- 0:10Speaker 1: Jim is the goold reform it.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Well, good evening and welcome to the Bolt Report. I'm
- 0:16Speaker 2: James Macpherson coming up tonight. The assassination of conservative commentator
- 0:20Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk has shocked the world, but why are some
- 0:24Speaker 2: on the left celebrating? More on that in a moment,
- 0:27Speaker 2: Senator Jacinta Nampa jimpa Price responds to her axing from
- 0:30Speaker 2: the liberal front bench. Barnaby Joyce will join me to
- 0:33Speaker 2: discuss plus revelations. The Albanezi and New South Wales labor
- 0:37Speaker 2: governments helped fund a controversial Islamic center in Sydney, what
- 0:42Speaker 2: they wouldn't do for a vote, and the UK could
- 0:45Speaker 2: face a hefty reparations bill if demands from African leaders
- 0:49Speaker 2: wanting compensation for slavery. A met Patrick Christie's on that
- 0:53Speaker 2: a little later in the program, but first, watching the
- 0:57Speaker 2: reaction to Charlie Kirk's assassination, I couldn't help but be
- 1:00Speaker 2: reminded of the great Christian apologist C. S. Lewis, who
- 1:03Speaker 2: once quipped, my prayer is that when I die, all
- 1:06Speaker 2: of Hell rejoices that I'm out of the fight. Well,
- 1:10Speaker 2: Hell certainly broke out the Champagne This morning, Christian activist
- 1:15Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk was shot dead while addressing students in Utah,
- 1:18Speaker 2: and you could practically hear the demons popping corks and
- 1:21Speaker 2: a warning. Like me, you'll find these social media posts
- 1:25Speaker 2: utterly disgusting.
- 1:28Speaker 3: Hey, so Charlie Kirk just got shot.
- 1:31Speaker 4: Maybe there are good guys with guns out there.
- 1:33Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk is officially looking up at us, and I'm
- 1:36Speaker 5: about to head to the grocery store because I'm making
- 1:38Speaker 5: ribs tonight.
- 1:38Speaker 3: Oh but he was a man with a wave and kids.
- 1:41Speaker 4: Yeah, and now they're safe from him.
- 1:48Speaker 3: I'm I'm not happy about this news.
- 1:56Speaker 6: It's so unfortunate.
- 2:06Speaker 7: You or to wear so stoked.
- 2:09Speaker 2: Go ahead and google Charlie Kirk. Go ahead, go ahead,
- 2:13Speaker 2: read read the Leader's headlines and you'll see why I'm
- 2:16Speaker 2: so Yeah. If you never believed in demons, well maybe
- 2:21Speaker 2: now you do. I'll stop there, not because the material
- 2:23Speaker 2: dries up, but because we don't have the three hours
- 2:26Speaker 2: to catalog the gleeful, wickedness of progressives pretending to be
- 2:30Speaker 2: human while celebrating the murder of a husband, a father,
- 2:33Speaker 2: and the worst of all in their eyes, an effective conservative,
- 2:37Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk was a Christian, a conservative, and a very
- 2:41Speaker 2: good debater. In fact, he was too good.
- 2:45Speaker 7: I was born as a man and now I'm a woman.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Okay, No, but you don't become a woman just because
- 2:49Speaker 1: you dress like a woman. So let me ask you
- 2:51Speaker 1: a question. If I wear a disguise or a costume,
- 2:53Speaker 1: do I become that thing? For example, if I dress
- 2:56Speaker 1: with a sombrero and start talking to the Mexican accent,
- 2:59Speaker 1: do I then be that culture?
- 3:01Speaker 7: No? No, because that's different race.
- 3:04Speaker 1: Okay, how is it different? Because you're saying that if
- 3:07Speaker 1: you dress a certain way and you present a certain way,
- 3:10Speaker 1: you can be as you think you are.
- 3:11Speaker 2: Why can't I also just choose what culture I am.
- 3:14Speaker 7: Because you were born with in a culture you were born.
- 3:18Speaker 1: With, but you were born as a man.
- 3:23Speaker 2: That was typical Charlie Kirk. All he ever did was
- 3:26Speaker 2: have conversations with people. He didn't insult anyone. He made
- 3:30Speaker 2: arguments well, his opponents couldn't beat him in an argument,
- 3:33Speaker 2: and today he paid for that with his life. The
- 3:36Speaker 2: day began innocently enough. A crowd of three thousand students
- 3:40Speaker 2: gathered to ask Charlie Kirk questions about everything from faith
- 3:43Speaker 2: to gender, politics here. He was giving out magahats at
- 3:47Speaker 2: the event as it was about to start, little realizing
- 3:51Speaker 2: these would be his final moments on Earth. Just minutes
- 4:09Speaker 2: after those scenes, while answering a question about transgendered shooters,
- 4:13Speaker 2: he himself was shot dead by what authorities believe was
- 4:17Speaker 2: a sniper positioned on a rooftop about one hundred and
- 4:20Speaker 2: eighty meters away. And I need to warn you this
- 4:22Speaker 2: is distressing footage counting not coming.
- 4:25Speaker 3: Get Oh my God, run.
- 4:38Speaker 2: Fox News broke into their normal programming to announce the
- 4:41Speaker 2: thirty one year old conservative had been killed.
- 4:45Speaker 8: Charlie Kirk, according to the President of the United States,
- 4:49Speaker 8: his dad, I don't really know where you go from here.
- 4:58Speaker 8: I don't know where we go from here in a
- 4:59Speaker 8: news program. I don't know where we go from here
- 5:02Speaker 8: in America. I don't know what's left for us as
- 5:07Speaker 8: a country to discuss when even a discussion and a
- 5:09Speaker 8: debate over the issues results in violence that leads to
- 5:11Speaker 8: the death of a good man in this country.
- 5:15Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk, who founded the Turning Point USA organization, was
- 5:19Speaker 2: hugely influential among young people, was personally responsible for so
- 5:23Speaker 2: many young adults getting behind the mega movement for them,
- 5:26Speaker 2: this will be their JFK moment.
- 5:29Speaker 9: It was just a lot of love and joying kindness,
- 5:31Speaker 9: you know. And then the next person came up, and
- 5:33Speaker 9: it almost it almost felt like a cue to me
- 5:35Speaker 9: because they talked about transgender gun violence. And then as
- 5:39Speaker 9: the guy said shooting or shooters or something like that,
- 5:43Speaker 9: you just hear the gunshot and I'm sorry.
- 5:47Speaker 10: You.
- 5:49Speaker 9: Just see his neck just like open up, and there's
- 5:52Speaker 9: just like so much blood that just came out.
- 5:55Speaker 2: It was horrible.
- 5:57Speaker 9: And all I felt was like everybody bringing me down
- 5:59Speaker 9: to the ground and I was sorry. I just all
- 6:05Speaker 9: I hear is screaming, and I see people running, and
- 6:07Speaker 9: I'm like, it's not safe to run, It's not safe
- 6:09Speaker 9: to get up. It's not And all I'm saying is
- 6:11Speaker 9: please God, Please God, Please God, because I don't want
- 6:13Speaker 9: to die at or anybody else today. I think I
- 6:15Speaker 9: just saw God.
- 6:16Speaker 3: You know.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Meanwhile, the left were busy cackling like hyaenas.
- 6:31Speaker 11: I'm not saying she deserves it did, but I'm saying
- 6:34Speaker 11: God's timing is always right.
- 6:45Speaker 2: The great Catholic preacher Fulton Sheen warned that when truth
- 6:48Speaker 2: is denied, hatred grows and when hatred grows, reason fails,
- 6:53Speaker 2: and when reason fails, violence follows. That's as accurate as
- 6:58Speaker 2: summary as I can find as to where we find
- 7:00Speaker 2: ourselves in Western culture right now. Charlie Kirk was shot
- 7:04Speaker 2: dead because he dared to speak truths that our culture
- 7:07Speaker 2: now deems unacceptable. Life is sacred, even in the womb.
- 7:12Speaker 2: Gender is not something you make up. It's a fixed
- 7:14Speaker 2: biological reality. There's a God in heaven to whom we
- 7:18Speaker 2: must all give account. All of these propositions taught by
- 7:23Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk imply objective truth. In other words, there is
- 7:27Speaker 2: a God, and if God is God, then we're not.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk wasn't hated for his politics. He was hated
- 7:34Speaker 2: for reminding people that they are not the center of
- 7:36Speaker 2: their own universe. The West doesn't have a gun problem.
- 7:40Speaker 2: The West has a spiritual problem. And if you think
- 7:43Speaker 2: that sounds extreme, consider the reactions to Charlie Kirk's murder.
- 7:48Speaker 2: Let me show you one more. And the reason I
- 7:49Speaker 2: want you to see these reactions, horrible as they are,
- 7:53Speaker 2: is because I think it's important to highlight that something
- 7:56Speaker 2: quite evil has infected Western culture. These reactions are not rational.
- 8:00Speaker 2: That's for sure, but worryingly, they are so numerous that
- 8:04Speaker 2: they can't be dismissed as just a few idiots. They
- 8:07Speaker 2: represent nothing less than a growing complicity with darkness, people
- 8:12Speaker 2: who so despise the idea of truth that they actually
- 8:16Speaker 2: celebrate the murder of anyone who dares to speak it.
- 8:20Speaker 12: We can all celebrate because something really awful happened to
- 8:23Speaker 12: a really really awful guy. And again, if you're one
- 8:27Speaker 12: of those people that are like, no matter what happens,
- 8:30Speaker 12: you should never wish death on to I'm going to
- 8:33Speaker 12: cheer and dance and sing thank you very much.
- 8:37Speaker 2: A culture that denies objective truth is doomed to become
- 8:41Speaker 2: a culture of increasing frustration, because the lie that replaces
- 8:45Speaker 2: truth by definition can never satisfy no matter what it is,
- 8:49Speaker 2: and people who cling to falsehoods are forced to rage
- 8:52Speaker 2: against anyone who reminds them of what they've rejected. As
- 8:55Speaker 2: hatred grows, reason fails. A mind twisted by resentment doesn't
- 9:00Speaker 2: want to understand, It only wants to justify, so arguments
- 9:04Speaker 2: cease to be about finding the truth and become about
- 9:07Speaker 2: crushing all opposition. In that climate, well, debate becomes impossible,
- 9:13Speaker 2: and once people lose the capacity to reason together. The
- 9:16Speaker 2: only way left to resolve conflict is through force. That
- 9:20Speaker 2: is the predictable end of denying truth. Hatred replaces love,
- 9:25Speaker 2: emotion replaces thought, and violence replaces dialogue. Every culture that
- 9:30Speaker 2: abandons truth eventually reaps this bitter harvest. Is MSNBC political
- 9:36Speaker 2: analyst Matthew Dowd all but suggesting Charlie Kirk had it coming.
- 9:42Speaker 13: He's been one of the most divasive, especially divisive younger
- 9:46Speaker 13: figures in this who is constantly sort of pushing this
- 9:50Speaker 13: sort of hate speech or sort of aimed at certain groups.
- 9:53Speaker 13: I always got back to hateful fights lead to hateful words,
- 9:59Speaker 13: which the lead to hateful actions. And I think that's
- 10:03Speaker 13: the environment we're in that people just you can't start
- 10:06Speaker 13: with these sort of awful thoughts you have and then
- 10:09Speaker 13: saying these awful words and not expect awful actions to
- 10:12Speaker 13: take place.
- 10:15Speaker 2: These people have no shame. They stir up crazies to
- 10:18Speaker 2: kill conservatives and then blame it on the conservatives. You're
- 10:22Speaker 2: in Australia. The Chaser website went with this are you okay?
- 10:26Speaker 9: Day?
- 10:26Speaker 2: Not going well at turning point? Unbelievable. The US House
- 10:32Speaker 2: of Representatives held a moment's silence in memory of Charlie Kirk.
- 10:35Speaker 2: But when someone suggested that a prayer should be said aloud, well,
- 10:40Speaker 2: all hell broke loose.
- 10:42Speaker 7: The house of being order.
- 10:48Speaker 14: We will joined for prayer right after this. Okay, the
- 10:53Speaker 14: chare lays before the house of communication, the house will
- 11:00Speaker 14: be in order.
- 11:07Speaker 2: Like I said, there are a lot of problems in
- 11:09Speaker 2: the Western world, but at the root of them all
- 11:12Speaker 2: will it's spiritual.
- 11:13Speaker 12: Us.
- 11:14Speaker 2: Democrats will fight for the rights of men identifying as
- 11:16Speaker 2: women to read stories to children, but they'll back like
- 11:19Speaker 2: dogs at the suggestion that perhaps it might be time
- 11:22Speaker 2: to reach out to God. I'll give the final word
- 11:25Speaker 2: to Charlie Kirk.
- 11:27Speaker 15: The spiritual battle is coming to the West, and the
- 11:30Speaker 15: enemies are Wokeism, re Marxism combining with Islamism to go
- 11:34Speaker 15: after what we call the American way of life. And
- 11:37Speaker 15: the American way of life is very simple. I want
- 11:40Speaker 15: to be able to get married, buy a home, have kids,
- 11:43Speaker 15: allow them to ride their bike till the sun goes down,
- 11:46Speaker 15: send them to a good school, have a low crime neighborhood.
- 11:50Speaker 15: Not to have my kid be taught the lesbian, gay,
- 11:53Speaker 15: transgender garbage in their school.
- 11:57Speaker 3: While also.
- 12:00Speaker 15: While also not having them have to hear the Muslim
- 12:04Speaker 15: call to prayer five times a day.
- 12:07Speaker 3: That's important.
- 12:09Speaker 15: We want the American way of life, which is by
- 12:12Speaker 15: the way Christendom, Christians, our sacrifice, our toil, our vision,
- 12:19Speaker 15: the outgrowth of the scriptures gave us Western civilization. And
- 12:23Speaker 15: this is where I think is a great rally. And
- 12:24Speaker 15: crime doesn't matter if you're Hispanic, doesn't matter, if you're Asian,
- 12:28Speaker 15: doesn't matter if you're black or white, everybody. If you
- 12:30Speaker 15: are Christian and Jesus Christ is your Lord and savior,
- 12:33Speaker 15: these two threats are combining forces to come after us,
- 12:37Speaker 15: and it's time that the Church stands and rises up
- 12:39Speaker 15: against it.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Actually, let me give the final thought to Charlie Kirk's widow, Erica.
- 12:45Speaker 2: She released this statement today, quoting from Jewish King David
- 12:49Speaker 2: in Psalm forty six, verse one, she wrote, God is
- 12:52Speaker 2: our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
- 12:57Speaker 2: You know, even if you're not a believer, you should
- 12:59Speaker 2: want that to be true. God knows the West needs
- 13:02Speaker 2: him well. I'm joined now by the host of Brad
- 13:10Speaker 2: Versus Everyone podcast, Bred Palumbo Bread. Thanks for joining me.
- 13:14Speaker 2: Not very early in the morning, there. You've disagreed with
- 13:17Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk many times over the years, but I've always
- 13:20Speaker 2: had a deep respect for him. Tell me why.
- 13:24Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 13:25Speaker 16: Look, I'm still, like many people, honestly in shock at
- 13:28Speaker 16: this uniquely horrifying and evil event that happened here killing
- 13:34Speaker 16: of Charlie Kirk. Charlie's somebody who I've known a little
- 13:37Speaker 16: bit over the years, I've gone back and forth with.
- 13:40Speaker 16: He's been an ever present in the right of center
- 13:43Speaker 16: media landscape here in the US, and he always when
- 13:48Speaker 16: you think about what Charlie Kirk has known for, what
- 13:51Speaker 16: is it debates, discourse, and dialogue. It's for setting up
- 13:56Speaker 16: a chair, going to these college campuses and letting people
- 14:00Speaker 16: say whatever they think to him. And often he would
- 14:03Speaker 16: even admonish his fans, please be respectful of this person,
- 14:08Speaker 16: be civil, be courteous to this person. And when those
- 14:11Speaker 16: people would freak out at him, even he would keep
- 14:13Speaker 16: it cool and keep it respectful for the most part.
- 14:16Speaker 16: So I think Charlie Kirk's legacy will go down as
- 14:19Speaker 16: a honestly a free speech murder, because he, more than
- 14:25Speaker 16: anything stood for that value of open discourse, debate, and dialogue.
- 14:30Speaker 16: And most likely I mean if that's why he was
- 14:34Speaker 16: killed and taken from us far too early. I'm horrified.
- 14:37Speaker 16: We'll have to wait for the final details, of course,
- 14:39Speaker 16: but it sure seems like that.
- 14:44Speaker 2: For people who might not fully appreciate just how impactful
- 14:48Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk was in the United States, just help us
- 14:51Speaker 2: here in Australia understand exactly who has been lost and
- 14:55Speaker 2: what has been lost with his assassination.
- 14:59Speaker 16: Well, not only was Charlie Kirk, of course, first and
- 15:01Speaker 16: foremost a human and a father and a husband, but
- 15:05Speaker 16: he built, honestly, whether you agree with them or not,
- 15:08Speaker 16: one of the most successful political organizing groups in America
- 15:13Speaker 16: turning Point USA. This multi multi, multi, multi million dollar
- 15:18Speaker 16: group that has chapters on almost every college campus, that
- 15:22Speaker 16: does massive events, and it made him sort of a
- 15:25Speaker 16: guru for young people. He also was a social media genius.
- 15:30Speaker 16: When you talk to young people who are maybe under
- 15:33Speaker 16: twenty five or under thirty, and where do they get
- 15:36Speaker 16: their right of center perspectives from Charlie Kirk from his
- 15:40Speaker 16: massive viral TikTok videos and YouTube clips and podcasts. So
- 15:44Speaker 16: he was ahead of his time in the conservative media landscape,
- 15:49Speaker 16: and he left that lasting imprint. I mean, the people,
- 15:52Speaker 16: particularly online, who are just shocked and heartbroken right now.
- 15:56Speaker 16: A lot of them are very young because his demographic
- 15:59Speaker 16: of people that he influenced pretty profoundly actually was a
- 16:03Speaker 16: very young one. So that means he'll have an impact
- 16:05Speaker 16: for decades and decades to come.
- 16:10Speaker 2: Police are still searching for the killer. What can you
- 16:13Speaker 2: tell us as to where that is at.
- 16:17Speaker 16: Well, Frankly, it's been a bit of a mess. They
- 16:19Speaker 16: have arrested and released multiple suspects, so you can assume
- 16:25Speaker 16: that that means that that's they arrested the wrong person,
- 16:30Speaker 16: and they've put out some updates prematurely that they probably
- 16:33Speaker 16: should have sat on. I think, frankly, this is what's
- 16:38Speaker 16: happening is people are getting ahead of their skis because
- 16:41Speaker 16: everybody wants to find the evil monster that did this,
- 16:46Speaker 16: and I have to hope and pray that they will.
- 16:49Speaker 16: I mean, in this current age, how somebody could get
- 16:51Speaker 16: away with this when we have footage, we have cameras everywhere.
- 16:55Speaker 16: But as of the last reports that I've seen, the
- 16:58Speaker 16: suspect remains it large. It's quite early in the morning here,
- 17:01Speaker 16: so it's possible something has changed in the last few hours. Well,
- 17:04Speaker 16: I was asleep, but We're all rooting for this person
- 17:09Speaker 16: to be brought to justice. Mainstream political leaders here from
- 17:12Speaker 16: the Democratic Party, of course, the Republican Party are all
- 17:15Speaker 16: speaking in one voice on this. This is unacceptable. This
- 17:19Speaker 16: is not America, this is not who we are.
- 17:24Speaker 2: Let me play you a little bit of what President
- 17:26Speaker 2: Donald Trump had to say when he addressed the nation
- 17:29Speaker 2: a little earlier. Have listened.
- 17:31Speaker 10: So I'm filled with grief and anger at the heinous
- 17:34Speaker 10: assassination of Charlie Kirk on a college campus in Utah.
- 17:40Speaker 10: Charlie inspired millions, and tonight all who knew him and
- 17:44Speaker 10: loved him are united in shock and horror. For years,
- 17:48Speaker 10: those on the radical left have compared wonderful Americans like
- 17:53Speaker 10: Charlie to Nazis and the world's worst mass murderers and criminals.
- 17:59Speaker 10: This kind of rhetoric is directly responsible for the terrorism
- 18:04Speaker 10: that we're seeing in our country today, and it must
- 18:07Speaker 10: stop right now. Tonight, they ask all Americans to commit
- 18:12Speaker 10: themselves to the American values for which Charlie Kirk lived
- 18:15Speaker 10: and died, the values of free speech, citizenship, the rule
- 18:21Speaker 10: of law, and the patriotic devotion and love of God.
- 18:26Speaker 10: Charlie was the best of America and the monster who
- 18:29Speaker 10: attacked him was attacking our whole country.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Brad. This one's kind of personal for Donald Trump because
- 18:36Speaker 2: he and Charlie Kirk were actually quite close.
- 18:40Speaker 16: Yeah, they were. I mean, they had a very close relationship.
- 18:44Speaker 16: Charlie was been a close supporter of Trump for many,
- 18:47Speaker 16: many years, and I mean, I'm sure he's as shocked
- 18:50Speaker 16: as anyone by this. No one saw this coming. I mean,
- 18:54Speaker 16: political violence has been a problem in the US in
- 18:58Speaker 16: recent years, but it's large virtually focused on people in power,
- 19:02Speaker 16: political officials. For example. The idea of going after a
- 19:06Speaker 16: political commentator whose only crime is speaking his mind about
- 19:12Speaker 16: this country is so anathema everything we believe in America,
- 19:17Speaker 16: every value our country was founded on.
- 19:20Speaker 15: That.
- 19:20Speaker 16: It's a shocking and horrible thing. And you can tell
- 19:23Speaker 16: Trump's rattled up by it, and rightfully so, honestly, and
- 19:28Speaker 16: he's right that the temperature needs to come down on
- 19:31Speaker 16: the rhetoric in American politics. We've got to stop calling
- 19:36Speaker 16: everyone who disagrees with us. If you're on the left,
- 19:38Speaker 16: everyone's a nazi, everyone's a racist, bigot, sexist, whatever.
- 19:42Speaker 10: On the right.
- 19:43Speaker 16: You know, if everyone on the left hates America is
- 19:46Speaker 16: evil is going to destroy the country. We've all got
- 19:49Speaker 16: to calm down the rhetoric and stop the alarmism and
- 19:53Speaker 16: remember to see the common humanity between our fellow citizens,
- 19:56Speaker 16: because that's what brings us together.
- 19:59Speaker 2: Absolutely, you're totally right, Brat Palumbo. I appreciate you coming
- 20:02Speaker 2: on the program. I know it's very early there. Thanks
- 20:05Speaker 2: for your time. We're going to go to a break,
- 20:07Speaker 2: but stick around. Coming up in just a moment all
- 20:09Speaker 2: the latest news with Nationals MP Barnaby Joyce. Welcome back
- 20:16Speaker 2: to the program. Joining me now is National's MP Barnaby Joyce. Barnaby,
- 20:20Speaker 2: great to have you on the program. A lot to
- 20:22Speaker 2: talk about. But before we get to the other news,
- 20:25Speaker 2: I got to ask you your reaction to the tragic
- 20:28Speaker 2: assassination of Charlie kirk.
- 20:31Speaker 17: Well. Obviously Charlie's more a US phenomenon than an Australian one.
- 20:36Speaker 17: But of course what really shocks me is what you
- 20:39Speaker 17: showed at the start these people in stead of in
- 20:41Speaker 17: glee glee at the murder of a man who's married
- 20:46Speaker 17: with kids, I mean, how does that work? I mean,
- 20:49Speaker 17: how are you for sort of all the progressive movement
- 20:52Speaker 17: of peace the climate, looking after the whales and the
- 20:56Speaker 17: murdering of an innocent individual on a public stage. And
- 21:00Speaker 17: to combine all those together, I mean, Charlie Kirk had
- 21:04Speaker 17: every right to have the political views he had and
- 21:07Speaker 17: to convey them in a peaceful manner. And you know,
- 21:12Speaker 17: a lot of those views have to be honest. I
- 21:14Speaker 17: agree with doesn't mean I agree with all of them.
- 21:17Speaker 17: But someone should be allowed to convey batpoo crazy lefty
- 21:23Speaker 17: ideas without being shot, and someone should be allowed to
- 21:26Speaker 17: convey the ideas of the right without being shot. You know,
- 21:31Speaker 17: it's a really dangerous game to play when you say
- 21:34Speaker 17: if I don't like you, I'll kill you.
- 21:38Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 21:39Speaker 2: Absolutely couldn't agree more. Let's get on to Australian news.
- 21:43Speaker 2: Susan Lee has made a formal apology to the Indian
- 21:46Speaker 2: community for comments now dumped Senator just Sint Nampajimba Price
- 21:51Speaker 2: made have a.
- 21:52Speaker 18: Listened, But may I take this opportunity as leader of
- 21:55Speaker 18: the Liberal Party to apologize to all Indian Australians and
- 22:01Speaker 18: indeed others who were hurt and distressed by the comments
- 22:05Speaker 18: that were made.
- 22:07Speaker 2: Barnaby. Susan Lee took eight days to issue that apology.
- 22:11Speaker 2: Is she sorry for the offense or is she sorry
- 22:13Speaker 2: for the damage it's done to her party?
- 22:16Speaker 3: A lot of the things. We've got to move on.
- 22:18Speaker 17: I mean, this is just you know, this is longer
- 22:20Speaker 17: than quovartis this episode.
- 22:22Speaker 3: It's just move on. I'm absolutely certain.
- 22:27Speaker 17: That Indians are very resilient people, as are New Zealanders
- 22:31Speaker 17: and English and Nigerians and Croatians and Serbians.
- 22:36Speaker 3: They're resilient people.
- 22:38Speaker 17: And I don't think they're all sort of crying in
- 22:40Speaker 17: their porridge and prostrating themselves on beds of nails by
- 22:45Speaker 17: reason of the comments of Senator Price. Look Santa Price
- 22:49Speaker 17: has said they're clumsy, and yeah, they should have been
- 22:51Speaker 17: apologized to right at the very start and wipe.
- 22:53Speaker 3: This thing out.
- 22:54Speaker 17: But now it just goes on and on and on
- 22:57Speaker 17: like it's you know, it's honest to goodness. I mean,
- 23:00Speaker 17: have a look at other countries and do you really
- 23:02Speaker 17: think I mean, President Trump said what Haitians they're eating
- 23:06Speaker 17: their cats and their dogs.
- 23:07Speaker 3: I mean, what are you going to say about that.
- 23:13Speaker 2: Senator Price issued a statement after being dumped. She said,
- 23:17Speaker 2: and I quote, this has been a disappointing episode for
- 23:20Speaker 2: the Liberal Party. I'll learn from it. Others will learn
- 23:23Speaker 2: from it too. So I want to ask you, Barnaby,
- 23:26Speaker 2: what are the lessons here for Senor Price and second
- 23:29Speaker 2: for the Liberal Party.
- 23:31Speaker 17: Look, in politics, we will make mistakes. God I could
- 23:35Speaker 17: write a book on them.
- 23:36Speaker 3: I probably may.
- 23:36Speaker 17: And I've got a lot more mistakes to make, so
- 23:38Speaker 17: I look forward to them. But you know, you deal
- 23:41Speaker 17: with it and move on, and everybody else should move
- 23:44Speaker 17: on to because otherwise, just like we're doing right now,
- 23:48Speaker 17: I have got much bigger problems about where I was today,
- 23:52Speaker 17: which is Lower Creek, and they're gonna stop using timber
- 23:56Speaker 17: from there and turn it into a Kowala park. Now,
- 23:59Speaker 17: I got a big p with that. I've got a
- 24:00Speaker 17: vastly bigger problem with that. They've got problems with the
- 24:02Speaker 17: intermittent power they're going to put all over the countryside
- 24:05Speaker 17: of you. They've got problems with pensioners who can't afford
- 24:07Speaker 17: their power bills, cost of living going through the roof,
- 24:09Speaker 17: and China breathing down our neck. I've got lots of
- 24:12Speaker 17: things to worry about rather than what someone said a
- 24:14Speaker 17: week ago, which really is just a nuance of what
- 24:17Speaker 17: they possibly should have said.
- 24:18Speaker 2: In the end case, good advice. I hope the liberals
- 24:23Speaker 2: take it on board, all right. I want to talk
- 24:25Speaker 2: about the Prime Minister, because god knows the opposition aren't.
- 24:28Speaker 2: They're talking about themselves. But Anthony Albanesi has just finished
- 24:31Speaker 2: meeting with Pacific Island leaders and he had plenty of
- 24:35Speaker 2: important issues on front of mind, but clearly not his wardrobe.
- 24:38Speaker 2: After meeting started, he came away more determined than ever
- 24:42Speaker 2: that it's his role to save the region. Have a
- 24:45Speaker 2: listen Pacific island nations.
- 24:48Speaker 6: For many of them, climate change is an esubstantial threat
- 24:52Speaker 6: to their very existence. That's why action on climate change
- 24:57Speaker 6: is the entry fee to credibility in this region.
- 25:03Speaker 2: Barnaby, do you agree with Anthony Albanesi that climate change
- 25:06Speaker 2: is an existential threat to Pacific island nations or is
- 25:09Speaker 2: it just a very convenient entry fee that Antony Albanzi
- 25:12Speaker 2: seems only to we get to pay with our money.
- 25:15Speaker 17: Communist China is an existential threat to us, and I
- 25:18Speaker 17: agree with mister Alberanzi one hundred percent that we've got
- 25:22Speaker 17: to make sure we keep the Pacific Islands on board,
- 25:24Speaker 17: because otherwise we'll have encirclement of Australia and we'll be
- 25:27Speaker 17: in more strife than well as I say the early settlers.
- 25:32Speaker 17: You got Solomon Islands who is not working out well
- 25:37Speaker 17: with their attachment to China Vanawatu where it's doubtful. This
- 25:42Speaker 17: is not good for us, So I understand the strategic issues.
- 25:47Speaker 17: They're one hundred percent as to all people who have
- 25:50Speaker 17: been in senior office. As far as us being able
- 25:54Speaker 17: to change the climate, no, we can't sorry about that.
- 25:59Speaker 17: That is a question that goes to a much higher
- 26:02Speaker 17: salary level than what we have here. We are not
- 26:05Speaker 17: making any difference to the climate whatsoever, nor is there
- 26:09Speaker 17: any prospect that Australia is going to make any difference
- 26:11Speaker 17: to the climate whatsoever. But we can make ourselves weak.
- 26:14Speaker 17: We can put ourselves out of business, which we are doing.
- 26:16Speaker 17: We are doing. We seem to be relishing the job
- 26:18Speaker 17: of closing down our plastics industry down to two Aura refineries,
- 26:22Speaker 17: putting our steel industry on its knees, putting our aluminium
- 26:25Speaker 17: industry on its knees. Record in solvencies and small business
- 26:29Speaker 17: power prices through the roof cost of living out of control,
- 26:33Speaker 17: and our countryside wreck with intermitted power precinct swindle factories
- 26:38Speaker 17: for which the greatest beneficiaries will not be the Pacific Islanders,
- 26:41Speaker 17: but be domestic billionaires and international companies such as Petross,
- 26:46Speaker 17: one of.
- 26:46Speaker 3: The biggest polluters in the world and BP.
- 26:49Speaker 17: It's completely insane and no, we are going to have
- 26:52Speaker 17: no effect on the climate whatsoever.
- 26:56Speaker 2: Barnaby Joyce. I appreciate your time this evening. Thank you.
- 26:59Speaker 2: Well well, it's been revealed that both the Albanezi and
- 27:03Speaker 2: New South Wales labor governments helped to fund a Sydney
- 27:06Speaker 2: Islamic Center, one of whose clerics preached alongside around Supreme Leader,
- 27:11Speaker 2: as well as Hesbalalink speakers who vowed that Israel would
- 27:16Speaker 2: be erased from the history books. The Department of Home
- 27:19Speaker 2: Affairs no less, gave three hundred thousand dollars in grants,
- 27:23Speaker 2: while the Min's government last year provided forty thousand dollars.
- 27:27Speaker 2: Joining me is my panel Jimma Tognini from GT Communications
- 27:31Speaker 2: and Skynews contributor James Bolt. James. The grants were apparently
- 27:36Speaker 2: to assist migrants to integrate and to promote inclusiveness. Is
- 27:41Speaker 2: there anything labor won't do to buy a vote?
- 27:45Speaker 5: James? I will get into that. I just want to
- 27:48Speaker 5: say one thing about Charlie Kirk's death and I'm sorry
- 27:50Speaker 5: to hijack the show. I don't feel I own the
- 27:53Speaker 5: joint just because my surname's in the bottom left corner.
- 27:55Speaker 5: But I think if you are going to want to
- 27:57Speaker 5: hear this, because this is how the ABC started it
- 28:00Speaker 5: off their seven pm broadcast, and I talking about Charlie
- 28:02Speaker 5: Kirk's death. He was a conservative influencer who campaigned for
- 28:06Speaker 5: gun rights. Now the American right wing commentator Charlie Kirk
- 28:09Speaker 5: has been shot and killed. How is that anything other
- 28:12Speaker 5: than saying, if you play with fire, don't be surprised
- 28:15Speaker 5: if you get burned. That's our taxpayer fund at ABC
- 28:18Speaker 5: speaking about a dead man who is leaving behind a
- 28:21Speaker 5: family with two children behind. I cannot believe that is
- 28:24Speaker 5: what was said now to the issue of this center now.
- 28:28Speaker 2: James, James Rospier, just before you continued, James, c that's
- 28:33Speaker 2: why at seven pm you watched the Bolt Report and
- 28:35Speaker 2: not the ABC News.
- 28:36Speaker 5: I don't know what came over me. Actually, this might
- 28:38Speaker 5: be a fun fact. That tip off came from me
- 28:41Speaker 5: from Andrew Bold, so he's not even watching his own show.
- 28:44Speaker 5: I don't know how viewers could possibly get the head
- 28:46Speaker 5: around that one. I think it's something to do with
- 28:48Speaker 5: the hospital bed TV. But fun fact, now to the
- 28:51Speaker 5: Islamic Center, right. So I don't think it's about buying votes.
- 28:55Speaker 5: I'm not going to go full just enterprise, but I
- 28:57Speaker 5: do think it's interesting that if you do have a
- 28:59Speaker 5: situation where you want to promote the idea of all
- 29:02Speaker 5: religions are welcome, all facets of religions are welcome, you
- 29:05Speaker 5: don't really give yourself an opportunity to say, Okay, not
- 29:08Speaker 5: that part or not that one. So they are caught
- 29:10Speaker 5: in a bind there. But what I find really interesting
- 29:13Speaker 5: about this story is that the funds from the federal
- 29:16Speaker 5: government were passed when Andrew Giles was Home Affairs Minister.
- 29:19Speaker 5: This guy got turfed about a year ago now, and
- 29:22Speaker 5: he still keeps coming up as one of the Labor
- 29:24Speaker 5: Party's great failures. His stench is still in the fabric
- 29:28Speaker 5: of the office and there is nothing they can do
- 29:29Speaker 5: to get it out. In some ways, I'm actually sorry
- 29:32Speaker 5: for Tony Burke that he keeps having to clear up
- 29:34Speaker 5: some other guy's mess.
- 29:38Speaker 2: That's a great way of putting it, James. I couldn't
- 29:41Speaker 2: agree more, Jemma. Bearing in mind, we've just learned the
- 29:43Speaker 2: Iranian government facilitated terror attacks on Australian soil. This story
- 29:48Speaker 2: beggars belief that the Labor government would be funding in
- 29:51Speaker 2: is Lummack center that have speakers associated with the Supreme
- 29:55Speaker 2: Leader of Iram.
- 29:58Speaker 19: Well it doesn't. It's actually completely un and no one
- 30:00Speaker 19: should be surprised. But seeing as we're all hijacking the program,
- 30:03Speaker 19: I'll have a crack myself, James, it's Tonyini, not tog Needi.
- 30:07Speaker 19: Just for future reference. I think it comes down to
- 30:11Speaker 19: how taxpayers dollars are spent and if the money was
- 30:14Speaker 19: spent or granted rather for social cohesion integration, where was
- 30:19Speaker 19: the evidence of that who was accountable for that spend.
- 30:23Speaker 19: You know, we don't have a license to print money.
- 30:25Speaker 19: You can call it quality of quantitive easy, you can
- 30:27Speaker 19: call it whatever you want. But at the end of
- 30:28Speaker 19: the day, it's how governments spend our money. And we're
- 30:32Speaker 19: in a we're in a set of circumstances in this
- 30:34Speaker 19: country right now that's extremely fraught for a variety of reasons.
- 30:38Speaker 19: But if a Christian preacher, for example, was on his
- 30:43Speaker 19: pulpit or her pulpit on a weekend, weekend week out
- 30:47Speaker 19: preaching the eradication of another ethnicity or another faith, or
- 30:51Speaker 19: saying you know, everyone whose gay should go to hell,
- 30:54Speaker 19: and all of these hateful things. You know that this
- 30:57Speaker 19: government would take all the authorities, would take action under
- 31:00Speaker 19: the laws that are available for action to be taken.
- 31:03Speaker 19: So does it really matter what bad you're wearing and
- 31:05Speaker 19: it doesn't matter what faith that you profess to have.
- 31:08Speaker 19: These sorts of words are damaging and the taxpayers money
- 31:12Speaker 19: shouldn't be going to organizations that are unaccountable for how
- 31:15Speaker 19: that money is spent.
- 31:18Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 31:19Speaker 2: Absolutely, Right now, we're going to go to a break.
- 31:21Speaker 2: But when we come back from the break, I want
- 31:22Speaker 2: to talk to you about a pro Palestinian protester who
- 31:25Speaker 2: flew a hamask flag and police have decided not to
- 31:30Speaker 2: charge him. That in just a moment, all right, I'm
- 31:36Speaker 2: back with my panel, and I've got to talk about
- 31:38Speaker 2: a story that absolutely shocked me today. A pro Palestinian
- 31:41Speaker 2: protester who flew a Hamas flag at a recent rally
- 31:45Speaker 2: in Brisbane has gotten away with it after claiming he
- 31:48Speaker 2: didn't know what the flag represented. Australian Federal police investigated
- 31:52Speaker 2: but declined to lay charges because waiving a terrorist flag
- 31:56Speaker 2: is only an offense if you know it's a terrorist flag,
- 32:00Speaker 2: and he claimed he had no idea James Up, he
- 32:03Speaker 2: was at this protest rally waving a flag in complete
- 32:07Speaker 2: ignorance as to what it represented. Would you buy that?
- 32:10Speaker 5: I don't know if I personally would buy that, but
- 32:12Speaker 5: i'd certainly at least one had heard before a court,
- 32:14Speaker 5: because what an incredible precedent this sets for police activity.
- 32:18Speaker 5: If you don't know who something is offensive, you can't
- 32:21Speaker 5: be held responsible for having waived it. I'm sure many
- 32:24Speaker 5: neo Nazis are very interested in what the AFP has
- 32:27Speaker 5: decided on this one. And then the second thing I
- 32:30Speaker 5: would say is, let's say that person is right and
- 32:32Speaker 5: they didn't know what flag they were waving. How do
- 32:35Speaker 5: you have any sense that you know what you're talking
- 32:38Speaker 5: about when it comes to the Middle East If you
- 32:40Speaker 5: can't even recognize the flag if arom Us, but still
- 32:43Speaker 5: you feel that you've got the perfect solution as to
- 32:45Speaker 5: what Israel should do in Gaza.
- 32:49Speaker 2: Yeah, Typically, if you go to a protest, you would
- 32:52Speaker 2: grab a flag that would be relevant in your mind
- 32:54Speaker 2: to that protest. Jimma, here's my question for you. If
- 32:57Speaker 2: the police accept the claim the man didn't know what
- 33:00Speaker 2: the flag was. Shouldn't they investigate who gave it to him?
- 33:04Speaker 2: Bearing in mind it's a terrorist flag? Well they should.
- 33:10Speaker 19: Perhaps it's easy, you know, it's easy to sort of
- 33:16Speaker 19: poke those sorts of holes in the conversation when we're
- 33:18Speaker 19: not there, and and I'm not making apologies. I think
- 33:21Speaker 19: it's a horrendous thing for a person to do. And
- 33:23Speaker 19: my record on this issue is well well established more broadly,
- 33:27Speaker 19: but you know, as to what the police shouldn't or
- 33:30Speaker 19: shouldn't do.
- 33:31Speaker 10: I think.
- 33:33Speaker 19: Ahama's flag, I imagine, wouldn't be too hard to get.
- 33:36Speaker 12: Wouldn't know.
- 33:37Speaker 19: I have never tried, don't intend to try. But it's
- 33:39Speaker 19: not like that is the burning platform. You know, what
- 33:43Speaker 19: flag you can have access to and what flag you
- 33:44Speaker 19: can wave. The burning platform is the other stuff, the radicalization,
- 33:50Speaker 19: the seeming way in which these issues have been able
- 33:54Speaker 19: to bolt for the horizon, while our authorities at a
- 33:58Speaker 19: local level or state and a federal level have sort
- 34:00Speaker 19: of been scrambling to shut various gates behind them. So yeah,
- 34:03Speaker 19: it's an indication. You know, some some peanut turns up
- 34:07Speaker 19: to a rally, you know, carrying a terrorist flag and says, oh, no,
- 34:10Speaker 19: I had no idea. What this flag? You know, well,
- 34:13Speaker 19: that's between them and their maker. But it's again, it's
- 34:16Speaker 19: not the burning platform. In my view, there are significant,
- 34:20Speaker 19: significantly more pressing important issues that are not on the
- 34:25Speaker 19: peripher all like this one is.
- 34:28Speaker 2: I've got to say I'm with James on this one.
- 34:31Speaker 2: I can't believe the police didn't at least test that
- 34:34Speaker 2: in court. Let's go to Victoria, where the safety and
- 34:37Speaker 2: integrity of Jacinta Allen's machete bins have been thrown into doubt.
- 34:41Speaker 2: Liberal MP Nick McGowan has filmed himself breaking into one
- 34:46Speaker 2: of these high security bins using a nine dollars tool
- 34:49Speaker 2: from Bunnings that some bins apparently get a stick hand
- 34:52Speaker 2: right inside.
- 34:53Speaker 17: Have a look, but i've got here that is a
- 34:56Speaker 17: hex key.
- 34:57Speaker 3: An I'm familiar with the talks x key.
- 34:59Speaker 17: The reason that's relevant if you think these things are
- 35:01Speaker 17: being kept securely, well, I don't know who.
- 35:05Speaker 4: Designed this thing, but look it is.
- 35:07Speaker 3: That's what it's secured by.
- 35:08Speaker 17: Sixteen literally sixteen hex bolts that can be undone with
- 35:14Speaker 17: a nine dollars ninety eight talks x key.
- 35:20Speaker 2: Now that's worth saying. The state government has refused to
- 35:23Speaker 2: comment specifically on the security of the bins, but apparently
- 35:26Speaker 2: there are internal mechanisms which make them tamper proof. James,
- 35:30Speaker 2: these bins were always a gimmick, though, weren't they.
- 35:33Speaker 5: Yeah, I'd love to hear what these safety things are.
- 35:35Speaker 5: I'm just not going to accept one wine that I
- 35:37Speaker 5: know he can't actually do that. I need to see
- 35:40Speaker 5: the same sort of evidence we just saw there. But
- 35:42Speaker 5: I'll tell you what. Any criminal that does break into
- 35:44Speaker 5: one of these machete bins, I think we can all
- 35:46Speaker 5: breathe easy that. I don't think there's going to be
- 35:48Speaker 5: that many machetes for them to steal. Who is the
- 35:52Speaker 5: criminal that goes, you know what? I've had this machete
- 35:55Speaker 5: for a while. I've been using it, Dah, just get
- 35:57Speaker 5: back to the police. Don't worry about it or the
- 35:59Speaker 5: person that it feels the need to have a machete
- 36:01Speaker 5: to protect themselves from other criminals that goes you know what,
- 36:04Speaker 5: Why don't I just chance it? It's better that this
- 36:06Speaker 5: thing is off the street. I can't believe this policy
- 36:09Speaker 5: was ever thought of. I can't believe how much money
- 36:11Speaker 5: it's costing. And these safety things are just to drop
- 36:15Speaker 5: in a bucket as to how stupid this idea is.
- 36:19Speaker 2: Jem and the government steadfastly refused to reveal how many
- 36:22Speaker 2: machetes have been handed in. Why would that be, do
- 36:25Speaker 2: you think?
- 36:27Speaker 19: Because they can refuse to because they've been held to
- 36:31Speaker 19: the lowest level of account by hapless Victorian opposition for
- 36:34Speaker 19: god knows how long.
- 36:35Speaker 2: I don't live in Victoria.
- 36:36Speaker 19: I live in Sydney, as you know. But the question, again,
- 36:39Speaker 19: it's not about the thing, it's the thing behind the thing.
- 36:42Speaker 19: And in this case you've got an opposition party of
- 36:45Speaker 19: which I am a supporter and broadly a voter at
- 36:48Speaker 19: a federal level who could not organize, pardon my expression,
- 36:51Speaker 19: a route in a brothel. I couldn't win a shook
- 36:54Speaker 19: at a You couldn't you get where I'm going with
- 36:57Speaker 19: going to with that statement. But you know, the Allen
- 37:00Speaker 19: government and the Andrews government prior to that, have been
- 37:03Speaker 19: able to act with impunity on whatever issue they want
- 37:07Speaker 19: to for a very long time because there has not
- 37:11Speaker 19: been a viable opposition. There has not been a party
- 37:13Speaker 19: with discipline, with focus, with policy that Victorians want to
- 37:18Speaker 19: vote for. I was down in Melbourne last week's chatting
- 37:20Speaker 19: to people who live there, who are probably more on
- 37:23Speaker 19: my side of the political fence than the left, and
- 37:26Speaker 19: they say the same thing. They say that this is
- 37:30Speaker 19: a government that is by all accounts appalling, but will
- 37:34Speaker 19: probably get re elected because the opposition doesn't give anyone
- 37:38Speaker 19: hope for change. So that is the thing I would
- 37:40Speaker 19: be asking. I wouldn't be asking about machete bins that,
- 37:42Speaker 19: at the end of the day, are an embarrassment because
- 37:44Speaker 19: you don't need a bit unless you've got the crime,
- 37:46Speaker 19: and the crime.
- 37:47Speaker 2: Comes on the back of a conger line.
- 37:50Speaker 19: Of policy failures over a very long period of time.
- 37:55Speaker 2: Indeed, all right, before we go to a break, the
- 37:57Speaker 2: PM has featured in a TikTok video ripping off a
- 38:00Speaker 2: scene from Legally Blonde. Have a look, I'm sorry, Are
- 38:04Speaker 2: you to see me now?
- 38:06Speaker 7: Silly?
- 38:07Speaker 3: I go here? You go wear Harvard Laws. Scool?
- 38:13Speaker 2: You got into Harvard Law.
- 38:16Speaker 8: What like?
- 38:17Speaker 16: It's hard?
- 38:23Speaker 2: James Bolt, you're younger than Jem and I. So maybe
- 38:26Speaker 2: you see something that we're missing. Did you watch that
- 38:28Speaker 2: video and think, Wow, the PM is hip and cool
- 38:31Speaker 2: and relatable.
- 38:33Speaker 5: None of those words. But I'll say this, they work
- 38:37Speaker 5: like I'm sorry, they look cringe. They're not made for you.
- 38:39Speaker 15: And me.
- 38:40Speaker 5: We would prefer to see actual policy, but really they work.
- 38:44Speaker 5: There's so many people that aren't following politics that have
- 38:47Speaker 5: to vote in every election, and I just swear like
- 38:50Speaker 5: every single election in Western history has come down to
- 38:53Speaker 5: the ultimate question, who would you rather have a beer with?
- 38:56Speaker 5: So we can make fun of these videos because it's
- 38:58Speaker 5: very easy to do, but at the same time, Albanize's
- 39:00Speaker 5: out there making himself look relatable to people who dip
- 39:04Speaker 5: their toes in politics once every three years. It's incredibly powerful.
- 39:08Speaker 5: I hate that he does it, I hate that the
- 39:10Speaker 5: Liberals do it, I hate that anyone does it at all.
- 39:13Speaker 8: But it works.
- 39:16Speaker 11: Well.
- 39:17Speaker 2: I'm depressed to hear that, because that means we're going
- 39:19Speaker 2: to see more of these videos. James, I'm so sorry
- 39:22Speaker 2: that you told me that. Hey, thanks for joining me
- 39:25Speaker 2: to both of you. By the way, before you go,
- 39:27Speaker 2: Andrew Bolt just sent me a message to say he
- 39:29Speaker 2: is watching the program, So I shout out to Andrew.
- 39:32Speaker 2: We trust your recovery is going well. Do you very
- 39:35Speaker 2: very soon. Jemma and James, you did dobby in. Thanks
- 39:38Speaker 2: to both of you for joining me. We're going to
- 39:40Speaker 2: go to a break but coming up the UK. He
- 39:42Speaker 2: could face a hefty reparations bill if demands from African
- 39:46Speaker 2: leaders wanting compensation for slavery. A met Patrick christieas joins
- 39:50Speaker 2: me in just a moment, I want to go to
- 39:55Speaker 2: the UK, where a senior judge has been heavily criticized
- 39:58Speaker 2: for giving his this best wishes to one of the
- 40:02Speaker 2: masterminds behind the nine to eleven attacks on New York
- 40:06Speaker 2: and the London bombings in two thousand and five. So
- 40:09Speaker 2: Robert J made the comments at a High Court hearing
- 40:11Speaker 2: ahead of Harun Asswap's imminent release. This is a man
- 40:15Speaker 2: who was sentenced to twenty years jail in the US
- 40:19Speaker 2: for admitting to helping set up a terrorist training camp
- 40:21Speaker 2: in Oregon. He was deported to the UK after serving
- 40:24Speaker 2: just seven years, and is now being released having served
- 40:27Speaker 2: just half of his sentence. The judge apparently told a
- 40:30Speaker 2: swat quote it could not have been too pleasant being
- 40:34Speaker 2: an American, being in American custody all that time. I
- 40:38Speaker 2: have to wish you all the best and say to
- 40:40Speaker 2: you that the way forward is to keep on your medication,
- 40:43Speaker 2: listen to the advice you're going to get, and keep
- 40:46Speaker 2: out of the sort of things you were doing. Well. Indeed,
- 40:49Speaker 2: joining me now from London is Duke GK news host
- 40:52Speaker 2: Patrick Christie's Patrick, if that judge is not immediately sacked,
- 40:58Speaker 2: there's something very very raw.
- 41:01Speaker 20: When Harry and as what was detained under the Mental
- 41:03Speaker 20: Health Act, I would detain that judge under the Mental
- 41:06Speaker 20: Health Act. Thousands died in nine to eleven. Fifty two
- 41:09Speaker 20: people died in the seven seven terrorist attacks we had
- 41:12Speaker 20: here in London. Hundreds more were injured. You cannot deradicalize
- 41:16Speaker 20: a jahaddie. How do we know that? Because we've got
- 41:19Speaker 20: some cast iron examples. The London Bridge attacker here in
- 41:22Speaker 20: London obviously was released, said he'd been rehabilitated, then killed
- 41:27Speaker 20: his support workers, who were two young people. Just a
- 41:30Speaker 20: few weeks ago, I exclusively revealed on my GB News
- 41:33Speaker 20: show that Britain's most dangerous jahaddi that was probably before
- 41:37Speaker 20: the guy that we're talking about now had been released.
- 41:40Speaker 20: He was called Mohammad shah Jahan. He plotted to blow
- 41:43Speaker 20: up the London Stock Exchange and commit a marauding gun
- 41:46Speaker 20: and bomb attack around the capital.
- 41:49Speaker 7: He was released. They just let him out.
- 41:51Speaker 20: They said that he'd served his time and that despite
- 41:54Speaker 20: the fact that mental health workers said that he still
- 41:56Speaker 20: posed a danger.
- 41:57Speaker 7: They let him out anyway.
- 41:58Speaker 20: He was close friends with that other attacker that I
- 42:01Speaker 20: just mentioned there. Another compass of Theirs was released. He
- 42:04Speaker 20: was recalled immediately for planning another terror attack.
- 42:08Speaker 7: I mean, I'm starting to wonder whether or not some
- 42:09Speaker 7: of these judges are lunatics.
- 42:11Speaker 20: You know, they've been interpreting law designed for Ukrainian refugees
- 42:14Speaker 20: to allow Garsans into Britain. We've got a card carrying
- 42:18Speaker 20: form member of the Labor Party allowing the continued use
- 42:21Speaker 20: of migrant hotels, and now they're allowing these Jahandi terrorists
- 42:25Speaker 20: back onto our streets. I mean, there is something seriously
- 42:27Speaker 20: wrong with our judicial system here in this country.
- 42:32Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 42:32Speaker 2: I've got to say, I read the UK Telegraph and
- 42:34Speaker 2: the UK Times every day and it seems like every
- 42:37Speaker 2: other day there's some decision or comment from a member
- 42:41Speaker 2: of the British judiciary that is so at odds with
- 42:44Speaker 2: what you would expect normal people would be thinking and expecting.
- 42:49Speaker 20: Yeah, exactly, And you know, you have to have a
- 42:51Speaker 20: look at who some of these people are and has
- 42:53Speaker 20: that judicial system been infiltrated by people on the kind
- 42:56Speaker 20: of hard left as it were. I mean, we know
- 42:59Speaker 20: that one of the who was responsible for the ruling
- 43:02Speaker 20: about the migrant hotels being allowed to stay open, he
- 43:04Speaker 20: signed with the government on that. He'd been a member
- 43:06Speaker 20: of the Labor Party for twenty eight years. He was
- 43:09Speaker 20: the former treasurer chairman of the Fabian Society, which is
- 43:13Speaker 20: a really hard left I mean their logo is a
- 43:15Speaker 20: wolf in sheep's closing right.
- 43:16Speaker 7: So you've got that. He was the treasurer of the
- 43:18Speaker 7: Society of Labor Lawyers.
- 43:20Speaker 20: I mean he set up the chambers, the same barrister's
- 43:23Speaker 20: chambers that our Attorney General currently worked for before. That's
- 43:27Speaker 20: the same guy. Obviously, that was fine for us to
- 43:30Speaker 20: sign off our sovereign territory to Mauritius the chegovs. You
- 43:33Speaker 20: have to look at who these people really are, you know,
- 43:36Speaker 20: and I do wonder whether or not really they are.
- 43:39Speaker 7: In a sense enemies of Britain.
- 43:43Speaker 2: It certainly starts to come across that way. Speaking of
- 43:46Speaker 2: enemies of Britain, the African Union is reportedly set to
- 43:49Speaker 2: demand what it calls meaningful reparations. You can read into
- 43:53Speaker 2: that what you will. From former colonial countries, including the UK.
- 43:57Speaker 2: African leaders argue that Britain which once controlled quarter of
- 44:00Speaker 2: the continent, is guilty of historic crimes and Africans must
- 44:05Speaker 2: be compensated. They're currently working on what I would call
- 44:08Speaker 2: a shopping list of reparations for slavery. Patrick, I think
- 44:12Speaker 2: there's a lisson here, is there not? When the West
- 44:15Speaker 2: turns on itself, we shouldn't be surprised when everyone else
- 44:19Speaker 2: turns on the West as well.
- 44:21Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 44:21Speaker 20: Absolutely, and I mean they can swivel. I'll just say
- 44:24Speaker 20: that straight away. But this is what happens when the
- 44:28Speaker 20: British government and the West shows weakness. Like I said before,
- 44:30Speaker 20: we've given away the chay Gotsionists to Mauritius.
- 44:32Speaker 7: We're not giving it away.
- 44:33Speaker 20: We've actually paid them for the privilege of taking our territory.
- 44:36Speaker 20: We're currently being led by a spinalless human rights lawyer
- 44:39Speaker 20: in the shape of a Prime minister who is obsessed
- 44:41Speaker 20: with international law, and we now have a deputy Prime
- 44:44Speaker 20: Minister who has openly called for reparations. So this is
- 44:49Speaker 20: just absolutely astonishing stuff. I don't really think that Britain
- 44:52Speaker 20: has got anything to apologize for. And also this question
- 44:55Speaker 20: masters as to where would this money seriously go? I mean,
- 44:59Speaker 20: with respect, some of these African countries are amongst the
- 45:01Speaker 20: most corrupt in the world. So the idea of handing
- 45:04Speaker 20: over potentially to the tune of hundreds of billions of
- 45:07Speaker 20: pounds by the way British taxpayers money to some of
- 45:09Speaker 20: the more corrupt countries in the world is not a
- 45:12Speaker 20: particularly good idea. And also, you know, I'm not being funny,
- 45:15Speaker 20: but we accept a lot of immigration, both legal and illegal,
- 45:19Speaker 20: from various different African nations as well, so they.
- 45:23Speaker 7: Kind of can't have it both ways.
- 45:24Speaker 20: Some people would say that we are in a way
- 45:26Speaker 20: paying reparations because we seem to be accepting thousands of
- 45:29Speaker 20: mostly young men from the likes of Eritrea and Ethiopia
- 45:33Speaker 20: on a monthly basis illegally across the English Channel. I'm
- 45:36Speaker 20: putting them up for free in luxury hotels and giving
- 45:40Speaker 20: them everything that they could possibly want. I mean, that
- 45:42Speaker 20: is a form of reparations, isn't it. And I think
- 45:44Speaker 20: that's more than enough as it is.
- 45:48Speaker 2: Just really quick. So I want to move on to
- 45:49Speaker 2: Prince Harry. But these demands for reparations that they happen
- 45:53Speaker 2: from time to time, that the demands are getting stronger,
- 45:56Speaker 2: But do you seriously think they'll go anywhere.
- 46:00Speaker 20: Seriously, if this government is already on the brink in
- 46:03Speaker 20: this country, if they decide to give away British taxpayers
- 46:06Speaker 20: money when we are being asked to pay the highest
- 46:09Speaker 20: tax burden ever here. Now, I honestly think you will
- 46:13Speaker 20: just have I'll stop short of saying right, obviously, I
- 46:15Speaker 20: don't want to be in sight anything, but I mean
- 46:17Speaker 20: there'll be massive protests, massive protests on the streets.
- 46:19Speaker 7: The government would have to go.
- 46:21Speaker 2: It will be lunacy, all right. Prince Harry has met
- 46:25Speaker 2: with his father, King Charles for the first time in
- 46:27Speaker 2: nineteen months. The peer shared tea at Clarence House in London.
- 46:31Speaker 2: The last time Harry hung out with his dad was
- 46:34Speaker 2: in February last year, when he flew to London after
- 46:37Speaker 2: hearing news of the King's cancer diagnosis. Does this mean
- 46:42Speaker 2: that there's been a thawing of relations.
- 46:44Speaker 20: What do we read into this, Patrick, I think Harry's apologized.
- 46:49Speaker 20: I think that behind the scenes, Prince Harry has apologized.
- 46:51Speaker 20: It's the only way that I see this meeting happening now.
- 46:53Speaker 20: Apparently he's got a new team around him, which is
- 46:56Speaker 20: one of several new teams that he's had, and they've
- 46:59Speaker 20: admitted that the decision to take on the Home Office
- 47:01Speaker 20: in the High Court about his security was wrong, and
- 47:04Speaker 20: apparently they have insisted that the days of these interviews
- 47:07Speaker 20: that he's been doing with Oprah etc. Are behind him.
- 47:11Speaker 20: So I think there's been a shift there. I think
- 47:14Speaker 20: that we'll find out, though, won't we whether or not
- 47:16Speaker 20: he means that, because are we going to end up
- 47:17Speaker 20: seeing the details of this meeting leap to the US press,
- 47:20Speaker 20: or appear in a Netflix documentary or come out in
- 47:23Speaker 20: some kind of cookery show that Mega Markle decides to
- 47:25Speaker 20: do in someone else's kitchen.
- 47:27Speaker 7: At some point in the future.
- 47:29Speaker 20: There is another angle to this story, of course, which
- 47:31Speaker 20: is that it will heighten concerns for King Charles's health,
- 47:34Speaker 20: I think rightly. So we don't know exactly how well
- 47:36Speaker 20: or otherwise he's doing. It's a private health matter. But
- 47:39Speaker 20: does this reconciliation with Prince Harry maybe indicate that he
- 47:44Speaker 20: wants to try to square that off in the time
- 47:47Speaker 20: that he's still got left. And bear in mind as
- 47:49Speaker 20: well that this will have gone down very very badly
- 47:52Speaker 20: with Prince William, his other son, our next king, who
- 47:55Speaker 20: is apparently from what I'm hearing in no mood for
- 47:59Speaker 20: reconciling with Prince Harry.
- 48:01Speaker 7: So there's that.
- 48:02Speaker 20: I mean, there is another slight angle, which is that
- 48:04Speaker 20: Prince Harry could be looking to shore up or get
- 48:06Speaker 20: assurances from his father that he will still have some
- 48:08Speaker 20: form of royal title once King.
- 48:10Speaker 7: Charles does go, but hopefully we don't have to find.
- 48:13Speaker 2: That out from us. There's always that angle as well.
- 48:18Speaker 2: You're absolutely right, Patrick Christie, is always a delight to
- 48:20Speaker 2: speak with you. Thanks for joining me, Taime. That's all
- 48:23Speaker 2: I've got time for this evening, but stick around. Coming
- 48:26Speaker 2: up right now is Sharry Markson good Night
