WEBVTT - The Late Debate | 28 November

0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:00.640
<v Speaker 1>Lately.

0:00:01.400 --> 0:00:05.240
<v Speaker 2>General, welcome to the Late pay.

0:00:07.120 --> 0:00:07.280
<v Speaker 1>Well.

0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:08.039
<v Speaker 2>Thanks for joining us.

0:00:08.080 --> 0:00:11.320
<v Speaker 3>I'm James Macpherson with Joe Hildebrand and Liz Sto. Great

0:00:11.320 --> 0:00:12.120
<v Speaker 3>to have your company.

0:00:12.200 --> 0:00:12.680
<v Speaker 2>We've got a.

0:00:12.600 --> 0:00:16.200
<v Speaker 3>Lot to get through tonight, including a woman accused of

0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:20.720
<v Speaker 3>race hate for playing a Bob Bob Marley record. I reckon,

0:00:20.720 --> 0:00:22.880
<v Speaker 3>if you're going to engage your hate, you'd probably pay

0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:25.480
<v Speaker 3>us Taylor Swift record or something like that. We'll talk

0:00:25.480 --> 0:00:27.600
<v Speaker 3>about that later. Plus, when we look at the papers,

0:00:27.960 --> 0:00:32.240
<v Speaker 3>a new South Wales school slammed over sexually explicit questions

0:00:32.280 --> 0:00:36.640
<v Speaker 3>being asked of students in a classroom, and Victoria Park's

0:00:36.680 --> 0:00:40.920
<v Speaker 3>boss loses his job over the controversial closure of climbing

0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:43.559
<v Speaker 3>routes in Victoria. We'll get to all of that when

0:00:43.560 --> 0:00:47.280
<v Speaker 3>we look at the papers. But first, it's Islamophobia Awareness

0:00:47.320 --> 0:00:51.080
<v Speaker 3>Month in the United Kingdom and to celebrate, Prime Minister

0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:56.360
<v Speaker 3>Keir Starmer has left open the possibility of introducing blasphemy laws.

0:00:56.880 --> 0:00:58.840
<v Speaker 2>He was asked in Parliament today.

0:00:58.560 --> 0:01:01.320
<v Speaker 3>By one of his own Muslim mp if you would

0:01:01.320 --> 0:01:06.440
<v Speaker 3>commit to criminalizing the desecration of religious texts and the

0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:11.280
<v Speaker 3>prophet and Kirstama seemed way too inclined to oblige have

0:01:11.280 --> 0:01:11.720
<v Speaker 3>a listen.

0:01:12.720 --> 0:01:16.839
<v Speaker 4>Will the Prime Minister commit to introducing megas to prohibit

0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:18.319
<v Speaker 4>the desecration of.

0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:21.600
<v Speaker 5>All religious texts and the profits.

0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:24.320
<v Speaker 1>Of the Abrahamic religion. We are, as I said, the

0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:27.200
<v Speaker 1>foremost to speaker, committed to tackling all forms of hatred

0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:31.520
<v Speaker 1>and division, including of course Islamophobia in all of its forms.

0:01:32.800 --> 0:01:35.200
<v Speaker 2>Just before we get into the discussion on this, just.

0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:39.000
<v Speaker 3>Should point out the sleight of hand by Tahir A

0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:43.960
<v Speaker 3>Lee who asked the question he's a Muslim MP. He

0:01:44.400 --> 0:01:50.080
<v Speaker 3>talked about can we outlaw disrespect for religious texts and

0:01:50.200 --> 0:01:53.440
<v Speaker 3>for profits of the Abrahamic religions? And of course what

0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:57.680
<v Speaker 3>that means is he's talking on behalf of Christians, Jews

0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:02.160
<v Speaker 3>and Muslims. Interesting, of course, is that neither Christians nor

0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:08.280
<v Speaker 3>Jews are calling for the criminalization of anybody disrespecting their religion,

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:11.440
<v Speaker 3>but he pulls them in to make it seem like

0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:14.360
<v Speaker 3>he's doing this for everybody.

0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:17.919
<v Speaker 1>He's worried about criticism of for the prophet Isaiah. Sure,

0:02:18.240 --> 0:02:21.840
<v Speaker 1>every obviously Isaiah, that was the first one that came

0:02:21.880 --> 0:02:23.000
<v Speaker 1>to mind. Mind, who are you thinking of it?

0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:27.120
<v Speaker 3>Well, it's also nonsensical because Christians believe Jesus is God

0:02:27.160 --> 0:02:30.080
<v Speaker 3>in human form. Muslims do not believe that at all.

0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:32.200
<v Speaker 3>They just believe he's a mere man, though a very

0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:35.960
<v Speaker 3>good one. And Jews think he was a total blasphemous.

0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:38.560
<v Speaker 3>So you've got all of these contradictions. But here's the

0:02:38.560 --> 0:02:41.440
<v Speaker 3>big thing. What he's asking for is not for people

0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 3>to be protected. He's asking for ideas to be protected.

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:48.400
<v Speaker 3>And the one idea that should never be protected, and

0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:51.359
<v Speaker 3>I said this is a Christian is the idea of religion,

0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:55.160
<v Speaker 3>because religion is your answer to the big questions in life,

0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 3>where do we come from, what's wrong with the world,

0:02:57.960 --> 0:02:59.840
<v Speaker 3>how do we fix it? How do you define right

0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:02.720
<v Speaker 3>and wrong? What happens when you die? If you can't

0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:06.880
<v Speaker 3>discuss those questions openly, then it pretty much makes it

0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:10.680
<v Speaker 3>impossible to talk about anything meaningful at all. And that's

0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:13.200
<v Speaker 3>what he's asking for, and that's what the UK Prime

0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:14.799
<v Speaker 3>Minister is saying he is.

0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:18.440
<v Speaker 2>Open to doing, to outlawing.

0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:21.760
<v Speaker 3>Any disrespect of religious ideas. You can't have a free

0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:25.800
<v Speaker 3>society in which religious ideas are unable to be critique,

0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:28.320
<v Speaker 3>criticized and if you want mocked.

0:03:28.639 --> 0:03:31.560
<v Speaker 6>Indeed, and the Prime Minister, of course, no one would

0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:35.400
<v Speaker 6>expect this from kir Starmer should have responded by saying.

0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:36.119
<v Speaker 5>Mate, get stuffed.

0:03:36.440 --> 0:03:37.200
<v Speaker 2>This is the UK.

0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:40.560
<v Speaker 6>We have freedom of speech here and that includes people

0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 6>being able to say things that you might not like.

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:47.480
<v Speaker 5>Boohoo, so sad, this very weird would have.

0:03:47.440 --> 0:03:47.960
<v Speaker 1>Been a weird thing.

0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 6>Is utterly ridiculous, right, because a phobia isn't an irrational fear.

0:03:55.840 --> 0:04:00.040
<v Speaker 6>And I genuinely get hot under the collar when I

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:03.760
<v Speaker 6>consider that people in the UK are being lectured on

0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:09.440
<v Speaker 6>is Lamophobia on the daily, when these guys have copped it,

0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:13.800
<v Speaker 6>when we talk about terrorist attacks on their own soil,

0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:18.400
<v Speaker 6>all by radical Islamist Back to two thousand and six,

0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:20.360
<v Speaker 6>we've got fifty two dead in.

0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:21.880
<v Speaker 5>The July London bombings.

0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:22.600
<v Speaker 1>In the tubes.

0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:27.440
<v Speaker 6>We all remember that one May twenty seventeen Manchester.

0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:29.520
<v Speaker 5>Arena bombing, another twenty two dead.

0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:34.200
<v Speaker 6>A month later, eight dead in the London Bridge attack.

0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:38.320
<v Speaker 6>And this is to say nothing of the individual instances

0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:41.880
<v Speaker 6>of people being beheaded in the street, as was the

0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:46.920
<v Speaker 6>case with Samuel Patty in twenty twenty, a teacher in

0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:51.239
<v Speaker 6>France going about his own business beheaded in the street,

0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:54.799
<v Speaker 6>and the twenty sixteen case. These are just the ones

0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:58.280
<v Speaker 6>that came to mind, by the way, the twenty sixteen

0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:01.000
<v Speaker 6>case of the pre least his name was.

0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:04.200
<v Speaker 5>Jack Hammel who's beheaded during Mass.

0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:07.839
<v Speaker 6>And of course most recently they're still coming to mind,

0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:11.920
<v Speaker 6>ladies and gentlemen, the Southport case where we had three

0:05:11.960 --> 0:05:15.880
<v Speaker 6>little girls killed by a guy who had in his

0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:18.880
<v Speaker 6>possession an El Qaida training manual.

0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:20.880
<v Speaker 5>So how dare.

0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:25.760
<v Speaker 6>You lecture people in the UK on being Islamophobic when

0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:30.000
<v Speaker 6>any fear they have is bloody well founded if they

0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:34.560
<v Speaker 6>have concerns relating to Islam. That is a country who

0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:37.239
<v Speaker 6>can say, don't lecture us, mate.

0:05:37.240 --> 0:05:39.240
<v Speaker 5>And this is nothing to do with a phobia.

0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:42.240
<v Speaker 6>This has nothing to do with racism, This has nothing

0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:45.680
<v Speaker 6>to do with us hating Muslims. We've simply had a

0:05:45.800 --> 0:05:49.400
<v Speaker 6>gut full of you gaslighting us into believing there's something

0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:53.440
<v Speaker 6>wrong with us when we simply keep looking at these cases.

0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:55.200
<v Speaker 6>And I'm sure if I lived in the UK I

0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:58.360
<v Speaker 6>could name far, far more. I haven't even got started

0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:01.360
<v Speaker 6>on the grooming gangs have been making a lot of

0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:05.920
<v Speaker 6>headlines in the UK recently, and their Prime Minister just

0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:08.320
<v Speaker 6>wants to be like, oh, yeah, well, we're just going

0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:11.520
<v Speaker 6>to keep you know, putting the screws in you guys,

0:06:11.560 --> 0:06:13.440
<v Speaker 6>we can't have Islamophobia.

0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:16.440
<v Speaker 1>I think he's actually doing something a bit cleverer than that,

0:06:16.520 --> 0:06:20.120
<v Speaker 1>I think because so he's obviously got his MP who said,

0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:24.039
<v Speaker 1>all right, will you commit to laws banning the desecration

0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:27.880
<v Speaker 1>quote unquote of religious texts? That is not what Keir

0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:31.039
<v Speaker 1>Starmer agrees to. So kis Dama says, oh, we're committed to,

0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:33.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, to tackling Islamo phobia, just.

0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:34.400
<v Speaker 5>Something fun.

0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:38.200
<v Speaker 2>A lot of forms, in all its forms, in.

0:06:38.200 --> 0:06:40.240
<v Speaker 1>All its forms. That's right, But he's not actually committing

0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:42.520
<v Speaker 1>to And again this is sort of politics. One oh one. Yeah,

0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:44.560
<v Speaker 1>I answer the question that you want to answer, not

0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 1>the questions that's actually been asked. So it's a bit

0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:50.360
<v Speaker 1>like the very famous example in New South Wales was

0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:51.680
<v Speaker 1>when there was a bit of a law and order

0:06:51.720 --> 0:06:56.159
<v Speaker 1>auction and the coalition was demanding minimum sentences of twenty

0:06:56.200 --> 0:06:59.760
<v Speaker 1>five years for murder, and the state government under bobcast It.

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:02.360
<v Speaker 7>You say, minimum sentence of twenty five years for murder,

0:07:02.480 --> 0:07:06.320
<v Speaker 7>we are proposing maximum sentences of thirty five years for murder.

0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:08.440
<v Speaker 7>Because yeah, but we're talking about minimum centers is twenty

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:09.960
<v Speaker 7>five years. Yeah, but we're saying, we're going to have

0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:12.840
<v Speaker 7>a maximum sentence of thirty five years. So you place

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:16.880
<v Speaker 7>the So you're you're responding to a question he's not saying. Now, Islamophobia,

0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 7>like homophobia or like you know, anti Semitism or whatever,

0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:28.400
<v Speaker 7>is not the irrational fear or hatred of religious texts,

0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:29.440
<v Speaker 7>which is.

0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:33.080
<v Speaker 1>It's not of the text. You're falling for the same trap. Again,

0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:35.200
<v Speaker 1>it's not of the text. It's of the people, rights

0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:38.400
<v Speaker 1>of the So it's the mistreatment of Muslims based on

0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:41.120
<v Speaker 1>whatever you think, just as antisemitism is the mistreatment of

0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Jews based on what you think of them. And so

0:07:43.680 --> 0:07:46.880
<v Speaker 1>he answers a completely different question to that, and I

0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:49.720
<v Speaker 1>think you can. You can. And again, you know, there's

0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Muslims and there's actual Islamness, which is the extreme form

0:07:52.680 --> 0:07:56.120
<v Speaker 1>of Islam that results in terrorism and extremism and fundamentalism.

0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:58.560
<v Speaker 1>And again that is a sort of different thing. Again,

0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:01.560
<v Speaker 1>so you can tackle you can. You can still have

0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:04.600
<v Speaker 1>measures that apply to zonophobia, just as they would to

0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:08.920
<v Speaker 1>anti Semitism without touching which is vital, Without touching the

0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:11.160
<v Speaker 1>ability of people to be able to criticize the Koran

0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:13.600
<v Speaker 1>or indeed, you know, make jokes about it like they

0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:14.000
<v Speaker 1>do about it.

0:08:16.040 --> 0:08:17.640
<v Speaker 2>That's very clever politics.

0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:21.559
<v Speaker 3>Then, from Kirstar, if it is as you described, except

0:08:21.640 --> 0:08:24.280
<v Speaker 3>this is not a time for clever politics. This has

0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:27.560
<v Speaker 3>made front page news right through the UK because people

0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:32.079
<v Speaker 3>have said he's clearly given an obtuse answer. He's given

0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:34.960
<v Speaker 3>a clever answer when what people want is clear direction

0:08:35.600 --> 0:08:38.320
<v Speaker 3>that we've got leadership who won't put up with the

0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:40.840
<v Speaker 3>sorts of things that you have described and the kind

0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:42.360
<v Speaker 3>of retrick that leads to that.

0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:43.959
<v Speaker 2>But he's not given clear leadership.

0:08:43.960 --> 0:08:47.160
<v Speaker 3>He's trying to play both sides of defence and in

0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:49.840
<v Speaker 3>doing that all he does is give you encouragement to extremists.

0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:52.320
<v Speaker 1>That's right. Sorry, if you look at and I dare say,

0:08:52.320 --> 0:08:54.400
<v Speaker 1>if you look at the election result we've just had

0:08:54.440 --> 0:08:56.560
<v Speaker 1>in the US, and I dare say Labor would have that,

0:08:56.600 --> 0:08:58.880
<v Speaker 1>and it's got its own problems as well with the

0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:02.440
<v Speaker 1>budget have just passed. I think I think they would

0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:07.400
<v Speaker 1>be very sort of I suppose they would be have

0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:09.319
<v Speaker 1>one eye on that. They would have one eye on

0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:11.719
<v Speaker 1>their constituents. And again there are a lot of very

0:09:11.840 --> 0:09:16.839
<v Speaker 1>very Muslim heavy seats in the four million four million.

0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:19.640
<v Speaker 1>There are also I think five seats that were won

0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:24.040
<v Speaker 1>by Muslim voice or Muslim votes matter type candidates either.

0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:26.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they ran as an actual party, but

0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:28.880
<v Speaker 1>people who are aligned to that movement, so they are

0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:31.520
<v Speaker 1>going to have half an eye on that as well.

0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:33.720
<v Speaker 1>But I totally agree that it should be absolutely no

0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:36.040
<v Speaker 1>place for blasphemy laws. I mean, look at the number

0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:39.760
<v Speaker 1>of jokes that people have made throughout the centuries about

0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:43.600
<v Speaker 1>characters in the Bible, including Jesus himself. Now the idea

0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:47.720
<v Speaker 1>that you would add a stroke effectively ban all of

0:09:47.760 --> 0:09:50.839
<v Speaker 1>those because imagine the law fare that Christian groups would

0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:53.600
<v Speaker 1>engage on. Imagine the mass class actions they would if

0:09:53.640 --> 0:09:57.280
<v Speaker 1>there was the same applied to it. And again, does

0:09:57.320 --> 0:10:00.439
<v Speaker 1>this means that you know that Kiostama or you Calaber

0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:02.000
<v Speaker 1>says Charlie, hebdo had it coming.

0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:04.760
<v Speaker 3>The reason you can tell so many Christian jokes is

0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:07.840
<v Speaker 3>because Christians don't believe in shutting down any critique.

0:10:08.400 --> 0:10:10.840
<v Speaker 6>People know that they're not going to be beheaded in

0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:16.079
<v Speaker 6>the street if they criticize Christianity, Catholicism, et cetera, et cetera,

0:10:16.120 --> 0:10:19.520
<v Speaker 6>and so on to the US now, and perhaps the

0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:26.000
<v Speaker 6>biggest confirmation that most Polsters are absolutely pathetic at their jobs. Today,

0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:31.960
<v Speaker 6>we learned from one of Harris's main campaign guys that

0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:37.560
<v Speaker 6>their internal polling actually never showed Harris out front of

0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:40.880
<v Speaker 6>Trump in any way, shape or form.

0:10:41.120 --> 0:10:41.680
<v Speaker 5>Check it out.

0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:45.079
<v Speaker 6>Hear it from him here he is talking to Pod

0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:47.480
<v Speaker 6>Save America podcast.

0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:49.680
<v Speaker 5>You can hear it from the horse's mouth.

0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:54.400
<v Speaker 8>When we got in. My recollection is some of that snapback.

0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:56.520
<v Speaker 8>But you know we were behind. I mean, I think

0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:59.600
<v Speaker 8>it surprised people because there was these public polls that

0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:03.040
<v Speaker 8>came out in late September early October shown us with

0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:05.440
<v Speaker 8>leads that we never saw. I think even after the

0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:07.959
<v Speaker 8>debate we might have gained what point five to one.

0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:10.400
<v Speaker 8>It wasn't a race that moved a lot. You know,

0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:12.520
<v Speaker 8>you've got to have bun decided to break your way

0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:14.679
<v Speaker 8>more than your opponents, and you've got to get a

0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:17.160
<v Speaker 8>little benefit from turnout, which we weren't able to do.

0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:19.880
<v Speaker 5>Thank you, David Plof.

0:11:20.080 --> 0:11:23.480
<v Speaker 6>So how was it that the public polls which he

0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:26.480
<v Speaker 6>made reference to there were so out of step with

0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:30.440
<v Speaker 6>their own internal polling, whereby they knew there was more

0:11:30.480 --> 0:11:33.120
<v Speaker 6>than one other guy on their campaign who joined him

0:11:33.160 --> 0:11:35.840
<v Speaker 6>on that podcast, and they said, look, we knew we

0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:39.760
<v Speaker 6>actually knew it was a lost cause, which begs the question,

0:11:40.040 --> 0:11:43.320
<v Speaker 6>had everyone known it was a lost cause, do you

0:11:43.600 --> 0:11:48.480
<v Speaker 6>think Harris would have had a billion dollars to incinerate?

0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:50.320
<v Speaker 5>I think not.

0:11:50.720 --> 0:11:53.440
<v Speaker 6>Can you imagine being one of her donors right now

0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:57.760
<v Speaker 6>and learning that these guys always knew that it was

0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:00.920
<v Speaker 6>a jolly lost cause. Check out this great of just

0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:06.000
<v Speaker 6>how out of touch the average polster was with what

0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:10.400
<v Speaker 6>was actually going on behind the scenes in the Harris camp.

0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:13.079
<v Speaker 6>In the right hand column there you can see how

0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:19.400
<v Speaker 6>badly the end result deviated from what they projected was

0:12:19.520 --> 0:12:23.560
<v Speaker 6>going to happen. This is an absolute embarrassment. And we

0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:25.400
<v Speaker 6>had David Plouf there saying that.

0:12:25.720 --> 0:12:27.559
<v Speaker 5>It didn't even change.

0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:31.400
<v Speaker 6>Much after she took after dementia Joe. Now we were told, oh,

0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:34.400
<v Speaker 6>Harris is at the wheel. Now she actually did really

0:12:34.440 --> 0:12:37.120
<v Speaker 6>well during the debate. Don't you think that was amazing?

0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:41.040
<v Speaker 6>She's doing incredibly. The Trump camp should be worried. She's

0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:44.640
<v Speaker 6>actually skyrocketing and popularity, and we all said, oh, maybe

0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:47.680
<v Speaker 6>it's just a honeymoon period. You know, she's just taken

0:12:47.720 --> 0:12:51.600
<v Speaker 6>over from Joe. She didn't actually crash and burn in

0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:54.719
<v Speaker 6>the debate as we were expecting, and we just thought, oh,

0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:57.080
<v Speaker 6>you know, she's has got a bit of a pump

0:12:57.120 --> 0:12:59.920
<v Speaker 6>in the polls. Maybe this will be tighter than we thought.

0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:04.440
<v Speaker 5>Turns out it was all a nonsense. So much for

0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:08.240
<v Speaker 5>suppression polls being a conspiracy theory. Another great day to

0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:09.520
<v Speaker 5>be a conspiracy theory.

0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:13.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, well, this is private internal party polling. They're

0:13:13.480 --> 0:13:15.440
<v Speaker 1>not going to make a public they never do, never have,

0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:19.640
<v Speaker 1>never will. Otherwise, what's the point They're not going to

0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:22.720
<v Speaker 1>do it before during the actual election campaign. No, of course,

0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:24.880
<v Speaker 1>that's the whole point of having your own internal polster.

0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:26.600
<v Speaker 1>And then you've got the public poles. If you actually

0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:30.240
<v Speaker 1>looked at the public polls throughout the entire campaign, as

0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:33.280
<v Speaker 1>I was doing obsessively, they showed pretty much the same

0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:36.199
<v Speaker 1>thing he was talking here, mostly about the battleground states,

0:13:36.360 --> 0:13:38.760
<v Speaker 1>which is also the ones that matter, that's right, And

0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:41.520
<v Speaker 1>you know there's about seven of those that really matters,

0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:44.880
<v Speaker 1>Pennsylvania being the most important, but you know, Wisconsin, Michigan,

0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:49.680
<v Speaker 1>and a handful of others, Georgia, Arizona, those sorts of

0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:51.560
<v Speaker 1>things if you actually looked at them, if you look

0:13:51.600 --> 0:13:53.880
<v Speaker 1>at the average of polls, that the real clear politics.

0:13:53.880 --> 0:13:55.600
<v Speaker 1>Who are five thirty eight puts up all the time.

0:13:56.000 --> 0:13:59.760
<v Speaker 1>Trump was marginally ahead, a tiny bit ahead in most

0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:03.120
<v Speaker 1>of those most of the time. And that's why, that's why,

0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:04.880
<v Speaker 1>and that's why you saw and that's why you no

0:14:04.920 --> 0:14:10.040
<v Speaker 1>Trumps mostly and again. And Paul Murray, you know, was

0:14:10.280 --> 0:14:12.760
<v Speaker 1>constantly drawing attention to this fact. And it was a

0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:16.320
<v Speaker 1>white knuckle ride. But Trump won by much much, much

0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:19.120
<v Speaker 1>more than those poles predicted. So those poles still got

0:14:19.160 --> 0:14:21.360
<v Speaker 1>it wrong. But this is what I found really strange.

0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:23.600
<v Speaker 1>It was that even when I think I mentioned it

0:14:23.600 --> 0:14:26.080
<v Speaker 1>on my podcast, the real story with Joe Hilda Round

0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:30.480
<v Speaker 1>download it now, which is the gas sliding. And this

0:14:30.520 --> 0:14:33.760
<v Speaker 1>is what makes it even worse, the obsession of say

0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:36.240
<v Speaker 1>the MSNBC types or the CNN types, or we had

0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:38.800
<v Speaker 1>certain you know, Twitter raadi here, you know, saying I

0:14:38.800 --> 0:14:40.560
<v Speaker 1>predict it's going to be Carmela by this and that

0:14:40.600 --> 0:14:45.600
<v Speaker 1>we sat the ridiculous Iowa pole. But it was right

0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:47.840
<v Speaker 1>there in front of their faces. This is this wasn't

0:14:47.920 --> 0:14:50.920
<v Speaker 1>even like in twenty sixteen where everyone's saying, oh, it's

0:14:50.920 --> 0:14:53.480
<v Speaker 1>definitely Hillary Clinton, it's all over bar the shouting. The

0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:58.840
<v Speaker 1>poles were still showing it was incredibly close. The battleground

0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:03.480
<v Speaker 1>states edged towards Trump more than Harris the vast majority

0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:07.400
<v Speaker 1>of the time, and the bedding market had Trump pretty much,

0:15:07.560 --> 0:15:09.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, fifty five forty five.

0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:12.480
<v Speaker 3>So how do you for the whole time parody because

0:15:12.480 --> 0:15:15.280
<v Speaker 3>between the internal polling and all the other polling.

0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:16.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, no, this is what I'm saying, though their internal

0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:20.720
<v Speaker 1>polling actually matches up pretty well with the public polling.

0:15:20.840 --> 0:15:25.280
<v Speaker 1>What neither matches up with is the result, and neither

0:15:25.280 --> 0:15:26.480
<v Speaker 1>matches up with the commentary of.

0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:27.640
<v Speaker 5>People who thought it was sad.

0:15:28.040 --> 0:15:31.240
<v Speaker 6>He said, the public polls had us ahead, and we

0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:33.880
<v Speaker 6>never saw that in our internal poll didn't you.

0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:36.520
<v Speaker 1>He said that we were always behind the battleground.

0:15:36.080 --> 0:15:40.400
<v Speaker 5>Rod about post debate famous right.

0:15:41.720 --> 0:15:44.880
<v Speaker 1>And that that polster has actually resigned. That showed up

0:15:44.920 --> 0:15:47.280
<v Speaker 1>something like a ten to fifteen point turnaround. It was

0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:51.080
<v Speaker 1>absolutely bonkers, right, So that was some weird, crazy anomally

0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:53.040
<v Speaker 1>and that should have just been put on the scrap

0:15:53.040 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 1>heap and just burned alive, because that was clearly just

0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:58.240
<v Speaker 1>a crazy, crazy outlier. And yeah, maybe the pub and

0:15:58.240 --> 0:16:00.920
<v Speaker 1>the public poles I think were probably a bit more

0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:03.960
<v Speaker 1>favorable to Carmla because I think a lot of Trump

0:16:04.080 --> 0:16:07.720
<v Speaker 1>voters were gaming the polls and just not answering. And

0:16:07.720 --> 0:16:10.120
<v Speaker 1>there was some anecdotal evidence after that. Say here a poster,

0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:11.760
<v Speaker 1>I say, no, f you, I'm not talking to you,

0:16:11.880 --> 0:16:13.520
<v Speaker 1>don't trust you. You're part of the system.

0:16:13.600 --> 0:16:17.920
<v Speaker 6>But they don't explain that people are watching these polls

0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:20.400
<v Speaker 6>unfold on MSNBCC and.

0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:24.240
<v Speaker 1>What I'm saying, even those false hope, but even those

0:16:24.760 --> 0:16:27.360
<v Speaker 1>but even the polls, if you actually look at them,

0:16:27.440 --> 0:16:30.520
<v Speaker 1>weren't giving them pulse. You had people talking about them,

0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:32.760
<v Speaker 1>talking about Karmala mentor.

0:16:33.880 --> 0:16:36.560
<v Speaker 5>Internal polling clearly disagree with you, Joe.

0:16:36.760 --> 0:16:43.000
<v Speaker 1>So no privately knew they that to stay privately knew

0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:45.760
<v Speaker 1>that things were not going as well as all Karmala

0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:48.160
<v Speaker 1>Harris's cheerleaders were saying they were going. That is exactly

0:16:48.200 --> 0:16:50.240
<v Speaker 1>what I'm trying to tell you that you had people

0:16:50.360 --> 0:16:55.120
<v Speaker 1>who were so blinded, it was so completely dissociated from

0:16:55.120 --> 0:16:57.920
<v Speaker 1>the possibility that Donald Trump could actually win, that they

0:16:57.920 --> 0:17:02.160
<v Speaker 1>were talking about Karmala Harris having this rollicking campaign, having

0:17:02.160 --> 0:17:05.600
<v Speaker 1>all this Famouskama momentum and being ahead and going to win,

0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:08.960
<v Speaker 1>when even the public polls that were published were saying

0:17:09.240 --> 0:17:11.600
<v Speaker 1>in most cases the opposite of that. That is how

0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:14.359
<v Speaker 1>deluded they were so again, it wasn't like Hillary Clinton

0:17:14.600 --> 0:17:16.960
<v Speaker 1>in twenty sixteen, where they were following what the Poles

0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:20.240
<v Speaker 1>were actually telling them. Well, poles never pointed to They

0:17:20.280 --> 0:17:22.520
<v Speaker 1>didn't point to a Trump landslide, but they sure as

0:17:22.560 --> 0:17:25.080
<v Speaker 1>hell never pointed to a Harris landslide. It was always

0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:27.920
<v Speaker 1>at most a white no you.

0:17:27.880 --> 0:17:31.240
<v Speaker 3>Mentioned disassociation from reality, which is a perfect way to

0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:33.480
<v Speaker 3>describe Kamala Harris.

0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:35.120
<v Speaker 2>She's still talking to.

0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:38.159
<v Speaker 3>Americans saying, don't lose your power, even though she of

0:17:38.200 --> 0:17:39.560
<v Speaker 3>course has lost hers.

0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:41.800
<v Speaker 2>He is a recent video she released and a look

0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:42.040
<v Speaker 2>at this.

0:17:42.880 --> 0:17:47.159
<v Speaker 9>I just have to remind you, don't you ever let

0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:51.119
<v Speaker 9>anybody take your power from you. You have the same

0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:55.919
<v Speaker 9>power that you did before November fifth, and you have

0:17:56.040 --> 0:18:00.840
<v Speaker 9>the same purpose that you did, and you have the

0:18:00.880 --> 0:18:07.679
<v Speaker 9>same ability to engage and inspire. So don't ever let

0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:10.600
<v Speaker 9>anybody or any circumstance take your power from you.

0:18:12.240 --> 0:18:14.680
<v Speaker 3>Now, she's still speaking in word sounds, but to help

0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:18.240
<v Speaker 3>us understand what's really going on in that video, someone's

0:18:18.280 --> 0:18:20.480
<v Speaker 3>just added a few little parts to make it a

0:18:20.480 --> 0:18:22.240
<v Speaker 3>bit more obvious what's actually happening.

0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:27.159
<v Speaker 9>Would you ever let anybody take your power from you?

0:18:27.160 --> 0:18:31.480
<v Speaker 9>You have the same power that you did before November fifth,

0:18:32.600 --> 0:18:35.480
<v Speaker 9>and you have the same purpose that you did.

0:18:37.800 --> 0:18:40.440
<v Speaker 3>You know, when your friends are drinking, you typically take

0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:45.320
<v Speaker 3>away their keys. Maybe take away their camera, Liz, that would.

0:18:45.080 --> 0:18:45.840
<v Speaker 5>Be very kind.

0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:48.840
<v Speaker 6>The funniest part of all of this the video goes

0:18:48.880 --> 0:18:52.200
<v Speaker 6>for almost ten minutes, her full address to the nation,

0:18:52.400 --> 0:18:55.919
<v Speaker 6>first we've heard of her since the failed election bid,

0:18:56.680 --> 0:19:00.560
<v Speaker 6>and the full length is so much more painful to watch.

0:19:00.680 --> 0:19:02.720
<v Speaker 5>I do not recommend it.

0:19:02.720 --> 0:19:06.960
<v Speaker 6>Back to Australia now, where medical cannabis is taking the

0:19:07.080 --> 0:19:08.560
<v Speaker 6>nation by storm.

0:19:08.720 --> 0:19:11.240
<v Speaker 5>Get this, we are expected to.

0:19:11.280 --> 0:19:15.400
<v Speaker 6>Spend a billion dollars on medical cannabis this year as

0:19:15.600 --> 0:19:18.119
<v Speaker 6>use of the drug sky rocket.

0:19:18.320 --> 0:19:19.600
<v Speaker 1>That's just Kamala Harris's use.

0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:23.960
<v Speaker 6>I was gonna say, maybe we shouldn't have put alcohol

0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:25.320
<v Speaker 6>in the AI version of that.

0:19:25.520 --> 0:19:29.440
<v Speaker 5>Someone could have just easily put a bong in there instead.

0:19:29.920 --> 0:19:33.840
<v Speaker 6>But this spending correlates with usage, which jumped from just

0:19:33.920 --> 0:19:37.280
<v Speaker 6>three point nine percent of survey respondents in a twenty

0:19:37.480 --> 0:19:41.800
<v Speaker 6>nineteen survey to almost thirty percent admitting they.

0:19:41.760 --> 0:19:44.080
<v Speaker 5>Use prescription marijuana.

0:19:44.240 --> 0:19:49.040
<v Speaker 6>Now, it's true, this is a wonder plant for people

0:19:49.119 --> 0:19:54.760
<v Speaker 6>with a plethora of physical and mental issues. Anyone who

0:19:54.800 --> 0:19:56.919
<v Speaker 6>knows much about medical marijuana knows that.

0:19:57.119 --> 0:19:58.880
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's it's referred to as.

0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:01.080
<v Speaker 6>The wonder drug, although so I don't really call it

0:20:01.119 --> 0:20:04.200
<v Speaker 6>a drug because it ain't appeal. It is a plant,

0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:09.640
<v Speaker 6>thanks God. And so people are getting I'm not surprised

0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:14.120
<v Speaker 6>by this at all. People are getting incredible results from

0:20:14.119 --> 0:20:16.879
<v Speaker 6>it that they have not been able to see from

0:20:17.000 --> 0:20:18.440
<v Speaker 6>drugs from Big Farmer.

0:20:19.080 --> 0:20:21.080
<v Speaker 5>And it's interesting because this is.

0:20:21.080 --> 0:20:25.120
<v Speaker 6>At a time as well where legalized cannabis type parties

0:20:25.600 --> 0:20:29.520
<v Speaker 6>have got quite a foothold in nearly every state parliament now,

0:20:29.640 --> 0:20:31.800
<v Speaker 6>so it's an interesting.

0:20:31.400 --> 0:20:35.119
<v Speaker 3>Time and that they're using the popularity of medicinal cannabis

0:20:35.480 --> 0:20:39.000
<v Speaker 3>to make the case that cannabis should be legalized recreationally,

0:20:39.640 --> 0:20:43.800
<v Speaker 3>and that as medicinal cannabis is used so to the

0:20:43.920 --> 0:20:47.160
<v Speaker 3>acceptance of it in the general community is becoming more

0:20:47.200 --> 0:20:49.320
<v Speaker 3>important common This is not being lost on the green

0:20:49.680 --> 0:20:50.480
<v Speaker 3>or the cannabis part.

0:20:50.560 --> 0:20:53.920
<v Speaker 1>Ironically, early their use of medicinal cannabis, for the most part,

0:20:54.000 --> 0:20:55.840
<v Speaker 1>is meant to be in such a way that it

0:20:55.840 --> 0:20:58.160
<v Speaker 1>doesn't actually produce a high. You don't actually go high

0:20:58.160 --> 0:20:59.960
<v Speaker 1>for it, to which I think most people would say,

0:21:00.040 --> 0:21:03.199
<v Speaker 1>what's the full point? But yes, no, that is exactly

0:21:03.280 --> 0:21:07.360
<v Speaker 1>what's happening, and it is and it is. It's basically

0:21:07.400 --> 0:21:10.600
<v Speaker 1>just one party, which is the Legalized Cannabis Party, which

0:21:10.760 --> 0:21:14.080
<v Speaker 1>has done deals or is about to do deals. It

0:21:14.119 --> 0:21:16.919
<v Speaker 1>did a deal with Labor at the Queensland state election

0:21:17.080 --> 0:21:19.760
<v Speaker 1>and did very well and possibly help Labor win maybe

0:21:19.800 --> 0:21:22.120
<v Speaker 1>three seats it wouldn't have otherwise. Now, I no one

0:21:22.119 --> 0:21:25.240
<v Speaker 1>particularly cares if Stephen Miles wins government or not. Well,

0:21:25.440 --> 0:21:28.240
<v Speaker 1>no one wants him to win. But this does mean

0:21:28.240 --> 0:21:32.439
<v Speaker 1>that they could help Anthony Albanezi and Labor federally sneak

0:21:32.520 --> 0:21:35.199
<v Speaker 1>over the line. And more importantly, they give Labor an

0:21:35.280 --> 0:21:40.080
<v Speaker 1>option to shore up second preference votes from a minor

0:21:40.119 --> 0:21:45.040
<v Speaker 1>party that is not the Greens, and so Labor can

0:21:45.080 --> 0:21:48.440
<v Speaker 1>have as its first party of choice, its primary partnership

0:21:48.680 --> 0:21:51.520
<v Speaker 1>in the electorate where does a deal where it gives

0:21:51.680 --> 0:21:54.240
<v Speaker 1>two to that party above any others, it can have

0:21:54.320 --> 0:21:57.160
<v Speaker 1>that as the Legalized Cannabis Party and not the Greens.

0:21:57.200 --> 0:21:59.000
<v Speaker 1>And of course we all know Labor hates the Greens.

0:21:59.000 --> 0:22:00.919
<v Speaker 1>At the moment, the Greens are trying to destroy Labor.

0:22:01.119 --> 0:22:02.920
<v Speaker 1>It's never been more toxic. The Greens are a bunch

0:22:02.960 --> 0:22:06.360
<v Speaker 1>of extremist a holes and are doing just terrible, terrible things,

0:22:06.400 --> 0:22:09.679
<v Speaker 1>holding the country to ransom. So this, this deal with

0:22:09.840 --> 0:22:14.000
<v Speaker 1>legalized cannabis gives labor a huge, huge, huge sort of

0:22:14.080 --> 0:22:17.440
<v Speaker 1>I suppose shot in the arm if you're like where

0:22:17.520 --> 0:22:21.280
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't have to associate with people who are fundamentally crazy,

0:22:21.480 --> 0:22:24.679
<v Speaker 1>anti submitted extremists. Which is a long way of saying

0:22:25.280 --> 0:22:29.399
<v Speaker 1>that cannabis, the wonder drug, can not only you know,

0:22:29.560 --> 0:22:33.720
<v Speaker 1>help cure arthritis or other forms of chronic pain or

0:22:33.840 --> 0:22:36.440
<v Speaker 1>whatever islands or whatever whatever these things are, it can

0:22:36.520 --> 0:22:39.680
<v Speaker 1>also cure Australia from the Greens.

0:22:41.720 --> 0:22:42.320
<v Speaker 5>They're fixed.

0:22:43.160 --> 0:22:46.080
<v Speaker 1>It just gets rid of them.

0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:50.000
<v Speaker 3>You finally convince me if.

0:22:51.840 --> 0:22:53.919
<v Speaker 1>It does legalizing dope to get rid of the Greens,

0:22:54.040 --> 0:22:56.600
<v Speaker 1>I say, let it rain down, Let it rain down

0:22:56.640 --> 0:22:57.119
<v Speaker 1>from heaven.

0:22:57.280 --> 0:22:57.680
<v Speaker 2>I reckon.

0:22:57.680 --> 0:22:59.600
<v Speaker 3>You get a lot of support for that, Joe, if

0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:02.040
<v Speaker 3>only get find something to heal us from the ABC.

0:23:02.280 --> 0:23:05.080
<v Speaker 3>Kim Williams, the boss of the ABC, is in all

0:23:05.119 --> 0:23:08.960
<v Speaker 3>sorts over his criticism of the most popular podcaster in

0:23:09.000 --> 0:23:13.879
<v Speaker 3>the world, Rogan. He went nuclear on Joe Rogan, talking

0:23:13.920 --> 0:23:17.560
<v Speaker 3>about all sorts of descriptors of the podcast, and then

0:23:17.600 --> 0:23:21.400
<v Speaker 3>got surprised when people said he was completely divorced from

0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:24.320
<v Speaker 3>reality and out of touch. Just to remind you, here's

0:23:24.400 --> 0:23:27.520
<v Speaker 3>Kim Williams speaking at the Press Club. He was asked

0:23:27.560 --> 0:23:29.560
<v Speaker 3>what he thought about Joe Rogan and if maybe the

0:23:29.600 --> 0:23:32.720
<v Speaker 3>ABC could learn from Joe Rogan in order to boost

0:23:33.040 --> 0:23:34.480
<v Speaker 3>their influence in this country.

0:23:34.520 --> 0:23:35.240
<v Speaker 2>Here's what he said.

0:23:36.400 --> 0:23:41.920
<v Speaker 4>I personally find it deeply repulsive, and to think that

0:23:41.960 --> 0:23:48.879
<v Speaker 4>someone has such remarkable power in the United States is

0:23:48.960 --> 0:23:54.280
<v Speaker 4>something that I look at him disbelief. I'm also absolutely

0:23:55.240 --> 0:23:59.440
<v Speaker 4>in dismay that this can be a source of public

0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:04.720
<v Speaker 4>entertaining when it's really treating the public as plunder for

0:24:06.119 --> 0:24:08.840
<v Speaker 4>purposes that are really quite malevolent.

0:24:10.160 --> 0:24:14.080
<v Speaker 3>So he's talking about Joe Rogan, who is incredibly popular,

0:24:14.080 --> 0:24:16.800
<v Speaker 3>way more popular than the ABC will ever be, and

0:24:16.880 --> 0:24:17.920
<v Speaker 3>with nowhere near the.

0:24:17.880 --> 0:24:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Budget or the staff.

0:24:19.840 --> 0:24:23.920
<v Speaker 3>He's talking about Joe Rogan being a malevolent force in

0:24:24.000 --> 0:24:25.600
<v Speaker 3>the public discourse.

0:24:26.119 --> 0:24:27.680
<v Speaker 2>And he said all of that.

0:24:29.240 --> 0:24:32.280
<v Speaker 3>After he admitted he doesn't listen to Joe Rogan at all.

0:24:32.440 --> 0:24:35.439
<v Speaker 3>So how he came up with all those criticisms is

0:24:35.600 --> 0:24:39.479
<v Speaker 3>a mystery. Anyway, there was a massive pilon, of course,

0:24:39.640 --> 0:24:41.840
<v Speaker 3>because how out of touch could a man be? And

0:24:41.880 --> 0:24:44.560
<v Speaker 3>then he was surprised by the pylon here is talking

0:24:44.600 --> 0:24:45.359
<v Speaker 3>on radio today.

0:24:46.600 --> 0:24:50.040
<v Speaker 10>I might say I've been surprised since making that response

0:24:50.640 --> 0:24:54.919
<v Speaker 10>that there has been an astonishingly large pylon from people

0:24:55.000 --> 0:24:58.400
<v Speaker 10>saying that I was an embarrassment to Australia. I've been

0:24:58.440 --> 0:25:01.320
<v Speaker 10>accused of having a walk down look on life. I've

0:25:01.320 --> 0:25:06.520
<v Speaker 10>been accused of being unhinged. I've been threatened with I'm

0:25:06.640 --> 0:25:10.240
<v Speaker 10>staying in my lane. I find the reaction really out

0:25:10.280 --> 0:25:12.040
<v Speaker 10>of all proportion with what I said.

0:25:13.240 --> 0:25:15.880
<v Speaker 3>Well, if you are the boss of the ABC, then

0:25:16.200 --> 0:25:19.240
<v Speaker 3>what you say about media matters does tend to matter.

0:25:19.280 --> 0:25:22.879
<v Speaker 3>And especially when you say that someone who simply provides

0:25:23.080 --> 0:25:26.560
<v Speaker 3>plenty of opportunity for very powerful and well known people

0:25:27.119 --> 0:25:30.480
<v Speaker 3>to discuss their ideas and share them in a free

0:25:30.560 --> 0:25:35.280
<v Speaker 3>ranging conversation, when you call that malevolent, and when you

0:25:35.320 --> 0:25:38.120
<v Speaker 3>say that it's a terrible thing, then of course it's

0:25:38.160 --> 0:25:41.879
<v Speaker 3>going to make news. He's surprised Liz that people were

0:25:41.960 --> 0:25:43.480
<v Speaker 3>critical of him, which was.

0:25:43.600 --> 0:25:47.000
<v Speaker 6>Such a dumb move, because you're doubling down on these

0:25:47.040 --> 0:25:50.000
<v Speaker 6>accusations of people saying you are so out of touch

0:25:50.359 --> 0:25:52.840
<v Speaker 6>with the everyday person, and then you.

0:25:52.880 --> 0:25:55.040
<v Speaker 5>Go on radio the next day to be like.

0:25:55.119 --> 0:25:57.879
<v Speaker 6>I can't believe they think I'm out of touch, just

0:25:58.160 --> 0:26:02.040
<v Speaker 6>admit fold button. But if you're worried about Joe Rogan,

0:26:02.200 --> 0:26:06.359
<v Speaker 6>don't be. He tweeted today news of little Kim Williams

0:26:06.560 --> 0:26:12.520
<v Speaker 6>yacking these terrible remarks about him. Loll what that's how

0:26:12.600 --> 0:26:16.399
<v Speaker 6>much he cares. Lol, by the way means laugh out loud.

0:26:16.480 --> 0:26:19.000
<v Speaker 6>This is Joe's way of saying, I couldn't give a

0:26:19.119 --> 0:26:24.719
<v Speaker 6>rip mate and Elon Musk and also, incredibly, these are

0:26:24.760 --> 0:26:28.280
<v Speaker 6>probably the two of the most famous men on the

0:26:28.440 --> 0:26:32.320
<v Speaker 6>planet right now. Elon Musk then tweeted from the head

0:26:32.359 --> 0:26:37.720
<v Speaker 6>of Australian government media, they're Pravda. Pravda of course being

0:26:37.760 --> 0:26:41.960
<v Speaker 6>the Russian newspaper that was the official mouthpiece of the

0:26:42.000 --> 0:26:44.880
<v Speaker 6>Soviet Communist Party in Russia for.

0:26:44.960 --> 0:26:46.840
<v Speaker 5>Sixty nine years.

0:26:47.920 --> 0:26:48.800
<v Speaker 1>Kim Williams.

0:26:49.040 --> 0:26:52.800
<v Speaker 6>There was also other people laughing at Kim Williams on

0:26:52.840 --> 0:26:53.879
<v Speaker 6>social media today.

0:26:53.920 --> 0:26:56.520
<v Speaker 5>One of my favorites came from milk.

0:26:56.359 --> 0:27:00.400
<v Speaker 6>Bar TV, who said, oh, yes, well, Kim Williams. Joe

0:27:00.480 --> 0:27:05.719
<v Speaker 6>Rogan is so upholesev. I heard that he docted wartime

0:27:05.760 --> 0:27:07.360
<v Speaker 6>footage to make our.

0:27:07.320 --> 0:27:10.600
<v Speaker 5>Guys, our soldiers, Australian soldiers.

0:27:10.160 --> 0:27:13.360
<v Speaker 6>Look like they were committing war crimes. Overseas when they

0:27:13.440 --> 0:27:17.600
<v Speaker 6>really weren't. Oh whoops, Kim Williams, that was your lot, that.

0:27:17.600 --> 0:27:21.960
<v Speaker 5>Was the ABC. It really gets my goat Joe when

0:27:22.000 --> 0:27:24.680
<v Speaker 5>these tiny, tiny men.

0:27:25.119 --> 0:27:28.040
<v Speaker 6>Yap at the heels of titans, because when we're talking

0:27:28.040 --> 0:27:29.119
<v Speaker 6>about Joe Rogan, we're.

0:27:28.960 --> 0:27:30.960
<v Speaker 1>Talking about that's how I feel like has al.

0:27:30.880 --> 0:27:37.080
<v Speaker 6>Those twenty million subscribers on YouTube, almost fifteen million subscribers

0:27:37.119 --> 0:27:41.040
<v Speaker 6>on Spotify. Every single one of his episodes gets at

0:27:41.119 --> 0:27:46.040
<v Speaker 6>least eleven million eyeballs on it his podcast, Yes, and

0:27:46.080 --> 0:27:49.760
<v Speaker 6>then you've got Kim Williams being like he's just malevolent,

0:27:50.240 --> 0:27:55.160
<v Speaker 6>He's disgusting, and you're like, mate, like, what is going

0:27:55.240 --> 0:27:57.240
<v Speaker 6>on upstairs?

0:27:57.600 --> 0:27:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Well, I don't think this is the thing. Yeah, it

0:27:59.640 --> 0:28:03.200
<v Speaker 1>is high the ironic there's a home. All these people

0:28:03.200 --> 0:28:05.560
<v Speaker 1>calling me out of touch took me completely by surprise.

0:28:08.320 --> 0:28:10.800
<v Speaker 1>But I don't think I like Kim Williams. He was

0:28:10.840 --> 0:28:14.520
<v Speaker 1>a former CEO at News Corps and so it's strange

0:28:14.640 --> 0:28:16.960
<v Speaker 1>to see that's usually the sort of accusation that he's

0:28:17.000 --> 0:28:18.960
<v Speaker 1>making about Joe Rogan. That's the sort of thing that

0:28:19.000 --> 0:28:22.119
<v Speaker 1>people often say about Rupert Murdock can use him. This

0:28:22.280 --> 0:28:26.480
<v Speaker 1>is this man who's controlling everything, and he's ironically, I think,

0:28:26.520 --> 0:28:29.480
<v Speaker 1>falling for the same line that you know that people

0:28:29.560 --> 0:28:34.080
<v Speaker 1>aren't actually sentient beings that decide for themselves what they

0:28:34.119 --> 0:28:36.679
<v Speaker 1>want to read or watch or listen to, and that

0:28:36.680 --> 0:28:38.880
<v Speaker 1>they don't think for themselves and know what they like

0:28:38.960 --> 0:28:40.960
<v Speaker 1>and what they don't like, and what they believe and

0:28:41.040 --> 0:28:45.360
<v Speaker 1>don't believe. They're just somehow kind of formless blobs that

0:28:45.480 --> 0:28:51.400
<v Speaker 1>get molded into clo or agents of evil by these

0:28:51.600 --> 0:28:56.080
<v Speaker 1>evil sort of media proprietors or media performers, these puppet masters,

0:28:56.080 --> 0:28:58.000
<v Speaker 1>who tell them what to think because of course they're

0:28:58.040 --> 0:29:01.880
<v Speaker 1>so sluggish and dim witted and slow minded themselves they

0:29:01.920 --> 0:29:04.800
<v Speaker 1>couldn't possibly they couldn't possibly think for themselves. And it

0:29:05.000 --> 0:29:08.200
<v Speaker 1>is really interesting. I don't think Kim is doing it deliberately,

0:29:08.480 --> 0:29:12.160
<v Speaker 1>and clearly he hasn't realized clearly, I mean self evidently

0:29:12.200 --> 0:29:15.560
<v Speaker 1>he hasn't actually listened to much, if any, of Joe

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:17.440
<v Speaker 1>Rogan podcast. And that's fair enough because they're about three

0:29:17.520 --> 0:29:20.560
<v Speaker 1>hours long, right, But you know, Joe Rogan, we're talking

0:29:20.560 --> 0:29:23.840
<v Speaker 1>about this still marijuana. Joe Rogan to Stoner. Joe Rogan

0:29:23.920 --> 0:29:26.160
<v Speaker 1>sits around with his mates, some of whom happened to

0:29:26.160 --> 0:29:28.800
<v Speaker 1>be billionaires or the most the rich and famous, and

0:29:28.840 --> 0:29:30.680
<v Speaker 1>they just they just shoot the ship. They just talk

0:29:30.720 --> 0:29:32.800
<v Speaker 1>about whatever, and so they go down all these rabbit

0:29:32.840 --> 0:29:35.080
<v Speaker 1>holes and people call them conspiracy theories or whatever. Oh

0:29:35.160 --> 0:29:38.160
<v Speaker 1>my god, that's dangerous, but none of it's actually malevolent.

0:29:38.240 --> 0:29:40.440
<v Speaker 1>They're just they're just sitting there kind of Isn't.

0:29:40.200 --> 0:29:44.080
<v Speaker 3>That why people like Kim Williams, who are in charge

0:29:44.120 --> 0:29:47.080
<v Speaker 3>of you know what they call the legacy media organizations,

0:29:47.400 --> 0:29:50.360
<v Speaker 3>are so offended by the very presence of Joe Rogan

0:29:50.480 --> 0:29:54.480
<v Speaker 3>on the media landscape because he's got this huge audience.

0:29:54.560 --> 0:29:56.800
<v Speaker 3>I feel on his qualifications. He used to be involved

0:29:56.800 --> 0:30:01.040
<v Speaker 3>in World Federation wrestling. It's like, who's this guy? Usc, Yeah,

0:30:01.120 --> 0:30:01.760
<v Speaker 3>World Federation?

0:30:01.880 --> 0:30:03.760
<v Speaker 1>That was Donald Trump, sorry as it was.

0:30:05.000 --> 0:30:05.840
<v Speaker 2>You've got Kim Williams.

0:30:05.880 --> 0:30:09.880
<v Speaker 3>He's got a one point something billion dollar but obviously

0:30:10.200 --> 0:30:11.120
<v Speaker 3>very traditional.

0:30:11.240 --> 0:30:13.760
<v Speaker 1>He's a classical penist, I believe, and then he was

0:30:13.760 --> 0:30:15.240
<v Speaker 1>in charge of Fox Tail. I did a great job

0:30:15.280 --> 0:30:17.880
<v Speaker 1>here in the news court and stuff. But again I

0:30:17.880 --> 0:30:20.680
<v Speaker 1>think you're just looking at something else and you don't

0:30:20.760 --> 0:30:23.560
<v Speaker 1>understand it, and you think, oh my god, this is terrifying.

0:30:23.680 --> 0:30:25.960
<v Speaker 3>So rather than colonize, maybe try and learn something it

0:30:26.000 --> 0:30:28.400
<v Speaker 3>might help the ABC with ratings, although he also said

0:30:28.400 --> 0:30:31.400
<v Speaker 3>in that address that ratings don't really matter.

0:30:31.680 --> 0:30:33.200
<v Speaker 2>That The irony, of course is, isn't it.

0:30:33.400 --> 0:30:36.680
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, because your taxpayer funded, you don't have to deliver

0:30:36.760 --> 0:30:39.720
<v Speaker 6>on any KPIs, you won't get the boot. We're used

0:30:39.760 --> 0:30:42.960
<v Speaker 6>to the ABC sucking, so you keep that up while

0:30:43.080 --> 0:30:46.520
<v Speaker 6>sucking up one point two billion dollars worth of taxpayer

0:30:46.560 --> 0:30:49.480
<v Speaker 6>money and asking for more, which he also did at

0:30:49.520 --> 0:30:50.800
<v Speaker 6>the Press Club yesterday.

0:30:51.200 --> 0:30:53.800
<v Speaker 5>How pathetic.

0:30:54.920 --> 0:30:58.280
<v Speaker 2>Exactly so not a fan, not a fan, he wants

0:30:58.320 --> 0:30:58.720
<v Speaker 2>more money.

0:30:58.720 --> 0:31:01.080
<v Speaker 3>I tell you what who when I'm a fan of either,

0:31:01.120 --> 0:31:03.720
<v Speaker 3>and that is Senator Lydia Thorpe.

0:31:03.760 --> 0:31:04.960
<v Speaker 2>But we better talk.

0:31:04.800 --> 0:31:07.840
<v Speaker 3>About her antics in the Senate because of course they've

0:31:07.840 --> 0:31:12.000
<v Speaker 3>made headlines, oh the country. She was, of course suspended

0:31:12.040 --> 0:31:15.640
<v Speaker 3>for a couple of days because she tore into pieces

0:31:16.040 --> 0:31:19.800
<v Speaker 3>a Senate motion, threw it into Pauline Hanson's face, and

0:31:19.840 --> 0:31:23.040
<v Speaker 3>then flicked Senator Hanson the bird as she left the chamber.

0:31:23.160 --> 0:31:25.880
<v Speaker 3>So suspended for a couple of days, but she'd only

0:31:25.880 --> 0:31:29.160
<v Speaker 3>been suspended for five minutes before already the talk was

0:31:29.520 --> 0:31:32.400
<v Speaker 3>do we think she'll stay away or will she violate

0:31:32.480 --> 0:31:36.840
<v Speaker 3>the suspension and indeed, as predicted, she did. She appeared

0:31:36.840 --> 0:31:39.440
<v Speaker 3>in the press gallery. And here's what happened.

0:31:40.720 --> 0:31:43.040
<v Speaker 5>Ray Palist I called a clerk.

0:31:46.520 --> 0:31:47.400
<v Speaker 2>I called a clerk.

0:31:49.000 --> 0:31:52.680
<v Speaker 3>Now, she was suspended from the Chambert because she was

0:31:52.720 --> 0:31:54.920
<v Speaker 3>accusing Pauline Hansen of racism.

0:31:54.960 --> 0:31:56.760
<v Speaker 2>We'll get to that in a moment. But then she

0:31:56.840 --> 0:31:57.760
<v Speaker 2>comes back.

0:31:57.560 --> 0:32:01.120
<v Speaker 3>In the day of her first suspension and she's yelling

0:32:01.160 --> 0:32:02.040
<v Speaker 3>for Palestine.

0:32:02.360 --> 0:32:07.640
<v Speaker 6>What on earth doesn't exactly a peck acause lady.

0:32:08.800 --> 0:32:11.800
<v Speaker 1>What comes? It's like when brain damage. People just want

0:32:11.840 --> 0:32:13.800
<v Speaker 1>to make a noise. They just want to make her sound,

0:32:15.160 --> 0:32:17.720
<v Speaker 1>but they don't actually know what to say. They don't

0:32:17.760 --> 0:32:19.480
<v Speaker 1>have anything to say. No, but she is that she's

0:32:19.520 --> 0:32:22.720
<v Speaker 1>clearly impaired, and so she just starts chanting, I don't

0:32:22.720 --> 0:32:24.120
<v Speaker 1>want free Palestine.

0:32:24.320 --> 0:32:25.360
<v Speaker 2>This is a crazy thing.

0:32:25.760 --> 0:32:29.040
<v Speaker 3>Like they put security guards, I believe reading the media

0:32:29.040 --> 0:32:31.920
<v Speaker 3>reports today at the doors of the Senate chamber. Yeah,

0:32:31.960 --> 0:32:35.560
<v Speaker 3>we'll try to prevent her use of them. You've got

0:32:35.600 --> 0:32:38.240
<v Speaker 3>a senator who needs to be She.

0:32:38.680 --> 0:32:42.120
<v Speaker 6>Got into the press gallery anyway, So I'm like, seriously,

0:32:42.680 --> 0:32:45.440
<v Speaker 6>were you not paying attention yesterday when she was suspended

0:32:45.480 --> 0:32:47.240
<v Speaker 6>and you just let her in the doors or where

0:32:47.240 --> 0:32:50.680
<v Speaker 6>You're like oh well, the press gallery isn't exactly the chamber,

0:32:50.760 --> 0:32:51.840
<v Speaker 6>although it is in the.

0:32:51.840 --> 0:32:53.040
<v Speaker 5>Exact same room.

0:32:53.720 --> 0:32:57.440
<v Speaker 6>But of course she made even her suspension about the

0:32:57.560 --> 0:33:01.360
<v Speaker 6>fact the Parliament was just being racist and treating her

0:33:01.600 --> 0:33:04.600
<v Speaker 6>like a naughty little black girl.

0:33:04.960 --> 0:33:09.200
<v Speaker 11>It seems like there's one rule for white people who

0:33:09.200 --> 0:33:12.240
<v Speaker 11>get away with racism, and there's one rule for us

0:33:12.480 --> 0:33:15.640
<v Speaker 11>when we call that out, we're the ones that are

0:33:15.680 --> 0:33:18.640
<v Speaker 11>the naughty little black girl.

0:33:18.720 --> 0:33:24.640
<v Speaker 6>Again, she really seemed to have a theme during this address,

0:33:24.760 --> 0:33:27.280
<v Speaker 6>the first of its kind following her suspension.

0:33:27.600 --> 0:33:29.480
<v Speaker 5>See if you can pick up on what that theme

0:33:29.560 --> 0:33:30.080
<v Speaker 5>might have been.

0:33:31.040 --> 0:33:34.440
<v Speaker 11>You know, I'll do what it takes to stamp out racism.

0:33:34.640 --> 0:33:39.280
<v Speaker 11>We need to stand up to racism, inquiry into racism,

0:33:39.320 --> 0:33:45.240
<v Speaker 11>in stamping out racism, anti racism, training, discussing racism.

0:33:45.560 --> 0:33:49.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, we'll get right on that. Love. I mean that interview, she.

0:33:49.840 --> 0:33:52.400
<v Speaker 3>Spoke for four minutes and thirty seconds. She used the

0:33:52.440 --> 0:33:56.600
<v Speaker 3>word racism or racist seventeen times, which is once every

0:33:56.760 --> 0:34:01.280
<v Speaker 3>fifteen seconds. And this is all because Senator Pauline Hansen

0:34:01.480 --> 0:34:04.880
<v Speaker 3>dared to ask a question about the eligibility of fatima

0:34:04.960 --> 0:34:09.880
<v Speaker 3>payment because she's got dual citizenship. The same question that

0:34:09.960 --> 0:34:12.600
<v Speaker 3>was asked of Barnaby Joyce. This is what the time ago.

0:34:12.640 --> 0:34:16.840
<v Speaker 2>It's not racists what I'm saying. Someone is eligible based

0:34:16.880 --> 0:34:18.879
<v Speaker 2>on their capacity.

0:34:19.360 --> 0:34:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Like she's she is not functional, She's she's clearly not

0:34:23.520 --> 0:34:26.399
<v Speaker 1>a functioning human being. I honestly, I'm not the first

0:34:26.400 --> 0:34:31.480
<v Speaker 1>person to raise concerns about her the status of her mind.

0:34:32.640 --> 0:34:34.880
<v Speaker 1>She's like, she's either I mean, I'm pretty crazy myself,

0:34:34.920 --> 0:34:37.399
<v Speaker 1>I being too kind, Maybe I am maybe I'm being kind.

0:34:37.480 --> 0:34:38.959
<v Speaker 2>She is exactly what she's doing.

0:34:39.040 --> 0:34:41.840
<v Speaker 1>How many, like, how many other indigenous senators felt the

0:34:41.920 --> 0:34:44.280
<v Speaker 1>need to rip up bits of paper and flip.

0:34:44.480 --> 0:34:45.920
<v Speaker 2>Many Indigenous senators?

0:34:46.160 --> 0:34:49.280
<v Speaker 1>How many non indigenous? How many? How many white senators

0:34:49.840 --> 0:34:53.360
<v Speaker 1>ripped up some emotion someone else's motion, flipped the bird

0:34:53.560 --> 0:34:56.239
<v Speaker 1>to the other senators in the chamber and had no

0:34:56.320 --> 0:35:01.040
<v Speaker 1>action taken against them. So where the double like? And

0:35:01.520 --> 0:35:04.480
<v Speaker 1>she's manufacturing this double standard? And again it is like

0:35:04.880 --> 0:35:07.600
<v Speaker 1>that there is there is some form of malfunction in

0:35:07.680 --> 0:35:11.279
<v Speaker 1>the brain seeing things that are not there. It might yeah,

0:35:11.280 --> 0:35:13.880
<v Speaker 1>it might be like borderline personality disorder. It might be

0:35:14.000 --> 0:35:18.560
<v Speaker 1>delusions of grandeur. But there is something just so wrong.

0:35:18.640 --> 0:35:22.439
<v Speaker 3>Why is she not completely disowned by all the key

0:35:22.520 --> 0:35:25.000
<v Speaker 3>Indigenous voices in this country and in the parliament. That's

0:35:25.000 --> 0:35:27.320
<v Speaker 3>the question I always ask, where are all the Indigenous

0:35:27.320 --> 0:35:29.560
<v Speaker 3>people saying this woman does not represent us?

0:35:29.560 --> 0:35:31.000
<v Speaker 2>She did as a scrap.

0:35:34.040 --> 0:35:37.840
<v Speaker 1>Extremist activists of her ilk who are again completely and

0:35:37.960 --> 0:35:42.160
<v Speaker 1>utterly deluded, who who want a revolution or a civil

0:35:42.160 --> 0:35:44.759
<v Speaker 1>war or just love I just love the chance, you know,

0:35:44.840 --> 0:35:47.000
<v Speaker 1>they just rock. I'm here for the chance. And those

0:35:47.000 --> 0:35:49.279
<v Speaker 1>sorts of people will end up backing her in or

0:35:49.360 --> 0:35:51.560
<v Speaker 1>just not saying anything. And then I think there are

0:35:51.600 --> 0:35:54.680
<v Speaker 1>other people who have come out and said she's an embarrassment.

0:35:54.680 --> 0:35:57.880
<v Speaker 1>She's an embarrassment to indigenous scores. She helped sink the voice,

0:35:57.920 --> 0:35:58.600
<v Speaker 1>which I.

0:35:58.640 --> 0:36:01.719
<v Speaker 3>Think she's useful to the call because she's so extreme.

0:36:02.239 --> 0:36:08.280
<v Speaker 2>She makes other requests seem reason.

0:36:09.440 --> 0:36:12.960
<v Speaker 1>To the conservative cause because they look at her, she's

0:36:13.000 --> 0:36:15.959
<v Speaker 1>what all activists look like, and in many cases they're

0:36:15.960 --> 0:36:16.359
<v Speaker 1>not wrong.

0:36:16.640 --> 0:36:17.680
<v Speaker 2>We're going to go to a break.

0:36:17.719 --> 0:36:19.760
<v Speaker 3>When we come back, we'll look at what's making news tomorrow,

0:36:19.880 --> 0:36:23.399
<v Speaker 3>including a new South Wales school slammed after students were

0:36:23.440 --> 0:36:26.480
<v Speaker 3>asked sexually explicit questions in the classroom.

0:36:26.520 --> 0:36:31.560
<v Speaker 2>That's coming up in a moment. Welcome back.

0:36:31.600 --> 0:36:33.759
<v Speaker 3>Let's take a look at What's Making News tomorrow. We'll

0:36:33.760 --> 0:36:37.000
<v Speaker 3>start with a really disturbing story in the Newcastle Herald.

0:36:37.520 --> 0:36:42.640
<v Speaker 3>The headline reads porn fan fiction, sex ed material in spotlight.

0:36:43.120 --> 0:36:47.040
<v Speaker 3>Another story of students at school being exposed to sexually

0:36:47.080 --> 0:36:51.520
<v Speaker 3>explicit material without their parents' knowledge, let alone consent. A

0:36:51.600 --> 0:36:54.960
<v Speaker 3>Hunter School is under fire over its choice of material

0:36:55.040 --> 0:36:58.560
<v Speaker 3>to help teach sex health in the classroom.

0:36:58.880 --> 0:36:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Now.

0:36:59.600 --> 0:37:05.920
<v Speaker 3>The book contained questions asking kids to brainstorm listing as

0:37:05.960 --> 0:37:10.279
<v Speaker 3>many sex acts as they could possibly think of, and

0:37:10.320 --> 0:37:13.440
<v Speaker 3>then after that they were asked to list the sex

0:37:13.600 --> 0:37:17.040
<v Speaker 3>acts they look forward to trying, the ones they're not

0:37:17.239 --> 0:37:20.760
<v Speaker 3>sure about, and the ones that they definitely don't want

0:37:20.880 --> 0:37:23.520
<v Speaker 3>to do. So, just to be clear, the kids were

0:37:23.520 --> 0:37:26.960
<v Speaker 3>put into groups. They had to brainstorm what sex actually

0:37:27.000 --> 0:37:29.880
<v Speaker 3>aware of, what would you like to try? And then

0:37:30.040 --> 0:37:34.040
<v Speaker 3>there was discussion. Parents, of course, are outraged because they

0:37:34.080 --> 0:37:37.120
<v Speaker 3>didn't know this was happening, They certainly didn't give consent

0:37:37.440 --> 0:37:38.880
<v Speaker 3>for it, and.

0:37:39.080 --> 0:37:42.360
<v Speaker 2>The school was slow to respond.

0:37:43.680 --> 0:37:47.520
<v Speaker 3>It begs the question what happens to teachers who have

0:37:47.640 --> 0:37:51.000
<v Speaker 3>these kinds of discussions in the classroom without parents consent?

0:37:51.040 --> 0:37:53.920
<v Speaker 3>Because if I had that discussion with some kid at

0:37:53.920 --> 0:37:57.239
<v Speaker 3>a shopping center, it would be hell to pay. And

0:37:57.320 --> 0:38:00.719
<v Speaker 3>it's before the police were called. You stand in a

0:38:00.760 --> 0:38:02.959
<v Speaker 3>classroom at a public school. This wasn't a public school.

0:38:03.000 --> 0:38:05.880
<v Speaker 3>This is a private school, I should say, and somehow

0:38:05.880 --> 0:38:07.120
<v Speaker 3>it Yeah.

0:38:06.960 --> 0:38:09.399
<v Speaker 1>Even with public schools and private schools, the problem always

0:38:09.400 --> 0:38:11.680
<v Speaker 1>seems to be is they get these people in from outside,

0:38:11.719 --> 0:38:15.000
<v Speaker 1>these experts in, and they tend to be the one

0:38:15.400 --> 0:38:16.960
<v Speaker 1>within the actual school.

0:38:17.000 --> 0:38:18.960
<v Speaker 2>You still have a duty of kids.

0:38:18.719 --> 0:38:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely acutely right, and the school absolutely is responsible. But

0:38:23.080 --> 0:38:25.279
<v Speaker 1>this seems to be the problem that is happening is

0:38:25.280 --> 0:38:27.560
<v Speaker 1>but where they're getting these people from outside and then

0:38:27.560 --> 0:38:30.920
<v Speaker 1>they're coming in with all these crazy whackamami ideas. I mean,

0:38:30.920 --> 0:38:33.239
<v Speaker 1>if you know, if you want someone to talk about

0:38:33.239 --> 0:38:34.799
<v Speaker 1>all the sex they don't want to have, just get

0:38:34.800 --> 0:38:36.239
<v Speaker 1>my wife to come in there and have talk to

0:38:36.280 --> 0:38:36.760
<v Speaker 1>the kids.

0:38:36.920 --> 0:38:39.160
<v Speaker 5>But this is utterly disgusting.

0:38:39.360 --> 0:38:42.960
<v Speaker 6>I mean, year ten, so these kids are what fifteen

0:38:43.040 --> 0:38:43.600
<v Speaker 6>years old?

0:38:44.239 --> 0:38:47.359
<v Speaker 5>Fifteen years old. You can't even legally have.

0:38:47.520 --> 0:38:51.120
<v Speaker 6>Sex at fifteen years old, So what are you doing

0:38:51.600 --> 0:38:55.360
<v Speaker 6>inspiring them with all these different sex acts and getting

0:38:55.440 --> 0:38:58.000
<v Speaker 6>them to basically rate them in order of the ones

0:38:58.040 --> 0:38:59.120
<v Speaker 6>that they want to try.

0:38:59.560 --> 0:39:04.319
<v Speaker 5>We've got pedophiles in the school. Room here. No, seriously, who.

0:39:03.840 --> 0:39:07.520
<v Speaker 6>What adult in their right mind thinks this is appropriate

0:39:07.680 --> 0:39:10.000
<v Speaker 6>when it's just you the teacher in the room and

0:39:10.040 --> 0:39:13.839
<v Speaker 6>a pile of students And what's really galling about this is.

0:39:13.800 --> 0:39:15.360
<v Speaker 5>His The response from the school.

0:39:15.719 --> 0:39:19.759
<v Speaker 6>Hunter Valley Grammar School principal Rebecca Butterworth says the material

0:39:20.120 --> 0:39:21.520
<v Speaker 6>in the workbook is.

0:39:21.440 --> 0:39:24.520
<v Speaker 5>Aligned with age appropriate lessons.

0:39:25.640 --> 0:39:30.040
<v Speaker 6>Okay Butterworth, let's see your head roll next, because that's

0:39:30.080 --> 0:39:34.400
<v Speaker 6>not true and the parents certainly don't agree with you. God,

0:39:34.520 --> 0:39:37.520
<v Speaker 6>i'd be ropable to the front page of the Australian

0:39:37.719 --> 0:39:43.040
<v Speaker 6>Now SeaBus scandal. I'm so sorry, says Swanen. This is

0:39:43.160 --> 0:39:47.600
<v Speaker 6>the death payment saga. You will recall, SeaBus chairman, when

0:39:47.760 --> 0:39:53.000
<v Speaker 6>Swann has apologized unreservedly for the excessive delay in paying

0:39:53.160 --> 0:39:57.279
<v Speaker 6>millions in payments to grieving families and disabled people in

0:39:57.320 --> 0:40:03.160
<v Speaker 6>an extraordinary address to the ninety four billion dollars superannuation giants.

0:40:03.560 --> 0:40:04.520
<v Speaker 5>And you will.

0:40:04.920 --> 0:40:08.440
<v Speaker 6>Meeting this of course, as the article goes on to say,

0:40:08.800 --> 0:40:11.040
<v Speaker 6>and I will speculate this is why.

0:40:10.880 --> 0:40:12.080
<v Speaker 5>He's saying sorry now.

0:40:12.520 --> 0:40:16.000
<v Speaker 6>It's as he faces questioning in Parliament on Friday over

0:40:16.040 --> 0:40:19.319
<v Speaker 6>the ten thousand SeaBus members and claimants whose death and

0:40:19.360 --> 0:40:22.520
<v Speaker 6>disability insurance claims we're delaid for twelve.

0:40:22.200 --> 0:40:23.240
<v Speaker 5>Months or more.

0:40:23.480 --> 0:40:27.120
<v Speaker 6>Mister Swan apologized for the fund's latest scandal, but stood

0:40:27.160 --> 0:40:30.680
<v Speaker 6>by a raft of new board members source from the

0:40:30.920 --> 0:40:34.840
<v Speaker 6>controversial CFFMEU, Well, I'm sure they'll be better than the

0:40:34.920 --> 0:40:37.560
<v Speaker 6>last ones who came from the same source.

0:40:37.800 --> 0:40:39.200
<v Speaker 5>But sure, Okay.

0:40:39.360 --> 0:40:41.200
<v Speaker 3>What made me laugh about this article is it says

0:40:41.280 --> 0:40:45.080
<v Speaker 3>the apology was mister Swan's strongest statement yet on the

0:40:45.200 --> 0:40:48.040
<v Speaker 3>death three payments saga, and I thought, sorry, it would

0:40:48.080 --> 0:40:51.319
<v Speaker 3>have been the first thing you would say, the strongest yet.

0:40:51.400 --> 0:40:54.200
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember last night we talked about how to

0:40:54.239 --> 0:40:58.239
<v Speaker 1>handle a crisis? Peter mallanows, because yes, you're absolutely right.

0:40:58.280 --> 0:40:59.960
<v Speaker 1>It is absolutely terrible and we're not going to do

0:40:59.960 --> 0:41:03.480
<v Speaker 1>it and be the head of Jaguar saying what do

0:41:03.520 --> 0:41:05.799
<v Speaker 1>you mean This ad with no cars and all these

0:41:05.840 --> 0:41:09.319
<v Speaker 1>gender neutral, weird people with strange kind of hair is

0:41:09.760 --> 0:41:12.960
<v Speaker 1>a good idea. We think it's genius. But again, this

0:41:13.000 --> 0:41:14.640
<v Speaker 1>has been on the front page of The Eyes for

0:41:14.719 --> 0:41:18.680
<v Speaker 1>a week now or thereabouts. And Wayne Swine, you would

0:41:18.680 --> 0:41:21.640
<v Speaker 1>think with someone who had the nouse of a former treasurer,

0:41:21.960 --> 0:41:25.840
<v Speaker 1>a very well seasoned politician or you know, elbowed his

0:41:25.920 --> 0:41:28.759
<v Speaker 1>way up through the Labor Party in the awe what

0:41:29.120 --> 0:41:31.000
<v Speaker 1>and could have you know, you could have just nipped

0:41:31.000 --> 0:41:33.600
<v Speaker 1>this in the bud on day one. You still have

0:41:33.719 --> 0:41:36.200
<v Speaker 1>the same thing. You still have to make your unreserved apology.

0:41:36.800 --> 0:41:39.279
<v Speaker 1>And so yeah, you haven't actually won any kind of

0:41:39.360 --> 0:41:41.879
<v Speaker 1>political skin. You haven't say any political skin. All you've

0:41:41.880 --> 0:41:44.000
<v Speaker 1>done is given yourself a week of hell that you

0:41:44.000 --> 0:41:46.520
<v Speaker 1>didn't need. I just find it very strange he didn't

0:41:46.560 --> 0:41:49.360
<v Speaker 1>just come out straight away yet. Absolutely we're going to

0:41:49.440 --> 0:41:51.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, root and branch review to make sure this

0:41:51.520 --> 0:41:52.200
<v Speaker 1>never happens again.

0:41:52.280 --> 0:41:55.160
<v Speaker 6>Ter At this point those affected would be like, mate,

0:41:55.160 --> 0:41:56.759
<v Speaker 6>you can stuff your apology.

0:41:56.800 --> 0:41:58.920
<v Speaker 5>It took you this long for a simple sorry.

0:41:59.239 --> 0:42:02.120
<v Speaker 1>The apology didn't not take as long as the death

0:42:02.160 --> 0:42:05.839
<v Speaker 1>payments did to drive to the greeting families. How's that

0:42:05.880 --> 0:42:07.080
<v Speaker 1>going from?

0:42:07.360 --> 0:42:09.600
<v Speaker 6>Oh my gosh, If that's what we're trying for to

0:42:09.680 --> 0:42:11.160
<v Speaker 6>talk him back up, it's.

0:42:11.080 --> 0:42:11.640
<v Speaker 5>A low bar.

0:42:12.120 --> 0:42:14.080
<v Speaker 6>Also on the front page of the Oars, a rock

0:42:14.200 --> 0:42:19.600
<v Speaker 6>shock Parts Parts boss goes Hope climbs the Allen government's

0:42:19.680 --> 0:42:23.960
<v Speaker 6>destruction of the state's globally significant rock climbing industry over

0:42:24.040 --> 0:42:27.719
<v Speaker 6>cultural Heritage Bands has cost the Parts Victoria boss his

0:42:27.880 --> 0:42:32.360
<v Speaker 6>job and forced an independent review into the organization's failures

0:42:32.400 --> 0:42:36.680
<v Speaker 6>and future. For five years, Parks Victoria chief executive Matthew

0:42:36.760 --> 0:42:42.440
<v Speaker 6>Jackson rubber stamped a secretive process that destroyed Victoria's reputation

0:42:42.520 --> 0:42:45.800
<v Speaker 6>as a world destination for rock climbing and pitted First

0:42:45.920 --> 0:42:49.840
<v Speaker 6>Nations people against outdoors enthusiasts.

0:42:49.960 --> 0:42:52.040
<v Speaker 5>Now the Environment Minister.

0:42:52.360 --> 0:42:56.319
<v Speaker 6>Steve Demopolis is acting all embarrassed over this, but I

0:42:56.360 --> 0:43:01.160
<v Speaker 6>don't buy that for a second. This is exactly the

0:43:01.280 --> 0:43:05.280
<v Speaker 6>kind of move that this Victorian government would have rubber

0:43:05.360 --> 0:43:08.200
<v Speaker 6>stamped themselves had it been up to them.

0:43:08.360 --> 0:43:09.680
<v Speaker 5>Let's not kid ourselves.

0:43:09.920 --> 0:43:11.319
<v Speaker 1>If it had it worked out, they would have been

0:43:11.320 --> 0:43:15.080
<v Speaker 1>claiming complete responsibility for it. Exactly the fact that it

0:43:15.120 --> 0:43:19.360
<v Speaker 1>was a complete shambolet disaster leads its blank and you

0:43:19.400 --> 0:43:21.040
<v Speaker 1>know it doesn't even notice the bullet in the back

0:43:21.040 --> 0:43:23.560
<v Speaker 1>of his head as he's jumping to the sharks. Let's

0:43:23.600 --> 0:43:26.440
<v Speaker 1>get to the Townsville bulletin now, because this is, without

0:43:26.480 --> 0:43:30.000
<v Speaker 1>a doubt, my favorite story in the country. Yes, he's

0:43:30.120 --> 0:43:33.640
<v Speaker 1>back the mayor of Townsville, where he belongs on the

0:43:33.640 --> 0:43:35.840
<v Speaker 1>front page of the board. And when I say he's back.

0:43:38.239 --> 0:43:40.000
<v Speaker 2>Left there all along.

0:43:40.880 --> 0:43:43.080
<v Speaker 1>This is just a great one. So as we know,

0:43:43.160 --> 0:43:45.480
<v Speaker 1>we told you last night, this guy's is pulling in

0:43:45.520 --> 0:43:47.799
<v Speaker 1>more than seventy grand a year to do nothing, to

0:43:47.880 --> 0:43:53.239
<v Speaker 1>just be suspended while he's investigated for his various allegedly

0:43:53.239 --> 0:43:57.359
<v Speaker 1>misleading the allegedly misleading the voters and his counselors and

0:43:57.400 --> 0:43:59.600
<v Speaker 1>the council and the rate pay to everyone. But I

0:43:59.760 --> 0:44:03.440
<v Speaker 1>just have the headline here explosive spray over mayors paid

0:44:03.640 --> 0:44:08.200
<v Speaker 1>holiday falsifier must go. Doesn't that have a just a

0:44:08.239 --> 0:44:12.160
<v Speaker 1>great kind of tent pole Baptist evangelical zeal about it?

0:44:16.040 --> 0:44:22.520
<v Speaker 1>Command you leave this moder butter your evil leagion and brethren.

0:44:22.600 --> 0:44:27.399
<v Speaker 3>On the other side, the people demanding that the false,

0:44:28.400 --> 0:44:32.120
<v Speaker 3>the people demanding the falsified must go. In the tent

0:44:32.200 --> 0:44:36.480
<v Speaker 3>pentecostal meeting that you are reenacting is the state opposition,

0:44:36.600 --> 0:44:38.840
<v Speaker 3>which just a couple of weeks ago, were the state

0:44:38.960 --> 0:44:43.920
<v Speaker 3>government decided even Miles could have done this, his government

0:44:43.960 --> 0:44:46.680
<v Speaker 3>could have done a couple of weeks ago. Now you

0:44:46.719 --> 0:44:49.960
<v Speaker 3>guys should have sacked him rather than keeping him on

0:44:49.960 --> 0:44:52.080
<v Speaker 3>on paidgation.

0:44:53.880 --> 0:44:54.560
<v Speaker 1>Misleader.

0:44:54.640 --> 0:45:01.080
<v Speaker 3>And on that note, we go to a break.

0:45:01.080 --> 0:45:02.160
<v Speaker 2>But when we come back.

0:45:02.640 --> 0:45:06.920
<v Speaker 3>A person investigated by the police for a hate crime

0:45:07.040 --> 0:45:10.360
<v Speaker 3>and what did they do played a Bob Marley record.

0:45:10.480 --> 0:45:11.520
<v Speaker 2>It's coming up in a moment.

0:45:14.320 --> 0:45:16.359
<v Speaker 3>Just when you thought the British police couldn't get any

0:45:16.400 --> 0:45:20.160
<v Speaker 3>more ridiculous with their investigation of hate crimes, it gets

0:45:20.280 --> 0:45:23.120
<v Speaker 3>more ridiculous. You remember last week we talked about a

0:45:23.160 --> 0:45:25.680
<v Speaker 3>couple of nine year olds who were investigated by police

0:45:26.120 --> 0:45:28.520
<v Speaker 3>after the school reported they were calling each other retard

0:45:28.600 --> 0:45:31.879
<v Speaker 3>in the playground. Another kid was investigated when she said

0:45:31.880 --> 0:45:35.160
<v Speaker 3>that her friend smelt like fish. Police were called to

0:45:35.520 --> 0:45:39.600
<v Speaker 3>investigate at the primary school. Well, it gets even more

0:45:39.680 --> 0:45:43.560
<v Speaker 3>ridiculous than that. Can you believe it? Two neighbors had

0:45:43.600 --> 0:45:46.640
<v Speaker 3>been at each other for quite a while, squabbling over

0:45:47.080 --> 0:45:48.839
<v Speaker 3>things that neighbors squabble over.

0:45:48.880 --> 0:45:50.800
<v Speaker 2>One was white, one was black.

0:45:51.160 --> 0:45:54.160
<v Speaker 3>Well, the white neighbor decided to play some reggae music,

0:45:54.239 --> 0:45:58.000
<v Speaker 3>some Bob Marley music. The black neighbor took a fence,

0:45:58.400 --> 0:46:00.799
<v Speaker 3>saying the only reason the white neighbor was playing Bob

0:46:00.840 --> 0:46:04.520
<v Speaker 3>Marley was to mock her for the fact that she

0:46:04.680 --> 0:46:05.080
<v Speaker 3>was black.

0:46:05.160 --> 0:46:06.120
<v Speaker 2>She called the police.

0:46:06.520 --> 0:46:10.399
<v Speaker 3>The police arrived at a big investigation and recorded a

0:46:10.520 --> 0:46:15.000
<v Speaker 3>non crime hate incident had been committed.

0:46:15.040 --> 0:46:16.600
<v Speaker 2>If you were going to taunt your.

0:46:16.520 --> 0:46:19.480
<v Speaker 3>Neighbor, the last thing you would play is Bob Marley,

0:46:19.480 --> 0:46:22.640
<v Speaker 3>because everyone knows when you play Bob Marley, everything's going

0:46:22.680 --> 0:46:39.360
<v Speaker 3>to be all right. Mocking your black neighbor, that's paying

0:46:39.400 --> 0:46:44.720
<v Speaker 3>tribute to black culture and black music, Bob Marley.

0:46:45.520 --> 0:46:51.200
<v Speaker 1>A white woman playing reggae, playing Bob Marley. If she

0:46:51.280 --> 0:46:53.279
<v Speaker 1>was really into reggae, she'd be playing Ub forty.

0:46:53.480 --> 0:46:55.920
<v Speaker 2>We both know exactly.

0:46:56.120 --> 0:46:59.040
<v Speaker 3>But this is this is just out of control where

0:46:59.320 --> 0:47:01.920
<v Speaker 3>you now have to double guess what CD am I

0:47:01.920 --> 0:47:02.560
<v Speaker 3>going to put on?

0:47:02.920 --> 0:47:04.160
<v Speaker 2>What track on Spotify?

0:47:04.200 --> 0:47:06.120
<v Speaker 3>Am I going to select them? Will it offend someone?

0:47:06.160 --> 0:47:07.359
<v Speaker 3>And we will end up with the police off.

0:47:07.360 --> 0:47:10.439
<v Speaker 6>The worst part of it is the police actually came

0:47:10.520 --> 0:47:13.359
<v Speaker 6>instead of laughing this woman off the line and did

0:47:13.440 --> 0:47:18.840
<v Speaker 6>indeed record a non crime hate incident. Yes that is

0:47:19.040 --> 0:47:22.680
<v Speaker 6>literally the technical term over there, they call it a NCCHI.

0:47:24.000 --> 0:47:27.160
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, what so there's been no crime, but there has been.

0:47:27.040 --> 0:47:31.320
<v Speaker 6>Some hate, but that hate isn't breaking any laws whatever.

0:47:31.680 --> 0:47:33.520
<v Speaker 5>To a really cool story.

0:47:33.560 --> 0:47:37.879
<v Speaker 6>Now in Tibet, a worker really tired goes to bed.

0:47:38.120 --> 0:47:42.880
<v Speaker 6>Guess what the CCTV camera capture. This guy is out

0:47:42.920 --> 0:47:47.040
<v Speaker 6>like a light when a bear just ambles in to

0:47:47.200 --> 0:47:49.560
<v Speaker 6>his obviously very tight space.

0:47:49.640 --> 0:47:49.839
<v Speaker 5>Here.

0:47:50.360 --> 0:47:55.080
<v Speaker 6>The worker wakes up, realizes what's going on, does a

0:47:55.080 --> 0:47:59.040
<v Speaker 6>little scoochlett to get out of here, grabs his phone

0:47:59.120 --> 0:48:03.600
<v Speaker 6>first because you know, hashtag priorities, and sprints out of

0:48:03.680 --> 0:48:04.200
<v Speaker 6>the room.

0:48:04.640 --> 0:48:07.080
<v Speaker 5>The ban doesn't seem to care that he's there at all.

0:48:07.600 --> 0:48:11.000
<v Speaker 1>That that super Tibetan shop worker startled by bear. That's

0:48:11.000 --> 0:48:14.160
<v Speaker 1>incredibly offensive. He's not startled at all. He's cool as

0:48:13.800 --> 0:48:22.920
<v Speaker 1>it's like I'm not again. It's almost like his phone.

0:48:23.920 --> 0:48:25.040
<v Speaker 5>There's no startled.

0:48:25.760 --> 0:48:29.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Canada very very well kept his cool, got his phone.

0:48:31.440 --> 0:48:31.839
<v Speaker 2>That's all.

0:48:31.840 --> 0:48:34.759
<v Speaker 3>We got time for tonight, but don't go anywhere. Coming

0:48:34.800 --> 0:48:36.280
<v Speaker 3>up in just a moment is three dependent.

0:48:36.360 --> 0:48:36.680
<v Speaker 2>He show
