Calls to impose severe penalties on Australians who buy petrol or diesel cars · The Slippery Slope

• 0:04
  Hi. I'm Jay Fallon and thank you for
• 0:06
  listening to the slippery slope. So for a while now I've been
• 0:11
  talking about electric vehicles and how I believe they are going
• 0:14
  to affect our lives and the negative impact, I believe that
• 0:19
  they will have upon the ordinary Citizen.
• 0:22
  And also, I believe I've been raising the alarm because I
• 0:25
  believe that electric vehicles will be used as a power grab by
• 0:29
  government. It's to place further
• 0:31
  restrictions upon the ordinary citizens lives.
• 0:36
  Now, I want to read this headline, I'll read this article
• 0:39
  to you from the Daily Mail. The headline says calls to
• 0:43
  impose. Severe penalties on Australians
• 0:46
  who buy petrol or diesel cars. Now listen the beauty with
• 0:50
  petrol and diesel cars. Is that you can get up and go
• 0:54
  for a drive whenever wherever you like.
• 0:57
  It's not a matter of coming home and charging.
• 1:00
  When you're out and about, you know, if you need fuel you can
• 1:02
  stop in get fuel and only takes a couple of minutes to pour
• 1:06
  fuel. You know.
• 1:08
  Have it have it. Put into your vehicle as long as
• 1:11
  you can pay for it. You'll fine.
• 1:12
  And I don't believe that we should be penalized because we
• 1:16
  choose to have one of these vehicles.
• 1:19
  However, this will not will turn, that's not what other
• 1:22
  people are starting to say. If you don't have an electric
• 1:25
  vehicle, apparently, you're a bad person you should be
• 1:29
  penalized. Allies.
• 1:30
  So, in the article says, Australians could be slapped
• 1:33
  with a four thousand dollar penalty for buying a four-wheel
• 1:36
  drive, as a billionaire calls for a dramatic surge in electric
• 1:41
  vehicles, to tackle climate change.
• 1:43
  Don't you love it? When you have a billion, are you
• 1:45
  sticking his nose into into, you know, the general politics of
• 1:50
  the nation and starts telling normal citizens what they should
• 1:54
  do? I love those doing this anyway,
• 1:57
  since TVs in 2022 so far, have a minuscule market share of just
• 2:02
  one point six percent and the all-electric SUVs that are
• 2:06
  available from Tesla BMW and Audi cost at least six figures
• 2:12
  with no Utes available. So Griffith University, tax law,
• 2:16
  experts. And you know what, I think when
• 2:19
  people are referred to as experts, anyway, dr.
• 2:22
  Anna mortem, or has suggested a Australia will have to copy New
• 2:26
  Zealand and impose severe penalties on those who bought a
• 2:30
  new petrol-powered car. If it wanted to boost EV uptake
• 2:35
  to Kiwi levels. Well, yeah, and that makes sense
• 2:38
  why not why not copy the country that financially economically is
• 2:44
  starting to go backwards. So yeah, we definitely should
• 2:47
  copy the kiwis anyway software, billionaire, Mike Ken and
• 2:52
  Brooks, you know, the software billionaire who's We all need to
• 2:55
  know he's opinion on everything he wants.
• 2:58
  Australians, he wants Australia's EV to hit 10 percent
• 3:02
  by 2020 for well. Good on you Mike, a five-fold
• 3:06
  increase on current levels. Most new cars.
• 3:09
  Sold in Australia, our SUVs overwhelmingly available with
• 3:12
  either a petrol or diesel motor Australia's two best sellers are
• 3:17
  also youths with no, all electric model available with
• 3:20
  the Toyota Hilux and Ford Ranger go.
• 3:23
  The Ford Ranger I happen to own a Ford Ranger of Ford Ranger
• 3:26
  wildtrak. Best car ever had fantastic.
• 3:29
  So, you know, if Ford, if you ever want to sponsor the show,
• 3:33
  feel free going on. The volume selling dual cab
• 3:38
  versions of these units are also the four-wheel drive versions
• 3:42
  favored by more than just trade these for those weekend
• 3:45
  adventurers, then that's me. And my wife love to go camping
• 3:48
  this weekend. I'm going camping.
• 3:51
  Who are the southern end of the whitsundays?
• 3:54
  The Fantastic camping. Near the beach.
• 3:58
  Anyway, continuing on former deputy prime minister Barnaby
• 4:02
  Joyce has warned climate change. Minister Chris bones plan to
• 4:07
  introduce fuel efficiency. Standards was a threat to the
• 4:11
  affordable, four-wheel drive, in Regional areas, where incomes
• 4:15
  are lower. Mr. Bowen, has changed the laws
• 4:18
  on vehicle standards and now we're going to pay more for four
• 4:22
  wheel drives in country, areas Barnaby Joyce.
• 4:25
  Told the ABCs inside a program on Sunday.
• 4:28
  Mr. Bowen. And transport Minister
• 4:31
  Catherine, King on Friday and there's the federal government
• 4:34
  would be developing new fuel efficiency standards as part of
• 4:38
  a national electric vehicle strategy in 2022.
• 4:42
  So far, Evie's had a very small one point six percent market
• 4:47
  share with Tesla. Now included the federal chamber
• 4:51
  of Automotive Industries data covering January to July But mr.
• 4:55
  Kenan Brooks, you know, the billionaire, who sticks his nose
• 4:58
  in and advocate for for renewable energy, who co-founded
• 5:02
  software giant atlassian. Which by the way is starting to
• 5:07
  lose its market share because they haven't kept up with the
• 5:10
  times. Anyway, they want, he wants that
• 5:15
  to multiply fivefold within two years to get to ten percent by
• 5:20
  2020 for we have to have the belief that it is possible.
• 5:24
  This is And Brooks told the national electric vehicle Summit
• 5:28
  in Canberra on Friday. Our standards cannot be a step
• 5:32
  forward from where we are today. They have to catch up to where
• 5:37
  the rest of the world is. Dr. Morton more pointed out.
• 5:40
  That New Zealand had subsidies of up to eight New Zealand
• 5:44
  Dollars. 8625 dollars for new, EV purchases and had since April
• 5:50
  introduced penalties of up to New Zealand, 4,500 Dollars for
• 5:55
  those who bought new petrol or diesel powered vehicles.
• 5:59
  She says Australia would have to also impose a similarly harsh
• 6:04
  penalty and copy New Zealand's, very generous subsidy scheme.
• 6:09
  The penalty is going to have be a major difference.
• 6:11
  She told this is the so called flipping expert.
• 6:15
  She told. Daily Mail Australia, you can
• 6:18
  change the taxes to make it more benefit, beneficial for uptake
• 6:22
  of Evie's, a subsidy only makes it more Attractive dr.
• 6:26
  Mortimer said Australia, would have to reduce its average car
• 6:30
  emissions, by 40% to be comparable with Europe, where
• 6:34
  electric vehicles, comprise a majority of new cars in Norway.
• 6:39
  It's good to it's good to compare our use of electric
• 6:43
  vehicles to a country. Like Norway, I mean, you know,
• 6:46
  there's a lot of similarities. Norway is a tiny minuscule,
• 6:49
  little nation in Europe and Australia is a massive, massive
• 6:55
  Tent where you can go in some places and travel for hours
• 7:00
  without seeing a petrol Bowser. So yeah.
• 7:03
  It makes sense to compare us to what happens in Norway.
• 7:07
  Like I said these, these so-called experts when people
• 7:11
  come out and all they want to do is add taxes on, you know, you
• 7:16
  know, you're in trouble. I've been saying this for a
• 7:18
  while, electric vehicles, will provide governments with the
• 7:22
  ability to control its citizens. Beyond ways that we can have
• 7:27
  never thought imaginable. Just the last couple of months
• 7:31
  we've seen great pressures, put upon our electric grid system.
• 7:36
  Could you imagine if the electric vehicle the amount of
• 7:40
  electric vehicles? In that Nation went up fivefold
• 7:45
  within a couple of months, our luxury grids, wouldn't be able
• 7:49
  to handle the pressure and we are already at the point where
• 7:52
  our electric grids, feel the strain.
• 7:55
  Pain of being overloaded, but I've reported on what's
• 7:58
  happening in the UK, okay? Where the government can place
• 8:02
  restrictions on when you are when you charge your vehicle,
• 8:06
  even in your even in your own home, they put restrictions on
• 8:10
  homeowners the type of charging system that they have to have.
• 8:14
  The charging system has to be connected to the grid.
• 8:18
  The government can, the government can monitor What's
• 8:22
  happening with the grid and if they feel there's too much
• 8:25
  pressure, put on the general grid, the electric grid they can
• 8:29
  switch off when you are charging.
• 8:32
  They can put restrictions on when you can charge and if
• 8:35
  there's too much pressure they can actually stop your vehicle
• 8:38
  from being charged. Another words they can control
• 8:42
  how much power you have in your vehicle.
• 8:46
  You can get up the next morning, pinky your vehicles being
• 8:49
  charged overnight and find out that your vehicle hasn't been
• 8:53
  charged. And instead of being able to
• 8:54
  drive all day, you can would you probably can't even drive
• 8:57
  because you can't take the risk. This will just give the
• 9:00
  government's more power, more control.
• 9:03
  And these fools at stay, let's stand up and say, well, we just
• 9:07
  need to. We just need to penalize people
• 9:10
  for having the choice for making their own choice and buying a
• 9:13
  petrol or diesel vehicle. These so-called experts, and
• 9:17
  these pain in the butt billionaires, like, Ken and
• 9:19
  Brooks need to mind their own business.
• 9:23
  Anyway, you know where I think this is all leading.
• 9:26
  This is leading towards the One World Government.
• 9:30
  This is leading to Greater Powers towards our governments
• 9:33
  that they can have greater control over the everyday
• 9:37
  citizens life. We are on a slippery.
• 9:41
  Slope don't allow ourselves don't allow yourselves to be
• 9:44
  pressured into buying an electric vehicle.
• 9:48
  We need to hold our politicians accountable.
• 9:51
  And tell them we want to have the choice, and not be
• 9:56
  penalized, because because we decide we want a petrol or
• 9:59
  diesel vehicle and not be pressured down the road that we
• 10:03
  don't want to go. That's my opinion.
• 10:06
  Thank you for listening to the slippery slope.
