Speaker 1: Late general, welcome, late.
Speaker 2: Pays well, good evening, It's great to have your company.
Speaker 3: I'm James Macpherson with Liz Stauer and Joe Hildebrand coming up.
Speaker 2: A Gold Coast fisherman not unconscious.
Speaker 3: By a whale. We'll get to that a bit later. Plus,
Speaker 3: when we look at the papers, record numbers of Queensland
Speaker 3: students being homeschooled and household plastics are a much greater
Speaker 3: health risk than anyone ever imagined, according to a new study.
Speaker 2: We'll get to all of that in a moment, but first, new.
Speaker 3: ABC boss Kim Williams has been telling anyone who will
Speaker 3: listen that the national broadcaster desperately needs more funding. After all,
Speaker 3: presenting left wing ideology twenty four to seven doesn't come cheak.
Speaker 3: Not even one point one billion dollars.
Speaker 2: A year is enough to cover it.
Speaker 3: So it might surprise you then to learn that your
Speaker 3: cash strapped ABC spend one hundred and thirty five thousand
Speaker 3: dollars of your money sending its Adelaide radioduo to cover
Speaker 3: the Olympic Games. Not that they went to any sporting events.
Speaker 3: They didn't go to any stadiums. Instead, they covered the
Speaker 3: atmosphere in Paris, and what the ABC advertised as the
Speaker 3: pair's extraordinary French adventure could work if you can get it,
Speaker 3: even better work if the taxpayer is footing the bill.
Speaker 2: Liberal Senator Alex Antik.
Speaker 3: Speaking for most of us I think, told The Australian
Speaker 3: it was staggering that the ABC thinks that spending one
Speaker 3: hundred and thirty five grand to send two breakfast radio
Speaker 3: hosts and two staff to Paris for the Olympic Games
Speaker 3: represents value for money for the Australian taxpayer, all at
Speaker 3: a time when Australians face a cost of living crisis,
Speaker 3: multiple interest rate rises and some of the highest prices.
Speaker 2: We've seen in a generation.
Speaker 3: It does beg the question, how can you claim to
Speaker 3: be underfunded when you're putting on, you know, perks and
Speaker 3: jaunts like this.
Speaker 1: Well, this isn't unusual for the ABC. I was actually
Speaker 1: surprised to learn that they'd only sent four, yes, twenty,
Speaker 1: The major network sent like over two hundred.
Speaker 4: Oh this is just from Adelaide though, This is just
Speaker 4: from the Adelie breakface from Adelaide.
Speaker 1: But also when you do the math, is thirty three thousand,
Speaker 1: thirty three thousand per head for four people for two
Speaker 1: weeks of the Games. Is that really that extortionate?
Speaker 5: Once you put in like flights a.
Speaker 4: Comedy there, like I could, yeah, exactly, I could get
Speaker 4: a really cheap flight to Antarctica and do a Noodi
Speaker 4: run around the South Ball.
Speaker 6: But that doesn't explain what I'm doing.
Speaker 1: Pressing question, especially given they announced in early July that
Speaker 1: they had this ubute sub licensing deal with nine whereby
Speaker 1: ABC Radio where the regional rural remote you name it
Speaker 1: could use nine's broadcast. So it does beg the question
Speaker 1: why did you send anyone.
Speaker 3: Well for color and light and shade. I mean they
Speaker 3: were drinking water from the river and period the trump
Speaker 3: with a.
Speaker 4: Three of with aqua vita and look, I am never
Speaker 4: going to get between a journal and a junket, right,
Speaker 4: They're in there.
Speaker 6: In lives or a perilous risk to your life.
Speaker 4: Right, I've been on overseas jungles everything and blah blah
Speaker 4: blah blah blah.
Speaker 6: But the difference is that this is.
Speaker 4: Paid for by the tax payer and other broadcasts. Obviously,
Speaker 4: the host broadcasters spend millions and millions of dollars just
Speaker 4: to get the rights, millions and millions of dollars to
Speaker 4: send all their top stars and crew and everything over
Speaker 4: there to.
Speaker 6: Do all that stuff.
Speaker 4: But they do that because they get a return on investment,
Speaker 4: because if they do that right, then they get bigger ratings,
Speaker 4: which means they get more AD revenue, which means that
Speaker 4: they can pay those people and pays for itself, and.
Speaker 6: This investment in that company. ABC does not have that motivation.
Speaker 4: In fact, the ABC's whole motivation, even though they constantly
Speaker 4: worry about ratings as a sort of sense of pride,
Speaker 4: and I can completely understand that as well. But their
Speaker 4: job is not to get big ratings, because the reason
Speaker 4: you want big ratings is so you can get big
Speaker 4: AD money. Their job is to do the stuff that
Speaker 4: doesn't rate or that it doesn't attract AD revenue, so
Speaker 4: that Australians don't miss out, like you know, Weekend Arts
Speaker 4: or Radio National or.
Speaker 6: Whatever it is.
Speaker 4: But you know what I mean, Like, so they have
Speaker 4: to be relevant to Australians, So they've got to show
Speaker 4: that Australians are listening to them and engaging with their products.
Speaker 4: But the reason the raison debtra to use a French
Speaker 4: term for any other commercial organization sending people to Paris,
Speaker 4: which is rock solid simply does not exist at the ABC.
Speaker 6: It is a dead parrot.
Speaker 3: But had the ABC not sent this peer, we would
Speaker 3: have missed out on magical moments like where they got
Speaker 3: French people to say Ozzie assisi oi, or where they
Speaker 3: stood out the.
Speaker 1: Fore Oh well that right, Yeah, that's worth one hundred
Speaker 1: and thirty five.
Speaker 3: What comes to mind when I say Australia and the
Speaker 3: replies were amazing.
Speaker 2: You'd never kangaroos, koalas, stuff.
Speaker 3: Like that, so we would have missed all of that
Speaker 3: breaking spent this money so wisely ground breaking.
Speaker 5: I noticed that the ABC has yet to comment on
Speaker 5: this story, just kind of like, yeah, well that's another
Speaker 5: thing to say.
Speaker 3: Really they need to comment on this story because it's
Speaker 3: actually our money, so we and through alex Antick have
Speaker 3: every right to ask what the heck?
Speaker 5: But they're not any other way anyway.
Speaker 1: I mean, if they continually get bashed, their ratings are dropping.
Speaker 5: Everyone knows this. They're in dice.
Speaker 6: Except in Adelaide. Adelaide they're the highest rating.
Speaker 4: They are the highest rating metro AC.
Speaker 1: Which is why obviously they were the chosen ones, because
Speaker 1: they're they're the most like let's send a.
Speaker 4: Breaktas they're no onhere as good as pinbo I can
Speaker 4: promise you that quick word.
Speaker 2: In defense of these two radio hosts.
Speaker 3: I mean it's not's not their fault opportunity of course
Speaker 3: you say.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm pretty sure I know Jewels. I think he's
Speaker 6: the top.
Speaker 4: And again, if someone was going to say we're sending
Speaker 4: you to Paris for the Olympic, yep, thank you very much. Absolutely,
Speaker 4: I'm not going to actually is this an appropriate use
Speaker 4: of tax paper? No, take the money and run. And
Speaker 4: if you want to send me, I'm available. I'll also
Speaker 4: do the US ambassador's dinner party if you want me to,
Speaker 4: you know, like, but still don't playing issue the ABC
Speaker 4: has made that it's not there for God though they're
Speaker 4: made out like bandits, they're just a laughing, literally laughing
Speaker 4: all the way to the banks of the Seine.
Speaker 6: No good on them.
Speaker 4: And again I've never criticized a journal for taking a junker.
Speaker 4: Taken plenty of myself, and I'm available for others.
Speaker 2: Very good.
Speaker 3: Well, let's go to council madness, because there's so many
Speaker 3: crazy things happening in councils around the country. Will start
Speaker 3: in Queensland. You've heard the old adage, sure dog is
Speaker 3: a band's best friend. Well I tell you who's not,
Speaker 3: and that's the Redland City Council. They've just threatened dog
Speaker 3: owners with fines of two thousand, seven hundred dollars if
Speaker 3: you're caught with your dog not on its leash. That's
Speaker 3: a one hundred and fifty percent increase on the previous amount. Now,
Speaker 3: just to put this in perspective, Liz and Joe, twenty
Speaker 3: seven hundred dollars if you're caught walking your dog without
Speaker 3: its leash. If you're caught doing one hundred kilometers in
Speaker 3: a sixty zone, it's a one six hundred and fifty
Speaker 3: three dollar fine. If you're caught drink driving, it's less
Speaker 3: than if you're caught with your dog off its leash.
Speaker 3: So that's how crazy these fines are. And what makes
Speaker 3: it even crazier is that in the Redlands Shire, the
Speaker 3: area where you can let the dog off its leash,
Speaker 3: it's not fenced. There's a couple of signs showing vaguely
Speaker 3: where the area is, and so local resident Margaret Hardy,
Speaker 3: she said officers were issuing fines to dog owners for
Speaker 3: allowing their dogs to walk from the unfenced dog park
Speaker 3: to the car without being on a lead, which was
Speaker 3: really just a matter of meters. There are three or
Speaker 3: four signs, she said, with a map within the grass
Speaker 3: area and at each end, but the rest is a
Speaker 3: guestimation because there's no fence around the dog area.
Speaker 2: But here's my big idea, joe I reckon.
Speaker 3: It's a great thing that in Queensland, if your dog
Speaker 3: does the wrong thing, you, as the owner, you get
Speaker 3: fined twenty seven hundred dollars.
Speaker 2: What if they did that for the parents of juvenile criminals.
Speaker 4: That's right, that's a fantastic idea. This makes my blood boil.
Speaker 6: This is so insane. This is Karen Baiting right.
Speaker 4: This is basically saying, if you are a miserable, nasty
Speaker 4: life hating dog, hating child, hating old way with nothing
Speaker 4: better to do, you can just spend your days just
Speaker 4: looking for people as dogs are off the leash.
Speaker 6: This does my head in.
Speaker 4: Everyone knows that in every single community there are areas
Speaker 4: where the dogs run free.
Speaker 6: Everyone's cool with it. Half the time. No one I
Speaker 6: know in the parks in my area.
Speaker 4: Half the time, no one knows whether it's whether it's
Speaker 4: meant to be an on leach or off leag Era
Speaker 4: or night. We've got a public golf course near our
Speaker 4: house that was recently saved from the Greens who were
Speaker 4: trying to turn it into some I don't know, talking
Speaker 4: yarning circle or something, I don't know, whatever it was,
Speaker 4: and you know, and everyone just runs their dogs up
Speaker 4: and down it. I don't know if they're meant to
Speaker 4: be on a leash. I don't know if they're meant
Speaker 4: to be driving a golf bait. I don't know if
Speaker 4: they're meant to shout for if they're coming, you know,
Speaker 4: but everyone does it because the community just knows. And
Speaker 4: then the council comes in and councils always bow to
Speaker 4: the will of the most unreasonable, intolerant, nasty snitch in
Speaker 4: the community.
Speaker 6: And that's exactly what this has done. It is Karen Baiting.
Speaker 4: It is saying, you know what, we are going to
Speaker 4: take the most miserable, anti social, misanthropic person in the
Speaker 4: community and apply their standards to everybody else. And it's
Speaker 4: outrageous and not just misanthropic, miss dogthropic.
Speaker 1: Well, speaking of councils taking on the feedback of in
Speaker 1: this case, two people, Let's go to Sydney where Clover
Speaker 1: Moore has decided that a very popular pub in Wilhelmloo
Speaker 1: can no longer serve people dinner outside after eight pm.
Speaker 7: Why.
Speaker 1: Apparently there were a few kegs discovered on the sidewalk
Speaker 1: which was blocking pedestrians the last time the council popped
Speaker 1: in and get this, two people, just two people from
Speaker 1: the community had complained and said, we don't want these
Speaker 1: people outside anymore. They're dining, they're drinking, they're having a
Speaker 1: great time, and I'm miserable, so I want them to
Speaker 1: be miserable too. This woman's name is Belinda Olsen. She
Speaker 1: was one of the two public submissions that got a
Speaker 1: counsel to be like, oh, yes, we must action this immediately.
Speaker 5: Here's what she had to say for herself.
Speaker 1: There is way too much space given to them already,
Speaker 1: and I object to them receiving anymore faith. They are
Speaker 1: not being accountable for the area now and they need
Speaker 1: to respect residents and pedestrians, not to mention the noise
Speaker 1: generated from that many people standing and sitting around outside.
Speaker 5: As they get louder, as they get drunk.
Speaker 1: Car Belinda, you sound like you need a cold one lady.
Speaker 1: I mean, how miserable do you have to be? And
Speaker 1: yet she would be so toughed right now because what
Speaker 1: does Sydney Council decide to do lay the SmackDown on
Speaker 1: the pub. It's called the Old Fits. Many Sydney siders
Speaker 1: would be very familiar with it. Here's James Thorpe, who
Speaker 1: owns the Old Fits.
Speaker 5: He says, it's pretty unbelievable.
Speaker 1: We accept that neighborhood amenity is really important, but we
Speaker 1: have a perfect compliance history. That we're having to close
Speaker 1: the most popular area of the pub just as dinner
Speaker 1: service is starting is not right when we've traded out.
Speaker 5: There for eighteen years until ten p m.
Speaker 1: I can understand if the council had received like one
Speaker 1: hundred complaints, and then you've got to assume that for
Speaker 1: everyone who's taken the time to complain, there's a pile
Speaker 1: of others who've taken exception to it but sucked it up,
Speaker 1: and you go, oh, well, we've got to do something.
Speaker 1: But two complaints, they got two submissions and now the
Speaker 1: SmackDown gets placed.
Speaker 5: In the Old Fit.
Speaker 4: It is absolutely insane. I'm going to it might be
Speaker 4: even the one thing I love more than dogs is alcohol.
Speaker 6: So I'm going to get even more upset about this way. Okay,
Speaker 6: this is a letter.
Speaker 4: This is This is a tiny, little local pub. It
Speaker 4: is the most awesome job. I've been their heaps of times.
Speaker 4: It was the local of a maid of mine who,
Speaker 4: trigger warning, used to take his dog there occasionally, I
Speaker 4: believe unleashed.
Speaker 6: I'll have to I'll have to go.
Speaker 4: Back and check my nose, my next for my next
Speaker 4: council report. But I believe that, you know from time
Speaker 4: to time, and it's just one of those beautiful little
Speaker 4: community pubs. It's not a sort of joint where you've
Speaker 4: got you know, giant you know, beer swilling, meth head bikis.
Speaker 6: Stabbing each other with pool cubes.
Speaker 4: There's a little community theater there, or at least it
Speaker 4: was last time I checked.
Speaker 6: I don't go to I don't leave the house anymore.
Speaker 6: But there used to be a beautiful little community theater there.
Speaker 6: So they put on little plays. So you go and
Speaker 6: have your dinner and then you go have a thing,
Speaker 6: and it's still there. It is.
Speaker 4: It's a little sort of it's the most inoffensive place
Speaker 4: in the world, blocking pedestriins. No one's walking past there,
Speaker 4: except to go to the pub. It's basically the only
Speaker 4: thing you go there. There's a big housing commissioner state.
Speaker 4: On the other side, it's lots of colorful local identities.
Speaker 4: I'm sure that they've got bigger problems than the ones
Speaker 4: that Belinda outlined. And it's also at the sort of
Speaker 4: just adjacent to sort of down the hill from almost
Speaker 4: down the cliff from a little a little locality in city,
Speaker 4: not officially a suburb industrum. That's a little fun fact.
Speaker 4: Not a suburb, but a locality. Doesn't have its own
Speaker 4: post guy, but he's a locality.
Speaker 6: You might have heard of it. It's called King's Cross.
Speaker 4: Cross at what Cage Cross gets loud at night?
Speaker 6: No, you have to stop your dinner service. You're out
Speaker 6: of disservice at eight pm. There's no early bird special.
Speaker 4: That's not that's not the that's not the west ryde
Speaker 4: RSLAN and.
Speaker 3: The new South Wales government Chris Means he's been trying
Speaker 3: to encourage while attainment venues. Clover More has been boasting
Speaker 3: about how they've removed red tape to encourage entertainment and
Speaker 3: dining venues.
Speaker 2: This establishment apparently.
Speaker 3: Has got an eighteen year history of perfect compliance with
Speaker 3: council regulations.
Speaker 2: They get a couple of complaints and all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: the council.
Speaker 3: Are They enforce the rules rigorously without any grace or
Speaker 3: mercy at all. Let's stick with councils because it just
Speaker 3: keeps going. In New South Wales, the Cumberland City Council
Speaker 3: in Western Sydney, well, doesn't matter that sixty four percent
Speaker 3: I think it was. It was certainly two thirds of
Speaker 3: people in that shire voted no to the Voice at
Speaker 3: the referendum last October.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 3: No, they're going to push ahead with their own local treaty.
Speaker 3: They're calling it partnership, but it's really a treaty with
Speaker 3: three indigenous groups. Now, this treaty, apart from acknowledging that
Speaker 3: the land in the shire, was never ceded and I
Speaker 3: guess if the council really believed that they would give
Speaker 3: back City Hall and their own homes and properties.
Speaker 2: But it's just virtue signaling.
Speaker 3: But they've decided that these three indigenous groups will be
Speaker 3: consulted on every new development, every planning application and even
Speaker 3: on the naming of streets from now on. Once they
Speaker 3: pass this partnership, councilor Steve Christu was on two GB
Speaker 3: talking about the incredible red tape that will be put
Speaker 3: around developments if this goes ahead.
Speaker 7: That is very very concerning because it will just stop
Speaker 7: any development or any sort of progress occurring in Cumberland.
Speaker 7: And imagine all the red tape that's going to be
Speaker 7: created when you have to consult on every lamp purchase
Speaker 7: or every negotiation or deal that council wants to implement.
Speaker 7: It's just not on It's horrendous for the local community.
Speaker 3: Now, the good news is the state government can override this,
Speaker 3: but Joe, the bad news is it's a labor state government.
Speaker 4: It is, but the labor mayor of Cumberland is pretty sensible.
Speaker 4: I've only met her at once, but she seemed pretty
Speaker 4: sensible and they've had sort of issues dancing around kind
Speaker 4: of you know, are they too versus Steve christ who's
Speaker 4: a former mayor and is very obviously, as you can say,
Speaker 4: straight down the line, good old fashioned family values, no nonsense,
Speaker 4: no bs, that sort of thing, and he's an impressive
Speaker 4: figure as well. But I think it will be interesting
Speaker 4: to see just what form this takes. I can't imagine. Firstly,
Speaker 4: the state labor government wants to do one thing and
Speaker 4: one thing only above absolutely anything else. And it showed
Speaker 4: it in its last date budget where it put billions
Speaker 4: towards it, and has showed it in every single thing
Speaker 4: that's said. Front and center wants more housing, wants more housing,
Speaker 4: and anything that stops counsels from approving more housing. They
Speaker 4: come in and they whack them like a ton of bricks.
Speaker 4: They hate Nimbi's, they hate the people, the councils who
Speaker 4: aren't approving it. They've gone after them before, they'll go
Speaker 4: after them again. They've just announced gott an eight billion
Speaker 4: or something for public housing, a huge amount of money.
Speaker 6: So if any of this, if.
Speaker 4: Any of these so called consultations or partnerships slow down
Speaker 4: the development application process and slow down the rate of
Speaker 4: speed at which housing can be approved, I promise you
Speaker 4: the government will come down on them like a ton
Speaker 4: of bricks. The good news is the mayor and this
Speaker 4: is not like a sort of a bulla recounts l
Speaker 4: or one of those kind of lefty why tearly kind
Speaker 4: of lefty councils. This is real sort of Sydney heartland,
Speaker 4: Western Sydney mticulture. The labor mayor from the right of
Speaker 4: the party, as is obviously Chris Mins, who's been saying
Speaker 4: all the right things about ending red tape and that
Speaker 4: sort of stuff, including the previous story. So I think
Speaker 4: I hold out some hope that this is just a
Speaker 4: kind of thing to say acknowledge. Yeah, maybe we'll have
Speaker 4: some Indigenous names on the new streets that we build,
Speaker 4: Maybe there will be Indigenous spaces. If there's a park,
Speaker 4: there'll be a yarning circle or some sort of note
Speaker 4: to the indigenous history. But if it slows up housing
Speaker 4: and development, it will be crashed.
Speaker 2: Even if if doesn't affect red tape.
Speaker 3: Liz, what right does a local council who are meant
Speaker 3: to be filling in potholes, making sure parks are freshly mode?
Speaker 3: What right do they have to enter into treaties on
Speaker 3: who owns the land with anybody.
Speaker 1: And it's a big, big middle finger to the people
Speaker 1: who voted them. Then you are supposed to be representing
Speaker 1: your constituency. Two hundred and forty thousand people live in
Speaker 1: Cumberland Council. Only fourteen hundred and fifty of them are Indigenous,
Speaker 1: So to preference such a small percentage of the population,
Speaker 1: it begs the question if they pass such a thing.
Speaker 1: Who's really running the council? Why do we affect you
Speaker 1: guys to be on counsel and to sit as counselors
Speaker 1: if you're just going to sign a treaty that makes
Speaker 1: everyone co manage it?
Speaker 5: Not actually those three.
Speaker 4: Land I'm saying, it's not actually a treaty at all.
Speaker 4: It's a step christ who was saying this is effectively
Speaker 4: a treaty that will be the same thing as Yeah, that's.
Speaker 3: Just essentially you're saying, there's us and there's you, and
Speaker 3: we are two completely distinct, separate groups.
Speaker 2: Let's have a partnership, they're calling it.
Speaker 4: Let's have a macarata exactly coming together everything but name.
Speaker 6: But I think.
Speaker 3: We're on a council website, right and you know the mayor,
Speaker 3: so I take your word for it. But you read
Speaker 3: the bios of all the counselors and these words stand
Speaker 3: out continually in the bios, and the buyers are only
Speaker 3: one or two sentences, but diverse city inclusion. I'm here
Speaker 3: to stand for social justice. Social inclusion reconst nothing to
Speaker 3: do with being a counselor, No.
Speaker 2: Not at all. So you can see this that's always
Speaker 2: going to go this way.
Speaker 3: When you elect people who see their role as being
Speaker 3: on council to bring social justice.
Speaker 4: But every other count and I agree that that's all
Speaker 4: just a bunch of wankery that sort of means nothing
Speaker 4: in it of itself. But you'll see that all sort
Speaker 4: of counselors have that sort of stuff. They will have
Speaker 4: all organizations will say we respect our Earth, inclusion bab bah,
Speaker 4: all those signs everywhere racist, red flag, do not vote.
Speaker 4: That's pretty annoying obviously. Obviously those sorts of words pronouns
Speaker 4: in your bio that I mean, i'd i'd love to know.
Speaker 4: You know, they're going to go knock on the door
Speaker 4: of saving six foot four islander guys. Sorry, mate, because
Speaker 4: you apparently are a colonial oppressor to the indigenous population here.
Speaker 6: You're going to have to seed your land to them.
Speaker 4: I don't think that council worker is going to get
Speaker 4: very far in that conversation, So I'm not sure that
Speaker 4: this is going.
Speaker 6: To be the end of day's event.
Speaker 3: Probably right, Let's go to the UK, where the Labor
Speaker 3: government is reviewing their terrorism legislation and strategies, and as
Speaker 3: part of that review, they are now proposing to list
Speaker 3: extreme misogyny as terrorism. Now, the way that this would
Speaker 3: work is that anyone who's guilty of extreme misogyny and
Speaker 3: will talk about the problems that phrase raises in a moment,
Speaker 3: but we'll have to be referred to the government's terrorism unit,
Speaker 3: which means even school teachers if they encountered young boys
Speaker 3: I don't know in grade seven or grade nine who
Speaker 3: are exhibiting signs of extreme misogyny. And Liz, we've never
Speaker 3: seen a high school boy who's exhibited signs.
Speaker 2: Of you know, tempting or being mean to girls.
Speaker 3: But teachers would be duty bound to report that kid
Speaker 3: to the terrorism authorities if they're going to say extreme
Speaker 3: misogyny is on par with Islamic terrorism. Bridget Phillipson, she's
Speaker 3: the Minister for Women and Equalities. She said, I want
Speaker 3: to make sure that we have a generation of boys
Speaker 3: and young men who grow up respecting women rather than
Speaker 3: the growing levels of misogyny we're seeing at the moment.
Speaker 3: It has to be about prosecuting and preventing. But we
Speaker 3: have to start when our children are young.
Speaker 5: AE.
Speaker 3: You can't prosecute them too young to make sure they
Speaker 3: have healthy attitudes towards women, else we risk a generation
Speaker 3: of misogynists. Now to say that extreme misogyny and extreme misogyny,
Speaker 3: it begs the question, can you have moderate misogyny?
Speaker 2: Is that okay?
Speaker 3: And who defines extreme and who defines misogyny? And Islamic
Speaker 3: terrorist And this is according to the Home Secretary in
Speaker 3: figures she released last year, Islamic terrorism represented sixty seven
Speaker 3: percent of all terrorist attacks in the UK over the
Speaker 3: past six years, seventy five percent of MI five's caseload
Speaker 3: involves people from Islamic terrorist backgrounds, and sixty four percent
Speaker 3: of all people in custody for terror added defenses relate
Speaker 3: to Islamic terrorism.
Speaker 2: But they're worried about boys being mean to girls.
Speaker 3: That the concern here is on a serious note, is
Speaker 3: that effectively it downplays Islamic terrorism, which is a very
Speaker 3: real threat right across Europe and indeed the Western world.
Speaker 3: And when you're saying, well, you've got Islamic terrorism, but
Speaker 3: you've also got extreme misogyny, it sort of downplays Islamic
Speaker 3: terrorism almost to a point of normalizing it, Like, you know,
Speaker 3: it's just one of those things.
Speaker 1: Well, when you look at their categories for extremism, it's
Speaker 1: really vast. They've got one for animal rights. They've got
Speaker 1: an environmental one. There's a category for in cell, which
Speaker 1: stands for involuntary celibate, which they describe as young men
Speaker 1: who are really resentful to women due to women's rejection
Speaker 1: of them.
Speaker 5: That is on an extremist list.
Speaker 1: Just in cell sitting in their basements, usually playing.
Speaker 6: Some sort of like by day. They call that high school.
Speaker 1: So you're like, what are you guys focused on right now?
Speaker 1: Especially while the UK is burning? There are very legitimate
Speaker 1: terrorism threats underway. Extremism not only of the far right,
Speaker 1: but also yes, Islamic extremism, as we've seen breaking out
Speaker 1: on the streets of the UK over the last four
Speaker 1: weeks after the stabbings in Southport, which is what three
Speaker 1: weeks old now, four hundred and sixty people have already
Speaker 1: come before magistrates in the UK just due to the riots.
Speaker 5: That have occurred during that. And these guys want to
Speaker 5: talk about we've.
Speaker 1: Got to crack down on high school boys or not
Speaker 1: even high school boys. How young is she talking about
Speaker 1: when she's saying boys and young men here, and what
Speaker 1: does this actually mean? You're going to start running courses
Speaker 1: in high school being like be nice to women and
Speaker 1: all it does is create more space for young men
Speaker 1: to be resentful, to shrug off this authoritarian figures telling
Speaker 1: them that you can't I don't even know what they're
Speaker 1: going to be saying, like, you can't do this to women,
Speaker 1: you can't be mean.
Speaker 6: I'm not clear exactly what they how they're going to do.
Speaker 1: Because they don't they don't give one example of the
Speaker 1: misogyny that.
Speaker 5: They're talking about.
Speaker 3: It's just like, let me give you some examples of
Speaker 3: extreme misogyny, honor killings, child rights.
Speaker 2: Sex traffic, you would be very genital mutilation.
Speaker 3: That there's some examples of extreme misogyny that maybe the
Speaker 3: UK government could crack down on hard.
Speaker 5: But to see anything Islamic, They're not going to touch it,
Speaker 5: are they.
Speaker 1: As we saw during these riots, all of it was
Speaker 1: directed at the far right patriots that people in the UK,
Speaker 1: the natives have had e enough. We didn't once see
Speaker 1: a single government figure come out and talk about the
Speaker 1: Islamic streamism that had given rise to what is a
Speaker 1: totally predictable backlash.
Speaker 4: I think that there is definitely I mean, there's definitely
Speaker 4: horrible terror like results from extreme misogyny. I mean, there
Speaker 4: was a Californian shooter, one of the many many mass
Speaker 4: killings in the US that there's just so many it's
Speaker 4: hard to sort of it. But he was clearly, I think,
Speaker 4: identified as an inceel and the and the and there.
Speaker 6: And there is this weird online.
Speaker 4: Community which is turned sort of what I was, which
Speaker 4: was a port nerdy kid who couldn't get a girlfriend,
Speaker 4: into these these sort of hive mind people who with
Speaker 4: Andrew Tate and others. There's a sort of community. It's
Speaker 4: got some weird it's like the bro online sort or something,
Speaker 4: or the you know, the Man to neet or something.
Speaker 4: It's like the man Internet or whatever. And there is
Speaker 4: this foreign community, and people are worried about I'm worried
Speaker 4: about my boys about Andrew Tate is an absolute horrible scumbag.
Speaker 4: There is no no pretending that he's just teaching boys
Speaker 4: to be men and anything like. He is a horrible,
Speaker 4: horrible human being. Does some also, I believe he's facing
Speaker 4: charges for sex trafficking. So I don't think it's a
Speaker 4: bit like saying, yeah, Hitler, you know, I killed a
Speaker 4: lot the Jews. But he was a vegetarian, loved animals. Actually,
Speaker 4: he was a vegetarian for.
Speaker 5: Health reason, a lot of good stuff.
Speaker 4: He is a hideous human being and anything good that
Speaker 4: he has to say is far out wide by the
Speaker 4: appalling thing.
Speaker 1: How much of his stuff if you listen to what
Speaker 1: are you basing that on? The media definitely just goes
Speaker 1: after this.
Speaker 5: And he has he said terrible things, but.
Speaker 6: He's accused of doing them. He's facing he's facing charges
Speaker 6: in two different countries. That's what I'm saying, facing charges.
Speaker 3: Yes, we don't have nerdy young guys who've never had
Speaker 3: a boyfriend threatening to blow up a Katy Perry concert
Speaker 3: or a Taylor Swift concert.
Speaker 6: They have gone hence, But the Californian.
Speaker 2: Kid, that's not the issue in the UK and throughout Europe.
Speaker 6: Not right, It's not their biggest problem right now.
Speaker 4: I'm just saying it is not inconceivable that these two
Speaker 4: things could become as extreme as each other and result
Speaker 4: in Killing's just like it's not unconcivable that you could
Speaker 4: have the massacre in New Zealand being just as bad
Speaker 4: as you know, the attacks on the batter of cloud
Speaker 4: in Paris. The difference, I think is just what is
Speaker 4: that definition going to be? And I think when you
Speaker 4: have so many people who are so easily sort of
Speaker 4: triggered or so easily alarmed by what is off a
Speaker 4: normal teenage you know, male behavior. Kids mucking around saying
Speaker 4: stupid stuff like any teenage boy does, any or younger
Speaker 4: than teenage boy does. If they're going to start saying,
Speaker 4: oh my god, that's a misogyny, that's a misogyny, you've
Speaker 4: got to be reported to the police.
Speaker 6: You've got to go to this re education count. That
Speaker 6: is the problem here.
Speaker 3: Just coming back to something you said, Liz, Let's say, okay,
Speaker 3: extreme misogyny is an issue.
Speaker 2: The government need to do something about it.
Speaker 3: But the timing of this when you've got rights in
Speaker 3: the UK because people are concerned about immigration for economic
Speaker 3: reasons but also because of social cohesion. There have been
Speaker 3: a number of terrorist incidents in the UK. It's not
Speaker 3: just one or two, oh far more than we're here.
Speaker 3: So let's imagine it's fair enough we need to do
Speaker 3: something about extreme misogyny.
Speaker 2: But is this the moment to say we're going to
Speaker 2: list that as a major terror.
Speaker 3: Issue and we're going to start to direct MI I
Speaker 3: five to focus on you know, disaffected young males who
Speaker 3: may be angry at girls.
Speaker 2: No, it's completely tough to rag to a bull, isn't it?
Speaker 5: It is?
Speaker 1: It is, And I think once again this is just
Speaker 1: going to make the English in the UK absolutely ropable,
Speaker 1: because it's like at a time when, like you have
Speaker 1: pointed out, a lot of these issues around women's rights
Speaker 1: are only being brought to the forefront because you have
Speaker 1: a large percentage of a Muslim population. Now who we
Speaker 1: know when it comes to Muslims and women's rights. It's
Speaker 1: a very different world to any Western democracy. And now
Speaker 1: you're saying this helter skelter, as if it's across the
Speaker 1: board issue, when really is it? Is it? Like I say,
Speaker 1: she could not give a single example of what she
Speaker 1: meant by misogyny, much less extreme misogyny, much less in
Speaker 1: the younger age category that she's talking about. They already
Speaker 1: have have an extremist category for in cells, which are
Speaker 1: basically just I guess, a whole pile of sexually frustrated
Speaker 1: young men and they're afraid that they're going to do
Speaker 1: something about it. And like you say, Joe, there has
Speaker 1: been many instances in the US post shooting where they
Speaker 1: have found out that these guys who went on rampages
Speaker 1: were absolutely filled with hatred toward women and were incredibly
Speaker 1: repressed and had written about.
Speaker 5: It at length, etc. And so on. But at a
Speaker 5: time like this, when the UK is.
Speaker 1: A boiling smelter of very serious issues, this is what
Speaker 1: their ministers are coming out with.
Speaker 5: It's laughable.
Speaker 4: Well, just to prove how incredibly fair and balanced and
Speaker 4: principled I am, it would be worth reminding the UK
Speaker 4: authorities what the progressive response was to people during the
Speaker 4: Black Lives Matter movement who said, well, hang on, don't
Speaker 4: all lives matter? And they absolutely lost their proverbial because
Speaker 4: how dare you say this at a time when black
Speaker 4: people are facing the greatest crisis, And there were means
Speaker 4: all over the internet with someone saying, you know, like
Speaker 4: you know, my house is burning down, My house is
Speaker 4: burning down, you know, you know, call the fire brigade,
Speaker 4: and some smug white person saying, yes, but don't all
Speaker 4: houses matter.
Speaker 6: Isn't it important to have all houses?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 6: But mine is the one that's burning down. So to
Speaker 6: your point, again, yes, we.
Speaker 4: Should treat all forms of you know, violence or terrorism
Speaker 4: or whatever you know as serious, But again, it is
Speaker 4: the time when you are facing this huge upheaval in
Speaker 4: social cohesion where you know, in a sense England is burning,
Speaker 4: do you say, oh yeah, but we better make sure
Speaker 4: that we also tick all these boxes over here and
Speaker 4: over here.
Speaker 5: Not all forms of terrorism created equals.
Speaker 4: But again it is amazing how similar the left and
Speaker 4: the right when they're in these exact same, mirror opposite
Speaker 4: but otherwise exactly the same situations. And again you have
Speaker 4: you know, you have, you know, just like you had
Speaker 4: with Black Lives Matter, saying well, no, don't worry about
Speaker 4: your lives.
Speaker 6: We're waiting just about the black lives.
Speaker 4: When people are going on about you know, well what
Speaker 4: about all these crimes by whoever it is, you know,
Speaker 4: extremist Islam or whatever it might be, say oh, yes,
Speaker 4: but what about you know, far right nationalism, or what
Speaker 4: about misogyny? And they do it again and again and again,
Speaker 4: to the point where a UK labor counselor actually allegedly
Speaker 4: because I'm sure he's going to deny as well, but
Speaker 4: was was hauled before the courts and arrested by the cops,
Speaker 4: charged with inciting violence after it was caught on video
Speaker 4: saying we need to go to these demos, to these demonstrators,
Speaker 4: the ones you're talking about.
Speaker 6: And cut their throats.
Speaker 4: Like the guy is literally describing what isis do yeah,
Speaker 4: and then he's saying, I like and it's about It's like,
Speaker 4: it's like, I give up.
Speaker 6: You're all the same.
Speaker 2: Well, Joe, speaking of extreme misogyny.
Speaker 3: Yes, a group of women about twenty just stood on
Speaker 3: the steps of Parliament House in the area and I
Speaker 3: just wanted to talk about women's rights and what happened.
Speaker 4: This is the most amazing story. I saw it in
Speaker 4: the OZ on the weekend. Thank god they got a report.
Speaker 6: It down there. It was just absolutely amazing.
Speaker 4: I did my column on it today, but there was okay,
Speaker 4: so there's sort of Moya redeeming typs. Moira wasn't there
Speaker 4: because he's still too traumatized from the last time. We'll
Speaker 4: see what's happening with John Persuerto and the Liberal Party there.
Speaker 4: But it's kind of like these women's right scrips. There's
Speaker 4: a new women's rights groups who have shown up and
Speaker 4: which you're accused of being anti trans groups. They're saying, well,
Speaker 4: women need their own safe spaces and they shouldn't have
Speaker 4: to share them with biological males who identify with women.
Speaker 6: Whatever.
Speaker 4: Whatever, I don't even want to get into that whole debate,
Speaker 4: but what I do think was just absolutely amazing is
Speaker 4: that you then had these weird as weird if you
Speaker 4: don't understand they but not the sort of mainstream kind
Speaker 4: of trans rights people who are trying to get legal
Speaker 4: changes or recognition, but these nutty, crazy, trotty fringe groups
Speaker 4: who just protest about absolutely anything. All they're going around
Speaker 4: and just looking for something to protest. Trans riss now
Speaker 4: the protest as you are, and so they've rocked up.
Speaker 4: We've got some images of what they did. They have
Speaker 4: actually rocked up. And this sign I've called tell me
Speaker 4: you're a Marxist without telling me you're a Marxist. Here
Speaker 4: is a guy showing the Palestinian flag at a trans
Speaker 4: rights rally, and there is a science says fascist graves
Speaker 4: are gender neutral toilets. They think they're in the Spanish
Speaker 4: Civil War. These guys are just there at the Palestinian sign.
Speaker 2: What they're doing, I've got to do with it.
Speaker 1: These transgender liberation protesters were literally throwing eggs in at
Speaker 1: these twenty odd women who had just rocked up to
Speaker 1: be like, hey, women's rights please, that'd be nice and
Speaker 1: these guys come at them with eggs and water balloons,
Speaker 1: chaos ensues.
Speaker 5: What an absolute own goal by the trade.
Speaker 1: There's always these women are simply just like, hey, basic
Speaker 1: rights for women, yay. And they can't even allow women
Speaker 1: to just go hate Can we have buronzon that's right, No,
Speaker 1: we don't hate women, but we're just going to come
Speaker 1: out literally throw eggs and water balloons at you and
Speaker 1: not even let you have just a peaceable rally on
Speaker 1: the steps of Parliament House, which you've got.
Speaker 5: Every right to do. So anyone going, oh, well, you
Speaker 5: know eating rights and what this is tricky?
Speaker 1: No, you've you've identified yourselves as the bad guys.
Speaker 5: I won't even let women speak.
Speaker 2: And do you think just into Andrews just into Andrews.
Speaker 6: Close enough?
Speaker 5: Wrong? Actually very accurate.
Speaker 3: I think condemnist. I don't know if our producer can
Speaker 3: do this. But while we were talking, an image was
Speaker 3: put up on your screen where it had a sign
Speaker 3: that said queer's bash queers.
Speaker 2: In that site? Should that not be someone charged with
Speaker 2: incite to violence?
Speaker 6: Well, they're only bashing the a.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Again, these are the mainstream left worst enemies. So the
Speaker 4: mainstream groups who are trying to get you know, changing.
Speaker 3: Nazi daring to say that women deserve their own provate space. Right,
Speaker 3: So when these guys rock up, start throwing eggs, start,
Speaker 3: But that was not condemned.
Speaker 4: But they are the same thing as what happened to
Speaker 4: so more redeeming was condemned the Nazi because the similar group,
Speaker 4: if not the same group that she was at, had
Speaker 4: their protest gate crashed by a bunch of arguably neo
Speaker 4: Nazis or far right supremacists. And so just because these
Speaker 4: guys started showing up and said, hey, we're on your side,
Speaker 4: she gets called a Nazi.
Speaker 6: And this is exact same thing that this is exact
Speaker 6: same thing on the left.
Speaker 2: What do the government say about them?
Speaker 4: They are horrible, horrible people. They are terrible and they're
Speaker 4: making the government's life an absolute misery. The good news
Speaker 4: is that they are also destroying the Greens, because the
Speaker 4: Victorian Greens are now being absolutely torn apart by this,
Speaker 4: because of course they've got a lot of you know,
Speaker 4: pretty hardcore, you know, radical feminists, and they've got this
Speaker 4: whole just trans rights at any cost. Like again, it
Speaker 4: is just the new obsession of the left. This is
Speaker 4: their new frontier, and it is tearing the Greens Apartner's
Speaker 4: this massive internal war that's happening.
Speaker 6: People are quitting.
Speaker 4: So if there's any good to come of it, it's
Speaker 4: that they may all destroy themselves.
Speaker 3: Just before we go to a break, Liz. In the
Speaker 3: United States, there's some movement on the trans issues. Tell
Speaker 3: us about that, just quick.
Speaker 5: Yes, there is.
Speaker 1: So the Supreme Court, the Biden administration was trying to
Speaker 1: get the mission to widen trans rights, particularly in schools
Speaker 1: and elsewhere, which would mean that if you identify as
Speaker 1: a gender different to that which you were born with,
Speaker 1: you would have the right to go into whatever bathroom
Speaker 1: you wanted, whatever are the women's spaces that you wanted.
Speaker 5: And the Supreme Court has struck that down. So it
Speaker 5: is a win for common sense.
Speaker 1: It is temporary because we know the administration is going
Speaker 1: to come back with another goal at this, but the Supreme.
Speaker 5: Court has ruled for now this stays where it is.
Speaker 1: So this is the prevented the enforcement of provisions that
Speaker 1: would allow transgender students to use restrooms, et cetera.
Speaker 5: And so on.
Speaker 1: So right now the school kids can say no, no,
Speaker 1: you are not actually a female. Therefore you can't come
Speaker 1: into the girls only because.
Speaker 3: The Trump appointed Supreme Court. Indeed, no to the radical Biden.
Speaker 5: They have the majority at the moment.
Speaker 4: But even if that does happens, you know who still
Speaker 4: wouldn't be able to use the toilets is that Joe
Speaker 4: fascists because gender neutral toilets are fascist graves.
Speaker 2: We're going to go to a break.
Speaker 3: When we come back, we'll look at what's making news
Speaker 3: in tomorrow's papers. That's in just a moment, all right,
Speaker 3: Let's take a look at what's happening in the papers tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Joe, you've got the career mail.
Speaker 4: I do, indeed, And on the front page of the
Speaker 4: courly Mail, two hundred and fifty kids are learning at
Speaker 4: home as parents blame abuse bullied out of school, says
Speaker 4: the headline. Homeschooling enrollments have hit a record high in
Speaker 4: Queensland as parents desperate to protect their children from bullying
Speaker 4: abandon traditional education. Quick word to the wise, homeschooling your
Speaker 4: kids is probably not going to insulate them from further bullying.
Speaker 2: That is not true.
Speaker 5: That is not true.
Speaker 1: This has now made me a fan of bullies in school,
Speaker 1: because if it gets kids out of the cesspools of
Speaker 1: indoctrination that is.
Speaker 5: Currently the state school system. Then good on you.
Speaker 1: I was homeschooled for three years. It was the best
Speaker 1: three years ever. I absolutely loved it.
Speaker 8: All the fearmongering about oh, they won't be socialized, Yes
Speaker 8: we were. It was absolutely I absolutely loved it, and
Speaker 8: I highly recommend it. The only downside is parents, if
Speaker 8: you then decide to send your kids back to.
Speaker 5: A normal school.
Speaker 1: I know what to do with this because we were
Speaker 1: all leagues ahead of all the other kids in our
Speaker 1: age groups.
Speaker 5: So they were like, what do we do with these
Speaker 5: mutants who are way.
Speaker 1: Smarter than all the state schooled kids who have just
Speaker 1: been slurping up the indoctrination spot for years on EDG?
Speaker 6: What do we do with these non cultural Marxists.
Speaker 5: Yeah exactly.
Speaker 4: I was actually home myself as well, so I think
Speaker 4: about six months or something, my mum pulled me out
Speaker 4: of grade prep, which is KINDI in Victoria, Okay, sent
Speaker 4: me back in grade one yea, because apparently I was
Speaker 4: just walking around in circles.
Speaker 6: On my own, which pretty much still that's.
Speaker 2: Just changed at all.
Speaker 6: Still what I'm doing.
Speaker 3: So do you think homeschooling has been made more prepler
Speaker 3: by the fact that so many people since COVID have
Speaker 3: realized they can work from home.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think, I think there's a bit of that,
Speaker 4: But all the data and people are seeing it now
Speaker 4: and educators across the border starting to warn about it. Now,
Speaker 4: all the data shows that in fact, all that you know,
Speaker 4: homeschooling or teachers don't like that.
Speaker 6: But you know, like the remote learning or.
Speaker 4: Whatever has been absolutely devastating for kids. It's been devastating
Speaker 4: for learning developments.
Speaker 1: Devastating.
Speaker 5: That wasn't homeschooling.
Speaker 6: No, no, that's what I said, remote learning. I know
Speaker 6: I used the right pie right terminology or.
Speaker 1: Get some pieces like long distance homeschooling is comprosed.
Speaker 4: But as someone who did actually get homeschooled by crazy
Speaker 4: hippy parents who never cut my hair, didn't help.
Speaker 5: It turned out.
Speaker 1: Okay, let's go to the front hair nearly six months let's.
Speaker 3: Go to the front page of the Adelaide Advertiser. The
Speaker 3: headline reads, all kids to learn value of civics South Australia.
Speaker 6: That's why they're running away from school pollution. I want
Speaker 6: to go to homeschool.
Speaker 3: Isn't this the state that completely ignored the referendum by
Speaker 3: introducing a state based treaty after everyone had.
Speaker 2: Voted no never to state the voice democracy. Let me
Speaker 2: start again.
Speaker 3: South Australian high school students will learn how democracy works
Speaker 3: under a eighteen four million dollar plan to decrease go
Speaker 3: to apathy and tackle the effects of disinformation. Look the
Speaker 3: risk here, of course, Liz, is that do you really
Speaker 3: trust people who belong to the teachers' union to teach your.
Speaker 2: Children about democracy.
Speaker 3: The one good thing I'll say about what I've read
Speaker 3: of this new curriculum is that students will have to
Speaker 3: read George Orwell's nineteen eighty four.
Speaker 2: It can't all be bad. And I'm to the list
Speaker 2: and I would be in support.
Speaker 5: I'm in I mean, isn't this incredible? I mean most
Speaker 5: people reading this will.
Speaker 1: Be like, when did you stop teaching civics for crying
Speaker 1: out loud? This is part of the breakdown in kids
Speaker 1: just being sucked into cultural Marxism because they're not taught
Speaker 1: about the wonder of democracy.
Speaker 5: It ain't perfect, but it's the best model we got.
Speaker 1: And if you think Venezuela has it better, kids, let's
Speaker 1: do a study on them still eating dogs in the streets.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is should never have been dropped from
Speaker 1: the curriculum, and now we're spending eighteen point four million
Speaker 1: dollars to reintroduce it back in so that kids can
Speaker 1: have an understanding of Western democracies are actually banging.
Speaker 5: I want to live in one of these.
Speaker 3: Significant portion of the eighteenth point four million dollars is
Speaker 3: to get teachers educated in there.
Speaker 4: I was going to say, very you mentioned George Orwell,
Speaker 4: self described socialist right of nine eighty four, you know,
Speaker 4: champion of freedom of speech, enemy of big brother, also
Speaker 4: a misogynist. There's been a lot of reviewing of George
Speaker 4: Orwell's relationship with women, and he didn't approve of feminism
Speaker 4: when he was in social So he's going to be
Speaker 4: reported to.
Speaker 6: Me regarding he's going to be.
Speaker 3: And not everything all well since before we leave, Before
Speaker 3: we leave the Adelaide Advertiser, there was a massive football
Speaker 3: game on at the weekend between the Port Power and
Speaker 3: the Port and the Adelaide Crows. But the front page
Speaker 3: has got a big photo as you can see if
Speaker 3: the Port Power mascot. The headline reads thunderstruck the person
Speaker 3: inside Port Adelaide's AFL mascot Thunder was left with a
Speaker 3: bloody nose after being punched by a minor during Saturday's
Speaker 3: spiteful showdown at Adelaide Oval. Now I believe it was
Speaker 3: a teenager who prior to the game, it was a
Speaker 3: crow supporter punched the mascot in the face.
Speaker 2: Government blood knows.
Speaker 3: Sometimes, Joe, you forget there's actually a person inside the costume.
Speaker 4: There's a person inside the furry, a person feeling him
Speaker 4: in the faith.
Speaker 2: A rival supporter on the other team.
Speaker 5: Leave the mascots.
Speaker 4: A lot of was portlow page job as it is
Speaker 4: was Port Adelaide's and not entirely on it.
Speaker 1: To the front page of the Canberra Times in one
Speaker 1: of my all time favorite topics, we are talking about
Speaker 1: pfasts forever chemicals.
Speaker 5: You're slowly being poisoned on a daily basis.
Speaker 1: Household plastics pose ninety five percent chance of health risks.
Speaker 1: Tell us more drinks, cans, food containers, even as cyclist's shorts.
Speaker 1: These everyday items made from different plastics carry a ninety
Speaker 1: five percent chance of seriously harming human health, a world
Speaker 1: first study has found.
Speaker 5: So it goes on to talk.
Speaker 1: About the fact that the study revealed evidence none of
Speaker 1: the products made from five classes of chemicals could be
Speaker 1: considered safe. The guy who heads up the plastic and
Speaker 1: Human health at the Mindaroo Foundation says our ability to
Speaker 1: reproduce endometriosis, miscarriages and polycystic ovarian syndrome in willem women
Speaker 1: rather as well as impacts on sperm concentration and DNA
Speaker 1: damage at birth. He's saying in children, we see loss
Speaker 1: of IQ points as well as high blood pressure, obesity.
Speaker 5: The list wears long.
Speaker 1: There is a reason why the st you can look
Speaker 1: this up, spend over two hundred and fifty billion dollars
Speaker 1: a year on the health effects associated with this consistent
Speaker 1: people in taking these microplastics on a daily basis. So
Speaker 1: on a daily basis people might be like, oh, this
Speaker 1: is just fear mongering, I feel fine, et cetera, and
Speaker 1: so on.
Speaker 5: It is building up in your system.
Speaker 1: They're called forever chemicals because they don't break down in
Speaker 1: the environment and they do not break down in your bodies.
Speaker 5: It's making us sick.
Speaker 1: And does the government do anything to crack down on
Speaker 1: all the companies using these chemicals in our everyday products?
Speaker 5: No, No, they don't.
Speaker 3: It's a shocking report. If you can get a copy
Speaker 3: of the Camera Times tomorrow. It's worth reading very quickly, Joe. Yes,
Speaker 3: the Daily Telegraph, the South Wales Liberals.
Speaker 6: Then New South Wales Liberals. They're just a mess.
Speaker 4: They're gone, They're terrible. I don't need the Daily Telegraph
Speaker 4: to tell me that, but I got it anyway. Yes,
Speaker 4: Captain Speakman in a titanic struggle. That is, of course
Speaker 4: Mark Speakman, the lead of the Liberal opposition in New
Speaker 4: South Wales. Sinking feeling reads the headline, and Liberal MPs
Speaker 4: have launched into Mark Speakman claim the opposition leader was
Speaker 4: warn the party was heading for an iceberg over the
Speaker 4: disastrous local government election ballots. I don't know what happens
Speaker 4: when an iceberg hits a bonfire, but it is going to.
Speaker 2: Be seeing it happen.
Speaker 5: We're about to find out.
Speaker 2: We're going to go to a break when we come back.
Speaker 3: Well, when we come back, what do we talk about
Speaker 3: when we come back, Liz, we are talking about a
Speaker 3: guy who was not unconscious when he got hit by
Speaker 3: it in the face by a whale's in.
Speaker 5: Just a moment, Well watchers beware.
Speaker 2: Welcome back will.
Speaker 3: The US presidential election continues to amuse Liz Donald Trump's latest.
Speaker 2: Ad is pretty good.
Speaker 5: I love it. How do you like this for our
Speaker 5: fundraising spiel?
Speaker 1: Now it is reported that his campaign already has way
Speaker 1: more money than the Harris campaign.
Speaker 5: Hold onto your hats.
Speaker 1: Not sure how long that will last, given Harris is
Speaker 1: still in her honeymoon period. But get this him asking
Speaker 1: Americans for a dollar.
Speaker 5: Or is he?
Speaker 6: Hello? Everyone? I only want you to donate to my
