Speaker 1: On scoring wilds Australia. This is the Reader Panalty Show.
Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome to the readA Panety Show coming
Speaker 2: up tonight. The Albaneza government stands accused of facilitating the
Speaker 2: aggressive tactics of militant unions.
Speaker 3: Are safer me you?
Speaker 1: Boss?
Speaker 2: John Zedka doubles down on his threats against the AFL.
Speaker 2: The Great Douglas Murray joins me shortly to speak about
Speaker 2: why young people in Europe are voting for right wing
Speaker 2: parties and the latest on the hemas Israel Ceasepy talks.
Speaker 3: John Ruddick responds to Peter Dutton's.
Speaker 2: Plan to ban youngsters from social media sides and which
Speaker 2: Australian sports star.
Speaker 3: Has managed to lose millions in a property.
Speaker 2: Dealkinsisco film will have the latest celebrity and world news
Speaker 2: later in the hour, and of course left He's losing it,
Speaker 2: featuring two of the unfunniest women in the country, including
Speaker 2: this alleged comic Hannah Gatsby.
Speaker 4: The idea that men are transitioning to become women so
Speaker 4: they can dominate women's sports. You know, big up all
Speaker 4: those amazing pers you get in women's sports.
Speaker 2: Joining me now, Sky News contributor Kosher Gator Kosher. Let's
Speaker 2: start with the manner in which the union movement is
Speaker 2: flexing its muscle. And it's not just in Victoria, but
Speaker 2: across the country. As Jeff Chambers rights in the Australian labour,
Speaker 2: sweeping industrial relations changes have emboldened ACTU secretary Sally McManus,
Speaker 2: the organization's president Michael O'Neill, and other powerful union leaders
Speaker 2: to exert their influence. Intersection between the labor federal government
Speaker 2: and unions runs deep in Albanese's cabinet and Kosher he
Speaker 2: notes that if ministers had to recuse themselves over conflicts
Speaker 2: of interest with unions, the PM would be well running
Speaker 2: the show practically by himself.
Speaker 3: There won't be too many cabinet ministers there to help you.
Speaker 5: True, I think most of them either worked for unions
Speaker 5: or were members or were in leadership positions before. And
Speaker 5: the heritage of the Labor Party and the Labor Party's
Speaker 5: counterparts elsewhere is labor. The issue is this is one
Speaker 5: of the issues of our time as well, that there's
Speaker 5: a big tectonic plate shift happening around the working class
Speaker 5: and the labor class for two reasons. One is technology
Speaker 5: and AI and robotics and all of the stuff is
Speaker 5: happening at an exponential pace is going to displace labor.
Speaker 5: And the other is a self inflicted wound of immigration,
Speaker 5: which both parties, including the labor have have had a
Speaker 5: very heavy handed approach to that. And so people are
Speaker 5: not happy, the working class everywhere. You're seeing them redressed
Speaker 5: their agrievances and different venues. Membership is down, i think
Speaker 5: for forty percent a few years ago, down to twelve percent,
Speaker 5: and so they're figuring out ways to be relevant, I guess,
Speaker 5: and to appease and appeal to the members of these unions,
Speaker 5: and that's what all of the stems from.
Speaker 2: Well, this is one of the contradictory points because the
Speaker 2: union membership has plummeted. It was around forty percent now
Speaker 2: it's closer to fifteen. And yet under this Albanese government,
Speaker 2: and certainly under several state governments, they seem to be emboldened.
Speaker 2: We've seen in Victoria the CMFMU boss John Secker's war
Speaker 2: against the AFL.
Speaker 3: Well that's becoming more and more unhinged.
Speaker 2: Look at these posters the union has made up of
Speaker 2: the AFL's head of umpire in Stephen mcbernie threatening him.
Speaker 3: Until the end of the earth.
Speaker 2: That's a direct quote, as like a spoof of a
Speaker 2: wanted dead or alive poster. Mcbernie used to be the
Speaker 2: head of the Australian Building and Construction Commission and the CMFM.
Speaker 2: You want him to never work again nout threatening not
Speaker 2: only his current employer, the AFL, but John Setka was
Speaker 2: very clear when he spoke on radio that if the
Speaker 2: AFL do back him, his next employer will also have
Speaker 2: a similar campaign launched against it. So the question is here,
Speaker 2: how long before just into Alan.
Speaker 3: The Premier of Victoria steps in.
Speaker 2: This is a union that donates millions to labor at
Speaker 2: state level, at federal level. The relationship there is clear,
Speaker 2: and yet the premier seems to be hiding. And even
Speaker 2: federal ministers who have been critical of Setka's moves this
Speaker 2: week haven't condemned him. They've said, oh, it's not a
Speaker 2: good idea to take on the AFL if you want
Speaker 2: to win hearts and minds.
Speaker 3: It's a very weak response.
Speaker 5: Indeed it is, and it probably goes back to who
Speaker 5: their constituency is and who their electorate is, and how
Speaker 5: much do they care and if they're not feeling the
Speaker 5: pain from the electorate, they're not compelled to come out
Speaker 5: and give a stronger response against it. Also, if they
Speaker 5: really care about that constituency, the working class, there are
Speaker 5: other policy positions around immigration, around cost of living, all
Speaker 5: of that that they could do to improve how they're
Speaker 5: resonating with that base. But instead, I think it's easier
Speaker 5: to make examples of high profile people and CEO recruitment
Speaker 5: and people at the top of these glamorous organizations. That's
Speaker 5: maybe a cheap win and that's why they're keeping mom.
Speaker 2: We had Tony Burke speaking on this issue earlier today
Speaker 2: and he was treating it almost like a joke. He
Speaker 2: was laughing and refused to answer a very straightforward question
Speaker 2: about has John set gone too far?
Speaker 3: I would have thought the answer was.
Speaker 2: Yes, when you're threatening someone to the ends of the earth,
Speaker 2: but no, he kind of squibbed his answer. And it's
Speaker 2: not just that particular union or the AFL being strong armed.
Speaker 2: The Transport Workers Union is warning virgin Australia against CEO
Speaker 2: contender and front runner at this stage, Paul Jones.
Speaker 3: They're saying his.
Speaker 2: Role with Quantus and the outsourcing of the job scandal
Speaker 2: should see him not get this role again. They are
Speaker 2: putting very direct public pressure on Virgin Australia to act
Speaker 2: a certain way.
Speaker 5: I think we're in this era of guerrilla tactics really
Speaker 5: to get consequences or outcomes that we want. And people's
Speaker 5: policy positions or decisions they made when they're own leadership rules,
Speaker 5: following them on into any future rule that they ever
Speaker 5: do is kind of what this is about. And it's interesting.
Speaker 5: I'll have far reaching consequences too, where maybe it puts
Speaker 5: off people from taking on certain leadership rules if we
Speaker 5: come into this era where you're going to be subjected
Speaker 5: to gorilla tactics. But I think more of that is
Speaker 5: to come is that unrest fundamentally gets only worse now.
Speaker 2: An Australian woman who saved a newborn girl in China
Speaker 2: from certain death by adopting her raising her as her
Speaker 2: own will not see that child be made as citizen
Speaker 2: because of an intervention by Immigration Minister Andrew Giles. Alexandra
Speaker 2: Yagelman rescued the hours old newborn in Jisu when her
Speaker 2: birth parents expressed a desire to decapitate her because of
Speaker 2: brain injury sustained at birth.
Speaker 3: She raised the girl.
Speaker 2: Ever since, the girl's now healthy, vibrant young woman, and
Speaker 2: Angi's two other adopted siblings received favorable citizenship decisions from
Speaker 2: the AAT having near identical circumstances to her. The immigration
Speaker 2: ministers at the time of those decisions did not challenge
Speaker 2: the outcome in the federal court, but Andrew Giles did
Speaker 2: intervene and appeal the matter to the federal court, and so, sadly,
Speaker 2: because Alexandra was an Angie's mum at the exact exact
Speaker 2: moment of her birth, Ji cannot receive citizenship by dissent again,
Speaker 2: a bizarre, idiotic decision by Giles, which is kosher frankly
Speaker 2: hard to comprehend. Why would he intervene here and formally
Speaker 2: appeal the aaight's decision.
Speaker 5: It is strange and odd. Some speculate that he kind
Speaker 5: of stepped in it last year with that Order ninety
Speaker 5: nine that led to people with criminal backgrounds receiving prety
Speaker 5: favorable treatment for immigration here, and so maybe he's trying
Speaker 5: to swing the pendulum in the other direction.
Speaker 2: It's great to be tough on a young girl who's
Speaker 2: had It's.
Speaker 5: An odd pick, very odd pick, and then another self
Speaker 5: inflicted wound and unforced error sort of that. If you
Speaker 5: want to be tight on immigration, which we just talked
Speaker 5: about is one of the issues of our time. People
Speaker 5: want more of a hawkish position on that across party lines.
Speaker 5: That's where you should be playing and not making an
Speaker 5: example of a case like this where he's only going
Speaker 5: to lose. He doesn't look very good in the pr
Speaker 5: battle or otherwise, and it's making no difference to actual
Speaker 5: immigration policy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it be tough on crims, not little girls, would
Speaker 2: be my general advice. Now, before you go, more signs
Speaker 2: that the Albernezy government is a run by activist for
Speaker 2: activist guy and uses Senior reporter Caroline Markers has got
Speaker 2: this exclusive on the federal government granting millions of taxpayer
Speaker 2: funds for a new cervical cancer campaign to an organization
Speaker 2: accused of raising women from its messaging. ACN has used
Speaker 2: terms like people with a cervix to describe women, as
Speaker 2: also used the term front hole.
Speaker 3: I wish I was kidding, Kosher, I'm not.
Speaker 5: It's a few things. So one, we know this radical
Speaker 5: assault on language, really, and you're just trying to make
Speaker 5: everybody a sterilized widget because it is what we're saying
Speaker 5: that you're somebody with cervix or whole or what have you.
Speaker 5: And then the other thing is just taxpayer money. When
Speaker 5: it's slashing around, they probably don't even know the federal
Speaker 5: government down to that level of at the surface, it
Speaker 5: feels like a good cause. Okay, it's a cervical cancer
Speaker 5: screening campaign. Good thing. Millions of women die for cervical
Speaker 5: cancer and that was put to an end with these
Speaker 5: types of campaigns. Beneath the surface, though, there's like another
Speaker 5: hidden agenda now or maybe not so hidden, of radicalizing language,
Speaker 5: and they probably don't even think down to that next
Speaker 5: level of death, just keeping it at the surface, and
Speaker 5: that's a function of I think cowardice actually to address
Speaker 5: this language issue, and also too much tax perimaney slashing
Speaker 5: around and not enough of result.
Speaker 3: That's it.
Speaker 2: You're talking about more than three million dollars, so it's
Speaker 2: not a pittance, and you're right, there's a lot of
Speaker 2: money splashing around in that sector and not much oversight,
Speaker 2: it seems. Koshagata, thank you so much for your time
Speaker 2: joining me now, is best selling author of groundbreaking works,
Speaker 2: including his latest The War on the West, is one
Speaker 2: of the finest thinkers of his generation, Douglas Murray. Let's
Speaker 2: start with the EU elections. Voters in twenty seven countries
Speaker 2: of the European Union went to the polls, and as
Speaker 2: you predicted, Europe's swing to.
Speaker 3: The right continued.
Speaker 2: Right wing parties recorded some stunning results in a number
Speaker 2: of countries.
Speaker 3: And it's a.
Speaker 2: Contrast, quite a contrast to what we're about to see
Speaker 2: in the UK, with a hard left Labor Party almost
Speaker 2: certain to win in a landslide.
Speaker 6: That's right, Reta, it's extraordinary. Next month, in July, the
Speaker 6: British public will get to go to the polls after
Speaker 6: fourteen years of Conservative majority rule. The Conservatives look set
Speaker 6: to have a historic defeat. There's even poles this week
Speaker 6: that would put them as the third party in Parliament,
Speaker 6: beneath the Liberal Democrats. This would give a thumping majority
Speaker 6: for Labor Party, even bigger than the Blair landslide in
Speaker 6: nineteen ninety seven.
Speaker 1: It's an astonishing prediction.
Speaker 6: And I think all the polls show that it's basically
Speaker 6: immovable now. And it's the result of something that you
Speaker 6: and I have talked about before eat, which is the
Speaker 6: extraordinary failure of the Conservative Party under now five prime
Speaker 6: ministers to do what.
Speaker 1: The public has asked them to do.
Speaker 6: I mean, for instance, David Cameron came in in twenty
Speaker 6: ten promising to bring net migration down from the hundreds
Speaker 6: of thousands a year to tens of thousands, and the
Speaker 6: latest figures were almost a million. So the British public,
Speaker 6: from disgust at the Conservative Party and its treacher in
Speaker 6: failure of any attempt to really keep its mandate, is
Speaker 6: going to be voted out. And in the British system
Speaker 6: there's really only one way to do that, which is
Speaker 6: to be voting in labor. Meantime, as you say, the
Speaker 6: whole of the European continent is going to the right
Speaker 6: and to parties indeed which until very recently were described
Speaker 6: as far right. I noticed that the new one that
Speaker 6: the media is doing is calling parties hard right, which
Speaker 6: is a strange and right. And it seems that hard
Speaker 6: right is what we now have to call parties that
Speaker 6: we used to call far right once they actually get
Speaker 6: into power or become the main party representing their country
Speaker 6: in the European Parliament.
Speaker 1: It's an astonishing turn up, it is.
Speaker 2: And with the EU elections we saw in France, Marine
Speaker 2: Lippenza national rally had a remarkable result. Macron's now called
Speaker 2: a snap poll for later in the month. And it's
Speaker 2: interesting that in France, as elsewhere in Europe, it's largely
Speaker 2: young voters who are veering to the right again, a
Speaker 2: significant departure from what we see in other parts of
Speaker 2: the West.
Speaker 3: In France, they've.
Speaker 2: Got a charismatic twenty eight year old Jordan Bardello who's
Speaker 2: using social media really effectively to connect with young voters.
Speaker 3: Do you see that trend.
Speaker 2: Being replicated in countries like Australia and US and UK
Speaker 2: where young voters tend to vote for left wing parties,
Speaker 2: often even Labors not left wing enough for them. They're
Speaker 2: opting for parties left of labor.
Speaker 6: Yes, I mean that's been the trend and the expectation.
Speaker 6: But the European continent is bucking that trend. And I
Speaker 6: think there are some obvious explanations for that. One is
Speaker 6: that the technocrats who've been in charge turn out not
Speaker 6: to be all that good at being technocrats.
Speaker 1: I mean, take the case of Emmanuel Macron, an.
Speaker 6: Respected figure. He came from nowhere blue right through the
Speaker 6: center of French politics when he first ran now he
Speaker 6: had a reputation as being an efficient technocrat. He wasn't
Speaker 6: especially inspiring, but that he could sort of do the business. Particularly,
Speaker 6: people believed him when he said that he could take
Speaker 6: charge of the economy. He was one of the grown
Speaker 6: ups in the room.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, two weeks ago.
Speaker 6: Standard and Poor downgraded the French economy just ahead of
Speaker 6: the EU election, and that is something which I think
Speaker 6: has been massively overlooked by the foreign press. You know,
Speaker 6: when somebody says, look, I know migrations out of control.
Speaker 6: I know that we have serious security problems. I know
Speaker 6: that people keep on blowing stuff up in our country
Speaker 6: or trying to blow stuff up. After all, there was
Speaker 6: an attack that was thwarted just a couple of weeks
Speaker 6: ago from an islam Is cell that we're trying to
Speaker 6: attack the forthcoming Paris Olympics. Okay, you know, I'm trying
Speaker 6: to keep on top of that. The main thing is
Speaker 6: I'm in charge of the economy and I can do
Speaker 6: a good job. When that proves not to be the case,
Speaker 6: I think the voters think quite understandably. Look, the thing
Speaker 6: you said you could do, you couldn't do, and there's
Speaker 6: all this other stuff you haven't done. We'll try someone else.
Speaker 6: And I think that's what's happening actually across the continent.
Speaker 6: But you're right, Reto, it's a really interesting reversal of
Speaker 6: what was expected to be the trend. Maybe we've all
Speaker 6: been led astray by this weirdo far left fringe in
Speaker 6: all of our countries who sort of portray themselves as
Speaker 6: the voice of the next generation. Maybe they're not, maybe
Speaker 6: they're not at all, and the young French and others
Speaker 6: are actually going to the right. Jordan Bardella is one example,
Speaker 6: and the media are descinately trying to portray his victory
Speaker 6: in exactly the terms I predicted they would. The BBC's
Speaker 6: Europe editor, I don't know if he spends any time
Speaker 6: in Europe, has written about the far right being on
Speaker 6: the march. Interestingly enough, Rita, on Monday night of this week,
Speaker 6: the far left were on the march in Paris, with
Speaker 6: leading left wing politicians among their midsts, protesting and indeed
Speaker 6: in the end rioting and having to be dispersed by
Speaker 6: the Paris police. But you know what, Rita, none of
Speaker 6: the media, weirdly have said the far left is on
Speaker 6: the march. Why it's almost as if they believe only
Speaker 6: the far right is ever able to march, whereas the
Speaker 6: far left is, of course, this entirely benign force, which
Speaker 6: is of course who the media really.
Speaker 1: Want to be in charge, so don't show them as
Speaker 1: being in a bad light.
Speaker 3: And they declined to even call them far left.
Speaker 2: It's just left wing parties, even if they are characterized
Speaker 2: that way or extreme left is never used as it
Speaker 2: is for right wing parties. We've seen Donald Trump recently
Speaker 2: joined TikTok. He's trying to reach those young voters. It
Speaker 2: was a surprise move. He's had great success so far
Speaker 2: in reaching a new audience. Let's have a look at
Speaker 2: his latest post hereies with YouTube star logan Paul.
Speaker 3: Is he taking note of what is.
Speaker 2: Happening in Europe and recognizing younger voters have to be
Speaker 2: reached via these new platforms It can be quite difficult
Speaker 2: to get through.
Speaker 3: To them in the mainstream media.
Speaker 1: I'm sure he is.
Speaker 6: I mean, of course, Donald Trump's extraordinary success in twenty
Speaker 6: sixteen was in large part the result of him using
Speaker 6: Twitter so well. Of course, you know the then pretty
Speaker 6: elon musk. Twitter couldn't forgive itself for being used in
Speaker 6: this way and was obviously mortified, but remember how well
Speaker 6: he used Twitter. All the ad money that his opponents
Speaker 6: were spending on the traditional networks, he didn't need to
Speaker 6: spend because everyone was writing about him and talking about
Speaker 6: him on the basis of any moment's tweet. His two
Speaker 6: thumbs saved millions and millions of dollars of ad campaign spending.
Speaker 6: But this time it's sort of inevitable. He'll try other
Speaker 6: mediums and the TikTok will be one of them, and
Speaker 6: we'll see if it works. We'll see there's no reason
Speaker 6: why young Americans are going to have to vote Democrat
Speaker 6: any more than why a young French voters are going
Speaker 6: to have to vote for the far left parties there.
Speaker 6: But you know, Trump is, of course an extremely engaging performer,
Speaker 6: and he's a man who grew up in the media.
Speaker 6: You know, he was a television star before he was president.
Speaker 6: He's very very aware and very canny about using media
Speaker 6: and social media.
Speaker 1: So it'll be very interesting.
Speaker 6: I suspect that his rivals will do everything they can
Speaker 6: to cut off this way of accessing directly the public,
Speaker 6: but there won't be very much they can do.
Speaker 2: Now, let's talk about the Hamas Israeli war, the US
Speaker 2: backed ceasefire proposal, the negotiations there are continuing. Her Mass
Speaker 2: sent back an unworkable counteroffer. Even the US Secretary of
Speaker 2: State Anthony Blincoln acknowledges that the war's going to go
Speaker 2: on with that unworkable counter from her Mask. They're refusing
Speaker 2: to agree to a plan that would include the release
Speaker 2: of hostages in exchange for a cease fire. But it's
Speaker 2: worth noting Douglas that the Biden administration has the likes
Speaker 2: of National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, who has said some
Speaker 2: of the amendments proposed by her Mass are minor and anticipated.
Speaker 2: It's almost like he's negotiating on their behalf. So much
Speaker 2: for not negotiating with terrorists, it seems the Biden administrations
Speaker 2: some who are negotiating on behalf of terrorists.
Speaker 6: I find this latest round of peace talks that be
Speaker 6: an extraordinary set of events. Israel Is trying to get
Speaker 6: the remaining hostages back performed or the IDF performs. Special
Speaker 6: Forces performed an extraordinarily impressive raid this past week in
Speaker 6: which they rescued for four of the poor Israelis who
Speaker 6: are stolen from the Nova Party on the seventh October
Speaker 6: last year, and have been tortured and more in captivity
Speaker 6: all the last eight months. So the Israelis want to
Speaker 6: find a way, of course, to get the hostages back
Speaker 6: with the Americans and other interlocutors. They've got this plan,
Speaker 6: and this plan would bring an end to the war. Now,
Speaker 6: who is the party that refuses to bring an end
Speaker 6: to the war. It's Hamas. And I wonder, rita, whether
Speaker 6: all the morons protesting on the streets of Australia and
Speaker 6: America and everywhere else in the West calling for ceasefire
Speaker 6: will register for even a moment that a ceasefire actually
Speaker 6: is on the table once again. And who is it
Speaker 6: that has rejected it?
Speaker 1: Hamas?
Speaker 6: And you know, I wonder whether any of these morons
Speaker 6: will notice this.
Speaker 1: I doubt it.
Speaker 6: But if the war is going to go on, everybody
Speaker 6: can say now with one hundred certainty, as you could
Speaker 6: for the last eight months.
Speaker 1: The reason that there is no ceasefire is because of Hamas.
Speaker 2: Absolutely well, the morons as you call them, marching in
Speaker 2: the streets in Australia. They never mention her mass. It's
Speaker 2: always like her mass don't exist.
Speaker 3: And you are going to.
Speaker 2: Be involved in a debate next week where you will
Speaker 2: argue that anti Zionism is anti Semitism. Tell me why
Speaker 2: you think that is the case, Because there are many
Speaker 2: on the left in particular, who argue that being anti
Speaker 2: Israel being anti Zionist is not the same I'm as
Speaker 2: being anti Semitic, and they point often to the fact
Speaker 2: that there are prominent Jews who call themselves anti Zionists.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm going to keep my power dry for Toronto
Speaker 6: on Monday night.
Speaker 1: It's a giving it away. I'm not giving anything away.
Speaker 6: I mean, it's a topic that's incredibly important because just
Speaker 6: look at the way in which this word Zionist is
Speaker 6: now thrown around.
Speaker 1: I mean, the the.
Speaker 6: The disgust with which it's thrown around, the way in
Speaker 6: which this word that describes this noble, wonderful concept of
Speaker 6: Jewish statehood is being used as a slur. And you know,
Speaker 6: as I say, once again, I've seen it myself.
Speaker 1: So recently in Australia, in Melbourne and Sydney, you had
Speaker 1: protestas screaming about Zionists. Zionists.
Speaker 6: Do they know what they're talking about? I don't think so.
Speaker 6: So I do want to set the record straight on
Speaker 6: some of that. I think that this is an extraordinary
Speaker 6: moment where there should be a moment of clarity in
Speaker 6: the West about this, and instead, I think that we're
Speaker 6: seeing an explosion of bigotry. And I'm looking forward to
Speaker 6: getting into the weeds in Toronto on Monday. So I
Speaker 6: think it's sold out, But anyone who wants to come
Speaker 6: to Roy Thompson Hall, perhaps they can bribe their way
Speaker 6: to get a ticket.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Oh, I pity whoever is facing you in this debate.
Speaker 2: You're not a man I would want to be all
Speaker 2: out debate, particularly on an issue like this, because I
Speaker 2: know you're passionate about it, and the debate is timely
Speaker 2: because we now have people marching in America and elsewhere
Speaker 2: in the West calling on his bulla to murder Zionus
Speaker 2: and it's just disturbing footage. A quick look, and I
Speaker 2: also want to get your reaction, Douglas, to what we've
Speaker 2: seen unfold after the rescue of those four hostages, so
Speaker 2: much criticism of Israel's tactics and the alleged collateral damage
Speaker 2: from the rescue mission. Was there another way for Israel
Speaker 2: to rescue its people. Should they have issued a warning.
Speaker 2: As the BBC suggested before launching the mission.
Speaker 1: It was amazing.
Speaker 6: First of all, on the Hasbala people just notice again,
Speaker 6: like the KKK, these people don't have the confidence to
Speaker 6: show their faces. Isn't it interesting that they're calling for
Speaker 6: supports for genocide terrorist organization, but weirdly they cover their faces.
Speaker 6: Maybe maybe they're not so sure of their views, maybe
Speaker 6: they're not so proud of them. Maybe they know that
Speaker 6: Mummy wouldn't be so proud of them. Who knows. As
Speaker 6: for as for the sort of the raid, this week,
Speaker 6: much of the media reported it as the release of
Speaker 6: four Israeli hostages.
Speaker 1: They weren't brave Israelis.
Speaker 6: Who are superbly trained went in and freed and rescued
Speaker 6: these all three men and one woman. And the reporting
Speaker 6: on this has been absolutely despicable.
Speaker 1: You mentioned the.
Speaker 6: BBC journalist who asked an Israeli official why they didn't
Speaker 6: give an advance warning of the raid in Gaza.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 6: That's like asking somebody why they didn't go up to
Speaker 6: somebody and say I'm so sorry I can't come to
Speaker 6: your surprise birthday party.
Speaker 1: I mean, the whole point of a record like this
Speaker 1: is that it's a surprise.
Speaker 6: And the reason is that if you'd have given advanced
Speaker 6: warning to Hamas in Gaza, then the hostages would most
Speaker 6: likely have been killed or spirited away to a tunnel
Speaker 6: that Hamas has built at all of our expense in
Speaker 6: the West. I mean, I'm stunned, as I've said to
Speaker 6: you before, read the simple lack of empathy with the
Speaker 6: situation that the Israelis are in.
Speaker 1: They have more than one.
Speaker 6: Hundred hostages still held by Hamas and islamage he had
Speaker 6: and terror groups and journalists and others so called journalists
Speaker 6: in Gaza. They want to get the hostages home. If
Speaker 6: Hamaz wanted to end the war, it could end it
Speaker 6: tomorrow by handing over the hostages. Israel found the opportunity
Speaker 6: to get four of the hostages out. They were being
Speaker 6: harbored in civilian homes, the civilian area, and there is
Speaker 6: a war going on there. And you know the people
Speaker 6: who say, you know there was collateral damage, there were.
Speaker 1: People killed, innocent people killed.
Speaker 6: I wouldn't believe the Hamaz figures, by the way, and
Speaker 6: those are the ones that most of the media have
Speaker 6: run with as any But even if any innocent civilians
Speaker 6: were killed, obviously that's sad. But you know, the problem
Speaker 6: is is that it's almost like there's a moral lesson
Speaker 6: in this. Don't kidnap people and hold them in your house.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is a good lesson that would reduce your
Speaker 2: chances of being involved in something like this. Before you go,
Speaker 2: I'm interested in your take on this debate that's happening
Speaker 2: online poll from twenty twenty three is causing a great
Speaker 2: deal of debate among atheists, many of them embarrassed by
Speaker 2: the results. The poll found that atheists more like to
Speaker 2: support miners undergoing gender transition than any other religious belief,
Speaker 2: and only one in three douglas of atheists support a
Speaker 2: ban on transitioning miners.
Speaker 1: How can that be?
Speaker 2: Where atheists that I am one, I was opposed to
Speaker 2: hold science based, evidence based beliefs, and I have trouble
Speaker 2: reconciling that with these results.
Speaker 6: Well, you know, Rita, I don't think that anyone has
Speaker 6: or any one group has a sort of.
Speaker 1: Prerogative on reason and rationalism.
Speaker 6: Atheists tend to say that they want to adhere in
Speaker 6: their moral frames to principles of reason and rationalism. I
Speaker 6: would simply say that this is a demonstration of something
Speaker 6: we've seen many times before, which is that the most
Speaker 6: reasonable and rational people can sign up to the most
Speaker 6: unreasonable and irrational cults. The Gender we Were transition cult
Speaker 6: is one of the cults of our time. In previous ages,
Speaker 6: some of these people would have tried to work how
Speaker 6: to turn base metals into gold.
Speaker 1: But we don't live in an age of alchemy. We
Speaker 1: live in the.
Speaker 6: Age of bizarre transition surgery, where where cac handed and
Speaker 6: wicked surgeons tried to turn boys into girls and girls
Speaker 6: into boys, and they have as much success as alchemists
Speaker 6: did in the past. I'm very sorry for atheists who've
Speaker 6: fallen for this, but I would say that it should
Speaker 6: be a warning to them that actually.
Speaker 1: Even if you make reason and rationalism.
Speaker 6: Your gods, you may fail to live up to your ideals.
Speaker 6: And these people in that pole reader most certainly have
Speaker 6: failed to live up to those ideals.
Speaker 3: Douglas Marry, it's always a pleasure. Thank you for time,
Speaker 3: this evening great pleasure.
Speaker 1: Thank you still to come.
Speaker 2: And lefties losing it and Peter Dutton under attack by libertarians.
Speaker 3: Over his plan to ban under sixteens from.
Speaker 2: Social media, welcome back. Now it's time for lefties losing it,
Speaker 2: and I regret to inform you that alleged comic Hannah Gansby.
Speaker 3: Is added again with this confused.
Speaker 2: And painfully unfunny die tribe against men who think it's
Speaker 2: wrong for biological males to invade women's sport. They may
Speaker 2: not want their daughter's disadvantage in sporting events. They may
Speaker 2: not want a scholarship their loved one has worked years
Speaker 2: to achieve, going to a male identifying as a female.
Speaker 2: Apparently these men must shut up to make miserable Mona
Speaker 2: Hannah happy.
Speaker 4: I think it's adorable how so many men are all
Speaker 4: of a sudden very concerned about women's sport. That's new,
Speaker 4: that's real new, Like the idea that men are transitioning
Speaker 4: to become women so they can dominate women's sports. You know,
Speaker 4: pick up all those amazing perks you get in women's sports.
Speaker 1: Perks.
Speaker 2: It may have escaped Hannah's attention, but there are actually
Speaker 2: great perks in women's sport, from the sense of achievement
Speaker 2: to scholarships, sponsorships, selection in sporting events, from local carnivals
Speaker 2: to be Olympics. It's worth remembering that this lefty losing
Speaker 2: it is a loved by the humorless leftist media. Just
Speaker 2: look at the critics ratings of her Netflix special Nenette.
Speaker 2: It received one hundred percent, but the audience score, as
Speaker 2: you can see there, is a pitiful twenty six percent.
Speaker 2: Now to another unfunny comic who doesn't have a Netflix special,
Speaker 2: but she sure has abundant reserves of vile bitterness and
Speaker 2: anti Israeli hate. Here is far left comic Sarah Bartello
Speaker 2: mocking Jews who are currently under attacked by anti Semites.
Speaker 2: Apparently it's all their own fault. Talk about victim blaming, said.
Speaker 7: VH, how can I help you? Yes, you've come through
Speaker 7: to the Zionis Victim Hotline. Yeah for sure. Okay, so
Speaker 7: you're feeling triggered and threatened right, Well, it is on
Speaker 7: the rise, that's for sure. Can I ask what was
Speaker 7: the incident? Really?
Speaker 1: A watermelon budge? These people?
Speaker 7: These people have their no shame.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's a lot to deal with.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I can definitely empathize. Did you mention October seven?
Speaker 8: You did?
Speaker 1: That's great, that's good.
Speaker 7: Oh, they about the seventy six years of occupation. Interesting,
Speaker 7: they're really learning about the history that we've been trying
Speaker 7: so hard to cover.
Speaker 1: Up all these years, are they.
Speaker 3: Okay?
Speaker 7: So here's what I think you should do. I think
Speaker 7: you should wear as many Star of Davis as you can. Yep,
Speaker 7: the same Star of David that we used to brandish
Speaker 7: Palestinian prisoners, amongst other things, and just call it Andie Semitic. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 7: it works like a charm growth.
Speaker 2: Now let's end on a positive note. Let's take a
Speaker 2: minute and admire a Christian man who politely and methodically
Speaker 2: school's a dude who questioned him about his Christian beliefs.
Speaker 8: You said, I'm from Africa. You are surprised that we
Speaker 8: from Africa worship at White Month.
Speaker 9: Yes, And I.
Speaker 8: Said, you Muslims colonize many countries, and you impose Islam
Speaker 8: and a god from Arabia on those countries that you
Speaker 8: went Allah was not known in Africa, was known only
Speaker 8: in Arabia because Arabic language, right, The Jews never mentioned
Speaker 8: Alah in all their books.
Speaker 4: You can.
Speaker 8: The best you can get close to is Alaha, which
Speaker 8: is not the same anyway. So the name Alli is
Speaker 8: not known by any of the previous prophets. It's a
Speaker 8: new name. And according to the Torah, we don't need
Speaker 8: to follow a God that is not known by our fathers. Now,
Speaker 8: for you to say we Africa's worship a white man,
Speaker 8: it shows you're ignorant. Why I'm saying you're ignorant, respectfully,
Speaker 8: it is because Jesus is not from Europe, He's from Israel.
Speaker 8: They are not white people.
Speaker 2: Joining me now is New South Wales Liberterranian Pete John Raddick.
Speaker 5: John.
Speaker 2: Let's start with the hard left counselor who wants landlords
Speaker 2: to pay quadruple the amount of cancel tax that owner
Speaker 2: occupiers would pay.
Speaker 3: This is a plan that's been considered in Mary Back.
Speaker 2: This counselor was on seven News doubling down on this lunacy.
Speaker 10: Landlords and property investors are actually causing the housing crisis.
Speaker 10: So we don't actually need any landlords. They are all
Speaker 10: proper investors that don't produce anything. They don't actually create housing.
Speaker 10: If you look at where if you look at where
Speaker 10: the overwhelming proportion of the overwhelming where that's not lending
Speaker 10: goes to, it actually actually got new. Most lending goes
Speaker 10: to for property investors goes to existing homes rather than new.
Speaker 10: So it's actually not true that investors produce anything. What
Speaker 10: they do is they actually hold homes and then rent
Speaker 10: them out at exorbitant rates. So we could actually really
Speaker 10: do without, really do without, James without, and that would
Speaker 10: be better.
Speaker 2: There you go, Jona, They don't need landlords in Rebecca.
Speaker 2: Never mind that around the third of the residents of
Speaker 2: that council happened to be renters.
Speaker 9: Well, reader, I've got a prediction, and that is that
Speaker 9: our young counselor friend is never going to win the
Speaker 9: Nobel Prize for Economics because look, what we need to
Speaker 9: understand is that housing is just another form of investment. Okay. Now, now,
Speaker 9: if people don't think they're going to get a good
Speaker 9: return out of investing in housing, they'll invest in the
Speaker 9: stock market or other private investments. So we need to
Speaker 9: make it. We need to be very pro landlords, pro development. Now,
Speaker 9: where this person is coming from is he doesn't have
Speaker 9: the right solution, but there is a crisis, and he
Speaker 9: has touched on the fact that there is a crisis.
Speaker 9: The crisis is caused, particularly in Sydney and Melbourne, by
Speaker 9: excessive planning and zoning laws and the government meddling, meddling,
Speaker 9: black tape, green tape, red tape everything. There is one
Speaker 9: city in the United States, which are bolished planning laws.
Speaker 9: In the nineteen fifties, it's called Houston, fifth biggest city
Speaker 9: in the United States, no planning laws. If you own
Speaker 9: private property, you can do with it whatever you want. Now,
Speaker 9: if we have that in Sydney and Melbourne, which is
Speaker 9: what our party is stand for, we're going to see
Speaker 9: a housing boom. We're going to see rents come down
Speaker 9: and prices come down, and.
Speaker 2: We're going to see some weird developments. Though, John, let's
Speaker 2: not forget that. But let's go back to the economic
Speaker 2: illiteracy of this particular counselor. He explained his understanding of
Speaker 2: what would happen if property investors exited the market.
Speaker 10: So, yeah, so we do have a lot of renters
Speaker 10: in Merriybeck. So the purpose of this proposal is to
Speaker 10: change the ownership composition of property in Merriybeck so that
Speaker 10: we actually have fewer investors. And so what we're trying
Speaker 10: to do here is to make it unattractive for investors
Speaker 10: to invest in Merriyback so that they leave. And then
Speaker 10: what will happen is those houses won't disappear, they don't
Speaker 10: fall off the face of the earth. What happens is
Speaker 10: that they become available for somebody else, particularly first home
Speaker 10: by So what we're doing is we're reducing the number
Speaker 10: of investors in Merybeck and making more homes available for
Speaker 10: first home buyers to purchase. J I think is a
Speaker 10: great outcome.
Speaker 2: It's a great outcome because most renters join are ready
Speaker 2: to buy property, they have deposit the bank approval that
Speaker 2: doesn't have a genius like this to make it happen
Speaker 2: for them. If this is the state of local councils
Speaker 2: or some local counselors, it helps explain why we have
Speaker 2: a housing crisis because we've got policies at the federal, state,
Speaker 2: and local government level that frustrate developers, make people invest
Speaker 2: their money elsewhere, and meanwhile rents are skyrocketing.
Speaker 9: Well, look, if this genius had his way and set
Speaker 9: all the housing policies in this country, what would happen
Speaker 9: is there would be no new houses built, and so
Speaker 9: we would have the existing stock, and the existing stock
Speaker 9: would go into decay because no one would say it's
Speaker 9: just not worth me owning an investment property and renovating
Speaker 9: it and keeping it in good shape. So look, it's
Speaker 9: very sad that we can have people like this elected
Speaker 9: to council. The Australian voters neglect local council. It's very
Speaker 9: powerful little form of government, particularly for practical things like this.
Speaker 9: So yes, the people that voted for this guy have
Speaker 9: got some explaining to do it.
Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you, I think people don't even know
Speaker 2: who they're voting for with local council elections. They don't
Speaker 2: know what the policies are, which party.
Speaker 3: Affiliation they may or may not have.
Speaker 2: And I think that's how we get a lot of
Speaker 2: the counselors because people are obliged to vote, they're obliged
Speaker 2: to participate in this process or they're going to get fined,
Speaker 2: and they don't know what they're voting for. And as
Speaker 2: we covered last night, the number of rental properties in
Speaker 2: Victoria has fallen over ten thousand in just three months.
Speaker 2: Another reason why rents are going up now the coalition
Speaker 2: is announced they're behind a ban on social media accounts
Speaker 2: for youngsters. Peter dust And has announced that his party
Speaker 2: will raise the minimum age for social media platforms from
Speaker 2: thirteen to sixteen years of age within the first one
Speaker 2: hundred days of.
Speaker 3: A coalition government. John, what are your thoughts on this proposal.
Speaker 9: Well, I'm deeply disturbed by it. Peter Dutton's better better
Speaker 9: than Olbow, that's obvious, but I mean Peter Dutton's got
Speaker 9: an authoritarian streak in him. Now what now the two
Speaker 9: things that whenever, whenever the regulators want to increase the
Speaker 9: power of the state and shut down the power that
Speaker 9: the freedom of the Internet. They have two bogey mens,
Speaker 9: they say, terrorists and pedophiles, the two worst people and
Speaker 9: the two worst groups of people in the world. So
Speaker 9: they say, look, we need to regulate the internet to
Speaker 9: stop those two groups. Okay. Now, the reality is is
Speaker 9: this at the moment, Yes, you've got to be thirteen
Speaker 9: to open a Facebook account whatever it is. Okay, but
Speaker 9: the kids just say yeah, they take a butt, say yeah,
Speaker 9: I'm over thirteen. But what they're going to do by
Speaker 9: lifting it to the age of sixteen, you're going to
Speaker 9: need your digital ID, the good old digital ID brought
Speaker 9: into us by the due oply liberal and labor Okay,
Speaker 9: and so then you really are going to have to
Speaker 9: be over the age of sixtent Now that means that
Speaker 9: we're all subject to the government approving our access to
Speaker 9: the internet, and it means the government's going to be
Speaker 9: able to know what we're looking at on the Internet.
Speaker 9: So we're going to fight for Internet freedom and unfortunately
Speaker 9: Peter Dutton just does not get it.
Speaker 2: John Ruddick, I think it's an issue we're going to
Speaker 2: discuss some more in the weeks and months to come.
Speaker 3: Thank you so much for your time. This evening still
Speaker 3: to come.
Speaker 2: Harry and Meghan fear a Trump presidency and which Australian sporting.
Speaker 3: Superstar has lost millions on a real estate deal.
Speaker 2: You're watching the Reader Panny Show joining me now as
Speaker 2: Entertainment and Royal reporter Kinsey Schofield. Kinsey NBA player Ben
Speaker 2: Simmons has copped a big loss on his is a
Speaker 2: million dollar mansion. Multimillion dollar mansion in California. He bought
Speaker 2: his Hidden Hills house for twenty six point eight million
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 3: We're using Australian figas here.
Speaker 2: A year later he listed it for thirty four point
Speaker 2: eight million, that's US twenty three million.
Speaker 3: There was zero interest and his finally now.
Speaker 2: Completed the sale for eighteen point thirty million.
Speaker 3: Kinz. That's a loss of more.
Speaker 2: Than eight million dollars At a time when property prices
Speaker 2: are going up.
Speaker 3: How did he manage this.
Speaker 5: Well?
Speaker 11: I mean, I think we might delve into it more
Speaker 11: when we talk about Goldie Hahn and Kurt Russell. But
Speaker 11: I think that no one wants to live here. I mean,
Speaker 11: LA's pretty lax when it comes to crime. In twenty
Speaker 11: twenty two, we had three hundred and ninety seven murders.
Speaker 11: That was up almost twelve percent from the previous year,
Speaker 11: a fifty three percent increased pre pandemic. This year, violent
Speaker 11: crime is almost three percent compared to March twenty twenty five.
Speaker 11: Three robberies have increased nine point five Rita. It is
Speaker 11: so bad that the stores plaster large security images of
Speaker 11: their shoplifters on the storefront, so trying to humiliate and
Speaker 11: stop people from shoplifting. I mean, everybody's moving to Austin
Speaker 11: and Nashville, which I know I saw you visit some
Speaker 11: of those places recently over the over the last year.
Speaker 11: So I just think everybody is fleeing and no one
Speaker 11: wants to live here anymore.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 2: The La Times had an article four years ago about,
Speaker 2: oh this the numbers fleeing California. They're all the lower
Speaker 2: socioeconomic people. Rich people are actually moving to California, and
Speaker 2: then they ran a story four years later a few
Speaker 2: months ago saying, had the rich we're now fleeing California,
Speaker 2: and obviously the crime rate and the high state taxes
Speaker 2: would have a lot to do with that. Now now
Speaker 2: the Californian resident, Prince Harry is unraveling under the stress
Speaker 2: of all the court cases and family dramas he's been under.
Speaker 2: Sources told Heat magazine he's less able to remove himself
Speaker 2: from the situation than she is. She being Megan, as
Speaker 2: he's still clinging onto the hope of a family reconciliation
Speaker 2: that she feels isn't going to happen. It's much more
Speaker 2: painful for him because he's not been getting any proper
Speaker 2: updates on Kate or his dad. In her view, it
Speaker 2: would be a terrible idea to take another trip to
Speaker 2: the UK right now. He needs a summer of healing
Speaker 2: and non confrontation. The magazine is also saying that Harry
Speaker 2: and Meghan have plans to leave America Kinsey if Trump
Speaker 2: is reelected, with an insider saying if Trump does win,
Speaker 2: they fear he's going to cause trouble for a lot
Speaker 2: of people, not just them, but they presume that'd be
Speaker 2: high targets because he's been pretty open about his disdain
Speaker 2: for them. If he's in charge and pulling the strings
Speaker 2: with immigration, it's safe to say he'll do his best
Speaker 2: to make life as hard as possible for both of them.
Speaker 2: They fear it would be a disaster for democracy, and
Speaker 2: on a personal level, they have to leave America.
Speaker 3: That sounds like a campaign ad for Trump.
Speaker 2: Kinsey, I don't know if that's going to scare too
Speaker 2: many people off voting for Donald Trump.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, Miiley Cyrus told us the same thing,
Speaker 11: and she's living pretty comfortably still in the United States.
Speaker 11: My favorite line this came from Heat magazine was the
Speaker 11: Duke of Sussex is being urged by his wife to
Speaker 11: take a break, take a break from what his bond
Speaker 11: want do. Yeah, exactly what does he do? And they
Speaker 11: said it's hard. It's hard for her to see him
Speaker 11: clinging to the walls or climbing the walls.
Speaker 3: The way he's been doing.
Speaker 11: And she wants them to take a break from all
Speaker 11: the toxicity, which is wild because somebody might want to
Speaker 11: tell her that she is the toxicity.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 2: Absolutely, I laughed when I read that line about he.
Speaker 3: Needs to take a break.
Speaker 2: These two are the most underemployed millionaires in Hollywood day.
Speaker 2: You really do wonder what they do to fill their days,
Speaker 2: because other than venting in the media every now and
Speaker 2: then about how horrible everyone is to them. What's happening
Speaker 2: with her lifestyle website that was about to take off
Speaker 2: and then we've stopped hearing about it?
Speaker 11: Or her podcast Lemonada announcing her podcast that she was
Speaker 11: going to relaunch a podcast. We've got American Revie Orchard.
Speaker 11: Nothing tangible on the website. Yet what happened to meet
Speaker 11: me at the Lake is that in production with Netflix.
Speaker 11: Is Megan still doing her cooking show? No recent shooting
Speaker 11: for Harry's Polo show. It all seems very up in
Speaker 11: the air. So maybe they are literally taking a break, reader,
Speaker 11: because where are they?
Speaker 6: What are they doing.
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 2: Former Neighbors star Holly Villance has been very outspoken in
Speaker 2: her support for Nigel Farage and now she's an Her
Speaker 2: billionaire husband have held a fundraiser for Donald Trump at
Speaker 2: the Chelsea Mansion in London.
Speaker 3: They were charging up to forty.
Speaker 2: Thousand dollars per person to attend an evening with that
Speaker 2: Donald Trump Junior you can see there and Kinsey we
Speaker 2: hear Holly herself gave a speech along with Donald Junior.
Speaker 3: She is getting rather political, isn't she?
Speaker 11: Oh, she absolutely is. She said she would campaign for
Speaker 11: Farage if he needed her help. And it was actually
Speaker 11: Farage that took her tomorrow Lago where they spent over
Speaker 11: an hour with President Trump, and she said she couldn't
Speaker 11: believe how interested he was in them and their lives
Speaker 11: and how many questions he asked. She said he was
Speaker 11: just so curious and not as tough as she expected
Speaker 11: him to be, so she was pleasantly surprised by him.
Speaker 11: But I think that she really does believe in the
Speaker 11: Trump campaign along with the Farage campaign, and she said
Speaker 11: she endorses Trump because she believes if America is strong,
Speaker 11: the UK will be strong, and the world will be strong.
Speaker 2: Discofild, thank you so much for your time this evening,
Speaker 2: and that's it from me.
Speaker 3: Tonight.
Speaker 2: Up next is Newsnight, Don't forget Left is Losing It
Speaker 2: tomorrow at.
Speaker 3: Nine point thirty pm. Goodnight,
