Speaker 1: Lately, General man, welcome late pay.
Speaker 2: Well, good evening and thanks for your company.
Speaker 3: I'm James Macpherson with Liz Staurer and Caleb Bond coming up.
Speaker 3: A police officer found guilty of misconduct for stealing wait
Speaker 3: for it, a.
Speaker 2: Roll of toilet paper.
Speaker 3: No crime problems when that's the sort of thing police
Speaker 3: are investigating. We'll get to that a little later. Plus
Speaker 3: when we look at what's making news in the papers.
Speaker 3: The Prime Minister's relationship with Quantus continues to be examined
Speaker 3: after it's revealed he received more than two dozen flight
Speaker 3: upgrades and new South Wales teachers to get a massive
Speaker 3: pay rise in the nation's most generous deal for educators.
Speaker 3: We'll get to that when we look at the papers.
Speaker 3: But we want to start tonight with a story that
Speaker 3: is just quite astonishing from Victoria, which, let's face it
Speaker 3: is where most astonishing stories come from these days. Magistrates
Speaker 3: in Victoria have been trained how to avoid imposing sentences
Speaker 3: that would result in pedophiles, drug trackers and violent criminals
Speaker 3: being deported from Australia now. Judicial officials confirmed this training
Speaker 3: took place last Thursday, and people present said magistrates were
Speaker 3: being taught how to make sure that when they are
Speaker 3: sentencing non citizens, those sentences don't trigger deportation under immigration law. Unbelievably,
Speaker 3: those who were present said, this is one of the
Speaker 3: examples that was given to Victorian magistrates. They were told,
Speaker 3: imagine you've got or I don't know, a Vietnamese student
Speaker 3: here on a student visa who sexually assaults repeatedly an
Speaker 3: eight year old child. Now, magistrates were told, if you
Speaker 3: sentence that pedophile to twelve months jail or more, you
Speaker 3: leave open the possibility that that person could be deported
Speaker 3: from the country, and we don't want that, so you
Speaker 3: should sentence them to eleven months and fifteen days imprisonment,
Speaker 3: that way safeguarding the offender from ever being deported from Australia.
Speaker 3: Magistrates were also told they should never jail drug traffickers
Speaker 3: so that they won't be deported.
Speaker 2: Now this sounds so outlandish.
Speaker 3: The Herald's son went to judicial officials and said, is
Speaker 3: this all correct? The officials wouldn't confirm specific details, but
Speaker 3: they didn't deny them either. Instead, they released this statement.
Speaker 3: A Professional Development Day for judicial offices of the Magistrate's
Speaker 3: Court was held on Thursday twenty four October, which included
Speaker 3: presentations for a number of speakers on areas of the
Speaker 3: law relevant to the work of the court. The focus
Speaker 3: of the day was sentencing. The law treats deportation as
Speaker 3: a relevant circumstance for the purposes of sentencing capabiliz. I
Speaker 3: would have thought, if you're a convicted pedophile, the luckiest
Speaker 3: thing that could happen to you is that you are
Speaker 3: booted out of the country. But here you've got sentencing
Speaker 3: not being based on the crime, but being based on
Speaker 3: how the sentence might affect the poor criminal. I thought
Speaker 3: the criminal justice system was meant to support victims, not criminals.
Speaker 4: Well, supposedly, we mean to be all e under the law,
Speaker 4: and what we're talking about here is that magistrates are
Speaker 4: being lectured and judges are being lectured on the application
Speaker 4: of the law on the basis of what your nationality is.
Speaker 1: So if you're likely to be removed.
Speaker 4: From this country because you're not actually a citizen of
Speaker 4: the country, and you've committed crimes while you are here,
Speaker 4: well you should be allowed to stay, which in effect
Speaker 4: means that if you are weighing up a sentence for
Speaker 4: someone who is an Australian citizen and a sentence for
Speaker 4: someone who is not an Australian citizen. You are being
Speaker 4: advised to give a more lenient sentence to someone who
Speaker 4: hasn't actually said yes, I'm an Australian. Try to make
Speaker 4: it make sense. We don't have a justice system. In
Speaker 4: many cases, we have a legal system, and I understand
Speaker 4: why you cannot put the application of justice in the
Speaker 4: hands of victims, because of course victims would always give
Speaker 4: everyone the most heinous sort of sentence possible.
Speaker 1: I understand all of that.
Speaker 4: But when we are talking about people who have committed
Speaker 4: crimes in this country and they're not actually a citizen
Speaker 4: of this country, we have every right and should, in
Speaker 4: every circumstance, use every opportunity to kick them out, particularly
Speaker 4: crimes like pedophilia. And plenty of people who work in
Speaker 4: criminal psychology can tell you that pedophiles cannot be reformed.
Speaker 1: They are always at risk of reoffending.
Speaker 4: And if you have the opportunity to kick one of
Speaker 4: those people out of the country, you should damn well
Speaker 4: take it. Who the hell thinks they can go in
Speaker 4: and lecture magistrates and judges about the application of the
Speaker 4: law on the basis of whether you are not a citizen.
Speaker 4: It is a disgrace and I hope every single person
Speaker 4: in that room dismisses that advice out of hand because
Speaker 4: it is outrageous.
Speaker 5: And it flies in the face of judicial independence.
Speaker 6: On day one of.
Speaker 5: My studies for a juris doctor, you said this was
Speaker 5: drummed into us judicial independence.
Speaker 6: You're meant to be getting advice like this.
Speaker 5: From some sort of magistrates get together, especially such keeness
Speaker 5: advice like this. Who among us would not want a
Speaker 5: non citizen the second they are sentenced, they are convicted
Speaker 5: of molesting a child here in Australia, Who among us
Speaker 5: wouldn't want them deported immediately? You are here as a
Speaker 5: massive privilege. We extend this to you.
Speaker 6: You commit such.
Speaker 5: A disgusting crime in our country and our judges are
Speaker 5: told to let you slide. Hair raisingly, the latest figures
Speaker 5: from federal data shows that over the last five years,
Speaker 5: the number of visa cancelations due to child sex offenses dropped.
Speaker 6: From one hundred and four to just twenty seven.
Speaker 5: Now, have they just stopped molesting children or is it
Speaker 5: because of advice life this which has only just been exposed,
Speaker 5: But God only knows how long this has been The
Speaker 5: current flowing underneath the sentences that haven't been given over
Speaker 5: the last five years.
Speaker 6: It is utterly disgusting.
Speaker 5: And what we now need to know is who is
Speaker 5: behind this, Who is handing down this advice, Who is
Speaker 5: pushing this evil, evil advice on our own magistrates, whose
Speaker 5: job it is to uphold the laws of the land,
Speaker 5: our land and make sure that proper sentences, proper justice
Speaker 5: is meeted out to non citizens molesting Australian children.
Speaker 6: Is that asking for too much?
Speaker 1: Well, it ought not be.
Speaker 4: And the suggestion as well that you should give more
Speaker 4: lenient sentence to drug traffickers so that they don't I mean,
Speaker 4: you know, it is by design almost saying well, the
Speaker 4: law hasn't been changed to be as liberal as we
Speaker 4: would like it to be, so we are asking you who.
Speaker 6: Applies liberal in the first place. That is the crux
Speaker 6: of the question.
Speaker 5: Correct, nobody's answering just yet, But someone needs to get
Speaker 5: hold of this and not unclench the jaw until we
Speaker 5: have answers as to where did this come from and why,
Speaker 5: because what you're essentially saying is we want to keep
Speaker 5: immigrants here who sexually molest children.
Speaker 6: That's not even an exaggeration.
Speaker 5: That is a statement, a synopsis of exactly what's going.
Speaker 2: On, And that's the most shocking part.
Speaker 3: It's bad enough that they're saying treat non citizens more
Speaker 3: leniently than citizens.
Speaker 2: That should be an immediate no.
Speaker 3: But the fact that they went so far as to
Speaker 3: give an example of a sexual predator repeatedly sexually abusing
Speaker 3: an eight year old and say you need to work
Speaker 3: it so that this person is allowed to stay in
Speaker 3: the country just shows how confident they are that they
Speaker 3: have the judicial system in their grip and they can
Speaker 3: get away with this, or they're not even trying to
Speaker 3: hide it or to tend the sinister nature of what
Speaker 3: they're proposing.
Speaker 4: Now, if you wonder why there is this disconnect between
Speaker 4: the judiciary and the rest of us, it's because this
Speaker 4: is what they're being told to do.
Speaker 1: Now. Look, I don't know about you.
Speaker 4: I kind of figure when you go to work at
Speaker 4: the start of the day and you leave at the
Speaker 4: end of the day, you ought to be judged on
Speaker 4: the work you did during those hours. Are you actually
Speaker 4: able to do your job properly?
Speaker 7: Now?
Speaker 4: Of course, in my line of work and our line
Speaker 4: of work, Liz and James, etc. We deal in opinion, right,
Speaker 4: so you're expecting me to say some things that may
Speaker 4: be controversial or may spark your mind to think about
Speaker 4: certain issues. But to Mansion, you're running a mining company Fortescue,
Speaker 4: for instance. In this example, you would think the most
Speaker 4: important thing is that you rock up to work every
Speaker 4: day as CEO or co CEO in this case, that
Speaker 4: you can run Fortescue effectively, in this case the energy
Speaker 4: operations of Fortescue, and you can deliver a good dividend
Speaker 4: for your shareholders.
Speaker 1: You'd think that would be the number one issue on
Speaker 1: your mind. Apparently not, though, because it has come to
Speaker 1: like that.
Speaker 4: One of the co CEOs of Fortescue, Mark Hutchinson, as
Speaker 4: i said before, he's in charge of the energy division,
Speaker 4: recently became a few years ago became a director of
Speaker 4: an outfit called Alpha International.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 4: Alpha International is basically an evangelical education outfit. They run
Speaker 4: seminars all over the world educating people on the Christian doctrine.
Speaker 4: If you're interested in Christianity, you can go to a
Speaker 4: church in Australia, in England, in the US, in hundreds
Speaker 4: of nations across the world and learn about the scripture,
Speaker 4: learn about the doctrine of Christianity. It preaches pretty mainstream
Speaker 4: stuff from the Bible. But of course we know these
Speaker 4: days that if you are a Christian, you come under attack,
Speaker 4: and that is exactly what has happened to mister Hutchinson
Speaker 4: because the AFAR reported last week about the fact that
Speaker 4: him and his wife had become directors of Alpha International.
Speaker 4: We at Fordescue were most upset with that and marched
Speaker 4: off to Twiggy Forest, who owns Fortesque, to.
Speaker 1: Say, what are you doing about this?
Speaker 4: How could we possibly have a CEO who I don't
Speaker 4: know believes in Christian beliefs in his spare time, as
Speaker 4: though it had something to do with him running the company.
Speaker 4: And of course Twiggy Forests went straight to water.
Speaker 1: Didn't he.
Speaker 4: And he issued this statement over the weekend to staff
Speaker 4: saying I understand and acknowledge exactly what you felt, and
Speaker 4: I thank you for bringing it to me. He said
Speaker 4: in this note to stuff, I would like to reassure
Speaker 4: you on behalf of our board, that we are resolutely
Speaker 4: committed to the cause of equal rights. We expect and
Speaker 4: require the same of our leadership. We deeply value Fordesqu's
Speaker 4: LGBTQIA plus community. At a personal level, I stand with
Speaker 4: you now. Fordesque as a company has been quite forthcoming
Speaker 4: and outwardly proud of the fact that it supports the
Speaker 4: LGBTIQA plus community. They've even gone so far as to
Speaker 4: paint up some of their trucks in rainbow colors. And
Speaker 4: there's no suggestion that mister Hutchinson has at any point
Speaker 4: stopped this from happening. But he still comes under attack
Speaker 4: for what he does in his personal time, so he then,
Speaker 4: of course is expected to issue an apology, which he
Speaker 4: dutifully did. He said, after speaking with some of you
Speaker 4: over the past few days, I'm aware that by failing
Speaker 4: to clarify my views on same sex relationships in my
Speaker 4: comments last week, that I have.
Speaker 1: Let you down.
Speaker 4: This was certainly not my intention, and I apologize unreservedly.
Speaker 4: I wish to stay clearly that I am supportive of
Speaker 4: everyone in a same sex marriage and same sex relationships
Speaker 4: and value the LGBTQIA plus community. I believe that all
Speaker 4: of us are recall and I accept and support every.
Speaker 1: Member of our team.
Speaker 4: No one knew otherwise, no one had ever said otherwise.
Speaker 4: There was no suggestion that mister Hutchinson in his role
Speaker 4: as CEO of Fortescue, had ever done anything to make
Speaker 4: any LGBTQUIA plus member of Fortescue's staff feel uncomfortable. But
Speaker 4: it comes to light that in his personal time he
Speaker 4: is the director of a Christian organization and suddenly that
Speaker 4: has some.
Speaker 1: Bearing on his running of a mining company.
Speaker 4: We see this time and again we sort with Andrew
Speaker 4: Thorburn at Essendon Football Club, where your personal religious beliefs,
Speaker 4: which have no bearing whatsoever on your day to day job,
Speaker 4: somehow becomes an issue and it is nothing other than bigotry.
Speaker 1: You're well within your rights to disagree with the CEO's
Speaker 1: religious views.
Speaker 4: But unless he's coming to work and saying you can't
Speaker 4: work in this company here because you.
Speaker 1: Are this or you are that, what bearing does it
Speaker 1: have with his job?
Speaker 6: This is a total witch hunt. This is a complete
Speaker 6: and other winch hunt as.
Speaker 5: It was with Thorburn what was it eighteen months ago?
Speaker 5: Now the LGBTI community obviously not the whole community, but
Speaker 5: there is genuinely some nun rusty people in there who
Speaker 5: headhunt people like Hutchison and deliberately.
Speaker 1: Go after him.
Speaker 5: What is there to gain from this other than another
Speaker 5: scalp on their wall.
Speaker 6: This is why they do it.
Speaker 5: They want to see you bow the knee to their
Speaker 5: agenda instead of upholding your own beliefs. Now, Mark Hutchison
Speaker 5: has obviously done this with a gun held to his head.
Speaker 5: He has to do it otherwise, arguably he wouldn't have
Speaker 5: got to keep his position.
Speaker 6: So he's done what's asked of him.
Speaker 5: But following this line of argument from those activists within
Speaker 5: the LGBTQ community, who goes after people like him? Following
Speaker 5: that line of argument, then no company whoever flies a
Speaker 5: rainbow flag should be employing, especially not in leadership positions,
Speaker 5: any Christian, any Catholic, any Muslim individual, because you know
Speaker 5: what we believe, and like I keep saying, this comes up,
Speaker 5: there's billions of us worldwide. We're not changing what we
Speaker 5: believe for you. We answer to a much higher power.
Speaker 6: Sorry, not sorry. And this kind of witch.
Speaker 5: Hunt is they're only emboldened when they see people folds
Speaker 5: like this.
Speaker 6: It's very unfortunate that this is.
Speaker 5: The site society we're now living in where it's this
Speaker 5: easy to topple someone. Oh, this guy is a Christian,
Speaker 5: that means he holds Christian beliefs.
Speaker 6: That means we're targeted. You're not targeted.
Speaker 5: You didn't even know until some nasty found this out
Speaker 5: and decided to take him down. It's utterly disgusting. And
Speaker 5: notice this is always a one way street. It's never
Speaker 5: the Christians being like, oh, there's some people in the
Speaker 5: OLGBTI community working in my company.
Speaker 2: They've got to go.
Speaker 6: No.
Speaker 5: We much like the Muslims, just like the Catholics, we
Speaker 5: just want to be left the heck alone.
Speaker 6: Okay. We get to think, to believe what we want
Speaker 6: to believe, and there's nothing you can do about it.
Speaker 6: No matter how many.
Speaker 5: Scalps you get, whether it's Margaret Court Andrew Thorburn, it
Speaker 5: doesn't achieve anything.
Speaker 6: You can't change thousands of years of Orthodoxy period.
Speaker 3: Wellman Andrew Forrest said that they're committed to LGBTQ right,
Speaker 3: So I would just like to ask whose rights have
Speaker 3: been violated by mister Hutchinson's beliefs. FORDESQ say they're committed
Speaker 3: to diversity, especially sexual diversity. Fine, but they also say
Speaker 3: they encourage people of diverse faiths to be part of
Speaker 3: the company. Well, it's very difficult to have both of those.
Speaker 3: If acceptance equals agreement. And that's the problem. We say,
Speaker 3: you've got to accept everybody, But for me to accept
Speaker 3: you means I have to agree with you. That's actually
Speaker 3: not acceptance because I don't need to accept you if
Speaker 3: I agree with you, it's a given. The reason I
Speaker 3: accept you, and the reason it's kind is because I
Speaker 3: disagree fundamentally with you. But despite differences, I'm going to
Speaker 3: treat you with dignity. I'm going to value you, I'm
Speaker 3: going to befriend you. I'm going to be kind to
Speaker 3: you and respectful despite the fact we differ. So acceptance
Speaker 3: can't be based on agreement. Otherwise acceptance becomes meaningless. And
Speaker 3: I think that's the problem here. Well, you don't accept
Speaker 3: me because you don't agree with me. No, No, I
Speaker 3: accept you because I disagree with you.
Speaker 2: That's why I.
Speaker 3: Accept you, because I'm not going to hold our disagreement
Speaker 3: against you. And the sooner we get that straight, the
Speaker 3: sooner we can live in peace rather than people demanding well,
Speaker 3: if you don't believe what I believe, you're not accepting me.
Speaker 3: Therefore you're somehow less of a human being as.
Speaker 5: Truly, it's so easily flipped and just be like, excuse me,
Speaker 5: you're the one going after that.
Speaker 2: Job, right exactly.
Speaker 4: But it's the you raise the religious diversity thing here,
Speaker 4: and this is what is the most annoying about it,
Speaker 4: because of course Christians are an easy target because they
Speaker 4: are the majority religion in Australia, right, so they feel
Speaker 4: comfortable going after Christians.
Speaker 1: This does not happen to Muslims.
Speaker 4: And I'll use the example of in the NRL when
Speaker 4: a number of Pacific Islander Christian men who were playing
Speaker 4: further Manly c Eagles said that they didn't want to
Speaker 4: play in a pride jersey and oh it was a hullaballoo.
Speaker 1: How dare they do that? That's awful.
Speaker 4: Now there is a woman who plays in the afl
Speaker 4: W for GWS, a Muslim woman, and she has for
Speaker 4: a number of years now sat out the afl w's
Speaker 4: Pride round because she feels uncomfortable putting on a pride
Speaker 4: jersey when she does it.
Speaker 1: Oh that's fine. You're allowed to admits your religious beliefs, but.
Speaker 4: When a Christian does it, you can't possibly do that
Speaker 4: because that's bigotry. We took about diversity like it's the
Speaker 4: ultimate lack of diversity in these circumstances because we're saying
Speaker 4: your view's okay and your view.
Speaker 3: Isn't exactly well, I'll tell you a view that I
Speaker 3: think is not okay, and that's the view of the Iranian.
Speaker 3: Iranian ambassador to Australia. I'm wondering why he's still here.
Speaker 3: A month ago, he referred to the now deceased leader
Speaker 3: of Hezbala Hassan Masrala, a remarkable leader and as a martyr.
Speaker 3: This is a man who's responsible for car bombings, for
Speaker 3: hostage taking, for bombings of embassies around the world, and
Speaker 3: yet the Iranian ambassador in this country describes him as heroic.
Speaker 3: That he was brought in by the Alberenezi government, given
Speaker 3: addressing down and then sent back to his plush officers in.
Speaker 2: Canberra, but he hasn't learned his lesson.
Speaker 3: Over the weekend, he referred to Israel's strikes on Iran
Speaker 3: as a terrorist act. He said this on x the
Speaker 3: lawless Zionist enemy launched a terrorist attack on the sacred
Speaker 3: territory of the Islamic Republic of Iran in a clear
Speaker 3: violation of national sovereignty and international law. He went on
Speaker 3: to say, in defending Iran's security for brave officers and
Speaker 3: soldiers of the Iranian Army were martyred while countering the
Speaker 3: aggressors attacks. These honored martyrs are eternally remembered by the
Speaker 3: Iranian people. May their memory be cherished and their path followed. Now,
Speaker 3: back in August of this year, he referred to the
Speaker 3: Israeli state as a Zionist plague that needed to be
Speaker 3: wiped from the earth, which he described as a heavenly
Speaker 3: and divine promise. So clearly he's invoking religion to inspire
Speaker 3: people to wage war against the Jewish state until it
Speaker 3: is completely arraised, and the Albanezy government has seen fit
Speaker 3: to allow him to remain as the Irani ambassador here
Speaker 3: in Canberra. I just don't know why he's not removed now.
Speaker 3: Of course he's just parroting what Iranians believe. But Petty
Speaker 3: Wong has said that if you support Hezballah, you are
Speaker 3: a danger not just to social cohesion but to the
Speaker 3: safety of people. So why is the ambassador who promotes
Speaker 3: a terrorist regime allowed to remain. His job is to
Speaker 3: speak on behalf of one government to the other, not
Speaker 3: to make public pronouncements which then get into the civil dialogue.
Speaker 3: We've got enough social problems at the moment without the
Speaker 3: Iranian ambassador sitting in Canberra firing miss stirring things up.
Speaker 2: Liz.
Speaker 6: Much like I.
Speaker 5: Said when we were having a very similar conversation about
Speaker 5: the fact that he was mourning israela Hassan Israla, I
Speaker 5: simply made the point of here we are taking umbridge
Speaker 5: with an Iranian being Iranian at such a time as this.
Speaker 6: I genuinely it boggles me when.
Speaker 5: We in the West hear me out, We in the
Speaker 5: West don't seem to understand that those in the Middle
Speaker 5: East genuinely see US.
Speaker 6: As the terrorists.
Speaker 5: And unfortunately it's not baseless if you look at what
Speaker 5: we've done to Syria, Libya.
Speaker 6: Iraq, Afghanistan.
Speaker 5: These guys see US as the terrorists, as Israel as
Speaker 5: the US's proxy state, which again I mean the US
Speaker 5: is given more foreign aid to Israel than any other
Speaker 5: country under the Sun, over three hundred and ten billion dollars.
Speaker 5: So they they are speaking about us as they truly
Speaker 5: see us. And we knew this.
Speaker 2: They're rock and we said, but they're.
Speaker 6: Wrong, no, no, no, hear me out.
Speaker 5: We knew this when we said let's be buddies to
Speaker 5: the extent that we have an Australian ambassador in your
Speaker 5: country who recently got called in by their government because
Speaker 5: he expressed support for the LGBTQ community and you.
Speaker 6: Can't do that in Iran. What the heck was he thinking.
Speaker 2: He should come back from Iran and walk for Fortescue?
Speaker 1: Why not?
Speaker 6: But there you go.
Speaker 5: We are the ones who know exactly what the Iranian
Speaker 5: regimes stand for.
Speaker 6: We have an ambassador here and we expect him to
Speaker 6: behave in what a non supportive way you have an
Speaker 6: Iranian being Iranian.
Speaker 5: I remember was a month ago we showed he was
Speaker 5: on the Bolt Report this video of the Iranian parliament
Speaker 5: standing to its feet and literally chanting like this.
Speaker 6: They hate America. Death to America, Death to America.
Speaker 5: And I was sat there thinking, might the only Westerner
Speaker 5: with enough knowledge of the Middle East and our activities
Speaker 5: just within my lifetime to be like, yeah, I would
Speaker 5: too if you are Iranians, if your Irates.
Speaker 3: Plenty of Iranians who hate the Islamic regime. Australian Iranians
Speaker 3: are outraged at what the ambassador here is allowed to
Speaker 3: say because they can't stand the Islamic ragiing. So when
Speaker 3: you say that's how Iranians think, that's not how Iranians think.
Speaker 5: That's how oh yeah, ninety million Iranians back home, not
Speaker 5: Australian there arraging.
Speaker 4: Let's too at a cartoon that was in the Age
Speaker 4: and the City Morning Herald over the weekend. Now, if
Speaker 4: you haven't already seen it, will show it to you
Speaker 4: here and I'm sure you'll be pretty quickly be able
Speaker 4: to work out what is wrong with it. It was
Speaker 4: by a cartoonist, Alan Moyer. He has drawn for the
Speaker 4: Nine Papers formerly the Fairfax Papers for a very long time.
Speaker 4: And you can see underneath the heading there between the
Speaker 4: idea and the reality lies the shadows, which shows the
Speaker 4: shadow of Benjamin Nettan Yahu and a representative from Hamas
Speaker 4: standing side by, say, under a joint shadow. Now in
Speaker 4: that bottom left hand corner you can see an Israeli
Speaker 4: flag that has a five pointed star of David, of
Speaker 4: course instead of six. Now that also happens to be
Speaker 4: Satan's five pointed pentagram, which has led many people to say,
Speaker 4: hang on a minute, is this not anti Semitic? How
Speaker 4: did it make it into the paper in the first place.
Speaker 4: You contrast that with the Palestinian flag, which is drawn correctly. Well,
Speaker 4: Lo and behold, the same newspapers that published this cartoon
Speaker 4: have now apologized and pulped it and removed it from
Speaker 4: the record and said we're very sorry, we made a mistake.
Speaker 4: I find it so funny every time these things happen.
Speaker 4: You know, you publish a piece, or you publish a cartoon,
Speaker 4: it goes through.
Speaker 1: Having worked in newspapers.
Speaker 4: I know how many sets of eyes these things go past.
Speaker 4: And at no point in that did anyone go hmm,
Speaker 4: there might be a small issue here.
Speaker 1: But later on someone points it out and.
Speaker 4: Says, excuse me, what do you think you're doing, And
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, oh, we're so sorry.
Speaker 1: We shouldn't have done that. Well, why did you do
Speaker 1: it in the first place?
Speaker 3: Unintentional era, There was a lot of effort that went
Speaker 3: to to produce that unintentional error, and there was a
Speaker 3: number of mistakes there. They essentially made some sort of
Speaker 3: equivalence between Hamas and Israel in the drawing net, Yahoo
Speaker 3: is the larger figure, implying Israel more responsible. Not only
Speaker 3: did they put the Satanic star on the Israeli flag
Speaker 3: rather than the Star of David. They couldn't even spell
Speaker 3: Benjamin Netanyah, Who's name correctly in the cartoon. So there's
Speaker 3: so many problems with this cartoon, the fact that it
Speaker 3: was drawn, the fact that it got through sub editors,
Speaker 3: and then of course it's a you know, an unintentional error.
Speaker 3: As you say, it's always one way. I'm just wondering
Speaker 3: whether the Press Council will follow this one up. Remember
Speaker 3: a guy called Bill Leek who got absolutely hounded by
Speaker 3: the Press Council for a cartoon that was depicting Indigenous
Speaker 3: people in a way that some did not like.
Speaker 2: Will anyone do anything about this?
Speaker 3: I absolutely doubt that the Jewish community will get really upset.
Speaker 3: The Press Council will shrug their shoulders and it will
Speaker 3: be play on as if it never happened.
Speaker 6: The same with Lunic.
Speaker 5: Remember he had a very well it was said to
Speaker 5: be very controversial during the COVID days because he was
Speaker 5: taking on the government in this.
Speaker 6: Instance, and he was fired. That was the Sydney Morning Herald.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they cut him down to once a
Speaker 4: week or something, right, So it's like so on one
Speaker 4: hand that oh, we couldn't possibly have questioning of the
Speaker 4: government in our cartoons, But they're quite happy to publish
Speaker 4: a cartoon like that. I just don't buy the apology
Speaker 4: in it. And it's so often the case they're more
Speaker 4: than happy to publish stuff that he's clearly provocative and
Speaker 4: in this case creates a cartoonist.
Speaker 1: Well, then if you're going to do that, don't go
Speaker 1: to water over. You got to back yourself in.
Speaker 2: And here's the other thing.
Speaker 3: If you want to be provocative, when was the last
Speaker 3: time you saw a cartoon in the city Morning Hell
Speaker 3: in the Age that depicted Mohammed or Muslims in a satirically.
Speaker 3: We're all very well aware of Charlie hebdo and that's why.
Speaker 3: And that's another point of hypocrisy. If you're going to
Speaker 3: be brave as a cartoonist, then be brave. But you're
Speaker 3: not being brave by picking on the Jewish community. That's
Speaker 3: just weakened cowardly. Well, let's go to America, Liz tell
Speaker 3: us about the Trump relic, because I just stole your thunder,
Speaker 3: but I don't want to go ahead, drew my breath in.
Speaker 6: To be like and now and he was charging straight.
Speaker 6: Thanks Max, Thanks to America.
Speaker 5: Now where a gosh, that election is happening very soon,
Speaker 5: and they have had a packed out rally in Madison
Speaker 5: Square Gardens for the Trump campaign. Check out the extent
Speaker 5: of this crowd that you're about to see, absolutely packed house.
Speaker 6: The what do you call it?
Speaker 2: Environment stadium?
Speaker 6: It was absolutely electric. I watched most of it. You
Speaker 6: had to be there.
Speaker 5: But you wouldn't believe how MSNBC decided to depict this rally.
Speaker 1: You see it there on your screen.
Speaker 8: In that place is particularly chilling because in nineteen thirty nine,
Speaker 8: more than twenty thousand supporters of a different fascist leader,
Speaker 8: Adolf Hitler, packed the garden for a so called pro
Speaker 8: America rally, a rally where speakers voiced anti Semitic rhetoric
Speaker 8: from a stage draped with Nazi banners. Against that backdrop
Speaker 8: of history. Donald Trump, the man who was threatened to
Speaker 8: use the military against opponents he calls enemies from within,
Speaker 8: who has threatened to use the troops to quell what
Speaker 8: he says are lawless cities, and to use those troops
Speaker 8: to carry out mass deportations of immigrants.
Speaker 6: Can you believe the hysteria?
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, Back in the day, the same venue was
Speaker 5: used by get what he said there a different fascist
Speaker 5: leader Hitler, of all people. Well, this has to be
Speaker 5: the weirdest fascist rally this time round, because Jews seem
Speaker 5: to be attending in abundance and having.
Speaker 6: A great time. You would remember last week where fired chief.
Speaker 5: Of staff mister Kelly had gone on air to tell
Speaker 5: people that when he was working for Trump, Trump once
Speaker 5: said that Hitler did good things too.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 5: The Kamala campaign ran with this, literally standing behind podiums.
Speaker 6: Addressing the nation being like.
Speaker 5: This guy upholds Hitler, he is Hitler, he is twenty
Speaker 5: twenty four's version of Hitler. He must be stopped at
Speaker 5: all costs. Well, Holocaust survivor his name's Jerry Wartski has
Speaker 5: taken to his own cameras to tell the truth of
Speaker 5: this matter and to say I'm throwing my weight behind Trump.
Speaker 6: Don't you dare be saying.
Speaker 5: Such outrageous nonsense. I live through what you're talking about.
Speaker 5: There is absolutely no comparison.
Speaker 9: Adolf Hitler invaded Poland when I was nine years old.
Speaker 9: He murdered my parents and most of our family. I
Speaker 9: know more about Headler than kamalaver No in a thousand
Speaker 9: lifetimes for her to accuse President Trump of being like
Speaker 9: Hitler is the worst thing I ever heard in my
Speaker 9: seventy five years. He is living in the United States.
Speaker 9: I know President Trump and he would never say this.
Speaker 9: And Kamala hard His knows that she owns my parents
Speaker 9: have the else who was murdered by Hitler in apology
Speaker 9: for repeating the sleigh.
Speaker 5: Well, said Jerry Wartski, this is something that we're not
Speaker 5: talking about enough in the media. How obviously we've talked
Speaker 5: about how this is very inflammatory. You're basically begging for
Speaker 5: somebody else to try and assassinate today's Hitler.
Speaker 6: Who wouldn't kill Hitler back in the day if they
Speaker 6: were given a chance, etc. And so on.
Speaker 5: But not enough people are speaking from this extremely powerful
Speaker 5: perspective and saying by equivocating Trump and Hitler, you are
Speaker 5: completely belittling what we lived through. By saying, oh, this
Speaker 5: is today's modern version, He's going to do the same.
Speaker 6: This is utter nonsense.
Speaker 5: I lived through that traumatic time in history, and you
Speaker 5: want to equivocate with Trump.
Speaker 4: I just I can't get over taking a location and
Speaker 4: saying that because Trump had a rally in the same
Speaker 4: location as a Nazi rally eighty five years ago, that's
Speaker 4: how desperate that there is somehow a connection between the two.
Speaker 4: I mean, and look, look, let me say that the
Speaker 4: Labor Party in Australia was once upon a time the
Speaker 4: party of the wide Australia policy. Do we run around
Speaker 4: now saying that the Labor Party is the party of
Speaker 4: the wide Australia policy because you know, some eighty odd
Speaker 4: years ago. That's no, of course we don't, because it's
Speaker 4: damn well moved on to take a location, I mean,
Speaker 4: for him and sake, who knows the land that I
Speaker 4: had a coffee on today, Someone once upon a time
Speaker 4: probably sat at that table and said something thoroughly outrageous. Well,
Speaker 4: perhaps I should be banned from ever coming on television
Speaker 4: again because I sat at the same table as someone
Speaker 4: who said something that was outrageous.
Speaker 1: Like that is how.
Speaker 4: Desperate they are at this point to find anything to
Speaker 4: get Trump with and with a straight face. Although we
Speaker 4: didn't actually see the face of the MSNBC presenter in
Speaker 4: that package, and thank god, because I can't believe that
Speaker 4: he would have been able to say that with a
Speaker 4: straight face, but to say that so earnestly as though
Speaker 4: Trump is literally hitler because he had eighty five years
Speaker 4: later in the same place as there was a Nazi rally.
Speaker 3: I mean, I give it, but it's even worse than that,
Speaker 3: because it wasn't just MSNBC Tim Waltz, Kamala Harris's running mate,
Speaker 3: he said the exact same thing and repeated the same
Speaker 3: accusation Square Garden Rally eighty five years ago, he did
Speaker 3: the same thing to your point about how disrespectful this is,
Speaker 3: and it's dangerous on a number of levels.
Speaker 2: We've seen this with racism.
Speaker 3: When you call everything racism, then nothing is racism, and
Speaker 3: when you get actual racism, you can no longer define
Speaker 3: it right. When everything is Hitler, and when everyone's a Nazi,
Speaker 3: then when you get actual Nazis, and you get actual
Speaker 3: far right people who are going to do terrible things,
Speaker 3: then it's just we've heard this so many times it
Speaker 3: becomes for us cried books.
Speaker 5: It's like, oh, are they really because you're called Trump Hitler.
Speaker 3: Sat and then you mentioned you know, we've already had
Speaker 3: two two and a half assassination attempts. If Trump is Hitler,
Speaker 3: well there's only a few days left to remove Hitler
Speaker 3: from the scene. And if that's a Nazi rally, then
Speaker 3: all the people there in support of Trump. By definition,
Speaker 3: are Nazis?
Speaker 2: Are they not?
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 3: Aren't you inciting violence potentially not just against Trump but
Speaker 3: against all of his support?
Speaker 1: Yeah? And remember how well that kind of line of
Speaker 1: thing went. Hillary Clinton talked.
Speaker 4: About the basket of deplorables attacking the people who support Trump.
Speaker 1: It doesn't really work.
Speaker 4: And speaking of Hillary Clinton, median Tony Hinchcliff spoke at
Speaker 4: this rally and he did not miss.
Speaker 10: Hillary Clinton said that this is a Nazi rally here today.
Speaker 2: Can you believe that.
Speaker 10: For the most anti war president of my entire lifetime?
Speaker 2: And she because Hitler.
Speaker 10: Let me remind you, Hilary, it was your husband who
Speaker 10: shot innocent people or is he called them interns?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hilary, I bet you did not see that one coming.
Speaker 10: By the way, if I commit suicide in three weeks,
Speaker 10: I didn't.
Speaker 1: We got a good there.
Speaker 4: And speaking of the Trump campaign, as we've been telling
Speaker 4: you consistently, jd. Vance has just turned out to be
Speaker 4: one of the best performers anywhere I think in this campaign.
Speaker 4: And one of the things that really sets him apart
Speaker 4: is his ability to pull apart the left wing media
Speaker 4: in the US because he's not afraid to go and
Speaker 4: talk to them. He's been talking to them for years.
Speaker 4: So when he is faced by their ambushes, when he
Speaker 4: is faced by their ridiculous lines of questioning, he just
Speaker 4: destroys them. And so it was on C and N
Speaker 4: with Jake Tapper, who you may remember from the first
Speaker 4: debate Donald Trump head with Joe Biden. He did not
Speaker 4: miss much like the comedian didn't.
Speaker 11: I frankly don't believe what you're saying about Donald Trump's words.
Speaker 11: If you'd like to put up a clip and actually
Speaker 11: put him in context, I think the American people would
Speaker 11: realize that Donald Trump is a hell of a lot
Speaker 11: more reasonable than the people like Liz Chaney who would
Speaker 11: like to lie us into war. Ask yourself a basic
Speaker 11: question about network integrity. You guys talked about the Russia
Speaker 11: hoax NonStop.
Speaker 2: The FBI was invested in talk, and so you took.
Speaker 11: The words of unnamed FBI agents and put them on
Speaker 11: your network as if they were the gospel truth. You
Speaker 11: did it again and again. A viewer of your network
Speaker 11: would have believed that Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin conspired
Speaker 11: in twenty sixteen. That was totally, im preposterously false. Now well,
Speaker 11: that's what you just said is false. We covered an
Speaker 11: FBI investigation. I don't know why you want to talk
Speaker 11: about the FBI investigation. You covered it in a way
Speaker 11: that gave credence to anonymous sources accusations. You did it yourself,
Speaker 11: your network did it.
Speaker 4: I wish I had the ability of that, man. I'm
Speaker 4: working on it. Hopefully one day I will get there.
Speaker 4: Before we get to the breakdough. In New South Wales,
Speaker 4: Freedom Loraine Supreme. Once again, they're legalizing e scooters.
Speaker 6: Now.
Speaker 4: I know some of you at home probably think all
Speaker 4: these things are an absolute light on the landscape.
Speaker 1: How doare people be getting around on these e scooters?
Speaker 4: And I know sometimes they litter the footpaths of ce
Speaker 4: but seriously, why can't you get around on an e scooter?
Speaker 4: E bikes illegal in New South Wales.
Speaker 1: I don't know why you can argue that e scooters shouldn't.
Speaker 3: I wrote an e scooter in Brisbane and I had
Speaker 3: the best time gast argument for it. No no, but
Speaker 3: I almost killed myself and I almost killed a number
Speaker 3: of other people, which is why I don't know that
Speaker 3: this is such a great idea. There are danger to
Speaker 3: pedestrians there are danger on the road there and I
Speaker 3: saw a trip hazard.
Speaker 2: They get left everywhere and the Melbourn City.
Speaker 3: Councilors banned them. I don't think New South Wales should
Speaker 3: legalize it.
Speaker 5: The reason for legalizing it is as an answer to
Speaker 5: congest in really, so instead of driving, you're going to
Speaker 5: be on like this little reef sare.
Speaker 6: I do not see the rationale behind this.
Speaker 2: Whatsoever we should we should go out.
Speaker 6: We already have e.
Speaker 5: By flying around all over the place.
Speaker 6: Now we're going to have e scooters as well.
Speaker 2: We don't need We're going to go to a break.
Speaker 3: When we come back, we'll look at what's making news
Speaker 3: and to Borrow's papers, including Anthony Albanezi under the microscope
Speaker 3: over those sweet Quantus steels that's coming up in a moment.
Speaker 3: Welcome back to the program. Well, Ellen Joyce has long
Speaker 3: gone from Quantus, but he continues to haunt Anthony Albanezy.
Speaker 1: Kale, oh doesn't he?
Speaker 4: Just Let's look at the Daily Telegraph tomorrow. And we
Speaker 4: were speculating in the break this photograph, which of course
Speaker 4: has come back to haunt these two gentlemen what they
Speaker 4: might have been saying to each other in this circumstance,
Speaker 4: and I think it might have gone something along the
Speaker 4: lines of Albow.
Speaker 1: Saying, bitchy Joyce, bitcha Joyce. Did you think I can
Speaker 1: go to London on the cheap?
Speaker 4: And then mister Joyce is something to be sure, to
Speaker 4: be sure, well, to be sure, to be sure as
Speaker 4: long as you give us a week. Well you know
Speaker 4: he's an irishman.
Speaker 1: Perking.
Speaker 3: I realize you were doing the voices from the pulling
Speaker 3: Hanson's One Nation.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, Look I've got a moonlight on the side.
Speaker 4: It was busy during the data cash Perking, class man.
Speaker 1: I mean, what a great headline to this story? Has everything,
Speaker 1: doesn't it.
Speaker 4: Anthony Alberizi's perk saga sawed to new heights yesterday as
Speaker 4: it was revealed he had received at least two dozen
Speaker 4: freebies from the airline. The Coalition seized on the allegations
Speaker 4: the Prime Minister.
Speaker 1: Would personally ask former Quantus.
Speaker 4: CEO Alan Joyce for flight upgrades, accusing him of having
Speaker 4: run a protection racket for Quantas Now. The point was
Speaker 4: made throughout the evening on this channel by various hosts
Speaker 4: and guests that if you did this in the private sector,
Speaker 4: it may well be considered corruption.
Speaker 1: At the very least, you'd probably be.
Speaker 4: Booted from whatever company you were working for. And it
Speaker 4: just highlights the relationship ship between the airline sector and
Speaker 4: the federal government. The federal government decides who can operate
Speaker 4: in this country the slots that they're allowed to use,
Speaker 4: which is exactly what we saw with the Qatar decision
Speaker 4: where they were not allowed to come in and run
Speaker 4: extra international flights out of Australia. How when you are
Speaker 4: the Transport Minister, the man responsible for making the decisions
Speaker 4: about which airlines can operate and how many flights they're
Speaker 4: allowed to have, are you able to not just accept.
Speaker 1: Freebies from quantas.
Speaker 4: But call up the CEO at the time and say, buddy,
Speaker 4: I'm going on private travel, not even business travel, and
Speaker 4: I want an upgrade and that somehow squeaky clean.
Speaker 1: This stinks too high heaven.
Speaker 2: Well, here's a question.
Speaker 3: Can the CEO of the airline say no to a
Speaker 3: request like that?
Speaker 1: Why would you say no?
Speaker 3: You could not say no because this person stands has
Speaker 3: the power to either help you or to cripple your business.
Speaker 2: You have to agree to the upput.
Speaker 4: The only thing you can accuse Alan Joyce off. He
Speaker 4: is smart business, I mean his currying favor with the government.
Speaker 1: Why would is on elbow.
Speaker 3: For Elbow's no friend, because you don't put a friend
Speaker 3: in the situation that Elbanezi has apparently put Ellen Joyce.
Speaker 6: Skin well, not a legitimate friend.
Speaker 5: No, but obviously he would have been banking on the
Speaker 5: fact that we.
Speaker 6: Were never supposed to find out. We're never supposed to
Speaker 6: find out.
Speaker 5: About any of this named, any scandal that we uncover
Speaker 5: about any politician, you were never supposed to find out
Speaker 5: about it. And I like to remind us every time
Speaker 5: one of them makes the front page.
Speaker 6: This is just the tip of the iceberg. What do
Speaker 6: you think we don't know about?
Speaker 5: So I love it when these stories come to life
Speaker 5: because it serves as a reminder how much else don't
Speaker 5: you know about?
Speaker 6: This dodgy dude?
Speaker 5: He's calling up his mate, heading up this airline and
Speaker 5: being like, how about a freebe buddy.
Speaker 6: That buddy has.
Speaker 5: No chance in hell of saying no, so he's going
Speaker 5: to say yes.
Speaker 6: Now it's on the front page, right where it belongs.
Speaker 5: Something like this should end Albow because this is exactly
Speaker 5: what speaks to this persona of you're whining and dining
Speaker 5: with the rich guys. You don't give a toss about
Speaker 5: us at the bottom, just trying to feed the kids,
Speaker 5: put our kids through school, earn.
Speaker 6: An honest living. You're up there high flying for free.
Speaker 5: You don't even pay your own way, even though you
Speaker 5: could afford it a lot more than we could. We
Speaker 5: know what you're paid, we pay you. Something like this
Speaker 5: should be one of the final nails in his coffin.
Speaker 6: Coming up to an election in April, we have to well,
Speaker 6: you heard it here first.
Speaker 5: I just called the election in April April May's there's
Speaker 5: nobody betting market.
Speaker 6: But if there was, I reckon that'd be a good point.
Speaker 5: But we need to keep a list of these things, right,
Speaker 5: because these things tend to make front headlines and then
Speaker 5: by the next week it's forgotten.
Speaker 6: But if you will mask them all and put them.
Speaker 5: Into a very big spreadsheet, it should be enough to
Speaker 5: finish the match.
Speaker 2: Just before we move on to the next story.
Speaker 3: The headline you said was a great headline, Perkin class man.
Speaker 3: I just pity the next Prime minister who grows up
Speaker 3: in a single parent home in a housing commission.
Speaker 2: Flat and everyone will say, oh, here we go.
Speaker 3: He's just gonna grab every perk he can get.
Speaker 2: Ruined it for the next time.
Speaker 4: To be fair to the bloke, he couldn't afford to
Speaker 4: pay for those first class flats because he had to
Speaker 4: save up for a four million dollar house on the scene. Yeah.
Speaker 6: True, he's been scrimping and safe.
Speaker 4: You know, we got to think about how hard the
Speaker 4: bloke's been doing it. I know when Kea starmasu Ki
Speaker 4: Stamma that the recently elected prime Minister in the UK
Speaker 4: got caught out with similar sort of saffery. Recently they
Speaker 4: were calling him free gear Kia. I forget where I
Speaker 4: read it today, but I saw Albert Freebee's news, so
Speaker 4: maybe that won't catch on now. The story on the
Speaker 4: front of the Telly Tomorrow Rich Nimby's in.
Speaker 1: The Secret Pub spoiler.
Speaker 4: Residents in one of Sydney's most exclusive buildings, the Toaster
Speaker 4: at Circular Key, are locked in a battle with a
Speaker 4: pub which is set to test Premier Chris Men's commitment
Speaker 4: to getting the city moving. The Squire's Landing Bar is
Speaker 4: seeking approval to trade twenty four to seven in a
Speaker 4: move it said would support Sydney's nighttime economy, but a
Speaker 4: group of Nimbi's from the Benelong One building on the
Speaker 4: opposite side of Circular Key are attempting to derail the plan.
Speaker 4: Now look strange idea, I know, but if you buy
Speaker 4: an apartment in a building on Circular Key right next
Speaker 4: to the Opera House, right next to Opera Bar, you know,
Speaker 4: one of the busiest tourist places in in Sydney where
Speaker 4: all of the cruise ships come in, there's a bar
Speaker 4: over the way, you know how sound travels over the water.
Speaker 4: And then you're like, how dare people enjoy themselves inside?
Speaker 2: I think you're being unfair.
Speaker 3: When they bought these apartments, there wasn't twenty four to
Speaker 3: seven trading. Now the government changing the rules, I think
Speaker 3: they've got.
Speaker 2: Every right to be upset about.
Speaker 1: Oh but I mean, look, what did you think was
Speaker 1: going to happen?
Speaker 3: Maybe they wouldn't have bought the apartment if if twenty
Speaker 3: four to seven trading existed, they would have said, you know,
Speaker 3: we don't oh kindly aloys, if you're now the go
Speaker 3: changing the regulations, they're not happy.
Speaker 2: Well, I wouldn't be.
Speaker 6: Able to know. Definitely, they're locked in a battle.
Speaker 4: If you don't afford to live in the toaster, you
Speaker 4: can afford to put double glazing on your windows.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: There's a way floors and have first class flights to
Speaker 3: London and have glazed windows.
Speaker 2: So something's got to give Caleb it.
Speaker 5: Wugs are so cheap they're almost free. In fact, if
Speaker 5: you fly first class you'll get a pair for free
Speaker 5: that you can just reuse every night if you're in the.
Speaker 6: Bent Along building. Townsville bulletin now, oh.
Speaker 5: My goodness, how is this for a news flash?
Speaker 1: Jaws hit the.
Speaker 6: Floor too little, too late.
Speaker 5: The splash reads Myles's admission on Townsville crime. Defeated Labor
Speaker 5: leader Stephen Miles has conceded his party didn't that quickly enough,
Speaker 5: only as you have crime in Townsville, telling media the
Speaker 5: former government got it wrong in the North Queensland regions. Wow, wow, wow,
Speaker 5: this is revelatory. It only took you losing to come
Speaker 5: to this conclusion. I'm sure this is really our cold
Speaker 5: comfort to the people who have been campaigning for months
Speaker 5: and months and months.
Speaker 6: To see you do something.
Speaker 5: You and your government do something about the unprecedentedly high
Speaker 5: crime rates in North Queensby fairly to suck mate.
Speaker 3: They only had nine years, which is not nearly enough
Speaker 3: time to get on top of that barely run up
Speaker 3: very quickly. In the Herald's son one million dollar lighter
Speaker 3: on Tobacco reads the headline Criminals Court selling elicit tobacco
Speaker 3: will be fined up to a million dollars for a
Speaker 3: first offense in.
Speaker 2: A plan proposed by the state opposition.
Speaker 3: For context, the current fine for selling elicit tobacco is
Speaker 3: forty seven thousand dollars. The Opposition are going to increase
Speaker 3: that to a million, which when you say you should
Speaker 3: put the finger up like this, a million dollars hang on.
Speaker 4: So magistrates have just been told that pedophiles in Victoria
Speaker 4: shouldn't be deported. But do you still have a legal
Speaker 4: cigarettes and they're going to find you a million dollars
Speaker 4: in or is gone.
Speaker 6: Is going to raise even more revenue for the state. Now, beautiful, we're.
Speaker 2: Going to go to a break, butit stick around when
Speaker 2: we come back.
Speaker 3: A police officer found guilty of misconduct for stealing a.
Speaker 2: Roll of toilet paper coming up in a moment.
Speaker 3: Well as in Australia, there's a crime crisis in the
Speaker 3: UK and now we know why.
Speaker 2: Rather than tracking down criminals.
Speaker 3: Police have been trying to work out where the toilet
Speaker 3: roles have been disappearing too. A police misconduct hearing found
Speaker 3: a police woman guilty of stealing a toilet roller a
Speaker 3: roll of toilet paper from the station. She claimed she'd
Speaker 3: just taken it to clean up some spillage in her car,
Speaker 3: but they said she had concealed the role of toilet paper,
Speaker 3: which meant she was actually stealing it. Furthermore, they did
Speaker 3: in search of her home and they found toilet rolls
Speaker 3: and empty toilet rolls at her home, six of them
Speaker 3: in fact. Now, she had already left the police force
Speaker 3: when this misconduct hearing was conducted, so she wasn't booted
Speaker 3: out of the force, but it was recorded on her record.
Speaker 3: Ellison Tompkins of the UK Police said honesty and integrity
Speaker 3: are fundamental tenets of a police officer. Removing any items,
Speaker 3: regardless of the value, without permission is considered to be
Speaker 3: dishonest by the standards of professional behavior, and so it's
Speaker 3: good that they've found this woman. May she never be
Speaker 3: allowed back on the police Can you.
Speaker 5: Live going to her house and checking out the empty rolls? No,
Speaker 5: these are definitely from the station. They can't even fire
Speaker 5: her because she's already left. She'd probably stopped up before
Speaker 5: she left. But before we leave you tonight, check out
Speaker 5: the power and the passion of this little Chinese lady
Speaker 5: at a Trump rally.
Speaker 6: You can tell it's not her first road with communism.
Speaker 6: Well Chinese.
Speaker 7: For us, the generation we love timp from our bottom
Speaker 7: of the hard because we know Tember is the only
Speaker 7: one can save America.
Speaker 6: Kamala is so stupid, she is so low.
Speaker 7: Aq Eco don't kill no qualification.
Speaker 6: To be the president.
Speaker 7: You shall stay away from that possession.
Speaker 5: Her rand literally goes for three minutes solid.
Speaker 6: This woman gets on her soapbu she is ready to go.
Speaker 5: They should have had her on the podium at Madison
Speaker 5: Square Garden like she was ready to go.
Speaker 4: Man, just when you thought you loved your fantasy, stole
Speaker 4: a roll of toilet paper and then you had to
Speaker 4: reconsider it all very quickly before we go. American Airlines
Speaker 4: has come up with a genius way to stop people
Speaker 4: who cut in front of the queue when they're boarding
Speaker 4: for the plane. If you go up when it's not
Speaker 4: your turn to go up, they're calling, you know, Rose
Speaker 4: one to six or whatever, and you scan your boarding
Speaker 4: pass and you're.
Speaker 1: In that group, big alarm goes off and says, you know,
Speaker 1: these person's a cue jumper, cue jumper. I think it
Speaker 1: is brilliant.
Speaker 4: I've never understood why people rush to get on a plane.
Speaker 1: Sit there, have another drink, Wait until they call your name.
Speaker 1: The plane's not going to leave with not all our code. Taylor,
Speaker 1: that's it.
Speaker 3: We got to go good night, but stick around and
Speaker 3: coming up is the readA Penny Show
