WEBVTT - Sharri | 26 November

0:00:01.560 --> 0:00:05.479
<v Speaker 1>Live on Sky News. This is Sharry.

0:00:07.480 --> 0:00:10.600
<v Speaker 2>Good Evening, and I've got a big exclusive interview tonight

0:00:10.680 --> 0:00:16.200
<v Speaker 2>with Donald Trump's newly appointed Director of counter Terrorism, Sebastian Gorka.

0:00:16.600 --> 0:00:21.279
<v Speaker 2>Doesn't hold back on just how weak international leaders have been.

0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:21.840
<v Speaker 3>Have a look.

0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:26.560
<v Speaker 4>Every nation in the world will have a decision to make.

0:00:26.720 --> 0:00:30.240
<v Speaker 4>Do you stand with those who are taking the fight

0:00:30.520 --> 0:00:34.240
<v Speaker 4>to the Jihades, to the terrorists, to the evildoers, or

0:00:34.280 --> 0:00:37.040
<v Speaker 4>do you stand with those who are trying to destroy

0:00:37.080 --> 0:00:37.880
<v Speaker 4>our civilization.

0:00:39.320 --> 0:00:43.239
<v Speaker 2>That's Donald Trump's new senior director of counter Terror and

0:00:43.280 --> 0:00:45.040
<v Speaker 2>that strong message for the likes of.

0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:46.880
<v Speaker 3>Albanzi and Penny Wang.

0:00:47.200 --> 0:00:51.320
<v Speaker 2>That big interview coming up also tonight, in her first

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:56.640
<v Speaker 2>interview since the Albanzi government refused her visa, former Israeli

0:00:56.680 --> 0:01:01.040
<v Speaker 2>Minister Iolette Shaked will join me live on the She.

0:01:01.240 --> 0:01:02.440
<v Speaker 3>Is fired up now.

0:01:02.520 --> 0:01:05.759
<v Speaker 2>This has been a big story and that exclusive interview.

0:01:05.360 --> 0:01:07.320
<v Speaker 3>With Ilett will be up shortly.

0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:10.920
<v Speaker 2>Plus the debate over the social media band for kids.

0:01:11.160 --> 0:01:14.119
<v Speaker 2>Some coalition figures are now saying they're going to.

0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:14.959
<v Speaker 3>Cross the floor.

0:01:15.480 --> 0:01:17.600
<v Speaker 2>And yet we've had a couple of sunny days in

0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:21.959
<v Speaker 2>Sydney and we're already being warned about blackouts I'll speak

0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:25.440
<v Speaker 2>about all of this with Bronwyn Bishop, Caleb Bond, Cameron

0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:29.520
<v Speaker 2>Milner and Liz Burke. But first, the Prime Minister is

0:01:29.560 --> 0:01:33.520
<v Speaker 2>facing worse and worse economic results by the day, but

0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:37.240
<v Speaker 2>he refuses to acknowledge the gravity of this cost of

0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:42.959
<v Speaker 2>living crisis gripping the nation. In Parliament today Albanezy pretended

0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:47.400
<v Speaker 2>everything was rosy, Wages going up, he said, gender pay

0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:49.520
<v Speaker 2>gap solved, inflation.

0:01:49.200 --> 0:01:52.360
<v Speaker 3>Falling, no dramas well.

0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:56.360
<v Speaker 2>Alban Ezy's head is in the Copa Cabana cliff top

0:01:56.560 --> 0:01:59.320
<v Speaker 2>clouds and here's his reality check.

0:01:59.840 --> 0:02:00.840
<v Speaker 3>The news today that.

0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 2>The Albanezy government is presiding over the longest household recession

0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:09.760
<v Speaker 2>GDP per capita has been falling for the.

0:02:09.680 --> 0:02:11.320
<v Speaker 3>Past six quarters.

0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:15.120
<v Speaker 2>This is longer than any period over the past fifty years,

0:02:15.600 --> 0:02:18.800
<v Speaker 2>according to The Australian. And the only reason when not

0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:22.200
<v Speaker 2>in a nationwide full blown recession is because of the

0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:26.120
<v Speaker 2>high immigration numbers that's propping up the budget, the Big

0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:27.160
<v Speaker 2>Australia policy.

0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:29.000
<v Speaker 3>But that's all.

0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:33.760
<v Speaker 2>Irrelevant to the average family because at a household individual

0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:38.400
<v Speaker 2>level we are in a recession and families are feeling it.

0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:42.480
<v Speaker 2>Russ Greenwood spoke about this here last.

0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:47.639
<v Speaker 5>Night guess what happened. The individual the household has been

0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:51.400
<v Speaker 5>in recession for months and months and months now, and

0:02:51.520 --> 0:02:53.080
<v Speaker 5>that's what consumers are feeling.

0:02:53.480 --> 0:02:54.440
<v Speaker 1>That's what people are feeling.

0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:57.120
<v Speaker 5>That's the reason why you've got restaurants going out of

0:02:57.160 --> 0:03:00.200
<v Speaker 5>business around Australia right now, because people do not have

0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:01.400
<v Speaker 5>the disposable income.

0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:06.600
<v Speaker 2>And the actual figures show that business insolvencies have hit

0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:11.840
<v Speaker 2>their highest level since the pandemic, a four year high,

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:15.240
<v Speaker 2>and as we spoke about last night, household disposable income

0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:20.800
<v Speaker 2>is lower than even during Australia's past four recessions. Well,

0:03:20.919 --> 0:03:24.040
<v Speaker 2>given all of this, it's kind of stunning to think

0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:26.920
<v Speaker 2>that when Alban Easy became Prime Minister in May twenty

0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:31.040
<v Speaker 2>twenty two, the cost of living was his single biggest

0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:32.040
<v Speaker 2>election promise.

0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:33.240
<v Speaker 3>You couldn't have missed it.

0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:38.040
<v Speaker 6>Labor has a plan for a better future, a plan

0:03:38.320 --> 0:03:40.680
<v Speaker 6>not just for them but for their children as well,

0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:43.920
<v Speaker 6>for families, taking the pressure off the cost of childcare,

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:47.600
<v Speaker 6>the cost of electricity, a plan to address cost of living,

0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:52.800
<v Speaker 6>take pressure off cost of living, meaningful ongoing help with

0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:54.680
<v Speaker 6>the cost of living for families.

0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:58.320
<v Speaker 2>That was his promise, take the pressure off the cost

0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:01.560
<v Speaker 2>of living, but to a half years on. This is

0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:06.640
<v Speaker 2>the reality as articulated by the Coalition in question Time today.

0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:10.880
<v Speaker 7>After two and a half years of this Albaneze labor government,

0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:14.320
<v Speaker 7>Australians have seen their standard of living fall off a cliff,

0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:18.039
<v Speaker 7>the biggest reduction since records began in the fifties. We've

0:04:18.040 --> 0:04:22.160
<v Speaker 7>been in a household recession for a record six consecutive quarters.

0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 7>This is worse for households than Keaty's recession we had

0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:28.920
<v Speaker 7>to have and the disastrous Whitlam government this week. Prime

0:04:28.920 --> 0:04:31.680
<v Speaker 7>Minister is taking our country in the wrong direction. How

0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:34.839
<v Speaker 7>can Australian families afford another three years of labor?

0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:39.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's a brutal reality check and it was reflected

0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:42.000
<v Speaker 2>as well in a question on Q and A last

0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:46.000
<v Speaker 2>night that captured the sentiment of many Australians.

0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:49.680
<v Speaker 8>My husband and I we're a grocery shop. I mean,

0:04:49.720 --> 0:04:52.960
<v Speaker 8>the grocery shop is just staggering. And I don't know

0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:57.640
<v Speaker 8>personally knowing a number of people who don't have a house.

0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:00.120
<v Speaker 8>They're paying rent every week. And if you've got a

0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:03.120
<v Speaker 8>couple of children, how do they pay rent? Pay all

0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 8>these heavy tolls, huge grocery bills, Education, I mean medical

0:05:08.279 --> 0:05:10.960
<v Speaker 8>that the list just goes on and I think people

0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:13.560
<v Speaker 8>are getting to the point where they've lost all hope

0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:15.640
<v Speaker 8>in there being a better way of life than what

0:05:15.640 --> 0:05:16.880
<v Speaker 8>they're experiencing now.

0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:22.360
<v Speaker 2>Well grilled on these issues in Parliament today, alban Easy

0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:27.080
<v Speaker 2>spoke of wage growth and yes, it's true wages have

0:05:27.320 --> 0:05:31.800
<v Speaker 2>grown under Jim Chalmers, but the growth has sadly been

0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:35.000
<v Speaker 2>more than eroded by taxes and the higher cost of

0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:38.960
<v Speaker 2>goods and services thanks to inflation. But alban Easy, of

0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:42.839
<v Speaker 2>course never mentions the government's tax intake that's only getting

0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:48.480
<v Speaker 2>higher and higher, record tax thanks to bracket creep. And

0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:51.520
<v Speaker 2>as you might have heard, Deloitte Access Economics said today

0:05:51.560 --> 0:05:54.640
<v Speaker 2>that we're looking at the most severe deterioration in the

0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:59.480
<v Speaker 2>budget bottom line ever recorded outside of the COVID pandemic.

0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:04.880
<v Speaker 9>This is the most significant deterioration in the underlying cash

0:06:04.920 --> 0:06:07.479
<v Speaker 9>balance that we've seen outside of the pandemics. What we

0:06:07.520 --> 0:06:11.360
<v Speaker 9>need in Australia is better fiscal policy, better economic reform

0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:14.120
<v Speaker 9>and tax reform to get the budget into a more

0:06:14.160 --> 0:06:16.040
<v Speaker 9>sustainable position over the longer term.

0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:19.760
<v Speaker 2>No we sit here, we're just weeks out from the

0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:22.840
<v Speaker 2>end of the year. When alban Easy had thought that

0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:26.039
<v Speaker 2>interest rates would be falling, and he would coast into

0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:29.920
<v Speaker 2>the summer break, sipping his elbow pale ale on the

0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:33.680
<v Speaker 2>balcony of his new Copa cabana clifftop mansion, and then

0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:37.919
<v Speaker 2>roll into an easy election win, just like he thought

0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:41.520
<v Speaker 2>he'd easily win the Voice, And when he didn't, he

0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:46.000
<v Speaker 2>blamed misinformation and said about trying to foist on Australians

0:06:46.400 --> 0:06:47.960
<v Speaker 2>new legislation that.

0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:49.560
<v Speaker 3>Would shut down free speech.

0:06:50.480 --> 0:06:53.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, trying to convince Australians that he's got this economic

0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:57.360
<v Speaker 2>crisis covered and that he should be re elected, Well,

0:06:57.400 --> 0:07:00.120
<v Speaker 2>that's going to be a harder sell than the Voice. Yes,

0:07:00.839 --> 0:07:05.640
<v Speaker 2>because this is personal right now, Many Australian parents will

0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:08.839
<v Speaker 2>be worrying about how they can afford to buy Christmas

0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:12.520
<v Speaker 2>presents for their kids this year. But none of this

0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:15.680
<v Speaker 2>seems to bother Alban Easy. It's like he doesn't know

0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:20.240
<v Speaker 2>it's even happening. A Prime minister living a life of

0:07:20.320 --> 0:07:24.320
<v Speaker 2>freebies and luxury while the nation he's meant to be

0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:30.920
<v Speaker 2>leading suffers. I'm going to come back to that in

0:07:30.960 --> 0:07:33.560
<v Speaker 2>a moment with Rodman Bishop and Caleb Bonda. They have

0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:36.160
<v Speaker 2>a lot to say, but I want to turn now

0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:39.360
<v Speaker 2>and tell you about an exclusive story. Now, the Israeli

0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:43.440
<v Speaker 2>government is furious at Tony Burke's decision to refuse to

0:07:43.480 --> 0:07:48.280
<v Speaker 2>issue a visa to a former Israeli minister, Iolette Shakhd.

0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:51.800
<v Speaker 2>She has family here in Australia. She was here in

0:07:51.880 --> 0:07:54.800
<v Speaker 2>March last year and there were no problems at all

0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:59.000
<v Speaker 2>with giving her a visa then. But Iolette applied for

0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:02.240
<v Speaker 2>a visa one again to visit her family and to

0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:06.520
<v Speaker 2>speak at a security conference in Canberra. But her visa

0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:11.600
<v Speaker 2>on Thursday night was rejected on character grounds. Now, this

0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:15.680
<v Speaker 2>was a political decision, and I can tonight reveal that

0:08:15.720 --> 0:08:20.520
<v Speaker 2>Tony Burke, as Home Affairs Minister, decided to review this decision.

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:26.680
<v Speaker 2>An Islet was informed in writing she was still on

0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:31.040
<v Speaker 2>standby to fly to Australia for the conference on Friday,

0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:35.640
<v Speaker 2>on Saturday, on Sunday on Monday, but she never heard

0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:37.400
<v Speaker 2>from Tony Burke again.

0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:39.319
<v Speaker 3>He ghosted her.

0:08:40.640 --> 0:08:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Far from diplomatic. This is a woman who was a

0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:48.640
<v Speaker 2>minister when if Talie Bennett was Israeli PM, and if

0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:52.920
<v Speaker 2>Neftalie Bennett is elected the Prime Minister again, as he

0:08:53.080 --> 0:08:55.559
<v Speaker 2>could very well be at some point in the years

0:08:55.600 --> 0:08:59.080
<v Speaker 2>to come, well then IoLET could once again hold a

0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:03.720
<v Speaker 2>senior position in the Israeli government. Yet Tony Burke and

0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:09.760
<v Speaker 2>the lousy pro Palestinian Albanesi government have shown her extreme discourtesy.

0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:16.320
<v Speaker 2>The Israeli government was very insulted by this highly political decision,

0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:21.400
<v Speaker 2>the anger felt at senior levels. The Foreign Minister Gideon

0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:26.440
<v Speaker 2>Sar is in disbelief over how a supposed ally could

0:09:26.440 --> 0:09:31.079
<v Speaker 2>treat Israel like this, and Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs

0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:35.480
<v Speaker 2>released this statement saying the Australian government's decision to deny

0:09:35.520 --> 0:09:40.439
<v Speaker 2>a visa to former Israeli Minister Islet Shaked is unacceptable.

0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:45.000
<v Speaker 2>The decision is deeply offensive and troubling and will have

0:09:45.040 --> 0:09:50.559
<v Speaker 2>a negative impact on Israel Australia relations. Now, the reasons

0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:54.360
<v Speaker 2>given by the Albanese government were that if Islet was

0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:57.640
<v Speaker 2>allowed to enter Australia, there's a risk she would and

0:09:57.679 --> 0:10:03.520
<v Speaker 2>I quote Villifi segment of the Australian community or incite

0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:05.920
<v Speaker 2>discord in the Australian community.

0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:09.360
<v Speaker 3>So because she's.

0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:15.280
<v Speaker 2>Jewish and Israeli, she might incite discord meaning disagreement in

0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:20.440
<v Speaker 2>the Australian community. That is offensive, it is racist, it

0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:25.720
<v Speaker 2>is discrimination. Shame on Tony Burke and albin Ezi. To me,

0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:30.160
<v Speaker 2>this sounds like the Albanzi government yet again caving into

0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:34.040
<v Speaker 2>terror supporters, because who else would be upset by inn

0:10:34.080 --> 0:10:38.360
<v Speaker 2>Israeli flying into our country. This is a capitulation to

0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:43.880
<v Speaker 2>harmas clear and simple. It's because Burke, Albinizi, Wong and

0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:47.640
<v Speaker 2>the rest of them make the devastating mistake of equating

0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:52.199
<v Speaker 2>Israel with the terrorists it's trying to destroy. It's this

0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:55.920
<v Speaker 2>type of weakness and moral confusion that Donald Trump as

0:10:56.000 --> 0:10:59.480
<v Speaker 2>president wants to stamp out. And as I said, I

0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:02.320
<v Speaker 2>have his new director of counter terrorism on my show

0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:06.560
<v Speaker 2>tonight in a big exclusive interview, Sev Gorka describes this

0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:11.640
<v Speaker 2>attitude as civilizational suicide.

0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:14.640
<v Speaker 4>Yes, we need leadership, and the good news is when

0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:17.480
<v Speaker 4>President Trump, my former boss, and god willing my future boss,

0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:22.000
<v Speaker 4>gets behind that resolute desk, every nation in the world.

0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:23.680
<v Speaker 1>Will have a decision to make.

0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:27.400
<v Speaker 4>Do you stand with those who are taking the fight

0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:31.320
<v Speaker 4>to the Jihades, to the terrorists, to the evildoers, or

0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:34.160
<v Speaker 4>do you stand with those who are trying to destroy

0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:35.000
<v Speaker 4>our civilization?

0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:36.920
<v Speaker 1>It will be a stark choice.

0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:42.160
<v Speaker 2>That interview is coming up, but never a true word

0:11:42.640 --> 0:11:49.040
<v Speaker 2>was said and I will have Isilett Chaquet on the

0:11:49.040 --> 0:11:53.120
<v Speaker 2>show a bit later that's Live after Australia's disgraceful decision,

0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:56.080
<v Speaker 2>and Sebastian Gorka coming up shortly as well. But now

0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:58.720
<v Speaker 2>let's bring in former Speaker of the House Bronwin Bishop

0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:00.079
<v Speaker 2>and Sky New's host k A.

0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:00.360
<v Speaker 3>Bond.

0:12:00.360 --> 0:12:03.920
<v Speaker 2>Great to see you both, Runwin, I want to ask

0:12:04.000 --> 0:12:07.600
<v Speaker 2>you about this news today that Australia is now in

0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:11.600
<v Speaker 2>the longest household recession in fifty years.

0:12:12.600 --> 0:12:15.720
<v Speaker 10>Why we're surprised and we've got a government that has

0:12:15.800 --> 0:12:20.440
<v Speaker 10>completely and utterly rejected everything that people have learned in

0:12:20.520 --> 0:12:26.080
<v Speaker 10>the years since we've had bad recessions. It's got wages

0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:30.600
<v Speaker 10>chasing inflation and that's a recipe for disaster. You've seen

0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:34.360
<v Speaker 10>the policies that they're pursuing with regard to energy, let

0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:36.800
<v Speaker 10>alone the question that we're going to get blackouts, which

0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:40.480
<v Speaker 10>is rationing of power as well. But aside from that,

0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:43.280
<v Speaker 10>it just feeds into the cost of everything that people

0:12:43.320 --> 0:12:47.840
<v Speaker 10>have to buy their groceries at the serpmarket. So when

0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:50.360
<v Speaker 10>we see those figures about just how bad it is,

0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:54.360
<v Speaker 10>I think we see just how poor discovernment really is

0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:57.880
<v Speaker 10>and it has to go at the next election because

0:12:57.920 --> 0:13:01.360
<v Speaker 10>Australia and Australians can't forward literally to have them for

0:13:01.400 --> 0:13:06.319
<v Speaker 10>another three years. If you don't have someone who can understand,

0:13:07.320 --> 0:13:12.360
<v Speaker 10>as Albanezi clearly doesn't. And Dr Chalmers with his PhD

0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:16.880
<v Speaker 10>in baull Keating, who honestly believes that he is going

0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:23.160
<v Speaker 10>to reform capitalism, we're in serious trouble. So I think

0:13:23.320 --> 0:13:26.959
<v Speaker 10>that people are awakening from the wokeness that they have

0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:30.959
<v Speaker 10>accepted for a long time. And I think people seeing

0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:32.440
<v Speaker 10>this government for what it is.

0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:35.280
<v Speaker 2>A no bigger issue than the cost of living Caleb.

0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:37.880
<v Speaker 2>And also it goes to the broken promise as well.

0:13:37.920 --> 0:13:40.040
<v Speaker 2>I mean just the number of times Albanzi made this

0:13:40.120 --> 0:13:43.600
<v Speaker 2>his central issue, it's kind of stunning to think it's

0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:44.520
<v Speaker 2>his biggest failure.

0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:47.839
<v Speaker 11>Well, it's hard to think of a prime minister or

0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:51.360
<v Speaker 11>a government in Australian history that has managed to achieve

0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:54.520
<v Speaker 11>so little in its first term. I mean, normally a

0:13:54.600 --> 0:13:57.120
<v Speaker 11>first term government you hit the ground running, here's our

0:13:57.160 --> 0:13:59.880
<v Speaker 11>policy platform, You've given us the mandate to do it.

0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:03.079
<v Speaker 11>What can alban easy point to that he has managed

0:14:03.120 --> 0:14:05.839
<v Speaker 11>to achieve in this term as Prime minister And we've

0:14:05.840 --> 0:14:08.680
<v Speaker 11>had Airbus elbow and upgrade elbow. We might stap calling

0:14:08.720 --> 0:14:12.040
<v Speaker 11>him absent elbow because he's not actually been there to

0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:14.960
<v Speaker 11>do anything. The only thing they can point to, which

0:14:15.000 --> 0:14:17.840
<v Speaker 11>is a fur fee, is that inflation has gone down.

0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:20.640
<v Speaker 11>But of course inflation has only gone down as an

0:14:20.680 --> 0:14:24.680
<v Speaker 11>official figure because the government has pumped money into things

0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:28.400
<v Speaker 11>such as a subsidizing energy for instance. It doesn't make

0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:30.800
<v Speaker 11>a difference to what you have in your pocket. It

0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:33.400
<v Speaker 11>doesn't make a difference, as we know from the household figures,

0:14:34.040 --> 0:14:37.200
<v Speaker 11>what you have to spend. It simply diddles the numbers

0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:38.920
<v Speaker 11>to make the government look good. Apart from that, they've

0:14:38.920 --> 0:14:40.640
<v Speaker 11>done literally nothing, but.

0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:43.200
<v Speaker 2>Inflation is still above the target back. It means that

0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:45.520
<v Speaker 2>the price of everything is rising more than it should.

0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:49.640
<v Speaker 2>Just for a little economics lesson that. Now, we've had

0:14:49.640 --> 0:14:52.320
<v Speaker 2>a couple of beautiful days of warm weather in Sydney.

0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:55.160
<v Speaker 2>Sorry to everyone in Melbourne watching, but when I say

0:14:55.200 --> 0:14:57.040
<v Speaker 2>warm weather, I mean in the city. It's been in

0:14:57.080 --> 0:15:01.200
<v Speaker 2>the high twenties, hardly a heat wave, and yet already

0:15:01.240 --> 0:15:04.760
<v Speaker 2>this is testing the energy grid. Here was the Australian

0:15:04.920 --> 0:15:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Energy Market Operator.

0:15:06.520 --> 0:15:11.880
<v Speaker 12>Today we are experiencing some quite unseasonable hot weather here

0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:16.160
<v Speaker 12>in New South Wales today, that combined with a number

0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:19.560
<v Speaker 12>of major generation units that are on outage, both due

0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:24.920
<v Speaker 12>to planned and unplanned maintenance, is causing tightness in electricity

0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:29.080
<v Speaker 12>supply here in New South Wales, both today and tomorrow.

0:15:30.080 --> 0:15:32.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean Brom and we just heard in there described

0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:36.320
<v Speaker 2>this as unseasonable hot weather. We're just days out from

0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:40.240
<v Speaker 2>the official summer period starts December the first, and yet

0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:42.600
<v Speaker 2>already it looks like the energy grid is going to

0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:43.720
<v Speaker 2>struggle to cope with it.

0:15:43.760 --> 0:15:46.120
<v Speaker 10>Well, of course it is because we are still totally

0:15:46.200 --> 0:15:50.160
<v Speaker 10>reliant on coal and coal five powerstations. And what has

0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:53.720
<v Speaker 10>happened because in the middle of the day when they

0:15:53.760 --> 0:15:58.880
<v Speaker 10>can buy and do buy circle renewables, it means that

0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:02.800
<v Speaker 10>the stations have to shut off, which means that they

0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:06.440
<v Speaker 10>are degraded, and the maintenance has not been up kept,

0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:09.680
<v Speaker 10>has not been keeping up, and so consequently you've got

0:16:09.880 --> 0:16:15.479
<v Speaker 10>various generators which are offline and being subject to repairs

0:16:15.520 --> 0:16:21.640
<v Speaker 10>and so called maintenance. It's been programmed, but it's not.

0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:24.320
<v Speaker 10>It is a question of saying the government has told

0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:27.760
<v Speaker 10>us that col fired power stations are out and therefore

0:16:27.800 --> 0:16:29.880
<v Speaker 10>we don't have to take care of them, and the

0:16:29.920 --> 0:16:32.960
<v Speaker 10>other fact is this that when you see that in

0:16:33.000 --> 0:16:35.880
<v Speaker 10>New South Wales that the government has had to renew

0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:41.040
<v Speaker 10>the life of Alfy pass over ROWI that was going

0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:43.560
<v Speaker 10>to shut down. That's going to happen more and more

0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:47.480
<v Speaker 10>because we can't do without it. And when I see

0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:50.280
<v Speaker 10>the head of AIMO get up there and say, well,

0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:53.800
<v Speaker 10>we're going to have to ration power, that's what he's saying.

0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:57.400
<v Speaker 10>Ration it. We're going to tell which users can have

0:16:58.000 --> 0:17:01.520
<v Speaker 10>to turn off their activity, such as tom Ago, the

0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:05.000
<v Speaker 10>big aluminium smelter, which is the greatest user about in

0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:05.520
<v Speaker 10>the country.

0:17:06.320 --> 0:17:06.920
<v Speaker 3>It will mean.

0:17:07.200 --> 0:17:10.000
<v Speaker 10>And then watch out if you've got a smart meter,

0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:11.240
<v Speaker 10>because then the.

0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:13.840
<v Speaker 2>Government's productivity are impact on the economy.

0:17:14.000 --> 0:17:17.200
<v Speaker 10>Yep, but watch out personally if you've got a smart meter,

0:17:17.760 --> 0:17:20.440
<v Speaker 10>the government ultimately can turn your power off. Oh wow,

0:17:20.520 --> 0:17:22.560
<v Speaker 10>if you haven't got a smart meter, that guy.

0:17:22.840 --> 0:17:24.720
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, well most people don't, Caleb.

0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:28.040
<v Speaker 2>I heard Paul Murray last night on air say that

0:17:28.080 --> 0:17:29.959
<v Speaker 2>he goes around the house this is to keep his

0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:32.000
<v Speaker 2>power bill down, turning off the lights.

0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:34.800
<v Speaker 3>And I think it's funny because my husband does. I'm

0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:35.800
<v Speaker 3>always turning lights on.

0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:38.199
<v Speaker 2>He's always turning the lights off, you know, because everyone's

0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:39.480
<v Speaker 2>very worried about the power bill.

0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:42.960
<v Speaker 3>Maybe it's a gender thing. Caleb, Well, I don't know.

0:17:43.480 --> 0:17:46.359
<v Speaker 11>I mean my mother and father were both fastidious about

0:17:46.400 --> 0:17:48.040
<v Speaker 11>turn the lights off, turn the lights of, and I

0:17:48.320 --> 0:17:50.639
<v Speaker 11>never really understood it as a child who cares I

0:17:50.720 --> 0:17:52.520
<v Speaker 11>wasn't paying the bill. I mean, you know, you think

0:17:52.520 --> 0:17:55.280
<v Speaker 11>money comes out of a wall, right. And it was

0:17:55.359 --> 0:17:59.920
<v Speaker 11>quite funny my girlfriend's young son said recently, because I

0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:03.400
<v Speaker 11>was leaving my rental property and looking for another one, and.

0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:05.040
<v Speaker 1>You just said, why don't you buy a house?

0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:07.879
<v Speaker 11>He said, well, we've got money. I don't just go

0:18:07.920 --> 0:18:09.880
<v Speaker 11>down the bank and get the money, so you don't

0:18:09.920 --> 0:18:12.280
<v Speaker 11>have any content. I do it now though, because you

0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:14.320
<v Speaker 11>know I've got to pay the bill, right. But the

0:18:14.359 --> 0:18:17.320
<v Speaker 11>point on when you made about the coulified powerstations and

0:18:17.359 --> 0:18:20.679
<v Speaker 11>the maintenance is the number one thing here, because, of course,

0:18:20.880 --> 0:18:23.400
<v Speaker 11>all the money the government has spent over at least

0:18:23.440 --> 0:18:26.640
<v Speaker 11>the last decade has gone into renewables. So if you're

0:18:26.680 --> 0:18:29.680
<v Speaker 11>an agl or in origin or whoever it seems to be,

0:18:29.800 --> 0:18:31.960
<v Speaker 11>or whoever it happens to be, who owns a coulifired

0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:35.280
<v Speaker 11>power station, why would you be investing in a form

0:18:35.320 --> 0:18:37.760
<v Speaker 11>of power that the government wants you to turn off

0:18:37.760 --> 0:18:39.760
<v Speaker 11>within the next decade when you can get all the

0:18:39.760 --> 0:18:42.720
<v Speaker 11>money out of them to go and build renewables. Therefore,

0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:46.040
<v Speaker 11>the coli fired power generators we have are degraded. They

0:18:46.040 --> 0:18:48.600
<v Speaker 11>have been for some time. Every time this has happened,

0:18:48.600 --> 0:18:51.560
<v Speaker 11>it's been because they're down for maintenance. And we supposedly

0:18:51.600 --> 0:18:53.600
<v Speaker 11>live in a first world country. Now we've got to know,

0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:56.040
<v Speaker 11>don't have the air conditioner down so low because it's

0:18:56.119 --> 0:18:57.359
<v Speaker 11>bad you run out of power.

0:18:57.440 --> 0:18:57.800
<v Speaker 1>Please.

0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:02.439
<v Speaker 10>I just remember being an international conference and talking to

0:19:02.480 --> 0:19:06.120
<v Speaker 10>someone from an African country. I'll just say I won't

0:19:06.200 --> 0:19:08.399
<v Speaker 10>name it. And he looked at me and he said,

0:19:08.680 --> 0:19:11.639
<v Speaker 10>how on earth can we prosper when in the entire

0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:16.560
<v Speaker 10>country we only have one power generating plant? He said,

0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:21.640
<v Speaker 10>the real prosperity for my country will only come when

0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:25.119
<v Speaker 10>we've got power like you've got now. It's not going

0:19:25.160 --> 0:19:27.280
<v Speaker 10>to come from wind farms. It's not going to come

0:19:27.320 --> 0:19:28.520
<v Speaker 10>from panels of glass.

0:19:28.960 --> 0:19:29.560
<v Speaker 3>It's going to.

0:19:29.520 --> 0:19:35.880
<v Speaker 10>Come from nuclear or coal and or gas. And until

0:19:36.840 --> 0:19:41.440
<v Speaker 10>people recognize this fact and say we've been wrong, we've

0:19:41.480 --> 0:19:45.359
<v Speaker 10>woken up. We're no longer woke, we're awakened. We're really

0:19:45.400 --> 0:19:48.400
<v Speaker 10>going to see what's happening. We are on a trajectory

0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:53.600
<v Speaker 10>to actually seeing my granddaughter inheriting a very poor stand

0:19:53.640 --> 0:19:55.960
<v Speaker 10>of living, and I'm not prepared to stand by and

0:19:56.040 --> 0:19:56.639
<v Speaker 10>let that happen.

0:19:57.119 --> 0:19:58.200
<v Speaker 3>Well, good on you, Bronwan.

0:19:58.240 --> 0:20:00.840
<v Speaker 2>You're here and you're still fighting, and appreciate it.

0:20:01.840 --> 0:20:03.040
<v Speaker 3>Now let's turn to Donald Trump.

0:20:03.080 --> 0:20:05.840
<v Speaker 2>He's threatened to raise tariffs by an extra ten percent

0:20:05.880 --> 0:20:08.760
<v Speaker 2>on all Chinese goods coming into the US. He also

0:20:08.800 --> 0:20:12.159
<v Speaker 2>said he'll charge Mexico and Canada a twenty five percent

0:20:12.280 --> 0:20:16.560
<v Speaker 2>tariff on all products coming into the US. He described,

0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:19.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, ridiculous open borders. That's that's his language in

0:20:19.560 --> 0:20:20.679
<v Speaker 2>his social media post.

0:20:21.600 --> 0:20:24.639
<v Speaker 3>Caleb, Look, these are threats.

0:20:25.640 --> 0:20:29.880
<v Speaker 2>The threats could have the intended consequences without him actually

0:20:29.920 --> 0:20:31.680
<v Speaker 2>having to impose the tariffs.

0:20:31.840 --> 0:20:33.760
<v Speaker 11>What do you think, Well, I mean that that's obviously

0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:36.280
<v Speaker 11>what he's playing. And I mean he's alleging that China

0:20:36.320 --> 0:20:38.680
<v Speaker 11>hasn't done enough to stop the flow of fentanel into

0:20:38.920 --> 0:20:42.080
<v Speaker 11>the United States. The same goes for Mexico, of course,

0:20:42.160 --> 0:20:44.639
<v Speaker 11>not to speak for all the illegal immigrants who flow

0:20:44.680 --> 0:20:47.320
<v Speaker 11>over the border. There is no reason that Trump should

0:20:47.320 --> 0:20:49.440
<v Speaker 11>not be able to say, well, I'm going to slap

0:20:49.480 --> 0:20:52.320
<v Speaker 11>these tariffs on you if you don't play ball with us,

0:20:52.320 --> 0:20:55.199
<v Speaker 11>because of course China did exactly the same thing to

0:20:55.320 --> 0:20:57.360
<v Speaker 11>us when we stood up to them. I mean, they

0:20:57.400 --> 0:21:00.640
<v Speaker 11>did put the tariffs in, some of which still there.

0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:03.520
<v Speaker 11>I mean the shellfish. What are we still talking about

0:21:03.560 --> 0:21:06.520
<v Speaker 11>that one? Three times that's been announced and still nothing

0:21:06.600 --> 0:21:09.399
<v Speaker 11>has happened. So yes, I get the argument that it

0:21:09.440 --> 0:21:14.120
<v Speaker 11>could be economically detrimental to consumers in the United States.

0:21:13.960 --> 0:21:15.000
<v Speaker 3>To have tariffs.

0:21:15.160 --> 0:21:17.000
<v Speaker 11>But if China is going to play the game of

0:21:17.040 --> 0:21:19.960
<v Speaker 11>slapping tariffs on other people, why shouldn't we play the

0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:20.879
<v Speaker 11>same game back to them?

0:21:21.520 --> 0:21:24.240
<v Speaker 2>All right, Caylebond, brom A, Bishop, we are out of time.

0:21:24.119 --> 0:21:27.480
<v Speaker 3>So great to see both of you. Thank you. Now.

0:21:27.520 --> 0:21:30.560
<v Speaker 2>As I mentioned Donald Trump's new White House team, it's

0:21:30.680 --> 0:21:35.240
<v Speaker 2>fast taking shape, and one of the President Elect's latest appointments,

0:21:35.400 --> 0:21:39.760
<v Speaker 2>Sebastian Gorka will be the director for counter Terrorism. Gowker

0:21:39.880 --> 0:21:43.399
<v Speaker 2>was part of Donald Trump's first administration. He's a former

0:21:43.440 --> 0:21:47.359
<v Speaker 2>military and intelligence analyst. He's an author, and in recent

0:21:47.440 --> 0:21:51.400
<v Speaker 2>times he's been a conservative television host and now he'll

0:21:51.440 --> 0:21:55.240
<v Speaker 2>play a critical national security role in the White House.

0:21:55.600 --> 0:21:58.560
<v Speaker 2>And he joined me for an exclusive interview a little

0:21:58.640 --> 0:22:04.040
<v Speaker 2>earlier Sebastian Gorka, congratulations and your appointment. You've been given

0:22:04.040 --> 0:22:07.679
<v Speaker 2>the task by Trump of combating terrorism. What do you

0:22:07.760 --> 0:22:10.919
<v Speaker 2>think are the current greatest terror threats to the Western world?

0:22:11.800 --> 0:22:13.520
<v Speaker 4>Well, thank you for having me. I'm a big fan

0:22:13.560 --> 0:22:16.200
<v Speaker 4>of yours. We follow you closely here on the other

0:22:16.240 --> 0:22:20.280
<v Speaker 4>side of the world. The resurgence of global jihadism. People

0:22:20.400 --> 0:22:23.600
<v Speaker 4>think that it went away, but it didn't. With the

0:22:23.800 --> 0:22:28.600
<v Speaker 4>surrender of Afghanistan, the disgraceful surrender of Afghanistan by Joe Biden,

0:22:29.000 --> 0:22:32.080
<v Speaker 4>by Lloyd Austin, his Secretary of Defense, we have a

0:22:32.200 --> 0:22:37.679
<v Speaker 4>new hub of jihadism. We left eighty well just eighty

0:22:37.720 --> 0:22:41.560
<v Speaker 4>three billion dollars worth of weapons for the Taliban Al

0:22:41.680 --> 0:22:45.080
<v Speaker 4>Qaeda Is resurgent. ISIS is still out there, whether it's

0:22:45.119 --> 0:22:48.280
<v Speaker 4>the Huthis or whether it's the numerous proxies of Iran

0:22:48.560 --> 0:22:49.600
<v Speaker 4>Bolla a Hamas.

0:22:50.000 --> 0:22:52.120
<v Speaker 1>The threat is as great as it's ever been.

0:22:52.200 --> 0:22:55.000
<v Speaker 4>And so that's why we need President Trump his National

0:22:55.000 --> 0:22:57.600
<v Speaker 4>Security advisor Mike Waltz back in the White House, and

0:22:57.640 --> 0:22:59.000
<v Speaker 4>we have a lot of work to do.

0:22:59.320 --> 0:23:02.120
<v Speaker 1>Come twelve on January the twentieth, in the.

0:23:02.080 --> 0:23:05.160
<v Speaker 2>Face of this growing terror threat as you've just defined it,

0:23:05.160 --> 0:23:09.080
<v Speaker 2>it is extensive. We've also seen thousands of, let's face it,

0:23:09.200 --> 0:23:12.640
<v Speaker 2>terror supporters marching on the street absurdly in the name

0:23:12.680 --> 0:23:16.119
<v Speaker 2>of peace. How do you think said that Western leaders

0:23:16.160 --> 0:23:18.600
<v Speaker 2>internationally have responded to this.

0:23:19.400 --> 0:23:21.560
<v Speaker 4>Well, in some cases they've just stuck their head in

0:23:21.680 --> 0:23:25.239
<v Speaker 4>the sand, and in other cases they have thought that

0:23:25.280 --> 0:23:27.520
<v Speaker 4>they can deal with this threat with some kind of

0:23:27.840 --> 0:23:30.960
<v Speaker 4>political negotiation or some kind of economic aid.

0:23:31.800 --> 0:23:33.080
<v Speaker 1>But they're wrong. They're wrong.

0:23:33.280 --> 0:23:37.600
<v Speaker 4>I've spent thirty years teaching the strategy the ideology of

0:23:37.600 --> 0:23:41.199
<v Speaker 4>the Jihani movement from the Ikuan, the Muslim Brotherhood on

0:23:41.320 --> 0:23:44.359
<v Speaker 4>down through al Qaeda and through Isis. Today we have

0:23:44.440 --> 0:23:47.399
<v Speaker 4>to understand that this is a war between the civilized world,

0:23:47.680 --> 0:23:50.760
<v Speaker 4>the Judeo Christian West, the greatest civilization the war has

0:23:50.800 --> 0:23:54.560
<v Speaker 4>ever seen, and the barbarians, those who wish to destroy

0:23:54.640 --> 0:23:58.200
<v Speaker 4>our civilization. Whether it's those responsible for nine to eleven,

0:23:58.480 --> 0:24:01.640
<v Speaker 4>whether it's those responsible for the heenous attacks on October

0:24:01.640 --> 0:24:05.920
<v Speaker 4>the seventh in Israel where women and children and unarmed

0:24:05.920 --> 0:24:09.280
<v Speaker 4>men were targeted. This is a war to the death

0:24:09.320 --> 0:24:13.119
<v Speaker 4>where only one side can win. The forces of light

0:24:13.440 --> 0:24:17.080
<v Speaker 4>and goodness or those who really are working for the

0:24:17.080 --> 0:24:18.560
<v Speaker 4>destruction of our civilization.

0:24:19.280 --> 0:24:20.480
<v Speaker 3>That's so well put in.

0:24:20.720 --> 0:24:23.359
<v Speaker 2>I'd go further and say that some international leaders have

0:24:23.440 --> 0:24:29.239
<v Speaker 2>been utterly weak. They've been ineffective, hopeless, and probably have enabled.

0:24:28.720 --> 0:24:29.960
<v Speaker 3>The terror threat to grow.

0:24:30.359 --> 0:24:32.480
<v Speaker 2>And that's not to mention the billions of dollars the

0:24:32.480 --> 0:24:36.280
<v Speaker 2>Biden administration gave to Iran and then the other international

0:24:36.400 --> 0:24:39.560
<v Speaker 2>leaders calling for a cease fire instead of showing strength

0:24:39.560 --> 0:24:40.520
<v Speaker 2>and solidarity.

0:24:40.880 --> 0:24:42.280
<v Speaker 3>Well, what's your response to this?

0:24:44.400 --> 0:24:49.679
<v Speaker 4>I can completely concur when you're giving literally billions of dollars,

0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:54.040
<v Speaker 4>as the Biden administration did to those who preach every

0:24:54.160 --> 0:24:59.920
<v Speaker 4>Friday from the Muller's pulpits death to the West, that's suicide.

0:25:00.080 --> 0:25:04.040
<v Speaker 4>That's share insanity. When you think that you can negotiate

0:25:04.119 --> 0:25:07.320
<v Speaker 4>with people who call for the death of every Christian

0:25:07.359 --> 0:25:13.200
<v Speaker 4>and every Jew, that is it's just political suicide, it's

0:25:13.200 --> 0:25:14.680
<v Speaker 4>civilizational suicide.

0:25:14.840 --> 0:25:16.680
<v Speaker 1>So yes, we need leadership.

0:25:16.720 --> 0:25:19.240
<v Speaker 4>And the good news is when President Trump, my former boss,

0:25:19.240 --> 0:25:22.600
<v Speaker 4>and God willing, my future boss, gets behind that resolute desk,

0:25:23.240 --> 0:25:26.880
<v Speaker 4>every nation in the world will have a decision to make.

0:25:27.040 --> 0:25:30.560
<v Speaker 4>Do you stand with those who are taking the fight

0:25:30.840 --> 0:25:34.560
<v Speaker 4>to the Jihades, to the terrorists, to the evildoers, or

0:25:34.600 --> 0:25:37.320
<v Speaker 4>do you stand with those who are trying to destroy

0:25:37.400 --> 0:25:40.440
<v Speaker 4>our civilization. It will be a stark choice. But as

0:25:40.440 --> 0:25:41.960
<v Speaker 4>I said when I was in the White House the

0:25:41.960 --> 0:25:44.720
<v Speaker 4>first time, borrowing a phrase from the Marine Corps, my

0:25:44.760 --> 0:25:49.679
<v Speaker 4>beloved devil dogs, it's very simple, America, no better friend,

0:25:50.160 --> 0:25:52.439
<v Speaker 4>no worse enemy, and there will be a time for

0:25:52.520 --> 0:25:54.639
<v Speaker 4>choosing for all the nations of the world.

0:25:54.720 --> 0:25:57.840
<v Speaker 1>Do you stand with us or do you stand with

0:25:57.920 --> 0:25:58.639
<v Speaker 1>the Jihades?

0:26:00.080 --> 0:26:01.040
<v Speaker 3>Very strong words.

0:26:01.280 --> 0:26:03.639
<v Speaker 2>Well, in light of this, and I understand you've just

0:26:03.720 --> 0:26:06.320
<v Speaker 2>been appointed and this is one of your first interviews,

0:26:06.800 --> 0:26:09.920
<v Speaker 2>but the President has been clear he won't tolerate terror

0:26:09.960 --> 0:26:12.280
<v Speaker 2>support as remaining in the United States.

0:26:13.040 --> 0:26:16.040
<v Speaker 3>What will you do to stop homegrown terror?

0:26:16.840 --> 0:26:20.600
<v Speaker 4>We have a domestic threat as well, when you side

0:26:21.240 --> 0:26:24.399
<v Speaker 4>with those who are calling for the extermination of Israel

0:26:24.400 --> 0:26:25.480
<v Speaker 4>from the River to the SEU.

0:26:25.640 --> 0:26:28.360
<v Speaker 1>When we have people who are, let's put it.

0:26:28.320 --> 0:26:32.560
<v Speaker 4>Mildly or diplomatically useful, idiots or worse working for the

0:26:32.600 --> 0:26:36.240
<v Speaker 4>Iranian regime inside very sensitive positions in the US government

0:26:36.560 --> 0:26:39.160
<v Speaker 4>that cannot be allowed to stand.

0:26:39.280 --> 0:26:43.280
<v Speaker 1>So, yes, we have lots of plans, my friend.

0:26:43.400 --> 0:26:46.239
<v Speaker 4>But it would be impolitic and improper for me to

0:26:46.280 --> 0:26:47.600
<v Speaker 4>reveal any of them right.

0:26:47.480 --> 0:26:51.680
<v Speaker 2>Now, understood, Well, I might ask you about a couple

0:26:51.720 --> 0:26:54.560
<v Speaker 2>of things that Australia has done of late. The Albanezi

0:26:54.600 --> 0:26:59.520
<v Speaker 2>government issuing nearly three thousand visas to Gazans since October seven,

0:27:00.000 --> 0:27:00.760
<v Speaker 2>twenty three.

0:27:01.680 --> 0:27:03.480
<v Speaker 3>Do you think Australia should be.

0:27:03.440 --> 0:27:07.520
<v Speaker 2>Bringing in Gazans right now, which we're doing virtually more

0:27:07.560 --> 0:27:09.280
<v Speaker 2>than any other country on Earth.

0:27:11.040 --> 0:27:14.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, the question is who are they and can you verifine?

0:27:14.480 --> 0:27:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Can you vet them? If you can't, that's a problem.

0:27:17.640 --> 0:27:21.000
<v Speaker 4>So this is why we had the travel moratorium at

0:27:21.000 --> 0:27:23.600
<v Speaker 4>the very beginning of the first Trump administration, because we

0:27:23.680 --> 0:27:27.680
<v Speaker 4>had seven nations who could not verify the identity of

0:27:27.720 --> 0:27:30.240
<v Speaker 4>the people coming to America and who couldn't tell us

0:27:30.320 --> 0:27:32.800
<v Speaker 4>that they were not a threat or they were safe.

0:27:32.840 --> 0:27:36.000
<v Speaker 4>So here's the question that all Australians and the current

0:27:36.040 --> 0:27:42.440
<v Speaker 4>government needs to consider when reliable polling data since October seventh,

0:27:42.600 --> 0:27:46.240
<v Speaker 4>the massacre of the innocence, and I've watched the unedited

0:27:46.320 --> 0:27:50.240
<v Speaker 4>video from Hamas, the forty seven minute unedited video of

0:27:50.320 --> 0:27:53.760
<v Speaker 4>the slaughter of men, women and children. Every decision maker

0:27:54.440 --> 0:27:58.000
<v Speaker 4>needs to see that when you know that more than

0:27:58.200 --> 0:28:02.919
<v Speaker 4>seventy five percent of the population of Gaza in recent

0:28:02.960 --> 0:28:07.679
<v Speaker 4>polling agreed with what happened to those innocent Jews on

0:28:07.720 --> 0:28:11.520
<v Speaker 4>October the seventh. The question is are the people coming

0:28:11.560 --> 0:28:14.080
<v Speaker 4>to your nation or to any free nation.

0:28:14.040 --> 0:28:14.639
<v Speaker 1>In the West.

0:28:15.240 --> 0:28:18.399
<v Speaker 4>Are they in support of the slaughter of innocence or

0:28:18.440 --> 0:28:22.199
<v Speaker 4>are they trying to escape the hellhole that is the

0:28:22.240 --> 0:28:26.080
<v Speaker 4>Palestinian quote unquote gas and territories. If they're trying to

0:28:26.240 --> 0:28:29.840
<v Speaker 4>escape it, that's one thing. If they believe in Australia,

0:28:29.880 --> 0:28:32.600
<v Speaker 4>if they believe in your value system, that's great.

0:28:33.080 --> 0:28:34.600
<v Speaker 1>But what if they are part of the.

0:28:34.680 --> 0:28:37.840
<v Speaker 4>Seventy five percent who say the slaughter of the innocence

0:28:37.920 --> 0:28:41.600
<v Speaker 4>is justified. That's the question that your nation and every

0:28:41.760 --> 0:28:43.920
<v Speaker 4>decent nation needs to answer for themselves.

0:28:44.800 --> 0:28:47.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and that's the security risk that we've been concerned about.

0:28:48.520 --> 0:28:51.920
<v Speaker 2>The Albenze government continues to fund UNRA, sending millions of

0:28:52.000 --> 0:28:56.280
<v Speaker 2>taxpayer dollars to the organization, despite its proven terror links.

0:28:56.520 --> 0:28:59.480
<v Speaker 2>What would your message be to the Albanese government on.

0:28:59.440 --> 0:29:05.000
<v Speaker 4>This, Well, it is not my position to message the

0:29:05.040 --> 0:29:06.160
<v Speaker 4>Australian government.

0:29:06.480 --> 0:29:08.440
<v Speaker 1>I will just say to anyone who's.

0:29:08.200 --> 0:29:12.240
<v Speaker 4>Considering the utility or the mandate of the United Nations,

0:29:12.760 --> 0:29:16.000
<v Speaker 4>which conflicts have they prevented and when they have deployed

0:29:16.440 --> 0:29:19.040
<v Speaker 4>conflict zones, including in Africa.

0:29:18.560 --> 0:29:20.960
<v Speaker 1>How much of what they did actually made it worse?

0:29:21.040 --> 0:29:24.920
<v Speaker 4>We know all about the child prostitution rings, the abuse

0:29:25.000 --> 0:29:29.200
<v Speaker 4>of children in Africa by so called blue helmeted UN troops.

0:29:29.920 --> 0:29:32.240
<v Speaker 4>What does that do to the legitimacy of the entity?

0:29:32.640 --> 0:29:35.880
<v Speaker 4>And now we have you know, anybody can fact check me.

0:29:35.960 --> 0:29:39.640
<v Speaker 4>Here we have people who are working for UNRA, the

0:29:39.760 --> 0:29:45.360
<v Speaker 4>United Nations aid agency in the Middle East, who participated

0:29:45.400 --> 0:29:50.479
<v Speaker 4>willingly in the savage, diabolical attack of October the seventh.

0:29:50.520 --> 0:29:52.720
<v Speaker 1>So ask yourself a question, should.

0:29:52.480 --> 0:29:56.040
<v Speaker 4>Your nation, Should any nation that believes in decency be

0:29:56.160 --> 0:30:01.440
<v Speaker 4>funding and supporting an entity whose employees were a part

0:30:01.920 --> 0:30:05.560
<v Speaker 4>of the greatest massacre of the Jewish people since the

0:30:05.680 --> 0:30:09.160
<v Speaker 4>cessation of hostilities in nineteen forty five and the end

0:30:09.200 --> 0:30:11.680
<v Speaker 4>of the show of the Holocaust. I think the answer

0:30:11.760 --> 0:30:14.000
<v Speaker 4>to that question is rather obvious.

0:30:14.240 --> 0:30:17.280
<v Speaker 2>Sebastian Goka, good luck combating terrorism in your new role.

0:30:17.320 --> 0:30:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Thank you very much for your time, and I hope

0:30:19.400 --> 0:30:21.600
<v Speaker 2>to see you again on this program soon.

0:30:21.800 --> 0:30:24.240
<v Speaker 1>God bless you. The pleasure was mine.

0:30:25.480 --> 0:30:28.400
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's easy to see how Trump's national security team

0:30:28.720 --> 0:30:31.720
<v Speaker 2>is going to be pretty unimpressed with the approach taken

0:30:31.800 --> 0:30:36.840
<v Speaker 2>by alban Easy and his lackluster team. Well still to come.

0:30:37.000 --> 0:30:39.920
<v Speaker 2>Could this be the Albenzi government's last sitting week before

0:30:39.960 --> 0:30:44.200
<v Speaker 2>the next election. Cameron Milner has some big views on

0:30:44.200 --> 0:30:47.280
<v Speaker 2>this his political insights coming up plass an interview with

0:30:47.320 --> 0:30:51.200
<v Speaker 2>the former Israeli minister who was blocked from entering our

0:30:51.280 --> 0:30:55.920
<v Speaker 2>country then ghosted by Tony Burke. Alette Shaked would join

0:30:56.000 --> 0:30:59.800
<v Speaker 2>me live from Israel for that exclusive interview right.

0:30:59.640 --> 0:31:08.240
<v Speaker 3>After this quick break welcome back.

0:31:08.600 --> 0:31:12.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, clearly the Albanezi government has decided to drop any

0:31:12.440 --> 0:31:18.000
<v Speaker 2>remaining shreds of pretense of maintaining good relations with Israel, because,

0:31:18.040 --> 0:31:21.440
<v Speaker 2>as we've been speaking about it refused to issue a

0:31:21.560 --> 0:31:26.920
<v Speaker 2>visa to an upstanding Israeli citizen, a former Israeli government minister.

0:31:27.680 --> 0:31:28.760
<v Speaker 3>Now, I let Shakhad.

0:31:29.080 --> 0:31:32.640
<v Speaker 2>She may not be welcome into Australia under Anthony Albanizi,

0:31:33.160 --> 0:31:36.360
<v Speaker 2>but she is and will always be welcome onto Sky News,

0:31:36.400 --> 0:31:38.680
<v Speaker 2>and I'm pleased to say I let joins me now

0:31:38.960 --> 0:31:41.320
<v Speaker 2>lie from Israel in her first interview.

0:31:40.960 --> 0:31:42.280
<v Speaker 3>I let welcome.

0:31:42.840 --> 0:31:45.680
<v Speaker 2>I feel ashamed this is our government and I'm sure

0:31:45.720 --> 0:31:48.080
<v Speaker 2>all of my viewers would be feeling the same.

0:31:48.760 --> 0:31:50.920
<v Speaker 3>Can you tell us your reaction when you.

0:31:50.960 --> 0:31:54.040
<v Speaker 2>Received the letter saying that your visa was going to

0:31:54.040 --> 0:31:54.720
<v Speaker 2>be refused?

0:31:57.440 --> 0:31:58.560
<v Speaker 13>Sheila, I was shocked.

0:31:58.600 --> 0:32:01.840
<v Speaker 14>You know, I've been told that this specific government is

0:32:01.960 --> 0:32:05.640
<v Speaker 14>very radical and proper Estinian government, but I never thought

0:32:06.160 --> 0:32:09.120
<v Speaker 14>that they will take such such a decision. You know,

0:32:09.320 --> 0:32:12.840
<v Speaker 14>I was the Minister of Interior as well. I would

0:32:12.880 --> 0:32:17.960
<v Speaker 14>never thought to refuse a visa to a formal official

0:32:18.040 --> 0:32:22.360
<v Speaker 14>of my allies. You know, it's such an undemocratic decision.

0:32:23.080 --> 0:32:27.040
<v Speaker 14>I think your Minister of Interior should be shame of himself.

0:32:27.520 --> 0:32:33.280
<v Speaker 14>That is just trying, you know, to impress radical Muslim

0:32:33.400 --> 0:32:38.120
<v Speaker 14>minority and instead, you know, it's hurting the feeling of

0:32:38.160 --> 0:32:41.959
<v Speaker 14>the Jewish community in Israel and the relationship with Israel.

0:32:42.560 --> 0:32:44.640
<v Speaker 13>You know, I spoke with.

0:32:44.680 --> 0:32:48.040
<v Speaker 14>The Minister of Foreign Affairs in Israel and with the ambassador,

0:32:48.720 --> 0:32:53.640
<v Speaker 14>and definitely there will be consequences to this brutal act.

0:32:55.000 --> 0:32:57.280
<v Speaker 2>That's breaking news that I let what do you mean

0:32:57.320 --> 0:33:00.720
<v Speaker 2>by consequences? So the Foreign Minister in Israel, Giddi inside,

0:33:00.800 --> 0:33:03.480
<v Speaker 2>he's well across this situation. I reported at the start

0:33:03.520 --> 0:33:05.840
<v Speaker 2>of the show that he is very angry about it.

0:33:06.240 --> 0:33:10.280
<v Speaker 2>What ramifications or consequences will they be for Australia.

0:33:12.320 --> 0:33:15.640
<v Speaker 14>Let's wait for the ambassador and for the Minister of

0:33:15.760 --> 0:33:18.960
<v Speaker 14>an Affairs.

0:33:17.520 --> 0:33:18.840
<v Speaker 13>To act and to react.

0:33:19.320 --> 0:33:22.280
<v Speaker 14>But I can tell you, you know, it's not that

0:33:22.360 --> 0:33:25.280
<v Speaker 14>they refuse to give me a visa. It's just that

0:33:25.400 --> 0:33:31.880
<v Speaker 14>this government became anti Semitic on October seven, the Hamas Lounge,

0:33:32.240 --> 0:33:36.600
<v Speaker 14>a genocidal, barbaric attack on Israel. And you know, before

0:33:36.600 --> 0:33:40.600
<v Speaker 14>October seventh, I visited Australia. I have family there with

0:33:40.680 --> 0:33:44.280
<v Speaker 14>my beloved aunt and cousins. They are living in Sydney,

0:33:44.760 --> 0:33:47.560
<v Speaker 14>and I visit the Jewish community in Australia.

0:33:47.600 --> 0:33:51.440
<v Speaker 13>We have amazing Zionists Jewish community in Australia.

0:33:52.120 --> 0:33:57.200
<v Speaker 14>And suddenly after October seventh, they changed their mind. So

0:33:57.240 --> 0:34:01.880
<v Speaker 14>I think it's just a disc it's just a shameful

0:34:02.040 --> 0:34:06.560
<v Speaker 14>and disgraceful decision, and it will be just you know,

0:34:07.040 --> 0:34:12.000
<v Speaker 14>a black anacdote on this government and on the history

0:34:12.040 --> 0:34:15.160
<v Speaker 14>of the relationship between the two countries. But I fully

0:34:15.200 --> 0:34:19.839
<v Speaker 14>believe that Israel and Australia are very good allies and

0:34:19.880 --> 0:34:22.120
<v Speaker 14>it doesn't matter what the government.

0:34:21.719 --> 0:34:23.200
<v Speaker 13>Is right now in Australia.

0:34:23.239 --> 0:34:25.520
<v Speaker 14>And I hope of course that next to you you

0:34:25.520 --> 0:34:27.719
<v Speaker 14>would ever knew a government and I will be able

0:34:27.760 --> 0:34:28.600
<v Speaker 14>to come and visit you.

0:34:29.280 --> 0:34:32.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, certainly hope you will be able to come and

0:34:32.480 --> 0:34:35.080
<v Speaker 2>visit us again, because it's absurd that, as you said,

0:34:35.360 --> 0:34:38.000
<v Speaker 2>you were able to come in March last year and

0:34:38.120 --> 0:34:42.000
<v Speaker 2>visit your family here in Australia. Nothing's changed since then

0:34:42.200 --> 0:34:46.640
<v Speaker 2>except for October seven, an attack by Hamas on Israel.

0:34:47.040 --> 0:34:50.120
<v Speaker 2>Now I understand that Tony Burke actually sent a second

0:34:50.239 --> 0:34:53.200
<v Speaker 2>letter to you where he told you that he was

0:34:53.239 --> 0:34:56.399
<v Speaker 2>going to review this decision, but then he never got

0:34:56.400 --> 0:34:59.239
<v Speaker 2>back to you. I mean we call that ghosting. He

0:34:59.400 --> 0:35:01.360
<v Speaker 2>just never got back to you and you were sitting

0:35:01.400 --> 0:35:04.000
<v Speaker 2>there waiting to hear. Yeah, tell us.

0:35:04.160 --> 0:35:06.520
<v Speaker 13>Yes. So it got back to me this morning and

0:35:07.640 --> 0:35:11.880
<v Speaker 13>it's still refused to give me a visa.

0:35:12.640 --> 0:35:16.200
<v Speaker 14>It doesn't really matter because the conference is about to

0:35:16.280 --> 0:35:19.440
<v Speaker 14>finish in two days, so I can't come anyway, but

0:35:19.560 --> 0:35:24.000
<v Speaker 14>it's still refusing and as I'm saying, it's just, you know,

0:35:24.600 --> 0:35:26.280
<v Speaker 14>undemocratic decision.

0:35:27.040 --> 0:35:28.640
<v Speaker 13>I represented Israel.

0:35:28.719 --> 0:35:32.680
<v Speaker 14>I was Minister of Justice and Minister of Interior exactly

0:35:32.800 --> 0:35:36.200
<v Speaker 14>like himself, and I would have never done such a

0:35:36.239 --> 0:35:40.200
<v Speaker 14>thing to my ally and I think, you know, it's

0:35:40.320 --> 0:35:44.920
<v Speaker 14>just he needs to give answer to the Jewish community

0:35:44.960 --> 0:35:47.800
<v Speaker 14>in Australia about this brutal act.

0:35:48.320 --> 0:35:51.680
<v Speaker 13>And I think that, you know, in the basic issue

0:35:51.719 --> 0:35:52.680
<v Speaker 13>is that they.

0:35:52.680 --> 0:35:59.080
<v Speaker 14>Just don't distinguish between good and evil. Israel is fighting

0:35:59.400 --> 0:36:02.400
<v Speaker 14>for a lot. You know, we are fighting in like

0:36:02.640 --> 0:36:08.080
<v Speaker 14>seven frontis against stero organization in the south and in

0:36:08.120 --> 0:36:14.000
<v Speaker 14>the north, this sterile organization Hamas slaughtered our families, burned

0:36:14.040 --> 0:36:16.759
<v Speaker 14>our babies, raped our women.

0:36:16.920 --> 0:36:18.480
<v Speaker 13>Decapitated soldiers.

0:36:19.000 --> 0:36:23.040
<v Speaker 14>And instead of you know, I think that the Democratic

0:36:23.160 --> 0:36:27.440
<v Speaker 14>allies should stand with Israel and say we support Israel

0:36:27.480 --> 0:36:30.840
<v Speaker 14>as a democratic state, we support its right to defend

0:36:30.880 --> 0:36:34.600
<v Speaker 14>itself exactly like the US, and they'll just choose the

0:36:34.640 --> 0:36:36.680
<v Speaker 14>wrong side of the history.

0:36:37.160 --> 0:36:39.799
<v Speaker 2>Now, they blocked you from coming island, but at the

0:36:39.800 --> 0:36:45.320
<v Speaker 2>same time, this Albanesi government rushed through nearly three thousand

0:36:45.640 --> 0:36:50.520
<v Speaker 2>visas for Palestinians from Gaza without proper security vetting.

0:36:50.560 --> 0:36:52.360
<v Speaker 3>We didn't have anyone on the ground.

0:36:52.880 --> 0:36:56.160
<v Speaker 2>I mean, this is an extreme case of moral confusion,

0:36:56.200 --> 0:36:56.600
<v Speaker 2>isn't it.

0:36:58.600 --> 0:37:03.560
<v Speaker 14>Definitely the Australian people will just you know, allow his

0:37:03.800 --> 0:37:08.400
<v Speaker 14>voice and change this government in the current election. Instead

0:37:08.440 --> 0:37:12.279
<v Speaker 14>of giving full support to Israel. They're just you know,

0:37:12.440 --> 0:37:16.640
<v Speaker 14>betrayed our relationship and give just full support for the

0:37:16.680 --> 0:37:21.960
<v Speaker 14>Palestinian They are looking on one side and distort their reality.

0:37:22.320 --> 0:37:24.759
<v Speaker 3>It's an embarrassment to all of us.

0:37:24.800 --> 0:37:27.920
<v Speaker 2>Here Isila shakhad As I said, you're always welcome on

0:37:27.960 --> 0:37:28.400
<v Speaker 2>the show.

0:37:28.640 --> 0:37:31.839
<v Speaker 3>Thank you very much for joining us and speaking much.

0:37:33.239 --> 0:37:35.120
<v Speaker 3>It's just appalling, isn't it.

0:37:35.440 --> 0:37:40.800
<v Speaker 2>This isn't how you treat an ally having an existential fight,

0:37:40.920 --> 0:37:47.120
<v Speaker 2>trying to fight for its very survival. Coming up after

0:37:47.160 --> 0:37:50.680
<v Speaker 2>the break, speculation is mounting that the PM may call

0:37:51.040 --> 0:37:54.279
<v Speaker 2>the election earlier than May. I'll tell you which date.

0:37:54.280 --> 0:37:57.360
<v Speaker 2>The alban Easy government is really looking at. Cameron Milner

0:37:57.400 --> 0:37:59.960
<v Speaker 2>and Liz Burke will join me. Plus the debate over

0:38:00.080 --> 0:38:03.719
<v Speaker 2>Labour's social media ban for kids. More coalition figures are

0:38:03.760 --> 0:38:07.000
<v Speaker 2>vowing to cross the floor. That's coming up after this

0:38:07.160 --> 0:38:07.800
<v Speaker 2>quick break.

0:38:12.520 --> 0:38:13.399
<v Speaker 3>All right, welcome back.

0:38:13.440 --> 0:38:16.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, let's bring in now former Labor State Director and

0:38:16.040 --> 0:38:18.960
<v Speaker 2>Farmer chief of Staff to Bill Sholton, Cameron Milner and

0:38:19.200 --> 0:38:22.480
<v Speaker 2>News dot com Dot Au Deputy editor Liz Burke.

0:38:22.680 --> 0:38:24.520
<v Speaker 3>Great to see both of you. Thank you.

0:38:25.239 --> 0:38:25.359
<v Speaker 1>Well.

0:38:25.400 --> 0:38:28.400
<v Speaker 2>Let's have a look at Labour's social media ban for

0:38:28.520 --> 0:38:32.560
<v Speaker 2>kids now, This was originally a policy that Peter Dutton

0:38:32.600 --> 0:38:36.120
<v Speaker 2>first suggested, but now there are key coalition figures like

0:38:36.200 --> 0:38:40.239
<v Speaker 2>Alexantik and Matt Canavan who are expressing concerns and they

0:38:40.280 --> 0:38:43.080
<v Speaker 2>also say they're not going to vote for the laws.

0:38:43.120 --> 0:38:43.640
<v Speaker 3>Have a look.

0:38:47.000 --> 0:38:49.520
<v Speaker 15>I don't think it should be pasted this week. I

0:38:49.520 --> 0:38:51.920
<v Speaker 15>don't understand the haste here. It is a joke, it

0:38:51.960 --> 0:38:55.680
<v Speaker 15>is an embarrassment and we should pause this, extend the

0:38:55.719 --> 0:38:58.280
<v Speaker 15>inquiry and let's take a bit more time to consider

0:38:58.320 --> 0:38:59.920
<v Speaker 15>this world leading legislation.

0:39:00.040 --> 0:39:00.839
<v Speaker 1>So I don't support it.

0:39:01.440 --> 0:39:04.120
<v Speaker 16>I do think the words banned media should ever be

0:39:04.719 --> 0:39:08.000
<v Speaker 16>in a sentence together. I'm concerned about a whole range

0:39:08.040 --> 0:39:10.640
<v Speaker 16>of issues. The creep is one of them. The powers

0:39:10.680 --> 0:39:12.200
<v Speaker 16>given to the Commissioner.

0:39:13.360 --> 0:39:17.360
<v Speaker 2>Now, the issue of concern Cameron is that everyone would

0:39:17.640 --> 0:39:19.440
<v Speaker 2>need to give a digital idea.

0:39:19.440 --> 0:39:20.560
<v Speaker 3>I'm not saying that's the case.

0:39:20.560 --> 0:39:24.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying that's the concern that figures and people, you know,

0:39:25.160 --> 0:39:27.920
<v Speaker 2>Australians are holding that everyone adults.

0:39:27.520 --> 0:39:29.759
<v Speaker 3>Included, would need to give a digital ID.

0:39:30.719 --> 0:39:34.759
<v Speaker 2>Labor hasn't actually spelled out how these laws would work,

0:39:34.800 --> 0:39:38.000
<v Speaker 2>and that's part of the problem.

0:39:38.360 --> 0:39:40.520
<v Speaker 17>Well, I think the good thing is that there's genuine

0:39:40.560 --> 0:39:43.920
<v Speaker 17>bipartisan support to actually stop this sewer, the sewer that

0:39:44.000 --> 0:39:46.600
<v Speaker 17>is social media out there polluting our young people with

0:39:47.280 --> 0:39:50.720
<v Speaker 17>shameless information. Look, we don't let them take tobacco or smoke,

0:39:50.800 --> 0:39:52.640
<v Speaker 17>or drive a car or get married for for their

0:39:52.719 --> 0:39:55.680
<v Speaker 17>sixteen So I think sixteens are very good and very reasonable,

0:39:55.280 --> 0:39:59.040
<v Speaker 17>sensible decision. So let's work out the detail. But the

0:39:59.040 --> 0:40:01.560
<v Speaker 17>macro is is we've got to turn off this tap.

0:40:01.800 --> 0:40:03.520
<v Speaker 17>We've got to stop the sewer, and we're going to

0:40:03.520 --> 0:40:06.360
<v Speaker 17>stop social media polluting our young people's minds.

0:40:07.160 --> 0:40:10.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Liz, I think most parents, and this is obviously

0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:13.160
<v Speaker 2>Peter Dutton sense because he's backing these lots, most parents

0:40:13.560 --> 0:40:16.719
<v Speaker 2>do want a social media ban for kids. It's very

0:40:16.719 --> 0:40:19.080
<v Speaker 2>hard for them to enforce. But there is at the

0:40:19.120 --> 0:40:22.279
<v Speaker 2>same time growing concern that everyone would have to give

0:40:22.320 --> 0:40:24.000
<v Speaker 2>their identity to use the internet.

0:40:24.320 --> 0:40:26.560
<v Speaker 18>Yeah, that's right, And like you said, there's not heaps

0:40:26.560 --> 0:40:28.360
<v Speaker 18>of detail around that at the moment.

0:40:29.400 --> 0:40:30.920
<v Speaker 3>The Senate Committee.

0:40:30.560 --> 0:40:34.680
<v Speaker 18>Did publish its inquiry its report this evening and there

0:40:34.719 --> 0:40:37.239
<v Speaker 18>is a recommendation in there around the digital ID So

0:40:37.280 --> 0:40:40.760
<v Speaker 18>that's going to force some detail there. I think we'll certainly,

0:40:40.840 --> 0:40:43.279
<v Speaker 18>you know, start to see a bit more of what's

0:40:43.320 --> 0:40:45.560
<v Speaker 18>actually going to be proposed and what could be effective.

0:40:46.960 --> 0:40:50.640
<v Speaker 18>I think though, like you said, it's very popular proposal

0:40:50.719 --> 0:40:53.480
<v Speaker 18>among parents, and a lot of people who support this

0:40:53.640 --> 0:40:55.960
<v Speaker 18>I don't think are really concerned with the detail. Like

0:40:56.000 --> 0:40:58.560
<v Speaker 18>you said, Cameron, it's more about the macro and I

0:40:58.560 --> 0:41:01.040
<v Speaker 18>think there's a rush to get this through. There's both

0:41:01.160 --> 0:41:03.640
<v Speaker 18>a real rush from the government to get a popular

0:41:03.680 --> 0:41:06.359
<v Speaker 18>policy through ahead of an election, and I think there's

0:41:06.360 --> 0:41:09.680
<v Speaker 18>a perceived rush among parents. That's more to do with

0:41:10.080 --> 0:41:13.360
<v Speaker 18>I guess the fleeting nature of youth. I mean, in reality,

0:41:13.719 --> 0:41:16.360
<v Speaker 18>these laws aren't going to be in effect until you know,

0:41:16.440 --> 0:41:19.880
<v Speaker 18>twenty twenty six. They won't actually be able to enforce

0:41:19.920 --> 0:41:23.600
<v Speaker 18>that legislation. But I think there's fear that if it's

0:41:23.600 --> 0:41:27.040
<v Speaker 18>delayed any further, then more and more Australian children are

0:41:27.040 --> 0:41:30.360
<v Speaker 18>going to outgrow these protections. So if it's delayed any further,

0:41:30.440 --> 0:41:32.480
<v Speaker 18>if it's not going to get passed, then you know

0:41:32.600 --> 0:41:34.840
<v Speaker 18>that just kind of leaves more children vulnerable.

0:41:36.400 --> 0:41:36.720
<v Speaker 3>Cameron.

0:41:36.760 --> 0:41:38.959
<v Speaker 2>I want to turn to your piece in the Nightly now.

0:41:39.160 --> 0:41:43.000
<v Speaker 2>I think you're predicting a March eight election day. That's

0:41:43.040 --> 0:41:47.000
<v Speaker 2>my birthday, by the way, So these could be if

0:41:47.000 --> 0:41:50.520
<v Speaker 2>you're right, this week could be the last week of

0:41:50.600 --> 0:41:55.040
<v Speaker 2>the alban Ezy government, in last sitting week before the election.

0:41:55.719 --> 0:41:57.839
<v Speaker 3>What do you think? What are you hearing about when

0:41:57.880 --> 0:41:59.000
<v Speaker 3>the election is going to be called?

0:42:01.280 --> 0:42:02.839
<v Speaker 17>Well, I don't think they can keep going the way

0:42:02.840 --> 0:42:05.640
<v Speaker 17>they are and Parliament is an absolute shamozel, an absolute

0:42:05.640 --> 0:42:08.319
<v Speaker 17>shamodel are I mean, the Greens and Liberals are tag

0:42:08.400 --> 0:42:11.040
<v Speaker 17>teaming their attacks on labor, and labour's being sort of

0:42:11.239 --> 0:42:13.239
<v Speaker 17>beaten up around the chambers, all around the place, and

0:42:13.239 --> 0:42:15.400
<v Speaker 17>they've lost control of Parliament. So there's no point to

0:42:15.440 --> 0:42:17.600
<v Speaker 17>go back, no point to go back. And I don't

0:42:17.640 --> 0:42:19.000
<v Speaker 17>think the budget is going to be the bounce that

0:42:19.040 --> 0:42:21.799
<v Speaker 17>they want either, so leaving it right out to May

0:42:22.120 --> 0:42:24.840
<v Speaker 17>doesn't make a lot of sense. Call the election straight

0:42:24.840 --> 0:42:27.319
<v Speaker 17>after Christmas when people are feeling good about themselves. Got

0:42:27.320 --> 0:42:29.520
<v Speaker 17>a bit of a buzz calling on Australia Day for

0:42:29.600 --> 0:42:32.200
<v Speaker 17>March eight. I think makes an awful lot of sense.

0:42:32.440 --> 0:42:34.640
<v Speaker 2>If people are feeling good about themselves. I mean, there's

0:42:34.640 --> 0:42:35.920
<v Speaker 2>going to be a lot of families who are going

0:42:35.960 --> 0:42:38.840
<v Speaker 2>to be struggling to buy Christmas presents for their children.

0:42:38.880 --> 0:42:42.920
<v Speaker 2>They'll be disappointed at children. It could be a complete mess. Liz,

0:42:42.960 --> 0:42:44.840
<v Speaker 2>what's your sense do you think the Prime Minister is

0:42:44.880 --> 0:42:47.239
<v Speaker 2>going to want to return to Parliament next year or

0:42:47.239 --> 0:42:48.480
<v Speaker 2>will you try and avoid that.

0:42:48.640 --> 0:42:50.759
<v Speaker 18>I think there's a pretty good case, like you just said,

0:42:50.800 --> 0:42:53.319
<v Speaker 18>to avoid it. I mean, things aren't really going to

0:42:53.320 --> 0:42:57.560
<v Speaker 18>get better for families, you know, between now and Australia Day,

0:42:57.600 --> 0:43:00.439
<v Speaker 18>between now and March eight, between now and May twenty five,

0:43:00.520 --> 0:43:02.840
<v Speaker 18>if that's when the election is, you know, cost of

0:43:02.880 --> 0:43:05.600
<v Speaker 18>living is not going to go down, affordability is not

0:43:05.640 --> 0:43:07.759
<v Speaker 18>going to get any easier. Things are likely to get

0:43:07.800 --> 0:43:11.520
<v Speaker 18>worse for families. The only sense in holding out would

0:43:11.520 --> 0:43:15.080
<v Speaker 18>be maybe if they're banking on, you know, a rate cut,

0:43:15.120 --> 0:43:15.759
<v Speaker 18>but that's you know.

0:43:15.760 --> 0:43:17.520
<v Speaker 3>You wouldn't put your money off in that now. It's

0:43:17.600 --> 0:43:18.320
<v Speaker 3>not going to happen.

0:43:18.360 --> 0:43:20.799
<v Speaker 18>It's certainly not going to happen before March. It's very

0:43:20.880 --> 0:43:24.319
<v Speaker 18>unlikely to happen before May. So yeah, and we know

0:43:24.480 --> 0:43:27.279
<v Speaker 18>also that the budget is slated for May twenty five.

0:43:27.520 --> 0:43:29.600
<v Speaker 18>With the numbers that they've got to work with, sorry,

0:43:29.600 --> 0:43:31.680
<v Speaker 18>March twenty five, With the numbers that they've got to

0:43:31.680 --> 0:43:33.960
<v Speaker 18>work with, it's going to be really, really difficult to

0:43:34.000 --> 0:43:36.520
<v Speaker 18>produce an election winning budget, So if they can avoid

0:43:36.520 --> 0:43:38.840
<v Speaker 18>that altogether, then that's probably an advantage.

0:43:39.239 --> 0:43:40.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Cameron, what do you reckon about this?

0:43:40.920 --> 0:43:44.360
<v Speaker 2>Because Jim Chalmers has delivered two surpluses, you know, a

0:43:44.520 --> 0:43:45.160
<v Speaker 2>huge feat.

0:43:45.280 --> 0:43:47.680
<v Speaker 3>The Coalition wasn't able to deliver a surplus.

0:43:47.960 --> 0:43:51.080
<v Speaker 2>But the next budget will be in severe deficits. So

0:43:51.480 --> 0:43:53.239
<v Speaker 2>do you think they're going to want to avoid that

0:43:53.400 --> 0:43:55.960
<v Speaker 2>or they're just going to have the budget and argue

0:43:55.960 --> 0:43:58.279
<v Speaker 2>that well, they delivered too, and the Coalition did it.

0:44:00.320 --> 0:44:00.480
<v Speaker 1>Well.

0:44:00.520 --> 0:44:02.120
<v Speaker 17>I think it's good that we've got surpluses, but I

0:44:02.160 --> 0:44:04.880
<v Speaker 17>don't think voters who are under massive crisis, cost of

0:44:04.920 --> 0:44:07.600
<v Speaker 17>living crisis pretty particularly care about that. They do care

0:44:07.600 --> 0:44:10.040
<v Speaker 17>about labor debt and deficit though, and they'll care about

0:44:10.040 --> 0:44:12.480
<v Speaker 17>the fact that Charmers in March next year has to

0:44:12.520 --> 0:44:16.040
<v Speaker 17>tell everyone that inflation's going back up again. His budget

0:44:16.080 --> 0:44:18.719
<v Speaker 17>only buys those power bills for so long, and they'll

0:44:18.719 --> 0:44:20.399
<v Speaker 17>have to return to what the RBA is saying, which

0:44:20.400 --> 0:44:23.880
<v Speaker 17>is it interest rates and inflation are under pressure in

0:44:24.040 --> 0:44:26.600
<v Speaker 17>the back half of twenty twenty five. So the budget

0:44:26.640 --> 0:44:28.960
<v Speaker 17>is not going to be a great document because of externalities,

0:44:29.120 --> 0:44:31.120
<v Speaker 17>not because of what Chalmer's plan is, but because you've

0:44:31.120 --> 0:44:33.680
<v Speaker 17>actually got to bring to book all those problems that

0:44:33.760 --> 0:44:36.439
<v Speaker 17>Labour's got on the horizon and voters will then see

0:44:36.440 --> 0:44:37.759
<v Speaker 17>it in plane.

0:44:37.560 --> 0:44:41.200
<v Speaker 3>Riding and Liz Dutton does still have the edge.

0:44:41.239 --> 0:44:44.360
<v Speaker 2>The Coalition traditionally has the edge on economic management, but

0:44:44.680 --> 0:44:47.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean that's even exacerbated given the extreme cost of

0:44:47.760 --> 0:44:49.840
<v Speaker 2>living crisis that Australians are going through.

0:44:50.200 --> 0:44:52.799
<v Speaker 18>Yeah, and look, I mean if Cameron's right about his

0:44:52.840 --> 0:44:55.000
<v Speaker 18>election date, maybe it'll be a Dutton government that has

0:44:55.040 --> 0:44:57.279
<v Speaker 18>to hand down the next budget anyway, which is looking

0:44:57.280 --> 0:45:00.399
<v Speaker 18>pretty dismal. But it'll be an easier self for them

0:45:00.560 --> 0:45:03.160
<v Speaker 18>to have to, you know, deliver a budget that's maybe

0:45:03.239 --> 0:45:06.040
<v Speaker 18>not so popular when they're being seen as being lunked

0:45:06.040 --> 0:45:06.960
<v Speaker 18>with Labour's mess.

0:45:07.000 --> 0:45:09.040
<v Speaker 3>Then you know, then it would be.

0:45:08.960 --> 0:45:11.480
<v Speaker 18>For Charmers to have to hand down his budget when

0:45:11.480 --> 0:45:14.200
<v Speaker 18>he's been I guess in control of the economy for

0:45:14.320 --> 0:45:16.640
<v Speaker 18>all these years. But with the surplus issue, I mean,

0:45:16.680 --> 0:45:19.919
<v Speaker 18>to voters really care about about a surplus? I think,

0:45:20.200 --> 0:45:22.560
<v Speaker 18>especially in times like now, it's more about you know,

0:45:22.640 --> 0:45:25.520
<v Speaker 18>what's in it? For me as a voter, I'll often

0:45:25.600 --> 0:45:28.879
<v Speaker 18>see the surplus as you know, government's crowing about having

0:45:28.920 --> 0:45:31.680
<v Speaker 18>all of this excess amount of money, although that's not

0:45:31.840 --> 0:45:34.359
<v Speaker 18>really exactly what it is. It's almost like, you know,

0:45:34.440 --> 0:45:37.200
<v Speaker 18>if you're working at a company and they're announcing delivering

0:45:37.480 --> 0:45:41.280
<v Speaker 18>massive profits for their shareholders, but as an employee, you're going, well,

0:45:41.400 --> 0:45:42.520
<v Speaker 18>where's my pay increase?

0:45:42.880 --> 0:45:43.640
<v Speaker 3>Do you know what I mean?

0:45:43.719 --> 0:45:43.799
<v Speaker 10>Like?

0:45:43.840 --> 0:45:46.960
<v Speaker 18>I think, I don't think a surplus is as impressive

0:45:47.080 --> 0:45:50.200
<v Speaker 18>and as much of a vote winner people or maybe government.

0:45:50.239 --> 0:45:51.280
<v Speaker 3>Their own family budget.

0:45:51.320 --> 0:45:57.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, exactly, foremost completely Cameron, what do I question?

0:45:57.280 --> 0:45:57.960
<v Speaker 3>Without notice?

0:45:58.080 --> 0:46:02.320
<v Speaker 2>As they say, do you there's any chance alban Easy

0:46:02.440 --> 0:46:04.240
<v Speaker 2>will be rolled before the next election.

0:46:06.280 --> 0:46:08.240
<v Speaker 17>Well, that's the other reason for not coming back, because

0:46:08.239 --> 0:46:10.680
<v Speaker 17>the last opportunity for Caucus to neck him this year

0:46:10.920 --> 0:46:14.640
<v Speaker 17>was yesterday unfortunately, So if the Labor comes back, there'll

0:46:14.680 --> 0:46:17.600
<v Speaker 17>be four more Caucus meetings and four more opportunities. So

0:46:17.920 --> 0:46:20.520
<v Speaker 17>going to election before Labor Caucus can actually review him

0:46:21.080 --> 0:46:21.839
<v Speaker 17>might be a good thing.

0:46:22.360 --> 0:46:24.759
<v Speaker 2>And there has been some chatter about Tony Burke being

0:46:24.800 --> 0:46:26.120
<v Speaker 2>a little bit ambitious.

0:46:28.560 --> 0:46:32.000
<v Speaker 17>Burke has always been ambitious, blindingly ambitious, and is the

0:46:32.040 --> 0:46:34.000
<v Speaker 17>sort of guy who would actually roll the dice on

0:46:34.040 --> 0:46:34.640
<v Speaker 17>a leadership.

0:46:35.880 --> 0:46:37.919
<v Speaker 2>Liz, very quickly, before we go, I want to touch

0:46:37.960 --> 0:46:40.520
<v Speaker 2>on the campaign Thatnews Dot COM's running at the moment,

0:46:40.680 --> 0:46:42.320
<v Speaker 2>take the stand, tell.

0:46:42.160 --> 0:46:43.560
<v Speaker 3>Me about it. Yeah, that's right.

0:46:43.640 --> 0:46:49.160
<v Speaker 18>So we are campaigning for survivors of sexual assault, who

0:46:49.760 --> 0:46:54.520
<v Speaker 18>overwhelmingly report that when they enter the justice system, they

0:46:54.560 --> 0:46:57.600
<v Speaker 18>come out of it more traumatized than when they entered it.

0:46:57.760 --> 0:46:59.759
<v Speaker 18>In many cases, we've had women report to us that

0:46:59.800 --> 0:47:03.279
<v Speaker 18>they have actually found the experience of going through court,

0:47:03.400 --> 0:47:06.399
<v Speaker 18>even at times when their offender was found guilty, when

0:47:06.440 --> 0:47:10.239
<v Speaker 18>they've had justice, that that experience has actually been traumatic.

0:47:10.320 --> 0:47:12.560
<v Speaker 18>Then the event that more traumatic than the event that

0:47:12.640 --> 0:47:15.560
<v Speaker 18>led them there. So we're campaigning for eight cost effective

0:47:15.640 --> 0:47:20.600
<v Speaker 18>changes that governments can implement right now that will help survivors.

0:47:20.680 --> 0:47:24.280
<v Speaker 18>And Nina Finel, the journalist who is producing this campaign,

0:47:24.600 --> 0:47:29.280
<v Speaker 18>has got some really extraordinary stories, exclusive stories of women

0:47:29.600 --> 0:47:32.359
<v Speaker 18>and their tales of survival and the trauma that they've

0:47:32.360 --> 0:47:34.239
<v Speaker 18>been through with the courts. I really encourage everyone to

0:47:34.320 --> 0:47:36.719
<v Speaker 18>check it out. There's a petition associated that you can

0:47:36.760 --> 0:47:37.319
<v Speaker 18>sign as well.

0:47:37.600 --> 0:47:40.200
<v Speaker 2>Well done on that important work, Lizbert Camera Milner.

0:47:40.360 --> 0:47:43.640
<v Speaker 3>Great to see you. Thanks all support. Now don't go anywhere.

0:47:43.680 --> 0:47:46.480
<v Speaker 2>I'll give my final thoughts on Pennywong's comments about the

0:47:46.760 --> 0:47:49.040
<v Speaker 2>ICC warrants to arrest Ned and Yahoo.

0:47:49.120 --> 0:47:54.600
<v Speaker 3>That's after the break now.

0:47:54.640 --> 0:47:57.400
<v Speaker 2>A former un official, Ramesh the cur has made the

0:47:57.400 --> 0:48:00.520
<v Speaker 2>point in the Odds today that the panel that ICC

0:48:00.719 --> 0:48:04.600
<v Speaker 2>Prosecutor Karim Khan selected either had personal links to him

0:48:04.920 --> 0:48:08.200
<v Speaker 2>or were already on the record accusing Israel of war

0:48:08.280 --> 0:48:12.359
<v Speaker 2>crimes that they were asked to investigate. This was never

0:48:12.440 --> 0:48:15.600
<v Speaker 2>going to be an impartial investigation. They didn't even step

0:48:15.640 --> 0:48:19.480
<v Speaker 2>foot in Israel. And tonight Alexander Downer has said that

0:48:19.560 --> 0:48:22.960
<v Speaker 2>he regrets signing Australia up to the ICC when he

0:48:23.200 --> 0:48:26.960
<v Speaker 2>was Foreign Minister. It is now time to leave. I'll

0:48:27.000 --> 0:48:29.720
<v Speaker 2>see you again eight o'clock Thursday. Here's poor Murray
