- 0:01Speaker 1: Why on Sky News Venis and Sharry.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Good Evening tonight. One Nation's victory threatens Canberra's political elite,
- 0:11Speaker 2: and now they're coming for Western Sydney. I'll go through
- 0:14Speaker 2: the ramifications of their win with Shadow Treasurer Tim Wilson
- 0:18Speaker 2: shortly plus Anthony Albanisi and his ministers fighting to take
- 0:23Speaker 2: credit for the broken promise on negative gearing and capital
- 0:27Speaker 2: gainst acts the inside story of the meeting where this
- 0:31Speaker 2: backflip was decided shortly and a female journalist is verbally
- 0:36Speaker 2: abused by an Isis bride's supporter at the airport. This
- 0:44Speaker 2: is exactly the kind of behavior Australians are worried about.
- 0:48Speaker 2: Our Monday favorite Ray Hadley would dig in soon. And
- 0:52Speaker 2: the mother who allegedly shouted an anti Semitic slur at
- 0:55Speaker 2: a netball team has now been named. Will tell tell
- 1:00Speaker 2: you who she is shortly. But first, Saturday's One Nation
- 1:05Speaker 2: win cannot be underestimated. One Nation didn't just win a
- 1:10Speaker 2: by election. It catapulted from a fringe party to a
- 1:14Speaker 2: populist force to be reckoned with. And it's the Liberal
- 1:17Speaker 2: Party that's now being pushed to the margins, relegated to
- 1:21Speaker 2: a minority Party of increasing irrelevance. The primary vote tells
- 1:26Speaker 2: that story. One Nation had around three times as many
- 1:31Speaker 2: voters as the Liberal Party three times and Barnaby Joyce
- 1:37Speaker 2: made that point today.
- 1:39Speaker 3: The polling is not an aberration. It's now being validated
- 1:43Speaker 3: by both South Australia and Farah.
- 1:46Speaker 1: There's a strong following out there.
- 1:47Speaker 2: Are you going after Bowen's seat?
- 1:50Speaker 3: We are very much in the mind for Western suburb
- 1:53Speaker 3: Sydney and the.
- 1:54Speaker 2: Bond between Pauline Hanson and former Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby
- 1:59Speaker 2: Joyce has never looked stronger. They were rapturous on Saturday
- 2:03Speaker 2: night as if they'd won government. I can't forget their
- 2:07Speaker 2: latest team recruit. Clearly it was a catastrophic mistake for
- 2:21Speaker 2: both the Liberals and the Nationals to run separate candidates. Combined,
- 2:25Speaker 2: their primary votes were about twenty one percent. Together, they
- 2:30Speaker 2: would have had a better chance at winning, but a
- 2:33Speaker 2: part they bled the National's risk withering away entirely. To
- 2:40Speaker 2: grasp the dramatic collapse of the coalition and support, you
- 2:43Speaker 2: only have to compare Saturday's result with the Liberal primary
- 2:47Speaker 2: vote in Farrer at the May five election about a
- 2:51Speaker 2: year ago. Now, commentators have been running the line that
- 2:55Speaker 2: one Nation is disrupting both major parties, Labor and Liberals.
- 3:01Speaker 2: Look it's true to a certain extent, but it's not
- 3:04Speaker 2: quite right because the damage is far more devastating on
- 3:08Speaker 2: the Coalition than on Labor. One Nation plans to do
- 3:13Speaker 2: to the Liberals on the right what the Teals did
- 3:16Speaker 2: to them on the left, stripping seats and shrinking the
- 3:19Speaker 2: party into an ever narrower sliver of relevance. Combined, this
- 3:25Speaker 2: withers away the seats the Liberals can safely hold, and
- 3:29Speaker 2: it poses an existential crisis for the party. The Liberals
- 3:34Speaker 2: have conceded their left flank to the Teals and their
- 3:36Speaker 2: conservative flank to One Nation. And the question then is unavoidable.
- 3:42Speaker 2: What does the party stand for today? And where are
- 3:45Speaker 2: the voices connecting with the voters articulating its position. And
- 3:51Speaker 2: you contrast this with one nation, one high profile leader,
- 3:56Speaker 2: one face. Every Australian knows unmistakable cut through. Pauline Hanson
- 4:04Speaker 2: makes mistakes, she does, she says the wrong thing. She's
- 4:07Speaker 2: far from the most articulate or polished politician in the country,
- 4:11Speaker 2: and in that sense she's not dissimilar from Donald Trump.
- 4:15Speaker 2: But these flaws are working for her like they worked
- 4:20Speaker 2: for the president, because it means authenticity. Australians are in
- 4:25Speaker 2: no doubt what Pauline Hanson believes or what she'd do,
- 4:31Speaker 2: and right now, with terrorism and radical Islam front of mind,
- 4:36Speaker 2: her anti immigration position is resonating with voters. The Albanese
- 4:42Speaker 2: government's failures are also driving voters into Hanson's arms, not
- 4:47Speaker 2: just on national security, but on the economy, cost of living,
- 4:51Speaker 2: rising inflation, and now on broken election promises. It was
- 4:56Speaker 2: only last year the new Albanezi was patronizing and dismissive
- 5:03Speaker 2: of journalists who dared to ask, if you plan to
- 5:07Speaker 2: change negative gearing or capital gains tax?
- 5:10Speaker 4: Can you rule out any changes to negative gearing and
- 5:13Speaker 4: capital gains tax?
- 5:15Speaker 1: How hard is it for the fiftieth time?
- 5:19Speaker 2: That same journalist the Daily Telegraphs to James O'Doherty last
- 5:23Speaker 2: week put to the Prime Minister directly that he had
- 5:27Speaker 2: lied to voters some fifty times.
- 5:31Speaker 4: Come Minister, thirteen months ago you ruled out changes to
- 5:35Speaker 4: negative gearing and capital gains tax for what you said
- 5:37Speaker 4: was the fiftieth time. Does that mean that you lied
- 5:41Speaker 4: fifty times the voters.
- 5:43Speaker 5: Or the budget will be on Tuesday, and you'll have
- 5:45Speaker 5: every opportunity.
- 5:46Speaker 6: So did you like afty times?
- 5:47Speaker 5: You'll have every opportunity.
- 5:51Speaker 2: This is a stunning backflip. It's hard to imagine a
- 5:56Speaker 2: prime minister would want to take credit for misleading vote
- 6:00Speaker 2: like this, but it seems Albanezi does. An article out
- 6:05Speaker 2: today suggests he doesn't just accept responsibility for the backflip,
- 6:09Speaker 2: he wants the credit for it. He wants to be
- 6:11Speaker 2: recognized for it. Ahead of tomorrow's federal budget. Paul Skarl
- 6:16Speaker 2: writes in The Herald that it was Alban Easy himself
- 6:19Speaker 2: who drove the change, not Treasurer Jim Chalmers. He writes,
- 6:24Speaker 2: in one of their small group conversations, Alban Easy asked
- 6:28Speaker 2: Charmers and Katie Gallagher to spend summer working up options
- 6:33Speaker 2: on negative gearing, capital gains, tax and trusts. His plan
- 6:38Speaker 2: was to start building the argument for change and justifying
- 6:41Speaker 2: a blatant broken promise in a press club speech on
- 6:45Speaker 2: intergenerational inequality. And here was Alban Easy today making that
- 6:51Speaker 2: argument of intergenerational inequality.
- 6:55Speaker 5: The difficult decision, but the right decision is to do
- 6:59Speaker 5: the right thing with the right policies to deliver and
- 7:04Speaker 5: clearly people are frustrated issues like intergenerational equity.
- 7:10Speaker 2: In his article, Polsico asked Katie Gallagher when it was
- 7:14Speaker 2: that Albanezy decided to renair on election pledges. Her answer
- 7:19Speaker 2: is remarkable, she said, you know what he's like. He's
- 7:23Speaker 2: thinking about one hundred things every day. My guess is
- 7:26Speaker 2: he weighed that up for several months in his own head,
- 7:29Speaker 2: thinking about whether or not this should be done. I
- 7:32Speaker 2: don't think he's given enough credit for having an appetite
- 7:36Speaker 2: for reform. So there it is a minister arguing about
- 7:43Speaker 2: who deserves credit for hiking taxes they promised never to touch.
- 7:49Speaker 2: Says a lot as well about Katie Gallagher's relationship with
- 7:52Speaker 2: both the Prime Minister and the treasurer. Well Sky News
- 7:56Speaker 2: political editor Andrew Clanel grilled Charmers on this broken promise yesterday.
- 8:03Speaker 7: I mean, this is the biggest breach of electoral trust
- 8:05Speaker 7: since Julia Gillard's no carbon tax under a government I
- 8:08Speaker 7: lead promise. After that, Julia Gillard's numbers, as you know,
- 8:11Speaker 7: went south in a big way. Are you ready for
- 8:13Speaker 7: that sort of backlash or do you think you can
- 8:15Speaker 7: avoid it?
- 8:16Speaker 8: Well, my view, Andrew, is if a government comes to
- 8:18Speaker 8: a different view. Then the onus is on the government
- 8:22Speaker 8: senior ministers like myself in explaining why the government's come
- 8:27Speaker 8: to a different view.
- 8:29Speaker 2: Yeah, and we'll have to see whether they can convince
- 8:32Speaker 2: voters of that tomorrow. But the question is, would alban
- 8:36Speaker 2: Easy have had such a decisive election victory if he
- 8:40Speaker 2: was honest with the Australian public, if he told voters
- 8:44Speaker 2: before the election exactly what he intended to do, would
- 8:48Speaker 2: he have then won ninety four seats? I mean, it's
- 8:52Speaker 2: highly unlikely, and we can say this with confidence because
- 8:55Speaker 2: we've seen the playbook. Bill Shotton was upfront with voters
- 9:00Speaker 2: when he took a similar policy to an election, and
- 9:03Speaker 2: Australians revolted shot and pitched it as taxing the top
- 9:08Speaker 2: end of town, and he lost the unlosable election. Well,
- 9:12Speaker 2: I think that Albanize took the wrong lesson from that,
- 9:15Speaker 2: not that Australians don't want these changes, but to hide
- 9:19Speaker 2: it from them until it's too late. This from a
- 9:23Speaker 2: man who told Australians that his word was his bond
- 9:27Speaker 2: as he heralded a new era of trust in politics. Well,
- 9:32Speaker 2: with leaders like this, is it any wonder? More and
- 9:35Speaker 2: more voters are turning to Pauline Hansen. As flawed and
- 9:41Speaker 2: fallible as she is, at least they see her as
- 9:44Speaker 2: a conviction politician they can trust and it's more than
- 9:48Speaker 2: they can say for the other major parties. Shadow Treasurer
- 9:55Speaker 2: Tim Wilson will join me shortly ahead of tomorrow's federal budget.
- 9:59Speaker 2: But now for more on I'm joined by The Herald's
- 10:01Speaker 2: chief political correspondent Paul Skal, who broke that story that
- 10:05Speaker 2: I've just been speaking about. Paul, great to have you
- 10:07Speaker 2: on the show. Thank you very much for your time. Look,
- 10:11Speaker 2: you've reported today that there's an exclusive Cabinets subcommittee with
- 10:15Speaker 2: Alban Easy Charmers also Katie Gallagher, which is where they've
- 10:19Speaker 2: been discussing negative gearing, capital gains tax and also trusts.
- 10:23Speaker 2: Can you tell us about this grouping and just when
- 10:27Speaker 2: how early these discussions began.
- 10:32Speaker 9: Yeah, Hi, sharing, good evening to all your viewers. This
- 10:36Speaker 9: was a story our researched last week trying to understand
- 10:39Speaker 9: when exactly the government made this decision to reverse its
- 10:43Speaker 9: pretty clear election pledges not to touch capital gains tax, discount,
- 10:46Speaker 9: negative gearing and trust, which, as you say, is a
- 10:49Speaker 9: contentious set of policies that have been rejected at the
- 10:52Speaker 9: ballot box once. What I learned is that the Prime Minister,
- 10:56Speaker 9: once he had his thumping ninety four seat victory in
- 10:58Speaker 9: May last year, started to think, you know, in his
- 11:02Speaker 9: own mind and just in informal chats with his colleagues
- 11:05Speaker 9: about how the government would expand in its second and
- 11:08Speaker 9: third year. He's just had a big win. The election
- 11:11Speaker 9: mandate was relatively narrow. You'll recall there were lots of
- 11:14Speaker 9: pledgures around social spending. He's cuts little small policies that
- 11:21Speaker 9: were seen as sweeteners by his critics, and he had
- 11:24Speaker 9: started to think about housing and intergenerational equality inequality, i
- 11:28Speaker 9: should say. And in November, when he cleared the parliamentary
- 11:31Speaker 9: decks and got through some major legislation, he then engaged
- 11:34Speaker 9: in some more serious conversations with that very small group
- 11:39Speaker 9: of ministers, as you say, Kadie Gallagher and Jim Chalmers,
- 11:42Speaker 9: as well as some of his really trusted advisors like
- 11:44Speaker 9: Mark Butler, Penny Wong, Tim Ayres. And they determined in
- 11:47Speaker 9: these conversations that government's agenda needed to expand and they
- 11:51Speaker 9: would look at these contentious policies that have been rejected
- 11:53Speaker 9: once before.
- 11:55Speaker 2: I thought it was really fascinating how throughout Your Peace
- 11:58Speaker 2: there seemed to be this underlying battle to claim credit
- 12:02Speaker 2: for what they see as major reform, the changes that
- 12:05Speaker 2: are being discussed now. Most consider that it's the Treasurer
- 12:09Speaker 2: Jim Chalmers who's been the ambitious reformer, but clearly Albanzi
- 12:14Speaker 2: wants the credit as well.
- 12:18Speaker 9: You're right, Charry, this is a fascinating dynamic inside the government.
- 12:22Speaker 9: A lot of the commentary about the relationship between Jim
- 12:24Speaker 9: Chalmers and Albanesi, who are about fifteen years apart, one
- 12:27Speaker 9: from the right faction, one from the left faction. The
- 12:30Speaker 9: Prime Minister incredibly wily, keen to maintain power, maintain stability,
- 12:35Speaker 9: the Treasurer who in much of the commentary is the
- 12:37Speaker 9: driving force of ambition. It's a similar dynamic to the
- 12:41Speaker 9: treasurer prime minister relationships under John Howard and Peter Costello
- 12:45Speaker 9: and Paul Keating and Bob Hawk, or at least that's
- 12:47Speaker 9: the conventional wisdom. I think I can see on the
- 12:49Speaker 9: screen there Cameron Milner about to burn your show, so
- 12:52Speaker 9: he'll be able to speak to this too. But there's
- 12:54Speaker 9: a view inside the cabinet, yeah, particularly among the allies
- 12:59Speaker 9: of Anthony Alberanezi, and they are many in the cabinet
- 13:01Speaker 9: that this is a bit of a false, simplistic narrative,
- 13:04Speaker 9: that Jim Chalmers is not quite the reformer he makes
- 13:07Speaker 9: himself out to be, that the driving force of ideas
- 13:09Speaker 9: comes from other parts of the government, and the Charmers is,
- 13:12Speaker 9: in some ways because he's not in that Albanesi in
- 13:14Speaker 9: a circle, somewhat of a marginalized figure. Now people around
- 13:17Speaker 9: Charmers dispute that, but it's a fascinating contest.
- 13:21Speaker 2: I mean, we can all see it as a broken promise.
- 13:23Speaker 2: The government's going to be hammered by it in the media.
- 13:25Speaker 2: They already are being hammered by it. But it seems
- 13:28Speaker 2: to be that the at least the political lesson from
- 13:31Speaker 2: the changes to the Stage three tax cuts is that
- 13:34Speaker 2: you know they can now get away with broken promises
- 13:36Speaker 2: that they won't be punished for it by the electorate.
- 13:41Speaker 6: I think you're spot on.
- 13:43Speaker 9: A key thing I found in researching this story is
- 13:45Speaker 9: that there has been years of political debate and analysis
- 13:50Speaker 9: on Julie Gillard's carbon tax renegging Tony Abbott's going back
- 13:56Speaker 9: on his word on cuts. See these moments were seen
- 13:59Speaker 9: as political suicide. The media landscape has changed significantly since then.
- 14:03Speaker 9: The way people receive information is fragmented. Voters paid less
- 14:06Speaker 9: attention to some of these pleasures. That's the idea in
- 14:09Speaker 9: parts of the government at least. And the Stage three
- 14:11Speaker 9: tax cuts were seen as a key moment in the
- 14:13Speaker 9: middle of last term. Your listeners will recall that after
- 14:15Speaker 9: the Voice referendum, the Prime Minister's approval ratings had sunk.
- 14:18Speaker 9: He needed to do something to get off the mat.
- 14:21Speaker 9: He reversed these Stage three tax cuts allowed people and
- 14:24Speaker 9: the lower and middle ends of the income spectrum to
- 14:26Speaker 9: get more money. There was about of a week of
- 14:29Speaker 9: really harsh criticism, particularly in some of the conservative press,
- 14:32Speaker 9: tabloid front pages, calling the Prime Minister a liar. He
- 14:35Speaker 9: wore them, he explained the changes and because the policy
- 14:38Speaker 9: benefited more Australians, he won the argument. And that's the
- 14:41Speaker 9: calculus here again.
- 14:43Speaker 2: And we'll see whether they are able to prosecute that
- 14:46Speaker 2: political argument. Just finally, I want to ask you about
- 14:49Speaker 2: one nation the result in Farah on the weekend. I mean,
- 14:52Speaker 2: clearly the Liberal Party is now facing an existential crisis,
- 14:56Speaker 2: but I'm interested in whether this has shocked the government
- 14:59Speaker 2: as well, what are you hearing?
- 15:03Speaker 9: Yeah, I see Tim Wilson just walking in the corridor
- 15:05Speaker 9: behind me, So it's shocked people like him for sure.
- 15:08Speaker 9: Your editorial, I thought, was pretty much spot on Sharry
- 15:11Speaker 9: on this. The one nation surge kills off the mainstream
- 15:15Speaker 9: center right.
- 15:16Speaker 6: Party before it kills off labor.
- 15:18Speaker 9: Labor was worried over summer, particularly post Bondai that in
- 15:21Speaker 9: most opinion polls as well as its internal research, it
- 15:24Speaker 9: looked as if about one in ten labor voters were
- 15:26Speaker 9: drifting into the Pauline Hanson column. Now that's the portent,
- 15:30Speaker 9: potentially of bad things to come. But when the right
- 15:33Speaker 9: cannibalizes itself, it means a liberal party won't govern. And
- 15:37Speaker 9: it's quite extraordinary how quickly the debate on this is
- 15:40Speaker 9: shifting and how you know, Savage, the one nation upswing
- 15:44Speaker 9: has been for the coalition side for a long time.
- 15:46Speaker 9: The argument from coalition mp is like Tim Wilson, has been,
- 15:49Speaker 9: you know, don't let one nation eat into our base.
- 15:52Speaker 9: If they increase from fifteen to twenty percent, that means
- 15:55Speaker 9: we can't govern.
- 15:56Speaker 6: So make sure you vote for the party that can govern.
- 15:59Speaker 9: But with one Nation now above the Liberal Party in
- 16:02Speaker 9: all major polls, and with a commanding election result like
- 16:05Speaker 9: the one in Pharah, you can credibly argue if you're
- 16:07Speaker 9: Barnaby Joyce or Pauline Hansen, even though they know it's
- 16:09Speaker 9: highly unlikely they'll win government, but they can credibly argue
- 16:12Speaker 9: that they are the opposition, not Tim Wilson and his friends.
- 16:16Speaker 9: So vote for one nation, not the meek and mild Liberals.
- 16:19Speaker 9: So it's extraordinary how quickly that debate has shifted, and
- 16:22Speaker 9: we're in uncharted territory in Australia.
- 16:25Speaker 2: We are indeed. All right, Paul, really appreciate your analysis tonight,
- 16:29Speaker 2: and again congrats on that great piece today.
- 16:33Speaker 6: Thank you.
- 16:35Speaker 2: All right. I'll returned to the budget in a moment
- 16:37Speaker 2: with the shadow treasure of Tim Wilson. But I want
- 16:39Speaker 2: to turn now to this alleged anti Semitic incident that
- 16:42Speaker 2: unfolded on the weekend at a children's netball game. A
- 16:46Speaker 2: Jewish under twelve's girls netball team was playing the Old
- 16:50Speaker 2: Saints team in Marubra. A mother allegedly yelled f the Jews.
- 16:57Speaker 2: Then when she was questioned on that, she allegedly said
- 16:59Speaker 2: words to the effect of you all should have been eradicated.
- 17:04Speaker 2: Now three parents from the Jewish team say that they
- 17:07Speaker 2: heard it, and at least one at least one from
- 17:10Speaker 2: the opposing team. Now she has tonight been named by
- 17:15Speaker 2: the City Morning Herald and we can tell you her
- 17:18Speaker 2: name now for the first time as forty two year
- 17:21Speaker 2: old Jody scar Seller. Jody scar Seller. She refused to
- 17:27Speaker 2: comment when the Herald contacted her, but she said she
- 17:30Speaker 2: was scared.
- 17:33Speaker 1: Now.
- 17:33Speaker 2: Jewish community leader Alex Rifchen arrived on the scene shortly afterwards,
- 17:37Speaker 2: and he confronted Jody on the court.
- 17:41Speaker 1: I should say what's being alleged? Para. Did you actually
- 17:44Speaker 1: say what's being alleged?
- 17:45Speaker 5: No?
- 17:45Speaker 1: One, I'm asking the question. So the multiple witnesses said
- 17:49Speaker 1: that you.
- 17:49Speaker 5: Said the Jewish.
- 17:51Speaker 2: Oh my god, what are we going to call the police?
- 17:55Speaker 6: They have been called.
- 17:56Speaker 2: You can call them and I'm happy to speak to that.
- 17:59Speaker 9: I know that.
- 17:59Speaker 2: The police have now charged her with using offensive language
- 18:06Speaker 2: in a public place and she set her face Waverley
- 18:09Speaker 2: Court on June seventeen. She's also been banned by Netball
- 18:12Speaker 2: New South Wales from attending games while under investigation. Now,
- 18:17Speaker 2: one of the mothers who was present at that netball
- 18:21Speaker 2: game whose kids were on the court, had just given
- 18:25Speaker 2: evidence a few days earlier in the Royal Commission.
- 18:29Speaker 10: Yes, so we arrived in Bonde and my eight year
- 18:32Speaker 10: old just started crying, which was strange, and I said
- 18:35Speaker 10: to her, what's wrong and she said, now, when I
- 18:37Speaker 10: come to BONDEI I think about dying.
- 18:40Speaker 2: Dina gave very powerful evidence. You might recall I played
- 18:44Speaker 2: a bit of it on the show last week and
- 18:47Speaker 2: just a few days after that she had to deal
- 18:50Speaker 2: with allegedly anti Semitic abuse. Told it the kids, the
- 18:56Speaker 2: parents at the netball game. It's such a disgrace that
- 19:02Speaker 2: such anti Semitism is spilling into ordinary Australian life. For
- 19:08Speaker 2: more on this, let's bring it now. Sky News hosts
- 19:11Speaker 2: Steve Price and former Labor State Secretary and Chief of
- 19:13Speaker 2: Staff Camer Milner. Steve, this allegedly happened at an under
- 19:18Speaker 2: twelves netball game. I mean, you know, at a children's
- 19:22Speaker 2: netball game. It's just beyond belief, really.
- 19:29Speaker 1: It is.
- 19:29Speaker 11: And the timing of it, of course, we're in the
- 19:32Speaker 11: middle of the Royal Commission. We've had BONDI this happened.
- 19:35Speaker 11: This alleged event that took place at the netball happened
- 19:37Speaker 11: in Sydney, where Bondai took place. It's just extraordinary that anyone,
- 19:43Speaker 11: if these allegations are true, could be so ignorant. But
- 19:46Speaker 11: it seems that sport has become, or is, a very
- 19:49Speaker 11: fertile ground for anti Semitism. A very good friend of mine,
- 19:53Speaker 11: Jared Healy, has put a submission to the Royal Commission
- 19:57Speaker 11: into anti Semitism, and he has laid out very plainly
- 20:01Speaker 11: that on too many football fields, in too many places
- 20:04Speaker 11: that he's been, he has heard exactly the same sorts
- 20:07Speaker 11: of phraseology that is alleged here, people using anti Semitism
- 20:11Speaker 11: as some sort of sporting jibe or sporting insult to
- 20:15Speaker 11: try and upset people on the opposition. I'm absolutely staggered
- 20:20Speaker 11: that a forty two year old woman, if the allegations
- 20:24Speaker 11: are true, could actually stand there and say that. I'm speechless,
- 20:29Speaker 11: to be honest, it's disgraceful.
- 20:32Speaker 2: What I'm about to say is not part of the
- 20:34Speaker 2: police charges of the police case. But after that took place,
- 20:39Speaker 2: there were some other parents from the opposing team who
- 20:42Speaker 2: came to speak to some of the Jewish parents, and
- 20:46Speaker 2: one of the mothers said, well, there's a genocide in
- 20:49Speaker 2: Gars are going on, you know, what do you expect
- 20:52Speaker 2: and Caen, it's like these are eleven year old girls.
- 20:56Speaker 2: They're not to blame for whatever you think is happening
- 20:59Speaker 2: in Guars a whit, let me tell you, is not
- 21:00Speaker 2: a genocide.
- 21:03Speaker 12: It certainly isn't. It certainly isn't, Shari. But this is
- 21:06Speaker 12: the problem that the normalization of anti Semitism that's been
- 21:09Speaker 12: allowed to creep into our society and accelerated under Albanie.
- 21:13Speaker 12: I mean, we've all seen anti semonism over the years,
- 21:15Speaker 12: but it's been stamped out and tamped down. Women need
- 21:17Speaker 12: to be but under Albanize it's a rye fire and
- 21:19Speaker 12: you've seen that through your own someone as well, Shari.
- 21:21Speaker 12: And that's what's appalling that it isn't just at rallies
- 21:24Speaker 12: at the opera house where they're saying gas the Jews.
- 21:26Speaker 12: They're now saying f the Jews at a twelve year
- 21:28Speaker 12: old netball game. That's how disgusting anti semitis. It's but
- 21:32Speaker 12: what can I say is I think these people's crimes
- 21:34Speaker 12: should be just like the other things like assault and
- 21:36Speaker 12: other serious crimes. They should be named and shamed. These
- 21:39Speaker 12: people have no place in civil society. They have no
- 21:41Speaker 12: place to hide and their names should be out there
- 21:44Speaker 12: once they're charged like other serious crime Shari, because we've
- 21:47Speaker 12: got to stamp this out and shame these people out
- 21:49Speaker 12: of out of existence and shame them out of a
- 21:51Speaker 12: twelve year old girl's netball game being a place for
- 21:53Speaker 12: anti semitism.
- 21:55Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think all Saints acted well and quickly,
- 21:58Speaker 2: and so did or New South Wales. So that was
- 22:01Speaker 2: one good thing to come out of it, just to
- 22:03Speaker 2: see how quickly and the police as well. All right,
- 22:06Speaker 2: let's turn to the despicable behavior of the Isis Bride
- 22:10Speaker 2: supporters on Thursday night. Now, journalists were at Melbourne Airport
- 22:14Speaker 2: just they're doing their job and they were reportedly shoved
- 22:17Speaker 2: and blocked by these men in black Have a look
- 22:20Speaker 2: who came to welcome the women and children off the plane. Now,
- 22:24Speaker 2: one female journalist at Melbourne Airport was verbally attacked for
- 22:28Speaker 2: asking a simple question, why did you marry Isaac Harris?
- 22:35Speaker 2: And then another scuffle broke out with one of the
- 22:41Speaker 2: handlers and a photographer Have a look, I mean, Steve.
- 22:56Speaker 2: These actions exemplify exactly why Australians are so concerned with
- 23:00Speaker 2: this cohort's return, because there are clearly not just the
- 23:04Speaker 2: return of Isis Prides, but clearly a group of people
- 23:07Speaker 2: who have us disdain for our country and our values.
- 23:13Speaker 11: Thousand percent. They were very threatening, those men. They were
- 23:16Speaker 11: waiting out in the rivals hall, waiting for whoever was
- 23:19Speaker 11: going to come through the customs. In the end it
- 23:21Speaker 11: turned out to be one of the older woman's daughters
- 23:26Speaker 11: and the eight children. And I spoke to a couple
- 23:30Speaker 11: of reporters that were there. One of the TV reporters,
- 23:33Speaker 11: another female was punched in the stomach. The word slut
- 23:36Speaker 11: was used, which is what we heard there in that
- 23:40Speaker 11: exchange that you just played. These people were threatening, They
- 23:45Speaker 11: had no regard for the law. I just wonder where
- 23:48Speaker 11: the police were, by the way, on the night they
- 23:51Speaker 11: were shepherding these people through the car parking into a
- 23:54Speaker 11: bus that had curtains on it. They've got no regard
- 23:57Speaker 11: for us. I mean that phrase shut you slat. That
- 24:01Speaker 11: says a hell of a lot about the blokes who
- 24:04Speaker 11: were there picking those women up on Thursday night.
- 24:08Speaker 2: All right, look back to the budget because I want
- 24:10Speaker 2: to get your view on what we're going to see tomorrow. Also,
- 24:15Speaker 2: we saw the Finance Minister Katie Gallagher Steve saying today
- 24:18Speaker 2: that labor can't keep supercharging net zero spending forever. So
- 24:23Speaker 2: she told The Australian that we've invested heavily in this area.
- 24:26Speaker 2: The transition is underway, it's gaining paced, but you wouldn't
- 24:29Speaker 2: expect to see what we've done in earlier budgets where
- 24:32Speaker 2: we've kind of supercharged the investment. That's not sustainable. So Steve,
- 24:37Speaker 2: do you think that is an indication they're going to
- 24:40Speaker 2: wind back some of that subsidizing.
- 24:46Speaker 11: I'd love to see Chris Boen's face when Katie Gallagher
- 24:49Speaker 11: came out and said that, I mean, maybe we could
- 24:52Speaker 11: have a public holiday and they could sack Chris Bow
- 24:54Speaker 11: and we could stop spending all this money. She was
- 24:57Speaker 11: being honest. I think she probably regrets now saying it
- 25:00Speaker 11: because they've had this little cabal of people and they
- 25:03Speaker 11: never criticize the fact that billions and billions and billions
- 25:07Speaker 11: of dollars are being wasted on green energy projects. Everyone
- 25:11Speaker 11: they try and set up when it's made in Australia,
- 25:14Speaker 11: green hydrogen, all this stuff. The money we've spent on
- 25:17Speaker 11: that is extraordinary. They've had to cut back apparently in
- 25:20Speaker 11: the budget, the tax breaks on electric vehicles that's costing
- 25:24Speaker 11: too much as well. I think she just spoke the truth.
- 25:27Speaker 11: And you know where's Chris Balder. We haven't seen him
- 25:30Speaker 11: out anywhere. I'd love next time he does turn up
- 25:33Speaker 11: at one of his media conferences where he tells us
- 25:35Speaker 11: how many thousands of houses have got batteries bolted.
- 25:38Speaker 1: Onto the wall.
- 25:39Speaker 11: When he's asked, well, have you got to now stop spending, minister?
- 25:43Speaker 11: Your fellow minister thinks you should.
- 25:45Speaker 2: Well, maybe you should turn up to that press conference,
- 25:47Speaker 2: Deve Cameron. Just before you go, you've written a great
- 25:50Speaker 2: column in The Nightly where you're basically saying that Pauline
- 25:54Speaker 2: Hansen should be giving a budget reply speech perhaps instead
- 25:58Speaker 2: of Angers.
- 25:59Speaker 12: Taylor to your well, to your editorial, I mean Anger's tailor.
- 26:05Speaker 12: The Liberal Party are utterly irrelevant and look, I wish
- 26:07Speaker 12: Tim Wilson all the best is on next. But the
- 26:09Speaker 12: real reality is that people are not voting Liberal any longer.
- 26:11Speaker 12: They're voting one nation in droves, and they've made the choice.
- 26:14Speaker 1: Voters have made the choice.
- 26:15Speaker 12: And so therefore if you're looking at who the alternative
- 26:17Speaker 12: government is, it is an Angus Taylor and the sorrowful
- 26:20Speaker 12: Liberals who are in the Parliament. It is Pauline Hanson
- 26:22Speaker 12: one nation who has set a fire under the voters
- 26:25Speaker 12: out there in Australia and the pharaoh by elections just
- 26:27Speaker 12: the start, all right.
- 26:30Speaker 2: An excellent column that was actually very entertaining read. So
- 26:33Speaker 2: I do recommend people go and read Cameron Milner's column.
- 26:36Speaker 2: Thank you tonight in the night They all right, Steve Price, Cameron,
- 26:38Speaker 2: great to see you, vote all right, and let's bring
- 26:41Speaker 2: in now Shadow Treasurer Tim Wilson, Tim, great to see
- 26:45Speaker 2: you again. Look, I want to start with the proposed
- 26:48Speaker 2: changes to capital gains tax. If this is applied because
- 26:51Speaker 2: you know, people focus on the housing side of it,
- 26:54Speaker 2: but if this is applied to productive assets, including shares
- 26:59Speaker 2: and businesses, this could have a major impact on investors
- 27:02Speaker 2: in startups. It also decreases the incentive to invest at
- 27:06Speaker 2: a time when AI is already posing structural risks to
- 27:09Speaker 2: our economy. So do you think productive assets should be
- 27:13Speaker 2: excluded from the changes?
- 27:17Speaker 13: Well, I think we need to start by saying that
- 27:19Speaker 13: the whole proposal shouldn't be included. Because the government went
- 27:22Speaker 13: to the last election saying that they weren't going to
- 27:25Speaker 13: do it. The Prime minister was red hot with rage
- 27:27Speaker 13: when he said fifty times over I've said I'm not
- 27:30Speaker 13: going to do this, and now he's got over the
- 27:32Speaker 13: election and he's decided to portray the Australian people and
- 27:35Speaker 13: the trust that they gave him.
- 27:37Speaker 6: But there is a.
- 27:38Speaker 13: Material consequence to non property assets. I think a lot
- 27:42Speaker 13: of people were lulled into the argument by the government
- 27:45Speaker 13: that this was just going to be about property and oh,
- 27:47Speaker 13: it doesn't really affect them. I can tell you we're
- 27:50Speaker 13: getting so many stories coming through our not the Tax
- 27:53Speaker 13: website at www dot notthtax dot com dot AU of
- 27:59Speaker 13: young Australian Yeah, well why not the young Australians who
- 28:03Speaker 13: are who have been investing into the future so they
- 28:07Speaker 13: can get a house deposit and now they're finding that
- 28:09Speaker 13: they're going to have double the tax rate on their shares.
- 28:13Speaker 13: And of course we're getting a lot of founders who
- 28:15Speaker 13: are saying we might just leave the country and take
- 28:17Speaker 13: our businesses with us. I found the flight, as it were,
- 28:21Speaker 13: and your points right. We've got AI which is going
- 28:25Speaker 13: to be a critical part of future growth of the economy.
- 28:28Speaker 13: Australia's already one of the homes of so many people
- 28:32Speaker 13: are AI specialists. They already leave overseas in many cases
- 28:36Speaker 13: because they can't secure opportunity here, and this government is
- 28:39Speaker 13: saying to those that are left, get nicked.
- 28:43Speaker 2: Tim, you often speak about intergenerational inequity you have for
- 28:48Speaker 2: your entire political career. Do you therefore agree with Labor
- 28:53Speaker 2: that winding back negative gearing and capital gains tax discounts
- 28:56Speaker 2: would help the young people get into the market or
- 28:59Speaker 2: do you think that these changes, you know, the landlords
- 29:03Speaker 2: would just pass on the increase to renters.
- 29:08Speaker 6: Well, it's not even about what I think.
- 29:10Speaker 13: You just need to go and look at what happened
- 29:12Speaker 13: when Paul Keating did this back in the nineteen eighties
- 29:15Speaker 13: got rid of negative gearing. What happened The price of
- 29:17Speaker 13: rents went up. There's already been modeling been done by
- 29:21Speaker 13: SQ and research which has found that between one hundred
- 29:24Speaker 13: and sixty dollars increase in rent in Sydney per week
- 29:26Speaker 13: one hundred and thirty dollars or thereabouts in Melbourne per
- 29:29Speaker 13: week are a consequence of this change. This isn't going
- 29:33Speaker 13: to do anything for housing supply, and no one's really
- 29:35Speaker 13: arguing that it is. What's the tax that young Australians
- 29:39Speaker 13: pay the most and it's income tax, and so far
- 29:42Speaker 13: we've seen no real effort to reduce that. In fact,
- 29:45Speaker 13: that's the one tax the government's kept stagnant and wants
- 29:48Speaker 13: to continue to reap the benefits of while they simply
- 29:51Speaker 13: seek to go after taxes on other people in the
- 29:54Speaker 13: community increased the cost burden on them.
- 29:58Speaker 2: I was just talking to Paul a bit earlier about
- 30:00Speaker 2: the political impact of breaking an election promise. Do you
- 30:05Speaker 2: think voters will punish the Albanezi government for this or
- 30:08Speaker 2: are they just going to get away with it.
- 30:12Speaker 13: I think voters now no longer look at him with
- 30:15Speaker 13: any sense of trust, and more to the point, the
- 30:18Speaker 13: next time they say we're not going to do that,
- 30:19Speaker 13: we can legitimately turn around and say, well, you know,
- 30:22Speaker 13: fullest once, shame on me, fullest twice. Fall'st one, shame
- 30:26Speaker 13: on you, fullest twice, shame on me. And so I
- 30:30Speaker 13: think the situation now is their credibility is in tatters
- 30:33Speaker 13: on tax and their integrity around it. So I do
- 30:37Speaker 13: think people will start to see through the government and
- 30:40Speaker 13: the dishonesty. But it's ultimately up to a viable alternatively
- 30:44Speaker 13: put forward, and we're putting a lot of work into
- 30:47Speaker 13: making sure that we have an alternative tax vision for
- 30:50Speaker 13: this country so that we can seek to prosecute it.
- 30:53Speaker 13: Because young Australians need hope. The government is letting them
- 30:57Speaker 13: into a paddic of despair and seeking to feed resentment
- 31:00Speaker 13: and fights around family tables.
- 31:03Speaker 6: They need hope for the future.
- 31:05Speaker 2: Well, it seems like at the moment you guys aren't
- 31:07Speaker 2: the alternative that it's one nation. So is the lesson
- 31:11Speaker 2: from Farah that the Liberal Party needs to take more
- 31:15Speaker 2: conservative policy positions.
- 31:20Speaker 6: Well, we are the opposition and one by election does
- 31:23Speaker 6: not make.
- 31:24Speaker 2: Australian and the South Australian result of course, do.
- 31:29Speaker 6: You mean where we're still the opposition?
- 31:32Speaker 13: The reality is and we just had an a p
- 31:34Speaker 13: and by election only last week weekend in Victoria where
- 31:38Speaker 13: the Liberal Party won. So I know Cameron Milner and
- 31:42Speaker 13: others who are part of the Labor Party artifice want
- 31:44Speaker 13: to run this argument.
- 31:45Speaker 6: We have a lot of work to do.
- 31:47Speaker 13: I am under no ambiguity about that. We need to
- 31:50Speaker 13: rebuild trust, we need to strengthen our policy offering and
- 31:53Speaker 13: we need to make sure that Australians believe so strongly
- 31:56Speaker 13: in what we're offering that they're out to prosecute the
- 31:59Speaker 13: case for us, and that's a central part of where
- 32:02Speaker 13: we need to be in the next election. But it's
- 32:04Speaker 13: about actually how do Australians get ahead, And the one
- 32:07Speaker 13: way they don't get ahead is with new taxes, which
- 32:09Speaker 13: is what's been proposed by the Albanese government.
- 32:12Speaker 2: But Tim, I mean this isn't just a political line
- 32:14Speaker 2: run by Labor figures like Cameron Milner. I mean, this
- 32:18Speaker 2: is the result one nation one Farah. It had one,
- 32:21Speaker 2: i think four or five seats in the South Australian
- 32:24Speaker 2: election as well. It is polling ahead of the Liberal
- 32:28Speaker 2: Party and those polling figures have come to fruition at
- 32:33Speaker 2: the ballot box.
- 32:36Speaker 13: And I'm not contesting that there. Every election is different
- 32:39Speaker 13: and every election is up there to be one. The compelling,
- 32:42Speaker 13: the clear story out of Farah, out of state elections
- 32:47Speaker 13: is that once upon a time the pendulum just swung
- 32:50Speaker 13: between Liberal and Labor. I've said many times that is
- 32:53Speaker 13: no longer what happens now.
- 32:55Speaker 6: You need pendulum swings on different.
- 32:57Speaker 13: Axes, and we need to be the most bold, compelling,
- 33:00Speaker 13: confident liberals that we need to be for the future direction.
- 33:04Speaker 2: But just bold in what direction? So doesn't mean more conservative,
- 33:08Speaker 2: which is what one nation is how they're attracting votes.
- 33:13Speaker 13: Well, I don't think it's a choice between left or
- 33:15Speaker 13: right in the old expression of Reagan, it's up or down,
- 33:18Speaker 13: which is we need to be empowering people to live
- 33:21Speaker 13: out their best lives to be respected. Where heart a
- 33:24Speaker 13: nation where hard work pays off and Australians are in
- 33:26Speaker 13: control of their lives. And that's the policy orientation that
- 33:30Speaker 13: we should have.
- 33:31Speaker 2: Just finally, do you think the Liberal Party will have
- 33:34Speaker 2: to consider a governing coalition with one nation to have
- 33:37Speaker 2: any shot at getting back into government? No, Well, the
- 33:43Speaker 2: rate you're going at the moment, you will.
- 33:47Speaker 6: Well watch us all right, I will do that.
- 33:50Speaker 2: Tim Wilson, thank you very much. Still to come, Trump
- 33:55Speaker 2: rejects Iran's latest peace proposal and what does this mean
- 33:58Speaker 2: for the war? Plus the heartbreaking testimony at the Royal
- 34:01Speaker 2: Commission today revealing some Australians no longer one to associate
- 34:06Speaker 2: with Jews. Ray Hadley will be here at the desk
- 34:09Speaker 2: after the break. Welcome back. Well. Tarlie Blickbaugh from the
- 34:16Speaker 2: Door Foundation gave evidence to the Royal Commission into anti Semitism,
- 34:20Speaker 2: which is holding public hearings again this week, and she
- 34:23Speaker 2: spoke about a major survey which showed some Australians were
- 34:27Speaker 2: reluctant to be friends with Jews.
- 34:30Speaker 10: It demonstrates a declining belief in a multicultural Australia. It
- 34:36Speaker 10: shows that attitudes towards the Jewish community have fallen both
- 34:41Speaker 10: in the judaeophobia subscale and the anti Zionism subscale, and
- 34:48Speaker 10: one of the most significant falls was in the willingness
- 34:53Speaker 10: of Australians to have Jewish friends.
- 34:57Speaker 2: So Sad singer Deborah Conway also gave powerful evidence about
- 35:01Speaker 2: how publicly supporting Israel's right to exist has impacted on
- 35:06Speaker 2: her own career. She told the Commission she had been
- 35:09Speaker 2: yelled out, hissed at, and targeted at writers' festivals.
- 35:14Speaker 14: I was walking around the city and all the little
- 35:16Speaker 14: town and people were kind of hissing. There was one
- 35:21Speaker 14: person that hissed at me, shame on you, And I
- 35:24Speaker 14: just thought, wow, you know, it's a kind of a
- 35:28Speaker 14: very strange thing to find in a at a writer's festival.
- 35:34Speaker 2: Johnny minow Is radio legend Ray Hadley Ray, I mean,
- 35:38Speaker 2: if only that were the case. It's not a strange
- 35:40Speaker 2: thing to find anywhere these days.
- 35:42Speaker 15: Really sad. I don't know, Debra Conway, or it might
- 35:45Speaker 15: have for a long time, lovely, but it really hurts
- 35:51Speaker 15: to think that someone who hasn't opposing to you the
- 35:53Speaker 15: many at writers' festivals is hissed at. It's sad to
- 35:58Speaker 15: think the Prime Minister had to be kicking and screaming
- 36:01Speaker 15: to have a royal commission. I mean, everyone's forgotten that
- 36:05Speaker 15: he was speaking about it, talking about it, but not
- 36:08Speaker 15: doing anything about it until eventually someone tapped him on
- 36:11Speaker 15: the shoulder and said this has to happen.
- 36:14Speaker 1: But it took him a long time to get to
- 36:15Speaker 1: that point.
- 36:16Speaker 2: Weeks and weeks, yeah, for.
- 36:17Speaker 1: Sure, and certain.
- 36:18Speaker 15: Look, I've been watching your program tonight and I find
- 36:23Speaker 15: it really distressing that we're talking about the things we're
- 36:28Speaker 15: talking about and the actions of that galute in Melbourne.
- 36:34Speaker 15: And I'm thinking those people who gathered in Melbourne, those
- 36:37Speaker 15: men must be friends or family of the people returning,
- 36:41Speaker 15: including the children. And I don't understand how you can
- 36:45Speaker 15: deradicalize children that are born into those camps. Father being
- 36:49Speaker 15: an ISIS terrorist, mother allegedly a supporter of an ISIS terrorist.
- 36:54Speaker 1: Now apparently to de radicalized children.
- 36:57Speaker 15: Those exposed to ISIS indocrination requires specialized, long term psychological
- 37:03Speaker 15: rehabilitation rather than punitive measures. Effective approaches focus on trauma care, education,
- 37:08Speaker 15: social integration. I think while we're dealing with the children,
- 37:11Speaker 15: I don't know how you achieve that, but there are
- 37:14Speaker 15: some adults that need to be deradicalized. I mean, in
- 37:19Speaker 15: any sense to say to a woman, shut up, you
- 37:22Speaker 15: slut is offensive in the extreme. If you're going to
- 37:28Speaker 15: charge someone at a netball match for offensive language, it's.
- 37:32Speaker 1: Quite clear in all the videos who said it.
- 37:35Speaker 15: Why has Netblake been tapped on the shoulder by the
- 37:37Speaker 15: Victorian police and said.
- 37:37Speaker 1: Come here, you good point. Why isn't he charged?
- 37:41Speaker 15: And the reason I'm distressed as well. I spent much
- 37:45Speaker 15: of my younger years going to netball matches with my
- 37:48Speaker 15: three daughters. And I can tell you that because I'm
- 37:53Speaker 15: involved heavily in rugby league and have been.
- 37:55Speaker 1: You go to a netball.
- 37:56Speaker 15: Match and you misbehave these rather forceful young women and
- 38:02Speaker 15: older women in brown coats come and stand next to
- 38:04Speaker 15: people who want to yell and scream and say, we
- 38:07Speaker 15: don't do that in netball.
- 38:08Speaker 2: Don't tell me, you know about this from experience.
- 38:10Speaker 15: Now, I've watched other people be marched off Blake's my size,
- 38:14Speaker 15: marched off the court by smaller, older ladies. And so
- 38:18Speaker 15: to think it's got the stage allegedly where someone supporting
- 38:22Speaker 15: an under twelve netball team is going to go to
- 38:26Speaker 15: that length in front of Jewish people is just shameful.
- 38:33Speaker 15: And then the evidence again from the Royal Commission to
- 38:35Speaker 15: say that. And I count among many of my friends
- 38:39Speaker 15: people of all faith, you know, whether they be Maronite
- 38:43Speaker 15: Christians from Lebanon, or be Muslims or Catholics or Calithampians.
- 38:48Speaker 15: But many of my very close friends are Jewish people.
- 38:52Speaker 15: And I'm proud to say it, and I'll keep saying it.
- 38:54Speaker 15: As a matter of fact, I spent a week in
- 38:56Speaker 15: New Zealand last week and two gentlemen approached.
- 39:00Speaker 1: In a place called arrow Town. They're your viewers.
- 39:03Speaker 15: They live in Victoria, and they came up and pat
- 39:06Speaker 15: me on the back and said thanks for what you said.
- 39:08Speaker 15: After what happened in December when I was with you
- 39:11Speaker 15: down there at.
- 39:11Speaker 2: BONDI, I'll never forget that you came down to the
- 39:14Speaker 2: memorial site where we're having the show and you spoke
- 39:17Speaker 2: from the heart with such anger and passion at what
- 39:22Speaker 2: had just happened, and everyone was gathering around.
- 39:25Speaker 15: You and well because at that time Chris Mens was
- 39:30Speaker 15: doing his best, but the Prime Minister was never to
- 39:33Speaker 15: be cited. And on the Prime minister. Look, I've been
- 39:37Speaker 15: watching stuff all week.
- 39:40Speaker 1: James A.
- 39:40Speaker 15: Doherty has been heavy one of your colleagues from the
- 39:42Speaker 15: Daily Telegraph, and I work with his dad at bearing stages, Steve,
- 39:46Speaker 15: but I commend him. He's got the bottle to stand
- 39:50Speaker 15: up for the Prime minister and say fifty times he
- 39:54Speaker 15: didn't just deny it. He berated James and others in
- 39:57Speaker 15: the media for saying, you know, are you sure about
- 40:01Speaker 15: negative yearing? Are you sure about capital gain? And he
- 40:04Speaker 15: berated them. And now we learn today by the Sydney
- 40:07Speaker 15: Morning Herald that they've hatched this plan shortly after they're
- 40:11Speaker 15: stunning victory and they had no mandate. People who've got
- 40:15Speaker 15: to understand a mandate is an announcement, like John Howard said,
- 40:20Speaker 15: jst is going to come in.
- 40:21Speaker 1: He nearly lost the election because of that.
- 40:24Speaker 15: But you've got to have the bottle, You've got to
- 40:25Speaker 15: have the courage to announce your plans to the electorate
- 40:28Speaker 15: before you're elected.
- 40:30Speaker 1: He denied it. He's a liar.
- 40:34Speaker 15: I mean, I don't take any great pleasure. It's the
- 40:36Speaker 15: highest position in the country, our prime minister. But our
- 40:39Speaker 15: prime minister is.
- 40:40Speaker 1: A liar and he's allowed to get away with it.
- 40:43Speaker 2: There's so many examples of it now, whether it's falling
- 40:46Speaker 2: off the stage, whether it's saying the story about the
- 40:48Speaker 2: Isis Brides coming home was wrong, there's this. I mean that,
- 40:51Speaker 2: there are just so many examples where he has misled
- 40:55Speaker 2: or lied to Australians. And the reason I had Paul
- 40:59Speaker 2: on it earlier is because he found out that Albaniz
- 41:02Speaker 2: he made this call back in December, which, as you say,
- 41:05Speaker 2: is what six seven months after the election.
- 41:09Speaker 15: He thinks he got a mandate, Prime Minister. You don't
- 41:11Speaker 15: have a man unless you tell us what you're going
- 41:13Speaker 15: to do. That's when you've got a mandate. If you
- 41:15Speaker 15: told us that when o'dahity and others were questioning you
- 41:18Speaker 15: and said, yes, I'm going to do something about capital
- 41:21Speaker 15: gains tax negative gearing, that's your mandate. But you have
- 41:24Speaker 15: no mandate. And I'll tell you what else you've got.
- 41:26Speaker 15: You've got no heart, no heart whatsoever. Hart the size
- 41:31Speaker 15: of a Carraway seed. And look then you come, of
- 41:36Speaker 15: course to what happened in Farah. And my early days
- 41:40Speaker 15: of broadcasting was coinciding with a talk radio I'm talking about,
- 41:45Speaker 15: not sport, was with the elevation of Pauline Hanson.
- 41:48Speaker 1: And I like Pauline Hanson.
- 41:49Speaker 15: I know that I've been critical over I have a
- 41:51Speaker 15: couple of things on this program, but I genuinely like her.
- 41:53Speaker 1: I think she's a.
- 41:54Speaker 15: Pretty decent person that sometimes shoots from the hip and
- 41:59Speaker 15: is a bit of a scattergun approach, but that's who
- 42:01Speaker 15: she is. But I think it's fantastic that finally, finally,
- 42:06Speaker 15: there appears to be an opposition and if those in
- 42:10Speaker 15: the Liberal Party want to know why they did so
- 42:11Speaker 15: poorly and Pauline did so well. And I've been saying
- 42:14Speaker 15: this for years. Not since Tony Abbott, with all due
- 42:18Speaker 15: respect the Scott Morrison, and not since John Howard have
- 42:21Speaker 15: we had a liberal leader espousing liberal views. And now
- 42:25Speaker 15: we have a leader that's got less traction than the predecessor.
- 42:30Speaker 15: And then Andrew Hasty, who I thought was open the side,
- 42:33Speaker 15: tells me that Malcolm Turnbull's a genius. I believe I mean,
- 42:38Speaker 15: who was a Labor Prime minister mascarading as a Liberal
- 42:40Speaker 15: prime minister. What the Liberal Party need to do? And
- 42:45Speaker 15: Pauline Hanson's doing it. She's responding to what most Australians
- 42:50Speaker 15: from the right think they need to provide an opposition
- 42:53Speaker 15: to the Labor Party, not be centrist and not just
- 42:57Speaker 15: say well, look, climate change, it's a real thing, so
- 43:01Speaker 15: we've got to really observe it. I mean, we've got
- 43:04Speaker 15: to allow wind farms to go all over rural parts
- 43:06Speaker 15: of Australia. And I'm convinced. I don't know whether Barnaby's
- 43:09Speaker 15: right about Western City, but I am convinced that in
- 43:12Speaker 15: sort of heartland stuff, in rural Queensland and rural New
- 43:15Speaker 15: South Wales, one nation is going to do very very well.
- 43:19Speaker 15: They can't govern, but they'll do very very well. And
- 43:22Speaker 15: the sooner we find a liberal leader that leans a
- 43:25Speaker 15: bit further to the right than the current mob, the
- 43:28Speaker 15: better off we're going to be.
- 43:29Speaker 2: So I've had the same view that one nation can't govern,
- 43:32Speaker 2: they're not going to get into government. But you know
- 43:35Speaker 2: what I've been thinking after the Pharaoh result, well, perhaps
- 43:40Speaker 2: if their primary vote is that high, if it's not
- 43:42Speaker 2: just in regional areas because I'm sure, like me, Ray,
- 43:46Speaker 2: you speak to a lot of people who are now
- 43:48Speaker 2: saying that they'll support one nation, and so if their
- 43:52Speaker 2: primary vote is that high, well perhaps they would be competitive.
- 43:56Speaker 2: I mean, maybe it's this Donald Trump model. Remember, however,
- 43:58Speaker 2: and said Donald Trump will will never win on whatever
- 44:01Speaker 2: vote for him. I mean maybe it's a similar model.
- 44:04Speaker 1: Look.
- 44:04Speaker 15: I made a comment today and made the Telegraph that
- 44:08Speaker 15: if I had said what I'm about to say ten
- 44:10Speaker 15: years ago or five years ago, that Nagel Faraji is
- 44:13Speaker 15: likely to be the next UK Prime minister, they get
- 44:15Speaker 15: the straight jacket out and say, poor old Haadle, he's
- 44:17Speaker 15: gone mad. But that's what's going to happen on the
- 44:19Speaker 15: back of the council elections for sure and certain.
- 44:22Speaker 1: Anyway, I've gone it too long.
- 44:23Speaker 2: Thank you so much, you're the best. Thank you for
- 44:25Speaker 2: being here.
- 44:26Speaker 1: Lovely to be with it.
- 44:27Speaker 2: We'll see you next route still to come. An Australian
- 44:30Speaker 2: by an MP comes after Keirs Starmer's job plus the
- 44:33Speaker 2: on again, off again peace deal between Trump and Iran.
- 44:36Speaker 2: That's after the break. Welcome back and let's bring you now.
- 44:42Speaker 2: Sky News contributor Kosher Gada Kosha great to see you. Look,
- 44:46Speaker 2: President Trump has rejected Iran's latest so called peace offer,
- 44:51Speaker 2: a peace offer. He says it's totally unacceptable, and he's
- 44:54Speaker 2: posted online about it. So what are Trump's reasons for
- 44:59Speaker 2: reject taking this light is proposal? And what do we
- 45:02Speaker 2: actually know about what Iran is putting forward?
- 45:07Speaker 16: Not all the details, unfortunately, are public, but when we
- 45:11Speaker 16: boil it down, it's this now fabled fourteen point plan.
- 45:14Speaker 16: There have been various versions of this. That's the current
- 45:16Speaker 16: one on the table, and the impasse seems to center
- 45:19Speaker 16: around three things. One is the nuclear threat, and the
- 45:24Speaker 16: US and President Trump are saying moratorium on any and
- 45:27Speaker 16: all nuclear enrichment for twenty years, and the Ranians are
- 45:30Speaker 16: saying that's too much, and they're sort of cabbling back
- 45:33Speaker 16: from that, saying it's got to be a shorter term
- 45:34Speaker 16: and it's not going to be any and all enrichment,
- 45:36Speaker 16: And I think the devil is in the details in there.
- 45:39Speaker 16: The second one is on the strait where Iran has
- 45:41Speaker 16: successfully flexed that muscle, I think for all the world
- 45:44Speaker 16: to see, and knows that that's a leverage point. And
- 45:47Speaker 16: so the US is saying open it up completely, no
- 45:50Speaker 16: more issues at all or holding the world hostage to that,
- 45:53Speaker 16: and Iran is saying, well, we still want since they
- 45:56Speaker 16: know it's a leverage point, they want some control mechanism
- 45:58Speaker 16: or some ability to shut it or charge it all
- 46:01Speaker 16: or things like that. And I think that's what Trump
- 46:03Speaker 16: was referring to when he said absolutely not. And then
- 46:06Speaker 16: the third is around sanctions and security guarantees, where Iran
- 46:09Speaker 16: wants the US to provide some guarantee that they will
- 46:11Speaker 16: not attack them again, and obviously the US sees that
- 46:14Speaker 16: as their biggest leverage point and doesn't want to concede
- 46:16Speaker 16: on that before agreeing to the other three. So we're
- 46:18Speaker 16: in the thick of negotiations and as of today it
- 46:21Speaker 16: seems like we're haven't made much progress, but hopefully the
- 46:25Speaker 16: details underneath that are moving towards some sort of closure
- 46:28Speaker 16: of the gap.
- 46:30Speaker 2: The absolute worst outcome would be if the war ends
- 46:33Speaker 2: in Iran has control or some sort of control over
- 46:36Speaker 2: the Strait of homemovies. I mean, that would really be
- 46:41Speaker 2: a decisive victory for them. Nevinaho gave an interview to
- 46:45Speaker 2: American television overnight. Let's have a quick look.
- 46:48Speaker 17: I think it accomplished a great deal, but it's not
- 46:50Speaker 17: over because there's still nuclear material, enrich uranium that has
- 46:54Speaker 17: to be taken out of Iran. There is still enrichment
- 46:58Speaker 17: sites that have to be dismantled, There are still proxies
- 47:03Speaker 17: that Iran supports. There are ballistic missiles that they still
- 47:07Speaker 17: want to produce. Now we've degraded a lot of it,
- 47:10Speaker 17: but all of that is still there and there's work
- 47:13Speaker 17: to be done.
- 47:14Speaker 2: Yes, a pretty good indication that he doesn't think the
- 47:17Speaker 2: war should be over right now. But Kosho, I'm keen
- 47:21Speaker 2: to ask you about this Australian bond UK Labor and
- 47:24Speaker 2: P who is threatening Kiyostama tell us about this.
- 47:29Speaker 16: Yes, So obviously the elections that just happened was kind
- 47:33Speaker 16: of a bloodbath for Labor Party. They lost eleven hundred
- 47:36Speaker 16: to fifteen hundred seats and in general care Starmer's the
- 47:40Speaker 16: shine has been off him. He's been mired in a
- 47:42Speaker 16: lot of political heat and after those election results it
- 47:45Speaker 16: creates a wide opening for the machinations, you know, within
- 47:49Speaker 16: the party. So Catherine West, who's Australia born from Mansfield, Victoria, MP,
- 47:55Speaker 16: she's sort of putting her hand up not so much
- 47:58Speaker 16: to maybe displace him though, that's certainly possible more to
- 48:01Speaker 16: be a stocking horse where she could get the party started,
- 48:05Speaker 16: as they say, to get other people who have more
- 48:07Speaker 16: votes and more support than her to finally step up
- 48:10Speaker 16: and directly challenge Kure Starmer. And many are saying that
- 48:14Speaker 16: his days really are numbered right now. The Energy Minister,
- 48:17Speaker 16: the Health Minister of various MPs seem to have short
- 48:20Speaker 16: up support but just haven't been willing to go there.
- 48:22Speaker 16: And she's kind of rising up and triggering that process.
- 48:26Speaker 16: And I think a lot will be revealed really in
- 48:28Speaker 16: short over the next twenty four to forty eight hours.
- 48:32Speaker 6: As soon as that all.
- 48:34Speaker 2: Right, Kosha, I really appreciate your time. Thank you, and
- 48:37Speaker 2: after the breakout, tell you how many people have now
- 48:39Speaker 2: put in submissions to the Royal Commission. Before we go,
- 48:48Speaker 2: I want to show you another excellent point that Tylie
- 48:50Speaker 2: Blickbaugh from the Door Foundation said today about the confusion
- 48:54Speaker 2: over anti Semitism.
- 48:57Speaker 10: Many people don't self identify is antisemitic, but the research
- 49:02Speaker 10: shows that when you replace the word Jew with the
- 49:04Speaker 10: word Zionism, the same hatred, the same prejudice exists.
- 49:10Speaker 14: That you inquire of the respondent what their understanding of
- 49:15Speaker 14: zion isn't.
- 49:16Speaker 10: It Yes, And in fact most can't define it.
- 49:22Speaker 2: And the antisemitism Royal Commission has now heard from almost
- 49:26Speaker 2: ten thousand Australians, almost ten thousand submissions, more than six
- 49:31Speaker 2: thousand from Jewish Australians, and that tells you that something
- 49:35Speaker 2: has badly gone wrong in this country. I mean there
- 49:38Speaker 2: are only around one hundred to one hundred and twenty
- 49:41Speaker 2: thousand Jews living in Australia, so it means roughly five
- 49:46Speaker 2: percent of the entire Jewish community has felt compelled to
- 49:50Speaker 2: make a submission. All right, I won't be here tomorrow
- 49:53Speaker 2: night because it's the Federal budget, so I'll see you
- 49:56Speaker 2: on Wednesday at eight pm. That's it for me. And
- 49:59Speaker 2: up now, poor married life.
