Speaker 1: He's the bolt reform it Tonight, Labour's latest ridiculous excuse
0:18
Speaker 1: for not giving back the millions of dirty dollars it
0:20
Speaker 1: got from the corruptcy. If I'm a U Union, it
0:24
Speaker 1: being spent.
0:24
Speaker 2: It's not like they're sitting in a bank account waiting
0:27
Speaker 2: to be returned.
0:28
Speaker 1: I've spent the proceedings of crime, so they won't return it. Seriously.
0:34
Speaker 1: Also tonight, Joe Barden now says he has COVID. This
0:36
Speaker 1: his excuse of finally quitting the US election. Wait a minute,
0:41
Speaker 1: why isn't this hypocrite wearing his mask? Plus the Green
0:45
Speaker 1: senator now crying racism after a cartoon mocked it as
0:48
Speaker 1: you have a glass jaw. But first, the Aven's government's
0:54
Speaker 1: green energy scheme is turning into an absolute disaster for
0:58
Speaker 1: our country. Our power system is a huge danger. Now.
1:01
Speaker 1: The latest, I mean devastating is the decision of Mirning
1:05
Speaker 1: billionaire Andrew Forrest, the global warming crusader, to give up
1:08
Speaker 1: on most of his green hydrogen schemes, a slash seven
1:11
Speaker 1: hundred jobs, seven hundred, He says the hydrogen projects is
1:15
Speaker 1: scrapping don't make economic sense. Now, this is a huge backflip.
1:22
Speaker 1: Only three years ago, Forrest was signing green hydrogen deals
1:26
Speaker 1: around the world conditional ones totaling two hundred billion dollars,
1:31
Speaker 1: and now has no more than five projects still on
1:34
Speaker 1: his books, mostly small and mostly overseas. Now this sure matters,
1:40
Speaker 1: particularly to the government and the country. Green hydrogen is
1:45
Speaker 1: a very volatile gas made from water using massive amounts
1:48
Speaker 1: of solar, windo or hydropower. It's been sold as a
1:52
Speaker 1: miracle green fuel, and the Albdizi government was actually betting
1:57
Speaker 1: this country on it working. I mean betting that it
2:01
Speaker 1: can go off and destroy our cul far generators. You
2:05
Speaker 1: can get rid of gas and then use this hydrogen
2:08
Speaker 1: instead to help save us from blackouts. In fact, it
2:12
Speaker 1: was Forrest who helped sell the pro Minister and the
2:16
Speaker 1: gullible energy Minster Chris Bone on this green hydrogen, even
2:20
Speaker 1: though it's never been proven to work economically at scale.
2:24
Speaker 3: Green hydrogen the purest source of energy in the world
2:28
Speaker 3: and one that could.
2:29
Speaker 4: Replace up to three quarters of global emissions.
2:32
Speaker 5: Our green hydrogen future is fundamental to that clean energy future.
2:37
Speaker 5: The green hydrogen sector has an enormous potential in this country.
2:42
Speaker 1: Anthony Alberezia since promised at least eight billion dollars of
2:46
Speaker 1: your money on green hydrogen plans billions more just this year,
2:51
Speaker 1: even when experts were warning don't try to pick winners.
2:54
Speaker 1: Pro Minister hydrogen for instance, might not work. It's so expensive,
2:58
Speaker 1: it's explosive. Normal gas pipes can't even handle it. Don't
3:01
Speaker 1: try putting it in your stoves, by the way, But
3:04
Speaker 1: this dishonest government has kept pretending green hydrogen could savers.
3:08
Speaker 1: It said no to nuclear, but yes the hydrogen, even
3:12
Speaker 1: though the hydrogen projects expect have kept failing. Yes, it's astonishing.
3:18
Speaker 1: Albin Easy and Energy miss the Bowe are reality deniers.
3:22
Speaker 1: Give you two examples. Just before the election, Albanyzy and
3:26
Speaker 1: Bowen promised that'd make the new curry Curry gas plant
3:29
Speaker 1: in New South Wales use hydrogen.
3:33
Speaker 3: The Curry Curry plant ken stay open, run by gas,
3:39
Speaker 3: but with thirty percent green hydrogen from the beginning, but
3:43
Speaker 3: working up to being powered by green hydrogen in the future.
3:50
Speaker 1: Total bull. Just months later, the plant operator said no,
3:53
Speaker 1: we'll Actually using hydrogen was impossible, but this government wouldn't
3:58
Speaker 1: listen and it wouldn't stop. It handed nearly fourteen million
4:01
Speaker 1: dollars again of your money to another hydrogen project in
4:05
Speaker 1: Queensland on Gibson Island and Andrew Forrest's scheme that he
4:09
Speaker 1: and Queensland's then Labor Premier said would be a winner.
4:14
Speaker 6: What we're saying is an industrial green revolution.
4:17
Speaker 2: Queensland leads Australia, where Queensland leads the world in really
4:23
Speaker 2: exciting sustainable green industries.
4:28
Speaker 1: And like I say, the Albanize government last year splashed
4:31
Speaker 1: our money on that plan too, but another flop Forrest
4:33
Speaker 1: this year dropped that one too, saying it was not economic.
4:37
Speaker 1: Yet still, the Albanezy government pushed green hydrogen as a
4:40
Speaker 1: fuel that's going to save Australia as we run out
4:43
Speaker 1: of gas and run out of electricity. And what makes
4:46
Speaker 1: this all so sick, so delusional, is that here is
4:50
Speaker 1: this government flocking a green hydrogen technology that's unproven and
4:55
Speaker 1: so dodgy that now it's biggest spooker here is walking away.
4:59
Speaker 1: Here is this goverment flogging dodgy hydrogen while meanwhile banning
5:04
Speaker 1: a proven technology nuclear power, nuclear works. Green hydrogen doesn't.
5:10
Speaker 1: But look at which one Albanesi and Bone are backing
5:13
Speaker 1: yet again in this year's budget.
5:16
Speaker 4: This budget invests in our renewable energy superpower ambitions, including
5:21
Speaker 4: thirteen point seven billion dollars in production tax incentives for
5:25
Speaker 4: green hydrogen and process critical minerals.
5:30
Speaker 1: Now worse is that Chris Bone is now telling outright
5:33
Speaker 1: lies to try to persuade you we can't have nuclear
5:37
Speaker 1: power instead, again and again, lastly this yesterday, that we
5:41
Speaker 1: can't have both nuclear and renewable energy. We've got to choose.
5:46
Speaker 5: Australians could choose reliable renewables or risky reactors, but not both.
5:52
Speaker 5: I'm not ideological about nuclear, but the simple reality is
5:57
Speaker 5: that we can't have both.
6:00
Speaker 1: Well. Dr Ardie Patterson is the former head of our
6:02
Speaker 1: Lucas Hearts nuclear reactor, the one that's used just for
6:05
Speaker 1: medicine today. I said Chris Bone was lying. His claims
6:09
Speaker 1: that nuclear energy was incompatible with renewables is a lie.
6:13
Speaker 1: There is no country in the world where nuclear energy
6:15
Speaker 1: generation is not among a mix of energy sources, including
6:19
Speaker 1: renewable and in fact, you just look at this map
6:23
Speaker 1: of countries using some nuclear from light yellow that's just
6:27
Speaker 1: a bit of nuclear to a blue a lot sixty
6:30
Speaker 1: percent or more, they all have both nuclear power and
6:33
Speaker 1: renewable energy. Just look at the wind farms in France.
6:38
Speaker 1: Bone is lying when Australians can't have both, And now
6:43
Speaker 1: with our energy system collapsing around Bone's ears, he's jumping
6:47
Speaker 1: on his maddest idea yet, one that we laughed at
6:51
Speaker 1: on this show just last week. He said, now adopted it.
6:55
Speaker 1: The plan is using the batteries in your electric cars,
6:59
Speaker 1: if you have them, to power the grid when we're
7:03
Speaker 1: short of electricity. His plan is supposed to work like this.
7:06
Speaker 1: A natural disaster hits the storm, a fire or flood, something,
7:09
Speaker 1: perhaps the power lines down, triggering blackout, something like that,
7:12
Speaker 1: and you find that, hey, your electric car has been
7:15
Speaker 1: drained of electricity in his battery to restore the electricity
7:20
Speaker 1: in the grid. How desperate is that? Is this band
7:27
Speaker 1: aide stuff that we've now come to, mad cap investments
7:31
Speaker 1: and unproven green hydrogen wild schemes to keep on the
7:35
Speaker 1: lights by using car batteries and all the time saying
7:38
Speaker 1: no to our coal coal that works, saying no to
7:41
Speaker 1: nuclear power, nuclear that works. I've never seen such economic
7:47
Speaker 1: vandalism or madness in this country, and it's all dressed
7:50
Speaker 1: up with some great moral crusade to save a planet
7:54
Speaker 1: that doesn't actually need saving. Now, the real crisis we've
7:59
Speaker 1: got is not a climate crisis. It is a bowen crisis.
8:05
Speaker 1: How much longer do we have with this government before
8:09
Speaker 1: it's our electricity system that can't be saved. Join me
8:18
Speaker 1: is former Deputy Prime Minister and now National's MP frontbenchure
8:23
Speaker 1: Thursday regular Barnaby Joyce. Barnaby Joyce, thank you so much
8:27
Speaker 1: for your time. And now Andrew Forrest is walking away
8:30
Speaker 1: from most of his green hydrogen dream saying the costs
8:33
Speaker 1: are making this miracle gas is just too much of
8:36
Speaker 1: the moment. How big a blow is this to the
8:39
Speaker 1: Albazi government's plans for net zero emissions.
8:43
Speaker 7: Well, the fantasy of the cult is coming unstuck, isn't it.
8:46
Speaker 7: It's the first step through the scales falling off the
8:51
Speaker 7: people in power's eyes.
8:54
Speaker 8: We see that.
8:55
Speaker 7: Even Jenny George is out today saying it, amitt of
8:57
Speaker 7: power just can't do it. Well know that everybody knows that,
9:01
Speaker 7: and I'm glad Jenny's saying that as well. But this
9:04
Speaker 7: is always going to This is always the fastest idea
9:07
Speaker 7: that green hydrogen, which wasn't working anywhere in the world,
9:10
Speaker 7: just like in the Middle power which doesn't work one
9:12
Speaker 7: hundred percent anywhere in the world.
9:13
Speaker 8: It's going to magically work here.
9:15
Speaker 7: But we've spent you know, I don't know how many
9:17
Speaker 7: billions the taxpayers put towards this sort of process already.
9:21
Speaker 8: But where were taken on a merry ride.
9:24
Speaker 7: Wasn't a wonderful experience that we had all those stage
9:27
Speaker 7: people out there saying, oh, this is it.
9:29
Speaker 8: And if you if you contradicted.
9:31
Speaker 7: Them, well you were a denier. You know, you're an apostate.
9:34
Speaker 7: Well apparently we're also correct. It just doesn't work.
9:40
Speaker 1: But you know what chucks be. It's not just the
9:42
Speaker 1: waste of money, okay in this case, a lot of
9:45
Speaker 1: it is, you know, Andrew Forrest. It's that we're destroying
9:50
Speaker 1: a system that worked to replace it with one the
9:53
Speaker 1: government can't actually get off the ground. I mean, this
9:56
Speaker 1: is just insane. And the other thing, too, is nuclear
9:59
Speaker 1: ener Chris Bowen lied yesterday when he said we couldn't
10:04
Speaker 1: have both renewable energy and nuclear power, as you said.
10:09
Speaker 1: Former federal labor and pig Jenny George used to be
10:11
Speaker 1: president of as You to you today blasted this anti
10:14
Speaker 1: nuclear campaign. She wrote that gas or nuclear need to
10:18
Speaker 1: be part of the equation in the post coal era
10:21
Speaker 1: first world economy. Can't run on intermittent renewables like wind
10:25
Speaker 1: and solar alone. And Bone's description of intermittent weather dependent
10:30
Speaker 1: renewables you know needs win, needs sun as reliable and
10:34
Speaker 1: incredibly cheap. As way off the mark looks's right, of course,
10:38
Speaker 1: But do you think do you think labour scare campaign
10:42
Speaker 1: against nuclear is actually going to win against these facts?
10:46
Speaker 7: Well, you don't have to be Pythagoras to work this
10:49
Speaker 7: one out, but you have to be Peter Pan to
10:51
Speaker 7: believe it. I mean, it's self evident in emitted power
10:55
Speaker 7: works on a concept that a windmill will power our economy.
11:00
Speaker 7: It's just ludicrous. If Owen's plan was so watertight, it
11:05
Speaker 7: will so correct. If all his protestations about the sunning
11:09
Speaker 7: up lands or intimit of power.
11:10
Speaker 8: Were correct, we would have we would.
11:13
Speaker 7: Have manufacturers from overseas, from over that seed coming to
11:18
Speaker 7: Australia to set up factories. Volkswagen, Seamen's, Brooks, General Electric,
11:23
Speaker 7: General Motors, they'll all be staying off.
11:25
Speaker 8: Australia's got it so right.
11:26
Speaker 7: But no one, no one in a pink fit in manufacturing,
11:30
Speaker 7: would be coming to this nation when we say we're
11:33
Speaker 7: going to run it on intimit of powers and green hydrogen,
11:36
Speaker 7: and I don't know fairy dust. It's it's an absurdity,
11:40
Speaker 7: But slowly, piece by piece, this absurdity is becoming ever
11:43
Speaker 7: more present in the reality of what is actually happening now.
11:48
Speaker 8: I don't know how much dough mister Forrest's blind, but
11:51
Speaker 8: I would say it's a fair bit.
11:52
Speaker 7: I don't know how much dough the taxpayer has put
11:55
Speaker 7: towards this, but I would.
11:56
Speaker 8: Say it's a fair bit.
11:57
Speaker 7: What I do know is the billions and billions going
12:00
Speaker 7: to put towards this nirvana like belief. It a bit
12:04
Speaker 7: of power running a first world economy like I was
12:08
Speaker 7: once the first world economy like astraight.
12:10
Speaker 8: Keep doing this, you going to drive it into the dirt.
12:12
Speaker 7: And you can not think it's like to live in
12:14
Speaker 7: a cave, because that's where you're.
12:15
Speaker 1: Off to bill These buildings being poured into a green hydrogen,
12:21
Speaker 1: I don't know why they can't be just poured into
12:23
Speaker 1: building a nuclear plant instead, which at least would work.
12:26
Speaker 1: At Chris Bone, you talked about, you know, mad ideas.
12:29
Speaker 1: While the ideas Chris Bone now says he likes the
12:33
Speaker 1: idea of getting electric cars to send back to the
12:38
Speaker 1: system the power in their batteries, send it back into
12:42
Speaker 1: the grid during an electricity shortage. Is that a good idea?
12:45
Speaker 1: And do you think the coalition should adopt it?
12:48
Speaker 7: Imagine how that's going to work. Could everybody please come home?
12:52
Speaker 7: I want you to part your car and because we
12:54
Speaker 7: run out of power.
12:56
Speaker 8: It's just insane. It's insane, you know.
12:59
Speaker 7: Obviously at the same time they're doing this, they're saying
13:02
Speaker 7: that the power doesn't work.
13:04
Speaker 8: I mean, it's what is your option? Where where else
13:07
Speaker 8: can you go? You lunatics.
13:11
Speaker 1: It's just it's look, it's one of those little you know,
13:15
Speaker 1: band aids and bits of string kind of uh, you know,
13:19
Speaker 1: mad desperate ideas that suggests that this power system really
13:23
Speaker 1: is in trouble and they've run out of ideas how
13:26
Speaker 1: to fix it.
13:28
Speaker 8: Well, it is in trouble.
13:29
Speaker 7: It is we've successfully managed to basically start driving the
13:34
Speaker 7: car around on its rims.
13:35
Speaker 8: You know, it's just not working.
13:38
Speaker 7: And we've got people saying, well, we're going to have
13:40
Speaker 7: a power christ we're going to run out of power.
13:42
Speaker 8: They're shedding power of times, everybody's saying.
13:45
Speaker 7: And then we've got we've got these clowns saying well
13:48
Speaker 7: now we've got a solution.
13:50
Speaker 8: We'll have everybody to have electric cars.
13:52
Speaker 7: And then we'll ask them all to go home, and
13:54
Speaker 7: then we're going to run Australia off their car battery.
13:58
Speaker 7: I mean, if you just hit back, no, obviously you've
14:03
Speaker 7: got to stop drinking. You can't drink up it. It's
14:06
Speaker 7: really affecting what you're saying. You are beyond the pale.
14:10
Speaker 7: This is in Saturday.
14:13
Speaker 1: Part of me around the country on car batteries. I mean, seriously,
14:19
Speaker 1: is that where we've got to. I mean, it's the
14:22
Speaker 1: whole thing's just so lunatic, beyond words. Barnaby Jewish, thank
14:25
Speaker 1: you so much indeed for your.
14:26
Speaker 8: Time always the pleasure always.
14:31
Speaker 1: Is ZERRUS President Joe Biden about to quit quit the
14:34
Speaker 1: November election campaign and blaming that decision on a case
14:38
Speaker 1: of COVID today said he just got you know, it's
14:42
Speaker 1: all coming to a head now, and Barden looks as
14:44
Speaker 1: beaten as he slowly and painfully dragged himself onto his
14:48
Speaker 1: plane to go home. Now. This COVID news comes after
14:51
Speaker 1: Buden's reportedly told them the weekend to drop out by
14:55
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer, the leader of the Democrats in the US,
14:57
Speaker 1: and and also by the Democrats House Leader, twenty Democrat congressmen.
15:01
Speaker 1: They've publicly told him to quit. There's now a newspaper
15:05
Speaker 1: reports breaking that he's now open more open to discussions
15:09
Speaker 1: on this and no wonder you take his latest big
15:13
Speaker 1: speech another disaster. Couldn't even read the teleprompter without losing
15:17
Speaker 1: his train of thought. We're going to build two million
15:20
Speaker 1: affordable homes.
15:22
Speaker 6: The cap RAN increases of five percent a year, so
15:24
Speaker 6: corporate landlords can't God anyway get going. I'm going to
15:29
Speaker 6: get very upset. We'll save taxpayers, just what I did
15:33
Speaker 6: on the first round nine deal with Medicare. It saves
15:36
Speaker 6: the taxpayer one one hundred and sixty billion dollars because
15:42
Speaker 6: they don't have to pay these exorbitant prices to these anywhere.
15:48
Speaker 1: Now Buden keeps saying, you won't quit. There's no real
15:50
Speaker 1: way to force him. But with all the pressures on him, now,
15:54
Speaker 1: has he got his excuse to quit at least with
15:56
Speaker 1: some dignity. Oh it's COVID, it's not because I'm center.
16:00
Speaker 1: And what a coincidence. Yesterday In fact, he said to
16:03
Speaker 1: drop out of the race if his doctors told him to.
16:06
Speaker 9: Is there anything that you would look to you personally,
16:10
Speaker 9: not anybody else, not other pundits, not even perhaps family
16:13
Speaker 9: members that you would look.
16:15
Speaker 1: To to say, if I see that, I will reevaluate.
16:20
Speaker 6: If I had some medical condition and emerged, if somebody,
16:23
Speaker 6: if the doctors came to me and said you got
16:24
Speaker 6: this problem, that.
16:25
Speaker 1: Problem, and the very next day he says it's got COVID.
16:31
Speaker 1: Joined me is Sean Spicer, who is Donald Trump's first
16:33
Speaker 1: White House spokesman as President. Shawn Spicer, thank you so
16:38
Speaker 1: much for joining us. The pressure on Joe Biden to
16:41
Speaker 1: quit now it's just the mens. His public appearances are terrible,
16:45
Speaker 1: his colleagues are abandoning him, Donuts are closing their wallets. Now,
16:49
Speaker 1: I know you've made this point many times. No one
16:51
Speaker 1: in the party can now make him quit. He won
16:54
Speaker 1: the nomination vote. But do you still think he'll hang
16:57
Speaker 1: on or will now he finally give up?
17:00
Speaker 10: For the last several months, I've said unequivocally he will
17:03
Speaker 10: be the nominee, and it's only Joe Biden that can
17:06
Speaker 10: determine his fate. In his outcome, these delegates are his
17:09
Speaker 10: and his alone to do what he wants to and
17:12
Speaker 10: once he becomes the nominee, similarly, it would be all
17:15
Speaker 10: about him to decide whether or not to relinquish the
17:19
Speaker 10: nomination and figure out how to go forward. About five hours,
17:24
Speaker 10: I started to think for the first time that there
17:27
Speaker 10: might be something to this. He had given an interview
17:31
Speaker 10: within the past what seventy two hours where he said, well,
17:34
Speaker 10: if there was a medical condition, then you know, maybe
17:37
Speaker 10: I would do something. And lo and behold, he gets
17:41
Speaker 10: diagnosed with COVID and says he's going to Delaware to recuperate.
17:46
Speaker 11: I don't know, but I have been.
17:47
Speaker 10: Resisting these calls that they're going to replace him for
17:50
Speaker 10: the aforementioned reasons that it wasn't anyone's call but his.
17:54
Speaker 10: But every once in a while, there's an off ramp,
17:57
Speaker 10: and I looked at it my own career when I
17:59
Speaker 10: was in the White House with Donald Trump, and there's
18:02
Speaker 10: days when I said, hey, I got the off ramp.
18:03
Speaker 10: God's giving me one to say, Hake, it.
18:07
Speaker 11: Is God giving Joe Biden that off ramp right now.
18:09
Speaker 11: I hope not. I want him to stay the nominee.
18:12
Speaker 10: And I actually think that it's foolish for Republicans to
18:16
Speaker 10: hope that he's not the nominee for a variety of reasons.
18:19
Speaker 10: But I will tell you for the first time, I
18:22
Speaker 10: actually am second guessing my own analysis on this and
18:25
Speaker 10: wondering if this is the exit rep because you combined
18:29
Speaker 10: what I just said with the fact that the DNC
18:32
Speaker 10: told their delegates today that this virtual role call that
18:35
Speaker 10: they are going to.
18:36
Speaker 11: Do is getting pushed back.
18:38
Speaker 10: That gives Biden even more time to formulate some off
18:43
Speaker 10: ramp excuse why he's dropping out and handing the baton over.
18:47
Speaker 1: Well, don't forget a proud man would rather quit because
18:50
Speaker 1: COVID got him than quit because he's going gaga. That's
18:54
Speaker 1: a far better face saving excuse I have to say. Meanwhile,
18:59
Speaker 1: of course the world can see Donald Trump's getting stronger
19:02
Speaker 1: and stronger. You've had two of the four legal cases
19:05
Speaker 1: launched by Democrat prosecutors to try to put him in jailed.
19:08
Speaker 1: They have now been thrown out or crippled by judges
19:11
Speaker 1: over the past week or two. The Republicans of United
19:14
Speaker 1: behind him. The polls are for him. He's looked invincible
19:16
Speaker 1: after being shot on Saturday. Even the Teams's Union spoke
19:20
Speaker 1: for him at the Republican Convention, which has had many
19:23
Speaker 1: powerful speakers Sean and today I was blown away. I
19:28
Speaker 1: thought this was a big moment. The relatives of the
19:31
Speaker 1: thirteen American soldiers killed during his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan,
19:37
Speaker 1: like their mother in law of a woman, a soldier,
19:40
Speaker 1: a sergeant. Look, she was.
19:43
Speaker 12: Killed at abby Gheate in Afghanistan, alongside twelve of her
19:49
Speaker 12: brothers and sister in arms, while Joe Biden has refused
19:55
Speaker 12: to recognize their sacrifice, Donald Trump I spent six hours
20:01
Speaker 12: in Bedminster with us, and for the first time since
20:05
Speaker 12: Nicole's death, I felt I wasn't alone in my grief.
20:10
Speaker 1: And these are families furious though Joe Barden, in his
20:13
Speaker 1: debate with Trump, claimed that no soldiers died under his watch.
20:18
Speaker 1: So these parents read out the names of all thirteen
20:22
Speaker 1: are the ones that died in that Afghan retreat, with
20:27
Speaker 1: the crowd repeating those names.
20:28
Speaker 9: Here's just some of it, Dylan Marolla, Bream Lakoui, Dagan Paige,
20:50
Speaker 9: Johani Retardo.
20:59
Speaker 1: That is a very powerful moment, Sean, where is this
21:02
Speaker 1: selection campaign now headed? When you've got that kind of
21:06
Speaker 1: momentum there, that kind of emotion.
21:08
Speaker 10: This was a reminder not only did he forget the
21:12
Speaker 10: names of those individuals, and that they had died on
21:16
Speaker 10: his watch during the debate. But I think it's a
21:19
Speaker 10: reminder of his policies, of how he treats other people.
21:24
Speaker 10: I mean, it was a multifaceted issue up there on
21:29
Speaker 10: the stage, if you will. It reminded people of the
21:31
Speaker 10: failed withdrawal. It reminded people of how he treats people
21:34
Speaker 10: who have served this country. It reminded people did he
21:36
Speaker 10: just forget? Was there a mental acuity issue? But this
21:39
Speaker 10: reinforces the narrative about Joe Biden on a multitude of
21:42
Speaker 10: fronts that is not good for the campaign. And this
21:45
Speaker 10: goes back to the first comments I made Andrew, which
21:48
Speaker 10: is for the first time, I am actually worried that
21:53
Speaker 10: he is going to voluntarily step aside. And you know
21:57
Speaker 10: from our conversations every week, I have been resistant to
22:00
Speaker 10: those calls saying that Joe Biden is defiant, he wants
22:03
Speaker 10: a legacy.
22:04
Speaker 11: Blah blah blah blah blah.
22:06
Speaker 10: I think that he is sitting in rehob with the
22:08
Speaker 10: first Lady and they are trying to figure out what
22:11
Speaker 10: that off ramp is. How can they hand this over
22:13
Speaker 10: to Kamala Harris in the most undisruptive way that maybe
22:20
Speaker 10: there isn't one, but I'm trying to.
22:21
Speaker 11: I think that's what they're trying to figure out right now.
22:23
Speaker 1: I think that's absolutely right. Although I put first on
22:26
Speaker 1: that list. How can they do it with dignity for Donald,
22:30
Speaker 1: for Joe Biden. The dignity thing I think comes first.
22:34
Speaker 1: Donald Trump has picked as his vice president Senator jd. Vance,
22:38
Speaker 1: author of The Hillbilly Elergy. About his really tough background,
22:43
Speaker 1: he spoke today the Republican Conference, and I think it
22:46
Speaker 1: didn't get much applause. This line didn't get much applause,
22:49
Speaker 1: but I think it really summed up where he is focused.
22:53
Speaker 1: Where in fact, I think the whole Republican Conference is focused.
22:57
Speaker 1: The Donald Trump campaign is focused. Every Listen, things did.
23:00
Speaker 13: Not work out well for a lot of kids I
23:02
Speaker 13: grew up with. Every Now and then I will get
23:04
Speaker 13: a call from a relative back home who asks, did
23:07
Speaker 13: you know so and so? And I'll remember a face
23:10
Speaker 13: from years ago, and then I'll hear they died of
23:12
Speaker 13: an overdose. As always, America's ruling class wrote the checks.
23:17
Speaker 13: Communities like mine paid the price for decades that divide
23:22
Speaker 13: between the few with their power and comfort in Washington
23:25
Speaker 13: and the rest of US only widened from Iraq to Afghanistan,
23:29
Speaker 13: from the financial crisis to the Great Recession, from open
23:32
Speaker 13: borders to stagnating wages. The people who govern this country
23:36
Speaker 13: have failed and failed again.
23:40
Speaker 1: What do you make of where jd Vance is, what
23:44
Speaker 1: is saying about the campaign and what he brings to
23:47
Speaker 1: the ticket.
23:49
Speaker 10: You know, he's very reminiscent of the twenty sixteen theme
23:53
Speaker 10: that Donald Trump brought to the table, which is the
23:55
Speaker 10: forgotten men and women. He talked tonight about his story
23:59
Speaker 10: growing up in Apple, a dirt poor with a broken family,
24:02
Speaker 10: the rags to riches American story that we all love to.
24:05
Speaker 11: Hear and talk about here in America.
24:07
Speaker 10: And I think it was a reminder to everyone out
24:09
Speaker 10: there in this country that says I've been forgotten by
24:12
Speaker 10: Washington politicians, by our government.
24:15
Speaker 11: This is a guy who knows how to champion it.
24:17
Speaker 10: He's walked in my shoes, He's lived my experiences. I
24:20
Speaker 10: want to be with him. So you've got Donald Trump
24:22
Speaker 10: on one end of the spectrum. Who is the builder,
24:25
Speaker 10: the restaurant tour, the casino magnet, the television star who
24:30
Speaker 10: understands the blue collar workers that are backbone, the backbone
24:33
Speaker 10: of America. But then you've got JD Vance, who tonight,
24:36
Speaker 10: through the comments is basically saying I've lived that.
24:39
Speaker 11: I know what it's like to be dirt poor.
24:41
Speaker 10: I know what it's like to enlist in the Marine
24:45
Speaker 10: Corps to get the GI bill to afford to go
24:47
Speaker 10: to college. He lives that experience, and through very different paths, Andrew,
24:52
Speaker 10: Donald Trump and JD Vance have ended up at the
24:54
Speaker 10: same place in terms of the policies that they're proposing
24:58
Speaker 10: to advance this country forward.
25:02
Speaker 1: I think it's a fascinating trajectory there that you described
25:05
Speaker 1: as Sean, and I don't know. I think it's going
25:09
Speaker 1: to convince a lot of doubters people in the middle.
25:14
Speaker 1: We shall see, Sean spicea thank you so much time
25:17
Speaker 1: for your time.
25:17
Speaker 11: And your insights, you bet, Andrew, thank you.
25:22
Speaker 1: After the break, Green Senator Marrying Ferruki cries racism again
25:27
Speaker 1: and threatened se sue cartoonist for drawing her like this,
25:31
Speaker 1: But a new report puts it large to an anti
25:32
Speaker 1: Israel conspiracy theory by her, and even it seems the
25:37
Speaker 1: Armani's a government. Someone should buy some big girl pants
25:45
Speaker 1: for Green's deputy Marine Ferruki Deputy leader who seems unusually
25:49
Speaker 1: sensitive to criticism for someone so critical as self. And
25:53
Speaker 1: Farruki born in Pakistan's already suing One Nation leader paul
25:57
Speaker 1: In Hansen for suggesting she go back to where she
26:00
Speaker 1: came from if she really is so critical of Australia,
26:02
Speaker 1: a racist and all that, and al Farouki is threatened
26:05
Speaker 1: to sue Johannes Sleek, the Australian's Great Cartoonists, for drawing
26:09
Speaker 1: her allegedly white washing October seven, the day that Tamas
26:13
Speaker 1: Terras slaughtered twelve hundred Israelis beheaded, men, raped, women, kidnapped
26:18
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty people. Faruki says the cartoon is
26:21
Speaker 1: patently racist by design and effect, with the self evident
26:24
Speaker 1: intention of vilifying Feruki because of her race, color, and religion.
26:28
Speaker 1: I mean, really, that's now racist as well, that cartoon.
26:32
Speaker 1: But I wonder why Faruki is quite this outraged when
26:35
Speaker 1: she posted a picture of herself standing next to a
26:38
Speaker 1: woman with a sign calling for the world to be
26:40
Speaker 1: cleansed of Israel, cleaned of Israel, and this month refused
26:43
Speaker 1: even say on the ABC despite these five questions, whether
26:48
Speaker 1: hamas a terrorist, scripture of a role in a new
26:50
Speaker 1: Palestinian state. Now the Australian today said it's not backing down,
26:55
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying one may or the other if
26:57
Speaker 1: the cartoon is fair, her lawyers and all that. What
27:01
Speaker 1: I am saying though, to is Ferruki, Unlike more than
27:08
Speaker 1: ninety nine percent of Australians, Miss Ferruki, you have a
27:12
Speaker 1: platform where you can say what you like about anyone
27:16
Speaker 1: and anything and not be sued. It's called Parliament. You
27:21
Speaker 1: have total free speech there, and I think it is
27:25
Speaker 1: wrong to try to limit the already limited free speech
27:29
Speaker 1: that's left for the rest of us. But let's talk
27:36
Speaker 1: about anti Israel. His theory on the left and how
27:38
Speaker 1: it's today had been shown up by a report to
27:41
Speaker 1: our government that should be ashamed of itself. In April,
27:45
Speaker 1: an Australian aid worker Zomi Frankm was tragically killed in
27:49
Speaker 1: Gaza in a drone strike by Israel's army, the IDF,
27:53
Speaker 1: a drone strike on her aid convoy. Now, it was
27:56
Speaker 1: clearly a mistake and mentioned it at the time, and
28:00
Speaker 1: Israel fired two officers responsible who thought that thought the
28:04
Speaker 1: convoy was of Hamas terrorists. But the same Green Senator
28:08
Speaker 1: Marie in Ferruki claimed Israel had actually deliberately targeted aid
28:13
Speaker 1: workers and called it murder. The Prime Minister didn't go
28:17
Speaker 1: quite that far, but still too far, accusing Israel of
28:21
Speaker 1: breaking humanitarian law, saying Israel's explanations weren't good enough. He
28:25
Speaker 1: then sent former Defense Force chief Mark Binskin to Israel
28:29
Speaker 1: to investigate all this, as if Israel was covering up
28:32
Speaker 1: those wicked Israelis. But guess what. Binskin has now reportedly
28:38
Speaker 1: backed most of Israel's explanation, which was pretty self evident
28:42
Speaker 1: at the time, concluding it was indeed a terrible mistake
28:45
Speaker 1: made in the fog of war. But you got to
28:48
Speaker 1: ask why there is always this presumption by many on
28:52
Speaker 1: the left, including unions, that Israel is murderous, even likely
28:57
Speaker 1: to target aid workers. Well, Peter Lerner, he's visiting Australia
29:04
Speaker 1: to do something about this. He's a top official of
29:07
Speaker 1: Istra Dut, Israel's biggest, the most influential trade union social movement.
29:12
Speaker 1: He served in Israel's Defense forces for twenty five years
29:16
Speaker 1: and came back as a reservist to be an IDF
29:18
Speaker 1: spokesman for the first month of this world. We've interviewed
29:21
Speaker 1: him on the show before keep learning. Good to see
29:24
Speaker 1: you again. The left in Australia, in fact around the world,
29:28
Speaker 1: but the left here, including labor, including unions, they're getting
29:33
Speaker 1: very hofstile to Israel, very pro Palestinian. It's almost like
29:37
Speaker 1: a tribal thing. Really, why do you think that is?
29:43
Speaker 14: I think, first of all, there's a huge challenge in
29:47
Speaker 14: addressing the connections between Al Jazeera and tektok, And when
29:51
Speaker 14: you put two of those things together, you get a
29:53
Speaker 14: toxic report out blown out of proportion and zoomed in
29:58
Speaker 14: on the nature of war. And it is definitely there
30:02
Speaker 14: are tragedies throughout this war, but it creates and connects
30:05
Speaker 14: people to their most deepest emotions when they see tragic images. Unfortunately,
30:10
Speaker 14: they have a short memory. It was indeed Hamas that
30:14
Speaker 14: started the war, and it is Hamas that is paying
30:16
Speaker 14: dearly for the bad, poor decisions that they decided to
30:20
Speaker 14: attack Israel. And when I would say politicians around the
30:26
Speaker 14: world can't realize that when our democracy is under threat,
30:32
Speaker 14: and indeed our democracy in Israel is under threat from
30:36
Speaker 14: external players such as Hamas or Hezbala and Iran, then
30:41
Speaker 14: we need to rally around those that are under threat.
30:44
Speaker 1: I don't know whether you follow the Australian media at
30:47
Speaker 1: or Peter Learner, but you know, when there was that
30:51
Speaker 1: clearly accidental idea for tech on an AID convoy killing
30:55
Speaker 1: an Australian Zoe frankum Me frankem, there were allegations from
31:03
Speaker 1: the Greens, for instance, the implication was murder, and our
31:07
Speaker 1: own government said, only Israel's got hard questions to answer.
31:11
Speaker 1: Now there's a report by to the government saying well,
31:15
Speaker 1: actually we've had a look and you know, it does
31:18
Speaker 1: seem to be an accident. I mean, seriously, how do
31:21
Speaker 1: you deal with that sort of aggression of hostility.
31:27
Speaker 14: So I think what Israel did is we opened our
31:30
Speaker 14: arms and our doors and shared our information and allowed
31:38
Speaker 14: the investigation to come to the conclusion. We came to
31:42
Speaker 14: that it was a tragedy, tragedy in a state of war,
31:46
Speaker 14: and that like minded militaries like the Australian Air Force
31:49
Speaker 14: conducted similar operations. And that's why, you know, I understand
31:55
Speaker 14: that there is a frustration, and I think that's what
31:59
Speaker 14: Israel was.
32:00
Speaker 1: Very irregular.
32:02
Speaker 14: I can't imagine Australia opening the doors to an Israeli
32:07
Speaker 14: inquiry of a former chief of staff but we understand
32:09
Speaker 14: the importance. We understand and we're also sensitive towards the
32:12
Speaker 14: loss of civilian lives, and definitely, these humanitarian workers don't
32:17
Speaker 14: need to pay the price of war, and we need
32:19
Speaker 14: to do better in order to prevent that from happening.
32:21
Speaker 1: Heard your interview with the ABC's Patricia Carvelis, who has
32:28
Speaker 1: showed the antagonism of the left, and like many saying, well, look,
32:33
Speaker 1: in this war, the casualties are disproportionate. I don't quite
32:37
Speaker 1: get that. Is there some sort of rule that I've
32:40
Speaker 1: missed that if a mass starts a war by killing
32:46
Speaker 1: twelve hundred israelis that in that war, Israel can only
32:51
Speaker 1: inflict as many casualties as it itself suffers. So you know,
32:55
Speaker 1: you can't keep fighting if suddenly there are more Palestinians
33:01
Speaker 1: did in Israelis is that you're understanding this idea of proportionality, No.
33:07
Speaker 14: Of course, not proportionality weighs not on numbers, but on
33:11
Speaker 14: what the military advantage of the suspected target and its
33:15
Speaker 14: civilian effect that it will cause, and how to weigh
33:18
Speaker 14: those up based on what the commanders knew at the
33:20
Speaker 14: time and the precautions that were taken. In order to
33:23
Speaker 14: limit the civilian casualties and civilian impact. I would argue
33:28
Speaker 14: that Israel conducts its military affairs based on those proportions,
33:35
Speaker 14: on the principles and concepts of the laws of our conflict,
33:38
Speaker 14: including proportionality and distinguishing between civilians and non combatant in
33:43
Speaker 14: a way which goes beyond what most Western militaries do.
33:48
Speaker 14: You know, just we send text messages, we evacuate people
33:54
Speaker 14: from specific areas by announcing to the specific population this
33:59
Speaker 14: is where we go with a map that we design
34:02
Speaker 14: specifically for them, and infect What we're doing by distributing
34:07
Speaker 14: this type of information is announcing to hamas this is
34:10
Speaker 14: where we're going to mobilizers, so they have enough time
34:14
Speaker 14: to set their booby traps, to prepare their ambushes, to
34:18
Speaker 14: prepare their anti tank guided missile attack. So I would
34:22
Speaker 14: say we do a lot more than most militaries. I
34:24
Speaker 14: would say that it's based on colleagues from Western militaries
34:30
Speaker 14: from Sandhurst to West Point that have told me, Peter,
34:33
Speaker 14: you are setting a standard that most militaries can't live
34:37
Speaker 14: up to in the realm of warfare. That that is
34:40
Speaker 14: a fact. And you know, when you talk about proportionality,
34:43
Speaker 14: it's trying to weigh on the underlying fact that Israel
34:46
Speaker 14: is disproportionate, and I would say absolutely not. Israel is
34:50
Speaker 14: operating in a proportionate manner based on the realities of
34:53
Speaker 14: the ground and the very stark reality that Hamas has
34:56
Speaker 14: over the last seventeen years built a fortified position and
35:00
Speaker 14: in every location civilian location within the Gaza strip, jeopardizing
35:05
Speaker 14: the civilians intentionally, you see, Andrew. What they have done
35:09
Speaker 14: as a strategy is used civilian facilities like hospitals, like mosques,
35:16
Speaker 14: like schools, like the un facilities, UNRA facilities under the
35:20
Speaker 14: banners of the flags of the United Nations as their
35:24
Speaker 14: iron dome, as a protective system to endure and try
35:28
Speaker 14: and survive this war. I think there's a very clear
35:31
Speaker 14: understanding that and all decent people understand this. For there
35:35
Speaker 14: to be any sort of peace in this region, in
35:37
Speaker 14: the region, in Israel and with the Palestinians, Hamas have.
35:42
Speaker 1: To go absolutely right. And let us not forget that
35:45
Speaker 1: some of those facilities built with you in and a
35:49
Speaker 1: handouts that were pilfored that's Australian money as well Australian
35:53
Speaker 1: government money. Peter Lerner, I hope you get your message
35:56
Speaker 1: through here. Good luck, Thank you very much. Ray Labour's
36:02
Speaker 1: the latest excuse for not handing over the dodgy donations
36:05
Speaker 1: it took from a corrupt union.
36:08
Speaker 2: It being spent. It's not like they're sitting in a
36:10
Speaker 2: bank account waiting to be returned.
36:12
Speaker 1: That and more coming up under stunned by all the
36:20
Speaker 1: labor and union leaders now saying they had no idea
36:23
Speaker 1: the CFMU union, its construction arm could have been so
36:26
Speaker 1: corrupt until the media investigation this week told them. But
36:30
Speaker 1: the Liberals have just put together this ad, this time
36:33
Speaker 1: starring ACTU boss Sally McManus. That's devastating, Like.
36:39
Speaker 15: What evidence of this type of thing happening before. I'm
36:44
Speaker 15: genuinely shocked and absolutely furious about it.
36:49
Speaker 11: There'd be no way.
36:50
Speaker 15: We'd be sitting back and not acting if we knew
36:53
Speaker 15: this were the case.
36:53
Speaker 16: Do you really believe that the NOMU members have engaged
36:57
Speaker 16: in any of that behavior that's been repeatedly just as
37:00
Speaker 16: troubling to so many.
37:02
Speaker 15: Yes, I don't believe it to be directed to be directory.
37:04
Speaker 15: I do not believe it. I don't believe it because
37:07
Speaker 15: I know that union, I know what that union does.
37:09
Speaker 15: I think there's been a concerted campaign against the CFMU.
37:13
Speaker 1: In the ABBOC last night she said, well she had
37:15
Speaker 1: heard rumors about motorcycle games, but you know she told
37:19
Speaker 1: them the union and expected them to take over. I
37:21
Speaker 1: mean seriously joining me is the panel James in Ferson
37:24
Speaker 1: from the late debate here on scar News and Evelyn
37:26
Speaker 1: Ray Farmer and former policemen and Scarne News regular James,
37:31
Speaker 1: I'm stunned to see the Albanies, the government, Victorian government
37:33
Speaker 1: and the ACTU all say we had no idea the
37:36
Speaker 1: CFMUUS building the visual was corrupt or am I too harsh?
37:40
Speaker 3: Andrew you being far too harsh. I don't believe that
37:42
Speaker 3: they were corrupt. You shouldn't believe it either. And by
37:44
Speaker 3: the way, I've got a CFME you approved bridge to
37:46
Speaker 3: sell you if you're going to be that naive. There's
37:49
Speaker 3: been a stench around the CFMEU now for years, and
37:53
Speaker 3: it's only that that stench has reached everybody's nostrils that
37:56
Speaker 3: the alp have suddenly developed a sense of smell.
37:59
Speaker 17: This was a government that one.
38:01
Speaker 3: Of the first things they did was to get rid
38:02
Speaker 3: of the building industry watchdog, and now they act surprised
38:06
Speaker 3: that all, there were things happening that perhaps should have
38:08
Speaker 3: been watched. I don't believe their excuses for a moment,
38:11
Speaker 3: and no one should.
38:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, Evely, look you've had to deal with stolen property
38:17
Speaker 1: as a police officer. I should add the New South
38:21
Speaker 1: Wales Premier, it was ours today. If labor should give
38:24
Speaker 1: back the millions and millions of dollars it got from
38:26
Speaker 1: the CFMU dirty money, give it back, as I argue
38:30
Speaker 1: to the taxpayers are ripped off by the CFMU scams
38:33
Speaker 1: who push up the prices of the government infrastructure it
38:36
Speaker 1: was involved in that we have to pay for. Here
38:38
Speaker 1: is his answer.
38:40
Speaker 2: The affiliation fees that the CFMEU Construction Division have paid
38:45
Speaker 2: the New South Wales Labor Party had been spent. It's
38:48
Speaker 2: not like they're sitting in a bank account waiting to
38:50
Speaker 2: be returned. Now that's material because it means I would
38:53
Speaker 2: have to raise those funds in order to return them
38:56
Speaker 2: to the CFMU or to a charity or somewhere else.
39:00
Speaker 2: We don't have the capacity to do that, and I
39:02
Speaker 2: don't want to raise it from mums and dads.
39:06
Speaker 1: Evelyn. Is that a good enough excuse? Would you have
39:08
Speaker 1: bought it from a crook? That said, oh, look that
39:11
Speaker 1: stolen money our mate gave us. I'm sorry we spent it,
39:15
Speaker 1: so we're not going to return it.
39:17
Speaker 16: Honestly, you see this time and time again when it
39:20
Speaker 16: comes to this sort of thing, and unfortunately it's the
39:23
Speaker 16: people who haven't done anything wrong that seem to miss out.
39:27
Speaker 16: And it's such an injustice and I really dislike how
39:30
Speaker 16: that works across criminal justice system and across things like this.
39:33
Speaker 16: But you know, imagine the taxpayer did something like this
39:37
Speaker 16: come tax time. Oh sorry, sorry, I don't have enough
39:40
Speaker 16: tax to pay for my tax.
39:42
Speaker 17: Can you imagine the sort of.
39:44
Speaker 16: Outrage that the tax department.
39:46
Speaker 17: Would have on us.
39:47
Speaker 16: You know, I think that anyone who has burnt tax
39:50
Speaker 16: dollars should be held to the same standard as taxpayers,
39:54
Speaker 16: as you and I as people at home watching this.
39:57
Speaker 16: You know, they should work every center off just like
39:59
Speaker 16: we have to. I think whenever there's misuse of funds,
40:02
Speaker 16: whenever something has happened.
40:04
Speaker 17: It should be reimbursed, it should be given back.
40:06
Speaker 16: And it shouldn't always have to be up to the taxpayer.
40:09
Speaker 16: The innocent bystanders like us who have done nothing wrong,
40:12
Speaker 16: who have to clean up their mess.
40:15
Speaker 1: I'm sure most viewers would agree with you, But somehow
40:18
Speaker 1: labor politicians can't seem to see the argument here. James
40:22
Speaker 1: Joe Biden says has got COVID, but after he was
40:26
Speaker 1: tested positive. Now you remember, of course, he was part
40:29
Speaker 1: of that brigade that was everyone's got to wear a
40:32
Speaker 1: face mask in the COVID epidemic. Right, he couldn't come
40:34
Speaker 1: out in the election campaigns because you know, COVID face
40:39
Speaker 1: mask every this time, his picture getting back on his
40:41
Speaker 1: jet after it's been tested, jet back home with his
40:44
Speaker 1: face mask in his hand, not in his face, with
40:48
Speaker 1: staff and soldiers and Secret Service agents all around him,
40:52
Speaker 1: breathing in his air. What does that tell you?
40:55
Speaker 11: Andrew?
40:55
Speaker 3: I'm not sure what to make of that, but I
40:57
Speaker 3: do believe that he has COVID and it's going to
40:59
Speaker 3: be long COVID. He'll survive it, but his presidency will not.
41:04
Speaker 3: What an amazing thing that he suddenly developed COVID just
41:08
Speaker 3: days after saying the only way he drop out of
41:10
Speaker 3: the race is if a doctor said, really, fit the
41:12
Speaker 3: good of your health, you just can't do it. He
41:14
Speaker 3: now has the perfect excuse. At the same time, Might
41:17
Speaker 3: I add that Nancy Pelosi is showing him polling saying
41:20
Speaker 3: you can't win. Chuck Schumer is saying, hey, listen, you
41:23
Speaker 3: really need to consider a position.
41:25
Speaker 17: It's long.
41:25
Speaker 3: COVID he'll survive it, but his cap prayers, candidacy will not.
41:31
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, Evelyn. Though, there are people who
41:35
Speaker 1: are in the Democrats saying this is this is Bud's
41:38
Speaker 1: Trump moment, you know, surviving death, and I reckon it
41:42
Speaker 1: does give Budden a chance to do a Trump, you know,
41:44
Speaker 1: doesn't it In a way, if he beats COVID, he
41:47
Speaker 1: could also pose for a picture just like Trump shaking
41:50
Speaker 1: off his guards, helding his fist in the air. Fight fight, fight,
41:53
Speaker 1: I survived COVID.
41:56
Speaker 16: This is honestly the insanity that's coming out out of
42:00
Speaker 16: Biden's apologists. You know, the Democrat talking heads know and
42:06
Speaker 16: fear how heroic Donald Trump look. After he was attempted
42:10
Speaker 16: to be sassinated, he literally got shot in the head.
42:13
Speaker 16: Mind you were god easy, but still you know, and
42:15
Speaker 16: he the first thing that he did was stand up,
42:18
Speaker 16: put his fist in the in the air and say fight, fight, fight.
42:21
Speaker 16: And you know, these apologists, these Democrat apologists are just
42:25
Speaker 16: wetting the bed because they don't know how they can
42:28
Speaker 16: combat something so heroic. When you think about who you
42:30
Speaker 16: want as as your chief commander, who you want running
42:34
Speaker 16: the free world. You want someone who's shot in the
42:36
Speaker 16: head and who stands up and you know, basically looks
42:39
Speaker 16: down the barrel and says, you know you missed, mate,
42:42
Speaker 16: and I'm still going to fight for America. You don't
42:44
Speaker 16: want someone who's hiding under their bed, who's trying to
42:48
Speaker 16: run the free world on dementia.
42:51
Speaker 1: It's just not a please. He's in the bed nursing
42:56
Speaker 1: for a little COVID. Please, my dear person and Ray.
43:00
Speaker 1: Thank you so much to you both coming up. Believe
43:05
Speaker 1: it or not, this is our new London. It's not
43:08
Speaker 1: Karachio bag Dad. This is London. I'll talk to Patrick
43:11
Speaker 1: Christie's from London now. Plus I'll give you my book
43:15
Speaker 1: of the week after this. An extraordinary demonstration yesterday of
43:22
Speaker 1: how mass immigration has changed London. Thousands and thousands Muslim
43:27
Speaker 1: marching through the city, passed Downing Street as well, flying
43:31
Speaker 1: Palestinian flags, flying Islamic flags, and taking over some of
43:35
Speaker 1: the most famous streets and squares in the heart of
43:37
Speaker 1: the city to protest, to project power and to pray.
43:47
Speaker 1: All joining from London is Patrick Christie, star presenter of
43:56
Speaker 1: gb News. Patrick always great to see. What does this
44:00
Speaker 1: protist till you?
44:05
Speaker 17: Well, it tells us I think that something has gone
44:07
Speaker 17: quite badly wrong.
44:08
Speaker 11: Really.
44:09
Speaker 17: The man's about to be the vice president of America
44:12
Speaker 17: worried that Britain will become an Islamist country under labor.
44:15
Speaker 17: People laughed at him. Well they're not laughing now, are they.
44:18
Speaker 17: What we saw yesterday was really quite interesting. I think
44:21
Speaker 17: many people think that under the guise of a religious festival,
44:24
Speaker 17: this was actually quite an astonishing show of power and
44:28
Speaker 17: show of force. It also exposed two tier policing. So
44:32
Speaker 17: our police force made no arrest yesterday despite a man
44:34
Speaker 17: climbing on top of a London underground station and waving
44:37
Speaker 17: in Islamic flag. They did, however, put a borough wide
44:42
Speaker 17: anti social behavior order up when it came to England
44:46
Speaker 17: football fans who wanted to watch the Euro's finals. So
44:49
Speaker 17: the message is loud and clear really, which is that
44:51
Speaker 17: if you're an English football fan and you want to
44:53
Speaker 17: watch the game with your friends, you could get arrested.
44:56
Speaker 17: But if you want to gather alongside thousands of other
44:58
Speaker 17: people and bring central London to a screeching holt for
45:01
Speaker 17: an Islamic prayer festival in the middle of a working day.
45:05
Speaker 17: Then that is absolutely fine. But this is what we've
45:07
Speaker 17: come to expect, Andrew, from a police force that now
45:10
Speaker 17: openly releases statements saying things like diversity is our greatest strength.
45:15
Speaker 17: Can I also just point out that just behind where
45:17
Speaker 17: they were all praying there, it's Park Lane. So that's
45:19
Speaker 17: the that's the big one on the monopoly board, Andrew.
45:22
Speaker 17: That is now an illegal margrant camp. The strip of
45:25
Speaker 17: grass on Park Lane is now a camp full of
45:27
Speaker 17: illegal immigrants. That says a heck of a lot about
45:30
Speaker 17: Britain at the moment.
45:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, with immigration having been such a big topic in
45:36
Speaker 1: the last election campaign, what is this new labor government
45:39
Speaker 1: in Britain going to do about it? Mess immigration?
45:48
Speaker 17: Yeah, that they are. They are saying that they're going
45:50
Speaker 17: to do absolutely precious little. So they've already rode back
45:52
Speaker 17: on calls to reduce the number of foreign worker visas.
45:55
Speaker 17: They had an option to deport foreign criminals. Instead they're
45:59
Speaker 17: going to keep those people in Britain. They make up
46:01
Speaker 17: twelve percent of our prison population. Instead, they're just going
46:04
Speaker 17: to release people early to free up prison space when
46:07
Speaker 17: it comes to policing what's going on in the English Channel.
46:09
Speaker 17: They wanted to set up a new head of border force.
46:11
Speaker 17: The person they wanted to be the head of that
46:14
Speaker 17: border force with a man who openly described himself as
46:17
Speaker 17: being woke. He's now actually turned the job down. And
46:20
Speaker 17: their big solution is to increase stop and search for
46:23
Speaker 17: people who arrive here illegally. So that's great. If you
46:25
Speaker 17: arrive in Britain illegally and you're armed or you're carrying drugs,
46:28
Speaker 17: then will stop and search you, will take that off you,
46:30
Speaker 17: but we're not going to deport you. In the other
46:32
Speaker 17: aspect of this, Andrew, is that they are building new
46:35
Speaker 17: housing developments in Britain. We have a law that a
46:38
Speaker 17: percentage of those housing developments have to be social housing.
46:42
Speaker 17: What does that mean, Well, it means that now people
46:44
Speaker 17: who've just come to this country illegally under a labor
46:46
Speaker 17: government are probably going to be moved into not Margaret
46:50
Speaker 17: hotels anymore, but permanent accommodation dotted around the UK.
46:56
Speaker 1: That doesn't sound like much of a lur does at
46:58
Speaker 1: Patrick A nice if you managed to make it to Britain.
47:05
Speaker 17: Yeah, I know, what's the deterrent. There is absolutely no deterrent.
47:08
Speaker 17: We've already scrubbed the Ruanda plan, so there's absolutely zero
47:10
Speaker 17: deterrent there whatsoever. And our Prime minister now has a
47:14
Speaker 17: track record of not wanting to deport people. In fact,
47:17
Speaker 17: he signed a letter to get fifty people off a
47:21
Speaker 17: deportation flight scheduled to go to Jamaica. Unfortunately for the
47:25
Speaker 17: Prime minister, several of those people went on to commit
47:27
Speaker 17: further crimes, including one chap who went on to kill
47:30
Speaker 17: a man with a machete. So I suppose if you
47:32
Speaker 17: elect someone who's got those kind of views, then maybe
47:34
Speaker 17: this is the kind of behavior that you have to
47:36
Speaker 17: expect as a result of it.
47:39
Speaker 1: Well, Patrick, see London, Mullet's still there. Thank you so
47:42
Speaker 1: much indeed for your time and to take it from me.
47:46
Speaker 1: Just one tip today, and of course it's He'll bill
47:49
Speaker 1: the elogy by JD. Vance, who's just been picked this
47:52
Speaker 1: week by Donald Trump to be his vice president. She'll
47:54
Speaker 1: know any great book about how Vance, the son of
47:57
Speaker 1: a man with addiction issues no dad, broke out of
48:02
Speaker 1: that poverty and a hillbilly culture. We've got to talk
48:04
Speaker 1: about culture, how that affects poverty too. To become a marine,
48:08
Speaker 1: a top student at Yale, the venture capitalist, and now
48:11
Speaker 1: this there's no self pity, there's just self improvement. That
48:15
Speaker 1: is the theme. Drag yourself up, break free, You can
48:19
Speaker 1: do it. I think it's very inspiring and certainly worth
48:24
Speaker 1: a read in these times of victim culture and identity politics.
48:27
Speaker 1: As always, you can order the book through my friends
48:29
Speaker 1: at Robinson's Bookshop. They've got a link at the left
48:32
Speaker 1: of their home screen to all my book tips, so
48:36
Speaker 1: go there. Coming up next, there's my friend again, Steve
48:40
Speaker 1: Price is really irregularly here hosting Sharry from me though.
48:44
Speaker 1: Good night,
