1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,960
Speaker 1: Now for a government looking to save money, beggars believe

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: that they haven't had a decent look at the White

3
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Tangy Tribunal. You see them again on Friday they strike,

4
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 1: this time a report that condemns the Treaty Principle's Bill.

5
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: They condemn it and they want to abolish it. Travelers,

6
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: there is no such thing. There is no such thing.

7
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,479
Speaker 1: The tribunal is like a court. Fortunately it doesn't have

8
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 1: the same powers as a court. And indeed, as a

9
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 1: result of the reports like this, you can surely argue

10
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 1: it's now nowadays a little more than an advocacy service

11
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 1: for the aggrieved as opposed to a tribunal or a

12
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: court that should be taken seriously. Such as their interventionism,

13
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: they border on being little more than state funded winges

14
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: these days. How can you, as a tribunal of any

15
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,479
Speaker 1: serious standing issue, will report into a bill that does

16
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,199
Speaker 1: not exist. There is no bill, There are no clauses.

17
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 1: As we sit here today. What we have is an idea,

18
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 1: an election commitment, a promise. Nothing has yet been written,

19
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 1: taken a cabinet, fairly signed off by cabinet. It does

20
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: not exist. So what the tribunal are saying is we

21
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: don't like the idea courts and tribunals should deal with fact.

22
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: They have no fact. They should deal with evidence. They

23
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: have no evidence. Missus Johnson in the library with the candlestick.

24
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: I assume David Seemore as Missus Johnson, the Parliament's the library,

25
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 1: but they have no candlestick. They have as they would

26
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: see it, or as you and I would see it,

27
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: no crime. Not only isn't there a bill. When there

28
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 1: is a bill, guess what you get to have a

29
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: say at Select committee. Everyone gets to have a say. Dear,

30
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: I suggest Mary might get to have a say. That's

31
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 1: called democracy, which ironically is a cornerstone of what may

32
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: or may not turn out to be the Treaty Settlement's Bill.

33
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 1: David seymore generously on Friday, welcome the report as part

34
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: of the wider discussion he wants to have. But as

35
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: a taxpayer, I am over a grouping who clearly have

36
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 1: passed their use by date for historic grievances, which is

37
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: what they were set up for in the first place,

38
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: and have moved on to grievance gravy trains. It is

39
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 1: clear they hate the government. They may as well write

40
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: another report simply saying so. At least it would once

41
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: and for all expose the agenda that really drives them.

42
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: For more from the mic Asking Breakfast, listen live to

43
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,400
