WEBVTT - The Rita Panahi Show | 10 March 0:00:02.840 --> 0:00:04.519 On sky leaves Australia. 0:00:05.200 --> 0:00:10.200 This is the Wider Panalty Show. Good evening and welcome 0:00:10.240 --> 0:00:13.600 to the Riata Pattey Show. Coming up tonight, worrying data 0:00:13.760 --> 0:00:16.880 showing more than three in four jobs created in Australia 0:00:16.960 --> 0:00:21.200 last year were underwritten by taxpayers. Adam Crichton will be 0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:24.520 here to discuss that and the day's top headlines. The 0:00:24.640 --> 0:00:27.960 Green sees the balance of power in the WA Upper 0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:31.240 House Professa Ian Plimer and what that will mean for 0:00:31.600 --> 0:00:35.360 WA's resource sector. The Great Josh Hammer will have the 0:00:35.440 --> 0:00:39.120 latest from the US, Europe and Syria where Islamus are 0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:44.520 slaughtering religious minorities, including Christians, and later in the hour, 0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:48.800 Kinsey Schofield will tell us what famous celebrity has fled 0:00:48.920 --> 0:00:54.080 Trump's America for New Zealand and we never ever forget 0:00:54.280 --> 0:01:01.880 Left is losing it. Goodnight at first, The latest News 0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:06.000 poll is out and the Coalition is failing to gain ground, 0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:09.360 with fifty five percent of voters saying they don't believe 0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:13.240 the Coalition is ready to govern and Opposition leader Bitter 0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:17.240 Dutton's personal approval rating has dropped while the Prime Minister 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:21.240 has increased his lead. He's gone from five points to 0:01:21.319 --> 0:01:24.679 a nine point lead in just the past month, and 0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:29.000 we can't look overlook Labor having its own issues. They 0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:33.000 continue to trail the coalition fifty one to forty nine 0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:37.720 percent two party preferred. Labour's primary vote is on thirty 0:01:37.840 --> 0:01:41.240 two percent, trailing the coalition on thirty nine. Let's bring 0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:44.640 in senior fellow and chief economist at the Institute of 0:01:44.640 --> 0:01:47.880 Public Affairs, Adam Crichton. Adam, what do you make of 0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:53.600 this starter? It's not particularly great news for either side, 0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:56.560 but I think the Prime Minister will be happy at 0:01:56.560 --> 0:01:58.520 has increased his lead over the opposition leader. 0:01:58.920 --> 0:01:59.720 Yes, that's true. 0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:01.520 Look at six weeks or so that I've been back 0:02:01.520 --> 0:02:03.680 in Australia, obviously I've been hobby watching politics. I have 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:05.920 noticed that over that six weeks I would say that 0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:10.000 Dutton's chances have been marginally declining, and also in that 0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:13.040 space he's been more and more like the Labor Party. So, 0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:15.360 for instance, Labor proposed the eight and a half billion 0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:18.440 dollars on Medicare and then straightaway Dutton backed it. So 0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:20.480 all that good stuff, at least from my point of view, 0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:22.160 from last year that we saw on the nuclear energy 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:25.600 and so forth. That's I think when the opposition leader 0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:28.760 was doing much better, but now his chances of declining. 0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:31.239 So yeah, I do wonder about some of the advice 0:02:31.480 --> 0:02:35.840 he's receiving. It took the Liberal Party ten months to 0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:38.919 pose the voice, which they should have done in approximately 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:41.840 ten minutes because it was on the face of a 0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:45.200 bad policy. Didn't need to see further detail. But when 0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:49.400 he did oppose it, and he articulated that position so well, 0:02:49.480 --> 0:02:53.040 so strongly, I think that really is what made him 0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:56.239 seem like a future leader of the country, and he 0:02:56.360 --> 0:02:58.640 stepped back from that a little bit. Yeah, certainly, that's right. 0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:00.840 And then I think I saw last week Financial Review 0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:03.360 that the tials of all people are proposing to index 0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:05.600 the tax scales, like that is something the Liberal Party 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:08.079 should be proposing, you would think from first principles, right, 0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:10.520 because the fact is at the moment they are not indexed, 0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:12.799 and so it is an annual tax increase year after year. 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:15.440 So you know, well done teals for that, But that's 0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:16.880 something that should be coming from the coalition. 0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:21.280 Well, absolutely. And on a bunch of other issues where 0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:23.560 I think they're on very solid ground, a lot of 0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:27.680 these so called cultural issues. Again, there's a reluctance to 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:31.280 lean into those fights, despite the fact that you would 0:03:31.280 --> 0:03:33.960 have the majority of labor voters with you, never mind 0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:38.400 conservative voters. But let's look at data that is far 0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:41.520 more disturbing than any news poll. The Australian Financial Review 0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:45.040 reports more than three quarters of new jobs created in 0:03:45.080 --> 0:03:49.480 twenty twenty four were in government funded industries, talking things 0:03:49.560 --> 0:03:53.480 like education, health. Now, about one third of the four 0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:56.520 hundred and eighty seven thousand jobs created last year were 0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:59.360 in the public sector, but more than three quarters of 0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:04.840 all jobs were underwritten essentially by the government. Adam, that's 0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:08.920 not great news, and not surprisingly, guess what productivity has 0:04:09.080 --> 0:04:10.040 also pummitted? 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:12.800 Yeah, certainly the productivity in these so called non market 0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:16.960 sectors has historically and still is been very low. Basically, 0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:19.240 you know, the fact that more than three quarters in 0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:21.840 the public sector is very very concerning for Australia's future 0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:25.599 prospects because obviously all these workers are financed from tax revenue, 0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:28.440 and of course tax revenue slows economic growth. It's actually 0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:30.680 worth pointing out that on the IPA's own research, it's 0:04:30.680 --> 0:04:32.760 actually worse than three quarters. It's more than eighty two 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:36.600 percent of jobs since August twenty twenty two have actually 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:40.479 have actually come from the public sector, so two. 0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:42.360 And a half years, so not just the past year. 0:04:42.560 --> 0:04:44.760 Was so the growth extraordinary because overall, if you look 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:47.440 at all of the jobs in the economy, some I 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:50.080 think eighteen percent are in the non market sector, and 0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:53.560 yet that relatively small, small sector has accounted for more 0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:55.080 than eighty percent of the new jobs. 0:04:55.200 --> 0:04:55.680 Very worrying. 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:59.279 I wonder what percentage the NDIS and all the related 0:04:59.279 --> 0:05:02.400 industries are possible for, because that just seems to be, well, 0:05:02.400 --> 0:05:04.160 we reletely unsustainable. 0:05:04.279 --> 0:05:06.480 We certainly saw Bill Shorton, I think he said that 0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:09.839 five hundred thousand people were employed because of the NDOTS. 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.680 Now they are probably classified as private sector workers on 0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:14.960 some measures, right, but of course in reality they are 0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:16.960 really public sector workers, and they are a drain on 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:20.400 the productivity of the economy, it must be said. 0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:25.039 Oh absolutely. And I think it's like immigration, where you 0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:29.200 can bring in an influx of people and really gain 0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:31.279 the data and make it look like you've had a 0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:34.320 big growth in GDP and everything's going well, we're having 0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:37.279 economic prosperity and growth, but when you look at the 0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:40.800 per capita data, it doesn't look so flash And this 0:05:40.880 --> 0:05:42.520 seems to be a little bit of that. Yeah, the 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:46.360 job numbers look great, Unemployment is at a low level. 0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:49.840 But if the taxpayer is underwriting all this, and. 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:51.440 Look they certainly are. I mean, you know, we've had 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:53.400 over the past three or four years the biggest increase 0:05:53.440 --> 0:05:56.080 in income tax in real terms pretty much in thirty 0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:58.279 or forty years in Australia. And yet, and yet both 0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:00.600 sides of politics go on about so called tax cuts, 0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:03.679 the Stage three tax cuts. Well, look, inflation was far worse, 0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:06.200 and so because those brackets aren't index, people have actually 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:08.200 had a big increase in tax and all of that 0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:10.200 extra money has been spent on these sorts of public 0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:12.599 sector jobs. It's very worrying both sides are not really 0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:15.400 putting forward good solutions for Australia's future. 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:19.000 Now, the WA election was over the week ken the 0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:23.880 Liberals performed terribly. The government has been returned their Labor 0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:28.159 government with a massive majority. I'll be talking to Professor 0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:31.320 Implymer about that a little bit later. But is this 0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:35.120 good news for Anthony Alberanezi or I've heard some political 0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:41.280 experts say it's actually bad news because whatever grievances West 0:06:41.320 --> 0:06:43.800 Australians have they'll take it out on him rather than 0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:44.680 this tack company. 0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:45.960 But it's hard to I mean, it's hard to know. 0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:48.040 Western Australia is so far away. I'm not an ex 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:51.440 it's almost like a country to itself. But that said, look, 0:06:51.480 --> 0:06:54.080 I think overall probably bad for the Coalition because they 0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:56.720 were expected to pick up more than five or six 0:06:56.760 --> 0:06:58.680 seats and I think that's all they're going to end 0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:02.280 up with in the Parliament. Badly. They've got a kind 0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:04.320 of reflex Victoria State Pole. Right, there was a big 0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:06.520 swing away from Labor, but it didn't really go to 0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:10.000 the Liberals very much, you know, it kind of went 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:11.760 to Teals. In fact, I think the Teals are going 0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:13.600 to win a seat in the West Australian Parliament for 0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:17.320 the first time aus a Teal type candidate. Look, I 0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:19.480 don't think it's great for the Coalition, but that said, 0:07:19.480 --> 0:07:20.760 as you point out, I mean it can go the 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:23.160 other way too. You have to speak to some cychologists 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:23.360 on that. 0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:26.720 I guess we'll find that in a month or two. 0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:29.800 It's not too far away. Let's talk about something a 0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:34.080 little bit different. Veteran comedian David Hughes he was forced 0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:38.000 to remove a group of women from his show at 0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:42.320 the Adelaide Fringe Festival because well, they kept chattering away. 0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:48.160 They kept just disrupting the show, annoying people sitting around them. 0:07:48.600 --> 0:07:51.200 Let's have a look at the footage and you can 0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:53.800 see Hughesy gets pretty angry. He gives him a couple 0:07:53.840 --> 0:08:14.880 of warnings and then he loses it. Adam house Since said, 0:08:15.000 --> 0:08:18.280 I gave the group of women multiple chances that were 0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:23.520 infuriating audience members near them and me and as they 0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:26.720 were in the second row. So yeah, there was definitely 0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:30.400 annoying hughes And I would say there's nothing worse than 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:32.760 if you're watching a comedy show or any sort of 0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:37.640 live performance and you've got people chattering away. It's a distraction. 0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:41.320 It takes away from the experience and you might remember. 0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:43.480 I don't know if this made the news in Americay 0:08:43.480 --> 0:08:45.880 it probably did because it made headlines around the world. 0:08:45.880 --> 0:08:49.400 But a comic Arch Barker last year bou to day 0:08:49.559 --> 0:08:53.240 breastfeeding mum from his program because the baby was making 0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:57.200 all sorts of noise. He got absolutely slammed for it. 0:08:57.280 --> 0:08:59.040 But I've got to say I'm with the comics on 0:08:59.080 --> 0:09:02.920 this one. That mum and baby went on the project 0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:06.679 to you know, to protest what had happened, and even 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:11.760 for during a TV interview, the baby's making little noises. 0:09:11.840 --> 0:09:16.560 As cute as it may be, it's actually very disruptive. Yeah. 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:19.240 Look, certainly I'm with both of these comedians on this. 0:09:19.360 --> 0:09:22.040 I think the bigger threat though, for comedians generally in 0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:24.960 Australia was always impositions on free speech. These new laws 0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:27.400 that are being passed by state parliaments, especially in Victoria 0:09:27.400 --> 0:09:29.240 and New South Wales where it is now illegal I 0:09:29.280 --> 0:09:33.280 understand to severely ridicule a group quote unquote severely ridicule. 0:09:33.640 --> 0:09:36.319 So no, stand up's going to get very very hard. 0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:38.839 So maybe these women did not find him very funny, 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:40.760 but even so they were being very rude and they 0:09:40.800 --> 0:09:41.360 should have been. 0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:41.679 Us to live. 0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:44.640 Oh absolutely, if you're sitting in the second role, really 0:09:44.679 --> 0:09:47.440 anywhere where there's people around you, you've just got to 0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:51.560 shush it, unless there's audience participation called for Adam Krisch, 0:09:51.600 --> 0:09:52.920 I thought we were going to fight about that one. 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:54.839 I thought you were going to take the lady's side, 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:58.760 But here we are. Sorry about the unity ticket behind Husy. 0:09:59.040 --> 0:10:02.400 Thanks for your time to joining me. Now is a 0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:07.079 esteem geologist and author, Professor Ian Plimer, and I wanted 0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:10.160 to start by getting your thoughts on the WA election. 0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:14.960 You know the state very well. They contribute greatly to Australia. 0:10:16.120 --> 0:10:20.959 WA is a mining state, it's a resources stronghold. They 0:10:21.000 --> 0:10:24.000 seem to be very much conservative in their values. We 0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:27.800 certainly saw that with the race based Voice referendum last year. 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:31.600 Sixty three and a half percent voted no. But then 0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:37.320 we have state labor winning election after election with massive landslides. 0:10:37.440 --> 0:10:41.760 Why is that, Well, it is a resource state. They 0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:44.760 use a huge amount of energy. Most of their energy 0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:48.480 comes from gas, some comes from diesel gen sets that 0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:53.760 remote minds and some are soul. West Australia would not 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:57.400 be as prosperous as they are without the royalties of 0:10:57.600 --> 0:11:02.839 mining and the labor govern in Western Australia over the 0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:09.120 last couple of terms has been fairly care about destroying 0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:13.400 the mining industry with high royalties. Our Greens of course, 0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:16.360 want to completely destroy the mining industry, the gas industry 0:11:16.360 --> 0:11:19.240 and any other industry. I want people living in caves 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:21.760 and sniffing. 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:22.280 Plants to live. 0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:26.520 So in Western Australia we have a very very different 0:11:26.520 --> 0:11:27.400 situation from. 0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:28.280 In Eastern Australia. 0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:32.280 Western Australia has little manufacturing, it has mining. 0:11:32.520 --> 0:11:37.160 And the Liberals just didn't dent the electric The Liberals 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:42.040 should have fought much harder on matters of resources, matters 0:11:42.040 --> 0:11:43.600 of aboriginal. 0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:50.160 Matters, closing down minds. They didn't. And it's very little 0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:51.360 different from Victoria. 0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:55.240 Victoria has drove a pathetically weak biberal party, as does 0:11:55.280 --> 0:11:56.199 Western Australia. 0:11:58.679 --> 0:12:01.440 Well, those Aboriginal herits laws. And we only had in 0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:06.640 the last two weeks a farmer who's been fined for 0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:10.920 building a little bridge on his own land because it 0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:13.800 may have disturbed I think it was a rainbow serpent 0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:19.880 if I remember correctly. So that issue is enormous there potentially, 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:22.679 and the Libstins seem to really lean into it much. 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:28.800 You mentioned WA Labour's relatively same position on mining and 0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:32.360 climate policies. That may all be under threahy in because 0:12:32.400 --> 0:12:35.280 the Greens are set to seize power the balance of 0:12:35.320 --> 0:12:38.480 power in the Upper House and prior to the election 0:12:38.880 --> 0:12:43.439 they made it clear they'll leverage this to push for 0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:47.440 a Climate Change Act with all sorts of hard left 0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:52.239 green policies. What impact could this have on Western Australia 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:53.760 in well. 0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:54.960 This will have a magic impact. 0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:59.839 I think any green labor deal ends up putting people 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:04.360 to work in topic heavy industry like the resources industry, 0:13:04.920 --> 0:13:08.320 and it ends up being a really massive backward step. 0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:11.679 So this is the time when Labor should be talking 0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:15.360 to the Liberals about how they can manage a state 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:19.520 which relies on resources and doesn't rely on the Greens. 0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:22.440 The Greens have produced nothing. All they do is put 0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:25.880 people out of work. So this is a perfect opportunity 0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:30.120 for the Nationals to live and Labor to talk together. 0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:33.160 In the Upper House and try to get some common sense. 0:13:33.440 --> 0:13:36.400 Because if the Greens have the balance of power, then 0:13:36.520 --> 0:13:39.280 Western Australia is going to lose a huge amount of revenue. 0:13:39.679 --> 0:13:42.960 This revenue goes to schools and the police and roads, 0:13:42.960 --> 0:13:43.440 et cetera. 0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:45.920 You can see the results of that revenue. 0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:49.800 Western Australia's got some wonderful new roads over very long distances. 0:13:50.200 --> 0:13:54.559 The infrastructure is fabulous and that is because of mining royalties. 0:13:54.880 --> 0:13:57.040 This is what the Greens will kill off. And so 0:13:57.200 --> 0:14:00.840 I think the Labor government has to be very circumspect 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:04.160 about talking to the Greens at all and maybe compromise 0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:06.439 and do a deal with the Libs and the Nats. 0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:15.400 Imagine that labor coalition coalition in the WA Upper House 0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:20.320 to sidestep the Greens. It's definitely what's best for the state. 0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:23.560 Whether it's going to happen or not, we'll see. Now. 0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:28.120 Donald Trump's top economic advisor, Kevin Hassett, who is the 0:14:28.240 --> 0:14:32.440 chair of the White House National Economic Council, his flag 0:14:32.560 --> 0:14:37.200 that an Australian exemption from Donald Trump's metal tariffs is 0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:42.440 highly unlikely. And I do wonder if President Donald Trump 0:14:42.720 --> 0:14:47.120 heard about the output of the WA premiere I have 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:50.520 a listen to this little bit of reckless idiocy. 0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:54.080 Jd Vance is a knob. 0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:04.920 Sorry, you've got to have one unprofessional moment, Danja. 0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:05.400 That was it. 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:09.760 Does Donald Trump still represent a dark road for the world. 0:15:10.120 --> 0:15:12.560 Well, I certainly think he represents an uncertain one. 0:15:12.640 --> 0:15:15.040 So again, let me just say, at times. 0:15:14.800 --> 0:15:18.160 Of uncertainty, you need a steady hand experience had at 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:18.520 the wheel. 0:15:18.960 --> 0:15:24.120 And what a reckless bit of stupidity from Premier Roger 0:15:24.160 --> 0:15:24.680 Cook there. 0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:28.520 Well, Premier Cook should be concerned about Western Australia and 0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:31.560 that is it. It's not his place to talk about 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:36.240 anything international. And I think what he's done is destroy 0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:41.040 relationships between the Commonwealth of Australia and the USA. And 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:45.360 that was an absolutely dopey comment to make in front 0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:48.440 of a labor audience to get a cheap laugh. Now, 0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:54.080 Western Australia depends upon the Commonwealth for this country to function, 0:15:54.720 --> 0:15:58.080 and what he is doing is giving even more reason 0:15:58.200 --> 0:16:00.400 for the US to say it, well, we're not going 0:16:00.440 --> 0:16:03.000 to take your steel, We're not going to take you aluminium. 0:16:03.120 --> 0:16:04.320 And we have to remember that. 0:16:04.280 --> 0:16:07.160 There's a lot of energy that's embedded in aluminium more 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:09.680 than any other metal. Zinc is the next one in 0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:11.960 the line, and steel is further down the track. So 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:16.880 our energy systems are so chaotic and have been destroyed 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:20.120 so much that we actually subsidize the massive amount of 0:16:20.200 --> 0:16:24.080 energy that goes into making steel and making aluminium. So 0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:27.920 as a result of our bad energy policies, we have 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:31.120 the USA saying, well, wait a minute, your aluminum and 0:16:31.400 --> 0:16:35.840 steel are subsidized. We don't want to compete with people 0:16:35.840 --> 0:16:38.720 who subsidize their commodities. 0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:39.200 That they export to US. 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:43.040 They go away, And I think President Trump has many 0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:46.960 reasons to tell Australia to go and take a big jump. 0:16:48.720 --> 0:16:51.720 I think the Well and Roger Cork's just give it 0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:52.760 him another one. 0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:57.040 Well he has, and that joins Ambassador rud that joins 0:16:57.320 --> 0:17:00.480 Minister Penny Wong, that joins the Prime Minister. He has 0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:05.480 all the reasons in the world, so go away. 0:17:06.200 --> 0:17:09.520 Well this is the problem. We need them more than 0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:12.199 they need us. That's just the way it is. So 0:17:13.160 --> 0:17:15.159 I don't know. I don't think it's too difficult as 0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:17.720 a state premier just to be diplomatic and not say 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:22.680 something that's stupid on camera. Goodness, mate, Professor I Plymer, 0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:24.439 thank you so much for your time tonight. 0:17:25.640 --> 0:17:25.960 Thank you. 0:17:26.440 --> 0:17:30.639 Still to come Lefties Losing It plus the Great Josh Hammer, 0:17:30.720 --> 0:17:34.080 we'll have the latest from the US, Europe and Syria 0:17:34.119 --> 0:17:47.720 where Islamists are slaughtering religious minorities, including Christians. You're watching 0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:51.439 the Reader Panny Show, and it's time for lefties losing it. 0:17:51.560 --> 0:17:55.520 Let's start with a reality show. It's called Love is Blind, 0:17:55.640 --> 0:17:59.920 where the bride left the groom at the altar because 0:18:00.160 --> 0:18:03.919 his views on trans rites and BLM were not to 0:18:04.000 --> 0:18:04.600 her liking. 0:18:05.240 --> 0:18:10.199 I've always wanted a partner to be on the scene wavelength, 0:18:12.560 --> 0:18:13.440 and so today. 0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:15.040 I can't. 0:18:18.280 --> 0:18:22.200 Yep. The bride then explained why she dumped Ben. 0:18:22.520 --> 0:18:24.360 He asked him about like Black Lives matter, and I'm 0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:26.879 no expert, but like when I asked him about it, 0:18:26.920 --> 0:18:28.760 he was like, I guess I never really thought too 0:18:28.800 --> 0:18:29.440 much about it. 0:18:29.680 --> 0:18:30.480 That affected me. 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:37.280 I watched a sermon online from about yeah, sexual identity, 0:18:37.359 --> 0:18:39.439 and it was traditional. 0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:43.159 The horror a church with traditional views on gender, Like, 0:18:43.200 --> 0:18:46.840 I don't know, men are men and women are women. Dude, Ben, 0:18:47.560 --> 0:18:50.879 you dodged a bullet. Move on, count your lucky stars. 0:18:51.320 --> 0:18:54.960 Let's go to Europe where the topless feminists are back. 0:18:55.160 --> 0:18:59.160 This time they are doing Nazi salutes and chanting about 0:18:59.200 --> 0:19:02.400 Donald Trump and onsk. I've got to say, this sort 0:19:02.440 --> 0:19:10.760 of performative activism is really rather tyresoon. I go, yeah, 0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:14.919 like I said, tiresome. Then the ladies let off some 0:19:15.000 --> 0:19:19.360 smoke bombs and chanted about fascists and marched around pretending 0:19:19.400 --> 0:19:23.159 to be nazis not a bra or brain cell to 0:19:23.160 --> 0:19:31.840 be seen amongst this lot. Look, I'm just surprised I 0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:35.640 didn't see Justin Trudeau amongst those ladies. He's got more 0:19:35.760 --> 0:19:38.000 feminine energy than any gal I know. 0:19:38.560 --> 0:19:42.960 On a personal level, I've made sure that every single 0:19:43.080 --> 0:19:46.760 day in this office, I put Canadians first that I 0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:51.880 have people's backs, and that's why I'm here to tell 0:19:51.920 --> 0:19:56.040 you all we got you, even in the very last 0:19:56.119 --> 0:20:00.320 days of this government. We will not let Canadians down 0:20:00.520 --> 0:20:03.280 today and long into the future. 0:20:03.640 --> 0:20:07.119 Cool story, bro, you think we've forgotten about what you 0:20:07.160 --> 0:20:11.280 did to Canadian truckers and their supporters just for protesting 0:20:11.320 --> 0:20:16.080 against your insane lockdowns. Please, your tears aren't going to 0:20:16.200 --> 0:20:20.080 save you, or your legacy is trash. Now let's go 0:20:20.160 --> 0:20:24.320 to CNN, where the usual suspects are screeching crazy stuff 0:20:24.320 --> 0:20:29.080 about fascism. Apparently we're in the middle of a totalitarian 0:20:29.160 --> 0:20:29.960 fascist coup. 0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:33.679 So scared, but we are in the middle of a 0:20:33.720 --> 0:20:37.880 totalitarian fascist coup in this country, and we don't call 0:20:37.920 --> 0:20:40.240 it that. When we soft pedal it, we don't have 0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:42.840 a real discussion about it. At least here I could 0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:44.680 say those words. We can have that discussion. You will 0:20:44.680 --> 0:20:46.480 not see those words in the New York Times or 0:20:46.480 --> 0:20:47.639 the Washington We. 0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:49.359 Were being honest. 0:20:49.440 --> 0:20:52.720 There should be a breaking news banner on CNNA emmesody 0:20:52.880 --> 0:20:53.600 all day long. 0:20:53.880 --> 0:20:54.879 We are in dictatorship. 0:20:54.920 --> 0:20:57.840 Well, l now, when the Washington Post and New York 0:20:57.920 --> 0:21:01.800 Times is a left or anti Trump enough for you? 0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:05.080 Then you may need therapy, not a spot on a 0:21:05.280 --> 0:21:09.920 CNN panel show. Next CNN will be offering this guy 0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:12.639 a regular gig make America great again. 0:21:12.760 --> 0:21:14.399 Oh not figures. 0:21:15.920 --> 0:21:17.640 This is this is the part that I love. 0:21:17.760 --> 0:21:19.359 That's why you're a mag. 0:21:21.200 --> 0:21:21.480 Mag. 0:21:21.800 --> 0:21:22.320 I'm happy. 0:21:22.560 --> 0:21:23.480 You're mad. 0:21:24.119 --> 0:21:26.800 You're mad, you're mad. 0:21:27.840 --> 0:21:29.800 Don't touch me, Hey, don't touch me. 0:21:30.040 --> 0:21:33.800 You touch me, you don't get away from me. 0:21:34.720 --> 0:21:38.600 Isn't it always the way the bullies cry and pretend 0:21:38.640 --> 0:21:41.879 to be the victims. This is what the Left has become. 0:21:42.040 --> 0:21:45.240 They're the cry bullies. Now let's look at a real 0:21:45.320 --> 0:21:49.080 case of racism in the streets. A girl minding her 0:21:49.080 --> 0:21:53.520 own business being attacked and followed for having her hair 0:21:53.600 --> 0:21:58.000 in braids. Apparently only folk of certain skin tones are 0:21:58.040 --> 0:22:01.480 allowed to have their hair in that style these days. Ugliest, 0:22:02.480 --> 0:22:04.320 we weren't that it's greats. 0:22:05.040 --> 0:22:08.000 Take that out now, really, re take that out? 0:22:08.040 --> 0:22:10.600 Now, okay, what's your take that shit out? 0:22:10.640 --> 0:22:10.880 Now? 0:22:12.160 --> 0:22:20.840 Take this out? Now? Take that out. It's hot, it's 0:22:21.040 --> 0:22:21.760 ugly though. 0:22:22.000 --> 0:22:23.920 Like I'm looking her hair. 0:22:23.920 --> 0:22:29.320 It doesn't look back. Now. For the record, white folk, 0:22:29.400 --> 0:22:32.560 and i'd imagine everyone else has been braiding hair for 0:22:32.880 --> 0:22:37.560 thousands of years. Vikings to h all the way back 0:22:37.600 --> 0:22:41.359 to the venus of Wildendorf some thirty thousand years ago. 0:22:41.480 --> 0:22:44.760 But apparently it's offensive now. Well, that young lady being 0:22:44.800 --> 0:22:48.680 harassed and chased has addressed a controversy. And the crazy 0:22:48.720 --> 0:22:51.800
