  Speaker 1: Jez Is the Gold Report.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Tonight the sick excuses the left is making for soccer
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: star Sam Kurz smashing a cab and racially abusing a
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: white policeman allegedly honestly, we are stupid and white. Also tonight,
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Labor snubs the opposition leader as he speaks on emotion
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: to condemn anti Semitism and even walks out on him,
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: another shocking sign that this government doesn't take due hatred seriously.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Plus the Greens the man that Donald Trump's politics be
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: stopped from coming here. What is scaring them so much?
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Is it? Trump now canceling grants like these.
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: Forty seven thousand for a transgender opera in Colombia, thirty
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: two one thousand for a transgender comic book in Peru.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: And speaking of Trump, Mexico and Canada have surrendered almost
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: immediately to his tariff war and new Southwest Transport Minister
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Joe Halen quits for abusing her taxpay funded perks. Pink Pink,
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: But First Partment started again today and it didn't talk
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: about the biggest disaster of the Ambanizi government. It's a
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: catastrophe that threatens our future and it's masterminded by the
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: most dangerous man in this government, Energy Minister Chris Bowen,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: who today actually had the hide to boast he'd overseen
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: a success.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: Over the last three years.
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: We have now seen four gigawatts.
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: Of dispatchable energy enter the grid, mister speaker, off under them,
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: on under us.
• 1:47
  Speaker 6: And that's in addition to fifteen gigawats of renewable energy
• 1:50
  Speaker 6: as well, mister speaker.
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: We know that we need more electricity for moraliability and
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: for lower prices.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Now now true. There was a brief debate today on
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: the government's broken promise that its green plants would cut
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: your electricity bills by two hundred and seventy five dollars.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: What a laughter that turned out to be, but there
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: was none on the abaneze government's wider plants produce clean
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: energy actually now being in chaos and in a way
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: the symbol of it today wind Tower west of Geelong
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: having a blade ripped off last night by the wind.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: It's supposed to be turning into electricity. But more serious,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: in the past twenty four hours there have been two
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: very big signs of bones catastrophe and of a growing
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: panic that it's causing. The first is more business groups
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: now freaking saying well, yes, yes, sir, you know we
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: need renewables. Don't call us climate skeptics, but Labour's plans
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: are killing us. Yesterday that was said by the organization
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: as I told you, that covers businesses that supply of
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: foods to shops and restaurants, and they've got big freezers
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: and fridges and they've worn that power. Prices under Labour
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: have gone up fifty percent. They can't handle it. And
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: today three more organizations sounded a similar alarm. The Council
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: or Small Business Organizations said energy bills are crippling the
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: ability for operators to stay in business. The Chamber of
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Commerce and Industry Labour's target of getting to eighty two
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: percent of renewable energy B twenty thirty is that realistic.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: I think that's downful and a plea for lots more exploration,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: production and energy generation using gas in the interim and
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: the Master Plumber is also born against the government's target.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Setting rigid targets without ensuring reliable based load power could
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: lead to price volatility and supply issues. You won't have
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: much of it and it'll cost the bomb. But to
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: the second new sign and it makes me think you know,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: if Chris Bone we're in private business, he'd be fired.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: I mean almost every month another one of his global
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: warming schemes hits the ball, and today yet another Bowen
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: has been throwing your money at green hydrogen. This is
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: a plan to use massive amounts of wind and solar
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: power to make hydrogen from water. It's never been proven
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: at scale anywhere. Costs horrendous, Yet Bone kept claiming that
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: this would be the miracle gas that he said was essential,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: essential to making us a world energy superpower.
• 4:30
  Speaker 7: Our green hydrogen future is fundamental to that clean energy future.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: And it was barely a year ago that Bone claimed
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: that Australia in fact now had the biggest pipeline of
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: hydrogen projects in the world. In fact, six were in
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: line for two billion dollars of handouts of your money
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: that Bone was offering under his hydrogen Headstart program. Just
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: one year later, one year half of those six projects
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: have already collapsed or in huge trouble. Now. The latest,
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: a planned green hydrogen plant in Western Australia called H
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: two Quinana oil and gas producer BP is now just
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: put that on ice, as well as another clean fuel project.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Last night of course, I told you about the second
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: one of these projects in Gladstone, now in huge trouble
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: after the Queensland government refused to tip another billion dollars
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: into it. And before that there was a third there
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: was Orangin Energy walking away from another one of these
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: schemes that Bowen had been touting.
• 5:41
  Speaker 7: Under an Albanizy labor government, Curry Curry in the Hunter
• 5:44
  Speaker 7: Valley will be the heart of the hydrogen revolution.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: A green hydrogen is, as I warned as a layman
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: years ago, to expensive. So Bowen's plans are falling apart
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: off with your money going down the drain. For instance,
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: is last year even promised money for a green hydrogen
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: hub in Tasmania.
• 6:06
  Speaker 7: Our green hydrogen future is fundamental to that clean energy future.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: But since then Woodside Energy and other energy giant has
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: joined Andrew Forrest Fortescue in walking out of that scheme
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: as well. And you've got to ask what green scheme
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: backed by Chris Bowen with your money hasn't been in strife.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: I mean his rollout of wind and solar factories and
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: transmission lines later over budget, his target to get a
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Strands to buy more electric cars. That's in huge strife too.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: He's also had to drop his target of having electric
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: cars make up eighty nine percent of new cars sold
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: by the end of this decade. Sales in fact are
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: way down. The pump Tidro scheme snowy, also way of
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: a budget and too late. Everything Boone touches seems to
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: turn to rubble. Douck's promised to cut your electricity bills
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: by two hundred and seventy five dollars. As you see,
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: they have instead gone way up. Or has promised to
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: run the new Curry Curry gas plant and green Oddgen
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: the plant operators told them impossible. In fact, I've got
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: to say it's almost comic now to see how fast
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Chris Bone's schemes can fall over. I think the record
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: was set last August. Actually, Bone said it give Ampole
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: one hundred million dollars of your money to build two
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: hundred new charging stations for electric cars by the end
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: of the year. It took only two weeks before Ampole admitted, well,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: in fact, this is technically impossible without a massive upgrade
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: of a power system. Sweater to God, and it goes
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: on and on. This is an absurd record of failure.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: How can anyone so incompetent, so blinded by global warming ideology,
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: be in charge of your power supply. And this man,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: I've got to say it again, this man must be
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: sacked before our electricity system is destroyed by his crazy plans.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Joining me his Tuesday regular Matt Canavan, national MP and
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: former Resources mister Matt, Great to see you. Look, I honestly,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: I've been following politics for decades. I've never seen such
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: a total record of failure by one minister. How could
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Bowen get so much wrong and still not be sacked?
• 8:41
  Speaker 8: Well, he might not be sacked, Andrew, but I think
• 8:42
  Speaker 8: he might be in a witness protection scheme. I mean,
• 8:44
  Speaker 8: where is he? It's pretty hard to find Chris Bowen
• 8:48
  Speaker 8: these days. He's obviously a walking embarrassment for the Labor
• 8:53
  Speaker 8: government because it was he was the principal designer, architect
• 8:58
  Speaker 8: spokesperson which sold the they now lie that they would
• 9:01
  Speaker 8: lower your power bill by two hundred and seventy five dollars.
• 9:04
  Speaker 8: So the Labor Party is desperately trying to hide him.
• 9:07
  Speaker 8: But I don't think the Australian people will forget that
• 9:10
  Speaker 8: they were promised a big cut in their power bills
• 9:14
  Speaker 8: just three years ago. The Labor Party has not been
• 9:17
  Speaker 8: able to deliver it that. They haven't given a convincing
• 9:19
  Speaker 8: excuse about why they used to blame Vladimir Putin, But
• 9:22
  Speaker 8: that was clearly wrong given coal prices back to where
• 9:25
  Speaker 8: they are and we're still paying way way more for
• 9:27
  Speaker 8: power than when the Labor Party got elected. So look,
• 9:30
  Speaker 8: the Australian people will have a say on Chris Bowen
• 9:32
  Speaker 8: in a few months time, and if you do want
• 9:34
  Speaker 8: him sacked, make sure you vote for Peter Dutton, a
• 9:38
  Speaker 8: Liberal Party Liberal National Party governments, and tell your friends
• 9:41
  Speaker 8: to do the same.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: I want to ask you a question that we at
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Sky have been asking Labor ministers. Pretty simple, how much
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: will Labour's renewable energy plan cost? This Now? Last night
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: I showed Minister Tim Heyres had no idea. Laura Jay's
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: gave him the round to the kitchen, no idea. And
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: it isn't the first time over Matt. I mean, here
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: is Peter Stephanovic asking the Deputy Promen this's is that
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: very same thing last June?
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: So what's the cost of the total renewables roll out? Well,
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: what we are, what we're seeing with renewables is and
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: this is the big difference.
• 10:22
  Speaker 8: At AP compared to where we were at a decade
• 10:25
  Speaker 8: or fifteen years ago, is that the cheapest form of
• 10:29
  Speaker 8: energy in the system is renewable energy. Is it over
• 10:32
  Speaker 8: a trillion Is it over a trillion dollar?
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean, you can pick out figures over particular
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: periods of time, but you don't know the total cost.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: Well, let me ask you. The government won't give a
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: straight answer, what is the cost.
• 10:55
  Speaker 8: Well, the Frontier Economics has costed the government's plan, and
• 10:59
  Speaker 8: they put the total cost throughout up all the costs
• 11:01
  Speaker 8: over the next thirty years, at six hundred and forty
• 11:04
  Speaker 8: two billion dollars. Now, that does depend on a range
• 11:07
  Speaker 8: of other scenarios, so they've got to range to some
• 11:09
  Speaker 8: of them a bit lower than that. Some could be higher
• 11:11
  Speaker 8: if there are blowouts on transmission projects. But it's definitely
• 11:14
  Speaker 8: in the order of that five to six hundred billion dollars,
• 11:17
  Speaker 8: whichever way you cut it. I don't know if Sky
• 11:20
  Speaker 8: New's going to get too many labor ministers in the future.
• 11:24
  Speaker 8: They're all probably ducking and covering from your shows. But
• 11:27
  Speaker 8: if we had a half decent media, every every ABC interview,
• 11:31
  Speaker 8: these guys do right now that should be the first question,
• 11:33
  Speaker 8: what is the cost? Tell us what the cost is.
• 11:36
  Speaker 8: They haven't costed this properly. There's a thing called the
• 11:38
  Speaker 8: Integrated System Plan which is done by our energy regulators,
• 11:42
  Speaker 8: but that doesn't cost all of the supply costs of
• 11:46
  Speaker 8: our power delivery systems, including for example, the solar panels
• 11:49
  Speaker 8: that people build, the batteries behind the meter batteries.
• 11:52
  Speaker 9: We did that.
• 11:53
  Speaker 8: This Frontier Economics did that, and they came up with
• 11:55
  Speaker 8: that massive cost, and they also looked at well, what
• 11:58
  Speaker 8: would have been if we did nuclear? That was a
• 12:00
  Speaker 8: lot lower cost. It was only three hundred and thirty
• 12:02
  Speaker 8: one billion. Well, I shouldn't say only the three onund
• 12:04
  Speaker 8: thirty one billion dollars. Still a lot of money, isn't it?
• 12:06
  Speaker 8: Three on thirty one billion dollars for a nuclear option?
• 12:08
  Speaker 8: Forty four percent cheaper than the Labor Party option, and
• 12:13
  Speaker 8: in my view, be cheap again if we hadd a
• 12:15
  Speaker 8: call to that as well. But no one's cost of that, unfortunately.
• 12:17
  Speaker 8: I wonder why.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I wonder where too. I must say, they won't
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: tell you the cost, nor would they tell you the benefit.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's incredible. I mean, I've asked Kevin rud
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: My question has been asked for me of Julia Gillard.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: I've asked the Environment Minister Greg Hunt when he was
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: in the Liberal government how much? But how much will
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: the temperature actually be cut with these plans? Never tell you?
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: The answer is zer you don't have to do about zero.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: It's not enough to what in the project have you
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: ever seen? But whatever other project have you ever seen
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: where they won't tell you the cost, they won't tell
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: you the benefit. I mean, it's it's just literally insane.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: One day we'll look back and laugh that people could
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: be so foolish by the way, the government today went
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: full out attack and the Opposition's promised to bring back
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: tax deductions for business lunches in a restaurant for businesses
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: turning over under ten million dollars a year. Right now,
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: you can claim lunches only if you have the lunch
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: at your place of businesses. The Prime Minister, on.
• 13:21
  Speaker 7: Top of their opposition of all about cost of living measures,
• 13:25
  Speaker 7: the only policy that they have put forward, the only
• 13:29
  Speaker 7: policy they've come up with, is for every taxpayer to
• 13:33
  Speaker 7: fund a free lunch that those opposites have now doubled
• 13:38
  Speaker 7: down on today, double down.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: So why should taxpayers pay for lunches in restaurants for businessmen?
• 13:47
  Speaker 8: Well, I think it makes things equal Andrew. If you
• 13:50
  Speaker 8: go to the large corporate offices in our country, they
• 13:53
  Speaker 8: often have their own chefs and dining rooms effectively of
• 13:56
  Speaker 8: boardrooms dining rooms. Some of us like, I've been there
• 14:01
  Speaker 8: and it's all very lovely and nice. But they get
• 14:04
  Speaker 8: a tax deduction for that. As you've just described. Now,
• 14:06
  Speaker 8: obviously your local small business you mum and dad, real
• 14:09
  Speaker 8: estate agent, whatever you might be running, they can't afford
• 14:12
  Speaker 8: to have those overheads, so they don't get access to
• 14:14
  Speaker 8: that deduction. Why shouldn't they If they just want to
• 14:17
  Speaker 8: entertain their clients at a local restaurant, supporting other local
• 14:20
  Speaker 8: small businesses, why shouldn't they be able to do that.
• 14:24
  Speaker 8: So I think it's a very sensible policy or mean
• 14:26
  Speaker 8: small business play less tax. And ultimately, again, if you
• 14:29
  Speaker 8: want to pay less tax, the only option for the
• 14:32
  Speaker 8: next election is to vote out this labor government and
• 14:34
  Speaker 8: vote for the Liberal National Party that believe in that.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: I think it's also there's also an argument being run
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: that is just going to help the restaurant in trade,
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: which is really flat. But that said, we'll see we'll see,
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: we'll see mat Canavan, thank you so much indeed for
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: your time now too. A big question, how is it
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: possible for you to be racist to a white person?
• 15:03
  Speaker 10: You know?
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Can you be racist if you're not white yourself? Now?
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: I thought the answer was obvious, of course you can.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: This is about a principle, a lot of side. But
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: it seems that answer is now wrong to judge from
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: the reaction I heard on the ABC today to Australian
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: soccer staff Sam Kerr, a captain of the Matilda's. She's
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: in a London court on charges this week intentionally causing
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: racially aggravated harassment, alarm or distress through a police officer.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: This is back in twenty twenty three. Yes, she and
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: her girlfriend had jumped into a taxi. They were drunk.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: Curve threw up the taxi driver ass to pay the
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: usual two hundred dollars clean up charge. Curve refuse, so
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: we drove them to a police station. There, Kurr and
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: a friend smashed his back window. We're crawling out. When
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: police arrived, they told her to pay up, pay for
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: the window too, and then she got abusive.
• 15:59
  Speaker 11: Did you stay on the phone long enough to even
• 16:00
  Speaker 11: speak someone thing, okay, but they wouldn't do that. Though
• 16:05
  Speaker 11: they wouldn't do that, you should have spoken to.
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: The honestly, we have stupid and white.
• 16:15
  Speaker 12: Okay, so stupid.
• 16:24
  Speaker 13: Over this?
• 16:25
  Speaker 14: This is the world problem.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: Wait on the call, Wait on the call.
• 16:31
  Speaker 15: Wait all right, I'll go over at the moment.
• 16:35
  Speaker 11: Then at three seventeen, you're under rest for criminal damage
• 16:38
  Speaker 11: because there's an allegation that you've smashed that taxi window.
• 16:41
  Speaker 11: You're also under rest for racial aggrevated public order for
• 16:43
  Speaker 11: the comments that you've said. The reason that's fine, The
• 16:47
  Speaker 11: reason for your rast is for prompt effect.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: Stupid and white. Now, before I get to the debate,
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: let's check the facts. So far this goes outside the
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: court hearing or the building we're tonight. Kerr is going
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: to take the witness stand there. Joining me from London
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: is News Courts and now our europe correspondent, Sophie Ellsworth. Sophie,
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: great to see you again. Look, first of all, take
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: me through it. Why wouldn't Kerr pay for the vomiting
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: in the cab? When she was first asked.
• 17:20
  Speaker 13: Well, Andrew.
• 17:21
  Speaker 12: Yesterday here in London we had day one of the
• 17:23
  Speaker 12: trial and we heard from the police officer involved in
• 17:28
  Speaker 12: this alleged incident, and Miss Kerr explained to the officer
• 17:33
  Speaker 12: that she claimed she was held hostage for fifty minutes
• 17:36
  Speaker 12: by the taxi driver and she was very scared and
• 17:40
  Speaker 12: this prompted her to take several actions, and as we
• 17:43
  Speaker 12: heard in the court yesterday, she smashed through a window
• 17:47
  Speaker 12: in the taxi and the officers saw her jumping out
• 17:50
  Speaker 12: of the taxi window. So this was a late night
• 17:53
  Speaker 12: taxi ride. She was due to go home, returning to
• 17:56
  Speaker 12: her residence, but when things turned sour, the taxi driver
• 18:01
  Speaker 12: contacted police and he was told to divert the taxi
• 18:04
  Speaker 12: to the twicken And police station to handle the matters there.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but it all started when she vomited. I mean,
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: that's simply fixed. I would have thought, I mean, this
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: poor taxi guy, but fixed by offering to pay. But anyway,
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: there it is, and then calling the policeman, as we
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: heard on his body cam, stupid and white and effing
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: stupid and white. What's the excuse there?
• 18:34
  Speaker 12: So we heard about thirty minutes of vision that was
• 18:37
  Speaker 12: played from body cam into the courtroom yesterday. Now, this
• 18:41
  Speaker 12: again didn't go well when the police officer and we
• 18:45
  Speaker 12: heard it earlier in the vision.
• 18:46
  Speaker 13: He asked her. He asked miss her if she.
• 18:49
  Speaker 12: Had contacted someone, because she's claiming that she was scared
• 18:52
  Speaker 12: inside the taxi and that's when she rang for help.
• 18:55
  Speaker 13: She did explain that she contacted.
• 18:57
  Speaker 12: Nine one one, although nine one one is not the
• 19:00
  Speaker 12: emergency services number here in the UK, it's in America.
• 19:04
  Speaker 12: And then she said she was hung up on and
• 19:06
  Speaker 12: that's when the police officer PC level said, well, emergency services,
• 19:10
  Speaker 12: they wouldn't.
• 19:11
  Speaker 13: Hang up on you.
• 19:12
  Speaker 12: And that's when she used that, you know, pretty overwhelming
• 19:17
  Speaker 12: language to describe the police officer.
• 19:20
  Speaker 13: And that is why she's in court in this trial.
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: So the implication being that they hung up in her
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: because they're white and they're picking on her having some
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Indian heritage. I mean, this is quite strange. But anyway,
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: what did the police officers say about being called a white,
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: white and stupid?
• 19:43
  Speaker 12: So Andrew he was asked that in court and he
• 19:46
  Speaker 12: said that it made him upset and you know, he
• 19:50
  Speaker 12: was obviously not pleased to be called to be labeled
• 19:54
  Speaker 12: those names, and that's when he said that she was
• 19:56
  Speaker 12: under arrest after three am on the morning of the
• 19:59
  Speaker 12: nine The things turned sour here. So we are expected
• 20:03
  Speaker 12: to hear from this ker today in London in court
• 20:06
  Speaker 12: on day two. The trials expected to run till at
• 20:09
  Speaker 12: least Thursday, so there's still a long way to go.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: I just want to ask you one more question which
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: is important for my panel discussion in a second. Sam
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Kerr and the cabby, which one is rich? Which one
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: has the cultural power? Tell us about the two of them.
• 20:32
  Speaker 12: Well, there was an issue over the cab fair and
• 20:35
  Speaker 12: a disagreement over the cab fair. Now this also was
• 20:39
  Speaker 12: heard in court yesterday where Sam Kerr showed the police
• 20:42
  Speaker 12: officer her bank balance and basically showed that she had
• 20:46
  Speaker 12: plenty of money.
• 20:47
  Speaker 13: She could have paid the cab fair, but.
• 20:49
  Speaker 12: She was not going to pay the taxi driver because
• 20:51
  Speaker 12: she claims he had held her hostage for fifty minutes
• 20:54
  Speaker 12: and she was scared for her life. So this is
• 20:57
  Speaker 12: where the dispute unfolded. As to how much money he has,
• 21:01
  Speaker 12: who knows, but this was what the dispute originated over.
• 21:05
  Speaker 12: Then we obviously had the vomiting in the cab, the
• 21:07
  Speaker 12: breaking of the glass on the window of the cab,
• 21:11
  Speaker 12: and also damage to the plastic shielding that is between
• 21:14
  Speaker 12: the taxi driver and the passengers.
• 21:16
  Speaker 13: So things turned pretty ugly. Andrew.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, superstar athlete who I presume is not short
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: of a quid given the sponsorships and all that, and
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: a poor taxi as taxi drivers had his cab apparently
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: wrecked boy and vomited in Sophie Elsworth, thank you so
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: much for your time. Really appreciate the effort in getting
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: early to the court. Thank you well. After the break,
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: you've heard the facts about this Sam Kirk case. Now
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: I'm going to play you the bizarre reaction from some
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: ABC listeners and wonder where did they get the idea
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: that you can't be racist to a weight. More on
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: that too after this. Okay, I told you the facts
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: about the Sam Kirk case. Before the break, a drunken
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: superstar and a girlfriend get in a London taxi. She vomits,
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: won't pay for the cleanup, claims she's being hijacked by
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: the taxi drivers. Driving it to the police station, they
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: smash the wind the back window and damage his security screen.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: And then when she's in the police station, she calls
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: a police officer white and stupid allegedly allegedly. But here
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: now are some of the excuses made for Sam Kerb
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: by ABC listeners this morning. First, a woman identifying Zaboriginal said,
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: you can't be racist when you abuse of white.
• 22:45
  Speaker 15: White people are not a minority, certainly in London.
• 22:49
  Speaker 9: And when you talk about racial vilification, racism is about
• 22:52
  Speaker 9: when you are insulted, vilified, whatever it is, prejudice has been.
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: Put on you.
• 23:00
  Speaker 15: You're a minority. I'm just interested in how an Aboriginal
• 23:04
  Speaker 15: soccer player an Australian.
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: I think she describes herself as anger Indian.
• 23:12
  Speaker 15: How can a Bipop person be the person that's racially
• 23:17
  Speaker 15: feel a fine.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: Another listener suggested much the same, Kerr was in fact
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: the real victim, not the poor Cabby with Kurr's vomit
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: in his back seat, a broken window, lost fears for
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: the night.
• 23:31
  Speaker 15: I actually think that she was trying to express how
• 23:33
  Speaker 15: vulnerable that she felt as a woman and as a
• 23:36
  Speaker 15: woman of color.
• 23:39
  Speaker 9: In that particular situation.
• 23:40
  Speaker 15: And you know, I don't think she felt that she
• 23:43
  Speaker 15: was being heard or there was any empathy or acknowledgment
• 23:47
  Speaker 15: of that at all.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Now, if you're wondering where this absurd idea comes from
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: that whites can't also be the victim of racism. Well,
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: it's from books like this one from a South African
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: politician blacks can't be racist. Well this one from our
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: own race baiting senator Lydia Thorpe a Sam Kerr defender.
• 24:08
  Speaker 13: Racism is about race.
• 24:11
  Speaker 12: We cannot be racist to white people.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: All this from race obsessed will Be Goldberg, who even
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: claimed that Nazis, the Nazis could not be racist through
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: white Jews, even when killing six million of them.
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: The Holocaust isn't about race.
• 24:29
  Speaker 9: These are white groups of people. Well, how do we
• 24:32
  Speaker 9: have to blame and missing the point?
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: Join me is the panel. Will Kingston hosts of Fire
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: at Will, the podcast from the Spectator on politics and culture,
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: and Scars host Danika di Georgia Now with her own
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: show here every Friday at five pm. Will. Let's not
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: say whether the curve was or was not racist. That's
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: for the court. She's going to be decided story tonight.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: But in principle, can some with some Indian ancestry be
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: racist to a white or not?
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, of course they can. I had to have a
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: right chuckle listening to that ABC listener. Excuse me, because
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: white people now are quite literally a minority in London, Andrew.
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: But that's by the bye. This just goes to show
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: how successful leftist activists have been in changing how we
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: look at the concept of racism from being something based
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: off and immutable characteristic to something which is based on
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: historical oppression, that oppressor, the oppressed matrix. Now not for
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: the first time on this show, I will just say
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: thank God for Donald Trump, because a big part of
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: his agenda has been getting us back to that common
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: sense position on racial gender minority issues where we are
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: color blind and merit based. And I can only hope
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: that that lead that is now coming from the US
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: starts to slowly filter through to the institutions across the
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: Western world because they have been corrupted by this awful
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: new radical ideology.
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: Well, I think if it's all about minorities, then it
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: suggests that what Sam Kerr said to this policeman policeman
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: would be racist in Australia, but not racist if she
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: said in India, which seems to me a little absurd.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: Here are more excuses on the ABC today.
• 26:25
  Speaker 6: When somebody is drunk, then you know you have to
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: really take that into consideration, and that she's not saying
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: it when she's sober. I just really, you know, sort
• 26:34
  Speaker 6: of want to point out that Sam was drunk, and
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: you know, really the police could have de escalated that situation,
• 26:42
  Speaker 6: you know, sort of much more sympathetically.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: So Deniki did Georgia. We now have two excuses on
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: the ABC. A she was drunk and B she's not
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: white so she can't be racist. What do you make
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: of those excuses?
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, how pathetic Andrew, Oh, she was drunk. You know,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: person's drunk or it just passes it off as an
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: accident or a whoop see moment as opposed to something
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: that could possibly be serious. I'm just surprised that there
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: wasn't any pushback on the ABC to that ridiculous commentary.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: If someone punched someone in the face, knock them unconscious,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: Oh they were drunk, so it doesn't matter.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: It's just absolutely ridiculous.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: But look, there's this reverse racism that is just pedaling
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: out now across the world, and the left love to
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: peddle this narrative that racism is terrible unless, of course,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: it's against white people, and they make white people out
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: to have status and power and non white people the
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: exact opposite, and they're obsessed with guilt. They're obsessed with
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: making themselves feel better. And we'll give you an example
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: here in Australia, Andrew. You know Invasion Day protests across
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: the country when you've got white people chanting always was,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: always will be and telling you, as a fellow white person,
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: that you should be ashamed. And you know, we'll mentioned
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump changing the world. Thank goodness, he has implemented
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: policies on DEI because DEI, in my opinion, he's a
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: form of racism. You're told you're white, you won't get
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: the job, You're not going to get the promotion. We're
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: going to give it to someone else, not because they're
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: better than you, but because they're a person of color.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: We see it every single day in society. So yeah,
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: it is racist.
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: Well, it's funny those the policies that you mentioned, diverse,
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: inequity and inclusion I actually discriminate most against Asian students,
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: believe it or not, who have taken legal election in America.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: But will to go back to the question that I
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: ended up asked the Sophie at the end, this theory
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: is that it's actually about power, that you can't be
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: racist if you don't have power, you can be racist
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: if you do whites of power. Therefore, you know you
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: can't be racist against the white in this situation, a
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: superstar apt fleet with a poor cabby.
• 29:02
  Speaker 16: Three a m.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: In the morning or after midnight, trying to earn a buck,
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: having someone throw up in his cab destroy it, and
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: then you know, I presume he couldn't work for the
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: rest of the night. Who exactly has the power here?
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a really good point, and I think this
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: is why it's really important for us to actually be
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: speaking about this case, because it is the perfect example
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: of why this ideology doesn't stack up. There is no
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: world in which our Kurt does not have more economic,
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: more social power, more connections than both the police officer
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: and the cab driver. So I think it highlights the
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: inconsistencies really nicely, and it's why we need to push
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: back on just how silly it is. The part of
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: all that in the past it may have actually had
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: more cachet when there were really genuine levels of disadvantage
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: between races, say fifty years ago, one hundred years ago,
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: But in this day and age, it just doesn't stack
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: up as a for the real type of disadvantage, which
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: is economic disadvantage in those instances, you'll find that white
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: people in the instances, of course, are going to be
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: more disavantaged than other races.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: And yes, and particularly when there's so much intermarriage, et
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. I mean, who doesn't have something
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: of some other race behind them, you know whatever. I
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: don't know, it's increasingly common with so much shape shifting
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: going on, race shifting, it's becoming a weapon more than
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: anything else. Excuse meanwhile to the resignation today of oh no, actually,
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: I want to circle back to something you said to
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: Nika about the drunkenness excuse. This is why I don't
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: like public drunkenness being not considered any more a crime
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: in some jurisdictions, because if you get drunk and then
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: you do terrible things and people use that, oh I
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: was drunk, you've got to, you know, give me an excuse.
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: You should know you're liable to do terrible things when drunk.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: So that's why getting drunk should be a crime when
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: you do them. Should they should it not?
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, absolutely, Andrew, because it completely diminishes crimes. I mean,
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: it goes back to my point earlier. What happens if,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: for instance, you you get absolutely plastered, you are blind drunk,
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: and you've gotten a knife and you've got and stab someone.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: That person's died. Would it stack up in a courtroom
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: to then say, oh, you know what, look he had
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: a bit too much to drink, he was a little
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: bit drunk. We'll just pass it off. And this is
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: the problem before it has I agree, that's a problem.
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: That's the point.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: It has been, has been you before. But and that
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: and that is a complete failure I think of the
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: justice system itself, Andrew, but we should never ever use
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: disorderly drunken behavior as an excuse to then go out
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: and commit alleged crimes or do really bad things. It's
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: it's unacceptable and you should we should never be accepting
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: that full stop.
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: No, No one would be saying an our real player.
• 32:02
  Speaker 10: Yeah, well I think that's true to the resignation today
• 32:07
  Speaker 10: of New South Wales Transport Minister Joe Halen, she's of
• 32:11
  Speaker 10: Labour's socialist left and Anthony albadiezi Allo.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: Now I would have thought, you know you're very keen,
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: you know you're with the people, But no, no, it
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: is all George orwell animal farm Yesterday she was caught
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: out getting her chauffeur driver to take her in a
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: ministerial car her and the children from Caves Beach, was
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: one hundred kilometers north of Sydney to the city for
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: for weekend sporting events. She said sorry, but today she
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: was found to have also got the driver to take
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: her and for instance, a winerer in the thirteen hour,
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: four hundred and forty six kilometer round trip for the driver.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: This sense of entitlement is staggering to me. Here she
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: is saying, oh, look, look, I'm sorry, but I've got
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: to go now.
• 32:56
  Speaker 17: I've let the public down and I'm very sorry for that.
• 33:01
  Speaker 17: We were elected to be better than the last government.
• 33:06
  Speaker 17: This morning I've told the Premier that I will resign
• 33:09
  Speaker 17: my position as Minister for Transport.
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: A short summation Will Kingston.
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: She's been done just as much for stupidity as for
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: breaking the rules and drew. The easiest way to get
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: one of these politicians, if you're a cadet journalist is
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: to go through the travel logs. You'll probably find something
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: they should know. They're going to get caught if this
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: sort of stuff comes up. So yeah, she's been done
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: for stupidy.
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: Absolutely and I'll say it again oink oink d Nika
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: Di Giorgio, Will Kingston, thank you very much to you both.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: After the break, the Greens asked Parliament today to stop
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: the Donald Trump style from taking off here as well.
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: Why well, you will see perhaps when you see what
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump has just scrapped, maybe then you'll understand why
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: the Greens are sweating. The Greens are freaking Donald Trump,
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: and so they today put this ludicrous motion to Parliament
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: saying the election of President Trump is a threat to
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: Australia and the world, including his attacks on human rights
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: and democracy and climate change, the toxic influence of billionaires
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: and oh my goodness, and we must do everything we
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: can to stop Trump style politics coming to Australia. What
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: kind of Trump style politics is it exactly against? Could
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: it also include this? Trump has for now shut down USAID,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: which sends us AID money as soon as USAIDE money
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: around the world. Needon Musk, one of these billionaires the
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: Greens are against, was asked by Trump to cut government waste,
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: said USAID is beyond repair, and Trump's spokesman actually gave
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: examples of what it was funding. The list sounds just
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: the kind of thing our government arts and farm affhaes
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: bureaucrats also fund with their money.
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: These are some of the insane priorities that that organization
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: has been spending money on. One point five million dollars
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: to advance DEI in Serbia's workplaces, seventy thousand for a
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: production of a DEI musical in Ireland, forty seven thousand
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: for a transgender opera in Colombia, thirty two thousand for
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: a transgender comic book in Peru. I don't know about you,
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: but as an American taxpayer, I don't want my dollars
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: going towards this crap, and I know the American people
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: don't either. And that's exactly what Elon Musk has been
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: tasked by President Trump to do to get the fraud,
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: waste and abuse out of our federal government.
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: No wonder the Greens petrified that Trump style politics might
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: come here, maybe influence the Oppositions News spokesman on cutting
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: Weiss just into Nampa, jimper Price, she might get similar
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: ideas if we elect the coalition government. Join me every
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: Tuesday showing spasit on Trump spokesman when he was first President,
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: Sean Spice are always great to see you. What is
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: this Trump style that our Greens don't like?
• 36:11
  Speaker 16: I don't know, maybe accountability. I mean, look, here's the
• 36:14
  Speaker 16: thing Caroline Lovett, the list that she read off of anything. Hopefully,
• 36:18
  Speaker 16: maybe they're just jealous. I think, if anything, the folks
• 36:21
  Speaker 16: down under should be upset that they got left off
• 36:23
  Speaker 16: this list. But it sounds like we're handing out cash
• 36:26
  Speaker 16: to everybody to do a bunch of work policies.
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: But it's Niccholin dimes stuff people will say. But I
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: think it's also the very thing that gets taxpayers so
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: frustrated that if somehow government is throwing out things like that,
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: all right, nichol and dime, what are they doing with
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: the big decisions like some of these global warming programs.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: I think going through government spending is the least that
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: politicians can incoming politicians can do.
• 36:57
  Speaker 16: There's a level of respect Andrew that I think I'm
• 37:00
  Speaker 16: at least excited to see, because if you care about
• 37:04
  Speaker 16: the pennies in the nickels and dimes and the hundreds
• 37:07
  Speaker 16: of thousands and the millions, at some point you start
• 37:10
  Speaker 16: to care about the trillions. And I get that initially
• 37:14
  Speaker 16: it might not add up to you know, a huge
• 37:17
  Speaker 16: chunk when it looks at the entirety of our federal budget.
• 37:20
  Speaker 16: But I do think there's.
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: A level of respect.
• 37:22
  Speaker 16: I work hard to and I get it. Taxes are
• 37:24
  Speaker 16: part of life here in this country mostly you know,
• 37:27
  Speaker 16: in all free countries. But I don't want to waste
• 37:30
  Speaker 16: my money. I don't want to be something that I
• 37:32
  Speaker 16: can't spend on my family or save for my future
• 37:36
  Speaker 16: and know that the government is wasting it. And that
• 37:38
  Speaker 16: to me is insulting to work every day to send
• 37:40
  Speaker 16: money into the US government and to know that they're
• 37:43
  Speaker 16: throwing it around willy nilly on silly programs like that.
• 37:48
  Speaker 16: To your point, if you're willing to do it with
• 37:49
  Speaker 16: one hundred thousand, a million dollars, ten million dollars, what's
• 37:52
  Speaker 16: stopping you from a billion and a trillion? And I
• 37:54
  Speaker 16: think what's scaring people, Andrew, and this is you put
• 37:58
  Speaker 16: your finger on it. It's not just the Greens, it's
• 38:00
  Speaker 16: the left in this country as well that I think
• 38:03
  Speaker 16: have been getting away with throwing that kind of money around.
• 38:06
  Speaker 16: And you know it is it is may not be
• 38:08
  Speaker 16: the biggest dollars in the world, but if you're an
• 38:10
  Speaker 16: organization on the left and they start throwing a few
• 38:12
  Speaker 16: hundred thousand dollars here or there to advance some woke policies.
• 38:15
  Speaker 16: It may be a big amount to your organization. A
• 38:18
  Speaker 16: few hundred thousand dollars there, a million here, a million there.
• 38:21
  Speaker 16: It buys you five or six people that can go
• 38:23
  Speaker 16: out and advance the woke agenda throughout the country here
• 38:27
  Speaker 16: and there, you know, far and wide. And so I
• 38:29
  Speaker 16: think that to some degree, the idea that we are
• 38:33
  Speaker 16: finally exposing it what's going on in government, the waste
• 38:37
  Speaker 16: of money, the conflicts of interest, the duplicity, the inefficiencies
• 38:43
  Speaker 16: that all fund the left, because that's the bottom line,
• 38:46
  Speaker 16: is it all go somewhere and it's not going to
• 38:48
  Speaker 16: write leaning causes or what have you. This is all
• 38:51
  Speaker 16: left wing propaganda and that they're handing out as a
• 38:54
  Speaker 16: favor factory to their friends.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: Look, I think absolutely correct, it's not just the waste.
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: I think what we're seeing and our funding bodies here
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: exactly the same. How the left managed to hijack so
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: much of their fund this funding, public money to keep
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: alive their cause. As we see it on our ABC
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: government broadcast, we see it on the SBS, we see
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: it in our universities funding Muslim radicals, for instance. It's
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: really quite extraordinary. I think that is really what's being exposed,
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: and I think our Greens won't want it exposed. Here now,
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump looking at the bigger things that has been
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: busy within these first couple of weeks. Here's shock and
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: all campaign shorn, already delivering results that could save American lives,
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: I said last night on the show. Trump has hit
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: Canada Mexico chain with tarists complaining about other things fentanyl,
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: illegal immigrants coming across America's borders. Bang. Canada's Prime Minister
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: Trudeau says, I'm going to have ten thousand frontline personnel
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: on the US border to deal with this. On the
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: point of fentanyl sar, I'm going to have cartels as terrorists.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: I'm going to launch a Canada US Joint Strakeforce to
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: combat organized crime, fencinal money laundry. Mexico also, suddenly it
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: can do something, has promised to send ten thousand troops
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: to guard the US southern border. Here it's Donald Trump.
• 40:21
  Speaker 14: But we have to stop fentanyl from coming in, whether
• 40:24
  Speaker 14: I like somebody or not, and we have to stop
• 40:26
  Speaker 14: the illegal aliens from coming in.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: I think we've lost two hundred thousand people.
• 40:31
  Speaker 14: On average a year for many years, much higher than
• 40:33
  Speaker 14: one hundred thousand, could be even closer to three hundred thousand.
• 40:37
  Speaker 14: And they've agreed to put in ten thousand soldiers permanently
• 40:43
  Speaker 14: like forever, ten thousand soldiers at their side of the
• 40:46
  Speaker 14: border and stop fentanyl and illegal aliens from coming into
• 40:49
  Speaker 14: our country.
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: Seawan, and now the tariffs on those countries are going
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: to be delayed for a month while they try to
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: sort out their differences. Maybe they weren't gone at all.
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: What does this tell you, this instant reaction, this instant
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: guided to America.
• 41:07
  Speaker 16: It tells me that business as usual is over and
• 41:10
  Speaker 16: that there's a president who's demanding accountability and action. I mean,
• 41:13
  Speaker 16: let's go back a couple steps. Andrew Right, Columbia says,
• 41:16
  Speaker 16: we're not going to take our citizens back that you're
• 41:20
  Speaker 16: expelling because they're criminals living in your country, which they've
• 41:23
  Speaker 16: done for years. President Trump says, great, I'm gonna slap
• 41:26
  Speaker 16: tariffs on you, Columbia. Benzani takes the people back. Panama
• 41:30
  Speaker 16: announces that they will end the Belton Road initiatives with
• 41:33
  Speaker 16: China that they were one of the first to sign
• 41:35
  Speaker 16: on to They're ending that that's great for not just America,
• 41:38
  Speaker 16: but for the world, to stop Chinese dominance through the
• 41:42
  Speaker 16: Panama Canal. He does it with Mexico, he does it
• 41:44
  Speaker 16: with Canada the same way. It shows the difference. Leadership matters, right,
• 41:50
  Speaker 16: This is what the American people like I get. Some
• 41:54
  Speaker 16: people in Washington were all up in arms today wringing
• 41:57
  Speaker 16: their hands and crying about I don't like his tactics.
• 42:01
  Speaker 16: You know what, I care about results, And you can
• 42:04
  Speaker 16: play the game and say Joe Biden told us that
• 42:06
  Speaker 16: he knew everyone in the world. He had more knowledge
• 42:09
  Speaker 16: and understanding of foreign leaders than anyone ever could.
• 42:12
  Speaker 4: Look where that got us.
• 42:14
  Speaker 16: I want us to be friends, you know, with our
• 42:18
  Speaker 16: allies and get along with them. But at the end
• 42:19
  Speaker 16: of the day, I want us to make sure that
• 42:21
  Speaker 16: we protect our interest, make sure that we are a
• 42:24
  Speaker 16: safe country. We're a prosperous country. But I don't think
• 42:27
  Speaker 16: we should be taking advantage of anymore. And I think
• 42:28
  Speaker 16: Donald Trump finally shows that a leader who fights will
• 42:33
  Speaker 16: get results.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: I think Americans are going to like what they see here.
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, you put it well. You might not like
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: his tactics, but the results are on the board showing SPOSA.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: Thank you so much for your time.
• 42:48
  Speaker 16: As always, thank you Andrew appreciate it.
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: After the break, the Prime Minister's lightest in cults to
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: Jez just when he was trying so hard to be
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: nice the avan. He's the Governor's now scrambling after help.
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: Let this due hatred explode all over the country. And
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: the latest Essential poll says this has really become a
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: big issue. And alan Is He spoke then during emotion
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: in parliament today to condemn anti Semitism. I spoke very seriously,
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: but he seemed to be in a bit of a hurry.
• 43:24
  Speaker 18: Anti Semitism stands in bile opposition to all we are
• 43:27
  Speaker 18: as a nation and all that we have built together
• 43:30
  Speaker 18: over generations. It has no place in our nation and
• 43:34
  Speaker 18: we'll combat it with the full force of our laws
• 43:36
  Speaker 18: and with total commitment from every level of government.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: But watch this when the opposition leader rose to also
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: speak about this due hatred Albani has he led a
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: mass walkout of labor and peace. So much for showing
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: a united front on this critical issue. And he left
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: Attorney General Mark Drafers behind, turned his back on Dutton
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: and chatted away as Dutton spoke, and I think this
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: shows how seriously Labor takes this issue or not to
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: my guest, Tony Lupton is a former Victorian Labor politicians
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: watched as the Greens helped whip up this due hatred
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: while Labour sat on his hands. He's discussed it's now
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: torn up his Labor membership and is running as an
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: independent in the Bay election this weekend for his old
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: seat of Paran, now a safe Green seat. Labor is
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: not running a candidate, and Lupton is swapping preferences with
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: the Liberal candidate, Rachel Westaway to try to take the
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: seat off the Greens to punish them. He joins me again,
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: Tony Lupton, great to see you again. I'm hearing good things,
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: but you never know. What do you think your chances
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: are looking like of bumping off the Greens?
• 44:51
  Speaker 5: Well, Andrew, I think I've got a reasonable chance now.
• 44:55
  Speaker 5: The feedback on the pre poll births is really very
• 44:58
  Speaker 5: positive and our team's very very excited and very upbeat
• 45:02
  Speaker 5: about it. And I don't think this seat of Paran
• 45:05
  Speaker 5: is in fact a safe Green seat. The only resion
• 45:08
  Speaker 5: the Greens won by the margin they did at the
• 45:11
  Speaker 5: last date election was because the Labor Party preferenced them.
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: What do your old labor colleges think of you now
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: doing this and preferencing the Liberals to hopefully together beat
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: the Greens.
• 45:28
  Speaker 5: Well, I've got a whole lot of my former Labor
• 45:32
  Speaker 5: MP colleagues helping me on the pre pole birds, and
• 45:34
  Speaker 5: they'll be out there also on Saturday helping me on
• 45:37
  Speaker 5: the polling birds. I've got enormous support from Labor Party members,
• 45:42
  Speaker 5: from Labor Party supporters, from former Greens, and even from
• 45:47
  Speaker 5: disillusioned or disaffected Liberals who just want to see the
• 45:51
  Speaker 5: end of the Greens in Peran.
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: That's very interesting, Tony, But what does that tell you
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: if that's the feeling even among your labor colleague or
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: some of them. Should Anthony Albanesi now also make preference
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: steals in the next election, the federal one with the
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: Liberals and not the Greens, not help get the Greens elected,
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: but punish them also for their role in inciting helping
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: to incite this due hatred.
• 46:18
  Speaker 5: Absolutely, there's no doubt about that in my mind, Andrew.
• 46:21
  Speaker 5: The Labor Party hierarchy has got to get the message
• 46:27
  Speaker 5: sent to it that the Liberal Party might be the
• 46:29
  Speaker 5: Labor Party's opponents, but their enemy is the Greens. And
• 46:33
  Speaker 5: that's the message that I think the Labor Party needs
• 46:36
  Speaker 5: to understand. There's a great degree of feeling among the
• 46:40
  Speaker 5: Labor supporters and the Labor membership that the Greens are
• 46:43
  Speaker 5: effectively destroying the Labor Party. And my view is that
• 46:48
  Speaker 5: we need in this country a set of left party
• 46:50
  Speaker 5: and a center right party in the mainstream in order
• 46:53
  Speaker 5: to preserve the sort of liberal democracy that we support
• 46:57
  Speaker 5: and that has been so instrumental in making Australia the
• 47:00
  Speaker 5: terrific country it is.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but Labour would say, Tony, you're being an idolist.
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: The Greens will help us win a government for the Liberals. Well,
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: we don't want to help the Liberals to be the
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: government instead.
• 47:16
  Speaker 5: I would love to be called an idealist by the
• 47:18
  Speaker 5: Labor Party hierarchy that didn't want to run a candidate
• 47:21
  Speaker 5: in prand But the fact of the matter is, Andrew,
• 47:25
  Speaker 5: I think that the Labor Party is in fact damaging
• 47:28
  Speaker 5: its own standing in the community by the way that
• 47:30
  Speaker 5: it's acting. There are reasons why the Labor Party's primary
• 47:34
  Speaker 5: voters down in the low twenties. It's really not connected
• 47:37
  Speaker 5: well enough with the community. In fact, it's not really
• 47:39
  Speaker 5: connected enough with its own membership, and it's through things
• 47:43
  Speaker 5: like that that it's leading it into a situation where
• 47:47
  Speaker 5: it's likely to have to depend on the Greens rather
• 47:52
  Speaker 5: than fight them off and be able to govern in
• 47:54
  Speaker 5: its own right. That's what I want them to do.
• 47:56
  Speaker 5: I want them to fight the Greens, push that Green
• 47:58
  Speaker 5: wave back and rebuild the traditional sort of labor party
• 48:02
  Speaker 5: that I joined and that I was proud to be
• 48:04
  Speaker 5: a member of for many years, so that people in
• 48:07
  Speaker 5: Australia can have confidence in them that they're going to
• 48:09
  Speaker 5: be able to form a proper government and steer Australia
• 48:12
  Speaker 5: properly into the future. That way, people get a fair
• 48:16
  Speaker 5: choice between a good Labor party and a Liberal party
• 48:20
  Speaker 5: and they can make a choice about which government they want.
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: Great, great sum up, the summing up the attorney all
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: the best to you, Attorney Lupton, Thank you so much.
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: That's it from me. Sherry Markson is next. Good Night.
