1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,960
Speaker 1: Executive summary. Ah, the executive summary changes little of anything. Firstly,

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 1: it is not the full report. We paid for the

3
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:09,800
Speaker 1: full report. The full report is about being transparent. The

4
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,960
Speaker 1: Greens can't claim transparency and honesty when they played dumb

5
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 1: games like the ones they are at the moment. Secondly,

6
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 1: it sort of doesn't matter. It says what it is

7
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 1: claimed it says, and so in that sense it is

8
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,279
Speaker 1: not really the story anymore. The original story was whether

9
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,799
Speaker 1: Darlene Tana was not what she claimed to be. The

10
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: report answered that seeing the written evidence, as we can

11
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: now apparently doesn't change the crime, does it, even though

12
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 1: Tanna disputes bits of it. Sadly, her foray into the

13
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 1: public are light. This week on the Telly has not

14
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 1: served her remotely well. She, as far as I could hear,

15
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 1: basically babbled and blustered and made literally no sense whatsoever,

16
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 1: leaving me with the impression she must be a nightmare

17
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: to deal with at the best of times, and God

18
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:48,959
Speaker 1: knows what it's like to buy a bike from her. Anyway,

19
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 1: This is the point either. The point is she's an

20
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: interloper who may well have the brass neck to try

21
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 1: it on and turn up at Parliament next week and

22
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: tough it out. Which is the real story. What are

23
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: the Greens do? And given the answer to this point

24
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: is nothing, they are the real criminals. Are pleading and

25
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: asking her to quit hasn't worked, isn't working, probably won't work.

26
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 1: But think about this. Is it a tactic? Is it

27
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 1: a tactic that gets them out of actually doing anything?

28
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: Is this for both parties a cake and eat it scenario?

29
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: Tanna hangs in there until we all get bored, so

30
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: she's on the pigs back for the rest of the term,

31
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: accountable to no one. The Greens huf and puff do nothing,

32
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: hoping we also forget. But if and when we don't,

33
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 1: they can huff and puff some more, saying exasperatedly, and

34
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,559
Speaker 1: we asked her to resign, but she wouldn't. The Walker laws,

35
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: of course, solve all of this, but they're so hoisted

36
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: by their myopic thinking on it they don't want to

37
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: embarrass themselves any further, even though it is the right

38
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: thing to do. They're also not off the hook on

39
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: the candidate selection. Having a one stop are you a nutter?

40
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: Will you embarrass as clause is not enough to safeguard yourself.

41
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: As we've seen time and time again. With this lot,

42
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: they actually have to, oh, I don't know, dig ask

43
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: a few questions. So if Tana's skin is thick enough,

44
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: she collects the money, passes go and laughs at us

45
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,239
Speaker 1: and the Greens, well, surely, if this is them at

46
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: their most decisive, Chloe's dream of overtaking labor is about

47
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: as well thought through as their candidate selection process. For
