Speaker 1: From the Skying Center. This is Paul Burray Live.
Speaker 2: Hello, Happy Monday, Welcome to the biggest no sooks, no
Speaker 2: lefty that I can possibly share.
Speaker 1: With you this Monday night.
Speaker 2: We had an awful lot to get to, including, of
Speaker 2: course no sooks, no lefties, James Morrow today Buddy and.
Speaker 1: Senator Matt Kennevan both joining us in a second.
Speaker 2: The Hope of the side you said the Price will
Speaker 2: join us as well, just in a Nampa gymp for Price.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, proper names.
Speaker 1: Here and how good was the greatest of all time?
Speaker 1: Getting around at.
Speaker 2: The Dayton of five hundred is a motorsport fan who's
Speaker 2: very excited for the supercars going around in Sydney this weekend.
Speaker 1: This thrilled my little bogan heart.
Speaker 3: See, we've had great recent on the track where we've
Speaker 3: got the President landed right now.
Speaker 2: I've been here four times before as a civilian, and
Speaker 2: now I'm in a different capacity.
Speaker 1: We love NASCAR, and we love the people of NASCAR.
Speaker 2: We love our country and it's truly an honor to
Speaker 2: be with all of you at the.
Speaker 1: Great American Race. Gentlemen, start your engines. This is truly
Speaker 1: an historic first, A sitting a United States President pacing
Speaker 1: the field for the Creative American Race. Oh how good?
Speaker 1: How good?
Speaker 2: Matchin now by trying to do that at See one
Speaker 2: at Bathurst, wouldn't even have the balls to show up
Speaker 2: to the race, Peter it Dutton did last year, Remember
Speaker 2: that motorsport fans. But first day one of a two
Speaker 2: day meeting of the Reserve Bank has been taking place.
Speaker 2: We know what the outcome is probably going to be,
Speaker 2: or at least what the media is expecting.
Speaker 4: Markets are all but certain that the Reserve Bank will
Speaker 4: cut the official interest rate tomorrow.
Speaker 5: Mortgage holders across Sydney could be less than twenty four
Speaker 5: hours away from their first interest rate relief in four years.
Speaker 2: But on this show I say the same thing over
Speaker 2: and over again, which is I'm not going to fall
Speaker 2: for the hype. A lot of people think this is
Speaker 2: going to be the beginning of the reset for the
Speaker 2: Abeneze government.
Speaker 1: But they thought that about two little too late tax cuts.
Speaker 2: They thought that, of course about the voice interesting poll
Speaker 2: in a slew of.
Speaker 1: Them that are around at the moment. You know, I'll
Speaker 1: try to show the data.
Speaker 2: That is the bricks. The opinion is the mortar in
Speaker 2: the wall that we build each and every night. Right track,
Speaker 2: wrong track. Fifty five percent of people say country is
Speaker 2: headed in the wrong direction. Just twenty seven believe that
Speaker 2: it's in the right direction. Break that down by age
Speaker 2: forty seven to twenty eight, fifty two to twenty nine,
Speaker 2: fifty seven to twenty seven, and sixty three to twenty six.
Speaker 2: All age groups believe that we are headed in the
Speaker 2: wrong direction. Majorities from thirty five up until the oldest
Speaker 2: person that will be voting later this year, twenty five percent,
Speaker 2: a quarter, a quarter of labor voters think that their
Speaker 2: country is headed in the wrong direction. Seventy three percent
Speaker 2: of people planning to vote against the government directly, fifty
Speaker 2: three percent of Greens because they presume it's not headed
Speaker 2: in too much of a left direction. But that other number,
Speaker 2: everything from the real independence to the Teel independence to
Speaker 2: one nation and any and everything in between. Seventy five
Speaker 2: percent of people think the joint is headed in the
Speaker 2: wrong direction. So whatever happens tomorrow, that is not going
Speaker 2: to change. Numbers that big, that deep, are fundamental, They
Speaker 2: are baked in. There may be some very slight movement
Speaker 2: between now and whenever the election will be called, but
Speaker 2: I don't think there's going to be much moved between
Speaker 2: now and when the election actually happens. And also it
Speaker 2: is again worth pointing out that even if zero point
Speaker 2: two five percent is what the Reserve Bank decided to
Speaker 2: cut tomorrow, this is how much you can expect to
Speaker 2: save off what you have been spending in extra loan
Speaker 2: repayments since Albo became the Prime Minister in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 2: Ninety two dollars a month. That's it for people paying
Speaker 2: off six hundred, one hundred and fifteen for seven hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty or one hundred fifty to two hundred dollars.
Speaker 2: If you're between say one and one and a half
Speaker 2: million dollars, Again, no one's going to be saying, oh,
Speaker 2: I don't want the money. But no one is also
Speaker 2: going to say that when that many people in that
Speaker 2: many directions, including a quarter of labor people think we're
Speaker 2: headed in the wrong direction, that anything magically is going
Speaker 2: to be changing if by this time tomorrow night we're.
Speaker 1: Talking about interest rate cut.
Speaker 2: Now, as a person trying to pay off a house,
Speaker 2: I want interest rates cut, no question. As a person
Speaker 2: who has shown you the data about the per capita
Speaker 2: recession that we have been in for the best part
Speaker 2: of two years. I want an interest rate cut. I
Speaker 2: want them to halve interest rates. So I am not
Speaker 2: cheering for anything but a reduction in interest rates. But when,
Speaker 2: as I have relentlessly shown you, the total amount of
Speaker 2: your repayments that have gone up since twenty twenty two
Speaker 2: and twelve of the thirteen interest rate rises under Albow,
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. You can say Hallalujah ninety two dollars if
Speaker 2: you've paid twenty two thousand and four hundred and ten
Speaker 2: dollars extra each year on a six hundred thousand dollars loan,
Speaker 2: are you really going to be singing hallelujah twenty nine
Speaker 2: thousand on an eight hundred thousand dollar known thirty seven
Speaker 2: thousand dollars on a one million dollar loan, or forty
Speaker 2: four thousand, eight hundred forty five thousand dollars you have
Speaker 2: had to find on top of what you're already paying.
Speaker 2: That's each year, So you can double those numbers for
Speaker 2: twenty two plus twenty three and twenty four. It's extraordinary
Speaker 2: the amount of money people have had to spend on
Speaker 2: their mortgages. And also just to show that it is
Speaker 2: not just me scribbling in crayon in my padded cell
Speaker 2: between shows.
Speaker 1: Where I'm sure lefties think I actually live.
Speaker 2: There are plenty of other people who have this view,
Speaker 2: who can see the reality that even if rates are cut,
Speaker 2: there is not about to be a party in the
Speaker 2: streets like it's the end of World War two. One
Speaker 2: and a half million people in austral are sitting through
Speaker 2: mortgage stress right now, and what is being described as
Speaker 2: throwing a cup of water at a bushfire would be
Speaker 2: the equivalent of what might happen tomorrow. A person who
Speaker 2: is with a property tech service called be Right says
Speaker 2: this is Aaron Scott. A rate cut might sound like
Speaker 2: good news on the surface, but in reality it's unlikely
Speaker 2: to make meaningful difference to many homeowners who are already
Speaker 2: stretching their financial limits. A single rate cut is like
Speaker 2: getting a four cent discount of two dollars of fuel.
Speaker 2: It might make you feel good, but the saving is
Speaker 2: gone by the time you lead the servo. Good point,
Speaker 2: unless you've got half a dozen cuts that are lined up.
Speaker 1: One drop in rates won't.
Speaker 2: Move the needle for most household budgets, that's my point.
Speaker 2: And if those household budgets are directly linked to people's
Speaker 2: financial circumstances and thus what bleeds into our political beliefs
Speaker 2: about whom we believe responsible. You can have the team
Speaker 2: with one interest rate rise of the one with twelve
Speaker 2: since they started going up in twenty and twenty two.
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure where a huge bulk of people are,
Speaker 2: and those people, of course are in the suburbs where
Speaker 2: the bet is they may well vote Liberal for the
Speaker 2: first time, or if they vote something like one Nation,
Speaker 2: they would definitely send their preferences back to the Libs
Speaker 2: because they don't want a continuation of this government and
Speaker 2: its pain. Remember the central promise of the alban Easy
Speaker 2: opposition before government was to make the cost of living lower.
Speaker 1: All of it has gone.
Speaker 2: Up, some of it since it has gone up, has
Speaker 2: come down a little bit, but all of it, all
Speaker 2: of it is higher than when they made that promise.
Speaker 2: I hope you remember that. I hope your friends remember that.
Speaker 2: And if they don't see this program, share the video
Speaker 2: when it's uploaded to sky on news dot com that
Speaker 2: are you or up on our YouTube channel. It's small
Speaker 2: business to lots of people who work in that particular facilities,
Speaker 2: and we know that ninety seven percent of Australian businesses
Speaker 2: are small businesses. Of those, about seventy percent are sole traders,
Speaker 2: so the rest are people who maybe employ one, at
Speaker 2: least one or maybe a couple of extra people. Now,
Speaker 2: interesting article today in the nine websites where they are
Speaker 2: saying that small business is in a recession. They are
Speaker 2: going backwards as opposed to the public service which is thriving.
Speaker 2: Why because it's your money that is paying for the
Speaker 2: public service and the credit card that is just being
Speaker 2: tap and god every five seconds by this government record levels.
Speaker 2: Now we know what the Labor Party thinks of small
Speaker 2: business because when the Liberal Party have put forward their
Speaker 2: idea for the same tax rules to apply to small
Speaker 2: business as big business when it comes to entertaining like
Speaker 2: you being able to go to the pub and take
Speaker 2: a potential client or maybe your biggest customer out for
Speaker 2: a schnitzel. This is the way the Labor Party is
Speaker 2: turning you, the small business owner into a caricature.
Speaker 1: Long lunches paid for by the taxpayer.
Speaker 6: For bosses are the lips for real?
Speaker 5: What's next?
Speaker 7: Couldn't you feed up at your desk at work smoking
Speaker 7: a cigar?
Speaker 2: That's what they think if you have a takeaway food business,
Speaker 2: if you've got a lawn mowing run, if you're a
Speaker 2: person who runs a hairdressers, that's what they think of you.
Speaker 2: They think you're a boss sitting around waiting to smoke
Speaker 2: a cigar. I'm stand up for the cigar smokers of Australia,
Speaker 2: but you get my point. Remember, even in the Parliament,
Speaker 2: a person who's earning more than four hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 2: who gets to go to sport for free because she's
Speaker 2: the Sports Minister as well as the age ke Minister
Speaker 2: making you pay more for services in your retirement. She
Speaker 2: thinks that small business.
Speaker 1: Has got so much extra cash lying around that you
Speaker 1: could go to the superbar.
Speaker 8: According to the coalitions publicly defined parameters of their own policy,
Speaker 8: business could spand up to twenty thousand dollars of Elizabeth's
Speaker 8: own taxpayer funds to attend something like, for example, the
Speaker 8: Super Bowl, to lather themselves in buffalo wings and babyback ribs.
Speaker 8: Nodding along to Kendrick Lamar.
Speaker 2: That's their vision of small business. If you work for one,
Speaker 2: that's how little they care. If you run one, that's
Speaker 2: what they really think of you. You are surplus to requirements.
Speaker 2: You see the modern left beliefs that you should be
Speaker 2: dependent on the government through welfare, or you should be
Speaker 2: dependent on the government by working for them, or if
Speaker 2: you are a private business, your biggest customer should be
Speaker 2: the government. Therefore, don't upset the upper cart. Keep voting labor,
Speaker 2: Keep voting labor. The disastrous results of that are how
Speaker 2: Victoria exists right now and why the Labor government lost
Speaker 2: so badly in Queensland after they had been in charge
Speaker 2: for the best part of thirty years in a row. Well,
Speaker 2: the ABS put out some stats that show the number
Speaker 2: of people who are employed in private business in Australia.
Speaker 2: The bottom one is the one that I want you
Speaker 2: to pay attention to, where the total number of people
Speaker 2: working for a small business on top of the boss.
Speaker 2: You can see where it was and it's basically the same.
Speaker 2: Nothing has changed. In fact, the total number of people
Speaker 2: has gone backwards. In September of twenty twenty two, nine
Speaker 2: hundred and thirty thousand people worked as well as the
Speaker 2: owner in a small business. In December of last year
Speaker 2: it is nine hundred and twenty one thousand, so over
Speaker 2: the entirety of their time in government post COVID, No
Speaker 2: COVID blame. The total number of people working for a
Speaker 2: small business has gone backwards, Yet they are arrogant enough
Speaker 2: to run around and pretend that it's about you know,
Speaker 2: smoking cigars with the monocle and the top hat, or
Speaker 2: you're going to blow cash going to the Super Bowl. Meantime,
Speaker 2: public servants, they have added well and truly where small
Speaker 2: business has not. So small business has gone down by
Speaker 2: the best part of nine thousand employees. The total number
Speaker 2: of extra people working for the federal government thirty six
Speaker 2: thousand people. A football stadium of people working for the government,
Speaker 2: while small business has nine thousand fewer people working for
Speaker 2: it now than when this mob took office. Pay attention.
Speaker 2: This is what they truly think about Australians who want
Speaker 2: to be in charge of their own future, not reliant
Speaker 2: and dependent on the government via welfare, via working for
Speaker 2: them or them as your biggest customer. Now, I want
Speaker 2: to drill down even further into the discussion at the
Speaker 2: moment around polls that are absolutely showing that Liberal Party
Speaker 2: has its nose in front right now going into an election.
Speaker 2: Petty Dutton is confident that he will win the election.
Speaker 4: There's no doubt in my mind that we can win
Speaker 4: the election. I have been in marginal campaign for the
Speaker 4: last quarter of a century. Not only do I think
Speaker 4: we can win up it, more importantly, I think we
Speaker 4: can serve the country well.
Speaker 2: And every day there is a pole that points us
Speaker 2: in that direction. Every day the bookies remain and I
Speaker 2: check every day because of the changes. I'll tell you
Speaker 2: on the telly, they believe there will be a change
Speaker 2: of government. I hope there is a change in government.
Speaker 2: But I am offering the asorisk here because I don't
Speaker 2: want to anyone waking up like labor people felt in
Speaker 2: twenty nineteen, because I think there are some similar dynamics
Speaker 2: which are at play. But even more, polling is getting
Speaker 2: better for the opposition and worse for the government now
Speaker 2: as we know, the polling that was around yesterday showed
Speaker 2: that seventy three seats was the way that the Opposition
Speaker 2: was starting to head towards, meaning they only need three
Speaker 2: to get to a majority. They would be pretty easily
Speaker 2: able to find. When you think about people like Rebecca Sharky,
Speaker 2: when you think about people like Bob Katter, both of
Speaker 2: whom have said who have has the most number of
Speaker 2: seats they would get on board, and allegedly a Languis
Speaker 2: spender is suggesting that she is willing to work with them.
Speaker 2: She's one of the only Teals willing to do so. Now, also,
Speaker 2: what brews to that point is not just what Newspop
Speaker 2: popped up today again showing fifty one to forty nine
Speaker 2: in favor of the coalition, but a majority of Australians
Speaker 2: believeing it's time to give someone else a go after
Speaker 2: three terrible years of this terrible government. Thirty four percent
Speaker 2: of people, which is basically the Labor Party primary vote,
Speaker 2: believe this government deserves a second term. Fifty three percent
Speaker 2: believe it doesn't. Now when that fifty three, we're talking
Speaker 2: about anyone from a real independent voter to a Teal
Speaker 2: voter to agree to One Nation, libertarian and all in between. Interestingly,
Speaker 2: once you start to slicingize this by states, fifty percent
Speaker 2: of people in New South Wales say it's time for
Speaker 2: a change, fifty four percent of people in Victoria and
Speaker 2: fifty eight percent of people in Queensend.
Speaker 1: All of that great, great, great good, good good.
Speaker 2: Now of the seats that the Redbridge polling, and this
Speaker 2: is going to be twenty marginal seats that they're going
Speaker 2: to have.
Speaker 1: A look at every two weeks.
Speaker 2: It's going to be as close to publicly available information
Speaker 2: as the tracking pole that both Labor and Liberal run
Speaker 2: where they also monitor twenty seats and they basically get
Speaker 2: a daily report. It's very expensive to do so, so
Speaker 2: for us to get basically the same information every two
Speaker 2: weeks before the election, and then, as Coss Samaras told
Speaker 2: us on our last night, every week during the election,
Speaker 2: it's really fascinating.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 2: The reason they say that seventy three seats becomes the
Speaker 2: option is because many existing Labor seats would go to
Speaker 2: the coalition.
Speaker 1: These are the seats that they.
Speaker 2: Are suggesting is going to change in Victoria, New South Wales,
Speaker 2: Western Australia and Tasmania. They also believe that there will
Speaker 2: be some changes in again plenty more there in New
Speaker 2: South Wales. The rich pickings basically been New South Wales
Speaker 2: as the top seed where fifty percent of people say
Speaker 2: it's time for somebody else to have a guard and
Speaker 2: the others coming from Victoria, which is fifty four percent
Speaker 2: of people.
Speaker 1: Saying it's time for change.
Speaker 2: But for that to actually take place, there's a couple
Speaker 2: of campaign tactics that I want to talk about here
Speaker 2: because there is one thing that absolutely overlaps with those
Speaker 2: seats that the pollsters are telling us are the most
Speaker 2: likely bricks in the red wall to fall, and what
Speaker 2: their view was of the referendum back in twenty twenty three. Now,
Speaker 2: remember the public polling when Albou was running around the
Speaker 2: country in the s T shirt, was that the Labor
Speaker 2: Party was still well and truly out in front of
Speaker 2: the opposition. They then spent a year and four hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty million dollars on a referendum and they have
Speaker 2: never recovered from it since. So the seats set to change, Aston, Gilmore, Bullwinkle, Benelong, Lions, Tangy, Well,
Speaker 2: what do they all have in common? They all voted
Speaker 2: no Aston at fifty seven percent, Gilmore at sixty one
Speaker 2: percent and Cured at sixty percent, Lions in Tasmania at
Speaker 2: sixty seven percent, plus a whole collection of others. As
Speaker 2: you can see, the lowest number there is what the
Speaker 2: mid fifties. The highest number there is A's seventy percent.
Speaker 2: So seats like Hunter and Patterson, which I openly speculated
Speaker 2: last night on the air, was really at the tipito
Speaker 2: end of the expectations part of the Liberal Party thinking,
Speaker 2: he is that if seventy percent of people thought the
Speaker 2: Prime Minister had the wrong idea when it came to
Speaker 2: the referendum, that he had the wrong priorities because cost
Speaker 2: of living was the cost of living fire was raging
Speaker 2: at that point in time. That being reminded of the
Speaker 2: Prime minister's priority when you were suffering the beginnings of
Speaker 2: what became three terrible years financially could be something that
Speaker 2: will move the needle. But for that to happen, will
Speaker 2: Liberal Party operatives have the courage to use the image
Speaker 2: of the Prime minige to wearing the shirt advocating the
Speaker 2: position that all of those seats strongly voted against. I
Speaker 2: don't know whoever's doing the social media, particularly for Michaulia Cash,
Speaker 2: they have worked this out and virtually every time they
Speaker 2: mention him, they mentioned him with that T shirt In so,
Speaker 2: will the Liberal Party make.
Speaker 1: The yes T shirt?
Speaker 2: What I don't hold a hose was for the Labor
Speaker 2: Party in Scott Morrison. If so, that is going to
Speaker 2: be a little bit of the secret sauce here of
Speaker 2: something that Australians spent a year learning about the Prime
Speaker 2: Minister being in the wrong spot when they demanded that
Speaker 2: he would be where they wanted instead. Remember in that
Speaker 2: year when he spent four hundred and fifty million dollars
Speaker 2: and he was advocating.
Speaker 1: What the majority of the country did not want.
Speaker 2: That's when they took fifteen hundred dollars off ten million taxpayers.
Speaker 2: It's one thing for me to make the statement here
Speaker 2: as an observer, but of course I'm not a participant.
Speaker 2: Let's see how those messages start coming through. Let's see
Speaker 2: how the social media war plays between now and when
Speaker 2: the election starts. Because right now the Libs they are
Speaker 2: somewhat near the target, but they are not over the
Speaker 2: top of it. If they believe that there is a
Speaker 2: direct correlation between places that voted no and places that
Speaker 2: will vote Liberal at this election, are they tying the
Speaker 2: Prime Minister to the position all of those places around
Speaker 2: Australia didn't just vote no, but voted hell no. Two
Speaker 2: interesting news around the Teals today their big financial group
Speaker 2: that backs them Climate two hundred. Now they will not
Speaker 2: have their wings clipped at all at this election. You
Speaker 2: should know that all of the supposed funding changes that
Speaker 2: are going to make their way. They do not apply
Speaker 2: at this election. They will apply the next election. Why
Speaker 2: because the government wants as many Teals in the Parliament
Speaker 2: as possible so that they can harness them to form
Speaker 2: minority government. But fascinating thing I wanted to mention here
Speaker 2: they have said that they are going to start going
Speaker 2: after Labour candidates. Now they basically had a one hundred
Speaker 2: percent run against Libs, they're still running the extreme majority
Speaker 2: against the lib thirty five seats that they're going to
Speaker 2: have candidates in with money, including the seat of Gilmour,
Speaker 2: one of the most marginal in the country. This is
Speaker 2: the one on the south coast of New South Wales.
Speaker 2: This is the one that has beautiful Bateman's Bay right
Speaker 2: in the heart of it. And we are going to
Speaker 2: be in Bateman's Bay on Sunday for our town. But
Speaker 2: we're also going to be in Bateman's Bay this time
Speaker 2: next week for the first of our pub tests, the
Speaker 2: opportunity for local candidates to join us to answer the
Speaker 2: questions of the first one hundred people to respond. One
Speaker 2: of the independent candidates who says she is not a
Speaker 2: Teal will be receiving money. According to The Guardian Today
Speaker 2: and the claims of Climate two hundred that they will
Speaker 2: at least try to send money to her campaign. She
Speaker 2: will be there to answer questions on Monday night, as
Speaker 2: will the Liberal Party's candidate who ran it the last
Speaker 2: election and hopes to get a different result of this election.
Speaker 1: The former Transport Ministry so well was Andrew Constance.
Speaker 2: We have asked the Labor Party currently No, we've asked
Speaker 2: the Greens currently know we will keep an empty seat
Speaker 2: for them. But if you are anywhere near the seat
Speaker 2: of Gilmour and you have a vote, do you have
Speaker 2: a question for the two people who are challenging for
Speaker 2: the seat, join us this time next week. Send me
Speaker 2: an email to say you want to turn up at
Speaker 2: pubtest at skynews dot com dot A. You also tell
Speaker 2: me the question that you would like to ask both
Speaker 2: the Liberal and the Independent pubtest at skynews dot com
Speaker 2: dot AU. I want to fill the room, but I
Speaker 2: also want to fill the room with people who want
Speaker 2: to ask questions. Okay, because it's not about me and
Speaker 2: ow pitch to all of the candidates. Is it is
Speaker 2: about the first one hundred people to get in the room.
Speaker 2: The first one hundred people to get in the room Okay,
Speaker 2: we know if the thing's being stacked when you know
Speaker 2: twenty people at once ask because that's obviously someone from
Speaker 2: the different candidate groups. I want one hundred people who
Speaker 2: live on the South Coast who've got a question for
Speaker 2: the local Independent or the local Liberal about not just
Speaker 2: their area but the country in general, including which way
Speaker 2: they would vote should there be.
Speaker 1: A hung parliament. It is pubtest, it's goynews dot com
Speaker 1: dot au.
Speaker 2: Now with the Australia. Remember there was quite the outrage,
Speaker 2: quite the outrage when Peter Dutton in the budgeting reply
Speaker 2: speech last year dropped perhaps his most popular policy won
Speaker 2: agreed by about seventy five percent of people in marginal seats.
Speaker 4: We will implement a two year ban on foreign investors
Speaker 4: and temporary residents purchasing existing homes in Australia.
Speaker 1: And you remember Labor hated the idea.
Speaker 9: It'll cost the economy billions of dollars. But even the
Speaker 9: kinds of estimates that you will see are conservative because
Speaker 9: it's not possible to fully capture the damage that Peter
Speaker 9: Dutton would do to the skills base of this country.
Speaker 2: Meantime, remember Lefty Laura Tingle, she was out there the
Speaker 2: Writers Festival circuit, pretending that Peter Dutton's evil uga booger
Speaker 2: policies was going to result in people going after people
Speaker 2: who look different.
Speaker 6: I had flash of people turning out to try to
Speaker 6: read a property or in an auction and they look
Speaker 6: a bit different. What do you defined different as basically
Speaker 6: has given them.
Speaker 10: Licensed to the abused.
Speaker 2: Well, guess what the Labor Party is now going to
Speaker 2: introduce exactly the same policy, Not exactly exactly because they're
Speaker 2: still going to let foreign buyers buy things off the plan.
Speaker 2: But they too, via the Housing Minister, Clueless Clare O'Neil,
Speaker 2: are now matching the policy of which they said would
Speaker 2: ruin the budget when it was Peter Dutton's idea last year.
Speaker 2: But they think you're stupid and you won't remember.
Speaker 11: It's not a silver bullet to the housing crisis, because
Speaker 11: there is no silver bullet. But I really firmly believe
Speaker 11: that given the housing pressures that Australians are facing today,
Speaker 11: we need to orient the entire efforts of the Australian
Speaker 11: government around security of housing for Australians and wherever possible,
Speaker 11: home ownership for a broader range of young Australians.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the met to election labor desperately trying to say
Speaker 2: we'll do it as well.
Speaker 1: We'll do it as well.
Speaker 2: That policy has had support seventy five percent of people.
Speaker 1: In marginal electorates.
Speaker 2: I do not believe that the Libs have talked about
Speaker 2: that policy enough, so it may end up being a.
Speaker 1: Little bit of a political wash. But watch this space.
Speaker 1: There is plenty more to it.
Speaker 2: A couple of other things I want to mention before
Speaker 2: we are done the seedning and get into Nosook's No
Speaker 2: Lefties or wrap up might beit as soon as possible
Speaker 2: so we can get to the debate and discussion at
Speaker 2: a moment or two time. Excellent report on sixty minutes
Speaker 2: last night in and around how the use of cab charges,
Speaker 2: particularly with older or disabled people, is being ripped off
Speaker 2: by people who are driving certain cabs. Go back and
Speaker 2: try and find that story online, but it is pretty amazing.
Speaker 2: But put simply, what they were able to prove was
Speaker 2: that the passenger may well be handed a receipt, but
Speaker 2: the actual amount of money that gets charged back to
Speaker 2: the cab charge ends being hundreds of dollars for what
Speaker 2: might be a thirty to fifty dollars fare. Now, I
Speaker 2: do not understand in the world of technology that we
Speaker 2: live in now that we still have this absurd situation
Speaker 2: where you've got the meter, but the meter doesn't automatically
Speaker 2: tell the FPOs machine what should be being charged. Instead,
Speaker 2: as you know anyone who's been in a cab, there's
Speaker 2: this bit where they add extra numbers and the nighttime bit,
Speaker 2: and that we went over the tolls. So it might
Speaker 2: be sorta close, but unless you're really paying attention, there's
Speaker 2: an opportunity here for some extra dollars to be added
Speaker 2: or their scenarios where cab charges are being handed over,
Speaker 2: a receipt is being produced, but the actual amount of
Speaker 2: money being taken on the cab charge is hundreds and
Speaker 2: hundreds of dollars. This matters because many of the people
Speaker 2: with those cab charges. It's part of the ndis we
Speaker 2: should have a system that is exactly the same as
Speaker 2: the one who's ever any driven or written in a
Speaker 2: cab in a place like New York where the driver
Speaker 2: is not the one entering the detail. Well, you can
Speaker 2: see it ticking over in the meter, the meter immediately
Speaker 2: to the little screen out the back, Tap and go,
Speaker 2: tap and go, tap and go. Surely some system could
Speaker 2: be presented there. Well done to that story out of
Speaker 2: the United States. Now rugby league is just but a
Speaker 2: week and a bit away from its great start, this
Speaker 2: show piece start.
Speaker 1: Where they go to Las Vegas.
Speaker 2: What a once in a lifetime opportunity to go to Vegas,
Speaker 2: let alone to be a footy fan in Vegas. Well,
Speaker 2: Peter Velandi's the genius behind all of this. The man
Speaker 2: who has made rugby league the strongest it has ever
Speaker 2: ever been, was on American television today and he has
Speaker 2: invited the President of the United States to do what
Speaker 2: he did to the Super.
Speaker 1: Bowl, to do what he did at Daytona. Come and
Speaker 1: watch rugby league in Vegas. Mister President.
Speaker 7: We want to introduce you to the toughest game on Earth,
Speaker 7: rugby league in the world's sport and entertainment capital, Las Vegas.
Speaker 7: Our players don't wear pads or helmets. As you know,
Speaker 7: mister President. The US has a trade surplus with Australia,
Speaker 7: one of the rare countries you are tending, will balance
Speaker 7: this out a bit. Hope to see you at Allegiance
Speaker 7: Stadium in Las Vegas on Saturday, March one.
Speaker 2: Brilliant, brilliant American TV, American TV. The President is watching,
Speaker 2: so fingers crossed, the Donald might be there turning up
Speaker 2: at Allegiance Stadium. But what I can guarantee is that
Speaker 2: we will be there to see it with our own eyes,
Speaker 2: because Paul Murray Live is going to Vegas.
Speaker 1: I love driving in the States. I love hanging out
Speaker 1: in the sunshine.
Speaker 2: I love going from LA to drive through Palm Springs
Speaker 2: to roll into Vegas where we will be at Allegiance
Speaker 2: Stadium for the game. We will be in Vegas a
Speaker 2: few days before, so you will come with us on
Speaker 2: the footy trip of a lifetime where maybe, just maybe
Speaker 2: the Donald is going to watch the best game of
Speaker 2: footy he's ever seen. Break Back with More, no Sooks,
Speaker 2: no Lefties, Bateman's Bay, Gilmore Pub, Test, Vegas. How good
Speaker 2: is being on Paul Murray Life? Hey, thanks for watching.
Speaker 2: As you know, I like wearing the big silver rings
Speaker 2: all the time.
Speaker 1: You know, a bit of rock and roll whatever. There
Speaker 1: will always be that rebel inside me. Right. Well, there's
Speaker 1: one ring that's probably just a little bit too big
Speaker 1: for my finger.
Speaker 2: It's it's on my left hand and it falls off
Speaker 2: the hand every now and then, and I've had all
Speaker 2: sorts of experiences trying to collect it, including last year
Speaker 2: Christmas time, around Christmas party season. I just threw, you know,
Speaker 2: canna coke in a bin at a servo. It came off,
Speaker 2: and I had to take all of the contents of
Speaker 2: the bin of the service station and sift through it.
Speaker 1: And it's a disgusting task to find the ring.
Speaker 2: Well, just in case any of the cleaners are watching
Speaker 2: here at Sky news Men's toilet, I think it's dropped
Speaker 2: somewhere inside the paper towel bin, all right, So that's
Speaker 2: where I'll be straight after the show.
Speaker 1: Anyone says a cleaner going near the toot stop stop stop, I'll.
Speaker 2: Pay the overtime. No such problems to James Morrow when
Speaker 2: he either hosts this program as he did excellently last week,
Speaker 2: or on the outside of his program because he chooses
Speaker 2: to wear the.
Speaker 1: One ring that matters. That's it.
Speaker 12: And you know, I'll tell you what these rings falling off,
Speaker 12: These are a symptom of what life is like under labor.
Speaker 12: We just have rings flying off all over the place.
Speaker 12: There are a metaphor for the profligacy of this government
Speaker 12: which feds money like their rings flying off of your finger.
Speaker 1: Correct, Matt Canavan.
Speaker 2: He's just only got the one ring that matters all
Speaker 2: the rest of this show because he's not involved in.
Speaker 3: Altho first first wife, Paul third wedding ring.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the other way around. O. When when was the
Speaker 1: first time yellow?
Speaker 3: He once lost the touch twenty one? We're trying to
Speaker 3: find it for about four hours.
Speaker 1: That's terrible. I remember I lost a ring.
Speaker 2: I lost another ring which I was given by my
Speaker 2: beautiful now wife back when we were in high schoo
Speaker 2: high school swear, and I lost that on the back
Speaker 2: of a jet ski on the Gold Coast.
Speaker 1: That wasn't a great conversation.
Speaker 3: Wow, you're not going to find that?
Speaker 1: No, all right. So you're at ARC.
Speaker 2: You're there as part of the Conservative conference that's happening
Speaker 2: in London. I love this thing because it is big brains,
Speaker 2: big thinkers. Peter Credline of course, is hosting all week
Speaker 2: from there. What's your contribution going to be apart from
Speaker 2: meeting some incredible people, Matt, Yeah.
Speaker 3: Look, I'm speaking on a panel on energy tomorrow. That's
Speaker 3: obviously a big passion of mine. But look, the main
Speaker 3: thing I'm here for is to regain our confidence this
Speaker 3: is the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship ARC conference, but I
Speaker 3: suppose you could call the Association for Regaining Confidence. That's
Speaker 3: what it's about. It's about making sure that we don't
Speaker 3: have to apologize. I shouldn't apologize for our heritage, our
Speaker 3: history and what it has delivered to the world. We
Speaker 3: shouldn't be scared of people speaking their minds in free countries,
Speaker 3: which many governments seem to be. Now, we shouldn't resile
Speaker 3: from the fact that we can respect how people want
Speaker 3: to live their lives, but still promote the fact that
Speaker 3: having a biological mother and father raise a child is
Speaker 3: the best known way to bring people into the world.
Speaker 3: And of course we need to defend our own countries
Speaker 3: from those that want to do us harm. That needs
Speaker 3: to me developing our own country, developing our energy resources.
Speaker 3: That I'm very passionate about keeping ourselves strong, because there
Speaker 3: is something worth defending in our country in Australia and
Speaker 3: a lot of other like minded countries that we're friends
Speaker 3: with around the democratic world.
Speaker 2: Well, and I'm pleased to say a lot of these
Speaker 2: panels they are going to be up online.
Speaker 1: They're certainly going to be covet at sky News Dot
Speaker 1: com that are you.
Speaker 2: And again Peter's over there because she's got plenty to
Speaker 2: say and to add to the movement. You'll see that
Speaker 2: at six o'clock each and every night here on Sky News. James,
Speaker 2: I love that clear. I mean, you know, the left's
Speaker 2: got every conference in the world, from Davos all the
Speaker 2: way through to know Greta Thumburg's Sharehouse.
Speaker 1: Good to see this for conservatives, well, you know it is.
Speaker 12: I went to the conference in Sydney last year. I
Speaker 12: was going to go to this, but I was traveling
Speaker 12: so much last year It's kind of felt like I
Speaker 12: had to be in Sydney for a bit.
Speaker 1: But I will say this.
Speaker 12: So we've got a great piece in Tomorrow's Daily Telegraph
Speaker 12: from Tony Abbott, who is also there right now, and
Speaker 12: he talks about how, you know, this conference is all
Speaker 12: about maintaining these precious freedoms that we enjoy in Western civilization,
Speaker 12: freedom of speech, association, freedom of religion. And I think
Speaker 12: the big thing, the big problem that we have right now,
Speaker 12: matn Paul, is that we are in a since where
Speaker 12: we see the love of these values in retreat everywhere
Speaker 12: I think except the United States right now. And you
Speaker 12: look at the way everybody in Europe has reacted to
Speaker 12: jd Vance's speech. Unique just so, the head of the
Speaker 12: Munich conference was in tears.
Speaker 10: I can't believe.
Speaker 1: She us, you know.
Speaker 12: And it's like you've got people in Germany saying, oh,
Speaker 12: you know, you're going to jail for a tweet.
Speaker 1: And you had even on CBS today you.
Speaker 12: Had them say, oh, well, the reason why the Holocaust
Speaker 12: happened was people in Germany had too much free speech.
Speaker 12: This is what we're up against, guys, this is what
Speaker 12: we're again. So yes, good on the people at Rack.
Speaker 12: I'll see you next year.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And it's an all day, every day fight.
Speaker 2: So Barnaby Joyce is being put in the deep freeze
Speaker 2: by the people who lead the National Party, that being
Speaker 2: David Little Proud. Now, first we had told you that
Speaker 2: the plan was that basically because he's a shadow minister,
Speaker 2: he will not be given permission to leave basically his
Speaker 2: seat during the election campaign.
Speaker 1: We now learn that.
Speaker 2: Should there well after the election, that David Little Proud
Speaker 2: will not put him forward for either a position in
Speaker 2: a shadow cabinet or the full cabinet, or because of
Speaker 2: an apparent daliance with potentially joining One Nation now.
Speaker 1: Pauline Hansen, for her part.
Speaker 2: Has put her side of the story out there tonight
Speaker 2: via her Facebook page.
Speaker 1: Please explain.
Speaker 13: It was an article in today's paper about Barnaby Joyce. Well,
Speaker 13: what a storm in the teacup. But we can expect
Speaker 13: that of what's going to come out and lead up
Speaker 13: to the selection. You know, the lies that have been
Speaker 13: spread out there because people have self interest. I asked
Speaker 13: Barnaby guess what. He came back and said, thanks Pauline,
Speaker 13: but no, thank you. So he's remade loyal to one
Speaker 13: to the Nationals. I should say I would like him
Speaker 13: across the One Nation, but he said no, he's remained
Speaker 13: loyal to the National Party.
Speaker 1: Now, Matt, I don't know what you can. I don't
Speaker 1: know if you want to get involved in this one.
Speaker 1: But what's going on. I mean, Barnaby Joyce is a.
Speaker 2: Rock star to the people who are the core support
Speaker 2: of the National Party. I get that outside of that
Speaker 2: he might play very differently in a Teal seat, but
Speaker 2: I don't care about those seats.
Speaker 3: What do you think, Well, look, obviously I love Barnaby.
Speaker 3: I think he did a great job at the last election.
Speaker 3: Look the proof is in the pudding. The Nationals Party
Speaker 3: did not lose a single seat when Barnaby Joyce was
Speaker 3: leader at the last election. In fact, Barnaby has led
Speaker 3: a coalition to two elections and neither time did he
Speaker 3: lose a seat. He gain seats that both would gained
Speaker 3: a Senate seat at the last election. We're running in
Speaker 3: a competitive position today to win the next election thanks
Speaker 3: to the performance of the Nationals Party, not just at
Speaker 3: the last election, but really since two thousand and seven.
Speaker 3: The National's Party have notlested a seat since then, so
Speaker 3: look been part of that. I think we should revere
Speaker 3: our former leaders as someone who's proud of the National's Party.
Speaker 3: And I certainly would never leave the National's Party. Is
Speaker 3: Barnaby won't do either. And if there's anybody behind these stories,
Speaker 3: I don't know. You never hear their names, obviously, it's
Speaker 3: all our names sort of stuff. They're all very brave.
Speaker 3: I just wish they'd shut up. I mean, the focus
Speaker 3: now should be on winning the election. That's what we've
Speaker 3: got to do. And anybody talking about dividing up the
Speaker 3: spoils of victory, well you're going to not get there
Speaker 3: if you're focused on that. You've got to focus on
Speaker 3: getting across the finish line first.
Speaker 2: Well again, I mean the best case scenario in the
Speaker 2: polling right now is seventy three. And even then I
Speaker 2: think that's a little bit top of your tippy toe.
Speaker 2: See what happens, right, So anyone thinking that, oh, well
Speaker 2: they've won this one, all they need to do is
Speaker 2: just keep doing what they're doing. Labor made that mistake
Speaker 2: in twenty nineteen. But let's get to the Barnaby joyce
Speaker 2: of it all. Obviously there are people who don't like him,
Speaker 2: but I'm sorry they don't understand the number of people
Speaker 2: that are the ones that will go and do how
Speaker 2: to votes, the ones that will knock on the doors.
Speaker 1: How many of those people do like him?
Speaker 12: Yeah, and I think you know, there's a couple of
Speaker 12: things play here. I mean, number one, you're always going
Speaker 12: to have as you come into an election, there's going
Speaker 12: to be all these stories but people trying to split parties,
Speaker 12: split one nation, split split nationals, one nation, all that
Speaker 12: sort of thing. But you know there's another thing too.
Speaker 12: Barnaby has been a very strong speaker against that. Zero
Speaker 12: So people don't like him because of that, But again,
Speaker 12: it doesn't really matter because you know, he's a hero
Speaker 12: in these particular seats that they hold, that they have held,
Speaker 12: and you know, eyes on the prize.
Speaker 1: Guys.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about the response from the supposedly mainstream Islamic
Speaker 2: voices in Australia who have decided to come out and
Speaker 2: focus on the reaction to what the nurses said, including
Speaker 2: fatom of Payment, who's out there saying, well, haven't they
Speaker 2: been punished enough?
Speaker 1: Remember what they were openly bragging about. Remember what they
Speaker 1: were openly bragging about. And he's Fatima Payment trying to
Speaker 1: pretend it's the messenger or the reaction to the message
Speaker 1: that's the problem, not what they.
Speaker 14: Said, theology they have been punished. What is the end
Speaker 14: goal here? What exactly are we trying to achieve justice
Speaker 14: or just public humiliation? We never see the same level
Speaker 14: of anger and vitriol when the roles are reversed.
Speaker 1: Okay, where is the role reversed? This is my thing.
Speaker 1: This is one thing James I heard today.
Speaker 2: There's been one hundred and fifty percent increase in physical
Speaker 2: attacks against Islamic people.
Speaker 1: Okay, I can't argue the number there, but.
Speaker 2: What is the what is the video example of the
Speaker 2: Jewish doctor this saying they're going to kill off Muslims.
Speaker 12: This is so upsetting and I really feel like we're
Speaker 12: at a real sort of fork in the road. Yeah, moment, Paul,
Speaker 12: with this situation here, because you've had I think the
Speaker 12: Australia has it had fifty different groups, mainstream as well
Speaker 12: as groups like his book Career, which is banned in
Speaker 12: a lot of countries because of what it says and
Speaker 12: what it's about. All say, Oh, you know, don't make
Speaker 12: such a big deal about it. And you know, it
Speaker 12: tells me a couple of things. Number One, it tells
Speaker 12: me they're not upset that they said this stuff. They're
Speaker 12: upset that they got caught. Two, it tells me that
Speaker 12: in a lot of these communities, this is what they
Speaker 12: are marinating in. This is a sort of conversation and
Speaker 12: discussion that is normal conversation, normal dinner table conversation. Remember
Speaker 12: Jillian Trigg saying you could say what's to like around
Speaker 12: the kitchen table? Well, guess what's being said around a
Speaker 12: lot of these kitchen tables. But the third thing that
Speaker 12: this says, well, I mean, this tells me that there's
Speaker 12: a real issue we have here about you know, you
Speaker 12: talk about community cohesion. Well, this is it because these
Speaker 12: guys are acting like a bunch of cry bullis. But
Speaker 12: you know they're saying, oh oh oh, we're the victims
Speaker 12: here because one of us did the wrong thing, but
Speaker 12: also we got caught doing the.
Speaker 2: Wrong If you want to be part of mainstream Australian society,
Speaker 2: like all of these groups claim that they want to be,
Speaker 2: then the mainstream response is to denounce what was said,
Speaker 2: not to wait for the wiggle room, not wait twenty
Speaker 2: four hours. The idoble embarrassment's enough place they can know.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about small business versus the public sector. I
Speaker 2: mentioned and I showed you the numbers between the start
Speaker 2: of this mob and the upcoming election, small business has
Speaker 2: gone backwards in terms of the number of people that employs.
Speaker 2: The federal government though, has gone by a football stadium
Speaker 2: of people. And we've seen the attitude that the government
Speaker 2: has towards small business where they think you've got enough
Speaker 2: money running around to bugger off to the super Bowl,
Speaker 2: or if you would like the same tax rules to
Speaker 2: apply to you as would apply to a financial service
Speaker 2: that you are apparently a monocle wearing top hat to
Speaker 2: owning cigar smoking boss. We know labor, we know labor
Speaker 2: doesn't get it when it comes to small business. But Matt,
Speaker 2: this is just open middle finger stuff, right, because the
Speaker 2: modern project of the center left is that you become
Speaker 2: dependent on the government, either through welfare, your work for them,
Speaker 2: which means you're dependent for the income, or if you're
Speaker 2: a private business, your biggest customer is the government. That's
Speaker 2: what they try under Daniel Andrews. That's not what we
Speaker 2: should cop across the rest of Australia.
Speaker 3: Well's not out, Paul that the Labor government has not
Speaker 3: set a priority of helping small business in this country.
Speaker 3: For the reasons you've outline. They want more people to
Speaker 3: be in union employer relationship, more people in the public
Speaker 3: service that feathers ns and that's what they've driven towards.
Speaker 3: So it's no surprise we're seeing these results. But any
Speaker 3: government should be judged, any person really should be judged
Speaker 3: by the fruits of what you deliver, and the fruits
Speaker 3: of the Labor Party that have delivered higher rent taide,
Speaker 3: higher taxes on people, higher energy prices, and we're seeing
Speaker 3: those smash Australian small businesses through the country. We're seeing
Speaker 3: the throats of all of those decisions and these lower
Speaker 3: amounts of people that are employing other people. Small business
Speaker 3: are the biggest employer of other Australians. So when they
Speaker 3: get hurt, everyone gets hurt. Everyone's job opportunities are hurt
Speaker 3: as well. And we should particularly focus on these energy
Speaker 3: price issue because while the government's out there crying and
Speaker 3: they're spending your money to make it provide a subsidy
Speaker 3: back to you, that doesn't insulate the small businesses who
Speaker 3: have to pay higher input costs for all the higher
Speaker 3: energy prices of manufacturing firms, transport firms, they're getting smashed
Speaker 3: by this. That's why we've got to drop net zero
Speaker 3: and focus on our own developing our own natural resources
Speaker 3: again to bring prices down for people.
Speaker 1: All right, let's thank you very much.
Speaker 2: And it's four degrees right now in London and Matt,
Speaker 2: I know it's not your thing, but feel free to
Speaker 2: go to a cigar shop called James.
Speaker 3: Much More, not much warmer here inside it's terrible James J.
Speaker 1: Fox in the center of London. Go upstairs for a smoke.
Speaker 2: But downstairs there's a museum of artifacts from Winston Churchill,
Speaker 2: including orders that he has made to that shop many
Speaker 2: years ago. So go and see a holy site and enjoy.
Speaker 2: Thank you mate, nice to talk to you both. All right,
Speaker 2: Senator future senator. Obviously don't smoke.
Speaker 1: It's bad, terrible, awful, awful, terrible. Quick break back with more.
Speaker 1: I want to avoid the meetings, James, all right, quick
Speaker 1: break back with more. Just enter price next. That looks
Speaker 1: that lefties, where's ma ring?
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 14: What?
Speaker 2: Are a friend in need, friend indeed whatever, but a
Speaker 2: friend who's willing, a friend who's willing to once he
Speaker 2: hears the struggle that you're in to go in and
Speaker 2: dive into dive into lucky dip style.
Speaker 1: The used hand things. James McPherson, thank.
Speaker 2: You very much. What a beautiful man you are. I
Speaker 2: appreciate he went digging. We didn't have to wait for
Speaker 2: the cleanse. Thank you, James. Watch him in about eleven
Speaker 2: minutes time. A couple of bits of fun before I
Speaker 2: get to just into price, about a nampogip price, about
Speaker 2: all the issues that we need to talk about with
Speaker 2: the hope of the side today with the bafter awards
Speaker 2: in the UK are the brutalist one other than that
Speaker 2: who cares? But the bloke who hosted. It is David Tennant,
Speaker 2: the great actor who played Doctor Who and a whole
Speaker 2: bunch of other things. And wouldn't it be cool if,
Speaker 2: like the next time there was the logis there was
Speaker 2: something fun like this?
Speaker 10: This is just fun.
Speaker 7: One?
Speaker 2: How good is that? That's the way to do it.
Speaker 2: I hope Conan does that with the oscars in a
Speaker 2: couple of weeks. And here is what will now be
Speaker 2: our nightly reminder that we have a very cringe full
Speaker 2: Prime minister.
Speaker 1: Roses are red violets of blue.
Speaker 8: It's Valentine's today and we love blue collar working.
Speaker 1: Just into Nampa.
Speaker 2: Jimper Price would never be caught dead on camera doing
Speaker 2: anything as cringeful as that, but she's got plenty to
Speaker 2: say about big issues in Australia.
Speaker 1: Senator, love you to see you again, mate. How's Alice tonight?
Speaker 12: Oh?
Speaker 5: Look, Alice is all right tonight. I don't know how
Speaker 5: I feel though after seeing the Prime Minister with that what,
Speaker 5: I don't even think i'd call it poetry. I'm feeling
Speaker 5: a little bit disturbed right now.
Speaker 2: Paul, all right, well let's go, let's yeah, let's let's
Speaker 2: let's let's get back to safer ground. Here, which is
Speaker 2: yourself and Peter Dutton have made some pretty major announcements
Speaker 2: in and around safety in the territory and specifically in
Speaker 2: and around Palmerston. What do you hope to bring should
Speaker 2: yourself and Peter Dutton be part of that government potentially
Speaker 2: as soon as a couple of months away.
Speaker 5: Look, safety is a key issue right throughout the Northern
Speaker 5: Territory and you know, particularly places like Palmerston. And we've
Speaker 5: got a wonderful candidate in Lisa Bayless up there who
Speaker 5: has done the hard work to find out what the
Speaker 5: community needs are, which is why we are able to
Speaker 5: make this announcement of three hundred and sixty eight thousand dollars.
Speaker 5: It's simple, really, it's about ensuring that the streets are
Speaker 5: properly lit in parks parts that are particularly worrying for
Speaker 5: the community. But you know, Lisa Bayless has got many
Speaker 5: years as a police officer under her belt as well
Speaker 5: as heading up the Police Association in the Northern Territory.
Speaker 5: She's an incredible candidate, as is Lisa Sebert, who has
Speaker 5: an extensive career former career in the AFP. It's remarkable
Speaker 5: I think that we've got such wonderful candidates, two women
Speaker 5: to lisas, one Indigenous, one not Indi, but a reflection
Speaker 5: of the Northern Territory running for the colp. But look,
Speaker 5: we are all about ensuring our streets are going to
Speaker 5: be safe right throughout the Northern Territory, and Leofanocchiaro has
Speaker 5: already started a wonderful job at changing bail laws and
Speaker 5: getting offenders off the street with outstanding warrants. So we'll
Speaker 5: continue down that path and work hand in glove with
Speaker 5: the territory government to ensure that our homes can be
Speaker 5: much safer than what they have been.
Speaker 2: I love between yourself, these candidates, the Chief Minister, the
Speaker 2: future is female, and the future is bright in the
Speaker 2: Northern Territory.
Speaker 1: All of those options are there on your ballot.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about another scenario here involving the Central Land
Speaker 2: Council and its chair. You've got some pretty significant concerns
Speaker 2: about things which are being discussed in relation to this
Speaker 2: person's past.
Speaker 5: Yeah, look absolutely, I mean you know he's got a
Speaker 5: horrible rup sheet of dB that we have uncovered through that.
Speaker 5: Now the Land Council should have done their background checks
Speaker 5: on those that were putting their name forward to be
Speaker 5: proper persons for those positions as chair, and he was
Speaker 5: previously the deputy chair, now he's chair. He's trying to
Speaker 5: say that he has fronted up to domestic violence rallies
Speaker 5: and spoken about his issues as an offender. But unfortunately,
Speaker 5: what we see is those that run to the defense
Speaker 5: of these men, and there's a number of them that
Speaker 5: we've called out recently as chairs of Indigenous organizations. But
Speaker 5: when these men are defended, what do we tell the victims?
Speaker 5: What do we say to the women who've been on
Speaker 5: the receiving end of violent perpetrators? Know that your voices
Speaker 5: aren't as important as those who are in powerful positions
Speaker 5: making decisions about vulnerable communities, communities that experience highest rates
Speaker 5: of domestic and family violence. We would not allow for
Speaker 5: those standards under any other circumstances in this country, certainly
Speaker 5: not if this was a non Indigenous person in a
Speaker 5: chairperson's position. But half our problems as to why we
Speaker 5: cannot tackle the scourge of violence is because we make
Speaker 5: excuses for those who've got significant criminal history to be
Speaker 5: in positions of standing. But that's what's been brought to
Speaker 5: my attention over and over again, and I'm here to
Speaker 5: say it's not good enough if not let a woman
Speaker 5: take that position. Like we talk about smashing the patriarchy
Speaker 5: when it comes to the western side of doing things,
Speaker 5: but no one encourages that in terms of looking at
Speaker 5: indigenous circumstances, women living under customer law and those sorts
Speaker 5: of things. When do we as Aboriginal women get to
