1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,520 Speaker 1: Murray olds Ossie correspondents to the Naheimaz Good afternoon, Heather, 2 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: So what do you reckon? Other knives out for Susan 3 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,879 Speaker 1: Yes and no. The trouble is the people on the 4 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: right are the conservatives in the Liberal Party can't agree 5 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,279 Speaker 1: on either Angus Taylor, who is widely regarded as a 6 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,480 Speaker 1: complete dud. He was the shadow treasurer under Peter Dutton 7 00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 1: and honestly you wouldn't feed the guy. Or Andrew Hasty, 8 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: who would represent a generational change. He's got a bit 9 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: of baggage too, because he's been out there as an 10 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: arch conservative. He wants to start making Fords and Holdens 11 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: again in Australia, make those days that's so last century. Andrew, 12 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 1: he's got a really good CV. He was in the 13 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: Armed Forces over here for a long time, served in Afghanistan, 14 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 1: he was in the Special Air Service and he is 15 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 1: absolutely a fellow of the future. So they've got this 16 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: generational battle and as long as the right wing of 17 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: the Liberal Party what's left of it anyway, can't agree, 18 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: Susan Lee remains in the top job because she has 19 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: the support of the moderates. The trouble as conservative Australian 20 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: voters hate the moderate Liberals. They say their labor light worthless, 21 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't feed you, and they are much more likely to 22 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: go galloping towards Pauline Hansen. The National Party itself talk 23 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: about shooting themselves in the foot, that lead a little 24 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,320 Speaker 1: proud fair denkom he should take himself out the back 25 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: and just say goodbye to politics. He's absolutely useless. So 26 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: you've got right wing Australian voters are saying, for God's sake, 27 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: can someone put their hand up and say I'm your 28 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: man or woman come with me. And at the moment, 29 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,119 Speaker 1: all they've got s Pauline Hanson because the Libs they 30 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: are just a fractured bunch of half wits. Do sound 31 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,639 Speaker 1: like that? Listen the fire warning in New South Wales 32 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: is there very much? So? Yeah, yeah, yeah, And it's 33 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: been that way well gosh since the last weekend. Nowhere 34 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: near to the same extend in terms of heat as 35 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: South Australia. You're over there bumping fifty degrees centigrade this 36 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: week in Victoria, where of course they've been ravaged by 37 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: bushfires and parts of the state you've had many many 38 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: homes have gone farm buildings, you know, barns and sheds 39 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: and whatnot. Luckily no one's died, thank goodness. But temperatures 40 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: have just been soaring as they are in western New 41 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: South Wales. You've got a cool change heather, but that's 42 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: not expected until Sunday. So you know, you look at 43 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: you at your weather forecast on television every evening, all 44 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 1: of you know, Western New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia. 45 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: It's this deep, deep purple which represents extreme heat. As 46 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: I say, no change expected until a cool flush comes 47 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: heading north at the back end of the weekend. South Australia. 48 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: By the way, UDNA data which holds the record for 49 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: the highest temperature ever recorded in Australia equal now fifty 50 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: one and change that will be forty eight degrees today. 51 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: So it's just scorching. What's this new public holiday that 52 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: New South Wales might be getting, Well, it's you know, 53 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: the critics, So it's Pouli patriotism because Anzac Day this 54 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: year and next year will fall on a weekend. This 55 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: year is Saturday, next year Sunday. And two states already 56 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 1: were one state, which is Western Australia and the Australian 57 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: Capital Territory, which is Canberra. They've already said that in 58 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: the event of Anzac Day falling on a weekend day, 59 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,679 Speaker 1: we will have a public on it our Monday. Now 60 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: employers hate that, they say, hang on a second product 61 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: of but he's already in the toilet. We need people 62 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: at work. Inflation this week, you've got three point eight 63 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: percent of the twelve months to descend, but well above 64 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: the RBA target. The cash rate right now three point 65 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: six percent. Expected to go up next week when the 66 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: Reserve Bank meets for the first time this year. So 67 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: the last thing anyone's thinking about in the business end 68 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: of Australian society, the people who actually pay the wages 69 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: are saying, is there nothing better you've got to talk 70 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: about than a bloody extra public holiday for Anzac Day? 71 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: Watch this space.
