WEBVTT - Paul Murray Live | 21 August 0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:06.480 I'm the Skyinging Center. This is Paul Murray Live. OHI 0:00:06.519 --> 0:00:08.719 thank you very much for watching this Wednesday. What a 0:00:08.800 --> 0:00:11.720 show I've got for you tonight. The pettiness of Albo 0:00:11.920 --> 0:00:14.720 is on display every day, but today in particular in 0:00:14.760 --> 0:00:17.560 Parliament it's fight night when it comes to debate time. 0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:20.720 Stephen Conroy, Bromwin Bishop and the best in the business, 0:00:21.000 --> 0:00:23.600 the wonderful Megan Kelly joins us from the United States. 0:00:24.400 --> 0:00:27.840 But first, something that is rare. Let us begin with 0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:32.560 some good news. Now, as we know, September the first 0:00:32.640 --> 0:00:34.800 means the end of winter. But there's a chance. According 0:00:34.800 --> 0:00:37.279 to Bureau, and they always get it right, don't they, 0:00:38.080 --> 0:00:41.000 that next week is going to be a lot warmer 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:44.480 than it traditionally is some hot August nights. As Neil 0:00:44.520 --> 0:00:47.880 Diamond once Sang will be on their way next week. 0:00:47.960 --> 0:00:51.880 Bring it on. You know that Super Cuty, the teenage 0:00:52.159 --> 0:00:55.320 Australian who won gold at the Olympic Games. And after 0:00:55.320 --> 0:00:58.600 winning gold at the Olympic Games in skateboarding, all she 0:00:58.720 --> 0:01:00.200 wanted was a duck. 0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:04.400 You have to ask for my parents if I like one, 0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:07.160 was if I could get a pet duck, because duck's 0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:09.199 a really cute, and I really wanted a pet duck. 0:01:10.040 --> 0:01:11.880 Well, thanks to the good people, the breakfast team of 0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:14.160 the entire radio station of Triple Him on the Gold 0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:22.120 Coast today she got a duck. Oh you want a duck. 0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:23.880 So we thought you'll bring you some ducks. 0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:26.000 Holy duck, there's more duck. 0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:29.560 Now we know you're not allowed to keep a duck 0:01:29.760 --> 0:01:31.640 right now because you're about to head on bods, No. 0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:34.240 One of these you're putting the overhead locker. 0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:36.840 Why did you want to duck? 0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:41.680 Because I've been wanting one since I was like really 0:01:41.720 --> 0:01:46.760 younger and then they're really cute and I just love animals. 0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:50.200 I told you it was good news. My thoughts are 0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:53.760 with who have has to clean that studio? Well, anyway, congratulations. 0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:56.960 The third bit of good news is Donald Trump is 0:01:57.000 --> 0:01:59.840 bouncing back. There's lots of different bits of data, but 0:01:59.840 --> 0:02:03.160 there's also a pep in this step. Let me explain now, 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:05.560 as we all know, we love the dancing Donald, but 0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:07.800 the dancing Donald hasn't been around for a little while. 0:02:07.880 --> 0:02:11.680 You know, getting shot at might slightly change you. But 0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:14.160 as you know, the Democratic National Committee is taking place 0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:18.240 as we speak. A giant advertorial, a giant yawn a giant. Yeah, 0:02:18.400 --> 0:02:21.799 guess what surprise surprise. Barack Obama says, hopes back, and 0:02:21.880 --> 0:02:24.720 Michelle Obama says, Trump's racist blah blah blah. But frankly, 0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:27.200 this thing has really I mean, these people are now 0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:29.519 so arrogant, so arrogant that they think they're going to 0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:33.120 slam dunk this thing that they're now basically doing I'm sorry, 0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:36.880 dick jokes and making references that they hope that the 0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:40.480 Republican vice presidential candidate someone in his family gets raped. 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:53.720 This weird obsession with crowd sizes Jennie Vance calls pregnancy 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:56.040 resulting from rape inconvenient. 0:02:56.639 --> 0:02:58.040 Inconvenience is traffic. 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:01.000 I mean, it is me to go through this. 0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:05.359 These people are sick. What the suggestion that his wife 0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:07.560 or his kids or somebody is just that's as low 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:09.760 as they are, right. Oh, but they're the compassionate people, 0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:12.560 the joyful people, the freedom people, the people who are 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:16.359 all United police. These are dirty players like anyone else 0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:18.960 in politics, but this particular generation of people running the 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:22.040 Democratic Party as dirty as they have ever been. Remember, 0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:24.880 they were ruthless enough to get rid of a president, 0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:28.079 not because he was melting before all of our eyes, 0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:30.640 but because he wasn't going to win and power is 0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:32.680 more important than principle, despite the fact that, of course 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:35.880 they always say principle is more important. But also for 0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:38.400 the media, it's an opportunity for them to basically hang 0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:40.600 with their mates. This is a home game. This is 0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:44.040 then covering their favorite football team going into a Grand final. 0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:48.200 The Democrats should be congratulated for this night. 0:03:48.360 --> 0:03:51.800 It was well produced. It's done the impossible every time 0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:55.960 because he's been great every time and then finds a 0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:59.120 way to be great again. That's different. It's one of 0:03:59.120 --> 0:04:02.680 the best conventions and speeches I've ever seen by anybody 0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:10.320 in any circumstance. Yawn. But guess what. The numbers don't lie, 0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:13.280 and fewer people are watching this one than the last 0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:15.200 time because of course, COVID meant they had to keep 0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:18.000 Joe in the basement, which meant no convention in twenty twenty. 0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:20.599 So with let's compare it to twenty sixteen, twenty million 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:23.480 watch on the first night, great cool, thirty something minion 0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:26.200 watch a football game, thirty something medi inm watch the Olympics. 0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:27.839 So it's a good number. It's not amazing, but it 0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:30.599 is down. It's DOWND by almost a quarter when Hillary 0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:35.599 was the absolute golden child of presidential politics. But talking 0:04:35.600 --> 0:04:37.920 about the low road, and I'll get to the good news, 0:04:37.920 --> 0:04:40.920 but the low road that these people take on their 0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:43.160 way to saying vote for us because we're better people. 0:04:43.960 --> 0:04:46.480 In one of the many hype videos about how evil 0:04:46.520 --> 0:04:50.120 and ugabuger Donald Trump is, there was this reference to 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:55.640 Jeffrey Epstein. Jeffrey Epstein. Oh, there you go. Did you 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:58.240 miss it? Just a little clip? Oh, there he was. 0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:01.080 He was associated with Jeffrey Epstein. And remember evil, awful 0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:07.320 Jeffrey Epstein. Well, what I find particularly despicable about this 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:12.240 is that if any proximity to Jeffrey Epstein, knowing or 0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:15.960 unknowing to the other behaviors happening in Jeffrey Epstein's life 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:19.359 is a reason why someone should certainly not be the president, 0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:22.520 but certainly gets put into the bad person category. Could 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:25.640 somebody explain to me how a bloke who didn't just 0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:29.240 fly on Jeffrey Epstein's plane the low lead to express 0:05:29.520 --> 0:05:33.880 but according to people who worked there, he went to 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:39.360 Jeffrey Epstein's Ireland. Bill Clinton is going to be the 0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:43.840 major speaker in the next twenty four hours. It is 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:46.719 a disgrace what they forgive when it comes to this bloke. 0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:48.920 Meghan Kelly on that and a lot more in a set. 0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:55.680 To me, this is so stupid, especially when you have 0:05:55.920 --> 0:06:00.640 Kamala Harris running on. I know the sexual predator type. 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:03.720 Trust me, when I see Donald Trump, I've dealt with 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:07.600 his tape before. You're having his type speak at your 0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:09.400 convention on Wednesday night. 0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:13.359 Seeing its sister, Seeing its sister, It is amazing the 0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:17.760 free passes that they give themselves while turning around and 0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:21.440 plant claiming that the people who have done far less 0:06:21.720 --> 0:06:24.800 than they have done are of course the evil, awful deplorables, 0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:27.840 et cetera, etc. So what did I say today? The 0:06:27.839 --> 0:06:29.760 third part of the good news was what's happening in 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:32.680 and around Trump? Now, Yes, we meet here in the 0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:35.360 middle of August. There are many weeks, many months before 0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:39.599 the presidential election formally takes place. The first Tuesday in 0:06:39.640 --> 0:06:43.479 November will be in the United States when that takes place. Well, 0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:47.680 it's because the old Trump seems to be back, the 0:06:47.720 --> 0:06:50.680 one that's very quick on his feet. You see, while 0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:54.799 they were doing the dick jokes today at the Democratic 0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:58.360 National Committee, he was going to places to talk about 0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:01.599 law and order because for a huge number of Americans 0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:03.760 it's the number one issue. It's certainly something that has 0:07:03.800 --> 0:07:08.680 gotten worse under Democrat control, as governors or people like 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:12.400 Kamala Harris try to bail people out after getting involved 0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:18.120 in riots. But what is amazing is how they tried 0:07:18.600 --> 0:07:21.480 to make it seem like this wasn't an event about 0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:24.520 law and order, it was an event about white supremacy. 0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:28.520 The Reuters News agency was the one who decided to 0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:31.880 run with this that Trump pushes tough on crime agenda 0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:38.080 with town with historic links to white extremism. The suggestion 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:42.679 that Howell in Michigan, which way back when had some connection, 0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:45.400 if not was very significant connection to the KKK. That 0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:49.680 there's a secret message being sent through the television. So 0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:53.400 somebody decided to ask Donald Trump about this very thing, 0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:56.440 and Donald had perhaps the best answer he has had 0:07:56.480 --> 0:08:00.640 all year, and spiking the ball right back down the 0:08:00.760 --> 0:08:04.480 throat of the regime media that are trying to pretend 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:07.640 that an announcement about law and order is secretly about 0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:09.240 the KKK. This was brilliant. 0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:11.080 Thank you for. 0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:27.720 This who was here in twenty twenty one, Thank. 0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:35.440 You, Thank you everybody, that's what we want. Boom. But 0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:37.200 that's not just the only reason why those of us 0:08:37.240 --> 0:08:40.600 would like to see Trump win Harris lose. Are feeling 0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:42.800 a little better tonight than maybe even twenty four hours ago. 0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:45.040 Who knows what will be in a week's time. I 0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:46.440 know there are plenty of people on the incidet who 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:48.040 sort of take the little thing and say, see they 0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:51.240 were wrong on this. No middle of August. Who knows 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:55.040 what's happening tomorrow, But tonight, according to the bookies, Trump 0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:57.080 used to be way up in terms of the chance 0:08:57.080 --> 0:08:58.920 of winning the presidency when it was Biden, and then 0:08:58.960 --> 0:09:03.079 he went well, way down, but certainly under fifty percent. Well, 0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:05.720 apparently what Kamala Harris is being embraced by all and sundry. 0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:09.280 Guess what is happening. The money is moving Trump's way 0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:13.880 now again, anything below say fifty five or above fifty 0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:16.040 five is a coin toss, But the coin toss at 0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:21.480 this stage tonight would fall Trump's way. Now, this is 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:23.560 extraordinary because I went looking for hang on, well, what's 0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:26.200 the evidence here? Did you? Some Republican billionaire put a 0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:28.000 lot of money on to try to change the odds, 0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:31.560 to change the narrative people do that stuff. Well, actually, 0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:33.680 let's say let's have a look at the key states 0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:37.760 that matter, those swing states. Now, remember, essentially, for Trump 0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:40.280 to win, he's got a win Pennsylvania, He's got a 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:43.440 win Georgia, he's got to win Arizona. It'd be nice 0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:47.240 to have Nevada. Now, the most recent five poles in 0:09:47.240 --> 0:09:50.920 the state of Pennsylvania, they go from Harris having a 0:09:50.960 --> 0:09:53.679 big lead to Trump having a little lead and holding it. 0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:59.960 But that's multiple poles in a row, all taken last weekend. 0:10:00.320 --> 0:10:03.480 What about in Georgia were either it was a tie, 0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:05.600 Harris a little bit up, Trump a lot up, back 0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:08.800 to a tie, and then the lefty New York Times 0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:14.520 pole says that Trump is back way up in Arizona. 0:10:15.120 --> 0:10:17.600 When Harris had just taken over there, it was a 0:10:17.640 --> 0:10:21.280 little lead for her at two points, but then Trump 0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:23.880 up by three, up three, and yes, not up by much, 0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:29.480 but still up by one in Arizona. So Nevada again, 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:33.880 all of these poles since the change of candidate. It 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:35.800 was Harris up by two, but then it was Trump 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:38.840 by three, Trump by three, and then Trump by one. 0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:43.480 So again we are where we are tonight right now, 0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:46.559 sitting together on the twenty first of August Australian Eastern 0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:50.200 Standard time. But the bookies say that he is a 0:10:50.200 --> 0:10:54.280 slight favorite to win the pole. Show how he could 0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:58.040 do it. His attitude today in front of the reporters 0:10:58.200 --> 0:10:59.679 was the guy who people fell in love with in 0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:04.280 Siek and thought so hard for in twenty twenty. But 0:11:04.400 --> 0:11:07.959 there may be a huge boost which is bigger than 0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:13.920 the money and bigger than the polls. Rfk Jor originally 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:16.520 a lifelong Democrat who at one point tried to take 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:19.400 on Joe Biden, but essentially they, according to him, rigged 0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:22.760 the primary, so he was pushed aside. He ended up 0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:26.240 running as an independent. He's had great difficulties getting onto 0:11:26.280 --> 0:11:29.480 as many state ballots as possible. The Democrats to this 0:11:29.600 --> 0:11:31.360 very minute are trying to sue to get him off. 0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:35.280 But his vice presidential pick did a podcast in the 0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:38.559 past twenty four hours and she's now saying we have 0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:42.000 two options. One we stay in the race Harris could win, 0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:45.000 or we get out and we backed Trump and we 0:11:45.200 --> 0:11:46.400 beat Harris. 0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:52.840 There's two options that we're looking at, and one is 0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:55.760 staying in forming that new party, but we run the 0:11:55.840 --> 0:12:01.800 risk of a Kamala Harris, Kamala Harris and Waltz presidency 0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:05.280 because we draw votes from Trump, or we draw some 0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:11.080 how more votes from Trump, or we walk away right 0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:15.880 now and join forces with Donald Trump. 0:12:16.640 --> 0:12:19.080 Now without boring him and showing you too much of 0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:24.480 the detail. When Biden was the candidate, basically two thirds 0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:28.240 of the support for Kennedy was Democrats. When there was 0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:31.320 a change to Harris, most of those people started to 0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:33.839 go back towards the Democrats, and that's how she got 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:36.880 into a position of being slightly above, slightly below, but 0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:41.360 basically back where the generic Team Blue was. So currently 0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:44.880 Kennedy has about again two thirds of support that traditionally 0:12:44.880 --> 0:12:47.160 would come from Trump, one third left from the Democrats. 0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:49.720 So in races that are down to one or two points, 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:54.520 five points up for grab in Arizona, four in Georgia, 0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:58.640 six in Michigan, five in Nevada, four in North Carolina, 0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:02.480 if it followed that sixty forty split, it would put 0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:05.560 Trump not just a little in the lead, but way 0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:07.600 back in the lead. Not as full on as he 0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:10.240 was when it was Biden, but we would be back 0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:12.960 to a race where Trump was in front and it 0:13:13.080 --> 0:13:15.880 was still Trump's to lose as opposed to what we 0:13:15.920 --> 0:13:19.000 are being told day in, day out, narrative, narrative, narrative 0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:22.120 because hardcore Democrats all decided to meet in one room 0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:27.360 for four days, that that's three hundred million Americans. It ain't. 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:30.520 And while fewer people may be watching it on television, 0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:33.120 plenty of other people will be watching it online. But 0:13:33.200 --> 0:13:37.479 those people too, by their millions, watching Trump doing interviews 0:13:37.559 --> 0:13:41.600 all over the place, and they are waiting potentially to 0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:45.600 see Robert Kennedy give them the green light to back Trump. 0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:48.600 If that's the case, it's not just game on. Trump's 0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:51.319 back in the lead. But it is the middle of August. 0:13:51.559 --> 0:13:53.520 We will all wait and see what happens. Megan Kelly 0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:57.480 in a few minutes time back here though, Oh the Teals, look, 0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:01.760 spare me the teal tears. Okay, now you may well 0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:03.760 have seen in the past twenty four hours, Treaty Macintosh 0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:06.280 from our Canbe Bureau went and had a look at 0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:10.319 how often the Teals end up voting with the Greens 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:13.920 in the Parliament. Unsurprisingly, for a lot of them, it's 0:14:13.960 --> 0:14:14.800 a lot of the time. 0:14:16.480 --> 0:14:19.760 Your voting record is those Tom's pointed out sixty six 0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:23.240 percent on coalition motions Labor fifty two, Greens thirty. It 0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:25.800 was quite different than some of the other cross benches. 0:14:26.440 --> 0:14:29.680 Sophi Scomps, she was the highest amongst teals voting with 0:14:29.720 --> 0:14:31.080 the Greens motions. 0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:33.640 And you see, with the exception of Rebecca Sharky, who 0:14:33.720 --> 0:14:35.640 is not a teal, the rest of them were in 0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:37.840 the high fifties or the low sixties, or even some 0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:41.800 in the mid sixties. So when that story was out 0:14:41.800 --> 0:14:44.920 and about to stop it from being able to be 0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:49.120 yet another truth about the cashed up Greens who pretend 0:14:49.160 --> 0:14:51.240 to be former Liberals despite the factor by their own 0:14:51.240 --> 0:14:54.480 admission they very rarely, if ever, have voted for the 0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:56.800 Liberal Party in the past few years, that they are 0:14:56.920 --> 0:15:00.040 the place for the disaffected Liberals to come. It's just 0:15:00.600 --> 0:15:05.160 new face on the Greens, another option on the left. Well, 0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:08.880 today the tears were out and about trying to change 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:11.320 the subject from their voting record, and much of the 0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:13.200 media help them do this because they were out and 0:15:13.240 --> 0:15:16.320 about talking about just how tough and terrible parliament is, 0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:20.760 about how awful and evil and adversarial and yelly and 0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:23.400 code blokey Parliament is. 0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:30.600 Mister Dutton recently name calling labeling denigrating words in the 0:15:30.640 --> 0:15:32.240 media is unacceptable. 0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:35.200 To call colleagues idiots is unacceptable. 0:15:35.440 --> 0:15:37.360 I'm told I need to toughen up. 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:39.320 I'm pretty tough. 0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:41.920 And as others have said, some who have been in 0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:44.880 this place too long, who I think have lost touch 0:15:44.920 --> 0:15:48.480 with what is acceptable behavior outside this place, and think 0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:51.760 that because you describe this place as a bubble, somehow 0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:54.400 it condones a different standed of behavior. 0:15:54.840 --> 0:16:01.120 It doesn't please. This passive aggressive garbage works because there 0:16:01.160 --> 0:16:03.560 are plenty of people inside the media who want politics 0:16:03.560 --> 0:16:05.120 to look a lot more like the Teals than it 0:16:05.160 --> 0:16:07.840 currently does with the Liberal Party or the Labor Party 0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:11.040 or anyone else. But the reality is that Australia does 0:16:11.080 --> 0:16:13.680 not think like the Teals all right, It just doesn't 0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:16.200 now the parts of Australia that they represent, well, we 0:16:16.280 --> 0:16:18.080 know that pretty much they line up and most likely 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:21.760 will back them at the next federal election. But for 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:24.000 the extreme majority of Australians who do not live in 0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:28.360 those parts of Australia, we have a different view of 0:16:28.560 --> 0:16:32.040 their new cool brand of politics, which, by the way, 0:16:32.480 --> 0:16:35.040 when they want to, it's okay if they yell in 0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:37.880 the Parliament or they abuse people in the parliament. 0:16:39.520 --> 0:16:45.840 Put your masks on from repeated infection. Order we hurt 0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:46.720 you in silence. 0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:48.760 You can hear me in silence. 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:55.200 Order stop being racing. Seriously, Jane him who's doing her 0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:57.680 best to try to take on the Teals, particularly in Victoria. 0:16:57.800 --> 0:17:00.840 They'll be hard to move because they they are of 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:04.440 the left. Much of Victoria increasingly, certainly the wealthier bits 0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:07.520 is of the left. She calls it exactly as I do, 0:17:07.640 --> 0:17:09.720 which is this is a stunt. This is garbage, and 0:17:09.760 --> 0:17:12.320 I'll give you the proof of why it's garbage. 0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:17.399 Next, we should make sure that this is one safe 0:17:17.440 --> 0:17:20.879 space where you can have as robust debate as you need, 0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:24.080 because that's what the country deserves. This sounds to me 0:17:24.440 --> 0:17:29.280 like a political stunt, potentially done for electoral convenience because 0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:30.920 the Teals have run out of an agenda. 0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:34.760 Good work, Love you, l J. But the real reason 0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:36.960 they ended up talking about this today, apart from changing 0:17:37.000 --> 0:17:39.199 the subject on how they're actually voting and whom they 0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:43.040 are voting within the Parliament, is that the government is 0:17:43.119 --> 0:17:47.359 already addressing parliamentary behavior. In fact, they have introduced a 0:17:47.359 --> 0:17:50.800 piece of legislation to the Parliament this week about the 0:17:50.800 --> 0:17:55.480 standards of Parliament. So they're either trying to pretend that 0:17:55.520 --> 0:17:58.080 because of us they've brought this legislation in, or they're 0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:00.679 trying to pretend here's the problem, and then magically we 0:18:00.720 --> 0:18:06.119 get to own the solution. Federal MPs could be fined 0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:08.360 up to five percent of their salary and kicked off 0:18:08.400 --> 0:18:11.199 powerful parliamentary committees and even suspended from Parliament on new 0:18:11.280 --> 0:18:14.640 laws to be introduced by the federal government. These codes 0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:18.200 set out expectations for behavior, including requirements to foster respectful 0:18:18.200 --> 0:18:22.680 and inclusive workplaces and a prohibition on bullying, harassment, sexual harassment, 0:18:22.880 --> 0:18:25.119 and assault and discrimination. Okay, fine, no one has a 0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:27.639 problem with any of that. Now. This is of course, 0:18:28.160 --> 0:18:30.199 not about what happens in question time, not about what 0:18:30.200 --> 0:18:36.240 happens in parliamentary debate. It's about what happens behind the scenes, 0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:40.280 what happens in the offices. And of course, as we 0:18:40.400 --> 0:18:45.080 have shown you, while the left and dominant and narrative 0:18:45.200 --> 0:18:47.720 and access medias would all like to pretend it's, oh, 0:18:47.760 --> 0:18:51.400 it's all one party with a problem, there was, of course, 0:18:51.440 --> 0:18:53.760 at the very height of all things to do with 0:18:53.840 --> 0:18:56.760 what was happening behind the scenes in parliament. A couple 0:18:56.800 --> 0:18:59.560 of years ago, a bunch of brave women I think 0:18:59.560 --> 0:19:03.520 it was fifty five of them who came forward to 0:19:03.560 --> 0:19:05.880 talk about the culture ins either Labor party. 0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:06.480 Now. 0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:08.480 Of course, no one lost their job, no one followed up, 0:19:08.520 --> 0:19:11.199 There was no special four corners investigation on all of this. 0:19:11.720 --> 0:19:14.320 But if the laws had been put in place the 0:19:14.359 --> 0:19:18.560 governor is now wanting for the workplace, there would be many, 0:19:18.720 --> 0:19:22.040 many current and former labor MPs that may will find 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:24.359 themselves on the wrong side of this. I have to 0:19:24.359 --> 0:19:27.879 say current or former, because we've never been told whether 0:19:27.880 --> 0:19:30.360 the fifty five staffers were talking about people who are 0:19:30.680 --> 0:19:34.679 in the Parliament now or formerly, how high in the 0:19:34.800 --> 0:19:39.320 ranks or how lowly in the backbenches. But remember they 0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:43.160 said this. He is a man who punches the wall 0:19:43.160 --> 0:19:46.879 next to a female staffer's head, calling her when she 0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:50.600 passes news on that he doesn't want to hear. He 0:19:50.720 --> 0:19:53.480 is a man who calls his female colleague a pig 0:19:53.560 --> 0:19:56.720 dog when she disagrees with him, and says in front 0:19:56.760 --> 0:19:59.480 of all of the staff, that's why no one wants 0:19:59.560 --> 0:20:02.640 to He is a married man who plied a young 0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:05.760 woman with drinks until she had no idea what was happening. 0:20:06.600 --> 0:20:10.360 He promised others at the gathering that he would get 0:20:10.400 --> 0:20:12.920 her home safely, but before putting her into a cab, 0:20:12.960 --> 0:20:18.760 he had sex with her with no ability to consent. Now, 0:20:18.800 --> 0:20:21.720 isn't it interesting that the Teals, of course, want to 0:20:21.720 --> 0:20:25.000 pretend for all of the reasons, which is, we exist 0:20:25.080 --> 0:20:28.119 because we are what the Liberal Party could and should be, 0:20:28.200 --> 0:20:31.159 despite the fact that generally speaking, most of their voters 0:20:31.160 --> 0:20:34.879 of people have never voted Liberal in their life. Zally Stagger, 0:20:34.920 --> 0:20:37.919 by her own admission, had said that she had not 0:20:38.560 --> 0:20:40.520 voted Liberal in all the time that she had been 0:20:40.560 --> 0:20:42.399 in the electorate, which meant she didn't even vote for 0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:46.760 Malcolm Turnbull when she had the opportunity. Well, of course, 0:20:46.800 --> 0:20:49.600 the only way they get into Parliament is with the 0:20:49.640 --> 0:20:55.240 preferences of Greens and Labor. You see, if you actually 0:20:55.240 --> 0:20:57.160 have a look, there are some of the Teals which 0:20:57.200 --> 0:21:00.600 have a primary vote which is in the forties. Those 0:21:00.600 --> 0:21:03.879 people are, in terms of the results, people who have 0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:09.360 got a strong claim to being somebody who truly represents 0:21:09.359 --> 0:21:13.600 a movement in their electorate. Otherwise it's a maths game. 0:21:13.800 --> 0:21:15.560 Now the seat of North City is about to disappeared. 0:21:15.600 --> 0:21:19.000 Only a quarter of people actually voted for the Teal 0:21:19.760 --> 0:21:24.879 less than thirty percent, for the one in Western Australia 0:21:25.160 --> 0:21:28.119 just over a third of people in the seat of 0:21:28.160 --> 0:21:35.679 Goldstein and in Wentworth again just over a third. So 0:21:36.119 --> 0:21:40.040 they will take the preferences of the people whose former staffers, 0:21:40.160 --> 0:21:43.879 fifty five of which have listed all of their behavior. 0:21:44.640 --> 0:21:47.000 They stay in a media cycle by pretending that it's 0:21:47.080 --> 0:21:51.040 only a Liberal Party problem because there is a media 0:21:51.080 --> 0:21:54.040 that wants to push that narrative. Why because the Liberal 0:21:54.040 --> 0:21:56.159 Party has a problem with women. Why do they want 0:21:56.200 --> 0:22:00.159 to push that narrative right now? Because in the two 0:22:00.240 --> 0:22:05.280 party preferred right now in the polls, more women are 0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:11.280 backing the Liberal Party than the Labor Party. Olbo has 0:22:11.280 --> 0:22:12.840 been all over the place for the past couple of 0:22:12.840 --> 0:22:14.840 weeks in parliament. Now I don't know what he assumed 0:22:14.880 --> 0:22:18.199 this two weeks was going to be about. But Australians well, 0:22:18.680 --> 0:22:21.440 so many have had enough. It's no surprise that I've 0:22:21.840 --> 0:22:25.320 never had stocked for this bloke. And now, according to 0:22:25.359 --> 0:22:29.800 the resolved political monitor in the City Morning Herald, the Age, 0:22:29.880 --> 0:22:32.480 Brisbane Times, all the other nine years papers, fifty one 0:22:33.119 --> 0:22:35.440 percent of Australian So the Prime Minister's performance is poor 0:22:35.480 --> 0:22:38.520 or very poor. Only a third of the country says 0:22:38.560 --> 0:22:42.680 good or very good. Perfect example about how this Prime 0:22:42.680 --> 0:22:46.919 Minister gets things wrong but also likes to rub the 0:22:47.080 --> 0:22:50.080 noses in it of the people who dare stand in 0:22:50.119 --> 0:22:53.720 his way was an event last night in Canberra, a 0:22:53.760 --> 0:22:57.040 black tie event allegedly in support in terms of the 0:22:57.040 --> 0:23:02.560
