WEBVTT - The Rita Panahi Show | 16 June 0:00:02.840 --> 0:00:07.280 On Skye Leeds, Australia. This is the Wider Panalty Show. 0:00:08.960 --> 0:00:11.560 Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panehy Show. Coming 0:00:11.640 --> 0:00:15.440 up tonight, Australia's relationship with Israel. I'm the furthest strain 0:00:16.000 --> 0:00:19.759 after Penny Wong's ill advised commentary on the conflict with Iran, 0:00:20.320 --> 0:00:24.040 the war's impact on oil prices already being felt. Professor 0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:27.160 Ian Plymer will weigh in on that issue, and Army 0:00:27.240 --> 0:00:29.960 Horowitz will join me with the latest from the US, 0:00:30.080 --> 0:00:35.000 including the democracy denying no King's protests, and later in 0:00:35.000 --> 0:00:37.960 the hour we'll have the latest celebrity and royal news, 0:00:38.000 --> 0:00:41.120 including the famous singer who took a stand against the 0:00:41.240 --> 0:00:45.720 anti Trump protesters and left. He's losing. It is a 0:00:45.760 --> 0:00:49.080 little extra unhinged today thanks to the likes of Hollywood 0:00:49.120 --> 0:00:50.840 clown Mark Ruffalo. 0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:55.200 Lads Putin and Nat Yahoo and King Jong on of 0:00:55.320 --> 0:00:56.880 the world. 0:00:57.840 --> 0:01:02.480 But first, Australia's relationship with Israel has deteriorated further after 0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:07.200 Foreign Mister Penniwong advised Israel to de escalate. Here she 0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:08.400 is on the ABC. 0:01:08.800 --> 0:01:13.560 We urge de escalation, we urge restraint, we urge dialogue 0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:16.880 and diplomacy. What we have to do now is to 0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:19.839 de escalate and exercise restraint, and we have to return 0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:20.920 to dialogue now. 0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:25.400 In the ours following that statement, while not naming Pennywong specifically, 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:29.400 Israel's ambassador to Australia issued a statement of his own, 0:01:29.920 --> 0:01:34.679 rubbishing cause for dialogue, Ammaymon wrote, History has shown what 0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:39.360 happens when the world ignores regimes that preach hatred, promise annihilation, 0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:42.480 and are left to build the means to carry it out. 0:01:42.880 --> 0:01:46.920 Iran isn't hiding its intent, it declares it, and it's 0:01:46.959 --> 0:01:50.600 building the weapons to fulfill it. He added, Yet some 0:01:50.920 --> 0:01:55.280 still urge diplomacy as if words can stop warheads. We 0:01:55.360 --> 0:01:59.200 have a duty to act to protect our people. Joining 0:01:59.240 --> 0:02:01.360 me now for more on this. As senior fellow and 0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:04.320 chief Economists of the Institute of Public Affairs, Adam Criight 0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:07.680 and Adam, I don't understand why Penny Wong feels the 0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:11.799 need to pour salt into these wounds. We've already got 0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:15.920 a strained relationship with Israel, we have a strained relationship 0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:19.280 with America, and we're on the verge of the Prime 0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:21.200 minister meeting with President Trump. 0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:23.320 Yeah. Look, I mean, I think firstly, it's funny. 0:02:23.320 --> 0:02:26.519 I think what Australia urges things cover about politics on 0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:27.560 the other side of the world. 0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:29.160 I mean, I did read someone that she was trying. 0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:30.960 To get a phone call with the Iranian fram just 0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:32.799 to do I mean, I'm sure, I'm sure he really 0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:33.680 wants to take that call. 0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:34.800 But yeah, look, I. 0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:37.119 Mean I think the well, I can perfectly understand why 0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:39.440 the Israeli ambassador is quite upset with Australia. I mean, 0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:41.400 you know, we are meant to be close friends with Israel, 0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:44.440 and you know, you can't really both sides this conflict. 0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:46.079 I mean, as you pointed out just then, I mean, 0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:48.400 Iran has been saying for decades that it wants to 0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:52.359 destroy Israel completely, and it was very close, as we've 0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:54.040 you know, as we've heard not just from Israel itself, 0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:57.640 mind you, but from the International Atomic Energy Agency, it 0:02:57.720 --> 0:02:59.960 was very close to getting a nuclear bomb. So you know, 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.240 you put those two facts together and you can completely 0:03:02.320 --> 0:03:05.200 understand why Israel has lashed out right and absolutely, you know, 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:06.560 I mean we would have done the same thing. 0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:08.680 I think in similar circumstances any country would. 0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:12.480 And so I think this language that kind of sees 0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:14.680 both of the countries equal is just not satisfaction. 0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:18.079 And our most important ally, the one we've also got 0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:23.239 a growing strange relationship with America, has been quite clear 0:03:23.320 --> 0:03:27.920 in standing with Israel in improving of this action. So 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:31.480 again we've come out against. It's just a very. 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:34.519 At the same time, the orchest Review is happening. 0:03:34.360 --> 0:03:36.280 At the same time as the Orchestra Review on the 0:03:36.400 --> 0:03:39.320 verge of the Prime Minister meeting with President Trump to 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:43.840 talk about tariffs and trade and Aucus, why would you 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:49.240 create further angst unnecessarily when you're achieving nothing. No one 0:03:49.280 --> 0:03:51.800 in Israel, no one in Iran cares what money Wong 0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:52.640 says exactly. 0:03:52.760 --> 0:03:56.440 So this is just after we censored those two Israeli 0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:59.000 ministers too, which was complete virtue signaling. I mean, they 0:03:59.000 --> 0:04:01.160 weren't coming here anyway. No, You're putting a travel ban 0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:02.320 on them. Is completely ridiculous. 0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:03.080 And look, you know. 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:06.920 Marco Rubio put out a statement condemning the action. I 0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:11.880 mean to have the Secretary of State condemning Australia's actions again, 0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:15.000 not a great position for Australia when we need America 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:17.920 to assist us, and they've also asked us to increase 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:20.640 our defense spending and we've said no, thank you. So 0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:24.039 it's going to be very interesting to see how this 0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:25.960 meeting with Donald Trump is going. 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:26.720 Meeting. 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:28.080 I think it's going to be very short. 0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:30.760 Apparently on the sidelines, it's not eight minutes of that 0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:33.520 eight minutes will be hello and you know, shaking hands, 0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:36.000 et cetera. So I mean, if I was elbow, I'd 0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:37.960 be quite stressed out about this meeting. But as you say, 0:04:37.960 --> 0:04:39.040 the backdrop's not good. 0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:41.440 No, and there is a lot on the line for 0:04:41.480 --> 0:04:45.039 the country, Adam. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade 0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:49.160 has been criticized for its poor efforts in supporting stranded 0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:55.440 Australians in Israel. Some have labeled defacts communication shambolic after 0:04:55.480 --> 0:05:01.279 an evacuation email was sent out which contained an incorrect link. Adam, 0:05:01.320 --> 0:05:04.200 It's it's a worrying time for Australians stranded in the 0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:07.000 region and their families back home. The last thing you 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:11.000 need is emails from DFAT with links that don't work. 0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:11.320 Yeah. 0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:12.679 Look, it's one of the largest apartments. 0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:14.600 I understanding camera, you know when you include all the 0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:16.600 staff around the world, so you would think that they 0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:17.440 could get that right. 0:05:18.080 --> 0:05:20.760 But yeah, it's actually surprised me, to be honest, that 0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:22.919 there were so many strainers there in the first place. 0:05:22.920 --> 0:05:24.600 I don't know what was going on with advisories there. 0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:25.360 I've got friends there. 0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:28.360 You've got friends there who've been in bunkers, and they 0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:31.159 were there during a pretty volatile, dangerous time. So let's 0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:34.160 hope everything's fine, but let's also hope that they can 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:35.919 get out quickly this it has been a fiasco. 0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:38.640 Now we will have more on the impact of this 0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:42.880 conflict on energy markets with Professor im Plymer. But Israel's 0:05:42.960 --> 0:05:46.800 now set its sites beyond Iran's nuclear facilities by launching 0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:50.200 attacks on major gas and oil sites, including some of 0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:54.480 the largest in the world. Meanwhile, the reports that Israel 0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:57.920 had communicated to Donald Trump a plan to kill Iran's 0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:02.960 supreme leader, Aotola Ali Komane, which the US President oppose, 0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:07.560 leading to the plan not being executed. Adam Donald Trump 0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:11.120 does not want the US heavily involved in this conflict. 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:16.080 He clearly stands with Israel. He condones what's happening, but 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:21.599 he knows his supporters, a sizeable number of them, do 0:06:21.720 --> 0:06:24.360 not want to America involved in another war. 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:24.560 No. 0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:26.840 Look, it's a very difficult needle to thread for him 0:06:26.839 --> 0:06:30.040 at the moment, because he certainly does support Israel. 0:06:30.080 --> 0:06:30.839 That is very clear. 0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:32.800 But as you point out, I would say probably more 0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:35.800 than half of the Trump base are very anti war. 0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:38.240 There's the old Reagan Bush side, but that's probably about 0:06:38.240 --> 0:06:39.040 a third of the party. 0:06:39.080 --> 0:06:42.560 Now, I would say, yeah, the warhawks power and influence 0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:43.479 is diminishing. 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:45.480 Well, it's much greater in mainstream media than it is 0:06:45.480 --> 0:06:46.799 amongst the ordinary supporters. 0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:49.000 They are really anti war, and I can understand why. 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:50.520 There's been a lot of wars, you know, in the 0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:52.599 last twenty years or so America's been involved in which 0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:53.320 have not gone well. 0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:57.200 So let's just see what happens. I mean, I think Israel. 0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:59.479 I mean, you know, I'm no military expert, but certainly 0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:02.839 Israel as what they call escalatory dominance. 0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:04.520 Basically it's going to win. 0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:06.960 And that's even without the US, I think, because ultimately 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:09.120 it's got more missiles, has got more planes, and of 0:07:09.120 --> 0:07:11.880 course it probably has nuclear weapons too, which Iron knows 0:07:12.160 --> 0:07:14.440 and in a very extreme case, you know, that's a 0:07:14.440 --> 0:07:15.000 major threat. 0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:19.280 Absolutely, and it's going to also be fascinating to see 0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:24.720 whether they stop at Iran not being able to create 0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:27.720 or develop a nuclear weapon, or whether they're going to 0:07:27.760 --> 0:07:30.320 push ahead for regime change, because well. 0:07:30.160 --> 0:07:33.160 That's the best outcome, right, but it has to happen organically, right, 0:07:33.760 --> 0:07:35.480 the ragime has to collapse right of its owner. 0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:37.320 Course, that would be the wonderful outcome. 0:07:37.080 --> 0:07:39.880 And that would have to be led by the Iranian people. 0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:44.440 And on that Elon Musk's Starling satellite internet service is 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:48.720 now active in Iran. Elon Musk made that happen after 0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:54.600 the Iranian regime imposed nationwide internet restrictions. Adam hugely important 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:59.000 for the Iranian people. You cannot have a revolution, you 0:07:59.040 --> 0:08:04.080 cannot overthrow that regime with internet being cut throughout the country. 0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:06.480 So this is really a way from the Iranian people 0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:12.440 to stay connected and perhaps have a shot at having 0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:15.840 nationwide protests. But as we have seen in the past, 0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:19.880 the Iranian regime is absolutely brutal in it is brutal 0:08:20.320 --> 0:08:24.640 in clamping down on those protests. Well, it just to 0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:25.400 see that happen. 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:27.360 Well, look, I mean I hope so I just checked 0:08:27.400 --> 0:08:28.320 before I came on the show. 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:32.040 But GDP per person has gone by, it has fallen 0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:34.560 by fifty percent there in just ten years in Iran. 0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:36.160 So I mean, how could it be a popular regime, 0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:36.960 it must be hated. 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:39.480 I mean, it's a very poor country, and yet it 0:08:39.480 --> 0:08:41.760 should be very rich. I mean it's huge, it's got 0:08:41.840 --> 0:08:45.360 ninety million people, it's filled with resources, it's got beautiful mountains, rivers. 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:48.439 You know, there's no reason why it should be so poor. 0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:51.280 So let's hope that they can use starlink to coordinate. 0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:53.000 And just on Elon Musk, I mean, he's a bit 0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:55.319 of a hero here. Really, he's criticized for this and that, but. 0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:58.680 Looks, you know, he's he's turned on these beans, probably 0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:02.160 at great cost to himself. And who knows, maybe it 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:03.960 will work, maybe it will see the end of the regiame. 0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:07.800 Well, what can only hope. So but we have seen 0:09:07.840 --> 0:09:10.880 some footage come out of Iran which is incredible to 0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:16.360 see the Uranian people celebrating the attacks against the regime, 0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:20.679 even though obviously innocent people have died in these attacks. 0:09:21.360 --> 0:09:23.600 They want to see the end of the Muller's rain. 0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:26.240 They've been in power now of what more than forty 0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:29.960 five years. Now, Let's turn our attention to Victoria, a 0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:32.160 one hundred million dollar fund that was set up by 0:09:32.160 --> 0:09:34.760 the City of Melbourne seven years ago to help East 0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:38.800 traffic jams when thousands of extra cars pour into Melbourne 0:09:38.800 --> 0:09:42.360 from the new Westgate tunnel. Well, that money has barely 0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:46.240 been spent. And what they have spent spent, Adam, they 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:51.480 have spent on bike lanes. Yes, not road capacity upgrades 0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:55.800 as we expected, but more bike lanes and nobody uses. 0:09:55.720 --> 0:10:00.000 Just it's pretty outragious. That's a deliction of duty. 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:01.760 It's one of the fundamental things of state government to 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:03.559 get the right you know, to get public transport working 0:10:03.559 --> 0:10:04.120 and effective. 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:05.880 And also this is a state that has something like 0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:06.720 one hundred and. 0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:08.840 Sixty billion dollars of debt, so the roads should be 0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:11.679 paved with gold, not filled with potholes. 0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:15.440 There are a lot of potholes. Anyone who has driven 0:10:15.480 --> 0:10:19.280 in Victoria in recent years would tell you about the 0:10:19.320 --> 0:10:22.360 condition of our roads. And I think it's that massive 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:27.520 debt you mentioned that has really put a spanner in 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:30.440 the works. They can't afford to fix. They're spending a 0:10:30.480 --> 0:10:32.440 fraction of the money they should be on roads. 0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:34.920 And you know, there's a separate story around recently two 0:10:34.920 --> 0:10:37.800 about Victorian roads that they're spending the same amount, the 0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:39.560 same amount of money trying to fix them, but the 0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:41.839 amount of roads that are actually being fixed has fallen 0:10:41.840 --> 0:10:45.560 by sixty six percent. And that's because construction costs in 0:10:45.600 --> 0:10:47.960 the unionized workforce have just gone through the roof. 0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:49.520 Totally unacceptable. 0:10:49.559 --> 0:10:51.480 I mean even Rod Simmons himself said years ago that 0:10:51.480 --> 0:10:54.360 construction costs in Victoria were roughly thirty percent more than 0:10:54.400 --> 0:10:54.840 they should be. 0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:57.600 So this is all the feather betting of the union workforce. 0:10:58.000 --> 0:11:00.560 Yeah, only people who are happy in this state the moment, 0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:03.360 the union, Adam christ and thank you so much for 0:11:03.400 --> 0:11:06.360 your time tonight. Now we've already started to see the 0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:10.280 impact of the Israel Iran war on oil prices. They 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:13.640 jumped around three percent of the weekend after Israeli drones 0:11:13.679 --> 0:11:17.000 struck the South Pass gas field in southern Iran, one 0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:20.360 of the largest natural gas fields in the world, as 0:11:20.360 --> 0:11:24.000 well as two natural gas processing facilities, according to Iranian 0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:28.960 state media. Meanwhile, Iranian missiles damaged a major oil refinery 0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:32.760 in Haifa. Joining me now is a steam geologist and author, 0:11:32.800 --> 0:11:37.200 Professor Ian Plymer in what impact will a prolonged war 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:40.600 with Iran have on oil prices and will we feel 0:11:40.600 --> 0:11:41.600 it domestically here? 0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:46.680 We're now producing oil from different places. A lot of 0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:49.480 it is coming from fracking in the US. In terms 0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:52.840 of gas, it's Qatar, Australia and the US the big 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:57.320 gas producers. Iran's much smaller in terms of oil. 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:00.280 Well, if the Straights. 0:12:00.040 --> 0:12:04.000 Of Whom was a shut, then China doesn't get oil. 0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:08.200 Our oil comes from many other places, so it might 0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:10.640 push up the price, and the price has been relatively 0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:13.160 low for quite a while. It might push it up 0:12:13.200 --> 0:12:16.720 to more historical levels. So at this stage we're not 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:20.280 seeing too much of an effect. At this stage, the 0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:23.120 gas producers like the US and Australia and Katara will 0:12:23.120 --> 0:12:23.880 benefit from it. 0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:29.440 Well, could we be a gas producing superpower? We have 0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:32.880 plenty of the stuff, we don't do the exploration perhaps, 0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:37.720 but is that an opportunity for Australia to really take 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:39.720 advantage of those natural resources. 0:12:40.120 --> 0:12:43.160 Oh, we could easily be a superpower for guess. The 0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:46.720 problem is that we have governments that aren't superpowers. They're 0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:50.160 not very smart and in this state Victoria, they have 0:12:50.520 --> 0:12:55.000 really stuffed it up. Queensland's a bit better. But we 0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:59.360 need decent government and decent regulations and we could easily 0:12:59.400 --> 0:13:02.640 become a guest superpower. It takes time. It takes time. 0:13:02.679 --> 0:13:05.559 From getting a tenement, to drilling the wells, to getting 0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:09.560 the compression stations, to getting the pipelines. That takes time, 0:13:10.000 --> 0:13:12.200 and that will be the case in Iran because it 0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:14.559 will take a long time to repair the damage. 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:19.120 Yes, Victoria in particular, given the perilous financial state we 0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:24.000 have in this state, with the biggest debt in the country, 0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:27.600 we could well do with some gas exports and the 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:30.880 royalties that would come. Now. I don't know if Chris 0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:33.560 Bowen is a fan of that. Let's check in with 0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:37.040 everyone's favorite energy minister. He's not only a fan of 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:40.880 green energy, he also loves promoting free money. Here is 0:13:40.960 --> 0:13:45.240 talking about the government's plan to force taxpayers to cover 0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:46.320 students hextet. 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:49.720 You probably also noticed that your hextet was indexed on 0:13:49.800 --> 0:13:52.360 the first a duty. Here's what you need to know. 0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:53.640 Don't worry about. 0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:56.599 It because we had a federal election. Parliament w's it 0:13:56.760 --> 0:14:00.200 until July. But when parliament's h's our first law that 0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:02.840 will pass through Parliament will be to cut hex debt 0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:04.000 by twenty percent. 0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:07.320 He goes on to talk about how those cuts are 0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:11.200 going to be backdated. It's all just magical free money 0:14:11.280 --> 0:14:16.599 that just appears happy days well, his market. 0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:20.360 In that little clip on social media are young people. 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:23.000 And these young people have got to realize that the 0:14:23.000 --> 0:14:27.120 free money today that they're getting, they'll pay for tomorrow 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:32.320 with spade on it. And it also creates a massive injustice. 0:14:32.560 --> 0:14:35.640 Some people have done the right thing, paid back the 0:14:35.680 --> 0:14:39.480 hex's debt, worked the guts out to do that, and 0:14:39.520 --> 0:14:42.560 then all of a sudden, others who don't do that 0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:47.680 are getting free money. So it's blatantly unfair. It's going 0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:52.200 to come and bite people because people who are young 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:56.840 love the free money idea. Who pays, they'll ultimately pay. 0:14:57.240 --> 0:15:02.640 And this is ex straight from the Biden Kamala Harris' playbook. 0:15:02.720 --> 0:15:05.000 This is the sort of nonsense they ran with and 0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:08.680 part of the reason why they lost. But Labor, sadly 0:15:08.920 --> 0:15:11.240 we don't have an opposition that really took it up 0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:14.240 to them at the last election. Now let's talk about 0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:18.720 Twiggy Forests. Billionaire Tiggy Forest. Here's a green energy advocate, 0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:23.320 and he wants taxpayers to fund increased compensation for those 0:15:23.320 --> 0:15:27.600 who live within ten kilometers of wind farms in is 0:15:27.600 --> 0:15:30.720 this a sound proposal? We keep hearing about how unpopular 0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:37.000 these wind farms are how they're devastating regional communities. Is 0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:38.960 taxpayers money the solution to. 0:15:38.960 --> 0:15:39.920 That, Well, it's not. 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:44.280 And this is an acknowledgment that the wind turbines damage people. 0:15:44.800 --> 0:15:47.640 The wind turbines are blight on the horizon, the wind 0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:51.920 turbines pollute the ground. It will be far better to 0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:56.200 actually have a reliable energy system, which we once had 0:15:56.600 --> 0:15:59.360 and it was cheap, and that was cole. You can't 0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:02.040 guarantee the wind's going to blow all the time. We 0:16:02.160 --> 0:16:05.120 have these wind roughts and you just don't get energy. 0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:07.800 So it's not the sort of energy we need for 0:16:07.840 --> 0:16:11.720 an industrial power. We need energy density, which you get 0:16:11.720 --> 0:16:14.040 from uranium, you get it from coal, you get it 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:16.520 from oil, and we need to have a twenty four 0:16:16.520 --> 0:16:19.200 to seven and we need a huge amount of energy 0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:22.640 if we're going to foster AI centers, if we're going 0:16:22.680 --> 0:16:25.120 to have data centers, we need much more energy than 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:25.760 we've got now. 0:16:26.680 --> 0:16:29.880 And before you go, also on two years, join the 0:16:30.120 --> 0:16:35.400 likes of Blake Lively, Demi Moore, Serena Williams, former gymnast 0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:39.320 Simone Biles. They're all on Times one hundred most Influential 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:42.160 People list. I didn't realize he'd made the list in 0:16:43.160 --> 0:16:45.760 he's the only Australian to make the cut, and the 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:50.440 magazine claims that's because of his determination to show cutting 0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:54.280 emissions and profits can go hand in hand. Andrew is 0:16:54.320 --> 0:16:58.360 the kind of pioneering business leader the world needs today. 0:16:59.200 --> 0:16:59.880 Is that right? 0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:03.240 Can cutting emissions and profit go hand in hand with 0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:05.680 that taxpayer money? I'm just asking, I'm not. 0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:08.359 Talking about asking for a friend. 0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:09.879 Yes, of course not. 0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:15.680 He is getting this recognition because he's pushing his high 0:17:15.680 --> 0:17:19.760 public profile with crazy schemes that have been shown to 0:17:19.800 --> 0:17:24.880 be an economic like green hydrogen, green steel. Now he's 0:17:24.920 --> 0:17:28.280 in the wind and basically this is not creating cheap 0:17:28.440 --> 0:17:33.240 energy for the community. This is attracting taxpayers money from 0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:38.200 a compliant government and charging people a huge amount for 0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:42.240 the energy and he would be the beneficiary. So he's 0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:46.600 been very successful at demonstrating what systems don't work and 0:17:46.640 --> 0:17:48.080 maybe he should get credit for that. 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:51.760 Well, he's made the list. I'm sure he'd be invited 0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:55.760 to lots of ritzy parties with who was on that list, 0:17:55.760 --> 0:17:57.960 Blake Lively. She's not exactly had a great year, Blake 0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:01.920 not very Lively either, Professor Implyman, thanks for your time, 0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:05.960 Thank you still to Karma. Lefties losing it Plus the 0:18:06.040 --> 0:18:10.880 latest from the US including the democracy denying No King's protests. 0:18:11.119 --> 0:18:23.920 Army Horowitz has the details. You're watching the Reader Panny Show, 0:18:23.960 --> 0:18:27.240 and it's time for lefties losing it. Let's start with 0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:33.120 democrats being democracy denying insurrectionists. Fancy having no King's rallies. 0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:36.560 You don't have a king. You have a duly elected 0:18:36.600 --> 0:18:40.800 president who won the election in a landslide against the 0:18:40.800 --> 0:18:46.720 candidate you undemocratically installed. Remember Kamala and that sham process. 0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:50.480 We certainly do. And there were plenty of celebrity idiots 0:18:50.480 --> 0:18:55.280 at these rallies, including the dangerously stupid Mark Ruffalo. 0:18:55.480 --> 0:19:00.400 Lakes of Putin and Nat Yahoo, and King Jung On. 0:18:59.720 --> 0:19:00.439 Of the world. 0:19:02.119 --> 0:19:05.840 Also at the rally worthy likes of Susan Sarandon, Julie 0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:11.040 Louis Dreyfus, Glenn Close, and the funniest man on the planet, 0:19:11.119 --> 0:19:15.399 Jimmy Kimmel. Sadly, Eva Longoria couldn't be there, but she 0:19:15.720 --> 0:19:17.160 recorded this message earlier. 0:19:17.640 --> 0:19:19.320 Every time I try to record a message, I just 0:19:19.320 --> 0:19:21.240 start crying and then I don't want it to be 0:19:21.240 --> 0:19:24.199 about me and my emotions about it. But it's just 0:19:24.320 --> 0:19:26.360 so inhuman. 0:19:27.080 --> 0:19:27.960 Hard to watch. 0:19:28.880 --> 0:19:29.359 It's hard. 0:19:29.480 --> 0:19:32.439 It's hard to witness from afar. I can't imagine what 0:19:32.480 --> 0:19:34.520 it's like to be in Los Angeles right now. I 0:19:34.560 --> 0:19:37.200 can't believe it's happening in Austin, Texas. I can't believe 0:19:37.200 --> 0:19:40.440 it's happening all over the country. The commons and people's 0:19:40.680 --> 0:19:43.800 reactions to it is really surprising to me because it 0:19:43.840 --> 0:19:44.800 is Unamerican. 0:19:45.840 --> 0:19:49.159 She's shocked by people's reactions. These people really do exist 0:19:49.160 --> 0:19:53.560 in a parallel universe. The deportation program, as we discussed 0:19:53.560 --> 0:19:57.240 at link last week, is enormously popular. Trump campaigned on it, 0:19:57.320 --> 0:19:59.879 he won on it, he has a mandate, and the 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:02.679 a group who have swung most strongly in support of 0:20:02.720 --> 0:20:07.960 his tough immigration policies are immigrants themselves legal ones. But 0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:10.159 the question has to be asked, what is it with 0:20:10.280 --> 0:20:14.320 Democrats and violence? They cannot even hold a dumb democracy 0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:18.600 denying rally without turning on each other. Let's check what 0:20:18.720 --> 0:20:27.960 happened in Salt Lake City, Utah. Oh my god, that's 0:20:27.960 --> 0:20:29.240 a gun. That's a gun. 0:20:29.440 --> 0:20:36.360 Come on, come on, get out, get over here. Yay, 0:20:36.960 --> 0:20:37.560 come here. 0:20:38.240 --> 0:20:40.840 According to police, a man who was believed to be 0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:44.760 part of a peacekeeping team for the No King's protest 0:20:45.440 --> 0:20:50.240 shot at another person at that rally, Toro Gamboa, who 0:20:50.359 --> 0:20:54.000 was brandishing a rifle for some reason, and this No 0:20:54.160 --> 0:20:58.560 King's peacekeeping team member managed to strike both the riflemen 0:20:59.000 --> 0:21:03.080 and an innocent by stander, who tragically later died at hospital. 0:21:03.600 --> 0:21:07.840 Now Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivy has no time for 0:21:07.960 --> 0:21:12.640 lawless writers, those incapable of holding a peaceful protest. Here 0:21:12.720 --> 0:21:15.680 he tells them precisely what will happen if they tried 0:21:15.760 --> 0:21:17.760 that sort of crap in Florida. 0:21:18.359 --> 0:21:22.120 If you resist loft lorders, you're going to jail. Let 0:21:22.160 --> 0:21:24.959 me be very clear about that. If you block an 0:21:24.960 --> 0:21:28.200 intersection or a roadway in Brevard County, you are going 0:21:28.240 --> 0:21:31.240
