WEBVTT - Paul Murray Live | 26 May 0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:06.600 From the Skying Center. This is Paul Murray Live. Thank 0:00:06.640 --> 0:00:08.560 you so much for watching. What a good swimming was 0:00:08.600 --> 0:00:10.719 in Cans last night. The weather a little bit different 0:00:10.720 --> 0:00:12.080 when we got back to the man Cave. Thank you 0:00:12.080 --> 0:00:14.560 to everyone who watched and who supported and who gave 0:00:14.600 --> 0:00:17.080 us a great time in the far North. Let's get 0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:19.919 to an awful lot tonight, including the cleanup operation in 0:00:19.960 --> 0:00:21.920 and around those news so wild floods will go back 0:00:21.920 --> 0:00:24.840 to Tarre. We're also going to have a chat about, well, 0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:28.280 something they always say that happens to be the opposite 0:00:28.320 --> 0:00:31.159 of what always happened, something different about power bills, and 0:00:31.200 --> 0:00:33.800 I'm going to take a couple of seconds to explain 0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:36.680 not quite the fatal flaw in the Dead Star, but 0:00:36.720 --> 0:00:40.479 perhaps a little design fault that is in part of 0:00:40.479 --> 0:00:42.680 the difference between the way the Liberal Party and the 0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:45.600 Labor Party works. So believe that'll be a good chat 0:00:45.720 --> 0:00:48.440 coming up a little bit later. But first before we 0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:50.599 get to all the politics, and again we will go 0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:52.920 live to those regions at a moment or two time, Let's 0:00:52.960 --> 0:00:56.080 get to a nice moment that took place today in 0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:59.240 and around that cleanup effort. Now it is heartbreaking for 0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:01.160 the extreme Madjo already. In fact, all the people that 0:01:01.200 --> 0:01:04.040 are involved in this clean up effort. Depending on where 0:01:04.080 --> 0:01:07.600 you are, depending on the city, depending on how complicated 0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:09.760 things are, it's been a really tough couple of days. 0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:12.399 In fact, there's even some more that might be coming 0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:14.400 when it comes to extra wind and rain in and 0:01:14.440 --> 0:01:19.880 around now the south and center of the country. 0:01:20.360 --> 0:01:23.080 The winds were pretty ferocious today and that was due 0:01:23.120 --> 0:01:26.320 to a strong low pressure system and cold front which 0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:30.640 we can see swirling away. It's this clockwise complex mass 0:01:30.720 --> 0:01:33.440 making its way from the Great Australian Biton pushing into 0:01:33.520 --> 0:01:38.440 Victoria this afternoon. This generated widespread average winds sixty to 0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:39.720 seventy kilometers per hour. 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:41.240 They were howling all. 0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:45.520 Day long across South's Australia and also elevated terrain in Victoria. 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:49.040 Now, of course, part of the cleanup operation has been 0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:52.440 farmers of all different kinds trying to take stock and 0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:54.480 see how much of the livestock has perished in the 0:01:54.520 --> 0:01:57.000 past couple of days. But the reason I start with 0:01:57.040 --> 0:01:59.040 all of this now is because there was one little, 0:01:59.160 --> 0:02:01.720 very small race of hope. It was captured in fact 0:02:01.840 --> 0:02:04.320 during interview that was being done. I believe with the Guardian. 0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:07.240 This is a nice moment when people thought all was lost, 0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:08.400 but it wasn't. 0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:11.240 We put them under the bridge to keep them in 0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:13.280 the high point. They were in about that much water, 0:02:13.440 --> 0:02:19.520 standing in water and it was still rising. Okay, we've 0:02:19.560 --> 0:02:25.000 found a little boycott. I thought we've lost one in 0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:27.600 the water. We thought he might have drowned, but apparently 0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:32.160 he's there. She had twins in the water in the mud. 0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:33.720 No, it's a tough time for everyone. But if there 0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:35.519 is just a little positive story here and there to 0:02:35.560 --> 0:02:37.679 help get people through, I'm more than happy to pass 0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:42.320 it on. Before the election, the federal government was very 0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:45.200 clear in telling us that these are not the droids 0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:47.200 you're looking for. And despite the fact that they had 0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:49.560 failed to deliver on a central promise of power prices 0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:52.120 going down by two hundred and seventy five dollars in 0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:55.040 the previous three years, that an actual fact. Despite the 0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:57.359 fact that you were paying more than you were three 0:02:57.440 --> 0:03:00.560 years ago for power, it was still technically going down. 0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:05.160 In the last year to December, and the official inflation 0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:09.480 data electricity prices went down by twenty five percent, and. 0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:12.280 Of course the Prime Minister and the Climate Change and 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:15.639 Energy Minister more than happy to rub this one in. 0:03:15.639 --> 0:03:18.920 In fact, they have viewed the massive election victory, and 0:03:18.919 --> 0:03:21.200 it is massive election victory by the Labor Party to 0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:25.960 be an absolute slam dunk that the suburbs, that the 0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:30.120 Bush love the renewable any energy scheme, They love the 0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:32.799 billions of dollars, nay almost to trillion dollars which is 0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:34.320 going to have to be spent to movers from one 0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:37.200 system to another. And regardless of the fact that they 0:03:37.240 --> 0:03:39.360 broke a central promise, regardless of the fact that things 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:43.880 cost more, well, they win. So if they win, then 0:03:43.920 --> 0:03:45.720 they win for all time. So what have we all 0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:48.080 been talking about? What have the polsters been telling us 0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:50.080 for years and years and years? Apparently all of that 0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:53.120 gone finished. Well, there was a little news story that 0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:56.200 happened today, And Jesus, isn't it so convenient that it 0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:58.760 happens just a couple of weeks after the election, not 0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:01.560 a couple of weeks before or a cost of living election. 0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:05.880 Power bills are about to soar with price rises of 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:09.080 up to ten percent. In some bad news today, power 0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:13.040 prices are set to increase by almost ten percent next year. 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:15.880 Household power bills are about to go up by as 0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:17.240 much as ten percent. 0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:22.359 So the election result absolutely clear, and the official result 0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:24.880 that you have to glean from the election is that 0:04:25.000 --> 0:04:28.240 people don't care about their power bills. People don't care 0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:31.040 about an increase in their power bills. People were convinced 0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:35.760 and bought off by a government that wasn't able to 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:40.320 reduce their power bill, instead paid the power bill or 0:04:40.360 --> 0:04:42.039 part of the power bill to the power company not 0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:47.120 to pass on the endless increases. And apparently next time again, 0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:49.360 I know you and I will feel a certain way, 0:04:49.400 --> 0:04:52.200 But once you hear somebody else saying they're complaining about 0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:54.960 their power bills, we'll ask them how they voted, because 0:04:55.000 --> 0:04:58.320 obviously extreme majority, at least with their first or second 0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:00.480 preference of Australians will they're more th happy with the 0:05:00.520 --> 0:05:04.640 system that keeps promising one thing and delivering another. 0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:09.279 The best thing we can do is keeping ongoing with 0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:10.960 a roll out of renewable doing no. 0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:13.040 Quick fixes and no silver bullet. 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:15.960 That's the message from the federal government as the nation 0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:17.960 confronts an energy crisis. 0:05:18.000 --> 0:05:20.760 Renewable energy is by far the cheapest form of energy. 0:05:20.880 --> 0:05:23.719 If you've been astounded by your quarterly power bill, you're 0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:24.520 not alone. 0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:27.080 Stick with the plan for the cheapest form of energy, 0:05:27.120 --> 0:05:27.880 which is renewable. 0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:29.760 So everyone at high and has a power bill going 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:32.520 at the moment, they are reaching all time highs, aren't they. 0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:35.400 I think that renewable energy is the cheapest form of energy. 0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:39.679 Energy regulators have confirmed the default market offer will rise 0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:43.200 by as much as nine point seven percent from July one. 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:47.479 It is wild, isn't it. People tell posters that number 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:49.760 one issue is cost of living. A big proponent of 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:52.520 that is the cost of an electricity bill. They keep 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:55.800 being told that the solution to the problem is going 0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:58.760 to be cheaper, But of course the construction of the 0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:00.840 solution to the problem is one of the reasons why 0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:02.599 the power bill keeps going up and up, up up, 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:06.560 And when given a chance to vote on it, Australians 0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:10.640 seemingly didn't care. Two thirds of people made the decision 0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:14.279 not to offer anything but a ringing endorsement of what 0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:18.600 the government has put in place. But maybe it wasn't that. 0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:22.520 Maybe people didn't fall for that. Maybe, of course they 0:06:22.560 --> 0:06:25.080 believed that the Prime Minister was the one who was 0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:26.880 telling the truth, telling you that you only need a 0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:30.440 Medicare card to go anywhere near a GP clinic, and 0:06:30.480 --> 0:06:32.800 you'll be able to bulk bill, and ninety percent of 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:34.719 people will be able to bulk bill, and you'll never 0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:39.760 need a credit card again. Even though we learn that 0:06:40.600 --> 0:06:42.880 the general practitioners, the very people who would be in 0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:45.320 charge of whether they bulk bill or don't bolk bill, 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:50.279 ninety two percent of them have said they will not 0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:56.520 be running that system. Now, politics is always about what 0:06:56.640 --> 0:07:00.440 you want to debate. Politics is if things are moving 0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:03.839 your way, great because you don't have to fight on 0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:08.600 anyone else's turf. Now, no sooks, no losers is generally 0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:10.440 the way that we play the game. And I am 0:07:10.440 --> 0:07:12.400 not being either of those right now. But it is 0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:15.360 just amazing to the third of the country that overtly 0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:17.679 did not want what has ended up to be the case. 0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:21.840 The ones who saw they were basing about power bills, 0:07:22.120 --> 0:07:25.640 the ones who saw they were basing about bolt billing, 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:30.280 it now seems. And of course people are very reticent 0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:33.480 to ever say they made a mistake and Australia didn't 0:07:33.480 --> 0:07:36.440 make a mistake because of course Richo is always right, 0:07:36.760 --> 0:07:40.200 which is that the mob is always correct. But just 0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:43.160 how effective was that BS machine of the Labor Party, 0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:45.560 Just how effective was all of those little tactics that 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:48.040 we showed you when it came to the media tonight 0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:50.600 averon Channel two. Of course, they're writing the final history 0:07:50.600 --> 0:07:52.640 about how evil and terrible the Liberal Party was and 0:07:52.680 --> 0:07:56.400 how pointless it was. Of course, all focus on failure, 0:07:56.520 --> 0:08:01.640 no focus on distortion, no focus on international events. And 0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:04.000 as you know, there's a way some shark circling somewhere 0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:09.480 trying to say that the real problem, the real problem 0:08:09.600 --> 0:08:12.720 are people like me on stations like this saying things 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:16.320 that the vast majority of the establishment in Canberra does 0:08:16.360 --> 0:08:21.240 not like. And they confuse this, of course with those 0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:23.680 who called BOS on all of these things in the 0:08:23.720 --> 0:08:28.400 past being pulled too far to the right. Now. I'll 0:08:28.400 --> 0:08:31.280 explain a little bit later why there are many spectrums 0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:37.200 in Australian politics, but calling bs on bs artists pretty 0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:39.920 dead center to me. Regardless of whether you used to 0:08:39.920 --> 0:08:41.640 be a lefty, used to be a rity, are a 0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:45.760 righty or r a left winger, calling bs is dead 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:50.280 on being a good Australian. Now forgive me if I 0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:53.200 do not fall for the latest bit of garbage from 0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:58.480 the CCP, the Communist Party coming out of Beijing. Now again, 0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:01.600 Oh mate, Albot Prime Minister of all time. Jesus is 0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:04.520 a new fantastic He was a vote magnet. According to 0:09:04.559 --> 0:09:06.920 some other review of the election. I just like when 0:09:06.960 --> 0:09:10.000 you win, you did everything amazing and it is a 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:12.000 massive win and he's going to rule for many years. 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:15.040 But it doesn't mean we go away. Okay. He made 0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:18.400 this promise during the election campaign. This was particularly relevant 0:09:18.640 --> 0:09:21.679 about the Chinese ownership of the Port of Darwin and 0:09:21.720 --> 0:09:23.720 the seat of Solomon, one of two in the Northern 0:09:23.800 --> 0:09:26.040 territory that at some point earlier this year the poll 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:27.000 said they may lose. 0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:32.360 Are you announcing that the Labor government will buy back 0:09:32.559 --> 0:09:33.880 the port of Darwen? 0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:35.240 Lisa off Lambridge. 0:09:36.160 --> 0:09:36.840 What we are. 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:41.800 Doing is we will enter into negotiations to do that. 0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:46.520 That is what we've been doing informally through potential buyers 0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:49.320 up to this point already. We'll have more to say 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:52.640 over the coming period before the third of May. 0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:58.760 Problem is I don't believe him. Why, Well, check the 0:09:58.760 --> 0:10:02.319 previous comments, the past three years of bsing. And he's 0:10:02.360 --> 0:10:03.960 very good at politics and he was very good at 0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:07.040 being able to convince people that the other side was 0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:09.560 the end of everything and he was the solution to everything. 0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:11.320 Despite the fact that everything had got worse than the 0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:14.720 three anyway, well played, well played game, recognized this game. 0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:17.000 But the reason in particular I'm talking about this tonight, 0:10:17.040 --> 0:10:19.640 and in particular that I don't believe him, is because 0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:23.760 he made the same promise at the election before this one. 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:28.800 In fact, in twenty twenty two, they were promising to 0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:31.880 have a fresh look at whether the Port of Darwin 0:10:31.920 --> 0:10:34.840 would still be owned by the Chinese. And the review 0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:39.160 came out on a Friday afternoon on the twentieth of October, 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:41.520 when people were not paying attention, and in a news 0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:45.160 dump on a Friday afternoon, after promising to again get 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:47.560 rid of the Chinese from the Port of Darwin, that 0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:50.120 being the Chinese Communist Party, not the citizenry of Australia, 0:10:50.160 --> 0:10:53.240 guess what, a review concluded that it was not necessary 0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:56.960 to vary or cancel the lease. So you say one 0:10:56.960 --> 0:11:00.360 thing during election, you do another after the election, and 0:11:00.400 --> 0:11:02.320 what's to say it won't be exactly the same this 0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:06.120 time around. We've already been on this go around, and 0:11:06.160 --> 0:11:08.839 the Chinese ambassador was out and about today pretending that 0:11:08.880 --> 0:11:12.760 this is the hill he wants to die on. This, 0:11:12.840 --> 0:11:14.439 in part is what were said today that the Chinese 0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:19.800 ambassador blasts Paul and the Darwin Port lease plan is 0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:24.079 ethically questionable. Now remember, they already know that the promise 0:11:24.120 --> 0:11:26.640 has been made. They already know that a review done 0:11:26.720 --> 0:11:29.320 by this Prime Minister's office let them off the hook 0:11:29.679 --> 0:11:32.800 once before. He could have blown up during the election, 0:11:32.880 --> 0:11:36.320 but of course that would somehow mean that it wasn't 0:11:36.320 --> 0:11:38.920 a clear choice for whom to vote for. Hence why 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:41.400 I'm not falling for the theater. I don't believe that 0:11:41.440 --> 0:11:43.720 they're firing up. I don't believe there's about to be 0:11:43.720 --> 0:11:46.000 a change of ownership. If there is, great I'll be 0:11:46.080 --> 0:11:49.520 the first to sing hallelujah. But over the past ten years, 0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:52.360 the land Bridge Group has made significant investments in maintaining 0:11:52.400 --> 0:11:56.360 and building Darwin's Port infrastructure, optimizing its operations and management. 0:11:57.720 --> 0:12:01.440 These efforts have brought remarkable improvements of the broad turning 0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:06.119 the financial system a situation from losses to profits, contributing 0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:09.400 positively to the local and social development. It is ethically 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:16.520 questionable to lease the port when it was unprofitable and 0:12:16.559 --> 0:12:21.559 then seek to reclaim it when it becomes profitable. Forgive me, 0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:25.200 mister ambassador, if I do not believe you that you 0:12:25.240 --> 0:12:28.800 are truly annoyed about something that you didn't mention when 0:12:28.920 --> 0:12:32.880 it was said during the campaign, that you didn't mention 0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:37.760 when it was mentioned in the last campaign that now 0:12:37.840 --> 0:12:40.480 when probably the same people who made the decision not 0:12:40.600 --> 0:12:42.920 to do anything a couple of years ago will probably 0:12:42.960 --> 0:12:46.760 make the same decision not to do anything this time around. 0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:51.000 You could have done something if you really cared about it, mate, 0:12:51.280 --> 0:12:53.360 you could have talked about it during an election, But then, 0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:57.080 of course that would upset the grand plan. The handsome 0:12:57.120 --> 0:12:59.800 boy has already done so much. The least that could 0:12:59.880 --> 0:13:02.160 use could do is to help him with a second 0:13:02.240 --> 0:13:07.640 term in office. Right now, we know that lives in 0:13:07.679 --> 0:13:11.439 the NATS break up last week, back together now one 0:13:11.480 --> 0:13:13.360 of the subjects that he's going to be a problem 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:16.199 regardless of how long they stay in trial separation or 0:13:16.200 --> 0:13:17.880 when they get back in the house, Mom and Dad 0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:22.080 will start fighting about this again. Net zero zero zero 0:13:22.360 --> 0:13:25.840 zero at zero zero zero. And we know that our 0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:28.800 mates Barnaby, Joyce, Matt Canavan, well they say no, not 0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:32.640 interested in that doubling down on net zero for twenty 0:13:32.720 --> 0:13:35.200 fifty because of course they live in regionalarry is that 0:13:35.240 --> 0:13:39.640 are the ones grossly affected by this change. We also 0:13:39.760 --> 0:13:42.400 know that there are people now inside the Liberal Party, 0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:44.000 including people who would like to be the leader of 0:13:44.040 --> 0:13:46.840 the Liberal Party at one point in time, rock stars 0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:49.040 like Andrew Hasty, who are now openly as part of 0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:52.480 a program over there on Channel two tonight saying that 0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:54.520 he too is going to join the Party of those 0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:57.480 who don't want net zero as the policy of the 0:13:57.520 --> 0:13:58.160 Liberal Party. 0:13:59.440 --> 0:13:59.960 Net zero. 0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:04.200 Again, that's a straight jacket that I'm already getting out of. 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:07.800 The real question is should austray In families and businesses 0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:12.520 be paying more for the electricity and should we allow 0:14:12.600 --> 0:14:14.680 this sort of hypocrisy at the heart of our economy 0:14:14.720 --> 0:14:18.800 to continue, whereby we sell coal and gas to India 0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:21.120 and China and we deny it to our own people. 0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:23.960 That's the question that I think we need to answer. 0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:29.440 Fascinating to see this is the real ructure between the 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:31.440 Liberal Party and the National Party. I have goes put simply, 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:33.640 many people inside the Liberal Party, or at least the 0:14:33.720 --> 0:14:35.760 machine or the left of the Liberal Party. I'm going 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:37.400 to explain a little more about that. In the moment, 0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:40.000 they believe that if you walk away from any commitments 0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:41.800 to net zero, you're walking away from some sort of 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:44.400 commitment and understanding about the role of climate change. And 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:46.800 in the twenty first century, as more people believe in 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:49.200 doing something about the environment than God, than somehow you 0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:51.720 are slitting your political throat if you do anything other 0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:55.080 than promise that you're going to be able to change 0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:58.440 the weather. Now, remember Australia one percent of the world's problem. 0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:00.840 Even if we did every single thing that every single 0:15:00.880 --> 0:15:02.960 green had ever dreamt of, China would be able to 0:15:03.000 --> 0:15:06.480 replace what we do in your sixteen days. But because 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:09.280 of the politics of the time, the belief is that 0:15:09.320 --> 0:15:13.200 if we don't go as hard as the dreams of 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:15.760 the greens would be, then somehow we're not doing our partner. 0:15:15.760 --> 0:15:17.920 If we're not doing our part, we're contributing to the problem. 0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:19.960 Despite the fact that as I have shown you before, 0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:22.520 if you looked at a clock of all of the 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:25.480 countries of the world and how much emissions they put 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:27.960 out there, the reality is that you'd be able to 0:15:27.960 --> 0:15:32.480 go past quarter past on China, who, of course Netzera 0:15:32.560 --> 0:15:35.800 twenty fifty does not apply to. Then you go through 0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:37.360 the rest of the world and that gets you to 0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:40.840 about halfway through the clock. It doesn't apply to them. 0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:43.680 Then you go to India, which will take you to 0:15:43.920 --> 0:15:48.800 about twenty two along with Russia, they're not doing anything. 0:15:48.960 --> 0:15:51.120 Then you can move your way up to quarter two, 0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:55.800 quarter two forty five of sixty minutes, and that'd be 0:15:55.800 --> 0:15:59.200 the United States and under Trump, they are not doing 0:15:59.240 --> 0:16:01.880 these things. I no, no, But the way that we 0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:05.320 will make sure that it never rains again, never rains again, 0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:07.760 There'll never be a drought, there'll never be a bushfire, 0:16:08.040 --> 0:16:11.320 is if we do something about one percent of global 0:16:11.360 --> 0:16:15.320 emissions and right now doing forty three percent. About one 0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:18.360 percent of the world's problems is the legislative target of 0:16:18.480 --> 0:16:21.480 the Labor Party. But now with unfettered power, with an 0:16:21.520 --> 0:16:24.840 absolute ease of access to getting anything passed through the 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:27.520 left wing support of the Greens in the Senate, that 0:16:27.640 --> 0:16:30.080 number is going to become a whole lot bigger. It's 0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:32.080 one that of course they couldn't possibly discuss during an 0:16:32.120 --> 0:16:35.120 election campaign because you know that would lose them votes, 0:16:36.120 --> 0:16:38.760 but instead just talk about it in motherhood issues. Don't 0:16:38.760 --> 0:16:40.720 put any price, so I don't put any detail on it, 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:43.240 don't even pretend that there's going to be a reduction 0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:47.240 in prices. And they of course won a thumper so 0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:49.720 Australia likes this type of politics, regardless of what they 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:54.920 may well say, and according to people inside the Labor Party, 0:16:54.960 --> 0:16:57.200 their plan for the next little while is to up 0:16:57.240 --> 0:16:59.800 forty three percent of fixing one percent of the world's 0:16:59.840 --> 0:17:02.960 CLIs problems. That, by the way, what we wiped out 0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.879 by China in just sixteen days, is to replace that 0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:11.479 with a sixty five to seventy five percent target. Now, 0:17:11.520 --> 0:17:13.399 for those who rub their hands with glease a nit 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:15.520 zero all we do, if we throw it off, if 0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:16.880 we get rid of it, then we're going to race 0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:18.240 our way back to government because we're going to be 0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:20.520 able to focus on all of the price stuff we 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:23.800 did ten years ago. One of the things that makes 0:17:23.880 --> 0:17:27.000 that politics difficult as well, regardless of whether it's the 0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:30.280 right policy or not, is one part of the problem 0:17:30.280 --> 0:17:32.800 nobody ever talks about, regardless of whether you want the 0:17:32.840 --> 0:17:35.240 seventy five percent or whether you're somebody who wants nothing, 0:17:35.480 --> 0:17:39.040 when it comes to the net zero stuff state governments. 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:41.920 In fact, I went and tried to find a left 0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:44.480 wing lobby group right left wing lobby group that shows 0:17:44.560 --> 0:17:47.880 all of the climate policies of all of the different states. 0:17:49.200 --> 0:17:51.880 All you need to know is it starts at anywhere 0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:55.800 between thirty one percent of the world's problem or fifty percent, 0:17:56.119 --> 0:18:00.000 or some of them have seventy percent. So the problem 0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:02.439 and difficulty of the politics that I look forward to 0:18:02.480 --> 0:18:05.200 debating tonight, do not consider. Do not confuse what I'm 0:18:05.240 --> 0:18:08.480 talking about now as advocacy of saying no, no, no, don't 0:18:08.480 --> 0:18:10.359 go anywhere near this policy is just saying. One of 0:18:10.400 --> 0:18:12.639 the problems with coalescing around where I know a lot 0:18:12.680 --> 0:18:14.960 of people want to coalesce around, which is bugerhet zero, 0:18:15.359 --> 0:18:17.240 is how do you get around what the States are 0:18:17.280 --> 0:18:19.520 planning to do? What do you do in three years 0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:22.080 time when we've already spent the billions of dollars on 0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:25.320 different types of infrastructure. It's worth a debate one we 0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:29.960 will have in a moment or two time. Now. This 0:18:30.040 --> 0:18:31.479 week we will learn who is going to be in 0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:33.879 and out of the shadow Cabinet. Yes, it will of 0:18:33.920 --> 0:18:35.840 course have some Nats in it. After they will inevitably 0:18:35.880 --> 0:18:37.800 sign that deal in the next little while. Susan Lee 0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:41.159 as the opposition leader, well, she gets the pick of 0:18:41.200 --> 0:18:43.280 the crop. She can decide whoever she wants in there. Yes, 0:18:43.280 --> 0:18:46.040 you've got to have x number of nationals. But other 0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:48.440 than that, it's basically up to her her decide which 0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:51.639 way things are going to go. Now, interestingly, what is 0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:54.240 important here is, as always, there are people who try 0:18:54.280 --> 0:18:56.399 to sort of send little smoke signals through the media, 0:18:56.640 --> 0:18:58.960 and these are, you know, don't you dare not put 0:18:59.000 --> 0:19:01.119 my favorite person in? Don't you dare not put my 0:19:01.280 --> 0:19:03.560 favorite person in? And this happens all over the media. 0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:05.560 Right seeing this for as many many years as I've 0:19:05.560 --> 0:19:07.800 been sitting here in many years before all of that, Right, 0:19:08.320 --> 0:19:11.240 and there's plenty of talent to pick from. Right obviously, 0:19:11.240 --> 0:19:14.960 there's Angus Taylor, there's just Into nampajimper Price, There's Tim Wilson, 0:19:15.040 --> 0:19:17.119 there's Melissa mcintoye. There's lots of good people that will 0:19:17.160 --> 0:19:20.200 be really good shadow ministers. But then there's the little 0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:23.400 messages that go out saying, oh, if the super conservative 0:19:23.400 --> 0:19:25.760 ones are not rewarded by having the exact same jobs 0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:28.040 that they had in the last parliament, and somehow we're 0:19:28.040 --> 0:19:29.720 going to threaten the whole blow to show up as 0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:32.560 conversely the lefties do when they're not in charge. That's 0:19:32.600 --> 0:19:36.639 the point I'm trying to prove here. There's something that 0:19:36.760 --> 0:19:38.080 is at the heart of all of this that I 0:19:38.119 --> 0:19:40.840 think actually needs a little bit of explaining. Now, I'm 0:19:40.840 --> 0:19:42.560 not going to be able to do this as well 0:19:42.600 --> 0:19:46.960 as somebody who has done or teaches a political science class. 0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:49.440 Are not going to be able to nail every single 0:19:49.640 --> 0:19:56.199 word or terminology, like people who's absolute passion are the 0:19:56.240 --> 0:20:00.560 political parties. But I wanted to explain the fight within 0:20:00.640 --> 0:20:03.560 the fight, within the fight within the fight, and that 0:20:03.600 --> 0:20:06.640 those fights are not just exclusive to the center right 0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:12.360 of Australian politics. Now put simply the Liberal Party if 0:20:12.359 --> 0:20:14.560 you were looking at it, and they don't say theirs factions, 0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:18.120 but the teams within teams. Okay, there are the moderates, 0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:20.360 there are the conservatives, and there's the center. Right Now, 0:20:20.400 --> 0:20:23.720 some people will say, just for the point of learning, okay, 0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:26.440 just agree for a second that this is all what happens. 0:20:27.040 --> 0:20:28.520
