- 0:11Speaker 1: It's the bold reform it.
- 0:15Speaker 2: Tonight race politics. White voters claim Labor banned them from
- 0:19Speaker 2: a community event last night for only Chinese Australians, and
- 0:24Speaker 2: the King reminds Donald Trump Canada is mine. Also tonight,
- 0:28Speaker 2: Clive Palmer takes on left wing journalist at the Press
- 0:30Speaker 2: Club and he backs Donald Trump for hitting our aluminium
- 0:34Speaker 2: imports with a tariff. And you know he actually has
- 0:38Speaker 2: a point, plus an amazing response tobil list of academics
- 0:42Speaker 2: you say they are Aboriginal when their genealogy suggests they
- 0:46Speaker 2: are not, and plenty more as well. But first, that
- 0:50Speaker 2: Chris Bard, the energy He tried to fool you today
- 0:53Speaker 2: about his clean energy crusade. He told a ridiculous lie
- 0:58Speaker 2: or a half truth of whatever you want to call
- 1:00Speaker 2: about Why your power bills are going up yet again,
- 1:04Speaker 2: Why more heavy industries will be destroyed by this madness
- 1:08Speaker 2: from the Albanize government. No wonder he looked sick and embarrassed.
- 1:13Speaker 2: Now you have heard already that the strained Energy Regulator
- 1:15Speaker 2: is recommended yet another rise in maximum electricity prices, this
- 1:19Speaker 2: time up to nearly nine percent in New South Wales,
- 1:23Speaker 2: less elsewhere, but still up. In a separate decision. Electricity
- 1:27Speaker 2: prices Victoria also going up, although only a little then
- 1:30Speaker 2: average of twelve dollars a year for householders, but more
- 1:33Speaker 2: for business. And all this means we are paying much
- 1:36Speaker 2: much more for electricity than we were three years ago
- 1:39Speaker 2: when the Albanizi government with Chris bone actually won on
- 1:43Speaker 2: this promise to cut electricity prices, not send them through
- 1:47Speaker 2: the roof.
- 1:49Speaker 3: Two hunred and seventy five dollars by twenty two seventy five.
- 1:52Speaker 1: By twenty twenty five, we stand by.
- 1:54Speaker 4: That two hundred and seventy five dollars for households, reducing
- 1:58Speaker 4: power prices by two hundred seventy five dollars.
- 2:02Speaker 2: Now, the opposition leader was absolutely correct today.
- 2:07Speaker 5: I think it's time for Chris Bowe to be sacked.
- 2:11Speaker 2: And I've said that for a year and now already,
- 2:13Speaker 2: and you've heard me. I mean Bowen and the whole
- 2:17Speaker 2: government lied to you back then before the last election.
- 2:20Speaker 2: Either that or they had absolutely no idea what they
- 2:23Speaker 2: were doing, forcing us to use more and more wind
- 2:26Speaker 2: and solar power. So they are now essentially paying for
- 2:28Speaker 2: two actoristy systems. They're green one and a fossil fuel
- 2:31Speaker 2: one for when there is no wind and no sun,
- 2:34Speaker 2: no wonder prices have exploded. Now all this I'm sure
- 2:37Speaker 2: you already know. But what you probably don't know is
- 2:42Speaker 2: how Chris Boone today again didn't just refuse to admit
- 2:45Speaker 2: it's completely stuffed this up. He actually pretended this wasn't
- 2:50Speaker 2: the fault of his beloved wind farms and solar farms. No,
- 2:55Speaker 2: it was those dumb cold generators.
- 2:59Speaker 3: One of the reasons for this decision today is spikes
- 3:03Speaker 3: caused by coal fire power stations breaking down.
- 3:08Speaker 2: Let me expose his spin. In fact, this is what
- 3:12Speaker 2: the Australian Energy Regulated actually did say today. I'll quote
- 3:17Speaker 2: it that average wholesale market spot prices increased the Cross
- 3:21Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, impacted by factors such as high demand
- 3:25Speaker 2: coal generator network outages. That bits true, but it also
- 3:29Speaker 2: went on to say also low solar and wind output.
- 3:35Speaker 2: The Bone didn't mention that, did he Oh, not enough
- 3:38Speaker 2: in the solar. That's absolutely true that agent generators do
- 3:43Speaker 2: sometimes break down need maintenance, particularly when the governments made
- 3:46Speaker 2: an uneconomic to invest in them. But the wind and
- 3:49Speaker 2: solar power that we are subsidizing with billions of dollars
- 3:54Speaker 2: could not make up the difference, but even worse, as
- 3:58Speaker 2: you just heard, they're unreliable in their output. Last year
- 4:02Speaker 2: there was a bad wind drought, for instance, not enough wind,
- 4:07Speaker 2: suddenly less electricity. You can't rely on wind. How often
- 4:12Speaker 2: does it need to be said? Now? It's often said
- 4:16Speaker 2: it's a truism that the definition of madness is to
- 4:19Speaker 2: keep doing the same thing and expecting a different result,
- 4:22Speaker 2: which is Chris bart He today promised to actually keep
- 4:26Speaker 2: doing what is destroying us our power system, to keep
- 4:32Speaker 2: closing coal stations and to make us even more dependent
- 4:36Speaker 2: on unreliable wind and solar. He attacked the opposition for
- 4:39Speaker 2: actually wanting to keep those col far generators running, even
- 4:42Speaker 2: though he just complained that we were short of electricity
- 4:46Speaker 2: without them.
- 4:48Speaker 3: If you are planning on keeping coal in the grid
- 4:50Speaker 3: for longer, that puts upward pressure on prices. Those fundamental
- 4:53Speaker 3: facts remain. Now we'll continue with that approach.
- 4:59Speaker 2: And that's why Chris b to be sacked, is now
- 5:02Speaker 2: so deep in this disaster of his own making that
- 5:05Speaker 2: to admit it, would you know, to know our change course,
- 5:08Speaker 2: That would be like saying, oh, sorry, I really didn't
- 5:11Speaker 2: ever have a clue, sorry about that. Sorry that of
- 5:15Speaker 2: course enormous pain for absolutely no good your second, I mean,
- 5:19Speaker 2: the man's so out of ideas. I'll tell you what
- 5:22Speaker 2: he said today. His plan is actually to keep building
- 5:26Speaker 2: more wind and solar, but to pay you back with
- 5:32Speaker 2: your own money for the higher prices. He takes your
- 5:35Speaker 2: money in taxes and gives it back to you to
- 5:38Speaker 2: make you feel better about paying higher electricity prices. It
- 5:42Speaker 2: really is that stupid.
- 5:45Speaker 3: Our approach of short term relief coupled with the longer
- 5:48Speaker 3: term plan is the right plan for Australia.
- 5:52Speaker 2: It's like a thief breaking into your home, breaking up
- 5:57Speaker 2: all the furniture, destroying the kitchen, slashing the sofa, and
- 6:02Speaker 2: then grabbing your wallet and saying, here, let me pay
- 6:05Speaker 2: for the damage with your own money. You can't run
- 6:08Speaker 2: a country like that. And we're seeing the damage. Our
- 6:13Speaker 2: nickel industry already wiped out by higher power prices than
- 6:16Speaker 2: you find and say Indonesia they use coal. Our last
- 6:20Speaker 2: glass manufacturer of glass for buildings just wiped out this
- 6:23Speaker 2: year in part by higher gas prices. Our last big
- 6:26Speaker 2: plastics manufacturer wiped out in part by higher energy prices.
- 6:31Speaker 5: It's abundantly clear to all Australians now that the government's
- 6:35Speaker 5: renewables only energy policy is a disaster for families and
- 6:39Speaker 5: for small businesses. There are twenty seven thousand small businesses
- 6:42Speaker 5: which have closed their doors over the course of the
- 6:45Speaker 5: last two and a half years, and in many cases
- 6:48Speaker 5: energy costs will be a contributing factor to the overwhelming
- 6:51Speaker 5: circumstances that those businesses found themselves in. Now.
- 6:56Speaker 2: The worst pole suggests that Anthony albani is in Crisp
- 7:00Speaker 2: will still win the election, just but only with Greens
- 7:05Speaker 2: and the Teal independence, all of them claiming extremists helping
- 7:08Speaker 2: them to form government. What do you think is going
- 7:10Speaker 2: to happen? It means a re elected Labor government would
- 7:14Speaker 2: go in even harder than with the global warming policies
- 7:17Speaker 2: already crippling us supercharge, this time with the Greens and
- 7:20Speaker 2: the Teals making us weak when we most need to
- 7:24Speaker 2: be strong. Joining me is scun New's Business editor Ross Greenwood.
- 7:33Speaker 2: Ross green will thank you for joining me. Why are
- 7:35Speaker 2: power prices going up yet again?
- 7:39Speaker 6: It's because of the unreliability of the Australian energy grid
- 7:42Speaker 6: on the East Coast. Effectively, it's the reality that the
- 7:47Speaker 6: coal fire power stations are less reliable. They do need work.
- 7:51Speaker 6: They're eventually going to be phased out. Off found ironic
- 7:53Speaker 6: today that the Energy Minister Chris Bowen was talking about
- 7:56Speaker 6: the unreliability of these coal fire powers.
- 7:59Speaker 7: There's a man who to get rid of them.
- 8:01Speaker 6: But without them, the price of electricity would have been
- 8:03Speaker 6: many times higher because the reality is that you know,
- 8:07Speaker 6: at the moment the grid cannot solely work on renewables.
- 8:11Speaker 6: There is not enough gas in the system to even
- 8:14Speaker 6: the system out, and so as a result, when you
- 8:16Speaker 6: get these periods of either extreme temperature, you're going to
- 8:19Speaker 6: get massive spikes in the price and ultimately consumers pay
- 8:24Speaker 6: for this. So this is about energy policy, pure and
- 8:27Speaker 6: simple that needs to land at the feet of the
- 8:29Speaker 6: federal government.
- 8:32Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought he was a bit dishonest because the
- 8:35Speaker 2: energy regulator also went and blamed went on and blamed
- 8:38Speaker 2: wind and solar for not producing the goods either, and
- 8:42Speaker 2: he didn't mention that, which is interesting. The Avenue government
- 8:46Speaker 2: did promise to cut power prices that instead, as everyone knows,
- 8:49Speaker 2: they've gone way up. Why do you think the plans
- 8:52Speaker 2: have gone so wrong?
- 8:54Speaker 6: The reason is because they've coming at it with a
- 8:57Speaker 6: philosophical view, a lot of scientific and so The fact
- 9:01Speaker 6: of the matter is that they have believed, because they
- 9:04Speaker 6: think it is electorally palatable to people that the notion
- 9:08Speaker 6: of wind and of solar is going to get people across.
- 9:11Speaker 7: The line and look in an ideal world.
- 9:13Speaker 6: If the science were there, that may be true, but
- 9:15Speaker 6: the reality is that the world is not there yet.
- 9:18Speaker 6: The battery technology is not sufficiently there. We haven't been
- 9:21Speaker 6: able to build out the hydro projects, the pump hydro projects,
- 9:25Speaker 6: to be able to ensure the stability of the grid.
- 9:29Speaker 6: And also the fact is that you've got coal fired
- 9:33Speaker 6: power stations that are aging, and you've got really a
- 9:37Speaker 6: demonization against even new gas projects to try and create
- 9:41Speaker 6: more of the gas fired electricity power generators. So all
- 9:46Speaker 6: of this is almost a perfect storm by which Australia
- 9:49Speaker 6: sees itself short.
- 9:50Speaker 7: Of electricity because it is a market.
- 9:53Speaker 6: The fact of the matter is when anything is in
- 9:55Speaker 6: short supply, the price goes up, and it's not a
- 9:58Speaker 6: manager of trying.
- 9:59Speaker 2: To that market.
- 10:00Speaker 6: You can't do that. A market is a market, and
- 10:03Speaker 6: so the prices go to where the demand and the
- 10:05Speaker 6: supply is that look to be fair. There are some
- 10:08Speaker 6: days when the wind is blowing asunders shining and there's
- 10:12Speaker 6: lots of electricity, and electricity prices are negative. They're actually
- 10:17Speaker 6: they're paying you to take the electricity away.
- 10:19Speaker 7: But that's the extreme.
- 10:20Speaker 6: At the other end of the extreme is when it
- 10:23Speaker 6: goes many hundreds of times above what is a long
- 10:26Speaker 6: term average, and ultimately the average of all of this
- 10:29Speaker 6: is what Australian consumers and businesses are paying.
- 10:35Speaker 2: I want to go to the new tariff that Donald
- 10:38Speaker 2: Trump is imposed on our steel and aluminium cause a
- 10:42Speaker 2: huge fast. You know how outrageous it is. And I
- 10:46Speaker 2: thought it was a bit of a dog act to
- 10:48Speaker 2: do to an ally, but Donald Trump's Commerce secretary has
- 10:52Speaker 2: defended them by accusing Australia of dumping our aluminium. Have listen,
- 10:58Speaker 2: this is a real blast.
- 11:00Speaker 7: We're not going to stand for China dumping, Japan dumping.
- 11:04Speaker 8: Australia does a lot of aluminum below cost.
- 11:07Speaker 7: I mean, this has got to end.
- 11:09Speaker 1: And the President is on it and he's protecting America.
- 11:13Speaker 2: Now what's interesting Ross and I think, you know this
- 11:16Speaker 2: is a warning to our politicians to face up to
- 11:18Speaker 2: how flabby our industry has become and how pamped and conceted.
- 11:23Speaker 2: Is that it's absolutely right our governments do subsidize our
- 11:27Speaker 2: oliminium smelters, subsidizes for the high energy prices, among other things,
- 11:31Speaker 2: and Clive Palmer was right on to it today when
- 11:34Speaker 2: he's talking about his new political party trumpet of Patriots
- 11:37Speaker 2: and the National Press clublish to this.
- 11:40Speaker 9: Trump is probably concerned that other alminium smelters in the
- 11:44Speaker 9: United States who don't have a subsidy from the Australian
- 11:47Speaker 9: government or from the South Wales government have to compete
- 11:50Speaker 9: with them, and the Ethink probably thinks that's not fair.
- 11:53Speaker 9: And I think it's not fair either. I think we
- 11:56Speaker 9: want industries that really create real wealth. We don't want
- 11:59Speaker 9: industries that are subsidies because who's going to pay for
- 12:02Speaker 9: the subsidy, it's the taxpayer.
- 12:05Speaker 6: Five partner is absolutely right, did he well the years
- 12:09Speaker 6: And if you think about the Portland aluminium smeltered at
- 12:11Speaker 6: our co oput into Victoria many years ago, which was
- 12:14Speaker 6: for export purposes, the reason that got up as a
- 12:18Speaker 6: viable opportunity was because of cheap electricity provided largely by
- 12:22Speaker 6: the government at a long term government guarantee. But it's
- 12:26Speaker 6: always important with these matters when there's emotions flaring to go.
- 12:29Speaker 7: To some facts. Here are some facts for you.
- 12:32Speaker 6: Last year Australia exported two hundred and twenty three thousand
- 12:36Speaker 6: tons of steel to America. Now, the important aspect of
- 12:40Speaker 6: this is to recognize that that represented about zero point
- 12:43Speaker 6: eight of a percent of the amount of steel that
- 12:46Speaker 6: the United States imported, and when it comes toluminium, eighty
- 12:50Speaker 6: three thousand sons ofuminium, and broadly that was about something
- 12:55Speaker 6: of the order one and a half percent of the
- 12:57Speaker 6: amount of aluminium that a meyrior important.
- 13:00Speaker 7: And it is true to say that at one point.
- 13:03Speaker 6: They did rise, we did start to export a bit more,
- 13:05Speaker 6: but really it is a dead set drop in the bucket.
- 13:08Speaker 6: So a lot of people have got themselves terribly emotional
- 13:12Speaker 6: over what appears to be a slight from Donald Trump
- 13:14Speaker 6: to Australia when he has done to every single country
- 13:18Speaker 6: in the world and not just singled us out to
- 13:20Speaker 6: industries that actually don't send a.
- 13:22Speaker 7: Lot of product there.
- 13:24Speaker 6: In fact, the steel that goes from Australia to America
- 13:27Speaker 6: goes from Woollongong Port Kembler bluescope steel to America to
- 13:32Speaker 6: blue Scopes planned in Ohio, where it's then turned basically
- 13:36Speaker 6: into roofing calibond, and so from that point of view,
- 13:39Speaker 6: let's be honest, this really is a lot of politicians
- 13:43Speaker 6: here getting during an election campaign pretty hot under the
- 13:46Speaker 6: collar over something that genuinely is not a big issue
- 13:49Speaker 6: at all.
- 13:52Speaker 2: And I think we should be talking about how is
- 13:54Speaker 2: it that our industries are disappearing in this country CERU
- 13:59Speaker 2: higher power prices and that is far far more important.
- 14:04Speaker 2: Ross Green would always great to talk to you. Thank
- 14:06Speaker 2: you so much. Quite okay, now I've got to get
- 14:10Speaker 2: back to the wicked damage being done with the governor's
- 14:13Speaker 2: global warming religion Chris Bone. Today he was still claiming
- 14:18Speaker 2: that he was so sure of what he was doing
- 14:20Speaker 2: he would love to debate it.
- 14:24Speaker 9: Now.
- 14:24Speaker 3: I very much welcome a debate about the competing plans
- 14:27Speaker 3: for anyaty prices that will be put before the Australian people
- 14:29Speaker 3: the next selection.
- 14:32Speaker 2: In fact, Bowen is so scared of debate about the
- 14:34Speaker 2: damages doing that he skipped this debate and ports Stevens
- 14:38Speaker 2: with the oppositions Ted O'Brien, that's out where locals are
- 14:42Speaker 2: furious with Boone's plan for a hideous wind farm off
- 14:44Speaker 2: to their coast.
- 14:46Speaker 10: The person with whom I was meant to be here
- 14:48Speaker 10: tonight to have a good, thorough comprehensive debate.
- 14:54Speaker 4: Was this fellow here, the Honorable Chris.
- 14:57Speaker 2: Bowen joining me is Thursday regular guests Varnaby Joyce, the
- 15:03Speaker 2: National's front bench and formative Deputy Prime Minister. Band to
- 15:07Speaker 2: be great to see you again, so you know again
- 15:09Speaker 2: today we're reminded of the devastation being caused by labours
- 15:12Speaker 2: and net zero policies. I've got to ask, though, what
- 15:15Speaker 2: about your own? I mean, where is the opposition When
- 15:18Speaker 2: is it going to finally admit that it's own at
- 15:20Speaker 2: zero targets are just as irrational and impossible and useless
- 15:23Speaker 2: of making the slightest difference to our climate.
- 15:26Speaker 8: Well, I think the main thing is where we are
- 15:29Speaker 8: on the path to at the moment, which is the
- 15:30Speaker 8: apparent twenty thirty by eighty two percent inter mint of power.
- 15:34Speaker 9: They're not new.
- 15:35Speaker 8: People keep playing them renewables. They're not renewable. Okay, they
- 15:38Speaker 8: need a mint of power. And where they are not farms,
- 15:40Speaker 8: the need a mint of power. Precincts. Not only do
- 15:42Speaker 8: they not want them on the coast off heart of Alliott,
- 15:46Speaker 8: we don't want them to get rid of either. We
- 15:48Speaker 8: don't want your garbage on our land, either we go
- 15:51Speaker 8: put your rubbish in Maringo. If that's where you want it,
- 15:54Speaker 8: go put your rubbish it off manly, but don't put
- 15:58Speaker 8: them in our seats. And true, it is inevitably true
- 16:02Speaker 8: that intermittent power pushes up the price of power. And
- 16:05Speaker 8: if you don't believe that, don't listen to Chris, don't
- 16:07Speaker 8: listen to outside. Listen to your power bill. Your power
- 16:11Speaker 8: bill is going through the roof. And what we are
- 16:14Speaker 8: seeing is this debate is not going to be won
- 16:16Speaker 8: by the Labor Party, of the Liberal Party, of the
- 16:18Speaker 8: National Party, the Teals or anybody else.
- 16:20Speaker 2: Is going to be won by physics.
- 16:21Speaker 8: When it becomes completely and utterly untenable that you can
- 16:25Speaker 8: possibly supply a nation unless you want to live in
- 16:28Speaker 8: a cave, unless you want to come out here to
- 16:29Speaker 8: danglemar and sleeping the grass there, sleeping the grass amongst
- 16:33Speaker 8: the cow many here. That's all right, and that's the
- 16:35Speaker 8: type of life you want. You can do that without electricity.
- 16:38Speaker 8: But if you want electricity, you have to have base
- 16:40Speaker 8: load power. And what we're seeing, even with Penny sharpenings
- 16:43Speaker 8: South Wales ice, they're paying to keep the cold fire
- 16:45Speaker 8: power stations going, and I think any plan's going to
- 16:48Speaker 8: be talking about keeping the caul fire power stations going
- 16:51Speaker 8: until such time as you have an alternative. But what
- 16:53Speaker 8: mister Barman's doing is saying I'll jump off the cliff
- 16:57Speaker 8: and develop a parachute on the weight to the ground.
- 16:59Speaker 8: And its just and what's happening absolute and out of chaos,
- 17:03Speaker 8: and yet again everybody's become poorer, and yet again your
- 17:06Speaker 8: power bills are gone up, and yet again you've given
- 17:09Speaker 8: these pathetic, smirky, mealy mouthed excuses from Minister Bone, who
- 17:13Speaker 8: would have to be the most unpopular politician in regional Australia,
- 17:17Speaker 8: even vastly more unpopular than miss ourb and easy and
- 17:19Speaker 8: that I thought was going to be a tough race.
- 17:22Speaker 8: But it's not.
- 17:24Speaker 2: Badaby. I noticed you have neatly steps sidestep my question
- 17:28Speaker 2: about your own net zero target because I know that
- 17:31Speaker 2: you think it's an absolute dog as well and don't
- 17:33Speaker 2: want to say it and cause embarrassment for the party.
- 17:35Speaker 2: But it's just ridiculous. And as for Zari Stegel, you know,
- 17:40Speaker 2: the member for a Ringer. She was celebrating no wind
- 17:43Speaker 2: farms off the Ringer coaster. They're celebrating, and they've got
- 17:47Speaker 2: to be everywhere else got her own, and.
- 17:50Speaker 8: Doesn't I just drive you insane, like this whole garbage
- 17:54Speaker 8: that we're doing to ourselves, driving our nation into destitution,
- 17:58Speaker 8: putting people out in the street is to make Zali
- 18:01Speaker 8: and her ilk have you?
- 18:02Speaker 2: This was for her.
- 18:04Speaker 7: You're doing all this for her.
- 18:06Speaker 8: And yet where if you take they will have a
- 18:08Speaker 8: little bit in your own backyard. Oh no, it's natural
- 18:11Speaker 8: heritage to trust or some other garbage. They have it
- 18:13Speaker 8: in your own backyard. Zali, put the transmission lines over.
- 18:16Speaker 8: Mossman can stand on your virtue.
- 18:21Speaker 2: Look, honestly, this is an urban religion where it's the
- 18:25Speaker 2: rural areas that get hit hardest. I mean, this is
- 18:27Speaker 2: one of those things you know. It's always the people
- 18:31Speaker 2: who live among concrete that think that the plate people
- 18:34Speaker 2: in the grasslands they've got to have the wind farms.
- 18:37Speaker 2: But not them, Not them. No, No, Tith Palmer is
- 18:41Speaker 2: back with the New Party. As you well know, Bannaby,
- 18:44Speaker 2: the billionaire there is hitting all the trump buttons in
- 18:46Speaker 2: his speech today. What do you make this? Have listened?
- 18:51Speaker 9: What's the priority of the Albanezi government? They give one
- 18:54Speaker 9: million dollars to food Bank to feed Australians. They give
- 18:57Speaker 9: six hundred million dollars the park and you get to
- 19:00Speaker 9: have a rugby league team. We've got to wake up
- 19:03Speaker 9: in this country and break up what's really happening.
- 19:06Speaker 2: Donald Trump and Nela mus could have written that Payer
- 19:08Speaker 2: Forum and I don't know, I think it might sell
- 19:11Speaker 2: their a message like that. What do you make of it?
- 19:13Speaker 2: It'll be a bit careful.
- 19:15Speaker 8: Elon Musk and Donald Trump are playing for the United
- 19:18Speaker 8: States of America and playing only for the United States
- 19:21Speaker 8: of America, and playing a very, very hard game for
- 19:24Speaker 8: the United States of America. Our world has changed. Its
- 19:27Speaker 8: changed overwhelmingly. The moment of Chinese warship turned up off
- 19:31Speaker 8: the case of Sydney. Sydney, where you want all this
- 19:34Speaker 8: indemndent power to go to start firing off missiles. It
- 19:38Speaker 8: changed the moment the United States America started putting tariffs
- 19:41Speaker 8: on Australian d steel in Australian aluminium.
- 19:44Speaker 11: We've got to.
- 19:44Speaker 8: Realize we are living in a different world and club's
- 19:47Speaker 8: a very shrewd, shrewd, shrewd demand. But playing the playing
- 19:52Speaker 8: the US playbook in Australia doesn't really work. Because we're
- 19:56Speaker 8: probably one of the victims of it, where probably who's
- 19:59Speaker 8: going to be hurt by it. I don't know whether
- 20:01Speaker 8: we want to completely play by it.
- 20:05Speaker 2: Last night, Barnaby and I'm talking to an expert in
- 20:08Speaker 2: these matters. I showed the American influencer who stole the
- 20:12Speaker 2: baby wan Batter joe from its mother. The poor animal
- 20:16Speaker 2: try to chase them with the Joey squealing in distressful Listen, look.
- 20:22Speaker 7: At the mother.
- 20:23Speaker 2: It's like, oh, says an after thank that's true. The
- 20:31Speaker 2: influencer did give the baby back, but imigretor Minister Tony
- 20:35Speaker 2: Burks is looking at canceling a visa, acting faster on
- 20:38Speaker 2: her than he has on our hate preachers. You're an
- 20:41Speaker 2: expert in this area because as Agriculture minister, you told
- 20:44Speaker 2: that that Johnny Depp and his then wife to remove
- 20:46Speaker 2: their dogs Pistol and Boo that they brought in without
- 20:49Speaker 2: quarantining them, or you'd kill them, I mean the dogs,
- 20:53Speaker 2: Johnny Depp, what would you say in this.
- 20:55Speaker 8: Matter's clown class one clown? I mean, I look either
- 21:01Speaker 8: about the country where you know we do have to
- 21:03Speaker 8: cul kangaro as, we do have to shoot rabbitson and
- 21:06Speaker 8: we don't like it. We don't like doing unnecessarily cruel
- 21:10Speaker 8: things unless we have to, unless it's absolutely imperative as
- 21:14Speaker 8: part of the management process. But running up to a
- 21:17Speaker 8: warm bat and stealing, it's stealing. It's basically it's it's
- 21:21Speaker 8: joey and running off with a gigglings.
- 21:24Speaker 12: No, you don't do that. And look, I worked with
- 21:27Speaker 12: some pretty tough fellas and I don't know. We'd never
- 21:30Speaker 12: go through our head, So why did it go through hers?
- 21:33Speaker 12: It's just a clown.
- 21:36Speaker 2: I don't get it. Yeah, but the guy laughing had
- 21:40Speaker 2: an Australian accent as so far as I could make out. Well,
- 21:47Speaker 2: temparade the clowns to the left of us, joke us
- 21:50Speaker 2: to the right, Barnaby Joyce, I'm stuck in the middle
- 21:52Speaker 2: with you, Thank you so much. Indeed, before the break,
- 21:57Speaker 2: a quick update yesterday reported that Donald Trump had got
- 21:59Speaker 2: you Ukraine to agree to cease fire in the war
- 22:02Speaker 2: against the Russian invaders there, And I said, now comes
- 22:06Speaker 2: the hard part, you know, bullying Ukraine into this easy,
- 22:10Speaker 2: getting the Russian president and war croneal Vladimir Putin to agree.
- 22:14Speaker 2: Pune's response to a ceasefire offer has been to where
- 22:19Speaker 2: army camouflage, which is very unusual for him, and a
- 22:22Speaker 2: flat jacket and go visit his soldiers in Kurse. That's
- 22:26Speaker 2: the little bit of Russia that Ukraine is captured, hoping
- 22:29Speaker 2: to negotiate some of its own territory back later. He
- 22:32Speaker 2: is wanting his army to keep fighting to get it
- 22:35Speaker 2: all back. No cease fire. Donald Trump this morning said
- 22:38Speaker 2: he hadn't yet spoken to Putin, but did send him
- 22:40Speaker 2: a threat.
- 22:42Speaker 13: There are things you could do that wouldn't be pleasant.
- 22:45Speaker 13: In a financial sense. I can do things financially that
- 22:48Speaker 13: would be very bad for Russia. I don't want to
- 22:50Speaker 13: do that because I want to get peace. I want
- 22:52Speaker 13: to see peace and we'll see. But in a financial sense, yeah,
- 22:56Speaker 13: we could do things very bad for Russia.
- 22:58Speaker 2: Would be devastated for Russia. But if Trump actually does
- 23:01Speaker 2: now show the world that the real problem here is
- 23:04Speaker 2: not Ukraine or President Zelenski, it is Vladimir Putin and Russia,
- 23:10Speaker 2: then Trump will have done a lot of good. Now
- 23:16Speaker 2: after the break, oh, I should actually show you about
- 23:18Speaker 2: that influencer stealing the joey. I've got to give the
- 23:23Speaker 2: Prime minister some credit. He actually had a good line
- 23:25Speaker 2: on that today have looked.
- 23:27Speaker 4: I suggest to this so called influencer, maybe she might
- 23:32Speaker 4: try some other Australian animals. Take a baby crocodile from
- 23:36Speaker 4: its mother and see how you go there. Take another
- 23:40Speaker 4: animal that can actually fight.
- 23:42Speaker 2: Back after the break. A labor event for Chinese voters,
- 23:46Speaker 2: we're way to Australian say they were turned back. The
- 23:49Speaker 2: footage is amazing. There was something very odd, very divisive
- 23:58Speaker 2: about a labor event at box Hill. Box Hill is
- 24:01Speaker 2: very Chinese area of Melbourne's almost a colony, you could say,
- 24:04Speaker 2: I mean thirty nine percent Chinese ancestry and labor. Held
- 24:08Speaker 2: an information note for voters of the box the town
- 24:11Speaker 2: hall featuring foreigners the piny Wong Chinese descent. A former
- 24:15Speaker 2: premier Dan Andrews the only premier to sign up so
- 24:17Speaker 2: the Communist China's controversial Belton Road initiative. A booking site
- 24:21Speaker 2: described it as a Chinese town hall. Andrew seems to
- 24:25Speaker 2: have canceled last minute. But here's the odd thing. Some locals,
- 24:28Speaker 2: not Chinese, claim they were shut out.
- 24:32Speaker 14: I'm not going to sign in and get my details,
- 24:35Speaker 14: and I'm here to you know, I've got this in
- 24:37Speaker 14: the mail bombs about it.
- 24:38Speaker 7: So you go this in the mail? Are you local?
- 24:40Speaker 9: Yes?
- 24:41Speaker 7: So that Matt macgregg, so I also written here.
- 24:44Speaker 5: To speaking here.
- 24:45Speaker 10: There you go, and they still aren't living in to
- 24:47Speaker 10: see what he's got to say.
- 24:48Speaker 7: Unbelievable.
- 24:49Speaker 15: So locals are getting these in the mail and they're
- 24:51Speaker 15: coming here, registering their name, registering their dress, talking to
- 24:54Speaker 15: the police, not being allowed any closed doors.
- 24:58Speaker 2: Now people said, oh, the pl say that these people
- 25:01Speaker 2: had invalid tickets and thing really now, I should add
- 25:05Speaker 2: there were also protests outside the event, people worried by communists,
- 25:09Speaker 2: China's attempts to mobilize voters here, and even some white
- 25:13Speaker 2: nationalists were there, although there was absolutely no violence, threats
- 25:15Speaker 2: for abuse, I could make out at least John Miss
- 25:19Speaker 2: Chris de Broner, who's activist news site Chris Curries, filmed
- 25:23Speaker 2: that confrontation and they focus on Chinese companist influence here.
- 25:29Speaker 2: Chris de Broner, thank you so much, indeed for your time.
- 25:31Speaker 2: What happened there? From what you know? Why were some
- 25:34Speaker 2: people excluded?
- 25:36Speaker 1: One group got in one group didn't?
- 25:39Speaker 16: Depends on how you got your tickets, whether it was
- 25:40Speaker 16: through w Chat, depends on how you looked.
- 25:42Speaker 1: The Labor Party has to answer this.
- 25:44Speaker 16: They were the organizers of this event, which it seemed
- 25:46Speaker 16: like if you brought it through tribbooking, an English language site,
- 25:49Speaker 16: you were closely scrutinied and assessed whether there are seats available.
- 25:52Speaker 1: If you got it through we chat, no problem.
- 25:55Speaker 16: In fact, even without tickets at all, there were multiple
- 25:58Speaker 16: different people that my reported down there able to capture
- 26:01Speaker 16: that got in without being checked in any way whatsoever.
- 26:03Speaker 16: I don't know why, but the answers didn't add up.
- 26:10Speaker 2: Now we Chat, of course, as a Chinese based website,
- 26:14Speaker 2: there have been some concerns about the security. It's a government,
- 26:20Speaker 2: no doubt, will be all over we Chat controlling that
- 26:22Speaker 2: the Chinese government Chinese language, it seems to have been
- 26:27Speaker 2: very much slanted to allowing in Chinese voters, but not
- 26:34Speaker 2: so much if you were Chinese. That seems to have
- 26:38Speaker 2: been an issue with the number of people your people interviewed.
- 26:41Speaker 16: Right A town hall specifically set up for the Chinese community,
- 26:46Speaker 16: hosted by former Premier Daniel Andrews, with close links with
- 26:50Speaker 16: multiple visits of China, not well scrutinized, and the Foreign
- 26:53Speaker 16: Minister manages to have time for this event as well
- 26:56Speaker 16: advertisements that went out exclusively that I could find only
- 26:59Speaker 16: in Chinese language and only people who responded through wichat
- 27:02Speaker 16: and were verified by wichat, So their profile has got
- 27:05Speaker 16: security verified through their Wichat profile. Well, look, you put
- 27:09Speaker 16: all of these pieces together and you end up with
- 27:11Speaker 16: what so many attendees there said. This is racial profiling,
- 27:15Speaker 16: This is racism. This is Chinese people who seem to
- 27:18Speaker 16: be allowed in, but anyone who doesn't look Chinese or
- 27:20Speaker 16: the wrong type doesn't get allowed in. The Labor Party
- 27:23Speaker 16: organized this event. The Labor Party has to answer this.
- 27:25Speaker 16: And the Labor Party organizers there, as you saw so
- 27:27Speaker 16: many times, were so dismissive, looking away, drinking, laughing with
- 27:31Speaker 16: each other when people were actually being quite polite and
- 27:33Speaker 16: asking these questions. There was a ruckus outside, but the
- 27:37Speaker 16: questions need to be answered by the organizers of this event.
- 27:40Speaker 1: They're responsible for it.
- 27:43Speaker 2: Well, you mentioned the ruckus outside. Could it have been
- 27:46Speaker 2: that the organizers thought, oh, you know, we don't want
- 27:48Speaker 2: to let in people that might cause a fuss inside.
- 27:52Speaker 1: Then why weren't the police worried about it?
- 27:54Speaker 16: Because there's multiple videos that I've published which include a
- 27:57Speaker 16: police officer walking over to the protests to check every
- 28:00Speaker 16: things are okay, and then the protester a laughing and
- 28:02Speaker 16: saying no worries. The police needed them to move in
- 28:04Speaker 16: a certain direction. That was happy to I cover protests.
- 28:07Speaker 16: I cover riots.
- 28:08Speaker 1: If you have protesters who are going to cause a problem, they.
- 28:10Speaker 16: Don't do what police asked, they don't laugh in spianshet yeah.
- 28:14Speaker 1: No worries.
- 28:14Speaker 2: We'll move over here.
- 28:15Speaker 1: Yeah no, always will go over there. They start arguing
- 28:18Speaker 1: with the police.
- 28:18Speaker 16: And that's where as Nigel Faraj ended up with a
- 28:21Speaker 16: protest which could not be controlled, he ended up with
- 28:24Speaker 16: the bill of that.
- 28:24Speaker 1: I somehow don't think the Labor Party is going to
- 28:26Speaker 1: get a bill from Vicpol for this event tonight.
- 28:30Speaker 2: It's interesting. It's not just the racial profiling that I
- 28:35Speaker 2: think will upset or the apparent racial profiling that will
- 28:39Speaker 2: upset a lot of people. But I think you wouldn't
- 28:42Speaker 2: have been there just for that. You would have been
- 28:44Speaker 2: there given your concern with the Commonist Party influence in Australia,
- 28:50Speaker 2: and particularly the influence exerted through some in the Chinese community.
- 28:56Speaker 2: Is that the bit that got.
- 28:57Speaker 1: You absolutely absolutely.
- 29:00Speaker 16: It often tends to be people in the Chinese community
- 29:02Speaker 16: who reach him out to me with tips, which is
- 29:04Speaker 16: why I sent a reporter to go and grab news
- 29:07Speaker 16: from this, because I knew that as soon as Daniel
- 29:09Speaker 16: Andrews comes out, that is an absolute firestorm. He's been very,
- 29:14Speaker 16: very suspicious in his dealings with China, and I don't
- 29:18Speaker 16: mean about business.
- 29:18Speaker 1: I'm talking about political influence and.
- 29:20Speaker 16: This is people within the Chinese community who are concerned
- 29:23Speaker 16: about it as well.
- 29:24Speaker 1: This is not a black, white Chinese, not Chinese. This
- 29:27Speaker 1: is not a racial issue.
- 29:29Speaker 16: Political influence from abroad wherever it's coming from, it from
- 29:33Speaker 16: Moody or be it from further Afield, is of concern
- 29:36Speaker 16: to people who are here who may have hailed from
- 29:38Speaker 16: that country once but are now Australians. Is that what
- 29:41Speaker 16: the Labor Party is trying to pursue here, which is
- 29:43Speaker 16: we are now Australians or are they trying to win
- 29:46Speaker 16: certain segments of donor groups which so many times have
- 29:49Speaker 16: been caught with hands in the jar. Here in New
- 29:51Speaker 16: South Wales we had bags of cash linked to Quang
- 29:54Speaker 16: Zamo and deported influence agents. This is what the Labor
- 29:58Speaker 16: Party needs to deal with to try and do better
- 30:01Speaker 16: and not hold events like this which lead them open
- 30:04Speaker 16: to criticism or they're fine with it and they're happy
- 30:07Speaker 16: to court this.
- 30:10Speaker 2: Well, that's all the more reason I would have thought
- 30:12Speaker 2: to open these political meetings at a community hall, mind you,
- 30:17Speaker 2: a town hall to all Australians and not just the
- 30:20Speaker 2: one particular segment that you're pitching to. I think that's
- 30:25Speaker 2: very important. Chris the Browner, thank you so much indeed
- 30:27Speaker 2: for your time.
- 30:29Speaker 1: Thanks Andrew.
- 30:31Speaker 2: I mean asked Labor for a response to what we're
- 30:33Speaker 2: talking about there, and Esposeman gave a very non responsive answer.
- 30:36Speaker 2: Really said this event was organized as part of Labour's
- 30:39Speaker 2: outreach of the Chinese community to understand their concerns ahead
- 30:43Speaker 2: of the federal election. Connecting with multicultural communities is normal
- 30:47Speaker 2: and important for any political party. After the break on Tuesday,
- 30:53Speaker 2: I named seven university academics who say they're Aborigines when
- 30:57Speaker 2: their records apparently say they are not. Reaction amazes me.
- 31:05Speaker 2: I would have follow up in something I showed you
- 31:07Speaker 2: on Tuesday, because this really is a scandal. You would
- 31:10Speaker 2: think that if I showed seven academics from Australian universities
- 31:15Speaker 2: who seem to have wrongly claimed they were Aborigines and
- 31:19Speaker 2: some actually having jobs apparently for Aborigines, the universities would
- 31:24Speaker 2: at least ask questions or prove me wrong. Universities are
- 31:29Speaker 2: in the truth business, aren't they. Well, let me show
- 31:32Speaker 2: you the seven again, and let me be clear, I
- 31:34Speaker 2: am not not accusing them of lying. They may just
- 31:38Speaker 2: have been mistaken about being averaged. Maybe they trusted the
- 31:41Speaker 2: stories of their mum or I might be mistaken. In fact,
- 31:45Speaker 2: professional genealogists the document exposed dot org website have written
- 31:49Speaker 2: to them. I have written to them most of them too,
- 31:53Speaker 2: saying well, look, you know, genealogical records we've found show
- 31:56Speaker 2: you don't have a single average and answers that we
- 31:58Speaker 2: might be wrongly show us where and we've had no
- 32:01Speaker 2: response and no substantive response legal threats. So that's about it.
- 32:04Speaker 2: So here again, other seven Aboriginal academics. You say they're original,
- 32:08Speaker 2: and the evidence I have say they're not. And silence
- 32:11Speaker 2: crickets from the universities.
- 32:14Speaker 8: And I said to the guy as hell, yeah I'm Aboriginal.
- 32:16Speaker 2: Yeah that's that's fine. My mom and my nan have
- 32:19Speaker 2: told us. And he told me, well, no, you can't tick
- 32:22Speaker 2: that box, he says, because you're not you know, you're
- 32:24Speaker 2: too wi.
- 32:25Speaker 17: This Aboriginal in the denial of the white to be
- 32:29Speaker 17: recognized on our own land.
- 32:31Speaker 10: The real world is not a safe place for Indigenous people.
- 32:35Speaker 3: Aboriginal Australians not only invented bread, they also invented society.
- 32:42Speaker 17: But I want to welcome you by singing a song
- 32:46Speaker 17: that Pamelway wrote next slide, so that you can sing
- 32:49Speaker 17: this song.
- 32:49Speaker 1: Of welcome wherever you go.
- 32:51Speaker 2: I'm just gonna.
- 32:53Speaker 11: Up my clapsticks.
- 32:55Speaker 8: Blah, but mom, I'm going to wear and gorner.
- 32:59Speaker 3: I'm from the demand and as I've said, the Gamarigl
- 33:02Speaker 3: are the people from this country and this is our
- 33:05Speaker 3: traditional lands.
- 33:06Speaker 1: I'm Narragu. I'm from the snowy mountains in southeastern Australia.
- 33:11Speaker 11: That's my mob.
- 33:13Speaker 2: Now. Tuesday also showed you another twelve academics, again Australian universities,
- 33:18Speaker 2: who also identify as Aboriginal. But I am not saying
- 33:21Speaker 2: these twelve have no Aboriginal ancestors. Some in fact, I'm
- 33:25Speaker 2: certain they do. I know. I'm just saying that, given
- 33:28Speaker 2: their other obvious non Aboriginal ancestry and also their success,
- 33:32Speaker 2: why do these academics also stress their aboriginality is relevant
- 33:37Speaker 2: to their job. Why did so many academics have their
- 33:40Speaker 2: careers in some way invested it's saying they are aboriginal
- 33:43Speaker 2: when they obviously also have a lot of non aboriginal ancestors. Well,
- 33:49Speaker 2: joining me is Roger Cargesh. He's the head of dark
- 33:52Speaker 2: emu exposed dot org, whose genealogists have investigated that the
- 33:56Speaker 2: first seven academics I showed you, Roger. Always great to
- 33:59Speaker 2: see you know, those first seven academics, they say they're aboriginal.
- 34:05Speaker 2: Genealogical records, As far as we can tell the show,
- 34:07Speaker 2: they're not. No averaginal ancestry. Don't universities make their own checks,
- 34:12Speaker 2: especially being promoting or hiring academics on the basis of
- 34:16Speaker 2: their supposed race.
- 34:20Speaker 15: Well you'd think they would, Andrew, But I'll just tell
- 34:23Speaker 15: you what's happening. I got indirectly contacted by a major
- 34:27Speaker 15: Australian university who've got a professor who they think is
- 34:31Speaker 15: a fake, and they want me to do the genealogy
- 34:34Speaker 15: to work out if they are a fake. And I
- 34:37Speaker 15: assume that they would confront them with that and get
- 34:39Speaker 15: rid of them.
- 34:40Speaker 11: So this is a major university.
- 34:42Speaker 15: They turn over hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars,
- 34:45Speaker 15: and they want a little person like me to do
- 34:47Speaker 15: the genealogy for them for free so they can then
- 34:51Speaker 15: give it to their HR department to go and challenge
- 34:54Speaker 15: this academic.
- 34:55Speaker 11: These people are just unbelievably incompetent.
- 35:01Speaker 2: They could simply ask for someone the person claiming their
- 35:06Speaker 2: aboriginal the first proof themselves. How hard is it to
- 35:09Speaker 2: actually do that to prove you are Aboriginal, or for
- 35:12Speaker 2: a university to check, other than to make you do
- 35:14Speaker 2: thousands of dollars of free research for.
- 35:16Speaker 11: Them, It's very easy, Edrew.
- 35:19Speaker 15: I think on an earlier program I showed you what
- 35:21Speaker 15: working class Aboriginal people have to do.
- 35:24Speaker 11: This is from one of my contacts.
- 35:25Speaker 15: I don't think you can see it, but he wanted
- 35:28Speaker 15: to send his kids to TAFE and so he got
- 35:31Speaker 15: this genealogy done for free by the New South Wales
- 35:34Speaker 15: NTS Corps. And they've got all the records or the
- 35:37Speaker 15: Aboriginal records, so they did it for him. Fifteen weeks
- 35:39Speaker 15: later they do the family tree for him and they
- 35:42Speaker 15: give him a letter that says, you know, there you are.
- 35:45Speaker 15: You're approved that we've confirmed your Aboriginal ancestry. So that's
- 35:50Speaker 15: what working class people have to do to get their
- 35:52Speaker 15: kids into tape, which is you know it's difficult, but
- 35:55Speaker 15: you know fair enough.
- 35:56Speaker 11: But academics they're in a different league of their own.
- 36:00Speaker 15: Example, I think I mentioned on one of your programs,
- 36:02Speaker 15: Professor Bromwin Carlson. We under freedom of information, we got
- 36:06Speaker 15: her application form for the Statter Award and she has
- 36:09Speaker 15: to satisfy them she's aboriginal. And there's two categories. You
- 36:13Speaker 15: can either provide a confirmation of aboriginality. She didn't tick
- 36:16Speaker 15: that box, but then she provided two referees, which are
- 36:20Speaker 15: meant to be culturally appropriate. So, like I said last time,
- 36:24Speaker 15: she just got two friends from down the pub who
- 36:26Speaker 15: are culturally appropriate.
- 36:27Speaker 11: Tick the box and there's the referees.
- 36:29Speaker 15: And that's what the university accept And it's so easy
- 36:33Speaker 15: for a university to do what we do. Say to
- 36:35Speaker 15: a person, this is a senior role for an aboriginal.
- 36:39Speaker 15: We want you to go and get a genealogist to
- 36:43Speaker 15: do your family tree and we'll be happy with that.
- 36:46Speaker 11: Can't be harder than that.
- 36:47Speaker 2: Now, when you said, too, when you said two friends
- 36:50Speaker 2: down the pub to do it, are you're speaking obviously metaphorically,
- 36:53Speaker 2: but lawyers don't think in metaphors, so I'll just stress
- 36:56Speaker 2: it for them. It's metaphorically. They could be very nice people,
- 37:00Speaker 2: very good people. But the point is when you ask
- 37:02Speaker 2: for the freedom of information, as you can see the
- 37:05Speaker 2: big black boxes redacted, so we don't know who they were.
- 37:10Speaker 2: Doesn't matter, Roger.
- 37:13Speaker 15: It matters a lot, Andrew, because the public have to
- 37:16Speaker 15: be assured that we have trust in our institutions. So
- 37:21Speaker 15: Australia is a unique country. There's not many countries in
- 37:24Speaker 15: the world where you have trust. You know, you're going
- 37:26Speaker 15: to a supermarket, you buy a product, you trust that
- 37:29Speaker 15: there's all the people in the background making sure the
- 37:32Speaker 15: quality is done. You're going to eat the product, You're
- 37:34Speaker 15: not going to die. We've got regulations and everything for that.
- 37:37Speaker 15: So our whole society has been able to progress to
- 37:40Speaker 15: the brilliant state that is in in Australia because we
- 37:43Speaker 15: have this commodity called trust. Millions of millions of people
- 37:47Speaker 15: live in countries where there is no trust.
- 37:49Speaker 11: You can't trust anyone.
- 37:51Speaker 15: So these people are not satisfying the public that they
- 37:55Speaker 15: have trust. We're losing our trust that they've been selling
- 37:59Speaker 15: the truth about their jobs. Or they're not confirming it,
- 38:02Speaker 15: And that's the problem. It really does matter because now
- 38:06Speaker 15: everyone's getting suspicious. And once everyone gets suspicious, then you
- 38:10Speaker 15: don't trust. I mean, if this academic says they're Aboriginal
- 38:14Speaker 15: and they're not, how can I trust what they're saying
- 38:17Speaker 15: to the students. How can I trust their research? How
- 38:19Speaker 15: can I trust their scholarship? And everything goes into doubt.
- 38:23Speaker 15: That's the problem.
- 38:25Speaker 2: Well, we saw that with Bruce Pasco. In fact, you
- 38:28Speaker 2: can't trust this scholarship at all. Has claimed that averages
- 38:31Speaker 2: were actually farmers, not hunt gatherers. I mean exactly. University
- 38:36Speaker 2: is supposed to be in the truth business, and if
- 38:38Speaker 2: they can't even tell the truth about themselves, then what
- 38:42Speaker 2: else are they not telling the truth about Roger car
- 38:45Speaker 2: I mean, you've done unbelievable work, so fascinating. I recommend
- 38:50Speaker 2: people go to your website darkimuexposed dot org and see
- 38:54Speaker 2: the results of some of it. Thank you so much, indeed,
- 38:57Speaker 2: for your time. After the break, the King takes on
- 39:03Speaker 2: Donald Trump over Canada, says it's mine Donald Clive Palmer
- 39:14Speaker 2: is back with a new party. If ind in left
- 39:16Speaker 2: wing journalists everywhere today, For instance, he ran a front
- 39:20Speaker 2: page ad ad on the very lift wing age newspaper
- 39:23Speaker 2: in Melbourne. There are only two genders, male and female.
- 39:27Speaker 2: Was so outraged the staff that they ran an editorial
- 39:31Speaker 2: right above it calling him names, They take his money
- 39:34Speaker 2: and then they call him a persistent wart on the
- 39:37Speaker 2: foot of Australian politics, which is very odd metaphor. I
- 39:40Speaker 2: think writing talent has has disappeared at that paper. Left
- 39:43Speaker 2: wing journals seemed almost disgusted today at the National Press
- 39:47Speaker 2: Club to even have Calve Palmer there and didn't have
- 39:51Speaker 2: Clive have fun with them.
- 39:54Speaker 14: You're not really getting any solid political power out of this.
- 39:57Speaker 14: People aren't really enjoying your television as your spam text
- 40:00Speaker 14: messages and so forth.
- 40:02Speaker 7: What is it all about?
- 40:04Speaker 14: I mean, I mean, like obviously it's just about to
- 40:06Speaker 14: have opportunities like this well for at the Press Club
- 40:09Speaker 14: or in television.
- 40:09Speaker 9: Adept me just answer your questions because there's a lot there.
- 40:12Speaker 9: First of all, I understand I agree with you that
- 40:14Speaker 9: people from the Guardian readers are not enjoying our ads
- 40:16Speaker 9: at all, and I can understand that.
- 40:26Speaker 2: Joining me is James McPherson from the Late Debate here
- 40:28Speaker 2: on scar News at ten o'clock and Evyden Ray Farmer,
- 40:32Speaker 2: former policewoman, Sky News regular, all round, good sort. Thank
- 40:37Speaker 2: you so much to you both, James, Clive Palmer was
- 40:42Speaker 2: one good thing. He gives entertainment on the on the stump,
- 40:45Speaker 2: although he does keep us. I have to say discussing company,
- 40:49Speaker 2: the conspiracy kook and putin fanboor attack of Carlson is
- 40:52Speaker 2: going to help him promote the party. But do you
- 40:54Speaker 2: think he'll do well here as a mini Trump? Bunny
- 40:57Speaker 2: Joyce said.
- 40:57Speaker 17: No, Andrew, I'm not sure I would describe Clive Palmer
- 41:01Speaker 17: as a mini anything. He's bigger than life. As a
- 41:05Speaker 17: mini Trump, I don't know. Look, he shares in common
- 41:09Speaker 17: with Donald Trump that he's very wealthy and he's a disruptor,
- 41:13Speaker 17: but I think he lacks Trump's flair, Trump's ability to organize.
- 41:18Speaker 17: Certainly he lacks Trump's leadership, as demonstrated by the fact
- 41:21Speaker 17: in twenty thirteen Palmer's United Australia Party won six percent
- 41:26Speaker 17: of the national vote. But they've never been able to
- 41:28Speaker 17: build on that. And so I just don't think Clive Palmer,
- 41:32Speaker 17: for all the entertainment, he just doesn't have the leadership
- 41:35Speaker 17: to organize anything. That's going to make a difference nationally
- 41:39Speaker 17: to those newspaper ads. I mean, good on him for
- 41:41Speaker 17: being able to run them. What Clive Palmer does is
- 41:43Speaker 17: he's able to expose quite ruthlessly the hypocrisy of the left.
- 41:47Speaker 17: I mean he offended them greatly by saying that there
- 41:50Speaker 17: are two genders. The Age accused him of being divisive
- 41:54Speaker 17: and then called him a wart. Well tell me what
- 41:57Speaker 17: is more divisive, Andrews saying that there's mail and email
- 42:00Speaker 17: or calling somebody a wart.
- 42:05Speaker 2: So true, Evelyn. Look, just on that Trump style pitch.
- 42:09Speaker 2: I mean, there's lines that are Trump's style, but I
- 42:13Speaker 2: wonder if they would actually work here, and I'll give
- 42:16Speaker 2: you one of them. Here's one of the things he said, what's.
- 42:19Speaker 9: The priority of the Albanezi government. They give one million
- 42:22Speaker 9: dollars to Food Bank to feed Australians. They give six
- 42:26Speaker 9: hundred million dollars to PARPU in New Guinea to have
- 42:28Speaker 9: a rugby league team. We've got to wake up in
- 42:31Speaker 9: this country and wreak up what's really happening.
- 42:34Speaker 2: What do you think, Evelyn?
- 42:36Speaker 7: Look, I hate to say it, but where's the lie.
- 42:39Speaker 10: There is none. I guess that's the difference between Clive
- 42:42Speaker 10: and our politicians currently in power. At least Clive's telling
- 42:46Speaker 10: the truth. I mean, you can't fault him for that.
- 42:49Speaker 10: I really do think Australians are losing so much faith
- 42:53Speaker 10: with our uniparty system.
- 42:54Speaker 7: I mean, that's what it is.
- 42:56Speaker 10: Let's call a spade a spade, because at the moment, sadly,
- 43:00Speaker 10: the Liberals aren't much different from Labor their labor light.
- 43:04Speaker 10: And I think that, you know, although Clive is most
- 43:07Speaker 10: certainly not a Trump or a mini Trump, what he's
- 43:11Speaker 10: doing is very intelligent in that he's kind of, you know,
- 43:15Speaker 10: doing a Stephen Bradbury in a way. He's coming in,
- 43:19Speaker 10: you know, on the coattails of Trump and honing into
- 43:22Speaker 10: something that Trump brings that we all have envy of,
- 43:25Speaker 10: which is a leader who is just going to call
- 43:28Speaker 10: a spade a spade and call the truth the truth.
- 43:31Speaker 7: So good on him for that.
- 43:33Speaker 10: But what I would love to see is these right
- 43:36Speaker 10: wing parties form some kind of coalition. I know there's
- 43:40Speaker 10: been talk about this going on, and I think that's
- 43:43Speaker 10: incredibly smart because perhaps that is exactly the sort of
- 43:47Speaker 10: pressure that the Liberal Party need right now, and maybe
- 43:50Speaker 10: in doing so, not only will we get some really
- 43:53Speaker 10: good freedom fighting advocates in you know, our powerful positions.
- 43:58Speaker 10: But it will hope fully give a kick up the
- 44:01Speaker 10: butt to our liberal party who most certainly need it now.
- 44:04Speaker 10: I mean, who the heck at this point in time
- 44:07Speaker 10: is advising Dutton because I'd like to sack them, and
- 44:11Speaker 10: maybe Clive can be Dutton's advisory. At this point, anything
- 44:14Speaker 10: is better than what we're getting, and you know, I
- 44:17Speaker 10: just think it's about time.
- 44:19Speaker 7: Somebody does it.
- 44:21Speaker 10: And maybe Clive is just going to be the you know,
- 44:24Speaker 10: break the ice for that.
- 44:28Speaker 2: We shall see. There's how the parts of his agenda
- 44:30Speaker 2: I'm not so sure about. Meanwhile, Donald Trump himself James
- 44:35Speaker 2: might be getting into bigger fights than he probably wants,
- 44:38Speaker 2: particularly given his reverence for the royal family in Britain.
- 44:42Speaker 2: I have to say his pole numbers people. If Trump
- 44:44Speaker 2: fans won't like to hear it, but they have fallen
- 44:46Speaker 2: even more because of the chaos over the year, tariffs
- 44:49Speaker 2: and all that, and now the King has even weighed
- 44:52Speaker 2: in in a very understated way because Trump has been
- 44:55Speaker 2: telling Canada he wants it to become America's fifty first
- 44:58Speaker 2: state and he may be even crush its car industry
- 45:01Speaker 2: to get it. The King is now reminded Trump indirectly
- 45:05Speaker 2: that he is the King of Canada as well and
- 45:08Speaker 2: has a great affection for Canada. Trump versus the King,
- 45:13Speaker 2: who would win?
- 45:15Speaker 17: Is that a serious question? Andrew two things. Firstly, why
- 45:19Speaker 17: would America ever annex Canada. No one believes this is
- 45:22Speaker 17: going to happen. Canada has a lower income per head
- 45:25Speaker 17: of population than Mississippi, which is the lowest income per
- 45:29Speaker 17: head of population in all of the fifty states. In addition,
- 45:33Speaker 17: why would Trump want to import a nation that is
- 45:35Speaker 17: so left wing? He's got nothing to gain by that.
- 45:38Speaker 17: It's all just trolling. But as for the King, I mean,
- 45:43Speaker 17: do the Canadians really think that he'll defend them? The
- 45:46Speaker 17: King's not defending British values. Just the other day, of course,
- 45:49Speaker 17: we saw the King who's meant to be the defender
- 45:51Speaker 17: of the faith, that is, the Church of England promoting
- 45:55Speaker 17: Ramadan for the Muslim community. Anyone who's putting their faith
- 45:58Speaker 17: in King Charles to stand for anything other than you know,
- 46:02Speaker 17: net zero and globalization has got rocks in their head.
- 46:07Speaker 2: That said, Evelyn, Trump has mentioned it about well, I
- 46:11Speaker 2: don't know how often that he'd like to have Canada,
- 46:13Speaker 2: and I think he'd rather love to be the president
- 46:16Speaker 2: of the Left of America bigger than it was when
- 46:19Speaker 2: he got it. What do you make of it?
- 46:22Speaker 10: Look, I'm happy to volunteer Australia. I don't know about
- 46:25Speaker 10: you guys, but like I mean, why don't we offer
- 46:28Speaker 10: Trump out lovely little island.
- 46:30Speaker 7: Here at this point in time?
- 46:31Speaker 1: I'd be happy.
- 46:32Speaker 10: But look, you know it's been tried and tested before,
- 46:35Speaker 10: hasn't it. It didn't end for the monarch too well about
- 46:38Speaker 10: two hundred and fifty years ago, I did it, So
- 46:41Speaker 10: I don't think it would end so well this way
- 46:43Speaker 10: for poor old Charles h.
- 46:48Speaker 7: As James said, though I.
- 46:50Speaker 2: Saw him those subjects well, I actually saw Poles saying
- 46:54Speaker 2: that the Canadians, because of these attacks from Donald Trump,
- 46:57Speaker 2: now tend to want to be men of the European Union.
- 47:02Speaker 2: You believe that? So there you go. And I suspect
- 47:06Speaker 2: that Donald Trump is adding to Anthony Albanez's poll numbers,
- 47:11Speaker 2: which is a scary thought. Evlyon Ray Jameson Furson, thank
- 47:14Speaker 2: you very much to you both. Now for one last thing,
- 47:17Speaker 2: my big tip, my big tip to this week is
- 47:21Speaker 2: on Netflix actually a mini series and one of my
- 47:23Speaker 2: all time favorite books, The Leopard, a novel about a
- 47:26Speaker 2: Sicilian prince written by a real Sicilian prince, Giuseppe Tamarsi
- 47:31Speaker 2: di Lampaduzza. You watch it in Italian, don't do the
- 47:34Speaker 2: dubbed version, watch with subtitles. It's not just that this
- 47:38Speaker 2: is a really lusciously shot and acted mini series, but
- 47:43Speaker 2: it is a mini series and perhaps the greatest conservative
- 47:46Speaker 2: novel ever written, and very moving one too, very rich
- 47:50Speaker 2: in knowledge of humanity. It's about how to deal with
- 47:54Speaker 2: change and revolution, in this case, how Italy was invaded
- 47:57Speaker 2: by Garibaldi and made part of the new bright Italian nation.
- 48:02Speaker 7: Has Ergie took a.
- 48:05Speaker 8: Lasta nostra vanita happy fort and it was yes, yes,
- 48:08Speaker 8: ergy to record, And.
- 48:14Speaker 2: It's how princess like the Leopard had to deal with
- 48:16Speaker 2: the rise of jackals, like the mayor who was armed
- 48:20Speaker 2: with the beautifully, faithfully beautiful daughter. Nothing can replaced the
- 48:25Speaker 2: novel itself, The Leopard, which you can as always ordered
- 48:28Speaker 2: from my friends at Robinson's Bookshop. You click on my
- 48:31Speaker 2: name of the left of the screen and you find
- 48:32Speaker 2: all my tips so far right there. The one thing
- 48:37Speaker 2: about that mini series it throws away one of the
- 48:40Speaker 2: great lines, you know, for things to say as they are.
- 48:44Speaker 2: Everything must change. That's it for me. Sherry Maxon up
- 48:48Speaker 2: next good Night,
