1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: Day two of Elbow's trip to China and Oliver Peterson

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:05,760
Speaker 1: six PR per F LIVEE presenters with us Hey Ali,

3
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: Hey Ryan. How's it going for him?

4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 2: They're good.

5
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 3: He's had a big press conference just a short time

6
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 3: ago where he said decarbonization and free trade are going

7
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 3: to be the two main areas he hopes to discuss

8
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:18,959
Speaker 3: with the Chinese.

9
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 2: President, Jijing Ping. They're set to catch up tomorrow morning.

10
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 3: He's looking forward to a constructive conversation. And he had

11
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 3: standing next to him today Andrew Forrest of ford Eskew Metals.

12
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 3: They're part of a trade talk, part of a trade

13
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:38,600
Speaker 3: meeting about trying to put the pressure on Chinese steelmakers

14
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 3: about decarbonizing their steelmaking process. Let's be blunt, Ryan, and

15
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,919
Speaker 3: not going to listen to an Australian businessman or the

16
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,319
Speaker 3: Australian Prime minicy and do whatever they want to do.

17
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 3: And this comes in the background of a bit of

18
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 3: pressure coming from the Pentagon about Anthony Albanizi being in

19
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 3: China at the moments and whether the orcus is up

20
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,319
Speaker 3: for discussion, and also whether or not he is going

21
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 3: to be battering away a few questions at the moment

22
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 3: about the future of Taiwan. So you expect these sort

23
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 3: of diplomatic pressures to be applied when the Australian Prime

24
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 3: Minister is currently in China.

25
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 2: But at the moment it's all smiles from Italy.

26
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 1: It's fascinating that because the reporters are going, will you

27
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: follow America into a war against China over Taiwan? While

28
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 1: he's in Shannghai, he's handling it a turnaround and say yeah,

29
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 1: I go, well, I don't even know what for at

30
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: this point, or you know who's joining us exactly.

31
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 3: And he's been asked about the Porter Darwin contract as

32
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 3: an example, which he has previously said we'll come back

33
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,399
Speaker 3: into Australian ownership, and that he's being told that a

34
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 3: you know, prominent blogger or some social media star in

35
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 3: China is saying, if you know Australia does this, there'll be.

36
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 2: Dire consequences for Australia.

37
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 3: I mean he's just responded by saying, I'm not sure

38
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 3: who the blogger is, but governments can't respond in policy

39
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 3: terms every time an articles written, a tweet or a

40
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 3: blog and change their position.

41
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's an interesting environment, isn't it.

42
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 3: Ryan.

43
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: Now the Aussie Treasury sounds a bit like Ow's that

44
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: she's saying put taxes up.

45
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, they are.

46
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 3: They've accidentally leaked this Treasury advice saying that we should

47
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 3: be putting up taxes, we should be slashing spending. This

48
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 3: was advice provided to the Albanezi governed after the election.

49
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 3: It accidentally released this information in response to freedom of

50
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 3: information requests before pleading with the journalists to go and

51
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 3: destroy the document.

52
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 2: I mean, you're not going to go and destroy that,

53
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 2: are you.

54
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 3: They said tax should be raised as part of a

55
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 3: broader tax reform, and it suggested that the ambitious targets

56
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 3: pledged by the Prime Minister to build another one point

57
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 3: two million homes over the next five years to address

58
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 3: the housing crisis.

59
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: Will not be met.

60
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 3: Now. I mean, there's a few boffins in Treasury who've

61
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 3: made that comment, but you could have asked anybody in

62
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 3: Australia right now.

63
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 2: They're so far behind those targets.

64
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 3: It's not coming as a big surprise, and you know

65
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 3: they don't want to raise taxes again.

66
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 2: This smiling for me to we are a treasurer of Jim

67
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 2: Chalmers out today, We'll meet those targets. Everything's fine, Australia.

68
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 2: Austraight is good. There's something to see here.

69
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: Ryan Boo's not so good apparently. Well, there's a push

70
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: to have cancer risk labels on bottles of boos.

71
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, and this is actually a trend which is actually

72
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 3: happening around the world. But the Cancer Council here in

73
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,119
Speaker 3: Australia is starting to fire this one up and suggesting

74
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 3: that every single bottle of alcohol that's sold in this

75
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 3: country should come with their cancer warning, much like they

76
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 3: do in Australia at the moment, about the risks in

77
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 3: regards to pregnancy if you're going to be drinking, and

78
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 3: we now have obviously printed on the side of a

79
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 3: cigarette of each single legal cigarette sold, although more illegal

80
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 3: cigarettes are being sold than legal cigarettes, the dangers that

81
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 3: could be doing to your body in the cancer risks

82
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 3: associated with it, So the evidence is clear. Saying that

83
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 3: kiss star at the UK Prime Minister said it's urgently

84
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 3: needed over there to help save lives, so we should

85
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 3: be doing something similar. It's getting a bit of a

86
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 3: lukewarm response, a bit like a flat beer at the moment.

87
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 2: There's not much interest in this country to be.

88
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 3: Putting even more labeling on our beers and our bottles

89
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 3: are wine. But I'm sure it will happen eventually, Ryan,

90
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 3: And you know that's just what the public health lobby

91
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 3: groups like to promote.

92
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: It's just the way the world goes, isn't it, Ollie?

93
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,000
