But 0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:42.840 there's some good news that if the interrogators at Guantanago 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.200 Bay are looking for a new way to get people 0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:48.279 to talk, well you just please, team they'll be begging 0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:48.960 for Bercy. 0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:52.840 Who gives Tita the most treats? 0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:54.880 Yeah that would be me. 0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:59.160 Who's most likely to get lost even using a GPS 0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:00.200 I think we both. 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:01.120 Pretty good on navigating. 0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:05.080 You were too quick then I've never gone luft really 0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:10.760 on the half of Gadie and I Happy Valentine Today Australia. 0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:13.359 Happy Valentine's Stage one year since we got a game. 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:15.960 Who wants to throw up? 0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:16.440 First? 0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:23.359 And in the meantime, while Albow and Jody head off upstairs, 0:02:23.680 --> 0:02:38.239 let's grab the lady outsid news. Ye anyway, even funnier. 0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:43.040 Even funnier was this morning on Andrew Clenell's excellent show, 0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:47.200 which we've just finished. Before us, both Peter Dutton and 0:02:47.400 --> 0:02:51.359 Claire O'Neill of the Labor Party on a minister. We're 0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:53.880 talking about Kevin Right, our favorite person here on this show. 0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:57.480 Dutton's of the opinion that Rudd should be punted or 0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:00.800 heading towards that I certainly backed at onion Rubbs should 0:03:00.800 --> 0:03:03.519 have been hunted long ago, will be punted mark these 0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:07.680 words and deserves to be punted. Claire O'Neil, however, thinks differently. 0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:09.600 Let's listen to the two points of view. This is 0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:11.600 a very balanced show, so let's have a listen. 0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:14.800 It's not a yes or no answer that can be given. 0:03:15.320 --> 0:03:16.960 We have to have an ambassador who is in our 0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:21.000 country's best interests. Kevin obviously is an accomplished person as 0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:23.560 Prime Minister of our country, and if he's the best 0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:25.519 person for the job, then he should stay in the job. 0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:27.560 If it turns out that he's had no access to 0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.560 the White House and no real influence in relation to 0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:33.400 this issue or whatever the next issue might be, then 0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:37.560 you would have to reassess his position. But at the 0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:40.400 moment we're being told that he's effective in his advocacy 0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:42.440 in the administration. I suppose time will tell. 0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:44.280 So you'd make a judgment call once you hit off, 0:03:44.560 --> 0:03:45.880 once you got some more information. 0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:49.560 But having said that, my instinct would be to leave 0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:53.080 him in the job. But if again, if there are 0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:56.920 insurmountable problems that he has or that the administration has 0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:59.600 with him, then that would make it very difficult. 0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:02.960 There is not a single person on the planet that 0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:07.200 I would have as Australian ambassador to Washington than Kevin Rudd. 0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:12.400 Kevin Rudd is a global expert in relations regarding China, 0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:15.080 which is of course one of the most important issues 0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:18.080 that we confront and will continue to confront. He's one 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:22.280 of the most assiduous, hard working, diligent patriots of our country, 0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:24.200 and he's doing a fantastic job. 0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:29.039 Well, Hyperba hyperball, Clara, you've just earned yourself a spot 0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:32.480 on Hyperbare. That was hilarious, Clarina, Obviously you weren't talking 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:35.320 about Kevin Rudd. You're talking about someone completely different. This 0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:37.240 is the same Kevin right, of course, who was so 0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:41.760 said such horrible rude things about Donald Trump over the years, 0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:43.640 and who, by the way, was a complete disaster of 0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:44.800 a prime minister in this country. 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:48.400 Reader, he was knifed by his own, who is loath 0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:51.560 by his own. No one hates Kevin Rudd more than 0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:53.479 people within the Labor Party. 0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:54.680 Let's be honest. 0:04:54.360 --> 0:05:00.200 Here, and to suggest that his expertise with China makes 0:05:00.279 --> 0:05:03.400 him fit to be ambassador in the year of what. 0:05:03.920 --> 0:05:04.320 How does that? 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:05.400 Maybe? 0:05:05.440 --> 0:05:08.000 Send him to China, Send him to Beijing, then maybe 0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:10.120 he'll do some good there if he's not accusing them 0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:13.760 of rat effing him. Remember that we haven't forgotten that 0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:18.240 that wasn't very diplomatic. The facts are that he has 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:20.520 been talking. 0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:21.840 Like a first year arts student. 0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:26.400 He has been spewing all sorts of absolute nonsense about 0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:31.680 Donald Trump and the whole Maga movement, and he's not 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:34.960 going to be accepted because they know his form, they 0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:38.599 are not going to have anything like a decent working 0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:41.920 relationship with him. So for Peter Dutton to sort of 0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:45.680 qualify whether he would stay or go, I think is 0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:48.160 a little bit weak. I know he said, well, you 0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:51.640 know the relationship is beyond mending, then he has to go. 0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:53.359 It's pretty clear. 0:05:53.400 --> 0:05:57.440 It is exactly really you said that nobody loves Kevin 0:05:57.480 --> 0:05:59.800 rod Lake's former colleagues of the Liver Party, but nobody 0:05:59.839 --> 0:06:03.000 loves loves Kevin Rudd more than Kevin Rudd. So not 0:06:03.120 --> 0:06:06.040 forget that there. But you know, for Peter Dutton here, 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.880 I think he needs to remember who here is, you know, 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:11.599 running for the role of prime minister, and who is 0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:14.360 actually in the role of diplomatic Peter Dutton's being far 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:18.440 too diplomatic, I think about that. Kevin Rudd I think 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:22.120 has been a debacle as the US ambassador, and for 0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:25.080 a simple reason. You know, we know that he does 0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:29.400 not like trust, want to talk to it all looks 0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:32.960 down on Trump and the whole MAGA movement. You cannot 0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:37.520 have somebody as our ambassador to our closest and most 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:42.159 important trading and strategic and economic ally without you know, 0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:45.520 when that person is somebody who treats the government there 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:49.120 as a as hostile territory, it simply doesn't work. 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:52.000 Can put in a requests quickly, Rady? Can I put 0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:54.600 in a request? Can Peter Dutton please get some new advises? 0:06:54.760 --> 0:06:59.039 Playing seriously, seriously, Peter Dutton should be out there saying 0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:01.240 we've got to get rid of Tomorrow, We've got to 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:03.560 get rid of him. Peter Dutton will be talking to 0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:05.760 Professor and Plymber in a second about this, and he's 0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:07.760 got some very strong views on this. But we should 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:11.160 be saying, Peter Dutton, Peter Dutton should be saying, we're 0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:13.600 going to pull out of Paris. We're going to follow America, 0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:16.880 We're going to abandon that zero because we are interested 0:07:16.920 --> 0:07:21.200 in having a successful economy, not one that is hampered 0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:25.040 and hammered by these ridiculous net zero targets which are 0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:29.040 destroying the country, destroying our economy. And Kevin Rudd was 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.040 one of the ones who put us into Paris. He 0:07:31.080 --> 0:07:33.560 should be punted. And Dutton should be man enough to 0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:36.160 stand up and say I'm going to make Australia great again, 0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:39.320 and I'm going to do it by abandoning net zero, 0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:42.000 pulling out of Paris, punting Kevin right, and the list 0:07:42.080 --> 0:07:45.480 goes on, can we please get rid of these liberal advisors, 0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:48.480 these bedwetters who sit around going, oh, let's just be 0:07:48.520 --> 0:07:50.640 a little bit like kind of like the Teals and 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:52.760 let's be a little bit light labor. Let's be a 0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:56.200 little bit Mike, Marc and Turnbull. And it didn't work. 0:07:56.520 --> 0:07:57.360 You've failed. 0:07:57.600 --> 0:08:01.520 Now get out and get some proper what's the word 0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:04.240 I'm looking for, James back. I was going to say 0:08:04.280 --> 0:08:06.760 kahonas I was going to practice my Spanish, but anyway, 0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:10.840 back line into the liberal body so you can win. 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:14.680 My god, how hot is it? It is so exactly right, 0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:15.840 I mean it is. You know. 0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:17.920 The thing is, we don't have a lot of time here. 0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:20.760 There's not a long time at all. And these are 0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:24.400 positions which should have been staked out years ago, really, 0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:27.280 like you know, around climate, and you've got all of this. 0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:29.760 You know, there's so much anger out there in the 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:31.080 community about so many things. 0:08:31.200 --> 0:08:31.520 Exactly. 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:33.640 We're talking to you a little bit later about how 0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:37.760 people in rural communities are absolutely furious about what's happening 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:41.600 to their land and their communities because of net zero, 0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:45.679 the drive to put high voltage power lines through productive farmland, 0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:49.760 to turn productive farmland into wind farms and solar farms, 0:08:49.760 --> 0:08:52.440 and what it is doing to these people, these farmers 0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:55.640 and our agricultural security, which is our food security, which 0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:58.200 is our economic security, which is our national security. 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:01.679 And a lot we saw being heckled Rita on a 0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:04.679 couple of days ago out there in Woollongong. We're beautiful 0:09:04.720 --> 0:09:07.080 woo and Gong, wonderful, beautiful part of the world, as 0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:09.920 gorgeous beaches of jering Gong all down there, Jambreu and 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:14.319 here you've got these clowns sticking these ridiculous windmills out there. 0:09:14.640 --> 0:09:18.480 Quite rightly, the public said no, thank you to Albo. 0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:22.079 There's one of the characters. Have a listen. Maybe you 0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:22.439 don't know. 0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:27.080 The importance of the still industry for this electric My 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:29.680 message is very clear, which has Webb got your back. 0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:34.080 We support blue collar jobs. Know that we support still works. 0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:34.320 Here. 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:38.400 I don't think people who are shoutings. 0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:44.880 No, the people were shouting and represent real Australians. Yes, 0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:46.520 the people standing there in the group were the ones 0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:49.480 that were flown in by the PR group. I imagine 0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:50.400 that I don't know Rita. 0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:55.679 Well, those offshore wind farms are enormously unpopular with anyone 0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:58.920 who's unlucky enough to have it thrust upon their community. 0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:01.319 And James, you said, people in. 0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:04.680 The regional areas are very alarmed about what's happening. 0:10:05.600 --> 0:10:06.840 All of us should be alarmed. 0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:08.880 Just because you live in the big cities and you 0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:12.400 don't drive out of a fifty kilometer radius too often, 0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:15.240 you should not be ignorant about what's happening. 0:10:15.760 --> 0:10:17.240 Well, here's why, regional areas. 0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:17.959 But here's why. 0:10:18.240 --> 0:10:21.280 Here's why, because you know these communities, Yes, they're all 0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:24.240 getting torn apart by this stuff. But this whole net 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:27.520 zero push everybody who lives in the cities. It's in 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:30.160 the cities where we're being told, Hey, don't turn your 0:10:30.160 --> 0:10:32.839 air conditioner on on a hot day, don't run the 0:10:32.880 --> 0:10:35.559 dishwasher a certain hour if you don't mind. The whole 0:10:35.640 --> 0:10:40.080 net zero agenda is about limiting what you can do, 0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:44.360 and that affects absolutely everybody, whether you're a greenie living 0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:47.120 in a terrace house in Paddington or if you are 0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:50.960 living outside Guldburn or outside wherever in Country New South 0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:54.040 Wales or Country Victoria or Country South Australia. 0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:56.800 But also reads that net zero is the biggest tax 0:10:56.880 --> 0:11:00.280 you can put on every single aspects of business. These 0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:02.400 people complaining about, oh, Donald Trump's going to put on 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:06.960 tariffs on this, tariffs ain't nothing. Net zero is lastly, 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:11.520 much more amounts of money being crippling our industries, crippling 0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:15.800 our manufacturing than ever tariffs will be a problem. It's 0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:18.880 net zero that with that is what is destroying our 0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:21.520 economy going forward. And we've got to get to grips 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:23.040 of that in the Liberal Party, and we've got a 0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:25.439 man up and say this is the problem. 0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:28.280 Right Well absolutely, and Tim Blair wrote a brilliant piece 0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:32.880 through the week about how all these lefties from Labor, Greens, 0:11:32.960 --> 0:11:36.920 the Teals upset about Trump's proposed tariffs on Australian still 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:38.760 an aluminium. 0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:40.480 You guys want a carbon tax. 0:11:40.520 --> 0:11:43.319 This is essentially a teeny tiny carbon tax. You think 0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:46.839 you'd they'd be applauding it because suddenly all these greenies 0:11:46.880 --> 0:11:49.679 and lefties are pro fossil fuel advocates. 0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:51.560 So it was very interesting you're. 0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:55.520 Not suggesting their hypocrites on I can't wait to talk. 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:58.559 More about this with professor and Plym after the break 0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:00.840 can I just say one last thing on Kevin Rudd. 0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:05.200 You would think it would be working over time to 0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:08.440 repair relations, to try to redeem himselves in the eyes 0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:09.160 of the GOP. 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:10.320 No. 0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:13.840 Inauguration day he was at an inauguration. 0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:16.200 Board the Starlight Barber All the heavy hitters were just 0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:18.479 about every key Republican. 0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:20.600 He was there for. 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:23.400 Less than an hour. He was there, barely talked to anybody. 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:27.440 Was there with Penny Wong, talked to Vivek Ramaswami, talked 0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:30.160 to a bunch of Australians who were there and. 0:12:31.760 --> 0:12:32.200 Gone. 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.760 You would think, and an event like that where every 0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:38.560 sort of heavy hitter is in the under the same room, 0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:41.960 you would be working in the room from from start 0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:46.319 to finish, trying to just assure our greatest ally that 0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:49.520 I apologize for what I said. I don't know what 0:12:49.679 --> 0:12:52.800 I was thinking, but however you need to do to 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:56.120 redeem yourself to be there, to be present, to show 0:12:56.160 --> 0:12:57.960 your supportive and you're on board. 0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:02.160 But no that this week is sea Pack in America. 0:13:02.200 --> 0:13:04.800 That's the Seapack conference. You remember. Outsiders was live at 0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:08.120 the Australian Seaback. We had a great time and Seapack 0:13:08.160 --> 0:13:09.880 in America is next week. That is where all the 0:13:09.920 --> 0:13:12.160 Republican heavy hitters are. They'll all be there. That is 0:13:12.240 --> 0:13:14.120 that is the holy from. 0:13:15.160 --> 0:13:20.200 The start to finish for an hour. Protect you were. 0:13:20.120 --> 0:13:23.240 There exactly so we will be. Outsiders will be crossing 0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:27.160 live too Seapack next week chatting to Warren Mundane will 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:29.839 be there, Andrew Cooper and maybe others as well. You 0:13:29.960 --> 0:13:32.199 never know. Hey, Kevin, how about you come on Outsiders 0:13:32.200 --> 0:13:35.240 and chat to us live from Seapack. There you go, mate, 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:38.160 Let's see how keen you really are to get in 0:13:38.200 --> 0:13:43.120 there with the new American administration. Albou. Meanwhile, you know 0:13:44.360 --> 0:13:46.480 a great phone call you had there with Trump, albat 0:13:46.679 --> 0:13:50.760 nice work. But a recovered from his disastrous phone call 0:13:50.800 --> 0:13:53.760 with Trump by having tea with the teals. Can you 0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:57.360 imagine at tea with the teals, James, they all came on. 0:13:57.880 --> 0:13:59.959 What the fun that must have been? 0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:01.480 In shame I wasn't there. 0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:07.439 Can you imagine the absolute laugh a minute? 0:14:07.600 --> 0:14:10.000 It was a smoaking seremony. Moniy Ryan could have led 0:14:10.000 --> 0:14:12.199 the smoking seremary where they will breathe. 0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:17.280 In chemical You're sorry for Anthony Albanize. It's not too 0:14:17.280 --> 0:14:19.440 often I would say this, but I actually feel sorry 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:22.720 for the Prime minister. Can you imagine just being surrounded 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:25.400 by those trainers for how long would that would have? 0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:26.400 That? 0:14:26.800 --> 0:14:29.480 How much fun were you hang out with your modique 0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:33.200 Ryan and Kylah till But you know, this is actually 0:14:33.240 --> 0:14:36.760 really interesting to me because what this tells me is 0:14:36.840 --> 0:14:41.920 that Albanezi is nervous. Nobody would subject themselves to the 0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:46.880 deals if they didn't think, oh my lord, I'm going 0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:50.000 to have to maybe make a deal with these people 0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:52.360 sometime in the next coming you know, weeks or a 0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:56.760 month or two to maintain my seats on the treasury benches. 0:14:56.920 --> 0:14:58.760 So there's a real this, I think. 0:14:59.000 --> 0:15:01.280 And it goes to something else that's going on here, 0:15:01.440 --> 0:15:04.240 which is that labor is now nervous apparently about. 0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:06.480 A whole number seats here. 0:15:06.800 --> 0:15:09.440 So yeah, so and this also confirms stuff that you 0:15:09.520 --> 0:15:12.160 hear if you talk to people of the Liberal Party about, 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:14.720 you know, seats that they're confident about picking up. There's 0:15:14.720 --> 0:15:17.360 a number of seats and some of them include Gilbour 0:15:17.400 --> 0:15:19.680 and New South Wales been along in New South Wales 0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:24.800 seats in Victoria that we're all little robertson very important seats. 0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:24.680 You know. 0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:28.600 So there's seats there that are that now needs I 0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:31.800 think twenty seats when it is all right, but there 0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:33.840 I know also the Liberals are confidence about a number 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:36.360 of other seats that aren't even on this list. So 0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:40.800 this goes to show just how concerned I think Labor 0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:44.280 is right now about their state at the coming election. 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:45.920 And one of the really interesting things that we've seen 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:47.760 here is that if you look at some of that 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:50.440 seat by seat stuff that came out a few weeks ago, 0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:54.560 the seats where Labor has the weakest holds are the 0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:57.720 ones where the liberal or the electorate has the most 0:15:57.800 --> 0:15:58.760 liberal positions. 0:15:58.880 --> 0:15:59.120 Yeah. 0:15:59.320 --> 0:16:05.360 Interesting, Yeah, the definitely we've got to see. You know, 0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:09.440 the attack on the Teals is absolutely critical, but it's not, 0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:11.600 as Rita keeps saying, it's not all about pandering to 0:16:11.720 --> 0:16:14.520 the Teals. It's attacking the Teals on the points of 0:16:14.600 --> 0:16:17.400 principle as to why they're wrong. I still have my letter. 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:20.040 I carry around my letter where the Teals all signed 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:24.520 the letter demanding more financing going to ANOIR if there 0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:27.400 weren't anyone else to provide aid to Gaza. Now have 0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:29.720 they retracted that letter, Have they said, oh, actually we 0:16:29.760 --> 0:16:32.200 would like to see Nadeld' Anois around the world is 0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:35.080 recognized as basically being a front for hamas have the 0:16:35.120 --> 0:16:37.720 Teals step forward and apologize to the people in their 0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:41.600 electorates for having gone down that route. So as we say, 0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:44.400 if Labor wants to play foot seas with the Teals, 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:48.200 let every person and every Teal electric remember these people 0:16:48.320 --> 0:16:50.840 will just guarantee you another labor government. If that's what 0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:53.520 you want, vote Teal. If you don't want Labor, vote 0:16:53.560 --> 0:16:55.800 the Teals out and make sure everyone you know, your 0:16:55.840 --> 0:16:58.400 neighbors and your friends will always do the same thing. 0:16:58.440 --> 0:16:59.200 They are poisoned. 0:16:59.240 --> 0:17:01.680 I would go one step further. I do believe they're 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:04.040 poison like the Greens. In fact, the Greens and the 0:17:04.040 --> 0:17:06.080 Tills is very little between them. 0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:07.960 The Greens are just a little bit. 0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:11.520 More radical, but they're both left of the Labor Party. 0:17:11.840 --> 0:17:15.360 And you would much rather have Labor govern in their 0:17:15.400 --> 0:17:17.840 own right than have to form any sort of a 0:17:17.880 --> 0:17:21.280 coalition with the Tills or the Greens, because that would 0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:24.440 be an even worse government than what we have seen 0:17:24.480 --> 0:17:25.359 in the last few years. 0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:31.040 And speaking of toxic lefties, Sydney City Council is basically 0:17:31.080 --> 0:17:34.960 that's the clover More. Why the people of Sydney City 0:17:35.040 --> 0:17:40.159 voted this person back into power as mayor. Absolutely I 0:17:40.200 --> 0:17:42.879 cannot believe. But anyway, she's kind of moving towards some 0:17:42.960 --> 0:17:47.960 kind of BDS light policy, which Jewish leaders are very 0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:48.639 angry about. 0:17:48.680 --> 0:17:51.760 James, Yeah, I mean, so this involves doing things like 0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:55.680 scrapping their contracts with Hewlett Packard, which has links to Israel. 0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:58.000 A number of companies I mean have links to Israel's 0:17:58.000 --> 0:18:00.679 and you know, it's ridiculous because so much software and 0:18:00.720 --> 0:18:03.560 computing technology is all developed in Israel. And this is 0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:06.439 again part of some weird BADS thing. I thought we 0:18:06.600 --> 0:18:10.320 had been done with the boycott devestment sanctions thing with 0:18:10.600 --> 0:18:13.919 local councils years ago. I mean the old Merrickville Council 0:18:13.960 --> 0:18:16.920 which is now the Inner West Council city they did 0:18:16.960 --> 0:18:19.720 this ten fifteen years ago, you know, and they got 0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:20.520 to chatted down for it. 0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:21.600 Why in the middle of. 0:18:21.560 --> 0:18:23.720 The situation that we're in right now with anti Semitism 0:18:23.760 --> 0:18:27.000 in this country, you'd even think about this sort of thing, 0:18:27.160 --> 0:18:28.280 I think is just appalling. 0:18:28.600 --> 0:18:32.440 Well, it's a Greens led motion. Are we surprised this 0:18:32.480 --> 0:18:35.240 is what they do? And we've got to really call 0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:40.080 out any local council any local government entity that wants 0:18:40.119 --> 0:18:44.359 to grandstand on national international issues, stay in your bloody lane. 0:18:44.400 --> 0:18:47.400 If you want to be in that world, then go 0:18:47.480 --> 0:18:50.320 stand for federal parliament. But if you're not good enough, 0:18:50.400 --> 0:18:52.920 if you're in local government level, then focus on. 0:18:52.880 --> 0:18:55.159 How about they do something in said boycotting Israel. How 0:18:55.160 --> 0:18:57.679 about they do stuff to bring back nightlife and life 0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:04.360 into city. It's still a debacle. Oxtra Street to debacle. 0:19:04.359 --> 0:19:07.000 All those places are a debacle and you know they've 0:19:07.040 --> 0:19:09.360 done nothing to fix that. Why don't instead of saying, 0:19:09.400 --> 0:19:11.680 hey we're going to boycott Israel, why don't we say hey, 0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:13.440 we're going to make it easier for you to open 0:19:13.480 --> 0:19:15.520 a venue or do something and have some fun or 0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:16.240 build something. 0:19:16.600 --> 0:19:20.200 But no, exactly, no, you're absolutely right. The Sydney. It's 0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:22.840 shocking in Sydney what they've done the Sydney. The ABC 0:19:23.200 --> 0:19:29.320 costs Australians more than a Netflix subscription and forty percent 0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:33.159 of Australians don't bother watching the ABC. I would have 0:19:33.160 --> 0:19:36.639 thought it was higher than that personally, but this is again, 0:19:37.040 --> 0:19:39.439 where are the liberals. Why aren't the liberals saying we 0:19:39.480 --> 0:19:43.879 are going to put the ABC onto a subscription model 0:19:43.920 --> 0:19:47.720 in the cities and we're going to only fund the regions. 0:19:48.040 --> 0:19:51.639 It's a simple policy, it's understandable, it would make money 0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:54.440 for the government, it would save the taxpayers a fortune, 0:19:54.800 --> 0:19:57.479 and it is the right thing to do. Yes, by 0:19:57.520 --> 0:20:00.359 all means support the BUSH where there's no other services 0:20:00.400 --> 0:20:03.919 that's called the public service. But where you have adequate competition, 0:20:04.200 --> 0:20:07.680 more than adequate competition, the taxpayer should not be funding 0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:09.639 the ABC at all. 0:20:10.200 --> 0:20:12.720 Well, but I'll tell you so. 0:20:13.520 --> 0:20:15.679 You know, it's so ridiculous too though, because even in 0:20:15.720 --> 0:20:18.160 the regions, you know, the readers get sky. 0:20:18.359 --> 0:20:21.240 You know, there's a lot of sky where they don't. 0:20:21.680 --> 0:20:23.480 But but but you know, and you talk to people 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:25.640 in the regions, they're all watching US, They're watching Scott 0:20:25.680 --> 0:20:28.000 They're not watching ABC. You look the latest viewership numbers 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.719 of the ABC. You know, they're falling off a cliff. 0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:33.160 That management there has no idea what they're doing. They're 0:20:33.200 --> 0:20:35.640 on this huge government teap where they don't have any 0:20:36.000 --> 0:20:37.480 you know, incentive for competition. 0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:37.920 You know. 0:20:38.000 --> 0:20:39.680 The funny thing is, for some reason, I actually have 0:20:39.760 --> 0:20:41.640 a Netflix subscription of us some signed up to watch 0:20:41.680 --> 0:20:42.240 some one point. 0:20:42.400 --> 0:20:44.320 I don't watch Netflix. I don't watch the ABC. 0:20:44.520 --> 0:20:46.399 But at least I can at some point get around 0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:48.240 to canceling by Netflix if don't want to pay for it. 0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:52.080 Exactly, it is absolutely abhorrent that we are all forced 0:20:52.320 --> 0:20:56.200 to pay for this activist so called news service that 0:20:56.280 --> 0:20:59.560 does not serve the needs of the Australian community, that 0:20:59.600 --> 0:21:03.840 does makes a joke of its charter every single day. 0:21:04.160 --> 0:21:06.760 And I don't think enough is said about this. The 0:21:06.840 --> 0:21:10.280 ABC has a charter. It's not like Sky Channel ten, 0:21:10.760 --> 0:21:13.800 Channel nine. They can be as left as right or 0:21:14.040 --> 0:21:16.760 in between as they want to be. The ABC, being 0:21:16.760 --> 0:21:22.520 government funded, is obliged by law to be balanced and. 0:21:22.480 --> 0:21:23.800 To live up to its charter. 0:21:24.280 --> 0:21:29.320 It refuses to, and both sides of government, both sides 0:21:29.320 --> 0:21:31.359 of politics just kind of look the other way. Now 0:21:31.400 --> 0:21:34.040 obviously it's Labour's interest to look the other way, but 0:21:34.080 --> 0:21:39.560 the Coalision has been absolutely gutless on tackling this. Is 0:21:39.640 --> 0:21:42.399 in fact that increased funding for the ABC. The most 0:21:42.440 --> 0:21:45.520 they did for a short period was freeze funding and 0:21:45.560 --> 0:21:48.159 the ABC had a three year tantrum about it and 0:21:48.200 --> 0:21:49.399 then they increased it again. 0:21:50.560 --> 0:21:52.720 How do you justify that? How do you not have 0:21:52.800 --> 0:21:53.760 some accountability? 0:21:53.760 --> 0:21:55.840 Well, you can't justify it. And if you look at 0:21:55.840 --> 0:21:58.240 the logic of it. So the new figures are revealed 0:21:58.240 --> 0:22:03.280 that the ABC lost one million viewers or listeners in 0:22:03.320 --> 0:22:08.040 a single year with television and radio rates ratings plunging, 0:22:08.400 --> 0:22:11.720 so that means the tax burden is increased because fewer 0:22:11.720 --> 0:22:14.400 people are watching it, So those people who aren't watching 0:22:14.440 --> 0:22:16.640 it are still paying for it, which means we're all 0:22:16.680 --> 0:22:19.479 paying for something that fewer and fewer people are watching. 0:22:19.680 --> 0:22:23.320 So the pure mass and logic says the Coalition must, 0:22:23.520 --> 0:22:26.040 if they want to represent the people of Australia, say 0:22:26.080 --> 0:22:28.399 I'm sorry, we are putting this on a subscription model 0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:32.480 to find out who really wants it. It's a simple policy, 0:22:32.680 --> 0:22:35.560 you give up. Argentina has withdrawn from the World Health 0:22:35.640 --> 0:22:40.480 Organization and Italy's threatened to. This is all following Donald 0:22:40.480 --> 0:22:42.920 Trump doing the same thing. So around the world they 0:22:43.080 --> 0:22:46.520 understand Pauline Hanson has the policy here in Australia we 0:22:46.520 --> 0:22:49.600 should be withdrawing from the World Health Organization. You bet, 0:22:49.640 --> 0:22:52.080 we should be, absolutely, But of course you won't hear 0:22:52.080 --> 0:22:54.399 that from either of our major political parties. We're going 0:22:54.440 --> 0:22:56.760 to take a short break when we come back. Professory 0:22:56.800 --> 0:22:59.440 and planning, you've got Reta's reality check. Lot's happening here 0:22:59.520 --> 0:23:01.600 on our Siders. Don't go away back. 0:23:06.560 --> 0:23:10.760 You're watching Outsiders with your hosts Rowan Dean, James Mora, 0:23:10.840 --> 0:23:14.160 and I'm Reachapaney. And soon we'll be talking all things 0:23:14.280 --> 0:23:18.159 net Zany with the great Professor in Plymer. But first 0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:22.080 to the thoroughly hopeless Albanezi government and the short sighted 0:23:22.080 --> 0:23:26.360 opposition who are backing anti free speech measures with all 0:23:26.400 --> 0:23:30.840 sorts of ugly consequences to supposedly tackle the anti Semitism 0:23:30.920 --> 0:23:36.200 scourge instead of just ensuring that existing laws are implemented now. 0:23:36.240 --> 0:23:39.480 This week, Australia was again making headlines around the world 0:23:39.560 --> 0:23:42.800 for all the wrong reasons, thanks to another anti Semitic 0:23:42.840 --> 0:23:47.359 incident involving two New South Wales nurses, this time making 0:23:47.400 --> 0:23:52.000 the most vile claims and threats. Articles detailing the shocking 0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:54.960 story were published far and wide, from The Jerusalem Post, 0:23:55.119 --> 0:23:58.040 the New York Times, the BBC and The Times of India, 0:23:58.760 --> 0:24:02.879 and sadly, Australia's reputation has taken a battering again. 0:24:02.920 --> 0:24:04.399 It's taken a battering. 0:24:04.040 --> 0:24:07.760 Since October ninth, twenty twenty three, when footage of anti 0:24:07.840 --> 0:24:11.560 Israeli protest is chanting gas the Jews, or as some claim, 0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:14.960 where are the Jews went around the globe. Since then, 0:24:15.000 --> 0:24:17.720 a number of incidents have reinforced the perception that we 0:24:17.840 --> 0:24:21.440 have a growing antisemitism problem in our mids. Sadly, Jews 0:24:21.480 --> 0:24:25.639 around the world now perceive Australia very differently to just 0:24:25.760 --> 0:24:29.400 eighteen months ago. Certainly in Israel, they are all too 0:24:29.440 --> 0:24:32.800 aware of the dozens of incidents that have come to light, 0:24:32.840 --> 0:24:37.440 including acts of arson, docsing of Jewish creatives, and attacks 0:24:37.480 --> 0:24:41.040 against Jewish students. I was in Israel in mid December 0:24:41.119 --> 0:24:45.119 and was shocked by how local attitudes to Australia had 0:24:45.240 --> 0:24:48.919 changed since my last visit. Many believe that Australians are 0:24:49.280 --> 0:24:53.280 now hostile to Jews and to Israel, and they were 0:24:53.280 --> 0:24:56.080 relieved to learn that most of us haven't fallen for 0:24:56.200 --> 0:25:00.679 leftist pro palestin in propaganda. The Albanese government failure to 0:25:00.720 --> 0:25:04.239 confront a small but loud minority of anti Semites has 0:25:04.320 --> 0:25:07.720 done a great deal of damage to Australia's reputation, and 0:25:07.800 --> 0:25:10.320 now they're trying to address this issue in the most 0:25:10.640 --> 0:25:15.320 short sighted, hand fisted way imaginable by introducing new laws 0:25:15.320 --> 0:25:19.600 that essentially limit free speech. Only last week, Labour, together 0:25:19.640 --> 0:25:23.720 with the Coalition, pass more so called hate speech laws, 0:25:24.080 --> 0:25:28.000 ostensibly to tackle anti Semitism, but anyone with a modicum 0:25:28.000 --> 0:25:31.359 of foresight can see how such laws will be used 0:25:31.359 --> 0:25:35.479 and misused to attack religious freedom with a chilling effect 0:25:35.560 --> 0:25:38.639 on free speech. The Australian Association of Christian Schools was 0:25:38.960 --> 0:25:44.080 among those groups raising concerns about the legislation, knowing full 0:25:44.080 --> 0:25:47.960 well how such laws are used to silence and intimidate 0:25:48.080 --> 0:25:52.040 everyday Australians. Yet it seems both Labor and the Coalition 0:25:52.280 --> 0:25:55.920 are blind to the law of unintended consequences. They pass 0:25:56.080 --> 0:25:59.119 that ill advised legislation last week, and now they're teeming 0:25:59.200 --> 0:26:03.480 up again to propose more bad legislation that will be misused. 0:26:03.880 --> 0:26:04.280 I don't know. 0:26:04.359 --> 0:26:08.280 Approximately five minutes after becoming law, a proposal to tougher 0:26:08.480 --> 0:26:13.320 workplace laws to encourage universities to sack anti Semitic staff 0:26:14.160 --> 0:26:15.600 is hair brained. 0:26:15.320 --> 0:26:16.160 To say the least. 0:26:16.520 --> 0:26:20.919 We already have laws in place, including against intimidation and 0:26:21.000 --> 0:26:24.919 incitement to violence, to tackle the anti Semitism scourge. We 0:26:25.119 --> 0:26:30.040 need authorities to actually start implementing these existing laws rather 0:26:30.119 --> 0:26:33.600 than creating new ones. So effeckless politicians can pretend that 0:26:33.640 --> 0:26:35.280 they have tackled this issue. 0:26:35.800 --> 0:26:36.880 Free speech is. 0:26:36.880 --> 0:26:40.359 A fundamental human right. We cannot afford to trample on 0:26:40.440 --> 0:26:44.399 it further and pretend it's an easy fix to an 0:26:44.440 --> 0:26:48.679 insidious problem that deserves a far more serious response. The 0:26:48.800 --> 0:26:52.479 Coalition in particular cannot afford to push legislation that is 0:26:52.520 --> 0:26:54.560 not in line with liberal values. 0:26:55.119 --> 0:26:55.680 One would have. 0:26:55.640 --> 0:26:59.000 Hoped that Peter Dutton would have learned from the Turnbull 0:26:59.040 --> 0:27:04.120 government's desire ustrous appointment of leftist activist Julianeman Grant as 0:27:04.200 --> 0:27:08.159 e Safety Commissioner, an office that was remember created to 0:27:08.200 --> 0:27:13.280 protect vulnerable children online but quickly morphed into an activist 0:27:13.359 --> 0:27:17.760 outfit that has used taxpayer funds to silence Australians sharing 0:27:17.840 --> 0:27:21.280 mainstream views online, including statements of fact like. 0:27:21.840 --> 0:27:23.040 Men cannot breastfeed. 0:27:23.640 --> 0:27:27.440 Curbing the free speech of all Australians will do nothing 0:27:28.080 --> 0:27:32.120 to meaningfully address the deep seated anti Semitism that exists 0:27:32.160 --> 0:27:36.320 in small but loud segments of our society, and talking 0:27:36.359 --> 0:27:41.119 about the Coalition compromising its core values, they cannot afford 0:27:41.200 --> 0:27:44.560 to have their chances that the upcoming federal election weakened 0:27:45.040 --> 0:27:49.080 by the tiny band of smaller liberals who continue to 0:27:49.160 --> 0:27:53.520 frustrate efforts to deliver clear messages to the electorate. Let's 0:27:53.560 --> 0:27:56.480 consider what happened in the Senate this week when the 0:27:56.520 --> 0:28:00.280 majority of Coalition senators swung behind Pauline Hans's push for 0:28:00.320 --> 0:28:04.080 an inquiry into trans treatments for children in this country. 0:28:04.119 --> 0:28:08.119 This was essentially just seeking a referral to a committee 0:28:08.160 --> 0:28:10.800 for a hearing, that's it. But a small number of 0:28:10.920 --> 0:28:15.240 bedwetters that have consistently voted with Labor and the Greens 0:28:15.359 --> 0:28:19.600 in the Senate on critical cultural issues, well they were 0:28:19.640 --> 0:28:25.720 at it again. And these people repeat offenders, I hate 0:28:25.760 --> 0:28:30.800 to say. Pauline Hanson's motion to establish a real inquiry 0:28:30.880 --> 0:28:34.359 into the human cost of experimental child gender treatments in 0:28:34.400 --> 0:28:37.800 Australia in order to give victims and their families of voice, 0:28:38.440 --> 0:28:41.160 was voted down by Labor, the Greens, the likes. 0:28:41.000 --> 0:28:43.200 O Lydia Thorpe and a number of. 0:28:43.280 --> 0:28:48.000 Liberal senators, Yes, Liberal senators standing against an inquiry into 0:28:48.120 --> 0:28:51.920 radical experimental gender treatments on children. 0:28:52.520 --> 0:28:55.280 Looking just an inquiry, that's all this was. 0:28:55.760 --> 0:28:58.720 And these are treatments that have been stopped in other countries, 0:28:58.760 --> 0:29:01.600 including the UK under a Labor government. 0:29:02.040 --> 0:29:03.000 So let's name. 0:29:02.880 --> 0:29:07.440 These five senators who fail to back the motion. We've 0:29:07.440 --> 0:29:10.360 got Andrew Bragg from New South Wales. We've got Richard 0:29:10.400 --> 0:29:15.080 Colbeck from Tasmania, Maria Kovicic from New South Wales. They 0:29:15.120 --> 0:29:18.320 all join Labor and the Greens to vote against emotion, 0:29:18.400 --> 0:29:22.360 while two others and Rusten from South Australia Jane Hume 0:29:22.400 --> 0:29:26.960 from Victoria, missed the vote. If the Coalition cannot be 0:29:27.080 --> 0:29:31.160 sound and consistent on this issue, on this issue when 0:29:31.240 --> 0:29:34.640 eighty percent of the population is on side, then it's 0:29:34.680 --> 0:29:40.400 not only lacking conviction, but blind to obvious political opportunities. 0:29:41.080 --> 0:29:43.400 And before I go, let's have a quick look at 0:29:43.400 --> 0:29:47.360 how under President Ronald Trump, the US Army is abandoning 0:29:47.480 --> 0:29:53.400 its suicideally woke recruitment ads and going with ads like this. 0:29:53.440 --> 0:29:54.680 Have a look at this later, stad. 0:30:07.240 --> 0:30:08.520 Stronger people are hard to kill. 0:30:09.280 --> 0:30:13.360 Stronger people are harder to kill games. Stronger people are 0:30:13.400 --> 0:30:14.160 harder to kill. 0:30:14.440 --> 0:30:15.200 Don't you love that? 0:30:15.520 --> 0:30:19.040 What a departure from the lunacy we had just a 0:30:19.080 --> 0:30:21.160 couple of years ago. This is how they tried to 0:30:21.200 --> 0:30:25.280 recruit under Biden and guess what, it didn't go too well. 0:30:26.600 --> 0:30:31.959 Although he had a fairly typical childhood took ballet, played violin. 0:30:32.840 --> 0:30:34.440 I also marched for equality. 0:30:35.520 --> 0:30:37.760 I like to think I've been defending freedom from an 0:30:37.800 --> 0:30:39.320 early age. 0:30:40.400 --> 0:30:43.160 Can you are to take the subtle difference there? Just 0:30:43.200 --> 0:30:44.280 a subtle difference. 0:30:44.880 --> 0:30:47.680 And you know what, even before the new Ads, as 0:30:47.720 --> 0:30:51.760 soon as Donald Trump secured his second term, recruitment numbers 0:30:51.880 --> 0:30:54.800 went through the roof. You see, Trump was clear about 0:30:54.840 --> 0:30:58.240 his vision for the country, his vision for the armed forces, 0:30:58.760 --> 0:31:03.640 and his triumph saw a big surgeon Americans joining the army. Indeed, 0:31:03.680 --> 0:31:06.400 in December twenty twenty four, the US Army had its 0:31:06.480 --> 0:31:11.280 best recruiting number in twelve years. In January that had 0:31:11.640 --> 0:31:15.520 their best recruiting numbers in fifteen years. See Leadership matters, 0:31:15.560 --> 0:31:19.920 strength matters, and respecting the wishes of the majority, also 0:31:19.960 --> 0:31:23.920 known as democracy matters. Something for our politicians to ponder. 0:31:28.760 --> 0:31:32.400 Excellent reta. Well, we're now joined by geologists Professor Ian 0:31:32.480 --> 0:31:34.920 Plymer live here in the studio. Ian, great to have 0:31:35.000 --> 0:31:37.800 you here, as always tell me about that tie of yours. 0:31:37.800 --> 0:31:39.880 It's caught my eye and the viewers will want to 0:31:39.880 --> 0:31:42.520 know the full story. There I've set you an opening here. 0:31:43.880 --> 0:31:45.680 To mar A Lago Club tie. 0:31:45.760 --> 0:31:48.120 I've been to mar Lago a couple of times, and 0:31:48.160 --> 0:31:51.680 I wear this tie on important occasions today, as she 0:31:51.720 --> 0:31:52.480 accept of course. 0:31:53.000 --> 0:31:55.080 And you were most recently there for the inn. 0:31:55.160 --> 0:31:58.840 I was in Washington for the inauguration. It started with 0:31:58.920 --> 0:32:02.840 a rally, a pretty cold night, and it was interesting 0:32:02.840 --> 0:32:06.120 to see the profile of the people. These were disenfranchised people. 0:32:06.200 --> 0:32:10.720 These were people who were suffering from the high electricity costs, 0:32:10.760 --> 0:32:17.560 from unemployment, from basically a deluded leader. And these people 0:32:18.760 --> 0:32:23.080 really are getting supported by a leader called Trump. And 0:32:23.120 --> 0:32:25.760 he's a phenomenon. We will not see the likes of 0:32:25.800 --> 0:32:30.200 another Trump again in our lives, an absolute phenomenon. And 0:32:30.320 --> 0:32:33.960 he does something which our politicians could learn from. He 0:32:34.040 --> 0:32:36.880 makes a promise and he actually sticks to it. Now 0:32:37.320 --> 0:32:40.680 that's really unusual. And we're all here waiting for our 0:32:40.680 --> 0:32:44.080 two hundred and seventy five dollars. That was a promatus. 0:32:44.640 --> 0:32:49.200 No one's got that money. So Trump is just bulldozing 0:32:49.240 --> 0:32:52.080 through policy which people knew he was going to do. 0:32:52.440 --> 0:32:57.000 Now at his rallies, these were incredible, warmed up by 0:32:57.000 --> 0:33:00.239 people like Elon Musk, Meghan Kelly who view you as 0:33:00.280 --> 0:33:03.960 would know as a regular on Paul Murray Live. It 0:33:04.040 --> 0:33:06.880 was absolute phenomenal and here is a man that can 0:33:06.960 --> 0:33:09.800 have the crowd eating out of his hand, and he 0:33:09.880 --> 0:33:13.600 does something very unusual. He speaks the truth and people 0:33:13.640 --> 0:33:14.360 actually like that. 0:33:15.000 --> 0:33:18.400 Now he's promised, he's already pulled out of the Paris Agreement, 0:33:18.480 --> 0:33:23.080 he's abandoned at zero. What can the coalition learn from 0:33:23.200 --> 0:33:24.080 Donald Trump? 0:33:24.320 --> 0:33:29.000 In Well, I can learn an enormous amount. The US, China, India, 0:33:29.120 --> 0:33:32.960 they're not in Paris. We once had the cheapest, most 0:33:33.040 --> 0:33:37.800 reliable energy systems in the world. We had coal giving 0:33:37.880 --> 0:33:40.360 us very cheap power in Victoria, a little bit more 0:33:40.360 --> 0:33:43.000 expensive in New South Wales and Queensland and Western Australia 0:33:43.040 --> 0:33:44.400 and South Australia. 0:33:43.920 --> 0:33:45.400 But we had cheap power. 0:33:45.800 --> 0:33:49.240 We have lost that because people have followed an ideological path. 0:33:49.560 --> 0:33:53.760 And this ideological path allegedly is underpinned by science. Now, 0:33:53.760 --> 0:33:56.720 if you follow the science, there is no science that 0:33:56.840 --> 0:33:58.920 demonstrates that human emissions. 0:33:58.480 --> 0:34:00.920 Drive global warming. Why are we doing it? 0:34:01.320 --> 0:34:03.120 So we're seeing countries. 0:34:02.760 --> 0:34:05.800 Like Germany and the UK go out backwards because they're 0:34:05.800 --> 0:34:09.520 following this renewables path. Trump has used something that's very 0:34:09.600 --> 0:34:12.920 very rare. It's called common sense, and going down the 0:34:12.960 --> 0:34:16.280 path was saying we have cheap coal. We have plenty 0:34:16.320 --> 0:34:20.359 of oil, not much uranium in the US, but they 0:34:20.440 --> 0:34:26.279 imported from Canada and the US as only following the 0:34:26.400 --> 0:34:30.520 cheapest path for energy that leads to a big manufacturing industry. 0:34:30.560 --> 0:34:33.640 We have no manufacturing industry now in this country because 0:34:33.680 --> 0:34:36.840 we've destroyed our energy system. So mister Dutton has to 0:34:37.000 --> 0:34:41.520 think very carefully about Paris. He actually has to think 0:34:41.640 --> 0:34:44.600 very carefully about the farms we are destroying with solar 0:34:44.600 --> 0:34:48.000 panels and wind turbines and power lines going across them. 0:34:48.040 --> 0:34:49.960 And James has had his hand up four times. 0:34:50.320 --> 0:34:51.920 Yes, the boy at the back, I'm. 0:34:51.719 --> 0:34:54.000 Going to ask you about this because I want your 0:34:54.000 --> 0:34:57.920 author I want your opinion on you know, what should 0:34:57.960 --> 0:35:01.279 Peter Dutton then be said, because he has said in 0:35:01.320 --> 0:35:04.480 the past he's going to stick around in Paris because 0:35:04.680 --> 0:35:06.279 you know, while we're in it, it is too hard 0:35:06.280 --> 0:35:09.440 to change or whatever. Yet, what I'm really interested in, 0:35:09.480 --> 0:35:11.319 you know, I don't know geology, but I do know 0:35:11.440 --> 0:35:14.520 something about economics and business. BP has said we are 0:35:14.560 --> 0:35:17.000 retreating from net zero. Macquarie Bank and all of these 0:35:17.040 --> 0:35:19.640 banks around the world are all say we are pulling back. 0:35:19.560 --> 0:35:20.200 From net zero. 0:35:20.200 --> 0:35:24.040 We are going to invest in fossil projects again, because 0:35:24.600 --> 0:35:26.480 that's where the money is. And if we don't have energy, 0:35:26.680 --> 0:35:29.960 we're not going to have economies. Why do you think 0:35:30.000 --> 0:35:32.840 the Coalition seems to be trying to garner votes in 0:35:32.960 --> 0:35:35.120 these sort of inner city seats where they still care 0:35:35.160 --> 0:35:38.960 about Paris, when it's out of the regions that people 0:35:38.960 --> 0:35:40.839 are saying, no, we've got to get out of this 0:35:40.920 --> 0:35:43.960 because this is destroying our communities, it's destroying our economy, 0:35:43.960 --> 0:35:44.880 it's strong our future. 0:35:45.360 --> 0:35:48.360 Well ready to touch on it in her editorial, the 0:35:48.440 --> 0:35:51.560 Parliamentary Liberal Party has wits. They're in the Senate and 0:35:51.560 --> 0:35:54.040 they're in the Laoah House and it's very hard for 0:35:54.080 --> 0:35:57.600 the leader sometimes to lead on matters of principle which 0:35:57.600 --> 0:35:59.240 are going to be for the benefit of the country, 0:35:59.280 --> 0:36:01.360 when you've got wet who are in the wrong party. 0:36:01.640 --> 0:36:03.000 Mister Dutton should lead. 0:36:03.080 --> 0:36:05.759 He should say, as a matter of principle, we want 0:36:05.760 --> 0:36:08.359 people to have cheap electricity in this country. We don't 0:36:08.400 --> 0:36:12.480 want these jaw dropping electricity bills that people are getting 0:36:12.480 --> 0:36:13.560 because of renewables. 0:36:13.600 --> 0:36:15.200 We want to have energy. 0:36:15.000 --> 0:36:18.319 Supporting industry and creating jobs. And he has to lead, 0:36:18.560 --> 0:36:21.640 and if he doesn't want to lead, he can then say, well, 0:36:21.960 --> 0:36:24.320 we have the biggest economy in the world just dropping 0:36:24.320 --> 0:36:28.400 that zero. We have growing economies like China and India 0:36:28.800 --> 0:36:32.520 that are not having that zero. China's building coal power 0:36:32.520 --> 0:36:35.000 stations like they're going out of fashion. We need to 0:36:35.080 --> 0:36:38.000 rebuild coal fired power stations. We need to have nuclear. 0:36:38.040 --> 0:36:40.960 We need to have a huge amount of baseload power 0:36:41.440 --> 0:36:45.040 with a peak load coming from gas and from hydro. 0:36:45.400 --> 0:36:49.040 Now we once had that system. Electricity was cheap. It 0:36:49.200 --> 0:36:52.120 isn't and we're all paying. And some people are paying 0:36:52.120 --> 0:36:56.239 with their jobs, some farmers and are losing their productive 0:36:56.280 --> 0:36:59.919 capability because they're getting these massive new power lines put 0:37:00.120 --> 0:37:01.600 over their properties. 0:37:01.080 --> 0:37:03.960 To bring renewable energy. 0:37:03.719 --> 0:37:06.359 From somewhere out in the Donga into the cities, and 0:37:06.600 --> 0:37:09.600 they can't operate equipment underneath those power lines, so they've 0:37:09.640 --> 0:37:12.920 lost acreage and they've lost areas which produce food. 0:37:13.239 --> 0:37:14.640 This is an absent travesty. 0:37:14.920 --> 0:37:19.160 A lot of the votes are in the areas around 0:37:19.239 --> 0:37:22.279 the edge of cities and in semi rural areas. Mister 0:37:22.360 --> 0:37:25.640 Darton should think callously and think, I want to chase 0:37:25.680 --> 0:37:29.040 the traditional labor vote. And these people are being destroyed 0:37:29.040 --> 0:37:32.200 by labor policies. Why should we have the Libs as 0:37:32.200 --> 0:37:34.160 a labor light, which currently they are. 0:37:34.440 --> 0:37:39.399 Well, we've seen that political realignment in the US, we've 0:37:39.400 --> 0:37:41.640 sent it in the UK, we've sent it in Australia. 0:37:41.760 --> 0:37:44.200 The Liberal Party seems to be the last bunch of 0:37:44.239 --> 0:37:46.560 people to know that there has been a switch. 0:37:46.640 --> 0:37:48.800 Those inner city affluent areas are going. 0:37:48.640 --> 0:37:53.600 Left and the working middle class are increasingly going right. 0:37:53.800 --> 0:37:56.200 What about the argument they may put forward, while we 0:37:56.239 --> 0:37:59.120 don't need to leave Paris, we can still have these 0:37:59.160 --> 0:38:00.480 net zero target it's. 0:38:00.280 --> 0:38:03.719 Because we'll get there via nuclear. What's your response to. 0:38:03.600 --> 0:38:07.839 That, Well, that argument is invalid because nuclear is going 0:38:07.840 --> 0:38:09.960 to take a long time. The second thing is you 0:38:10.000 --> 0:38:13.839 can leave Paris very very easily. It's no difficulty at all. 0:38:14.320 --> 0:38:16.759 And the third thing is we have to think of 0:38:16.800 --> 0:38:19.719 the punter, and the punter gets an absolute shock when 0:38:19.719 --> 0:38:21.719 they look at the electricity bill. The QUICKI you can 0:38:21.719 --> 0:38:24.080 bring that down, the better the more coal we can 0:38:24.080 --> 0:38:26.919 put into the system, the better we have coal fired 0:38:26.960 --> 0:38:30.440 power stations. They are discriminated against because they're black, and 0:38:30.480 --> 0:38:32.960 we shouldn't have that sort of discrimination, as we're told, 0:38:33.520 --> 0:38:38.560 And so we are actually destroying systems which can provide 0:38:38.600 --> 0:38:40.840 us with cheap twenty four to seven power and making 0:38:40.840 --> 0:38:41.680 it very expensive. 0:38:41.840 --> 0:38:42.479 It can be done. 0:38:42.520 --> 0:38:44.840 Oh a boy at the back of the cheeky one. 0:38:44.760 --> 0:38:51.160 Sir, sir, we saw Albow being heckled by about windmills. 0:38:51.200 --> 0:38:54.080 Now Donald Trump has said that's it. No more windmills. 0:38:54.120 --> 0:38:57.080 They kill whales. They're inefficient. If you believe in the 0:38:57.120 --> 0:39:00.399 carbon nonsense, they create as much as they suppose. We save. 0:39:01.120 --> 0:39:03.920 Albo is being heck. You're right that labor is so 0:39:04.160 --> 0:39:08.600 vulnerable because there's so many traditional labor, blue collar supporterers 0:39:08.680 --> 0:39:13.399 who don't buy this stuff. So again, why is it 0:39:13.480 --> 0:39:17.520 that windmills, for example, and Bowen's entire kind of solar 0:39:17.560 --> 0:39:21.520 panels explain why this can never work? 0:39:22.239 --> 0:39:26.000 Well, Bowen is supporting China with solar panels and windmills, 0:39:26.440 --> 0:39:30.880 and they're being supported at our expense. It won't work 0:39:30.920 --> 0:39:33.960 because the sun doesn't shine all the time. It's pretty 0:39:33.960 --> 0:39:38.520 obvious that we have wind routs, so we can't provide 0:39:38.600 --> 0:39:41.560 electricity twenty four to seven. The second thing is that 0:39:41.640 --> 0:39:44.319 the extra grunt that you get from wind and sol 0:39:44.520 --> 0:39:47.280 is not that that you get from coal and nuclear 0:39:47.320 --> 0:39:51.520 and gas. So if you want power for an industrial economy, 0:39:52.120 --> 0:39:54.239 seabreezes and sunbeams don't do it. 0:39:54.280 --> 0:39:55.840 They don't have enough energy. 0:39:56.239 --> 0:40:01.000 Now, mister Bowen is a very interesting character. 0:40:00.719 --> 0:40:03.680 Because he's the best thing the liberals of God, and. 0:40:03.640 --> 0:40:04.719 He should stay there. 0:40:04.760 --> 0:40:08.240 And following this ridiculous ideology with people in marginal seats 0:40:08.840 --> 0:40:11.720 looking at the electricity bill saying I'm going to vote 0:40:12.080 --> 0:40:16.080 on my electricity bill, and that can be capitalized on 0:40:16.239 --> 0:40:17.040 by the opposition. 0:40:17.640 --> 0:40:18.640 It's a vote winner. 0:40:18.800 --> 0:40:21.160 Turt it on that electricity on that you know, that 0:40:21.280 --> 0:40:24.160 that grunt you talked about about the electricity. It seems 0:40:24.160 --> 0:40:26.439 to be also just bizarre that at the same time 0:40:26.480 --> 0:40:29.160 they're doing all of this net zero stuff, whi's going 0:40:29.200 --> 0:40:34.000 to reduce our electricity, building produced power up. They're forcing 0:40:34.040 --> 0:40:36.919 us all or trying to force people into evs, many 0:40:36.960 --> 0:40:39.440 of which again come from China, and I was just 0:40:39.480 --> 0:40:40.240 reading earlier. 0:40:40.600 --> 0:40:41.560 There's a whole. 0:40:41.440 --> 0:40:44.920 New range of Chinese evs that come flooding the market 0:40:44.960 --> 0:40:47.440 here because of the way they wrote the laws, so 0:40:47.520 --> 0:40:49.919 you can have hybrids get the tax benefit, but only 0:40:49.960 --> 0:40:53.560 the evs. This seems like we are trying to make 0:40:53.640 --> 0:40:57.200 everything more electric while we're making our electricity less reliable. 0:40:57.239 --> 0:40:58.360 It seems suicidal to me. 0:40:59.160 --> 0:41:02.680 Well, I didn't know outside the studio. You're black two 0:41:02.840 --> 0:41:10.960 door V eight Mustang, so obviously you have an evs 0:41:11.080 --> 0:41:15.080 are really not for a country like Australia unless you 0:41:15.239 --> 0:41:17.960 do a couple of kilometers in the city and that's it. 0:41:18.360 --> 0:41:23.360 So evs are very expensive. They depreciate very quickly. We 0:41:23.440 --> 0:41:26.120 don't have a reliable power supply for them. If you 0:41:26.239 --> 0:41:28.480 dent underneath them, you basically have to throw the whole 0:41:28.560 --> 0:41:32.400 vehicle out. If you dent your Mustang, well it'll probably 0:41:32.400 --> 0:41:38.520 fall apart. But they're just not economical, and most countries 0:41:38.680 --> 0:41:43.920 are trying to avoid having evs yet bringing in legislation 0:41:44.040 --> 0:41:46.720 to make it more expensive to have an internal combustion engine. 0:41:47.160 --> 0:41:48.719 Yet they are more away from it now. 0:41:49.719 --> 0:41:53.160 Yeah, oh dear, this is what you mentioned, the two 0:41:53.200 --> 0:41:56.799 hundred and seventy five dollars gift that we never got 0:41:56.960 --> 0:42:02.000 the reduction in our inch bils. Never mind that my bills, 0:42:02.040 --> 0:42:04.040 and I would imagine the bills of many of the 0:42:04.040 --> 0:42:08.880 people watching have shot up by well, in my case, 0:42:08.920 --> 0:42:11.960 well over one thousand dollars. So forget about the two 0:42:12.080 --> 0:42:15.000 hundred and seventy five whenever're going to have a reckoning 0:42:15.560 --> 0:42:19.600 about the actual increases we've seen, and what sort of 0:42:19.600 --> 0:42:22.719 an opportunity does that present for the coalition in a 0:42:22.760 --> 0:42:25.560 cost of living election that they keep telling us this 0:42:25.600 --> 0:42:26.920 is all about cost of living. 0:42:27.160 --> 0:42:30.719 Well, it's a wonderful argument they can use. Where's my 0:42:30.719 --> 0:42:33.840 two hundred and seventy five dollars? You were promised this 0:42:33.880 --> 0:42:36.160 two hundred and seventy five. What has happened to your 0:42:36.200 --> 0:42:39.920 electricity bills gone up? These people are destroying your jobs, 0:42:39.960 --> 0:42:44.360 they're destroying your income, they're destroying your family, They're destroying 0:42:44.360 --> 0:42:47.440 this country. They should be taking the line of attacking 0:42:47.560 --> 0:42:51.120 very savagely that renewables don't work. Every time we put 0:42:51.160 --> 0:42:52.760 in more renewables. 0:42:52.120 --> 0:42:53.680 The cost of electricity goes up. 0:42:54.040 --> 0:42:58.120 It doesn't become more reliable because if you have no sun, 0:42:58.360 --> 0:43:00.239 it doesn't matter how much you've got there, you're not 0:43:00.239 --> 0:43:02.120 going to get more power. If you've got no wind, 0:43:02.239 --> 0:43:03.919 it doesn't matter how much you've got there, you won't 0:43:03.920 --> 0:43:04.520 get more power. 0:43:04.800 --> 0:43:08.920 We should stop calling it renewable and start calling it intermission. 0:43:09.320 --> 0:43:11.080 It is. 0:43:13.520 --> 0:43:16.360 The great thing about renewables is that the subsidition just 0:43:16.440 --> 0:43:18.200 keep coming, so they are renewable. 0:43:18.520 --> 0:43:21.919 Okay, tell us about investment. Because you work for many 0:43:21.920 --> 0:43:25.480 many years in the mining industry around the world. You 0:43:25.600 --> 0:43:30.440 know how mining investments and a big business manufacturing investment 0:43:30.480 --> 0:43:35.799 what they're looking for. Can you please explain the absolute 0:43:36.000 --> 0:43:40.759 carnage that net zero is doing to international investors. Now 0:43:40.800 --> 0:43:42.800 that you can look at Trump, they can go to America, 0:43:42.840 --> 0:43:45.640 they can go to China or India, all around the 0:43:45.640 --> 0:43:48.640 world without being burdened by these prices. 0:43:49.520 --> 0:43:53.560 What investment is very fickle, It moves very quickly. We 0:43:53.680 --> 0:43:57.160 had a couple of years ago the Japanese ambassador commented 0:43:57.160 --> 0:44:00.840 that this is becoming a very expensive country and uncertain 0:44:00.840 --> 0:44:03.879 countries who invest in and the Japanese have been very 0:44:03.880 --> 0:44:06.480 big investors in this country, and he was right. Japanese 0:44:06.520 --> 0:44:10.040 money has gone elsewhere. We do not invest in our 0:44:10.080 --> 0:44:12.760 own country. Despite the fact we've got trillions in super 0:44:13.200 --> 0:44:13.799 we do not. 0:44:13.920 --> 0:44:14.400 Invest in it. 0:44:17.440 --> 0:44:21.680 We have major projects that need money that create jobs, 0:44:21.800 --> 0:44:22.759 create taxation. 0:44:23.360 --> 0:44:25.280 We don't invest in our own country. 0:44:25.320 --> 0:44:29.200 We have American money, Japanese money, Korean money, money from 0:44:29.239 --> 0:44:29.920 the UK. 0:44:30.200 --> 0:44:31.680 And that is going elsewhere. 0:44:32.080 --> 0:44:35.800 And in my field, if I have a geological idea 0:44:36.120 --> 0:44:38.319 and then do all the drilling and put everything into 0:44:38.360 --> 0:44:41.480 practice and go through all the economic evaluations from that 0:44:41.680 --> 0:44:46.040 idea until we start to earn money. It's twenty five years, 0:44:46.480 --> 0:44:50.239 so you cannot change the investment rules overnight, which is 0:44:50.280 --> 0:44:53.560 what labor is doing, because it'll be our children and 0:44:53.600 --> 0:44:56.879 grandchildren who suffer from that, and they don't care. They're 0:44:56.880 --> 0:44:59.360 only interested in the three year term. And this is 0:44:59.360 --> 0:45:02.040 why you can not vote for someone that is not 0:45:02.160 --> 0:45:04.480 a leader and doesn't have vision. And this is where 0:45:05.239 --> 0:45:08.600 our a liberal party really have to lead and have 0:45:08.719 --> 0:45:11.840 a vision for the nation, not for getting re elected. 0:45:12.480 --> 0:45:15.719 Step up lives in climate Professor Plymber. Always great to 0:45:15.800 --> 0:45:18.240 chat to you here in the classroom, here in Professor 0:45:18.280 --> 0:45:22.120 Bline in classroom on Oursider's fantastic, thank you so much, 0:45:22.160 --> 0:45:24.360 we'll see you soon, and coming up after the break 0:45:24.360 --> 0:45:27.600 a bit more and net Zany madness, wacademia left you 0:45:27.680 --> 0:45:35.799 lunacy or here on Outsiders back in a text, Yes, 0:45:35.880 --> 0:45:40.160 welcome back to net Zany, the crazy world of net zero, 0:45:40.200 --> 0:45:42.839 where we now learn in America they're facing what they're 0:45:42.880 --> 0:45:47.640 calling snow oblivion. So you've got massive amounts of snow, 0:45:48.080 --> 0:45:52.960 six feet of snow across thirty US states, massive winter storms. 0:45:53.200 --> 0:45:55.680 But of course let's all focus on global warming. 0:45:56.320 --> 0:45:59.160 James, you know, it's so funny to me when you 0:45:59.239 --> 0:46:03.880 see these stories about you know, snow oblivion or Snowmageddon 0:46:04.040 --> 0:46:05.840 or whatever they call it, you know whatever, they have 0:46:05.920 --> 0:46:08.640 these big blizzards, because for years and years and years 0:46:08.680 --> 0:46:11.560 we've been told, oh, children who were born ten years ago, 0:46:11.640 --> 0:46:15.319 we'll never see snow again because of global warming. And 0:46:15.600 --> 0:46:17.439 you know, it's it's the whole sort of double game 0:46:17.480 --> 0:46:19.399 that they play. It's like, oh, well, there's not gonna 0:46:19.400 --> 0:46:21.040 be a snow because of global warming. Oh we've had 0:46:21.040 --> 0:46:24.400 a blizzard. Oh well, you know that blizzard that's also climb. 0:46:26.880 --> 0:46:28.800 That's what we had to go from global warming to 0:46:28.880 --> 0:46:31.400 climate change to explain. 0:46:31.000 --> 0:46:34.560 All the absolutely never forg about six months when they 0:46:34.600 --> 0:46:37.640 tried to make a climate chaos. It sounded like some 0:46:37.719 --> 0:46:39.640 sort of superhero climate chaos. 0:46:41.160 --> 0:46:45.680 We had even a more hyperbolic one, didn't we fromm Yes. 0:46:45.680 --> 0:46:53.160 Global boiling, boiling, boiling, global boiling occurring with and it's 0:46:53.200 --> 0:46:55.680 also not forget I wish we actually had the grab up. 0:46:55.719 --> 0:46:58.279 But do you recall a certe in Australia the year saying, 0:46:58.320 --> 0:46:59.880 you know, our dams will never. 0:46:59.760 --> 0:47:04.560 Fit and it is marketing and Queensland at the moment 0:47:05.040 --> 0:47:07.400 and the Queenslanders were told, along with the rest of 0:47:07.400 --> 0:47:10.160 Australia back in the early two thousands. We were told 0:47:10.480 --> 0:47:14.880 that's it, folks, it's permanent drought now because of engine 0:47:14.960 --> 0:47:19.000 and we spend people White people buy this garbage. Is utterly, utterly. 0:47:18.719 --> 0:47:20.680 Belo Why do they think people have the memories of 0:47:20.719 --> 0:47:23.239 goldfish that they don't remember what they saw us they 0:47:23.320 --> 0:47:24.680 told us thirty seconds. 0:47:24.440 --> 0:47:28.800 Before, because so many do, and the media works over 0:47:28.880 --> 0:47:32.800 time to make sure that's the case. If the media 0:47:33.120 --> 0:47:38.720 were honest practitioners here, they would be holding these predictions, 0:47:39.719 --> 0:47:41.960 hauling these people, making these predictions accountable. 0:47:41.960 --> 0:47:44.160 But they they just bury them. What they call it 0:47:44.200 --> 0:47:44.759 memory holding. 0:47:44.840 --> 0:47:45.040 Whatever. 0:47:45.360 --> 0:47:47.600 But what is interesting about this We talked with Professor 0:47:47.640 --> 0:47:51.360 Plimer there about how Macquarie Bank here in Australia. Apparently 0:47:51.400 --> 0:47:53.560 they were quite quiet and timid about it. They should 0:47:53.560 --> 0:47:55.640 have been yelling it from the rafters, yelling it from 0:47:55.640 --> 0:47:58.200 the rooftops. We're getting out of net zero. Invest in 0:47:58.239 --> 0:48:00.839 our bank because we're smart enough to realize we're out 0:48:00.880 --> 0:48:02.880 of that zero. That's what Macquarie should have done. But 0:48:02.920 --> 0:48:05.560 of course the bedwet is on the Macquary board route. 0:48:06.360 --> 0:48:09.239 But it is fascinating. You know, right now this is 0:48:09.280 --> 0:48:12.000 part of the Trump effect. The Trump offender is not 0:48:12.080 --> 0:48:15.120 only with this, but also you see this with company 0:48:15.120 --> 0:48:17.520 after company the United States. Google I think was one 0:48:17.520 --> 0:48:19.880 of the most recent was all say, all of that 0:48:20.160 --> 0:48:22.680 DEI stuff, all of the you know, all of the 0:48:22.719 --> 0:48:26.319 preferential treatment based on race and sex and gender and 0:48:26.560 --> 0:48:29.560 identity and all that, that's all gone. Now everybody has 0:48:29.600 --> 0:48:32.160 realized suddenly, you know, this is kind of like the 0:48:32.200 --> 0:48:35.880 Berlin Wall falling. Everybody has realized, we don't have to 0:48:35.960 --> 0:48:39.080 believe this stuff anymore. We don't have to mount the 0:48:39.080 --> 0:48:40.040 words of the regime. 0:48:40.280 --> 0:48:44.719 It's over, it's done. And I think that's part of Australia. 0:48:44.800 --> 0:48:47.640 Yet, well not in Australia we are again the outlier. 0:48:47.719 --> 0:48:52.600 But the looking at what the money USAID was distributing, 0:48:52.640 --> 0:48:56.399 where that's going, It really is just established. So much 0:48:56.480 --> 0:48:59.960 of this left wing agenda, this so called progressive war 0:49:00.280 --> 0:49:04.320 insanity that we've all been dealing with. It's not organic, 0:49:04.400 --> 0:49:07.720 it's not grassroots. It's very much fed by a small 0:49:07.760 --> 0:49:11.560 group of activists who have relied on taxpayer funds, using 0:49:11.600 --> 0:49:13.359 our own money to shove this. 0:49:13.440 --> 0:49:17.040 Crack down question the USA, I D so the new 0:49:17.400 --> 0:49:22.280 climate change guy, sorry Lee Zellen, who's the new climate 0:49:22.440 --> 0:49:25.360 energy guy, and Trump's regime has said that he's just 0:49:25.480 --> 0:49:28.800 canceled wait for this Reta and James a fifty million 0:49:28.880 --> 0:49:35.040 dollar Biden era environmental justice Climate Justice Alliance thing which 0:49:35.120 --> 0:49:40.320 was all about climate justice travels through a free Palestine. 0:49:40.600 --> 0:49:46.680 So this is well, that's more than the revelations about us. 0:49:46.840 --> 0:49:50.520 It have been shocking because has been this huge slush 0:49:50.600 --> 0:49:53.879 fund for the left. There's this amazing thing here that's 0:49:53.920 --> 0:49:55.759 happened now. If you go and you look at real 0:49:55.840 --> 0:49:59.400 estate listings around Washington, d C. They have been flooded 0:49:59.719 --> 0:50:02.520 with new listings of billion dollar plus hobbs that are 0:50:02.560 --> 0:50:05.399 on the market because suddenly all of this money, all 0:50:05.440 --> 0:50:07.799 of this griff has been cut. 0:50:07.560 --> 0:50:09.359 And all the people on the boards of all these 0:50:09.560 --> 0:50:12.440 NGOs who've been sitting there taking tax dollars pays. I 0:50:12.600 --> 0:50:15.040 bet it's the same in Australia. And I can't wait 0:50:15.080 --> 0:50:18.520 for just Enterprice to get into par into government and 0:50:18.560 --> 0:50:21.120 be in a position which Dunton has promised, where they 0:50:21.120 --> 0:50:25.840 will start doing the same thing here and investigating government inefficiency. 0:50:25.960 --> 0:50:28.480 The Canbra swamp. We have the highest paid public servants 0:50:28.520 --> 0:50:28.960 in the world. 0:50:29.120 --> 0:50:32.560 It's to have the appetite to actually tackle it. We 0:50:32.640 --> 0:50:37.120 talked about the ABC before they know what the ABC does. 0:50:37.160 --> 0:50:39.359 They know it's costs over a billion dollars a year. 0:50:40.200 --> 0:50:42.200 They've made absolutely no. 0:50:42.280 --> 0:50:44.440 Well, I have dropped some character from the end, so 0:50:44.560 --> 0:50:47.600 looking for you finally because he had had some dubious artworks. 0:50:47.600 --> 0:50:49.920 I'm glad about that tiny little win. But anyway, we 0:50:49.960 --> 0:50:52.719 take the small wins where we can. Back after the 0:50:52.760 --> 0:51:00.880 break in a tick. Hello, you're watching Outsiders with Triage 0:51:00.960 --> 0:51:05.520 Nurse Panahee, Locum Register Morrow and myself fake doctor Dean. 0:51:06.280 --> 0:51:09.440 The story of the two nurses at Bankstown Hospital is 0:51:09.680 --> 0:51:12.120 no laughing matter, well not for any of us who 0:51:12.239 --> 0:51:15.400 might one day be their patience. That is. I know 0:51:15.440 --> 0:51:18.840 you've seen the video many times, and in the immediate aftermath, 0:51:18.920 --> 0:51:21.880 there was a distinct lack of an outpouring of heartfelt 0:51:21.920 --> 0:51:25.600 apologies or outraged condemnation of the pair from all those 0:51:25.840 --> 0:51:29.480 so called Muslim community leaders, mayors and members of parliament. 0:51:30.120 --> 0:51:33.520 Perhaps they'd been shamed into silence, but other members of 0:51:33.520 --> 0:51:37.000 the Islamic faith angrily took to social media to somehow 0:51:37.000 --> 0:51:38.960 suggest that the video was a put up job, or 0:51:38.960 --> 0:51:41.680 the actions have been provoked or whatever. The police played 0:51:41.719 --> 0:51:44.359 some ridiculous game of wanting to see the full video 0:51:44.480 --> 0:51:48.920 before pressing any charges. Will the E Safety Commissioner suddenly 0:51:48.960 --> 0:51:52.240 pop up and start demanding the video be taken down 0:51:52.800 --> 0:51:56.160 as she did over the last outrage by an Australian 0:51:56.239 --> 0:52:00.280 migrant in the Western Suburbs threatening violence against another Australia allion. 0:52:00.600 --> 0:52:04.279 That attack on Bishop Mari Mari. We shall see. But 0:52:04.719 --> 0:52:09.120 on Friday, the Israeli man involved released the full unedited video. 0:52:09.239 --> 0:52:10.080 So here it is. 0:52:12.800 --> 0:52:18.319 You know what, man good, Harry wo Man pretty good? 0:52:18.400 --> 0:52:19.120 Are you a nurse? 0:52:19.160 --> 0:52:19.760 A doctor? 0:52:20.640 --> 0:52:21.600 I'm a doctor moment? 0:52:21.960 --> 0:52:23.160 A doctor for what? 0:52:25.760 --> 0:52:26.440 In hospital? 0:52:26.480 --> 0:52:26.680 What? 0:52:26.680 --> 0:52:28.359 What? What? What? What about you? Where you're from? 0:52:28.680 --> 0:52:31.040 I'm from Israel, from the whole land. 0:52:32.000 --> 0:52:34.560 You know what, I'm gonna be really honest with you, 0:52:34.680 --> 0:52:36.719 all right, I'm gonna be really honest with you. You 0:52:36.760 --> 0:52:41.080 actually got a really really beautiful eyes. But I'm so 0:52:41.200 --> 0:52:43.759 upset that Israeli like eventually you're gonna get killed and 0:52:43.760 --> 0:52:47.000 you're gonna go to Jehanna Mia. I think it's pretty honest. 0:52:47.000 --> 0:52:49.040 I should stay in this, in this world for longer. 0:52:49.440 --> 0:52:51.400 Why do you think? Why do you think I'm gonna 0:52:51.400 --> 0:52:52.239 get killed. 0:52:53.719 --> 0:52:57.200 Because Sarla one day God will maybe because I served 0:52:57.200 --> 0:53:02.600 in the IDEF That's why that definitely correct, that's the reason, 0:53:02.640 --> 0:53:04.759 because I served in the idea of what's the what's 0:53:04.760 --> 0:53:05.600 the problem with that? 0:53:05.640 --> 0:53:06.560 What's the issue with that? 0:53:07.520 --> 0:53:09.080 I killed innocent paper. 0:53:08.880 --> 0:53:11.239 That was protecting my country. 0:53:12.080 --> 0:53:14.440 So you kill innocent people to protect your country? What 0:53:14.600 --> 0:53:16.520 what kind of soul do you have? You have no soul? 0:53:16.800 --> 0:53:20.480 In the war, people die as you know, they started 0:53:20.560 --> 0:53:23.240 the war. Hundred who started? 0:53:23.920 --> 0:53:25.800 Okay, your time will who started? 0:53:25.960 --> 0:53:27.200 Who started this war? 0:53:28.120 --> 0:53:28.560 You guys? 0:53:28.560 --> 0:53:31.160 Who elected Hamas? Who elected Hamas? 0:53:31.920 --> 0:53:33.560 It's Palestine country. 0:53:33.239 --> 0:53:33.479 Not. 0:53:34.960 --> 0:53:35.640 What her name. 0:53:37.120 --> 0:53:40.400 We're talking politely here, We're talking politely here. 0:53:40.560 --> 0:53:42.040 One day, one day. 0:53:41.880 --> 0:53:44.600 One day, one day, time will come and you will 0:53:44.680 --> 0:53:45.680 die the most. 0:53:45.760 --> 0:53:52.000 You sprayed hate, we sprayed positivity, We spread protection, We spread. 0:53:51.640 --> 0:53:54.360 This intimate pimate. 0:53:53.680 --> 0:53:57.719 And you spread when the time comes, how are you doctors? 0:53:58.560 --> 0:53:59.800 I want you to remember? 0:54:00.080 --> 0:54:05.560 Have okay, okay, I have a question though, all right, 0:54:05.640 --> 0:54:06.680 all right, for sure, I. 0:54:06.560 --> 0:54:07.160 Have a question. 0:54:07.239 --> 0:54:07.399 Though. 0:54:08.200 --> 0:54:08.840 I have a question. 0:54:09.080 --> 0:54:11.520 Let's say let's say an Israeli. 0:54:12.600 --> 0:54:13.680 God forbid them. 0:54:13.800 --> 0:54:15.200 I won't treat them, I'll kill them. 0:54:15.560 --> 0:54:16.360 You'll kill them. 0:54:16.440 --> 0:54:19.200 So if an Israeli is in the in Australia and 0:54:19.200 --> 0:54:22.319 that's forbid, something happened to him and he comes to 0:54:22.400 --> 0:54:25.240 your hospital, would you kill him? 0:54:25.400 --> 0:54:29.200 Okay, you have no idea how many Israeli A dog 0:54:29.280 --> 0:54:30.400 came to this hospital and. 0:54:32.160 --> 0:54:40.279 Nahanna, As far as I'm concerned, the unedited version, that 0:54:40.400 --> 0:54:44.200 version is even more damning than the original edited version. 0:54:44.239 --> 0:54:46.560 In the edited version, you could perhaps imagine that some 0:54:46.640 --> 0:54:49.880 kind of heated exchange or provocation had occurred, that it 0:54:49.960 --> 0:54:54.000 may be fired off the anti Semitic trade, but that 0:54:54.040 --> 0:54:57.120 clearly didn't happen. What is so chilling in the unedited 0:54:57.200 --> 0:55:01.920 version is how casual and ordinary two nurses in their comments, 0:55:02.040 --> 0:55:05.799 their threats, and their boasts. It was the German philosopher 0:55:06.000 --> 0:55:09.560 Hannah arent who coined the phrase the banality of evil 0:55:09.920 --> 0:55:12.600 during the trial of Adolf Eichmann, and it seems even 0:55:12.640 --> 0:55:16.600 more fitting here. These two nurses could, for all the world, 0:55:16.719 --> 0:55:19.839 be in any online chat room talking about a football game, 0:55:20.040 --> 0:55:22.160 or a new set of rules at work or whatever. 0:55:22.480 --> 0:55:26.000 The true horror of what they are not only suggesting 0:55:26.040 --> 0:55:31.319 that casually bragging about is the stuff of absolute nightmares, 0:55:32.200 --> 0:55:35.360 yet so commonplace and acceptable to them is the idea 0:55:35.400 --> 0:55:39.360 of murdering Jews, that they have no hesitation in chatting 0:55:39.360 --> 0:55:43.000 to a complete stranger about it. And the only conclusion 0:55:43.040 --> 0:55:46.360 I could make is that they have either heard, said 0:55:46.560 --> 0:55:51.000 or thought such ideas so many times before that they 0:55:51.000 --> 0:55:55.600 are totally immune to the absolute barbarity of what they 0:55:55.640 --> 0:56:00.400 are suggesting. Commonplace. How commonplace are these views and how 0:56:00.440 --> 0:56:04.960 commonplace is this hatred of Jewish people by Muslim Australians. 0:56:06.160 --> 0:56:09.200 That is the most fundamental question that this video raises. 0:56:09.920 --> 0:56:13.280 Dr Jimal Reefi, a prominent and widely respected Muslim Australian, 0:56:13.600 --> 0:56:16.719 was adamant that these views are not commonplace. 0:56:18.360 --> 0:56:21.200 These two people do not represent the view that is 0:56:21.239 --> 0:56:26.239 held in the Muslims community. The majority of the Muslim's community. 0:56:26.800 --> 0:56:31.320 They have condemned what they have done and they don't 0:56:31.400 --> 0:56:34.640 agree with it, and we don't hold these view whatsoever. 0:56:35.000 --> 0:56:38.360 We would like to be part of the society we enjoy, 0:56:38.600 --> 0:56:41.840 or we're living in Australia or we're offspring living in 0:56:41.920 --> 0:56:45.400 here and we'll want to be part of nation building. 0:56:47.440 --> 0:56:49.799 Welcome those comments and I hope they are widespread, But 0:56:49.880 --> 0:56:53.000 unfortunately there's plenty of evidence that Dr Reefe is perhaps 0:56:53.120 --> 0:56:57.560 unaware of how widespread the hatred of Jews is in 0:56:57.680 --> 0:57:02.920 various Australian Muslim communities. Obviously, not every public health worker 0:57:02.960 --> 0:57:06.520 who supports a Palestinian state or demonstrates against the war 0:57:06.560 --> 0:57:10.160 in Gaza wants to go around murdering Jews or wishes 0:57:10.160 --> 0:57:14.520 any harm to any of their patients. But if I 0:57:14.600 --> 0:57:17.480 were Jewish, I would probably not be too keen to 0:57:17.520 --> 0:57:20.920 go into a hospital staffed by medics and nurses who 0:57:21.000 --> 0:57:24.240 are so passionate about their support for Palestine that they 0:57:24.240 --> 0:57:27.320 are eager to take to the streets like this character 0:57:28.360 --> 0:57:29.120 in the group. 0:57:28.920 --> 0:57:33.560 Of colleagues of mine for Nurses and Midlife for Palestine 0:57:33.560 --> 0:57:40.320 in October twenty twenty three. Maintain your rage, continue to 0:57:40.480 --> 0:57:44.480 stand on it super In short, a sinus terrorists and 0:57:44.560 --> 0:57:47.160 their reprehensible actions are held. 0:57:46.920 --> 0:57:48.040 To it, it counts. 0:57:49.200 --> 0:57:51.760 Nor if I were Jewish would I be particularly thrilled 0:57:51.840 --> 0:57:55.640 to be triaged by this character? And if I were 0:57:55.720 --> 0:57:59.080 Jewish and I met this security guy at the emergency 0:57:59.120 --> 0:58:02.400 door of the hospital with his political pro Palestine badges 0:58:02.480 --> 0:58:05.000 on full display, I might decide to go home and 0:58:05.160 --> 0:58:08.800 see my GP instead. Speaking on this network last week, 0:58:08.840 --> 0:58:11.680 Michael Kroger made a terrifying claim. 0:58:12.720 --> 0:58:15.200 I just saw an email from someone who was going 0:58:15.200 --> 0:58:17.320 to have an operation there. A Jewish man have an 0:58:17.320 --> 0:58:19.720 operation there a few years ago under the Liberal government, 0:58:19.720 --> 0:58:22.680 by the way, not under men's. He canceled his operation 0:58:22.760 --> 0:58:25.360 at Bankstown Hospital because a friend of his who worked 0:58:25.360 --> 0:58:28.240 at the hospital said, if a Jewish don't come here, 0:58:29.040 --> 0:58:32.560 they spit on the food of the Jews before it's delivered. 0:58:33.280 --> 0:58:36.920 They don't do mandatory post ops. They leave their beds 0:58:36.960 --> 0:58:39.640 soiled for as long as they possibly can. They make 0:58:39.760 --> 0:58:43.720 life as difficult as possible for Jewish patients. So he said, 0:58:43.720 --> 0:58:46.480 I canceled my operation of the hospital because of that. 0:58:48.240 --> 0:58:52.760 So again we must ask how commonplace is this stuff? 0:58:53.120 --> 0:58:57.400 Far too common, that's for sure. One brave nurse, Sharon Stollier, 0:58:57.880 --> 0:59:01.920 raised the alarm about precise this level of anti semitism 0:59:02.240 --> 0:59:06.280 within New South Wales hospitals months ago, but instead of 0:59:06.440 --> 0:59:10.240 the health bureaucrats doing something about it, she became the 0:59:10.280 --> 0:59:14.480 subject of multiple complaints and the regulators ended up harassing 0:59:14.520 --> 0:59:16.200 her and investigating her. 0:59:17.760 --> 0:59:20.480 I raise the alarm about this not long after October 0:59:20.520 --> 0:59:23.600 seventh happened when nurses and midwives were chanting from the 0:59:23.680 --> 0:59:26.880 River to the Sea while wearing New Southwest Health uniforms. 0:59:27.000 --> 0:59:29.600 I wrote an open letter to nurses and midwives explained 0:59:29.680 --> 0:59:32.440 that this chant is a call for the annihilation of 0:59:32.480 --> 0:59:35.680 Jews and that they should not be shouting this genocidal chat. 0:59:35.840 --> 0:59:39.200 I ask for the end of a genocidal chat by 0:59:39.280 --> 0:59:43.080 New South Wales health staff while wearing their uniforms. Instead, 0:59:43.200 --> 0:59:45.840 I get for more corrective comments and threats of jail time. 0:59:47.400 --> 0:59:50.320 Unbelievable and the process is always is the punishment. She 0:59:50.320 --> 0:59:54.680 gets punished. Dare to criticize antie Israeli extremism and you 0:59:54.680 --> 0:59:58.160 yourself become the problem. That's how they think here. Just 0:59:58.200 --> 1:00:00.760 like when New South Wales police are host did none 1:00:00.800 --> 1:00:04.400 of the vile opera house mob chanting wears or gas 1:00:04.520 --> 1:00:06.480 the Jews or whatever right in front of them, But 1:00:06.600 --> 1:00:10.160 instead they arrested that one lone guy, Mark Spiro, who 1:00:10.200 --> 1:00:11.960 we had him on the show, you'll remember, who was 1:00:12.040 --> 1:00:15.280 carrying an Israeli flag to an event supposed to commemorate 1:00:15.400 --> 1:00:18.600 the Israelis who died on the after October seventh problems. 1:00:19.400 --> 1:00:22.400 But back to the two Bankstown nurses, they have now 1:00:22.440 --> 1:00:25.080 had their registration suspended by the New South Wales Nursing 1:00:25.080 --> 1:00:29.880 at Midwifrey Council. Albo's Health Minister Mark Butler said quote, 1:00:29.920 --> 1:00:33.520 they're sickening comments and the hatred that underpins them have 1:00:33.680 --> 1:00:37.240 no place in our health system and no place anywhere 1:00:37.240 --> 1:00:41.800 in Australia. Fine words, except Mark, it appears they do 1:00:41.880 --> 1:00:46.000 have a place in Australia, certainly under your labor teals government, 1:00:46.480 --> 1:00:49.720 on the streets and in the campuses of our main cities. 1:00:49.720 --> 1:00:52.600 In fact, again, if I were Jewish, I would think 1:00:52.640 --> 1:00:56.280 twice about placing my life, or my health, or even 1:00:56.560 --> 1:00:59.800 an order in a restaurant in the hands of, for 1:00:59.800 --> 1:01:37.880 a example, the parents of this little girl. On my 1:01:37.960 --> 1:01:41.320 Friday show this evening seven pm last Friday, and you 1:01:41.360 --> 1:01:44.040 can catch it on skynews dot com dot I use streaming. 1:01:44.320 --> 1:01:49.000 I spoke about the catastrophic failure of multiculturalism in this country, 1:01:49.040 --> 1:01:55.040 primarily because integration and assimilation became dirty words under labor 1:01:55.360 --> 1:01:57.960 and I received a huge amount of correspondence from many 1:01:58.000 --> 1:02:03.000 Australians of mixed heritage and immigrant backgrounds supporting precisely what 1:02:03.040 --> 1:02:06.600 I was saying. One man wrote to me, quote, my wife, 1:02:06.600 --> 1:02:11.560 a migrant, has heartily embraced the Australian culture, loves Australian 1:02:11.640 --> 1:02:14.320 values and loves what it means to be Australian, even 1:02:14.360 --> 1:02:17.920 though she doesn't quite grasp the concept of cricket. He 1:02:18.000 --> 1:02:20.640 goes on to say, we watch with dismay as certain 1:02:20.880 --> 1:02:24.360 other newcomers to this country have trashed it. We are 1:02:24.480 --> 1:02:27.160 the story of what it means to immigrate to this 1:02:27.240 --> 1:02:30.960 country and to integrate. We are a mix of different 1:02:31.000 --> 1:02:35.000 backgrounds and languages and marriages, all making one happy, wonderful 1:02:35.160 --> 1:02:39.480 Australian story. Great letter. I couldn't agree more. But he 1:02:39.520 --> 1:02:42.200 then goes on to include this quote, which is that 1:02:43.240 --> 1:02:48.600 assimilation creates a harmonious, coherent culture, which is fantastic. That's 1:02:48.600 --> 1:02:54.000 what Australia wants. But multiculturalism is a jungle in this quote. 1:02:54.200 --> 1:02:58.080 It encourages the competition of cultures, and like it or not, 1:02:58.440 --> 1:03:02.240 it is usually the most ruthless and intolerant culture that 1:03:02.360 --> 1:03:06.080 wins the game. Let us hope that that is not 1:03:06.280 --> 1:03:09.680 our fate here in Australia. But rather than dampening down 1:03:10.160 --> 1:03:13.320 the sort of anti Israeli hatred that appears to be 1:03:13.640 --> 1:03:19.160 prevalent throughout certain ethnic communities. Due hatred, the weak and cowardly, 1:03:19.200 --> 1:03:22.680 and even I'd argue corrupt politicians have inflamed it in 1:03:22.720 --> 1:03:25.240 Britain this week, for example, there is a horrible story 1:03:26.120 --> 1:03:29.160 in the Daily Mail about the shocking extent of anti 1:03:29.160 --> 1:03:33.000 Semitism at the heart of the British Health Service, the NHS, 1:03:33.600 --> 1:03:36.400 And at the same time there is huge consternation in 1:03:36.400 --> 1:03:40.880 Britain because six people are being let in from Gaza. 1:03:41.400 --> 1:03:47.160 Six the Albanzi government is bringing in three thousand people 1:03:47.280 --> 1:03:52.080 from Gaza. Finally, could there be a more poignant and 1:03:52.200 --> 1:03:56.080 terrifying juxtaposition between that video of the nurses spewing that 1:03:56.240 --> 1:04:00.720 murderous hatred in a calm and commonplace manner and the 1:04:00.800 --> 1:04:03.440 vote only a few days before in Parliament about the 1:04:03.480 --> 1:04:06.600 need to crack down on Nazis and swastikas and u 1:04:06.720 --> 1:04:10.440 so called hate speech laws in Australia and mandatory sentences 1:04:10.480 --> 1:04:14.560 but recklessly uttering words that lead to violence. Personally, I 1:04:14.560 --> 1:04:18.080 would far rather know what people like those two nurses 1:04:18.200 --> 1:04:21.320 are thinking. People we may be rubbing shoulders with on 1:04:21.360 --> 1:04:24.880 the bus or heaven forbid, in the triage room. Yesterday 1:04:24.880 --> 1:04:27.320 it was reported that a vile of morphine was found 1:04:27.320 --> 1:04:31.520 in the male nurses locker by police. So what happens 1:04:31.560 --> 1:04:34.800 to these two nurses next? If charges are laid and 1:04:34.840 --> 1:04:37.960 a jury finds them guilty, do these two idiots then 1:04:38.000 --> 1:04:41.040 get locked up for a mandatory jail sentence? And then 1:04:41.080 --> 1:04:45.080 what what about all the others out there who share 1:04:45.240 --> 1:04:48.920 their precise views? Do the police start rifling through all 1:04:48.960 --> 1:04:52.720 their social media posts start laying charges? How many people 1:04:52.720 --> 1:04:55.840 in Sydney will be frantically scrubbing their Facebook accounts if 1:04:55.840 --> 1:04:58.560 they haven't already? Or what if the two nurses are 1:04:58.720 --> 1:05:02.280 charged but then found not guilty because they haven't met 1:05:02.360 --> 1:05:07.600 the legal definition of hate speech? What then, or worse, 1:05:07.680 --> 1:05:10.880 if no charges are laid for whatever obscurities? And what 1:05:11.040 --> 1:05:15.400 message does that send? Firstly to the Muslim but far 1:05:15.480 --> 1:05:20.880 more terrifyingly to the Jewish community of Australia. Dark days 1:05:20.920 --> 1:05:24.720 lie ahead thanks almost entirely to the cowardice of the 1:05:24.800 --> 1:05:29.480 Labor Party and the pathetic, pusillanimous leadership of Albanesi Wong 1:05:29.600 --> 1:05:33.680 and the treacherous teals. Personally, I believe the most basic 1:05:33.800 --> 1:05:39.919 remedy is repeated, meaningful public denunciations of anti Semitism from 1:05:39.960 --> 1:05:43.800 not only all sides of politics, but as a fundamental 1:05:43.840 --> 1:05:49.600 requirement of all Muslim clerics, all Muslim politicians, and all 1:05:49.720 --> 1:05:54.160 Muslim community leaders. And this must be done without the 1:05:54.240 --> 1:06:01.240 accompanying woke moral equivalent nonsense about Islamophobia. Here's a thought. 1:06:01.760 --> 1:06:05.520 Let's replace all those meaningless welcome to countries at every 1:06:05.600 --> 1:06:08.960 school opening, footy man zoom meeting, whatever, with a warm 1:06:09.040 --> 1:06:15.080 and heartfelt welcome to Australian Jews. Only half joking. But 1:06:15.200 --> 1:06:18.600 before any of that, we must have an immediately immediate 1:06:18.640 --> 1:06:22.840 halt to immigration from any and all countries where anti 1:06:22.840 --> 1:06:34.840 Semitism is rife, and that includes first and foremost Gaza. Well, 1:06:34.840 --> 1:06:37.120 we're joined now by the center of the American Experiment, 1:06:37.240 --> 1:06:41.959 President John, President John Eidenrager. Hi, you're doing well, John, 1:06:42.000 --> 1:06:45.280 You're doing very well. Listen, I want to ask you 1:06:45.880 --> 1:06:49.000 very first up the hostages that have just been released 1:06:49.080 --> 1:06:52.200 and the twelve o'clock deadline that passed here a few 1:06:52.200 --> 1:06:55.880 hours ago where Trump threatened hell breaking, lucive, all the 1:06:55.960 --> 1:06:59.600 hostages were not out. What's happening? The three hostages are out? 1:06:59.720 --> 1:07:02.080 Where the rest and when's hill breaking? Loose? 1:07:03.880 --> 1:07:07.760 Well, Rowan, I, honestly I was a little bit disappointed 1:07:07.760 --> 1:07:11.160 what Trump said. They got to release all the hostages 1:07:11.240 --> 1:07:14.800 by noon. I'm thinking to myself, high noon. You know, 1:07:14.840 --> 1:07:19.120 that's a phrase that resonates with Americans, but it didn't happen. 1:07:19.840 --> 1:07:23.280 The Hamas is proceeding with this, you know, dribs and drabs, 1:07:23.280 --> 1:07:26.600 a hostage here, a hostage there. And what Trump said 1:07:26.640 --> 1:07:30.120 today is that he's leaving it up to the Israelis. 1:07:30.840 --> 1:07:34.959 If the Israelis want to unleash hell on the gozens, 1:07:35.040 --> 1:07:38.360 we will be with them. But he's deferring to the 1:07:38.440 --> 1:07:42.400 Israelis in terms of how they want to respond. 1:07:41.800 --> 1:07:43.760 And what's the thinking about how they will respond. 1:07:45.640 --> 1:07:46.720 Well, honestly, I don't know. 1:07:46.840 --> 1:07:50.800 I meant Ya, who's been under tremendous domestic pressure to 1:07:50.920 --> 1:07:55.080 try to bring the hostages home and to some extent 1:07:55.160 --> 1:08:00.320 that has impeded Israel's war efforts there in Gaza. And 1:08:00.400 --> 1:08:02.160 one thing we don't know is how many of the 1:08:02.240 --> 1:08:06.880 hostages are even still alive. It's a terrible, terrible situation, 1:08:07.040 --> 1:08:09.480 and Yetnya, who has been trying to deal with it, 1:08:09.680 --> 1:08:12.480 manage it for a long time now, and I'm not 1:08:12.520 --> 1:08:14.160 sure how it's going to play out. The only thing 1:08:14.160 --> 1:08:17.400 I'll tell you for sure is that if the Israelis 1:08:17.479 --> 1:08:20.479 do decide to end the cease fire and go back 1:08:20.520 --> 1:08:25.240 to war and finish the battle against Hamas and the 1:08:25.280 --> 1:08:29.280 Ghazans that the Trump administration will support. 1:08:28.960 --> 1:08:32.640 Them, and President Trump has also said he wants to 1:08:32.680 --> 1:08:36.160 see an end to the war in Ukraine. He's already 1:08:36.200 --> 1:08:42.600 had discussions with Vladimir Putin. President Zelenski has just tweeted 1:08:42.640 --> 1:08:46.000 that he's begun working with President Trump's team and can 1:08:46.040 --> 1:08:49.799 already see the success is attainable, and he thanks America. 1:08:50.760 --> 1:08:53.599 Can you see that war ending in Ukraine? 1:08:55.120 --> 1:08:57.400 I think it's going to end, reader. I think both 1:08:57.520 --> 1:09:02.000 countries wanted to end. It's been a disaster. The Russians 1:09:02.000 --> 1:09:05.200 thought they would they would march right into Kiev and 1:09:05.240 --> 1:09:07.479 they failed, and then the Ukrainians thought they were going 1:09:07.520 --> 1:09:10.080 to win a brilliant victory, and then they got stymied. 1:09:10.400 --> 1:09:14.160 For a long time. Now, it's basically been trench warfare, 1:09:14.240 --> 1:09:18.280 close to a million casualties. It's been a disastrous conflict. 1:09:18.640 --> 1:09:21.680 Both sides want out. I think Trump is going to 1:09:21.680 --> 1:09:25.200 give them the excuse that they need to end the war. 1:09:25.760 --> 1:09:28.679 And the outlines of the settlement are frankly pretty obvious. 1:09:28.800 --> 1:09:30.920 Ukraine is going to have to give up a little 1:09:30.960 --> 1:09:34.439 bit of the eastern part of its country to Russia, 1:09:34.560 --> 1:09:37.880 and Zelensky has already expressed willingness to have that be 1:09:38.479 --> 1:09:41.160 part of the discussion. I think Ukraine is not going 1:09:41.200 --> 1:09:44.720 to become a part of NATO, and I don't know 1:09:44.720 --> 1:09:47.400 what the details of the of the peace agreement will 1:09:47.400 --> 1:09:50.880 be if there is a peacekeeping force in place. One 1:09:50.880 --> 1:09:53.559 thing that we know from the Trump administration is that 1:09:53.680 --> 1:09:58.080 any peacekeeping force is going to be European, not American. 1:09:58.520 --> 1:10:01.439 James and just bea at least to Secretary of State 1:10:01.520 --> 1:10:04.640 Marco Rubio. And I never thought i'd expect him to 1:10:04.640 --> 1:10:06.800 be doing such a good job on this portfolio, but 1:10:06.840 --> 1:10:09.479 here we are. He's just landed in Tel Aviv just 1:10:09.520 --> 1:10:12.760 a few hours ago. What message do you think that 1:10:12.840 --> 1:10:16.320 he is going to be delivering to the Netanyahu government 1:10:16.479 --> 1:10:21.400 about America's expectations for a ending this conflict, but be 1:10:21.680 --> 1:10:27.160 also ending Hamas's threat to continually undermine peace and stability 1:10:27.200 --> 1:10:28.120 in the entire region. 1:10:29.640 --> 1:10:32.160 Well, I think Rubio's message is going to be one 1:10:32.200 --> 1:10:36.640 of unqualified support. Unlike the Biden administration, which was constantly 1:10:37.120 --> 1:10:41.439 threatening neat Yaho and leaning on the Israelis not to 1:10:41.439 --> 1:10:45.479 proceed effectively in their war, which Gaza of course started. 1:10:45.560 --> 1:10:48.519 Israel didn't start this war. I think Rubio is there 1:10:48.640 --> 1:10:52.439 to assure neat Yaho in his administration is Security Cabinet 1:10:52.680 --> 1:10:55.479 that the United States is behind them all the way. 1:10:55.680 --> 1:10:59.120 And I think the United States, the Trump administration, like 1:10:59.200 --> 1:11:01.880 the people of his we all want to see a 1:11:02.040 --> 1:11:07.080 resolution of this endless problem they've got with Hamas. You know, 1:11:07.120 --> 1:11:09.639 this has been going on for year after year after year, 1:11:10.040 --> 1:11:12.640 and it's got to be brought to an end. And 1:11:12.680 --> 1:11:15.439 I think the proposal that Trump put out there for 1:11:15.520 --> 1:11:18.720 America to take over Gaza and turn it into a 1:11:18.840 --> 1:11:21.960 tourist resort. You know, I'm not sure how serious a 1:11:22.000 --> 1:11:25.479 proposal that is. What I think it conveys, though, is 1:11:25.520 --> 1:11:30.200 that the Trump administration wants to finally resolve this horrible, 1:11:30.360 --> 1:11:33.880 horrible problem that Gaza has been for a long time. 1:11:34.080 --> 1:11:37.480 And of course John Rubio's next stop is Saudi Arabia, 1:11:37.560 --> 1:11:40.440 so we should see a strengthening of the Abraham Accords 1:11:40.560 --> 1:11:43.400 happening there, maybe a full blown alliance. Who knows, but 1:11:43.479 --> 1:11:46.599 tell us about all the panic that is set in 1:11:47.320 --> 1:11:51.960 from all the lefty organizations, the NGOs, as Elon Musk 1:11:52.120 --> 1:11:55.479 rips into them and takes away all the amounts of 1:11:55.560 --> 1:11:59.920 money that have been fed to these dubies, dodgy, transgenderal 1:12:00.439 --> 1:12:05.160 wherever and work political garbage is terrifying. Seventy percent of 1:12:05.200 --> 1:12:09.600 the American public are behind backing and supporting Ela Muskindosh 1:12:09.760 --> 1:12:10.880 tell us your take on it. 1:12:11.840 --> 1:12:15.839 Well, it's glorious, isn't it. The Democrats are basically admitting 1:12:15.840 --> 1:12:19.479 that they are in favor of waste and corruption and 1:12:19.720 --> 1:12:23.080 fraud and the American people. I think it's been quite 1:12:23.080 --> 1:12:26.080 a revelation to see where so much of our money 1:12:26.080 --> 1:12:29.160 has been going, and to see the role that's played 1:12:29.240 --> 1:12:33.479 by the permanent bureaucracy and these agencies. These agencies are 1:12:33.520 --> 1:12:36.840 to be found nowhere in the Constitution and the kinds 1:12:36.840 --> 1:12:40.360 of things you're talking about, the trans opera in Colombia, 1:12:40.560 --> 1:12:45.040 the transmic book in Peru. If you look at the bill, 1:12:45.240 --> 1:12:49.720 the statute that funded the US Agency for International Development, 1:12:49.760 --> 1:12:51.960 there's nothing in there about trans operas. 1:12:52.360 --> 1:12:52.559 You know. 1:12:53.120 --> 1:12:56.240 They just give billions and billions and billions of dollars 1:12:56.280 --> 1:13:00.440 to these agencies, and the left wingers who run these agents, 1:13:00.479 --> 1:13:05.440 the permanent staff of these agencies, distribute these many billions 1:13:05.439 --> 1:13:08.840 of dollars to support their friends on the left and 1:13:08.880 --> 1:13:12.519 to support their ideological causes. And I think we've known 1:13:12.560 --> 1:13:15.600 this for a long time, but the details are shocking. 1:13:15.640 --> 1:13:17.360 I mean even I have been. 1:13:17.280 --> 1:13:20.720 Shocked, frankly by the extent of the corruption that is 1:13:20.760 --> 1:13:21.800 now coming to light. 1:13:22.160 --> 1:13:25.400 Well, apparently James was just saying before the property prices 1:13:26.479 --> 1:13:30.720 falling rapidly plummeting in Washington, d C. As only nngas 1:13:31.040 --> 1:13:33.160 set off and get out. So John, you might want 1:13:33.200 --> 1:13:36.439 to pick up a quick little foggy bottom use I 1:13:36.520 --> 1:13:39.240 see yourself there. Great to chat to you as always, 1:13:39.320 --> 1:13:42.400 John Heindereiker, coming up up to the bright James, don'tkey Vick. 1:13:42.520 --> 1:13:45.439 We got Ralph talking to us from Europe as well. 1:13:46.040 --> 1:13:46.759 I can take. 1:13:51.040 --> 1:13:51.360 Hello. 1:13:51.479 --> 1:13:55.720 You're watching outside us with your host Srita panihy Row 1:13:55.840 --> 1:13:59.360 Indan and of course I'm James Morrow. Well, as far 1:13:59.400 --> 1:14:01.880 as I'm going, there's only one big story out of 1:14:01.960 --> 1:14:05.080 Washington this week, and it's actually Washington when it goes 1:14:05.120 --> 1:14:10.400 to Europe. Vice President jd Vance has just delivered an 1:14:10.560 --> 1:14:14.360 absolute haymaker of a speech in Munich laying down the 1:14:14.439 --> 1:14:18.120 law to the European Union and NATO members who four 1:14:18.240 --> 1:14:22.720 years have been banging on about how they are defending 1:14:22.840 --> 1:14:28.479 democracy all while undermining it every day in their very 1:14:28.479 --> 1:14:29.320 own nations. 1:14:29.479 --> 1:14:29.759 Now. 1:14:30.280 --> 1:14:34.240 Vance was the US's representative at the Munich Security Conference, 1:14:34.479 --> 1:14:38.679 but he did not deliver the expected polite speech full 1:14:38.720 --> 1:14:42.920 of approved nostrums and talking points about Ukraine and fighting 1:14:42.960 --> 1:14:47.919 the far right, whatever that means. Instead, Vance came offering 1:14:48.040 --> 1:14:49.840 a sort of and I think there's only one word 1:14:49.880 --> 1:14:54.000 for this, an intervention. Yes, it was an intervention like 1:14:54.080 --> 1:14:57.400 you might do with a family member with an addiction problem. 1:14:58.000 --> 1:14:59.400 Only hear the. 1:14:59.280 --> 1:15:01.960 Family member wasn't an uncle or a not or a 1:15:02.040 --> 1:15:04.960 son with a drinking problem or a nasty coke habit, 1:15:05.560 --> 1:15:09.920 but instead it was Europe from which our shared Western 1:15:09.960 --> 1:15:14.880 civilization sprung, but which has lately developed its own terrible 1:15:14.920 --> 1:15:21.160 addiction to censorship, third world migration, and social control. Now, 1:15:21.800 --> 1:15:25.559 in his speech, Vance told this incredible story about a 1:15:25.600 --> 1:15:32.160 man in Scotland who was arrested for silently, yes that's right, 1:15:32.479 --> 1:15:38.000 silently in his own head praying near an abortion clinic, 1:15:38.520 --> 1:15:41.280 and how later people who lived in the area and 1:15:41.320 --> 1:15:44.400 in other areas around abortion clinics were told to report 1:15:44.439 --> 1:15:49.200 anyone they knew doing anything similar, even in their own home. 1:15:50.400 --> 1:15:51.559 This is chilling. 1:15:52.600 --> 1:15:55.840 Two years ago, the British government charged Adam Smith Connor, 1:15:56.360 --> 1:15:59.599 a fifty one year old physiotherapist and an Army veteran, 1:16:00.120 --> 1:16:05.200 with the heinous crime of standing fifty meters from an 1:16:05.200 --> 1:16:11.000 abortion clinic and silently praying for three minutes, not obstructing anyone, 1:16:11.400 --> 1:16:14.920 not interacting with anyone, just silently praying on his own. 1:16:16.240 --> 1:16:19.080 After British law enforcement spotted him and demanded to know 1:16:19.120 --> 1:16:22.680 what he was praying for, Adam replied simply, it was 1:16:22.720 --> 1:16:25.840 on behalf of the unborn son he and his former 1:16:25.880 --> 1:16:28.240 girlfriend had aboarded years before. 1:16:29.560 --> 1:16:31.040 Now, the officers were not moved. 1:16:31.479 --> 1:16:35.439 Adam was found guilty of breaking the government's new buffer 1:16:35.520 --> 1:16:38.719 zones law, which criminalized a silent prayer and other actions 1:16:38.720 --> 1:16:42.559 that could influence a person's decision within two hundred meters 1:16:42.560 --> 1:16:45.919 of an abortion facility. He was sentenced to pay thousands 1:16:45.960 --> 1:16:49.760 of pounds in legal costs to the prosecution. Now, I 1:16:49.760 --> 1:16:51.559 wish I could say that this was a fluke, a 1:16:51.560 --> 1:16:54.679 one off, crazy example of a badly written law being 1:16:54.760 --> 1:16:57.559 enacted against a single person. 1:16:57.640 --> 1:16:57.960 But no. 1:16:58.800 --> 1:16:59.920 This last October, just. 1:17:00.120 --> 1:17:02.960 Few months ago, the Scottish government began distributing letters to 1:17:03.040 --> 1:17:07.240 citizens whose houses lay within so called safe access zones, 1:17:08.120 --> 1:17:11.519 warning them that even private prayer within their own homes 1:17:12.320 --> 1:17:16.880 may amount to breaking the law. Naturally, the government urged 1:17:16.920 --> 1:17:21.320 readers to report any fellow citizens suspected guilty of thought crime. 1:17:21.960 --> 1:17:25.800 And Britain and across Europe, free speech. 1:17:25.439 --> 1:17:27.200 I fear is in retreat. 1:17:29.120 --> 1:17:31.200 Amazing stuff. And by the way, if you think of 1:17:31.320 --> 1:17:34.320 being hyperbolic, here's the letter that Vance refers to that 1:17:34.439 --> 1:17:38.120 people in Scotland got, warning them that indeed a private 1:17:38.160 --> 1:17:42.080 place such as a house could be considered a prayer 1:17:42.160 --> 1:17:46.439 free zone if it was too close to an abortion clinic. 1:17:47.040 --> 1:17:52.520 Now Vance is right, free speech is in retreat across Europe, 1:17:52.640 --> 1:17:55.800 and almost every week on this program we bring you 1:17:55.960 --> 1:18:00.719 new examples of the Orwellian thought control apparatuses being brought 1:18:00.760 --> 1:18:06.719 to bear on a population, a population that is beset 1:18:06.760 --> 1:18:10.080 by terrorism and knife crime, but where the real problem 1:18:10.080 --> 1:18:14.719 for the authorities seems to be what crime. Here's more 1:18:14.800 --> 1:18:17.240 of what Vance had to say about this. 1:18:18.520 --> 1:18:22.000 And unfortunately, when I look at Europe today, it's sometimes 1:18:22.080 --> 1:18:25.400 not so clear what happened to some of the Cold 1:18:25.439 --> 1:18:30.800 Wars winners. I look to Brussels, where EU Commission Commissars 1:18:30.920 --> 1:18:34.160 Warren citizens that they intend to shut down social media 1:18:34.280 --> 1:18:37.920 during times of civil unrest the moment they spot what 1:18:38.000 --> 1:18:42.800 they've judged to be quote hateful content. Or to this 1:18:42.920 --> 1:18:46.559 very country where police have carried out raids against citizens 1:18:46.560 --> 1:18:50.760 suspected of posting anti feminist comments online as part of 1:18:50.880 --> 1:18:54.960 quote combating misogyny on the Internet a day of action. 1:18:56.240 --> 1:18:59.680 But that's not the only European problem that Vance called out. 1:18:59.800 --> 1:19:04.240 Vice President was also brutal about the policies of some countries, 1:19:04.320 --> 1:19:10.440 particularly Germany, that have allowed themselves to de industrialize. 1:19:11.040 --> 1:19:15.760 Germany is the one country, maybe in NATO, that did 1:19:15.760 --> 1:19:19.719 not follow the stupid Washington consensus and allow their country 1:19:19.760 --> 1:19:22.799 to be de industrialized during the seventies, eighties, and nineties. 1:19:23.200 --> 1:19:25.880 And yet at the very moment that Putin is more 1:19:25.920 --> 1:19:30.160 and more powerful, where the Russian army is invading European 1:19:30.240 --> 1:19:33.439 countries in mass, this is the point at which Germany 1:19:33.439 --> 1:19:36.519 starts to de industrialize. Look at the number of people 1:19:36.560 --> 1:19:39.679 working and manufacturing in Germany now versus ten years ago. 1:19:39.960 --> 1:19:43.320 Look at the critical raw materials produced in Germany now 1:19:43.520 --> 1:19:47.080 versus ten years ago, the energy dependents now versus ten 1:19:47.160 --> 1:19:50.920 or twenty years ago. We have got to stop de industrializing. 1:19:51.360 --> 1:19:54.840 We want Europe to be successful, but Europe has got 1:19:54.880 --> 1:19:57.320 to take a bigger role in its own security. 1:19:57.360 --> 1:19:59.280 It can't do that without industry. 1:20:00.080 --> 1:20:02.439 Now, I'd go further and say it is amazing that 1:20:02.520 --> 1:20:06.880 Germany has inflicted on itself the same rustic rustication that 1:20:06.960 --> 1:20:10.280 some in the US government wanted to force on them. 1:20:10.600 --> 1:20:15.080 And thankfully they didn't succeed after World War II. But 1:20:15.200 --> 1:20:18.799 it was on this subject of mass migration that Vance 1:20:19.120 --> 1:20:20.320 really opened up. 1:20:21.520 --> 1:20:24.360 The number of immigrants who entered the EU from non 1:20:24.439 --> 1:20:28.479 EU countries doubled between twenty twenty one and twenty twenty 1:20:28.479 --> 1:20:31.320 two alone, and of course it's gotten much higher since. 1:20:31.960 --> 1:20:33.360 And we know the situation. 1:20:33.560 --> 1:20:35.880 It didn't materialize in a vacuum. 1:20:36.600 --> 1:20:38.200 It's the result of a. 1:20:38.200 --> 1:20:42.640 Series of conscious decisions made by politicians all over the 1:20:42.640 --> 1:20:46.760 continent and others across the world over the span of 1:20:46.800 --> 1:20:47.320 a decade. 1:20:49.160 --> 1:20:52.120 Vance noted that just the day before his speech, there 1:20:52.200 --> 1:20:55.840 was another Islamist car ramming attack in Munich, the very 1:20:55.920 --> 1:20:57.679 city where he was speaking. 1:20:58.800 --> 1:21:02.000 We saw the horrors wrought by these decisions yesterday in 1:21:02.080 --> 1:21:05.920 this very city, and of course I can't bring it 1:21:06.000 --> 1:21:09.960 up again without thinking about the terrible victims who had 1:21:10.560 --> 1:21:14.200 a beautiful winter day in Munich ruined. Our thoughts and 1:21:14.280 --> 1:21:17.439 prayers are with them and will remain with them. But 1:21:17.560 --> 1:21:20.479 why did this happen in the first place. It's a 1:21:20.600 --> 1:21:23.200 terrible story, but it's one we've heard way too many 1:21:23.240 --> 1:21:26.000 times in Europe and unfortunately too many times in the 1:21:26.120 --> 1:21:27.519 United States as well. 1:21:28.080 --> 1:21:31.759 An asylum seeker, often a young man in his mid twenties, 1:21:32.200 --> 1:21:35.639 already known to police, rams a car into a crowd 1:21:35.760 --> 1:21:37.160 and shatters a community. 1:21:38.120 --> 1:21:40.360 How many times must. 1:21:40.080 --> 1:21:44.200 We suffer these appalling setbacks before we change course and 1:21:44.320 --> 1:21:47.759 take our shared civilization in a new direction. 1:21:49.000 --> 1:21:52.920 Yeah, Vance said European leaders were ignoring what people were 1:21:53.080 --> 1:21:56.479 urgently crying out for to be heard and to have 1:21:56.760 --> 1:22:01.600 their votes read, their voices respected, rather than being blamed 1:22:01.840 --> 1:22:06.360 for having the wrong ideas or for supposedly being influenced 1:22:06.400 --> 1:22:11.000 by outside voices from beyond their own shores. Have a 1:22:11.040 --> 1:22:13.559 listen to this, and note at the end there's the 1:22:13.640 --> 1:22:16.160 name of an old friend of this program. 1:22:16.240 --> 1:22:16.479 Here. 1:22:16.640 --> 1:22:17.200 Have a listen. 1:22:18.720 --> 1:22:23.639 I believe the dismissing people, dismissing their concerns, or worse yet, 1:22:23.800 --> 1:22:28.559 shutting down media, shutting down elections or shutting people out 1:22:28.600 --> 1:22:33.760 of the political process protects nothing. In fact, it is 1:22:33.800 --> 1:22:38.960 the most surefire way to destroy democracy. And speaking up 1:22:39.160 --> 1:22:43.920 and expressing opinions isn't election interference, even when people express 1:22:44.000 --> 1:22:47.759 views outside your own country, and even when those people 1:22:47.840 --> 1:22:49.120 are very influential. 1:22:50.080 --> 1:22:52.760 And trust me, I say this with all humor. If 1:22:52.800 --> 1:22:57.840 American democracy can survive ten years of Funeburg scolding, you 1:22:57.880 --> 1:23:00.240 guys can survive a few months of Elon musk. 1:23:01.600 --> 1:23:01.840 Ah. 1:23:01.920 --> 1:23:03.320 Yes remember Redda. 1:23:03.960 --> 1:23:06.719 Yes, it was fine for her to bully leaders around 1:23:06.720 --> 1:23:09.840 the world and terrified children, including here in Australia, and 1:23:09.920 --> 1:23:12.120 tell them to go on strike for the climate. 1:23:12.520 --> 1:23:16.840 But Elon musk Oh no mean tweets incoming. 1:23:17.600 --> 1:23:20.479 Look, the whole speech was an absolute toward a force, 1:23:20.560 --> 1:23:24.760 a banger. But what Vance was saying to the Europeans 1:23:25.040 --> 1:23:32.040 is this, You are making yourselves unrecognizable culturally, politically, socially, 1:23:32.280 --> 1:23:35.480 and running against all the values of liberty and enlightenment 1:23:35.840 --> 1:23:40.040 that once made you European and which gave the world 1:23:40.360 --> 1:23:45.240 the gift of your civilization. And now you expect to 1:23:45.240 --> 1:23:48.960 be defended by America even as you run yourself down. 1:23:50.360 --> 1:23:53.360 The whole speech could be summed up by this one 1:23:53.439 --> 1:23:57.200 line from Vance, which I think deserves to go down 1:23:57.240 --> 1:24:00.679 in history as his ich bin einber moment. 1:24:02.320 --> 1:24:05.280 If you're running in fear of your own voters, there 1:24:05.320 --> 1:24:09.120 is nothing America can do for you, nor, for that matter, 1:24:09.200 --> 1:24:11.400 is there anything that you can do for the American 1:24:11.439 --> 1:24:14.639 people who elected me and elected President Trump. 1:24:15.800 --> 1:24:21.120 How perfectly put, Europe is running in fear of its 1:24:21.120 --> 1:24:24.160 own voters. And it was again, I say this again 1:24:24.240 --> 1:24:28.479 an intervention. Yet as the saying goes, there are none 1:24:28.520 --> 1:24:32.160 so blind as those who will not see. The Europeans 1:24:32.160 --> 1:24:35.360 in the audience were horrified to cop this lecture from 1:24:35.400 --> 1:24:41.560 this upstart colonial here's left wing German defense minister Boris Pistorius. 1:24:43.360 --> 1:24:46.880 This democracy that was just called into question by the 1:24:46.960 --> 1:24:49.800 Hughes vice president, and not just the German democracy, but 1:24:50.000 --> 1:24:54.920 Europe as a whole. He spoke of the annulment of democracy, 1:24:54.960 --> 1:24:59.360 and if I understood him correctly, he compares the condition 1:24:59.479 --> 1:25:05.000 of Europe with the condition that prevails in some authoritarian regimes. 1:25:05.200 --> 1:25:07.640 Ladies and gentlemen, this is not acceptable. 1:25:09.280 --> 1:25:11.040 And everyone clapped. 1:25:11.320 --> 1:25:13.840 Well, they may be cheering him now, but it is 1:25:13.960 --> 1:25:16.600 Vance who was in the right here, and in a 1:25:16.640 --> 1:25:20.240 few days time, Germany will go to the polls and 1:25:20.320 --> 1:25:23.280 the right wing AfD is looking to be in the 1:25:23.320 --> 1:25:27.280 box seat, while authorities try to do everything in their 1:25:27.360 --> 1:25:31.960 power to smother that party's vote. As ordinary Germans become 1:25:32.120 --> 1:25:36.759 increasingly fed up with crime, migration, terrorism, and the running 1:25:36.800 --> 1:25:40.600 down of their once great nation by the left. The 1:25:40.640 --> 1:25:45.120 big question now is, as Vance suggests, will the people's 1:25:45.200 --> 1:25:49.400 voice in Germany be allowed to be heard or will 1:25:49.520 --> 1:25:55.559 it be silenced? And if it is silenced, well remind 1:25:55.640 --> 1:25:59.559 us again what gives them to the right to lecture 1:25:59.760 --> 1:26:03.839 the rest of us about democracy? What is this Europe 1:26:03.840 --> 1:26:06.200 exactly that we are defending? 1:26:11.200 --> 1:26:13.519 Great stuff, Thanks James. Well, someone who will never be 1:26:13.600 --> 1:26:17.360 silenced is Ralph Sholhammer over there in Europe. Ralph, Great, 1:26:17.520 --> 1:26:20.240 just speak to you. You're there on the wall somewhere 1:26:20.479 --> 1:26:23.679 coming upside. Was here in the room a moment ago. 1:26:23.880 --> 1:26:25.400 Now there you are, Ralph. We found you. 1:26:25.800 --> 1:26:26.280 We found you. 1:26:26.680 --> 1:26:29.400 I thought, maybe that's a Pistorius had cut the links so. 1:26:29.400 --> 1:26:32.439 That we couldn't talk to you, no doubt. 1:26:32.479 --> 1:26:35.920 Great back, So Ralph, tell us who's going to win 1:26:35.960 --> 1:26:39.080 the German election? And what does this mean for the 1:26:39.200 --> 1:26:39.880 Ukraine war? 1:26:40.960 --> 1:26:42.800 Well, I think one of the broader things that you 1:26:42.880 --> 1:26:46.280 did not mention in your wonderful segment was that, mister 1:26:46.400 --> 1:26:48.920 Vanze also is that the biggest threat for Europe is not. 1:26:48.960 --> 1:26:50.200 China or Russia. 1:26:50.479 --> 1:26:53.240 It is breaking with its own values and forgetting its 1:26:53.240 --> 1:26:55.280 own values. And this is what we see at the 1:26:55.280 --> 1:26:58.000 moment of us speaking here. Austria is currently really we 1:26:58.040 --> 1:27:00.960 had our own tervist attack just five hours ago. Yet 1:27:01.000 --> 1:27:04.240 again the migrant, this time from Syria, has killed one 1:27:04.320 --> 1:27:08.439 boy age fourteen and injured four other people. So this 1:27:08.640 --> 1:27:12.120 is now happening almost on a daily basis. The Spectator 1:27:12.160 --> 1:27:15.200 recently published a paper saying that one hundred and twenty 1:27:15.320 --> 1:27:19.120 knife attacks take place every single day in France. So 1:27:19.240 --> 1:27:22.920 the situation we find ourselves in is one where Europeans 1:27:22.920 --> 1:27:26.960 are increasingly hostages in their own country, while the elites 1:27:27.280 --> 1:27:31.800 and activitst judiciary and the NGOs are indulging in a 1:27:31.920 --> 1:27:35.200 form of weird Stockholm syndrome where they constantly side with 1:27:35.280 --> 1:27:38.040 the perpetrators but never with the victims. And this is 1:27:38.080 --> 1:27:40.200 the reason why you see the right to achieve in Germany, 1:27:40.240 --> 1:27:42.080 in France, you see it in the UK with the 1:27:42.200 --> 1:27:44.880 Reform Party, and he saw it with Jdevans and Donald 1:27:44.920 --> 1:27:47.280 Trump in the United States that people do no longer 1:27:47.360 --> 1:27:51.280 understand whether it is a political elite that made it 1:27:51.400 --> 1:27:55.320 the credo of their entire belief that whenever possible, you 1:27:55.360 --> 1:27:57.639 have to side with those who are against your country, 1:27:57.880 --> 1:28:01.960 your civilization, your tradition, know you inheritage and not the 1:28:02.000 --> 1:28:02.719 other side. 1:28:03.200 --> 1:28:06.760 Now we've seen also in Munich where JD. Evans gave 1:28:06.800 --> 1:28:11.639 that great speech, just within hours another alleged terrorist attack 1:28:11.800 --> 1:28:14.880 a car, I mean, where a mother and a two 1:28:14.920 --> 1:28:19.160 year old child were killed, dozens more injured. How much 1:28:19.200 --> 1:28:22.760 of an impact is that event having as far as 1:28:22.760 --> 1:28:25.120 discussions leading up to the election. 1:28:26.160 --> 1:28:28.320 Well, it will have an impact on the election. But 1:28:28.400 --> 1:28:31.120 due to the electoral system in Germany, the problem is 1:28:31.439 --> 1:28:33.799 the AfD is not going to get over fifty one percent, 1:28:33.880 --> 1:28:36.879 so they will come in second. And the quote unquote 1:28:36.920 --> 1:28:39.880 conservatives who are not real conservatives, that are pretty much 1:28:39.960 --> 1:28:43.800 like Richie Suna's Conservatives were in the United Kingdom. But 1:28:43.840 --> 1:28:46.880 of course most people don't indulge in politics all the 1:28:46.920 --> 1:28:49.200 time as we do. So people say, if I make 1:28:49.240 --> 1:28:52.600 my cross at the Conservative Party, they will govern conservative, 1:28:52.800 --> 1:28:55.200 won't they. But that's also what people thought about angel 1:28:55.200 --> 1:28:57.720 A Mercle and as we know now she basically was 1:28:57.760 --> 1:29:01.400 the first Green Chancellor of Germany and energy policy, in 1:29:01.479 --> 1:29:05.040 foreign policy, and in migration policy, and what we do 1:29:05.120 --> 1:29:06.679 not see. Actually, I just want to make this point 1:29:06.760 --> 1:29:09.439 very quick, because we have the sharp contrast. If you 1:29:09.479 --> 1:29:11.519 look to Poland, if you look to Hungary, if you 1:29:11.520 --> 1:29:14.519 look to the Czech Republic, there are no stabbings, there 1:29:14.560 --> 1:29:17.799 are no gang rapes, but there are no cost driving 1:29:17.800 --> 1:29:20.320 into pedestrians. Man, I wonder why that is. 1:29:20.680 --> 1:29:23.040 Well, Ralph, here's the thing that I don't understand, and 1:29:23.160 --> 1:29:25.679 break it down for you. For the last fifteen twenty years, 1:29:25.960 --> 1:29:29.120 it has been the elite desire to have open borders 1:29:29.120 --> 1:29:33.000 in Europe and import huge numbers of people from the 1:29:33.040 --> 1:29:37.040 Islamic world or the Third world. Why is this particular 1:29:37.120 --> 1:29:40.880 issue so dear to the elites. The one way they 1:29:40.880 --> 1:29:44.519 could easily stop the AfD and stop far right parties 1:29:44.520 --> 1:29:46.839 if they said, yes, we will have controls on migration. 1:29:46.920 --> 1:29:49.640 And yet they refuse to what is so important to 1:29:49.680 --> 1:29:51.400 the elites about this migration? 1:29:52.520 --> 1:29:53.479 Well, you know the answer. 1:29:53.520 --> 1:29:55.599 I think you're just too shy to say it because 1:29:55.600 --> 1:29:58.280 for them, it is atonement for the supposed sins of 1:29:58.360 --> 1:29:59.960 the past that the West has committed. 1:30:00.080 --> 1:30:01.000 This is the very reason. 1:30:01.040 --> 1:30:03.200 But every time when you turn against it, they say 1:30:03.240 --> 1:30:06.000 you must be a Nazi because for them, opening up 1:30:06.040 --> 1:30:08.760 the borders is what they believe is the way to 1:30:08.880 --> 1:30:11.600 make good for the horrific things the West, and particularly 1:30:11.600 --> 1:30:13.720 in this case Germany, which is why it's even more 1:30:13.720 --> 1:30:16.320 pronounced in Germany than in other places, that this is 1:30:16.360 --> 1:30:18.320 the way how you can make up for things of 1:30:18.400 --> 1:30:20.600 the past. That everybody who is against that form of 1:30:20.640 --> 1:30:23.519 atonement then must be by definition a Nazi. 1:30:23.640 --> 1:30:24.719 It's completely absurd. 1:30:24.760 --> 1:30:28.000 It's a form of I would say delusion as a 1:30:28.479 --> 1:30:31.599 psychological disease if you want. But this is how they think. 1:30:31.640 --> 1:30:34.880 This is why you constantly immediately have the reference to 1:30:34.960 --> 1:30:37.320 the Nazi time with everything we saw it now with JD. 1:30:37.439 --> 1:30:40.040 Vans's speech Bill Crystal, who I think is a grifter, 1:30:40.200 --> 1:30:45.479 but that's a separate area that the speech would have 1:30:45.520 --> 1:30:48.760 sounded better in the original German, right, So it's immediately 1:30:48.840 --> 1:30:51.639 you know, immediately you have to swiveling too. Oh my god, 1:30:51.720 --> 1:30:54.479 these must be Nazis because they don't want open borders. 1:30:55.160 --> 1:30:57.400 I mean to say that about a man like JD. 1:30:57.600 --> 1:31:00.880 Vance who's married to a Indian and American woman who's 1:31:00.880 --> 1:31:03.400 got biracial children. To try to paint him with some 1:31:03.439 --> 1:31:06.880 sort of a Nazi white supremacist is just so disgusting. 1:31:07.000 --> 1:31:12.400 But we are seeing this center right wave throughout Europe, 1:31:12.400 --> 1:31:13.920 from Italy to Finland. 1:31:14.400 --> 1:31:16.280 The right wing parties are. 1:31:16.240 --> 1:31:18.880 Doing much better they have been, But is there an 1:31:18.960 --> 1:31:23.840 appetite there to actually tackle the left wing bureaucracy that 1:31:23.960 --> 1:31:27.560 is pushing all these agendas we're seeing with the Trump administration, 1:31:27.760 --> 1:31:32.120 they are just going after the bureaucracy and making sure 1:31:32.200 --> 1:31:35.240 that they're not going to frustrate their efforts to implement 1:31:35.320 --> 1:31:38.840 their policies. Is that happening in Europe as well, where 1:31:38.880 --> 1:31:41.160 those right center right parties are availing. 1:31:42.160 --> 1:31:45.360 Well, don't forgets the long march through institutions of the 1:31:45.439 --> 1:31:48.599 left started in the late sixties, early seventies, and they 1:31:48.640 --> 1:31:51.840 didn't gain full control up until the nineties. So my fear, 1:31:51.880 --> 1:31:54.880 of course is we don't have that much time. So 1:31:55.439 --> 1:31:59.720 the change of the debureaucracy and even more importantly the judiciary. 1:31:59.760 --> 1:32:02.080 I mean, we have this problem. We have it in Australia, 1:32:02.120 --> 1:32:04.519 we have it in continental Europe, the UK, but of 1:32:04.560 --> 1:32:07.320 course also in the United States there is an activist 1:32:07.360 --> 1:32:11.080 class within the judiciary who believes that they have to 1:32:11.160 --> 1:32:13.280 follow not the letter of the law, but some kind 1:32:13.280 --> 1:32:16.280 of ideological prescription. I give you a very concrete example, 1:32:16.320 --> 1:32:18.800 and I think many people in Australia don't know. The 1:32:18.880 --> 1:32:22.960 European Court of Justice just recently decided that every single 1:32:23.000 --> 1:32:28.040 woman in Afghanistan has automatically the rights to claim asylum 1:32:28.040 --> 1:32:31.719 in Europe, in every country. So it's nineteen million people 1:32:31.920 --> 1:32:34.639 that have a blanket right to asylum. Austria has nine 1:32:34.720 --> 1:32:37.720 million inhabitants. Now nineteen million women will not make it 1:32:37.720 --> 1:32:40.920 from Afghanistan to Austria. But that's a technical problem, a 1:32:40.960 --> 1:32:44.640 logistical one, but from a legal perspective, Austria would have 1:32:44.760 --> 1:32:47.320 to give those people asylum. But of course then Austria 1:32:47.400 --> 1:32:50.200 as a nation would cease to exist. Nine million Austrians, 1:32:50.400 --> 1:32:53.679 nineteen million in Afghans. You would be a minority own country. 1:32:53.720 --> 1:32:56.280 But it's a legal ruling. And this is what I 1:32:56.320 --> 1:32:59.000 mean when I say that this march through institutions, or 1:32:59.040 --> 1:33:02.439 the return of sanate into the institutions, that's kind of 1:33:02.439 --> 1:33:04.759 the the big challenge for the next couple of years. 1:33:04.880 --> 1:33:07.600 We can be very grateful. I believe Donald Trump is 1:33:07.600 --> 1:33:10.160 a flawed man, and we all are flawed humans. But 1:33:10.200 --> 1:33:12.439 I think you understood one thing though, that if you 1:33:12.520 --> 1:33:15.280 want to change something, it starts with a bureaucracy. There's 1:33:15.320 --> 1:33:18.760 the famous saying by the German politician Bismarck, who want 1:33:18.840 --> 1:33:22.400 said the best laws are useless with a bad bureaucracy. 1:33:22.840 --> 1:33:26.559 But the same goes with that, the worst bureaucracy doesn't 1:33:26.600 --> 1:33:29.879 help if you have or cannot execute a good laws. 1:33:29.920 --> 1:33:32.080 And this is I think what he has realized. Great 1:33:32.120 --> 1:33:35.840 to hear Bismarck quest before and outside is that's the 1:33:35.920 --> 1:33:38.679 first Ralph, Ralph Sholhammer, Great to chat to you as 1:33:38.760 --> 1:33:41.360 always live from Vienna there and thanks Ralph for staying 1:33:41.400 --> 1:33:43.800 up so late to chapter's what's happening in Europe? Will 1:33:43.840 --> 1:33:45.920 teating on top of that coming up after the break. 1:33:46.040 --> 1:33:52.519 Candra clown Show in a tick, roll up, roll up, 1:33:52.560 --> 1:33:54.639 step right this way. It's the wackiest show in town. 1:33:54.720 --> 1:33:57.920 It's the Canbra clown Show, which this week made the 1:33:57.960 --> 1:34:00.800 mistake of heading out of the Burly Riffin Big Top 1:34:01.120 --> 1:34:05.160 and visiting Woollongong, home of the floating windmills. Looks like 1:34:05.240 --> 1:34:33.519 not everyone enjoyed the show. Still, if Albo wasn't feeling 1:34:33.560 --> 1:34:35.679 the love at the water's edge. He made a better 1:34:35.760 --> 1:34:39.160 go of it with some Valentine's Day poetry. 1:34:40.520 --> 1:34:46.200 Rosas are red, it's volat of blue, It's valentine to 1:34:46.240 --> 1:34:49.360 Day and we love blue collar working. 1:34:51.560 --> 1:34:55.760 Who said I love you first? Same time? Same time? 1:34:55.840 --> 1:34:57.439 It was definitely the same time. 1:34:59.000 --> 1:35:02.000 The half of and I Happy Valentine's Day. 1:35:01.920 --> 1:35:03.800 Australia, Happy Valentine's State. 1:35:04.000 --> 1:35:07.799 One year since we got engaged, Oh. 1:35:07.840 --> 1:35:10.760 Dear, But when it comes to romancing, the view as 1:35:10.800 --> 1:35:18.240 Albo was just warming up. Well, congratulations, Prime minister. But 1:35:18.680 --> 1:35:22.360 speaking of prime ministerial love affairs, in these days of 1:35:22.400 --> 1:35:27.240 Elon Musk and his Doge Department uncovering governmental bureaucratic largesse 1:35:27.479 --> 1:35:32.920 on an unimaginable scale to politically aligned non government organizations, 1:35:33.080 --> 1:35:36.880 one can't help but fondly remember those other prime ministerial 1:35:37.280 --> 1:35:40.799 love affairs, such as the love affair between Julia Gillard 1:35:41.120 --> 1:35:45.679 and the Clintons, or more importantly, the Clinton Foundation. You see, 1:35:45.760 --> 1:35:49.240 between twenty ten and twenty thirteen, Prime Minister Julia Gillard 1:35:49.520 --> 1:35:53.720 donated three hundred million dollars of your and my and 1:35:53.920 --> 1:35:57.360 every other Australian taxpayers dollars three hundred million of them, 1:35:57.560 --> 1:36:02.679 no small change to the Clinton afil Global Partnership for Education. 1:36:03.080 --> 1:36:08.360 AH smiles all around, feel the love. But this was 1:36:08.520 --> 1:36:12.920 no short fling. In February twenty fourteen, as Gillard raised 1:36:12.920 --> 1:36:16.720 a few eyebrows when, having left politics, she was appointed 1:36:16.880 --> 1:36:21.200 chair of the Clinton Foundation affiliated Global Partnership for Education, 1:36:21.680 --> 1:36:28.000 a leading organization dedicated to expanding access and quality education worldwide. 1:36:28.200 --> 1:36:32.280 What a noble cause. Still, the Clinton's love affair with 1:36:32.360 --> 1:36:36.519 Australian politicians goes way way back further than that. Indeed, 1:36:36.840 --> 1:36:41.000 who's this dashing young man sitting beside behind Bill Clinton. 1:36:41.200 --> 1:36:45.479 It's John Howard's Foreign Minister, Alexander Downer, and Bill is 1:36:45.560 --> 1:36:49.479 standing at a podium that says Australian Government oss AID, 1:36:49.800 --> 1:36:54.559 a USAID A USAID. That rings a bell, of course, 1:36:54.640 --> 1:37:01.839 it's the Australian counterpart of the recently much maligned us AID. Hmm. Anyway, 1:37:02.080 --> 1:37:05.160 in February two thousand and six, Foreign Minister Downer and 1:37:05.280 --> 1:37:10.520 Bill Clinton signed a twenty five million dollar memorandum of understanding, 1:37:10.800 --> 1:37:14.479 which triggered the first round of Australian donations to the 1:37:14.560 --> 1:37:18.280 Clinton Foundation. By December two thousand and eight, the Clinton 1:37:18.360 --> 1:37:26.040 Foundation reported that Australia was the largest Western government donor. Hmmm, 1:37:26.960 --> 1:37:29.840 that tugs at the heart strings, doesn't it our money? 1:37:30.000 --> 1:37:33.920 By the way, But wait, there's more. In two thousand 1:37:33.920 --> 1:37:38.599 and nine ten Kevin rad handed over another ten million 1:37:38.680 --> 1:37:44.080 dollars to the Clinton Foundation for Climate research, which was 1:37:44.200 --> 1:37:47.639 just a tinsy part of the three hundred million dollars. Yes, 1:37:47.880 --> 1:37:51.960 mister Rudd handed out your money for a global carbon 1:37:52.200 --> 1:37:54.440 capture and Storage institute. 1:37:54.840 --> 1:37:57.040 Hmmm, but but what's this? 1:37:57.760 --> 1:38:01.560 Even more prime ministerial roma answering with the Clintons. In 1:38:01.640 --> 1:38:05.760 twenty fourteen, Tony Abbotts short lived government topped up the 1:38:05.920 --> 1:38:09.719 Clinton coffers with another one hundred and forty million dollars 1:38:09.960 --> 1:38:13.960 of Ossie taxpayers money, including twenty seven million to aid 1:38:14.080 --> 1:38:18.920 initiatives to run through something called the Clinton Health Access Initiative. 1:38:19.200 --> 1:38:23.800 And yes, so strong was the affection that Australian governments 1:38:23.880 --> 1:38:27.240 felt for the Clintons that the love affair continued, with 1:38:27.479 --> 1:38:31.880 Julie Bishop tossing in a few more bob By the 1:38:31.960 --> 1:38:35.120 time the Australian government had finished its love affair with 1:38:35.240 --> 1:38:39.840 the Clintons, our political leaders had given their foundations as 1:38:39.880 --> 1:38:45.519 staggering four hundred and sixty million dollars. That's nearly half 1:38:45.600 --> 1:38:50.760 a billion of your hard earned money. My thanks to 1:38:50.920 --> 1:38:54.719 r M for the research on that astonishing trans Pacific 1:38:54.960 --> 1:39:00.280 Clinton Australia love affair. Meanwhile, we learned yesterday from Guys 1:39:00.400 --> 1:39:02.840 very on Chris Allman, writing in the Australian newspaper that 1:39:02.960 --> 1:39:07.080 quotes search the Globe, and it turns out that Australia 1:39:07.200 --> 1:39:12.800 has the highest paid senior bureaucrats in the world, or 1:39:12.960 --> 1:39:18.400 as former Treasury Assistant Secretary David Peerl has noted incredibly, 1:39:18.600 --> 1:39:23.080 over one hundred public servants earn more than the cabinet 1:39:23.200 --> 1:39:26.840 ministers they serve. This is Canberra and this is an 1:39:27.080 --> 1:39:32.559 absolute disgrace. Allmond says. We need to have the wages 1:39:32.640 --> 1:39:36.439 of departmental heads and freeze them until they start coming 1:39:36.560 --> 1:39:42.280 up with ideas that lift the suffocating regulatory burden of government. 1:39:42.400 --> 1:39:45.920 And that is, of course the point. Investment and small 1:39:46.000 --> 1:39:49.840 and big businesses are being strangled by red, green, and 1:39:50.040 --> 1:39:55.160 black bureaucratic tape designed by fat cat bureaucrats and politicians 1:39:55.280 --> 1:39:57.320 who are completely out of touch with. 1:39:57.400 --> 1:39:58.400 The real world. 1:39:59.280 --> 1:40:03.479 Much like the strange love affair between Australian prime ministers 1:40:03.560 --> 1:40:08.240 and the Clinton's and the love affair between Camber and 1:40:08.439 --> 1:40:12.840 big bureaucracy. It appears the Fab four got it wrong. 1:40:13.720 --> 1:40:25.160 Money can buy you love, money. 1:40:27.000 --> 1:40:31.719 Beautiful Julia Gilard Frez speaking of Julia hyperbol but Rache, 1:40:31.840 --> 1:40:34.680 you have some more hyperbol love for us to tell. 1:40:35.040 --> 1:40:39.559 I think this is just absolutely blowing up on social media. 1:40:39.720 --> 1:40:43.680 It appears that Elon Musker's father his thirteenth child with 1:40:44.080 --> 1:40:47.759 a lady called Ashley Saint Clair. She is a conservative blogger, 1:40:48.240 --> 1:40:51.920 but things have gone sour between the pair. She's the 1:40:52.000 --> 1:40:56.680 one who made this public and he hasn't confirmed it, 1:40:56.880 --> 1:40:59.680 nor have his people confirmed it, so we're assuming this 1:40:59.800 --> 1:41:03.880 is true. It's been reported widely now, but it is 1:41:04.000 --> 1:41:08.400 going to cause all sorts of interest and in the. 1:41:08.479 --> 1:41:12.879 Days, class of this on the Rita Pannehe Show Monday 1:41:13.120 --> 1:41:17.800 Night eleven o'clock, Tuesday Night, Wednesday Night, Thursday night at 1:41:17.800 --> 1:41:21.519 eleven o'clock and of course the reader Panny Friday Evenings.
