WEBVTT - Paul Murray Live | 24 July 0:00:00.320 --> 0:00:05.320 From the skyinging setter. This is Paul Burry Life. 0:00:06.559 --> 0:00:08.399 Thank you so much, Harry, A little walking wounded that 0:00:08.480 --> 0:00:10.080 you can see. We've got the water, We've got the honey. 0:00:10.080 --> 0:00:12.640 We're trying to hold on, as the Great Man once said, 0:00:12.760 --> 0:00:15.240 just after being shot. Fight, fight, fight, and we'll continue 0:00:15.240 --> 0:00:18.160 to do so. Look, no mucking around tonight. 0:00:18.200 --> 0:00:22.360 It is all killer, no killer. Including two of Albo's duds. 0:00:22.480 --> 0:00:24.040 Look like they're about to walk out the door. 0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:26.920 That'll give him the excuse to reshuffle the deck chairs 0:00:27.120 --> 0:00:30.560 on the political Titanic. Thank goodness, the Secret Service boss 0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:33.440 is gone. But wait till I tell you how again. 0:00:33.920 --> 0:00:36.559 The Deep State's going to try to clip Donald Trump's 0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:38.239 wings and the. 0:00:38.240 --> 0:00:41.040 See if at me you. As each day rolls on, 0:00:41.720 --> 0:00:42.800 there is more. 0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:45.400 Chance that labor MPs are about to find themselves in 0:00:45.479 --> 0:00:49.440 a world of trouble because this union has receipts and it. 0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:51.120 Looks like they're about to put them forward. 0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:55.800 But first, previous reasons, we have been focused on what's 0:00:55.840 --> 0:00:57.680 been happening in the United States and focused on sort 0:00:57.680 --> 0:00:59.440 of some other news that's happened at home. But I 0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:01.760 still want to go back to something that happened on 0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:02.480 the weekend. 0:01:02.880 --> 0:01:05.840 It was a horrific tragedy that took place in Sydney. 0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:10.200 Sydney is reeling from a devastating loss this morning after 0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:12.840 a heroic father and his two year old daughter died 0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:15.600 when they're pram rolled onto train tracks. 0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:21.200 This story just tears everyone's hard apart, but you a 0:01:21.280 --> 0:01:25.640 parent of little kids, grandparents' basic human beings. 0:01:25.680 --> 0:01:27.680 The reaction from the premiere through. 0:01:27.520 --> 0:01:31.080 To the Indian community in Sydney has been utter devastation. 0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:35.680 I just saw the train coming down and then a 0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:36.640 certain bit of screaming. 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:39.880 Yeah, I'm pretty horrific, but I don't really want to. 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:40.399 Talk about it. 0:01:40.440 --> 0:01:43.080 Sorry, guys, I'm still upset about it. 0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:45.839 Please timed under the train and rescued one of the children, 0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:50.120 who was thankfully unharmed, and regnited her with the mother. 0:01:50.520 --> 0:01:54.680 I hope over time they can gain some small solace 0:01:54.760 --> 0:02:00.000 knowing that the father died from an extraordinary instinctive active brain. 0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:03.880 That's not going to bring him or his little daughter back, 0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:07.440 but it shouldn't go unremarked upon. In the face of 0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:10.840 a terrible, terrible accident, he gave his own life to 0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:11.960 try and save his children. 0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:15.960 Now, I know, after big stories like this. 0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:20.000 We often say the same thing, but I mean it 0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:22.840 more than ever before, which is about the blink of 0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:27.200 an eye, the difference between life and death, the difference 0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:32.359 between a family going to catch a train, the pram 0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:34.799 getting out of one of their hands, or the lock 0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:38.600 not working on it. We still don't know yet two 0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:46.840 little kids inside the pram, one saved, one not, and 0:02:46.919 --> 0:02:50.080 a father trying to save both, was only able to 0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:56.160 save one. Left behind, of course, is this little girl 0:02:56.200 --> 0:02:58.240 who will grow up without a father and a wife 0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:04.280 whose entire life was connected to him being in Australia. 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:11.239 He was a skilled worker, they were dependents. And there 0:03:11.280 --> 0:03:13.960 is some conversation that has happened in the past twenty 0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:17.000 four hours which I'm a little bit stunned to see, 0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:19.800 and I'm sure it's just the process playing out. 0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:21.240 But because his. 0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:24.080 Visa was the only way that they were able to 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:26.720 stay in Australia, there's a conversation now in an appeal 0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:30.160 to the federal government to make sure that the mother 0:03:30.240 --> 0:03:34.079 and daughter, if they want to, can stay in Australia permanently. Now, 0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:36.160 the family only got here last year, so they may 0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:39.760 want to return back to India and other family. But 0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:43.600 if anyone is in any decision making process, fill out 0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:48.279 the paperwork tonight so they have the option of permanent residency. 0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:50.720 We know that this is a process that again they 0:03:50.760 --> 0:03:54.240 say takes time, but I'm sorry, at least issue some 0:03:54.280 --> 0:03:56.440 sort of a public statement that it's guaranteed that the 0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:58.480 family is going to be able to stick around them 0:03:58.600 --> 0:04:01.200 well under the Daily Telegraph for fow blowing up on 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:04.680 what would be just a further complicating detail at a 0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:09.080 bloody awful time for the family and their friends. But 0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:12.000 the Minister for Immigration, Andrew Giles, is being urged to 0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:13.960 help a distraught mum they lost her husband and daughter 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:15.800 in the horror cult and train accident. 0:04:17.080 --> 0:04:19.000 Because she faced the risk of deportation. 0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:22.719 It's understood the Abenezy government is closely considering the plight 0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:27.160 of the woman and the child. Of course, the man 0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:29.560 who died was an IT professional who came to Australia 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:35.160 just last year October twenty twenty three July twenty twenty four. 0:04:35.240 --> 0:04:38.120 Their world is completely torn apart. His visa or their 0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:40.960 visa was about to expire on the first of August. 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:44.479 So whoever's in charge of that stuff, can we just 0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:47.839 sort it out? Sort it out now, and it's not 0:04:47.880 --> 0:04:50.159 a political thing. It's just can I just add my 0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:54.240 voice to everyone else's, including the spectacular Indian community in Australia, 0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:56.279 to make sure that this woman has the option to 0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:58.600 say if she wants and she can have whatever support 0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:02.640 that she needs now. Also, again, traditionally when horrible things 0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:05.800 like this happened, go fundme pages or other fundraising efforts 0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:10.000 kick in because for obvious reasons. Again, if he was 0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:13.080 the reason they came to Australia. Obviously income is connected 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.839 to all of that. But amazingly, the woman at the 0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:19.760 heart of this is telling people please don't donate, don't 0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:21.560 donate to anything that's in their names. 0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:23.880 We had a story about this on scoron Is yesterday that. 0:05:23.839 --> 0:05:26.760 She's just worried about anything online could end up being 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:30.960 sort of turned into a turned into some sort of 0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:35.160 scam or people will make the horrible opportunity here about 0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:37.159 the scam. So as soon as we hear about a 0:05:37.240 --> 0:05:39.080 way to support this lady, I will make sure that 0:05:39.120 --> 0:05:39.680 I will. 0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:42.720 Talk about it. But yet again. 0:05:45.800 --> 0:05:51.080 A reminder about how just how lightly we are holding 0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:56.719 on each and every one of us. The way that 0:05:57.640 --> 0:06:04.280 this has impacted me is I've had the conversations. I've 0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:06.920 had even louder conversations with my family about how much 0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:09.360 I love them and my friends. And the other thing too, 0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:13.719 is that when these things happen, or the Trump situation, 0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:14.760 or natural. 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:17.560 Disasters all the rest of it, don't hold grudges. 0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:21.720 Try to fix up whatever difficulties there are in your 0:06:21.720 --> 0:06:22.559 life right now. 0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:24.560 If you haven't spoken to family members. 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:29.240 For a while, bury the hatchet, because the reality is 0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:32.280 that again this family thought they were going to catch 0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:32.640 a train. 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:36.200 Half of it will never come home. 0:06:37.960 --> 0:06:40.520 Strength and love to their family, to the Indian community, 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:42.360 and to any and everyone who's watching us right now 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:44.440 having a tough time for whatever reason it may be, 0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:47.720 if you're watching us in hospital, if you're watching us 0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:49.680 when you've come home from hospital, or you're just thinking 0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:51.760 about the person who might be a bit crook at 0:06:51.800 --> 0:06:55.360 the moment. Again, as always, from us, strength and love. 0:06:57.680 --> 0:06:59.680 Now we all remember that one of the great goddesses 0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:02.440 of the Well she thinks that Australia is a racist country. 0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:06.080 We are in a racist, compulent space that we always 0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:09.680 have been at astray depressing. To give a license like 0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:13.760 that I find profoundly depressing and a terrible prospect for 0:07:13.800 --> 0:07:14.400 the next election. 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:23.320 Well Pole comes out today suggesting that a majority of 0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:26.480 people that have been surveyed do believe that Australia is 0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:30.880 a racist country. A pole of oney forty two people, 0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:32.760 which is part of a big series that's happening in 0:07:32.800 --> 0:07:37.160 the Australian right now. So seventeen percent of people think 0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:41.800 that the word racist describes Australia a lot, fifty five 0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:46.880 percent say that it describes Australia a little bit. Only 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:50.480 twenty four percent of people feel that racist is not 0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:54.280 a word that describes Australia at all, double the proportion 0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:58.440 in a similar survey from of twelve hundred and three 0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:01.360 people for news Pole for the fiftieth anniversary of the 0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:05.080 Australian newspaper ten years ago. Again, congratulations to Chris Kenny 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:08.080 and everyone involved in that great documentary celebrating this important 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:11.640 institution in Australian journalism that's up now at Skytiews dot 0:08:11.680 --> 0:08:15.119 com dot au. But eighty seven percent of people felt 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:19.120 that racist described Australia a lot or a little. So 0:08:19.160 --> 0:08:21.680 the good news is that there's somewhat of a change here. 0:08:21.680 --> 0:08:27.360 But still I don't understand this and I never do. Oh, 0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:29.120 But that's because you're a white guy, and you're a 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.280 white guy on TV, and you're a white guy on 0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:35.080 scott News primetime. Of course you'd never see it. Is 0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:42.160 their racism in Australia, Yes, But is there racism in Scandinavia, Japan, China, 0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:45.079 New Zealand, you name it. 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:45.800 Yes? 0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:51.679 Is there potentially even a little bit of racism in Antarctica? 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:58.520 Probably because that is the sad reality that a section 0:08:58.640 --> 0:09:02.480 of people in any country all over the world view 0:09:02.559 --> 0:09:04.800 things negatively through the prism of race. 0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:07.640 But I strongly. 0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:12.880 Disagree that the word racist describes Australia at all. Our 0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:19.160 laws are absolutely clear on it not being acceptable. Our 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:23.920 society does not reward in any way, shape or form 0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:29.040 people who are and quite correctly, when any of us 0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:34.000 start to see it, we call it out now each 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:36.360 and every night and each and every Australia day, in 0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:39.640 every time we've been on the air. I talk, of 0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:42.800 course about the Australian flag behind us, that this is 0:09:42.840 --> 0:09:45.880 not a symbol of white pride, This is not a symbol. 0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:49.120 Of any victory or. 0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:51.760 Anything like that from a couple of hundred years ago. 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:54.200 It's just the national ensign of a symbol of a 0:09:54.240 --> 0:09:58.560 country of twenty five plus million people who want to 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:03.400 get along. Will there be some people inevitably who won't? 0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:03.680 Sure? 0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:07.040 But the idea there is something deep in our DNA 0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:11.400 that means when somebody doesn't look like us, what doesn't 0:10:11.440 --> 0:10:13.760 sound like us, or doesn't believe what we believe. 0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:16.199 Then somehow there's a great fear that's out there. 0:10:16.640 --> 0:10:20.080 I just don't believe that's true, because, of course Australia 0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:25.679 is the nation of immigrants. The reality is that all 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:29.199 of us, to some degree, over a significant period of time, 0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:33.720 have some connection to somewhere else. For some people that 0:10:33.920 --> 0:10:38.200 literally was somewhere else this year, last year, five years ago. 0:10:38.280 --> 0:10:40.479 For some it's their parents, for some it's their grandparents. 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:45.040 As long as everyone who lives in this country wants 0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:50.880 to abide by the rules, and the rules are democracy 0:10:51.480 --> 0:10:56.520 and implied but not legally clear, freedom of speech and understanding, 0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:58.360 that you can believe in whatever you want or not 0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:02.120 believe in anything, and it does not affect your social standing, 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:04.760 nor should you be punished in either direction. That you 0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:06.640 can love who you want to love, You can marry 0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:08.120 who you want to marry, You can be mates with 0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:12.160 whoever you want to be so, I strongly disagree, but 0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:14.480 the survey's a survey and we always try to show 0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:17.839 you the data. But also the same report does turn 0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:21.280 around and tell us about migration. Now, remember the politics 0:11:21.280 --> 0:11:24.120 in and around migration is that to talk about too 0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:26.040 many people coming into the country at any one time 0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:29.560 is code for racism. But how many times have we 0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:32.800 said it? How many times have I mentioned it that? No, 0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:38.079 it's a conversation about infrastructure. It's a conversation about our 0:11:38.120 --> 0:11:41.320 city's capacities to have X number of people in it 0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:46.600 at any one time. Now, the reality is, as everyone knows, 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:52.760 the roads that we currently have are built to the 0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:57.120 standard from twenty or even longer years ago. When four 0:11:57.200 --> 0:11:59.360 lanes would be good, you often end up with two 0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:02.400 or one. If a toll road turns up and you're 0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:06.199 part of Australia, with very minor exceptions, it'll be two 0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:09.600 lanes and then they'll have to shut it down for 0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:10.400 years to try to. 0:12:10.320 --> 0:12:11.559 Push it into three lanes. 0:12:13.559 --> 0:12:17.479 We have a school system that, apart from grossly underperforming 0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:20.839 our kids, is underserving our kids. And we've talked about 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:25.160 the conditions of those classrooms. We've talked about how hospital 0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:28.600 ramping is an endless problem right around the country, but 0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:30.960 specifically in places where Labour's been in charge for a 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.920 long time, in fact too long. It's the worst it's 0:12:33.920 --> 0:12:38.280 ever been. It's the worst it's ever been in Queensland. Now, 0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:41.000 remember this is a problem because when you call Triple oh, 0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:43.640 the ambulance turns up. The ambulance then goes to the hospital. 0:12:43.800 --> 0:12:46.160 Unless it's literally life and death, then you're going to 0:12:46.200 --> 0:12:47.760 have to probably sit in the back of the hospital 0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:49.720 until there is eventually a bed for you to go 0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:52.600 in the hospital, meaning somebody else who needs to call 0:12:52.600 --> 0:12:57.800 Triple O may not get the ambulance there. That's what 0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:00.679 I talk about when we talk about the number of 0:13:00.720 --> 0:13:02.800 people that come into the country each and every year. 0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:05.360 But of course it's too easy to just pretend, oh no, 0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:07.199 that's all just some sort of coded racism. 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:09.880 Well again, same pole on this issue. 0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:13.640 Public support for immigration has nearly halved in the past decade. 0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:16.839 The Australians Needs of the Nation pole reveals that only 0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:20.240 thirteen percent of people surveyed support the increase in the 0:13:20.320 --> 0:13:22.080 number of legal immigrants. 0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:24.040 The pole Let's have a look here. 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:26.320 Says thirty two percent say keep it as it is. 0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:29.040 And remember that's a record highs forty eight percent SA 0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:32.280 drop because it's record highs, just thirteen percent of people, 0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:35.120 let's be honest, probably live in places that aren't about 0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:39.000 to be developed anytime soon. Think teal seats will end 0:13:39.080 --> 0:13:42.000 up or green seats at thirteen percent. In terms of 0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:43.760 the raw number of people coming into the country, let's 0:13:43.800 --> 0:13:49.520 compare this past year to ten years ago. Half a 0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:53.400 million and almost seven hundred thousand. Doesn't take a genius 0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:54.800 to work out that just a couple of years you 0:13:54.880 --> 0:13:59.400 hit a minion. Now you may also have heard today 0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:02.040 there's all these stories around about the number of babies 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:03.199 that we're currently having in the country. 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:04.520 Not enough people are having babies. 0:14:04.679 --> 0:14:07.240 So of course the conclusion will be in order to 0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:10.960 grow the tax base, you just keep importing more people, 0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:14.360 more people, more people. Now the political benefit, of course 0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:15.800 is that if they are over the age of eighteen, 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:19.280 they get to vote straight away. You don't have to 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:22.320 go through all of that discomfort of having to be 0:14:22.360 --> 0:14:25.000 trained through the school system to vote the right way. 0:14:25.040 --> 0:14:27.760 Well, you end up coming into the country and. 0:14:27.720 --> 0:14:29.520 Before somebody says, oh, there's Paul's that are doing the 0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:33.560 great replacement theory thing, garbage, just talking about logically what 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:40.400 takes place. So governments love migration because it's more people 0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:43.000 who come in theoretically more people paying tax. That means, 0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:44.960 of course they have more money to spend than ever before. 0:14:45.080 --> 0:14:46.960 And if they're over the age of eighteen, then hopefully 0:14:47.000 --> 0:14:49.000 they vote for the government that let them into the country. 0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:50.840 But of course you can't say that. 0:14:54.440 --> 0:14:56.800 Let's check him in, our old mate, Albert, how's he doing? 0:14:57.560 --> 0:14:59.560 Obviously I've been away for a couple of weeks, but 0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:01.320 time to talk about. 0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:02.720 The greatest prime minister of all time. 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:05.840 Here he is getting ready for his National spelling Bee. 0:15:05.880 --> 0:15:11.480 Oh he's just like us, is he not awkward at all? Now? 0:15:11.880 --> 0:15:15.480 When Joe Biden decided to pull a pin on his candidacy, 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:17.560 Albo was on holidays. 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:19.960 And sometimes when you're. 0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:24.560 The leader of the country or just a lowly TV host, sometimes, 0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:26.480 whether news is big enough, you actually have to go 0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:29.120 bugger where I am. Just get me to the gig. 0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:33.200 It's part of the privilege of doing what I do. 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:35.640 But it seemed to be a little bit annoying for 0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:39.560 the Prime minister, because God forbid anyone would interrupt his holiday. 0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:41.560 This is what he said in a press conference a 0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:42.360 couple of days ago. 0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:45.440 Well, I've tried to have a couple of days off, 0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:48.920 and here I am at a press conference on Monday. 0:15:49.000 --> 0:15:51.840 Might I say that the acting Prime Minister of Richard 0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:55.560 Barals has been given a bit of an easy time. 0:15:56.200 --> 0:16:00.280 Oh my gosh, just such a common touch, right, such 0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:01.080 a common touch. 0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:02.800 The bloke with two. 0:16:02.640 --> 0:16:05.600 Taxpayer funded houses, The bloke who's going to get not 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:08.160 one but two brand new private jets, yes, ordered by 0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:12.560 the previous government, but not canceled by this government. The 0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:15.040 guy who, of course understands your pain when it comes 0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:17.800 to cost of living, yet has plenty of things in 0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:20.520 his government that have made it worse. Well, there's a 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:22.560 little bit of political news to talk about here that 0:16:22.600 --> 0:16:24.640 press goverments didn't go down very well. Feel free to 0:16:24.640 --> 0:16:26.280 read any of the comments on any of the social 0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:27.000 media things. 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:27.440 That are around. 0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:31.160 But the number of people who are part of his team, 0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:35.200 part of the people who are sitting around the cabinet 0:16:35.200 --> 0:16:38.480 table as the ministers of the Crown, Well, apparently there 0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:40.120 is about to be a little bit of a change. 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:44.480 Why there's about to be a reshuffle. 0:16:45.040 --> 0:16:49.880 Why because according to Sydney Morning Herald tonight, there are 0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:52.560 going to be some resignations and dead wood is about 0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:56.440 to go. It is expected that senior labor of Ministers 0:16:56.480 --> 0:16:58.760 Linda Burnie Brendan O'Connor are about to say in the 0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:01.880 next couple of day that they will not be seeking 0:17:01.920 --> 0:17:02.440 re election. 0:17:03.120 --> 0:17:04.320 They even be pulling a Biden. 0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:07.720 Now this is interesting because, of course, remember we don't 0:17:07.760 --> 0:17:10.439 have an election technically until next year. Why would they 0:17:10.440 --> 0:17:12.679 possibly be pulling the pin right now, other than to 0:17:12.680 --> 0:17:14.760 give an opportunity for the Prime Minister. 0:17:16.080 --> 0:17:16.640 To have. 0:17:17.960 --> 0:17:20.200 Everything in place for an election whenever he wants it. Remember, 0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:21.880 he can have it anytime from August all the way 0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:24.240 through to the first part of next year, but with 0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:26.800 an interest rate rise coming on its way, he's unlikely 0:17:26.840 --> 0:17:29.240 to do that sooner rather than later. But the reshuffle 0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:30.960 gives an opportunity for him to get rid of even 0:17:31.040 --> 0:17:35.840 more dodgy deadwood, like, for example, the idiot immigration minister 0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:39.760 Andrew Giles. He should go, Clueless Clear O'Neil, she should go. 0:17:40.560 --> 0:17:44.120 But of course they won't. Factional reasons all the rest 0:17:44.119 --> 0:17:48.040 of it. But can I suggest that for the government 0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:55.360 to actually have some real impact, they should rearrange more 0:17:55.400 --> 0:17:57.040 than just the low level stuff and. 0:17:57.040 --> 0:17:59.719 It won't happen. I know it won't happen because, as 0:17:59.760 --> 0:18:02.200 we know, Jim Chalmers, future. 0:18:02.400 --> 0:18:05.399 Leader of the party, the right wing hope whenever Albow 0:18:05.480 --> 0:18:09.760 eventually decides to go in seven hundred elections time. You know, 0:18:10.160 --> 0:18:12.280 the guy who's going to remake capitalism and has got 0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:13.240 great stories from the. 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:16.840 Big day out but also investment. You want to talk 0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:18.560 about a minister who's done some damage here. 0:18:19.960 --> 0:18:21.840 Remember what he had to say about the federal budget 0:18:21.880 --> 0:18:24.800 this year that saw the two little too late tax cuts. 0:18:26.560 --> 0:18:29.119 Speak of the number one priority of this government, and 0:18:29.200 --> 0:18:32.280 this budget is helping Australians with the cost of living, 0:18:33.160 --> 0:18:39.400 responsible relief that eases pressure on people and directly reduces inflation. 0:18:40.160 --> 0:18:42.560 Except it hasn't now. 0:18:42.600 --> 0:18:45.639 Remember inflation is calculated every three months, but we get 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:48.199 a report every month. The Reserve Bank wants it to 0:18:48.200 --> 0:18:49.960 be between two and three percent, but it has now 0:18:50.040 --> 0:18:54.480 gone back up to four percent. So if Jim Chalmers 0:18:54.560 --> 0:18:55.879 is the guy in charge of the economy, but the 0:18:55.880 --> 0:18:57.800 economy is heading in the wrong direction when it comes 0:18:57.840 --> 0:19:00.399 to the very indicies by which the Brazil Bank will 0:19:00.440 --> 0:19:03.760 decide whether to lift or cut interest rates, then perhaps 0:19:03.800 --> 0:19:06.720 he is not as amazing a performer, as the press 0:19:06.720 --> 0:19:09.679 gallery will have you say. Now, of course they'll giggle 0:19:09.680 --> 0:19:13.440 and laugh and oh how dead even suggest it. All 0:19:13.440 --> 0:19:17.399 I'm suggesting is that there should be direct accountability in 0:19:17.440 --> 0:19:18.000 the lead up. 0:19:17.880 --> 0:19:20.560 To the budget. Post the budget, Oh, inflation's going to fall. 0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:24.639 Inflation went up, if the Reserve Bank puts up interest rates, well, 0:19:24.680 --> 0:19:26.720 then the accountability would be that the person who is 0:19:26.760 --> 0:19:30.679 clearly responsible for that should at least be thinking twice 0:19:30.720 --> 0:19:36.200 about whether he keeps the job until Albow eventually goes away. 0:19:37.600 --> 0:19:40.520 For the past couple of weeks, the CFMU has been 0:19:42.359 --> 0:19:46.480 under the pressure of well, their own actions. The CFMEU, 0:19:46.560 --> 0:19:49.399 of course hardcore, the people that are able to stand 0:19:49.440 --> 0:19:51.600 over governments, to be able to say no, no, no, 0:19:51.640 --> 0:19:54.280 The stopgo person should earn two hundred and fifty thousand 0:19:54.320 --> 0:19:56.920 dollars because they'll sit outside in the rain. 0:19:58.560 --> 0:19:59.679 Well, of course, sixty minutes in. 0:19:59.720 --> 0:20:02.040 The incredible reporting that they did a couple of weeks 0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:06.080 ago was unbelievable. Now, I hate when people come back 0:20:06.080 --> 0:20:07.719 from holidays and sort of talk about stuff from two 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:09.800 weeks ago, as if somehow the person filling in for 0:20:09.840 --> 0:20:10.720 them didn't talk about it. 0:20:10.760 --> 0:20:11.640 I'm not about to do that. 0:20:11.920 --> 0:20:13.199 But what I am going to say is that the 0:20:13.240 --> 0:20:16.920 CFMU today has announced its response to implement a code 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:17.520 of conduct. 0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:19.520 Oh isn't that wonderful. 0:20:19.880 --> 0:20:21.399 They're not going to clear ranks, they're not going to 0:20:21.440 --> 0:20:24.000 sack people, they're not going to shut down. 0:20:25.240 --> 0:20:27.240 They're going to put in a code of conduct. 0:20:28.840 --> 0:20:30.960 Of course, the Prime Minister says, oh, I'm going to 0:20:31.000 --> 0:20:33.520 be very serious about this, very serious, verous. 0:20:34.960 --> 0:20:40.120 My government has acted decisively. We will put administrators in 0:20:40.480 --> 0:20:45.680 because we will ensure that culture changes and we'll make 0:20:45.720 --> 0:20:51.359 sure that anyone with any links is removed from the 0:20:51.520 --> 0:20:54.440 union movement. What we want to do is make sure 0:20:54.840 --> 0:20:57.240 that any corrupt officials are removed. 0:20:58.119 --> 0:21:01.040 And you love anywhere's the bush hat system, Malcolm Turnbull. 0:21:01.080 --> 0:21:04.399 But still it's very marrick feel clean, isn't it. 0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:05.720 Well? 0:21:05.760 --> 0:21:07.720 Of course this government well now it's trying to turn around, 0:21:07.720 --> 0:21:08.840 so we're in a clean up the SURFA MEU. 0:21:08.920 --> 0:21:11.080 It's terrible culture, all the rest of it. It actually 0:21:11.119 --> 0:21:13.760 did the bidding of it. You see. 0:21:13.840 --> 0:21:17.280
