WEBVTT - Paul Murray Live | 13 August 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:02.040 From the Skyinging Center. 0:00:02.480 --> 0:00:08.600 This is Paul Murray Live. I can't stand when people 0:00:08.640 --> 0:00:11.280 lie to you. I can't stand when the people whose 0:00:11.360 --> 0:00:14.160 job it is to call it out look the other way. Now, 0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:17.440 you and I both know that politicians of all different types, 0:00:17.800 --> 0:00:20.200 and the people who enable them, generally in the media, 0:00:20.280 --> 0:00:24.480 they will ride a certain wave to power and then 0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:26.720 turn around and deny that they've ever been to the beach. 0:00:27.240 --> 0:00:30.040 Perfect example what's playing out right now with Kamala Harris, 0:00:30.040 --> 0:00:32.239 who was for this and now isn't for that, and 0:00:32.280 --> 0:00:36.239 the media of course nothing to see here. In Australia, 0:00:36.400 --> 0:00:38.240 the number one issue at the last election was cost 0:00:38.240 --> 0:00:40.360 of living. The number one issue the day after the 0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:42.880 last election was cost of living. The number one issue. 0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:45.320 A year after the election was cost of living, the 0:00:45.400 --> 0:00:49.080 number one issue two years after. Get the point, because 0:00:49.120 --> 0:00:52.879 the reality for millions of Australians is that, yes, due 0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:57.480 to giant global issues, things became very complicated after the 0:00:57.600 --> 0:01:02.000 years of COVID, But Australia seems to be having a 0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:05.600 longer hangover, a deeper hangover than firstly any of us expected, 0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:09.760 but most importantly that we were promised. Because you see, 0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:14.119 the people who promised to be the people who say 0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:16.440 take two and lie down and you'll be fine by 0:01:16.480 --> 0:01:19.880 the morning. Was, of course, this government, the Labor Party, 0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:23.639 the people who cheered them in by raising the noise 0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:25.640 as loud as they possibly could in and around cost 0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:27.640 of living. And then of course they do everything they 0:01:27.680 --> 0:01:30.360 can in the media to avoid the subject, over and 0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:33.280 over and over again. They turn around and tell us 0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:36.160 that while when they've got their budget it's a cost 0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:40.480 of living extravaganza, that when they're doing tax. 0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:42.160 Cuts, oh, it'll fix the world. 0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:46.360 But you and I both know, because we're still standing 0:01:46.400 --> 0:01:50.520 on the beach, that the waves keep coming and coming 0:01:50.640 --> 0:01:53.120 and coming. Okay, I won't talk youre the metaphor any 0:01:53.120 --> 0:01:56.160 longer you get them a point on this one. It's 0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:58.040 cost of living and it whacks, and it whacks and 0:01:58.080 --> 0:02:02.560 it whacks. But because there are things that are cyclical 0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:07.200 and not in control of the politicians, they of course 0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:09.480 unable to fix many of those things. But there are 0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:12.200 things that the politicians do that make things worse. But 0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:15.880 they decided to make everything personal. So I want to 0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:19.079 hold them accountable to their same standards. Unsurprisingly, most in 0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:21.840 the media have no interest in doing this whatsoever, because 0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:29.040 They don't care about the issues. They don't care about 0:02:29.080 --> 0:02:32.280 the people on the other side of this screen, or 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.600 the screen of the articles, or the other side of 0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:38.080 the speaker. They are just interested in the little game 0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:41.000 of everything that happens on this side of the screen, 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:44.360 or this side of your computer, or this side of 0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:49.600 your radio speaker. But like you, I know plenty of 0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:52.679 people that have been doing it really tough over the 0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:55.639 past couple of years. I know plenty of people who 0:02:55.639 --> 0:03:00.840 expected something different. Instead they got something far worse. And 0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:04.400 I talk about this every night because it is that relentless. 0:03:04.720 --> 0:03:08.760 In the same way that you cover a natural disaster 0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:12.520 while it's taking place day after day after day, we 0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:14.600 will do the same when it comes to cost of living. 0:03:15.520 --> 0:03:18.200 It's not about being repetitive for the point of politics. 0:03:19.400 --> 0:03:23.480 It's about showing every night that we see you, that 0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:26.040 we hear you, and that we understand that when this 0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:29.360 video spreads online to people who would not normally watch 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:32.760 the program or engage with the channel, that they understand 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:36.000 someone gets it on this side. 0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:40.320 Now, you know, and I know that of the years we've. 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:43.160 Been talking about this, there is half a dozen examples 0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:46.120 that do pop up in the media but it's not 0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:48.840 the political media. It's generally the people who are outside 0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:51.720 of the politics who end up filing stories like this, 0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:57.040 including the number of Australians who are skipping doctors appointments 0:03:57.440 --> 0:04:01.600 or turning off their heating amid the housing crisis and 0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:05.920 cost of living crisis. What about the people hundreds of 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:09.160 whom so they skip a meal, or the millions of 0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:12.240 people who go to things like food banks. Well, the 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:14.960 thousands of people who are now rubbish putting their hands 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:18.039 into a bin, dumpster diving to find food because they 0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:21.440 don't have the coin for it. Three point seven million 0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:25.919 people last year, according to Food Bank, had trouble putting 0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:27.400 food on the table. I didn't know where the food 0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:32.440 was coming from Melbourne University. Too many Aussie kids are 0:04:32.440 --> 0:04:40.160 starting a family and raising kids in poverty. Our Prime Minister, 0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:43.360 of course, whose biography when he was riding the wave 0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:47.479 of cost of living was I'm the kid from Housing Commission, 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:49.559 the single mum. I know what it's like to do it, Tarfa. 0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:52.239 I can rub two sticks together. But of course he's 0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:57.120 been in the system for decades. He really is a 0:04:57.200 --> 0:05:00.400 Joe Biden esque figure, not just because of his inc competence. 0:05:00.440 --> 0:05:03.080 But because he's been around the system. I think he 0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:06.160 worked for a bank teller in the eighties for this 0:05:06.200 --> 0:05:08.760 amount of time, and then he's been an advisor or 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:12.120 an MP for the rest of his life, meaning he's 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:15.560 expert at learning about the waves to catch and how 0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:18.839 to manipulate opinion and how to whisper sweet. Nothing's into 0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:23.240 the media to change their opinion, but his life circumstances, 0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:28.040 how he lives and whom he chooses to hang out with, 0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:29.800 tells us about how. 0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:34.280 He has strayed so far, so far. 0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:40.760 From the man that he always claims to be. Now, 0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:43.240 one other reason why the Prime Minister doesn't get it, 0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:47.320 doesn't feel the urgency. It's because he alone every other 0:05:47.440 --> 0:05:49.880 MP has got not one, not two, but three pay 0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:54.760 rises since Labor came to power. You've had twelve interest 0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:58.919 rate rises. They got three pay rises. He's now on 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:01.000 six hundred thousand dollars and one of those three, by 0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:06.200 the way, was the biggest pay rise in ten years now. Previously, 0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:10.040 when politicians felt a sense of shame or they were 0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:13.360 slightly afraid of a media that even a positive media 0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:17.279 that liked you, would call you out on BS, he 0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:21.320 hasn't even had to answer a single question about whether 0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:25.440 or not they should defer their pay rises. Nope, it 0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:29.480 sweeps in everyone's good, all the top end echelons of 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:31.840 the public service, which are often paid more than the 0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:35.240 Prime minister, fine, all of the CEOs, all of the 0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:38.400 people they're hanging out with at the front end of 0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:43.080 the plane or, in the Prime Minister's case, your own plane. 0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:47.320 It doesn't mean that they don't come from different places, 0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:49.920 but it means the people that they interact with are 0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:52.880 not the people who are hurting, so they're just noise 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:58.840 to be dealt with. Well, I'm pleased to say that 0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:04.279 the focus, the relentless focus that we have had for 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:08.280 the past couple of years, is now starting to be 0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:13.040 echoing in the wider population. Because remember when I said, 0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:14.720 I don't know what you're going to do when it 0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:17.800 comes to the election. Good luck, it's always years away. 0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:21.000 But for goodness sake, please tell a pollster that you're hurting. 0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:24.560 Send a message to these people that you're still sorry. 0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:26.280 I'm going to say for them seventeenth on, you're still 0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:29.360 on the beach, and you remember them riding the wave 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:35.239 in a poll today, And of all things, the turnbul Times. 0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:40.880 The Guardian shows that Australians, an extreme majority of Australians 0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:46.400 sixty seven percent, seven percent more than those who voted 0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:50.600 Know in the referendum Prime Minister sixty seven percent of 0:07:50.600 --> 0:07:53.160 people think that costa living gets worse in the next 0:07:53.160 --> 0:07:55.640 twelve months. This is not a poll from last year. 0:07:55.640 --> 0:07:57.320 This is not a poll from the start of this year. 0:07:57.400 --> 0:08:03.840 There's a poll from basically the August. The Reserve Bank 0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:05.880 tells us that they don't expect much to change in 0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:11.800 the next six months, but the perception of Australians is 0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:15.720 that their own personal finances will go backwards, the cost 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:20.200 of everything will continue to go up. And it's also 0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:23.640 really important to say this. You don't have to have 0:08:23.640 --> 0:08:29.960 an economics degree to be literate in what they often 0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:33.280 don't tell you about things like cost of living. 0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:34.720 Now. 0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:37.920 The reality is that inflation is measured every month and 0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:41.720 then ultimately every three months, and the focus is always 0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:46.120 just where it is this quarter, this quarter, this quarter, 0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:49.079 this quarter. But the reality is, if you go back 0:08:49.120 --> 0:08:54.200 to this point when they took over all of that 0:08:54.600 --> 0:09:01.400 combines a little bit like federal budget deficits, the gallery 0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:03.880 will have you believe that it only matters what this 0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:06.599 year's number is. But the reality is if you're in 0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:10.600 a fifty billion dollar deficit this year, it gets added 0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:14.439 to all of the other deficits. Since the country was 0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:16.400 able to balance its books and pay off its debt 0:09:17.440 --> 0:09:22.480 that's of course two thousand and seven. Any future deficit 0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:26.040 will be added to that. The expectation of the Treasury 0:09:27.040 --> 0:09:29.880 is that we are in deficit for the next forty years, 0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:33.440 and we're already in are trigting in a bit dollars 0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:37.520 worth of debt. To give you an idea of who 0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:41.719 has this opinion, is it just the hardcore Paul Murray watches. No, 0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:45.760 It's spread across the political spectrum, with one obvious exception 0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:48.760 the people who are trying to cheer on their side 0:09:48.800 --> 0:09:51.200 of politics and trying to believe the bs the Prime 0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:56.000 Minister throws their way. Seventy one percent of people who 0:09:56.080 --> 0:09:58.280 vote for minor parties. Now, this could be everything from 0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:03.160 Victorian socialists to oneation can be independence from Die in 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:06.680 Sydney all the way through to Bob Catter in North Queensland, 0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:10.720 Rebecca Sharky in South Australia and the independent voters of 0:10:10.720 --> 0:10:16.680 Tasmania seventy one percent think that the cost of living 0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:19.080 gets worse for them in the next twelve months, sixty 0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:23.480 four percent of the opposition, sixty percent of the labor 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:26.920 parties partners in crime, and just a third of Labor voters, 0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:28.720 but a third of Labour voters that are willing to 0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:33.120 blow the whistle on their own parties bs because at 0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:37.240 the end of the day, despite the spin, despite the 0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:42.360 gas lighting, despite just saying the words cost of living 0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:47.080 like they're Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz saying there's 0:10:47.120 --> 0:10:52.680 no place like home or beetlejuice. If you say cost 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:54.880 of living three times, guess what, it doesn't appear, and 0:10:54.920 --> 0:10:57.480 it doesn't disappear. If you say it three hundred times, 0:10:57.480 --> 0:11:00.280 it doesn't get better and it doesn't get worse. Action 0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:04.760 is what we'll do that. But this government, despite its spin, 0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:07.199 despite its too little, too late, despite its fiddling on 0:11:07.240 --> 0:11:09.760 the edges, despite that, while I have a loaf of bread, 0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:12.600 you can have some crumbs and you will be thankful 0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:17.520 because they were your crumbs in the first place. There 0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:20.640 are three ideas that the government that apparently at all 0:11:20.640 --> 0:11:22.680 times was focused on cost of living that the Australian 0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:27.800 public no are the true reality of the government when 0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:30.360 it comes to priorities as this, many people are in 0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:37.360 this much trouble. Two years ago, they took fifteen hundred 0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:40.120 dollars off people as an automatic tax return. That effectively 0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:45.280 meant that there was a tax increase on ten million people. 0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:49.880 Now as we're in tax time right now, I remember 0:11:49.920 --> 0:11:52.360 finder dot Com that a U the financial services website, 0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:54.000 told us that something like about a third of the 0:11:54.000 --> 0:11:56.640 country looks forward to this time of the year because 0:11:56.679 --> 0:11:58.960 there might be just a little chunk of change at 0:11:58.960 --> 0:12:02.640 the end of the complunk aim or tipping point as 0:12:02.640 --> 0:12:06.120 it is these days, that they'll be able to take 0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:09.120 that five hundred dollars or one thousand dollars and be 0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:11.679 able to use that money to either kill off the 0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:14.360 credit card, use that quick amount of money to do 0:12:14.400 --> 0:12:16.200 something they need to do around the house. It's just 0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:18.480 this not a little gift, because it's your money anyway, 0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:21.320 but it is this little moment like when you were 0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:24.280 a kid and you opened up the birthday card and 0:12:24.320 --> 0:12:32.720 you went, jeez, Nana, twenty bucks awesome, and that money 0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:34.959 should have been there last year they took it away, 0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:37.040 should have been there this year they took it away. 0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:40.640 Imagine what fifteen hundred dollars in a tax return guaranteed 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:45.240 to ten million workers would do. Now when sixty seven 0:12:45.280 --> 0:12:48.800 percent of people believe, I'd double check my number because 0:12:48.800 --> 0:12:51.520 otherwise I got fact checked sixty seven percent. If people 0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:53.520 say the cost of living situation is getting worse, this 0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:57.240 government took it off them. This government that apparently cares 0:12:57.280 --> 0:13:00.920 about cost of living, that desperately wants to pretend that 0:13:01.000 --> 0:13:06.600 they are doing something, has increased petrol taxes. It is 0:13:06.640 --> 0:13:11.040 now just under fifty cents per liter, fifty cents per lead. 0:13:11.160 --> 0:13:12.560 Every time you drive around, you have a look at 0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:17.000 that price. Fifty cents of whatever that price is per leader. 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:22.680 Tax that's increased under this government. As I showed you 0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:24.959 months ago, bottle of Bundi run. 0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:29.160 Sixty three percent of its tax. Sixty three percent of 0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:29.920 it is tax. 0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:37.800 And of course, the ultimate goal of modern center left 0:13:37.880 --> 0:13:41.440 let's be polite, but most likely hardcore left wing governments 0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:44.920 that pretend not to be left wing governments. They want 0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:47.880 to expand the size of government because the more people 0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:52.000 who physically work for governments are more likely to end 0:13:52.080 --> 0:13:55.880 up voting for center left parties who promise to never 0:13:55.960 --> 0:14:03.480 reduce the size of government. These people expect that the 0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:07.319 interaction with business should be that your biggest client is government, 0:14:07.520 --> 0:14:10.280 so you'll never get upset with them when they make 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:13.960 bad decisions, because they have the power to regulate you 0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:18.360 out of existence, to increase taxes on your businesses. You 0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:21.840 run in sign an NDA, they do a take it 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:27.200 or leave it sandwich that is unpleasant to both smell 0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:30.920 and taste, and you have to put up with it. 0:14:32.640 --> 0:14:35.560 Or there's the people who, of course, are just financially 0:14:35.600 --> 0:14:39.840 dependent on government. More money, more time, more jobs, all 0:14:39.880 --> 0:14:42.840 the things connected to. Without daddy government, we'd all fall away. 0:14:43.160 --> 0:14:49.120 All of that eventually builds to a permanent majority, where 0:14:49.120 --> 0:14:52.240 as we know, a very small section of people are 0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:55.280 the ones who actually pay the amount of tax that 0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:58.360 the government then swirls around and throws back out. In 0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:01.800 order to increase its to increase its power, and to 0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:06.720 increase its control. This government could do an awful lot 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:10.080 of things to help with cost of living. Most importantly, 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:16.240 it could double the amount of money that it funds 0:15:16.280 --> 0:15:19.720 to every charity right now, perhaps even a billion dollars 0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:24.520 they could shave off because the people who are most 0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:28.440 in need, the ones who got nothing in a tax gun. 0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:34.800 The people whose power bill goes up way higher than 0:15:35.080 --> 0:15:39.360 the little credit that they're going to throw your way. 0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:44.680 They need things like charities. Yeah, the charities of course, 0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:47.680 relying upon donations the people who don't have the money 0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:52.120 to see how the system shrinks. Government's got plenty of 0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:56.760 money for its priorities. But when the people who are 0:15:56.800 --> 0:16:00.240 suffering as a result in part of its policies are 0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:04.840 not a priority enough to receive significant help today, well 0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:09.160 it shows you. They rode the wave and now pretend 0:16:09.160 --> 0:16:14.000 they've never been to the beach. May the people dunk 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:17.480 them sooner rather than later. There we go seven hundred references. 0:16:17.560 --> 0:16:20.880 I hope you like the metaphor. But of course the 0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:23.560 real problem is Peter Dutton. Didn't you know that? Like, 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:25.840 he's the great threat to Australia. He's the reason why 0:16:26.520 --> 0:16:28.440 there's more homeless than ever before. He's of course the 0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:30.760 reason why there's oh so many problems. He's the reason 0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:34.680 why there's all this sort of social social difficulties right now. 0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:39.120 I mean, just Queen Laura Tingle, Lefty Laura Tingle, remember 0:16:39.160 --> 0:16:41.040 what she had to say about how terrible it was 0:16:41.240 --> 0:16:43.520 that he was planning to cut immigration which is what 0:16:43.600 --> 0:16:45.920 the Prime Minister was claiming to do. Oh but he's 0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:49.120 claiming to do it a little bit deeper and promising 0:16:49.360 --> 0:16:52.960 that foreign buyers wouldn't be able to outbid your kids 0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:57.760 on a house. So of course Dutton's the problem for. 0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:01.520 A major play calling this be saying, as Nicki says, 0:17:02.000 --> 0:17:04.240 you know everything that's going wrong in this country is 0:17:04.320 --> 0:17:08.200 because of migrants. And you know, I had a sudden 0:17:08.280 --> 0:17:11.280 flash of people turning up to try to rent a 0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:14.359 property or at an auction, and they look a bit 0:17:14.600 --> 0:17:19.000 different whatever you defined different as the basically he has given. 0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:22.520 Them license to be abused. Oh and of course, nasty 0:17:22.600 --> 0:17:25.200 Nicki Sava, who of course was the co pilot in 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:31.240 that nonsense immigration tinder box Darton, evil racist, blah blah 0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:34.280 blah blah, all of this garbage as opposed to what 0:17:34.359 --> 0:17:36.480 we all know, which is that who cares where you 0:17:36.560 --> 0:17:38.480 come from? Of course we do care about what you 0:17:38.600 --> 0:17:41.600 believe in terms of whether you want to be part 0:17:41.760 --> 0:17:44.200 of the society that has been built here that is 0:17:44.359 --> 0:17:48.920 respectful of race, gender, religion, no, religion, all the rest 0:17:48.960 --> 0:17:52.560 of it. No, it's just literally about a scenario where 0:17:52.760 --> 0:17:56.920 when hospital ramping means that when you call Triple O, 0:17:57.240 --> 0:17:59.480 you may or may not get an ambulance. If you 0:17:59.520 --> 0:18:01.159 do get an ambulance, you'll have to sit in the 0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:03.359 back of it because there's no room in the hospital. 0:18:03.960 --> 0:18:05.879 When you hear about governments turning around and go, you 0:18:05.920 --> 0:18:08.200 know what, come on in a million more in the 0:18:08.240 --> 0:18:10.960 next couple of years, you start to realize that maybe 0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:13.240 those cues might get a little bit longer. So I 0:18:13.359 --> 0:18:15.560 thing to do with race, religion, anything else. But this 0:18:15.640 --> 0:18:18.320 is the game they play, and Peter Arton, Peter Darton, 0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:21.160 is the one who's causing the troubles. And of course 0:18:21.200 --> 0:18:23.840 one of the great narratives that these people always trying 0:18:23.880 --> 0:18:26.840 to distract from the actual failures of the actual government. 0:18:28.800 --> 0:18:30.520 They like to tell you that the Liberal Party particularly 0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:34.680 has a problem with women. Well amazingly again, same opinion 0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:38.200 poll in the turnbul Times in the Guardian today two 0:18:38.280 --> 0:18:45.800 party preferred Guess who's leading with female voters. Labour's down 0:18:45.880 --> 0:18:48.520 by six since February of this year. The Libs are 0:18:48.600 --> 0:18:52.040 up five since February of this year. The undecideds they 0:18:52.119 --> 0:18:55.359 also are slightly up, but literally a five out of 0:18:55.440 --> 0:18:58.240 six people moved from Labor to the Libs and only 0:18:58.359 --> 0:19:01.280 one percent went onto the undecided pot. Well, that's a 0:19:01.560 --> 0:19:04.480 significant statistical movement. But of course there will be a 0:19:04.520 --> 0:19:07.159 scandal to remind us all why the Liberal party's terrible 0:19:07.200 --> 0:19:14.520 and evil and amazingly those people in the press gallery 0:19:14.560 --> 0:19:16.199 who again are cost of living that's just you either, 0:19:16.280 --> 0:19:18.879 that's all. That's as really sticklical. It's not personal, but 0:19:18.960 --> 0:19:21.760 apparently it was personal a couple of years ago. Go figure, 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:23.560 they're all the ones that are now saying the panic 0:19:23.600 --> 0:19:26.760 and having ideas about tactics and how the Prime Minister 0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:29.960 might be able to save labor from himself, despite the 0:19:30.000 --> 0:19:32.480 fact that, of course the polls in things like the 0:19:32.520 --> 0:19:35.320 City Morning All show us that fifty one percent of 0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:38.639 the country, fifty one percent of the country believe the 0:19:38.640 --> 0:19:43.159 Prime minister's performance is poor or very poor. Well, they 0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:47.520 noticed that there's a little bit of Kamala Harris magic 0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:50.080 or Kamala Harris magic. My apologies, I don't want to 0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:52.880 offend anyone. It's just only the way the President used 0:19:52.880 --> 0:19:57.479 to pronounce it. Anyway, Because Jason Claire had a slightly 0:19:57.560 --> 0:20:00.639 smart ass answer to a question in question Time yesterday, Aha, 0:20:01.560 --> 0:20:03.840 you know how the Democrats are calling the Republicans weird. Well, 0:20:04.000 --> 0:20:06.720 guess what, there's now a plan for the Labour Party 0:20:06.760 --> 0:20:09.440 to call the Liberal Party like weird, a new version 0:20:09.480 --> 0:20:12.159 of weird, which means if it's working for her, then 0:20:12.160 --> 0:20:19.520 it'll work for us, right please, Clueless Clara Now, she 0:20:19.640 --> 0:20:21.720 may well have a new job, but guess what, it's 0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:24.960 still CLARAO now and it seems she's just as clueless 0:20:24.960 --> 0:20:26.520 in her new job as she was in the old job. Oh, 0:20:26.560 --> 0:20:29.280 which is an incredible performer, which is code for talks 0:20:29.359 --> 0:20:32.679 to the media a lot bying. They're back that being 0:20:32.760 --> 0:20:35.000 other ministers, not her. But you know she's a great performer, 0:20:35.040 --> 0:20:37.399 an amazing performer. Whenever the media talks up a specific 0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:39.919 politician who you don't really know, it means they're really 0:20:40.119 --> 0:20:43.679 involved in the social set of what's happening in Canberra. 0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:46.840 Feel free to disapprove me wrong or Claire coming for 0:20:46.840 --> 0:20:49.520 an hour and we can talk it out on it. Well, 0:20:49.560 --> 0:20:51.119 as you know, she got to the backside and the 0:20:51.119 --> 0:20:53.720 Biscuit rightly so with Andrew Giles after their appalling performance 0:20:53.720 --> 0:20:55.399 in Home Affairs. But there was nothing to see here. 0:20:55.400 --> 0:20:59.000 We only moved ministers because there was a reshuffle, and 0:20:59.080 --> 0:21:01.359 of course she went from buggering up the borders to 0:21:01.480 --> 0:21:04.000 now buggering up the quarter acre block because she is 0:21:04.080 --> 0:21:07.399 going to be in charge of the housing crisis, and 0:21:07.440 --> 0:21:10.080 won't she be amazing. She was so good at home affairs, 0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:12.119 so she'd be so amazing at housing. Well, guess what, 0:21:12.240 --> 0:21:14.480 well done the PABA for noticing in the Daily maila 0:21:14.600 --> 0:21:18.360 day that she's well the same clueless Clara. Now she's 0:21:18.400 --> 0:21:19.879 as bad in this gig as she was in the 0:21:19.960 --> 0:21:22.800 last gig, particularly in her performance in Parliament. Blundering Minister 0:21:22.880 --> 0:21:26.639 Clara o'neili's face is left red faced during car crash 0:21:26.760 --> 0:21:29.480 question time days after starting a new job. Oh but 0:21:29.520 --> 0:21:31.720 she's a good performer. She's a good performer. Sorry, she 0:21:31.800 --> 0:21:35.080 on the other line, she could performer. Here's how our 0:21:35.160 --> 0:21:37.760 words salads failed to save her from an embarrassing era. 0:21:38.280 --> 0:21:41.359 You see, she was debating again government housing policy, all 0:21:41.400 --> 0:21:43.280 the rest of it, and she claimed that there was 0:21:43.359 --> 0:21:45.080 all of this data to back it up, and all 0:21:45.119 --> 0:21:47.960 of the data came from Treasury, and Treasury must be 0:21:48.080 --> 0:21:50.840 trusted because despite the fact they're always wrong on the budget, 0:21:51.000 --> 0:21:52.159 they're so right on this. 0:21:53.800 --> 0:21:56.600 The Treasury modeling for this bill tells us that we 0:21:56.680 --> 0:21:59.080 are going to have an additional one hundred and sixty 0:21:59.200 --> 0:22:02.880 thousand rental units online in a period of a decade. 0:22:03.960 --> 0:22:09.400 Guess what, it doesn't exist. There is no Treasury modeling. 0:22:12.080 --> 0:22:15.320 We want to assist Australians to have lots of different 0:22:15.359 --> 0:22:19.600 rental options. What the research shows, what the experts shows, 0:22:19.840 --> 0:22:22.320 is that the scheme in the Senate will build more homes. 0:22:22.640 --> 0:22:25.200 There is dispute about how many homes, but it will 0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:28.040 be tens of thousands of additional homes. Now, what I 0:22:28.080 --> 0:22:30.720 would say to the Parliament is that if we want 0:22:30.760 --> 0:22:33.520 to stop success and progress on this matter, then we 0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:35.520 should play politics business as usual. 0:22:36.440 --> 0:22:38.600 Oh you noticed that, I'm a four D chess that 0:22:38.680 --> 0:22:40.879 she's playing because she's a great perform a great performer, 0:22:40.920 --> 0:22:42.639 great perform, a great performance. Sorry, she's still on the 0:22:43.200 --> 0:22:44.800 I'll get back in a second. I'm just on the 0:22:44.880 --> 0:22:49.800 air well her four D chess there where the bottling 0:22:49.880 --> 0:22:53.200 is disputed. No, it's not disputed. It's not from Treasury. 0:22:53.720 --> 0:22:55.480 Something that has been noticed by I hate to say this, 0:22:55.680 --> 0:22:59.040 the Greens and the Liberals, but you know nothing to 0:22:59.080 --> 0:23:01.320 see here, great performance, performer. And then of course there's 0:23:01.320 --> 0:23:04.400 the CFMU. Now it's only one part of the CFMU. 0:23:04.480 --> 0:23:06.719 That's the problem. So technically some of their representatives can 0:23:06.760 --> 0:23:08.520 still be kind of in charge of the Labor Party, 0:23:08.520 --> 0:23:11.280 sitting on National Executive being national vice presidents. Do nothing 0:23:11.320 --> 0:23:13.399 to see here, we're going to clean up the same union, 0:23:13.440 --> 0:23:16.080
