But first let's bring in Sophie Ellsworth, media 0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:21.280 writer The Australian. Sophie, you've reported in the Australian Today that. 0:01:21.280 --> 0:01:23.520 The ABC the board. 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:27.399 There is in crisis over Laura Tingle's weekend out burst, 0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:32.679 a story you broke in The Australian. Some remarkable comments 0:01:32.720 --> 0:01:37.000 at the Sydney Writers Festive. Always you call Australia racist country, 0:01:37.600 --> 0:01:41.479 unleashed a bile philed die tribe against the Opposition leader 0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:46.000 Peter Dutton, accusing him of giving license to people to 0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:47.880 engage in racial abuse. 0:01:49.080 --> 0:01:49.880 What more can you. 0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:53.000 Tell me about what's happening at the ABC and the 0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:54.400 board's response. 0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:54.960 We'll read to. 0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:58.320 These were extraordinary comments when I went to the Sydney's 0:01:58.400 --> 0:02:04.200 Writers Festival on Sunday to hear Laura Tingle unleash on 0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:07.680 Peter Dutton and call Australia a racist country. Now this 0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:13.120 is causing issues within the ABC. I know from sources 0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:16.640 within the ABC that there has been discussions among board 0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:21.240 members about this problem, and they're due to meet in June. 0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:23.600 But now it's. 0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:28.000 Under consideration whether they bring forward this discussion about Laura 0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:30.800 Tingle rather than wait till the board meeting in June. 0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:33.720 But rechil this is a problem because not only is 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:37.720 she their most high profile political correspondent at the ABC, 0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:41.480 she is on the board herself. So if they have 0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:44.720 a board meeting and discuss matters relating to her. 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:46.760 She has to recuse herself. 0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:48.079 I mean, this is a problem. 0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:52.360 Does another staff appointed board member step in place of 0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:54.960 her or they know one day because she. 0:02:55.000 --> 0:02:57.400 Was voted into that role, she's in a five. 0:02:57.240 --> 0:03:00.880 Year term, she's twelve months in and already this is 0:03:00.960 --> 0:03:04.440 causing headaches for them. But Rita, this is where Kim Williams. 0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:07.720 He is the new chair. He only started in March, 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:11.360 and as many people who know Kim know, he's not 0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:14.920 one to hold back. So I have put questions to 0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:17.519 him about this, but he has not responded. 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.000 But I can't imagine he's too thrilled about this. 0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:24.079 Well, the ABC is very upset with your reporting, all 0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:27.760 the facts you are sharing with the audience, and they're 0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:31.800 disputing that there is any sort of crisis at board level. 0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:32.920 What's your response to that. 0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:36.040 Well, they can do that, Rita, but that is not 0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:39.160 the case. They can put out their statements. I went 0:03:39.200 --> 0:03:41.520 to them yesterday with a series of questions. 0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:42.960 They gave me no comment. 0:03:43.280 --> 0:03:46.320 They've had ample time to respond to questions and they 0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:49.960 did not, you know, on this whole thing that started 0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:52.960 on Sunday. Mind you, I question them on Sunday about 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:55.480 it as well. So I stand by my reporting. 0:03:55.960 --> 0:04:01.480 Now you called Laura Tingle the ABC's highest profile political correspondent, 0:04:02.080 --> 0:04:05.160 I would argue she is a commentator, So her comments 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:08.480 about whatever she thinks of Australia, whatever she thinks of 0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:12.280 Peter Dutton, her what sound to me like these paranoid 0:04:12.360 --> 0:04:16.520 fantasies of migrants being abused at Open for inspections because 0:04:16.560 --> 0:04:19.520 Peter Dutton dared to point out that when you have 0:04:19.680 --> 0:04:22.160 record number of migrants coming in, of course it's going 0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:25.839 to add to the housing crisis. But she is not 0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:28.680 a correspondent, She's a commentator. And those lines of the 0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:32.400 ABC between opinion, which is what this program is, and 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:35.479 strictly news reporting are completely blurred. 0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:36.600 I would argue there. 0:04:36.440 --> 0:04:38.520 Are no lines, and I think we saw that. 0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:43.479 With the Voice the referendum, where we had so much 0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:48.360 reporting from the ABC supposedly news reporting, impartial news reporting 0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:51.000 that was pro yes activism. 0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:54.800 But Rita, she is a journalist at the ABC. 0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:57.960 Now she does do analysis, which is what is commentary. 0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:03.080 But she's sitting there interview Peter Dutton, she's interviewing Anthony Alberzi. 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:06.520 She does reports on the Seven thirty programs. 0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:09.200 So if they want to try and argue, or if 0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:11.080 anyone wants to try and argue that she's not a 0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:13.599 journalist she's a commentator. 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:17.040 That is not the case the ABC. She is a journalist. 0:05:17.120 --> 0:05:20.480 She is their political correspondent and she reports not only 0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:24.240 you know, political reports, but she interviews people and I 0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:25.600 think that's journalists. 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:30.000 Now we saw some more warped reporting from the ABC. 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:31.520 Again, this is news coverage. 0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:34.120 It's not commentary, analysis, opinion, what do you want to 0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:36.240 call It is supposed to be news coverage. 0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:38.760 And they've been called out for this. 0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:42.360 Because it is just a bizarre way to describe her 0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:48.279 mass firing rockets into all across Israel, including Tel Aviv. 0:05:48.680 --> 0:05:53.080 The ABC called it a show of resilience. 0:05:52.839 --> 0:05:57.839 More than seven months into Israel's massive asc and ground offensive. 0:05:58.040 --> 0:05:59.960 A show of resilience. 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:04.000 It's just really strange words to describe the actions of 0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:08.280 a terror group raining rockets down on civilians. 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:10.320 Now, another front. 0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:13.440 Page exclusive from you, this time on Channel nine. Today 0:06:13.560 --> 0:06:18.279 CEO Mike Sneezebe was the one to sign off on 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:21.559 that million dollar payout to form a news boss starn Wig. 0:06:21.600 --> 0:06:24.640 The network has also claimed that nine chairmen and former 0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:27.880 treasurer Pett Costello played no role in the payout. 0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:30.440 What else can you tell us about this story? 0:06:30.440 --> 0:06:34.320 This just seems to be rolling along and gathering momentum 0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:34.880 each day. 0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:38.200 Well, Rita, this story is far from over. 0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:42.960 It's really quite extraordinary that Nine are saying Mike Sneezeby 0:06:43.320 --> 0:06:46.680 ticked off Darren Wick's payout. Now we have reported at 0:06:46.680 --> 0:06:50.080 The Australian that he got a payout of around one 0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:53.120 million dollars. Now this comes at a time when all 0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:58.400 media companies, including Nine Entertainment, are under financial pressure. But 0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:01.279 the fallout is continued into deep and there is so 0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:05.159 much unrest in Nine. My phone has been going running 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:08.320 hot since we broke this story last week about the 0:07:08.400 --> 0:07:12.160 allegation and report against Darren Wick that started this whole thing. 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:17.240 But to date, Peter Costello, the chair of nine, has 0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:18.080 not spoken. 0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:19.920 Has it been blindsided here? 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:23.120 Is it feasible that the chair doesn't know about a 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:24.720 million dollar payout? 0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:28.480 Rita? I would find that incredibly hard to believe. 0:07:29.520 --> 0:07:33.640 But the issue here is not just management, it's at 0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:36.880 board level, it's the staff on the ground. This is 0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:39.800 right through Channel nine. They have an enormous problem on 0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:43.120 their hands. Now they announced yesterday Mike Sneezey announced there's 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:47.360 going to be an external independent review into the conduct 0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:51.880 and behavior at nine. But I think his tenure is 0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:55.160 in jeopardy. I mean, these stories are not stopping. These 0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:59.960 allegations and claims against staff, including Darren Wick, mainly Darren Wick, 0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:01.560 are not going away. 0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:07.200 And the new news boss at nine, Fiona Dia, has 0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:09.960 come out and said that there is a culture of. 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:12.360 Power games of the network. 0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:16.840 The Sydney Morning Heralds reported that Starfiell, that former boss 0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:22.200 Star and Week has created this culture of ghosting, belittling 0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:25.760 and favoritism. Goodness may it sounds like some sort of 0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:26.760 dating game show. 0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:30.560 It's pretty worrying stuff, Reacher, and this is going through 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:32.160 their newsrooms across the country. 0:08:32.200 --> 0:08:34.720 This is not just isolated to Sydney. 0:08:34.760 --> 0:08:34.920 Now. 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:36.040 He left in March. 0:08:36.320 --> 0:08:38.280 He said he went on for a walk along the 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:41.240 beach and he decided he was tired and he needed 0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:41.840 a break. 0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:42.920 Nine. 0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:45.320 We were asking them where is he. We were told 0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:48.400 he was coming back. That was not the case. There's 0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:49.880 a lot of people that seem to. 0:08:49.840 --> 0:08:52.600 Be covering up what is actually happening here. 0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:54.040 Now. 0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:58.560 The Daily Telegraph has been slammed not by Kevin Rudd 0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:03.600 this time, but by the Chinese Communist Party. Their officials 0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:07.760 are not happy that the Chinese Consulate General in Sydney 0:09:09.120 --> 0:09:12.760 sent emails to Australian politicians criticizing them for attending a 0:09:12.840 --> 0:09:16.720 gala in celebration of Taiwan and something the Daily Telegraph 0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:20.640 reported on. So the CCP is not happy with the Telly. 0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:23.280 I would have thought that's a badge of honor for them. 0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:23.920 Well, isn't it? 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:24.280 Rata? 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:28.080 I mean, should they be concerned that the CCP is 0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:29.000 not happy. 0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:31.880 With their reporting? Probably highlights that they're doing a very 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:32.400 good job. 0:09:32.960 --> 0:09:33.680 Absolutely. 0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:38.400 And finally, Sophie Richard Kemp is an outsider's favorite. 0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:40.840 He is a fantastic. 0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:44.440 Voice on geopolitical issues and he's been in Australia and 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:47.960 been shocked by what he's seen on our university campuses. 0:09:48.040 --> 0:09:51.199 Writing in The Telly today, he said they've gone full 0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:57.320 hamas he said, particularly about Sydney UNI. Just like inside Gaza, 0:09:57.559 --> 0:10:01.160 free speech is not allowed on the encamp Perhaps the 0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:05.000 campus rabel rousers are afraid their minions will say too 0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:08.880 much about their real agenda or reveal their lack of 0:10:08.960 --> 0:10:13.160 knowledge about what they are actually protesting about He is 0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:17.319 a retired British Army commander, Sophie, and if he's shocked 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:20.839 by the level of extremism on these university campuses, I 0:10:20.840 --> 0:10:21.720 think we should listen. 0:10:22.080 --> 0:10:22.920 We should listen. 0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:25.880 But Richard, it's been pretty horrifying some of the images 0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:29.400 that have been coming out from the university's people scared, 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:33.079 particularly Jewish students, saying that they're scared to even go 0:10:33.160 --> 0:10:36.840 to university. This is a really serious problem that the 0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:40.440 country is facing at the moment, and these activists at 0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:43.400 the universities, I argue, you should be more focused on 0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:47.240 getting their degrees and getting good jobs than you know, 0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:49.680 making you know, a problem for themselves. 0:10:49.679 --> 0:10:51.160 So they're making these universities. 0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:51.800 They're not just. 0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:53.920 Making a problem for themselves and making a problem for 0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:56.559 the kids who do want to go to classes and study, 0:10:56.640 --> 0:11:00.959 because they are obstructing that. They are intimidating students. And 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:04.959 I'm sure everybody would have watched Josh Friedenberg's documentary Never 0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:09.920 Again earlier tonight. It lays out precisely what is wrong 0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:14.760 with the leadership of these universities and also the activism 0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:15.480 on campuses. 0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:18.040 So feelsworth Thank you so much for your time this evening. 0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:20.480 Thank you, Reta joining me now. 0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:24.280 Sky News contributor Gary Hardgrave. Gary, let's start with the 0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:28.760 news that one in five detainees released after the High 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:31.400 Courts and Zedyq decision has. 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:34.000 Been charged with a new crime. 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:37.680 We've had twenty eight be charged and let's not forget 0:11:37.720 --> 0:11:40.560 they haven't been released that long. And now we've got 0:11:40.600 --> 0:11:45.120 dozens more convicted criminals planning to use a ministerial direction 0:11:45.400 --> 0:11:50.760 to successfully appeal their visa cancelations. This ministerial direction is 0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:52.800 from the Immigration Minister. 0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:54.760 Andrew Jarles is. 0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:59.280 Just stuffing up this portfolio, and it's an important portfolio. 0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:02.439 Gary, is the Prime minister going to make a move here. 0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:07.000 I don't know how the factions work. I really don't know, 0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:09.040 but read I got to say it is a nation 0:12:09.160 --> 0:12:12.120 building portfolio and that's what immigration should be. It should 0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:15.000 be a portfolio of the Australians are very confident in 0:12:15.160 --> 0:12:17.880 is being run properly and it's got to be an 0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:21.400 Australia's best interest that anybody who migrates here or visits 0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:24.520 here comes. It's got to be Australia's best interest if 0:12:24.559 --> 0:12:27.000 you're going to breach the trust and there's what over 0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:28.880 one hundred and fifty or so of these people that 0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:32.280 have been released for whatever reason, with alleged crimes in 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:34.760 the background, and all sorts of problems that may well 0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:37.240 be facing as a result of what they've done. Since 0:12:37.480 --> 0:12:39.800 that is a breach of trust, these are things that 0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:43.280 ministers should intervene in. If ministers should have opinions on, 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:45.720 ministers should act on. But what I don't get with 0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:47.800 this Blake is he doesn't seem to be acting in 0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:51.120 Australia's interests. It seems to be oh, someone's had a 0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:52.880 word to him about this, or someone's had a word 0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:55.719 to him about that. It shouldn't be a giveaway. This 0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:58.760 should be a tough thing to get the status to stay. 0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:02.360 And if people pray you break the law again, well 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:05.000 I think that's the second chance is out the door, 0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:06.960 and don't let it hit you on the way out. 0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:10.680 Pretty simple. We need toughness in this because reader for 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:13.640 the tens of thousands who do comply with the laws, 0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:17.559 they need to know that their status is assured because 0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:19.960 the few do the wrong thing of being acted on 0:13:20.280 --> 0:13:23.120 in a tough way. This minister is all over the place. 0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:25.840 He should go The Prime mister hasn't got the courage 0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:26.640 to do it though. 0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:32.000 He has just been consistently inepty is not up to 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.640 this portfolio, and the fact that he hasn't been moved 0:13:35.679 --> 0:13:41.640 along to something that is more fitting his ability is. 0:13:41.600 --> 0:13:43.599 An indictment on the Prime Minister. 0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:47.640 Because it's very clear that he is not equipped to 0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:51.480 deal with this portfolio. It seems every step of the 0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:56.079 way he has stuffed up. Now let's talk about Queensland. 0:13:56.480 --> 0:14:00.520 Their labor government is being accused of failing to for 0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:05.640 the state's population. Boom figures reveal it's Queensland's on track 0:14:05.720 --> 0:14:08.839 to hits decade old prediction of five point seventy three 0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:12.960 million by twenty twenty six. Premier step Miles earlier this 0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:16.160 month called on the federal government to slow down net 0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:20.960 migration from overseas, arguing the population is growing faster than 0:14:21.040 --> 0:14:24.200 new homes can be built. Yes, thank you, Captain obvious. 0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:29.200 But his own government is being accused of abysmal planning 0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:36.360 failures for failing to heed their own previous warnings. Is 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:38.720 this going to become an issue coming up to the 0:14:38.840 --> 0:14:42.320 state election. It seems like Stephen Miles is a smart 0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:46.440 political operator. He can read the opinion polls. He knows 0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:50.560 people want to see cuts to migration. He's backed Peter Dutton. 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:52.480 In fact, he said that was my idea that Peter 0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:58.360 Dutton took. But when you scrutinize the Labor government in 0:14:58.440 --> 0:15:02.520 Queensland the guilty of ill planning themselves. 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:05.880 Absolutely. The only plan they've got is how to give 0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:08.120 more money to the CFMU. I mean they've got this 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:12.320 tax on everything that's being built that basically is laundering 0:15:12.400 --> 0:15:15.440 money through the CFMU. The price of concrete for a 0:15:15.480 --> 0:15:19.440 backyard barbecue project is affected by the price of concrete 0:15:19.480 --> 0:15:23.000 that they'll pay for a state taxpayer funded project run 0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:25.760 by the CFMU in the middle of the city. Nothing's 0:15:25.800 --> 0:15:28.480 getting built. And this is a government that has actually 0:15:28.520 --> 0:15:31.280 given up on planning. It is in fact unable to 0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:35.480 make a decision about anything anytime anywhere anymore. And it's 0:15:35.480 --> 0:15:37.800 a government that has run out of puff. And look, 0:15:37.840 --> 0:15:41.320 I come from Queensland. I'm a proud Queenslander. It distresses 0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:44.080 me because the planning was there. They were told this 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:47.680 was what the population was going to be ten years ago, 0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:50.440 what the population was going to be next year. They 0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:52.920 were told that, and yet they failed to plan and 0:15:52.960 --> 0:15:56.440 now he's blaming migration. Well, the simple reality is it's 0:15:56.480 --> 0:16:00.640 a complete failure of the government to prioritize the kind 0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:03.560 of infrastructure we need in our roads are one thing. 0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:05.960 There's no doubt there's a need for that. We've got 0:16:05.960 --> 0:16:08.240 the Olympics coming in twenty thirty two. I don't know 0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:10.320 how anybody is going to get a walk around. They're 0:16:10.320 --> 0:16:11.840 going to have to walk around Brisbane, that's any way 0:16:11.880 --> 0:16:14.240 they can get around. And the Royal System reader was 0:16:14.280 --> 0:16:17.000 designed in the eighteen sixties and built in the eighteen 0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:19.800 seventies and no new rail line, so you know, and 0:16:19.800 --> 0:16:22.160 then you can throw water in the failure to plan 0:16:22.280 --> 0:16:24.760 properly for power. We used to have the world's cheapest 0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:29.120 and plentiful supply of electricity forty years ago. But this 0:16:29.240 --> 0:16:31.480 is a government that has been in office really for 0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:34.200 the last thirty five years, not just for the last 0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:37.920 nine or ten years, and they really have failed to 0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:41.840 deliver for Queensland's tomorrow. And so yes, it is an 0:16:41.920 --> 0:16:44.120 issue and David Chris Ofouley has got to tell us 0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:47.360 what he's going to do for the next generation of Queenslanders, 0:16:47.400 --> 0:16:49.560 not just the next election. And I think if he 0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:53.960 seals that he'll win this inner canna because Queenslanders want action. 0:16:54.320 --> 0:16:55.000 They want action. 0:16:57.200 --> 0:16:58.600 Queensland has won action. 0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:03.760 But then we saw Liberal Nationals back the Miles government's 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:09.399 bold mission targets that surprise a lot of people, particularly 0:17:09.440 --> 0:17:11.800 at an election where cost of living is going to 0:17:11.840 --> 0:17:16.120 be a major concern and you basically are taking energy 0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:21.159 out of the equation as an ideological point, as a 0:17:21.200 --> 0:17:24.680 policy area where you can challenge the government. 0:17:25.600 --> 0:17:27.280 What is the election looking. 0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:30.800 Like, what's your prediction of what we're going to see? 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:33.920 Well, it's coming at the end of October. Who knows 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:35.760 a lot of things could happen between now and then. 0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:39.399 But a courageous decision to back a bad policy, the 0:17:39.480 --> 0:17:43.439 Miles government policy on net zero. It was also another 0:17:43.480 --> 0:17:47.760 courageous decision to pooh pooh Peter Dutton's discussion his plan 0:17:48.200 --> 0:17:51.280 to talk at least about nuclear being a viable, cheap 0:17:51.359 --> 0:17:56.360 alternative and a carbon free alternative to renewables. And yet 0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:58.199 we all we know there's a long long way to 0:17:58.200 --> 0:18:00.200 go on all of that. So look, I think the 0:18:00.240 --> 0:18:02.840 State opposition is going to hear a lot from the 0:18:02.880 --> 0:18:06.359 grassroots members of the Liberal National Party in coming weeks 0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:09.680 because they're having a convention at the end of journ. 0:18:10.280 --> 0:18:12.120 We'll wait and see. But look, there is a lot 0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:14.480 to be done. This is David Chrystop foolis to lose 0:18:15.160 --> 0:18:17.879 and he's got to get It's sharp in people's minds 0:18:17.880 --> 0:18:20.880 that he will be different in the right places. He's 0:18:20.920 --> 0:18:23.480 talking about law and order, he's talking about cost of living, 0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:27.320 but your right power is a major living component, and 0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:29.080 for a lot of members of the party it's an 0:18:29.160 --> 0:18:32.119 article of faith. Dutton's on the right path and the 0:18:32.119 --> 0:18:34.800 state opposition's got to catch up. They've just got to 0:18:34.800 --> 0:18:37.240 catch up to him. I wish them well. 0:18:37.920 --> 0:18:43.800 It's very sir Humphrey of you to call those decisions courageous. 0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:47.320 I enjoyed that. Now I know you're. 0:18:47.080 --> 0:18:52.400 In aviation buff I'm interested in your take on this. 0:18:52.400 --> 0:18:54.600 This is just incredible footage. 0:18:54.600 --> 0:18:57.520 I'm sure it will go viral around the world by 0:18:57.560 --> 0:18:59.440 the end of the week, if it hasn't already. A 0:19:00.080 --> 0:19:05.240 right aircraft that lost power mid flight, only narrowly missing 0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:11.159 hitting houses in suburban Sydney before making a crash landing 0:19:11.760 --> 0:19:15.120 on a runway. This is a a may Day call. 0:19:15.200 --> 0:19:18.879 The pilot managed to just miss trees houses. 0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:22.000 You can see it just got past. 0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:26.520 The hangar there apparently only a meter, and he had 0:19:26.600 --> 0:19:29.320 pulled the wheels up because it didn't think he would 0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:32.359 get past the hangars with the wheels and a perfect 0:19:32.600 --> 0:19:37.240 crash landing. Both the pilot and the passenger walked away. 0:19:38.760 --> 0:19:42.480 Just incredible footage. And let's hear now from the pilot. 0:19:43.760 --> 0:19:44.560 It was lighting. 0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:45.560 It wasn't a no goer. 0:19:46.040 --> 0:19:48.480 We clipped the peas and we just made it over 0:19:48.520 --> 0:19:51.160 the hangar. How close were you coming over the homes? 0:19:51.400 --> 0:19:52.480 It was very close. 0:19:52.520 --> 0:19:55.000 We didn't think we were going to make this landing 0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:57.200 strip out. It looked to me like you were about 0:19:57.359 --> 0:19:59.480 three or four meters above the homes. Yeah, it was 0:19:59.560 --> 0:20:02.440 very very and the hangar it look like you're about 0:20:02.480 --> 0:20:04.320 a meter above. That just cleared it. 0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:07.640 Jake retracted the landing gear because he thought he would 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:08.520 hit the roofs. 0:20:08.960 --> 0:20:11.159 It's why he landed the plane on its belly. 0:20:11.440 --> 0:20:12.959 What are you going to do to celebrate tonight? 0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:15.200 And I think just be alone. 0:20:16.080 --> 0:20:16.360 Be al. 0:20:17.359 --> 0:20:18.440 Just incredible. 0:20:18.800 --> 0:20:22.280 That is a pilot you would feel safe being in 0:20:22.359 --> 0:20:23.440 charge of a. 0:20:23.240 --> 0:20:24.520 Massive passenger plane. 0:20:24.520 --> 0:20:27.879 I think this is an argument that's happening in the 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:33.600 US in particular about DEI policies and getting more diversity 0:20:34.119 --> 0:20:37.800 in the cockpit. I think that just proves you want meritocracy, 0:20:37.840 --> 0:20:40.240 You want the very best people to be flying the plane, 0:20:40.320 --> 0:20:42.760 especially if there's hundreds of passengers on board. 0:20:44.640 --> 0:20:48.120 Yeah, and that's why I stick with Quotus myself. That's 0:20:48.160 --> 0:20:52.159 why I flew flew with Cortus from Brisbane. The camber look, Rita. 0:20:52.640 --> 0:20:55.720 The guy knew that you dangled the dunlops for wind 0:20:55.760 --> 0:20:58.280 resistance to bring it closer to the ground. In a 0:20:58.320 --> 0:21:01.560 proper landing, will lift it up to get rid of 0:21:01.600 --> 0:21:03.680 that resistance so it could go that little bit further. 0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:06.679 Perfect belly landing, took it off the runway, dropped it 0:21:06.760 --> 0:21:09.720 on the grass. Twenty out of ten. I give him 0:21:09.760 --> 0:21:10.560 twenty out of ten. 0:21:10.640 --> 0:21:16.040 Well done, incredible, incredible, Gary Hardgrave, thank you so much. 0:21:16.280 --> 0:21:17.119 Still to come. 0:21:17.480 --> 0:21:21.159 Lefties Losing It featuring the Leader of the Free World 0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:25.600 plus Josh Hammer joins me to explain the latest conspiracy 0:21:25.680 --> 0:21:27.359 theory that's turned out. 0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:28.920 To be true. 0:21:37.000 --> 0:21:37.760 Welcome back. 0:21:37.840 --> 0:21:40.880
