- 0:02Speaker 1: Welcome to the Late Debate. Good evening and welcome to
- 0:08Speaker 1: the show. I'm Frehley.
- 0:09Speaker 2: She joined by Jamie Rodgers and Joe Hildebrand, filling in
- 0:12Speaker 2: for Calebond and James McPherson. Here's what's coming up on
- 0:15Speaker 2: the Late Debate. Millions have signed a petition urging Florida
- 0:19Speaker 2: to show leniency towards illegal migrant harranger Singh, who allegedly
- 0:24Speaker 2: killed three people. Could you forgive someone who murdered your
- 0:28Speaker 2: spouse while the husband of Aaron Patterson's victim thinks so? Plus,
- 0:33Speaker 2: the United Health Services Union could derail Labour's attempt to
- 0:37Speaker 2: reform the NDIS. Plus this weekend, thousands of people took
- 0:42Speaker 2: to the streets around Australia protesting for Palestine. Someone carried
- 0:46Speaker 2: around a noose and a sign calling for Albanesi Wong
- 0:50Speaker 2: and Natan Yahoo to be executed for war crimes. There
- 0:53Speaker 2: were countless Palestinian flags, Islamic flags and even a Hermas flag,
- 1:00Speaker 2: but it's only when someone unfiled an Australian flag that
- 1:04Speaker 2: they were arrested.
- 1:07Speaker 3: It was peaceful, apart from one group of men with
- 1:10Speaker 3: Australian flags throwing insults at March's police moving in swiftly
- 1:15Speaker 3: and arresting a ringleader.
- 1:22Speaker 2: Getting arrested for raising an Australian flag is the kind
- 1:26Speaker 2: of thing you'd expect to see if we were under
- 1:28Speaker 2: foreign occupation by I don't know, China or an Islamic caliphate.
- 1:32Speaker 2: To see all these foreign flags on our streets, yet
- 1:35Speaker 2: it's the Australian flag that gets someone arrested really makes
- 1:40Speaker 2: you wonder who's truly in control of our streets. David
- 1:44Speaker 2: chris A fully, the Queensland Premier, condemned the presence of
- 1:47Speaker 2: her mass flags as horrendous.
- 1:49Speaker 1: But Jamie, what.
- 1:51Speaker 2: Will it actually take for the government to crack down
- 1:55Speaker 2: on these protests?
- 1:56Speaker 1: You're right, Freya.
- 1:57Speaker 3: I mean we're at a point now where I think,
- 1:59Speaker 3: rid of your crisis in Australia.
- 2:01Speaker 1: What do we stand for?
- 2:03Speaker 3: And when you see things like the Hamas flag being
- 2:05Speaker 3: waived at a protest, that's not a peaceful protest. And
- 2:08Speaker 3: whilst Anthony Alberanezi can keep saying that these are peaceful protests,
- 2:12Speaker 3: where is he going to stand up and actually say no,
- 2:14Speaker 3: enough's enough. We are making our Jewish community feel unsafe
- 2:18Speaker 3: to live here.
- 2:19Speaker 1: I mean, where are.
- 2:20Speaker 3: The banners out there saying release the hostages or hey Hamas,
- 2:24Speaker 3: let's disarm and try and actually make the terrorist organization
- 2:29Speaker 3: be held accountable for what's going on. And the fact
- 2:32Speaker 3: that it's costing eleven million dollars in total now for
- 2:35Speaker 3: all of these protests that we've seen, think.
- 2:37Speaker 1: About where that money could have been spent.
- 2:40Speaker 3: But instead every single Sunday we are seeing hatred fill
- 2:45Speaker 3: out onto our streets. There is nothing peaceful about any
- 2:48Speaker 3: of this. And I also was thinking on the weekend
- 2:52Speaker 3: what about the businesses that are around these protests and
- 2:55Speaker 3: how much it's impacting them as well. You heard the
- 2:57Speaker 3: story about people getting abused Starbucks. I mean, enough is enough,
- 3:03Speaker 3: and we need Anthony Abernezi and the leadership to stand
- 3:06Speaker 3: up and say we've had it.
- 3:08Speaker 4: Yeah, I think definitely anyone who's chanting death to the
- 3:11Speaker 4: Ideaf or going around with pictures of the PM and
- 3:14Speaker 4: a noose around his I mean that's obviously despicable. That
- 3:17Speaker 4: is clear incitement to violence. I do not understand why
- 3:20Speaker 4: it is so difficult to arrest and charge people who
- 3:22Speaker 4: do this. Anyone likewise who is carrying a Hamas flag
- 3:26Speaker 4: is openly supporting rape and murder and abduction, because that,
- 3:31Speaker 4: of course is what took place on October seven, So
- 3:35Speaker 4: again that should be a no brainer. I'm not comfortable
- 3:38Speaker 4: with the idea of the government deciding who can or
- 3:40Speaker 4: can't protest. Even though these protests, and I've written about
- 3:43Speaker 4: them extensively, they are nauseating. They are run by absolute
- 3:48Speaker 4: numpty trotty fools. They if anything, do more harm to
- 3:52Speaker 4: the cause that they purport to serve. And they're not
- 3:54Speaker 4: exactly They're not actually about helping Powis. I know about
- 3:58Speaker 4: hurting Israel. And we know that because even after the
- 4:00Speaker 4: PM said the Australian government would recognize Palistine, which is
- 4:03Speaker 4: an enormous breakthrough for the pro Palestinian movement over decades.
- 4:09Speaker 4: I mean, not these numpties who are going out and protesting.
- 4:11Speaker 4: The protest you said, oh no, no, that's not what
- 4:13Speaker 4: we want. We want sanctions against Israel because you know,
- 4:17Speaker 4: Australia selves them what it's, you know, screws that might
- 4:20Speaker 4: one day be put into some military equipment or something
- 4:23Speaker 4: like just the bonkers bonkers bombers. I hear them say, oh,
- 4:26Speaker 4: we're selling them parts for f thirty five. I don't
- 4:28Speaker 4: think we have any parts to spare. But the difficult
- 4:32Speaker 4: thing is how do you You don't want the government.
- 4:34Speaker 4: You don't want to be in a position where the
- 4:37Speaker 4: government decides who can and can't protest, how often over
- 4:41Speaker 4: what causes. And indeed, and I know the cost is
- 4:44Speaker 4: just nauseating.
- 4:45Speaker 1: It makes me say that when do the protesters have
- 4:47Speaker 1: to start coughing up?
- 4:49Speaker 4: But this is the other problem. But then if you say,
- 4:51Speaker 4: all right, the protesters have to practice, then Clive Palmer
- 4:53Speaker 4: can hold a protest every Sunday.
- 4:55Speaker 3: But we live in a country where you can have
- 4:57Speaker 3: free speech and you are allowed to protest. But I
- 5:00Speaker 3: almost feel that they're doing their cause a disservice because
- 5:03Speaker 3: they're annoying everyone else. So for themselves, why not do
- 5:06Speaker 3: it once a month and actually have a bigger impact
- 5:09Speaker 3: if that's what you're trying to achieve. Like, what is
- 5:11Speaker 3: it that they want because on the weekend it was
- 5:14Speaker 3: all very anti Elbow. Previously it's I mean, it's always
- 5:17Speaker 3: anti Israel, but they're changing.
- 5:21Speaker 4: Albo is doing the bidding of these guys. These guys
- 5:23Speaker 4: are constantly I mean again, they're threatening, they're calling them the
- 5:26Speaker 4: genocidal war all.
- 5:28Speaker 2: So interestingly, the new South Wales Liberals have twice introduced
- 5:32Speaker 2: a bill into New South Wales Parliament that would put
- 5:34Speaker 2: a cap three protests a year on protest groups. And
- 5:39Speaker 2: beyond that point you would have to pay for the
- 5:41Speaker 2: police and all the resources, the millions of dollars that
- 5:45Speaker 2: go into making these things safe, shutting down the city.
- 5:48Speaker 2: I think they should also give compensation to businesses that
- 5:51Speaker 2: are forced to close. But interestingly, and this is bad
- 5:54Speaker 2: news for your friend Chris Mins Joe, you us, but
- 5:59Speaker 2: he has shut it down twice now, and so why
- 6:03Speaker 2: clicks for Syrius protested.
- 6:06Speaker 4: Horrendously annoying as these people are, the principles at stake
- 6:11Speaker 4: are simply too great. So I imagine, for example, if
- 6:13Speaker 4: you had such a law and that there was a
- 6:16Speaker 4: series of protests protesting against a horrendously corrupted criminal government
- 6:23Speaker 4: and they said we're going to protest every day until
- 6:26Speaker 4: the government resigns. On day three, the government that they're
- 6:29Speaker 4: protesting against can just say, right, that's it, the way
- 6:31Speaker 4: you go. You can't go home. And again, if if
- 6:33Speaker 4: you are saying then you have to pay for the costs,
- 6:36Speaker 4: you immediately give all the power to people who have
- 6:40Speaker 4: woke billionaires. We'll get in it. You know, Jeff Bezos
- 6:43Speaker 4: and George Soros, they will be the up before able
- 6:45Speaker 4: you already do. I know that's what But the point
- 6:48Speaker 4: is that that shouldn't be a requirement. So that happens
- 6:52Speaker 4: enough in our democracy, but it shouldn't be the requirement.
- 6:55Speaker 2: I understand the principle of it, but I also think
- 6:58Speaker 2: that at this point, these protests gone so far beyond
- 7:01Speaker 2: just a legitimate expression of outrage. Repeated terrast flags, repeated
- 7:06Speaker 2: anti Semitic slurs, repeated calls for executions of political leaders.
- 7:11Speaker 1: At what point? And I think we've reached that point.
- 7:12Speaker 2: Where you just go, this is not about protesting, This
- 7:15Speaker 2: is not even about helping Palestinians. This is just about
- 7:18Speaker 2: letting hate take over our streets.
- 7:20Speaker 1: And we can't stand for that here. No, absolutely not.
- 7:23Speaker 3: And I think when you're seeing harmas flags and isis flags.
- 7:26Speaker 1: Arrest h charge exactly an inciting hate.
- 7:32Speaker 3: Yes, we're seeing repeats of this in the UK where
- 7:34Speaker 3: people that are holding up the UK flag are the
- 7:36Speaker 3: ones getting arrested, like what we saw here with the
- 7:38Speaker 3: Australian flag. So we need to have some serious implications
- 7:41Speaker 3: for these people that are putting out these.
- 7:43Speaker 4: UK and again UK police. Maybe they're going too crazy
- 7:45Speaker 4: in some directions, but again they arrested and prosecuted the rapper,
- 7:50Speaker 4: the Gaelic Irish nationalist rapper. I did not know that
- 7:53Speaker 4: was a musical genre. Incidentally, until recently. Who pulled out
- 7:57Speaker 4: the pulled out the hummus flag? I think was on
- 8:01Speaker 4: at Glastonbury or sorry was band at Glastonbury had done
- 8:04Speaker 4: so at a previous festival and they and they are
- 8:07Speaker 4: being charged. I don't understand why we can't do that.
- 8:10Speaker 4: If the dumb protesters want to waste their time, you
- 8:13Speaker 4: know they should have to have a permit. But again,
- 8:16Speaker 4: when you've got judges, they say it's find a protest
- 8:18Speaker 4: on the harbor Bridge.
- 8:19Speaker 1: Maybe, well, luck do we have? All right?
- 8:22Speaker 3: Well, let's change tach now and looking at IVF and
- 8:26Speaker 3: the journey of single women who want to become mothers.
- 8:30Speaker 3: One in ten who undergo IVF the cycle are single moms.
- 8:35Speaker 3: And I think, guys, if we have a look at
- 8:38Speaker 3: someone here who Stephanie Dale. So she didn't want to
- 8:41Speaker 3: just wait for anyone to come along and have a baby.
- 8:45Speaker 3: If we take a listen to her reasons behind why
- 8:48Speaker 3: she wants to go, it alone.
- 8:50Speaker 5: It was at that time where I had started to
- 8:52Speaker 5: be a little bit more aware of my fertility and
- 8:56Speaker 5: grieve the fact that you're not going to get that,
- 8:59Speaker 5: you know, partner own family. That Once I was past that, yeah,
- 9:03Speaker 5: I decided to change paths and go down the path
- 9:07Speaker 5: on my own.
- 9:11Speaker 3: So I think that this is really great that we
- 9:14Speaker 3: have this technology for women who when you get to
- 9:17Speaker 3: an age, I mean, unlike men, women have a ticking
- 9:21Speaker 3: clock when it comes to having children. You know, if
- 9:24Speaker 3: you're over thirty five, you're classified as geriatric. And so
- 9:26Speaker 3: if you are a female who desperately wants to have
- 9:29Speaker 3: a baby, they are lucky to be got to go
- 9:32Speaker 3: down this IVF path and have that there for them.
- 9:35Speaker 3: And I say as well, when women are focusing on
- 9:37Speaker 3: their careers these days and they are tending to have
- 9:40Speaker 3: families later in life, you don't necessarily want to just
- 9:43Speaker 3: partner with anyone because you're stuck with that person for
- 9:46Speaker 3: the rest of your life even if it doesn't work out.
- 9:49Speaker 1: So at least they can go out alone and they
- 9:50Speaker 1: have that option.
- 9:52Speaker 2: I don't know, I feel really conflicted about this one.
- 9:54Speaker 2: I mean, firstly, there are so many ethical implications with
- 9:58Speaker 2: IVF What happens to all the free and embryos that
- 10:01Speaker 2: aren't used. There are millions of frozen embryos sitting on ice.
- 10:05Speaker 2: We covered a story on the Late Debate a couple
- 10:07Speaker 2: of years, a couple of weeks ago about an embryo
- 10:10Speaker 2: that was frozen in the nineties and used to create
- 10:13Speaker 2: a healthy baby today.
- 10:15Speaker 1: And that's an example where you.
- 10:17Speaker 2: Have been able to save the embryo and it's resulted
- 10:19Speaker 2: in a baby, which is beautiful for a family. But
- 10:22Speaker 2: there are millions of others that are just sitting there.
- 10:24Speaker 2: So what are we doing with all these embryos? That's
- 10:26Speaker 2: my first question. And also, even if technology can delay
- 10:31Speaker 2: the result of social breakdown, does that necessarily make it good.
- 10:36Speaker 2: Why are women getting to their late thirties in such
- 10:40Speaker 2: numbers one in ten IVF babies, which is that two
- 10:43Speaker 2: thousand a year in Australia. Why are so many women
- 10:46Speaker 2: getting to their late thirties without having found a partner?
- 10:49Speaker 3: And for me, why, I've got friends, I've gone through
- 10:55Speaker 3: this journey and I had one that was in a
- 10:57Speaker 3: very long term relationship. They got married and then a
- 11:00Speaker 3: few years later some things happened with the gentleman we
- 11:03Speaker 3: weren't going.
- 11:04Speaker 1: To details dirty dog.
- 11:06Speaker 3: But she was then in her late thirties and now
- 11:08Speaker 3: suddenly single, and so what do you do?
- 11:11Speaker 1: You want to have a child.
- 11:13Speaker 3: And for a female, luckily she had frozen some of
- 11:15Speaker 3: her eggs, so it's an option. But for women, they
- 11:18Speaker 3: don't have that luxury to just sit there like, oh,
- 11:20Speaker 3: I'll just wait another five years to have another person
- 11:22Speaker 3: come along and find a guy that I might not like.
- 11:25Speaker 4: And this is like men later, you know, spoiler, where
- 11:31Speaker 4: are aresholes? Like's more selfish children ourselves. We often don't
- 11:34Speaker 4: want to have babies. I did. But my sister in
- 11:36Speaker 4: law went through the exact same thing. So she would
- 11:39Speaker 4: have loved her have a baby with someone, but couldn't
- 11:41Speaker 4: find the right guy for whatever reason, and decided that
- 11:44Speaker 4: she was just going to do it on her own.
- 11:47Speaker 4: And she had not. Actually it's not on her because
- 11:49Speaker 4: she had a huge amount of what he's a really,
- 11:50Speaker 4: really hard thing to do. And she is an incredibly
- 11:54Speaker 4: lucky position where she's got you know, a mom who's
- 11:57Speaker 4: she's the math, who helps take care of her when
- 11:59Speaker 4: she works and stuff, and obviously she's got may as
- 12:02Speaker 4: a kind of the honorary honorary sort of step dad
- 12:05Speaker 4: who's the greatest dad in the world, and we say
- 12:09Speaker 4: the baby's always our house and we're all sort of
- 12:11Speaker 4: one big tried now. But it is, it's a massive undertake.
- 12:14Speaker 1: It's a massive undertake.
- 12:15Speaker 3: And it's also not easy to do to go and
- 12:17Speaker 3: get like a sperm donor is off in a twelvemonth wait,
- 12:20Speaker 3: So it's not something you can just decide tomorrow to
- 12:22Speaker 3: go and do. So you do need to think about
- 12:24Speaker 3: it and go through quite an extensive process.
- 12:25Speaker 2: And I think there is though I must say this,
- 12:27Speaker 2: I think there is a trend of people putting off childbearings.
- 12:31Speaker 1: That's what we've seen.
- 12:32Speaker 2: People are delaying when they start a family, and then naturally,
- 12:36Speaker 2: with biology, the older you get, the harder it is
- 12:39Speaker 2: to become pregnant. So the average age for first time
- 12:42Speaker 2: mothers now is early thirties. Yeah, now, fifty years ago
- 12:46Speaker 2: it was your early twenties. That's when you're biologically most
- 12:49Speaker 2: able to actually have children. So part of me also
- 12:52Speaker 2: thinks IVF IS is good for people who unfortunately find
- 12:56Speaker 2: themselves in this position where they can't naturally conceive. But
- 13:00Speaker 2: are we just putting a band aid on a broader
- 13:03Speaker 2: societal problem, which is that women feel like they can't
- 13:07Speaker 2: actually have children when they are biologically able to and
- 13:12Speaker 2: even want to. The average age women want to have
- 13:15Speaker 2: their first child is about twenty seven, yet most don't
- 13:18Speaker 2: until they're thirties.
- 13:19Speaker 4: I think there's a lot going on. I think one is,
- 13:21Speaker 4: you know, what they often call the great live sort
- 13:23Speaker 4: of second wave of feminism, that you can have it all,
- 13:25Speaker 4: the baby, the career and everything. And women often talk
- 13:27Speaker 4: about this, they all right, got my career better down,
- 13:31Speaker 4: now it's time to have a baby, and suddenly you know, ticking,
- 13:34Speaker 4: you know, you're ticking time bomb has gone off. And
- 13:37Speaker 4: there's probably another. I think there's another thing with the
- 13:40Speaker 4: cost of living crisis now, where people think I need
- 13:42Speaker 4: to be able to afford a house to buy my
- 13:45Speaker 4: first time, settle down somewhere and then I can have that.
- 13:47Speaker 4: And by the time you've done that, you're probably getting
- 13:49Speaker 4: a bit long in the tooth. And we're seeing even
- 13:52Speaker 4: just you know how, like so the number of families,
- 13:54Speaker 4: there's actually all this data on this, The number of
- 13:56Speaker 4: families in inner city's suburbs is going down, down, down
- 14:00Speaker 4: and down, and it gets and basically the closer you
- 14:05Speaker 4: get into the CBD, the fewer families there are, and
- 14:07Speaker 4: the further you go out, the more young families there are.
- 14:10Speaker 4: And it's because these are the only places that people
- 14:13Speaker 4: can afford to have kids. And so again that means
- 14:15Speaker 4: you know, taking time to be able to afford to
- 14:18Speaker 4: create the environment that you're having the kid into.
- 14:20Speaker 1: So yeah, but part of me also thinks Jamie like,
- 14:22Speaker 1: it is also.
- 14:23Speaker 4: Just the devil's work, and it's all the downlad side.
- 14:25Speaker 1: It's an honesty thing.
- 14:26Speaker 2: I don't think young women are told the truth, which
- 14:29Speaker 2: is that you actually don't have that flow. You basically
- 14:33Speaker 2: have your twenties to find a partner and then you
- 14:35Speaker 2: better get to having babies pretty quickly before time runs out.
- 14:38Speaker 1: And I think if we.
- 14:39Speaker 2: Were just a little bit more honest with people do
- 14:42Speaker 2: we could avoid some of these pains.
- 14:43Speaker 4: That's absolutely right. So in other words, it's all the
- 14:46Speaker 4: fault of the youth, and not just that because the
- 14:49Speaker 4: youth are also lazy. Yes, the new reporters come out
- 14:52Speaker 4: today that it's found that one of the biggest handbrakes
- 14:55Speaker 4: on productivity is young people who were refusing to move
- 15:00Speaker 4: around for jobs. So mobility, we all thought that you know,
- 15:04Speaker 4: members are going to be you know, the gig economy,
- 15:06Speaker 4: and young people weren't going to stay in the same
- 15:07Speaker 4: job and they were going to hop from job to job,
- 15:11Speaker 4: a job in place to place to place to place. Well,
- 15:12Speaker 4: they might be hopping from job to job, but they're
- 15:14Speaker 4: not hopping from place to place. And this is what
- 15:17Speaker 4: the Productivity Commission says is one of the big things.
- 15:20Speaker 4: So mobility has generally increased as we've gone through the decades,
- 15:24Speaker 4: and I thought, oh, that's great, We're becoming more efficient.
- 15:26Speaker 4: You know, people aren't bettered into jobs, and it means
- 15:29Speaker 4: it is more choice from employers and employees to find
- 15:32Speaker 4: the job to which they're best suited. But now suddenly
- 15:35Speaker 4: that's not happening. And the mobility, yes, it remains lower
- 15:39Speaker 4: for older workers as you'd expect, five percent for those
- 15:41Speaker 4: over forty five because speaking from experience, they all have arthritis.
- 15:45Speaker 4: But it's ten percent for twenty five to forty four
- 15:49Speaker 4: year old but that is lower than what it was.
- 15:53Speaker 4: So between the mid ninety nineties, overall mobility rates have
- 15:56Speaker 4: dropped ten percent a year for fifteen to twenty four
- 16:00Speaker 4: year olds, so it's it's now so in nine Hineo
- 16:04Speaker 4: five mobility rates for twenty two percent fifteen to twenty
- 16:07Speaker 4: four year olds. They're now almost half that at thirteen percent.
- 16:12Speaker 4: So those dirty gen z I don't even know what
- 16:15Speaker 4: we're up to anymore. The dirty gen Z's right, and
- 16:19Speaker 4: the you know, then whatever last generation's gen z's are
- 16:23Speaker 4: now that might be me. I'm letting us all down
- 16:26Speaker 4: because they're not moving around or are they not able
- 16:30Speaker 4: to move around because they all still living with their
- 16:32Speaker 4: parents because they can't afford to move out.
- 16:35Speaker 1: Well, I feel like that's definitely one factor. People aren't
- 16:38Speaker 1: as able to move for jobs because they're concerned about
- 16:41Speaker 1: cost of living. Also, I think a lot of young
- 16:44Speaker 1: people are.
- 16:45Speaker 2: Too anxious to actually apply for a job, and the
- 16:48Speaker 2: fear of rejection is really high. And then another factor
- 16:51Speaker 2: probably is that people are staying in university for longer.
- 16:55Speaker 2: So now people are doing your four year undergrad, your
- 16:58Speaker 2: two year masters. They're not even proper in the workforce
- 17:01Speaker 2: until they're mid to late twenties, so people probably aren't
- 17:04Speaker 2: as focused on career progression in those early years.
- 17:08Speaker 1: But long time, it.
- 17:09Speaker 2: Does spell trouble for our economy because typically you rely
- 17:12Speaker 2: on people moving jobs, so they bring the skills they've learned,
- 17:16Speaker 2: they bring new processes, they add to.
- 17:18Speaker 1: The new environment.
- 17:18Speaker 2: If that's not happening, and I mean, either we have
- 17:21Speaker 2: a generation of lazy people or just highly anxious young people,
- 17:25Speaker 2: which I think is more.
- 17:26Speaker 1: What's happening here, it's going to be bad. Well.
- 17:29Speaker 3: Is it also something to do with the fact with
- 17:31Speaker 3: social media? I mean, Joe, we were talking about this
- 17:33Speaker 3: on the show yesterday for the Sunday Showdown about how
- 17:35Speaker 3: Sydney's nightlife is dying because people would rather be on
- 17:38Speaker 3: their phones and they don't have the confidence to actually
- 17:41Speaker 3: go out and talk to people in real life instead
- 17:43Speaker 3: of just being on your device. So is that what's
- 17:45Speaker 3: happening here is you're too scared to be able to
- 17:47Speaker 3: go to your boss and have those tough conversations because
- 17:49Speaker 3: it's awkward if you want to be able to get
- 17:51Speaker 3: a pay rise or a promotion. And so I think
- 17:54Speaker 3: that's probably contributing to this anxious, depressed and stress is
- 17:58Speaker 3: what's quoted within that article that was just show them previously.
- 18:01Speaker 3: But I also am wondering is there something to do
- 18:04Speaker 3: with the fact that now this is obviously decades in
- 18:06Speaker 3: the making, but in the past two years, how we've
- 18:09Speaker 3: seen this influx of that non market sector roles. So
- 18:13Speaker 3: eighty percent of new jobs that were created is in
- 18:15Speaker 3: that non market sector. So are you going to be
- 18:18Speaker 3: fighting in the private sector for a role and have
- 18:21Speaker 3: the pay rises or would you rather be working in
- 18:24Speaker 3: NDAs and looking after cases. So I think that's probably
- 18:27Speaker 3: something to do with this.
- 18:28Speaker 1: As well of where people jobs well potentially.
- 18:32Speaker 3: So it's a very interesting but quite concerning and it's
- 18:36Speaker 3: a shame it wasn't come up at the roundtable last.
- 18:38Speaker 4: Week, I think one of the really interesting things. And
- 18:40Speaker 4: this is something I know. I've definitely heard it from
- 18:44Speaker 4: employers anecdotally. I'm not sure if there's any actual data
- 18:46Speaker 4: on it, but young people are constantly asking for feedback,
- 18:50Speaker 4: so that anxiety that you mentioned. Young workers are constantly
- 18:52Speaker 4: asking for feedback as to how they're doing. And I've
- 18:55Speaker 4: heard it first hand myself. And you know, there's the
- 18:57Speaker 4: lovely kids who just want to know they're doing a
- 18:58Speaker 4: good job. So they're far from lazy, they're really conscientious,
- 19:01Speaker 4: but they need to be told that they're doing a
- 19:04Speaker 4: good job, it seems, and a lot of employers like
- 19:07Speaker 4: just you know, just keep going and you know, you'll
- 19:09Speaker 4: find out when you're doing something wrong. Then you'll get feedback.
- 19:12Speaker 4: But the other thing is in the social media thing
- 19:15Speaker 4: that you raise, So there is actual research out there.
- 19:18Speaker 4: I spoke to a psychologist who literally wrote the book
- 19:20Speaker 4: on this. Social media stops you hampers your ability to
- 19:25Speaker 4: interact with real people because it sets up this really
- 19:28Speaker 4: basic kind of binary sort of reward system where you
- 19:33Speaker 4: post something, people like it, you get to like, they
- 19:35Speaker 4: don't like it, you don't get a like, And so
- 19:37Speaker 4: that sort of sort of conditions people to put really
- 19:40Speaker 4: basic and that's where you get sort of origins of virtue. Signally,
- 19:43Speaker 4: you know, how terrible is it what's happening in Pakistan
- 19:45Speaker 4: or today I took some time out just for me,
- 19:48Speaker 4: or you know, every morning I think for myself, you
- 19:50Speaker 4: know whatever those horrible positivity crap you see on Instagram is.
- 19:57Speaker 4: But that again, that that is going to make it
- 20:00Speaker 4: difficult in a workplace environment. It probably makes having face
- 20:03Speaker 4: to face job interviews confrontational. The other thing is maybe
- 20:06Speaker 4: there's just not enough unemployment, because if there are enough
- 20:09Speaker 4: jobs around, then people are going to Obviously, I mean
- 20:12Speaker 4: I never leave the house unless someone puts a gun
- 20:14Speaker 4: to my head or to come on this show.
- 20:16Speaker 2: Of course, no, I think all those factors are definitely
- 20:19Speaker 2: playing a role, and ultimately I think it is because
- 20:21Speaker 2: jen Z is extremely.
- 20:22Speaker 1: Anxious and change is hard.
- 20:24Speaker 2: But let's move on now to the mushroom murderer, Aaron Patterson.
- 20:28Speaker 2: She had her sentencing hearing today and she's probably going
- 20:31Speaker 2: to get life in prison, but really the debate is
- 20:33Speaker 2: coming down to whether she gets a parole period, so
- 20:38Speaker 2: after a certain amount of years.
- 20:40Speaker 1: Could she potentially walk free again.
- 20:43Speaker 2: But one of the most interesting parts of this hearing
- 20:46Speaker 2: was the victim impact statement from pastor Ian Wilkinson. He's
- 20:51Speaker 2: the husband to victim Heather, and he said this, in
- 20:55Speaker 2: regards to the many harms done to me, I make
- 20:58Speaker 2: an offer of forgiveness to Erin. I say harms, I
- 21:02Speaker 2: say harms done to me. I have no power or
- 21:05Speaker 2: responsibility to forgive harms done to others. In regards to
- 21:09Speaker 2: the murder of heathern, Gail and Don I am compelled
- 21:12Speaker 2: to seek justice. However, I encourage Erin to receive my
- 21:15Speaker 2: offer of forgiveness for those harms done to.
- 21:18Speaker 1: Me, with full confession and repentance.
- 21:21Speaker 2: I bear her no ill will my prayer for her
- 21:24Speaker 2: is that she will use her time in jail wisely
- 21:27Speaker 2: to become a better person. Now I am no longer
- 21:30Speaker 2: Aaron Patterson's victim. She has become the victim.
- 21:33Speaker 1: Of my kindness.
- 21:36Speaker 2: Wow, I mean moving powerful words from Pastor Ian Wilkinson there.
- 21:43Speaker 2: I mean clearly you can see his Christian faith shining
- 21:46Speaker 2: through in that, because the doctrine of forgiveness is at
- 21:49Speaker 2: the core of Christianity and he is embodying that in
- 21:53Speaker 2: that statement. But to be able to say to the
- 21:56Speaker 2: woman who murdered your wife, I forget giving you. You
- 22:00Speaker 2: are now a victim of my forgiveness. I'm not a
- 22:03Speaker 2: victim of yours. That's so moving and I think really
- 22:07Speaker 2: liberating for the pasta.
- 22:09Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 22:10Speaker 3: I mean, look, I think he's definitely a better person
- 22:12Speaker 3: than I am, because I could never look the killer
- 22:15Speaker 3: in the eyes and say that I forgive you. But
- 22:17Speaker 3: then you know, you always do. Hear that saying as
- 22:19Speaker 3: well that by you holding on to that hate, it
- 22:22Speaker 3: actually eats you inside it And she will move on
- 22:24Speaker 3: with her life, well, move on within the realms of
- 22:27Speaker 3: the four walls in inside of the cell.
- 22:29Speaker 1: But it also reminds me of.
- 22:30Speaker 3: That Abdullah family, Danny Amdullah, who forgave the drug driver
- 22:35Speaker 3: who killed three of his children, and the cousin and
- 22:37Speaker 3: so these people are just so strong in their ability
- 22:40Speaker 3: to move past really serious and sad incidents that's happened
- 22:43Speaker 3: to them.
- 22:44Speaker 1: And one of the.
- 22:44Speaker 2: Interesting things we've seen with the Aaron Pattison case is,
- 22:47Speaker 2: and I think you've talked about this, Joe, the double
- 22:49Speaker 2: standard we have when it's a female offender versus male offender,
- 22:53Speaker 2: and the natural sympathy. A lot of people feel her
- 22:57Speaker 2: she's a triple murderer, like you shouldn't fel sympathy was
- 23:00Speaker 2: a male Would anyone be saying that? And so I
- 23:03Speaker 2: want to read you. One of the judge in this
- 23:05Speaker 2: instance said, of course Aaron Patterson's case is horrendous, But
- 23:10Speaker 2: then he expressed concern about the conditions of Pattison's custody,
- 23:16Speaker 2: saying that she'd already spent up to twenty two hours
- 23:19Speaker 2: a day in a cell, and he said that's not
- 23:22Speaker 2: very humane. Ah, I think what's not very humane is
- 23:26Speaker 2: murdering people with beef Wellington's I wouldn't be so concerned
- 23:31Speaker 2: about the conditions of her jail And Australian jails are
- 23:35Speaker 2: better than the most around the world.
- 23:37Speaker 1: Anyway, I got a bird.
- 23:38Speaker 4: Life in prison anywhere you want to do it in Australia. Yeah,
- 23:41Speaker 4: it is a phenomena. I mean there's something I think.
- 23:45Speaker 4: She cuts such an incredibly pathetic figure, and I think
- 23:49Speaker 4: that just triggered something in people. And again there was
- 23:51Speaker 4: that ridiculous decision, thankfully reversed by the ABASA to not
- 23:55Speaker 4: show a picture of her in Anguish, even though you
- 23:58Speaker 4: can't imagine any other triple murderer, certainly not a male
- 24:01Speaker 4: triple murderer ever getting that kind of consideration. But I
- 24:05Speaker 4: think she projects such a kind of pathos and such
- 24:09Speaker 4: such a wretched kind of figure that you do, like,
- 24:13Speaker 4: like Ian Wilkinson, sort of think she just looks like
- 24:19Speaker 4: a broken human being, someone who has just failed at life.
- 24:23Speaker 4: But it's interesting, but said, He says that he forgives
- 24:27Speaker 4: her for the harms done to him, like making him very,
- 24:29Speaker 4: very sick. But he also says, I can't speak on
- 24:32Speaker 4: behalf of others, including his wife Heather, and it's just
- 24:36Speaker 4: it is a huge sort of thing to do. But
- 24:38Speaker 4: it's interesting, he says, we'll hang on. No, she's dead,
- 24:42Speaker 4: it's up to her to forgive her from wherever she
- 24:45Speaker 4: is now. I can't actually do that, And he spoke
- 24:47Speaker 4: very movingly about how he felt ever since, he just
- 24:50Speaker 4: felt half alive without his wife there. But I want
- 24:53Speaker 4: to ask you free as a because you're the daughter
- 24:55Speaker 4: of a clergyman, daughter of a minister, an Anglican minister,
- 24:59Speaker 4: so you're almost proper, but you know, not quite just
- 25:02Speaker 4: become high Anglican. But no, but you're sure that your
- 25:06Speaker 4: father would have these conversations with you about these great
- 25:10Speaker 4: moral quandaries. And what do you do? I mean, Jesus said,
- 25:14Speaker 4: turn the other cheek. Would you be able to do it?
- 25:17Speaker 6: Though?
- 25:17Speaker 4: In real life? Face with it?
- 25:18Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's one of those things you
- 25:19Speaker 2: don't know how you would react in real life.
- 25:22Speaker 1: But I would hope.
- 25:23Speaker 2: That in this sort of situation, God forbid it ever
- 25:27Speaker 2: did happen, I would act the way Passy and Wilkinson had.
- 25:30Speaker 2: And no, my dad went through horrific things as a
- 25:33Speaker 2: child and has it extremely dysfunctional family background, and the
- 25:37Speaker 2: way he's been able to move on and break the
- 25:39Speaker 2: cycle of dysfunction is by forgiving. And even though it
- 25:44Speaker 2: doesn't remove the pain and the hurt, it does set
- 25:48Speaker 2: you free in a way because you can release the
- 25:51Speaker 2: resentment you feel.
- 25:52Speaker 1: And so I don't know, but who knows, Right, I.
- 25:55Speaker 4: Can't forgive my wife and not stacking to diswatch it properly,
- 25:58Speaker 4: so I'm probably a fair way off.
- 26:01Speaker 3: Well, let's take a look now at the alb and
- 26:04Speaker 3: Easy government. Going into the last election, they did have
- 26:06Speaker 3: a promise that they would have five percent deposits for
- 26:09Speaker 3: first home buyers. Well, fast forward to now and that's
- 26:13Speaker 3: going to be coming out in October. Let's take a
- 26:15Speaker 3: listen to what the Prime Minister has to say about
- 26:18Speaker 3: this new idea.
- 26:21Speaker 7: This will make a difference for tens of thousands of
- 26:24Speaker 7: additional homes. These measures, together with our Housing Australia Future Fund,
- 26:29Speaker 7: our Build to Rent Scheme, our Shared Equity Scheme, are
- 26:33Speaker 7: all about delivering increased supply, but also delivering increased home ownership,
- 26:39Speaker 7: increase affordable rentals and increased public housing and affordable housing
- 26:45Speaker 7: as well.
- 26:47Speaker 1: Okay, so look, I think.
- 26:49Speaker 3: This sounds great, but this is such a band aid
- 26:52Speaker 3: solution and I think it doesn't solve the issue of
- 26:55Speaker 3: the fact that we don't have enough supply in this country.
- 26:58Speaker 3: And ultimately this is now going to drive an influx
- 27:01Speaker 3: of people able to now go and buy a property,
- 27:04Speaker 3: which I think is they're going to make the prices
- 27:05Speaker 3: go up even.
- 27:06Speaker 4: Further, but getting so John Howard's first home bise Grant
- 27:10Speaker 4: did the same thing. The prices went up, but people
- 27:13Speaker 4: were still able to get in. So the prices going
- 27:15Speaker 4: up wasn't walking people out of the might have been
- 27:19Speaker 4: making housing more expensive, but it wasn't making it less
- 27:21Speaker 4: affordable because people had the upfront money they need. So
- 27:24Speaker 4: what a great policy.
- 27:25Speaker 1: Fantastic, let's go on and it's such a great policy.
- 27:27Speaker 2: It was actually a liberal policy that labor copied and expanded.
- 27:31Speaker 1: But again I think you're right, Jamie.
- 27:33Speaker 2: Unless you address the fundamentals of more supply and less
- 27:35Speaker 2: to mind from immigration, it won't really.
- 27:37Speaker 4: Do anything exactly and expanded by removing the means test
- 27:40Speaker 4: because they're so aspirational. So there you go. You're welcome,
- 27:43Speaker 4: Liberal party. Let's get on to another labor party. This
- 27:46Speaker 4: is the UK Labor Party and they are and yes,
- 27:49Speaker 4: this is a bit of a case of deja vu.
- 27:51Speaker 4: In a war with Elon musk over online regulation, now
- 27:56Speaker 4: Elon Musks X has lashed out a Home Office backed
- 28:01Speaker 4: scheme that is the UK's kind of big security ministry.
- 28:07Speaker 4: The executives at except Bristle of voluntary code of conduct
- 28:10Speaker 4: being developed by the Violence Prevention Network. We should get
- 28:14Speaker 4: one of those in Australia because we've got violence here,
- 28:17Speaker 4: so we just get a violence prevention network that could
- 28:20Speaker 4: make it all go away.
- 28:21Speaker 1: Why don't we think Karen is already und.
- 28:25Speaker 4: So this is a new scheme is about to be
- 28:26Speaker 4: endorsed by the Starma Labor government and basically what it
- 28:29Speaker 4: tries to do is identify warning signs or risk factors
- 28:36Speaker 4: online extremism and Elon Musk and Twitter. Twitter. I still
- 28:41Speaker 4: call it Twitter because I can't think everyone yeah that's
- 28:43Speaker 4: right saying no, no, no, this is going to curb free speech.
- 28:47Speaker 4: So should the government be able to identify and tackle little,
- 28:52Speaker 4: you know, German little sort of embryonic terrorists or is
- 28:56Speaker 4: that freedom of speech discuss Well?
- 28:58Speaker 2: I think the problem here is the capacity for the
- 29:02Speaker 2: government to manipulate these codes and these standards is just
- 29:06Speaker 2: so great. We've seen it here with our own Ear
- 29:08Speaker 2: Safety Commissioner ordering global takedown bands over pieces of content
- 29:13Speaker 2: and it just gets absurd.
- 29:15Speaker 1: And keep in mind the UK government.
- 29:17Speaker 2: Lists cultural nationalism, which they define as the belief that
- 29:21Speaker 2: Western culture is under threat from mass immigration. That is
- 29:25Speaker 2: classified as extremist ideology.
- 29:28Speaker 1: By the UK government.
- 29:29Speaker 2: So what's the chances that this is actually just used
- 29:33Speaker 2: to shut down dissenting voices and clamp down on the
- 29:37Speaker 2: right wing of the UK, which we know the government
- 29:40Speaker 2: is scared of because look at the protests that they're
- 29:42Speaker 2: seeing around the country.
- 29:44Speaker 3: Well, it's going down a very slippery slope because you
- 29:46Speaker 3: see in the UK I was having quick look at
- 29:48Speaker 3: some of the stats and thirty people a day get
- 29:51Speaker 3: arrested based on whether to sharing a tweet or a cartoon.
- 29:56Speaker 1: That the government doesn't necessarily agree with.
- 29:58Speaker 3: And one woman who was just about her life and
- 30:00Speaker 3: she shared an immigration tweet. Next thing there was a
- 30:03Speaker 3: knock on the door and she spent twenty four hours
- 30:05Speaker 3: in a jail cell. So I think when you're then
- 30:07Speaker 3: bringing in things like this, I can see what they're
- 30:10Speaker 3: trying to do in terms of making sure you can
- 30:13Speaker 3: alleviate any Islamic extremism amongst the youth. But we're just
- 30:19Speaker 3: crossing a very fine line when it comes to free
- 30:21Speaker 3: speech and keeping the government.
- 30:22Speaker 1: Out of our lives.
- 30:23Speaker 2: And Europe has some serious problems a US tourist. I
- 30:27Speaker 2: think he needs to be nominated for Citizen of the
- 30:30Speaker 2: Year or something. He was a good Smaritan and he
- 30:33Speaker 2: came to the aid of a woman who was being
- 30:35Speaker 2: allegedly assaulted in Germany by allegedly a Syrian migrant, and
- 30:41Speaker 2: he got stabbed.
- 30:43Speaker 1: This is him.
- 30:45Speaker 8: Three minutes that man assaulted that young woman yesterday will
- 30:49Speaker 8: be released from custody. He'll be released from custody because
- 30:52Speaker 8: he's not a citizen of Germany. If they could do
- 30:54Speaker 8: this to the people of Germany and then just released
- 31:01Speaker 8: twelve hours later, even least at this point, where's the law,
- 31:07Speaker 8: where's the structure.
- 31:10Speaker 2: It's absolutely outrageous, and things like that are happening across
- 31:13Speaker 2: Europe all the time.
- 31:15Speaker 1: But you might remember a couple of.
- 31:16Speaker 2: Weeks ago we talked to you about this story of
- 31:19Speaker 2: an illegal migrant named Hajjingissingh who moved to the US
- 31:24Speaker 2: from India illegally, got a license in California, a sanctuary stage,
- 31:31Speaker 2: and then did an illegal u turn on a road
- 31:33Speaker 2: in Florida that tragically killed three people.
- 31:37Speaker 1: Here it is from Fox News, all right.
- 31:39Speaker 6: An illegal migrant has now been charged after his truck
- 31:43Speaker 6: jackknife a mini van while making an illegal U turn,
- 31:46Speaker 6: killing the three people inside the van. The migrant, who
- 31:49Speaker 6: is believed to have crossed the border illegally in twenty eighteen,
- 31:53Speaker 6: was granted a commercial driver's license by the state of California.
- 31:57Speaker 6: He now faces vehicular homicide charge and deportation.
- 32:02Speaker 1: So get this.
- 32:04Speaker 2: A petition has been put up online calling for the
- 32:08Speaker 2: courts to show leniency to him, and it's received two
- 32:12Speaker 2: point five million signatures. Yeah, two point five million signatures
- 32:17Speaker 2: for what was a horrendous, stupid, unthinkable tragedy.
- 32:25Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 32:25Speaker 4: Look for all those activists who are opposed to Donald
- 32:29Speaker 4: Trump's deportation scheme, I don't think this is the poster
- 32:32Speaker 4: boy you want your cause. I'm pretty sure that you
- 32:35Speaker 4: can find someone who is a better contributor to peace
- 32:39Speaker 4: and justice and social cohesion in the US than a
- 32:42Speaker 4: bloke who to my And again, this was the sign
- 32:45Speaker 4: that they were showing that he apparently couldn't read because
- 32:49Speaker 4: he was spect English or whatever. That was one of
- 32:52Speaker 4: the narratives going around. But the sign was just a
- 32:56Speaker 4: arrow of a U turn with a big red line
- 32:58Speaker 4: through it.
- 32:59Speaker 2: It seemed pretty No, it was absurd to think that
- 33:03Speaker 2: two point five million people are calling for leniency this
- 33:06Speaker 2: guy that took the lives of three people senselessly. But
- 33:09Speaker 2: also in the US lefties are really melting down. But
- 33:13Speaker 2: now people are taking up arms, it seems against Ice agents.
- 33:17Speaker 1: Check this out.
- 33:19Speaker 9: Talking with the homeless people out here, they're getting ready tonight, man,
- 33:23Speaker 9: they got baseball bats, knives.
- 33:27Speaker 4: Some of them are armed.
- 33:29Speaker 8: Actually, So like, if Ice comes in here, man, the
- 33:32Speaker 8: one that I was talking with you said, if they
- 33:33Speaker 8: come and try to me, he's already he's already going
- 33:35Speaker 8: to shoot.
- 33:35Speaker 9: You don't care.
- 33:37Speaker 2: The homeless people or the people they're trying to deport
- 33:41Speaker 2: have knives and baseball bats. Apparently, when will people learn
- 33:47Speaker 2: that enforcing the law is actually what.
- 33:50Speaker 1: The government is here to do. Yeah.
- 33:52Speaker 3: I don't understand all of these protests over in the US,
- 33:56Speaker 3: especially when Donald Trump is trying to combat crime and
- 34:00Speaker 3: stop the homelessness and ultimately just make the place better
- 34:04Speaker 3: and people are out there protesting his crackdown on removing
- 34:07Speaker 3: illegal immigrants and trying to reduce crime.
- 34:10Speaker 1: I just don't understand what am I missing?
- 34:12Speaker 4: Joe, Well, this is the thing. So John Trump says, Oh,
- 34:15Speaker 4: I know all these illegal immigrants, they're causing crime, they're
- 34:20Speaker 4: you know, they're they're a drag on the economy. And
- 34:22Speaker 4: again the activist response to this is said, well, know,
- 34:25Speaker 4: all these homeless illegal immigrants are going to take their
- 34:29Speaker 4: illegal weapons and shoot anyone who tries to support them.
- 34:32Speaker 4: On the basis that they are not contributing to the
- 34:35Speaker 4: economy and that they are causing an increase in crime,
- 34:39Speaker 4: it makes no sense beyond are better spokesman in.
- 34:44Speaker 2: Washington, this same crowd of just useless, pathetic, diluted lefties,
- 34:50Speaker 2: we're also out protesting Trump's takeover.
- 34:55Speaker 10: Fine, and this the moment we'll determine how this federal
- 34:58Speaker 10: takeover will play out in cities found like do you.
- 35:02Speaker 2: Seem to be a playground form like gentrifiering and developers.
- 35:06Speaker 1: And they spend that the mayor popular.
- 35:12Speaker 2: Kind of a weak crowd, i would say, And the
- 35:16Speaker 2: same class of university activists and white kids who really
- 35:19Speaker 2: don't have any serious problems to be concerned about. So
- 35:22Speaker 2: they're out in the middle of the day protesting law
- 35:25Speaker 2: and order. But again, the Democrats need to realize that
- 35:29Speaker 2: opposing law enforcement is not a winning strategy. In fact,
- 35:33Speaker 2: this is one way to guarantee that they lose forever.
- 35:37Speaker 3: Well, I just love that Donald Trump is coming out
- 35:39Speaker 3: and saying he'll be sending national troops to other parts
- 35:43Speaker 3: of the US after it was seemed to be pretty
- 35:46Speaker 3: successful in Washington from when you see some of the
- 35:48Speaker 3: tweets that are going around and pictures of what's coming
- 35:50Speaker 3: out of Washington. But the mayor of Chicago is certainly
- 35:54Speaker 3: not happy about the idea of Donald Trump sending troops
- 35:57Speaker 3: to his area.
- 35:59Speaker 1: In fact, can have listened to what he has to say.
- 36:02Speaker 9: The city of Chicago does not need a military occupied state.
- 36:09Speaker 9: That is, that's not who we are. And commend the
- 36:12Speaker 9: work of Mayor Bass, my colleague, and you know all
- 36:15Speaker 9: the folks in Los Angeles who stood up and fought,
- 36:18Speaker 9: you know, against this, you know, authoritarianism.
- 36:22Speaker 3: So the mayor thinks that by sending the troops this
- 36:25Speaker 3: is going to inflame tensions.
- 36:28Speaker 4: Can we just Chicago mayors get so soft? You know,
- 36:31Speaker 4: they used to be the tough guys, what having the
- 36:34Speaker 4: likes of Mayor Daily, who in nineteen sixty eight at
- 36:38Speaker 4: the Democrat Convention sent the cops out to go and
- 36:41Speaker 4: crack some hippie skulls. And he was a Democrat. That's
- 36:44Speaker 4: what I want to say from my Chicago mayors. You
- 36:47Speaker 4: know someone who's not afraid to, you know, take a
- 36:49Speaker 4: sip of whiskey in the morning and to crack some
- 36:52Speaker 4: undergrad skulls in the afternoon.
- 36:54Speaker 1: Huh.
- 36:54Speaker 2: The Democrats are full of soy boys or oh mum,
- 36:57Speaker 2: Danny lost a bench press challenge the other day.
- 37:00Speaker 1: It's just full of pathetic men.
- 37:02Speaker 2: But coming up after the break, the Health Services Union
- 37:04Speaker 2: could derail Labour's NDIS reforms and one lefty throws a tantrum.
- 37:10Speaker 1: You won't want to miss. Welcome back to the show.
- 37:19Speaker 2: Let's get into the papers, so you get tomorrow's front
- 37:22Speaker 2: pages today and let's start with The Australian, where a
- 37:25Speaker 2: headline definitely caught our eye slash green tape to hit
- 37:29Speaker 2: twenty thirty five. Tiget industry is worned the Albanesi government.
- 37:33Speaker 2: It needs to fix environmental approvals if it wants to
- 37:37Speaker 2: adopt an ambitious twenty thirty five emissions reduction target. As
- 37:41Speaker 2: Labour aims to sideline the Greens and strike a deal
- 37:44Speaker 2: with the Coalition on reforming green tape rules by the
- 37:47Speaker 2: end of the year, Environment Minister Murray Watt on Tuesday,
- 37:52Speaker 2: will outline a plan to introduce a bill into Parliament
- 37:55Speaker 2: by the end of the year to reform the Environmental
- 37:58Speaker 2: Protection and Buy Diversity Conservation Act, broadly in line with
- 38:02Speaker 2: the recommendations from a twenty twenty report led by Graham
- 38:06Speaker 2: Samuel Jamie.
- 38:08Speaker 1: No question about the fact that we need to improve
- 38:12Speaker 1: environmental approvals.
- 38:13Speaker 2: Things are taking way too long, not just for green
- 38:15Speaker 2: energy projects but for mining projects as well.
- 38:18Speaker 1: But I hate to say.
- 38:20Speaker 2: It, I don't think any sped up approvals time is
- 38:23Speaker 2: going to help us reach this twenty thirty five target.
- 38:26Speaker 2: I think it's pretty much impossible.
- 38:28Speaker 3: Yeah, I have to agree with you there. And within
- 38:30Speaker 3: this article it does say that Chris Bowen is going
- 38:33Speaker 3: to be announcing a new target, but more so like
- 38:36Speaker 3: a range. So we're looking at maybe like a sixty
- 38:39Speaker 3: five to seventy five percent range.
- 38:40Speaker 1: Rather than a specific target.
- 38:42Speaker 4: Oh that's solved, then, fantastic. I actually remember when the
- 38:47Speaker 4: new South Wales government many many moons ago was able
- 38:51Speaker 4: to get more trains running on time by changing the
- 38:55Speaker 4: definition of on time running that they just widened the
- 38:59Speaker 4: ray within which a trade could arrive to be considered
- 39:02Speaker 4: on time. Suddenly, you know, one hundred percent of trains
- 39:05Speaker 4: run time. That's policy making.
- 39:07Speaker 2: That's classic government for you as well well. Also in
- 39:09Speaker 2: the Australian Tomorrow, the headline is Forest goes cold on
- 39:13Speaker 2: getting a leg up. Andrew Forest's private mining company says
- 39:17Speaker 2: the Albanezy government must avoid picking winners and subsidizing their
- 39:21Speaker 2: losers in trying to boost the rare earth sector. The
- 39:24Speaker 2: Forest family owned Wylou said the government's move to set
- 39:28Speaker 2: a floor price for rare earths was admirable, but must
- 39:32Speaker 2: include a mechanism to pay back financial support from taxpayers.
- 39:37Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure the whole green industry is about picking
- 39:40Speaker 2: winners and subsidizing them. Think about green hydrogen, think about quantity.
- 39:46Speaker 4: It's such a young mind becomes so cynical. Yes, I
- 39:50Speaker 4: think I think that the great heart isn't the Albanezi
- 39:52Speaker 4: government try to get some of the get back some
- 39:55Speaker 4: of the money that it gave. Yes, Forest cofies for
- 39:59Speaker 4: green hydrogens. You've got to admire Trigg. He's never going
- 40:02Speaker 4: to die. I'm wondering he's going to say, Oh, I
- 40:05Speaker 4: like him as fine. I don't know if you want
- 40:07Speaker 4: to be subsidizing those other that's good. I like his
- 40:10Speaker 4: I like his quick.
- 40:11Speaker 1: Spar I like the style well.
- 40:12Speaker 2: Also in the Australian Tomorrow, Union's one billion dollar worker
- 40:16Speaker 2: crisis plan risks NDIS reforms, the Health Services Union is
- 40:21Speaker 2: putting a one billion dollar hurdle in front of Labour's
- 40:23Speaker 2: NDIS reforms, telling the Albanezi government it must commit to
- 40:27Speaker 2: a new compact to stem the kera's workforce crisis if
- 40:31Speaker 2: it has any hope of enacting its proposed changes to
- 40:34Speaker 2: the six forty six billion dollar scheme. In the wake
- 40:37Speaker 2: of Health and Disability Minister Mark Butler's announcing the eligibility
- 40:42Speaker 2: to the scheme will change and a new two billion
- 40:45Speaker 2: dollar system of services outside the NDIS will be set
- 40:48Speaker 2: up for autistic children, unions and providers will meet in
- 40:51Speaker 2: Canberra to discuss the looming exodus of workers from the
- 40:54Speaker 2: disability sector. I understand their concern, but at the same
- 40:59Speaker 2: time time, what is interesting about the NDIS sector is
- 41:02Speaker 2: you don't actually need any qualifications to be a carer,
- 41:07Speaker 2: so you have a lot of people with no qualifications
- 41:09Speaker 2: and in quite good money, sucking people out of other
- 41:12Speaker 2: care sectors like childcare nursing because it's so much easier
- 41:16Speaker 2: to go into the ndis they need to rein it in.
- 41:20Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 41:20Speaker 3: Absolutely, we can't have a program that's going to be
- 41:23Speaker 3: costing close to fifty billion every year and continue to skyrocket, so.
- 41:27Speaker 1: We need to be raining it in.
- 41:29Speaker 3: I can see where there are concerns in terms of
- 41:31Speaker 3: the lack of support and cares that are on the program,
- 41:34Speaker 3: So we just need to ensure that the money is
- 41:35Speaker 3: going into the right spots because right now.
- 41:37Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's a really interesting one because the Health
- 41:40Speaker 4: Services Unit is head by a guy called Jared Hayes,
- 41:43Speaker 4: is very very smart, very influential in the Labor Party
- 41:47Speaker 4: in New South Wales in particular, hails from the right
- 41:50Speaker 4: of the party, so from the opposite side of Mark Butler.
- 41:53Speaker 4: But the HSU represents all the actual qualified healthcare workers,
- 41:57Speaker 4: so they would see themselves in opposition to all these
- 41:59Speaker 4: cowboys who have flooded the system recently who we're trying
- 42:03Speaker 4: to get rid of.
- 42:03Speaker 3: So it's it's going to be a very very interesting
- 42:06Speaker 3: stat Well, let's have a look at the camera times
- 42:09Speaker 3: now and there's calls for Bimburi cameras. So for youth detention,
- 42:14Speaker 3: the watchdog wants body worn devices after unacceptable incident reportings.
- 42:19Speaker 3: So this prison watchdog wants the body worn cameras in
- 42:23Speaker 3: Camera's Youth Detention Center, where the oversight of using force
- 42:27Speaker 3: against young people has been unacceptable. Body worn cameras have
- 42:31Speaker 3: not been used at the center before, but the ACT
- 42:33Speaker 3: government said it would consider deploying them. Two incidents in
- 42:36Speaker 3: which officers at the Youth Justice Center use force against
- 42:40Speaker 3: a detained young person raised significant concerns. The ACT National
- 42:45Speaker 3: Preventative Mechanism said after its first visit to the center,
- 42:50Speaker 3: the significant and sustained increase of young people in detention
- 42:53Speaker 3: had created pressure and affected their ability to uphold the
- 42:57Speaker 3: rights and wellbeing of young people.
- 42:59Speaker 1: I don't mind the fact that they have body cameras on.
- 43:02Speaker 9: I don't.
- 43:02Speaker 3: I don't see what the problem is because you can
- 43:05Speaker 3: report everything that's going on police.
- 43:08Speaker 4: The most camera thing ever, that they've decided that officers
- 43:11Speaker 4: should be made to wear body cameras not for their
- 43:14Speaker 4: own protection but for that of the inmates. Like it is,
- 43:18Speaker 4: it is just quintessential camera. Oh, I love it anyway
- 43:22Speaker 4: over to somewhere that is most definitely not camera. Although
- 43:25Speaker 4: the same woman did leave me to go to both
- 43:27Speaker 4: cities and never really came back. Anyway to the Towns
- 43:31Speaker 4: Bill bulletin now and this is Taipan crash, a cover up,
- 43:35Speaker 4: A very very sad story by mad when I say, mate,
- 43:40Speaker 4: I've met him once and we follow each other on Instagram.
- 43:42Speaker 4: But Jim Jeffrey is very very funny man, nothing to
- 43:45Speaker 4: laugh about in this one though. He has absolutely slammed
- 43:49Speaker 4: the Australian government over the findings of this chopper tragedy
- 43:54Speaker 4: that killed a guy, Lieutenant Max Newten, who happens to
- 43:58Speaker 4: be he's net or happened to be his nephew, which
- 44:02Speaker 4: gives you an idea of how old we've all gotten.
- 44:04Speaker 4: So this was a crash that took place in twenty
- 44:06Speaker 4: twenty three just off the coast of Queensland in the
- 44:10Speaker 4: with Sundays. I think there were four of them in
- 44:14Speaker 4: the crew that died. And it has now emerged that
- 44:18Speaker 4: there have been no there will be no charges laid
- 44:22Speaker 4: over anyone. And Jim Jefferies has come out and said
- 44:26Speaker 4: he said this is a cover up the government. This
- 44:27Speaker 4: is clearly cover up. No one's been held to account.
- 44:30Speaker 4: Maybe they are trying to protect the Defense Force. Maybe
- 44:33Speaker 4: accidents just happened, but a very very very sad story.
- 44:36Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely heartbreaking and they were so young, just unbelievable.
- 44:42Speaker 2: Well over in Tasmania in the mercury glass and a
- 44:46Speaker 2: half empty Tasmania's one see what they did? Zella Chocolate
- 44:51Speaker 2: Dream moves ahead minus the fountain. Cadbury's long awaited chocolate
- 44:56Speaker 2: experience has cleared a major hurdle, but the biggest talking
- 44:59Speaker 2: point is what's missing.
- 45:01Speaker 1: The world's tallest chocolate fountain.
- 45:03Speaker 2: Once built as a headline act, this spectacle has melted
- 45:06Speaker 2: from the plans, leaving chocoholics with a sour taste. That
- 45:11Speaker 2: is sad there will be no chocolate fountain, But I'm
- 45:14Speaker 2: pretty excited about a chocolate experience in Tasmania.
- 45:18Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree.
- 45:19Speaker 3: I mean, look, we don't have a chocolate fountain, but
- 45:20Speaker 3: is that the end of the world. We have a
- 45:22Speaker 3: delicious chocolate experience.
- 45:24Speaker 4: Is the point of having a chocolate factory without the
- 45:26Speaker 4: world's tallest chocolate fountain? Have you guys not read Willy Wonka?
- 45:30Speaker 4: It's got to have You can't just be making the chocolate.
- 45:32Speaker 4: But you know, forced labor from Wigans and I don't know,
- 45:36Speaker 4: are you going to have a bit of pizaz?
- 45:38Speaker 2: You got to have world's tallest chocolate chocolate fountain, Tasmania
- 45:42Speaker 2: is not famous or attractive enough on its own, but
- 45:46Speaker 2: coming up after the break an insane lefty meltdown plus
- 45:49Speaker 2: the male cheerleaders that are divining the NFL sick around,
- 45:56Speaker 2: Welcome back to the show. Well, there are some people
- 45:59Speaker 2: whose existed reminds us why we have stereotypes, because often
- 46:04Speaker 2: they're true.
- 46:05Speaker 1: Check this out.
- 46:07Speaker 10: People shouldn't have to work to prove their value team.
- 46:11Speaker 4: In fact, people shouldn't have to work.
- 46:14Speaker 10: People should want to work, and I want to.
- 46:19Speaker 4: Work and I do work, but it's like.
- 46:23Speaker 10: No amount of working reserveility enough to prove that I'm
- 46:29Speaker 10: not disabled, and no amount of work is going to
- 46:33Speaker 10: make me not disabled.
- 46:36Speaker 2: If she was in Australia, she wouldn't have to work
- 46:38Speaker 2: because she be on the NDI.
- 46:40Speaker 4: S not great? Is that you're proud, doesn't it?
- 46:43Speaker 1: I'm just backed. I don't know what the fingernails.
- 46:47Speaker 4: It's the whole commons alone be able to handle any
- 46:51Speaker 4: one aspect of that sort of vision, but it's the
- 46:53Speaker 4: whole thing put together. And think, you know what, when
- 46:56Speaker 4: you said you know whose very existence proves why we
- 46:59Speaker 4: have and then you said stereotypes, I was so sure
- 47:01Speaker 4: you were going to say natural selection. That would have
- 47:04Speaker 4: been completely inappropriate. So that speaks that reflects poorly on Well.
- 47:08Speaker 3: Let's head now to the US, where some NFL cheerleaders
- 47:11Speaker 3: have caused quite the storm. So this is over where
- 47:15Speaker 3: there's bit of twelve teams now have started to have
- 47:17Speaker 3: male cheerleaders. But take a look at this clip and
- 47:20Speaker 3: see if you think this is controversial.
- 47:23Speaker 1: Fresh off the minding. No man, not a man, not
- 47:28Speaker 1: a fighting.
- 47:31Speaker 3: So why this is causing a storm is those two
- 47:33Speaker 3: male cheerleaders behind those two women.
- 47:36Speaker 1: They're in the ladies'.
- 47:36Speaker 3: Bathroom, so apparently the boys followed the girls into the bathroom.
- 47:41Speaker 1: People have then said, and look, I have no issue
- 47:43Speaker 1: with male cheerleaders. I think it's greatly that they not.
- 47:46Speaker 1: I think it's great.
- 47:47Speaker 3: Who's going to throw the girls up and they flick
- 47:49Speaker 3: in the air and all that.
- 47:50Speaker 1: Sort of stuff. But this is the problem.
- 47:52Speaker 2: I have no issues with males doing all star cheerleading,
- 47:55Speaker 2: which I did when I lived in Canada, where you
- 47:58Speaker 2: actually have stunts and flips and backfoots and everything.
- 48:01Speaker 1: But NFL cheerleading is just dancing.
- 48:04Speaker 2: No one wants to see some very camp men prancing
- 48:07Speaker 2: around a football field.
- 48:09Speaker 1: It's just weird.
- 48:10Speaker 3: That's fine, But I do have an issue with them
- 48:12Speaker 3: following there women into the bathroom. I know they were
- 48:14Speaker 3: just doing a TikTok video, but we are in a
- 48:17Speaker 3: time in the world right now where we're.
- 48:19Speaker 4: Trying to protect or contentional and everything. But no, I
- 48:22Speaker 4: think I want my male cheerleaders to be camp. I mean,
- 48:25Speaker 4: you're not going to have a chance with the female
- 48:27Speaker 4: cheerleaders if they're not. You know what I'm saying. The
- 48:30Speaker 4: last thing you want is you know, I diff the
- 48:32Speaker 4: quarterback in there.
- 48:33Speaker 1: I get you.
- 48:34Speaker 4: Again, I'm the only person thinking clearly about this thing. Okay,
- 48:37Speaker 4: And speaking of my pantheon of comedian friends, Dave Hughes,
- 48:42Speaker 4: another Made of Mind lovely bloke. Dave Hughes is called
- 48:45Speaker 4: on the AFL to acts Grand Final entertainer Snoop Dog
- 48:49Speaker 4: over homophobic podcast comments. Dave Hughes have said this after
- 48:54Speaker 4: the American rapper made controversial comics about same sex couples
- 48:58Speaker 4: the same day that Isaac Rank He was slapped with
- 49:01Speaker 4: a four week band is Adelaide Crowe's player for making
- 49:04Speaker 4: a homophobic slur. Now this was him calling another player
- 49:08Speaker 4: something and now Snoop Dogg, who's had the same word
- 49:12Speaker 4: in previous songs of his is playing at the AFL
- 49:14Speaker 4: Grand Final and Hughesy says that's not funny at all,
- 49:17Speaker 4: and if there's one guy knows funny, it's Dave Hughes Yeah.
- 49:20Speaker 2: Well, that's all we have time for tonight, but stay
- 49:22Speaker 2: tuned because the Red of Panney Show is up next
