WEBVTT - Paul Murray Live | 12 February 0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:05.000 From the Sky New Center. This is Paul Murray Live. 0:00:06.519 --> 0:00:08.240 I mate, come into the man Cave because we have 0:00:08.320 --> 0:00:10.200 got a big one for you tonight. It'll be bursting 0:00:10.280 --> 0:00:12.600 with debate and great guests tonight. 0:00:13.840 --> 0:00:15.840 Housing and who will be able to afford it. 0:00:15.800 --> 0:00:18.040 Into the future be issue in coming into the election, 0:00:18.120 --> 0:00:19.680 but a bit of false hope being offered by the 0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:20.239 federal government. 0:00:20.280 --> 0:00:20.520 Today. 0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:25.040 I'll explain why another probe decades on is going to 0:00:25.079 --> 0:00:27.320 have a look at everything to do with JFK, and 0:00:27.360 --> 0:00:29.520 one of the people in charge of it says there 0:00:29.600 --> 0:00:33.159 was probably another shooter. And the great Megan Kelly joins 0:00:33.240 --> 0:00:35.199 us from the United States fresh from going to the 0:00:35.200 --> 0:00:38.159 Super Bowl with Donald Trump, and. 0:00:38.200 --> 0:00:39.960 He was in a great mood. He was super happy. 0:00:40.040 --> 0:00:41.720 Even then he was very focused on the fact that 0:00:41.800 --> 0:00:42.600 Taylor got mood. 0:00:44.560 --> 0:00:45.879 Are you happy that you got? 0:00:48.520 --> 0:00:50.640 But first, I am going to start where everyone else 0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:53.199 has apologies for the repetition here, but how can we 0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:56.640 not how can we not talk about the racism and 0:00:56.680 --> 0:00:57.960 the racism of those. 0:00:57.760 --> 0:01:00.000 People that work in the health service. 0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:02.840 Now, I agree with everything that's been said by all 0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:05.199 of my colleagues, so I know you've heard it fourteen times, 0:01:05.200 --> 0:01:06.920 so I'm not going to go over it, but I 0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:10.840 agree with what's been said. This stuff is an absolute disgrace. 0:01:12.280 --> 0:01:14.319 They can say it's a joke, they can say that 0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:18.479 they're sorry, but the reality is that the behavior is 0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:24.600 absolutely appalling. The behavior of the female nurse's family no 0:01:24.800 --> 0:01:27.959 better today when the media came knocking. 0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:29.440 Broke. 0:01:29.600 --> 0:01:33.960 Now, I'm on, you know, what do you have to 0:01:34.120 --> 0:01:41.200 say about the allegation? Tell me, excuse me walking towards 0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:41.840 the faith. 0:01:41.959 --> 0:01:45.880 Mate, mate, mate to me, all right, all right, okay, 0:01:46.040 --> 0:01:46.840 I need my phone back. 0:01:46.959 --> 0:01:47.480 What has happened. 0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:49.320 I don't understand what's happened. I haven't been able to 0:01:49.320 --> 0:01:51.560 talk to us. She's in a freaking extreme panic attack 0:01:51.600 --> 0:01:53.600 at the prison time. I'm trying to calm it down, 0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:56.520 to see what She's been a nurse for God knows 0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:59.800 how long, She's never done anything to hurt anyone. 0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:06.240 Whatever, whatever. What was said on that video is clearly unforgivable, 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:10.040 clearly a new low. But I wanted to take this 0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:13.079 to a bigger conversation, a more dangerous conversation, but one 0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:17.160 that I'm going to have anyway. Why wouldn't these two 0:02:17.240 --> 0:02:19.120 people think that they were going to get away with it? 0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:24.760 When what was the response to people marching on the 0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:30.520 Sydney Opera House, Well, nothing, no arrests. Instead, of course, 0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:33.560 the great effort was not into what was happening, but 0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:38.280 instead what you may or may not have heard police 0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:41.080 openly admitting that they were being overwhelmed with numbers as 0:02:41.120 --> 0:02:44.960 opposed to responding to numbers. We have failed to hold 0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:48.480 to account the people when it comes to stupid protests. 0:02:50.240 --> 0:02:53.160 We have failed to hold to account the people who 0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:57.440 have spoken words of hate. And this is yes, since 0:02:57.600 --> 0:03:02.200 October seven, twenty twenty three, but it's. 0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:03.280 Deeper and it's longer. 0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:09.880 We also failed to hold anyone to serious account when 0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:14.400 they are waving around flags of foreign nations and they 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:17.840 are seemingly more fired up about what's happening somewhere else 0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:19.079 than what should be. 0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:23.200 Social cohesion here. But let's be really clear. 0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:29.440 Australia has a very large, extended hand to anyone from 0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:32.360 anywhere in the world to come and join us. But 0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:37.560 where we have failed, and I mean governments and institutions 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:43.120 and societies, is that we have, out of some sort 0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:50.920 of sensitivity, allowed to breed a sense of entitlement in 0:03:51.000 --> 0:03:53.240 people that they would feel like they can say what 0:03:53.320 --> 0:04:01.160 they said on that video. Now, interestingly and amazingly, not 0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:05.480 a single significant Islamic group in Australia has come out 0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:09.920 to condemn what has been said, to say that a 0:04:10.000 --> 0:04:14.280 patient in a hospital could die or receive adverse care 0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:18.840 that would kill them if they were Jewish, if they 0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:19.640 were Israeli. 0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:23.040 Now we know. 0:04:25.120 --> 0:04:28.840 That the failure to do so only causes bigger problems 0:04:28.880 --> 0:04:34.240 in the community. Now, this is not a moment, and 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:39.880 I will not accept any dog whistle that there needs 0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:42.720 to be some sort of response to this other than 0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:48.880 what happens at the official level. We have made too 0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:53.440 many mistakes for too long, and the greatest sign of 0:04:53.480 --> 0:04:58.760 those mistakes is that the children of people who have 0:04:58.800 --> 0:05:01.960 come to this country, who have extended the peace of 0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:07.599 this nation, are often the loudest ones on the streets 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:11.240 or online saying the dumbest and most evil of things. 0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:16.760 I do not care of what God you believe in 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:17.520 or don't. 0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:21.600 I do not care where your family is from and 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:27.119 what happened in a former life. I do not care 0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:30.839 if you are someone who was born here and seeks 0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:37.359 to play out historic rights and wrongs on the streets 0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:38.080 of this country. 0:05:38.520 --> 0:05:40.440 It is unacceptable. 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:45.880 But the stern words of politicians today are too little, 0:05:46.480 --> 0:05:55.480 too late. How have citizens gone through the daycare system, 0:05:56.000 --> 0:06:00.239 the primary school system, the high school, tafe, university. 0:05:59.760 --> 0:06:01.760 Or our workplaces. 0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:07.440 And come out the end of that process feeling emboldened 0:06:07.480 --> 0:06:08.960 to say what has been said. 0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:11.360 Now? 0:06:11.360 --> 0:06:13.200 I like that the Nisa Whals government has got one 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:15.120 heck of a swagger about it and loves pointing a 0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:17.960 finger and has taken seemingly quick action here. 0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:21.760 But let's not let them off the hook. 0:06:22.800 --> 0:06:27.279 How many of the anti Semitic attacks have taken place 0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:30.920 in New South Wales in the term of this government. 0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:35.320 What have they done to change the education systems? What 0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:42.640 have they done to put pride in this nation at 0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:48.200 front and center of the Australian story. I am sick 0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:53.520 and tired of people pretending that the symptom is what 0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:58.039 needs to be dealt with, not the problem. For those 0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:00.320 that are half paying attention, looking forward to run off 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:03.160 to an umpire somewhere or when this will be inevitably 0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:06.360 taken out of context by people on the internet or 0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:12.080 those who hate this broadcast. I am very happy for 0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:14.280 people to come from anywhere in the world and believe 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:18.720 in whatever they believe in. But but regardless of whether 0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:24.080 your arrival was generations ago or was a couple of 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:30.560 weeks ago, this joint first, and this joint first means 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:35.240 that somebody with a yamaka or a hijab should be 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:39.080 able to walk the same side of the street without disputation. 0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:46.679 I have had enough of it. But the problem is 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:51.960 is that there is no solution that is possible when 0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:57.880 much of the problem is the second generation our fellow Australians. 0:08:00.240 --> 0:08:03.840 Much needs to change, and we have seen that when 0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:09.960 a culture wants to change and change very quickly, it 0:08:10.080 --> 0:08:15.440 decides what is appropriate and not appropriate. Anyone who works 0:08:15.440 --> 0:08:21.320 in any office of any size spends more time on 0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:26.080 training about what to say and not to say at 0:08:26.160 --> 0:08:30.040 work than we do on fire drills, and good because 0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:34.959 it means people learn how to get along. That message 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:38.520 is failing and I want politicians who do not just 0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:41.240 stand up for the twelve hours when everyone is yelling, 0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:43.800 but are committed to it twenty four hours a day 0:08:43.800 --> 0:08:47.760 and seven days a week, that regardless of the makeup 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:53.120 of our community, it is united around one purpose, which 0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:57.720 is one citizen is not more important than another one, 0:08:58.040 --> 0:09:02.000 that all citizens must take care of each other and 0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:05.840 any weakening of that fabric must be dealt with in 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:10.000 the harshest possible terms. But you watch where this goes 0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:13.360 in the next twenty four hours. I guarantee there will 0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:16.400 be discussion amongst many parts of the left wing media 0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:18.720 who will try to focus on not what was said, 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:20.760 but what else was said on the video, What happened 0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:22.480 a minute before, what happened a minute after? 0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:23.600 Where did it come from? 0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:23.679 No. 0:09:23.960 --> 0:09:28.120 No, In the same way that you react to the 0:09:28.240 --> 0:09:31.360 family members who go after the reporters standing on a 0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:37.880 public street asking questions, the same should be about this story. 0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:41.960 I have no doubt that in a week's time there'll 0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:43.600 be a whole bunch of people wanting to go back. 0:09:43.520 --> 0:09:44.120 To their corners. 0:09:44.160 --> 0:09:48.160 But can we use this moment of division to unite, 0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:53.040 to unite about right and wrong and a ram that 0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:57.679 message home to the people who have never learned it, 0:09:57.720 --> 0:10:00.920 to the people who have forgotten it, or of those 0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:04.680 of us who wish to restate it every day. 0:10:07.240 --> 0:10:09.119 Of the wider issue in and around. 0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:11.520 Anti Semitism and how it has got so wildly out 0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:13.280 of control in the past couple of years. You know, 0:10:13.280 --> 0:10:15.480 we've got a forum coming up, not this week, but 0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:18.400 next week here on Sky News. If you have suggestions, 0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:22.080 please write an email to Shari and her team who 0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:24.320 are putting this thing together. It is some at skynews 0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:28.439 dot com. It'll be on the television Thursday, the February 0:10:28.440 --> 0:10:29.400 the twentieth. 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:30.480 Here on Sky News. 0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:34.400 All right, back to the politics of what we need 0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:39.920 to talk about today. Jim Chalmers, Anthony Abernezi desperately trying 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:42.520 to pull together the next budget if it is to 0:10:42.520 --> 0:10:45.280 be delivered before the election, but certainly looking at forty 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:50.040 forty budget deficits in a row for the next couple 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:55.040 of generations. They know that they're promised to make everything better, 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:59.320 which made everything worse has failed. And they know that 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:01.720 there are a young voters in particular who are starting 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:05.120 to drift towards the Greens and will send their preferences 0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:07.079 to Labor as opposed to the other way around. You see, 0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:09.120 Labor loves the idea of the Greens being able to 0:11:09.160 --> 0:11:12.719 hoover up the preferences of the ride on crowd. It's 0:11:12.760 --> 0:11:14.200 just they can get no more votes in the Labor 0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:16.840 Party because then the Labor Party becomes the preference siphon 0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:20.000 for the Greens. Well, you may will have heard today 0:11:20.520 --> 0:11:23.720 about Jim Charmers running around and playing to headlines like 0:11:23.720 --> 0:11:25.920 this that Jim Charmers is going to make it easier 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:29.400 for people to buy a home, particularly as a way 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:31.240 of winning over young voters to make sure they vote 0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:32.320 Labor not Green. 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:34.360 Now. 0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:37.920 I have said it many times before and well before 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:39.840 this election year, that there are people that are willing 0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:41.960 to vote for parties they have never voted before if 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:45.000 they think that they are going to create a better 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:47.400 scenario so their kids and grandkids can buy a house. 0:11:48.320 --> 0:11:51.000 But as always, the devil is in the detail, and 0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:52.640 I don't think there's going to be that many people 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:55.360 that will be advantaged by the new changes which have 0:11:55.400 --> 0:11:59.160 been announced today. Explained here by an supporter from Channel nine. 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:04.760 Australia's financial regulators OPRAH and ASSEK have both agreed to 0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:08.199 adjust the rules that means banks will no longer need 0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:12.400 to consider university debt repayments if they believe the potential 0:12:12.440 --> 0:12:16.520 buyer can pay it off. According to mortgage broker Pure Finance, 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:20.080 if you're earning one hundred thousand dollars, you can borrow 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:23.200 up to six hundred and eight thousand, But if you 0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:25.880 have a student debt, you'd be paying off at least 0:12:25.880 --> 0:12:29.679 five five hundred dollars a year, and that reduces your 0:12:29.679 --> 0:12:32.680 borrowing power by nearly seventy thousand dollars. 0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:39.120 Now important to note there the one hundred thousand dollars 0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:43.320 earning university student. Now, it is going to take a 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:46.000 very long time for most people who leave university to 0:12:46.000 --> 0:12:49.560 actually start earning one hundred thousand dollars. So think of, 0:12:49.640 --> 0:12:52.920 firstly the total number of people with university debt in Australia. 0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:57.120 Small number, not insigniving, but a small number. Then think 0:12:57.120 --> 0:12:59.160 about the number who'll be earning one hundred thousand dollars 0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:03.480 even smaller. Then think about the people who, after earning 0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:05.680 between fifty and one hundred thousand dollars, maybill have already 0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:09.280 paid off their hexstead. It's an even smaller slice, but 0:13:09.320 --> 0:13:13.559 it's a big enough slice for the banking organizations to say, Okay, 0:13:13.559 --> 0:13:15.679 you're the government, it's not really that much money, it's 0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:17.800 not many that many customers, so we'll go along. 0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:18.040 With you here. 0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:22.480 But let's actually have a look at the reality of 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:26.520 the property market in Australia when it comes to the 0:13:26.559 --> 0:13:29.760 houses that are available right now. Data available towards the 0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:32.600 end of last year that has not been updated tells 0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:35.480 us that the median house price for the person who 0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:37.880 would get a six hundred and eight thousand dollars loan 0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:42.280 for their one hundred thousand dollars, or if they are 0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:44.720 still being charged the hex stuff five hundred and thirty 0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:47.959 eight thousand dollars, Well, it wouldn't touch the size you 0:13:48.000 --> 0:13:51.600 can buy a house even a third of one in Sydney, 0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:54.600 half of one in Melbourne, or a little over half 0:13:54.600 --> 0:13:57.800 of one in Brisbane. A little better in other capitals. 0:13:57.800 --> 0:14:00.520 But these are the three main places of population. What 0:14:00.559 --> 0:14:03.080 about a unit? They wouldn't be able to afford one 0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:05.320 in Sydney, they might be able to squeeze one out 0:14:05.320 --> 0:14:07.720 in Melbourne, and it'll be very. 0:14:07.600 --> 0:14:08.800 Lineball in bruce Ban. 0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:14.080 So exactly how many people are we talking about here 0:14:14.480 --> 0:14:16.520 who are going to be earning one hundred thousand dollars 0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:19.680 and how much will they be able to maximum be 0:14:19.840 --> 0:14:22.120 able to borrow? And how does that match up with 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:23.560 the numbers that I've just shown you. 0:14:25.360 --> 0:14:28.920 Banks will no longer need to consider university debt repayments 0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:32.480 if they believe the potential buyer can pay it off. 0:14:33.240 --> 0:14:36.800 Four fifths Bugger all Now, yes, anything that moves the 0:14:36.840 --> 0:14:40.040 ball one inch further down the field is a win. 0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:42.160 But let's not pretend that this is the solution to 0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:44.800 the problem. It is a government trying to say it 0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:46.680 has a solution to the problem. 0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:48.120 Oh yeah. 0:14:48.160 --> 0:14:51.080 And as for the rest of the almost half of 0:14:51.080 --> 0:14:52.880 the country that is trying to pay a house off 0:14:52.880 --> 0:14:54.400 that either they live in or it is an investment 0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:58.600 property with a mortgage, we learn today about home loan 0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:03.200 sizes that have now hidden new records in Australia. The 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:05.480 average homeland in Australia is now six hundred and sixty 0:15:05.520 --> 0:15:09.680 six thousand dollars in New South Whilst it's eight hundred 0:15:09.680 --> 0:15:12.720 and eleven thousand dollars, and Victoria six hundred and thirty 0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:16.560 two thousand dollars and in Queensland six hundred and thirty 0:15:16.600 --> 0:15:18.160 five thousand dollars. 0:15:19.480 --> 0:15:21.800 Which brings me back to what way too. 0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:24.800 Many people in an OsO compliant press gallery think is 0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:27.120 going to be the get out of jail free card 0:15:27.360 --> 0:15:30.960 for Jim Charmers and Anthony Albanesi, which would be fingers 0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:34.720 crossed a hopeful drop in interest rates, hopefully one next 0:15:34.720 --> 0:15:38.840 week and potentially won during the federal election campaign, But 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:42.600 with the average home loan in the country being six 0:15:42.680 --> 0:15:46.000 hundred and sixty six thousand dollars or new so whilst 0:15:46.000 --> 0:15:49.360 eight hundred and eleven thousand dollars, the actual truth of 0:15:49.480 --> 0:15:52.800 how much more you have had to find to pay 0:15:52.840 --> 0:15:57.760 off your mortgage since these people became the government is 0:15:57.880 --> 0:16:02.640 as follows. An extra fifteen one thousand dollars if you 0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:07.480 borrowed four hundred thousand dollars, twenty two thousand dollars if 0:16:07.520 --> 0:16:12.840 you borrowed six hundred thousand dollars, twenty nine thousand dollars 0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:18.240 if you borrowed for the average joint and the average 0:16:18.280 --> 0:16:22.720 mortgage in New South Wales even higher. If you're going 0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:25.480 a million dollar loan under this government, on top of 0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:29.160 what you were already paying, you've had to find thirty 0:16:29.360 --> 0:16:32.880 seven and a half thousand dollars more. 0:16:32.920 --> 0:16:33.960 To pay off your loan. 0:16:34.600 --> 0:16:36.880 And if you've got a very big loan, because presumably 0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:39.200 you've got big money coming in, you've had even bigger 0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:44.080 money going out, somewhere between fourteen and forty four thousand 0:16:44.080 --> 0:16:47.680 dollars extra. And yes, if there is an interesstrate rise, 0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:50.280 there may well be a grand one hundred and fifty 0:16:50.400 --> 0:16:55.800 dollars reduction in your monthly repayments if anyone thinks that 0:16:55.840 --> 0:17:00.720 the Australian people will just forgive and forget a government 0:17:01.080 --> 0:17:08.280 that has presided over those numbers times two years, because 0:17:08.320 --> 0:17:11.600 that's how long it's been back of course into the 0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:14.399 latter part of twenty twenty two, the early part of 0:17:14.400 --> 0:17:18.120 twenty twenty three, when rates hit their high point. So 0:17:18.240 --> 0:17:21.080 all of those numbers I just showed you double them, 0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:24.080 And that's how much extra since this mob came to power. 0:17:24.160 --> 0:17:27.600 Good luck, good luck telling everyone that we've turned the 0:17:27.640 --> 0:17:30.880 corner and everything's okay. They have already had to spend, 0:17:31.760 --> 0:17:35.720 for some people close to half or maybe even more 0:17:35.720 --> 0:17:38.439 of a year's wages to try to desperately keep a 0:17:38.520 --> 0:17:41.800 roof over their head because fingers crossed, eventually the joint 0:17:41.840 --> 0:17:43.320 will be worth more than what they paid for it. 0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:46.040 They pay property coplunk and what's left over that pays 0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:46.919 for their retirement. 0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:47.720 Place. 0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:53.159 Big deal in the Federal Parliament that I want to 0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:57.200 talk about here, which is, as you know, the House 0:17:57.240 --> 0:18:00.600 of Reps and the Senate dominated by the two parties, 0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:03.879 and they love to get together to always help out themselves. 0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:07.000 Of course, it's a completely independent tribunal that regardless of 0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:10.320 whether you are labor liberal, one Nation green or even 0:18:10.400 --> 0:18:14.000 Lydia Thorpe or a Tiffany Teal, you have got not one, 0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:18.639 but three pay rises since the last election. As I 0:18:18.680 --> 0:18:23.240 showed you, federal government ministers earning four hundred thousand dollars 0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:27.120 sneering at the idea of a small business being able 0:18:27.160 --> 0:18:30.640 to use the same tax breaks the big business does 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:33.879 to take a client to the pub for a schnitzel. 0:18:34.840 --> 0:18:37.639 These are the people who always fly at the front 0:18:37.680 --> 0:18:41.720 of the plane whenever they wish floating fares. That means 0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:43.760 they can cancel and just get another one a little 0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:47.240 bit later. The people with staff who film them. And 0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:48.800 I don't know about you, but I'm sick of the 0:18:48.840 --> 0:18:52.400 politicians who try to create themselves like some of social 0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:56.080 media influences. Well, under this government they've got an extra staffer, 0:18:56.400 --> 0:19:03.080 an extra staffer to help burnish they're online reputations. 0:19:04.560 --> 0:19:05.639 Well, a deal has been. 0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:11.280 Done about how elections will be paid for the detail 0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:13.439 I have been speaking about for some time, and I 0:19:13.600 --> 0:19:15.200 can't stand when they. 0:19:15.080 --> 0:19:15.760 Do this stuff. 0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:19.160 But they do it because it's self serving. You will 0:19:19.200 --> 0:19:23.520 be able to give not twenty, but fifty thousand dollars. 0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:27.359 You will be able to give under five thousand dollars 0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:30.440 before anyone knows that you have been giving a particular 0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:31.760 candidate money. 0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:34.720 All of that unbelievable. 0:19:35.640 --> 0:19:38.199 There will be a spending limit per electorate of eight 0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:42.679 hundred thousand dollars. Ninety million dollars is the most that 0:19:42.720 --> 0:19:46.440 can be spent by a political entity during an election campaign. 0:19:47.280 --> 0:19:51.919 But don't forget there are the independent organizations who also 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:54.760 are able to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on 0:19:54.800 --> 0:19:57.960 top of the political parties that they work with. So literally, 0:19:58.080 --> 0:20:00.600 the dozens and dozens of unions will also be able 0:20:00.600 --> 0:20:03.320 to spend hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars, whereas 0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:06.520 the Liberal Party, the Greens, One Nation, or your community 0:20:06.520 --> 0:20:10.320 independent will be outspent what four, five, six, ten to one. 0:20:11.480 --> 0:20:16.240 But nothing to see here. But the true outrage is 0:20:16.280 --> 0:20:20.240 the money that they will get from us, the taxpayer, 0:20:21.359 --> 0:20:24.520 as a result of the electoral process. Now, in this 0:20:24.600 --> 0:20:27.919 country we have compulsory voting. You are fined if you 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:31.800 do not get your name marked off the role. And yes, 0:20:31.880 --> 0:20:34.880 there is a very very very small number of people 0:20:34.880 --> 0:20:36.960 who will get their name marked off but not vote. 0:20:37.040 --> 0:20:42.800 But let's be honest, you turn up your vote. Previously, 0:20:44.200 --> 0:20:47.520 political candidates have been paid three dollars thirty five per 0:20:47.680 --> 0:20:51.120 vote that they receive. That is now about to increase 0:20:51.119 --> 0:20:54.399 to five dollars. Paul, Why blow your bonnet about what 0:20:54.600 --> 0:20:59.040 a dollar in a bit? Because when you think about 0:20:59.040 --> 0:21:01.480 how many people are enrolled to vote in Australia, which 0:21:01.520 --> 0:21:05.680 is seventeen million, nine hundred and thirty nine thousand, eight 0:21:05.760 --> 0:21:10.480 hundred and eighteen people. That's when you think about how 0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:14.240 many people are on the electoral role. Guess what happens 0:21:14.680 --> 0:21:17.760 if every one of those people vote in a lower 0:21:17.800 --> 0:21:21.520 House election. It means the Australian taxpayer will be paying 0:21:22.080 --> 0:21:27.359 political parties, independence and well minor parties thirty nine point 0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:34.800 six million dollars, meaning we pay for their election campaigns 0:21:34.920 --> 0:21:38.199 and then they find us if we choose to vote 0:21:38.600 --> 0:21:42.359 or not. But don't forget we don't just have one 0:21:42.400 --> 0:21:45.639 house of Parliament and this is where the five dollars 0:21:45.680 --> 0:21:51.159 a vote really kicks in. Seventeen point nine million people 0:21:51.240 --> 0:21:57.399 on the electoral role, House and Senate votes together seventy 0:21:57.600 --> 0:22:05.760 nine point three million dollars. So the rules about truth 0:22:05.760 --> 0:22:08.879 and advertising they apply to the private sector, not to 0:22:08.960 --> 0:22:14.960 these people. We pay for their travel, their wage, their staff, 0:22:15.320 --> 0:22:19.680 their social media campaigns. They get three three pay rises 0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:24.199 under this mob. They get free tickets, they get free upgrades, 0:22:24.240 --> 0:22:27.960 all the rest of it. And then we the taxpayer, 0:22:28.040 --> 0:22:31.320 through the AEC, hands that much money back to the 0:22:31.320 --> 0:22:35.920 political parties, meaning of course that they will seek fewer donations, 0:22:36.480 --> 0:22:39.080 meaning that just like in Victoria where this system was 0:22:39.119 --> 0:22:43.600 put in place, Queensland and Western Australia, it'll mean virtually 0:22:43.720 --> 0:22:47.240 no relationship with business. Meaning just as we have seen 0:22:47.320 --> 0:22:50.320 in the state of Victoria, you'll have more and more parties, 0:22:50.480 --> 0:22:55.600 more and more governments that won't care about business. And remember, 0:22:55.720 --> 0:22:58.480 ninety seven percent of all business in Australia is small, 0:22:59.320 --> 0:23:03.040 with fewer than nineteen employees. Of that ninety seven percent, 0:23:03.119 --> 0:23:08.679 almost seventy percent are sole traders who represent them in 0:23:08.760 --> 0:23:13.080 forthcoming elections. What I hate about our lurch to the 0:23:13.160 --> 0:23:16.600 left and those that have cheered it on, is the 0:23:16.600 --> 0:23:19.840 way that government is able to try to create a 0:23:19.920 --> 0:23:24.080 permanent majority for itself is that they want a triangle 0:23:24.240 --> 0:23:29.639 of dependence where either you need the government for the 0:23:29.680 --> 0:23:32.680 welfare handout, and any suggestion that that could be taken 0:23:32.720 --> 0:23:35.160 away is a reason to keep voting for the same 0:23:35.200 --> 0:23:39.520 party of government. Or they hire a football stadium more 0:23:39.560 --> 0:23:43.280 of public servants, which is a reason to keep voting 0:23:43.560 --> 0:23:47.680 for the same government. Or even if you're in private business, 0:23:47.720 --> 0:23:50.280 your biggest client is the government and you don't want 0:23:50.320 --> 0:23:53.560 to piss them off. Meaning that those of us who 0:23:53.560 --> 0:23:58.520
