WEBVTT - Paul Murray Live | 19 May 0:00:00.280 --> 0:00:06.680 From the Skyinging Center. This is Paul Murray Live. Take 0:00:06.720 --> 0:00:08.840 you gain no sooks, no left is this Sunday night, 0:00:08.920 --> 0:00:11.600 looking forward to that debate your bold predictions and wait 0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:15.040 till I show you the latest example of albonomics. If 0:00:15.040 --> 0:00:17.840 there's any debate about how bad the last budget was 0:00:18.000 --> 0:00:19.640 last week, well we'll drive it home for you in 0:00:19.640 --> 0:00:22.239 a moment of two time. But first, and most importantly, 0:00:22.880 --> 0:00:25.000 did you say that a police officer was stabbed in 0:00:25.280 --> 0:00:28.880 Sydney this afternoon? Happened in broad daylight. Presumably some footage 0:00:28.920 --> 0:00:31.159 will come forward in the next little while, but a 0:00:31.160 --> 0:00:34.840 police officer was stabbed not once, but twice in the head. 0:00:35.360 --> 0:00:38.440 This happened on Elizabeth Street in the heart of the city. 0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:42.159 The person who police believe is responsible ultimately was tasered 0:00:42.159 --> 0:00:47.120 and taken into custody. Now, this does speak to a 0:00:47.200 --> 0:00:50.480 horrible problem that exists with knife crime, specifically knife crime 0:00:50.720 --> 0:00:54.360 in New South Wales and Sydney specifically, But there speaks 0:00:54.400 --> 0:00:55.960 to a broader issue I'll get to in a second. 0:00:56.000 --> 0:00:59.000 Here's what police updated this afternoon about this event. 0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:03.920 Shortly after one pm today, a thirty three to three 0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:07.360 year old male approached two constables who were performing traffic 0:01:07.440 --> 0:01:10.840 duties on the corner of Castle Raham Park Street. That 0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:14.119 thirty three year old male has produced a kitchen style 0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:17.200 knife about thirty centi minutes long and stabbed the mile 0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:19.679 constable in the back of the head a number of times. 0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:23.199 The injured officer and a female officer then given chase 0:01:24.040 --> 0:01:28.040 along Park Street up to Hyde Park near Elizabeth Street, where, 0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:31.320 assisted by a number of other police officers, that offender 0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:33.000 was arrested. 0:01:34.080 --> 0:01:36.119 Now let's just all take a second. How bad is this. 0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:39.800 We're not talking about somebody who produced a weapon while 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:42.000 they were being arrested. We're not talking about somebody who 0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:45.279 had produced their weapon in order to commit an earlier crime, 0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:48.560 and in the tussle of being arrested, the police officer 0:01:48.640 --> 0:01:51.440 was stabbed. No, as the police just told us, they 0:01:51.480 --> 0:01:53.800 were sitting there, this bloke comes up behind them and 0:01:53.880 --> 0:01:57.480 twice in the back of the head. The officer is struck. 0:01:57.800 --> 0:02:01.160 Now for every very obvious reasons. If producing a blade, 0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:03.640 they want to hurt, If they're going after the head, 0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:06.680 well pretty obvious that they want to kill. Now. Charges 0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:08.360 will be laid in the next couple of hours, so 0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:10.560 we'll all be limited about what we can say from here, 0:02:10.840 --> 0:02:15.200 but this is a horrific incident and an example of 0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:18.440 the type of crap that police officers have to put 0:02:18.520 --> 0:02:22.280 up with every single day. Did you know that there 0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:27.120 are two and a half thousand assaults against police that 0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:30.200 happen each and every year. That's according to the crime 0:02:30.240 --> 0:02:33.040 statistics in New South Wales. Now this was referred to 0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:35.920 as stable in the statistics, but when you break down 0:02:36.120 --> 0:02:39.240 two and a half thousand, that is six point nine 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:46.400 or seven assaults on police officers every single day, Sunday 0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:54.040 in winter, Thursday in summer, every single day, public holiday, weekend, 0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:59.400 long weekend, leap year. Seven officers every day are assaulted. Now, 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:02.160 they are not a soul as badly as this officer 0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:05.560 has been. We'll find out exactly what his status is 0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:08.840 in hospital throughout the hour. But to the men and 0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:12.080 women of our police force, it must be incredibly hard 0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:14.160 to get up and go to work each and every day. 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:18.519 Think about even on the best day, you meet most 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:22.880 people on their worst. If that people who've never interacted 0:03:22.919 --> 0:03:25.720 with the police before, this is something that they will 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:30.280 never forget if they're a victim of crime, no matter 0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:34.000 how allegedly small. All the way through the most serious, 0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:37.880 of course, it changes your life, but for the police 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:40.200 who have to keep going back to the same houses, 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:42.320 or back to the same streets, or back to the 0:03:42.320 --> 0:03:47.160 same suburbs. And now the idea, as has been too 0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:51.960 frequently remembered on Police Remembrance Day, that there is a chance, 0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:54.760 every time you say goodbye to your family before you 0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:57.440 go off on the twelve hour shift, which is always 0:03:57.840 --> 0:03:59.920 extended because of the paperwork that you have to do, 0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:03.160 you may never come home to the men and women 0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:05.920 of the police force who get up and go towards 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:09.320 trouble every day. Thank you to their families who lend 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:13.320 us the women and men of the news of us 0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:16.440 police force. Thank you to any and everyone who is 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:19.000 thinking about joining the police force, please do, and good 0:04:19.000 --> 0:04:21.840 on you. These people are amazing. Let's see how our 0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:26.840 culture reacts to what is an absolutely sickening and despicable act, 0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:30.960 but one that I believe has been too normalized. Show 0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:34.799 the numbers again. Two and a half thousand officers every 0:04:35.080 --> 0:04:39.479 single year. Two and a half thousand assaults on police, 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:50.800 seven every single day. That's in one state, one year. Disgraceful. Now, 0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:52.640 in a second, i'll show you the polling in and 0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:55.479 around the federal budget and surprise. Surprise is laded with 0:04:55.560 --> 0:04:58.719 a thud. But there's something that we haven't spoken about 0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:01.200 in the past couple weeks because it's all this other 0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:05.160 news around airbus elbow. Of course, this prime minister loves 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:10.920 flying overseas, to fly overseas, to fly overseas. He's even 0:05:10.920 --> 0:05:14.760 apparently nicknamed it Toto one after the dog Ah the 0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:18.560 kid so relatable. And of course he turns up in 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:22.320 every country waving as if there's hundreds of thousands of 0:05:22.360 --> 0:05:24.640 people there to meet him, even though it's often just 0:05:25.560 --> 0:05:28.720 local officials shake your hand and some people taking photos. 0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:31.279 It's not the president of the United States, it's the 0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:34.000 Australian Prime minister. And like all labor prime ministers, he 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:36.400 gets a little bit too excited with the world stage 0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:38.920 because it's not as complicated as dealing with things here 0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:40.880 back and home, and it's millions and millions and millions 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:45.279 of dollars. Well, last week, while the federal government was 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:50.359 so generously giving people thirty six dollars a week in 0:05:50.480 --> 0:05:54.920 a tax return, so generously giving us twenty five dollars 0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:58.119 a month to help pay off the power bills, guess 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:01.960 what was buried in the detail. Elbow's getting a new 0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:05.520 plane and they're buying another one for the ministers too. 0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:07.479 This story is just breaking as we speak on the 0:06:07.480 --> 0:06:09.880 Australians website. Will be on the front page of the 0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:13.960 paper tomorrow. Two planes, four hundred and fifty million dollars 0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:18.039 luxury private jets for the Prime minister. He gets one 0:06:18.040 --> 0:06:20.880 for himself, the puppy and CEOs who want to suck 0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:24.839 up to him, and the ministers and high ranking public 0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:28.400 servants they get one too. Seriously, is there any other 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:32.599 better example of other people's money than we're dealing with 0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:37.320 the cost of livering by giving you a fistful of nothing, 0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:42.880 whereas they get not one, but two private jets that 0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:44.919 they can fly at the same press conference at the 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:51.719 same time. Welcome to our bonomics, ladies and gentlemen. Big 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:54.480 stuff to talk about. Out of Melbourne now, there was 0:06:54.600 --> 0:06:58.920 a rally today against anti Semitism. Now, for those who 0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:01.640 saw the rally, they saw that this was an attempt 0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:03.840 by in part the Christian community as well as a 0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:07.320 Jewish community to push back on what has been an identifiable, 0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:09.680 growing problem that has been going on for the past 0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:12.440 few months. But then there was a thing called a 0:07:12.880 --> 0:07:18.120 counter protest. The counter protest no subtlety here, smash racism, 0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:22.400 crush Zionism, put the booth through the country of Israel 0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:24.200 in the genocide. Now, this is all the stuff that 0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:27.120 pretends to be pro Palestinian, but it's not. It's pro 0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:31.360 Hamas because it is about flushing away a Jewish voice 0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:35.960 here in Australia. The protests as they made their way 0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:40.000 through Melbourne today, well, of course the counter protest to 0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:42.880 the reasonable protest ends up producing an awful lot of 0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:45.320 police pushing shav and all the rest of it. Now 0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:49.720 I have had enough of the counter protest because it 0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:54.200 is the counter protest that always causes the trouble. You 0:07:54.320 --> 0:07:56.560 know that, when it's women who want to speak for 0:07:56.600 --> 0:08:00.320 their rights on the front steps of the Parliament, it's 0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:02.680 the counter protest that brings out all the police and 0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:08.400 begins the scuffles. The left always think that they are 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:11.760 able to confront on the streets the ideas that they 0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:14.720 disagree with. Now inevitably, this is why things turn violent, 0:08:14.920 --> 0:08:18.080 and inevitably it's why people who should be able to 0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:21.559 stand up and speak on their own behalf don't because 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:23.960 they're afraid of the intimidation that's going to come their way. 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:28.080 As you saw yesterday, a bunch of allegedly pro Palestinian, 0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:32.080 but most likely Prohomus people were marching against the Victorian 0:08:32.200 --> 0:08:36.040 Labor Party conference amazingly while they were inside and the 0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:39.520 doors were being kicked down or kicked in, i should say, 0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:42.080 by the protest as the Prime Minister was behind those 0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:44.920 locked doors telling delegates that they've done a wonderful job 0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:50.040 with social cohesion. The Premiere, in response to these scenes 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:54.679 out of the race course, I'm disgusted. No one should 0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:59.400 be cowered by these bullies. Just into Allen says, today's 0:08:59.440 --> 0:09:04.280 protests and intruders brought violence, homophobia and antisemitis in the 0:09:04.320 --> 0:09:07.640 front door of the State conference. I'm disgusted. No one 0:09:07.679 --> 0:09:10.280 could be cowered. No one should be cowed by these bullies. 0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:13.320 As Premier, my priority is a cohesive society were all 0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:17.600 Victorians feel safe and respected, and that's what she's allegedly 0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:23.359 fighting for. Well, what's the response to what happened today? 0:09:23.960 --> 0:09:27.160 What's the response to people who wanted to have an 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:31.240 antisemitism rally, not pro Israel, not thank goodness they're dropping 0:09:31.280 --> 0:09:34.760 the bombs, not let's take the death Tolder thirty six 0:09:34.920 --> 0:09:39.480 thirty seven forty five thousand in Gaza. It was a 0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:44.960 protest trying to fight antisemitism, hatred of Jews. Oh no, 0:09:45.000 --> 0:09:47.679 but that protest can't just happen. I know that people 0:09:47.720 --> 0:09:50.560 that are righteous, the ones that are right on man, 0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:54.160 decided to get in their face. Now, as you know, 0:09:54.360 --> 0:09:58.720 this is wildly complicated. But where the line is drawn 0:09:58.840 --> 0:10:01.800 very clearly for me, is that when an event is 0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:04.160 being held to mourn the dead of October the seventh, 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:07.439 yet people turn up on that same day to try 0:10:07.480 --> 0:10:11.679 to intimidate Jews. That is not for the Palestinian people. 0:10:12.679 --> 0:10:16.479 When there is a protest this weekend to stop antisemitism, 0:10:16.559 --> 0:10:18.439 people try to confront it and scream and carry on 0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:21.480 in their face. That is not for the people of Palestine. 0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:24.840 That is people who believe like that image has shown 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:28.360 us that the state of Israel should be white from 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:30.559 the map. That's not about two state solutions. That's not 0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:33.120 about the ability to freely move from the West Bank 0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:38.960 into Gaza, for it to be a country where the 0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:44.000 Israelis and Palestinians operate equally, equal voice, all of that nut. 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:48.880 That is about the overt intimidation of one population. Now, 0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:51.640 there is an absolute reason why there are protests in 0:10:51.679 --> 0:10:54.360 our cities each and every week about tens of thousands 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:57.880 of people being killed in Gaza. And you can simultaneously 0:10:57.920 --> 0:11:01.760 be somebody who like myself, supports the state of Israel, 0:11:01.800 --> 0:11:04.000 but also believes there has to be a limit to 0:11:04.000 --> 0:11:07.400 what the response is to October seventh. That's big and complicated. 0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:12.880 But the idea that people frankly intimidating Jews because they 0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:14.559 can and then pretending that they're doing it for the 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:19.400 right reason is garbage. BS. Now, it's interesting behind closed 0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:21.520 doors at the Labor Party conference, that was the line 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:24.559 in the sand for the premiere. What about what happened 0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:27.400 on the steps of the Parliament today. Let's see what 0:11:27.440 --> 0:11:29.480 she says tomorrow. After all, she's kind of been softly 0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:33.839 softly on many different allegedly pro Palestinian but at times 0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:38.240 pro Hamas marches that have happened in Victoria. Now, as 0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:41.520 for the actual war itself on the show, I've always 0:11:41.559 --> 0:11:44.560 tried to tell you about what might move the needle. 0:11:45.400 --> 0:11:47.840 Now without boring you, Benjamin Netanyah, who is only the 0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:52.480 Prime Minister of Israel because of a coalition government. Now 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:55.480 that coalition government has got insight at some very hardcore 0:11:55.520 --> 0:11:58.360 people that have basically said they want to wipe Gaza 0:11:58.440 --> 0:12:02.320 off the map through to puposedly more centrist or slightly 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:05.520 left leaning people, and one of the slightly left leaning 0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:07.560 people is now saying they will walk away from the 0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:10.480 government and thus it will collapse. No one will be 0:12:10.520 --> 0:12:14.080 in charge of Israel until yet another bloody election unless 0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:18.920 Benjamin Nenya, who comes forward with what does winning look like? 0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:22.000 How long are we still going to continue to do 0:12:22.080 --> 0:12:24.440 this now? Some will push back and say you can't 0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:26.720 possibly rule an end date, because then you're telling the 0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:30.920 terrorists what to do. The point is for Benjamin na 0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:33.400 who to be in power, for his Defense minister, to 0:12:33.480 --> 0:12:36.640 stay in power, they need to have this coalition. The 0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:38.800 news is big tonight if one of the members of 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:41.480 the coalition is willing to walk away from it unless 0:12:41.480 --> 0:12:45.280 those plans are articulated. You can like or dislike the news. 0:12:45.280 --> 0:12:49.040 That is the news tonight. Will update you again in 0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:53.199 greater detail tomorrow. But again, one of the reasons why 0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:55.800 Israel is under the pressure that it is right now 0:12:56.200 --> 0:13:00.120 is because of the effect on Joe Biden electorally. You 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:02.000 see Joe Biden in the United States as a chance 0:13:02.000 --> 0:13:04.480 of losing the presidency because of younger voters who do 0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:08.560 not agree with his position. In fact, some forty four 0:13:08.600 --> 0:13:13.160 percent of Democratic registered voters responding to a poll just 0:13:13.200 --> 0:13:17.280 this weekend or sorry, last week so that they disapprove 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:20.120 of Biden's handling of the crisis. Democrats who have who 0:13:20.120 --> 0:13:22.200 have disapproved of his response and now say they are 0:13:22.360 --> 0:13:25.400 less likely to vote for Biden at all. Now they're 0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:26.559 not going to go over and vote for Trump and 0:13:26.559 --> 0:13:29.240 they're not going to vote for Biden. The question is 0:13:29.280 --> 0:13:33.240 if all of this magically ended tomorrow, would they eventually 0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:35.960 come back to Joe Biden or have we passed many 0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:38.360 many points of no return and therefore they won't vote. 0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:40.960 So that's the politics, that's the news. Always try to 0:13:40.960 --> 0:13:42.320 tell you what's going on, and we can all have 0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:44.679 our opinions after that. But it's pretty precarious in the 0:13:44.800 --> 0:13:47.600 United States for Joe Briden, it seems to be if 0:13:47.600 --> 0:13:51.040 that coalition breaks, even more precarious for Benjamin Nia and 0:13:51.080 --> 0:13:52.920 whether that means you double down or you start to 0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:57.680 pull back or wait and see together. Now, while this 0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:00.360 weekend was supposedly all about the prime Minister and the 0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:03.520 Treasurer going from coast to coast, from sea to shining sea. 0:14:03.679 --> 0:14:07.760 As we move around to tell us how amazing the 0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:12.160 federal budget was. Remember best case scenario average tax power 0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:15.480 about thirty six thirty four to thirty six bucks in 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:18.520 tax cuts per week. Think about your last weekend. How 0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:20.840 far would that have gone? Lett alone twenty five dollars 0:14:20.920 --> 0:14:26.040 a month, seventy five a quarter or three hundred a year, 0:14:26.560 --> 0:14:28.200 which you don't get, by the way, It just paid 0:14:28.240 --> 0:14:30.880 to the power company to bribe them to not put 0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:34.000 up your bill that you end up getting. That's the government. 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:36.960 But as we showed you on Thursday, Peter Dutton a 0:14:37.000 --> 0:14:39.440 lot clearer, a lot easier to understand than the if. 0:14:39.480 --> 0:14:42.720 But maybe he's carry the one stand on one finger. 0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:46.320 Look for the asterisk that the government is putting forward now. 0:14:46.360 --> 0:14:48.200 He believes that one of the main things we have 0:14:48.280 --> 0:14:50.560 to do in this country is stop the number of 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:53.440 people that are coming in. Not because he or anyone 0:14:53.480 --> 0:14:55.840 who supports him hates the color of people, what they 0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:58.720 believe in any racial issues. This is because we know 0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:05.200 when you've got already record waiting for ambulances, when you've 0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:07.840 got infrastructure that is crumbling. When you've got lines around 0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:10.040 the block for a house, adding more people to that 0:15:10.160 --> 0:15:13.240 is not very clever. So he says if he becomes 0:15:13.280 --> 0:15:17.320 Prime Minister that he will absolutely take a slash for 0:15:17.360 --> 0:15:19.040 a couple of years to those that are coming into 0:15:19.080 --> 0:15:24.000 the country. We believe that by rebalancing the migration program 0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:28.600 and taking decisive action on the housing crisis, the Coalition 0:15:28.720 --> 0:15:31.920 can free up almost forty thousand additional homes in the 0:15:31.920 --> 0:15:35.200 first year and well over one hundred thousand homes in 0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:38.240 the first five years. We will reduce the permanent migration 0:15:38.400 --> 0:15:41.480 program by twenty five percent from one hundred and eighty 0:15:41.480 --> 0:15:44.680 five thousand to one hundred and forty thousand for the 0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:50.040 first two years, in recognition of the urgency of the crisis. Now, 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:51.480 I love these people who say, well, hang on, but 0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:54.320 what about the skilled migrants. Yeah, there's place for them, 0:15:54.760 --> 0:15:58.200 but maybe not their families, maybe not the extra world 0:15:58.200 --> 0:16:02.680 of foreign students. And I do of the foreign students argument. Now, 0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:04.960 for a couple of years, every university in the world, 0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:08.040 including ones here in Australia, learned how to deliver degrees 0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:11.440 not in person. So could somebody please tell me why 0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:13.680 if you want to study, and you qualify to study, 0:16:13.720 --> 0:16:16.320 and you pay up front to study at an Australian university. 0:16:16.480 --> 0:16:20.680 You can't do it on the internet from another country. Again, 0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:23.880 you were able to work from home to this very 0:16:23.960 --> 0:16:26.520 day in the public service. Why not study from home? 0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:31.200 Because apparently the economy is all connected to the many, 0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:33.240 many versions of the Ponzi scheme that just means keep 0:16:33.240 --> 0:16:37.760 adding more people, more people, more people, and everyone who 0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:39.880 eclips a ticket makes money. But everyone else who is 0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:43.680 amongst the community sees the problems that exist as a result. 0:16:44.040 --> 0:16:47.640 So I think it's very clear, let's cut immigration. Lot's 0:16:47.640 --> 0:16:49.720 any in a second wire. Australians agree with that and 0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:52.560 agree with it in absolute drives. But then there's the 0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:54.800 other issue, the issue that I talked about last week, 0:16:54.840 --> 0:16:56.640 the issue that I believe is being talked about in 0:16:56.720 --> 0:17:01.640 homes even more than the tax policy energy policy, which 0:17:01.680 --> 0:17:03.680 is how the hell are their kids or grandkids going 0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:06.360 to be able to buy a house? Well, an idea 0:17:06.760 --> 0:17:09.800 that costs the government nothing, And don't you love all 0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:11.679 the labor people saying, worry on, how do you cost it? 0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:15.959 This costs nothing? Ban the number of people from overseas 0:17:15.960 --> 0:17:19.040 bringing their money or sending their money here to bid 0:17:19.119 --> 0:17:24.240 against your kids and grandkids for a house. We will 0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:27.640 implement a two year ban on foreign investors and temporary 0:17:27.680 --> 0:17:32.280 residents purchasing existing homes in Australia. And I watched it 0:17:32.320 --> 0:17:35.080 in real time after the speech last Thursday. What was 0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:37.880 the lefty talking point, da da da da get done? 0:17:38.400 --> 0:17:41.000 And how was it? Well, apparently it was a populist 0:17:41.119 --> 0:17:46.520 speech on Channel two. Things like Australia first, well, that's 0:17:46.560 --> 0:17:49.080 not really Australian politics. And a real reference to Trump, 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:51.399 because I remember they're going to try to go Trump 0:17:51.440 --> 0:17:55.120 Trump Trump on Peter Dutton. But who has a problem 0:17:55.400 --> 0:17:58.919 with cutting immigration which stops the pressure everywhere from our 0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:04.440 hospitals and the bidding and stopping overseas people bidding on houses, 0:18:04.520 --> 0:18:09.240 that stops the pressure on prices. Well, of course Jim Chalmers, 0:18:09.240 --> 0:18:12.359 who's still out there saying, hey, I deserve a gold star. 0:18:12.440 --> 0:18:15.760 I'm buying the Prime Minister a jet. I'm getting a jet, 0:18:16.200 --> 0:18:18.439 but you're getting thirty six bucks a week. 0:18:20.280 --> 0:18:23.639 It'll cost the economy billions of dollars. But even the 0:18:24.359 --> 0:18:27.560 kinds of estimates that you will see are conservative because 0:18:27.600 --> 0:18:31.440 it's not possible to fully capture the damage that Peter 0:18:31.560 --> 0:18:33.920 Dutton would do to the skills base of this country, 0:18:34.440 --> 0:18:37.479 to our hospitals, on our building sites, the sorts of 0:18:37.480 --> 0:18:38.879 things that he hasn't thought through. 0:18:43.080 --> 0:18:47.280 Well, this little thing eventually comes around, and I'm surprised 0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:51.000 it's come around so fast. The opinion polls. The opinion 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:53.280 polls are that the budget has landed like the dead 0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:55.640 cat that we assumed it would be. And what did 0:18:55.640 --> 0:18:59.000 people react strongly to Peter Dutton's position when it came 0:18:59.040 --> 0:19:02.280 to immigration and stopping people being able to be foreign 0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:04.560 buyers when buying homes. This is from the Sydney Morning 0:19:04.600 --> 0:19:09.639 Herald and The Age tonight. Last year, sixty six percent 0:19:09.720 --> 0:19:13.840 of people say immigration was too high. Now they say 0:19:14.359 --> 0:19:18.159 about fifty percent of people believe immigration too high. In 0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:22.280 terms of how we're handling it all voters sixty percent, 0:19:22.320 --> 0:19:25.960 So the government is doing a poor job. It's unexplained. 0:19:26.000 --> 0:19:29.360 It's just all over the shop. For labor voters it's 0:19:29.800 --> 0:19:34.720 thirty seven percent. The Coalition voters seventy five percent of them, 0:19:34.720 --> 0:19:37.919 So there's a problem with immigration, and more importantly, not labor, 0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:42.359 not liberal sixty three percent of those people. And that 0:19:42.359 --> 0:19:44.520 could be everything from one nation to teel. They say 0:19:44.720 --> 0:19:47.399 the immigration system is in the wrong place. All of 0:19:47.440 --> 0:19:50.880 it is hurting the Labor Party electorally. Latest opinion poll 0:19:50.920 --> 0:19:53.800 remember primary voting here, they were at what thirty two 0:19:53.880 --> 0:19:56.720 of the last election. They're now down to twenty nine Nationally, 0:19:57.200 --> 0:20:01.560 they are currently behind the Liberal on primary vote. News 0:20:01.600 --> 0:20:04.000 of was Victoria, Queens and the rest of the country. 0:20:04.520 --> 0:20:07.800 Nationally it's thirty six percent for the Liberal Party twenty 0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:10.240 nine percent for the Labor Party. Now, obviously once you 0:20:10.280 --> 0:20:12.600 put two and two together, you end up getting two 0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:19.200 what thirty nine forty one that with the Greens, which 0:20:19.200 --> 0:20:21.920 means they've got to fight on their hands. What would 0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:24.440 happen with one nation preferences? What would happen with United 0:20:24.400 --> 0:20:27.080 Australia preferences? Well, if they do it in twenty nineteen 0:20:27.240 --> 0:20:29.159 preference a Liberal Party, this thing's going to be close. 0:20:29.680 --> 0:20:31.359 If it's a fox in all your houses, well then 0:20:31.359 --> 0:20:33.120 we get more of the same. But have a look 0:20:33.119 --> 0:20:38.280 at the comments in this poll released by the nine newspapers. 0:20:38.280 --> 0:20:40.719 One of the most anti liberal lefty joints that are 0:20:40.720 --> 0:20:44.040 out there quotes these are voters. I can't understand why 0:20:44.080 --> 0:20:47.080 millionaires would be given support. They're just trying to buy votes. Yep. 0:20:47.119 --> 0:20:50.960 We said that on Budget Night we're going backwards financially 0:20:50.960 --> 0:20:53.879 at a rate of knots. Yep. We said that on 0:20:53.920 --> 0:20:57.520 Budget Night it's very frustrating to see the government not 0:20:57.560 --> 0:20:59.960 doing anything for workers but funding bloods. We said that 0:21:00.240 --> 0:21:03.600 every night the cost of living and who's going to 0:21:03.640 --> 0:21:07.280 help more in their budget proposals about which way they're 0:21:07.320 --> 0:21:10.040 going to vote? Well again, cost of living, too little, 0:21:10.080 --> 0:21:13.280 too late, empty promises and double speak from the government 0:21:13.320 --> 0:21:15.000 has turned me off. We've set it every night for 0:21:15.040 --> 0:21:19.119 two years. I'm always changing, but the latest budget figures 0:21:19.119 --> 0:21:21.400 have turned me back to the Liberals. Well, hopefully you'll 0:21:21.440 --> 0:21:23.959 stay there. I've tuned out of Labor and Albow. They 0:21:23.960 --> 0:21:26.520 don't listen or care about regional Australia. We've been saying 0:21:26.520 --> 0:21:28.520 it since day one. This budget's a joke. I'm not 0:21:28.640 --> 0:21:31.320 voting for them anymore. Well good, I'm thinking of one 0:21:31.400 --> 0:21:33.439 Nation above the Libs as they're not offering enough to 0:21:33.480 --> 0:21:36.359 be different from Labor or reckon. The immigration stuf's pretty significant, 0:21:36.359 --> 0:21:38.680 but anyway it's out of control. So even if you 0:21:38.760 --> 0:21:40.720 vote one Nation, I think that person end up preferencing 0:21:42.240 --> 0:21:44.760 the Libs. Now in fairness, I do have to show 0:21:44.800 --> 0:21:46.720 you the polls that suggest that the changes to the 0:21:46.760 --> 0:21:50.439 Stage three tax cuts, the Made in Australia policy, the 0:21:50.560 --> 0:21:55.480 billion dollars to fight against domestic violence, and the energy 0:21:55.480 --> 0:21:59.360 bill relief, well they all got support from people, but 0:21:59.480 --> 0:22:02.400 no further del no further breakdowns abit whether they fully 0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:04.840 support or slightly support. So basically that's them trying to 0:22:04.880 --> 0:22:08.920 polish up their numbers. But the reality even with that 0:22:09.240 --> 0:22:12.040 three hundred dollars energy stuff, which really works out at 0:22:12.040 --> 0:22:14.600 twenty five dollars a month, what about the millionaires who 0:22:14.640 --> 0:22:17.680 own more than one house? Like this labor MP, is 0:22:17.720 --> 0:22:19.639 he going to claim it for every joint he owns 0:22:20.119 --> 0:22:21.600 he owns or just the one he lives in. 0:22:23.080 --> 0:22:25.800 Paul Fletcher who asked that question, My understanding is he 0:22:25.840 --> 0:22:28.000 hasn't had much of a business career in his life. 0:22:28.080 --> 0:22:31.720 He's always been employed in government or in government relations. 0:22:32.000 --> 0:22:34.119 You know, he doesn't understand how hard it is to 0:22:34.160 --> 0:22:36.679 make payroll. He doesn't understand how hard it is for 0:22:36.680 --> 0:22:39.560
