- 0:00Speaker 1: Lately.
- 0:02Speaker 2: Welcome to the Late Debase and Paul is roaring out
- 0:09Speaker 2: of the car park as we speak. Welcome to the program.
- 0:11Speaker 2: I'm Caleb Bond with Frey Leitch and Dnika to Georgio.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Here's what's coming up tonight. A radical plan from the
- 0:17Speaker 2: European Union to let kids pick their own gender without
- 0:21Speaker 2: seeing a doctor or having therapy, and sanctioned countries that
- 0:24Speaker 2: don't give in to extreme gender ideology. That's soon. And
- 0:28Speaker 2: what a momentous day Israel and Gaza on the edge
- 0:31Speaker 2: of a peace steel broken by Donald Trump? Is there
- 0:33Speaker 2: anything the man can't do? And later the country where
- 0:49Speaker 2: they've had such a great apple season that the cider
- 0:52Speaker 2: has turned out too alcoholic and now the brewers can't
- 0:56Speaker 2: sell it to the pubs. But first, you can't believe
- 0:59Speaker 2: it's another only in Victoria story. You can't be serious, man,
- 1:06Speaker 2: You cannot be serious. I know. I feel like I've
- 1:10Speaker 2: done one every night this week. But it is Victoria,
- 1:13Speaker 2: so here we are. It's another Only in Victoria's story.
- 1:16Speaker 2: And we talked extensively last night about the state of
- 1:18Speaker 2: the bail system and the justice system, the crime problems
- 1:21Speaker 2: they're having in Victoria, and just yet another example of
- 1:25Speaker 2: how and why things are so bad, particularly when it
- 1:29Speaker 2: comes to youth crime. Today, it's a fourteen year old
- 1:33Speaker 2: boy who has been bailed now for the third time,
- 1:38Speaker 2: despite the fact that the address he has been bailed
- 1:41Speaker 2: to is like within walking distance up the road from
- 1:44Speaker 2: his co accused. He's been accused of home invasion, carrying weapons,
- 1:50Speaker 2: multiple aggravated burglaries, motor vehicle thefts, on and on it goes,
- 1:56Speaker 2: all in the course of this year. Now. Last time
- 2:00Speaker 2: he got picked up in September and they put him
- 2:03Speaker 2: in the cells and he's been there ever since. But
- 2:06Speaker 2: he's gone and applied for bail and lo and behold,
- 2:09Speaker 2: he gets it now. Of course, these crimes are alleged,
- 2:12Speaker 2: so he's not convicted of anything. We don't know that
- 2:15Speaker 2: he's actually committed any crime. But you know, I think
- 2:19Speaker 2: you get the picture that if you've been bailed three
- 2:23Speaker 2: times in the course of a year, so you've been
- 2:24Speaker 2: accused of a crime, you've been released on bail, and
- 2:29Speaker 2: then you get arrested again, and then you get bail again,
- 2:33Speaker 2: and then you get arrested again and they put you
- 2:36Speaker 2: in the clink for a month and then they let
- 2:38Speaker 2: you out again. To live up the road from the
- 2:40Speaker 2: people who are your co accused, Like, how does it
- 2:44Speaker 2: get any dumber?
- 2:46Speaker 3: Well, the problem is because they keep getting released on
- 2:49Speaker 3: bail and then reoffending and then released again. The message
- 2:53Speaker 3: that these kids are getting sent is that it actually
- 2:57Speaker 3: doesn't matter. They can go off and do what whatever
- 3:00Speaker 3: they want because they won't face severe penalties. There's a
- 3:04Speaker 3: group of eleven hundred kids in Victoria between the ages
- 3:09Speaker 3: of ten and seventeen who in the year to June
- 3:12Speaker 3: of twenty twenty five were arrested seven thousand times in
- 3:17Speaker 3: one year. Seven thousand times eleven hundred kids. So this
- 3:21Speaker 3: youth crime crisis is being driven by repeat offenders. The
- 3:26Speaker 3: best way to deal with repeat offenders is to lock
- 3:29Speaker 3: them up. But again we've seen just today a new
- 3:33Speaker 3: Bench book of guidance on how to apply bail laws
- 3:37Speaker 3: given to Victorian magistrates saying use bail as a last resort,
- 3:41Speaker 3: go for the least interventionist approach, especially when you're dealing
- 3:45Speaker 3: with indigenous youth. So again you have a legal system
- 3:50Speaker 3: that doesn't want to actually enforce the law and has
- 3:52Speaker 3: been so taken over by woke ideology that they're putting
- 3:56Speaker 3: the feelings of criminal delinquents, of the safety of Victorians.
- 4:02Speaker 1: It's insane and what message does that send to victims.
- 4:04Speaker 1: I mean, this is half of the problem.
- 4:06Speaker 4: I mean it basically says to victims, you're not the
- 4:08Speaker 4: priority here. And we're seeing this time and time again
- 4:11Speaker 4: in Victoria. I just said to Alan has absolutely no
- 4:13Speaker 4: clue whatsoever how to deal with this youth crime crisis.
- 4:16Speaker 4: And we only have to look at the machete bins
- 4:18Speaker 4: for example too as an example of how.
- 4:20Speaker 1: She thinks you can deal.
- 4:21Speaker 4: We have got youth offenders laughing in our faces because
- 4:26Speaker 4: guess what, they're.
- 4:27Speaker 1: Out smarting everyone. They know.
- 4:29Speaker 4: As soon as that they go to court, all they
- 4:31Speaker 4: do is get a slap on the wrist. They're back
- 4:33Speaker 4: out there the next day, and that cycle of crime
- 4:35Speaker 4: continues over and over. And this is not just a
- 4:38Speaker 4: Victorian problem. This is a nationwide problem, I've got to say.
- 4:42Speaker 1: But to give it to.
- 4:42Speaker 4: Queensland, they've actually seen youth crime drop since they introduced
- 4:48Speaker 4: adult crime adult time laws, and they say that it's
- 4:51Speaker 4: actually reduced by more than ten percent across the state.
- 4:54Speaker 4: But it goes to your point, freyer lock these kids up.
- 4:57Speaker 4: I don't care how old they are.
- 4:58Speaker 2: I couldn't.
- 4:59Speaker 1: I could not.
- 5:00Speaker 4: Care less because the issue is they are doing this
- 5:03Speaker 4: time and time again. So no no sympathy here and
- 5:07Speaker 4: I don't buy this DOLLI incapax argument. But you know, children,
- 5:13Speaker 4: you know under fourteen are incapable of evil.
- 5:15Speaker 1: You know, give me a break.
- 5:16Speaker 4: There was a kid in New South Wales last year,
- 5:19Speaker 4: eleven years old who was in the children's court for
- 5:22Speaker 4: the seventieth time in his life.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Eleven years old. They know what they're doing and they're
- 5:27Speaker 1: out smarting all of us.
- 5:28Speaker 2: No dnegri he couldn't possibly understand right from wrong. Just
- 5:32Speaker 2: listen to this. This is from the report in the
- 5:33Speaker 2: Herald Sun today. This is what the kid has to
- 5:35Speaker 2: do to adhere to his bail conditions. On Thursday, the
- 5:39Speaker 2: court heard, as part of intensive bail conditions intensive right,
- 5:43Speaker 2: Just keep that in mind, the team would engage in
- 5:46Speaker 2: two youth justice sessions a week. That's intensive, and would
- 5:51Speaker 2: be required to go to school for at least fifteen
- 5:53Speaker 2: hours a week. I'll come back to that. But prosecutors
- 5:56Speaker 2: made an impassioned plea for the boy to remain behind bars,
- 5:59Speaker 2: starting zerms of him returning to his local area where
- 6:02Speaker 2: he allegedly offended and would be living near his co accused.
- 6:05Speaker 2: This is the quote from the prosecutor. He started networking
- 6:08Speaker 2: actively with at least two other groups in his local area.
- 6:12Speaker 2: I mean, how much more obvious could it be that,
- 6:15Speaker 2: you know, for the benefit of this kid, he should
- 6:17Speaker 2: probably be behind bars to protect him from these influences
- 6:21Speaker 2: in his life. But you know, he's going to go
- 6:23Speaker 2: to these two youth justice sessions, whatever the hell they are.
- 6:27Speaker 2: But he's got to spend at least fifteen hours a
- 6:29Speaker 2: week at school. A school day is six hours a day,
- 6:33Speaker 2: so six times five is thirty. So he's only got
- 6:37Speaker 2: to spend half the week at school in order to
- 6:39Speaker 2: adhere him to his bail condition.
- 6:42Speaker 4: What the other issue is, and we don't talk about
- 6:44Speaker 4: this enough, where are the parents?
- 6:46Speaker 1: Right? You know?
- 6:46Speaker 4: I understand people, You know, kids can come from very
- 6:49Speaker 4: difficult upbringings, different households, But for goodness sake, our parents going,
- 6:54Speaker 4: oh where's John?
- 6:55Speaker 1: At six pm at night?
- 6:56Speaker 4: He should be at the dinner table having dinner with us,
- 6:59Speaker 4: and he's out, you know, ransacking homes and carjacking.
- 7:02Speaker 1: You just think parents also have a responsibility.
- 7:05Speaker 4: And I do agree that the justice system has let
- 7:07Speaker 4: us down time and time again. But come on, I mean,
- 7:10Speaker 4: I think that we need to actually also start pointing
- 7:13Speaker 4: the finger at parents as well. But anyway, let's move
- 7:15Speaker 4: on to the European Union.
- 7:18Speaker 1: What's going on.
- 7:22Speaker 5: We're coming for them, We're coming, oh dear, well, look
- 7:33Speaker 5: the European Union time and time again pushing a woke
- 7:36Speaker 5: ideology on the rest of the world.
- 7:38Speaker 4: But I've got to say this one really takes the
- 7:40Speaker 4: cake because now they're considering new proposals which would mean
- 7:45Speaker 4: that children are allowed to choose their own gender. You
- 7:49Speaker 4: heard that, correct, Children would be able to choose their
- 7:52Speaker 4: own gender and member states would be able to be
- 7:55Speaker 4: punished for challenging gender ideology.
- 7:58Speaker 1: Now you heard that? Right now?
- 7:59Speaker 4: This is part of the European Commissions new LGBTIQ plus
- 8:04Speaker 4: a quality strategy for the next couple of years, and
- 8:06Speaker 4: I want to share with you some of the highlights
- 8:09Speaker 4: of what they're proposing. Firstly, any age limits on gender
- 8:12Speaker 4: recognition could be scrapped, and therapy to check whether children
- 8:16Speaker 4: want to change their gender would be outlawed. So therefore,
- 8:19Speaker 4: if a child is confused questioning their own gender, then
- 8:23Speaker 4: it doesn't matter. You don't have to go and see
- 8:25Speaker 4: a therapist. You don't have to go and see a GP.
- 8:27Speaker 4: It would be very easy for a child to go,
- 8:29Speaker 4: I'm a boy, but actually I think I'm a girl.
- 8:31Speaker 1: Booth. That's it too.
- 8:33Speaker 4: It suggests blocking funds from discriminating regions and supports the
- 8:37Speaker 4: strengthening of equality bodies. So what if a member state says, no, no, no,
- 8:42Speaker 4: I don't agree with this plan, Oh, well we're going
- 8:44Speaker 4: to block your funds.
- 8:45Speaker 1: You're going to be punished for that.
- 8:46Speaker 4: And it also suggests a ban on talking therapy for
- 8:49Speaker 4: children suffering from gender issues. Now, look, I actually I'm
- 8:53Speaker 4: really really worried about this, to be honest, this sets
- 8:57Speaker 4: a very dangerous precedent because what does is it says parents,
- 9:02Speaker 4: mom and dad, you've got no say in what happens here.
- 9:05Speaker 4: When a child who can barely read or write, could
- 9:08Speaker 4: be any age child can barely read or right, can't vote,
- 9:10Speaker 4: can't drive, but suddenly is able to make an adult
- 9:14Speaker 4: decision to change their bodies and cause irreparable damage, and
- 9:20Speaker 4: you don't know what's going to happen later on in life.
- 9:21Speaker 4: This is extremely dangerous. The consequences for children are particularly bad.
- 9:27Speaker 4: But what on earth is the European Commission doing, and
- 9:29Speaker 4: my concern is that countries around the world would follow suit. Now,
- 9:33Speaker 4: obviously this has to go through a process, but we
- 9:36Speaker 4: are already seeing this sort of gender ideology starting in
- 9:39Speaker 4: Australia and who's not to say it could go further.
- 9:41Speaker 4: Look what's happening again only in Victoria. You've got this
- 9:45Speaker 4: program that just into Alan implemented whereby a teacher can
- 9:50Speaker 4: ask a child if you don't feel like you're a boy,
- 9:52Speaker 4: you don't feel like you're a girl, that's all right,
- 9:54Speaker 4: you can question your own gender. I mean the ideology
- 9:56Speaker 4: has started. And if this is going on now in
- 10:00Speaker 4: the European Union, where children are going to be able
- 10:02Speaker 4: to pick their gender, Caleb, where does it end?
- 10:05Speaker 2: Well? How smart do the Poms look right now having
- 10:08Speaker 2: built out of the European Union? Right, Because it's you know,
- 10:11Speaker 2: the business about saying well, children can can choose their gender.
- 10:14Speaker 2: We've heard it before and it is sick. But when
- 10:16Speaker 2: you then add on that you're going to use the
- 10:19Speaker 2: long arm of the law and the funding that you
- 10:22Speaker 2: give to nations to say, well, you either fall into
- 10:26Speaker 2: line or you lose money. I mean you're at a
- 10:29Speaker 2: coercive point there where you're saying you just have to
- 10:33Speaker 2: adhere to gender ideology. There's no questioning we get rid
- 10:36Speaker 2: of recognized forms of therapy. You have to fall into
- 10:39Speaker 2: line or will take your money away. I mean that
- 10:43Speaker 2: is insane and particularly I can't believe. And yes, this
- 10:47Speaker 2: has to go through a process of ratification if it's
- 10:48Speaker 2: to come in, you know, there's in all likelihood it
- 10:51Speaker 2: won't get past and I hope that that is the case.
- 10:54Speaker 2: But the fact that this would even be put up
- 10:56Speaker 2: before the European Union when most of the Western world
- 11:01Speaker 2: has started to wake up to where gender ideology is
- 11:04Speaker 2: at and that we have gone too hard for too
- 11:07Speaker 2: long and that harm has been caused. The cash report
- 11:10Speaker 2: out of the UK, most of the world is actually
- 11:14Speaker 2: turning the dial down on this stuff, and the European
- 11:18Speaker 2: Union is turning around and saying, well, actually maybe we
- 11:21Speaker 2: should ratchet it up. That is insane.
- 11:24Speaker 3: Yeah, And the other element of the report was they
- 11:27Speaker 3: have a whole section dedicated to combating transphobia online through
- 11:33Speaker 3: combating disinformation about LGBTQ stuff. All that they're now empowered
- 11:39Speaker 3: to do under their Digital Services Act, which essentially gives
- 11:42Speaker 3: the European Union huge powers to coerce social media giants
- 11:46Speaker 3: to take things down at their will, much like what
- 11:49Speaker 3: we've seen now in Australia with our e Safety Commissioner.
- 11:52Speaker 3: And that's where this is all headed really, because the
- 11:55Speaker 3: general population does not support this, even if you're not
- 11:57Speaker 3: a conservative. This is not left all right, This is
- 12:01Speaker 3: common sense versus insanity. So how do they convince the
- 12:05Speaker 3: population to go along with it through censorship? And the
- 12:08Speaker 3: report's very clear about that. It's all about combating disinformation.
- 12:12Speaker 3: But if I were a parent in the European Union
- 12:15Speaker 3: right now, I'd be packing my kids up and leaving
- 12:18Speaker 3: because that is terrifying. You could now be facing the
- 12:21Speaker 3: prospect of setting them off to school and then they
- 12:23Speaker 3: come back and say, Mom, Dad, haven't been too therapy,
- 12:26Speaker 3: haven't seen a doctor, haven't done anything, but I'm now
- 12:28Speaker 3: a boy.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 12:30Speaker 4: But you know, at least the UK had that court
- 12:32Speaker 4: decision a couple of months ago whereby you know, an
- 12:35Speaker 4: adult woman was actually defined. You know, you can actually
- 12:39Speaker 4: define the sexes. But here in Australia we don't know
- 12:42Speaker 4: what a woman is in our own Sex Discrimination Commissioner
- 12:45Speaker 4: this week in the Senate estimates she couldn't even define
- 12:48Speaker 4: the difference between a biological man and a biological woman. And
- 12:50Speaker 4: this is where it starts to get very on edge
- 12:53Speaker 4: when the definitions in law they're not clearly defined. Even
- 12:56Speaker 4: though why we need laws to empoint?
- 12:58Speaker 1: Fine? But in court, why did it accord to tell you?
- 13:01Speaker 4: But once that ideology starts, it doesn't end well.
- 13:05Speaker 3: Speaking of the UK, the UK Prime Minister Sekis Starma
- 13:09Speaker 3: is in India and has met with the architect of
- 13:13Speaker 3: India's digital ID system. He met with Nandan Nilakhani and
- 13:18Speaker 3: was then spreaking how wonderful digital ideas. Just look how
- 13:24Speaker 3: fantastic India is. He said, there is a case to
- 13:27Speaker 3: be made about the benefits for voluntary ID into other areas,
- 13:31Speaker 3: and obviously we need to make that case. We're going
- 13:34Speaker 3: to a country India, where they've already done ID and
- 13:37Speaker 3: made a massive success of it. So when Starma says
- 13:42Speaker 3: India has done digital ID, that is very true. But
- 13:47Speaker 3: their digital ID goes so far beyond just a digitization
- 13:53Speaker 3: of records or your license.
- 13:56Speaker 2: No.
- 13:56Speaker 3: No, they track your residential address. They have iometric data
- 14:01Speaker 3: on every single citizen. One point three billion people are
- 14:05Speaker 3: using this thing. You need a digital ID to access
- 14:08Speaker 3: any government payments, to enroll in schools, to go to hospitals.
- 14:13Speaker 3: And this is a whole of society thing that is
- 14:16Speaker 3: required to even function in India. Now kirst Arma's gone
- 14:20Speaker 3: off there and gone, see look how well digital ID
- 14:23Speaker 3: is going. If India is your example, the UK is
- 14:28Speaker 3: in trouble.
- 14:28Speaker 2: Well, I mean, if we should do a digital ID
- 14:30Speaker 2: because India did it, let's have a caste system as well,
- 14:33Speaker 2: because they do that too. But he went on to say,
- 14:36Speaker 2: and he's to do the journos along his trip in India,
- 14:39Speaker 2: he said, and this is hilarious, he says, I don't
- 14:42Speaker 2: know how many times this is justifying way you need
- 14:44Speaker 2: a digital D and say it's going to spand you
- 14:46Speaker 2: know it'll be more than just getting a job. I
- 14:48Speaker 2: don't know how many times the rest of you have
- 14:51Speaker 2: had to look in the bottom drawer for three bills
- 14:53Speaker 2: when you want to get your kids into school or
- 14:55Speaker 2: apply for this or apply for that. Drives me to frustration.
- 15:00Speaker 2: You think we could gain a significant advantage. Yes, that's
- 15:04Speaker 2: how he's now selling the idea of digital ID that
- 15:07Speaker 2: when you're sending your kids of little Johnny goes off
- 15:10Speaker 2: to kinder, you won't need to find three bills. And
- 15:14Speaker 2: he's setting it up, as we said from the beginning,
- 15:18Speaker 2: it's all, well, we need this to stop illegal migration
- 15:21Speaker 2: because they're coming to take our jobs, and so you'll
- 15:24Speaker 2: need a digital ID to prove that you are a
- 15:26Speaker 2: citizen of the UK, have a visa or whatever the
- 15:28Speaker 2: hell it is. It begins as that, and then it
- 15:31Speaker 2: becomes well, there's all these other things we can link
- 15:33Speaker 2: up to your digital ID too. It's going to make
- 15:36Speaker 2: your life easier. It also means the government has oversight
- 15:40Speaker 2: of everything you do, and that's what he is now saying.
- 15:44Speaker 2: You can use it to apply for a bank loan,
- 15:46Speaker 2: you can use it to get your kid into school,
- 15:49Speaker 2: you can use it to pay your utility bills. Suddenly
- 15:53Speaker 2: everything is linked to your digital ID, which is linked
- 15:55Speaker 2: to the government. Get it away from Yeah.
- 15:57Speaker 4: He's really trying the hard sell at the moment, so Kia,
- 16:01Speaker 4: isn't he. But he also said, actually another quote, he said,
- 16:04Speaker 4: so on the one hand, it's mandatory for work, but
- 16:07Speaker 4: I actually think it would be a good passport. So
- 16:10Speaker 4: where slowly he's creeping in is it he's really just
- 16:14Speaker 4: expanding his horizons it's gone from immigration now, it's gone
- 16:18Speaker 4: from everyday life now, passports down the track and of
- 16:22Speaker 4: course all under the guise of proof of the right
- 16:24Speaker 4: to work and.
- 16:25Speaker 1: Live in the United Kingdom.
- 16:26Speaker 4: Look, this is actually really dangerous and I can see
- 16:29Speaker 4: why Kiirstarma is so low in the polls because there
- 16:32Speaker 4: has been such a backlash across Britain towards this, because
- 16:36Speaker 4: it really is big Brother is watching, he's and if
- 16:40Speaker 4: India has got biometrics, that in itself is frightening. And
- 16:45Speaker 4: we know that kirs Starma, he loves to be influenced there.
- 16:47Speaker 4: He's very easily influenced by people. So I feel for
- 16:51Speaker 4: the UK and I just think that this is a
- 16:52Speaker 4: real worry.
- 16:53Speaker 1: It is absolutely a form of control.
- 16:55Speaker 2: And you know, if they can start to use it
- 16:57Speaker 2: for your excess to services, they can also potentially catch
- 17:00Speaker 2: offer service there, right, And this is what Nigel fra
- 17:03Speaker 2: has talked about. You know he was debanked, but that
- 17:07Speaker 2: was without a digital ID. But they could start doing
- 17:09Speaker 2: this stuff very fast and could be behaviors that they
- 17:12Speaker 2: deemer that they don't like, like you know, I like
- 17:14Speaker 2: a punt for instance. And you know, it's always been
- 17:16Speaker 2: the good thing about going to the pub or the tap.
- 17:18Speaker 2: You're punting cash and they can't track what you're doing.
- 17:22Speaker 2: But you know eventually they'll take that away and then
- 17:24Speaker 2: they'll say, well, in order to use a betting service online,
- 17:26Speaker 2: you'll have to give you a digital ID to prove
- 17:28Speaker 2: who you are, and then the government will track how
- 17:30Speaker 2: much you're betting, and then they'll knock on the door
- 17:32Speaker 2: and say, excuse me, sir, you can bet no more
- 17:35Speaker 2: because it's a bad thing. And that's what this chap
- 17:38Speaker 2: in the UK wishes happened to him. Now. His name
- 17:42Speaker 2: is Lee Gibson and he's a multimillionaire. He's a property developer.
- 17:46Speaker 2: He's not short of a quid. But he put nearly
- 17:50Speaker 2: one and a half million pounds through Betfair, which is
- 17:54Speaker 2: a betting company, and he says that they should have
- 17:58Speaker 2: stopped him before he did. And bear in mind that
- 18:00Speaker 2: the man has millions of dollars. It's not like his
- 18:03Speaker 2: destitute because he gambled this money and he gambled it
- 18:06Speaker 2: over the course of a decade between twenty and nine
- 18:09Speaker 2: and twenty nineteen. But he is now going off to
- 18:12Speaker 2: court in the UK to say that Betfair should have
- 18:15Speaker 2: worked out that he was a problem gambler and stopped
- 18:18Speaker 2: him from gambling all that money away. And look, as
- 18:22Speaker 2: I said, I like a punt. That's not a secret.
- 18:25Speaker 2: I own horses, owned dogs. I'm going to the Adelaide Cup,
- 18:29Speaker 2: the Greyhound version of Tomorrow Night, so see you're there,
- 18:31Speaker 2: if you're there. So I have no aversion to gambling.
- 18:34Speaker 2: And I understand that, Yes, bookies do have some level
- 18:38Speaker 2: of responsibility, and generally I think they're pretty good at
- 18:42Speaker 2: shutting people down. They often shut people there when they
- 18:45Speaker 2: win too much as well. I should not because you know,
- 18:48Speaker 2: we can't have them on the books. But there are
- 18:50Speaker 2: rules in place across the western world, so it's one
- 18:52Speaker 2: of the laxus countries. But in the UK, in particularly,
- 18:55Speaker 2: they're much stricter than they are here about keeping on
- 18:58Speaker 2: top of this stuff. If you've got a block who
- 19:00Speaker 2: has millions of dollars and over the course of ten
- 19:02Speaker 2: years puts a million and a half pounds through the bookies,
- 19:06Speaker 2: you wouldn't necessarily look at him and go, oh, well,
- 19:08Speaker 2: he's a problem gambling. You just say he's a guy
- 19:10Speaker 2: with a lot of money who's gambling a lot of money,
- 19:12Speaker 2: as is his right. But he now thinks that the
- 19:15Speaker 2: courts should do something about it. Mate, why didn't you
- 19:18Speaker 2: just go get some help if you think you were
- 19:19Speaker 2: a problem gambling?
- 19:20Speaker 3: Well, his claim is essentially that the gambling company owes
- 19:24Speaker 3: him a duty of care to protect him from himself.
- 19:29Speaker 3: That's the fundamental argument, which just on a legal level,
- 19:32Speaker 3: really makes absolutely no sense. And if you extended that
- 19:35Speaker 3: to every industry and said everyone has a duty of
- 19:39Speaker 3: care to protect people from themselves, I mean, there goes
- 19:42Speaker 3: personal responsibility out the window, and then what kind of
- 19:46Speaker 3: a society would we be left with. It would be crazy.
- 19:49Speaker 3: But the other thing is the gambling company did take
- 19:51Speaker 3: steps to stop him. They disabled his account back in
- 19:54Speaker 3: twenty nineteen, so now he's claiming the losses from the
- 19:58Speaker 3: decade before that. I mean, this is ridiculous, and it
- 20:02Speaker 3: should be noted the case already went to the High Court.
- 20:05Speaker 3: It was thrown out in the High Court. Now it's
- 20:07Speaker 3: going to the Court of Appeal. So I think it's
- 20:09Speaker 3: more litigious and just about proving a point. But the
- 20:12Speaker 3: point it's trying to prove is stupid and society would
- 20:15Speaker 3: crumble if it were actually to succeed as a case.
- 20:18Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, and the reality is is this guy
- 20:20Speaker 4: is a multi millionaire and by all accounts, is a
- 20:23Speaker 4: professional gambler. Like we're not talking some amateur who's just
- 20:26Speaker 4: you know, gone down to the slot machine on a
- 20:27Speaker 4: Saturday night and given it a crack. Like this guy
- 20:30Speaker 4: knows exactly what he's doing, so what he wants the
- 20:33Speaker 4: gambling company to try and save him from his own stupidity.
- 20:37Speaker 4: You know, it's just ridiculous. But my issue now with
- 20:40Speaker 4: this is in the event that you know, this obviously
- 20:43Speaker 4: going to the Court of Appeal. Okay, so say, for instance,
- 20:45Speaker 4: the Court of Appeal rules in favor of this man. Gee,
- 20:48Speaker 4: that sets a pretty big precedent, does it not for
- 20:52Speaker 4: gambling companies.
- 20:53Speaker 1: I mean, if beth Fair is found to have.
- 20:57Speaker 4: You know, not stepped in enough and you know, stopped
- 21:01Speaker 4: him from gambling, every man and their dog are going
- 21:04Speaker 4: to start suing every single bedding.
- 21:07Speaker 1: Company because they're going to go, well, I've run out
- 21:09Speaker 1: of money. What can I do? Actually, you know what,
- 21:12Speaker 1: I'm going to sue the betting company. And this is
- 21:15Speaker 1: exactly what they're going to do.
- 21:16Speaker 2: The bookie forcibly took the money from my hands, you know,
- 21:20Speaker 2: I mean, can you imagine Kerry Packer back in the day,
- 21:23Speaker 2: and he liked to have a large water cash on
- 21:25Speaker 2: a horse, picking out the phone of the tab and
- 21:28Speaker 2: the toab saying, oh sorry, mister Packer, we'd like to
- 21:31Speaker 2: see your payslip before you put the bed on. I mean,
- 21:33Speaker 2: you're can imagine what are you want to say?
- 21:34Speaker 1: Exactly? No, well look exactly now.
- 21:37Speaker 4: Look they said Donald Trump couldn't do it, and guess
- 21:41Speaker 4: what he has, because today we have found out that
- 21:44Speaker 4: Hamas has indeed agreed to the plan that's been put
- 21:49Speaker 4: forward by Donald Trump for peace. This will be the
- 21:51Speaker 4: first phase of the deal, where it is expected that
- 21:55Speaker 4: twenty living Israeli hostages will be released over the weekend.
- 21:58Speaker 4: Israeli Defense Force will also retreat from seventy percent of
- 22:02Speaker 4: the Gaza strip and work will begin to disarm and
- 22:05Speaker 4: exalt the terrorists from Gaza. Look, this is absolutely phenomenal.
- 22:10Speaker 4: Here is what we know so far. We'll bring up
- 22:12Speaker 4: that graphic so her Mus to release all the hostages,
- 22:14Speaker 4: IDF withdrawal to a greed line, Palestinian prisoners freed, and
- 22:18Speaker 4: the entry of aid into Gaza. Here was the moment
- 22:23Speaker 4: that Donald Trump found out officially that Hamas had indeed
- 22:27Speaker 4: agreed to his plan.
- 22:29Speaker 1: To find the criminal conspiracy.
- 22:31Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, I was just given a note by the
- 22:39Speaker 6: Secretary of Stage saying that we're very close to a
- 22:41Speaker 6: deal in the Middle East and they're going to need
- 22:44Speaker 6: me pretty quickly.
- 22:47Speaker 4: And as you can imagine, this has been met with celebrations.
- 22:50Speaker 4: I mean, for two years, Israel has been at a standstill.
- 22:54Speaker 4: It doesn't know when it was going to be attacked
- 22:55Speaker 4: again by its enemy. And we've seen celebrations, finally, jubilation
- 23:01Speaker 4: out of Israel because.
- 23:02Speaker 1: They know that they finally have a way forward.
- 23:05Speaker 4: Have a look at some of the celebrations that we
- 23:08Speaker 4: have been seen taking place. But look, I've got to
- 23:11Speaker 4: say Donald Trump should be commended here because he is
- 23:16Speaker 4: the only leader in the world who has had the
- 23:18Speaker 4: moral courage to take this song to come up with
- 23:21Speaker 4: a plan. While you had people like Anthony Arbenzi and
- 23:25Speaker 4: Serkia Stamer falling over themselves in a congoline at the
- 23:28Speaker 4: United Nations recognizing a Palestinian state, Donald Trump was working
- 23:32Speaker 4: in the background on a plan for peace for the
- 23:35Speaker 4: very first time since twelve hundred Jews were slaughtered, women
- 23:40Speaker 4: were raped, and the hostages were taken. Donald Trump has
- 23:44Speaker 4: been strong on this from the beginning. You recall back
- 23:46Speaker 4: in January he said to Hummus, if you do not
- 23:48Speaker 4: release these hostages, there will be hell to pay. A
- 23:51Speaker 4: week and a half ago, he said to Benjamin Ett Yahu,
- 23:54Speaker 4: if her Must has not come to the table on this,
- 23:55Speaker 4: you have my full permission to do whatever you need
- 23:58Speaker 4: to do. That takes a lot of courage. It takes
- 24:01Speaker 4: a lot of moral courage to do so. Now I think,
- 24:04Speaker 4: right now I feel it's cautious optimism because I won't
- 24:08Speaker 4: believe it until this actually happens. Harmas have They've never
- 24:12Speaker 4: followed through. A couple of months ago, they did that
- 24:14Speaker 4: prisoner swap in exchange for hostages, but then they broke
- 24:17Speaker 4: that cease fire.
- 24:18Speaker 1: And they've done this multiple times.
- 24:20Speaker 4: So whilst I think this is fantastic news, I don't
- 24:23Speaker 4: think we can be like, yay, it's all.
- 24:25Speaker 1: I'll believe it when I see it.
- 24:26Speaker 4: But for the first time, you've got the Middle East
- 24:29Speaker 4: on board with this, and I think that it really
- 24:30Speaker 4: was the Middle East and States that pushed Hermas to
- 24:32Speaker 4: do this, And it essentially means that Hamas will have
- 24:35Speaker 4: to lay down their arms.
- 24:37Speaker 1: This is huge Frayer.
- 24:38Speaker 3: And it's the ultimate vindication of the Piece through Strength doctrine,
- 24:42Speaker 3: because that's the only reason this deal has gone through,
- 24:45Speaker 3: Because there is a credible and serious threat that if
- 24:48Speaker 3: Hamas doesn't accept the deal, Israel will continue, Israel will
- 24:52Speaker 3: go into Gaza City and they will destroy whatever is
- 24:56Speaker 3: left of Hamas once and for all. But for this
- 25:00Speaker 3: deal to get to this point, that threat had to
- 25:03Speaker 3: be very real and very believed. And as much as
- 25:06Speaker 3: people criticized it at the time, Israel's strike on the
- 25:10Speaker 3: Hamas leaders in Doha in Qatar also tip the scales.
- 25:14Speaker 3: All of a sudden, the Middle Eastern States went, oh
- 25:16Speaker 3: my gosh, they've hit Iran. The US joined in, They've
- 25:19Speaker 3: hit Qatar.
- 25:21Speaker 1: Who else are they going to hit?
- 25:22Speaker 3: We need to actually stop this now. But the critical
- 25:26Speaker 3: thing here, though, is one, what will actually happen to Hamas?
- 25:32Speaker 3: How do they actually deride clie the Gazan population? And
- 25:36Speaker 3: this is going to come at immense costs. Around one
- 25:40Speaker 3: thousand Israeli soldiers who were already died finding the war
- 25:43Speaker 3: in Gaza. Now you've got thousands of prisoners that are
- 25:46Speaker 3: going to be released, some of whom participated in October
- 25:50Speaker 3: seven and they're going to go back into Gaza and
- 25:52Speaker 3: just live a happy dandy life.
- 25:54Speaker 1: I mean, gosh, where do they go? Now? Where are
- 25:58Speaker 1: these terrorists going to go?
- 26:00Speaker 2: Well, I mean there's a lot, there's a lot to
- 26:02Speaker 2: This is the early stages, right there is. There's a
- 26:04Speaker 2: lot to come. But I've just got to say that
- 26:07Speaker 2: the guy who wrote the Art of the Deal proves
- 26:10Speaker 2: again how he pulls off the deal. He had Hamas
- 26:13Speaker 2: exactly where he wanted him, he had Nitnya who exactly
- 26:16Speaker 2: where he wanted him. He had it all sorted and
- 26:19Speaker 2: ready to go. He laid it all down and by
- 26:22Speaker 2: all accounts he's been able to pull it off. And
- 26:24Speaker 2: it's very hard to think of anyone else who would
- 26:26Speaker 2: be able to do.
- 26:27Speaker 3: That exactly right. Well, this is a segment we normally
- 26:30Speaker 3: save for later in the show, but we're bringing it
- 26:32Speaker 3: to you a little early tonight.
- 26:37Speaker 2: John took the Day.
- 26:42Speaker 3: It's our dope of the day, and today it is
- 26:45Speaker 3: none other than the sweetish goblin Greta Tunberg, who posted
- 26:50Speaker 3: a post on social media decrying the suffering of Palestinian prisoners,
- 26:55Speaker 3: who said, it's not a matter of opinion, it is
- 26:58Speaker 3: a fact of systemic and dehumanization. Humanity cannot be selective.
- 27:04Speaker 3: Justice cannot have borders. Except if you look at one
- 27:07Speaker 3: of the images there on the right side of the post.
- 27:12Speaker 3: Who's that an emaciated Palestinian prisoner. According to Greta Tumberg,
- 27:17Speaker 3: that is actually an Israeli hostage who was released at
- 27:22Speaker 3: the video of this was released in a her mass
- 27:25Speaker 3: propaganda video where he was forced to dig his own grave.
- 27:30Speaker 3: So the only photo of adult starvation in Gaza, and
- 27:36Speaker 3: the only one that the pro Palestine side can actually
- 27:39Speaker 3: go here here, it is all our claims of starvation.
- 27:41Speaker 1: It's right here.
- 27:42Speaker 3: It's actually an Israeli hostage.
- 27:44Speaker 1: Think about that. Think about that.
- 27:47Speaker 3: And now we thought she'd reached extreme levels of stupidity.
- 27:50Speaker 1: This is just next level.
- 27:51Speaker 3: But still no mention of the hostages, even though I
- 27:54Speaker 3: thought justice shouldn't have borders.
- 27:57Speaker 2: Greta, And if she'd spent more time working out her
- 28:01Speaker 2: facts and not working on her Lord far cord head,
- 28:04Speaker 2: she might have worked it out. I mean, I think
- 28:06Speaker 2: it proves. I think it proves, doesn't it that because
- 28:11Speaker 2: she's so young, was set up as the activist and
- 28:15Speaker 2: on on a particular issue, which of course was climate
- 28:18Speaker 2: and as she's gotten older and she's not a kid anymore,
- 28:21Speaker 2: she needs something to do, and she's sort of stuck
- 28:24Speaker 2: in that activist rat that she's just latched onto what
- 28:28Speaker 2: is the latest thing. At the time, it was climate change,
- 28:30Speaker 2: then she latched onto Palestine because it's the latest thing.
- 28:33Speaker 2: She doesn't really care about the issue, She just cares
- 28:36Speaker 2: about the relevance. And so she can't even do basic
- 28:40Speaker 2: fact checking about images in her graphics.
- 28:43Speaker 4: She ever had a job, That's what I'd like to know.
- 28:45Speaker 4: What does she do in her spare time when she's
- 28:47Speaker 4: not out being a serial.
- 28:48Speaker 1: Pest, a serial goblin? Did she she work?
- 28:51Speaker 4: Or she just you know, hops on boats, waves a
- 28:53Speaker 4: flag around, you know, where's a kefe. She's just look,
- 28:56Speaker 4: she's absolutely pathetic. But this was a serious blunder. And
- 29:00Speaker 4: you know, she's fresh from her flotilla flop number two,
- 29:03Speaker 4: which was another disaster. I'm sure there'd be a third
- 29:06Speaker 4: flotilla attempt at some point where she'll claim that she's
- 29:09Speaker 4: been detained and you know that she's been abused and
- 29:12Speaker 4: she was forced to kiss the Israeli flag or whatever.
- 29:14Speaker 4: The help I mean, you just can't make this stuff up.
- 29:17Speaker 1: When it comes to greater.
- 29:18Speaker 4: Seriously, but honestly, this was actually a real, real blunder.
- 29:22Speaker 4: In fact, the sister of that Israeli hostage also wrote
- 29:25Speaker 4: a comment underneath that post to say, you should do
- 29:28Speaker 4: your research before you post these things that you don't understand,
- 29:31Speaker 4: and that would be terribly or just awful for a
- 29:33Speaker 4: family member to see that vision come up again, but
- 29:37Speaker 4: especially by somebody like Greta Thunberg.
- 29:40Speaker 2: Kissing the Israeli Did you say that they made so?
- 29:42Speaker 4: Basically, there was a Swedish activist who was also deported
- 29:47Speaker 4: as well, and they came out claiming that she was
- 29:50Speaker 4: forced to kiss the Israeli flag and that she was
- 29:52Speaker 4: also beaten up by the IDF, which I mean, it's
- 29:56Speaker 4: just it just is so nonsensical.
- 30:00Speaker 1: There's a load of nonsense have been.
- 30:01Speaker 4: You would have seen as she got released two days ago.
- 30:03Speaker 4: She looked bright as a button. She had certainly not
- 30:05Speaker 4: been physically harmed. But that's the kind of nonsense that
- 30:08Speaker 4: they're pedaling.
- 30:09Speaker 2: Got a kiss from Greta Tunberger. I wouldn't even wish
- 30:12Speaker 2: that on the Chinese flame. I want to reach it
- 30:14Speaker 2: on my DOMEBOOKA to be honest, good point speaking of
- 30:19Speaker 2: people you wouldn't wish things upon. It's very hard to
- 30:22Speaker 2: buy a house in Sydney. We know that the median
- 30:25Speaker 2: house price house one point six million dollars in Sydney,
- 30:28Speaker 2: but find the Comparison website has got to off and
- 30:32Speaker 2: crunch some numbers about if you're a single person, how
- 30:36Speaker 2: much money you need and how long you need to
- 30:39Speaker 2: save in order to buy a median house in Sydney
- 30:44Speaker 2: working in certain jobs, and they worked out that if
- 30:47Speaker 2: you're a nurse, a teacher, a vet, a bricklayer and
- 30:51Speaker 2: a bunch of other jobs, it'll take you about fifty
- 30:54Speaker 2: two years if you're a single person to save up
- 30:58Speaker 2: for a twenty percent deposit. This is from the story
- 31:01Speaker 2: today as the data fact, it can take as long
- 31:03Speaker 2: as fifty two years for a single buyer and these
- 31:06Speaker 2: professions to put down a twenty percent deposit on a
- 31:09Speaker 2: Media and Sydney property valued at one point six million dollars.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Social workers, psychologists and plumbers were also in the fifty
- 31:16Speaker 2: two year club, while dentists and engineers could take as
- 31:20Speaker 2: long as forty two years. Now, these numbers based on
- 31:25Speaker 2: the entry level wage. So you would like to think
- 31:27Speaker 2: that you'd get pay rises as you go along, but
- 31:30Speaker 2: it does illustrate a point, even if you know, fifty
- 31:33Speaker 2: two and forty two years maybe a bit extreme. It
- 31:36Speaker 2: raises a serious point that if you are a single person,
- 31:40Speaker 2: try to buy a property in Sydney, unless you are
- 31:43Speaker 2: on an exceptional wage. It's almost impossible because it's hard
- 31:47Speaker 2: enough for two people a married couple on an average
- 31:50Speaker 2: wage each to club the money together to go and
- 31:53Speaker 2: buy a house. How you would ever do it if
- 31:56Speaker 2: you lived on your own eye do not know?
- 31:58Speaker 3: Well, I think it's just another lesson to young people.
- 32:00Speaker 3: Get out there, fall in love and get married, because
- 32:04Speaker 3: in Sydney these days you kind of have to be
- 32:06Speaker 3: to survive financially. But it's true, right like that, if
- 32:09Speaker 3: you are a single person, I don't know how you'll
- 32:12Speaker 3: ever do it, if you're working an average job with
- 32:15Speaker 3: an average wage. And that's a sad reality. And we
- 32:18Speaker 3: need to of course build more houses, but we have
- 32:21Speaker 3: to bring down immigration because clearly there is something fundamentally
- 32:25Speaker 3: wrong with the supply and demand equation in Australia's housing market.
- 32:29Speaker 4: Yeah well, I mean there was a story actually earlier
- 32:31Speaker 4: this week that more women are going after rich men,
- 32:33Speaker 4: so maybe maybe that's what you've got to do. You've
- 32:35Speaker 4: got to find yourself. You know what they call a
- 32:37Speaker 4: sugar daddy.
- 32:38Speaker 1: Isn't that I.
- 32:43Speaker 4: Was addressing both of you to be To be fair, No,
- 32:45Speaker 4: I'm absolutely joking.
- 32:46Speaker 1: That would not be my advice.
- 32:48Speaker 2: But you do what you want.
- 32:51Speaker 4: I'm just saying, you know, look, it is really hard.
- 32:53Speaker 4: And when you think even as even if you are
- 32:55Speaker 4: a single person, rent is so high in Sydney as
- 32:58Speaker 4: it is that you know, a lot of your salary
- 33:01Speaker 4: ends up going towards your.
- 33:03Speaker 1: Rent plus all of your bills.
- 33:04Speaker 4: So I agree for you know this is go find
- 33:07Speaker 4: a husband. If this is not, if this is not
- 33:10Speaker 4: the push you need to get out there and then.
- 33:13Speaker 2: Let me know how youre going. Sugar daddy dot com.
- 33:16Speaker 3: Well, if you can't find a husband, it just contacts
- 33:18Speaker 3: us and we'll happy, happily arrange a marriage for you.
- 33:26Speaker 2: Has found a way to make a couple of extra bucks.
- 33:29Speaker 1: There you go, there you go.
- 33:30Speaker 4: Well, speaking of a couple of extra bucks, let's talk
- 33:33Speaker 4: about electric vehicles.
- 33:34Speaker 1: Yeah, they're very expensive, aren't they.
- 33:36Speaker 4: I don't know what you feel about how you feel
- 33:37Speaker 4: about them, but how do you feel about the concept
- 33:40Speaker 4: of driverless cars look personally, I don't know, but here's
- 33:44Speaker 4: one example that they could be coming to Australia anytime soon,
- 33:49Speaker 4: because a Cadillac sub brand is in the midst of
- 33:52Speaker 4: launching as an Evy only brand in Australia using this
- 33:56Speaker 4: autonomous driving technology. Now, I don't know if you've both seen,
- 34:02Speaker 4: but this is actually big.
- 34:03Speaker 1: In Los Angeles at the moment.
- 34:05Speaker 4: They're using like ride sharing services and they're all driverless.
- 34:09Speaker 1: I don't like it.
- 34:10Speaker 4: What happens if this car breaks down in the middle
- 34:12Speaker 4: of the road. You've got no driver, you don't know
- 34:14Speaker 4: what buttons to push. That's my concern with these vehicles.
- 34:17Speaker 1: I don't like them.
- 34:18Speaker 4: I don't like eb's full stop. I think they're a
- 34:20Speaker 4: complete waste of time. But a driverless car, no thanks,
- 34:22Speaker 4: I want to be in control.
- 34:23Speaker 1: No, I think this is the best thing ever.
- 34:25Speaker 3: Really, I think most driving most car crashes come from
- 34:29Speaker 3: human error, people falling asleep at the wheel, driving under
- 34:32Speaker 3: the influence, being distracted by their phone. You can get
- 34:35Speaker 3: people off the wheel. It's probably safer for everyone else
- 34:38Speaker 3: on the road.
- 34:39Speaker 2: So now we're going to have robot here is going
- 34:41Speaker 2: to cause all the questions, what if the guy who
- 34:44Speaker 2: programs the car doesn't like me, and then he makes
- 34:47Speaker 2: it to it crashes and I don't, well.
- 34:48Speaker 3: Don't get a Chinese driverless car.
- 34:51Speaker 4: One recommendation, malfunctions exactly.
- 34:54Speaker 2: Anything could be hacked. Yeah, I'm not sure.
- 34:56Speaker 3: I'm sure you'd have a manual override. I'm sure. But anyway,
- 35:01Speaker 3: that will be very, very exciting. And it is already,
- 35:03Speaker 3: as you mentioned, Danika being used quite successfully in Los Angeles.
- 35:08Speaker 3: But speaking of California, one of the Democrat nominees to
- 35:12Speaker 3: be the next governor of California, Katie Porter, was caught
- 35:16Speaker 3: in a horrendously awkward moment where she threatened to storm
- 35:20Speaker 3: out of an interview because she was asked about Trump.
- 35:24Speaker 3: We've also asked the other candidates, do you think you
- 35:26Speaker 3: need any of those forty percent of California voters to win?
- 35:29Speaker 1: And you're saying no, you don't.
- 35:30Speaker 2: No, I'm saying I'm going to try to win every
- 35:32Speaker 2: vote i can.
- 35:34Speaker 1: And what I'm saying to you is that, well to
- 35:36Speaker 1: those voters.
- 35:37Speaker 2: Okay, so you I.
- 35:38Speaker 1: Don't want to keep doing this, I'm gonna call it.
- 35:40Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 35:43Speaker 1: You're not gonna do the interview with them, not like this.
- 35:46Speaker 2: I'm not not with seven follow ups to every single
- 35:47Speaker 2: question you ask.
- 35:49Speaker 1: Every other candidate hasn't care.
- 35:51Speaker 2: I don't care.
- 35:53Speaker 1: I just don't care. Nope, I'm gonna call it.
- 35:56Speaker 3: I mean, seriously, she's not exactly likable, but this is
- 36:00Speaker 3: a pattern of behavior because back during COVID times, she
- 36:05Speaker 3: also got into this very awkward interaction half.
- 36:09Speaker 2: A million Californians dying prematurely the air pollution and other problems,
- 36:14Speaker 2: and the state could lose.
- 36:17Speaker 1: You're out of my shot.
- 36:19Speaker 3: I wanted to tell you that that's actually incorrected. It's
- 36:22Speaker 3: not that it's electric vehicles. It's that if we don't
- 36:25Speaker 3: need a commitment pars climate.
- 36:27Speaker 1: Okay, it does.
- 36:28Speaker 2: Okay. You also were in my shot before that.
- 36:32Speaker 3: So that's how she treats journalists and staffers, you know who.
- 36:36Speaker 3: She reminds me of Monique Rant. She is giving teal energy.
- 36:41Speaker 3: It's exuding, even the hair, everything about her.
- 36:44Speaker 1: She should move to k She's so up herself.
- 36:47Speaker 4: I feel she is absolutely loving herself sick. I wonder
- 36:49Speaker 4: if she's got a doctor in her title as well,
- 36:52Speaker 4: doctor teal doctor.
- 36:53Speaker 2: Well, well, when the beach boys saying about you know,
- 36:56Speaker 2: I wish they all could be California girls. I don't
- 36:58Speaker 2: think they after the breaker. We'll show you how the
- 37:02Speaker 2: front pages tomorrow are marking this momentous deal between Israel
- 37:08Speaker 2: and Gazar, and on the front of the Daily Telegraph
- 37:10Speaker 2: a cop speaking out about how bad youth crime is
- 37:13Speaker 2: getting noxious Victoria other places as well. Don't go away Radio.
- 37:24Speaker 2: Let's get into the papers, starting with the tiers of tomorrow.
- 37:26Speaker 3: On the front page, obviously marking the historic deal and
- 37:30Speaker 3: Noble Prize Phase one, Don Trump gets Israel and Hermas
- 37:36Speaker 3: to agree with that iconic photo of Mark Rubio telling
- 37:41Speaker 3: Trump that a deal was imminent. Then in the Australian
- 37:45Speaker 3: Tomorrow another front page with the deal on it, coming
- 37:48Speaker 3: home Hostages to be released after two years as peace
- 37:51Speaker 3: deeal Herald's New Middle East in dawn with happy people
- 37:54Speaker 3: on the front family members of hostages. So you can
- 37:57Speaker 3: just imagine the excitement and the relief that's being felt
- 38:01Speaker 3: by so many people now. But in the Australian in
- 38:04Speaker 3: terms of articles, tomorrow, PM's office went over Chalmers for
- 38:09Speaker 3: super tax advice. Anthony Albanese's office sought a briefing from
- 38:14Speaker 3: Treasury on the government's plan to tax unrealized capital gains
- 38:17Speaker 3: on superannuation accounts. After the policy received a backlash from
- 38:21Speaker 3: stakeholders more than two years after the unlegislated measure was announced,
- 38:26Speaker 3: the Prime Minister's office demanded to know how the criticism
- 38:31Speaker 3: marked by more than twenty thousand petition protests signatures in
- 38:34Speaker 3: the seven weeks following the election, might change the policy.
- 38:38Speaker 3: The revelation came after Treasury revealed last month that the
- 38:42Speaker 3: new tax could be hit with a legal challenge and
- 38:45Speaker 3: the policy considerations around large superannuation balances remain under development
- 38:51Speaker 3: by the government, So that's a development there.
- 38:54Speaker 1: Albo's office went.
- 38:56Speaker 3: Over Charmer's offers to get more information about this.
- 39:00Speaker 1: But it does.
- 39:00Speaker 3: Feel like this is being pushed by the left flank
- 39:03Speaker 3: of the Labor Party of which Albanezi is the head.
- 39:06Speaker 3: Charmers is obviously from the right, and he is pushing
- 39:10Speaker 3: a lot of this crazy economic policy, but it is
- 39:13Speaker 3: so unpopular.
- 39:14Speaker 4: Yeah, and once you start with one thing like this
- 39:17Speaker 4: unrealized gains, you know, then it moves into other different taxes.
- 39:21Speaker 4: And you know they had that economic forum, well it
- 39:24Speaker 4: was you know, basically taxes under the guise of an
- 39:26Speaker 4: economic forum. So once you start you don't stop.
- 39:29Speaker 2: The tension though between the Prime Minister and the treasurer. Right,
- 39:33Speaker 2: it's just so obvious.
- 39:35Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it is very obvious. Okay, let's look at
- 39:38Speaker 1: the Daily Telegraph now, git with it. Sorry, I'm to apologize, okay.
- 39:42Speaker 4: Detainees accused of sick fraud is the article.
- 39:45Speaker 1: There.
- 39:45Speaker 4: A network of alleged criminals, including men in immigration detention
- 39:49Speaker 4: awaiting deportation, is accused of defrauding taxpayers at least eight million.
- 39:54Speaker 1: Dollars by impersonating.
- 39:56Speaker 4: Sick Aussies to steal their Medicare benefits Services Australia has
- 39:59Speaker 4: conferen multiple arreci have been made as part of an
- 40:02Speaker 4: ongoing joint investigation with the AFP into a massive Medicare ripoff,
- 40:06Speaker 4: with work still underweight to determine how many victims have
- 40:09Speaker 4: been impacted. The alleged perpetrators are accused of tricking ossies
- 40:12Speaker 4: into handing over personal information and bank log in details.
- 40:16Speaker 1: Gee, you know, I mean, where do we even begin
- 40:20Speaker 1: with this?
- 40:20Speaker 4: I mean that these men are in immigration detention awaiting deportation.
- 40:25Speaker 4: Why they haven't left the country yet is you know,
- 40:28Speaker 4: us labor? Why they haven't and now they're defrauding Aussies.
- 40:32Speaker 4: I mean, seriously, what the heck's going on under labor?
- 40:35Speaker 2: Nice work if you can get it, isn't it?
- 40:37Speaker 1: You honestly cannot make this stuff up. You genuinely can't.
- 40:40Speaker 3: But it also tells me that there's clearly not enough
- 40:43Speaker 3: for them to be doing in immigration detention. Surely we
- 40:46Speaker 3: can put these people to work. Can they be making stuff?
- 40:50Speaker 3: Can they be got put to work in factories? If
- 40:52Speaker 3: they've got all the time to sit around and defraud
- 40:55Speaker 3: Australians I mean something.
- 40:58Speaker 2: I mean, there's an argument they've shown a bit of
- 40:59Speaker 2: being annuity here and the ability to scam people, So, like,
- 41:02Speaker 2: you know, surely there's something legitimate we could actually get
- 41:06Speaker 2: them done.
- 41:06Speaker 4: Is that what you're saying? Put them into a skills
- 41:08Speaker 4: trade or something like that.
- 41:10Speaker 2: Sales something that's not stupid?
- 41:14Speaker 1: Okay. The other story on the front page kids to Killers.
- 41:17Speaker 4: Children are progressing faster than ever from their first offense
- 41:20Speaker 4: to a world of organized crime gangs.
- 41:21Speaker 1: That's according to one of the state's top cops.
- 41:24Speaker 4: New South Wales Police Assistant Commissioner Scott Cook said the
- 41:27Speaker 4: involvement of children in crime had dramatically changed in the
- 41:29Speaker 4: past five years, where The entry point for a child
- 41:31Speaker 4: to come to the attention of police was once shoplifting or.
- 41:35Speaker 1: Not buying a train ticket.
- 41:36Speaker 4: It's now common a car theft or home invasion. Look,
- 41:41Speaker 4: it goes back to this youth crime crisis that we
- 41:43Speaker 4: were just discussing at the start of the program. If
- 41:46Speaker 4: there aren't enough to terrance, these kids are going to
- 41:48Speaker 4: enter a life of crime because they're going into court,
- 41:50Speaker 4: they're getting a slap on the wrist, and guess what,
- 41:52Speaker 4: they're doing it over and over again. So I really
- 41:55Speaker 4: do think that the justice system has a massive.
- 41:57Speaker 1: Role to play in this.
- 41:58Speaker 2: And it's the gang element that's, you know, the main driver,
- 42:01Speaker 2: I think, because once if the kid is falling through
- 42:04Speaker 2: the cracks and not getting enough attention of home or whatever,
- 42:07Speaker 2: and they're looking for something to sort of fill that void.
- 42:10Speaker 2: And so along comes a gang that of course is
- 42:13Speaker 2: quite happy to take in new members, and they bring
- 42:16Speaker 2: you in and give you a nice, warm hug and say,
- 42:19Speaker 2: come on, little Johnny, we've got a job for you.
- 42:21Speaker 2: You can understand why for a kid that would be alluring.
- 42:24Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think the other element is probably they're
- 42:27Speaker 3: thrill seeking as well, and the police say, you know,
- 42:30Speaker 3: It used to be shoplifting that would be the point
- 42:33Speaker 3: of first contact.
- 42:34Speaker 1: Now it's car theft.
- 42:36Speaker 3: And that just shows if you don't actually take these small,
- 42:39Speaker 3: seemingly petty crimes seriously and give out serious punishments for those,
- 42:44Speaker 3: that won't be enough, and things will escalate and escalate
- 42:48Speaker 3: and escalate to where first time offenders aren't shoplifting their
- 42:52Speaker 3: hijacking cars, and so you have to actually crack down
- 42:56Speaker 3: on everything, not just the serious stuff.
- 42:59Speaker 2: Well that was essential Rudy Giuliani's theory in New York, right,
- 43:02Speaker 2: and it worked. You know, you crack down on the
- 43:04Speaker 2: people graffitiing on trains and you actually fix the entire city.
- 43:09Speaker 2: You've got to start at the beginning. Funnily enough, on
- 43:11Speaker 2: the front of the end T News tomorrow, A good story,
- 43:14Speaker 2: I think this one. Martin Dole appointed as first Alice
- 43:17Speaker 2: Springs based police commissioner, doling out justice. Acting Police Commissioner
- 43:23Speaker 2: Martin Dole has been chosen to head up the territory
- 43:25Speaker 2: Police Force, officially replacing Michael Murphy, and will be the
- 43:29Speaker 2: first to be based in Alice Springs. And it just
- 43:33Speaker 2: seems to make sense to me if that is that,
- 43:35Speaker 2: you know, it is so the crime hot spot of
- 43:39Speaker 2: the Northern Territory. We know the problems they've been having
- 43:42Speaker 2: in the Alice in recent years. Why not send your
- 43:45Speaker 2: police commissioner there to send a message to say we're
- 43:48Speaker 2: actually going to do something.
- 43:49Speaker 4: Look, I think this is a long time coming. Well
- 43:51Speaker 4: done to the Northern Territory.
- 43:53Speaker 2: How good is les been wonderful up there?
- 43:56Speaker 4: I mean, you know, it's all actions for her. It
- 43:58Speaker 4: hasn't just been all talk, its actual legitimate actions. But
- 44:02Speaker 4: something had to happen to the territory. There's businesses still
- 44:04Speaker 4: to this day saying that they've had to that they're
- 44:07Speaker 4: shutting early, they're scared.
- 44:09Speaker 1: Something had to be done.
- 44:10Speaker 4: I mean remember they had to put in multiple curfews
- 44:12Speaker 4: over the last twelve to eighteen months to try and deal.
- 44:15Speaker 1: With the crisis there. So look, I hope that Martin
- 44:18Speaker 1: Doll can make a huge difference.
- 44:19Speaker 3: And the Northern Territory is another perfect example of how
- 44:23Speaker 3: woke progressive politics are actually regressive and have a negative
- 44:29Speaker 3: impact on vulnerable communities. Lifting the grog band, getting rid
- 44:32Speaker 3: of cashless welfare cast those were all left wing labor policies,
- 44:36Speaker 3: all done in the name of inclusivity and progressivism but
- 44:40Speaker 3: backfired and hurt vulnerable people even more just quickly. In
- 44:44Speaker 3: the cans posts tomorrow, midday city watering explained, ooh a
- 44:49Speaker 3: bit of drama. Can's Regional Council has explained the use
- 44:53Speaker 3: of sprinklers to water its gardens in the middle of
- 44:55Speaker 3: the day while enforcing strict rules on residents amid fears
- 44:59Speaker 3: water of water so apply constraints. As council ramped up
- 45:02Speaker 3: its public appeal on households to reduce water usage following
- 45:05Speaker 3: reservoir failures, publicly owned gardens at Shield Street in the
- 45:09Speaker 3: CBD were under sprinkling irrigation about noon on Thursday. Oh
- 45:15Speaker 3: you're going to tell us not to water, well, you
- 45:17Speaker 3: better not be watering either.
- 45:19Speaker 1: Council exactly. I tell you what a lot bit of
- 45:21Speaker 1: drama in the council. This is fantastic.
- 45:24Speaker 2: Honestly, you're like, you're not surprised when you hear a
- 45:26Speaker 2: council does that staff to rules for the but not
- 45:30Speaker 2: for me. After the break, Where in the world have
- 45:32Speaker 2: they had such a good apple season that the cider
- 45:35Speaker 2: is too strong for sell in the pubs and which
- 45:37Speaker 2: Australian politicians sent out thousands of emails congratulating people on
- 45:42Speaker 2: becoming new citizens when in fact they lived here since
- 45:45Speaker 2: the nineteen fifties. It's coming up.
- 45:50Speaker 1: Now.
- 45:51Speaker 2: I don't know about you, but I've set it up
- 45:52Speaker 2: on my email service that when I send an email,
- 45:56Speaker 2: it actually gives me fifteen seconds to undo it. So
- 45:59Speaker 2: if I've had a mistake, yep, yep, I didn't know that,
- 46:02Speaker 2: you can go and look at it. You can do
- 46:03Speaker 2: it on Gmail. I don't know about other services, but
- 46:05Speaker 2: you can undo it. So if you've made a mistake
- 46:07Speaker 2: or so, if you regret what you've written, you can
- 46:09Speaker 2: do something about it. I think there's someone who wishes
- 46:12Speaker 2: they'd had that opportunity.
- 46:13Speaker 3: Oh yes, A liberal MP down in Victoria, Wendy Lovell
- 46:18Speaker 3: sent thousands of emails to local constituents congratulating them on
- 46:23Speaker 3: becoming new citizens. The only problem was she sent it
- 46:27Speaker 3: to people who were born in Australia back.
- 46:30Speaker 1: In the nineteen fifties.
- 46:33Speaker 3: So you can imagine the sheer confusion when you receive
- 46:37Speaker 3: an equal from your local and b congrats on becoming
- 46:39Speaker 3: a citizen, but you were literally born in this country.
- 46:43Speaker 1: Do you awkward?
- 46:44Speaker 4: I mean, that's that is actually quite quite embarrassing. It
- 46:47Speaker 4: is right, Frank.
- 46:48Speaker 1: I mean, I'd be excited if I got that Wendy.
- 46:52Speaker 2: That's so hard cares about me. I mean, I think
- 46:56Speaker 2: this is what Tony Booke wanted to do. Be fun
- 46:58Speaker 2: of the future election. I'll just send emails out. Suddenly
- 47:05Speaker 2: everyone becomes a citizen. And I wonder when they found
- 47:07Speaker 2: out where they became a citizen, whether they were sent
- 47:09Speaker 2: to a gift, maybe a carton of cider or two.
- 47:13Speaker 2: Over in the UK, and you'll know, the Somerset in
- 47:16Speaker 2: particular is one of the areas well known for growing
- 47:19Speaker 2: the apples that are turned into cider. They've had such
- 47:22Speaker 2: a bumper apple season over in England that the apples
- 47:28Speaker 2: had a higher sugar content than normal, which is great,
- 47:31Speaker 2: they're nice apples to eat, but of course the higher
- 47:33Speaker 2: sugar content when you're making cider means that sugar ferments
- 47:37Speaker 2: into alcohol, and so all the brewers in England have
- 47:41Speaker 2: turned out these really high alcohol ciders. And normally they
- 47:45Speaker 2: sell something that sort of between four and six percent alcohol,
- 47:48Speaker 2: but they've been tuning out stuff that's like ten and
- 47:50Speaker 2: a half percent and they can't sell it to the pubs.
- 47:53Speaker 2: The pubs won't take it because they say it's too alcoholic.
- 47:57Speaker 2: I don't know what the issue is. I mean, put
- 47:59Speaker 2: it on a and send it to me, happily drink it.
- 48:02Speaker 2: I continue. This just seems cruel. You've got the nicest
- 48:06Speaker 2: apples ever and they say no, we can't turn it
- 48:09Speaker 2: into cider. And all the sider we've turned it into.
- 48:11Speaker 1: Is no good produce as well.
- 48:13Speaker 2: Why I think, wait, Denik, I think you and I
- 48:16Speaker 2: need to go and fix this problem up. We need
- 48:18Speaker 2: to consume some of the products.
- 48:19Speaker 1: Well, I don't drink cider. Sorry, sorry, Caleb, I don't
- 48:23Speaker 1: drink hot day. Apologies Caleb.
- 48:26Speaker 2: But I guess it's all down to me. I don't
- 48:28Speaker 2: know if you're joining.
- 48:30Speaker 3: I can go for a signer and even that alcoholic
- 48:33Speaker 3: I mean spirits and stuff away.
- 48:35Speaker 2: Well spirits, Yes.
- 48:37Speaker 1: You don't have pie.
- 48:38Speaker 2: It is pretty high for a sight, that's true.
- 48:40Speaker 1: Well, you know who probably doesn't need a cider? This koala?
- 48:43Speaker 4: Because I reckon they got up to mischief. Have a
- 48:46Speaker 4: look at this vision. This koala has walked into an
- 48:49Speaker 4: Ossie pub.
- 48:49Speaker 1: How cute is it?
- 48:50Speaker 2: I think he wants to side, he wants to sider.
- 48:52Speaker 4: Maybe he found his way into the Queenscliff Family Hotel
- 48:55Speaker 4: at King's Scout, King's Cote on Kangaroo Islands is in
- 48:59Speaker 4: South Astra. I had a little walk around, checked out
- 49:02Speaker 4: the local produce. Maybe he checked in on the side
- 49:04Speaker 4: or as well, Caleb. I'm not too sure what he
- 49:08Speaker 4: was after there at the at the pub, but what
- 49:10Speaker 4: a cutie.
- 49:11Speaker 2: Well, you know, because cos are already high all the time,
- 49:13Speaker 2: and all the eucalyptus, yes, cheering away on. So why
- 49:16Speaker 2: not just d just.
- 49:18Speaker 3: Looking for a good time and blame the guy.
- 49:21Speaker 2: Go to Somerset, MA get your hands on some of
- 49:23Speaker 2: the side. Thanks for joining us this week. Up next,
- 49:25Speaker 2: The Rid of Panic Show.
