WEBVTT - The Late Debate | 12 November 0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:05.239 Late, Welcome the late pays. 0:00:06.760 --> 0:00:08.560 Well, good evening, It's great to have your company. I'm 0:00:08.640 --> 0:00:11.200 James Macpherson with Liz Storer and filling in for Caleb 0:00:11.240 --> 0:00:12.760 Bond Joe Hildebrand. 0:00:12.920 --> 0:00:13.480 Coming up. 0:00:13.800 --> 0:00:17.520 Beach goers in Western Australia amazed as an emperor penguin 0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:20.360 turns up on the sand three and a half thousand 0:00:20.480 --> 0:00:23.680 kilometers from home. We'll show you that footage a little later. 0:00:24.000 --> 0:00:26.079 Plus when we look at the papers, you'll be shocked 0:00:26.079 --> 0:00:29.560 at just how much our public service has expanded since 0:00:29.640 --> 0:00:32.360 labor came to power. The Australian newspaper is running with 0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:36.040 that tomorrow, and good news for regional Australians with ex 0:00:36.280 --> 0:00:40.640 Rex Airlines being thrown a lifeline to keep them flying. 0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:43.880 All of that when we look at what's making news tomorrow. 0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:47.279 But first, most of us are pretty much aware that 0:00:47.320 --> 0:00:50.919 the whole climate change activism is a bit of a circus. 0:00:51.280 --> 0:00:54.240 What we may not have appreciated just how many clowns 0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:58.480 are involved. A News Limited investigation has found that some 0:00:58.560 --> 0:01:02.120 of the loudest bed when it comes to rising sea 0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:07.559 levels have actually been investing in waterfront properties. Prime among 0:01:07.600 --> 0:01:11.120 them is a Legras spender, the Teal who, according to 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:16.240 the investigation, owns three at risk waterfront properties in New 0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:21.400 South Wales. Tony Burke, the Government Minister owns two in Tasmania. 0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:24.800 And then there's Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen, who's got 0:01:24.840 --> 0:01:28.520 waterfront property in Victoria. I think it is it's near 0:01:28.560 --> 0:01:32.400 the ocean, as does teal Zoe Daniel. And of course 0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:36.360 then there's the Prime Minister Anthony Elberizi, who recently bought 0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:39.240 a beachfront home for four and a bit million dollars. Now, 0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:41.480 to be fair, he did buy on the top of 0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:42.000 a cliff. 0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:44.520 His polling numbers have gone off. 0:01:45.000 --> 0:01:47.160 Of reseere you are coming around. 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:50.760 I'm not sure many of these waterfront properties are going 0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:53.720 to go under, but I tell you all of these 0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:57.320 people's credibility is at the bottom of the ocean. As 0:01:57.480 --> 0:02:02.680 Nationals Senator Matt Canavan pointed out brilliantly, he said, you 0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:05.840 know you've met a radical climate activist if they have 0:02:05.960 --> 0:02:10.160 lots of frequent flyer points, own multiple coastal properties and 0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:12.440 they love nothing more than going out for a lovely 0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:14.760 nine marble score Wagyu steak. 0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:16.680 There are only two options here. 0:02:17.160 --> 0:02:20.079 Either these people think we're all stuffed anyway, or they 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:22.799 don't believe the underlying science. 0:02:23.160 --> 0:02:26.520 I think it's the latter. Joe and Liz I think 0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:27.640 he's right. 0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:30.839 Indeed, well, they obviously don't believe what they're saying. There 0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:32.680 can be no other interpretation. 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:34.720 That's it laid there. 0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:37.840 You don't believe the science, why are you science deniers? 0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:40.640 Are you guys climate change deniers? Why else would you 0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:42.919 buy these waterfront properties? 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:44.040 Although it does. 0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:46.760 Bear mentioning that in quite a few of the stats 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:51.200 also listed with regard to these particular beachfronts, a lot 0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:55.240 of them aren't supposed to be underwater till say, two thousand, 0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:58.440 one hundred, So maybe they just figure, well, it's not 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:00.880 going to happen in my lifetime, so I'm just got 0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:05.880 to enjoy the scenery. But obviously this is sheer hippocryphate, 0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:08.760 see when it's being done by the very people who 0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:12.320 are implementing the policies that mean that you've got to 0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:16.320 suck on soggy paper straws to save the planet. You 0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:19.919 should be paying some sort of carbon offset. If you're flying, 0:03:20.400 --> 0:03:24.320 please do buy a car that doesn't require petrol, because 0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:26.760 that's supposed to help. Even though we've explained to you 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:31.160 ad nauseum, how it's actually not better for the environment, etc. 0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:31.799 Etc. 0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:34.720 And so on, Please pay ten times more on your 0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:35.520 energy bill. 0:03:35.880 --> 0:03:39.160 The list goes on. So the irony is that if. 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:41.800 This was just an everyday climate activist who said that 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:44.520 they were passionate about the cause, but that wasn't reflected 0:03:44.560 --> 0:03:45.760 in their everyday life. 0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:46.680 That's one thing. 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:50.280 These are the people who make the rules, who are 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:55.640 paying out on these fossil fuel companies and everything called gas, 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:59.800 everything oil is now evil and we are seeing this 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:03.800 massive transfer of wealth. Whenever you see a transfer of wealth, 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:07.520 these massive, it is time to ask serious questions because 0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:10.560 it's never good. You only see it during wartime, you 0:04:10.720 --> 0:04:11.840 only see it during. 0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:13.880 A pandemic, and you definitely. 0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:16.960 See it when we are talking about upending the energy 0:04:17.080 --> 0:04:20.200 source for the entire Western wealth. 0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:23.520 You've messed another possibility, though, There's a third possibility, which 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:26.400 is maybe these guys really do believe the science and 0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:28.360 they're desperately trying to shore up the value of their 0:04:28.400 --> 0:04:30.960 real estate assets. Maybe it's just complete and out of 0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:34.560 self interest. Maybe these guys are the ultimate neoliberals. That's 0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:39.360 just yes, pure pure profit. My property is being threatened 0:04:39.560 --> 0:04:44.320 my potential return on investment is being threatened. Therefore I must. 0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:46.920 Get emissions down to save That's right. 0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:49.040 They're trying to get the entire world to lower its 0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:52.800 emissions so that their absolute beachfront property doesn't lose a 0:04:52.800 --> 0:04:54.839 couple of hun Gg's in value. 0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:56.280 I'm sure that's much better, Joe. 0:04:56.760 --> 0:05:01.360 No, but it's a third possibility that affect again there 0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:04.200 if there were you know, if they were really smart, 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:06.840 the rest of the country, you know, I can understand, 0:05:06.839 --> 0:05:08.640 but the Sydney side is I'm a bit disappointed with 0:05:08.680 --> 0:05:11.279 because if they were really smart, they'd be buying houses 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:14.480 one block back from the beach for a song and 0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:15.320 they're just waiting. 0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:20.920 Well, they're not the only clowns involved in this whole caper. 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:25.040 We've just learned that Australia has a climate ambassador. 0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:27.360 You've only just learned that I didn't realize we had. 0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:30.600 Because he's such an important issue, mac that we can't 0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:34.400 just have a climate change minister I e. Chris Bowen foreigner, 0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:37.960 we mean an ambassador as well, because if nothing else, 0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:41.919 it's to massage the importance of this issue into. 0:05:41.600 --> 0:05:42.640 The public psyche. 0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:46.080 So you go, if they've got an ambassador and a minister. 0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:49.520 I mean, this must be really serious. Drop what you're 0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:52.640 doing and address this issue. But as you're about to 0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:54.720 tell us, this hasn't gone so. 0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:55.960 Well in recent days. 0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:59.760 Given recent revelations as to what said ambassador has. 0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:01.680 Been up well, I mean, I think we can all 0:06:01.760 --> 0:06:04.520 guess what said ambassador has been up to. She's been 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:08.039 flying all over the world, because apparently the fight to 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:11.880 reduce emissions requires a climate ambassador to fly all over 0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:15.960 the world and therefore be primarily responsible for increasing emissions. 0:06:16.040 --> 0:06:19.159 Kristin Tilley was appointed by the Albanesi government to be 0:06:19.279 --> 0:06:24.360 our climate diplomat, and she, over the last two years 0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:28.120 has undertaken twenty international trips at a cost of two 0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:31.719 hundred and seventy five thousand dollars to the taxpayers. It's 0:06:32.000 --> 0:06:35.440 difficult business being a climate diplomat. She's had to go 0:06:35.480 --> 0:06:37.479 to New York for nine days at a cost of 0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:41.760 twenty seven thousand dollars, to Malta, to Switzerland, to Denmark. 0:06:41.360 --> 0:06:42.680 To Belgium, to Fiji. 0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:45.360 She had to go to the Mold Dives of course, 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:47.160 to Vanuatu into the UK. 0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:49.159 It amazes me that they never have to go to 0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:51.200 No Bangladesh. 0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:51.039 Sure. 0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:54.240 Is like, we're right here. 0:06:54.360 --> 0:06:56.479 Come on, I have to go to those places. 0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:57.880 Give us COP twenty seven. 0:06:57.960 --> 0:07:01.159 But don't worry it'll be okay, because I'm sure any 0:07:01.160 --> 0:07:04.039 moment now the Albanezy government will shut down one hundred 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:08.000 fossil fuel projects and a thousand farms to offset her 0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:14.200 carbon emissions. James Stevens, who's the opposition waste spokesperson, said quote, 0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:17.520 it's staggering to see how much carbon dioxide the Australian 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:21.680 government is emitting. In pursuit of reducing carbon dioxide emissions. 0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:24.800 Our ambassador for climate change could be setting an example, 0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:29.200 but instead is spewing out fuel emissions on monthly international trips. 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:34.200 The irony and hypocrisy is astounding and scandalous. Joe, have 0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:36.680 these people not heard of zoom or I don't? 0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:40.360 Also, COVID is airborne? What are you doing out in 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.440 the world? Come on, guys, I heard that at the 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:45.920 Marxist conference. Seriously, they're all still marked up. Literally, it's 0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:47.960 an anegi. It's like Marxists, it's. 0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:52.680 A physical explain why we need a ambassador. 0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:56.200 What I have that absolutely no idea? Like you, I 0:07:56.240 --> 0:07:59.600 had no idea, we actually had one. I suspect the 0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:02.600 PM himself probably didn't know that we had one. If 0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:05.840 you look at the if you look at the quotes 0:08:06.040 --> 0:08:08.920 in the article, it always says, you know, the government 0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:11.360 announced that, the government said this, and that the government 0:08:11.360 --> 0:08:14.480 said this. Now, any announcement that a government ever makes 0:08:14.880 --> 0:08:18.120 that is seen to be even remotely good, the PM 0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:20.640 takes right. So the PM takes every single announcement, every 0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:25.000 single portfolio that the government thinks is good news or 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:28.960 labor if it was in opposition thinks is a good policy. Right, 0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:30.720 and that's the deal, and that's fair enough, and that's 0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:32.920 as it should be. The PM is nowhere near this. 0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:35.360 I had no idea that I reckon. This was something 0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:39.360 that must have been announced on a very low key basis, 0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:42.760 probably very targeted digitally in seats where they were worried 0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:45.880 about the Greens winning, like those three Brisbane seats and 0:08:45.920 --> 0:08:47.840 inn City seats where they're trying to shore up their 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:52.640 climate credentials. So this is an amazing kind of debut, 0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:55.600 if you like, of the our new climate change ambassador 0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:58.760 sort of striding onto the stage. The big question for 0:08:58.840 --> 0:09:02.120 me is were any of these flights business class? If 0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:05.640 you divide, if you divide two hundred and sixty two 0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:08.520 hundred and fifty seven thousand by twenty you get about 0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:11.600 thirteen thousand bucks per trip. Now I'm not sure if 0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:15.000 this includes staff she's taken with her or accommodation or 0:09:15.040 --> 0:09:18.880 accommodation obviously would include acommodation, but again, you know that 0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:21.920 does seem to be quite a bit of money. And 0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:24.400 if you are flying business class, and of course anyone 0:09:24.400 --> 0:09:27.400 who is in the Chairman's lounge, and if this ambassador 0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:30.600 is in the chairman's lounge, she would get automatically upgraded 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:35.839 to business class if there was a seat available. I'm 0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:38.400 pretty sure Chairbell chairman's lounge like to get all the 0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:40.560 most important people in. So either she's not very important 0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:42.320 and no one actually knows who she is, or she 0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:44.400 isn't she's in the Chairman's I don't know, but you 0:09:44.440 --> 0:09:46.719 would get an automatic upgrade to business class whenever in 0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:49.079 the chairman's lounge. As we know, as so many MPs 0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:52.160 on both sides of politics have been doing, including a 0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:55.600 few on the left, and according to a number of websites, 0:09:55.600 --> 0:10:00.000 including one called Climate Action Accelerator, a business class seat 0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:04.680 it emits or has a carbon footprint of three times 0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:09.200 what an economy class set does. So if any of 0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:15.000 these flights involved business class travel or business class upgrades, 0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:19.000 then the climate change ambassador would be increasing her carbon 0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:23.760 footprint three times what it would have been if she 0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:25.000 had just sat up in the back of pie and 0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:27.839 I I said, anyone, who what is she. 0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:28.720 Supposed to do? 0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:31.480 Though, because we know that you can't fight climate change 0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:37.000 without attempting these lavish events or well fromits these jamborees 0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:39.720 where they all get together and push down further on 0:10:39.800 --> 0:10:44.120 the little guy, on you and me. You can't fight 0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:50.200 climate change without undertaking some of the most carbon intense activities. 0:10:49.720 --> 0:10:50.760 On the face of the planet. 0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:53.720 Ladies and gentlemen, and just lastly on this story, you've 0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:56.920 got to appreciate that we aren't supposed to know this. 0:10:57.280 --> 0:10:58.559 We only found. 0:10:58.240 --> 0:11:04.640 Out because James Stephens said opposite opposition government waste spokesman, 0:11:04.840 --> 0:11:06.840 can we make that a minister next time I think 0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:07.839 a waste. 0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:10.800 And they're actually doing the waste, we know. 0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:12.840 We need one in government. 0:11:14.880 --> 0:11:19.120 I mean he put in an FI freedom of information. 0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:22.280 He wanted to know just what is this woman doing? 0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:24.600 We don't know what her salary is, but he wanted 0:11:24.640 --> 0:11:27.520 to find out how much bung we were bang we 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:30.480 were getting for our buck and found out in fact 0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:33.800 she's just massively spurging on all this nonsense that's not 0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:34.880 doing anything. 0:11:35.040 --> 0:11:37.240 You got it right the first time. This there's no bang. 0:11:37.280 --> 0:11:38.000 There's a lot of bug. 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:40.840 There's a lot of bug for our buck and exit 0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:41.880 of bungs. 0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:44.440 No, there's no bug for your bong in the green 0:11:44.480 --> 0:11:48.800 industry anyway. And speaking of greens, by the way, all 0:11:48.880 --> 0:11:52.080 things greeny, this is another look just from my hometown. God, 0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:53.679 I love this guy, Chris Means. Have you ever heard 0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:55.760 of him, Liz fantastic blug. I think you'd really like 0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:59.000 him if you ever stopped talking about baby it would 0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:02.120 incredibly Hands've got the best cheek bones in Australia and 0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:05.000 is also the Premier of New South Wales and they 0:12:05.040 --> 0:12:09.640 have just announced yet more penalties, more penalties for climate 0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:13.880 activists who disrupt major public infrastructure. This time they're coming 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:16.840 at them for the trains and of course we know 0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:20.280 that they try to block coal trains bringing coal from 0:12:20.280 --> 0:12:22.600 the port of Newcastle for example, to the rest of 0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:26.160 the state and the country. And this is what Attorney 0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:30.360 General Michael Day had to say about these noodle armed little. 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:34.319 Nimbi's there is a right to peaceful assembly in New 0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:36.720 South Wales. We want to preserve that there is a 0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:39.760 right to protest in New South Wales. We want to 0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:44.040 preserve that Chaining yourself to a rail line, gluing yourself 0:12:44.080 --> 0:12:48.200 to Stonycreek Road, hanging off the Harbor bridge, blocking the 0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:51.800 Harbor tunnel with the truck, these are all species of 0:12:51.880 --> 0:12:54.440 behavior that we say on behalf of the good citizens 0:12:54.480 --> 0:12:56.840 of New South Wales cannot be tolerated. 0:12:58.120 --> 0:12:59.640 I have no idea what he said just then, because 0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:01.439 I was looking at the guy behind him. God, he's 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:04.680 so handsome. Anyway, You've now got a twenty two thousand 0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:09.040 dollars fine for anyone who blocks trains or railway lines 0:13:09.320 --> 0:13:14.040 and they will be introduced into Parliament on Tuesday today. 0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:17.440 That's right, That's exactly right. And also you will have 0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:21.160 potentially a two years jail time and it will apply 0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:24.199 across the state. And get this, it's also going to 0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:26.000 apply to light rail services. 0:13:26.240 --> 0:13:26.880 No way. 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:30.680 Look, I do tain yourself to tram cactus green boy. 0:13:30.880 --> 0:13:34.360 I don't quite get this one, because the current punishment 0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:37.479 for you trying to stop a train, which they successfully 0:13:37.480 --> 0:13:40.400 did for two weeks back in June July and again 0:13:40.440 --> 0:13:44.160 in September nine, activists stopped a cold train because that's 0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:47.520 how they've been told they can save the planet. So 0:13:47.800 --> 0:13:51.640 the current punishment is up to two years in jail already, 0:13:52.000 --> 0:13:56.400 So the Men's government has just slapped a possible twenty 0:13:56.440 --> 0:13:59.280 two thousand dollars fine on top of that. So now 0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:02.520 if you are give of set offence, you will either 0:14:02.840 --> 0:14:05.760 or go to jail for a maximum of two years 0:14:06.080 --> 0:14:09.960 and or pay out twenty two thousand dollars. I don't 0:14:10.040 --> 0:14:13.160 see the point in adding a fee here because goodness 0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:16.520 knows that the vast majority of these activists are. 0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:17.840 Either unemployed or. 0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:21.600 Don't have a wage worth speaking of. They're not exactly 0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:26.040 wealthy people that turn out and take up these kinds 0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:28.040 of extremist shenanigans. 0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:30.600 We've seen this before. 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:33.880 And say, look, you can slap me with a fine, 0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:36.080 but goodness, I'm. 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:38.520 Like trying to sue someone who's bankrupt. 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:41.920 Fun going after them, making them rock up to court 0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:46.000 and be or miserable. Farm has to bail them out. 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:48.720 As you can imagine, the climate catastrophists are up in 0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:53.320 arms about these new penalties. Environmentalists have described it as 0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:58.040 a rampage against free speech. No one's stopping their free speech. 0:14:58.080 --> 0:14:59.800 They're just saying you can't say what you want to 0:14:59.840 --> 0:15:01.960 say in the middle of a train track. 0:15:02.000 --> 0:15:05.200 Although there was a terribly embarrassing incident where a group 0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:10.040 of environmental activists tried to block jazz saxophonist John Coltrane, 0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:14.320 and that no one knows who John Coltrane is. 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:16.080 I'm not familiar with that, Jesse. 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:19.920 Assuming we need a golf clap, we need something you. 0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:20.520 Have never heard of it. 0:15:20.640 --> 0:15:24.040 Charlie Parker, Billy Joel Elton, John. 0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:28.720 My god New South Wales Green spokesperson Kobe Schetty, she 0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:32.640 said it was a shameful attack on the right to protest. 0:15:32.720 --> 0:15:35.720 But this, no one's impeding their freedom of speech. No 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:38.760 one is stopping them from protesting. You want them to 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:41.680 stand right by the railway line, just exactly. 0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:45.040 The rules around protesting are actually very simple. I leart 0:15:45.080 --> 0:15:47.680 this in my master's Degree of Human Rights. Basically, if 0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:50.840 you're not stopping anyone from going about their lawful business, 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:54.840 legal protest, go right ahead. If you are stopping people 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:57.400 from going about their lawful business, like I don't know, 0:15:57.680 --> 0:16:00.000 a train staying on the tracks and just ending up 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:03.360 where it's supposed to go, not legal protest and you 0:16:03.560 --> 0:16:06.960 will be penalized as you should be. To the States 0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:12.400 now where everyone's not favorite. Ex Prime Minister, as we know, 0:16:12.800 --> 0:16:16.520 is Australia's ambassador to the United States of America. 0:16:16.680 --> 0:16:19.560 Rudd, even before he was given. 0:16:19.600 --> 0:16:24.480 The post of ambassadorship to our closest and dearest and 0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:29.800 most valuable ally, had already called Trump a political liability, 0:16:29.840 --> 0:16:32.400 a problem for the world. Are traited to the West. 0:16:32.760 --> 0:16:35.160 The list goes on, So. 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:37.000 It's pretty bad news for the guy. 0:16:37.600 --> 0:16:40.800 Now that this little clip from a webinar he once 0:16:40.920 --> 0:16:45.200 did with an Indian MP has come back to light 0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:49.680 to remind everyone he's no friend to President Trump. 0:16:51.000 --> 0:16:54.000 The United States in the last four years has been 0:16:54.040 --> 0:16:58.000 run by a village idios. People have seen China continued 0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:02.680 continuing to be competent international state craft and the United 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:06.760 States increasingly incompetent and international state craft under Trump. 0:17:08.080 --> 0:17:12.320 Well, Albanizi has come out defending his friend Rudd for 0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:14.480 the second time in two weeks. 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:17.120 There was speculation before. 0:17:16.760 --> 0:17:19.359 Trump won the election that Rudd should go in the 0:17:19.400 --> 0:17:23.359 event Trump did win the election, given all of the 0:17:23.400 --> 0:17:26.879 disparaging things he's said about the guy, it stands to 0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:30.440 reason we can do better for our closest ally, it 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:32.840 would be really nice to have someone over there who 0:17:33.040 --> 0:17:37.639 actually backed the now president, leader of the free world. 0:17:37.760 --> 0:17:41.680 I don't know what Albanize is thinking doing this, because 0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:46.359 the more he defends Rudd, which is quite indefensible. At 0:17:46.400 --> 0:17:50.840 this point, Trump has won. Now we're past the speculation stage. 0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:55.000 Stop defending him and stop waiting for Trump to actually 0:17:55.040 --> 0:17:56.960 call us and say, hey. 0:17:57.200 --> 0:17:58.840 Heard this guy's pretty nasty. 0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:02.040 As he told fera weeks ago, Hurd is not the 0:18:02.040 --> 0:18:03.480 brightest bulb either. 0:18:03.720 --> 0:18:06.240 That was a direct Trumpian quote. 0:18:06.520 --> 0:18:09.600 We also heard from Lara Trump, his daughter in Laura, 0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:13.040 just days before the election, saying that if Trump won, 0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:16.400 he would be looking to Australia to appoint somebody else. 0:18:16.440 --> 0:18:19.400 So why are we waiting for the embarrassment of having 0:18:19.480 --> 0:18:21.760 the Trump administration pick up the phone to us and 0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:24.720 say this guy is clearly not fit for purpose. I'm 0:18:24.760 --> 0:18:28.880 president now, Why aren't we doing the honorable thing and saying, yes, 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:34.199 it's quite obvious this is not fit anymore. Let's just 0:18:34.359 --> 0:18:37.960 change things up and send someone who is worthy of 0:18:38.200 --> 0:18:40.840 the most important ambassadorship that we have. 0:18:41.160 --> 0:18:43.840 Yeah, Look, I think that's a very fair question. I think, 0:18:44.520 --> 0:18:47.000 firstly in terms of the sort of personal politics of it, 0:18:47.240 --> 0:18:49.359 Anthony Albinezi is someone who's very loyal and we've sent 0:18:49.480 --> 0:18:50.400 him lose political skill. 0:18:50.720 --> 0:18:54.040 We don't care about that. We care about our eric. 0:18:54.080 --> 0:18:55.400 If you want to know why he's doing it, I'm 0:18:55.400 --> 0:18:56.680 just telling you that that's part of the room. 0:18:56.800 --> 0:18:59.080 That's another one. 0:18:59.160 --> 0:19:01.160 Another one is that part of the reason that Kevin 0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:04.680 Rudd was sent to the US and made ambassador was 0:19:04.720 --> 0:19:06.639 to stop him from tweeting. This is a guy that 0:19:06.760 --> 0:19:08.560 was all over Twitter like a cheap suit. He was 0:19:08.560 --> 0:19:12.080 calling for Murdock Royal commission, he was settling scores with 0:19:12.160 --> 0:19:14.800 old enemies. And again it's part of the kind. 0:19:14.600 --> 0:19:17.760 Of doesn't all of that scream to you bad choice? 0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:22.040 And then in terms so I suppose you in deciding 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:26.320 whether or not to sack him or bring him recall him, 0:19:26.480 --> 0:19:29.679 the question is by doing that, do you end up 0:19:29.720 --> 0:19:34.240 making these historic Twitter might seem worse than they are 0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:37.080 and end up just roaring attention to it and making 0:19:37.119 --> 0:19:41.720 them seem so agreeable than they are possible that the 0:19:41.760 --> 0:19:45.879 only possible recourse is to withdraw the ambassador. So I 0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:47.479 think what the government will be thinking. I don't know, 0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:50.879 but well I do know, I know everything, but what 0:19:50.920 --> 0:19:54.160 the government would be thinking. At what Albanezi would be thinking. 0:19:54.200 --> 0:19:55.560 And this is not based on what he's told me, 0:19:55.600 --> 0:19:57.960 but he would be thinking, right. I just want this 0:19:58.040 --> 0:20:01.359 to blow over, these deleted tweets. Trump has had that 0:20:01.440 --> 0:20:04.160 many people saying that many main things about him over 0:20:04.200 --> 0:20:05.359 the years. 0:20:05.000 --> 0:20:10.359 It's not an ambassador who has the massive status and 0:20:10.480 --> 0:20:11.600 enjoys all the benefits. 0:20:12.320 --> 0:20:15.520 Very stupid major before he was ambassador. 0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:19.000 You're suggesting that they don't want to make Trump is 0:20:19.040 --> 0:20:22.960 the most destructive president in history. He's dragged democracy and 0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:26.040 America through the mud. Seem worse than it is. 0:20:27.000 --> 0:20:29.359 Again, and these are really stupid comments, and they actually 0:20:29.400 --> 0:20:33.160 show the man's irony of people who have the humors 0:20:33.160 --> 0:20:34.760 to think that they're the smartest people in the room 0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:37.720 and smarter than everybody else actually be too stupid to 0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:40.640 think or realize that Donald Trump is actually But the. 0:20:40.560 --> 0:20:43.600 Problem the gummy is Albanese. You mentioned irony. 0:20:43.640 --> 0:20:46.080 I think the problem is a whole political culture that thought, oh, 0:20:46.080 --> 0:20:48.240 Donald Trump's dead forever, we can say whatever we want. 0:20:48.280 --> 0:20:51.600 Well, that's true, but back in twenty seventeen, right, Anthony 0:20:51.600 --> 0:20:54.720 Elberze said, and we've seen this on video over the 0:20:54.760 --> 0:20:57.359 last few days. I think it's a concern the leader 0:20:57.400 --> 0:20:59.920 of the free world. He's talking about Donald Trump. Think 0:21:00.160 --> 0:21:02.760 you can conduct policy through one hundred and forty characters 0:21:02.800 --> 0:21:05.960
