- 0:11Speaker 1: East Report tonight, Sports and Ruts Minister Anika Wells refers
- 0:18Speaker 1: her expenses to a parliamentary watchdog, who will it be
- 0:21Speaker 1: enough to savor more of her extraordiniques as her extra
- 0:26Speaker 1: expenses emerge more Today, by the way, the Reserve Bank
- 0:29Speaker 1: governor warns forget more interest rate cuts. The next move
- 0:33Speaker 1: looks like up and Donald Trump attacks an ethnic group
- 0:36Speaker 1: after cheats rob taxpayers of a billion dollars or even
- 0:40Speaker 1: more and lots more tonight, including Meccanavan Andanessa Kraku. At
- 0:44Speaker 1: first Australian pride in our western culture, they're being erased
- 0:50Speaker 1: by our bureaucratic elites. And today we saw very serious
- 0:54Speaker 1: examples of this cultural destruction. The most dramatic was Victoria's
- 0:58Speaker 1: labor governent apologized into the one percent of Victorian's identifying
- 1:02Speaker 1: as Aborigines. For the supposed horrors of colonialism committed by
- 1:08Speaker 1: the state Parliament.
- 1:10Speaker 2: For the tears shedding the dark, for the stolen generation,
- 1:13Speaker 2: for the violence committed under the banner of the state.
- 1:16Speaker 2: We say sorry, And.
- 1:20Speaker 1: Already a fact check, a little fact in fact, a
- 1:24Speaker 1: massive fact check. What stolen generation was Premier Allen apologizing
- 1:29Speaker 1: for in Victoria? There never was one. In two thousand
- 1:36Speaker 1: and three, a Stolen Generation's task force, led by an
- 1:40Speaker 1: Aboriginal activist, Jim Berg and appointed by a state labor government,
- 1:45Speaker 1: concluded there had, in fact been no formal policy for
- 1:49Speaker 1: removing children from Aboriginal parents in the state none. Even
- 1:56Speaker 1: more startling, the task force found thirty six organization were
- 1:59Speaker 1: supposed to helping the state's stolen generations. Yet the task
- 2:03Speaker 1: force did not identify one truly stolen child, not one,
- 2:11Speaker 1: and by that I mean a child stolen from their
- 2:13Speaker 1: parents just for being Aboriginal, even though this taskfort has
- 2:16Speaker 1: run advertisements pleading for them to come forward. Instead, here's
- 2:23Speaker 1: the thing. The task force used a broad and I
- 2:27Speaker 1: think deceitful definition of stolen generations to mean those separated
- 2:32Speaker 1: at a young age from community or family, language, land,
- 2:37Speaker 1: or culture, as well as the families of that separated child,
- 2:41Speaker 1: which turned out to include children have been abused or abandoned,
- 2:47Speaker 1: or even children have just complained they've been sent by
- 2:49Speaker 1: their parents the boarding school. And that is not stolen,
- 2:55Speaker 1: not in my book and no doubt in yours. So
- 2:58Speaker 1: why did the Premier today spread that toxic falsehood apologize
- 3:03Speaker 1: for something that never happened. Now he's just got an
- 3:07Speaker 1: Aboriginal truth telling commission called Europe. What a face that is?
- 3:11Speaker 1: Why didn't it tell these truths? Instead we get this
- 3:15Speaker 1: joy in wallowing and white guilt and also in white cash.
- 3:20Speaker 1: I mean, I talk about an aboriginal industry for a reason.
- 3:23Speaker 1: And on that more news today, the Victorian government tried
- 3:26Speaker 1: to hid documents that gave that game away. But thanksman
- 3:30Speaker 1: if I request, the Herald's son could today report that
- 3:34Speaker 1: not only does this labor government's new treaty with Aboriginal
- 3:37Speaker 1: activist supercharge compensation payments for Aborigines, but the government has
- 3:42Speaker 1: already handed over more than one hundred million dollars to
- 3:46Speaker 1: just two Aboriginal groups already, including to one as chief executive. Clearly,
- 3:51Speaker 1: despite his splendid Feathers also has substantial white ancestry himself,
- 3:57Speaker 1: the ancestry of his of the supposed oprahs. And this
- 4:02Speaker 1: of course raises the question and not just you know,
- 4:04Speaker 1: who should really be getting these payments, People whose own
- 4:07Speaker 1: ancestors include colonizers, while people like me with ancestors born
- 4:13Speaker 1: overseas we should pay them. There's also this though, for
- 4:20Speaker 1: what was Premier Allen today actually apologizing apart from a
- 4:26Speaker 1: stolen generation history in Victoria which doesn't seem to exist.
- 4:31Speaker 1: Was she apologizing for these colonizers bringing democracy, western medicine, Oh,
- 4:38Speaker 1: sorry about that, the rule of law, literacy, and modern
- 4:42Speaker 1: farming techniques that have ensured that no Aborigines would ever
- 4:47Speaker 1: again starf to death in a famine. Oh, I do
- 4:50Speaker 1: apologize for that, and for then developing a welfare system
- 4:54Speaker 1: delivering tens of bilities of dollars a year to Aboriginal Australians.
- 4:57Speaker 1: None of the good of colonization was mentioned today. None
- 5:01Speaker 1: of the good unless the sentence of Aborigines live in
- 5:05Speaker 1: comforts now unknown in traditional Aboriginal societies. So you got
- 5:11Speaker 1: asked why politicians vilify our path like this, why they
- 5:15Speaker 1: raise resentments divide us by race? And I think it
- 5:19Speaker 1: can only be explained by their fashionable shame that the
- 5:22Speaker 1: elites feel of the West, of our past, of their
- 5:27Speaker 1: race of Australia. Only all that, only that can explain it,
- 5:31Speaker 1: that self hating shame. Only that could allow this ludicrous
- 5:37Speaker 1: exercise of dividing us by race and apologizing for a
- 5:40Speaker 1: history that actually included much good among the bad, at
- 5:46Speaker 1: least praise the Liberals and national parties for refusing today
- 5:49Speaker 1: to back that apology and for rejecting this racist idea
- 5:53Speaker 1: of inherited shame to be felt by people who weren't
- 5:57Speaker 1: even alive at the time of the alleged crime. Answersts
- 6:00Speaker 1: weren't even in Australia. But I ask labor what good
- 6:05Speaker 1: they truly think they're doing and what support they think
- 6:08Speaker 1: they have for this divisive and performative apology and this
- 6:12Speaker 1: dishonestory writing of our history, because I know I'm certain
- 6:17Speaker 1: that they know that most Victorians reject this. I mean,
- 6:21Speaker 1: why else do they keep secret how easy the treaty
- 6:25Speaker 1: will now make it for Aboriginal activists to get massive handouts.
- 6:29Speaker 1: Now one of the activists love the treaty in this
- 6:32Speaker 1: whole race industry with that secrecy, that tells me that
- 6:36Speaker 1: Labour knows this taxpayer funded pity party is too much
- 6:41Speaker 1: for most Australians, particularly at this cost of living crisis.
- 6:47Speaker 1: But there's one other story this week I want to
- 6:49Speaker 1: mention that shows how a shame of our traditions ritks
- 6:53Speaker 1: destroying exactly what has made this country so secure and
- 6:57Speaker 1: safe that millions have come from around the world to
- 7:00Speaker 1: share our good luck. The Australia yesterday reported that the
- 7:04Speaker 1: Federal Court judges ruled the key evidence behind the decision
- 7:07Speaker 1: of former Federal Environment Misstania Plipzek to block a one
- 7:12Speaker 1: billion dollar Blainey gold mine development will be locked away
- 7:17Speaker 1: for up to thirty years now, just as James Stelios said,
- 7:21Speaker 1: he wanted to protect what he considers cultural sensitivities and
- 7:24Speaker 1: to uphold Indigenous traditional law by stopping the rest of
- 7:28Speaker 1: us from knowing just what these alleged Aboriginal beliefs were
- 7:32Speaker 1: that stopped the mind. Now our British inherited Western tradition
- 7:41Speaker 1: is open justice. Now you know, here's the reasons a
- 7:47Speaker 1: court relied on to make that decision. No secrets check
- 7:51Speaker 1: for yourself, except of course, in very limited circumstances, usually
- 7:55Speaker 1: involving say things like national security or whatever. But instead
- 7:58Speaker 1: of upholding that tradition, this judge, who is unusually appointed
- 8:04Speaker 1: last years straight from academia, ruled that while I consider
- 8:08Speaker 1: that a confidentiality order over the oral representations will have
- 8:11Speaker 1: a detrimental impact on open justice, bad for open justice,
- 8:16Speaker 1: I except that the weradary traditional owner Central Western Aboriginal
- 8:20Speaker 1: Corporation's defense in this proceeding of the making of the
- 8:24Speaker 1: declaration should not come at the cost of culturally sensitive
- 8:28Speaker 1: information being publicly disclosed, which turns out to be very
- 8:33Speaker 1: convenient for this group of our alleged traditional owners headed
- 8:38Speaker 1: by this man, to be promoting sacred site claims of
- 8:43Speaker 1: this artist, Nairy Reynolds, who was backed by a leader
- 8:47Speaker 1: another leader of this oragerary traditional owners group, Lisa Payton,
- 8:52Speaker 1: or claiming a sacred bee would be disturbed by the
- 8:56Speaker 1: mind's tailings dam a claim actually questioned by a well
- 9:00Speaker 1: known anthropologist, doctor Phillip Clark, and by another and better
- 9:04Speaker 1: known worrajury group. In fact, that other group include well
- 9:10Speaker 1: known our Ajuri leader Roy R c who said it
- 9:12Speaker 1: would this ban is dead against it. Would you know
- 9:18Speaker 1: the ban on reading this court evidence, it would let
- 9:23Speaker 1: self appointed traditional owners block projects with bastardized claims of
- 9:28Speaker 1: Aboriginal culture and all without fear of public scrutiny. He said,
- 9:32Speaker 1: of course, they're just going to hide their evidence or
- 9:34Speaker 1: so called evidence. And he said these people can now
- 9:38Speaker 1: use this process is set up a corporation, come out,
- 9:41Speaker 1: call themselves a traditional owner, and then bang, you can
- 9:43Speaker 1: stop a major project. Now whether it's those other were
- 9:49Speaker 1: rajury people are mentioned, the ones talking about sacred bees,
- 9:52Speaker 1: who will specifically be protected by this gag order. I
- 9:57Speaker 1: can't be absolutely sure there's a gag order. We're not.
- 10:00Speaker 1: No files are sealed because the Western culture of open
- 10:06Speaker 1: justice has now given way here to an Aboriginal culture
- 10:10Speaker 1: of secret business. And that scares me because personally, I
- 10:16Speaker 1: think we're all safer living under Australian law, Western ways
- 10:21Speaker 1: and Aboriginal But dare we now even say that, because
- 10:26Speaker 1: that's one more British or Western tradition being a raised
- 10:30Speaker 1: free speech along with reason, as our elites panda to
- 10:34Speaker 1: the tribal and to the mystical instead, it gets no
- 10:42Speaker 1: better for Federal Sports and Communications mister Anaka Wells. In
- 10:45Speaker 1: this afternoon she began to crack. It seems the latest
- 10:48Speaker 1: evidence of us spending like a Rockefeller on herself with
- 10:51Speaker 1: taxpayer money has just been too much. This time the
- 10:55Speaker 1: news that she kept Commonwealth cars and drivers waiting on
- 10:59Speaker 1: the close up to ten hours while she was off
- 11:03Speaker 1: watching tennis or NRL or AFL grand finals bills are
- 11:08Speaker 1: around one thousand dollars a pop or even more. Rather
- 11:12Speaker 1: than catch taxis there and back and save us all
- 11:14Speaker 1: a motza. This afternoon, Wells issued a statement to try
- 11:18Speaker 1: and save her career, she'd get her expensive checked by
- 11:21Speaker 1: the Independent umpire instead. I remained confident on my travel
- 11:25Speaker 1: and expenses is within the framework. But for the avoid
- 11:27Speaker 1: it's of doubt. I have self preferred my expenditure the
- 11:30Speaker 1: Independent Parliamentary Expenses Authority for an audit. I'm not sure
- 11:33Speaker 1: this is going to save her, not when you add
- 11:36Speaker 1: those com card bills, through all that other extraorine spending
- 11:40Speaker 1: by Wells of taxpayer money, keeping conf cars, waiting of course,
- 11:46Speaker 1: or even more like you know, flying her husband and
- 11:51Speaker 1: children to ski at Threadbow, flying her husband down for
- 11:54Speaker 1: Boxing day tests and Grand finals, mostly without the kids
- 11:57Speaker 1: by the way, Flying to New York on tickets more
- 12:00Speaker 1: than thirty thousand dollars a pop, thank you very much,
- 12:03Speaker 1: Flying to Adelaide for a girlfriend's birthday, and more. And
- 12:06Speaker 1: I hear the weakest excuses. Oh, but other politicians also
- 12:09Speaker 1: do it, will damn them all then, as if that
- 12:12Speaker 1: makes it okay? But do they really all do it
- 12:15Speaker 1: like she does to this extent? And then I read
- 12:18Speaker 1: the wife of a former Liberal MP, Julian Simmons, say,
- 12:21Speaker 1: oh no, she's behind Welles for trying to keep a
- 12:24Speaker 1: family together by using family reunion, travel entitlements for politicians
- 12:28Speaker 1: family reunion, flying the husband to top sports events just
- 12:34Speaker 1: for the day and leaving the kids behind me. Seriously,
- 12:38Speaker 1: pull the other leg and how does this excuse well
- 12:40Speaker 1: spending seventeen hundred dollars on food and drinks and just
- 12:44Speaker 1: one night for just her two staff and austrain and
- 12:47Speaker 1: ambassador seventeen hundred dollars. Joining me is our regular Tuesday
- 12:53Speaker 1: commentator Matt Canavan, the National's MP and form of Resources.
- 12:56Speaker 1: Miss the Matt, great to see you. Look, you know
- 13:00Speaker 1: the scandal is scarring and scaring the government because Wells's
- 13:05Speaker 1: Communications minister has gone into harding just one day before
- 13:09Speaker 1: her new ban on children using social media starts. Her
- 13:12Speaker 1: biggest mover's minister and she's too scared to go out
- 13:16Speaker 1: and talk about it. If she's that's useless, Sacho right,
- 13:19Speaker 1: Look Andrew.
- 13:20Speaker 3: If she can't do a job, she shouldn't be in it.
- 13:23Speaker 3: It's as simple as that. And as you say, this
- 13:25Speaker 3: is probably the most important week as a communications minister
- 13:30Speaker 3: in this term of government. It's a world leading change
- 13:33Speaker 3: to social media I'm concerned that we'll have a lot
- 13:36Speaker 3: of issues with it. We need a minister on the
- 13:38Speaker 3: job here able to explain things to Australian parents, deal
- 13:41Speaker 3: with any gremlins that are in the system, and clearly
- 13:43Speaker 3: Anaka Wells can't do that. So at the very least
- 13:45Speaker 3: the Prime Minister here should suspend Anaka Wells. She's racked
- 13:49Speaker 3: up way too many demerit points in front of judiciary here.
- 13:54Speaker 3: Too many of these troops have got too much question
- 13:57Speaker 3: marks on them, and I fear though this is just
- 13:59Speaker 3: a ball faced attempt to get the official rule maker
- 14:03Speaker 3: he to say that while each individual one is not
- 14:05Speaker 3: a problem, but clearly added up here this minister is
- 14:09Speaker 3: taking the Istralian people for a ride, a big ride,
- 14:13Speaker 3: a very costly ride. There's no way that the amount
- 14:17Speaker 3: of spending we've seen here, the pattern of it, the
- 14:19Speaker 3: repeated nature of it, is in any way connected to
- 14:23Speaker 3: the need for a Minister of the Crown to spend
- 14:25Speaker 3: your money in accordance with a value for money test.
- 14:29Speaker 3: Because yes, there are literal rules, but you also mastered
- 14:31Speaker 3: by by the principle that you're getting value for the
- 14:34Speaker 3: spending of other people's money. And the key principle here
- 14:36Speaker 3: is that I don't think Anika well seems to be
- 14:38Speaker 3: all that concerned about the fact that it's other people's
- 14:42Speaker 3: money she is spending. Given the drinks, the night out
- 14:45Speaker 3: you mentioned earlier, the comcar waiting for seven hours, it's
- 14:48Speaker 3: a pattern of behavior that needs to be stopped and
- 14:50Speaker 3: a message should be sent by the Primise. The Prime
- 14:51Speaker 3: Minister here needs to apply standards, just like the former
- 14:54Speaker 3: Liberal National Party set standards. Robin Bishop didn't breach any rules,
- 14:58Speaker 3: Susan Lee, our current lead breech rules, but they paid
- 15:01Speaker 3: a price here paid a price then for making a mistake.
- 15:04Speaker 3: Annaka Wells has made a mistake here. She should pay
- 15:06Speaker 3: a price, not saying she should be sacked from Parliament.
- 15:09Speaker 3: Needs to spend a bit of time in Coventry, and
- 15:10Speaker 3: as I say, there needs to be an example set
- 15:12Speaker 3: that you shouldn't spend tax payers money with gay abandon
- 15:16Speaker 3: like Annaka Wells has.
- 15:19Speaker 1: The Prime Minister then was left with the job of
- 15:23Speaker 1: trying to sell this band tomorrow, and he did it
- 15:26Speaker 1: by saying, you know who cares about social media? Here's
- 15:31Speaker 1: this missress to the kids.
- 15:33Speaker 4: Make the most of the school holidays coming up, rather
- 15:36Speaker 4: than spending it scrolling on your phone, start a new sport,
- 15:40Speaker 4: learn a new instrument, or read that book that's been
- 15:43Speaker 4: sitting there on your shelf for some time, and importantly,
- 15:47Speaker 4: spend quality time with your friends and your family face
- 15:51Speaker 4: to face.
- 15:52Speaker 1: Mccinavan, you're a father of five. Do you endorse that
- 15:55Speaker 1: message and did we really need a band on social
- 15:57Speaker 1: media to send it?
- 16:00Speaker 3: There's nothing wrong with a message'd be great. I'm kind
- 16:02Speaker 3: of constant battle with my children to get outside and
- 16:04Speaker 3: play more, etc. But look, I don't think the Prime
- 16:08Speaker 3: Minister saying it is going to make all that much difference.
- 16:10Speaker 3: So the Prime Minister the government can't substitute for a parent,
- 16:14Speaker 3: and it's up to each individual parent to do these things. Look,
- 16:18Speaker 3: I mean, I think let's be serious here. While we
- 16:20Speaker 3: all want our children to be outside and do these things,
- 16:22Speaker 3: in the real world, it's pretty hard to keep kids
- 16:27Speaker 3: off this type of technology, and as at least in
- 16:30Speaker 3: my household, of what I try and do with my
- 16:31Speaker 3: wife is just find a balance. There are some positive
- 16:34Speaker 3: things about social media too. There's lots of good content
- 16:38Speaker 3: on YouTube and I'll keep Sky News out of this.
- 16:43Speaker 3: With present companies scap accepted, but Honestly, a lot of
- 16:45Speaker 3: the crap that's on free to air TV is much
- 16:47Speaker 3: worse than what I see my kids watch on YouTube.
- 16:49Speaker 3: They watch history, they watch stuff about religion, about politics.
- 16:55Speaker 3: It's very, very interesting. But it is just about monitoring
- 16:58Speaker 3: that I finding that balance, and this particular change from
- 17:01Speaker 3: Australian government is a sledgehammer to crack and nut. I
- 17:04Speaker 3: don't think it's going to keep too many kids off
- 17:06Speaker 3: social media. It may, though, it make it very hard
- 17:10Speaker 3: for grandma to keep up with their ground kids on
- 17:13Speaker 3: social media because they could be locked out if they
- 17:15Speaker 3: can't get around the hoops of verifying their age.
- 17:20Speaker 1: Just quickly amounted time. But I've just got to ask you,
- 17:22Speaker 1: Barnaby Joyce now has formally joined one Nation. You're obviously
- 17:26Speaker 1: astonished and surprised at the news, but what threat is
- 17:31Speaker 1: this for the nationals?
- 17:34Speaker 3: Look, I think the threat was there before, Barnaby. The
- 17:37Speaker 3: threat is there because people don't think they're getting a
- 17:40Speaker 3: fair deal in modern Australia. In modern Australia, the borders
- 17:47Speaker 3: are open, small businesses are closing, industries are closing, Our
- 17:53Speaker 3: factories are going offshore. People can't afford a home and
- 17:57Speaker 3: that frustration is clearly leading to people thinking that maybe
- 18:01Speaker 3: the major parties aren't don't have the solution. So the
- 18:04Speaker 3: challenge for us is not whether Barnaby or not. Challenge
- 18:07Speaker 3: for us is to get back to focusing on what
- 18:09Speaker 3: we should be, which is advocating for fighting, for delivering
- 18:13Speaker 3: for the Australian people in this government. This government we've
- 18:16Speaker 3: got right now is focused on spending one hundred thousand
- 18:19Speaker 3: dollars to go to the United Nations to get applause,
- 18:22Speaker 3: not not on protecting air industries, protecting our jobs and
- 18:25Speaker 3: actually closing our borders, keeping keeping some control of our
- 18:30Speaker 3: borders so that the Australian people get a fair dea
- 18:32Speaker 3: at first.
- 18:34Speaker 1: I'll be speaking about that issue later in the show.
- 18:36Speaker 1: Mc canevan, thank you very much for your time. I'm
- 18:40Speaker 1: just going to say something here because I'm worried, really
- 18:42Speaker 1: worried after this big defense meeting in Washington overnight between
- 18:46Speaker 1: our Defense Minister Richard Miles, Foreign Minister pennywong An, America's
- 18:49Speaker 1: Secretary of Saint Marca Rivio, and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth,
- 18:53Speaker 1: because they left me again thinking how defenseless we are.
- 18:57Speaker 1: Why isn't the albanies of government acting like, yes, we'll
- 19:00Speaker 1: break out with China in the next decade, like the
- 19:03Speaker 1: government's top intelligence officials said only last week. Why is
- 19:07Speaker 1: it so silent? Why isn't it scrambling? Just a couple
- 19:11Speaker 1: of days ago, China did something so dangerous to Japan
- 19:14Speaker 1: that the last one minister felt force on the weekend
- 19:17Speaker 1: to speak out. Up to then the Abanza governor said
- 19:19Speaker 1: nothing when China threatened to cut the dirty neck, it
- 19:23Speaker 1: said of Japan's new prime minister for suggesting that Japan
- 19:27Speaker 1: would defend Taiwan from a Chinese invasion, leading the premise's
- 19:32Speaker 1: confident Shino Yamagami, a former Japanese ambassady, to riding this
- 19:36Speaker 1: aus TrAAin last week, Why wasn't Australia's standing with Japan?
- 19:41Speaker 1: And says then, of course, China's sent out its newest
- 19:43Speaker 1: aircraft carry three destroyers to conduct exercises of Japan's coast
- 19:47Speaker 1: last week, evolving Chinese warplanes, forcing Japan's air force to scramble.
- 19:52Speaker 1: During that Chinese fighters twice locked their fire control radar
- 19:56Speaker 1: and Japanese planes, which is usually a moving interpret as
- 19:59Speaker 1: a preparation of fire. Very hostile act, which then finally
- 20:04Speaker 1: forced Richard Mars, our Offensive Minister, it was in Japan
- 20:07Speaker 1: on his way to Washington, to break the government's silence
- 20:10Speaker 1: about China's bullying of Japan at the events last night.
- 20:15Speaker 5: Our concerning and Australia has also experienced concerning events in
- 20:22Speaker 5: interactions with the PLA, and we will continue to stand
- 20:27Speaker 5: with Japan in working with Japan to assert the rules
- 20:31Speaker 5: based order in this region, and we will do it resolutely.
- 20:35Speaker 1: We stand resolutely with Japan. We didn't, we didn't. I'm
- 20:40Speaker 1: not surprised when two weeks ago China sent out its
- 20:42Speaker 1: number three man to privately tell our Prime minister to
- 20:45Speaker 1: his face as shut up about Taiwan and leave it
- 20:49Speaker 1: to China. So good to Mars was only saying something,
- 20:51Speaker 1: but then he joined this Washington meeting yesterday went back
- 20:54Speaker 1: to telling us nothing. Will you consider We've got an
- 20:57Speaker 1: army that's short of missiles and owns even ammunition and men.
- 21:01Speaker 1: We have a navy that didn't even have a frigate
- 21:04Speaker 1: that could follow three Chinese naval ships LUNs February that
- 21:07Speaker 1: circled Australia firing weapons. Are governments starving them as money
- 21:12Speaker 1: while it puts all its eg into buying three nuclear
- 21:14Speaker 1: subs from the US, and the US has since said, well,
- 21:17Speaker 1: we're not sure we can afford to sell them, you know,
- 21:21Speaker 1: orcst agreement or not. And at these defense talks yesterday,
- 21:24Speaker 1: the Americans are back to saying, yes they want the
- 21:27Speaker 1: submarine deal to work. But you know, like work for America.
- 21:32Speaker 6: We're strengthening Uchust So that works for America, for Australia
- 21:35Speaker 6: and for the UK.
- 21:37Speaker 1: So what did that mean the subs are coming on
- 21:39Speaker 1: time as agreed or not? I mean, Miles refused twelve
- 21:43Speaker 1: times to say, is there a reason why you're reluctant
- 21:46Speaker 1: to do in any detail for the Australian public.
- 21:49Speaker 5: Firstly, the review is their review, so I'm seeking to
- 21:53Speaker 5: respect that.
- 21:54Speaker 1: Does the Australian government agree with those recommendations.
- 21:57Speaker 5: Look again, we are working through We're working with the
- 22:01Speaker 5: United States and the United Kingdom about how we can
- 22:04Speaker 5: make ORCUS better and that's that's.
- 22:06Speaker 1: All I'm going to say. Males comment when he was asked, well,
- 22:09Speaker 1: what about you know America demanding did a demand again
- 22:13Speaker 1: that we spend fifty percent more in our defense? Oh
- 22:16Speaker 1: couldn't comment. Does it sound to you like the defensements
- 22:19Speaker 1: of a country desperately preparing, preparing for a possible war,
- 22:24Speaker 1: a war that's openly threatened now by huge and aggressive
- 22:27Speaker 1: dictatorship to our north. I don't get it, you know,
- 22:34Speaker 1: at least I said, oh, look, you know, we've just
- 22:36Speaker 1: a negotia to build more stuff. In three I'd have
- 22:40Speaker 1: left Basis to get more troops in the US working
- 22:43Speaker 1: on hypersonic miss us. But really this is not enough.
- 22:47Speaker 1: And if this is what we get from the results
- 22:49Speaker 1: of a high profile defense meeting with American centerpiece of
- 22:54Speaker 1: our strategic policy, we are in strife. After the one
- 23:00Speaker 1: immigrant community in the US robs Americans are billions of
- 23:03Speaker 1: dollars and really sets off Donald Trump. I'm going to
- 23:10Speaker 1: go the wrong way. We keep taking in garbage into
- 23:12Speaker 1: our country. In the US, federal officials have uncovered an
- 23:20Speaker 1: extraordinary fraud involving Somali immigrants that it seems state officials
- 23:25Speaker 1: were too scared to call out. Dozens of Somalis in
- 23:29Speaker 1: Minnesota have been arrested accused of stealing governaid meant to
- 23:32Speaker 1: feed children during the COVID pandemic. Many have been convicted,
- 23:37Speaker 1: and the main prosecutor says, we're talking potentially billions of dollars,
- 23:41Speaker 1: but the President, Donald Trump reacted with the language about
- 23:44Speaker 1: Somalis in America that have caused more outrage. I don't
- 23:48Speaker 1: want them in our country. Their country is no good
- 23:50Speaker 1: for a reason. Their country stakes, and we don't want
- 23:54Speaker 1: them in our country. Are going to go the wrong
- 23:55Speaker 1: way if we keep taking in garbage into our country.
- 24:00Speaker 1: Just this covid ay that was stolen on the head
- 24:02Speaker 1: of the US Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Doctor
- 24:06Speaker 1: memdment Oz, the health burier, says more frauds have since
- 24:10Speaker 1: been discovered again, often involving Somali's and like Donald Trump,
- 24:14Speaker 1: he blames Minnesota Governor Tim Walls, the Democrats' former nominee
- 24:18Speaker 1: for Vice president, for covering it up.
- 24:21Speaker 7: Governor Walls and the states other Democrats rely on Somali
- 24:25Speaker 7: votes to get elected, so they decided to look the
- 24:28Speaker 7: other way because they were afraid of quote unquote political backlash.
- 24:32Speaker 7: Don't take my word for it, That's what a Somali
- 24:35Speaker 7: American fraud investigator told New York Times. One program designed
- 24:40Speaker 7: to provide housing stabilization assistance to patients ballooned to one
- 24:44Speaker 7: hundred and four million dollars when four years ago it
- 24:48Speaker 7: was projected to cost only two point six million. Some
- 24:51Speaker 7: of these taxpayer funds may have even ended up in
- 24:53Speaker 7: the hands of a Somalian terrorist group.
- 24:56Speaker 1: Scary stuffly me is John Henderrecher's a lawyer, is the
- 25:00Speaker 1: founder of the wonderful power Line blog and also president
- 25:05Speaker 1: of the Center of the American Experiment. John, Great to
- 25:09Speaker 1: see you again. This scandal, it's gone bang in the
- 25:14Speaker 1: national media in America. How big is it?
- 25:19Speaker 8: You know?
- 25:19Speaker 9: It's really interesting, Andrew, because my organization Center of the
- 25:23Speaker 9: American Experiment, as well as my website power Line, have
- 25:26Speaker 9: been writing about this story since January of twenty twenty two,
- 25:30Speaker 9: it'll be four years next month. And then for some
- 25:33Speaker 9: reason it hit the national news. It went from being
- 25:36Speaker 9: a local crime story to being a national news story.
- 25:39Speaker 9: President Trump tweeted about it, people like Elon Musk and
- 25:43Speaker 9: many others started talking about it, and all of a sudden,
- 25:46Speaker 9: it is all over the news nationally and now even internationally.
- 25:50Speaker 1: Now. Obviously, one of the big angles that prison Trump
- 25:56Speaker 1: has seased on and others as well, is how heavily
- 26:00Speaker 1: involved some of the Somali community in Minnesota have been
- 26:05Speaker 1: in this Most of the people arrested and charged and
- 26:09Speaker 1: convicted have been the Somalis. Why why is it centered
- 26:15Speaker 1: on them?
- 26:17Speaker 9: Well, you're right, Andrew, I mean the feeding our Future
- 26:20Speaker 9: scandal which kind of triggered all of this, probably a
- 26:22Speaker 9: five hundred million dollars scandal. Around eighty people have been charged,
- 26:27Speaker 9: most of them have already pled guilty or been convicted
- 26:30Speaker 9: by a jury. Ninety percent of those defendants are Somalis.
- 26:33Speaker 9: And that's typical. There's a whole range of frauds covering
- 26:37Speaker 9: multiple areas of state government in Minnesota, but the common
- 26:41Speaker 9: denominator in every case is you are basically talking about Somalis.
- 26:46Speaker 9: And that is an important aspect of the story, There's
- 26:48Speaker 9: no doubt about it.
- 26:51Speaker 1: Is the reason for that? I mean, you know, it's
- 26:55Speaker 1: mind boggling this level of involvement of a relatively new
- 27:01Speaker 1: immigrant community in that state. Is it that, I don't know,
- 27:06Speaker 1: they come from a low trust society and from Africa
- 27:11Speaker 1: where and they feel, you know, it's every man for
- 27:15Speaker 1: himself if there's free money grab it? Is it the
- 27:18Speaker 1: fact that the state government, the state governor didn't seem
- 27:23Speaker 1: to be that keen to make much of it, given
- 27:28Speaker 1: the how ted A little voting block the Somali community
- 27:33Speaker 1: was or is.
- 27:35Speaker 9: I think both of those things are true, Andrew. I
- 27:37Speaker 9: think these people come from a country that really doesn't
- 27:40Speaker 9: even function. They don't really have a functioning government. Corruption
- 27:44Speaker 9: is near a universal and I think when some of
- 27:47Speaker 9: these people realize that if you send an invoice to
- 27:50Speaker 9: the state government here in Minnesota, they'll just pant, you know,
- 27:54Speaker 9: no questions asked. It's unbelievable. And I can imagine some
- 27:58Speaker 9: of these people thinking, wow, this is fantastic, and they
- 28:01Speaker 9: made off with many, many, many millions of dollars. And
- 28:05Speaker 9: I think the Legislative auditor in Minnesota did an investigation,
- 28:10Speaker 9: wrote a very good report. It laid out the facts.
- 28:13Speaker 9: It also addressed the question why did it happen? And
- 28:16Speaker 9: she concluded that a big part of the explanation is
- 28:19Speaker 9: the culture in these Minnesota state agencies. There was no
- 28:23Speaker 9: sense that we're guardians of the taxpayer's dollars. You know,
- 28:27Speaker 9: we're supposed to make sure that this money is being
- 28:30Speaker 9: spent for good, legitimate purposes. Their attitude seem to be
- 28:34Speaker 9: I'm here to write checks. Anybody who wants to check,
- 28:37Speaker 9: I'll write. I'm a check because giving people money is
- 28:39Speaker 9: just fundamentally a good thing.
- 28:41Speaker 1: That seemed to be the attitude.
- 28:43Speaker 9: And so it's kind of a perfect storm of a
- 28:45Speaker 9: very incompetent state government with that kind of liberal orientation
- 28:49Speaker 9: and a group of people who just couldn't believe their
- 28:51Speaker 9: good fortune when they realized how easy it is to
- 28:54Speaker 9: steal money here.
- 28:57Speaker 1: But cital a fact that seen in the cover ups
- 29:01Speaker 1: for so many years as scandless cover ups in Britain
- 29:05Speaker 1: of the immigrant to ripe gangs, of the fear of
- 29:09Speaker 1: seeming racist by calling it out, I mean, that's certainly
- 29:13Speaker 1: the allegation that Donald Trump is making against Governor Tim Wolves.
- 29:19Speaker 9: I think there's truth to that. You know, my organization
- 29:21Speaker 9: obtained and released a fifty four minute tape where some
- 29:24Speaker 9: of these fraudsters went to see the attorney general of
- 29:27Speaker 9: our state, who should have been prosecuted these cases but
- 29:31Speaker 9: has done nothing, and they were complaining to him that
- 29:34Speaker 9: people in the state agency were starting to make noises
- 29:37Speaker 9: about more documentation, maybe we're going to stop paying you whatever,
- 29:41Speaker 9: And they said they're racists in these state agencies. They're
- 29:45Speaker 9: going after us because we're Africans. And our attorney general
- 29:48Speaker 9: agreed and he said, yeah, we have a problem. I'll
- 29:50Speaker 9: see what I can do for you. This is stupid,
- 29:53Speaker 9: piddly stuff, and so on. And then a week or
- 29:56Speaker 9: two later they gave him campaign contributions. And so, you know,
- 30:00Speaker 9: the Somali community in Minnesota is an important voting block
- 30:05Speaker 9: for the Democratic Party here, and so some of the
- 30:09Speaker 9: money that was stolen by these fraudsters came back to
- 30:12Speaker 9: the Democratic Party in the form of campaign contributions. And
- 30:16Speaker 9: even more importantly, I think it bought a lot of loyalty.
- 30:19Speaker 9: It bought a lot of votes among Somali voters because
- 30:23Speaker 9: all this money is being showered on those people. So
- 30:27Speaker 9: I think that is a part of the story.
- 30:31Speaker 1: Extraordinary stuff, and it's got quite a way to run
- 30:34Speaker 1: as it is. Can I just ask you, John? The
- 30:40Speaker 1: Trump administration has just put out a national security strategy.
- 30:43Speaker 1: You discussed it briefly last night on the show. It
- 30:47Speaker 1: accuses Europe of civilizational erasia, wiping out its own civilization.
- 30:53Speaker 1: What's the argument there.
- 30:55Speaker 9: Well, I think mostly what the Trump administration is talking
- 30:59Speaker 9: about is the image greation policies that have just radically
- 31:02Speaker 9: changed the demographics of many European countries, whether it's the UK, France, Germany,
- 31:08Speaker 9: the Netherlands and others. They have imported millions of Islamic
- 31:15Speaker 9: immigrants who have not assimilated to their countries, who have
- 31:18Speaker 9: formed almost separate enclaves. In some cases where there's very
- 31:22Speaker 9: little law enforcement going on, they'll riot, they'll burn vehicles,
- 31:27Speaker 9: and the Western Europeans seem to have no idea how
- 31:30Speaker 9: to handle this, no idea what to do about it.
- 31:33Speaker 9: And we're seeing a radical remaking of those societies in
- 31:38Speaker 9: a way that is secular, that is multicultural. And so
- 31:42Speaker 9: one example that that's going on right now. They used
- 31:45Speaker 9: to have and still do have Christmas markets all across
- 31:49Speaker 9: Europe and this is never an issue before, never controversial,
- 31:52Speaker 9: never a focus of violence. But in recent years there
- 31:56Speaker 9: have been a number of terrorist attacks by Muslims on
- 31:59Speaker 9: the these Christmas markets, and so now they're putting up barriers, ballards,
- 32:04Speaker 9: they got intensive police protection and so forth. And it's
- 32:08Speaker 9: kind of ironic because in some cities they've canceled these
- 32:12Speaker 9: Christmas markets because providing security.
- 32:15Speaker 1: For them is too expensive.
- 32:17Speaker 9: Well, at the same time, they have spent tens of
- 32:20Speaker 9: billions of dollars importing these Islamic immigrants and supporting them
- 32:25Speaker 9: on welfare and that's the reason why they have a
- 32:29Speaker 9: security problem with the Christmas markets. And so I think
- 32:33Speaker 9: that's the kind of thing that President Trump is talking about.
- 32:37Speaker 9: I think he would like to see more European countries
- 32:39Speaker 9: do what Hungary has done, do what Poland has done,
- 32:42Speaker 9: and really maintain their traditional demographics and their traditional cultures.
- 32:48Speaker 1: And there's the free speech issue as well. John Hendre,
- 32:52Speaker 1: thank you so much, indeed for your time.
- 32:55Speaker 9: Great to be with you, Andrew.
- 32:58Speaker 1: After the break, the men of politicians saying sorry for
- 33:01Speaker 1: bringing Western civilization in this country at a time of
- 33:05Speaker 1: mass immigration, and how Japan does things very differently, maybe
- 33:10Speaker 1: we should learn something by the way the Reserve Bank
- 33:16Speaker 1: today said no, it's not going to be cutting rates,
- 33:19Speaker 1: and with inflation rising, the next move in interest rates
- 33:23Speaker 1: is more likely to go up.
- 33:27Speaker 2: I would say at this moment that given what's happening
- 33:30Speaker 2: with underlying momentum in the economy.
- 33:33Speaker 6: That it does look like additional cuts are not needed.
- 33:38Speaker 1: That's what you get with the big spending government in charge.
- 33:41Speaker 1: But back to the apology I mentioned at the top
- 33:43Speaker 1: of the show, Sorry, the Victoria's premier gave for deeds
- 33:47Speaker 1: are ligedly done to people as identifying as Aborigines by
- 33:52Speaker 1: people of every other race, including the thirty percent of
- 33:55Speaker 1: us who weren't even born here.
- 33:58Speaker 2: This Parliament expresses our formal and sincere apology to first
- 34:04Speaker 2: peoples of Victoria for the harm inflicted upon them through
- 34:09Speaker 2: the actions and inactions of the state. We can begin
- 34:13Speaker 2: to say what should have been said a long time ago,
- 34:20Speaker 2: to ensure that the wrongs of the past are never repeated.
- 34:26Speaker 2: We say sorry.
- 34:29Speaker 1: Anyone there say apology accepted. I never hear that. John
- 34:33Speaker 1: me is the panel Meyerschlif, the research fellow of the
- 34:35Speaker 1: Institute of Public Affairs and make Newman commentator, corporate advisor
- 34:39Speaker 1: and former New South Wales Senior Trade advisor to Japan
- 34:42Speaker 1: and Korea. Mia I said earlier the Premiere said she
- 34:45Speaker 1: was apologizing for the stolen generations, among other things, even
- 34:48Speaker 1: though Labor appointed Stolen Generations task Force found there was
- 34:52Speaker 1: no such formal policy ever in Victoria. So what will
- 34:56Speaker 1: this apology actually achieve?
- 35:00Speaker 10: Well, I don't think it'll achieve much Andrew other than
- 35:02Speaker 10: breed more division and the Victorian community, which is something
- 35:06Speaker 10: this government seems determined to pursue at every single point.
- 35:09Speaker 10: I mean, Victorians could not be more clear. They do
- 35:13Speaker 10: not want to be divided on the basis of race
- 35:16Speaker 10: and listen, pursuing better outcomes for Indigenous Australians is a
- 35:20Speaker 10: very noble cause and I mean that very, very genuinely.
- 35:23Speaker 10: But acts of virtue signaling and acts of gestures like
- 35:26Speaker 10: these will do nothing to achieve those tangible outcomes, to
- 35:30Speaker 10: actually close that gap. Yet despite this, just sin to
- 35:33Speaker 10: Alam seems very happy to get up at any point
- 35:36Speaker 10: to make these grand gestures to appeal to her activist mates,
- 35:40Speaker 10: even if that comes at the cost of Victorians. And
- 35:43Speaker 10: at the end of the day, that is where the
- 35:45Speaker 10: cost is lying. It is with Victorians, and it is
- 35:47Speaker 10: dividing us now more than ever. Now because of this,
- 35:49Speaker 10: we have a two tiered legal system. We have a
- 35:52Speaker 10: system where some people, because of their race, have more
- 35:55Speaker 10: votes than others, and some people have better access to
- 35:58Speaker 10: Parliament on the basis of their race. This is a
- 36:00Speaker 10: very very dark time for Victoria and it seems to
- 36:03Speaker 10: just be getting darker.
- 36:06Speaker 1: I don't forget a racially divided medical service at Lisa
- 36:09Speaker 1: Victoria Mike governments. Dividing us by race and trashing the
- 36:14Speaker 1: history seems to be madness, really dangerous, especially now out
- 36:18Speaker 1: of time with mass immigration. You know the challenges we
- 36:21Speaker 1: have and integrating people. And we've got the federal opposition
- 36:25Speaker 1: now working on a policy not just a cut immigration,
- 36:27Speaker 1: but to bring in people more likely to fit in.
- 36:31Speaker 1: But ABC presenters are really rehearsing their lines about that.
- 36:34Speaker 1: Have listened to this this morning.
- 36:37Speaker 11: Being anti migration is Isn't that the definition of prejudice?
- 36:39Speaker 4: If we've got complex problems around infrastructure and roads, blaming
- 36:44Speaker 4: the latest arrivals, isn't that prejudice?
- 36:48Speaker 1: Honestly, Mike, I mean just amaze you that we don't
- 36:51Speaker 1: seem to be able to have a serious debate about
- 36:54Speaker 1: immigration without the ABC and even some left wing liberals
- 36:57Speaker 1: screaming racerst.
- 37:00Speaker 12: Thanks Andrew Well. To be honest, you know, Japan is
- 37:03Speaker 12: a country where equality is not seen as a form
- 37:06Speaker 12: of discrimination. I come here quarterly from Japan for business,
- 37:11Speaker 12: and every time I come here, I always think that
- 37:14Speaker 12: what's the next event in the oppression Olympics in Japan.
- 37:19Speaker 12: Japan is proud to be Japan. Japanese people are proud
- 37:22Speaker 12: to be Japanese. We have a new Prime minister and
- 37:26Speaker 12: our media was more interested that she wasn't playing up
- 37:28Speaker 12: to the fact that she was the first female prime
- 37:30Speaker 12: minister other than the fact she was actually extremely popular
- 37:34Speaker 12: in her own right. She has a net popularity rating
- 37:37Speaker 12: in the high sixties early seventies, which is pretty much
- 37:40Speaker 12: unheard of amongst Japanese prime ministers because she is adopting
- 37:43Speaker 12: a japan First policy. They have a declining population, but
- 37:47Speaker 12: they believe that the quality of the immigration they get
- 37:51Speaker 12: in is the most important thing, not the quantity. So
- 37:54Speaker 12: we are seeing a huge sea shift. We're even having
- 37:57Speaker 12: a ministerial Council to help the Japanese work out how
- 38:01Speaker 12: foreigners can better integrate with Japanese society. It is not
- 38:06Speaker 12: that the Japanese want to fit in with new migrants.
- 38:10Speaker 12: They want the new migrants to fit in with japan
- 38:12Speaker 12: and I think that that is a very successful model.
- 38:15Speaker 12: They're ninety seven percent Japanese. You know, travel is at
- 38:19Speaker 12: record levels. We're going to have forty million visitors to
- 38:22Speaker 12: Japan this year, and presumably people are going because they
- 38:25Speaker 12: love the culture and all of these aspects, and you know,
- 38:28Speaker 12: the very kind and friendly Japanese people, but the entire
- 38:31Speaker 12: nation really wants to make sure that we never ever
- 38:35Speaker 12: sacrifice the core of who we are, isn't it strange?
- 38:40Speaker 1: Mea like Japan's got just three percent of Japanese born overseas,
- 38:44Speaker 1: We've got thirty percent of Austrais born overseas. But they
- 38:48Speaker 1: have franker talks about, you know, immigrants needing to fit
- 38:52Speaker 1: in and wanted to limit immigration than we do.
- 38:56Speaker 12: Well, there's a town in Saitama Prefecture. Sorry, that's to
- 39:02Speaker 12: me me, what do you make of that?
- 39:06Speaker 10: Well, I think it's an interesting point and drew. And
- 39:08Speaker 10: of course in Japan they're having these talks and that's
- 39:11Speaker 10: been the limiting point here in Australia is it up
- 39:14Speaker 10: until now? And even now with bodies like the ABC
- 39:16Speaker 10: who are screaming racist? When anyone wants to actually start
- 39:19Speaker 10: discussing the surge of migration in Australia and the impacts
- 39:22Speaker 10: that's having on the people who are here, you get
- 39:25Speaker 10: called a racist. Reality is as mainstream Australians are absolutely
- 39:29Speaker 10: sick of that. We did some polling at the IPA
- 39:32Speaker 10: and we found that seventy percent of Australians thought that
- 39:35Speaker 10: migration needed to be paused until social infrastructure and economic
- 39:40Speaker 10: infrastructure could catch up. That's the reality. So the ABC
- 39:44Speaker 10: can sit there and collersal racists, but that is how
- 39:46Speaker 10: mainstream Australians feel. At the end of the day. It
- 39:49Speaker 10: is an absolute testament that there are so many people
- 39:51Speaker 10: who want to come into this country. But unless we
- 39:53Speaker 10: can get migration under control, unless it is planned for,
- 39:56Speaker 10: and unless it is targeted toward areas of economic need,
- 40:00Speaker 10: then the quality of life for everyone living in Australia,
- 40:03Speaker 10: whether you were born here or whether you're a new arrival,
- 40:06Speaker 10: that will decline.
- 40:09Speaker 1: Mike, you've spent more than half your working life, I
- 40:11Speaker 1: believe in Japan. Do you feel you see them self
- 40:16Speaker 1: flagelating about their past, and they've got a past that's
- 40:20Speaker 1: harder to get over with World War two and all
- 40:22Speaker 1: that than we do. Do you see them flatulating themselves
- 40:26Speaker 1: as much as we do and calling each other racist
- 40:29Speaker 1: or even daring to suggest that foreigners should fit in,
- 40:33Speaker 1: not in.
- 40:33Speaker 12: The slightest And it was interesting you mentioned earlier in
- 40:37Speaker 12: the show former Ambassador Yamagami making points that when a
- 40:44Speaker 12: Chinese diplomat threatens to behead the Prime minister, that it
- 40:47Speaker 12: took two three four days for us to finally assure
- 40:50Speaker 12: a response, but all that did is galvanize the Japanese
- 40:53Speaker 12: people to rally even harder behind Prime Minister Takaichi because
- 40:57Speaker 12: they believe they have so proud of their nation, their history.
- 41:01Speaker 12: Of course they have some troubles, but at the same time,
- 41:05Speaker 12: if you go to Japan, they are one of the
- 41:07Speaker 12: loveliest people you can possibly imagine. Words like amatenashi which
- 41:11Speaker 12: means kindness, or more yari which means to help out
- 41:13Speaker 12: your your fellow neighbors, and so on. That's basically the
- 41:18Speaker 12: core of the culture and that's why I think so
- 41:21Speaker 12: many people enjoy going there. We're actually having a over
- 41:24Speaker 12: tourism backlash in Japan because more and more tourists are
- 41:28Speaker 12: deciding to do ridiculous TikTok videos on board subway trains,
- 41:31Speaker 12: singing and carrying on like buffoons. We even had a
- 41:34Speaker 12: situation where the Australian members he had to issue letter
- 41:38Speaker 12: to visitors to make sure that during the olborn season,
- 41:41Speaker 12: where people go to clean the graves of their ancestors
- 41:45Speaker 12: and put ceremonial beer or wine or chips or whatever
- 41:47Speaker 12: it is on top of the gravestones, we had Aussie
- 41:50Speaker 12: tourists stealing the beers off the top of these sorts
- 41:53Speaker 12: of things and this is where the culture. But this
- 41:57Speaker 12: is exactly where the Japanese are now with tourism. Gave
- 42:00Speaker 12: me what our tourists to fit in when they come
- 42:02Speaker 12: a visit. We don't have a problem with tourists coming
- 42:04Speaker 12: in stuff.
- 42:06Speaker 1: But you know, this is a life lesson for Australians,
- 42:10Speaker 1: particularly the ones that were arrested in Bali with that
- 42:14Speaker 1: that porn star and then god, how embarrassing we are
- 42:17Speaker 1: in Bali. Mireshally, Mike Newman, thank you so much to
- 42:21Speaker 1: you both. After the break the brilliant speech in Britain
- 42:25Speaker 1: that I think should have been aimed at Julia Gillard.
- 42:29Speaker 8: Let me explain to the Chancellor woman to women, people
- 42:35Speaker 8: out there aren't complaining because she's female. They're complaining because
- 42:39Speaker 8: she is utterly incompetent.
- 42:45Speaker 1: We talked tonight about Japan dealing with this immigration problem,
- 42:48Speaker 1: Donald Trump complaining about immigrant crime, about our immigration problem,
- 42:52Speaker 1: and the ABC already yelling racist. Well in Britain, immigration
- 42:57Speaker 1: is also a massive political issue that from the handouts,
- 43:02Speaker 1: the rape gags, the illegal immigrants flooding in by boat.
- 43:05Speaker 1: But Britain's BBC is even more shameless than our ABC
- 43:09Speaker 1: can you believe it in trying to rig the debate.
- 43:13Speaker 1: This question time panel show had a special segment last
- 43:17Speaker 1: week on immigration and got a couple of people who
- 43:19Speaker 1: come to Britain illegally by boat to come put their
- 43:22Speaker 1: opinions and attack the chairman of Nigel Faraja's anti immigration
- 43:26Speaker 1: reform party.
- 43:28Speaker 11: You came over from Afghanistan on a small boat in
- 43:31Speaker 11: the last four or five years. I think, yes, I
- 43:33Speaker 11: come from Afghanistan. It's a man in the watch chair
- 43:36Speaker 11: now I know you also, you came over on a
- 43:38Speaker 11: small boat. I might write about that. Yeah, what's your
- 43:41Speaker 11: response to what you're hearing?
- 43:43Speaker 8: Damage?
- 43:44Speaker 1: That was our security cooperation? You think?
- 43:47Speaker 11: I'll highly answer that question. My parents came here legally.
- 43:51Speaker 1: Joined me is writer, broadcaster and commentator Esther Krakh. Esther
- 43:55Speaker 1: great to see you. Look the BBC stacked that show
- 43:59Speaker 1: with two illegal people paid for their fairs to come.
- 44:03Speaker 1: Did the BBC also pay anty immigration protests as it
- 44:06Speaker 1: can put their point of view?
- 44:09Speaker 6: Well, it would seem so. I mean, this is the
- 44:11Speaker 6: stuff that you just can't make up. It's like Britain
- 44:13Speaker 6: taking its immigration policy advice from a Mexican street vendor
- 44:18Speaker 6: only made worse by the fact that these two individuals
- 44:21Speaker 6: entered the country by breaking our laws. Now they've since
- 44:24Speaker 6: been granted asylum, which I don't know if is a
- 44:26Speaker 6: good or bad thing. You can just look at the
- 44:29Speaker 6: stats on data from individuals from Afghanistan and Iran in
- 44:34Speaker 6: the UK and see where they line up with the
- 44:36Speaker 6: general population. But I'll leave that for your viewers to
- 44:38Speaker 6: do that independent research on their own. But it's just
- 44:41Speaker 6: a complete affront to what the BBC should be about.
- 44:44Speaker 6: They don't even get a good balance when it comes
- 44:46Speaker 6: to what British people actually think. Their interns and their
- 44:49Speaker 6: journalists are just a bunch of blue head left wing
- 44:52Speaker 6: individuals from university, which is why you keep seeing scandal
- 44:55Speaker 6: upter scandal on the BBC because they have no true diversity,
- 44:58Speaker 6: which is a diversity of thought. And then to add
- 45:00Speaker 6: insult to injury, they are hosting a debate about immigration,
- 45:04Speaker 6: which is a seriously contentious issue in Britain was one
- 45:06Speaker 6: of the leading drivers for Brexit, and they think the
- 45:09Speaker 6: British public want to hear anything from people who broke
- 45:13Speaker 6: broke into the country illegally and have since been granted asylum,
- 45:16Speaker 6: individuals that are inevitably going to probably benefit from Britain's
- 45:20Speaker 6: welfare state, not even just now, but certainly down the line,
- 45:23Speaker 6: and certainly when they were in the process of getting
- 45:25Speaker 6: their asylum case heard, because the British government offers all
- 45:28Speaker 6: sorts of benefits even to asylum seekers, like health care,
- 45:32Speaker 6: dental care, education, housing, things that even British citizens individuals
- 45:37Speaker 6: that have paid into the system are struggling to access.
- 45:40Speaker 6: So it's no wonder that the BBC has fallen in
- 45:43Speaker 6: such disrepute, not just nationally but globally, because these are
- 45:47Speaker 6: the kinds of ridiculous stunts that they pull and they
- 45:49Speaker 6: expect to be taken seriously. On what grounds did any
- 45:51Speaker 6: producer think it was a good idea to have two individuals,
- 45:54Speaker 6: one of whom had failed had to filled asylum cases
- 45:58Speaker 6: or claimed in five different countries in Europe. So he
- 46:00Speaker 6: admitted himself before he decided to come to Britain, so
- 46:03Speaker 6: Britain was a country of last result, and because of
- 46:05Speaker 6: course our British state wanted to prove him right by
- 46:07Speaker 6: showing how incompetent it was, it granted him asylum even
- 46:10Speaker 6: though he'd been rejected by five other countries, which would
- 46:12Speaker 6: probably indicate that you probably shouldn't be there in the
- 46:14Speaker 6: first place. So yeah, it's no wonder that you know
- 46:17Speaker 6: people have such a huge problem with the BBC because
- 46:20Speaker 6: they're just ridiculous and completely out of touch.
- 46:23Speaker 1: Well, I just realized we probably have matched you on
- 46:26Speaker 1: that because I do recall now a guy had been
- 46:29Speaker 1: charged with terrorism offenses, a Muslim chap who was invited
- 46:33Speaker 1: onto a show to berate the our opposition on our
- 46:36Speaker 1: government then at the time for being too tough on terrorists.
- 46:40Speaker 1: Here's something to encourage our opposition leader, Susan Lee, by
- 46:44Speaker 1: the way, she was considered absolutely done and dusted, as
- 46:48Speaker 1: was as a leader, as was your Cami Bednock, your
- 46:52Speaker 1: Conservative Party leader, I say collectively you. But last week
- 46:58Speaker 1: gave a speech and apply to the budget handed down
- 47:01Speaker 1: by Chancellor Rachel Reeves, another woman who'd been Reeves have
- 47:06Speaker 1: been complaining, oh about this criticism, complaining like our former
- 47:10Speaker 1: Prime Minister Julia Gillard, that her critics were misogynists. Bandannock.
- 47:15Speaker 1: Let her have it. Have a look.
- 47:17Speaker 8: All we've had is wallowing in self pity and whining
- 47:21Speaker 8: about misogyny and man's plainer. Soir Madam defti speaker, let
- 47:25Speaker 8: me explain to the Chancellor.
- 47:27Speaker 1: Woman to woman out.
- 47:30Speaker 8: People out there aren't complaining because she's female, They're complaining
- 47:35Speaker 8: because she is utterly incompetent. Real equality, Real equality means
- 47:45Speaker 8: being held to the same standard as everyone else. It
- 47:49Speaker 8: means being judged on results.
- 47:52Speaker 1: Make of that message and why is it that only
- 47:55Speaker 1: a woman would have dared give it to another woman.
- 48:00Speaker 6: Because we have an establishment media establishment in the UK,
- 48:02Speaker 6: particularly left wing media establishment that would have lost its
- 48:05Speaker 6: mind had the idea of true equality, which means being
- 48:08Speaker 6: held to the same standard as everyone else. And I
- 48:10Speaker 6: think Kemmy makes it a fantastic point. One of the
- 48:12Speaker 6: most celebrated Prime ministers in British history is Margaret Thatcher,
- 48:16Speaker 6: who happened to be a woman, and she wasn't celebrated
- 48:19Speaker 6: because she was a woman. She was celebrated because she
- 48:20Speaker 6: fundamentally changed Britain in many ways for the better, although
- 48:24Speaker 6: she did have her flaws like everyone else. And that's
- 48:26Speaker 6: what people need to bear in mind. The fact that
- 48:28Speaker 6: Rachel Reeves is kind of leaning on man's plaining and
- 48:31Speaker 6: misogyny to cover up her utter failures when people are
- 48:35Speaker 6: being completely just done by by the government. High bills,
- 48:39Speaker 6: ridiculous taxes, can't afford a home, can't afford energy is
- 48:43Speaker 6: utterly insulting. It's one of the things that people remember
- 48:45Speaker 6: about this government, not just the fact that they're complete failures,
- 48:47Speaker 6: but the fact that they can't take their failures on
- 48:49Speaker 6: the chin like everyone else is supposed to.
- 48:53Speaker 1: Mister Krek who thank you so much for your time.
- 48:57Speaker 1: Coming up next sharing Mason for me. Good night,
