Speaker 1: On scorn lives Ostrodia. This is the Wider Paney Show.
0:09
Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome to the Reader Panehy Show.
0:11
Speaker 3: Coming up tonight, the Victorian government is finally getting tough
0:14
Speaker 3: on crime by copying Queensland's adult crime Adult time laws.
0:20
Speaker 3: Nikata will join me to discuss the day's top headlines.
0:23
Speaker 3: The Great Douglas Murray will be here and we'll do
0:25
Speaker 3: a deep dive into the BBC's sad decline as a
0:30
Speaker 3: trusted broadcaster. Jack Houghton will unpack the latest controversy in
0:35
Speaker 3: broiling our taxpayer funded public broadcaster and C J. Pearson
0:40
Speaker 3: will have the latest news from the US and Left
0:43
Speaker 3: is losing. It features a bigot with a septum ring
0:47
Speaker 3: misusing the word fascist.
0:50
Speaker 4: Turning point, UNISA should not be here and they are
0:52
Speaker 4: like a fascist organization and nobody here agrees with what
0:56
Speaker 4: they are saying.
0:58
Speaker 3: We'll start in Victoria, where offenders age fourteen and above
1:01
Speaker 3: face possible life sentences under new laws. The Allen Labor
1:04
Speaker 3: government has announced to address ramp and youth crime dubbed
1:08
Speaker 3: adult Time for violent crime. Labour's new laws mark a
1:12
Speaker 3: major overhaul of the Victorian justice system and will mean
1:16
Speaker 3: anyone who is more than fourteen years of age and
1:18
Speaker 3: is charged with home invasion, carjackings, or intentionally or recklessly
1:23
Speaker 3: causing injury in circumstances of gross violence will face trial
1:28
Speaker 3: in the county court, not the children's court.
1:31
Speaker 2: The government insists the laws will be.
1:33
Speaker 3: Introduced by the end of the week, though it has
1:35
Speaker 3: not yet written the legislation. Joining me now for more
1:38
Speaker 3: on this is Menzi's Research Center.
1:41
Speaker 2: Senior fellow Nick Cator. Nick, it was only last month where.
1:45
Speaker 3: I called on the just into Alan government to emulate
1:48
Speaker 3: Queensland's successful adult time adult crime laws, and they seem
1:54
Speaker 3: to be doing just that.
1:56
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think we should call this the Panahi law.
1:58
Speaker 5: They're instituting that. Well done you and the Herald Sanna.
2:02
Speaker 5: You've been pointing this out for some time. You know,
2:05
Speaker 5: as many of us in my columns. You know, there's
2:07
Speaker 5: a simple way to reduce the amount of crime in Melbourne,
2:11
Speaker 5: and that's to put more criminals in jail for longer.
2:14
Speaker 5: It's not actually rocket science. But you know, as we
2:17
Speaker 5: pointed out before, Victoria has the lowest rates of imprisonment
2:22
Speaker 5: for these sort of offenses of any state in the country.
2:26
Speaker 5: It also has the emptiest prisons, and they're particularly bad
2:29
Speaker 5: at jailing anybody under I don't know, forty five or something.
2:34
Speaker 5: They seem to go very soft time they get somebody
2:36
Speaker 5: of a tender age in there. But these are serious
2:39
Speaker 5: crimes we're talking about, and frightening crimes in the use
2:43
Speaker 5: of violence. Home invasion is a horrible thing to experience,
2:47
Speaker 5: whether or not violence is used, and so is carjacking.
2:52
Speaker 5: It's a very intrusive way to behave and we don't
2:55
Speaker 5: want these fourteen year olds on the road by the way,
2:58
Speaker 5: I don't know, possibly going to a fourteen in Victoria,
3:02
Speaker 5: but of course not, none of these kids can actually drive.
3:05
Speaker 5: So yes, we need laws that keep these kids in jail,
3:11
Speaker 5: keep them in jail, and take away this presumption there
3:14
Speaker 5: is for bail as well, because you know you're not
3:19
Speaker 5: guilty because you've been arrested, but it's probably a good
3:21
Speaker 5: chance you are, right, So you want to reduce the
3:24
Speaker 5: amount of crime, take criminals off the street.
3:29
Speaker 3: Well, it's the just the repeated bail applications that are granted.
3:34
Speaker 2: You have people just.
3:36
Speaker 3: Getting out on bail, getting arrested, being before the courts,
3:39
Speaker 3: getting bail again, and it's just a sorry cycle. This
3:44
Speaker 3: is a big departure for the Victorian government. It wasn't
3:47
Speaker 3: too long ago they were talking about raising the age
3:50
Speaker 3: of criminal responsibility. Now they're introducing these harsh penalties for
3:57
Speaker 3: youth offenders as young as fourteen. I've gotten to say
4:00
Speaker 3: the Queensland adult crime adult time.
4:03
Speaker 2: Laws are far broader.
4:05
Speaker 3: The list of offenses there is far broader than what
4:10
Speaker 3: Victoria has, so I think that may have to tweak
4:13
Speaker 3: it further. Now to a controversial native title claim made
4:17
Speaker 3: by Victoria's we're injury people covering thousands of square kilometers
4:22
Speaker 3: of land across Melbourne and surrounds. Let's hear from one
4:26
Speaker 3: of the eleven applicants involved in this claim. This is
4:30
Speaker 3: war in juryman, Darcy Cohen Hunter. Why did you decide
4:35
Speaker 3: to launch this claim?
4:36
Speaker 5: Why is it extremely important to you and your people?
4:40
Speaker 6: I guess it's something that's been happening a long time
4:43
Speaker 6: in the making for generations, and it's important to us
4:47
Speaker 6: that we have a say in the lands and waters
4:50
Speaker 6: that we have been caring for for generations. And obviously
4:56
Speaker 6: this is incredibly proud moment for our mob. And yeah,
5:00
Speaker 6: it's about that recognition and the formal recognition, that is,
5:03
Speaker 6: and being able to practice our culture and have to
5:06
Speaker 6: say in the land.
5:11
Speaker 3: Nick Victoria has a permanent Indigenous voice, state based voice
5:16
Speaker 3: and treaty. We shouldn't be surprised that we've got cases
5:21
Speaker 3: like this happening. And it's not just this particular claim.
5:25
Speaker 2: There is six others before the courts.
5:29
Speaker 5: Well, that's right, you called him a Warren jury man.
5:32
Speaker 5: I think reason I think you've forgot the correct term
5:35
Speaker 5: is a proud Warren jury man. We always have to
5:37
Speaker 5: say proud. I'd like to said it comes before a fall.
5:40
Speaker 5: But with Victoria here, Yeah, we're dealing with Victoria here,
5:45
Speaker 5: and this will be taken seriously. It's probably a very
5:49
Speaker 5: good chance they'll get their claim. They'll be able to
5:52
Speaker 5: decide what you do with your parks, your recreational spaces,
5:56
Speaker 5: your aquatic centers, you know, anything that is owned by
6:00
Speaker 5: the government. Then they get to say they essentially get
6:04
Speaker 5: a land grab on this. It's completely against the spirit
6:09
Speaker 5: of the referendum. Last year we had land legislation, land
6:13
Speaker 5: rights legislation, which gives Aboriginal people Inferi at least control
6:18
Speaker 5: of more than half the land mass of Australia. They
6:22
Speaker 5: don't of course get it because it goes into the
6:24
Speaker 5: hands of land councils and individual Aboriginal people are not
6:27
Speaker 5: allowed to buy a plot of land to build a
6:29
Speaker 5: house if that's what they want to do. Because we
6:31
Speaker 5: have this strange idea that socialism is what provails in
6:35
Speaker 5: central Australia. But you know, where does it stop? I
6:39
Speaker 5: think that's the point most Australians will be asking. And
6:42
Speaker 5: one of the reasons the voice was defeated. One of
6:45
Speaker 5: the many reasons the voice was defeated with people just said, well,
6:48
Speaker 5: when does it stop? When do we reach reconciliation? When
6:51
Speaker 5: do these people turn around and say that's enough, You've
6:54
Speaker 5: done everything you can possibly do. We're happy now. Never,
6:57
Speaker 5: because this is activism.
7:01
Speaker 2: No, I think never is right there now.
7:03
Speaker 3: Monash University students have complained at their degrees exude whiteness.
7:10
Speaker 3: This is in a Monash Student Association survey of five
7:13
Speaker 3: hundred and seventy six students.
7:15
Speaker 2: The Student Union's Racism.
7:17
Speaker 3: And Diversity Report claims the university demonstrates and I quote
7:21
Speaker 3: here clear favoritism towards white students and racism because lecturers
7:28
Speaker 3: ask students to please speak.
7:30
Speaker 2: English and it has.
7:32
Speaker 3: Demanded the university undertake an immediate and comprehensive review of
7:36
Speaker 3: its curriculum across all faculties to identify and dismantle Eurocentric
7:42
Speaker 3: exclusionary practices. Nick, I'm not exactly sure what language other
7:48
Speaker 3: than English is acceptable at an Australian university.
7:54
Speaker 5: Well, we're in jury, I suppose in Melbourne. I don't know,
7:56
Speaker 5: you know better than I do. Look, this is absurd.
7:59
Speaker 5: Is the language of the country. We're doing people a
8:01
Speaker 5: disfavor if we don't insist they learn English and speak
8:04
Speaker 5: it very well, particularly if they're studying, you know, higher education.
8:09
Speaker 5: You've got to have a bit of a brain on
8:11
Speaker 5: if you can't study any course. You should not be
8:14
Speaker 5: able to study any course in Australian university without speaking English.
8:18
Speaker 5: The idea that English is somehow whiteness, you know. I
8:21
Speaker 5: mean this will cover as a lot of surprise to
8:23
Speaker 5: many of my Indian friends, who speak much better English
8:25
Speaker 5: than some of us. You know, a very good retentive
8:28
Speaker 5: to grammar and those sort of details. It is absurd.
8:32
Speaker 5: And I noticed that in another response, it was rather
8:35
Speaker 5: mixed response from students another group. Another student said, well, look,
8:39
Speaker 5: I go to class and everybody speaks Chinese, and when
8:42
Speaker 5: I asked to speak English, everybody tells me I'm being racist.
8:45
Speaker 5: You know, we have to have the It's challenging to
8:49
Speaker 5: have so many overseas students, but they should come here
8:52
Speaker 5: and speak English. We are doing them a great favor
8:56
Speaker 5: if they speak the language, which is the common language
8:59
Speaker 5: in most of the world. We're giving them a great
9:02
Speaker 5: helped speak good English.
9:07
Speaker 3: Well, we know why, the motivations for why some of
9:10
Speaker 3: them do their degrees here. But you would think the
9:14
Speaker 3: cost and the trouble you go to to study in
9:18
Speaker 3: Australia if you're an overseas students, like you said, one
9:21
Speaker 3: of the benefits is that you improve your English and
9:23
Speaker 3: you become fluent. Nikita, thank you so much for your
9:27
Speaker 3: time tonight.
9:28
Speaker 2: Joining me now.
9:29
Speaker 3: Is the author of groundbreaking works, international best sellers, including
9:33
Speaker 3: The Strange Death of Europe, The Madness of Crowds, The
9:36
Speaker 3: War on the West, and his latest on democracies and
9:39
Speaker 3: death cult. Douglas Murray let's get into the BBC the
9:44
Speaker 3: Trump scandal. It's not isolated, it's not a simple misjudgment.
9:49
Speaker 3: But there are plenty in the UK, including journalists and
9:52
Speaker 3: editor Kevin McGuire who claim otherwise.
9:57
Speaker 7: Now, I am no defender of Trump, but I'm no
9:59
Speaker 7: defender of the li lousey bent journalism either, And I'm
10:02
Speaker 7: sorry that Panorama documentary was lousy.
10:04
Speaker 5: Ben Trump was.
10:08
Speaker 7: A defender of the Proud Boys and white supremacistologized in
10:12
Speaker 7: the fact you you were taking right, you were taking
10:16
Speaker 7: a twelve to fifteen second clip in a full, full program,
10:22
Speaker 7: very full program that was broadcast a year ago. And
10:26
Speaker 7: I'm not aware of any big public complaints about about it.
10:31
Speaker 2: Douglas, what's your response to that.
10:36
Speaker 8: Well, Kevin McGuire in the UK is quite well known
10:39
Speaker 8: as a sort of left wing blow hard, and what
10:43
Speaker 8: he said there just adds insult injury. There really is
10:47
Speaker 8: no defending what the BBC has been caught doing.
10:52
Speaker 1: What McGuire does.
10:53
Speaker 8: There is add to that offense by claiming that throwing
10:58
Speaker 8: out are they completely untrue smears against President Trump, like
11:02
Speaker 8: him supporting white supremacists. I mean, that's just the that's
11:06
Speaker 8: the very fine people hoax. But no, I mean, you know,
11:11
Speaker 8: he and other activists like him will you know, will keep.
11:15
Speaker 1: Spreading their untruths.
11:17
Speaker 8: But the fact is is that the BBC has been
11:20
Speaker 8: caught out in a set of really really disgraceful lies.
11:26
Speaker 8: The most prominent one is this to do with editing
11:30
Speaker 8: President Trump's speech on January the sixth, to suggest that
11:34
Speaker 8: he said that he would that the protesters has gathered
11:38
Speaker 8: together should engage in violence by fighting and of course
11:43
Speaker 8: all the terrible things that did go on that day.
11:46
Speaker 1: That was not what the.
11:47
Speaker 8: President said in his remarks, and Panoramas simply spliced two
11:51
Speaker 8: quotes together that that gave a very clear impression that
11:57
Speaker 8: President Trump was indeed urging go and fight.
12:00
Speaker 1: But that's not the only thing.
12:03
Speaker 8: This is such a huge download of errors by the
12:07
Speaker 8: BBC that there are other things that have got lost
12:09
Speaker 8: in it. One of them is the BBC's proven serial
12:15
Speaker 8: lies about Israel during the Israel hamas more unbelievable way
12:22
Speaker 8: in which BBC Arabic, which frankly should just be canned.
12:26
Speaker 1: It should be shuttered.
12:27
Speaker 8: The BBC has no control over it, just welcomes all
12:30
Speaker 8: these terrorist supporters all the time and gives their anti
12:34
Speaker 8: Israel views. And then of course there's the stuff on
12:38
Speaker 8: the trams issue as well.
12:40
Speaker 5: This is a.
12:40
Speaker 8: Really disgraceful moment for the BBC, and it's even more
12:44
Speaker 8: disgraceful that anyone would try to hide it.
12:48
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, you're one hundred percent right there. The BBC's
12:52
Speaker 3: institutional bias goes well beyond Donald Trump, goes beyond Nigel
12:56
Speaker 3: Farage and the courage of the middle age. Even a
13:01
Speaker 3: documentary about Bill Cosby a couple of years ago displays
13:06
Speaker 3: just how lost the BBC is.
13:08
Speaker 2: Watch some of the nonsense they ed.
13:12
Speaker 9: If we actually grappled with the fact that sex negativity
13:15
Speaker 9: is what causes this type of behavior, then we could
13:20
Speaker 9: create a world where, in a sex idellically sex positive world,
13:25
Speaker 9: someone is able to pay conscious women to come and
13:30
Speaker 9: be drugged so that I can get my kink out
13:33
Speaker 9: my fetish on having sex with unconscious people.
13:36
Speaker 2: There's a consensual way to do that.
13:38
Speaker 3: Well, there you go, a therapist promoting an idyllically sex
13:43
Speaker 3: positive world where men can just fulfill their fetishes by
13:48
Speaker 3: having sex with unconscious people.
13:50
Speaker 2: I mean, what am I even hearing, Douglas?
13:55
Speaker 1: Not just what are you hearing? What are you seeing?
13:57
Speaker 8: I do want it's momental sex positivity in any way? No,
14:03
Speaker 8: I mean, look, this is the BBC is so fantastically lost.
14:08
Speaker 8: By the way, there's a very clear reason for it.
14:11
Speaker 8: I'm not an enemy of the BBC. I'm a critic
14:14
Speaker 8: of it. I would like to see the BBC doing
14:17
Speaker 8: what it has boasted that it's doing, which it hasn't
14:19
Speaker 8: done for years, but which it has done at times
14:21
Speaker 8: in the past, which is to provide genuinely impartial journalism
14:27
Speaker 8: and a place where people can agree that there is
14:29
Speaker 8: a sort of non biased, fact based channel with all
14:36
Speaker 8: of its subsidiary channels which you can go to to
14:40
Speaker 8: get a trusted news source. And you know, it's just
14:43
Speaker 8: so characteristic of the BBC and certain other media in
14:47
Speaker 8: this age. They set up all these things like BBC
14:50
Speaker 8: Verify to try to prove fake news in other media
14:55
Speaker 8: and on social media and so on, but they're pumping
14:58
Speaker 8: out fake news, as the events of the last few
15:02
Speaker 8: days have shown. I mean, it's just completely unacceptable that
15:07
Speaker 8: an allegedly non biased platform would be shown to have
15:11
Speaker 8: extreme bias in so many cases. And the point about
15:15
Speaker 8: that that needs to come out is, as Lord Moore,
15:18
Speaker 8: Charles Moore pointed out the other day, the bias and
15:22
Speaker 8: the BBC always goes in one direction. You know, it's
15:27
Speaker 8: never it's never like accidentally biased in favor of Nigel Farage.
15:34
Speaker 8: It's never accidentally biased against illegal migrants. It's never accidentally
15:41
Speaker 8: biased in favor of biological reality.
15:44
Speaker 1: No, no, no, it's.
15:46
Speaker 8: Always the same metropolitan left wing tropes, the anti Israelism,
15:51
Speaker 8: the anti Trumpism.
15:53
Speaker 1: And so on.
15:53
Speaker 8: And it's because these journalists at the BBC, which used
15:57
Speaker 8: to be I stress again, it used to be a
15:59
Speaker 8: real bastion. There were serious reporters, fact checkers, editors, presenters
16:04
Speaker 8: and much more. It's a place which represents one particular
16:09
Speaker 8: viewpoint and they have the right to do that if
16:12
Speaker 8: they want to become a private, privately owned company and
16:17
Speaker 8: not take attacks from every household in the UK that
16:21
Speaker 8: owns the television in order to push this as being
16:25
Speaker 8: a mainstream it's it's it's it's so well documented now
16:31
Speaker 8: this one directional bias. And I hope that what we've
16:34
Speaker 8: seen with the resignation of the director general and the
16:36
Speaker 8: head of News isn't thought to be just the solution
16:40
Speaker 8: to the problem.
16:40
Speaker 1: It isn't. The problem is institutional in.
16:43
Speaker 8: The BBC until it is a safe space for conservative
16:48
Speaker 8: minded journalists and others to discuss openly and editorial meetings
16:52
Speaker 8: and elsewhere the sorts of things that they should be covering,
16:55
Speaker 8: then it has no right to claim impartiality.
17:00
Speaker 3: Well, it has a huge number of staff, huge number
17:04
Speaker 3: of journalists, producers. How many of them are conservative? How
17:09
Speaker 3: many of the ones who have programs, who are hosts
17:12
Speaker 3: or anchors on radio, on television are conservatives. It's very
17:17
Speaker 3: easy just to determine.
17:19
Speaker 2: That the bias there.
17:20
Speaker 3: And as you said, they're taxpayer funded, so they have
17:23
Speaker 3: a charter.
17:24
Speaker 2: They're obliged to be balanced.
17:27
Speaker 3: And when it comes to biological reality, as you mentioned
17:30
Speaker 3: the trans issue, Douglas, they're not much better there either,
17:34
Speaker 3: are they.
17:36
Speaker 5: No?
17:36
Speaker 1: I mean it's on all of these issues.
17:38
Speaker 5: You know.
17:39
Speaker 8: Recently one of the newscasters got into some trouble because
17:43
Speaker 8: she had to read out a line about what was
17:45
Speaker 8: it birthing people? And and she sort of said women,
17:50
Speaker 8: you know, slightly rolled her eyes and got into trouble
17:52
Speaker 8: for that.
17:55
Speaker 1: You know, it all goes back to that thing you
17:57
Speaker 1: just mentioned, Rita.
17:59
Speaker 8: How many non left wing liberals are in the BBC.
18:04
Speaker 8: I don't actually know now if there are any. Some
18:07
Speaker 8: twenty years ago I knew some.
18:09
Speaker 1: I used to get together with some of them socially
18:12
Speaker 1: out of ours.
18:13
Speaker 8: I used to joke to them that the small group
18:16
Speaker 8: of conservatives in the BBC and we used to meet
18:18
Speaker 8: in a pub or a bar and talk about things.
18:21
Speaker 8: They used to joke that they behaved nineteen fifties homosexuals.
18:25
Speaker 1: You know, they had to have a sort.
18:27
Speaker 8: Of secret code and you hope that no one at
18:31
Speaker 8: work could guess their dirty little.
18:33
Speaker 1: Secret and so on. But that's just appalling.
18:37
Speaker 8: You know, at least fifty percent of the country have
18:40
Speaker 8: no representation in the editorial process of presenting and much more.
18:46
Speaker 8: And again you can tell the one directional bias from
18:49
Speaker 8: the fact that when BBC presenters and others leave, like
18:54
Speaker 8: there's a group of them used to be at Newsnight,
18:56
Speaker 8: they left and set up their own sort of podcast.
18:58
Speaker 8: What is the thing they do once the guardrails of
19:01
Speaker 8: the pretense of impartiality you're off. They're all campaigning anti Trump,
19:06
Speaker 8: anti conservative, anti Tory, left wing activists. It's always like
19:11
Speaker 8: that when they leave the BBC, the thin veneer that
19:16
Speaker 8: they had whilst they are at it completely disappears.
19:19
Speaker 1: And I'm afraid that's still going on.
19:21
Speaker 8: You have presenters like Nick Robinson, a well known leftist
19:24
Speaker 8: and doesn't really manage to hide it on air, extremely
19:28
Speaker 8: disagreeable to any Conservatives interviewing people by Nick Robinson are
19:31
Speaker 8: trying to cover this up even now this week by
19:34
Speaker 8: pretending they're sort of no problem here really, So I
19:37
Speaker 8: don't see any signing the BBC's actually going to reform.
19:42
Speaker 10: You know.
19:43
Speaker 3: One of the things I love about social media, particularly
19:46
Speaker 3: x or Twitter as it used to be called, is
19:49
Speaker 3: the way it has removed that veneer because you have
19:51
Speaker 3: these individuals on social media putting out their opinions and
19:55
Speaker 3: then you can see why they report the way they do.
19:59
Speaker 3: And it's one thing to in the opinion game, like
20:01
Speaker 3: you and I are in a state our opinions, but
20:03
Speaker 3: we're supposed to be a news reporter and completely impartial.
20:07
Speaker 2: It's a different thing.
20:09
Speaker 3: And I just want to play a little clip about
20:11
Speaker 3: how the BBC covers trans issues now.
20:16
Speaker 11: Transgender woman's milk is just as good for babies as
20:19
Speaker 11: breast milk. That's according to a letter from the medical
20:22
Speaker 11: director her University Hospital Sussex and HS Foundation Trust. The
20:27
Speaker 11: claim was made as part of a response against campaign groups.
20:30
Speaker 11: The Trust referred to studies and the World Health Organization guidance,
20:34
Speaker 11: including one case which found what it called no observable
20:38
Speaker 11: effects in babies fed by induced lactation.
20:42
Speaker 2: Well, there you go, Douglas.
20:44
Speaker 3: I don't know, maybe you can take a cocktail of
20:45
Speaker 3: drugs and start lactating and feeding a child and it'll
20:50
Speaker 3: just be just as good as mother's milk. I mean, really,
20:53
Speaker 3: the institutional bias is not just how they present a
20:57
Speaker 3: story and how they frame it, but also it's often
21:00
Speaker 3: with the guest selection and the story selection itself.
21:05
Speaker 8: Yes, I mean in that case, I'm not going to
21:06
Speaker 8: take you up when you're offer of that cocktail if
21:08
Speaker 8: you don't mind reta.
21:10
Speaker 1: I prefer a straight up martini myself. But no, that's
21:14
Speaker 1: an absolutely classic one, isn't it. How could whatever the
21:18
Speaker 1: secretion is that.
21:19
Speaker 8: Comes out of somebody who's trying to change the pretense
21:25
Speaker 8: of biological sex, whatever cocktail it is that comes out,
21:30
Speaker 8: that will be pumped full of the hormones that the
21:33
Speaker 8: person in question is taking, How could that possibly be
21:37
Speaker 8: as good as mother's milk.
21:38
Speaker 1: This is the sort of thing which the.
21:40
Speaker 8: BBC will push as part of the trans extremist agenda,
21:44
Speaker 8: and they don't have to, you know, they could have
21:46
Speaker 8: taken a completely reasonable view all the whole way along,
21:49
Speaker 8: like some of us did, which is things like, you know,
21:52
Speaker 8: let's look into this a bit more, because it seems
21:55
Speaker 8: to be, you know that there's an awful lot to
21:58
Speaker 8: look into here, and let's not make up acts.
22:00
Speaker 1: But they want to because they want to push a
22:03
Speaker 1: particular agenda.
22:04
Speaker 8: And as I say, it's all in one direction repeatedly,
22:10
Speaker 8: it's never the it's never the gender woo woo critical thing.
22:14
Speaker 1: It falls into the direction of.
22:17
Speaker 8: It's all this kind of you know, and I'm amazed
22:20
Speaker 8: that she didn't end up saying or claiming that actually,
22:23
Speaker 8: trans lady estrogen testosterone milk is actually best and we
22:29
Speaker 8: should all gulp it down all day otherwise we're bigots.
22:34
Speaker 8: I mean, it's so preposterous and you can see through it,
22:38
Speaker 8: and this should have had a big halt to it
22:41
Speaker 8: a long time ago. But just one other thing on
22:43
Speaker 8: that readA you mentioned the guests absolutely the case as
22:48
Speaker 8: anyone can see. The last time I was on the BBC,
22:50
Speaker 8: I invited on on Newsnight and the presenter did what
22:52
Speaker 8: he always does with anyone who's not a card carrying
22:56
Speaker 8: a socialist, and he basically treats anyone of views as
23:02
Speaker 8: a convict a waiting sentence. They treat you like you're
23:08
Speaker 8: a month criminal in the dock and they've they've already
23:13
Speaker 8: decided you're guilty. And then meantime they'll get some radical
23:19
Speaker 8: left wing lawyer, you know, who represents, you know, the
23:22
Speaker 8: most disgraceful and disgusting people in society, and they'll present
23:25
Speaker 8: them as you know, like human rights champion and all that.
23:29
Speaker 1: Sort of thing.
23:30
Speaker 8: It's really transparent and it's really despicable for a broadcaster
23:34
Speaker 8: that pretends to have impartiality.
23:39
Speaker 3: Now, before you go, Remembrance Day was a yesterday and
23:43
Speaker 3: this clip of a one hundred year old World War
23:46
Speaker 3: Two veteran Alec Pinstone on Good Morning Britain went viral
23:50
Speaker 3: in recent days.
23:52
Speaker 2: Have a quick look.
23:53
Speaker 11: What does Remembrance Sunday mean for you?
23:56
Speaker 2: What is your message?
23:58
Speaker 12: My message is I can share in my mind's I
24:03
Speaker 12: rose and rose of white stones, of all the hundreds
24:07
Speaker 12: of my friends and everybody else that gave their lives
24:11
Speaker 12: for what the country of today.
24:16
Speaker 2: No, I'm sorry.
24:19
Speaker 12: The sacrifice wasn't worth the result that it is now.
24:23
Speaker 3: That's just so terribly sad, Douglas, that someone who sacrificed
24:28
Speaker 3: so much for Britain is so dismayed by what it
24:32
Speaker 3: has become.
24:34
Speaker 1: It was heartbreaking Rita seeing that.
24:38
Speaker 8: I don't know exactly, of course, what he was referring to,
24:41
Speaker 8: but I think we can all make some guesses.
24:44
Speaker 3: It's heartbreaking that he was talking also about a little
24:47
Speaker 3: bit about the lack of freedom in Britain.
24:50
Speaker 2: He mentioned freedom, and I.
24:52
Speaker 3: Thought that was interesting that he's noticing what is happening
24:56
Speaker 3: in modern Britain.
24:57
Speaker 8: Absolutely, I mean, unfortunately, the British people now live in
25:01
Speaker 8: a country, as you and I have discussed before, where
25:04
Speaker 8: the police will not bother to come and investigate a
25:07
Speaker 8: home robbery, but they turn up at thousand households every year,
25:13
Speaker 8: arresting people, putting people in handcuffs, charging people for things
25:18
Speaker 8: they've said on Twitter that go against the perceived narrative,
25:22
Speaker 8: the acceptable narrative, the BBC narrative, and much more. And
25:27
Speaker 8: you know, I don't think that that does mean that
25:29
Speaker 8: the sacrifices of our forebears were in vain, but my goodness,
25:33
Speaker 8: it's sad to see that interview, and my goodness, it's
25:36
Speaker 8: sad to see what Britain has become in recent years
25:41
Speaker 8: and just look at the fall off, just look at
25:43
Speaker 8: the fall off in political leadership from the people who
25:47
Speaker 8: led Great.
25:48
Speaker 1: Britain in the nineteen eties from all parties.
25:52
Speaker 8: By the way, consider an Actlye or a Churchill against
25:59
Speaker 8: what we have today. And yes, it's a very sad
26:03
Speaker 8: fall off. I'm deeply sad and when I saw that interview,
26:07
Speaker 8: but I hope that people watching it who have the
26:10
Speaker 8: same response we have are reminded by it that actually
26:14
Speaker 8: we have a great inheritance we need to sustain and
26:18
Speaker 8: not to just continue wrecking.
26:21
Speaker 2: Douglas Murray, thank you so much for your time.
26:24
Speaker 5: Thank you.
26:25
Speaker 2: Still to come.
26:26
Speaker 3: Left is Losing It plus the latest controversy in broiling
26:31
Speaker 3: the ABC.
26:32
Speaker 2: Jack Houghton joins me, next welcome back. We'll be diving
26:47
Speaker 2: into Lefties Losing.
26:48
Speaker 3: It soon, but first, the ABC is ignoring calls for
26:51
Speaker 3: an investigation into a Four Corners episode in twenty twenty
26:54
Speaker 3: one which.
26:55
Speaker 2: EDA doctored a misleading.
26:57
Speaker 3: Edit of Donald Trump's January sixth beach. It follows the
27:01
Speaker 3: resignation of the BBC's Director General Tim Davey and head
27:05
Speaker 3: of News Deborah Turnez for airing similarly doctored footage. This morning,
27:10
Speaker 3: an ABC spokesperson told the Australian newspaper that it would
27:14
Speaker 3: not be reviewing the Four Corners episode in question because
27:18
Speaker 3: the public Broadcaster's Umbertsman's.
27:20
Speaker 2: Office didn't exist at the time.
27:22
Speaker 3: Joining me now is Sky News Digital editor Jack Houghton.
27:26
Speaker 3: Jack the ABC also claimed that the quoting question from
27:30
Speaker 3: President Trump was used accurately by the ABC, did not
27:34
Speaker 3: change the meaning of that section of the speech, and
27:37
Speaker 3: it did not mislead the audience.
27:39
Speaker 2: Is that accurate?
27:41
Speaker 13: Well, if it didn't change the meaning, then why did
27:44
Speaker 13: the editors feel the need to cut out key parts
27:47
Speaker 13: of the speech which, for the record, for all the viewers,
27:50
Speaker 13: the parts that they cut out were Donald Trump saying,
27:53
Speaker 13: let's go down there to cheer on the politicians, So
27:57
Speaker 13: they take that part out and then they segue straight
27:59
Speaker 13: to do you have to fight for your country? And
28:02
Speaker 13: it conveyed it cannoted a meaning that there was this
28:06
Speaker 13: aggressive push by Donald Trump encouraging violence. Now, they can't
28:10
Speaker 13: possibly tell us whether or not that changes the meaning, because,
28:13
Speaker 13: as you point out, reader, they are refusing to even investigate.
28:17
Speaker 13: And that is the most extraordinary thing about this, the
28:20
Speaker 13: pathetic attempt by the ABC repeatedly whenever they're called into
28:24
Speaker 13: question to obsvacate to say that they've never done anything
28:28
Speaker 13: wrong and in this situation not investigate because the error
28:32
Speaker 13: isn't contemporaneous. I guess that's where they're going with it.
28:36
Speaker 13: But reader, as you know, nothing prevents them from going
28:38
Speaker 13: and looking back from content five years ago, ten years ago.
28:42
Speaker 13: If the on Budsman's powers, if their remit is so
28:45
Speaker 13: narrow that they can only look at things that happened
28:48
Speaker 13: during the time that it was set up, I think
28:51
Speaker 13: that Australians deserve to know. If that's what the ABC
28:54
Speaker 13: is actually saying, that everything that predates the on Budsman, well,
28:57
Speaker 13: that's fair game. We won't even look into it.
29:01
Speaker 3: And what about that three part Four Corners report that
29:05
Speaker 3: they had pushing Trump Russia conspiracy theories? They called it,
29:10
Speaker 3: and I quote here the story of the century, the
29:14
Speaker 3: election of US President Donald Trump and his ties to Russia.
29:18
Speaker 3: Have we had any sort of correction, any update when
29:22
Speaker 3: some of those conspiracy theories were comprehensively debunked.
29:28
Speaker 13: Yeah, Well, the allegation that was put forward by Four
29:30
Speaker 13: Corners was very simply and very specifically that Donald Trump
29:35
Speaker 13: colluded with Vladimir Putin to steal the election. It was
29:39
Speaker 13: the original election denial claim that was surfaced by the media,
29:44
Speaker 13: and you paid for it. And these people have never
29:46
Speaker 13: sought the correct to the record. We now know that
29:48
Speaker 13: the Komi and all the documents and the entire push
29:51
Speaker 13: to the American people to try and establish that this
29:55
Speaker 13: actually happened, we now know that it's completely bogus. There
29:59
Speaker 13: is no ever And of course Russia tries to influence
30:01
Speaker 13: every single election. They probably try and influence Australian election.
30:05
Speaker 13: But the specific narrative was that Donald Trump knowingly worked
30:09
Speaker 13: with the hand in Glove to attempt to steal an election.
30:13
Speaker 13: It was the biggest denial of democracy. There was no
30:16
Speaker 13: evidence for it other than these very strong allegations and
30:20
Speaker 13: for a story of the century. The ANBC seems to
30:22
Speaker 13: have gone very quiet on it.
30:26
Speaker 3: They did, but I think they spent plenty of money
30:28
Speaker 3: putting that three part series together. I mean Hillary Clinton's
30:32
Speaker 3: campaign office could have put that together for them, probably
30:34
Speaker 3: a lot cheaper, could have been less biased as well. Now,
30:38
Speaker 3: in addition to the Trump edit, the ABC was also
30:40
Speaker 3: caught out for altering a photograph of Senator Jane Hume
30:44
Speaker 3: holding a front page It's the Australian newspapers.
30:48
Speaker 2: It was holding this up in Parliament.
30:50
Speaker 3: The network initially tried to justify the edit as satire,
30:54
Speaker 3: but later conceded the montage was.
30:56
Speaker 2: Misleading and inaccurate.
30:59
Speaker 3: Liberal Senator Sarah Henderson has called for a formal Senate
31:02
Speaker 3: inquiry into the ABC, as she argued the national broadcaster
31:05
Speaker 3: has repeatedly failed to uphold its legal requirement to report
31:09
Speaker 3: news impartially and accurately.
31:13
Speaker 2: Jack, And that's the point.
31:15
Speaker 3: They have a charter to fulfill that our taxpayer funded
31:18
Speaker 3: They're different to every other media organization. They seem to
31:22
Speaker 3: ignore that charter each and every single day.
31:26
Speaker 13: Yeah, well, exactly that the charter is irrelevant if the
31:28
Speaker 13: on Budsman just refuses to look at things. And I
31:31
Speaker 13: also want to make the point satirical content produced by
31:35
Speaker 13: the ABC in a supposed news program, if that is
31:38
Speaker 13: the excuse, it's really convenient how the satire always seems
31:42
Speaker 13: to be against conservatives. And there is something that's a
31:44
Speaker 13: little bit more insidious about this story, because yes, they
31:48
Speaker 13: have shamelessly docted the photo of the Australian to put
31:50
Speaker 13: the Coalition MPs there, but the functional purpose for putting
31:55
Speaker 13: them there was to make fun of them for having
31:58
Speaker 13: the policy debate about net zero, So some dopey producer
32:01
Speaker 13: at the ABC, and I do think that's what this was,
32:04
Speaker 13: because David Spears throws to this grab, and he throws
32:07
Speaker 13: to this package with a straight face. So for them
32:10
Speaker 13: to say that this was satire, I genuinely think he
32:14
Speaker 13: had no idea they were going to do this and
32:15
Speaker 13: would have been just as shocked as anybody now and
32:17
Speaker 13: now seeing some of this coverage. But it goes to
32:20
Speaker 13: this package with this goofy music and this voice over
32:23
Speaker 13: saying that the Coalition just keeps trying to make the
32:26
Speaker 13: story about themselves. It was an effort to mock the coalition,
32:30
Speaker 13: and based on the people that I'm talking to in
32:32
Speaker 13: the coalition, this is kind of like a straw that
32:35
Speaker 13: broke the camel's back situation. It's so plain to see
32:39
Speaker 13: the bias that the ABC has against anybody that's in
32:42
Speaker 13: the Coalition that they're now feeling a little bit more
32:45
Speaker 13: comfortable to call for things such as a Senate inquiry,
32:47
Speaker 13: because I think that a lot of these senators are
32:49
Speaker 13: feeling we have no choice. There is a billion dollar
32:52
Speaker 13: a year organization which is actively working against us, and
32:57
Speaker 13: when you have a responsibility over this course.
33:00
Speaker 2: Jack.
33:02
Speaker 3: That has worked against the Coalition for years, and whilst
33:07
Speaker 3: in power, they do.
33:08
Speaker 2: Nothing about it.
33:10
Speaker 3: You know what, I've got limited sympathy for the Coalition
33:13
Speaker 3: because when they have the opportunity to do something, they fail.
33:16
Speaker 14: It's fair jack outon.
33:17
Speaker 2: Thank you so much for your time.
33:19
Speaker 13: Thanks reader.
33:20
Speaker 3: Now it's time for lefties losing it and there's apparently
33:24
Speaker 3: another wicked movie and that means more mindless musings from
33:29
Speaker 3: Ariana Grande and Cynthia Arrivo.
33:32
Speaker 14: Do you have a message for the clear fans who
33:34
Speaker 14: are watching this?
33:35
Speaker 2: We love you, we love you, we love you, we
33:38
Speaker 2: love you, we love you, we love you and aunts.
33:39
Speaker 15: It's always been a place, a same place for every
33:43
Speaker 15: different color of barenbo where everybody? Can you read the
33:45
Speaker 15: al Frank bomb books. It's the truth you're saying on us.
33:48
Speaker 15: We love you so much, the gay or the matter.
33:50
Speaker 14: Do you have a message for the gumky starts?
33:52
Speaker 2: Oh, we love you too, We love you too. Where
33:56
Speaker 2: is that camera? Great?
33:58
Speaker 3: Now we have another mostly peaceful moment. You remember the
34:02
Speaker 3: original during the BLM riots. That was some of CNN's
34:06
Speaker 3: worst work, and CBS wants to emulate that fake news
34:11
Speaker 3: by this report characterizing a violent Antifa riot at Berkeley,
34:17
Speaker 3: as you guest did, mostly peaceful.
34:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, things have.
34:20
Speaker 16: Been lively here will that Turning Point USA event is
34:24
Speaker 16: still happening inside. Protesters have been out here for hours.
34:28
Speaker 16: You can see them still here behind me. They have
34:30
Speaker 16: been chanting. Just a very very lively scene out here.
34:34
Speaker 16: While things have been mostly peaceful, there have been some
34:36
Speaker 16: tense moments. Earlier this evening there was a scuffle that
34:40
Speaker 16: broke out where two men started fighting. You see, Berkeley
34:43
Speaker 16: police had to break up that interaction. Later, someone was
34:46
Speaker 16: throwing smoke bombs.
34:48
Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? Just smoke bombs? Really?
34:52
Speaker 3: And oh yeah, the violent Antifa thugs attacking people attending
34:56
Speaker 3: a Turning Point USA event that's characterized as mostly peaceful,
35:02
Speaker 3: even as attendees are abused, threatened.
35:05
Speaker 2: And bashed.
35:06
Speaker 3: As for her claim that just two men were fighting,
35:10
Speaker 3: well that was wrong too. One man, a lefty called
35:13
Speaker 3: g had allegedly attacked the victim who was left blooded.
35:17
Speaker 3: And I say allegedly because he's already been arrested and
35:20
Speaker 3: charged with assault. And of course CBS were keen to
35:24
Speaker 3: platform another lefty losing it. A woman with a septum
35:28
Speaker 3: ring who can't tolerate people with views that differ from
35:31
Speaker 3: her warped view of the world.
35:34
Speaker 4: Turning point, unsay should not be here, and they are
35:36
Speaker 4: like a fascist organization, and nobody here agrees with what
35:40
Speaker 4: they are saying. And obviously Charlie Kirk has been a
35:43
Speaker 4: big issue with like a lot of college campuses and
35:46
Speaker 4: people on college campuses, so we just think, like, I mean,
35:49
Speaker 4: obviously I didn't really follow him a lot, but knowing
35:53
Speaker 4: what he did and knowing the things that he was saying,
35:55
Speaker 4: it's just like vile and disgusting. So we don't want
35:58
Speaker 4: to support his organization. And I don't think that the
36:01
Speaker 4: Berkeley chancellors should have let them come.
36:03
Speaker 3: Here now to allege comic Chelsea Handler, and I say
36:07
Speaker 3: alleged because she ain't funny, but she is indulging in
36:10
Speaker 3: cancel culture by encouraging people to boycott an ever increasing
36:15
Speaker 3: list of companies.
36:17
Speaker 17: Every Saturday, they're listing ten new companies to boycott, and
36:20
Speaker 17: they're giving you background reasons what they're affiliated with, who
36:23
Speaker 17: they give their money to, and who is profiting off
36:26
Speaker 17: of things like ice, profiting off of ice detention centers
36:30
Speaker 17: and all that stuff.
36:31
Speaker 14: But so like I'm feeling a lot of momentum.
36:34
Speaker 17: I'm feeling really really supercharged and happy and powerful and hopeful.
36:39
Speaker 17: I feel hopeful again.
36:41
Speaker 2: She feels hopeful again.
36:43
Speaker 3: You know, I kind of feel a little sorry for her,
36:46
Speaker 3: so I won't say what I was gonna say. But
36:49
Speaker 3: thinking it, let's see now from John Stewart, who doesn't
36:53
Speaker 3: feel hopeful at all. He is distraught because his beloved
36:57
Speaker 3: Democrats folded just like his beloved giants.
37:01
Speaker 5: Not only did the Democrats and giants lose in the
37:04
Speaker 5: same I can't believe it manner, They sound the same
37:09
Speaker 5: doing it.
37:10
Speaker 7: It's natural and appropriate to feel deep disappointment.
37:13
Speaker 18: Disappointing, disappointing outcome.
37:15
Speaker 5: It was not the result many of us want.
37:17
Speaker 18: I want to get the results that you hope for
37:19
Speaker 18: and came up short.
37:20
Speaker 2: It never feels good to come up short.
37:22
Speaker 18: We came up short, and that was a tough one.
37:24
Speaker 2: You learn and you prepare to do better in the future.
37:28
Speaker 18: You're always learning and trying to be better. Well, not
37:30
Speaker 18: enough whence not enough?
37:31
Speaker 8: Onenes, we will win, we will win, we w.
37:37
Speaker 18: We won't rest, we won't rest.
37:44
Speaker 3: Still to come what statement has been Shapiro, coming under
37:48
Speaker 3: fire from friends and foes, c J.
37:51
Speaker 10: Pearson has the details.
38:04
Speaker 2: Welcome back now, America.
38:06
Speaker 3: And indeed, the world dodged a bullet, an incoherent, incompetent bullet,
38:11
Speaker 3: when Kamala Harris failed to buy her way into the presidency. Remember,
38:16
Speaker 3: she outspent the Trump campaign by an enormous margin, and
38:20
Speaker 3: despite losing in spectacular fashion, she seems to think she
38:24
Speaker 3: outsmarted President Trump. She was playing three dimensional chess.
38:30
Speaker 19: And I wasn't about to fall pre or fall into
38:35
Speaker 19: those traps. And part of his strategy and those around him,
38:42
Speaker 19: was to try and take me off.
38:45
Speaker 2: Our game and message.
38:48
Speaker 19: And I wasn't about to be distracted by those little
38:52
Speaker 19: those flames that he was trying to throw to get
38:55
Speaker 19: me away from one of my highest priority, which is
38:59
Speaker 19: talking to people about the economy and their wellbeing in
39:01
Speaker 19: terms of their financial wellbeing.
39:05
Speaker 5: And that's so I was.
39:07
Speaker 19: I understood the game that was being playing, and I
39:10
Speaker 19: made a decision that I wasn't going to get played
39:13
Speaker 19: and checkers done. Just yeah, three dimensional chess, I'm telling you.
39:23
Speaker 5: You know.
39:26
Speaker 2: She lost by a huge margin.
39:29
Speaker 3: She lost every swing state, she lost the popular vote,
39:32
Speaker 3: and she lost the electoral College. What three dimensional chess
39:36
Speaker 3: was She exactly playing. Joining me now is political advisor
39:40
Speaker 3: and commentator c J.
39:42
Speaker 2: Pearson.
39:42
Speaker 14: C J.
39:43
Speaker 3: What is Kamala talking about?
39:47
Speaker 20: I don't think Kamala knows what she's talking about in
39:50
Speaker 20: this case, right, And she was played three dimensional chess.
39:52
Speaker 20: She was very bad at it, almost as bad as
39:55
Speaker 20: being a politician.
39:57
Speaker 14: So either way, she's.
39:58
Speaker 20: Knocking at this chess thing, not at this politics thing.
40:00
Speaker 20: Is Kyle Harris good in anything? I'm struggling to answer
40:03
Speaker 20: that question.
40:06
Speaker 8: Now.
40:06
Speaker 3: I'm interested in your take on the growing conflict within
40:11
Speaker 3: conservative ranks.
40:12
Speaker 2: There's two sides battling it out.
40:16
Speaker 3: Ben Shapiro's on one side, Tucker Carlson on the other.
40:20
Speaker 3: And I want to play you a clip that has
40:22
Speaker 3: gone viral in the past twenty four hours.
40:25
Speaker 2: It's Ben Shapiro.
40:26
Speaker 3: He's talking about housing and affordability.
40:30
Speaker 2: Let's have a listen first.
40:33
Speaker 21: If you're a young person and you can't afford to
40:35
Speaker 21: live here, then maybe you should not live here.
40:37
Speaker 18: I mean, that is a real thing.
40:39
Speaker 5: Yeah.
40:39
Speaker 21: I know that we've now grown up in a society
40:41
Speaker 21: that says that you deserve to live where you grew up.
40:44
Speaker 21: But the reality is that the history of America is
40:46
Speaker 21: almost literally the opposite of that. The history of America
40:48
Speaker 21: is you go to a place where there is opportunity,
40:51
Speaker 21: and if the opportunities are limited here and they're not changing,
40:54
Speaker 21: then you really should try to think about other places
40:57
Speaker 21: where you have better opportunities.
41:00
Speaker 8: Ce J.
41:01
Speaker 3: Ben Shapiro is copying significant criticism for that.
41:05
Speaker 2: Is that unfair?
41:07
Speaker 3: There's an argument that that brand of conservatism is going
41:11
Speaker 3: to alienate young voters and voters who feel like they
41:16
Speaker 3: can't really get into the housing market, that it's the
41:20
Speaker 3: privileges their parents had is not available to them.
41:26
Speaker 20: No, you're exactly right, and I think that type of
41:29
Speaker 20: just pessimism is not what's going to be what wins
41:32
Speaker 20: over the hearts and minds of young people and brings
41:34
Speaker 20: them over to our side. The American dream should be
41:37
Speaker 20: attainable if you are an American. Right, there are people
41:40
Speaker 20: that are trying to give the American dream to folks
41:41
Speaker 20: who are even American citizens. And so, of course you
41:45
Speaker 20: know young people in this country who are American who
41:47
Speaker 20: want to own a home. We've seen many studies where
41:49
Speaker 20: ninety percent of gen Z says they will wish to
41:51
Speaker 20: one day own a home, but fear they never will
41:54
Speaker 20: be able to that type of numerism is not going
41:58
Speaker 20: to be what brings them over to our side, And
42:00
Speaker 20: so I would say that I completely disagree with Ben
42:03
Speaker 20: on that, and I would ask where he would want
42:05
Speaker 20: them to move or we sposed to lose our best
42:07
Speaker 20: and writers to Costa Rica or some type of third
42:11
Speaker 20: world country where maybe there will be millionaires.
42:14
Speaker 14: I don't really know what the solution to what he
42:17
Speaker 14: was proposing actually is or what that would.
42:19
Speaker 1: Even look like.
42:20
Speaker 3: So now I think I would hope it was suggesting
42:24
Speaker 3: that perhaps move to more affordable parts of America as
42:28
Speaker 3: opposed to some of the big cities where affordability is
42:32
Speaker 3: such a problem. But it is interesting, isn't it that
42:36
Speaker 3: that sort of sentiment can be seen as just lacking
42:40
Speaker 3: in compassion and young people feeling like they've done the
42:44
Speaker 3: right things. They've gone to university, they've got this massive
42:47
Speaker 3: college debt, they're trying to work, and they're not getting ahead,
42:52
Speaker 3: they're falling further behind. And I think that's something that well,
42:56
Speaker 3: all sides of the political spectrum need to think about now.
43:00
Speaker 3: The left like to portray themselves as kind, compassionate, open
43:04
Speaker 3: minded when they're nothing of the sort. And that's something
43:08
Speaker 3: actress Cheryl Hines has discovered first had here she is
43:11
Speaker 3: chatting with Bill Maher.
43:13
Speaker 22: The Republicans have been very keen to me from the beginning,
43:18
Speaker 22: even from the beginning when when Bobby was running as
43:22
Speaker 22: a Democrat, they were they were, They weren't mean no,
43:27
Speaker 22: and they never have been no.
43:29
Speaker 2: And I can't see that for the Democrats.
43:32
Speaker 8: I agree, and it's it's sad because it's not the
43:35
Speaker 8: Democrats we grew up with.
43:38
Speaker 3: Of course, actress Cheryl Hines, married to RFK Junior CJ.
43:43
Speaker 3: Bill Maher still votes Democratic campaigns against Republicans, but even
43:49
Speaker 3: he acknowledges that the left has changed just during his lifetime.
43:53
Speaker 3: There's been a fairly dramatic change.
43:57
Speaker 20: Yeah, these may not be the Democrats they grew up with,
43:59
Speaker 20: but these are the Democrats have today. The Democrats who
44:02
Speaker 20: completely hate free speech. We saw it just yesterday at
44:05
Speaker 20: the Turning Point USA event that happened at UC Berkeley,
44:08
Speaker 20: where they through firebombs and sought to assault attendees of
44:11
Speaker 20: the event. And this is the so called, you know,
44:14
Speaker 20: political party of supposed to tolerance. These people absolutely hate dissent,
44:19
Speaker 20: they hate different ideas, they hate you know, half of
44:21
Speaker 20: America unfortunately, like that is where we are right now,
44:24
Speaker 20: and I think Cheryl Hines is completely right. What I
44:28
Speaker 20: hope is that you know, those classical liberals, those old
44:30
Speaker 20: school Democrats, realize that there is no home for them.
44:33
Speaker 14: In the modern Democrat Party.
44:34
Speaker 20: I hope that they, you know, find themselves, you know,
44:37
Speaker 20: looking at other options.
44:38
Speaker 14: You know, Bill Maher is someone.
44:39
Speaker 20: That you know, I feel like sometimes we give him
44:41
Speaker 20: a little bit too much credit because I think that
44:43
Speaker 20: he knows that that reality is true, that there is
44:46
Speaker 20: no home for him in the modern Democrat Party.
44:48
Speaker 14: But still he hasn't found his way, you know, outside
44:52
Speaker 14: of it quite yet.
44:53
Speaker 20: But I'll hold out hope for him and hopefully he'll
44:55
Speaker 20: he'll make the jump one day.
44:58
Speaker 2: Well, he's come a long way.
45:00
Speaker 3: I mean, I've played clips of him going on insane
45:03
Speaker 3: rants and teds afflicted rants.
45:06
Speaker 2: And he doesn't do that anymore.
45:08
Speaker 3: He made all sorts of doomsday predictions if Trump won,
45:11
Speaker 3: that you know, everyone's free speech was going to be takeaway,
45:14
Speaker 3: he was going to be ripped off air.
45:16
Speaker 2: He would never give up power.
45:18
Speaker 3: He's moderated somewhat, So there's hope for him. Let's just
45:22
Speaker 3: see if he's fully cured of his TDS, but during
45:27
Speaker 3: that chat, they also talked about mccarthy'sm modern day McCarthyism,
45:32
Speaker 3: a real variety that exists, undoubtedly where if you're in
45:38
Speaker 3: an entertainment well, particularly Hollywood, and you are not a leftist,
45:44
Speaker 3: then it is going to impact your career. It doesn't
45:47
Speaker 3: matter how popular you are.
45:49
Speaker 2: How good you are at your job.
45:51
Speaker 3: You're probably not going to get the roles that you
45:53
Speaker 3: would get. Perhaps you won't get any roles at all,
45:55
Speaker 3: and you would be blacklisted.
45:57
Speaker 10: You do.
45:57
Speaker 20: I think you're exactly right. You know, the cancel culture
46:00
Speaker 20: that has defined the left is very much alive and
46:03
Speaker 20: well in Hollywood. But what I'll you know, give them
46:05
Speaker 20: kind of credit for now with the rise of the
46:07
Speaker 20: Sydney Swings that you kind of realize that people are
46:10
Speaker 20: over this entire uh, you know, being lectured by a
46:13
Speaker 20: bunch of Hollywood celebrities who are completely and grossly out
46:16
Speaker 20: of touch with the day to day problems of everyday Americans.
46:19
Speaker 14: And I think that's exactly why.
46:21
Speaker 20: You know, all of Hollywood may have rallied around Kamlalin Harris,
46:24
Speaker 20: may have rallied around Joe Biden and Barack Obama, but
46:27
Speaker 20: the American people rejected those individuals, and they're pleased to
46:30
Speaker 20: you know, fall in line in all of those things.
46:32
Speaker 14: And so people are over canceled culture, They're over being
46:35
Speaker 14: told how to think and what to think.
46:37
Speaker 20: Why Because this is the United States of America, and
46:40
Speaker 20: I think courage is contagious. So when you see you know,
46:43
Speaker 20: celebrities like Shechryl Hines now who are starting to ask
46:45
Speaker 20: those questions. Even Bill Maher, you know, starting to you know,
46:48
Speaker 20: ask questions he previously, you know, would never have thought
46:51
Speaker 20: to ask or make criticisms of his own side that
46:53
Speaker 20: we have never thought to have made. I think it
46:55
Speaker 20: leads to a lot of other people in Hollywood saying
46:58
Speaker 20: why can't I ask those same questions as well.
47:02
Speaker 3: Now I want to play you some footage from the
47:05
Speaker 3: New York City subway.
47:06
Speaker 2: Watch how this.
47:07
Speaker 3: Woman is threatened, pushed around, and how nobody intervenes.
47:22
Speaker 1: Talking about.
47:27
Speaker 18: Talking about.
47:32
Speaker 1: This talking c J.
47:48
Speaker 3: In my mind, that's a failure in masculinity. What happened
47:54
Speaker 3: to good Samaritans, What happened to chivalry?
47:57
Speaker 2: What happened to protecting women?
48:00
Speaker 5: Exactly right?
48:01
Speaker 20: You know, it's a failure of masculinity. But it's also
48:04
Speaker 20: the spread of cowardice. But you know, why does that
48:07
Speaker 20: cowardice maybe exist, Maybe because it's the folks like Daniel
48:10
Speaker 20: Penny who would have seen something.
48:12
Speaker 14: Like that sprung into actor and then in.
48:15
Speaker 20: A city like New York would not have been treated
48:17
Speaker 20: like the hero that he is, would not have been
48:19
Speaker 20: commended for sainting up for someone that's weaker than him,
48:23
Speaker 20: smaller than him, but would have been thrown in jail
48:26
Speaker 20: and risk the ability of ever making a livelihood ever again.
48:30
Speaker 5: And so it's.
48:31
Speaker 20: Unfortunate that, you know, I think people have to think
48:34
Speaker 20: and double think about those things. I think we also
48:36
Speaker 20: just right the rise of the occasion stone and say no,
48:39
Speaker 20: we're just not going to let that happen. But I
48:41
Speaker 20: think that we're seeing exactly the type of reaction that
48:46
Speaker 20: the conditions of New York City and their law enforcement
48:48
Speaker 20: have created.
48:49
Speaker 14: And it's only going to get worse to mom, Donnie.
48:51
Speaker 20: So if this is a foreshotow on what's to come,
48:53
Speaker 20: I think that this is going to get a lot
48:55
Speaker 20: worse from here.
48:57
Speaker 5: C J.
48:58
Speaker 3: Pearson, thank you so much for your time. And that's
49:01
Speaker 3: it from May to up. Next it's Newsnight. I'll see
49:04
Speaker 3: you at eleven tomorrow night
