1
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:06,720
Speaker 1: From The Australian. Here's what's on the front. I'm Claire Harvey.

2
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:13,320
Speaker 1: It's Friday, July twenty five, twenty twenty five. Australian women

3
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:16,119
Speaker 1: who were strip searched at Doha Airport have won the

4
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:19,760
Speaker 1: right to sue Quitar Airways, with the full Federal Court

5
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: overruling a judge who dismissed their case. A pregnant twelve

6
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 1: year old girl has been given permission by a Supreme

7
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 1: Court judge to have an abortion she conceived after consensual

8
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 1: sex with her thirteen year old boyfriend, but at Queensland

9
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 1: Hospital took the case to court, concerned she didn't have

10
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: capacity to consent to a termination. Those stories alive now

11
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 1: at the Australian dot com. Do a U a coincidence,

12
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: not a capitulation. That's the Albanese government's explanation for suddenly

13
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: dropping a twenty year ban on American beef. They say

14
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: it's nothing to do with the fact that Donald Trump

15
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,559
Speaker 1: was demanding access for American farmers and now that Trump

16
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: administration is claiming victory today, will it help our cause?

17
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: When there's a florry of government staff visiting journalists in

18
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: the press gallery in Canberra something's going on. When that

19
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 1: florry is happening before dawn, you know it's big this time.

20
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 1: What the staffers and politicians were doing on level two

21
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: of the Senate Wing was announcing big news on beef imports.

22
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,199
Speaker 1: After a twenty year ban, Australia was about to drop

23
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: bio security restrictions on American slaughtered beef being imported to

24
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: Australia for sale because they said a rigorous biosecurity study

25
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: says actually it's safe.

26
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 2: On paper, this looks like it's pretty big capetulation to

27
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 2: one of Donald Trump's key demands when it comes to

28
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 2: Australian treat that's.

29
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: Richard Ferguson, our Camber Bureau Chief.

30
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 2: So it's clear that the Albanese government was very ready

31
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 2: to put out its lines and to make it seem

32
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 2: as much as possible that this has nothing to do

33
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 2: with Donald Trump. So we had the Agriculture Minister, Julie

34
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: Collins put out a very early morning statement. We even

35
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 2: had government staffers going through the offices as early as

36
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 2: possible to make sure the lines were correct, and then

37
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,239
Speaker 2: we had the minister herself stand up and the Trade

38
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 2: Minister Don Farrell stand up in the press gallery to

39
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 2: say this was a long term, ten year process, this

40
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,839
Speaker 2: was all about science. We're just announcing it now. Oh,

41
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 2: it happens to be Donald Trump's biggest gripe about Australia

42
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 2: when it comes to trade. All well, never mind that.

43
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: He is Trump Beck in April, they.

44
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 3: Won't take any of our beef. They don't want it

45
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 3: because they don't want it to affect their farmers. And

46
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:58,839
Speaker 3: you know what, I don't blame them, but we're doing

47
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 3: the same thing right now starting about midnight tonight, I

48
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:03,679
Speaker 3: would say.

49
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 2: I mean, look, the government is very very stringent from

50
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 2: the top down that this has nothing to do with

51
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 2: negotiations on trade. However, I think it's fair to say

52
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 2: that it's one of the great coincidences of Australian politics

53
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 2: in recent years that a study saying we should let

54
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 2: American import more beef happens to be released now. But

55
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 2: you know, I think the joke at the moment is

56
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 2: is there a secret, ten year, rigorous process on the

57
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 2: PBS or steel or aluminium that we're about to see drop.

58
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: Indeed, Trump's own Agriculture Secretary, Brooke L. Rowlands immediately put

59
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: out a triumphal statement We've used an AI voice to

60
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: read it for you.

61
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 4: Make agriculture great again. Trade wins. President Trump secures greater

62
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 4: agriculture market access to Australia for American beef. American farmers

63
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 4: in Rand produce the safest, healthiest beef in the world.

64
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 4: It's absurd that non scientific trade barriers prevented our beef

65
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 4: from being sold to consumers in Australia for the last

66
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 4: twenty years. Gone are the days of putting American farmers

67
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 4: on the sidelines. This is yet another example of the

68
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 4: kind of market access the President negotiates to bring America

69
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 4: into a new golden age of prosperity.

70
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 1: So why did we have a ban on American beef anyway?

71
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: Mad cow disease. In nineteen eighty six, a British farmer

72
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: noticed a couple of his cows were behaving strangely, dazed

73
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: and uncoordinated. An autopsy confirmed they'd been infected with bovine

74
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:47,479
Speaker 1: spongeiform encephilopathy or BSE. It's an infectious protein that targets

75
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: the brain, making it look spongy under a microscope, hence

76
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: the name.

77
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 5: Some scientists believe that it breaks some of the laws

78
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,080
Speaker 5: of nature as we know them, and thus maybe a

79
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 5: novel form of life.

80
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 1: Symptoms of BSE, also known as mad cow disease, can

81
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 1: appear several years after infection, but once they do, death

82
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: quickly follows. Those initial cases sparked a decade long disaster

83
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: with global ramifications.

84
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 2: An opinion poll yesterday found that a quarter of households

85
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 2: had dropped beef from the family menu. Over half a

86
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 2: million cows aged over thirty months have been cold since May.

87
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 4: It is a devastating indictment of British government, probably one

88
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 4: of the worst examples of British misgovernment since the war.

89
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: It spread through thousands of herds because livestock eight feed

90
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: made from the ground up remains of infected cattle. Humans

91
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: can also contract mad cow by ingesting infected meat. It

92
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 1: presents as kreutzfeld Yakub disease, a horrendous rapid onset of

93
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 1: dementia and then death, untreatable, unincurable. It has cost the

94
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 1: Health Service over a billion pounds. The practice of using

95
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 1: cattle parts to feed livestock is now banned. For more

96
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 1: than two decades, Australia banned the import of fresh and

97
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: frozen beef from the US unless the life cycle of

98
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 1: the beasts could be traced all the way from birth

99
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: to slaughter house. But America has a huge and complex

100
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: supply chain, with animals coming in from Mexico and Canada

101
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 1: before being killed in the US and exported. The Americans

102
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: said Australia's demands for traceability were unreasonable. Australia's held the

103
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: line through several changes of government, but now Minister Julie

104
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 1: Collins says the US has strengthened control measures and tracing systems.

105
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 2: No what as I think difficult to process and all

106
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 2: of that's with the government seeing that this as all

107
00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 2: completely coincidental, has nothing to do with tariffs. In June,

108
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 2: when this was put to the Prime Minister that these

109
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 2: kind of changes would happen, he said, no, we will

110
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 2: do nothing to compromise on biosecurity.

111
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 5: We have made it very clear to the United States

112
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 5: that we will not compromise on bio security. We will

113
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 5: not waken the measures that protect their farmers and producers

114
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 5: from the races of disas or contamination.

115
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 2: The government's line is we have done nothing to compromise

116
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 2: on biosecurity. We've just removed the biosecurity barriers and made

117
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 2: all these changes best on a ten year study. So

118
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 2: it gets to the heart of the trickery of language

119
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 2: that is being used here and is constantly being used

120
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 2: by the government when it comes to Donald Trump. They

121
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 2: do not like to talk about Donald Trump. They try

122
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 2: everything they can to avoid talking about Donald Trump unless

123
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 2: they can find a way to attack the Liberal Party

124
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 2: by connecting them to Donald Trump.

125
00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 1: You know, the Prime.

126
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 2: Minister, for example, has know a kind of stated response

127
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 2: whenever he's asked anything about Donald Trump, which is, I'm

128
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 2: not going to comment on everything the US President says.

129
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 2: If you would have believed that any prime minister would

130
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 2: have said that about Barack Obama, George Bush, Ronald Reagan,

131
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 2: LBJJFK all the way to Eisenhower and Roosevelt. You know,

132
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 2: I'm not going to comment on what the US President says.

133
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 2: I mean, it just shows the kind of world we're

134
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 2: living and both in terms of Albanesia and Trump, in

135
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 2: a way.

136
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 1: Australia desperately needs a deal on trade. Ever since Donald

137
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 1: Trump ripped up our free trade agreement and imposed a

138
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: blanket ten percent tariff which could soon rise to twenty

139
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 1: percent on everything we send to the US, plus a

140
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:51,599
Speaker 1: fifty percent tariff on Australian steel and aluminium. America's pharmaceutical

141
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: industry wants to sell more drugs here, which would probably

142
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: mean higher prices for Australian patients on our pharmaceutic called

143
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: Benefit Scheme or PBS. The White House is threatening a

144
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: two hundred percent tariff on drugs manufactured in places like

145
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 1: Australia unless we relax the PBS rules. And Anthony Alberanezi

146
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: says he wants a meeting with Donald Trump, but Trump

147
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:19,599
Speaker 1: keeps putting it off. Let's assume what seems will be

148
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: as Richard, which is that the Australian government has capitulated

149
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: to what the Americans want on beef as part of

150
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 1: a bigger improvement in their relationship or ensuring Australia gets

151
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: a good deal. Why not just be honest about that.

152
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 2: The obvious answer would be Claire, is that there has

153
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 2: been a ten year study and the coincidence is true.

154
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 2: Let's not discount this because we are cynical at heart.

155
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 2: But it's also possible that the government once again does

156
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 2: not want to look as if it's in a position

157
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 2: of weakness. You know, the government has really been putting

158
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 2: out the message over the past couple of weeks that

159
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 2: no compromise is going to get us as good as

160
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 2: a trading relationship as we had nearly twenty years ago

161
00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 2: between John Howard and Dori Stubby Bush. That is there belief.

162
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 2: That's why they don't want to compromise on the PBS.

163
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 2: The Albanezi government is following the presidents of the Morrison

164
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 2: government during Trump's first term, in which it actually took

165
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:10,599
Speaker 2: them months to score a deal, but they got a

166
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 2: much better deal than anybody else.

167
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 4: You know.

168
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 2: For example, Japan has one of the absolutely hop targets

169
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 2: of Trump when it comes to tariffs. I mean, you know, huge,

170
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 2: huge tariffs. They have now done a deal. It's not

171
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 2: a great deal, and the Prime Minister of Japan, who's

172
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 2: already lost a majority in the lower House and just

173
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 2: lost a majority in the Upper House, looks like he'll

174
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 2: resign because he's saying, oh, well, I got a trade

175
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 2: deal with Trump. I don't want to deal with this anymore.

176
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: So it is part of the Albaneza government doesn't want

177
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 2: to look weak when it comes to Trump. It doesn't

178
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 2: want to look weak, which you know is pretty smart

179
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 2: strategy in general, because we all know that Trump does

180
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 2: not respond well to weakness. He likes people who are

181
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 2: tough guys just like him.

182
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: Coming up, I can't Anthony Albanesi and Kevin Rudd get

183
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:17,439
Speaker 1: FaceTime at the White House. Which how focused do you

184
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: think the government is on actually getting a sit down

185
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 1: with the United States, an exemption on some tariffs and

186
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:25,680
Speaker 1: some guarantees about UCUS.

187
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 2: Well, the line from Anthony Alberanizi is that he's doing

188
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 2: everything he can. Kevin Rudd is the US ambassador in Washington,

189
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 2: is doing everything he can. The Foreign Minister, Penny Wong's

190
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 2: doing everything she can do'n Farrell, the Trade Minister's doing

191
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 2: everything he can. But when you look at the facts,

192
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,960
Speaker 2: we know that Kevin Rudd struggles to get much time

193
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 2: with the West wing of the White House. We know

194
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 2: that Anthony Albanesi is definitely not on top of Trump's

195
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 2: list for leaders that he needs to call. Considering he's

196
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 2: met with, you know, the Prime Minister of Ireland and

197
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 2: all our nations at the White House, and he's talked

198
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 2: to our G twenty partners, you know, from Starmer to

199
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:10,840
Speaker 2: Maloney to Macron dozens of dozens of times. And considering

200
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 2: also the Prime Minister gets very agitated whenever he's asked,

201
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 2: when are you going to meet with Donald Trump. You've

202
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 2: got to remember at a recent international summit that JD

203
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 2: Vance was at, the Vice President Albinizi was asked, will

204
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 2: you meet with J.

205
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 1: D Vance?

206
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 2: And he said, no, I meet leader to leader. And

207
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 2: then he goes to China and he meets with the

208
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 2: Shanghai Party boss, he meets with the Premier, he meets

209
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 2: with the chairman of the Chinese National People's Congress. So

210
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 2: he's clearly meeting other people who aren't just the leader.

211
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,199
Speaker 2: So he has said he wants a good relationship with

212
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 2: Donald Trump. Donald Trump has always been very positive about

213
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 2: Anthony Albanezi whenever he's been askedying he's a good guy.

214
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 2: So there's clearly some warmth in the phone conversations that

215
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 2: I've had there. But it must be noted that many

216
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 2: leaders have gone into the Oval Office and the president

217
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 2: has been Donald Trump and done the Donald Trump performance.

218
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 2: I mean, look at the Philippine President Marcos in the

219
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 2: Oval Office with Donald Trump and Donald Trump starts saying

220
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 2: that Obama is a villainous thug who's a trader.

221
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 3: Baracus said Obama is the ringleader Hillary Clinton was right

222
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 3: there with him, and so was Sleepy Joe Buden and

223
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 3: so with the rest of them, call me Clapper. The

224
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 3: whole group never has a thing like this happened in

225
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 3: the history of our country.

226
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 2: That will not be a comfortable position for Anthony Albineasi

227
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: to be and it is not one that he would enjoy.

228
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 2: You know, one can speculate that he is not rushing

229
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:48,559
Speaker 2: to experience that. Look, all the suggestions out of the

230
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 2: White House at the moment is still that of all

231
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 2: the countries that they like, we are at the top

232
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 2: of the list. And there's no doubt that Australia meeting

233
00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 2: America where it wants to be on beef is going

234
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 2: to help Anthony Albinezi in the future.

235
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: That was The Australian's Richard Ferguson. You can check out
