WEBVTT - Danica De Giorgio | 22 February

0:00:01.600 --> 0:00:04.760
<v Speaker 1>Live on Sky News Australia.

0:00:04.960 --> 0:00:07.320
<v Speaker 2>This is Denika to Georgio.

0:00:09.240 --> 0:00:12.080
<v Speaker 3>Hello Andrew, Welcome to the program coming up tonight, Vale

0:00:12.119 --> 0:00:16.480
<v Speaker 3>of Secrecy Labor reportedly involved in meetings dating back months

0:00:16.600 --> 0:00:20.080
<v Speaker 3>to repatriate the ISIS brides. Wait until you hear Tony

0:00:20.079 --> 0:00:23.840
<v Speaker 3>Burke's latest spin. I'll unpack this and the PM's denials

0:00:23.880 --> 0:00:27.639
<v Speaker 3>that mass immigration is an issue with liberal Tony Pasen.

0:00:28.240 --> 0:00:31.320
<v Speaker 3>The King further embroiled in the Andrew saga as calls

0:00:31.360 --> 0:00:34.520
<v Speaker 3>grow for Australia to become a republic in the wake

0:00:34.600 --> 0:00:37.880
<v Speaker 3>of the former Prince's arrest and Donald Trump slaps a

0:00:37.960 --> 0:00:40.680
<v Speaker 3>fifteen percent tariff on the world.

0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:42.160
<v Speaker 4>What does this mean for US?

0:00:42.240 --> 0:00:46.559
<v Speaker 3>Economist Leith van Onslin will explain, but first tonight, A

0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:49.440
<v Speaker 3>lot has been said this week about Pauline Hanson, the.

0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:52.680
<v Speaker 4>Left having a field day, calling her racist and so on.

0:00:53.400 --> 0:00:57.160
<v Speaker 3>Now, whatever you think about the comments she made on

0:00:57.200 --> 0:01:00.320
<v Speaker 3>this channel last week, one thing about the One Nation

0:01:00.440 --> 0:01:04.319
<v Speaker 3>leader is her consistency on issues like mass migration and

0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:08.679
<v Speaker 3>migrants respecting our values. Yet the left want to cancel

0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:13.400
<v Speaker 3>her case in point Senator Fatima Payment now have a

0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:16.440
<v Speaker 3>listen to her comments about Pauline Hanson last night.

0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:20.080
<v Speaker 5>Our Pauline Hanson that if she doesn't like Hawthens are

0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:23.880
<v Speaker 5>here in Australia, then she can really pack her bags

0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:26.639
<v Speaker 5>and go to the US and continue being best buds

0:01:26.680 --> 0:01:27.160
<v Speaker 5>with Trump.

0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:30.360
<v Speaker 3>Now, this is where Fatima and the left in general

0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:33.240
<v Speaker 3>have got it all wrong. Right now, in my view,

0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:37.880
<v Speaker 3>multiculturalism has failed in this country. It wasn't always this way,

0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:41.160
<v Speaker 3>and I'm pro migration. I'm the granddaughter of migrants, but

0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:43.959
<v Speaker 3>in my view it has to be tightly controlled with

0:01:44.120 --> 0:01:48.720
<v Speaker 3>strict checks and balances and restrictions from terrorist hotspots. But

0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:51.240
<v Speaker 3>the problem right now is when the door is left

0:01:51.280 --> 0:01:55.040
<v Speaker 3>open to people whose values are incompatible with ours, the

0:01:55.160 --> 0:02:00.559
<v Speaker 3>multiculturalism experiment fails. A harmonious society of cultures is a myth,

0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:03.680
<v Speaker 3>and I'm not talking about all cultures. I'm talking about

0:02:03.680 --> 0:02:06.120
<v Speaker 3>those who do not fit in with a Western democracy.

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:08.200
<v Speaker 4>Not all cultures are.

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:11.600
<v Speaker 3>Created equal, and I could list countless examples of where

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:17.520
<v Speaker 3>multiculturalism has failed. Hate preachers, weekly anti Israel protests, rye

0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:21.840
<v Speaker 3>anti Semitism, chance of globalized the Intofada, flags of terror

0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:25.640
<v Speaker 3>groups being waived, Jewish flags set a light, our national

0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:29.640
<v Speaker 3>monuments hijacked, and of course acts of terror. So what

0:02:29.800 --> 0:02:33.959
<v Speaker 3>on earth is fatima payment a migrant to this country

0:02:34.400 --> 0:02:38.799
<v Speaker 3>lecturing on this is how we do it in Australia. Well,

0:02:38.840 --> 0:02:42.240
<v Speaker 3>how we do it in Australia is we respect our values.

0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:46.679
<v Speaker 3>Immigrants come into this country to do it how we

0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:50.799
<v Speaker 3>do it, not the other way around. But unfortunately there

0:02:50.800 --> 0:02:54.000
<v Speaker 3>are some who have come here not to be Australian.

0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:58.240
<v Speaker 3>Yet fatima payment from Afghanistan, our country where women are

0:02:58.240 --> 0:03:02.280
<v Speaker 3>treated like dirt, is telling an Australian born woman to

0:03:02.360 --> 0:03:03.160
<v Speaker 3>leave the country.

0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:04.639
<v Speaker 4>Seriously.

0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:07.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean this is the same fadom of Payment who

0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:10.680
<v Speaker 3>claimed Iran was an incredible place for women. And the

0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 3>thing is the left's narrative on migration right now is

0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:18.320
<v Speaker 3>in disarray. They're so desperate they actually want to lock

0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:22.560
<v Speaker 3>up Pauline Hanson again. The AFP has reportedly received reports

0:03:22.560 --> 0:03:26.520
<v Speaker 3>of crime over her comments about Muslims. Now, are we

0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:29.440
<v Speaker 3>about to witness the first test of Labour's hate speech laws?

0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:31.600
<v Speaker 4>What is a threshold? We don't know.

0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:34.640
<v Speaker 3>What does it mean for free speech? We don't know

0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:38.560
<v Speaker 3>Pauline Hanson's comments about Muslims. In my view, we're wrong.

0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:41.600
<v Speaker 3>The majority of Muslims live peacefully in this country and

0:03:41.640 --> 0:03:44.360
<v Speaker 3>it does take the focus off radical Islam, which is at.

0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:47.440
<v Speaker 4>The heart of the problem. But if Pauline Hanson.

0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:50.360
<v Speaker 3>Is about to be investigated, then we have blasphemy laws

0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:53.360
<v Speaker 3>on our hands and I'm concerned that we are going

0:03:53.440 --> 0:03:56.119
<v Speaker 3>the way of the UK, where people are being arrested

0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.080
<v Speaker 3>for saying things that the government does not like. The

0:03:59.120 --> 0:04:02.160
<v Speaker 3>PM was duck and weaving today on this on Sky News.

0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:07.960
<v Speaker 6>There's a separation here. Politicians were responsible for putting laws

0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:11.360
<v Speaker 6>in place. It's important that the authorities, who I have

0:04:11.480 --> 0:04:15.080
<v Speaker 6>confidence in be allowed to do their job. I'm not

0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:20.480
<v Speaker 6>a lawyer, nor am I in charge of fulfilling those laws.

0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:25.000
<v Speaker 6>I'll allow the appropriate authorities to engage.

0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:27.000
<v Speaker 4>Well, it was always going to be the problem.

0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:30.920
<v Speaker 3>There's no threshold, and in a time when Australia has changed,

0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:34.960
<v Speaker 3>particularly after October seven and even more since Bondai, the

0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:37.599
<v Speaker 3>two big parties have not caught up, and the common

0:04:37.600 --> 0:04:42.000
<v Speaker 3>denominator is mass migration. The Prime Minister was in full

0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:45.479
<v Speaker 3>gas light mode today claiming that there's no problem with

0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:47.359
<v Speaker 3>immigration from Islamic countries.

0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:53.240
<v Speaker 6>The Australian covenant is that if people have any prejudice

0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:56.520
<v Speaker 6>or hatred, it's left at the customs Hall when they

0:04:56.640 --> 0:05:01.760
<v Speaker 6>arrive in Australia, and overwhelmingly Astralians show respect to each other.

0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:08.080
<v Speaker 6>Overwhelmingly Australians, regardless of which, what their faith is, who

0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:11.760
<v Speaker 6>they are, what their background is, we overwhelmingly live in

0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:13.400
<v Speaker 6>harmony in this country.

0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:17.599
<v Speaker 3>The problem is people who do not leave their hate

0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:20.320
<v Speaker 3>at the customs hall. Now, labour's led in more than

0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:22.400
<v Speaker 3>three thousand gardens with little to.

0:05:22.360 --> 0:05:23.440
<v Speaker 4>No security checks.

0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:28.280
<v Speaker 3>The majority of Gazans supported the October seven massacre it's

0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:31.640
<v Speaker 3>led in isis Brides. And that's not including this latest

0:05:31.720 --> 0:05:33.320
<v Speaker 3>cohort that could be headed our way.

0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:37.120
<v Speaker 4>And now the daughter of a sanctioned Iranian.

0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:39.640
<v Speaker 3>Military leader who acted as an advisor to the Ayatola

0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:42.880
<v Speaker 3>and has been accused of involvement in Tehran's nuclear and

0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:48.279
<v Speaker 3>ballistic missile programs was granted permanent residency. And that's despite

0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:52.279
<v Speaker 3>consistent warnings to the Albanese government. Yet the PM is

0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:53.960
<v Speaker 3>claiming that all is above board.

0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:57.640
<v Speaker 7>Do you think there are some countries where we could

0:05:57.720 --> 0:06:02.240
<v Speaker 7>take less people or consider checks as it appears the

0:06:02.279 --> 0:06:04.000
<v Speaker 7>oppositions consider type checks.

0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:09.600
<v Speaker 6>Andrew, this is something that politicians shouldn't be allowed to

0:06:09.640 --> 0:06:11.800
<v Speaker 6>say things that they know isn't true.

0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:15.479
<v Speaker 4>They know I agree with you on that that we have.

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:18.720
<v Speaker 6>Well you need to hold them to account, Andrew, because

0:06:18.800 --> 0:06:22.560
<v Speaker 6>they know full well that we have checks on migration

0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:24.040
<v Speaker 6>in this country.

0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:27.440
<v Speaker 3>Well, clearly that's not the case. I mean I just

0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:30.799
<v Speaker 3>mentioned the Gazans and the PMS treating us like fools

0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:33.240
<v Speaker 3>so he can yet again pander to the Muslim vote.

0:06:33.760 --> 0:06:34.880
<v Speaker 4>So it's little wonder One.

0:06:34.800 --> 0:06:37.359
<v Speaker 3>Nation is now leading in the polls outpolling Labor and

0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:39.880
<v Speaker 3>the Liberal Party in Victoria. Have a look at this.

0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:42.840
<v Speaker 3>This is voting intentions. This is the first time it's

0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:46.400
<v Speaker 3>topped a poll across the country and in Victoria, of

0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:50.280
<v Speaker 3>all states, a Labor held Union stronghold, and it means

0:06:50.360 --> 0:06:52.680
<v Speaker 3>if an election were to be held today, it would

0:06:52.720 --> 0:06:54.919
<v Speaker 3>be a hung parliament there. And have a look at

0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:57.359
<v Speaker 3>this poll in today's Dally Telegraph. In terms of a

0:06:57.480 --> 0:07:01.039
<v Speaker 3>three party preferred measure which tracks can heeatitiveness between the

0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:05.240
<v Speaker 3>Coalition and One Nation, the opposition leader Angus Taylor has

0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:08.080
<v Speaker 3>a mountain to climb to claw back support to One Nation.

0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:11.200
<v Speaker 3>Labors well ahead on forty four percent One Nation on

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:14.280
<v Speaker 3>twenty nine. That's two points ahead of the Coalition on

0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:18.160
<v Speaker 3>twenty seven. Senator Hanson is viewed more positively than both

0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:21.920
<v Speaker 3>Angus Taylor and Anthony Albanesi. And the One Nation's leader

0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:24.680
<v Speaker 3>net approval rating is at plus nine, so that's ahead

0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:26.920
<v Speaker 3>of the opposition leader on plus three and if you

0:07:26.920 --> 0:07:30.040
<v Speaker 3>look at the Prime Minister, he's down fifteen on his

0:07:30.160 --> 0:07:32.800
<v Speaker 3>net approval. So there's certainly a lot of work to

0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:35.040
<v Speaker 3>do to claw back those two million votes from One

0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:37.440
<v Speaker 3>Nation And I really do think the Coalition has a

0:07:37.440 --> 0:07:39.960
<v Speaker 3>real chance to get it right when it comes to

0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:44.000
<v Speaker 3>immigration policy, and under a conservative leader in Angus Taylor,

0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:46.920
<v Speaker 3>they may just get there. But as I said, Australia

0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:49.480
<v Speaker 3>has changed the mass migration myth.

0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:51.520
<v Speaker 4>It doesn't bode well anymore.

0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:57.120
<v Speaker 3>It's time to face up to the facts.

0:07:57.680 --> 0:07:59.400
<v Speaker 4>Now I mentioned there the Isis brides.

0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:02.920
<v Speaker 3>Much longer can Labour keep up the denials and the

0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:06.640
<v Speaker 3>facade that it has nothing to do with the repatriation

0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:10.200
<v Speaker 3>of these women. The Daily Telegraph has revealed that high

0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:13.520
<v Speaker 3>level briefings between the Federal government and New South Wales

0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:17.400
<v Speaker 3>agencies to repatriate the Isis brides have been going on

0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:23.360
<v Speaker 3>for months keyword there months. So the plans for the

0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:27.240
<v Speaker 3>cohort's return were far more advanced than what the Prime

0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:31.280
<v Speaker 3>Minister and Labor has been telling you this week they

0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:34.120
<v Speaker 3>are not receiving assistants to return to Australia and the

0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:35.920
<v Speaker 3>Australian Government will not assist them.

0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:39.000
<v Speaker 4>They made a choice to go to Syria. We won't

0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:41.840
<v Speaker 4>be repatriating them from Syria.

0:08:42.040 --> 0:08:47.600
<v Speaker 6>The government is providing no support for the repatriation of

0:08:48.240 --> 0:08:49.160
<v Speaker 6>these people.

0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:54.160
<v Speaker 3>Labour's known from the very beginning. A senior federal government

0:08:54.240 --> 0:08:57.160
<v Speaker 3>source told The Telegraph. I became aware of the meetings

0:08:57.160 --> 0:09:01.040
<v Speaker 3>in September and they have been primarily focused on reintegration

0:09:01.200 --> 0:09:04.720
<v Speaker 3>support and services such as specialist health and trauma care

0:09:04.720 --> 0:09:05.720
<v Speaker 3>for women and children.

0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:07.880
<v Speaker 4>There were also briefings.

0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:11.080
<v Speaker 3>On the management of ongoing risk assessments and monitoring for

0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:14.280
<v Speaker 3>these people in the community. This is why the government's

0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:16.960
<v Speaker 3>lack of transparency on this issue in the past week

0:09:17.000 --> 0:09:21.560
<v Speaker 3>has been completely unethical. They did know the group were

0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:28.360
<v Speaker 3>returning imminently. Look this absolutely squanders the suggestions by the

0:09:28.400 --> 0:09:32.080
<v Speaker 3>Prime Minister and Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke that Labor

0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:36.120
<v Speaker 3>had no involvement. And don't forget the revelations that two

0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:38.960
<v Speaker 3>women inside the ouroach camp. This is where the group

0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:42.400
<v Speaker 3>is staying in Syria, said via an encrypted messaging app

0:09:42.520 --> 0:09:45.880
<v Speaker 3>that eleven Australian women and twenty three children were told

0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:49.120
<v Speaker 3>in late January that they were quote likely to be

0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:52.720
<v Speaker 3>returning home. Both sources in the camp also confirmed the

0:09:52.720 --> 0:09:59.320
<v Speaker 3>women were being assisted by an Australian government delegate. So

0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:02.040
<v Speaker 3>where is the transparency from the minister?

0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:05.319
<v Speaker 8>Are you actively trying to stop them coming back?

0:10:05.320 --> 0:10:05.480
<v Speaker 9>Then?

0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:08.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh, we don't want them to come.

0:10:08.200 --> 0:10:10.120
<v Speaker 8>Back, but are you actively trying to stop them?

0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:13.640
<v Speaker 2>We're actively making sure we do nothing to help them,

0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:15.520
<v Speaker 2>nothing to help them at all.

0:10:16.360 --> 0:10:20.840
<v Speaker 3>Look, this is a disgrace, this is a scandal. Okay,

0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:23.640
<v Speaker 3>these are not all innocent women. Most left this great

0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:26.520
<v Speaker 3>country to join the death cult willingly, and now that

0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:30.400
<v Speaker 3>the jihadi romance hasn't quite gone to plan, they want

0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:33.520
<v Speaker 3>to come back here and live a peaceful life. And

0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:37.560
<v Speaker 3>Labour's first instinct is to help them out. Now what

0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:40.600
<v Speaker 3>does that tell you about how once again Muslim votes

0:10:40.679 --> 0:10:45.400
<v Speaker 3>are being put before safety and values. And only one

0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:48.280
<v Speaker 3>of this cohort has been given an exclusion order so far,

0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:51.480
<v Speaker 3>why not the rest of them? Well, if you ask

0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:52.960
<v Speaker 3>the Home Affairs Minister.

0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:57.360
<v Speaker 2>We know the different individuals, We.

0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:00.760
<v Speaker 3>Know them well, g to, I know a lot of

0:11:00.760 --> 0:11:03.400
<v Speaker 3>people too, but none of whom have gone overseas to

0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:06.600
<v Speaker 3>join a terror group, and none of them have even

0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:09.719
<v Speaker 3>had formal interviews from security authorities.

0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:14.040
<v Speaker 8>Why can't they go and interview them? I mean, from

0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:16.400
<v Speaker 8>what you're saying, it sounds like they're monitoring their communications

0:11:16.480 --> 0:11:19.120
<v Speaker 8>and collecting what information they can. Wouldn't it be better

0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:20.960
<v Speaker 8>to sit down with each of them before giving them

0:11:20.960 --> 0:11:22.000
<v Speaker 8>a passport to come home?

0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:25.200
<v Speaker 2>Or at the moment we're not sending officials in there?

0:11:25.320 --> 0:11:28.120
<v Speaker 8>Why not? Because if there's a risk of them coming back,

0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:29.920
<v Speaker 8>and they do pose any sort of risk, wouldn't it

0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:30.720
<v Speaker 8>be better to send.

0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:33.320
<v Speaker 2>A I think I've just gone through the extent to

0:11:33.360 --> 0:11:36.439
<v Speaker 2>which we have knowledge of these individuals, knowledge.

0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:38.440
<v Speaker 8>But interviewing them, Like, why not interview them?

0:11:38.600 --> 0:11:41.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, we had people there on the ground earlier, we

0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:45.079
<v Speaker 2>have continued to track these individuals the whole way through.

0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:48.120
<v Speaker 3>It doesn't fill you with a lot of hope when

0:11:48.120 --> 0:11:51.319
<v Speaker 3>they haven't even been interviewed. My colleague Sharry marks And

0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:54.599
<v Speaker 3>reported last week that the last time interviews were conducted

0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:58.040
<v Speaker 3>with the ISIS cohort of thirty four individuals was back

0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:02.120
<v Speaker 3>in twenty twenty two, and that was confirmed by Burke

0:12:02.160 --> 0:12:05.640
<v Speaker 3>this morning when asked why he's so confident that they

0:12:05.640 --> 0:12:06.640
<v Speaker 3>don't pose a threat.

0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:12.920
<v Speaker 2>They are not a coherent cohort. The cohort is not consistent.

0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:17.400
<v Speaker 2>There are very different people within that cohort, with different

0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:21.120
<v Speaker 2>histories and different states of mind. If I put it

0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:24.079
<v Speaker 2>in those terms, they are quite different.

0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:27.840
<v Speaker 3>I could not give a toss about the women's history,

0:12:28.080 --> 0:12:30.520
<v Speaker 3>nor could I care about their state of mind. That

0:12:30.720 --> 0:12:34.720
<v Speaker 3>is not the threshold for minimum level security in this country.

0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:36.480
<v Speaker 4>Are we seriously.

0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:39.160
<v Speaker 3>Basing it off the level of coherency of a person?

0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:42.680
<v Speaker 3>And the Opposition has again raised concerns.

0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:46.280
<v Speaker 10>These are people who left our country, a prosperous, peaceful,

0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:48.560
<v Speaker 10>liberal democracy to go and join.

0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Isis that every one of.

0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:52.360
<v Speaker 10>Them should face charges if they ever find their way

0:12:52.400 --> 0:12:54.720
<v Speaker 10>back home, But frankly, the priority should be keeping them.

0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:56.760
<v Speaker 2>Offshore where they can do no harm to.

0:12:56.720 --> 0:12:59.559
<v Speaker 4>Australia and labours handed them passports.

0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:03.079
<v Speaker 3>Sure might be citizens, but the Passport Act is very clear.

0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:06.320
<v Speaker 3>It says a passport can be denied if someone might

0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:11.160
<v Speaker 3>prejudice the security of Australia. Now, surely these women meet

0:13:11.160 --> 0:13:16.280
<v Speaker 3>that threshold of the eleven Nazarene's Zaha brother claims that

0:13:16.320 --> 0:13:20.600
<v Speaker 3>she unknowingly went to Syria, but still married an ISIS

0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:24.679
<v Speaker 3>fighter who was later sentenced to death. Samaya Zahab, whose

0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:27.719
<v Speaker 3>brother joined ISIS and was killed in an airstrike, He

0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:30.640
<v Speaker 3>was believed to have encouraged several relatives to follow him

0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:34.600
<v Speaker 3>to Syria. Then there's Kirsty ross Emily, whose Moroccan born

0:13:34.679 --> 0:13:39.839
<v Speaker 3>husband was stripped of his Australian citizenship. And Zara Ahmad,

0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:43.760
<v Speaker 3>who told the ABC that once male relatives align themselves

0:13:43.760 --> 0:13:47.280
<v Speaker 3>with Islamic state, the women felt compelled to follow. She

0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:51.720
<v Speaker 3>married a terror recruiter as well. Now it's not about

0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:55.480
<v Speaker 3>their circumstances, it's about who we are bringing in. Tony

0:13:55.520 --> 0:13:58.760
<v Speaker 3>Burke has denied the Daily Telegraphs report that Labor has

0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:01.520
<v Speaker 3>been involved in conduct repatriation efforts.

0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:03.400
<v Speaker 4>Well, if that's the case.

0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:07.280
<v Speaker 3>Labor has to come clean about what it knew, when

0:14:07.320 --> 0:14:10.880
<v Speaker 3>it knew, and what it has been up to behind

0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:16.120
<v Speaker 3>the scenes to help out and key why, I mean,

0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:18.640
<v Speaker 3>after everything that's happened in this country, after the largest

0:14:18.720 --> 0:14:22.120
<v Speaker 3>terror attack on home soil, a little girl among those.

0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:24.720
<v Speaker 4>Murdered, Labor just doesn't get it.

0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:27.840
<v Speaker 3>So good luck trying to convince me that bringing ISIS

0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:34.520
<v Speaker 3>brides back home is a great idea. Let's bring in

0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:37.280
<v Speaker 3>liberal MP now Tony Passon, Tony good to catch up.

0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:39.640
<v Speaker 3>As always, thanks for joining me. Firstly, I just want

0:14:39.640 --> 0:14:42.680
<v Speaker 3>to get your reaction to these revelations that Labor briefed

0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:46.040
<v Speaker 3>state agencies on the return of Isis brides and how

0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:48.720
<v Speaker 3>contradictory is it to what we've been hearing from Labor

0:14:48.760 --> 0:14:49.280
<v Speaker 3>all week.

0:14:50.840 --> 0:14:53.680
<v Speaker 10>Well, the Naker, like you, I think it's scandalous and

0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:56.240
<v Speaker 10>I think this story has a lot further to run.

0:14:57.360 --> 0:14:59.600
<v Speaker 10>What we're now seeing is Labour trying to talk out

0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:03.560
<v Speaker 10>of both sides. It's for its mouth on this issue.

0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:07.200
<v Speaker 10>At the as kind as I can be, we've got

0:15:07.200 --> 0:15:10.600
<v Speaker 10>a government that's currently indifferent about the return of these

0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:13.760
<v Speaker 10>Arsist brides. I don't want a government that's indifferent about

0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:17.240
<v Speaker 10>their return. I want a government using every single power

0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:21.520
<v Speaker 10>at its disposal to ensure these women who left this

0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:26.240
<v Speaker 10>country to join jihad don't come back. They can use

0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:31.120
<v Speaker 10>the Passports Act, but quite frankly, every single arm of

0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:34.600
<v Speaker 10>government should be focused on ensuring Australians are kept safe,

0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:37.800
<v Speaker 10>and part of that is for these individuals never to

0:15:37.880 --> 0:15:40.400
<v Speaker 10>return home or thirty four of them.

0:15:40.600 --> 0:15:42.400
<v Speaker 4>Absolutely, I couldn't agree more.

0:15:42.440 --> 0:15:45.400
<v Speaker 3>And the other thing is Tony Burke admitted today that

0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:48.320
<v Speaker 3>they have not been interviewed since twenty twenty two and

0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:50.960
<v Speaker 3>that security officials won't be going back there to interview them.

0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:53.960
<v Speaker 4>I mean, it doesn't really fill you with any hope,

0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:54.520
<v Speaker 4>does it.

0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:58.440
<v Speaker 10>Well, that's my point. If you were genuine in your

0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:01.800
<v Speaker 10>desire to ensure these viduals don't return, you would send

0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:06.080
<v Speaker 10>officials to go and interview these women and get as

0:16:06.200 --> 0:16:09.760
<v Speaker 10>much detail and information as we can to ensure that

0:16:10.400 --> 0:16:13.800
<v Speaker 10>were they to return. Noting that we are doing I

0:16:13.840 --> 0:16:16.240
<v Speaker 10>would hope we're doing this to ensure they can't. But

0:16:16.280 --> 0:16:19.760
<v Speaker 10>were they to return, that they face the full force

0:16:19.920 --> 0:16:22.320
<v Speaker 10>of the law. I mean that's a classic example of

0:16:22.360 --> 0:16:25.480
<v Speaker 10>this indifference. It's like all k and no responsibility. Oh well,

0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:28.440
<v Speaker 10>if they come home, that's fine, we'll deal with them then.

0:16:28.560 --> 0:16:32.280
<v Speaker 10>I mean that is the reason why more and more

0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:36.000
<v Speaker 10>Australians have a losing faith in this government and its

0:16:36.040 --> 0:16:37.480
<v Speaker 10>decision making. Yeah.

0:16:37.520 --> 0:16:41.160
<v Speaker 3>Look absolutely, and in the end, they left here willingly.

0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:43.360
<v Speaker 3>They knew what they were doing when they left this

0:16:43.440 --> 0:16:45.560
<v Speaker 3>great country to go and join that death cult. So

0:16:46.040 --> 0:16:48.960
<v Speaker 3>you can't convince me that this is a wonderful idea

0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:49.760
<v Speaker 3>to bring.

0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:50.280
<v Speaker 4>These women back.

0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:54.120
<v Speaker 3>I've got no sympathy for any of them I mentioned

0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:56.800
<v Speaker 3>just before as well. The Prime Minister has also downplayed

0:16:57.160 --> 0:17:01.560
<v Speaker 3>immigration concerns, especially from Islamic country. Now, I personally think

0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:04.880
<v Speaker 3>Tony that immigration is an acute voat driving issue. I mean,

0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:07.280
<v Speaker 3>Labour's letting more than one point one million migrants into

0:17:07.280 --> 0:17:09.879
<v Speaker 3>the country. It's not also about how many, it's about

0:17:09.920 --> 0:17:13.320
<v Speaker 3>where they're from. We've seen three thousand gardens come here

0:17:13.359 --> 0:17:17.360
<v Speaker 3>with little to security checks. But why do you think

0:17:17.400 --> 0:17:19.840
<v Speaker 3>that the Prime Minister is so desperate to play down

0:17:20.160 --> 0:17:22.680
<v Speaker 3>the immigration concerns.

0:17:22.840 --> 0:17:25.480
<v Speaker 10>Well because of his track record. I mean the reality

0:17:25.600 --> 0:17:29.960
<v Speaker 10>is on his watch we've seen record levels of migration

0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:32.560
<v Speaker 10>and I've got to say if he's downplaying the sentiment

0:17:32.880 --> 0:17:37.640
<v Speaker 10>that he's out there in community, more for him. Janiki,

0:17:37.640 --> 0:17:42.520
<v Speaker 10>your grandparents, by parents came to this country. They came

0:17:42.560 --> 0:17:47.159
<v Speaker 10>to make a contribution. They came to join Team Australia,

0:17:47.240 --> 0:17:50.760
<v Speaker 10>not checking the Hotel Australia. They share our values and

0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:54.879
<v Speaker 10>wanted to be part of this great country. And the

0:17:54.920 --> 0:17:58.200
<v Speaker 10>reality is there is a whole cohort of people who

0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:01.200
<v Speaker 10>are coming to this country who now don't share those

0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:04.920
<v Speaker 10>values and we need to ensure we have appropriate mechanisms

0:18:04.920 --> 0:18:08.240
<v Speaker 10>in place that such that people that do come to

0:18:08.240 --> 0:18:11.240
<v Speaker 10>this country understand that it is a great privilege. I mean,

0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:14.879
<v Speaker 10>Australian citizenship in my view, is the golden ticket and

0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:19.600
<v Speaker 10>we shouldn't just be giving it out. Willy Nearly Having

0:18:19.640 --> 0:18:23.920
<v Speaker 10>said that, Prime Minister needs to understand that the best

0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:27.600
<v Speaker 10>I think retail politician in the country right now, Peter Malenawskis,

0:18:27.680 --> 0:18:31.600
<v Speaker 10>understands the concern people have around this issue and he's

0:18:31.640 --> 0:18:34.560
<v Speaker 10>making it very clear that he's speaking directly to One

0:18:34.680 --> 0:18:38.320
<v Speaker 10>Nation voters because he's worried about the rise in sentiment

0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:40.320
<v Speaker 10>and support for that political party.

0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:42.040
<v Speaker 3>Well, I do actually want to ask you a question

0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:44.840
<v Speaker 3>on one Nation, but just back to migration, and you

0:18:44.880 --> 0:18:47.240
<v Speaker 3>do have a point on that. Earlier in the week

0:18:47.320 --> 0:18:51.600
<v Speaker 3>we saw a Susan Lee drafted up policy that she

0:18:51.760 --> 0:18:54.480
<v Speaker 3>was apparently got a release but never did, and had

0:18:54.720 --> 0:18:57.760
<v Speaker 3>restrictions on a certain amount of countries or people coming

0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:02.040
<v Speaker 3>from parts of countries, particularly terrorism hotspots.

0:19:02.480 --> 0:19:04.760
<v Speaker 4>Would you support.

0:19:04.240 --> 0:19:10.480
<v Speaker 3>A proposal like that, so a ban on certain regions.

0:19:10.480 --> 0:19:13.000
<v Speaker 10>Janeka, I don't think this should be based on geography.

0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:16.439
<v Speaker 10>I think this should be based on values. Now, of course,

0:19:16.480 --> 0:19:20.280
<v Speaker 10>I think when individuals are coming from particular hotspots, I

0:19:20.280 --> 0:19:23.719
<v Speaker 10>think you nearly really need to ramp up the checking

0:19:23.800 --> 0:19:26.200
<v Speaker 10>to ensure that people who are coming to this country

0:19:26.440 --> 0:19:29.679
<v Speaker 10>share our values. They for example, respect the rule of

0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:36.160
<v Speaker 10>law and are prepared to buy into Western civilization if

0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:40.040
<v Speaker 10>you like. But geography I don't think should be the test.

0:19:40.080 --> 0:19:42.680
<v Speaker 10>I think it should be values. People coming with the

0:19:42.760 --> 0:19:46.879
<v Speaker 10>right attitude, the right aptitude. I'm open to the idea

0:19:46.920 --> 0:19:51.159
<v Speaker 10>that we might have waiting periods that give us the

0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:54.679
<v Speaker 10>opportunity to make those assessments. And of course anyone who

0:19:54.760 --> 0:19:58.080
<v Speaker 10>doesn't meet the requisite standard they can check out of

0:19:58.520 --> 0:20:01.760
<v Speaker 10>Hotel Australia as soon as we can make that happen.

0:20:01.880 --> 0:20:04.040
<v Speaker 4>But how do you test for that? How can you

0:20:04.680 --> 0:20:06.280
<v Speaker 4>really judge a person's values?

0:20:07.400 --> 0:20:10.080
<v Speaker 10>Well, this is something that we'll need to work through

0:20:10.080 --> 0:20:13.040
<v Speaker 10>the detail of Jamaka, because this is an important element

0:20:13.080 --> 0:20:17.479
<v Speaker 10>of where as I understand it, Angus Taylor wants to

0:20:17.560 --> 0:20:20.399
<v Speaker 10>take us. But like I said, I'm not suggesting that

0:20:20.480 --> 0:20:24.439
<v Speaker 10>geography is irrelevant. Obviously, where there are these hotspots, there

0:20:24.440 --> 0:20:28.520
<v Speaker 10>will need to be a greater degree of scrutiny. But

0:20:29.160 --> 0:20:33.200
<v Speaker 10>I really do think you can't simply tar one geographical

0:20:33.280 --> 0:20:37.560
<v Speaker 10>area completely with the one brush. I mean, that's not

0:20:38.160 --> 0:20:40.560
<v Speaker 10>a values based system, and we need to ensure that

0:20:40.560 --> 0:20:44.640
<v Speaker 10>we're operating a values based system because I think the

0:20:44.800 --> 0:20:46.680
<v Speaker 10>mistake that's been made in the past is we've allowed

0:20:46.720 --> 0:20:48.760
<v Speaker 10>people come to this country who don't share our values,

0:20:48.760 --> 0:20:52.359
<v Speaker 10>who don't want to buy in, who don't understand that

0:20:52.480 --> 0:20:55.199
<v Speaker 10>the quid pro quo here is you come to make

0:20:55.240 --> 0:21:02.080
<v Speaker 10>a contribution as opposed to come and receive. So I

0:21:02.119 --> 0:21:04.920
<v Speaker 10>think we'll need to work through the criteria. It's difficult,

0:21:04.920 --> 0:21:07.960
<v Speaker 10>it's devilishly difficult, but we will need to get those

0:21:07.960 --> 0:21:11.280
<v Speaker 10>settings right because it's only by doing that that we

0:21:11.280 --> 0:21:17.119
<v Speaker 10>can ensure we can create that cultural cohesion that we

0:21:17.200 --> 0:21:19.200
<v Speaker 10>long for and that perhaps we had in the eighties

0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:19.800
<v Speaker 10>and nineties.

0:21:19.920 --> 0:21:22.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, and yeah post World War Two, I would

0:21:22.240 --> 0:21:25.680
<v Speaker 3>say dating back that far as well, just very quickly

0:21:25.720 --> 0:21:27.840
<v Speaker 3>on One Nation there was that Poland in the Daily

0:21:27.880 --> 0:21:30.520
<v Speaker 3>Telegraph today. So in terms of a three party preferred measure,

0:21:30.560 --> 0:21:35.200
<v Speaker 3>this tracks competitiveness between the Coalition and One Nation. It

0:21:35.280 --> 0:21:37.639
<v Speaker 3>suggests that the Opposition leader Angus Taylor has a mountain

0:21:37.680 --> 0:21:41.399
<v Speaker 3>to climb to claw back support from One Nation. Labors

0:21:41.440 --> 0:21:43.760
<v Speaker 3>well ahead there one nation twenty nine percent. The Coalition

0:21:43.800 --> 0:21:46.639
<v Speaker 3>they're on twenty seven percent. You've got a lot of

0:21:46.640 --> 0:21:50.439
<v Speaker 3>work to do, Tony between now and the next election.

0:21:51.160 --> 0:21:53.879
<v Speaker 4>How do you do that? Well, you're right.

0:21:54.240 --> 0:21:56.119
<v Speaker 10>The election of the new leader has brought us to

0:21:56.160 --> 0:21:58.600
<v Speaker 10>the bottom of the mountain and we need to climb it.

0:21:58.720 --> 0:22:00.639
<v Speaker 10>The way we do it is we earned a Liberal

0:22:00.640 --> 0:22:06.520
<v Speaker 10>Party back into a policy will create a set of

0:22:06.560 --> 0:22:09.320
<v Speaker 10>policies that meet the needs of the Australian people, but

0:22:09.359 --> 0:22:13.679
<v Speaker 10>more importantly reflect traditional conservative liberal values. I mean, I

0:22:13.720 --> 0:22:16.920
<v Speaker 10>think one of the reasons why people are moving into

0:22:16.960 --> 0:22:19.879
<v Speaker 10>the one nation column is they're confused about what the

0:22:19.920 --> 0:22:23.280
<v Speaker 10>Liberal Party stands for. That's not an Australia or a

0:22:23.320 --> 0:22:26.560
<v Speaker 10>Liberal Party that we saw under John Howard or Tony Abbott.

0:22:26.600 --> 0:22:29.800
<v Speaker 10>People knew instinctively what the Liberal Party stood for, and

0:22:29.840 --> 0:22:33.840
<v Speaker 10>it stood for policies that met the standard of traditional

0:22:33.920 --> 0:22:37.359
<v Speaker 10>liberal conservative values. And we need to do that and

0:22:37.440 --> 0:22:41.240
<v Speaker 10>make it very clear. But Janika, I'm saying to my colleagues,

0:22:41.280 --> 0:22:44.399
<v Speaker 10>talks cheap. The reality is we need to act like

0:22:44.480 --> 0:22:48.480
<v Speaker 10>a center right political party or we need those policies

0:22:48.520 --> 0:22:52.640
<v Speaker 10>to be set out clearly and communicated to the Australian people.

0:22:52.680 --> 0:22:54.679
<v Speaker 10>And then we need to do We need to act

0:22:54.760 --> 0:22:58.000
<v Speaker 10>every day in accordance with the values and the standards

0:22:58.000 --> 0:23:00.159
<v Speaker 10>we set for ourselves. It's only on that basis that

0:23:00.200 --> 0:23:02.959
<v Speaker 10>we can start walking up the track, climb this mountain.

0:23:03.920 --> 0:23:07.399
<v Speaker 10>Any deviation off that track, it's a very narrow path.

0:23:07.480 --> 0:23:12.040
<v Speaker 10>Any disunity, any attempt to talk about ourselves, will throw

0:23:12.080 --> 0:23:15.159
<v Speaker 10>us off that course and we will never climb this mountain.

0:23:15.200 --> 0:23:18.960
<v Speaker 10>And we'll just see one nation vote climb. Pardon the pun,

0:23:19.080 --> 0:23:20.320
<v Speaker 10>up and up and up.

0:23:20.440 --> 0:23:23.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, look, you're not wrong, You're absolutely not wrong. A

0:23:23.920 --> 0:23:26.960
<v Speaker 3>long road ahead, but you know, I hope for the

0:23:26.960 --> 0:23:29.000
<v Speaker 3>best for the party, that's for sure. Tony Passon and

0:23:29.000 --> 0:23:30.399
<v Speaker 3>I to see you as always, Thanks very much for

0:23:30.480 --> 0:23:33.000
<v Speaker 3>joining me. Well let's get into it now with my panel,

0:23:33.080 --> 0:23:35.360
<v Speaker 3>former New South Wales Police Minister David Elliott and New

0:23:35.359 --> 0:23:37.640
<v Speaker 3>South Wales Independent MP Tanya Mahala.

0:23:37.720 --> 0:23:39.280
<v Speaker 4>Kind of both of you as always, thank you for

0:23:39.359 --> 0:23:41.680
<v Speaker 4>joining me. We're going to start with these iis brides. David,

0:23:41.720 --> 0:23:43.520
<v Speaker 4>you're a former counter terrorism minister.

0:23:44.440 --> 0:23:47.959
<v Speaker 3>Do you buy this argument from labor that or they

0:23:48.000 --> 0:23:50.160
<v Speaker 3>haven't been at all involved? I mean, you know what

0:23:50.200 --> 0:23:52.240
<v Speaker 3>goes on behind the scenes. What can you tell us.

0:23:52.280 --> 0:23:54.639
<v Speaker 11>They're playing us for fools. They are playing us for fools.

0:23:54.640 --> 0:23:55.080
<v Speaker 9>I've sat.

0:23:55.440 --> 0:23:57.160
<v Speaker 11>I was made the to counter terrorism. It is nine

0:23:57.200 --> 0:23:59.320
<v Speaker 11>years ago and one of the first briefings I had

0:23:59.800 --> 0:24:03.120
<v Speaker 11>was how the state governments, the service providers were going

0:24:03.160 --> 0:24:06.600
<v Speaker 11>to manage the returned Isis brides and their children. We

0:24:06.680 --> 0:24:08.840
<v Speaker 11>knew exactly what was going to happen. They were going

0:24:08.880 --> 0:24:11.360
<v Speaker 11>to come back, they radicalized, they were hateful, though eventuful,

0:24:11.560 --> 0:24:13.960
<v Speaker 11>and the state governments had to be prepared on the

0:24:13.960 --> 0:24:16.520
<v Speaker 11>back of the briefings from the Commonwealth about where they're

0:24:16.520 --> 0:24:17.959
<v Speaker 11>going to go to school, what counseling are they going

0:24:18.000 --> 0:24:19.879
<v Speaker 11>to need, what sign of medical assistance they're going to

0:24:19.880 --> 0:24:24.479
<v Speaker 11>be they're going to require. So for the Commonwealth government

0:24:24.520 --> 0:24:26.480
<v Speaker 11>to stand up and say we've got nothing to do

0:24:26.600 --> 0:24:31.320
<v Speaker 11>with this is so frustrating because it is a lie,

0:24:32.320 --> 0:24:35.639
<v Speaker 11>and I think they dug themselves into this lie, and

0:24:35.680 --> 0:24:39.000
<v Speaker 11>they're now trying to they're trying to get themselves out

0:24:39.000 --> 0:24:42.280
<v Speaker 11>of it. And as we all know in politics, sometimes

0:24:42.320 --> 0:24:45.159
<v Speaker 11>it's not the act, it's the cover up exactly.

0:24:45.200 --> 0:24:48.439
<v Speaker 3>And it's getting worse and worse because their lies are

0:24:48.480 --> 0:24:51.040
<v Speaker 3>being exposed on the daily now and what about this

0:24:51.119 --> 0:24:55.400
<v Speaker 3>argument from Tony Burke Tanya when she said, oh, he said,

0:24:55.440 --> 0:24:57.119
<v Speaker 3>well some of the group are not coherent.

0:24:58.280 --> 0:25:00.720
<v Speaker 4>Is that the threshold? Is it now? For enough? Had?

0:25:01.080 --> 0:25:03.640
<v Speaker 9>I thought he hadn't met them or interviewed them. And

0:25:03.640 --> 0:25:05.480
<v Speaker 9>how it can come up with that exactly?

0:25:05.520 --> 0:25:06.760
<v Speaker 4>How can you make that assessment?

0:25:07.800 --> 0:25:10.200
<v Speaker 9>I have to say, And look, I agree completely with

0:25:10.600 --> 0:25:14.280
<v Speaker 9>David and yourself on this, and I do think there's

0:25:14.320 --> 0:25:17.159
<v Speaker 9>such a horrific cover up here that it's worth actually

0:25:17.280 --> 0:25:21.040
<v Speaker 9>the Coalition or anyone calling for a Royal Commission or

0:25:21.040 --> 0:25:23.560
<v Speaker 9>a Special Commissioner of Inquiry so that we can actually

0:25:24.400 --> 0:25:28.480
<v Speaker 9>demand that public servants be brought forward and question these

0:25:28.480 --> 0:25:31.040
<v Speaker 9>public servants so they can actually provide the details. Is

0:25:31.080 --> 0:25:36.320
<v Speaker 9>how much the government's actually involved. The idea that there's

0:25:36.359 --> 0:25:39.240
<v Speaker 9>nothing to see, they haven't been partaking in any kind

0:25:39.280 --> 0:25:41.800
<v Speaker 9>of discussions about how to get these women back is

0:25:42.160 --> 0:25:45.120
<v Speaker 9>a complete and utter lie, not just a cover up.

0:25:45.160 --> 0:25:48.920
<v Speaker 9>It's a lie that needs to be exposed. I have

0:25:49.000 --> 0:25:51.679
<v Speaker 9>to say this. It does make my blood boil to

0:25:51.760 --> 0:25:55.560
<v Speaker 9>think that these women voluntarily signed up knowing that they

0:25:55.560 --> 0:25:59.640
<v Speaker 9>were going to go to a country, participate and join

0:25:59.680 --> 0:26:04.960
<v Speaker 9>a terrorrist organization. Marry some isis fighter and then once

0:26:05.000 --> 0:26:07.480
<v Speaker 9>they're discarded, the husbands are either dead or in jails

0:26:07.480 --> 0:26:10.359
<v Speaker 9>exactlyefully they've been discarded, they want to come back to

0:26:10.400 --> 0:26:14.320
<v Speaker 9>Australia with their offspring and they expect the Australian taxpayer

0:26:14.400 --> 0:26:15.120
<v Speaker 9>to foot the bill.

0:26:15.480 --> 0:26:16.120
<v Speaker 4>It makes me.

0:26:16.160 --> 0:26:19.560
<v Speaker 9>So angry to think about how many older Australians who

0:26:19.640 --> 0:26:22.800
<v Speaker 9>are on pensions on the waiting list for house Look,

0:26:22.840 --> 0:26:25.840
<v Speaker 9>that's a good point, waiting for elective surgery.

0:26:25.680 --> 0:26:27.520
<v Speaker 4>Won't even have enough houses in this country.

0:26:27.520 --> 0:26:31.280
<v Speaker 9>Correct, These people were clearly Burke and his and his

0:26:31.440 --> 0:26:34.320
<v Speaker 9>friends were clearly going to far straight.

0:26:34.400 --> 0:26:36.640
<v Speaker 4>They're pandering. These absolutely'ir pandering.

0:26:36.680 --> 0:26:39.440
<v Speaker 3>And yeah again it's us Australians who what we just

0:26:39.480 --> 0:26:42.560
<v Speaker 3>see idly buy while you know a possible threat comes

0:26:42.600 --> 0:26:43.320
<v Speaker 3>into this country.

0:26:43.720 --> 0:26:45.919
<v Speaker 4>Let's move on. I want to talk about Labour's disastrous

0:26:45.920 --> 0:26:46.880
<v Speaker 4>pursuit of net zero.

0:26:47.240 --> 0:26:50.440
<v Speaker 3>It's been labeled as an industrial suicide. Energy experts have

0:26:50.520 --> 0:26:53.880
<v Speaker 3>told Sky News that the consequences of soaring system costs,

0:26:54.119 --> 0:26:57.440
<v Speaker 3>project overruns and tightening emissions policy will deliver the death

0:26:57.520 --> 0:27:00.399
<v Speaker 3>knell for the heavy industry. So this is our minium

0:27:00.400 --> 0:27:04.720
<v Speaker 3>smelters Alumina refinery still works. Fertilizer plants, and the list

0:27:04.800 --> 0:27:07.840
<v Speaker 3>goes on. I mean, David, unsurprising because these plants that

0:27:07.880 --> 0:27:10.120
<v Speaker 3>are consuming so much energy in the first place, there

0:27:10.160 --> 0:27:12.520
<v Speaker 3>bills a skyrocketing and we're going to go to what

0:27:12.560 --> 0:27:14.040
<v Speaker 3>twenty fifty with this disaster.

0:27:14.840 --> 0:27:18.400
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, this should scare the bajass out of every Australia,

0:27:18.560 --> 0:27:21.719
<v Speaker 11>not just the people that are involved in mass production,

0:27:21.840 --> 0:27:26.439
<v Speaker 11>because because construction costs in Australia at the moment, with

0:27:26.520 --> 0:27:29.600
<v Speaker 11>a massive backlog we have for infrastructure, the construction costs

0:27:29.600 --> 0:27:31.959
<v Speaker 11>in Australia at the moment are getting out of hands.

0:27:32.400 --> 0:27:36.720
<v Speaker 11>So this will supercharge those costs. This will put a

0:27:36.760 --> 0:27:39.720
<v Speaker 11>loading on the cost of construction in this country. And

0:27:39.760 --> 0:27:43.040
<v Speaker 11>the engineers across the country will tell you that they

0:27:43.160 --> 0:27:49.240
<v Speaker 11>cannot fathom the blowout in infrastructure costs in this country.

0:27:49.400 --> 0:27:51.600
<v Speaker 11>And you know, it's literally getting to a point where

0:27:52.000 --> 0:27:56.320
<v Speaker 11>tenders have been closed and then tenders are asking if

0:27:56.359 --> 0:28:01.080
<v Speaker 11>they can have a revised tendering process, because by the

0:28:01.080 --> 0:28:04.840
<v Speaker 11>time the job's been approved, those costs are completely irrelevant,

0:28:04.880 --> 0:28:07.119
<v Speaker 11>those costs are out of have been blown out. So

0:28:08.200 --> 0:28:10.560
<v Speaker 11>and of course it's it's very much a case of

0:28:10.640 --> 0:28:14.000
<v Speaker 11>the marketing of zero. It should never have been called zero.

0:28:14.119 --> 0:28:15.520
<v Speaker 11>Nobody believed it was going.

0:28:15.400 --> 0:28:16.280
<v Speaker 4>To be the con job.

0:28:16.440 --> 0:28:18.640
<v Speaker 11>It should have just been we want to be good

0:28:18.720 --> 0:28:20.960
<v Speaker 11>custodians of the earth, and everybody would have gone on

0:28:20.960 --> 0:28:21.439
<v Speaker 11>the journey.

0:28:21.480 --> 0:28:22.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, everybody.

0:28:22.359 --> 0:28:24.560
<v Speaker 11>Yes, there is a case where renewable energies in my

0:28:24.800 --> 0:28:27.800
<v Speaker 11>in my house, for example, have been cost effective. But

0:28:27.880 --> 0:28:31.440
<v Speaker 11>please don't make the cost of building my home triple

0:28:31.880 --> 0:28:34.439
<v Speaker 11>because you guys can't. You guys can't come up with

0:28:34.520 --> 0:28:35.440
<v Speaker 11>some consistent and.

0:28:35.359 --> 0:28:36.440
<v Speaker 4>Believable pobles totally.

0:28:36.440 --> 0:28:38.480
<v Speaker 3>And the problem is as well manufacturing. The sector is

0:28:38.520 --> 0:28:41.160
<v Speaker 3>already down in this country right now. One driven labor

0:28:41.200 --> 0:28:43.160
<v Speaker 3>has driven it to the ground. But you add energy

0:28:43.160 --> 0:28:46.880
<v Speaker 3>cross on to that, it is a significant warning to

0:28:46.920 --> 0:28:48.320
<v Speaker 3>say it's the death of the industry.

0:28:48.960 --> 0:28:49.160
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:28:49.160 --> 0:28:52.440
<v Speaker 9>In Australia, Injury Regulator has just approved another six hundred

0:28:52.520 --> 0:28:56.080
<v Speaker 9>million to subsidize renewable for the next financial year, on

0:28:56.120 --> 0:28:58.360
<v Speaker 9>top of four hundred ninety three million last year and

0:28:58.440 --> 0:28:59.640
<v Speaker 9>three hundred and forty one.

0:28:59.440 --> 0:29:00.400
<v Speaker 4>Million the year before.

0:29:00.640 --> 0:29:05.160
<v Speaker 9>So it tells you that renewables are just forever going

0:29:05.200 --> 0:29:09.600
<v Speaker 9>to be a huge cost and burden for Australians. But look,

0:29:09.680 --> 0:29:13.720
<v Speaker 9>our industries are already suffering we're already there's so much

0:29:13.760 --> 0:29:16.680
<v Speaker 9>that Australia doesn't produce. As it is in Australia, we've

0:29:16.680 --> 0:29:19.640
<v Speaker 9>got to hold on to whatever we can, to the refineries,

0:29:19.680 --> 0:29:22.440
<v Speaker 9>to hold onto what machinery that we do continue to

0:29:22.480 --> 0:29:25.840
<v Speaker 9>still to build in Australia, and of course energy costs

0:29:25.840 --> 0:29:27.800
<v Speaker 9>are a huge factor. I've got to say something about

0:29:27.800 --> 0:29:30.320
<v Speaker 9>net zero Commission. I remind David, and I know David

0:29:30.360 --> 0:29:33.240
<v Speaker 9>wasn't in Parliament, but the Coalition New South Wales supported

0:29:33.320 --> 0:29:36.520
<v Speaker 9>the net zero targets in New South Wales. They're crazy

0:29:36.560 --> 0:29:39.560
<v Speaker 9>twenty thirty five targets, let alone the twenty fifty and

0:29:39.640 --> 0:29:42.160
<v Speaker 9>the net Zero Commission that they've set up in New

0:29:42.240 --> 0:29:45.880
<v Speaker 9>South Wales, which has been plowed with millions of dollars

0:29:46.080 --> 0:29:49.280
<v Speaker 9>lots of stuff, is now demanding that every agency in

0:29:49.320 --> 0:29:53.840
<v Speaker 9>New South Wales respond regarding those emission targets. They're putting

0:29:53.840 --> 0:29:56.080
<v Speaker 9>pressure on every single agency. So it's going to get

0:29:56.120 --> 0:29:58.040
<v Speaker 9>worse and worse. So you can only imagine the level

0:29:58.080 --> 0:30:00.600
<v Speaker 9>of costs.

0:30:00.160 --> 0:30:02.480
<v Speaker 3>It is out of control, and it is already out

0:30:02.480 --> 0:30:04.360
<v Speaker 3>of control. That's the problem of going broken backwards in

0:30:04.400 --> 0:30:06.760
<v Speaker 3>this country. Now we've got to talk about the former

0:30:06.760 --> 0:30:09.840
<v Speaker 3>Prince Andrew. Obviously, his arrest over the weekend has now

0:30:09.920 --> 0:30:13.440
<v Speaker 3>reignited calls for Australia to become a republic. It gets

0:30:13.440 --> 0:30:15.320
<v Speaker 3>worse than work. This is a disaster now for the

0:30:15.400 --> 0:30:20.080
<v Speaker 3>royal family. David, correct me if I'm wrong. You were

0:30:20.120 --> 0:30:21.880
<v Speaker 3>part of a republican movement.

0:30:23.840 --> 0:30:25.840
<v Speaker 4>Around the no case, got it wrong so.

0:30:27.640 --> 0:30:27.840
<v Speaker 10>Well.

0:30:27.880 --> 0:30:30.040
<v Speaker 11>Listen, the Republicans have been trying to push their calls

0:30:30.040 --> 0:30:31.760
<v Speaker 11>since Henry the knocked off Aenderlin.

0:30:32.240 --> 0:30:33.920
<v Speaker 4>This is true, This is true.

0:30:33.960 --> 0:30:37.400
<v Speaker 11>There's nothing new. They lost badly in ninety nine and

0:30:37.440 --> 0:30:40.840
<v Speaker 11>they threw everything at us. They said, you know, they

0:30:40.920 --> 0:30:44.200
<v Speaker 11>threw you know, the stories about the late Princess Diana.

0:30:44.280 --> 0:30:47.840
<v Speaker 11>They tried to call Prince Philip everything under the sun.

0:30:48.000 --> 0:30:51.000
<v Speaker 11>They lost badly. Then they said, don't worry everybody. When

0:30:51.000 --> 0:30:53.360
<v Speaker 11>the queen dies, that will be our moment to strike.

0:30:53.400 --> 0:30:54.760
<v Speaker 11>Guess what happened with her disaster?

0:30:54.960 --> 0:30:55.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, exactly.

0:30:56.120 --> 0:30:59.040
<v Speaker 11>It went to Pastry. Because they didn't count on the

0:30:59.080 --> 0:31:02.520
<v Speaker 11>fact that Charles would. He's so well received around the Commonwealth.

0:31:02.640 --> 0:31:07.840
<v Speaker 11>So knocking over the monarchy because of Prince Andrew would

0:31:07.880 --> 0:31:10.240
<v Speaker 11>be like knocking over the papacy because of the Borges.

0:31:11.080 --> 0:31:12.520
<v Speaker 11>It just doesn't make any sense.

0:31:12.640 --> 0:31:12.800
<v Speaker 10>No.

0:31:12.880 --> 0:31:15.200
<v Speaker 11>I agree, and I think the King has handed this

0:31:15.240 --> 0:31:18.640
<v Speaker 11>with dignity under the circumstances, and they've done the right

0:31:18.680 --> 0:31:21.600
<v Speaker 11>thing by stripping him of all of his titles. But

0:31:22.160 --> 0:31:24.040
<v Speaker 11>the monarchy's been around for a thousand years and have

0:31:24.080 --> 0:31:25.200
<v Speaker 11>seen a lot worse than this.

0:31:25.360 --> 0:31:27.000
<v Speaker 3>Well, I mean, he's going to get heckled now everywhere.

0:31:27.000 --> 0:31:28.600
<v Speaker 3>And this is the problem now the king is he's

0:31:28.640 --> 0:31:31.320
<v Speaker 3>out and about doing his royal duties and he's getting heckled.

0:31:31.760 --> 0:31:34.400
<v Speaker 3>I mean, is it really time to reignite the Republican

0:31:34.480 --> 0:31:35.200
<v Speaker 3>movement debate?

0:31:35.280 --> 0:31:36.440
<v Speaker 12>Do you think there's.

0:31:36.280 --> 0:31:40.520
<v Speaker 9>Nobody left in Australia that's that's work on that campaign?

0:31:40.600 --> 0:31:40.880
<v Speaker 4>I think?

0:31:41.320 --> 0:31:44.680
<v Speaker 12>Is it matthis away for the laborer they abolished it,

0:31:48.000 --> 0:31:50.520
<v Speaker 12>give it up the Labor Party, you've given up on

0:31:50.560 --> 0:31:51.440
<v Speaker 12>the Australia public.

0:31:51.560 --> 0:31:54.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, everyone has no one maybe the Green the Greens

0:31:55.520 --> 0:31:59.680
<v Speaker 3>maybe well the Greens please until they get their knighthoods, well,

0:32:01.560 --> 0:32:03.600
<v Speaker 3>well accept those. But look, it is a disaster for

0:32:03.640 --> 0:32:06.000
<v Speaker 3>the royal family when you think, and this investigation's only

0:32:06.040 --> 0:32:09.720
<v Speaker 3>just begun, let's let's see what happens, and it's getting

0:32:09.720 --> 0:32:11.920
<v Speaker 3>worse for people around the world as well.

0:32:11.960 --> 0:32:13.760
<v Speaker 4>I will say that Tanya David.

0:32:13.840 --> 0:32:15.640
<v Speaker 3>Great to see you as a Thanks very much for

0:32:15.720 --> 0:32:16.640
<v Speaker 3>joining me on the show.

0:32:17.080 --> 0:32:19.560
<v Speaker 4>So with us coming up after the break, Donald Trump's.

0:32:19.280 --> 0:32:23.080
<v Speaker 3>New ultimatum for Iran war is on the horizon. We'll

0:32:23.080 --> 0:32:26.040
<v Speaker 3>speak to an expert about the President's latest red line.

0:32:26.080 --> 0:32:32.200
<v Speaker 4>That's next. Welcome back.

0:32:32.280 --> 0:32:35.080
<v Speaker 3>Let's get the latest on the volatile situation in Iran.

0:32:35.160 --> 0:32:35.360
<v Speaker 4>Now.

0:32:35.400 --> 0:32:37.880
<v Speaker 3>Donald Trump's given a ran a deadline of ten days

0:32:37.920 --> 0:32:41.160
<v Speaker 3>to reach a deal on nuclear negotiations as the US

0:32:41.240 --> 0:32:44.400
<v Speaker 3>military built up in the Middle East intensifies. Joining me

0:32:44.480 --> 0:32:48.120
<v Speaker 3>now is former Defense Deputy Secretary for Strategy Peter Jennings. Peter,

0:32:48.200 --> 0:32:50.080
<v Speaker 3>good to see you again. Thank you very much for

0:32:50.160 --> 0:32:52.280
<v Speaker 3>joining me. You and I spoke about this a couple

0:32:52.320 --> 0:32:55.280
<v Speaker 3>of days ago. It was volatile then, but where are

0:32:55.280 --> 0:32:55.920
<v Speaker 3>we at now?

0:32:57.800 --> 0:33:00.400
<v Speaker 1>So I thought, Tanika, that there was every possible ability

0:33:00.520 --> 0:33:03.720
<v Speaker 1>we would be at this moment talking about an American

0:33:03.760 --> 0:33:09.000
<v Speaker 1>strike unfolding across Iran. That obviously hasn't happened, but I

0:33:09.040 --> 0:33:11.160
<v Speaker 1>think we're probably within a day or two of it

0:33:11.360 --> 0:33:16.040
<v Speaker 1>actually taking place. The second US aircraft carrier, the gerald Ford,

0:33:16.120 --> 0:33:19.840
<v Speaker 1>came into the Mediterranean through the Straits of Gibraltar about

0:33:19.840 --> 0:33:23.080
<v Speaker 1>thirty six hours ago, so it's maybe a day away

0:33:23.080 --> 0:33:25.680
<v Speaker 1>from its ideal location from the point of view of

0:33:25.720 --> 0:33:30.880
<v Speaker 1>conducting air operations. I noticed there's also a British Royal

0:33:31.760 --> 0:33:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Royal Air Force fighter group has moved into the Middle

0:33:35.680 --> 0:33:40.160
<v Speaker 1>Eastern theater as well. So what's happening has been a

0:33:40.200 --> 0:33:45.080
<v Speaker 1>continued buildup of military force into the region. Some have

0:33:45.160 --> 0:33:47.680
<v Speaker 1>said a build up as great as we saw before

0:33:47.760 --> 0:33:53.000
<v Speaker 1>the two thousand and three Iraq war. I would suspect

0:33:53.040 --> 0:33:56.560
<v Speaker 1>in terms of firepower even greater actually, And to me

0:33:56.680 --> 0:33:59.480
<v Speaker 1>that suggests that we're likely to see unless there is

0:33:59.520 --> 0:34:02.959
<v Speaker 1>a completely unexpected breakthrough agreement, which I think is frankly

0:34:03.000 --> 0:34:07.760
<v Speaker 1>impossible in US run negotiations. I think the possibility of

0:34:07.760 --> 0:34:11.719
<v Speaker 1>a military strike in the next few days is highly likely.

0:34:12.440 --> 0:34:15.080
<v Speaker 3>So okay, so if there is indeed a military strike,

0:34:15.280 --> 0:34:19.080
<v Speaker 3>then in the next few days, I guess what happens there.

0:34:19.120 --> 0:34:22.040
<v Speaker 3>I mean, if we've got ships already going in, it

0:34:22.600 --> 0:34:25.799
<v Speaker 3>really does feel like something's about to bubble over. Are

0:34:25.840 --> 0:34:29.080
<v Speaker 3>we actually just talking about all out war? What's the threshold?

0:34:30.239 --> 0:34:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, that's not what Trump has done in the past.

0:34:32.800 --> 0:34:35.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he does tend to be someone who goes

0:34:35.760 --> 0:34:41.000
<v Speaker 1>in in very targeted, limited ways and He's spoken in

0:34:41.040 --> 0:34:43.840
<v Speaker 1>the last twenty four hours or so about limited strikes,

0:34:44.800 --> 0:34:47.080
<v Speaker 1>But you've got to contrast that against the reality that

0:34:47.120 --> 0:34:49.920
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of force in the region, more than

0:34:50.040 --> 0:34:51.799
<v Speaker 1>is needed to just go and do a few more

0:34:51.840 --> 0:34:56.120
<v Speaker 1>strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. So I'm sticking to the

0:34:56.200 --> 0:34:58.440
<v Speaker 1>view that I think we're going to see a broader

0:34:58.640 --> 0:35:02.680
<v Speaker 1>strike which is going to target, for example, Iran's ability

0:35:02.840 --> 0:35:06.719
<v Speaker 1>to lay minds in the straits of wo Moves. They're

0:35:06.760 --> 0:35:08.640
<v Speaker 1>going to go after the Uranian Navy, They're going to

0:35:08.640 --> 0:35:13.120
<v Speaker 1>go after command and control facilities of the Uranian Revolutionary Guards,

0:35:13.640 --> 0:35:18.120
<v Speaker 1>and possibly or so against those internal forces, police and

0:35:18.160 --> 0:35:22.880
<v Speaker 1>security which are being so internally repressive of the Iranian population.

0:35:23.040 --> 0:35:26.120
<v Speaker 1>Right now, I think this is potentially going to be

0:35:27.160 --> 0:35:30.959
<v Speaker 1>the biggest military operation that we'll have seen under either

0:35:31.000 --> 0:35:34.920
<v Speaker 1>the first or second Trump presidency, And in fact, I

0:35:34.920 --> 0:35:37.000
<v Speaker 1>would be rather surprised now if it turns out to

0:35:37.040 --> 0:35:40.440
<v Speaker 1>be twenty four hours worth of missile strikes and then

0:35:40.560 --> 0:35:43.160
<v Speaker 1>that's the carriers are packing up and going home. That

0:35:43.200 --> 0:35:46.240
<v Speaker 1>doesn't seem to me to be consistent with what's happening

0:35:46.239 --> 0:35:47.080
<v Speaker 1>on the ground.

0:35:47.440 --> 0:35:48.120
<v Speaker 4>And you mentioned it.

0:35:49.200 --> 0:35:51.360
<v Speaker 3>If there is even any possibility of a deal. So

0:35:51.400 --> 0:35:54.240
<v Speaker 3>Donald Trump's laid down the line that Iran has ten days.

0:35:54.600 --> 0:35:56.520
<v Speaker 3>But the problem is, I mean, correct me if I'm wrong.

0:35:56.560 --> 0:35:58.719
<v Speaker 3>I mean, how confident can we actually be that even

0:35:58.760 --> 0:36:01.400
<v Speaker 3>if a deal was signed, even if Iran did come

0:36:01.480 --> 0:36:03.879
<v Speaker 3>to the table, would they even honor it?

0:36:05.239 --> 0:36:08.040
<v Speaker 1>Highly unlikely. I mean, that would be completely against everything

0:36:08.080 --> 0:36:11.279
<v Speaker 1>we've seen from the behavior of this regime really since

0:36:11.360 --> 0:36:15.640
<v Speaker 1>nineteen seventy nine. And I'm not reading or seeing anywhere

0:36:15.640 --> 0:36:19.040
<v Speaker 1>people saying that a breakthrough is likely. And I think

0:36:19.080 --> 0:36:23.200
<v Speaker 1>the American view is correctly that Iran is trying to

0:36:23.239 --> 0:36:27.120
<v Speaker 1>string this out. The other point I'd say, Danika on

0:36:27.160 --> 0:36:29.319
<v Speaker 1>the ten days that Trump has talked about, is that

0:36:29.880 --> 0:36:32.320
<v Speaker 1>he's never very precise in terms of his time frames.

0:36:32.320 --> 0:36:36.080
<v Speaker 1>He often says about a fortnight, and things happen much

0:36:36.120 --> 0:36:38.360
<v Speaker 1>sooner than that. So I think we've got to be

0:36:38.400 --> 0:36:41.640
<v Speaker 1>open to the reality that what Trump is doing has

0:36:41.680 --> 0:36:45.560
<v Speaker 1>been a little opaque about when those forces are ready

0:36:45.560 --> 0:36:48.400
<v Speaker 1>to go. Let me tell you they're ready to go.

0:36:48.719 --> 0:36:51.960
<v Speaker 1>They could operate right now if they wanted to. And

0:36:52.000 --> 0:36:54.120
<v Speaker 1>then the issue that Trump has is not so much

0:36:54.160 --> 0:36:56.479
<v Speaker 1>when to start, but how long can he keep them there?

0:36:57.480 --> 0:36:59.600
<v Speaker 1>At that level of readiness, you can only keep them

0:36:59.640 --> 0:37:02.200
<v Speaker 1>in the block for so long, and so I think

0:37:02.200 --> 0:37:04.960
<v Speaker 1>this is why the timeframe is closing and we're likely

0:37:05.000 --> 0:37:07.640
<v Speaker 1>to see an operation sooner rather than later.

0:37:08.160 --> 0:37:11.040
<v Speaker 3>Well, all eyes will definitely be on Trump and Iran

0:37:11.160 --> 0:37:12.680
<v Speaker 3>right now. It's going to be interesting to see how

0:37:12.680 --> 0:37:15.279
<v Speaker 3>the week pans out. Peter Jennings, good to catch up

0:37:15.320 --> 0:37:17.720
<v Speaker 3>with you again. Thanks very much for your time this evening.

0:37:18.080 --> 0:37:21.800
<v Speaker 3>We'll still to come. Donald Trump slaps of fifteen percent tariff.

0:37:21.600 --> 0:37:22.400
<v Speaker 4>On the world.

0:37:22.800 --> 0:37:25.320
<v Speaker 3>What does it mean for US? Economist Leath Van Onsolin

0:37:25.360 --> 0:37:28.040
<v Speaker 3>will explain. Plus i'vo live to London as the King

0:37:28.120 --> 0:37:31.320
<v Speaker 3>is embroiled in the Andrew Saga. GB News host Emily

0:37:31.400 --> 0:37:33.360
<v Speaker 3>Carver is next for the latest.

0:37:37.840 --> 0:37:38.359
<v Speaker 4>Welcome back.

0:37:38.400 --> 0:37:41.680
<v Speaker 3>Well, Donald Trump has announced a blanket fifteen percent.

0:37:41.440 --> 0:37:43.040
<v Speaker 4>Tariff rate on the whole world.

0:37:43.239 --> 0:37:46.879
<v Speaker 3>Joining me now is Macro Business chief economist Leath Van Nosolin. Leith,

0:37:46.920 --> 0:37:49.520
<v Speaker 3>thanks for your time. So we already got slapped with

0:37:49.520 --> 0:37:51.040
<v Speaker 3>a ten percent baseline tariff.

0:37:51.080 --> 0:37:52.919
<v Speaker 4>So what does this new hike mean for US?

0:37:54.000 --> 0:37:57.839
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, so economically, look, the increased tariff's there unfortunate and

0:37:57.920 --> 0:38:00.840
<v Speaker 13>especially for the companies impacted, they're not going to have

0:38:00.880 --> 0:38:03.080
<v Speaker 13>a massive impact on the economy, not really even a

0:38:03.200 --> 0:38:06.960
<v Speaker 13>material impact on the economy, because Australia only exports, well,

0:38:07.040 --> 0:38:09.520
<v Speaker 13>last year only exported fifty five billion dollars worth of

0:38:09.520 --> 0:38:12.279
<v Speaker 13>goods and services to the USA, So an extra five

0:38:12.320 --> 0:38:14.359
<v Speaker 13>percent tariffs is not going to move the dial from

0:38:14.360 --> 0:38:18.360
<v Speaker 13>a macro economic perspective. But I think the bigger takeaway here, Daniker,

0:38:18.400 --> 0:38:20.520
<v Speaker 13>is that Australia should be pretty wary of the Trump

0:38:20.560 --> 0:38:24.239
<v Speaker 13>administration when it talks about trade because despite the fact

0:38:24.239 --> 0:38:26.239
<v Speaker 13>we had a pre existing free trade agreement with the

0:38:26.320 --> 0:38:29.840
<v Speaker 13>USA in place for twenty years which was heavily skewed

0:38:29.840 --> 0:38:32.439
<v Speaker 13>in the US's favor, and we import twice as many

0:38:32.440 --> 0:38:35.520
<v Speaker 13>goods and services from the US as we import, will

0:38:35.560 --> 0:38:37.920
<v Speaker 13>still being smashed for this fifteen percent tariffs. So it's

0:38:38.239 --> 0:38:38.960
<v Speaker 13>very unfortunate.

0:38:39.600 --> 0:38:42.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's almost like Donald Trump woke up this morning

0:38:42.120 --> 0:38:45.520
<v Speaker 3>and decided, surprise, we're going to make her grand announcement

0:38:45.560 --> 0:38:48.759
<v Speaker 3>of tariffs. You never know what could happen day by

0:38:48.840 --> 0:38:51.560
<v Speaker 3>day there. But yeah, interesting to say that he won't

0:38:51.560 --> 0:38:52.920
<v Speaker 3>have that big of an impact on us.

0:38:53.440 --> 0:38:54.840
<v Speaker 4>Let's talk about capital gains.

0:38:54.960 --> 0:38:57.560
<v Speaker 3>Anthony Arbernezi has refused to say whether his government is

0:38:57.560 --> 0:39:01.319
<v Speaker 3>considering changes to capital gains tax here he was this morning.

0:39:02.440 --> 0:39:05.920
<v Speaker 7>Are you considering altering the capital gains tax discount in

0:39:05.920 --> 0:39:06.480
<v Speaker 7>this country?

0:39:07.120 --> 0:39:09.920
<v Speaker 6>What we're considering doing is handing down to Budget Andrew

0:39:10.400 --> 0:39:12.279
<v Speaker 6>on the second Tuesday in May.

0:39:12.400 --> 0:39:14.200
<v Speaker 7>So no CGT change.

0:39:15.080 --> 0:39:19.840
<v Speaker 6>Our focus, as I've said, is tax cuts this July.

0:39:21.080 --> 0:39:23.040
<v Speaker 4>I just wonder leth what this means.

0:39:23.040 --> 0:39:25.279
<v Speaker 3>I mean, if you've got an investment property, you know,

0:39:25.320 --> 0:39:27.840
<v Speaker 3>we don't have enough houses as it is, Which should

0:39:27.880 --> 0:39:30.839
<v Speaker 3>we be concerned about any of these changes or not?

0:39:31.760 --> 0:39:34.279
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, So look, I personally believe that capital gains tax

0:39:34.400 --> 0:39:37.360
<v Speaker 13>discount is too generous and it does encourage property investment

0:39:37.400 --> 0:39:39.920
<v Speaker 13>by too much property investment into established homes, and that

0:39:40.280 --> 0:39:43.240
<v Speaker 13>does crowd out first home buyers. So if you reduce

0:39:43.280 --> 0:39:45.360
<v Speaker 13>the capital gains text discount, it we'll put some tiny

0:39:45.400 --> 0:39:47.920
<v Speaker 13>downward pressure on house prices, not a lot, but it

0:39:47.960 --> 0:39:50.239
<v Speaker 13>should lift the home ownership rates slightly because you can

0:39:50.320 --> 0:39:53.759
<v Speaker 13>have a fewer investors competing against first home buyers. And

0:39:53.760 --> 0:39:55.279
<v Speaker 13>it's also going to provide the government with a bit

0:39:55.280 --> 0:39:58.160
<v Speaker 13>of extra tax revenew But what I'd like to say,

0:39:58.160 --> 0:40:00.040
<v Speaker 13>and I actually agreet the business counts on this to

0:40:00.040 --> 0:40:03.160
<v Speaker 13>see the capital gains text discount reduced in conjunction with

0:40:03.200 --> 0:40:06.720
<v Speaker 13>a broader tax reform program that basically spreads the burden

0:40:06.760 --> 0:40:09.640
<v Speaker 13>of taxation away from workers, because at the moment, worker

0:40:09.640 --> 0:40:12.040
<v Speaker 13>is an incredibly heavily text, and we don't tax a

0:40:12.040 --> 0:40:14.480
<v Speaker 13>whole bunch of other things that we should. So I'd

0:40:14.600 --> 0:40:18.120
<v Speaker 13>rather see it done, you know, with respect to a

0:40:18.160 --> 0:40:20.359
<v Speaker 13>broader tax reform package. And I also think that that

0:40:20.480 --> 0:40:24.560
<v Speaker 13>existing investors should be grandfather as well, because they obviously

0:40:24.600 --> 0:40:27.360
<v Speaker 13>undertook the investments with a certain set of rules, and

0:40:27.360 --> 0:40:30.440
<v Speaker 13>to be unfairter then change the rules after they've undertaken

0:40:30.600 --> 0:40:31.600
<v Speaker 13>their investments.

0:40:32.320 --> 0:40:34.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, look, it'll be interesting to see how this one

0:40:34.440 --> 0:40:35.040
<v Speaker 3>plays out.

0:40:35.200 --> 0:40:35.279
<v Speaker 9>Now.

0:40:35.320 --> 0:40:37.280
<v Speaker 3>I want to talk trade is because a new report

0:40:37.320 --> 0:40:39.799
<v Speaker 3>has found that there simply aren't enough trades people to

0:40:39.840 --> 0:40:42.480
<v Speaker 3>meet Labour's target of building one point two million homes

0:40:42.520 --> 0:40:46.480
<v Speaker 3>over five years. It's currently tracking twenty seven percent below

0:40:46.560 --> 0:40:50.239
<v Speaker 3>its target. You know, labor has not achieved not one

0:40:50.360 --> 0:40:52.040
<v Speaker 3>of its housing goals. And as you and I have

0:40:52.080 --> 0:40:54.160
<v Speaker 3>spoken about this in the past, lethe yet. You know,

0:40:54.200 --> 0:40:57.600
<v Speaker 3>we've got the migration map well and truly open. Where

0:40:57.640 --> 0:40:59.200
<v Speaker 3>on earth are we going to put all these people?

0:41:00.000 --> 0:41:02.840
<v Speaker 3>It comes to the bill, the actual trades, how short

0:41:02.920 --> 0:41:03.600
<v Speaker 3>could we be?

0:41:04.520 --> 0:41:07.200
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, so cording to build skills Australia where one hundred

0:41:07.239 --> 0:41:10.520
<v Speaker 13>and seventeen thousand trades short to meet the government's housing targets.

0:41:10.520 --> 0:41:13.560
<v Speaker 13>Now again we're running way behind that, but that is

0:41:13.719 --> 0:41:17.320
<v Speaker 13>just to increase the housing supply, so it doesn't factor

0:41:17.320 --> 0:41:20.800
<v Speaker 13>in all the additional infrastructure you need for a growing population,

0:41:21.560 --> 0:41:24.560
<v Speaker 13>you know, all the extra energy infrastructure we need, or

0:41:24.600 --> 0:41:27.080
<v Speaker 13>the Brisbane Olympics, that sort of thing. But the reality

0:41:27.120 --> 0:41:29.640
<v Speaker 13>here is that Australia's housing infrastructure shortage is kind of

0:41:29.680 --> 0:41:32.960
<v Speaker 13>worsen so long as the government keeps importing more people

0:41:33.160 --> 0:41:36.560
<v Speaker 13>than we can build for. And the optimal solution therefore

0:41:36.760 --> 0:41:39.760
<v Speaker 13>is to run a smaller and more targeted immigration program.

0:41:39.880 --> 0:41:42.120
<v Speaker 13>So it needs to be smaller so we don't so

0:41:42.239 --> 0:41:44.600
<v Speaker 13>demand doesn't run ahead of supply. We also need a

0:41:44.640 --> 0:41:48.520
<v Speaker 13>better targeted immigration system that targets areas of genuine scored

0:41:48.719 --> 0:41:52.360
<v Speaker 13>a shortage like tradees, instead of importing more uber drivers,

0:41:52.360 --> 0:41:55.000
<v Speaker 13>which we don't need. It's otherwise I don't if we

0:41:55.040 --> 0:41:58.000
<v Speaker 13>don't run a small immigration program that's better targeted. These

0:41:58.040 --> 0:42:00.719
<v Speaker 13>shortages of housing infrastructural as other things are just going

0:42:00.719 --> 0:42:01.560
<v Speaker 13>to continue forever.

0:42:02.200 --> 0:42:06.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we just seemed to be going backwards at the

0:42:06.040 --> 0:42:06.560
<v Speaker 3>same time.

0:42:06.719 --> 0:42:08.400
<v Speaker 4>We're almost out of time, but very quickly.

0:42:08.719 --> 0:42:11.000
<v Speaker 3>Real wages they're also going backwards for the first time

0:42:11.040 --> 0:42:12.399
<v Speaker 3>since September between twenty three.

0:42:12.480 --> 0:42:13.960
<v Speaker 4>What does this mean moving forward?

0:42:14.520 --> 0:42:17.200
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, Look, unfortunately the Zerve Bank of Australia's latest statement of

0:42:17.239 --> 0:42:19.880
<v Speaker 13>Monetary policy for US for US at real wages and

0:42:19.960 --> 0:42:22.000
<v Speaker 13>not going to recover over the Ford estimate. So by

0:42:23.239 --> 0:42:26.040
<v Speaker 13>by I think it's the end of twenty twenty eight,

0:42:26.360 --> 0:42:29.080
<v Speaker 13>they're still going to be tracking at late twenty eleven levels. Now,

0:42:29.200 --> 0:42:31.319
<v Speaker 13>this all gets down to productivity. If we don't if

0:42:31.320 --> 0:42:33.840
<v Speaker 13>Australia don't lift this productivity growth, we're not going to

0:42:33.880 --> 0:42:35.480
<v Speaker 13>have real wage growth and we're not going to have

0:42:35.520 --> 0:42:37.879
<v Speaker 13>per capita GDP growth. It's as simple as that. That

0:42:37.920 --> 0:42:39.080
<v Speaker 13>should be the government's focus.

0:42:39.719 --> 0:42:42.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Jim Chalmers doesn't seem too worried at the moment.

0:42:42.920 --> 0:42:45.600
<v Speaker 3>That's half of the problem. Leith van Oncel nice to

0:42:45.640 --> 0:42:48.440
<v Speaker 3>see was always thanks very much for your time this evening. Well,

0:42:48.440 --> 0:42:51.440
<v Speaker 3>the Andrew Mount Batton winsor saga is a disaster for

0:42:51.480 --> 0:42:53.480
<v Speaker 3>the Royal family and it gets even worse for the

0:42:53.560 --> 0:42:56.480
<v Speaker 3>King and mid revelations. King Charles was warned as long

0:42:56.520 --> 0:43:00.239
<v Speaker 3>as twenty nineteen that the royal family's name was being

0:43:00.360 --> 0:43:05.000
<v Speaker 3>abused by Andrew mount Batten Windsor's business associations. Joining us

0:43:05.040 --> 0:43:08.240
<v Speaker 3>now from London is gb News host Emily Carver. Emily,

0:43:08.280 --> 0:43:09.160
<v Speaker 3>thanks for your time.

0:43:09.840 --> 0:43:12.160
<v Speaker 4>Well here we go again. What more can you tell

0:43:12.239 --> 0:43:12.680
<v Speaker 4>us about this?

0:43:14.080 --> 0:43:18.279
<v Speaker 14>Well? Absolutely, the papers are absolutely full of new revelations

0:43:18.320 --> 0:43:22.840
<v Speaker 14>about Prince Andrew, what and when the Royal family knew.

0:43:23.680 --> 0:43:26.759
<v Speaker 14>The attention is, as you say, back on the King himself.

0:43:26.800 --> 0:43:28.800
<v Speaker 14>This is a revelation in the Daily Mail this morning

0:43:28.840 --> 0:43:32.239
<v Speaker 14>that an email from twenty nineteen suggested that the King

0:43:32.360 --> 0:43:35.520
<v Speaker 14>was warned then by a whistleblower about the actions of

0:43:35.560 --> 0:43:39.279
<v Speaker 14>his brother. Now this is all about Andrew's financial conduct,

0:43:39.719 --> 0:43:43.840
<v Speaker 14>using his royal status for private financial dealings, particularly linked

0:43:43.840 --> 0:43:47.520
<v Speaker 14>to the very controversial businessman David Rowland. Now the email

0:43:48.320 --> 0:43:51.440
<v Speaker 14>warned that Andrew had secret financial links to this controversial

0:43:51.440 --> 0:43:54.080
<v Speaker 14>millionaire who was abusing his royal links, and claimed that

0:43:54.160 --> 0:43:58.040
<v Speaker 14>Andrew's sanctions suggest he considers his relationship with David Rowland

0:43:58.120 --> 0:44:00.680
<v Speaker 14>more important, even than that of his family. That is

0:44:00.719 --> 0:44:05.200
<v Speaker 14>the claim in the emails Also, the whistleblower urged that

0:44:05.280 --> 0:44:08.920
<v Speaker 14>the matter was taken seriously in order to protect the

0:44:08.960 --> 0:44:13.680
<v Speaker 14>reputation of the royal family. So now the questions are really,

0:44:14.320 --> 0:44:16.640
<v Speaker 14>if King Charles was warned about Andrew's conduct all the

0:44:16.680 --> 0:44:19.520
<v Speaker 14>way back in twenty nineteen, how seriously did he take it?

0:44:19.560 --> 0:44:23.040
<v Speaker 14>Then did he act upon it? Was enough done to

0:44:23.040 --> 0:44:27.879
<v Speaker 14>protect the institution? Did the Royal household handle Andrew's controversies

0:44:28.040 --> 0:44:31.400
<v Speaker 14>quickly and firmly enough? So it'll be very interesting to

0:44:31.400 --> 0:44:33.759
<v Speaker 14>see how the Royal family deal with this. Will they

0:44:33.800 --> 0:44:37.000
<v Speaker 14>remain silent, will they put out a statement? Will more

0:44:37.040 --> 0:44:39.359
<v Speaker 14>be done? There's lots of talk about removing Andrew from

0:44:39.400 --> 0:44:40.320
<v Speaker 14>the line of succession.

0:44:40.480 --> 0:44:42.000
<v Speaker 4>The government can do that.

0:44:42.320 --> 0:44:43.320
<v Speaker 14>We'll see what happens.

0:44:43.840 --> 0:44:45.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Look, it's going to be interesting.

0:44:45.200 --> 0:44:46.480
<v Speaker 3>But I mean, I don't know how much that the

0:44:46.560 --> 0:44:48.360
<v Speaker 3>Royal family can shy away from this. I know that

0:44:48.400 --> 0:44:51.799
<v Speaker 3>they're notoriously quiet, but in this case there's a lot

0:44:51.840 --> 0:44:53.520
<v Speaker 3>coming to hand and I think that they're going to

0:44:53.560 --> 0:44:56.239
<v Speaker 3>have to say something eventually. And then there's this other

0:44:56.280 --> 0:44:59.239
<v Speaker 3>revelation from the former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown. He's

0:44:59.239 --> 0:45:02.320
<v Speaker 3>claimed that Andrew I have even used taxpayer funded jets

0:45:02.360 --> 0:45:03.760
<v Speaker 3>to mate with Jeffrey Epstein.

0:45:03.800 --> 0:45:07.600
<v Speaker 14>Emily, Yes, So the question now, Prince Andrew, these are

0:45:07.640 --> 0:45:10.720
<v Speaker 14>revelations in the papers again Prince Andrew using taxpayer funded

0:45:10.800 --> 0:45:15.200
<v Speaker 14>RIF jets military bases too to travel to see Jeffrey Epstein. Now,

0:45:15.280 --> 0:45:18.040
<v Speaker 14>the former Prime minister, Gordon Brown was Prime Minister for

0:45:18.080 --> 0:45:21.000
<v Speaker 14>a large section of that time three years. He's written

0:45:21.040 --> 0:45:23.920
<v Speaker 14>to police urging them to investigate this new information. The

0:45:24.040 --> 0:45:27.600
<v Speaker 14>key question were public resources used for these private meetings

0:45:27.640 --> 0:45:30.840
<v Speaker 14>with the convicted pedophil Jeffrey Epstein. Now there's no findings

0:45:31.120 --> 0:45:33.799
<v Speaker 14>of wrongdoing at this stage, but if public money is

0:45:33.840 --> 0:45:37.080
<v Speaker 14>involved Anika, it could raise serious questions, well more serious

0:45:37.160 --> 0:45:39.000
<v Speaker 14>questions about the misuse of office.

0:45:39.080 --> 0:45:39.600
<v Speaker 4>But it is.

0:45:39.600 --> 0:45:42.319
<v Speaker 14>Interesting though, I will say this, It is interesting that

0:45:42.360 --> 0:45:45.120
<v Speaker 14>Gordon Brown is saying these things now when he was

0:45:45.160 --> 0:45:49.000
<v Speaker 14>Prime Minister for nearly three years during that time. And

0:45:49.080 --> 0:45:52.080
<v Speaker 14>let's remember also that Gordon Brown is the man responsible

0:45:52.160 --> 0:45:55.920
<v Speaker 14>for bringing Lord Mandelson, who is also currently under police investigation,

0:45:55.960 --> 0:45:59.080
<v Speaker 14>although has not been charged or arrested, bringing him back

0:45:59.080 --> 0:46:01.840
<v Speaker 14>into government, giving him a life peerage, allowing him to

0:46:01.880 --> 0:46:05.000
<v Speaker 14>sit in the House of Laws and also return to Cabinet.

0:46:05.280 --> 0:46:07.240
<v Speaker 14>So it appears as though there's a lot of people

0:46:07.400 --> 0:46:10.400
<v Speaker 14>suddenly remembering things, and I wonder whether this is to

0:46:10.440 --> 0:46:12.200
<v Speaker 14>keep the heat of the current labor government.

0:46:12.440 --> 0:46:15.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, suddenly the memory has come back after all these years.

0:46:15.840 --> 0:46:19.080
<v Speaker 3>It's extraordinary, isn't it. Sarah Ferguson looks she's also in

0:46:19.120 --> 0:46:21.879
<v Speaker 3>broil in this. She exiled herself to the UAE once

0:46:21.920 --> 0:46:24.560
<v Speaker 3>all the revelations come to light, including emails at her

0:46:24.640 --> 0:46:27.000
<v Speaker 3>and Jeffrey Epstein had sent to each other. But it's

0:46:27.000 --> 0:46:29.560
<v Speaker 3>now been revealed she's spent time at a recovery clinic

0:46:29.560 --> 0:46:30.239
<v Speaker 3>in Switzerland.

0:46:30.239 --> 0:46:33.920
<v Speaker 14>Emily, Yes, so, as you say, she's being very much

0:46:33.920 --> 0:46:36.800
<v Speaker 14>scrutinized to for her past connections to Epstein.

0:46:36.840 --> 0:46:37.720
<v Speaker 2>We found out.

0:46:37.520 --> 0:46:39.400
<v Speaker 14>That, yes, for a long period she was trying to

0:46:39.480 --> 0:46:42.839
<v Speaker 14>keep a very low profile in Switzerland. Reports that she's

0:46:42.880 --> 0:46:47.360
<v Speaker 14>been spending time at the Paracelsus recovery clinic in Zurich, Switzerland,

0:46:47.560 --> 0:46:50.960
<v Speaker 14>which apparently cost thirteen thousand pounds a day. Now there

0:46:50.960 --> 0:46:53.920
<v Speaker 14>are questions, aren't there over how she managed to afford this,

0:46:54.440 --> 0:46:59.000
<v Speaker 14>considering her well documented financial woes. But she has previously

0:46:59.000 --> 0:47:02.000
<v Speaker 14>promoted the clinic I'd a bit on her social media platforms,

0:47:02.120 --> 0:47:04.680
<v Speaker 14>so it may well have been a freebie or indeed

0:47:04.719 --> 0:47:07.280
<v Speaker 14>paid for by one of her well connected friends.

0:47:08.320 --> 0:47:08.720
<v Speaker 4>Friends.

0:47:09.000 --> 0:47:10.840
<v Speaker 14>Some friends of hers are also talking to the papers.

0:47:10.840 --> 0:47:12.759
<v Speaker 14>Apparently there's a lot of sources out there saying that

0:47:12.800 --> 0:47:15.680
<v Speaker 14>she's very depressed, she thinks the whole world is out

0:47:15.719 --> 0:47:18.839
<v Speaker 14>to get her, that she's very very down, that lots

0:47:18.840 --> 0:47:21.680
<v Speaker 14>of people, including herself, are worried for her mental health.

0:47:22.440 --> 0:47:25.160
<v Speaker 14>But that also she doesn't appear to show any remorse.

0:47:25.840 --> 0:47:27.560
<v Speaker 14>So I'm not sure exactly where this is going to

0:47:27.600 --> 0:47:29.200
<v Speaker 14>go with Sarah Ferguson, but I think it's probably a

0:47:29.239 --> 0:47:30.680
<v Speaker 14>good thing that she's keeping a low profile.

0:47:30.880 --> 0:47:34.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Alva, you'd want to exile yourself to the UAA.

0:47:34.160 --> 0:47:35.440
<v Speaker 3>Put it that way, You would not want to be

0:47:35.440 --> 0:47:38.239
<v Speaker 3>anywhere that near the UK right now with all these revelations.

0:47:38.239 --> 0:47:41.600
<v Speaker 3>That's for sure fascinating, isn't it. Emily Carver, thank you

0:47:41.640 --> 0:47:44.200
<v Speaker 3>so much for your time, really appreciate it. Yeah, And

0:47:44.239 --> 0:47:46.359
<v Speaker 3>as I said, it just keeps getting worse and worse,

0:47:46.400 --> 0:47:47.040
<v Speaker 3>doesn't it?

0:47:47.080 --> 0:47:49.200
<v Speaker 4>Stay with me? Coming up, Danika's done of the Week.

0:47:54.080 --> 0:47:54.719
<v Speaker 4>Welcome back.

0:47:54.840 --> 0:47:57.160
<v Speaker 3>It is now time for Danika has done of the week,

0:47:57.280 --> 0:47:59.920
<v Speaker 3>and this week I'm giving it to the lovely Ladies

0:48:00.120 --> 0:48:04.960
<v Speaker 3>of the View in America, specifically Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar,

0:48:05.200 --> 0:48:07.880
<v Speaker 3>because both of them are in absolute panic, having a

0:48:08.080 --> 0:48:11.239
<v Speaker 3>meltdown of sorts after they were both listed in the

0:48:11.239 --> 0:48:12.160
<v Speaker 3>Epstein files.

0:48:12.160 --> 0:48:15.640
<v Speaker 15>Have a look and they find enough for evidence, and

0:48:15.800 --> 0:48:18.360
<v Speaker 15>really good evidence, because that list has a lot of

0:48:18.400 --> 0:48:20.960
<v Speaker 15>crazy names on it, and it's almost like a way

0:48:21.000 --> 0:48:23.240
<v Speaker 15>to muddy the waters so that you say, oh, well,

0:48:23.320 --> 0:48:25.799
<v Speaker 15>you know Whoopy's on the list, right, and so am

0:48:25.800 --> 0:48:28.680
<v Speaker 15>I I think why? Because wait, let me finish this,

0:48:28.840 --> 0:48:31.440
<v Speaker 15>blaz We're on the list because we were at a

0:48:31.480 --> 0:48:34.600
<v Speaker 15>party or a wedding or something that somebody might have been.

0:48:35.080 --> 0:48:38.480
<v Speaker 4>That's what I found out anyway, just a party, just

0:48:38.520 --> 0:48:40.440
<v Speaker 4>a wedding. You know, it doesn't matter.

0:48:40.280 --> 0:48:43.640
<v Speaker 3>Not that I'm suggesting any wrongdoing by either of those women,

0:48:43.680 --> 0:48:46.200
<v Speaker 3>but what it points to is these women they have

0:48:46.280 --> 0:48:48.920
<v Speaker 3>been calling for Donald Trump's head over the Epstein.

0:48:48.520 --> 0:48:51.480
<v Speaker 4>Files for the past few years. And what does Donald

0:48:51.480 --> 0:48:51.880
<v Speaker 4>Trump do.

0:48:52.000 --> 0:48:55.520
<v Speaker 3>He releases the Epstein files, and the Ladies of the View, Well,

0:48:55.680 --> 0:48:57.719
<v Speaker 3>they got nothing else to talk about, do they? They're

0:48:57.760 --> 0:49:01.279
<v Speaker 3>beside themselves because Donald Trump did what the Democrats did not,

0:49:01.680 --> 0:49:02.760
<v Speaker 3>So what on earth a whoopee.

0:49:02.800 --> 0:49:03.680
<v Speaker 4>Enjoy going to talk.

0:49:03.560 --> 0:49:06.040
<v Speaker 3>About now, good grief, all the very best of them.

0:49:06.320 --> 0:49:08.600
<v Speaker 3>Thank you very much for your company this evening. I'll

0:49:08.640 --> 0:49:11.239
<v Speaker 3>be back again at eight pm on Friday for Opinionated.

0:49:11.480 --> 0:49:14.320

<v Speaker 4>Good night,
