Speaker 1: Late General Man, welcome the Late to.
Speaker 2: Play well good evening.
Speaker 3: I'm James Macpherson with Liz Storer and Joe Hildebrand.
Speaker 2: Coming up.
Speaker 3: Left wing media around the world mourning the death of
Speaker 3: an Australian penguin. Why you ask, because it was an
Speaker 3: openly gay penguin. Apparently we'll talk about that later. Plus
Speaker 3: when we get to the papers, Australia to begin manufacturing
Speaker 3: missiles in Newcastle, and an indigenous rights campaigner claims that
Speaker 3: aboriginal sites should be considered every bit as sacred as Gallipoli.
Speaker 3: All of that in tomorrow's papers. Will look at that shortly.
Speaker 3: But first, Western governments, in their bid to reduce emissions,
Speaker 3: have set goals around how many evs they would like
Speaker 3: people to purchase by twenty thirty. Here in Australia, Chris
Speaker 3: Bowen said he wanted eighty nine percent of all new
Speaker 3: cars sales to be electric by the end of the decade.
Speaker 3: The problem, of course, is that most people don't want
Speaker 3: to drive what Chris Bowen wants us to drive, and
Speaker 3: so he had to hastily back away from that figure
Speaker 3: when a government report revealed the sales were on track
Speaker 3: to be less than a third of what Chris Bowen
Speaker 3: had hoped for. As a consequence, we've now got a
Speaker 3: glut of unwanted Tesla's stockpiling in Australian ports.
Speaker 4: Two thousand Teslas arrive here at Port Melbourne every month,
Speaker 4: but there's no buyers to take them home.
Speaker 5: All of a sudden, we've got a huge, a huge
Speaker 5: backlog of Tesla's that aren't moving. They've just stopped moving.
Speaker 5: Tesla's used to come into this country pre sold, these
Speaker 5: cars aren't. They're sitting here waiting for buyers.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: America is another country that set goals for how many
Speaker 3: electric vehicles they would like, and the Ford Motor Company
Speaker 3: were all on board with Joe Biden's plans until they
Speaker 3: realized no one that was buying there either, and so
Speaker 3: they've now scrapped plans for a much anticipated electric suv.
Speaker 3: Talking to The Australian, the Ford's chief financial officer, John
Speaker 3: Lawler said, based on where the market is and where
Speaker 3: the customer is, we will pivot and adjust and make
Speaker 3: those tough decisions, which is a nice way of saying
Speaker 3: we've given up on the government's goals. Interestingly enough, the
Speaker 3: article goes on to say that Ford shares rows one
Speaker 3: point five percent in response to the announcement they weren't
Speaker 3: going to produce the electric suv.
Speaker 2: And maybe the next part of the.
Speaker 3: Article gives us a clue as to why get this.
Speaker 3: Ford has said its EV business is on pace to
Speaker 3: lose about five billion dollars this year. In the three
Speaker 3: month period ended in June, the automaker lost about forty
Speaker 3: four thousand dollars on every electric vehicle that it sold. Liz,
Speaker 3: isn't this just proof that the government are terrible when
Speaker 3: it comes to picking winners and losers. Socialism has proved
Speaker 3: to us you shouldn't let the government dictate what people
Speaker 3: have to buy.
Speaker 6: Are you coming around?
Speaker 4: Are you starting to say don't trust the government?
Speaker 6: Am I rubbing off on you?
Speaker 3: I mean I switched and change depending on the top.
Speaker 4: Of These numbers are not surprising, but it's been this
Speaker 4: way for a very long time. July, since July last year,
Speaker 4: the stats showed July this year hybrids are up sales
Speaker 4: in Australia by over eighty eight percent. Over the same
Speaker 4: time period, They're only up six point six percent if
Speaker 4: we're talking about evs, and yet that didn't stop Chris
Speaker 4: Bowen coming out earlier this month and saying we're doubling
Speaker 4: our funding to the driving the Nation's scheme up from
Speaker 4: two hundred and twenty five million to No, actually it
Speaker 4: was they've doubled it from two fifty million to five
Speaker 4: hundred million, because he's like, well, if we just build
Speaker 4: the infrastructure, if you build.
Speaker 6: It, they will come.
Speaker 4: But the market has consistently said quite some time now
Speaker 4: the people simply aren't buying evs.
Speaker 6: They're not buying evs. They're not desirable cars.
Speaker 4: For whatever reasons, whether they're too expensive, whether the infras
Speaker 4: structures not in place, whether they're reliable or not.
Speaker 6: I mean, how many funny.
Speaker 4: Stories have we been told about people just being stranded.
Speaker 6: Because there's not charging there's not charging us.
Speaker 3: Well, I think Chris Bowen's board an EV either isn't
Speaker 3: it a taxpayer funded one that he's driving.
Speaker 4: Oh well, it's still an EV we just had to
Speaker 4: pay for it.
Speaker 6: So he's a man of conviction.
Speaker 4: No, But regardless of which angle that you look at it,
Speaker 4: the government's plans simply aren't viable. And in fact, if
Speaker 4: you trace this back to when they first were looking
Speaker 4: at this policy pre election, it wasn't viable then it
Speaker 4: was always pie in the sky stuff. And yet the
Speaker 4: Aussie taxpayer is still trying to build what looks like
Speaker 4: even if they did build, it would be completely useless
Speaker 4: because the market says, no.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's true. Just the Soviet Union, I think that.
Speaker 1: I mean, the story here is one of ideology over pragmatism.
Speaker 1: And this is and when I was running the series
Speaker 1: for News, the Mission Zero series for News, this was
Speaker 1: something I came up against again and again and again,
Speaker 1: which is people saying, no, it has to be all electric,
Speaker 1: it has to be one hundred percent renewable, or we're not.
Speaker 1: We don't want any of it. And it was the
Speaker 1: most insanely frustrating time and my life, apart from maybe
Speaker 1: the Voice campaign, but that's another story. I'm still recovering
Speaker 1: from that. But we just had these people who were
Speaker 1: just just stubbornly banging their heads against the wall, acting
Speaker 1: completely contrary to their own best interests, in acting completely
Speaker 1: contrary to the country's best interest. And so you saw
Speaker 1: it firstly with gas. So they said, okay, we can't
Speaker 1: have any gas because even though and they would lie
Speaker 1: about this and say gas is just as bad as call.
Speaker 1: That is an absolute lie and demonstrably false. But anyway
Speaker 1: that would say, oh, no, gas is just as bad
Speaker 1: as call. We can't have gas or call. Anything that
Speaker 1: produces any CO two is evil as bad. We can't
Speaker 1: have that. It has to be all renewables. So as
Speaker 1: a result, what happened, well, gas was written out of
Speaker 1: the mix while we were waiting for coal to come down,
Speaker 1: and it had to be all renewables. But of course
Speaker 1: when the Sunday and shine and when didn't blow, we
Speaker 1: had to rely on that pre existing base load power.
Speaker 1: And what was it powered by? Not gas but by coal,
Speaker 1: which is almost fifty one hundred percent worse than gas.
Speaker 1: So as a result of this perfection or nothing, it's perfect,
Speaker 1: not good policy, it actually produced more emissions, more emissions.
Speaker 1: And again we've got the thing where they don't want
Speaker 1: to entertain hybrids because of course hybrids do still produce
Speaker 1: some emissions. And the number one reason I can guarantee
Speaker 1: you that people don't buy evs it's range anxiety, which
Speaker 1: is something I used to suffer from in my youth.
Speaker 1: But you get a pill and you can I perform
Speaker 1: just fine now, But it is it is the fear that.
Speaker 1: And again it's not as big a problem in Europe obviously,
Speaker 1: because you know there is no outback in Europe, but
Speaker 1: you know, you know you can. There are stories of
Speaker 1: people doing the city in the Bevelburn drug there's just
Speaker 1: absolute horror shows an electric vehicle. So you know if
Speaker 1: you're in a hybrid that even if the electric motor
Speaker 1: completely packs up, at least you've still got that back up.
Speaker 1: And of course even if you're in the middle of nowhere,
Speaker 1: you can always stop at a petrol station and you
Speaker 1: know you can get from point A to point B.
Speaker 1: If you don't, if you don't have absolute confidence that
Speaker 1: you can get from point A to point B, you
Speaker 1: will not buy that Carques no way.
Speaker 3: My question is how on earth can the Ford Motor
Speaker 3: Company sustain a five billion dollar a year loss on
Speaker 3: their electric creditor vehicle.
Speaker 1: It just gives you an idea of how huge this
Speaker 1: company is and how Yes.
Speaker 3: But it must be sustained by the sale of internal
Speaker 3: combustion engine vehicles. That's what would be propping it all up.
Speaker 3: So one is paying for the other.
Speaker 4: Yeah, until the board meets and they're like, actually, we're
Speaker 4: pulling the plug.
Speaker 6: This simply isn't financially viable to.
Speaker 4: North Carolina now, where Trump has done his first outdoor
Speaker 4: rally since the assassination attempt on his life. But this
Speaker 4: time he's got a perspex enclosure, which of course is
Speaker 4: bullet proof. Does this mean that the shooter, any shooter
Speaker 4: or hopeful shooter, would just have to come from behind
Speaker 4: because you're not.
Speaker 3: There's nothing, it's the only place they could come from.
Speaker 2: It's on three sides.
Speaker 4: Or you could just wait until drump leaves the enclosure,
Speaker 4: as he did, therefore kind of defeating the whole point
Speaker 4: of the process, and I'm sure curling his secret service
Speaker 4: as his hair in the process. But he wanted to
Speaker 4: go check on a lady who had passed out from
Speaker 4: the heat in the crowd.
Speaker 7: Take a look, Ah.
Speaker 4: The man will know and love, especially Joe. Joe absolutely
Speaker 4: loves Donald.
Speaker 1: It was amazing. I didn't know he was a faith healer.
Speaker 1: That's incredible. Like Jesus, image is just growing, but it
Speaker 1: is brilliant optics is my first thought when I realized
Speaker 1: that Donald Trump was doing his first outdoor rally behind
Speaker 1: the perspects the bulletproof glass. I thought it's not great
Speaker 1: for his image. I know, yes, it means he's less
Speaker 1: likely to be shot and killed, and so I get
Speaker 1: the reasoning. But Trump is, of course the man who's fearless,
Speaker 1: the man who fears no bullet, who no bullet can fall.
Speaker 1: And then he's behind this glass and so you can
Speaker 1: guarantee that while I'm sure, you know he holds a
Speaker 1: medical degree from you know, Harvard University, and while I'm
Speaker 1: sure he can heal people with his hands, the reason
Speaker 1: why he would have gone out there was just to
Speaker 1: show that he wasn't afraid, it wasn't loud, and that
Speaker 1: he's still, you know, the man of the people, who
Speaker 1: moves among the people no perspects class is going to
Speaker 1: keep between men. Think, although it is very COVID safe.
Speaker 3: I don't think Trump is afraid of a shooter. I
Speaker 3: think Trump is afraid of the Secret Service because that
Speaker 3: glass enclosure is an admission by the Secret Service. We
Speaker 3: can't keep you safe, so we better surround you with
Speaker 3: bulletproof glass.
Speaker 2: But people love Trump for that.
Speaker 3: The fact that he went out from that went down
Speaker 3: to the crowd, especially when at the same time at
Speaker 3: the DNC, all they've talked about is Trump, and one
Speaker 3: of the things they keep claiming is that Trump is
Speaker 3: self serving.
Speaker 2: All he cares about is himself.
Speaker 3: Well, the best way to knock that on the head
Speaker 3: is to walk out from behind the bulletproof enclosure down
Speaker 3: into the crowd, to mingle with people risking your life
Speaker 3: speaking of the DNC and speaking of the DNC.
Speaker 2: Speaking of Trump, Trump knows where that's at. And have
Speaker 2: to listen to what he said.
Speaker 1: That charade that they have going on.
Speaker 8: They mentioned my name I think two hundred and seventy
Speaker 8: one times. They mentioned the economy, like twelve times. They
Speaker 8: mentioned the border.
Speaker 1: Maybe none.
Speaker 7: They don't talk about the border.
Speaker 8: Our Great Borders doesn't talk about the border. But they
Speaker 8: mentioned me more than any other category.
Speaker 2: I'm now a category.
Speaker 7: They had me down today as a category.
Speaker 6: That's all they talk about Trump. We've driven them crazy.
Speaker 8: They have Trump derangement syndrome.
Speaker 3: Lizz, He's not wrong. I've watched a bit of the DNC.
Speaker 3: I know you've watched a lot of the DNC. Very
Speaker 3: much of the d spare Joe and either Trouble and
Speaker 3: I mean Donald Trump has been the number one thing
Speaker 3: they've spoken.
Speaker 4: About one I mean, they barely make sense, like you
Speaker 4: watch these speeches It's the most low IQ conference of
Speaker 4: any description I've ever watched in my entire life.
Speaker 6: They're all talking, but they're not saying anything.
Speaker 4: Half the time they pause, the crowd is waring, clapping maniacally,
Speaker 4: and you're just like, what did.
Speaker 6: You even say? What does that even mean?
Speaker 4: And they have talked about him obsessively.
Speaker 6: And the funny thing is.
Speaker 7: Clearly it doesn't occur to any of the.
Speaker 4: Attendees there that the Democrats have been in control of
Speaker 4: the White House for the last out of the last
Speaker 4: sixteen years, twelve years, and yet everything is Donald Trump's fault.
Speaker 4: Everything is Donald Trump's fault.
Speaker 6: How do you explain all of the.
Speaker 4: Problems that are going to be solved by the next
Speaker 4: administration if you'll just re elect them again when they've
Speaker 4: been in power for the last three and a half years.
Speaker 4: It's completely nonsensical. I don't know whether they've hired a crowd, but.
Speaker 6: These people are just swallowing it all.
Speaker 4: It's all about the vibe, it's all about the hype
Speaker 4: and literally zero substance. I keep listening for it, I
Speaker 4: keep waiting for it. Maybe they're going to roll out
Speaker 4: some pollt nothing.
Speaker 3: It's one of the funny things about Kamala Harris. She's
Speaker 3: at the DNC, you know, and her supporters saying if
Speaker 3: she's elected, she's going to do this, She's going to
Speaker 3: fix that. It's like, you've been the vice president for
Speaker 3: the last four years.
Speaker 2: What were you doing?
Speaker 3: Oh, that's right, she was working on the border down south.
Speaker 3: Donald Trump, however, he's got some ideas about what he
Speaker 3: will do if he wins the election, including how he
Speaker 3: will dewoke the military have listened to what he says.
Speaker 8: Do you want to have a sex change or a
Speaker 8: social justice seminar, then you can do it somewhere else,
Speaker 8: but you're not going to do it in the Army, Navy.
Speaker 1: Coastcote now for space for US.
Speaker 8: Or the United States Marines.
Speaker 1: So I love that there's space for us. I just
Speaker 1: love that there's space for it. It's really I know,
Speaker 1: it's an absolutely thing. The interesting thing with the constant
Speaker 1: mentions of Trump is that it is a sign with
Speaker 1: a sign of a couple of things. Usually at this
Speaker 1: sort of tactic that an opposition would lose use against
Speaker 1: a government. So don't look at us, just look at
Speaker 1: that government that you hate. Look at that thing. So
Speaker 1: they're almost acknowledging psychologically that this is actually Trump's election
Speaker 1: to lose. I actually think now it's Karmala's election to lose,
Speaker 1: but that's another story. But that he's obviously so in
Speaker 1: their heads that they have to make it all about
Speaker 1: how bad he is, because of course they can't make
Speaker 1: it all about how good Karmala is. So it is
Speaker 1: literally they're trying the same thing that Joe Biden did
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty, which is, we don't want you to
Speaker 1: vote for Joe Biden. We just want you to vote
Speaker 1: against Donald Trump. And so you have all these people
Speaker 1: right from you know, Bernie Sanders Socialists to Mitt Romney Republicans,
Speaker 1: this massive political spectrum that literally includes every single person,
Speaker 1: every single cause, every single place on the spectrum except
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. And that's the coalition that they need to
Speaker 1: beat him, and that is what they're going for again.
Speaker 1: And it's kind of like what not that you know,
Speaker 1: Anthony Aberneze isn't the best Prime minister in Australia but
Speaker 1: certainly currently. But it's also what Labor I think, and
Speaker 1: is a misstep by Labor to try and just attack
Speaker 1: Peter Dutton and attack Peter Dutton and make him the bow,
Speaker 1: you man, and try and just eat by him. And
Speaker 1: sometimes it works, but most of the time it only
Speaker 1: works if everyone really hates the guy as much as
Speaker 1: you hate him, and that kind of you know, in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two against Scott Morrison, that actually work, and
Speaker 1: so Scott Morrison loses the election without Labor really winning it.
Speaker 1: And so at the point being, if they are attacking
Speaker 1: Donald Trump this much, it is basically an admission that
Speaker 1: they their own candidate is pretty weak.
Speaker 2: I think there's no doubt about it.
Speaker 1: Who has any doubt about that? Just said that about
Speaker 1: all about.
Speaker 6: The other guy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's talk about the d n C. It was
Speaker 3: day what three overnight show you a few of the
Speaker 3: things that happened. But let's start with Oprah Winfrey. She
Speaker 3: was a surprise guest at the d n C Star Speaker.
Speaker 3: She didn't say much, as Liz said, she talked long
Speaker 3: without saying much, and then she weirdly broke into song.
Speaker 6: Let us choose truth, let us choose honor, and let
Speaker 6: us choose joy together, Let's all choose come all her.
Speaker 3: Liz I got to say how much preferred Oprah Winfrey
Speaker 3: when she was giving away cause, but what on earth
Speaker 3: is joy?
Speaker 6: I'm saying.
Speaker 4: So, this seems to be a new thing that they've coined,
Speaker 4: because when Bill Clinton got up to speak today, seriously,
Speaker 4: someone send me something to rejuvenate my soul, because this
Speaker 4: was seriously depressing.
Speaker 6: Day three.
Speaker 4: Anyway, they get Bill Clinton out and this was one
Speaker 4: of the first times I've heard it us but he
Speaker 4: referred to her as the president of Joy. Yeah, because
Speaker 4: she ain't the president of marce else except for all these.
Speaker 6: Hyped up vibes and don't we love her laugh? And
Speaker 6: so I think that is something that they're.
Speaker 4: Running with, maybe again trying to point out the difference between.
Speaker 6: Her and Trump.
Speaker 4: Trump being this gruff guy you don't often see, thinks
Speaker 4: Trump laughing.
Speaker 2: You had the nail on the head.
Speaker 3: Her cackle, which has been a subject of great ridicule
Speaker 3: for the last couple of years. They've turned that into no, no,
Speaker 3: it's not an embarrassing cackle.
Speaker 2: It's joy.
Speaker 4: And the previous day when her husband got up to
Speaker 4: speak and told their get together story again, nothing about policy,
Speaker 4: nothing about running the government, why she should be the
Speaker 4: next president of the United States of America.
Speaker 6: No, it was just all.
Speaker 4: About this lovely, heartwarming fearly story about how they got together,
Speaker 4: and he made a point of saying how much he
Speaker 4: loved her laugh and how that was one of the
Speaker 4: first things that appealed to him and made him really
Speaker 4: sweet on her. I would love to see you find
Speaker 4: that many people to agree. But of course this entire
Speaker 4: conference is just the vibe. So everyone's just like togetherness
Speaker 4: and niceness and awesomeness like I did it.
Speaker 2: Joe Biden was like, it's like.
Speaker 3: All joy in the angry old man and yelling and sneering,
Speaker 3: and yet.
Speaker 4: At the same time trying to convince everyone. They said,
Speaker 4: I'm angry at everyone for making me step down, but.
Speaker 1: I'm not angry.
Speaker 2: We're all like, yeah, okay, it is amazing.
Speaker 1: And you're absolutely right. They are going with the vibe
Speaker 1: because there is no kind of cogent, intellectual or policy
Speaker 1: argument for cul I mean that the policy argument is
Speaker 1: where people right now. And the problem these lunkheads mate,
Speaker 1: these people who just get stars in their eyes anytime
Speaker 1: they see a Democrat and open one of them, is
Speaker 1: that no normal person feels joy for politicians. No normal
Speaker 1: person feels euphoria because someone is a presidential candidate or
Speaker 1: someone is their local MP and they certainly don't feel
Speaker 1: it in the middle of a cost of living crisis.
Speaker 1: So the idea like the optics of Oprah a multi
Speaker 1: multi millionaire. In fact, I think a billionaire possibly getting
Speaker 1: up and saying, you should feel happy for Karmala. You
Speaker 1: should feel joy and happiness and love for Kamala Harris
Speaker 1: because you just should. Is exactly what Hillary Clinton did
Speaker 1: when it was with I'm with her. You know, you
Speaker 1: should vote for Hillary Clinton so that she can smash
Speaker 1: the glass ceiling and fulfill her lifelong dream to become
Speaker 1: the first female president of the United States. And people
Speaker 1: are like, I'm busting my nut here, I'm busting my guts.
Speaker 1: You know, they've just shut my car family, you know,
Speaker 1: the just to shut my car factory and moves it
Speaker 1: to Mexico. You know, Trump's out there at the rallies.
Speaker 1: You know Hillary, where was she? She was hanging out
Speaker 1: with Beyonce. Now you've got Kamala hanging out with Oprah.
Speaker 1: This is a terrible look. Like whoever is saying this
Speaker 1: is a good idea of making the exact same misact,
Speaker 1: I still don't know if it's going to hurt that much,
Speaker 1: but it is just nuts. But one person I did
Speaker 1: love at the DNC was this next guy is Bexa
Speaker 1: County Sheriff Haabier Satasah.
Speaker 6: Satis for the NAMA line.
Speaker 1: It's fantastic. But just you think he sounds good, wait
Speaker 1: till you see him.
Speaker 9: When Donald Trump comes down to Texas, stands next to
Speaker 9: officers and uniforms just like mine. He's not there to
Speaker 9: help us. Don't think that, not for a second. He
Speaker 9: is a self serving man. I mean, look like, just
Speaker 9: like when he killed the border bill, he just made
Speaker 9: our jobs harder.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 9: Karmala, on the other hen has been fighting border crime
Speaker 9: for years. She's gone down to Mexico and work to
Speaker 9: stop the traffickers. And when the traffickers didn't stop, she
Speaker 9: put them in jail.
Speaker 1: Now in Texas, that is what they call your dress hat.
Speaker 1: You don't wear it for ropen steers. You wear that.
Speaker 1: That's you. That's your night hat, that's your evening wear hat.
Speaker 1: You wear it out. It's fancy, it's prestige.
Speaker 3: I think in Texas they called that big hat no cattle.
Speaker 1: Don't they all hat?
Speaker 3: No no horse is true?
Speaker 6: What a blatant lie.
Speaker 7: It was the.
Speaker 6: Texan governor who actually it.
Speaker 4: Got down to the mattresses with the Feds because he said,
Speaker 4: if you won't allow us to protect our border and
Speaker 4: stop these illegals from coming over, I'm going to take
Speaker 4: matters into my own hands. And it was these big
Speaker 4: fisticuffs between the Texan governor and the federal government who
Speaker 4: kept saying.
Speaker 6: No, no, so we're in charge here.
Speaker 4: You don't get to take control of your own border,
Speaker 4: and the Texan government governor rather, who was saying, well, you're.
Speaker 6: Not taking any control of it, so it is left
Speaker 6: up to us.
Speaker 4: And here's this guy saying, oh, Kambala has been doing
Speaker 4: an amazing job.
Speaker 6: Trump never did anything. They are out right lies.
Speaker 4: There's a few conservative commentators who are literally doing fact checks,
Speaker 4: so every day of the DNC they'll watch the whole
Speaker 4: thing and then create these fact checks, like it takes hours.
Speaker 6: For them to get through it all. But it is
Speaker 6: just lie after life.
Speaker 1: Almost it's almost not even that because it's so vague
Speaker 1: that it's actually difficult to pin down things. So this
Speaker 1: guy's obviously been sent out to disable the one issue
Speaker 1: they know is most harmful to them, which is illegal
Speaker 1: immigration on the southern border. Right, so you know this
Speaker 1: is as close as they get to actually talking about
Speaker 1: policy and talking about the criticisms of their key immigration policy.
Speaker 1: I have this guy out here again wearing the big hat,
Speaker 1: trying to look authentic. It doesn't look like a bloke
Speaker 1: who's actually standing sentry on the wall, does it. There's
Speaker 1: not much, there's not much to East Texas red clay
Speaker 1: on him. But he's there anyway. And and but what
Speaker 1: does he say? He says, you know, Kamala Harris has
Speaker 1: been protecting our border for years, like you can't even
Speaker 1: say the number of years.
Speaker 3: When the truth is, we know that the Democrats love
Speaker 3: illegal migrants, and so Steve Cortez, a commentator, he decided
Speaker 3: to grab a Venezuelan illegal migrant and take him along
Speaker 3: to the DNC because the Democrats love illegal migrants.
Speaker 1: This is Edward from Venezuela migrant invited it by the
Speaker 1: Democrat Party. He likes to come into the Democratic Convention. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm going to have to go to Daxon. Yep, what
Speaker 1: you mean? He needs credentials and permission to come in
Speaker 1: the wall. It's like a border will away. How you
Speaker 1: wanted to get to the convention. We figured that they
Speaker 1: would love to have a migan Venezuela.
Speaker 7: Come in.
Speaker 1: They said me, give me a credacials. So we're here
Speaker 1: to get the creditionals as anyone. You don't know, so
Speaker 1: you don't think there's a process in an application where
Speaker 1: he didn't have that on the boarder. This is Edlin.
Speaker 1: He's in Venezuela. He's a migrant.
Speaker 6: Democratic Party wants an handlet stream of migrants into America.
Speaker 1: So I'd like to go and meet his political friends,
Speaker 1: listen to the speeches and coming to the Democratic events
Speaker 1: where you're laughing. He's a lot of the United States
Speaker 1: without identification of permission. Can he come in to the DNC.
Speaker 3: I don't think the figures there's going to go right
Speaker 3: now really has forty five seconds been so powerful in
Speaker 3: making a point. You can get into America really easy,
Speaker 3: but try getting into the DNC.
Speaker 2: No chance at all.
Speaker 4: All of a sudden, the Democrats aren't so keen on
Speaker 4: illegal migrants.
Speaker 6: Why can't they come to your big party?
Speaker 4: They owe it to you that they're here, Democrats. No
Speaker 4: closed doors all round. But one of my most favorite
Speaker 4: moments from day three of the DNC was the Commerce
Speaker 4: secretary who name's Gina Romando, She's being interviewed here, and
Speaker 4: she's asked about what she thinks about the fact that,
Speaker 4: according to the gov.
Speaker 10: Men's own data, a million of the new jobs that
Speaker 10: the Biden Harris administration claimed to have created during their
Speaker 10: tenure actually don't exist.
Speaker 1: When you hear that, do you potentially think that the
Speaker 1: new numbers could be a liability for this campaign? Now,
Speaker 1: when I hear that, first of all, I don't believe
Speaker 1: it because I've never heard Donald Trump say anything truth.
Speaker 8: It is though, from the Bureau of liver I don't
Speaker 8: I'm not familiar with that.
Speaker 4: So it is not just Donald Trump. It is the
Speaker 4: government's own data. I'm not familiar with the bureau.
Speaker 2: She's the Commerce secretary. I'm not familiar with the employment numbers.
Speaker 2: It's just a lot of joy, just a lot of joy.
Speaker 1: One million and one jobs that have disappeared after that performance.
Speaker 1: That's absolutely terrible. I don't know about you guys, though,
Speaker 1: Whenever I go to the DNC, I like to make
Speaker 1: sure I get my right target demographic, because of course,
Speaker 1: you know, there's black men for Harras and black women Harris,
Speaker 1: white women for Harris, flying purple people leaders for Harris.
Speaker 2: So where would you be.
Speaker 1: I have three midgets and you know, snow white plus
Speaker 1: the guy on a chain somewhere out the back for Harris,
Speaker 1: I of course go to what my natural demographic is
Speaker 1: where I belong Hotties for Harris.
Speaker 11: I was at the Hotties for Harris party last day,
Speaker 11: which was the party a bunch of people went to,
Speaker 11: and it was like they had like all of these
Speaker 11: different sort of things. They had like mini golf where
Speaker 11: like you put you like go minigolf through like a.
Speaker 6: Ring of tampons and stuff. And then I went through.
Speaker 11: Then there was like a gumball machine and I was like, oh,
Speaker 11: let me turn the gumball machine and you know, maybe
Speaker 11: it's like a ringer say, and it was I have this.
Speaker 6: It was plan B.
Speaker 1: So I said earlier, this election is Kamala Harris's to lose.
Speaker 1: Why are they so desperate to lose it? Like why
Speaker 1: it being so weird and just crazy? Like who plays
Speaker 1: mini golf with tambons on your side?
Speaker 4: These guys have free visectomies and abortions going on in
Speaker 4: the car park of the DNC.
Speaker 6: You can't get well, I don't even want.
Speaker 4: To say weird because that's just outright degenerously.
Speaker 3: That's evil as far as I And just in case
Speaker 3: people missed it, she got an abortion pill.
Speaker 2: That was the award that she's won. The Plan B.
Speaker 3: The irony, of course, is that Kamala is the Democrats'
Speaker 3: Plan B. Donald Trump has just been on Fox and
Speaker 3: Friends warning about what America would look like if Kamala
Speaker 3: Harris is elected.
Speaker 2: Let's have a listen.
Speaker 8: These two people take it over. This country is finished. Well,
Speaker 8: he's a Marxist and that's where she's going to be.
Speaker 8: Open borders, no drilling. Our country will die.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 3: I don't think there's much doubt about that, particularly the
Speaker 3: open borders. The Democrats have shown no appetite at all
Speaker 3: for closing that, and you wouldn't expect anything to change
Speaker 3: if the Democrats are reelected. Let's go to another topic
Speaker 3: that we've talked about a fair bit lately, and that
Speaker 3: is the issue of microplastics being ingested by people. Scientists
Speaker 3: around the world are particularly concerned after studies are showing
Speaker 3: tiny shards of plastic are increasingly being found in human
Speaker 3: organs from lungs, kidneys, reproductive organs, kidneys, and now would
Speaker 3: you believe it in people's brains. In fact, it's such
Speaker 3: a problem that scientists have told The Guardian it should
Speaker 3: be declared a global emergency. The National Institute of Health,
Speaker 3: how we already have one of those conducted twenty four
Speaker 3: autopsies and found that when they weighed these people's brains,
Speaker 3: zero point five percent of the weight of the brain
Speaker 3: was actually plastics. They told The Guardian, it's pretty alarming.
Speaker 3: There's much more plastic in our brains than I would
Speaker 3: ever have imagined or been comfortable with. I don't know
Speaker 3: how much more plastic our brain can stuff in without
Speaker 3: it causing some problems.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: The last time they did such a study, according to
Speaker 3: The Guardian, was in twenty sixteen, and the amount of
Speaker 3: plastic in brains was half the amount shown by the
Speaker 3: most recent studies, which seems to indicate there's a lot
Speaker 3: more plastic in the environment but also being ingested or
Speaker 3: infused by human beings. They've done tests lives on animals
Speaker 3: and the effect of plastics, which found it causes cancer,
Speaker 3: impaired learning, impaired memory, and there's studies, according to the Guardian,
Speaker 3: that show that people with Alzheimer's who have died with
Speaker 3: Alzheimer's have had ten times the level of microplastics in
Speaker 3: their body ten to twenty than those without. So this
Speaker 3: is a major problem and it's starting to get real
Speaker 3: traction now.
Speaker 6: One hundred percent.
Speaker 4: And the fact that they found fifty more percent of
Speaker 4: fifty percent more microplastics in these brains as opposed to
Speaker 4: the brains that they tested just nine years ago in
Speaker 4: twenty sixteen, goes to show this is just a compounding problem.
Speaker 6: Like pfas, these plastics don't break down.
Speaker 4: They don't break down in the environment, they don't break
Speaker 4: down in your body.
Speaker 6: People are basically I liked it because the easiest way
Speaker 6: to understand this is.
Speaker 4: You are being microdosed with toxic chemicals on a daily basis.
Speaker 6: They're in your tea bags.
Speaker 4: They're in those popcorn things that we love to shove
Speaker 4: in the microwave and all it out.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that bag.
Speaker 4: That's how it gets its waxy consistency. That's how it
Speaker 4: can heat up so quickly cool down so quickly.
Speaker 6: The skin of.
Speaker 4: Lighter launching, that's pfas, there's pure Prefas, baby disposable coffee cups,
Speaker 4: the non stick cook pairs we use. It is literally
Speaker 4: we were talking about this earlier. This week, Sydney Water
Speaker 4: has come out and said, oh, there is PFAS in
Speaker 4: the water supply.
Speaker 6: We told you there.
Speaker 4: Wasn't, but turns out we actually finally tested for it
Speaker 4: and there is. So there's a reason why I keep
Speaker 4: saying this. The US say they spend up to two
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty billion dollars every year on the health
Speaker 4: side effects of.
Speaker 6: P fas in people's bodies.
Speaker 4: It's extremely toxic and with our ever growing world, we're
Speaker 4: just using more and more pfacts. Earlier generations did not
Speaker 4: have this problem. And now instead of governments cracking down
Speaker 4: on all the companies who are using these very liberally
Speaker 4: in products.
Speaker 6: They don't need two. I mean, it's the twenty first century.
Speaker 6: You meaning to tell me you don't know.
Speaker 4: How to make a tea bag without toxic chemicals in it.
Speaker 4: I don't believe you. But everyone in Australia can be
Speaker 4: extremely relieved. Here we are because we now have an
Speaker 4: inquiry in to peed bags the beginning of the free journey.
Speaker 6: It ends absolutely nowhere.
Speaker 4: And just to prove to you how important this is
Speaker 4: now to the Australian government, they have elected none other
Speaker 4: than Senator Lydia Thorpe.
Speaker 2: To chair this enquiry gonna be okay.
Speaker 6: Here's the statement that she put out.
Speaker 4: If it's somewhat reassuring, that's because obviously a staffer.
Speaker 6: Wrote it for her.
Speaker 4: These chemicals already affect every single person in the world,
Speaker 4: yet not enough is being done to manage our exposure
Speaker 4: to them and reduce the risks. P facs are the
Speaker 4: asbestos of the twenty first century. Great metaphor, but far
Speaker 4: more prevalent and far less understood. This committee has the
Speaker 4: opportunity to drive change that will protect and improve the
Speaker 4: health of every single person and the health of our
Speaker 4: waterways and country. To whoever wrote that, well done.
Speaker 6: This is better than nothing.
Speaker 1: How do you feel about the fact that you and
Speaker 1: lydia Thoughpe now have a overlab on this is your
Speaker 1: ven diagram.
Speaker 2: She'll probably reached out to work on her team.
Speaker 6: Well, I reckon.
Speaker 4: My five year old self could probably do a better
Speaker 4: job of sharing this inquiry and be more.
Speaker 3: Passionate with your thought, because it will give her something
Speaker 3: constructive to focus on.
Speaker 2: This is probably she does.
Speaker 4: Focus on it right, because it's no joke.
Speaker 2: Chemicals are colonized.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's a micro AGGRESSI.
Speaker 1: Just yeah, I'm sure it's a strong indication of how
Speaker 1: seriously the government is taking this issue. Another serious issue
Speaker 1: is the Flying Kangaroo. Are you familiar with that little brand?
Speaker 1: It's gone really well recently and they lost their CEO.
Speaker 1: I think the Chairman's just going to stick around for
Speaker 1: a little while.
Speaker 4: My friend just lost their luggage yesterday in New Zealand.
Speaker 4: Flying Kangaroo lost her luggage. The ditch queens, what what
Speaker 4: is going on?
Speaker 1: But yes, just when you thought that the problems were
Speaker 1: all over, it turns out that the airline is in
Speaker 1: trouble for allowing too many people into the Chairman's lounge.
Speaker 1: The chairman, who may or may not be long for
Speaker 1: this world. His lounge, nonetheless is highly active, including containing
Speaker 1: approximately ninety three percent of our nation's parliamentarians. There was
Speaker 1: a little yarn in the Daily Mail to this effect.
Speaker 1: You know you can trust it if it's in the
Speaker 1: Mighty Male, he says, why you're being left to foot
Speaker 1: the bill as airlines Wine and Dine are entitled federal
Speaker 1: pollys in ultra exclusive VIP clubs now in a bow
Speaker 1: that is stretched about as long as the trip from
Speaker 1: Australia to New Zealand, They say that the fact that
Speaker 1: all these perks are being spent on pollies and other
Speaker 1: VIPs in the chairman's lounge, they will eventually, at some
Speaker 1: point indeterminately a bit like a Kamala Harris policy be
Speaker 1: passed on to the consumer, the passenger in the form
Speaker 1: of higher fair prices.
Speaker 4: Discuss there was nothing in this article to suggest how
Speaker 4: we are paying for this.
Speaker 6: How do you know that they just had profits?
Speaker 4: I mean, they made great profits, so I don't I
Speaker 4: don't believe that we went across the hire because these
Speaker 4: guys go to the chairman lounge.
Speaker 6: That is a nice little bribe. Well that's the way
Speaker 6: I see it anyway, that Quantus is handing.
Speaker 4: Out to these very powerful people. We've talked before about
Speaker 4: how the government seems to have a.
Speaker 6: Soft spot, shall we.
Speaker 4: Say, to Quantas when it comes to not allowing a
Speaker 4: certain other airline into the country, which would have been
Speaker 4: great for the market, would have been great for US,
Speaker 4: and the Australian government says no kibosh that that would
Speaker 4: be damaging to Quantis. Quantas also got bailed out during
Speaker 4: the pandemic. Poor old what's the one that just went down?
Speaker 4: Hasn't got a bailout.
Speaker 1: Yet there was Rex, Yeah, that's right, and before that
Speaker 1: there was BONDSA yeah, bonds.
Speaker 3: None of those guys get at either.
Speaker 2: By the way, ninety three impulse, aout, compass and set.
Speaker 3: Nine of our federal politicians are members of the Chairman's Lounge,
Speaker 3: but eighty percent of our federal politicians are members of
Speaker 3: the virgin equivalent, which is beyond. And yet no one
Speaker 3: ever talks about how that's a bad.
Speaker 1: Well, you know what, I got a gold Have you
Speaker 1: been to the I've never been.
Speaker 3: Hasn't a politician invited me in?
Speaker 6: Have you not been in there? No, I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm a man of the people. I'm in the food
Speaker 1: court eating hungry jacks.
Speaker 2: I didn't think it was that. I guess it really,
Speaker 2: I thought it was. It's so talked up.
Speaker 3: I think I was expecting you know.
Speaker 6: I don't know the one I was in.
Speaker 3: I was like, I can understand why politicians would appreciate it, though,
Speaker 3: because could you imagine if you've got a politician sitting
Speaker 3: in the airport sort of terminal just with everybody else,
Speaker 3: every man and his dog would be lining up to
Speaker 3: either pat him on the back or kick him, And.
Speaker 6: So you are public servants, so they don't get patted
Speaker 6: on the back.
Speaker 7: Or I.
Speaker 1: Can telling people the best way to assassinate Donald drop.
Speaker 1: But now you say the best I would wake up politician.
Speaker 4: But the reason why Virgin hasn't been similarly scandalized in
Speaker 4: the papers about this is because the government hasn't been
Speaker 4: seen to do Virgin anything.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think it was less about the lounge
Speaker 3: and more about the chairman who was in charge at
Speaker 3: the time, because Ellen Joyce was highly political.
Speaker 2: I think the new chairperson.
Speaker 1: Here's the CEO, Richard Bloyder, I think is.
Speaker 2: The new CEO will be far less.
Speaker 1: But I kind of I had a Virgin. I was
Speaker 1: a member of the Virgin Gold Thing. I got my
Speaker 1: gold thing and I got it there. You know, I
Speaker 1: got it the hard way because someone came on studio
Speaker 1: tend and gave it to me. And then it's been good.
Speaker 1: I did everything I did my fly bys. I went
Speaker 1: the first choice liquor. I bought every single thing in
Speaker 1: that shop and got nothing. Now I'm but downgrade with silver.
Speaker 1: How's that justice, my parade? You've actually got a fly
Speaker 1: chairman's lounge from me. I'm in the mail room, boys, lounge.
Speaker 3: We're in a comfort Joe during the break. By the way,
Speaker 3: before we go to a break, a shout out to
Speaker 3: Merlin Clark. She's ninety four years old, told me the
Speaker 3: other day she watches every episode of.
Speaker 2: The Late Debate. I hope you're doing well.
Speaker 3: Merlin will be back in a moment with what's making
Speaker 3: news in tomorrow's papers. Welcome back. Well, let's take a
Speaker 3: look at what's making news in tomorrow's papers before we do.
Speaker 3: By the way, Joe, and you're kicking us off with
Speaker 3: a DLHI Telegraph. Yes, I've been listening to your podcast.
Speaker 1: You're the one.
Speaker 3: I don't know if other people are listening to it,
Speaker 3: but I got to say it's very good. You have
Speaker 3: Paul Murray the other week we did indeed and this
Speaker 3: logo award winner, load of award, wind.
Speaker 1: Of the gold, like we're the biggest man of the moment,
Speaker 1: Larry m We've got the inside store of how we
Speaker 1: won the goal, like all the little campaign tecks, what
Speaker 1: he actually really did on the Daily Sanes plus all
Speaker 1: the politics. So yeah, the real story with Joe Hildebrandt
Speaker 1: Reregat podcasts, everything you need to know answered and just
Speaker 1: just you don't need to listen to anything. Actually, this
Speaker 1: show and the last show and the real story with
Speaker 1: Joe held about, that's all you need to listen to.
Speaker 1: And the Daily Telegraph, which I'm about to tell you
Speaker 1: about right now. This story, the real story with Joe
Speaker 1: held around, this show and the Daily Telegraph, and I
Speaker 1: can get mother listen to your mother as well, that's
Speaker 1: very important. But yes, from Bay to the Daily Telegraph today.
Speaker 1: Thank you very much Jones for that shameless pug little
Speaker 1: Yan and I wrote the leader for It's fantastic. It's
Speaker 1: about a guy he went to his favorite cafe, his
Speaker 1: local cafe. He says the food there is so good
Speaker 1: that he just wolfs it down. He actually said, yes,
Speaker 1: I just did the breakfast so good the bakery I
Speaker 1: inhale it. And then one day he did actually inhale it.
Speaker 1: Oh he's and he's sucked in a bit of toast
Speaker 1: and he started choking, and he's and he's dying right
Speaker 1: like he's fully joking. Cannot breathe and he's pointing to
Speaker 1: like pointing to this point into that because he can't talk.
Speaker 1: And the cafe owner was not mean to be working,
Speaker 1: but just having to stop buying his way back from
Speaker 1: the gym. He springs out from behind the coffee machine.
Speaker 1: He thinks, oh my God, in the back of his head,
Speaker 1: I know he's got a brain aneurysm. And then he realizes,
Speaker 1: I know he's actually choking, and he performs that. He
Speaker 1: performs a Heimlich maneuver. And how do you know how
Speaker 1: to do it? I just did what they do in
Speaker 1: the movies.
Speaker 4: Yes, if someone was choking in a restaurant or cafe
Speaker 4: that I was at, I just feel like I know
Speaker 4: how to do it because we've all seen it so
Speaker 4: many times on the movie.
Speaker 3: I mean, I've had occasions where you get a bit
Speaker 3: of food stuck and for a split second, it's incredibly scary.
Speaker 3: I can't imagine what it would have been standing there
Speaker 3: thinking I Am going to die now.
Speaker 6: It's only terrifying if you're alone. Imagine if you will.
Speaker 6: Normally you're sat alone.
Speaker 4: At home one night, you're eating that toast, you start choking.
Speaker 4: You don't have a hope in heck, there is no one.
Speaker 6: What are you going to do?
Speaker 1: Dark place on the next door name.
Speaker 4: My brain thinks of these things. Okay, people, one train
Speaker 4: of thought. I have seven on four tracks.
Speaker 6: All the conductors are screen avoiding each other.
Speaker 1: So this is what about all the children in Africa
Speaker 1: who can't even afford toast?
Speaker 3: But this guy almost died on a piece of total
Speaker 3: almost direct.
Speaker 2: Let's go to the Castle.
Speaker 3: The Newcastle Herald, they've got exclusive story strike weapons to
Speaker 3: be built at New Williamtown Factory Missile Launch, reads the headline.
Speaker 3: The story says the Federal Government will build a missile
Speaker 3: factory on Newcastle Airport owned land.
Speaker 2: Minister for Defense, Industry and.
Speaker 3: Capability Delivery Pat Conroy is expected to announce today, so
Speaker 3: bear in mind this is tomorrow's paper, so this will
Speaker 3: be announced on Friday. That the factory will employ about
Speaker 3: one hundred people when operating and five hundred workers during construction. Now,
Speaker 3: the Australian Government is partnering with the Norwegian firm. The
Speaker 3: Federal Governments investing eight hundred and fifty million dollars in
Speaker 3: this project. They'll produce missiles and will be valued at
Speaker 3: two million dollars each with a range of seven two
Speaker 3: hundred and seventy five kilometers. They can be fired from
Speaker 3: land or This is a great thing for our country
Speaker 3: because obviously if we are in a war, there was
Speaker 3: a report in The Australian some months ago saying that
Speaker 3: if we were involved in a war, we would run
Speaker 3: out of ammunition. I think it was within a week
Speaker 3: of hostilities beginning. So the ability to manufacture our own
Speaker 3: munitions is kind of handy.
Speaker 1: Well. Paul Keating famously said that challenging China was like
Speaker 1: throwing toothpicks at a mountain, and that was actually our
Speaker 1: plan under the previous defense strategy. That is pretty much
Speaker 1: all we had. So this is fantastic.
Speaker 6: It's awesome if it ever happens. Like honestly, I.
Speaker 4: Read the government's declaration of this, the media release. It
Speaker 4: doesn't even name a date, not for the start, not
Speaker 4: for the finish. I mean, we know you never hit
Speaker 4: your targets, but at least pretend to make them to
Speaker 4: the front page of the Australia.
Speaker 6: Now first story is we've got so many. I'm spoilt
Speaker 6: for choice.
Speaker 1: We got our I don't see Managing director.
Speaker 4: Yes one for the fact check unit ABC's human shield
Speaker 4: claims Williams wanted him to stay. ABC Managing Director David
Speaker 4: Anderson has surprisingly resigned just one year into his second
Speaker 4: five year term, ending a tumultuous tenure in which the
Speaker 4: public broadcaster weathered heavy attacks on its editorial standards, experienced
Speaker 4: an alarming drop in its radio audiences, and faced internal
Speaker 4: unrest over allegations of racism and sexual harassment. So he's
Speaker 4: going to formally step down early next year.
Speaker 6: You'd think you'd just be glad to be gone.
Speaker 3: It was Laura Tingle who was calling him a human shield,
Speaker 3: saying that he was the punching bag for the ABC,
Speaker 3: and they've had quite a few problems while he was there.
Speaker 3: I mean there was the coronation Yich got huge criticism.
Speaker 3: There was Stan Grant to accuse the ABC of not
Speaker 3: properly defending.
Speaker 2: Him and looking after him.
Speaker 3: There were surveys of staff that found been one hundred
Speaker 3: had been sexually harassed one hundred and eighty sixty.
Speaker 1: So I've been accused of a culture of racism and
Speaker 1: sexual harassment. So the ABC is being attacked by the
Speaker 1: left for not being progressive and inclusive and enough of
Speaker 1: a safe space. It gets attacked by the left online
Speaker 1: for being two right wings. So insiders David Spears constantly
Speaker 1: monstered Lee's sales, absolutely monstered when she dared questioned Dan
Speaker 1: Andrews Lisa Miller from ABS and His Breakfast basically bullied
Speaker 1: off social media because people kept attacking or attacking or
Speaker 1: attacking and attacking it. So I feel sorry for David
Speaker 1: Anderson because you've got everyone else on the right, of
Speaker 1: course or conservative people saying this is obviously just a
Speaker 1: boring left wing love in which in a lot of
Speaker 1: cases it kind of is. But at the same time
Speaker 1: you've got all the people who claim to feel most
Speaker 1: passionate about the ABC accusing it. If you can believe this,
Speaker 1: and trust me, it is out there of being it
Speaker 1: being too right wing but lurching to the right. And
Speaker 1: so the poor guy I would have quit too. I
Speaker 1: would just go, you know what, f you all, He's
Speaker 1: got enough money to last in a lifetime.
Speaker 3: So one year into a new five year contract he's
Speaker 3: pulled up stumps.
Speaker 4: That's you know, you got to know someone's desperate to
Speaker 4: be out by that point.
Speaker 6: Otherwise you'd just be like, heck, I've got the contract.
Speaker 4: Or follow it through to the second headline on the
Speaker 4: front of the os axed mind site.
Speaker 6: Cultural significance of Gallipoli. I don't know about that.
Speaker 4: An Indigenous historian who helped spearhead a campaign that brought
Speaker 4: down the one billion dollar mcphillamy's gold project in central
Speaker 4: New South Wales, said the proposed MIND location should be
Speaker 4: treated with the same respect as the historical sites of
Speaker 4: Gallipoli and Battle of the Somme because of the cultural
Speaker 4: significance of the Frontier War was fought on the site
Speaker 4: in the eighteen hundreds. I mean, obviously, this is the
Speaker 4: person who spearheaded the attempt to get this MIND taken down.
Speaker 6: It was taken down. It's no longer going ahead.
Speaker 4: So she would say something anyone's definition.
Speaker 1: But I think the mainstream indigenous groups actually wanted to
Speaker 1: go ahead, like I think the local landcap if they did,
Speaker 1: wanted to go ahead. And she's just sort of some
Speaker 1: kind of fringe. I mean, maybe she knows something that
Speaker 1: no one else knows, but she's a kind of I
Speaker 1: think they describe her as a dissident, dissident voice in
Speaker 1: the thing. So it's very weird that kind of even
Speaker 1: the main official sort of indigenous bodies want this to
Speaker 1: go ahead. And yet just because someone said, oh no,
Speaker 1: actually I don't think I should, and that's it. A
Speaker 1: billion dollars worth of industry, economic investment gone.
Speaker 3: Yeah, comparing the site to Gillipli is not going to
Speaker 3: win any friends.
Speaker 6: Oh it clearly declares you're a nutter. Okay.
Speaker 4: Last headline, ETU two withhold rather one million dollars in
Speaker 4: ALP donations. The Electrical Trades Union will withhold more than
Speaker 4: one million dollars in political donations to the ALP for
Speaker 4: the next federal election. In Protestant labor legislating to force
Speaker 4: the CFMEU into administration and redirect money towards finding a
Speaker 4: potential high Court funding rather a potential high Court sharee
Speaker 4: to the legislation, Joe, your mates are in turmoil.
Speaker 1: Oh I know these are not my mates. ATU has
Speaker 1: flipped to the hard left. It was left all around
Speaker 1: the country except in New South Wales. That union then flip.
Speaker 1: These are the same people who walked out on elbow
Speaker 1: in the middle of his speech to the New South
Speaker 1: Wales State Labor Conference. They are traitors, They are trees
Speaker 1: and us ruts. They should be treated as such.
Speaker 3: All right, we're going to go to a break, but
Speaker 3: stick around after the break. The left wing media mourned
Speaker 3: the death of a openly gay penguin and a thief
Speaker 3: court after he stops mid robbery to read a book.
Speaker 2: It's coming up in a moment. Welcome back, all right,
Speaker 2: Liz story.
Speaker 3: You've got a hilarious story about a book thief in.
Speaker 2: Italy in Rome.
Speaker 4: He was there to steal stuff from a hotel room,
Speaker 4: got distracted by a book, and then got busted because.
Speaker 6: He couldn't put it down. The article reads the man,
Speaker 6: a thirty eight year old Italian, gained act access.
Speaker 4: To the building and the Delevatoria district from the balcony,
Speaker 4: but became distracted after seeing a book on a bedside table. However,
Speaker 4: the owner of the property, a seventy one year old man,
Speaker 4: woke up and confronted the burglar, who was reportedly sitting
Speaker 4: on a bed absorbed in the book.
Speaker 6: Of course, you want to know what is this book?
Speaker 6: How was it so incredible?
Speaker 4: The book is called The Gods at six the Iliad
Speaker 4: at apateef time.
Speaker 6: Is that how you pronounce apatheev?
Speaker 2: Sounds pretty good to me.
Speaker 6: I'm just not exotic enough. But it's about the Iliad
Speaker 6: from the point of view of.
Speaker 4: The gods, while highlighting the interpretive power of the epic
Speaker 4: work to understand current events.
Speaker 6: Not something that you would have thought would capture this
Speaker 6: burglar who was there to steal stuff.
