1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,120 Speaker 1: Now the Whyalea Steel Works which went through a bit 2 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: of strife about six or so years ago, and was saying, 3 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 1: how happened there? Lent on something? I think lent on 4 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: the mouse with the newspaper, Sorry about that. The Whaler Steelworks, which, 5 00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,280 Speaker 1: as I was saying, went through a bit of strife 6 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 1: a few years ago, saved by Sanjiv Gupta, British businessman 7 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 1: who bought the place one Steel as it was, and 8 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: now Liberty and is looking to install and have running 9 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: an electric arc furnace to produce steel. That was meant 10 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 1: to be online next year and it's been blown out. 11 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,280 Speaker 1: The timeline for this has blown out a couple more years. Now. 12 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: You wonder what that means for production of steel moving 13 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: forward and indeed for the steel works themselves. Frank Panglo, 14 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: Upper House Independent MP has been following this very closely, 15 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: asking questions in State Parliament. Frank Pangalo, good morning. 16 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, good morning mate, Good morning to your listeners. And 17 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,319 Speaker 2: I have almost for the past two months since they 18 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 2: first had the problem with that blast furnace, and they 19 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 2: then they just kept kicking the can down the road 20 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 2: saying it's minor, it's minor to be back online pretty soon. 21 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 2: Well it's not, and it's actually gotten worse now they're 22 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 2: saying it could be in July before it gets up. 23 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 2: My sources tell me that the blast furnace is virtually 24 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 2: ready for the scrap heap. It's seventy years old and 25 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 2: can't be fixed. Now that poses a huge problem for 26 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 2: Whyala it's workforce and also for steel production in this 27 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: country because they are unable to meet their orders and 28 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 2: now it will be almost what four or five months 29 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 2: before they claim that they can resume. But there have 30 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 2: been all these other problems at Wyala with GfG Alliance Matthew, 31 00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 2: including well do they have enough coal or coke to 32 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 2: restart the furnace once it if it gets up and running, 33 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 2: because my information is that a ship that was delivering 34 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 2: coke to Wyala to mister Gupper's plant up Anchor and 35 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 2: left when it wasn't paid for the coke. It couldn't 36 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 2: get any money. So there's quite clearly there are some 37 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 2: issues with Wyla still works as finances and the blast furnace. 38 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 2: And now we have Tom Kittsantonas in Italy meeting with Danielli, 39 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 2: the large Italian manufacturer of electric arc furnaces. Now, you 40 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 2: may have noticed in the last couple of days that 41 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 2: another of mister Gooper's promises have been broken about the 42 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 2: electric arc furnace being up and running next year. Now 43 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 2: it's twenty twenty seven, if we're lucky, if that's going 44 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 2: to happen. Now, I think the South of Australian government 45 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 2: needs to really come clean about what's going on in Wyala, 46 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: and they're not And I think they know what's going 47 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 2: on and they're not saying anything about it, and we 48 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 2: need to know why Tom Hutsontinus is going to see Danielly. 49 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: Are they going there to essentially provide a guarantee that 50 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 2: mister Gupta you can have the arc furnace, that they'll 51 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 2: provide a financial guarantee basically underwright the purchase of that 52 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 2: arc furnace. Because by Ola is so important to the 53 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 2: nation's steel production Mayew you can't emphasize how much more 54 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 2: they cannot afford to have that line closed down. And 55 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 2: mister Goupter's financial problems globally are sounding huge alarm bells 56 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 2: on top of that. I've been told and I'll have 57 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 2: to try and get this concern. But I understand that 58 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 2: mister Gupter as yet to pay the deposit on that 59 00:03:53,720 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 2: electric arc furnace. And furthermore, Danielly were making an electric 60 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 2: arc furnace for his Czechoslovakian steel mill, which coincidentally was 61 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 2: unable to pay its power bill, and they've held back 62 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 2: delivering that arc furnace. Creditors are three hundred and fifty 63 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 2: million US dollars by his company in Czechoslovakia. So there's 64 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 2: quite clearly a lot of financial problems going on here. 65 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 2: You have the creditors of green Sell that are threatening 66 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 2: to seize assets of mister Gupta's. He's mister paymer, I 67 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 2: think of something. I ate a nine hundred million dollars 68 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 2: to them. So there are all sorts of problems that 69 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 2: indicates that all is not well up there and the 70 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 2: government needs to come clean. They need to tell us. 71 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: You ask five questions of the Industrial Relations Minister, and you, 72 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: basically from what I see from the transcript, got back 73 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 1: a history lesson. 74 00:04:54,160 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 2: Well exactly nothing, a history lesson and a big cheer 75 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: up for the member any huge saying what a great 76 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 2: blake he was. And well, I didn't ask about Eddie 77 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: and his contributions to Wyala we want to know what 78 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 2: the government's contributions are going to be taxpayer contributions to 79 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 2: get the Wyala steel works up and running. Now, mister 80 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 2: Keutson Tonas did say last week, whatever it takes, whatever 81 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 2: it takes, we'll get it going. Does that mean that 82 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 2: they're going to have to underwrite the five hundred million 83 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 2: euro or up to seven hundred million euro cost of 84 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 2: this electric arc furnace and that's a billion dollars And 85 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 2: of course it jeopardizes the big plans for the hydrogen plant, 86 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 2: which was supposed to produce green steel. So there's all 87 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 2: these ramifications, Matthew, the result. 88 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: That's ket to what the hydrogen plant. I mean, you've 89 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: got to have one for the other, don't you you do? 90 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 2: And I'm also concerned for the people of Wyala. You know, 91 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 2: the reports I've received is that there's been a massive 92 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 2: downturn in businesses or in comes to businesses in the 93 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 2: last few weeks as a result of what's been going on. 94 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 2: And the workers. What about job security for the workers? Well, 95 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 2: you're fifteen hundred people, all right, and then you've got 96 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 2: the associated industries in Wyala. What's happening there? This is 97 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 2: a make no mistake. This is a great problem up 98 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 2: there right and the government has to really start finding 99 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 2: some answers and start telling us South Australia's what's going on. 100 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 2: We're going on up there? 101 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: When's the crunch for this? Frank, are we talking about months, weeks, years? 102 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: How long before? If they don't get the arc furnace, 103 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: if they don't get coke in, I'm sure well coke 104 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: would be the easiest thing you'd think to fix to 105 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: pay a ship ringing it in terms of expenses, get 106 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 1: that going, get enough coke to get the coal fired 107 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: furnace up report. 108 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 2: The reports are that they couldn't partnershipment and the shift 109 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,239 Speaker 2: just up anchor and left. It came from India apparently 110 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 2: that's my information. 111 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: I mean, if that's correct, then the potentially a crunch 112 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,119 Speaker 1: could come sooner than later. 113 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 2: Well, somebody needs to ask about the finances of GfG 114 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 2: and particularly at the steel works. What's going on there? 115 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 2: You know if at the moment they produced the shifts 116 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 2: for workers, so they're not getting the peneralty rates and 117 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 2: over time, how long is that going to last? You're 118 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 2: not making steel, make you you're not producing steel. They 119 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 2: apparently have brought in steel billets, which are pieces of 120 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 2: steel that they will then try and manufacture into various products. 121 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 2: But when you're not producing the large orders of infrastructure 122 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 2: that have been coming in, there's a problem. And to 123 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 2: say that it could be ready in well right now 124 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 2: they're saying and in early July, uh and that this 125 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 2: this uh, you know, this old blast furnace can be fixed. Well, 126 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 2: you know, for how long will that last? And what 127 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 2: other problems are there? Now? This has all got to 128 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 2: do with, you know, the due diligence of government right 129 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 2: at the time when they they agreed to the decision 130 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 2: was made for mister goufpter to take over that plant. 131 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 2: Mister g has just rolled out promise after promise after promise. 132 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 2: People in Yala will tell you what he was going 133 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 2: to do, massive solar farms, all this that and everything else, 134 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 2: and they haven't seen anything. Hardly anything has been spent 135 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 2: on that plane. So will it mean that the South 136 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 2: Australian government have to take an equity share in the 137 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 2: in the steelworks to keep it going. But it's a 138 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 2: great problem and the government needs to come clean, not 139 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 2: not the you know, get the the probally that we 140 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 2: got yesterday in Parliament from Industrial Relations minister. You know 141 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 2: it was just a thirfy. He knows what's going on. 142 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 2: He's in cabinet. It would have been discussed in cabinet 143 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 2: at the highest level, so I know that the government 144 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 2: is concerned about what's going on there. Tom Kitsontonis wouldn't 145 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 2: have been going to Danielli. He's he's not going there 146 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 2: for an express a feature. 147 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: That's right, exactly, exactly right, Hey, Frank, well i've got you. 148 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: Yesterday in parliament, what was a dress update? 149 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:38,679 Speaker 2: Oh well, three members decided to make a point and 150 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 2: yesterday apparently was also the anniversary of the time that 151 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 2: the Palestinians were removed and the Israel State was formed, 152 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 2: So I hope that was part of it. But nobody 153 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 2: got up and spoke about it. But I note that 154 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 2: in Victoria they've actually banned that shawl now because it's 155 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 2: a political statement. And there's no doubt it was a 156 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 2: political statement yesterday, but people trying to get noticed, right, you. 157 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,199 Speaker 1: Don't approve obviously, well, not. 158 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 2: Of making political statements. Look, it was what it was. 159 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 2: And if they want to wear that shawl in there, 160 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 2: all well and good. But I know that you know, 161 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 2: those three members have made many pro Palestinian statements, either 162 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 2: in the parliament or elsewhere, so quite clearly it was 163 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 2: a statement that was made in the parliament. And Nikola 164 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 2: Chenafardi said, is the floor of parliament an appropriate place 165 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 2: to do it? But in saying that you can wear badges, 166 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 2: I asked the President as to whether it contravened standing 167 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 2: orders of Parliament. Apparently it doesn't. The only thing you 168 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,719 Speaker 2: can't wear is if there's a T shirt that has 169 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 2: a message on message. So that's how they chose to 170 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 2: make their message. 171 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: But it's in parliament, the place where you go to 172 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 1: make political statements. 173 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 2: Well you can, you can get up and do it. 174 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: I thought that was the ideal place in parliament. 175 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 2: Well yeah, well okay, you can get up and speak 176 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 2: about it. But I think they was sending a political 177 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 2: message yesterday. And let me say that it's offended members 178 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 2: of the Jewish community. I mean, what would happen if 179 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 2: a member came in and was wearing the Jewish colors 180 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 2: or the Jewish flag draped around them? What would they say? 181 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 2: I'm sure that they would be outraged if that happened. 182 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 2: But look, it's all about freedom of expression. My concerns 183 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 2: is what's happening at Adelaide University and that encampment should 184 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 2: be stopped. 185 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, they were disrupted by fireworks the other night. Apparently 186 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: didn't get a good night's sleep or something. I read something. 187 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 2: Well, there's no evidence of who threw them. I don't know. 188 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 2: Did somebody connected with them trying just for them to 189 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 2: get some media attention. There's not many them there, but 190 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 2: what they are doing is disrupting the campus. And there's 191 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 2: also hate speech there. Now, I'm all four freedom of expression, 192 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 2: freedom and speech. I opposed, you know, the protest laws 193 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 2: that were passed last year. Robert Sims as a bill 194 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 2: today to try and repeal that. I'm going to support 195 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 2: that because I'm all for protests, but not when it 196 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 2: goes beyond that, and you have hate speech that is 197 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 2: being spread, and you have anti Semitism, you have Jewish 198 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 2: students that are afraid to go to the university for 199 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 2: fear of some kind of action against them. They've already 200 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 2: lost academics at Adelaide University, Matthew, including one world renowned 201 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,719 Speaker 2: professor who's been forced to go. I'm told of other academics, 202 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 2: you know who are Jewish who have had pressure put 203 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,079 Speaker 2: on them by the faculty themselves. You know, the vice 204 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 2: chancellor needs to show some gumption here and say, okay, 205 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 2: you've made your point, time to go, let's have the 206 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 2: you know we have that area back please so other 207 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 2: students can use it. 208 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: Well. Well, two things you must welcome Jennifer Westercott's comments 209 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: as vice chancellor over in New South Wales, where she's 210 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 1: made the strongest comments of any vice chancellor the other 211 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 1: day about the protests. The other thing is I walked 212 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 1: through the UNI grounds Friday night from North Terrace down 213 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 1: the steps past the Unibar and. 214 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 2: They didn't have fireworks are And you know what I 215 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 2: couldn't have. 216 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 1: I didn't look for the protest group. But through that 217 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 1: center area I thought, well, if they're here, I'm surely 218 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: going to see them. The bar was pumping over in 219 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: under the archers there. I had no idea where they were, 220 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: frank because I walked straight through. I was going to 221 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: North Adelaide and walking through and I didn't see any 222 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: of this is about six pm. Did not see a 223 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: thing apart from students enjoying a Friday night. 224 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,439 Speaker 2: Ah well, look, these are students looking for a cause. 225 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 2: I hope it doesn't get to the point that we've 226 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 2: got in Melbourne today where students have overtaken a building 227 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 2: there that are preventing other students from studying. Now that 228 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 2: happen and that university need to bring in the police 229 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 2: and get rid of it now. We don't want to 230 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: see that escalate here. But you want to see Peter 231 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 2: Hoy take some action here now. Ironically, he was vice 232 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 2: chancellor at the Queensland University back in twenty twenty when 233 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 2: they suspended a student for two years all because he 234 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 2: stayed the protest against the Chinese government for what was 235 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 2: happening in Hong Kong. Double standards, I think. 236 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: All right, Frank Pangello, thank you for your time this morning. 237 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 2: No worries. Matthew, thank you very much
