WEBVTT - The Rita Panahi Show | 12 June 0:00:02.640 --> 0:00:07.080 On scous Australia. This is the Winner Panalty Show. 0:00:08.960 --> 0:00:11.720 Good evening, ann Welcome to the readA Paney Show. Coming 0:00:11.800 --> 0:00:16.160 up tonight, Anthony Albernizi follows in Joe Biden's footsteps, devoting 0:00:16.239 --> 0:00:21.200 billions of taxpayer funds to student debt forgiveness. Victoria's woke 0:00:21.280 --> 0:00:25.319 policies are being mocked internationally. I guess it was only 0:00:25.320 --> 0:00:28.840 a matter of time. Meanwhile, the Jasinda Allen government is 0:00:28.880 --> 0:00:32.840 refusing to say it will intervene after CFO me you Boss, 0:00:32.920 --> 0:00:37.760 John Sedka threatened the AFL. Gary Hardgrave will tell us 0:00:37.800 --> 0:00:41.839 about the Queensland government's budget black hole, and the always 0:00:41.920 --> 0:00:45.280 droll Army Horowitz will have the latest from the US, 0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:49.879 including the Hunter Biden Saga and David Limbrick on the 0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:53.840 shocking youth crime crisis in Victoria. And of course, your 0:00:53.880 --> 0:00:58.440 favorite segment Left is losing it. Tonight's starring Justin Trudeau 0:00:59.080 --> 0:01:02.440 and a Biden hating dog called Molly. 0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:04.360 I think my dog is a. 0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:15.560 Let's bring in the Deputy Director of the Institute of 0:01:15.560 --> 0:01:20.080 Public Affairs, Daniel Wilde. Dan, we're seeing the alban Easy 0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:25.440 government veering further and further towards leftist idealism with a 0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:30.320 raft of radical policies with the potential to do enormous harm. 0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:35.720 They've abandoned reason, it seems for this ideology. We saw 0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:38.680 it with the Voice, we're seeing it with the NDIS, 0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:44.280 their climate policies, the immigration detention debarcle, and increasingly in 0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:48.440 their response to the Israeli har mass war. And janetal 0:01:48.520 --> 0:01:53.000 Brigson has written a fantastic piece in Today's Australian pointing 0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:57.280 out the labor is being hijacked by activists. She says 0:01:57.320 --> 0:02:02.040 not only is idealism insufficient to secure results on its own, 0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:05.360 it will often hurt those it aims to help. Get 0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:09.359 The alban Easy government is bathing in the staff, submerging 0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:13.600 the rest of us in it too. Domestically idealistic policies, 0:02:13.800 --> 0:02:17.519 untethered from reality and from the lessons of the past 0:02:17.840 --> 0:02:22.600 are everywhere well said there. But how much longer can 0:02:22.639 --> 0:02:28.560 the government afford to listen to these radical activists, especially 0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:33.080 with their increasingly divorced from reality climate targets. 0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:35.560 Well reder. 0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:38.680 This government is clearly more radical than the Whitlam government. 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:41.799 That's been the case now for a number of months. 0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:46.760 Anthony Abenezi ran as a sort of moderate centrist, sort 0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:49.920 of trying not to reveal his fairly radical past. But 0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:52.600 he's always been on the far left of the Labor Party. 0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:55.160 So those of us who have been watching politics for 0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:57.640 some time knew it was going to be the case 0:02:57.680 --> 0:03:00.480 that this would be a fairly radical government. You've had 0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:02.680 the Voice to Parliament, which was one of the most 0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:07.200 divisive proposals ever put to the Australian people and thankfully 0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:11.240 was rejected by sixty percent of Australians, including forty percent 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:15.280 of Labor voters. You rightly mention net zero and the 0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:20.359 climate targets. They've got a renewables only, renewables everywhere policy 0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:22.440 and that's why we're seeing prices go up and the 0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:25.560 prospect of blackouts. And then there's the whole social agenda 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:29.799 and the veering to the far left on the Hamas 0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:34.359 Palestine Israel situation. So look, I think the sheen has 0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:37.240 well and truly come off the Albernezi government as Australians 0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:40.880 learn more about just how divorced it is from the 0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:43.560 interests of concerns and values of mainstream Australia. 0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:50.520 Now, doesn't this sum up Victoria? The unions are running riot. 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:54.520 Their CFM and you are threatening to impose a work 0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:59.320 slowdown on all AFL related projects unless the AFL sacks 0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:03.400 it's head of umpiring. The Herald Sun reveals that AFL 0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:08.800 employee Stephen McBurnie used to be a building watchdog regulator 0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:12.360 and he initiated a bunch of legal action against this 0:04:12.520 --> 0:04:17.159 CFMEU that's resulted in millions of dollars of penalties against them. 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:22.400 And now they're essentially Daniel blackmailing the league to sack 0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:27.160 the head of umpiring or have their projects adversely effect there. 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:31.240 They're holding the Tasmanian Stadium to ransom, threatening work to 0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:35.320 rule campaigns, and they're not shy about doing this. The 0:04:35.440 --> 0:04:40.919 Victorian SFMU boss John Sedka told The Australian this is 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:44.120 going to cost the AFL a lot of efing money. 0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:47.880 I hope it's worth it. Projects without our full cooperation 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:52.200 are going to be efing misery for them. They will 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:56.400 regret the day they ever employed him. They just don't 0:04:56.480 --> 0:04:58.920 walk away from a role like that. This is the 0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:02.240 employee they're talking about. It costs the union millions of 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:06.120 dollars and just think they can walk away into the 0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:09.320 effing sunset. It doesn't work that way. This is the 0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:12.719 real world. We go after our enemies, and he was 0:05:12.760 --> 0:05:16.920 our number one enemy and we will pursue him until 0:05:17.120 --> 0:05:20.719 the ends of the earth. These are direct quotes from 0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:25.039 John Sedka. Welcome to Victoria. You know who's running the 0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:25.920 show down here. 0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:29.920 Dan, Well, that's right, I've got to say, reader, though, 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:31.920 it's hard to have sympathy for the AFL. I mean 0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:34.920 they've promoted every single left wing board under the sun, 0:05:35.320 --> 0:05:37.960 whether it's same sex marriage, whether it's the Voice to Parliament, 0:05:38.000 --> 0:05:40.480 whether it's climate change, whether it's Welcome to Country. 0:05:41.240 --> 0:05:41.960 It never ends. 0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:44.719 And the reality is it's not brought them the political 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:48.400 protection they thought it would. So you know they're the wokeus, 0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:50.680 most visitive sporting code in the nation. 0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:54.320 The Tasmanian Stadium. It was a. 0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:56.640 Political move, not a move for footy fans. It was 0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:58.839 a political move to cozy up to the government in 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:01.160 order to get money from it. So look, that's how 0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:03.360 the AFL operates. And I think this is really a 0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:07.760 test for the Victorian government, the Victorian state government, who 0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:11.080 clearly needs to intervene here and to set a clear 0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:13.480 demarcation that you can't you know, you just cut whatever 0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:16.000 you feelings are on the AFL. You can't just have 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:19.440 a union official bullying and essentially holding these major projects 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:20.000 to ransom. 0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:21.920 But I don't think the AFL have a lot. 0:06:21.800 --> 0:06:23.960 Of sympathy in the community because of what they've done 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.159 to divide Australians over the last five years. 0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:31.560 You are absolutely right. They have been at the head 0:06:31.600 --> 0:06:34.560 of all the sporting bodies when it comes to playing 0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:40.360 political games, these divisive political games, alienating half their fan base, 0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:44.560 and because the league, the sport is so enormously popular, 0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:48.240 they've largely got away with it. Now to a story 0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:50.560 we've been covering for some time when you and I've 0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:54.720 chatted about this, and the Age newspaper is now published 0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:58.920 data backing up precisely what we've been talking about, and 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:04.200 that's Victoria Labors war on property investors. The Age reveal 0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:07.599 the number of rental properties in Victoria has fallen by 0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:11.680 over ten thousand dad in just three months, and the 0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:16.280 past year nearly sixteen thousand rentals disappeared from the market. 0:07:16.840 --> 0:07:19.800 And it shouldn't be a shock when we look at 0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:24.040 the Labor government's war against mum and dad property investors. 0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:28.880 They've got increased land tax, they've got a bunch of 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:33.120 unreasonable minimum standards that are being imposed on them, and 0:07:33.160 --> 0:07:37.160 no wonder Mum and Dad investors are putting their hardened elsewhere. 0:07:37.640 --> 0:07:41.120 But Dan, I mean, this is just catastrophic for renters 0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:45.960 because the number of properties available for rental are diminishing 0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.080 and of course rents are going up. 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:52.640 Well that's right, reader, Look you've got two problems here. 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:56.720 You've got the accelerator has been pushed on demand with 0:07:56.800 --> 0:07:59.640 the mass migration program, which has been completely out of 0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:01.000 for two years now. 0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:02.320 It's been at record levels. 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:06.360 Our analysis showed that seventy percent of new builds last 0:08:06.440 --> 0:08:10.000 year were taken up by international students alone across Australia, 0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:12.720 not just in Victoria. And then at the same time, 0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:15.200 as you've identified, you've got the brakes being slammed on 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:18.120 the supply side. We know how's in construction is down 0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:20.760 at nineteen eighties levels, and you've got all of the 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:24.720 red tape the taxes that exist on constructing new houses 0:08:24.760 --> 0:08:28.200 in Victoria, but you know, just as importantly on those 0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:29.680 who want to invest in new properties. 0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:31.720 So you know, it's just basic supply and demand. 0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:34.000 If you push demand up and you bring supply down, 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:36.560 you're going to get shortages and you're going. 0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:37.400 To have price rises. 0:08:37.960 --> 0:08:40.480 That's exactly what's happened, and it feeds into the broader 0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:44.200 issue reta, which is that Victoria is Australia's economic basket 0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:46.400 case and this just reinforces that reality. 0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:52.800 Sadly, it's hard to argue against that because our debt 0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:57.160 is out of control and if the state government wasn't 0:08:57.280 --> 0:09:00.160 enough with their war on landlords. So you've got a 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:03.520 far left council in the north of Melbourne that, let's 0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:06.920 not forget, changed its name for Morland to mary Beck 0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:12.079 because there was once a Jamaican sugar plantation with slaves 0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:14.480 called Morland, so they had to change the name. This 0:09:14.640 --> 0:09:18.240 council is now considering a plan to double the council 0:09:18.400 --> 0:09:23.120 rates for landlords. I guess they really do hate renters 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:25.960 in mary Beck, Dan, because you're going to make it 0:09:26.160 --> 0:09:29.360 very difficult and expensive for anyone to rent a property 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:32.720 if you press ahead with this crazy policy. 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:36.800 Well, that's right, I mean, obviously it's just going to 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:38.199 make a bad situation worse. 0:09:38.280 --> 0:09:40.040 That's obvious. You know. 0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:41.959 I think you wrote about this council a couple of 0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:45.319 years ago when they were basically saying Australia they should 0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:47.680 be canceled, and they weren't going to celebrate it because 0:09:47.720 --> 0:09:50.120 it's a day of mourning and so forth. So this 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:53.559 is one of the wokest councils that you'll ever come across. 0:09:53.559 --> 0:09:56.480 And you know they're supposed to be in favor of renters, 0:09:56.559 --> 0:09:59.240 but like you identify, if you put the cost up 0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:04.720 constructing dwellings or of having people invest in property, then 0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:06.640 that's going to flow through. That's what we've seen across 0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:09.640 the state and across Australia. So look, I think it's 0:10:09.640 --> 0:10:11.800 just a matter of time before young people finally wake 0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:14.920 up to the reality that these councils and these left 0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:17.319 wing governments are not acting in the interest of young 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:18.400 Australians whatsoever. 0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:24.880 Now, last week Nigel Farage had a milkshake thrown on 0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:28.000 him in an assault some in the British media called 0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:32.559 a humbling moment some disgraceful reporting there. But now a 0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:36.559 man has been arrested after Farage was pelted with rocks 0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:55.280 on the campaign trail Let's have a look. 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:54.960 Now. 0:10:55.080 --> 0:10:58.920 Farrage said that the local police in the Yorkshire village 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:02.720 of Barnsley warned him not to walk through the town. 0:11:03.400 --> 0:11:07.679 But this is supposed to be Britain. Politicians should be 0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:10.960 able to campaign without the fear of being assaulted. 0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:14.319 Dat Well, that's right. 0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:16.320 I mean it's another example of the victim blaming that 0:11:16.360 --> 0:11:19.280 we've discussed. It's the job of the police to protect 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:22.240 people who want to safely walk through the community, especially 0:11:22.640 --> 0:11:24.440 politicians when you're leading up to an election. 0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:25.800 It's vital to a democracy. 0:11:26.720 --> 0:11:28.240 I think good on the police, though it looks like 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:30.920 they apprehended those individuals pretty quickly. 0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:31.240 There. 0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:34.280 Look, there's a broader thing here though, Riata, which is 0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:37.760 Nigel Farage has been one of these single most consequential 0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:42.000 figures in Western politics over the last decade. I mean, 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:44.360 if it wasn't for Nigel Farage, we wouldn't have had Brexit. 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:48.240 We've had basically fourteen years of Conservative government in name 0:11:48.320 --> 0:11:51.800 only in the UK. And I think regardless of how 0:11:51.800 --> 0:11:54.720 many seats Reform end up winning, if it's one or five, 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:56.440 or ten or twenty, I don't know what it will be. 0:11:56.920 --> 0:12:00.200 But Nigel Farage a change debate. You know, he's need 0:12:00.240 --> 0:12:03.880 more attention, more publicity than the Conservatives. He's offering a 0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:06.520 different vision saying, look, you have to reduce migration. You've 0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:08.080 got to fix the culture, You've got to fix the 0:12:08.080 --> 0:12:12.720 broken political system. So look, here's a force like one 0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:14.720 we haven't seen for many years. And I think we 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:18.560 need more political leaders like Nigel Farage that will make 0:12:18.600 --> 0:12:21.320 a debate, you know, and speak up for people that 0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:22.600 don't have a voice in politics. 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:28.800 You're absolutely right about the Tories being a conservative in 0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:32.000 name only, and I think they've lost so much trust 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:34.920 with their voters. They won in a landslide, but they 0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:38.800 governed like there were labor lighte and I think Farage 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:42.319 is going to change that landscape again. And it's interesting 0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:44.880 we've got the UK about to veer to the hard 0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:48.640 left with a labor landslide at a time where most 0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:51.200 of Europe is going to the right, as we saw 0:12:51.240 --> 0:12:54.800 with the recent EU elections. So it's a fascinating time. 0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:55.920 Now. 0:12:56.120 --> 0:13:00.480 News of the Victorian government appointing a parliamentary section terry 0:13:00.559 --> 0:13:04.920 for Men's behavioral change, how Willian Well. It's been moked 0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:08.840 far and wide, including by one of our faith comics, 0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:10.560 Ryan Long. Let's have a look. 0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:15.640 Australia is officially appointed a Minister of Men's Behavior Change 0:13:15.640 --> 0:13:17.040 and he looks like a pretty cool guy who I 0:13:17.040 --> 0:13:20.120 would imagine is swimming in tons of However, because this 0:13:20.160 --> 0:13:22.600 guy is such a chat, it appears the Australian government 0:13:22.640 --> 0:13:25.839 has forgot to appoint a Minister of Women's Behavior Change, 0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:29.559 and so I will be officially appointing myself, Ryan Long 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:32.000 to that position. I will be coming to Australia with 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.960 my aggressive proposal to assist Australian ladies and improving their behavior, 0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:38.040 which will include no more saying you weren't hungry and 0:13:38.080 --> 0:13:40.160 then eating off your boyfriend's plate. If you wanted that meal, 0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:41.160 you should have got that meal. 0:13:41.200 --> 0:13:41.880 This isn't about no. 0:13:42.080 --> 0:13:44.199 Saying they aren't like other girls than being exactly like 0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:46.200 other girls. No more posting every moment of your life 0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:48.360 on social media. You get one post to showcase what 0:13:48.400 --> 0:13:49.720 you're doing a month, and the rest of the time 0:13:49.720 --> 0:13:51.040 you're just gonna have to live your life. And no 0:13:51.120 --> 0:13:52.880 more asking dudes to take the photos I have. No 0:13:52.960 --> 0:13:55.079 more fist fighting with your wife, and that one obviously 0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:57.000 only pertains. The less stories about work will now be 0:13:57.080 --> 0:13:59.480 limited to one minute, with the stated premise to be 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:01.040 delivered with in the first thirty second. 0:14:01.080 --> 0:14:02.120 No more shop left. 0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:04.080 Talking behind each other's backs, then pretending to be friends 0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:06.480 in public will be var only fans. Jecks will only 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:08.400 be allowed to scam the scene man out of money 0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:09.760 once you already got his money. 0:14:09.920 --> 0:14:10.560 Keep it moving. 0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:13.079 No more turning this sucker into a well. Now more 0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:15.520 poisoning your husband. Women will only be allowed one day 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:17.599 a month to have their periods. Now, whatever changes you 0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:19.640 got to meet to have that happened before I get there, 0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:20.960 I recommend you start now. 0:14:22.840 --> 0:14:26.480 He's besmirched all of Australia with that policy. There is 0:14:26.560 --> 0:14:30.120 only just Victoria. But in the interest of equality, will 0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:34.920 we eventually get a Parliamentary Secretary for Women's Behavior change 0:14:35.000 --> 0:14:37.960 DAN to battle toxic femininity? 0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:43.000 Perhaps I would be holding my breath reader for that 0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:45.240 to happen. And look, I mean, there's so many things 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:47.400 you can say about this, but what I would say 0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:50.760 is it's just another example of the divisiveness of the 0:14:50.880 --> 0:14:53.880 Victorian government. That's been a theme of this government. Whether 0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:55.880 it was in COVID, there was two sets of rules. 0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:58.120 If you were a Black Lives Matter protester, you could 0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:00.400 go out there and protest. If you were someone that 0:15:00.440 --> 0:15:03.640 didn't want lockdowns, you were arrested. Whether it's to do 0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:07.200 with the voice and the treaty process of dividing Victorians, 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:10.400 the way they treated small business owners and workers as 0:15:10.400 --> 0:15:13.160 compared to big business and public servants. This is just 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:16.880 another example a long line of very divisive policies in 0:15:16.960 --> 0:15:20.840 a very divisive attitude of the Victorian government. And I 0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:22.680 just think most people these days have just had a 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:26.600 gutful of these sort of gestures where they don't really 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:29.000 understand why someone's getting so much money to take on 0:15:29.280 --> 0:15:33.000 what is clearly a divisive, tokenistic role. So look, I 0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:35.840 think most people will hopefully see through this. 0:15:38.040 --> 0:15:40.120 Dan Wild, thank you so much for your time this evening. 0:15:41.200 --> 0:15:45.960 Let's bring in Sky News contributor Gary Hardgrave. Gary. Queensland's 0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:50.320 labor government is facing a massive budget black hole as 0:15:50.360 --> 0:15:53.240 their war on coal comes back to bite them. For 0:15:53.280 --> 0:15:57.360 the past two years, their controversial royalty is hike brought 0:15:57.440 --> 0:16:01.400 in twenty five billion from coal. The latest state budget 0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:05.040 reveals this will shrink to five billion a year by 0:16:05.160 --> 0:16:09.240 mid twenty twenty eight. So what's going to happen Our 0:16:09.280 --> 0:16:13.320 taxpayer is being expected to fill that massive gap, or 0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:17.000 is the government they're going to wake up and realize 0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:21.600 they can't walk away from coal because it's keeping them afloat. 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:26.720 Yeah, the real answer for Queensland is to borrow the 0:16:26.720 --> 0:16:28.160 phrase from Donald Trump. 0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:30.720 Drill baby, drill, dig baby, dig, because. 0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:33.120 That's where the money comes from when it comes to 0:16:33.200 --> 0:16:36.720 Queensland's budget. But look, let's face it, this is a 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:38.360 government that's lost its way. 0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:39.640 It is the walking dead. 0:16:40.240 --> 0:16:42.680 They can't wait till the twenty fourth of October because 0:16:42.720 --> 0:16:45.480 all of the traps that they've set for an incoming 0:16:45.560 --> 0:16:49.560 Chryso Furley government are already in place, so they have 0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:52.360 sabotage the next four or five or six years of 0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:54.120 Queensland economic life. 0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:56.120 Frankly, and until we. 0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:59.280 Get some certainty back into the system, you're not going 0:16:59.360 --> 0:17:01.640 to get the investment that we need. Because we've actually 0:17:01.640 --> 0:17:03.960 do in all seriousness, have to start new coal mines. 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:05.120 We actually have to use. 0:17:05.200 --> 0:17:08.879 More coal to burn in our power stations to create 0:17:08.960 --> 0:17:11.879 cheaper electricity for other industries. And we used to have 0:17:11.960 --> 0:17:14.800 the cheapest electricity in the world. 0:17:15.200 --> 0:17:17.920 Sheer in Queensland. We had so much of it. 0:17:17.920 --> 0:17:20.600 It was just everywhere that back in the day of 0:17:20.760 --> 0:17:23.439 Jobioki Peterson. You know, I have a few issues with 0:17:23.560 --> 0:17:25.919 Joe who didn't But let me tell you, back in 0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:28.640 those days. There was so much electricity they're inventing new 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:31.399 ways to use it. They put in an electrified railway 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:34.439 line six hundred miles north of Brisbane to Rock Captain. 0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:37.160 They gave everybody money to go and buy those dreadful 0:17:37.240 --> 0:17:39.760 box like air conditions to hang out of their loungery 0:17:39.760 --> 0:17:42.880 and windows. Please use their electricity. We've got so much 0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:45.439 of it and it was so cheap. So we've got 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:47.880 to get ourselves back to that Queensland. I think if 0:17:47.880 --> 0:17:51.760 we can reverse some of this renewable nonsense d Queensland 0:17:51.760 --> 0:17:54.480 will be the premier state, it'll be the powerhouse state, 0:17:54.560 --> 0:17:57.000 it'll be the state that's driving the whole of Australia. 0:17:57.040 --> 0:17:59.960 But under this mob, they've put up the white flow. 0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:02.920 They want to follow the internationalists, the wo green agenda 0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:05.840 that the world is turning away from. But that seems 0:18:05.840 --> 0:18:08.320 to be the only inspiration you've got for this current 0:18:08.440 --> 0:18:10.080 walking dead Queensland government. 0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:15.000 But you've got the Libs who've signed up to these 0:18:15.280 --> 0:18:20.600 Bolder Mission targets that the Queensland government wants to run with. 0:18:20.840 --> 0:18:23.359 So I do really hope there's a one eighty turn 0:18:24.040 --> 0:18:26.000 there at some point, because if they're going to be 0:18:26.040 --> 0:18:28.800 implementing similar policies. We're not going to be in a 0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:32.439 much better position. Elsewhere in the budget there is a 0:18:32.480 --> 0:18:36.000 promise to pump nearly thirty billion into the health system 0:18:36.160 --> 0:18:40.200 as it struggles with some of the worst hospital overcrowding 0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:45.160 and ambulance ramping times in the country. But again, where 0:18:45.240 --> 0:18:46.800 is this money coming from? 0:18:46.880 --> 0:18:51.440 Gary from borrowing? So we're just going to debt. 0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:53.880 We'll go further into debt and the taxpayer will wear 0:18:53.920 --> 0:18:57.080 it with increased charges. Victoria this other little one fifty 0:18:57.119 --> 0:19:01.560 two exactly know, I use it joke that Anastasia Palise 0:19:01.840 --> 0:19:05.119 Cook could be renamed Danastasia because she was taking all 0:19:05.160 --> 0:19:10.679 of her inspiration from Daniel andrews ACAKKBG whatever he is. 0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:14.000 I don't know whatever in particular a gong he's got. 0:19:14.040 --> 0:19:19.119 But you know here again, in all seriousness, there is 0:19:19.160 --> 0:19:22.400 a complete lack of proper planning for the future. We 0:19:22.440 --> 0:19:25.160 need more hospitals, We actually need four hundred more schools 0:19:25.400 --> 0:19:26.520 in Queensland, and no one. 0:19:26.480 --> 0:19:27.640 Knows where they're going to go. 0:19:27.720 --> 0:19:31.359 But a little gem fifty two point five million dollars 0:19:31.400 --> 0:19:33.600 being spent over the next four years to increase the 0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:38.120 number of staff for members of Parliament. The last thing 0:19:38.160 --> 0:19:40.679 we need is more members of Parliament. The last thing 0:19:40.720 --> 0:19:42.640 we need are more staffers. I mean, if you think 0:19:42.680 --> 0:19:46.200 the current crop of MPs all around our parliaments are bad, 0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:48.280 wait till you see their staff and they. 0:19:48.160 --> 0:19:50.560 All want the job somewhere down the track. 0:19:50.640 --> 0:19:54.120 So money is getting wasted and thirty billion into health, 0:19:54.160 --> 0:19:56.679 well they'll spend at least ten or fifteen billion on 0:19:56.760 --> 0:20:00.000 clipboard carriers going around checking who's actually doing the work 0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:01.200 got any given day. 0:20:01.200 --> 0:20:02.720 This is not a good plan. 0:20:02.880 --> 0:20:07.960 Well again that is the Victorian model. Again, that's just 0:20:08.520 --> 0:20:11.400 have a lot of bureaucrats, have a lot of public 0:20:11.520 --> 0:20:14.200 servants who are going to vote for labor and make 0:20:14.240 --> 0:20:16.040 sure you get re elected. 0:20:16.720 --> 0:20:16.880 Now. 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:22.119 Today, Treasurer and Jim Charmers said that Australia's economy is 0:20:22.240 --> 0:20:26.600 on track for a soft landing that will see inflation 0:20:27.160 --> 0:20:31.160 back under control. It's currently just about the RBA's target 0:20:31.280 --> 0:20:35.560 of three point six percent. But I've got to say, Gary, 0:20:36.359 --> 0:20:39.320 I was in the supermarket yesterday and I'm sure I'm 0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:43.240 not alone in observing this. You would not think our 0:20:43.280 --> 0:20:47.000 inflation rate is anywhere around the four percent mark. If 0:20:47.040 --> 0:20:51.040 you look at things like grocery prices. They have increased 0:20:51.240 --> 0:20:56.200 considerably cost of living pressures from other things that aren't 0:20:56.800 --> 0:20:59.439 included in the basket of goods that we used to 0:20:59.520 --> 0:21:04.639 measure in inflation. I just wonder how divorce from reality 0:21:04.680 --> 0:21:07.399 that inflation figure is, because you only need to do 0:21:07.440 --> 0:21:10.960 the weekly shop to say how much more it's costing 0:21:11.480 --> 0:21:13.640 than a year ago and two years ago. 0:21:16.640 --> 0:21:19.160 Well, I think people are far worse off than they 0:21:19.160 --> 0:21:21.200 were a year ago than they were two years ago 0:21:21.240 --> 0:21:23.199 and three years ago. People get it, and they do 0:21:23.280 --> 0:21:27.080 see it, and people are denying themselves access to basic 0:21:27.160 --> 0:21:29.760 things or things they thought were basic, and the basket 0:21:29.760 --> 0:21:32.560 of goods, I think, is getting incredibly small reader and 0:21:32.960 --> 0:21:35.480 for a lot of people, the costs are cruling them. 0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:38.160 They're hurting them, they're panicking them. And they can give 0:21:38.200 --> 0:21:40.600 out subsidies, as they're apparently going to do after the 0:21:40.640 --> 0:21:44.359 first of July for power prices, but until we actually 0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:47.679 drop the price of electricity, which is cheap and reliable, 0:21:47.680 --> 0:21:50.400 that's what we need, cheap and reliable power in this country, 0:21:50.440 --> 0:21:51.439 everything is just going to. 0:21:51.480 --> 0:21:52.879 Keep going up. 0:21:53.000 --> 0:21:55.879 And when he talks about soft landing, the point is 0:21:56.119 --> 0:21:56.840 it's a landing. 0:21:56.960 --> 0:21:59.959 Things have got to go down before things can settle. 0:22:00.119 --> 0:22:03.640
