evidence anywhere
- 9:19Speaker 3: in the world of transmission outdoors.
- 9:22Speaker 2: That's when it became.
- 9:23Speaker 3: A joke, and that's what people like Fauci and the
- 9:26Speaker 3: various Chief Medical offices and chief health officers in this
- 9:29Speaker 3: country allowed to happen. I mean remember in South Australia
- 9:33Speaker 3: when they went into lockdown pat football in know there
- 9:36Speaker 3: was that, But in November of twenty twenty they went
- 9:39Speaker 3: into lockdown because Nikolas Spurria thought that COVID had been
- 9:44Speaker 3: transmitted on a pizza box.
- 9:46Speaker 4: I mean, there was no.
- 9:47Speaker 5: Evidence anywhere in the whole formula where you have a
- 9:51Speaker 5: very preachy, judge, comfortable inner city progressive class telling everyone
- 9:57Speaker 5: else what they have to do for their own good,
- 10:00Speaker 5: really your own and it's the same thing. And again
- 10:02Speaker 5: I say this as someone who wants to see action
- 10:05Speaker 5: on these things, but it is just so damaged. You
- 10:07Speaker 5: see the same thing on climate change, the same thing
- 10:09Speaker 5: on COVID, this catastrophism, this certainty, and the shaming of
- 10:13Speaker 5: anyone who dares question it or who dares suggest a
- 10:16Speaker 5: more moderate approach. And then of course when a crack
- 10:20Speaker 5: appears in that certainty, when a cheek appears in that
- 10:21Speaker 5: certainty among say mask wearing or social distancing people on
- 10:25Speaker 5: the other well it's all bullshit. Then it's all rubbish,
- 10:28Speaker 5: and so they throw the baby out with the bathroot,
- 10:29Speaker 5: and some people are saying all vaccines are killing everybody
- 10:32Speaker 5: and again, so you've got an extreme position on this
- 10:35Speaker 5: side leads to the very extreme position on that side
- 10:38Speaker 5: that this light think that they're actually trying to suppress,
- 10:41Speaker 5: they're fueling it. I mean, you could write a formula
- 10:44Speaker 5: for it. It's like going after Donald Trump for paying
- 10:46Speaker 5: hush mantivers storming Daniels. The harder you go, and the
- 10:49Speaker 5: more indignant and judgy and morally pure you make yourself
- 10:54Speaker 5: out to be and morally impure you make your opponents
- 10:57Speaker 5: out to be, the more you actually make people just
- 10:59Speaker 5: look at you. We know what you're wrong. You're a wanker.
- 11:01Speaker 5: Maybe you're the one who's hysterical. Maybe you're the one
- 11:04Speaker 5: who's and fount She.
- 11:05Speaker 4: Was also responsible, because of his seniority, for demonizing any
- 11:10Speaker 4: doctors who were saying, you're asking us to choose between
- 11:14Speaker 4: never being able to practice again in giving individual advice
- 11:19Speaker 4: to individuals who we know their medical history. Very intimately,
- 11:24Speaker 4: you're asking us to choose between that. You're basically asking
- 11:27Speaker 4: us to throw our duty out the window and just
- 11:30Speaker 4: follow you come what may. There's also the issue of
- 11:34Speaker 4: the gain of function research, which throughout his career he'd
- 11:38Speaker 4: been a very big advocate for public funding of gain
- 11:41Speaker 4: of function research, and everyone was told, oh, no, the
- 11:44Speaker 4: US hasn't got any publicly funded gain of function research
- 11:48Speaker 4: happening in Wohnt.
- 11:49Speaker 1: Yes they did.
- 11:51Speaker 4: That's another thing that everyone knows now it's rather common
- 11:54Speaker 4: of fact. But again, who was one of the biggest
- 11:57Speaker 4: cheerleaders saying oh no, nothing just here when it is
- 12:01Speaker 4: inconceivable that he didn't know that, Yes, there was some
- 12:06Speaker 4: US funded Now I'm not saying they were involved in COVID,
- 12:10Speaker 4: but this manipulation.
- 12:12Speaker 5: When you say something with absolute authority and say that
- 12:15Speaker 5: anyone who dares suggest otherwise is a liar or malevolent
- 12:19Speaker 5: or evil or stupid, and then suddenly one little thing,
- 12:22Speaker 5: I mean, it's probably completely benign the game and function
- 12:25Speaker 5: stuff they were doing, or funding.
- 12:26Speaker 1: The gain of function. My definition is not benign. Is
- 12:30Speaker 1: the manipulation of.
- 12:32Speaker 4: Virus not to make them even more deadly and more transmissible.
- 12:36Speaker 5: That is the may not get it may not have
- 12:38Speaker 5: been the cause of COVID, It may not actually have
- 12:40Speaker 5: been the result of COVID. We don't know.
- 12:42Speaker 1: I'm not insinuated.
- 12:43Speaker 5: But the point the point. The point is once a
- 12:45Speaker 5: little again, once a cheek in the armor, like that,
- 12:48Speaker 5: if you if instead of just being honest with people
- 12:50Speaker 5: and saying, listen, this is what we think is probably
- 12:52Speaker 5: the best thing to do. Use your common sense, you know,
- 12:56Speaker 5: protect yourself as much you can. Here is the best
- 12:57Speaker 5: advice if you give. Once you go from that to
- 13:00Speaker 5: saying if you do not do this, you are evil
- 13:02Speaker 5: or stupid or selfish, and then suddenly a chink in
- 13:06Speaker 5: that armor appears, so a little bit of uncertainly peers.
- 13:09Speaker 5: Suddenly people like your good self or others are completely
- 13:12Speaker 5: within their rights. And then say, well, if you lied
- 13:15Speaker 5: about this, and you told us that this was a
- 13:17Speaker 5: matter of life and death, then who's to say you're
- 13:19Speaker 5: not lying about all the other stuff. And so they
- 13:21Speaker 5: end up just kicking over their own house of cards.
- 13:24Speaker 3: And if only we would have a royal commission into
- 13:27Speaker 3: all of this here, I mean, you know, we.
- 13:28Speaker 2: Were promised, if only, and the best.
- 13:30Speaker 3: We've had is some you know, weakers piss investigation where
- 13:34Speaker 3: the premiers aren't even forced it to.
- 13:36Speaker 5: There will be a release of the teams of documents
- 13:39Speaker 5: as calling the latest decision in Victoria the admissive decisions.
- 13:43Speaker 5: Tribunal I think it is has actually said, no, you
- 13:45Speaker 5: have to hand over all the advice, you have to
- 13:47Speaker 5: hand over all.
- 13:48Speaker 1: Oh glory, so.
- 13:50Speaker 5: Truth and nail.
- 13:51Speaker 1: We can't wait.
- 13:52Speaker 4: Let's no one holds your breath for them to deliver
- 13:56Speaker 4: on that.
- 13:56Speaker 1: But we all know that.
- 13:58Speaker 4: Certainly most of you watching would be sick to death
- 14:01Speaker 4: of welcome to countries. Well, the Department of Justice and
- 14:05Speaker 4: Attorney General decided to take this to a whole new level. Recently,
- 14:10Speaker 4: were bureaucrats working at one William Street during a welcome
- 14:14Speaker 4: to country and an awards ceremony were asked to remove
- 14:18Speaker 4: their shoes and wiggle their toes, close their eyes so
- 14:23Speaker 4: they would.
- 14:24Speaker 1: Feel more connected to the earth.
- 14:28Speaker 4: My first question upon reading this was were they even
- 14:30Speaker 4: outside or were they asked to do this? Because it's
- 14:33Speaker 4: an award ceremony Unless you're outside, that doesn't even make
- 14:37Speaker 4: any sense.
- 14:38Speaker 5: What about and die Hard? When John mcclan takes his
- 14:42Speaker 5: shoes off so we can scrunch up, helps him, helps him?
- 14:47Speaker 5: We could we could have an entire army of bureaucrats
- 14:50Speaker 5: who were finally in June to fighting terrorists with submachine guns.
- 14:55Speaker 1: Because they've done daily ground.
- 14:56Speaker 5: Crunched up the carpet and skyscraper under their little But they.
- 15:00Speaker 3: Keep coming up with new ideas every day, new wig.
- 15:04Speaker 3: Is it more to kill welcomes to country? I mean,
- 15:07Speaker 3: last week we told you the story about a bloke
- 15:09Speaker 3: who went to a job interview and was subjected to
- 15:12Speaker 3: either a welcome or acknowledgment of country. Now we find
- 15:15Speaker 3: out that at an award ceremony with all these public
- 15:18Speaker 3: servants that they've got to take their shoes off. I mean,
- 15:21Speaker 3: I could think of nothing more that would turn me
- 15:23Speaker 3: off the idea of a welcome to country than all
- 15:26Speaker 3: of my colleagues taking off their smelly shoes to unfool
- 15:29Speaker 3: their smelly feet, to wiggle their toes around of it.
- 15:35Speaker 4: I want to know how many browbeaten bureaucrats were like, well,
- 15:40Speaker 4: I guess we got to or whether wether the the
- 15:44Speaker 4: unspoken agreement as they looked at each other was like yeah,
- 15:49Speaker 4: because they were asked to.
- 15:51Speaker 5: It's kind of like they're taking the knee thing. It's
- 15:53Speaker 5: kind of like and again it's that kind of collective show,
- 15:55Speaker 5: like if you don't do this, you must be a
- 15:57Speaker 5: racist or you must hate We've we've got to get
- 16:00Speaker 5: to the bottom of this thank you for a mining
- 16:02Speaker 5: mehab because I know we talked about the guy who
- 16:04Speaker 5: got the welcomed country of the job in the country
- 16:07Speaker 5: at the job interview. Does that mean if he didn't
- 16:10Speaker 5: get the job, he's not welcome in the country.
- 16:13Speaker 2: Ooh, that's a very good point. That is a very good.
- 16:17Speaker 5: Surely, if it's a welcome to country, if you're doing it,
- 16:19Speaker 5: you're saying, well, well, welcomed me here, part of the
- 16:23Speaker 5: you're part of the family.
- 16:24Speaker 2: You're not welcome anymore anyway.
- 16:25Speaker 3: I think what we've learn is taking your shoes off
- 16:28Speaker 3: to solve racism. Perhaps will pass that one onto Laura
- 16:32Speaker 3: Tingle while we're in Queensland, because that was an event
- 16:35Speaker 3: in Queensland. A large tract of Queensland has now been
- 16:39Speaker 3: given over to the local Aboriginal population, or a portion
- 16:42Speaker 3: of them anyway, through native title. We're talking about seven
- 16:46Speaker 3: eight hundred square kilometers worth of land that stretches its
- 16:50Speaker 3: way towards rock Hampton and it's the Barada Cabal Bara
- 16:55Speaker 3: Yetti Malara people. And I'm sorry if I didn't pronounce
- 16:58Speaker 3: that correctly, but they and given native title over this
- 17:01Speaker 3: land through the Federal court. This month after a ten
- 17:06Speaker 3: year fight. Now, of course, what happens with native title
- 17:09Speaker 3: is someone makes an application claiming that they have an
- 17:13Speaker 3: ancestral connection to this land.
- 17:15Speaker 2: In this case, it's a small.
- 17:17Speaker 3: Group of people who have traced their ancestry back to
- 17:20Speaker 3: five people who they say were on the land at
- 17:23Speaker 3: this time, and that then gives them the rights to
- 17:25Speaker 3: perform certain ceremonies and have certain use of the land.
- 17:28Speaker 3: They don't have freehold access to land, of course, under
- 17:32Speaker 3: native title, but what it does give them is the
- 17:34Speaker 3: ability to camp on the land. It gives them the
- 17:37Speaker 3: ability to hunt on the land, and of course it
- 17:40Speaker 3: allows them to make money off the land, and this
- 17:43Speaker 3: is where it becomes important. They can't use it for
- 17:46Speaker 3: commercial purposes. But what happens now is you have these
- 17:50Speaker 3: Aboriginal land corporations set up and they then deal with
- 17:55Speaker 3: government outfits and electricity companies and whatever when they look
- 18:00Speaker 3: to do any kind of work on the land. And
- 18:02Speaker 3: we've seen a few examples of this out of South Australia,
- 18:05Speaker 3: particularly the Barangala people, who of course were successful in
- 18:09Speaker 3: scuppering a nuclear waste dump near Kimber because they had
- 18:13Speaker 3: so much money in the bank that they were able
- 18:16Speaker 3: to go off to the court and fight it. Now
- 18:18Speaker 3: they're also fighting against a desalination plant because they say
- 18:22Speaker 3: the place where it will go will interrupt some old
- 18:25Speaker 3: fish traps in the water. And the way these land
- 18:28Speaker 3: corporations make their money is by doing deals with big business,
- 18:33Speaker 3: particularly electricity companies and mining companies that want to do
- 18:37Speaker 3: stuff on the land. You know, they do cultural studies
- 18:40Speaker 3: and they advise them on where they should or should
- 18:43Speaker 3: not go, and for that they get millions and millions
- 18:45Speaker 3: of dollars. So through native title they actually build up
- 18:50Speaker 3: a big bank by which they can start dictating to
- 18:53Speaker 3: government and everyone else what they should and should not
- 18:56Speaker 3: be allowed to do.
- 18:57Speaker 2: I have no issue with.
- 18:58Speaker 3: Saying, sure, come through and hunt on the land. I
- 19:01Speaker 3: particularly couldn't give a toss. But when it starts turning
- 19:04Speaker 3: into a venture that allows these land corporations that operate
- 19:08Speaker 3: under different corporate law to the rest of corporate Australia.
- 19:12Speaker 3: And if you go through and read some of their
- 19:14Speaker 3: annual report, it's a bit murky as to where they
- 19:17Speaker 3: are where the money goes.
- 19:19Speaker 2: But they have real power now because of these.
- 19:23Speaker 5: I had absolutely no problem with this whatsoever. As you say,
- 19:26Speaker 5: there are often question marks over exactly how that money
- 19:29Speaker 5: is spent and who it goes to. And there's often
- 19:31Speaker 5: competing voices in the community, as often competing elders. So
- 19:35Speaker 5: for example, there might be a bunch of people and
- 19:37Speaker 5: you see this often with you know, Twiggy Forest minds.
- 19:39Speaker 5: Quite famously, we have a bunch of Averaginal people who
- 19:42Speaker 5: definitely want the mind to go ahead because they want
- 19:44Speaker 5: the jobs that go with it and the betterment that
- 19:46Speaker 5: go with it. And you have Aboriginal businesses that are
- 19:48Speaker 5: often prioritized and these projects they should be. And that's
- 19:52Speaker 5: good because we want to do things like tackle Indigenous
- 19:55Speaker 5: employment and tackle Indigenous education, make sure that these guys,
- 19:58Speaker 5: you know, have as much a strong future here as
- 20:00Speaker 5: the rest of us. So often often you know, Indigenous
- 20:04Speaker 5: people aren't just one sort of homogeneous thing, will think
- 20:07Speaker 5: the same way. We know that and again sometime, look,
- 20:11Speaker 5: we all know there were things like, you know, the
- 20:14Speaker 5: ridiculousness of the secret women's business decades ago.
- 20:17Speaker 2: That stopped the hind Marsh Island.
- 20:19Speaker 5: We've been built to hein Marsh Island. But if it's
- 20:22Speaker 5: if it's legit, and if it's actually doing it, I
- 20:24Speaker 5: have no problem whatsoever you've got You know often you
- 20:27Speaker 5: know big mining companies or energy companies making it absolute
- 20:30Speaker 5: matza out of this land. It has been their land
- 20:32Speaker 5: before we came along. If they're taking it, and if
- 20:35Speaker 5: they're using that money, and if they're being reasonable and
- 20:37Speaker 5: using that money for the betterment of their people, I
- 20:39Speaker 5: have no problem with it whatsoever.
- 20:41Speaker 2: But we don't have approve.
- 20:42Speaker 4: How much of Queensland isn't native title now, because I
- 20:46Speaker 4: still remember reading a ministerial media whatever they put out
- 20:53Speaker 4: by Scott Stewart, who was the Minister of Resources back
- 20:56Speaker 4: in July twenty one for Queensland, saying veryly that now
- 21:01Speaker 4: one third of Queensland was recognized as native title, and
- 21:05Speaker 4: I remember thinking at the time, gee, whiz okay, that's
- 21:08Speaker 4: a fair whack. Now we're talking about another chunk. And
- 21:13Speaker 4: I don't know how much has happened in between that,
- 21:16Speaker 4: but we are now talking about ginormous packages of land.
- 21:20Speaker 4: Check Out this map of the entire nation which is
- 21:24Speaker 4: on the government's website. This is the native title state
- 21:28Speaker 4: of play ten years ago. They haven't gotten updated one
- 21:33Speaker 4: on their website. Why is that government, mister transparency so blue?
- 21:39Speaker 4: It islaments, the claimant native title is approved, the dark
- 21:45Speaker 4: green is sorry, the blue is there. There's claims in place,
- 21:50Speaker 4: So who knows what that looks like now because ten.
- 21:52Speaker 1: Years ago those claims are in place.
- 21:55Speaker 4: The dark green that is exclusive natal Native title r.
- 22:00Speaker 4: The pale green is non exclusive natal Native title territory.
- 22:06Speaker 4: So when we talk about native title and we talk
- 22:09Speaker 4: about these parcels of land now being recognized as a
- 22:13Speaker 4: native title, I always just remember this map because there's already.
- 22:17Speaker 5: Affect none of those I just told you.
- 22:21Speaker 1: Affecting our lives. We've got a decil in.
- 22:24Speaker 5: Terms of people are having in terms of people have
- 22:26Speaker 5: a millions waste of square kilometers who want to develop
- 22:29Speaker 5: it or want to use it for mining or agriculture
- 22:31Speaker 5: or whatever. Yes, they have to go.
- 22:33Speaker 1: How it affecting our lives. You just heard how it's
- 22:36Speaker 1: affecting our lives.
- 22:38Speaker 4: Nation building projects are getting scuppered because a handful of
- 22:42Speaker 4: Indigenous Australians are saying no, you don't like it.
- 22:45Speaker 5: So it seems like this get contested all the time.
- 22:47Speaker 5: There's a decl nation plant that was proposed for Sydney
- 22:49Speaker 5: that Penny people opposed that it wasn't indigenous people. It was
- 22:52Speaker 5: everyone else.
- 22:53Speaker 4: Well, this is a rather no, because in the case
- 22:55Speaker 4: of the nuclear dumping Campbell, wasn't.
- 22:57Speaker 2: It kim Kimber.
- 22:59Speaker 1: My apology I need.
- 23:02Speaker 2: Campus people of Kimber.
- 23:04Speaker 1: Literally went to a vote.
- 23:06Speaker 4: Over sixty percent of them said yes, we want this
- 23:09Speaker 4: nuclear waste dump. It'll bring us jobs, et cetera, and
- 23:12Speaker 4: so on. The Bongala people who got that scuppered weren't
- 23:17Speaker 4: included in the vote because.
- 23:18Speaker 1: They didn't live there.
- 23:19Speaker 4: They were actually just reaching far too a thingle to
- 23:23Speaker 4: be like this thing in Kimber.
- 23:25Speaker 5: There are plenty of There are plenty of people. There
- 23:27Speaker 5: are plenty of residents action groups that as wide as
- 23:29Speaker 5: the driven snow, that oppose everything, including you know, it's
- 23:31Speaker 5: half the reason we've got a housing shortage, about plenty
- 23:38Speaker 5: of mosques opposing plenty of nuclear reactors power. And I
- 23:42Speaker 5: think just to single out one particular group across the
- 23:45Speaker 5: entire nation.
- 23:47Speaker 2: But I can.
- 23:47Speaker 3: I can go off and start, and you know, let's
- 23:50Speaker 3: use my example. I live in the inner West of
- 23:52Speaker 3: Sydney amongst all the lefties. So I don't think my
- 23:54Speaker 3: residence group's going to get much support, but I can
- 23:56Speaker 3: start the Inner West action group or whatever it might be.
- 24:00Speaker 3: But I can't just go around making money out of
- 24:02Speaker 3: surveys that have been done on the land, because you know,
- 24:05Speaker 3: I only have the patch of land that I live in, whereas,
- 24:08Speaker 3: of course with native title, they get vast tracts of
- 24:10Speaker 3: land from which they are being able to make money
- 24:13Speaker 3: that flows into They didn't live on it.
- 24:17Speaker 2: They weren't there years ago, were they.
- 24:20Speaker 3: Well sure, I mean my ancestors lived on land near
- 24:23Speaker 3: gaul Or in South Australia.
- 24:24Speaker 2: But I don't have any claims to.
- 24:26Speaker 5: That land, to it. But this is land that your parents,
- 24:29Speaker 5: land that your parents had would come down to You
- 24:32Speaker 5: understand that the land gets bequeathed down the generations, right,
- 24:36Speaker 5: you have a will, you might get your parents house
- 24:38Speaker 5: when they pass on, you might give your house to
- 24:40Speaker 5: them down the track. You know how that works, right, So.
- 24:43Speaker 1: It's a very different system.
- 24:45Speaker 5: But sure, so you know that like terror nullius no
- 24:49Speaker 5: longer applies. But they had the land, but we have come.
- 24:54Speaker 3: But you're suggesting that from that point onwards that Aboriginal
- 24:57Speaker 3: people have been removed from the ability to gain freehold
- 25:00Speaker 3: old land.
- 25:00Speaker 5: They haven't, no, but they have been removed from the
- 25:03Speaker 5: land that they lived on.
- 25:05Speaker 3: But what do you think haven't in every other country
- 25:07Speaker 3: on the face of the planet when.
- 25:09Speaker 5: All data Title says is all right, you just have
- 25:13Speaker 5: to consult these people on these things. And yes, sometimes
- 25:16Speaker 5: money changes hands, or sometimes people want projects to go ahead.
- 25:19Speaker 5: Sometimes they don't want projects to go ahead. It's not
- 25:20Speaker 5: a cookie cutter approach where they're just blocking everything. And
- 25:23Speaker 5: usually when they're blocking something that everyone else wants, it
- 25:26Speaker 5: gets called out and it gets found out. And that's
- 25:28Speaker 5: why you have things like the hind Marsh Bridge, or
- 25:31Speaker 5: like the nuclear dump site. I guarantee you there'll be
- 25:33Speaker 5: plenty of non Indigenous people who wouldn't want a nuclear
- 25:36Speaker 5: dump site anywhere near their looks.
- 25:38Speaker 4: The majority small handful of people who by.
- 25:41Speaker 2: Virtue have a four handful of blocking.
- 25:45Speaker 5: Look at Western City Airport. Look at Western City Airport.
- 25:49Speaker 5: It took seventy years to get off the ground.
- 25:51Speaker 1: Because all hands talking about.
- 25:54Speaker 5: People complaining about aircraft in.
- 25:56Speaker 1: The past come bearable. And you know it, that was
- 26:01Speaker 1: not of Native title. That's a pile of people saying.
- 26:05Speaker 5: I don't want to pile.
- 26:08Speaker 1: They are valid concerns.
- 26:10Speaker 4: Everyone's I don't want the value of my house because
- 26:15Speaker 4: I'm in the flight path being being made.
- 26:18Speaker 5: We should have blocked the airport from people who bought
- 26:21Speaker 5: their house thereafter already been zoned for an airport. But
- 26:24Speaker 5: we should not even consult with people have lived on
- 26:27Speaker 5: the land.
- 26:31Speaker 4: They have never this generation of Asis have never lived
- 26:36Speaker 4: on the land in the way that you're describing. As
- 26:38Speaker 4: far as I'm concerned, and as far as many Aussies
- 26:41Speaker 4: are concerned, they have no more claims to land.
- 26:44Speaker 5: Then you don't.
- 26:46Speaker 1: You can still say that.
- 26:49Speaker 2: But they're not living in the communities, Joe. You know that.
- 26:52Speaker 3: And the people who were you talking about that, the
- 26:55Speaker 3: people who end up in charge of these Aboriginal land
- 26:57Speaker 3: corporations that then rather they don't.
- 27:01Speaker 2: I didn't say none of them, not all of them
- 27:02Speaker 2: live in the community.
- 27:03Speaker 3: You know that most of them, dear anyway, Let's move
- 27:09Speaker 3: on to Pride Month in the US. If you weren't aware,
- 27:12Speaker 3: incase you probably are aware, because it's a bit hard
- 27:15Speaker 3: not to take note as June is set aside in
- 27:18Speaker 3: its entirety for Pride Month, and we know how much
- 27:21Speaker 3: time everyone else gets.
- 27:22Speaker 2: Usually get a day.
- 27:24Speaker 3: If you're very lucky, you'll get a week, But if
- 27:26Speaker 3: you are LGBTQ plus whatever you might want to add
- 27:29Speaker 3: on the end, you get an entire month, and they've
- 27:32Speaker 3: kicked off in the US with the Navy. Of course,
- 27:35Speaker 3: there's nothing else to worry about in the US at
- 27:37Speaker 3: the moment. There's no rising China, nothing else with which
- 27:41Speaker 3: they should be concerned. They have joined in, of course,
- 27:43Speaker 3: the chorus of virtue signaling that unfurls at this time.
- 27:47Speaker 2: Of year every year.
- 27:49Speaker 3: Take a look at this post here from the Navy
- 27:52Speaker 3: Seals talking up how important this time of year is,
- 27:56Speaker 3: you know, a dignity, service, spector quality.
- 28:01Speaker 2: On and on it goes. It staggers me.
- 28:06Speaker 3: Every corporate outfit, nearly every corporate outfit in the world
- 28:10Speaker 3: this time of year decides that they're going to slap
- 28:13Speaker 3: something on their Facebook page or slap something on their
- 28:16Speaker 3: Twitter page right and say.
- 28:18Speaker 2: Oh, look at us.
- 28:19Speaker 3: You know, we're all on board with lgbt isn't it lovely?
- 28:23Speaker 3: It's all about pride. If you go and check their
- 28:26Speaker 3: pages over in the Middle East. Of course, the Navy
- 28:28Speaker 3: Seals don't have a page over in the Middle East,
- 28:30Speaker 3: but you go and check all these businesses and their
- 28:32Speaker 3: stuff in the Middle East. There's no mention of pride
- 28:35Speaker 3: anywhere is the It is the ultimate corporate It's the
- 28:39Speaker 3: ultimate corporate virtue signaling, and it means absolutely nothing.
- 28:45Speaker 2: I mean and no wonder.
- 28:45Speaker 3: We talked about this on the showdown last night, Joe,
- 28:48Speaker 3: But I mean, no wonder. People don't want to sign
- 28:50Speaker 3: up to the military. And we'll get to that in
- 28:52Speaker 3: the papers as well a bit later. When you know,
- 28:54Speaker 3: I think I'm going off to defend my country. No,
- 28:57Speaker 3: We're actually going to talk about pride.
- 28:58Speaker 2: Isn't that?
- 28:59Speaker 1: Forever?
- 29:00Speaker 4: Everyone in America this meme that you're about to seize
- 29:03Speaker 4: an accurate depiction of their life during the month of June.
- 29:08Speaker 1: They just want to go about their lives and they
- 29:11Speaker 1: have this Can we get that meme up?
- 29:12Speaker 4: They have this propaganda basically funneled down their necks every
- 29:18Speaker 4: single day.
- 29:19Speaker 1: Oh that's not the one I had in mind.
- 29:21Speaker 5: New South Wales also stood for naval special warfare.
- 29:25Speaker 3: I know.
- 29:29Speaker 4: But of course this came to a head when pro
- 29:33Speaker 4: Palestinian protesters clashed with a Pride parade, in which we
- 29:38Speaker 4: see a wonderful example of the left eating itself because
- 29:43Speaker 4: I think my issue is more important than yours, and
- 29:46Speaker 4: you think your issue is more important than mine.
- 29:49Speaker 1: Here's a little bit of how it went down.
- 30:13Speaker 4: But Queers for Palestine right, So I would have thought
- 30:17Speaker 4: it would have just turned into an even bigger party.
- 30:20Speaker 4: Here's a little clip of a fellow in Palestine. It's
- 30:24Speaker 4: actually longer than this, but we got it down to
- 30:26Speaker 4: just one.
- 30:27Speaker 1: For you being us Queer's for Palestine. Are you happy
- 30:30Speaker 1: for their support?
- 30:33Speaker 2: Adam Palestine like you.
- 30:40Speaker 1: Against that totally?
- 30:42Speaker 3: Why why don't you need the support?
- 30:48Speaker 1: But I'm.
- 30:51Speaker 4: Madame Pales, but I'm he said that was to say
- 30:59Speaker 4: it is against for general being engaged. Maybe we should
- 31:06Speaker 4: show that to Quiz for Palestine and see how much
- 31:09Speaker 4: their support fares in the face of that. But here's
- 31:11Speaker 4: the mem I was trying to get up earlier, of people.
- 31:14Speaker 1: Just trying to live their lives, try to go about
- 31:16Speaker 1: their business.
- 31:17Speaker 4: And as you and I know, when Marti Gras is
- 31:20Speaker 4: in town, it's a little bit similar. There is absolutely
- 31:23Speaker 4: no way of going about your everyday life without having
- 31:26Speaker 4: some sort of LGBTI propaganda shoved down your throat, even
- 31:30Speaker 4: if you just ventured out for a cough.
- 31:32Speaker 3: I mean, at least Marti Gras is a one night event,
- 31:34Speaker 3: and I know it sort of morphs out into a week.
- 31:36Speaker 3: But I mean, seriously, why do you need an entire
- 31:39Speaker 3: month for Pride? When we talked about the Navy Seals before,
- 31:42Speaker 3: I mean, you know here in Australia, if you're in
- 31:45Speaker 3: the military, you get Anzac Day and you get Remembrance Day.
- 31:49Speaker 3: But you know, if you gay, you get a full month.
- 31:53Speaker 3: Why do you need an entire month for Pride?
- 31:55Speaker 2: Why can't you just have you one day?
- 31:58Speaker 5: Maybe they get it done. You know, you got to
- 32:00Speaker 5: think about, Hey, look what you're gonna do. You're gonna
- 32:02Speaker 5: tell where you're going to go, what you're going to order.
- 32:03Speaker 5: Come on, it's a party. You got to relax, Oh,
- 32:05Speaker 5: come on it.
- 32:06Speaker 2: But it's just out of control. And have a look
- 32:08Speaker 2: at this out of Orlando. This is a hotel.
- 32:11Speaker 3: The hotel had been hired out for an event for
- 32:14Speaker 3: Pride month. And if we've got a photo here, I
- 32:18Speaker 3: think of this teddy Bear bondage themed teddy Bear that
- 32:22Speaker 3: was shown out the front of the hotel.
- 32:25Speaker 2: We don't have a photo of it, sorry, but it
- 32:26Speaker 2: was just the whole thing.
- 32:28Speaker 3: Well, put it this way, put it this way.
- 32:31Speaker 2: It's a peak.
- 32:32Speaker 3: It is a pink to purple inflatable teddy bear that
- 32:36Speaker 3: would be about ten to eleven foot high with a
- 32:39Speaker 3: ball gag in its mouth and bondage gear on.
- 32:42Speaker 2: Right now, I looked at this well.
- 32:45Speaker 3: I didn't have to look at it for very long
- 32:47Speaker 3: to gather what was on it.
- 32:48Speaker 2: But now the hotel, it didn't speak for itself the hotel.
- 32:55Speaker 2: The hotel received complaints and they took it down. What
- 32:58Speaker 2: is surprise?
- 33:00Speaker 3: Why even do that in the first place. I've always said,
- 33:04Speaker 3: what you do in the bedroom is none of my business.
- 33:07Speaker 3: Keep the government out of the bedroom, and that's exactly
- 33:09Speaker 3: how it should be.
- 33:10Speaker 2: But the bedroom is no longer in the bedroom. The
- 33:12Speaker 2: bedroom is everywhere for these kinds.
- 33:15Speaker 1: Of things, and it raises a lot of questions.
- 33:18Speaker 4: Remember just last year we had some similar graffiti put
- 33:22Speaker 4: up here in Sydney of I think it was also
- 33:26Speaker 4: a teddy bear wearing bondage, and some legend went out
- 33:30Speaker 4: there and painted over it. Liz saw a condoned graffiti
- 33:34Speaker 4: right there, and I said on air, how great I
- 33:38Speaker 4: thought that was. That I got several dms from people
- 33:41Speaker 4: being like, oh, you liked my works, did you? Because
- 33:45Speaker 4: when you're right, when it comes out of the bedroom
- 33:48Speaker 4: and is flagrantly, especially using a Teddy bear, which again
- 33:53Speaker 4: that's recognized as something kids gravitate towards, not question about.
- 34:01Speaker 1: None of us want to know it's not that later show.
- 34:04Speaker 5: Joe to be Bears, not Gilligans. There are no kids there,
- 34:09Speaker 5: I can.
- 34:09Speaker 4: Promise with that far more important matters now, Bill Shorten
- 34:14Speaker 4: has decided. Although he says it wasn't his decision to
- 34:18Speaker 4: have a speech writer being paid three hundred thousand dollars
- 34:23Speaker 4: a year, this is more than most sitting MPs. Their
- 34:28Speaker 4: base salary doesn't come near that, but he is him saying, yeah, look,
- 34:33Speaker 4: it wasn't even my decision.
- 34:35Speaker 1: I just ended up with this guy. What am I
- 34:38Speaker 1: supposed to do about it?
- 34:41Speaker 6: I think that service the hiring of a speech writer
- 34:45Speaker 6: was done by Service Australia. I had no idea what
- 34:47Speaker 6: the payment was, so if you're trying to link me
- 34:50Speaker 6: to that, you know, good luck. The point about it
- 34:52Speaker 6: is the person involved is a speechwriter does a very
- 34:55Speaker 6: good job. I'm not responsible for negotiating a contract.
- 34:59Speaker 1: We would hope he does a very good job.
- 35:01Speaker 4: Although your speech is don't quite reflect that.
- 35:04Speaker 1: What do they should be guilted with gold? Right now?
- 35:08Speaker 4: Also, this excuse of oh I didn't know, he was
- 35:10Speaker 4: just handed to me.
- 35:11Speaker 1: How was I supposed to know?
- 35:13Speaker 4: Yeah, well, now you're aware, you're not going to do
- 35:15Speaker 4: anything about it. This is the minister responsible for welfare
- 35:20Speaker 4: in this country.
- 35:20Speaker 1: That's essentially what he looks at.
- 35:22Speaker 7: After that, here he is while Australia suffers and groans
- 35:26Speaker 7: underneath the cost of living crisis that is putting the
- 35:30Speaker 7: middle class and everybody else underneath, to bringing them to
- 35:35Speaker 7: their knees, and he was all.
- 35:37Speaker 3: Like, hah, well he's also he's also the main responsible for,
- 35:42Speaker 3: of course cutting the waist out of the nda IS.
- 35:44Speaker 3: But before very good, before Julian Stewart writes into complain
- 35:48Speaker 3: that you've missed jin her.
- 35:50Speaker 2: She she is a woman.
- 35:54Speaker 3: Before before she went off to work for Services Australia
- 35:58Speaker 3: on three hundred thousand dollars a year, which like, if
- 36:00Speaker 3: you're a staff or a speech writers as a political staff,
- 36:03Speaker 3: you'd been on about one hundred and forty at the
- 36:06Speaker 3: good end of things, so three hundred is pretty good going.
- 36:08Speaker 3: But before going to Services Australia, Missus Stewart was a
- 36:12Speaker 3: speech writer to Alan Joyce at Quantas, so I'm not
- 36:17Speaker 3: sure how good an endurance and was then a speech
- 36:21Speaker 3: right to the vice Chancellor of University of New South Wales. Now,
- 36:25Speaker 3: I can't blame her for taking to three hundred thousand
- 36:28Speaker 3: dollars a year.
- 36:29Speaker 5: I understand she's not Bill Shorton's speech right, sure, but
- 36:32Speaker 5: she is a woman. She is not Bill short and
- 36:34Speaker 5: speech right. She's not employed, she.
- 36:35Speaker 3: Is not in his she's not employed in his office.
- 36:37Speaker 3: But part of her job description is to write speeches
- 36:40Speaker 3: for Bill Shorten.
- 36:41Speaker 5: Yes, but he clearly had no idea who she was,
- 36:44Speaker 5: or why she'd been hired, or that she'd been hired,
- 36:46Speaker 5: or how much you'd been hired for. So obviously, when
- 36:48Speaker 5: you are a minister, you have departmental the aison officers,
- 36:51Speaker 5: so you have people in your office who either are
- 36:54Speaker 5: from the department to give you advice what they know
- 36:57Speaker 5: based on being a public service, so they're non political, right,
- 37:00Speaker 5: And you have people who, of course these services you
- 37:03Speaker 5: can call upon if you want them, but they are
- 37:05Speaker 5: not your staff. So he did not hire this speech writer,
- 37:08Speaker 5: and indeed, if you had to hired a speech wrider
- 37:09Speaker 5: would have been made. Well.
- 37:11Speaker 3: Look, I think there is one question on many people's
- 37:14Speaker 3: lifts and art, that is who leaked this story. Therein
- 37:17Speaker 3: might lie some interesting bits and pieces. After the break
- 37:20Speaker 3: we'll get into the papers. We'll talk about the ingenious
- 37:23Speaker 3: idea from the federal government to get people into the military.
- 37:26Speaker 2: They just won't be Australian that. After the break.
- 37:31Speaker 3: Radio, let's get into the papers, starting with the Courier
- 37:34Speaker 3: Mail tomorrow, where they say exclusive ADF's plans to fix
- 37:38Speaker 3: recruitment crisis. An army of foreigners, foreign citizens, including New
- 37:43Speaker 3: Zealanders presumably ones that Andrew Charles has had no connection to,
- 37:47Speaker 3: and permanent residents from the UK, US, Canada and Pacific
- 37:51Speaker 3: Island nations will be able to join the Australian Defense
- 37:54Speaker 3: Force in a move to tackle the nation's military recruitment crisis.
- 38:00Speaker 3: They've got to do something, I suppose to try and
- 38:02Speaker 3: get people involved. But as we were talking about last night,
- 38:06Speaker 3: I think part of the problem is that people don't
- 38:10Speaker 3: want to defend their country because they've been told that
- 38:13Speaker 3: there isn't much here worth defending, so why would you
- 38:16Speaker 3: sign up in the first place. The population is far
- 38:19Speaker 3: greater than it used to be, and yet we struggle
- 38:21Speaker 3: to get enough people to fill spots in the military.
- 38:24Speaker 1: And to their six point plan that they rolled out
- 38:27Speaker 1: last year.
- 38:28Speaker 2: We come on, we'bout six point plan.
- 38:32Speaker 5: It's popular.
- 38:33Speaker 1: Well.
- 38:33Speaker 4: As of January first, the ADF is seven percent, well
- 38:38Speaker 4: over four three hundred people short of their authorized strength,
- 38:43Speaker 4: which is something like six just over sixty five thousand.
- 38:47Speaker 4: So clearly nothing's worked. This has been snowballing for years now,
- 38:53Speaker 4: and I think the Career mail, I mean, good on
- 38:55Speaker 4: them for the concerning headline, but when you read those
- 38:59Speaker 4: countries New Zealand, UK, US, Canada, Spacific islander nations, you're like,
- 39:05Speaker 4: here around, mates, that's okay.
- 39:07Speaker 5: They're the people we'd be relying on to defend us anyway,
- 39:10Speaker 5: like we're not going to be fighting China on our own.
- 39:12Speaker 5: Spoiler alert. Also, this is exactly what This is exactly
- 39:15Speaker 5: what made the Roman Empire last for one thousand years
- 39:18Speaker 5: or two thousand years, depending on how you count it. Obviously,
- 39:21Speaker 5: I like to go right up into the fall of
- 39:23Speaker 5: Constantinople in the late obviously, but this is perfect. I
- 39:28Speaker 5: think this is very, very sensible. And yes, we do
- 39:30Speaker 5: have more people these days than we used to, but
- 39:32Speaker 5: they're older. The reason why we have to rely on
- 39:36Speaker 5: immigrants coming here and doing jobs for us, as well
- 39:39Speaker 5: as joining our army is because we are not having
- 39:42Speaker 5: enough babies. So unless you're getting out there and having
- 39:45Speaker 5: one one for that and one for the country, you
- 39:47Speaker 5: have no right to complain about immigration or foreigners.
- 39:52Speaker 1: I can get behind, that's right. Yeah, come on people.
- 39:56Speaker 5: Personally, I'm too pusched to push, so you can just
- 39:57Speaker 5: get a cut out. It's fine anyway. How you doing
- 40:00Speaker 5: that for another I've done that. I'm fine, that's right. Okay,
- 40:04Speaker 5: Yeah you are you.
- 40:05Speaker 3: One of these you know, small number of men that's
- 40:08Speaker 3: actually had a child, Joe, because you said you didn't push,
- 40:10Speaker 3: you had to cut out.
- 40:11Speaker 5: Yes, that's well. Firstly, I find your assertion that men
- 40:15Speaker 5: can't have children to be offensive. Stop stopped me.
- 40:20Speaker 3: So tonight we've misjindered someone and now I have.
- 40:23Speaker 2: Offended men who have babe.
- 40:25Speaker 5: I am a very proud Okay, that's going to go.
- 40:33Speaker 5: That's not the moving number of days since Charles last
- 40:39Speaker 5: Blunder reads the front page of the Australian Spoiler Alert.
- 40:44Speaker 5: Zero Immigration minnes Andrew Giles has admitted he falsely claimed
- 40:47Speaker 5: criminals released from detention were being monitored by drones because
- 40:52Speaker 5: it simply did not make any bloody sense whatsoever, even
- 40:57Speaker 5: as he was saying, sorry, that's not what the story says.
- 40:59Speaker 5: But how again, like what I don't honestly, I'm trying
- 41:03Speaker 5: to feel sorry for Andrew Giles at this point, so
- 41:07Speaker 5: we'll move on from that. I just don't understand, Like
- 41:09Speaker 5: I don't feel so, is it like The Avengers where
- 41:12Speaker 5: Falcon has a little buzzy drone just following people around
- 41:16Speaker 5: or just hanging outside? What? How did he picture it
- 41:19Speaker 5: in his head?
- 41:20Speaker 4: It was Senator James Patterson's tweet today being like, here's
- 41:25Speaker 4: Giles's drone whatever it is, drone program in action, and
- 41:29Speaker 4: there's just some dude dancing around with this bird looking
- 41:32Speaker 4: drone hovering around his kneecaps.
- 41:35Speaker 1: So this is now just a running joke.
- 41:38Speaker 4: But you're quite right, why would you even bother making
- 41:41Speaker 4: up such a massive being like.
- 41:43Speaker 1: No, no, no, everyone's safe. They're being monitored by drone.
- 41:47Speaker 5: Saying the department this is advice he got from his
- 41:50Speaker 5: career apartment.
- 41:51Speaker 2: He's he's blaming.
- 41:56Speaker 5: Let's pretend that you know you're Andrew Giles, you're the department.
- 42:00Speaker 5: Oh well, you know, we're using drones to monitor detanism.
- 42:03Speaker 5: How like, how how does that work, like what like,
- 42:08Speaker 5: wouldn't you It's kind of like saying I've invented a
- 42:10Speaker 5: cold fusion reactor using a pizza.
- 42:13Speaker 2: But it just proves what it proves what a dunderplunker.
- 42:19Speaker 5: This part from that, everything in the Albaneze government is
- 42:22Speaker 5: going really really well.
- 42:23Speaker 2: Well, yeah, great.
- 42:25Speaker 3: He is such a dunce that he was supposedly advised
- 42:28Speaker 3: by the department that they were using drones to monitor
- 42:31Speaker 3: these people, and then he's like, jeez, I really need
- 42:34Speaker 3: an easy win here. I'm going to go into this
- 42:36Speaker 3: interview with Kieran Gilbert and say that we're using these
- 42:39Speaker 3: drones even though I've been given no further information on
- 42:43Speaker 3: what they are, or how they work or how they
- 42:45Speaker 3: do their job because they don't exist. But it's going
- 42:48Speaker 3: to look good on Telly when I go on and
- 42:50Speaker 3: tell Kira and that.
- 42:51Speaker 2: Also now he's here apologizing it made.
- 42:53Speaker 5: It's the same department who's blaming for giving him all
- 42:56Speaker 5: the other misleading advice that he double check.
- 43:00Speaker 3: That one he claimed that he didn't get the advice,
- 43:04Speaker 3: and now he says.
- 43:05Speaker 5: That it's say, how are we monitoring the detainees? You know,
- 43:10Speaker 5: it was the Director General from the Department. Oh, we're
- 43:13Speaker 5: using iron Man. We've got the flying Purple people letter
- 43:19Speaker 5: comes in and chases them around the country. Anyway. Second, yeah,
- 43:23Speaker 5: I liked it in the eyes my cat boss's career
- 43:27Speaker 5: quote online. No, he hasn't got a website. It's on
- 43:30Speaker 5: the line. Lawyers for Northern Territories Anti Corruption sheet. Oh god,
- 43:35Speaker 5: I love the territory. Michael Riches offered his wife twenty
- 43:38Speaker 5: thousand dollars to stop her complaint against him being decided
- 43:43Speaker 5: in a court hearing, saying the matter would end the
- 43:46Speaker 5: senior Laura for Enforcements officials career if it were to
- 43:49Speaker 5: come in front of a judge. Well, you got that right.
- 43:53Speaker 2: How dumb?
- 43:54Speaker 3: I just don't under how dumb can you get? And like,
- 43:58Speaker 3: not only are you just you know, some bloke doing it.
- 44:03Speaker 2: You've got your lawyers.
- 44:04Speaker 3: You are the anti corruption bloke and your lawyers have gone.
- 44:08Speaker 5: Off to the white But this is honey, trust me,
- 44:13Speaker 5: I'm an anti corruption officer. I know how bad this
- 44:16Speaker 5: is going to look.
- 44:19Speaker 1: Going to get me too good to the bright name
- 44:21Speaker 1: of the herald Son.
- 44:22Speaker 4: Now new SRL tax via the Suburban rail loop tax
- 44:27Speaker 4: should be on the cards as the Allen government scrambles
- 44:30Speaker 4: to find ways to plug the mega projects multi billion
- 44:35Speaker 4: dollar black hole.
- 44:37Speaker 1: Because that's what Victoria needs right now.
- 44:40Speaker 4: Another tax, that's what you guys need down there.
- 44:44Speaker 5: I mean, seriously, isn't the multi billion dollar black hole
- 44:48Speaker 5: just another name for Victoria.
- 44:50Speaker 4: Yeah, so far they've just ruled out not doing it,
- 44:56Speaker 4: which means they're probably going to do it.
- 44:58Speaker 5: That's right. Well, but I still don't have trained to
- 45:00Speaker 5: the airport.
- 45:01Speaker 2: No, they don't have it.
- 45:02Speaker 3: They don't have anything because of course some round and round,
- 45:05Speaker 3: but not to anywhere. The last time that there was
- 45:08Speaker 3: actually a big infrastructure road infrastructure project in the pipeline,
- 45:12Speaker 3: the East Westlink, mister Andrews got rid of it and
- 45:15Speaker 3: then invented other ones that are far more expensive and you've.
- 45:18Speaker 2: Got to pay for it. The States broke. Let's go
- 45:20Speaker 2: to the advertisers tomorrow.
- 45:21Speaker 3: Three year old Kindy's seven hundred and fifteen million dollar costs.
- 45:25Speaker 3: The state budget will include seven hundred and fifteen million
- 45:27Speaker 3: dollars over five years to deliver preschool for three year
- 45:30Speaker 3: olds in South Australia. Kindy for Tops will be delivered
- 45:33Speaker 3: to long day care providers from twenty twenty six and
- 45:36Speaker 3: ow the kindergarteners will phase in between twenty twenty six
- 45:40Speaker 3: and twenty twenty third twenty thirty two, because of course
- 45:46Speaker 3: everyone has to be off being good little worker. But
- 45:48Speaker 3: he's earning their attacks for the governments.
- 45:50Speaker 5: How dare you be at hope brilliant? The universal preschool
- 45:54Speaker 5: is the most brilliant I know, Dominic Parita.
- 45:57Speaker 4: Yes, this is what Albany he has always SAIDNY one
- 46:01Speaker 4: of universal kindy, universal preschool.
- 46:03Speaker 1: How about you.
- 46:05Speaker 4: Support mothers to stay at home with their own children,
- 46:10Speaker 4: free money to give those kids over to you so
- 46:13Speaker 4: that the state can raise them while these women go
- 46:16Speaker 4: back to work, which is not where the vast majority
- 46:19Speaker 4: of them one to be.
- 46:20Speaker 1: They want to raise their own increase paral.
- 46:24Speaker 5: They just interest the length of time and the rate.
- 46:27Speaker 3: Ye.
- 46:27Speaker 4: But because you've popped out a kid, I'm talking about
- 46:32Speaker 4: staying at home and raising your own children instead of
- 46:36Speaker 4: handing your little three year olds over.
- 46:39Speaker 1: To the state to raise. Because the government just wants
- 46:43Speaker 1: your tax money.
- 46:44Speaker 3: Exactly, and as I've seen, as I've said many times,
- 46:47Speaker 3: they should just give the money that they give to
- 46:48Speaker 3: childcare subsidy to people cash in hand families if they
- 46:51Speaker 3: want to look after the kids at home, but they
- 46:53Speaker 3: don't do that because they don't make tax if you're
- 46:55Speaker 3: not at work.
- 46:55Speaker 2: Coming up after the break, we are going.
- 46:57Speaker 3: To show you one of the most cringe worthy ofpisodes
- 47:00Speaker 3: from a politician ever.
- 47:02Speaker 2: I don't think it can be beat that's coming out now.
- 47:06Speaker 3: Liz tell us about a senator in Canada who wanted
- 47:09Speaker 3: to get down.
- 47:10Speaker 2: With the youths.
- 47:11Speaker 4: So she's presenting a bill to reduce the voting age
- 47:15Speaker 4: to sixteen. Sounds a bit like the Greens. Maybe it's
- 47:18Speaker 4: trendy amongst people with barely a firing neuron between them.
- 47:22Speaker 4: So she thought, well, while I'm presenting this, I'm going
- 47:25Speaker 4: to try and appeal to those young people.
- 47:28Speaker 8: Here she goes, honorable fam reading the vote until eighteen
- 47:34Speaker 8: is a big yikes and mad sugar. But as to
- 47:37Speaker 8: a one hits different, today's youth slays and stays busting.
- 47:40Speaker 8: That's why we got to give them.
- 47:41Speaker 2: A chance to clap back.
- 47:43Speaker 8: If not, how will we be able to see that
- 47:45Speaker 8: they eat that up? No cap, This bill slaps and
- 47:48Speaker 8: is electoral glow up. I am its number one stand
- 47:51Speaker 8: for real MESSI thank you, nyaw with you.
- 47:56Speaker 4: The harder they try to be cute, the more vomitous
- 47:59Speaker 4: it is. Also, who's watching that and being like, oh, yeah,
- 48:02Speaker 4: now I'm going to vote for it. Only the members
- 48:04Speaker 4: in parliament get a vote for crying out loud like.
- 48:07Speaker 5: That was meant to be a speech in favor of Laura.
- 48:10Speaker 3: I know.
- 48:12Speaker 2: It's so.
- 48:13Speaker 5: It looked like she was suffering from some kind of
- 48:16Speaker 5: medical episode.
- 48:17Speaker 2: Yeah, I think she can do.
- 48:18Speaker 4: You with your opposition being like the state of our
- 48:21Speaker 4: sixteen year olds.
- 48:22Speaker 1: This is how they talk. It's barely legible, and these
- 48:25Speaker 1: guys should be allowed to vote.
- 48:26Speaker 3: I think she was having an aneurysm at the time. Politicians,
- 48:29Speaker 3: please just don't try to be cool.
- 48:31Speaker 2: It never ever works.
- 48:32Speaker 3: Before we go, there's a mob is set up in
- 48:35Speaker 3: Manly in Sydney. They're calling themselves the Pea Patrol because apparently,
- 48:39Speaker 3: particularly during summer, a bunch of drunken lauts like to
- 48:42Speaker 3: go down to es Esplanade Park at Manly Cove and
- 48:46Speaker 3: get on the beers, as Daniel Andrews once said, and
- 48:49Speaker 3: they then go and urinate all over everyone's fences. And
- 48:52Speaker 3: of course they've been complaining about this for a while,
- 48:54Speaker 3: no one's been able to do anything about it. The
- 48:57Speaker 3: area is colloquially known as the office in the local area,
- 49:01Speaker 3: so the locals are now going around filming and taking
- 49:04Speaker 3: photographs of people pissing on their fences in an effort
- 49:08Speaker 3: to get rid of them.
- 49:09Speaker 5: Although I was interested in the coverage of this cub
- 49:12Speaker 5: because it says the revelers urinately outside homes are causing
- 49:16Speaker 5: a quote world of pain. If that's happening, you really
- 49:19Speaker 5: should consult.
- 49:19Speaker 3: A do well. At the very least they're pissed off anyway.
- 49:22Speaker 3: That's it from us to night up next to the
- 49:23Speaker 3: rid of Paddy Show.
