- 0:00Speaker 1: General, Welcome the Late Place.
- 0:06Speaker 2: Thanks Paul, we won't hold that against you. Well, welcome
- 0:08Speaker 2: to the Late Debate. I'm fran Leach here with Cal
- 0:11Speaker 2: Richards and Joe Hildebrand coming up tonight. Finally, some good
- 0:15Speaker 2: news from jen Z. The sherif of university students in
- 0:18Speaker 2: the US identifying as non binary is collapsing. Have we
- 0:23Speaker 2: reached peak wokeness? And will we see a similar thing
- 0:26Speaker 2: in Australia? In the papers? The Victorian government will weigh
- 0:30Speaker 2: women's safety in their transgender prison strategy. Here's an idea,
- 0:34Speaker 2: maybe just don't put men in women's prisons.
- 0:38Speaker 3: Wow.
- 0:38Speaker 2: Plus parents from London schools have been banned from watching
- 0:42Speaker 2: their kids play sport because of their bad behavior towards
- 0:46Speaker 2: officials and other children. Is this an overreaction? We'll discuss
- 0:51Speaker 2: that later in the hour. Well, two years ago, fifty
- 0:55Speaker 2: four percent of Victorians voted no to the Voice. Jacinta
- 0:59Speaker 2: Allen had ignored the wishes of her state and is
- 1:02Speaker 2: moving ahead with a radical treaty and the legislation is
- 1:07Speaker 2: going through Victorian Parliament as we speak. It's essentially the
- 1:11Speaker 2: Voice on steroids, establishing a parallel parliament based on race
- 1:15Speaker 2: and effectively giving Indigenous Australians two votes, one for the
- 1:19Speaker 2: regular Parliament and one for the Indigenous Parliament. The Victorian
- 1:23Speaker 2: Libs have promised to abolish it in their first one
- 1:26Speaker 2: hundred days if elected. Now, Kel, I do not understand
- 1:31Speaker 2: how after your state votes, know the country votes know you,
- 1:36Speaker 2: then go great, We'll move forward with an even more
- 1:40Speaker 2: radical version of what you all just said no to.
- 1:43Speaker 4: But not understanding is not a response to Decinder Alan
- 1:47Speaker 4: because we don't understand almost anything she does. The real
- 1:50Speaker 4: problem with this is it actually is racism. Let me
- 1:53Speaker 4: read you the Oxford Universe because I'm the word man. Okay,
- 1:57Speaker 4: So the Oxford English Dictionary's definition of rapeism it is
- 2:01Speaker 4: unequal treatment on the basis of membership of a particular
- 2:04Speaker 4: racial group. Now it can't be argued that this is racism.
- 2:08Speaker 4: We've just seen three one hour documentary simp Tony Abbott
- 2:11Speaker 4: in which he's shown that Australia never has had systemic racism.
- 2:15Speaker 4: The only things that happen whenever approved of by government,
- 2:18Speaker 4: whenever government policy, they just happened because of clashes on
- 2:21Speaker 4: the frontier. This is systemic racism. This is just sider
- 2:25Speaker 4: around and deciding to build into the system racist treatment
- 2:29Speaker 4: of people, A division on a racial basis that's horrid.
- 2:33Speaker 4: Everyone hates racism. On what basis does she say it's okay,
- 2:37Speaker 4: I'm being nice by being racist, and don't I'm not
- 2:42Speaker 4: convinced that this actually represents the view of most Aboriginal
- 2:46Speaker 4: people in Victoria's about seventy thousand Aboriginal people in Victoria,
- 2:49Speaker 4: one percent of the population, and I don't think there's
- 2:53Speaker 4: been any survey to discover whether most of them want
- 2:56Speaker 4: to be treated differently from the rest of Victorians. I
- 2:59Speaker 4: think they just be Victorians, and this.
- 3:02Speaker 1: Is just killed being suspicious.
- 3:04Speaker 4: I suspect it's a bunch of inner city radicals and
- 3:07Speaker 4: activists who are pushing this kind of thing. It's beyond
- 3:11Speaker 4: belief that, as you said, after a fifty four percent
- 3:15Speaker 4: novo to the Voice and only forty six percent swing years,
- 3:18Speaker 4: she would say, well, that's all right, I'll do it anyway.
- 3:21Speaker 2: It's just remarkable, Joe, Yeah, it is.
- 3:24Speaker 3: To be honest, I almost want to see this go
- 3:27Speaker 3: ahead because I think it will be such a do
- 3:30Speaker 3: nothing talk fest that fraught with symbolism, fraught with you know,
- 3:35Speaker 3: emotional statements, won't actually address it. I think there'll be
- 3:38Speaker 3: that much fighting and argument over what it does, because
- 3:42Speaker 3: this is what the sort of left does. It just
- 3:44Speaker 3: splinters it factionalizers and argues with itself and then nothing
- 3:47Speaker 3: ever gets done. So I suspect that is what is
- 3:50Speaker 3: going to happen. I suspect it is something that is
- 3:51Speaker 3: dominated by the more inurban left rather than indigenous people
- 3:58Speaker 3: out in the communities. I mean, and it's certainly true that,
- 4:01Speaker 3: you know, horrible things have happened in Australia and we
- 4:03Speaker 3: have to treat our history, you know, in a clear
- 4:07Speaker 3: eyed way and tell people what happened. But it is
- 4:09Speaker 3: equally true, and you know, there has been there have
- 4:11Speaker 3: been racist policies, There's no two ways about that. But
- 4:13Speaker 3: a lot of them were intended to be benign. A
- 4:16Speaker 3: lot of them were racist or sort of patronizing if
- 4:20Speaker 3: you like, or but it was not done. It was
- 4:23Speaker 3: done because they thought they were trying to save Aboriginal
- 4:26Speaker 3: people when in fact they were probably helping to kill them.
- 4:29Speaker 3: And and then there were the horrendous atrocities that occurred
- 4:32Speaker 3: on the frontiers that again you know, were often covered
- 4:36Speaker 3: up because if the perpetrators had been caught, they would
- 4:39Speaker 3: have been hanged and.
- 4:39Speaker 1: If in the case of.
- 4:43Speaker 3: That's right, exactly right, and Arthur Phillip, a lot of
- 4:45Speaker 3: this stuff didn't actually start. This is the other thing
- 4:47Speaker 3: with Australia. This didn't start with Arthur Phillip in seventeen
- 4:51Speaker 3: eighty eight. This is you know, when the first fleet arrived.
- 4:55Speaker 3: That initial period was probably the most peaceful that Indigenous
- 4:59Speaker 3: and non Australians.
- 5:01Speaker 1: Because I wind you've got.
- 5:02Speaker 4: A lot started by saying it won't do anything. The
- 5:04Speaker 4: trouble is in the legislation. It's given enormous powers. It
- 5:08Speaker 4: can decide whether to let people into various landmarks around Victoria.
- 5:12Speaker 4: Can it can decide to change place names. Now this
- 5:17Speaker 4: bothers me a lot to formal organization called SOAP Save
- 5:21Speaker 4: our Australian Placenames. Of the four million place names in Australia,
- 5:25Speaker 4: three million of them are already Indigenous words.
- 5:29Speaker 1: We don't need more.
- 5:30Speaker 3: What I'm talking is that the victorial authorities are doing
- 5:32Speaker 3: that already. I mean Channel ten already calls Melbourne Armoy
- 5:37Speaker 3: slightly before my beloved friend.
- 5:39Speaker 2: But that's how you know that this is all just
- 5:41Speaker 2: about the endless conquest to rewrite and change our culture,
- 5:47Speaker 2: our history to make us constantly ashamed. It's not actually
- 5:50Speaker 2: about improving the lives of Indigenous people, and it won't
- 5:53Speaker 2: do anything to improve their lives other than add a
- 5:56Speaker 2: whole nother layer of bureaucracy. And my concern is if
- 5:59Speaker 2: Victoria goes down this road. We know they are kind
- 6:02Speaker 2: of the avant garde of trendy labor left thought. It's
- 6:05Speaker 2: only a matter of time before the left in other
- 6:08Speaker 2: states starts agitating for a treaty as well. And that's
- 6:10Speaker 2: what really.
- 6:11Speaker 3: I think that there is that. But again, that's kind
- 6:13Speaker 3: of why I want to say, all right, fine, put
- 6:16Speaker 3: this in place ten years later, let's check in and
- 6:19Speaker 3: see if it's actually made any difference to disadvantage. What
- 6:21Speaker 3: will actually help indigenous disadvantage though, Fray, you'll be pleased
- 6:25Speaker 3: to know, is Lydia Thorpe. We need all Lydia thoughts
- 6:28Speaker 3: because she's already done so much, you know, forget all
- 6:30Speaker 3: these inner city Melbourne extreme left indigenous activists. What we
- 6:35Speaker 3: need is Lydia Thorpe. And in a city Melbourne extreme
- 6:38Speaker 3: left indigenous activists anyway, you may have seen over the
- 6:41Speaker 3: week that Lydia Thorpe has declared to I think a
- 6:45Speaker 3: Propostinian rally, because of course, what else where else do
- 6:48Speaker 3: you prosecute indigenous affairs than at a Propalastinian rally. That
- 6:52Speaker 3: she would turn down the Parliament if that's what it
- 6:55Speaker 3: took to just you know, make a point, have a
- 6:57Speaker 3: listen and we.
- 6:58Speaker 1: Will turn up every day.
- 7:01Speaker 3: And if I have to brand down Parliament House to
- 7:04Speaker 3: make a point, I'm not.
- 7:13Speaker 2: I'm really just people.
- 7:16Speaker 3: So yeah, just to recap, you burn down Parliament House,
- 7:19Speaker 3: but not because that will actually make any difference in
- 7:22Speaker 3: and of itself. You burn down Parliament House to make
- 7:25Speaker 3: a point about the suffering of the Palestinian people who
- 7:29Speaker 3: have just unanimously agreed to a peace deal offered by
- 7:33Speaker 3: Donald Trump, so against their own wishes, you burn down
- 7:37Speaker 3: Parliament House just to make the point about the pro
- 7:40Speaker 3: Palestinian people, and that will then improve Indigenous relations in Australia.
- 7:48Speaker 1: How can you deny that line of logic?
- 7:50Speaker 3: Frayer makes perfect sense anyway, Susan Lee has now stood up. Yeah,
- 7:54Speaker 3: she stood up. Who says she's not a strong leader? Freyer?
- 7:58Speaker 3: Susan Leers stood up. Whether it's leol lie, even you
- 8:01Speaker 3: guys can't make up your minds about this, and she
- 8:03Speaker 3: said there needs to be action against Lydia Thorpe and
- 8:07Speaker 3: her incendiary behavior. So there you go. Looks like that's
- 8:12Speaker 3: put Andrew Hasty back in his box. Holday, Enterprice. You
- 8:16Speaker 3: didn't say that coming, did ya? Now he said action
- 8:19Speaker 3: must be taken against Lydia. Thought.
- 8:21Speaker 2: I think Susan is totally making the right call here
- 8:23Speaker 2: to stand up and say this is not appropriate to
- 8:26Speaker 2: have an Australian elected member of Parliament as senator saying
- 8:31Speaker 2: she's going to go down and burn the parliament down.
- 8:34Speaker 2: I mean, it's ironic. If you hate the parliament that much,
- 8:37Speaker 2: why are you in there taking two hundred and fifty
- 8:40Speaker 2: thousand dollars of taxpayer money every year getting paid to
- 8:44Speaker 2: sit in there. But I think there is a really
- 8:46Speaker 2: serious point underlying that, and that it's clear that she
- 8:50Speaker 2: has brought into a lot of Marxist ideology, and in
- 8:54Speaker 2: Marxism they actually think that the state is a tool
- 8:57Speaker 2: of oppression and that the government this is the communist state,
- 9:00Speaker 2: and then it's magically all great, and the state is
- 9:04Speaker 2: a tool for oppression, and therefore in order to actually
- 9:08Speaker 2: overthrow the oppressors, you need to overthrow the state. It's revolutionary,
- 9:13Speaker 2: it's anti democratic, and it's extremely dangerous. And to see
- 9:18Speaker 2: that kind of thought slowly starting to seep into the
- 9:22Speaker 2: mainstream of Australian politics is very scary.
- 9:27Speaker 1: Yeah, it is. And the question is what can be
- 9:29Speaker 1: done about her.
- 9:29Speaker 4: I'm not sure whether under parliamentary rule she can be
- 9:32Speaker 4: disciplined in any way, although I've got to acknowledge Tim Blair,
- 9:35Speaker 4: who is a great Australian journalist, and Tim said there
- 9:38Speaker 4: is a Melbourne strip club called Maxine's Gentleman's Club, which
- 9:42Speaker 4: he was thrown out of from bad behavior, and which
- 9:45Speaker 4: is she has been banned from. So Maxine's Strip Club
- 9:48Speaker 4: has banned her, but the Parliament hasn't banned it. So
- 9:50Speaker 4: she can't walk into the strip club, but she can
- 9:52Speaker 4: walk into the Parliament.
- 9:53Speaker 1: There is something wrong there. What is wrong with this picture?
- 9:56Speaker 4: By the way, when she said she wanted to burn
- 9:58Speaker 4: down Parliament, that she'd done something really.
- 10:01Speaker 1: Stupid, she said it was a figure of speech. I
- 10:05Speaker 1: think there's a wonderful this is the thing.
- 10:08Speaker 3: Like this is the new Parliament house. Right, She's already
- 10:11Speaker 3: supported the burning down of the old one. She had
- 10:14Speaker 3: her mates out there burning it down and she celebrated that,
- 10:17Speaker 3: and then the new one. We have to replace the
- 10:19Speaker 3: old one that she wanted to burn down. Now she
- 10:21Speaker 3: wants to burn that one down too. We can't afford
- 10:24Speaker 3: to build another one. But running out of parliament houses.
- 10:26Speaker 4: I can I just point out a lot of language
- 10:29Speaker 4: of public debate is now becoming very violent in England.
- 10:33Speaker 1: It's happened.
- 10:33Speaker 4: There is a student by the name of Samuel Williams.
- 10:35Speaker 4: He's at Oxford and he was at a pro Palestinian
- 10:38Speaker 4: rally and he started a chat of put Zios which
- 10:42Speaker 4: is his abbreviation of Zionists into the ground.
- 10:44Speaker 1: Have a look at this, Garza, Garza, make us proud.
- 10:49Speaker 3: Put the Zios in the ground.
- 10:51Speaker 2: Garza Garzon makers dove.
- 10:56Speaker 5: Crowd.
- 10:58Speaker 4: Now what does in the ground mean? It can I
- 11:00Speaker 4: do mean anything except death. So there is Israel, a
- 11:04Speaker 4: population of nine million people, seven million of them are Jewish.
- 11:08Speaker 4: I presume they're the people he classifies as being Zionists,
- 11:10Speaker 4: and he would like them all.
- 11:11Speaker 1: To be dead and buried.
- 11:14Speaker 4: What is wrong with a university student who thinks calling
- 11:17Speaker 4: for the death of seven million people is somehow a real,
- 11:21Speaker 4: really useful and productive thing to do?
- 11:23Speaker 3: More than seven million people, because any Jew or any
- 11:26Speaker 3: person who believes in the state of Israel's body.
- 11:28Speaker 1: Yes, so more than seven million.
- 11:29Speaker 2: You're right, Well, that's the question, right, So the majority
- 11:32Speaker 2: of Jewish people would consider themselves Zionists, and even more
- 11:36Speaker 2: than that would support the state of Israel. And we
- 11:38Speaker 2: know that Hamas has global ambitions. They don't just want
- 11:42Speaker 2: to conquer Israel, they want to export their ideology of
- 11:45Speaker 2: hatred around the world. And so what does this chant
- 11:49Speaker 2: actually mean? And I totally understand how Jewish people, particularly
- 11:54Speaker 2: Jewish people who are on university campuses, surrounded by people
- 11:58Speaker 2: like that that are openly inciting violence, would feel genuinely scared.
- 12:03Speaker 2: And we often cover on this show all the crazy
- 12:06Speaker 2: things people in the UK get arrested for posting on Facebook.
- 12:10Speaker 2: Last night we talked about a reform counselor who got
- 12:12Speaker 2: referred to police for saying she was born and bred here.
- 12:15Speaker 2: I want to know what's going to happen to this
- 12:17Speaker 2: guy who is clearly inciting violence? Will there be any
- 12:21Speaker 2: action or will reform counselors who postsuff on Facebook suffer
- 12:26Speaker 2: more consequences than him?
- 12:27Speaker 3: And also, what is happening to the most elitist universities
- 12:31Speaker 3: in the world attended by the richest, most overprivileged, little
- 12:35Speaker 3: snot nosed brats that are always the most radical. And
- 12:39Speaker 3: I think when we get to the papers, we'll see
- 12:41Speaker 3: that some of the smaller universities are joining a growing
- 12:43Speaker 3: group of sort of anti wote unis. But you know,
- 12:45Speaker 3: you look at Harvard in the US, it was one
- 12:47Speaker 3: of the worst for anti Semitic activity, and I think
- 12:50Speaker 3: their DC actually got in a bit of trouble and.
- 12:54Speaker 2: Having sign over it over it.
- 12:56Speaker 3: Then you have you know, obviously Oxford, and we've seen
- 12:59Speaker 3: that video there air from that very well. I wonder
- 13:03Speaker 3: if his you know, is he reading in history or philosophy.
- 13:06Speaker 2: He's reading in politics, philosophy and economic.
- 13:10Speaker 3: And see such a well spoken young man as I
- 13:13Speaker 3: wonder if there's little footnotes after the word ground. And
- 13:17Speaker 3: then of course you got here a and you I
- 13:19Speaker 3: think it's our top former university. And you had someone
- 13:21Speaker 3: take a student reps taken upon themselves to make some
- 13:24Speaker 3: interesting comments on ABC Radio for which they had to
- 13:27Speaker 3: be Sydney University.
- 13:28Speaker 1: That woman who berated Jewish.
- 13:30Speaker 3: Then just last week on a Jewish religious holiday where
- 13:34Speaker 3: a woman just came up and starts screaming at them.
- 13:37Speaker 3: So again I think it speaks volumes as to where
- 13:40Speaker 3: the new kind of inner upper middle class in a
- 13:43Speaker 3: city upper middle class left sits, which is you absolute
- 13:47Speaker 3: numpties who read your little Marxist manufacturers marks. By the way,
- 13:49Speaker 3: also upper middle class because factories.
- 13:52Speaker 4: Doesn't it make you long for the day when the
- 13:54Speaker 4: most outrageous thing that happened at Oxford was students getting
- 13:57Speaker 4: drunk on boat race night, that that was.
- 14:00Speaker 3: Probaby dotop bell towers and stuff like that. Yes, but again,
- 14:03Speaker 3: just to disconnect between what normal people, working class people,
- 14:07Speaker 3: more battler universities if you like where they're situated, and
- 14:10Speaker 3: this really nasty sort of radicalized rich snot knows lefty.
- 14:14Speaker 2: Yeah, And to think that Oxford was originally started as
- 14:17Speaker 2: a place to train priests and monks for religious purposes
- 14:22Speaker 2: and now look at the kind of students it's producing.
- 14:24Speaker 4: Well, I wonder to what extent the loss of the
- 14:27Speaker 4: Judeo foundations of Western civilization are playing out here. You
- 14:31Speaker 4: get rid of those foundations and those values, and suddenly
- 14:34Speaker 4: people can what other people did. I mean, Jesus said
- 14:36Speaker 4: love your enemies. Well, that kind of idea which was
- 14:39Speaker 4: built into the foundations of our civilization no longer exists
- 14:43Speaker 4: for this kid. He just thinks anyone I don't like
- 14:46Speaker 4: should be killed.
- 14:47Speaker 2: And it was built into the foundations of the universities.
- 14:50Speaker 2: A lot of them were started to teach theology to
- 14:52Speaker 2: cultivate Christian citizens, and without that, they've basically just become
- 14:57Speaker 2: factories to produce radical Marxists. Is a travesty for our civilization.
- 15:02Speaker 3: Well started with reformation or your fault?
- 15:04Speaker 2: Not sure about that one. But moving on now and
- 15:06Speaker 2: on this same theme of Hamas and Gaza. Zero point
- 15:11Speaker 2: thirteen of the Gaza Peace Plan, it says that her
- 15:13Speaker 2: Maas must disarm and disband. But today there were summary
- 15:20Speaker 2: executions conducted by Hamas in Gaza. Now I will warn
- 15:23Speaker 2: you the imagery we are about to show you is
- 15:26Speaker 2: highly distressing. So in an effort to reassert control over
- 15:31Speaker 2: the strip, presumably har Maas has been executing people on mass,
- 15:36Speaker 2: around fifty of them in the last twenty four hours alone.
- 15:40Speaker 2: Kel When you see scenes like that, they've said they're
- 15:45Speaker 2: going to disarm. They know according to the Peace Plan
- 15:48Speaker 2: there's no role for them in government. It makes you
- 15:52Speaker 2: wonder how realistic is this piece actually going to be I.
- 15:56Speaker 4: Could see that a lot of people are saying that
- 15:58Speaker 4: the peace plan is now trembling around the edges. But
- 16:01Speaker 4: it's very early days. Trump is convinced something is going
- 16:05Speaker 4: to happen. In fact, Trump talked about that. He said
- 16:07Speaker 4: Hamas had promised to disarm. Have a look at this.
- 16:16Speaker 1: We have.
- 16:18Speaker 5: Told them we want disarm, and they're will disarmed.
- 16:22Speaker 1: And if they don't disarmed, we will disarm them.
- 16:24Speaker 5: And it'll happen quickly and perhaps violently, but they will disarmed.
- 16:29Speaker 1: Do you understand me.
- 16:31Speaker 4: So if he's so confident they will be disarmed, either
- 16:35Speaker 4: voluntarily or as he said, to use his word, violently,
- 16:38Speaker 4: what is going to happen? I mean, it's the journalistic cliche.
- 16:41Speaker 4: I we'll have to wait and see, but we will.
- 16:43Speaker 1: I mean.
- 16:44Speaker 4: The possibilities are that he might authorize Benjamin Netanyaho to
- 16:47Speaker 4: send the IDF back in, or perhaps he will make
- 16:50Speaker 4: a major attempt to get his ISF forced together quickly.
- 16:55Speaker 4: That's the International Stabilization Force now. So far, Indonesia has
- 16:59Speaker 4: promised we read, twenty thousand fighting men to go into
- 17:02Speaker 4: that ISF force. He needs more than that. There's a
- 17:06Speaker 4: suggestion Turkey might supply. Some European countries should supply some.
- 17:10Speaker 4: They won't be Americans, Trump says, but he has to
- 17:13Speaker 4: get his ISF force together really quickly and mobilize really fast.
- 17:18Speaker 1: It's really it's difficult.
- 17:19Speaker 4: For us sitting here to imagine how that disarmament could happen,
- 17:23Speaker 4: because the practical problem looks huge, doesn't it.
- 17:26Speaker 2: And the terror infrastructure. I think that's the thing. People
- 17:29Speaker 2: also don't understand when Trump says we need to get
- 17:32Speaker 2: rid of Hamas's infrastructure. Sure, that's great, but their tunnel
- 17:36Speaker 2: system is larger than the London underground system, and so
- 17:40Speaker 2: someone's got to go in there, blow them all up,
- 17:42Speaker 2: or flood them or do something. And I guess it's good.
- 17:44Speaker 2: Now the hostages aren't in there, the IDF for whoever
- 17:48Speaker 2: it is that goes in can be more aggressive and
- 17:51Speaker 2: it will probably be quicker for them. But still it
- 17:54Speaker 2: is a monumental task in front of them.
- 17:57Speaker 3: Yeah, it is huge. I mean. The problem is that
- 17:59Speaker 3: the people who who Trump and the Israel and the
- 18:02Speaker 3: West have access to are making these guarantees, but they
- 18:06Speaker 3: no longer clearly actually speak on behalf of the mass
- 18:09Speaker 3: fighters on the ground. So the political leadership of Hamas
- 18:11Speaker 3: that's in Qatar and at the negotiating table has either
- 18:15Speaker 3: lost contact with or control over elements of the MASS
- 18:20Speaker 3: fighters on the ground. And that was warned about, you know,
- 18:24Speaker 3: days and weeks ago, and now we've sort of seen
- 18:26Speaker 3: proof of that. And also you've got these like a
- 18:29Speaker 3: mass doesn't exist in a vacuum in Gaza either. So
- 18:31Speaker 3: you've got all these other clan groups basically you know,
- 18:35Speaker 3: big criminal or not. They all say they're innocent, but
- 18:38Speaker 3: big you know, clan networks, some of which are just
- 18:42Speaker 3: sort of like organized crime. There's one big, big dude
- 18:45Speaker 3: who they say is a drug a drug lord. He
- 18:48Speaker 3: says he's not. Of course, he would say that he
- 18:51Speaker 3: was the one that was initially thought that her Mass
- 18:54Speaker 3: was trying to rub out here. And even Trump himself
- 18:56Speaker 3: has said, look, these seven guys who they killed, they're
- 18:59Speaker 3: pretty bad guy. They're pretty bad on Braise as well.
- 19:02Speaker 3: So what I think we're seeing there is a sort
- 19:06Speaker 3: of gang a power vacuum, and nature abhors a vacuum
- 19:10Speaker 3: in which different competing gangs and crime groups and terror
- 19:14Speaker 3: groups and political groups in the Mass are vying for
- 19:17Speaker 3: control to fill that vacuum. And of course as you know,
- 19:21Speaker 3: that vacuum needs to be filled by the isf otherwise
- 19:25Speaker 3: it will go to someone like a mass or even
- 19:27Speaker 3: worse like Candace Owens, for example, who has just been rebanned.
- 19:32Speaker 3: The High Court has doubled down on a decision by
- 19:36Speaker 3: Immigration Minister and Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke to deny
- 19:40Speaker 3: Candace Owens, who was obviously a fairly controversial public figure
- 19:45Speaker 3: in America, a visa for an upcoming speaking to us.
- 19:48Speaker 3: She appealed that decision by the Minister to the High Court,
- 19:52Speaker 3: but the High Court has said to quote family feud
- 19:57Speaker 3: and they have supported them's decision, and so she has
- 20:02Speaker 3: been banned for coming. Now this is something I'm very
- 20:04Speaker 3: much all of free speech and everything. This is someone
- 20:07Speaker 3: who has spread some pretty crazy kind of anti Jewish
- 20:11Speaker 3: conspiracy theories, the sort of things that fuel pograms, sort
- 20:14Speaker 3: of things that Nazis would cling to to justify their
- 20:18Speaker 3: theories of an international Jewish conspiracy. Freyer free speech or
- 20:23Speaker 3: censorship or anti Semitism stamped out. I mean, we have
- 20:26Speaker 3: people keep saying, you know, don't allow this to happen,
- 20:29Speaker 3: the government's not doing enough, and then when it does
- 20:31Speaker 3: something like this, they say no what about free speech.
- 20:33Speaker 2: Well, obviously I totally disagree with her views on Israel
- 20:38Speaker 2: and a lot of the things she said about the Holocaust.
- 20:41Speaker 2: Here is one example of just the kind of blatant
- 20:44Speaker 2: lies that she often feels free to express.
- 20:48Speaker 6: On innocent people and es, come on, that's the difference
- 20:53Speaker 6: the experimented on twins. I mean, some of the stories,
- 20:55Speaker 6: by the way, sound completely absurd. Really, the idea they
- 20:58Speaker 6: just like cut a human up and seldom back together.
- 21:01Speaker 6: Why would you do that, literally, even if you're the
- 21:03Speaker 6: most evil person in the world. That's a tremendous waste
- 21:05Speaker 6: of time and supplies. Just slice a person in half
- 21:08Speaker 6: and sew them together. That just sounds like bizarre propaganda.
- 21:12Speaker 2: So she's cast out on Mengela's twin experiments. She has
- 21:17Speaker 2: minimized the Holocaust and questioned it. So my problem here
- 21:22Speaker 2: cale Obviously, I'm a very passionate advocate against anti Semitism.
- 21:26Speaker 2: I'm very supportive of Israel. My own grandmother was a
- 21:30Speaker 2: German Jew who had to flee during the Nazi reign.
- 21:35Speaker 2: But my problem here is that if you start banning
- 21:38Speaker 2: these views, they almost become like a forbidden fruit. People think, oh, well,
- 21:43Speaker 2: why can't I question this, Why can't we have a
- 21:47Speaker 2: discussion about the icula? What are they trying to hide?
- 21:51Speaker 2: What lobby groups are they listening to? And it almost
- 21:55Speaker 2: perpetuates the idea that there must be some sort of
- 21:58Speaker 2: conspiracy behind this. And so I would much rather when
- 22:02Speaker 2: there's an idea that I vehemently disagree with and find repulsive,
- 22:06Speaker 2: bring it into the light, have the discussion in the open,
- 22:10Speaker 2: have the debate, and then debunk it. I'm very concerned
- 22:14Speaker 2: about the slippery slope we're going down.
- 22:16Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I understand that, and it makes a lot
- 22:18Speaker 4: of sense to me. And you've got to understand this
- 22:21Speaker 4: woman doesn't have a huge amount of authority. I mean,
- 22:25Speaker 4: this is the woman who said that the wife of
- 22:26Speaker 4: Emmanuel Macron, the President of France, Bridget Macon, is a man.
- 22:33Speaker 4: She's actually been pursued in court over that, and she
- 22:36Speaker 4: wants a Bridget Macron to do a test so to
- 22:40Speaker 4: prove that she's a woman not a man. So I
- 22:43Speaker 4: question how seriously she's been taken. She says outrageous things.
- 22:47Speaker 4: I think anyone who denies the Holocaust or says anything
- 22:49Speaker 4: Semitic is inhuman. But I really I like you I
- 22:55Speaker 4: worry about what happens to free speech. Free speech. One
- 22:58Speaker 4: of the things that Brander said when he was in
- 23:02Speaker 4: the centate was free speech means allowing your enemies to
- 23:06Speaker 4: say horrible things.
- 23:08Speaker 1: And that's part.
- 23:09Speaker 4: It means allowing people to say weird things. I mean,
- 23:12Speaker 4: we've got people are to say very weird things. I
- 23:14Speaker 4: mean someone might say Clementine Ford says really weird things,
- 23:17Speaker 4: but she's allowed to say them free speech. I used
- 23:19Speaker 4: to work with a bloke on talkback radio who believed
- 23:22Speaker 4: all of these kinds of conspiracies, including a secret Jewish
- 23:25Speaker 4: caval and he said really strange things and he got
- 23:29Speaker 4: reasonable ratings. But I don't think anyone took him seriously,
- 23:32Speaker 4: which means it's not it's not as though they're being persuasive.
- 23:36Speaker 4: I think for many people, what do you think?
- 23:39Speaker 3: I think? I think sometimes these things do have to
- 23:42Speaker 3: be exposed to light. And Candis Ollans I think has
- 23:44Speaker 3: suffered sort of catastrophic reputational damage since she's said these things.
- 23:48Speaker 3: But no one's actually stopping her from saying any of
- 23:50Speaker 3: this stuff, just as no one's stopping you know.
- 23:53Speaker 1: No, no Burke is stopping her. He's stopping her coming.
- 23:55Speaker 3: He stopping out from entering the country. We decide who
- 23:58Speaker 3: comes to our country in the circums answers in which
- 24:00Speaker 3: they come call. That was tow you. So I think
- 24:03Speaker 3: if you're going to if you're going to say to people, know,
- 24:06Speaker 3: even though you're fleeing for your life, we've got no
- 24:09Speaker 3: room and you're not a benefit to our country. So
- 24:11Speaker 3: we're going to say no. You can say to someone well,
- 24:14Speaker 3: you know, you can say whatever you want on your
- 24:16Speaker 3: YouTube channel or your podcast, but we don't want you
- 24:19Speaker 3: to come here and do a speaking to it at
- 24:20Speaker 3: a time when we've already got massive anti Semitic attacks
- 24:24Speaker 3: in Jewish But this.
- 24:25Speaker 2: But Tony Burke has also canceled the visa of someone
- 24:28Speaker 2: like Killel Fuld, who was and he's an Israeli tech
- 24:31Speaker 2: entrepreneur who said some you know, hardcore things about Gaza,
- 24:36Speaker 2: but keep in mind his brother was murdered by Palestinian terrorists.
- 24:39Speaker 3: I think that's very different.
- 24:40Speaker 2: I think, but I just the manipulation of the visa
- 24:44Speaker 2: system to reject people that we don't like.
- 24:46Speaker 3: We rejected Kanye West, like you can't say, oh no,
- 24:49Speaker 3: Kanye West can't come in because he said all this
- 24:51Speaker 3: crazy stuff because he's obviously just suffering a massive ongoing
- 24:55Speaker 3: mental breath, and.
- 24:55Speaker 2: Hate preachers have come in, who hate preachers people from
- 25:00Speaker 2: Gaza on tourist visas.
- 25:02Speaker 3: I think they stopped They stopped her from coming. There
- 25:03Speaker 3: was the crazy guards and women because someone their entire family.
- 25:09Speaker 1: She was stopped as well the patterners.
- 25:11Speaker 4: Tony Burke is saying, if someone is showing things that
- 25:14Speaker 4: bother me, they can't come.
- 25:16Speaker 3: It's just when you've got we've got the Jewish community
- 25:19Speaker 3: living in absolute terror of their lives, getting their synagogue's
- 25:22Speaker 3: fire bomb, getting graffiti, you've got a run like using
- 25:26Speaker 3: third party.
- 25:27Speaker 1: Is not serious enough to really add to that.
- 25:29Speaker 2: I get that, but I just my worry is that
- 25:31Speaker 2: banning her visa. You've already seen this on social media.
- 25:34Speaker 2: I think it will actually make anti Semitism worse because
- 25:37Speaker 2: people will go, well, why are you banning her?
- 25:39Speaker 1: Okay, two to one, we've won.
- 25:42Speaker 2: You. Let's move on to Charlie Kirk.
- 25:44Speaker 3: Now, okay, let's move on to Charlie Kirk. I'll double down.
- 25:47Speaker 3: Donald Trump has posthumously awarded Charlie Kirk the highest civilian
- 25:52Speaker 3: honor that a US president can bestow, and that is
- 25:55Speaker 3: the US Presidential Medal of Freedom. Here is the momster
- 26:00Speaker 3: explaining why he's doing it.
- 26:03Speaker 5: He was assassinated in the prime of his life for
- 26:06Speaker 5: boldly speaking the truth, for living his faith and relentlessly
- 26:11Speaker 5: fighting for a better and stronger America. Loved this country
- 26:15Speaker 5: and that's why this afternoon, it's my privilege to posthumously
- 26:20Speaker 5: award Charles James Kirk R. Nation's highest civilian honor, the
- 26:25Speaker 5: Presidential Medal of Freedom.
- 26:28Speaker 7: Thank you.
- 26:31Speaker 3: There you got obviously a huge amount of support for
- 26:34Speaker 3: people in the US, obviously conservative and adherents of free spaces.
- 26:38Speaker 3: Here is Charlie Kirk's widow, Erica and mother of course
- 26:43Speaker 3: two young kids, accepting the honor.
- 26:46Speaker 7: Charlie always said, the next generation will decide whether freedom
- 26:49Speaker 7: endoors and because of you, I know that freedom will endure.
- 26:55Speaker 1: It will, And.
- 26:57Speaker 7: Today we're gathered not only to celebrate Charlie's birthday, but
- 27:03Speaker 7: to honor a truth that he gave his entire life
- 27:06Speaker 7: to defend. And that's freedom.
- 27:09Speaker 3: And of course Charlie Kirk's birthday is today, and that
- 27:12Speaker 3: is why Trump is making it a national day of remembrance.
- 27:16Speaker 3: Have a listen to that.
- 27:19Speaker 5: I remember Charlie the patio. He could sit there all
- 27:23Speaker 5: night long listening.
- 27:25Speaker 3: To this, which is very nice, of course, because you're
- 27:31Speaker 3: not commemorating or marking the day that someone killed him.
- 27:35Speaker 3: You're marking the day that he was born and came
- 27:37Speaker 3: into the world. Like Martin Luther King or everyone else
- 27:41Speaker 3: seems to get asassinated America. Quite frankly, No.
- 27:43Speaker 2: It's beautiful and such moving scenes there at the White House,
- 27:47Speaker 2: And I think Erica Kirk has just impressed me so
- 27:50Speaker 2: much in how she has handled this. I mean, she's
- 27:53Speaker 2: a mother of two young children. She has experienced this
- 27:57Speaker 2: tremendous grief, but she's carried herself with such grace and composure,
- 28:03Speaker 2: always striking the right tone between honoring his memory but
- 28:07Speaker 2: also saying the fight isn't over, we are going to
- 28:10Speaker 2: press on. So when I see her like that and
- 28:13Speaker 2: she's taken over as head of Turning Point USA, it
- 28:16Speaker 2: does give me a lot of hope.
- 28:18Speaker 4: And the thing that I find really remarkable is the
- 28:20Speaker 4: impact that Charlie Kirk is having. Now, many years ago
- 28:25Speaker 4: people used to say the blood of the martyrs is
- 28:27Speaker 4: the seed of the church, because martyrs can be more
- 28:30Speaker 4: powerful after their death than during their life.
- 28:33Speaker 1: Now, I would think more.
- 28:34Speaker 4: People around the world know Charlie Kirk's name now than
- 28:38Speaker 4: knew it during his lifetime. Even though he was hugely
- 28:41Speaker 4: famous and popular in America, people around the world didn't
- 28:43Speaker 4: know him so much. Is now having an impact globally.
- 28:47Speaker 4: I think it's remarkable. I think something really special is happening.
- 28:51Speaker 4: He's being seen as a martyr. And we had democrats,
- 28:56Speaker 4: American democrats, saying absurd things about him, about racist and
- 29:00Speaker 4: he was homophobic, which he was not because every time
- 29:03Speaker 4: we look at the videos of him debating with kids
- 29:05Speaker 4: on campus, he was courteous.
- 29:07Speaker 1: He listened to people.
- 29:08Speaker 4: Who disagreed with him, he drew them out, he responded
- 29:13Speaker 4: to them nicely, he used a bit of humor. Everything
- 29:17Speaker 4: they said about him that was evil and we just
- 29:19Speaker 4: wasn't true.
- 29:20Speaker 1: We saw that.
- 29:21Speaker 4: We've now seen the videos of how Charlie Kirk functioned.
- 29:23Speaker 4: We know those lies are not true, and somehow or other,
- 29:27Speaker 4: he's having an astonishing I mean, Joe, would you agree
- 29:30Speaker 4: that this is an impact that it would have been
- 29:32Speaker 4: impossible to predict?
- 29:33Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so, Although I think it's probably an
- 29:36Speaker 3: impact that has just galvanized both the left and the right.
- 29:40Speaker 3: So I think it's made the right feel even more
- 29:43Speaker 3: under attack and even more determined to push harder. And
- 29:47Speaker 3: I think it's made the left. I don't think it's
- 29:49Speaker 3: been some illuminating for the activist left, but hopefully for
- 29:54Speaker 3: those in the center, it has just woken people up
- 29:57Speaker 3: to just how violent both sides.
- 30:00Speaker 1: Well.
- 30:01Speaker 2: I think it has woken up a lot of the
- 30:03Speaker 2: kind of classical liberals over in the US, the CNN
- 30:07Speaker 2: types who sort of thought, you know, I'm going to
- 30:09Speaker 2: be liberal or just get along, this will be fine.
- 30:12Speaker 2: And I think they've realized that. A lot of the left,
- 30:14Speaker 2: particularly the reaction to Charlie Kirk's assassination and the celebration,
- 30:19Speaker 2: I think they're now realizing, Wow, a lot of the
- 30:21Speaker 2: left has actually been hijacked by psychotic.
- 30:24Speaker 4: Marxist and the level of violence is increasing. It's happening
- 30:28Speaker 4: in America and even in Britain. There's been a threat
- 30:31Speaker 4: on the life of Nigel Farage by a man named
- 30:33Speaker 4: fires Khan, who is an illegal Afghan migrant.
- 30:37Speaker 1: Here is what he posted.
- 30:39Speaker 5: You do not know me are gonna comment to England?
- 30:43Speaker 3: I gonna you know they're not a.
- 30:49Speaker 1: Pathar now he posted that TikTok video.
- 30:53Speaker 4: He's going to be found guilty of making your death threat,
- 30:57Speaker 4: but he's going to be free and on the streets
- 30:58Speaker 4: again in eighteen months. London Southolk Crown Court sentence him
- 31:03Speaker 4: to five years in jile, but with time off, he's
- 31:06Speaker 4: going to be at eighteen months time and it seems
- 31:08Speaker 4: outrageously short throw it does.
- 31:10Speaker 2: So what happened was Nigel Farage was making a video
- 31:13Speaker 2: about illegal migrant crossings and in that video he played
- 31:17Speaker 2: a video of this man fire As Khan, who was
- 31:20Speaker 2: documenting his journey trying to cross the English Channel as
- 31:24Speaker 2: an illegal migrant, and said, hey, this is the kind
- 31:27Speaker 2: of person trying to come in. Someone with an AK
- 31:29Speaker 2: forty seven tattooed on their face. Probably not the kind
- 31:33Speaker 2: of person we want in the UK. Fires Khan then
- 31:36Speaker 2: responded with that deta thrash and then now he's been detained.
- 31:40Speaker 2: But Nigel Farage made a great point. This is just
- 31:43Speaker 2: one example. How many more of these kinds of people
- 31:47Speaker 2: crossing have gone undetected Here he was speaking outside the court.
- 31:52Speaker 3: It makes me.
- 31:53Speaker 8: Wonder how many other madapassas are there now in this
- 31:57Speaker 8: country or.
- 31:58Speaker 1: Will there be.
- 31:59Speaker 8: As the boat to continue to cross the channel. So
- 32:02Speaker 8: I'm please with a judgment, but deeply, deeply concerned that
- 32:06Speaker 8: this guy will be out three in eighteen months.
- 32:10Speaker 2: Nigel Farage only found the death threat because apparently someone
- 32:13Speaker 2: sent it to him on TikTok. I mean, it wasn't
- 32:16Speaker 2: even the police going, hey, this guy's coming for you.
- 32:19Speaker 3: Well, they're too busy locking up reform counselors saying they
- 32:22Speaker 3: were born and you. Yeah, I mean obviously the whole
- 32:25Speaker 3: thing is just absolutely ridiculous and concerned. I mean, firstly,
- 32:30Speaker 3: the idea, I mean, how stupid would you have to
- 32:33Speaker 3: be to actually make a video of you illegally trying
- 32:36Speaker 3: to enter a country so you can get asylum there, Like,
- 32:39Speaker 3: if you really want to sign I think you're just
- 32:40Speaker 3: going to want to keep pretty quiet about it, you know,
- 32:42Speaker 3: I probably I probably don't think you want to make
- 32:45Speaker 3: that a sort of you know, a munchable, bite sized
- 32:47Speaker 3: TikTok video and then to you know, look just I mean,
- 32:52Speaker 3: I'm I'm not a murderer, so I'm just guessing here,
- 32:56Speaker 3: But if you really are going to kill someone, don't
- 32:58Speaker 3: put a video on TikTok saying you're going to do it.
- 33:01Speaker 3: And again, now that just I'm not really particularly familiar
- 33:05Speaker 3: with this world. But if you are trying to convince
- 33:09Speaker 3: someone that you're a citizen of good character, maybe you
- 33:12Speaker 3: don't have an AK forty seven tattooed on your face.
- 33:16Speaker 3: Just these are just little tips I'm going to give
- 33:18Speaker 3: my you know, my kids as they get older and
- 33:21Speaker 3: they're trying to get by in life. You know, if
- 33:22Speaker 3: you want that big job sone, you know, maybe don't
- 33:25Speaker 3: have the giant face tat of the machine gun.
- 33:27Speaker 2: It's so bad. And it then came out during the
- 33:30Speaker 2: court proceedings that he'd already been convicted of around seventeen
- 33:33Speaker 2: crimes over in Sweden, So just absurd stuff that thankfully
- 33:37Speaker 2: justice was served. But there is some positive news in
- 33:41Speaker 2: the world. A new study out of the US has
- 33:44Speaker 2: found that the share of young people at universities identifying
- 33:49Speaker 2: as non binary has almost halved in the last two
- 33:54Speaker 2: years alone. In twenty twenty three, six point eight percent
- 33:57Speaker 2: of young people identified as non binary so not male
- 34:01Speaker 2: or not female however that works. And now that's down
- 34:04Speaker 2: to just three point six percent. So there was that
- 34:07Speaker 2: huge spike post COVID and it's come right off. This
- 34:11Speaker 2: gives me so much hope. But I think kel it
- 34:15Speaker 2: symbolizes two things. One, we've reached peak woke, which praise
- 34:19Speaker 2: the Lord for that, but also that the social contagion
- 34:23Speaker 2: elements the fact that this was a trend, a fad
- 34:27Speaker 2: is also fading. People are starting to realize this is
- 34:30Speaker 2: not cool, this is really weird, and it really.
- 34:33Speaker 1: Was a fad.
- 34:35Speaker 4: There were instances in American high schools, for example, where
- 34:38Speaker 4: if one girl decided she was trans, suddenly lots of
- 34:41Speaker 4: other girls of the same age in the same class
- 34:43Speaker 4: all made the same decision at about the same time.
- 34:46Speaker 4: So it was it was that kind of social infection.
- 34:49Speaker 4: I mean, this non binary thing, I find fascinating. How
- 34:52Speaker 4: you identify as being not male or female. I mean,
- 34:55Speaker 4: aren't you tempted to say, look, when you get out
- 34:57Speaker 4: of the shower, just look in the mirror.
- 34:59Speaker 1: You'll work.
- 35:00Speaker 4: It's not that confusing, And the idea that you could
- 35:02Speaker 4: identify as whatever you want to identify with. I identify as
- 35:06Speaker 4: being a seven foot tall champion basketball.
- 35:09Speaker 1: Player now, but I don't really I am? Are I right?
- 35:14Speaker 4: But I don't think any team is going to put
- 35:15Speaker 4: appointment to their team, so the identify what it means.
- 35:19Speaker 4: I think is there's been an outbreak of common sense.
- 35:22Speaker 4: You can't live in fantasy world. Sooner or later reality
- 35:26Speaker 4: breaks in, doesn't it.
- 35:27Speaker 3: Actually the real take home message is that all the
- 35:29Speaker 3: COVID vaccinations turned people non binary.
- 35:33Speaker 2: Interesting take there from Joe. But what does concern me
- 35:36Speaker 2: is how many kids have already undergone life changing hormone
- 35:39Speaker 2: therapies as a result of this fad. I guess we'll
- 35:42Speaker 2: find out in the future and it'll be very, very sad.
- 35:45Speaker 2: But coming up after the break breaking news coming out
- 35:48Speaker 2: of Victoria, they're going to consider women's safety in their
- 35:51Speaker 2: transgender prison policy. Will tell you more about that after
- 35:55Speaker 2: the break back to the program, We're going to start
- 36:01Speaker 2: by giving you tomorrow's papers today. In the Australian First Up,
- 36:06Speaker 2: Raddick urges party not to surrender to ALP on multiculturalism.
- 36:12Speaker 2: Liberal luminary Philip Raddick has issued a plea to the
- 36:15Speaker 2: Coalition not to allow concerns of MPs such as just Intera, Nama,
- 36:20Speaker 2: Jimmer Price and Andrew Hasty to color migration policy. As
- 36:24Speaker 2: Susan Lee indicates she'll soon unveil her party's revamped policy platform.
- 36:29Speaker 2: The stark warning from the former Attorney General followed seeing
- 36:33Speaker 2: a Liberal Front bencher James Patterson on Tuesday night urging
- 36:36Speaker 2: the party against following the populism of conservative movements in
- 36:40Speaker 2: Britain in the US, while arguing against surrendering the culture
- 36:43Speaker 2: wars to labor. Interesting intervention there from Raddick Kel.
- 36:48Speaker 4: Philip Braddick is someone I've often admired. He's a very
- 36:50Speaker 4: sensible man and he's one of the elders of the
- 36:52Speaker 4: Liberal Party. But I actually don't understand what he's saying
- 36:55Speaker 4: because as you followed the police further down, he's talking
- 36:57Speaker 4: about disagreements and debates about multiculturalism. The debate's not about that.
- 37:02Speaker 4: It's about numbers mass immigration. How many in total numbers
- 37:06Speaker 4: are coming into Australia and what are those numbers doing
- 37:10Speaker 4: to house prices? What are they doing to strain on infrastructure?
- 37:14Speaker 4: So it's just about big numbers or I mean, I've
- 37:17Speaker 4: thought for some time you need to work out a
- 37:19Speaker 4: formula that immigration equals integration, the level at which we
- 37:23Speaker 4: can provide the homes and the infrastructure and the schools
- 37:26Speaker 4: and the roads and so on. Now it would be
- 37:30Speaker 4: sensible to have that discussion, but I'm not sure that's
- 37:32Speaker 4: what he's talking about.
- 37:34Speaker 3: He's basically saying that if the Liberal Party is perceived
- 37:36Speaker 3: by migrants to be anti multiculturalism or anti immigration, it
- 37:40Speaker 3: will never win an election. And that is the fact.
- 37:43Speaker 3: That is just a mathematical fact. You can argue about it.
- 37:45Speaker 3: So the cows come home, but it is what happened
- 37:48Speaker 3: at the last election, and by the Liberal Party.
- 37:50Speaker 4: Joe, they've been servo showing that a lot of people
- 37:53Speaker 4: who are really against excessive immigration are the recent migrants.
- 37:57Speaker 4: They get here, they're having a good life. They don't
- 37:59Speaker 4: want their good life understrained because larger numbers of people.
- 38:04Speaker 3: Look at how communities voted the last election. They turned
- 38:07Speaker 3: right against the coalition. But the last election when community
- 38:11Speaker 3: did yeah no, and people were circulating that stuff and
- 38:14Speaker 3: they were saying that there are people who say that
- 38:16Speaker 3: multiculturalism doesn't work. There are heaps of people who say
- 38:18Speaker 3: it all the time. On the right. You had those
- 38:20Speaker 3: March for Australia rallies that were seen by the migrant
- 38:23Speaker 3: community as deliberately targeting them and Indians especially, and they
- 38:26Speaker 3: have all flocked away from the coalition and that is
- 38:29Speaker 3: just a f And again there's notice enough mine.
- 38:32Speaker 4: There is a sensible debate that's been going on for
- 38:34Speaker 4: some time and is coming to a head because of
- 38:36Speaker 4: the Abanizi government promised to reduce mass immigration, haven't done it.
- 38:40Speaker 1: Dick Smith has been campaigning for years.
- 38:43Speaker 4: We do not have an intelligence coherent immigration policy. There
- 38:46Speaker 4: needs to be a proper immigration policy that says this
- 38:49Speaker 4: is how many we can absorb.
- 38:51Speaker 3: There's all about It's about skilled migration. It's about do
- 38:54Speaker 3: we we have a skilled shortages, so we need to
- 38:56Speaker 3: bring in people to fill those shortages. That's why we've
- 38:58Speaker 3: got a manufacturing crisis. Is why we've got a housing crisis.
- 39:01Speaker 3: That's why we've got an age care crisis. And that's
- 39:03Speaker 3: why we bring those people in. They're not refugees. That's
- 39:05Speaker 3: not from the goodness of our own heart. It's because
- 39:07Speaker 3: we need the workers because we're not having any people.
- 39:10Speaker 1: Can't bring them in if we can't support them.
- 39:12Speaker 2: And the reality is when you look at the numbers,
- 39:14Speaker 2: the actual percentage of migrants you are skilled migrants has
- 39:18Speaker 2: been dropping and is pretty low now. A lot of
- 39:20Speaker 2: family reunions that provide a lot less economic benefit. But
- 39:23Speaker 2: also in the Australian Tomorrow, breaking news coming out of
- 39:26Speaker 2: Victoria State two way women's safety in trans prison strategy.
- 39:32Speaker 2: What wonderful I hear Victoria's corrections Minister has ordered the
- 39:36Speaker 2: state's prison authority to strengthen protections for female inmates, contradicting
- 39:40Speaker 2: earlier statements from premiages into Alan, in a move likely
- 39:43Speaker 2: to have implications for the transgender pedophile known by the
- 39:46Speaker 2: pseudonym Hillary Maloney. The Australian revealed this month that Maloney,
- 39:50Speaker 2: whose five year old daughter was his victim, had received
- 39:53Speaker 2: a minimum sentence of two and a half years for
- 39:56Speaker 2: production of thirteen videos and sixty four images involving a
- 39:59Speaker 2: verie if sex acts with young girl. So pretty horrific
- 40:02Speaker 2: circumstances in that case. But you know, wow, what a
- 40:06Speaker 2: radical idea that they would consider women's safety when talking
- 40:09Speaker 2: about women's prisons.
- 40:11Speaker 3: That I'd only get two and a half years in
- 40:12Speaker 3: the first place.
- 40:13Speaker 1: Which is unfair.
- 40:14Speaker 4: But the answer is put him in solitary confinement for
- 40:17Speaker 4: the entire duration of his prison sentence. That would make
- 40:21Speaker 4: it a bit tougher from him, and he got a
- 40:22Speaker 4: really soft sentence.
- 40:23Speaker 1: It would keep the women perfectly safe.
- 40:25Speaker 2: Yeah, or chemical castration. I think that's the other thing
- 40:28Speaker 2: we should be looking at in israa frustration custration, surgical
- 40:31Speaker 2: castration surgeon interesting idea there. Also in The Australian Tomorrow,
- 40:36Speaker 2: Joe's mate Bill Shorten shortened Pan's Uni echo chambers. Former
- 40:41Speaker 2: labor and union leader Bill Shorten has used his university
- 40:45Speaker 2: vice chancellorship to condemn extremist echo chambers and identity politics
- 40:50Speaker 2: in academia, calling for conservative voices to be heard. The
- 40:54Speaker 2: University of Canberra vice chancellor said universities should be a
- 40:57Speaker 2: safe space for disagreement. I want universe seems to be
- 41:00Speaker 2: a safe place not just for progressive ideas, but for
- 41:03Speaker 2: conservative and progressive ideas to be contested. He told The Australian. Wow,
- 41:08Speaker 2: that's actually pretty good and a very refreshing thing to
- 41:12Speaker 2: hear from a vice chancellor.
- 41:13Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely. And obviously last night in the previous front
- 41:17Speaker 3: page of The Australia and we saw Deacon University's they
- 41:20Speaker 3: say come and say something similar. I think I mentioned
- 41:22Speaker 3: that you'd see other smaller universities doing this, precisely because
- 41:28Speaker 3: Bill privately told me, which is why I didn't say
- 41:30Speaker 3: who it was, that this is exactly what he wanted
- 41:33Speaker 3: to do, and I just went all my sign apses
- 41:34Speaker 3: were firing. I thought, this is absolutely fantastic. Is exactly
- 41:37Speaker 3: what the university sector needs right.
- 41:39Speaker 1: It's a bit of a trend, isn't it. Well.
- 41:41Speaker 2: I think this will actually be a good business model
- 41:43Speaker 2: for them as well, because there's been a surge in
- 41:45Speaker 2: attendance at anti woke universities in the US because students
- 41:49Speaker 2: don't want to be in these radical, extreme environments in Doctrin.
- 41:53Speaker 4: Let's stay with the education because the Herald Son in
- 41:56Speaker 4: Melbourne has got a big headline on its front page
- 41:58Speaker 4: tomorrow saying Screensaver, and the story tells us that Victorian
- 42:02Speaker 4: primary school students will see their screen time slashed to
- 42:05Speaker 4: a maximum of ninety minutes a day in the classroom
- 42:08Speaker 4: and parents will no longer be forced to fork out
- 42:10Speaker 4: for the laptops. The Education and Transformation will be unveiled
- 42:14Speaker 4: in the state government today that will tomorrow, aiming to
- 42:18Speaker 4: take kids back to traditional learning by cutting reliance on technology,
- 42:22Speaker 4: and the schools will provide the laptops. The interesting thing
- 42:25Speaker 4: about this pray is there have been some studies showing
- 42:28Speaker 4: that education and learning happens in a relationship and that
- 42:32Speaker 4: learning off screens is a bit of an illusion.
- 42:35Speaker 1: Some things are learnt off.
- 42:36Speaker 4: Screens, but much less than you when you have a
- 42:39Speaker 4: person in front of you actually talking to you. They
- 42:42Speaker 4: discovered how little people learn from screens, and this will
- 42:45Speaker 4: horrify some people. When they tested people who'd seen the
- 42:49Speaker 4: nightly news on a commercial television program the night before,
- 42:53Speaker 4: most people had a difficulty remembering one of the stories,
- 42:57Speaker 4: and no one could remember more than three of the stories.
- 43:00Speaker 4: Television doesn't communicate in the way face to face people communicate.
- 43:05Speaker 3: Yeah, that's absolutely true, and they've done studies on this,
- 43:07Speaker 3: and all the best teaching results come from direct instruction,
- 43:11Speaker 3: direct engagement. They've even done there was a TV show
- 43:15Speaker 3: called School Revolution by a god I've spoken to for
- 43:19Speaker 3: various stuff we've done with education, but where you actually
- 43:22Speaker 3: map out the amount of time that the teacher spends
- 43:24Speaker 3: talking and the amount of time the students spend talking,
- 43:28Speaker 3: and that has a direct correlation to how much the
- 43:31Speaker 3: students actually learn and retain information. So if they're interacting more,
- 43:34Speaker 3: they learn more and they retain more and they get
- 43:36Speaker 3: better receiects.
- 43:37Speaker 2: And also how much time is wasted with students on
- 43:40Speaker 2: these laptops doing everything.
- 43:42Speaker 3: But school know how to do it. They come home,
- 43:46Speaker 3: they figured out how to play roadblocks there in the chat.
- 43:48Speaker 2: No matter what lockdown browsers you have, your kids are
- 43:51Speaker 2: probably finding a way around them. So I just think, yeah,
- 43:54Speaker 2: the fad of having technology in every classroom from a
- 43:57Speaker 2: super young age, I just don't think the evidence is
- 44:00Speaker 2: there to say that's beneficial in the later years. Yes,
- 44:03Speaker 2: I can see how that's good, but it's good to
- 44:06Speaker 2: see that being well man, that's great, fantastic.
- 44:08Speaker 3: Who would have thought the Victorian government doing something good?
- 44:10Speaker 2: Good ten years too late?
- 44:13Speaker 3: And now finally forget all those stories, forget you know,
- 44:16Speaker 3: the war in the Middle East, forget the war in Ukraine,
- 44:18Speaker 3: forget the future of our children. Finally we get to
- 44:21Speaker 3: the stories that really matter, and that is what the
- 44:24Speaker 3: hell is going on with Townsville mayor Troy Thompson. Well,
- 44:28Speaker 3: there's been a blockbuster up that you know. I'm obsessed
- 44:30Speaker 3: with this guy right now. This is the Townsville mayor
- 44:33Speaker 3: who was like put on some weird eternal secondment where
- 44:37Speaker 3: he was still being paid for being may and still
- 44:38Speaker 3: insisted that he was the mayor even though everyone else
- 44:41Speaker 3: said no, you're not the mayor. He said, yes, I am, Yes,
- 44:43Speaker 3: I am you don't know me. I don't know anyway.
- 44:46Speaker 3: Turns out he's not the mayor anymore. He's now the
- 44:48Speaker 3: former mayor and the Troy CCS. I love how they
- 44:52Speaker 3: call him Troy because everyone's known him. He's been around
- 44:54Speaker 3: so long, everyone knows him Troy. CCC report finally ready,
- 44:59Speaker 3: says Kate and Charles. The Crime and Corruption Commissioners finalized
- 45:02Speaker 3: its investigation into former Townsville Mayor Troy Thompson, with a
- 45:06Speaker 3: draft public report now in preparation. However, the CCC reblains
- 45:11Speaker 3: tightlift on whether the findings will be released, despite acknowledging
- 45:15Speaker 3: significant public interest. Wellnificant public interest. That's exactly why it
- 45:19Speaker 3: shouldn't be released, and no good could possibly come of that.
- 45:22Speaker 3: The potential the release of the report set against the
- 45:25Speaker 3: backdrop of the upcoming Townsville mayor or by election, So
- 45:30Speaker 3: even though he's no longer the mayor, they don't know
- 45:32Speaker 3: who the new mayor is because they have to elect
- 45:33Speaker 3: the mayor separately.
- 45:35Speaker 1: Thompson deserves his own reality TV he does.
- 45:39Speaker 3: I think he deserves to be mayor. I mean, this
- 45:40Speaker 3: is a guy who knows how to fight not for
- 45:42Speaker 3: his constituents, but for himself.
- 45:43Speaker 2: Definitely, maybe not. And that's all for now. Coming up
- 45:48Speaker 2: after the break, we're going to tell you about the
- 45:49Speaker 2: London schools that have banned parents from watching their own
- 45:53Speaker 2: kids play sport. Coming up after the break, welcome back
- 46:00Speaker 2: to the program. Well, there's been a lot of speculation
- 46:03Speaker 2: this week about whether Trump will get the Nobel Peace Prize.
- 46:06Speaker 2: But tell us Kel, there's been a development in that story.
- 46:09Speaker 1: He didn't get it.
- 46:09Speaker 4: Of course, it went to Maria what's her name, Maria
- 46:12Speaker 4: Corena Machado from Venezuela.
- 46:13Speaker 3: Maria what's her name is what everyone's calling her.
- 46:16Speaker 4: I got it right in the end, give me three chances,
- 46:20Speaker 4: and she deserves it.
- 46:21Speaker 1: She's been very heroic.
- 46:22Speaker 4: And nominations closed in the thirty first of January, so
- 46:25Speaker 4: it was too late for Trump. But Roger Stone is
- 46:28Speaker 4: an old Trump associate and advisor, and he was on
- 46:30Speaker 4: a podcast and he's calling on dear old Maria Corina
- 46:34Speaker 4: Machado to give it back so that it comes to Trump.
- 46:39Speaker 4: You think we do serious things on the late debate.
- 46:41Speaker 4: This is very silly. This is as silly as a
- 46:44Speaker 4: suggestion can get. She can't give it back. It's not
- 46:47Speaker 4: her decision. The Nobel Committee gave it to her. They
- 46:52Speaker 4: give you the Nobel Priest p here it is back again.
- 46:55Speaker 4: I just like it because it's just a silly suggestion.
- 46:58Speaker 2: Yeah, and he can still get it next year. And
- 47:00Speaker 2: I think it's kind of sad for Maria because it
- 47:02Speaker 2: does devalue her contribution, which in our own right has
- 47:05Speaker 2: been amazing.
- 47:06Speaker 3: I just love the fact that everyone on the left
- 47:08Speaker 3: of hat style and Trump's going, oh, it's like at
- 47:10Speaker 3: a Venezuelan human rights activisty got it, not you, you know,
- 47:14Speaker 3: as if they're like always been incredibly vocal supporters of Maria,
- 47:19Speaker 3: just like me. Then it turns out that Maria Chada
- 47:22Speaker 3: is like this massive pro trups. Anyway, it's so good.
- 47:26Speaker 3: It's fantastic something.
- 47:27Speaker 8: Now.
- 47:27Speaker 3: Another thing that's so good is violent and abusive behavior
- 47:31Speaker 3: by parents on the sports field, because that is exactly
- 47:33Speaker 3: what's happened. Parents have been banned from a London school
- 47:36Speaker 3: sports over bad behavior. They've been banned from attending their
- 47:40Speaker 3: children's sporting events in a London burrow. The Murten School
- 47:44Speaker 3: Sport Partnership runs sporting and physical education events across more
- 47:47Speaker 3: than forty primary schools in the Southwest London borough areas
- 47:52Speaker 3: including Wimbledon and Morden. So bit lucky darmind, Yeah, you
- 47:55Speaker 3: know it's the who Ray Henrys who are doing it,
- 47:58Speaker 3: and they've sided too many can discerning behaviors to be
- 48:01Speaker 3: able to continue to accommodate spectators. So they're not even
- 48:04Speaker 3: allowed rock up to their kids' sport because these rich
- 48:07Speaker 3: tofts can't be trusted to keep their pants on when
- 48:11Speaker 3: the temperature gets right.
- 48:12Speaker 2: That is so bad, so so bad. For something else
- 48:15Speaker 2: that's really terrible is Anthony Albanisi and a whole bunch
- 48:18Speaker 2: of world leaders have had their private phone numbers leaked
- 48:23Speaker 2: on the Internet by an AI scraping software somehow track
- 48:27Speaker 2: down their phone numbers, so Joe. That leaves us with
- 48:30Speaker 2: the question, what would you text Anthony alban Easy?
- 48:34Speaker 3: Tang on. Sorry, I'm just sorr. I just got to
- 48:35Speaker 3: text it. Don't worry about it, mate, you're doing a
- 48:37Speaker 3: great job. Screw then.
- 48:40Speaker 2: And Kel what would your text be?
- 48:41Speaker 1: One word? One word?
- 48:43Speaker 2: Resign, can't say it better than that, Kel. Mine would
- 48:48Speaker 2: probably be see you later. But that's three words and
- 48:51Speaker 2: that's all we have for you tonight. Thank you so
- 48:54Speaker 2: much for tuning into the late debate coming up after
- 48:57Speaker 2: the break is the Reader Panay Show.
