1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,599 Speaker 1: Across the Tasman we go see Price. Very good morning 2 00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 1: to you Wending. Now what a you got in the 3 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: last couple of minutes, So the nurse in the. 4 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 2: Hospital, yes, and breaking news. You remember the two nurses 5 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,680 Speaker 2: out of that Sydney hospital in the scrubs, they were 6 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:18,239 Speaker 2: doing an online chat with this Israeli influencer from Israel 7 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 2: and they then started talking about what they would do 8 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,440 Speaker 2: if Jewish patients were admitted to the hospital, making wild 9 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:28,639 Speaker 2: claims that Jewish patients had been killed within the hospital. 10 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 2: It was all very very disturbing and nasty stuff. Well, 11 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,239 Speaker 2: in the last few moments we learned that one of 12 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 2: those nurses, the female woman called Sarah Lebda, was charged 13 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: on Tuesday night, seven thirty Tuesday night, charged with threatening 14 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 2: violence using a carriage service, which just means that she 15 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,519 Speaker 2: was using that chat with the Israeli influencer to make 16 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 2: threats against people and police have decided the charger no 17 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 2: news on the male part of that conversation. The other 18 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 2: development on that was that New South Wales police actually 19 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 2: trapped was Australia Federal Police actually traveled to Israel interviewed 20 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 2: the influencer. They had to get that interview. When it 21 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 2: came back, it was in Hebrew, had to get it 22 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 2: transferred into English. They're now working their way through that. 23 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 2: So that's happened in the last couple good. 24 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: Well, a lot of people will be pleased about that, 25 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 1: because I know in the last couple of days the 26 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 1: pressure has gone on the feeds to cough and they 27 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,040 Speaker 1: had to say, look, be patient. 28 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm very reluctant to talk about it, but we've 29 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 2: got center estimates hearings on at the moment. I guess 30 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 2: I've got no doubt that will come up at some 31 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 2: point today. 32 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 1: Right, So, the prospect of a hung parliament because we 33 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: sort of do I mean the CMMP environment and stuff. 34 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: I mean we're kind of used to it now, but 35 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: you still run a sort of a system whereby somebody 36 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: wins and somebody doesn't win. What are you going to 37 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: do with the Home Parliament? 38 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 2: Well, according to the mining executives and news quotes used 39 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 2: language that I've rarely heard. Two of them top energy chiefs. 40 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 2: One of them is Meg O'Neil, who runs Woodside Energy, 41 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 2: massive company, got a thirty billion dollar project on the 42 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: north west shelp. The other one is Brett Woods, who 43 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 2: runs Kerry Stokes's oil business out of Wa Beach Energy Woods, 44 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 2: writing in this Journey Today, said it'll be a nightmare 45 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 2: and a quiet menace of a horrific policy will come 46 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 2: out of it. If we have a cross bench dominated 47 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: by the Greens and Teals in minority government with the 48 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,919 Speaker 2: Labor Party, would a meg O'Neil went further. She said 49 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 2: the balance of power featuring the Greens and the Tials 50 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 2: would quote frankly, be a Nightmayor. Now this is extremely 51 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: strong language weeks out for an election. The boss of 52 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 2: the oil operation he said, quote so if you feel 53 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 2: your hippocket as a dull ache, now it'll be battered 54 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 2: and bruised if the Greens are handed more sway in Parliament. O'Neil, 55 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 2: the woman the running woodside, she said, if the Teals 56 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 2: hold the balance of power federally with the Greens, it 57 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 2: would be bad for households. It would be a nightmare, 58 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 2: and she was beyond frustrated with the ongoing delays with 59 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 2: the Northwest Shelf approval. Now that project is called the 60 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 2: Burup Peninsula. It's actually up in Northwest and Western Australia. 61 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 2: It's been held up by all of these people claiming 62 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 2: that it's going to damage Aboriginal rock art up there, 63 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 2: which it clearly is not going to do. So that's 64 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 2: just a shot across the bows of anyone who thinks 65 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,519 Speaker 2: that they might be voting independent during the next election. 66 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: Here's the advantage of a system that you have that 67 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: we don't have, and that is that you can manipulate 68 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: your vote, or at least massage you vote. We've only 69 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 1: got a couple of votes, and this happened a couple 70 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: of elections ago. People got frightened for the Greens and 71 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: they balked on the Greens and they gave Labor the majority, 72 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: and Labor went nuts and ruined the country. If you 73 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: preference appropriately, can you achieve what you think you are 74 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: going to achieve when you vote? 75 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 2: It seems impossible to think you can. I mean, you 76 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 2: go into the booth and you've got a mile long 77 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 2: voting slip and you've got to go number from one 78 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 2: to as many as forty or something. You feel inadequate 79 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 2: when you're doing it, and the party's trying to give 80 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,119 Speaker 2: you a hout to vote cart as you walk through 81 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 2: the door, or which makes it easy you just tick 82 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 2: their candidate preferences go automatically to whoever they suggest they 83 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 2: should go to. But the system is very much invent 84 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 2: in advantage of the independence. And I think the tills 85 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,919 Speaker 2: are largely going to hang on to those inner suburban 86 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 2: seats in Sydney and Melbourne. It's the greens where you 87 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 2: can pick off some of them in Queensland and it's 88 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 2: the outer suburban seats where Labour's got small majorities. That 89 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 2: is where you will probably see the LMP pickup numbers. 90 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: Okay, and then we come to desenter, who wants to 91 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: make the place of townhouse capital in what form? Where 92 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: is this her area or the whole of the state. 93 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 2: Whole state? The quote was, I want to make Victoria 94 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 2: the townhouse capital of Australia. Now this is really disturbing. 95 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 2: What you you can't guess at it, but I'm going 96 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 2: to ask you anyway, what do you think the normal 97 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 2: waking time to get planning permission to build a house 98 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 2: in inverted. 99 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,679 Speaker 1: Well, I'd like to say seven days, but it's probably 100 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 1: going to be fifteen months. 101 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 2: One hundred and forty five days. She has said, if 102 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 2: you build the townhouses that I want built, and these 103 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 2: are three story structures, I'll make sure that the override 104 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: your local council and you'll get permissioned in fifty eight days. 105 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 2: And if your next door neighbors says, I don't like 106 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 2: three storytown has so I don't want one next to me, 107 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 2: you'll have no opportunity to appeal. 108 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: Wow, that's called communism, Steve. I'm not sure if you 109 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: work that one out yet. But we were having a 110 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: similar thing here that got killed as well, and it 111 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 1: was going to be three houses, our three stories on 112 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: a standard block of land six or seven hundred square 113 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: meter block of land, you can build three three story 114 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: houses and no one could complain about it. And quite 115 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: you know, obviously people did complain, so it never came 116 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 1: to pass. So good lucky. 117 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 2: Well, same thing's going to happen here. I mean, it's 118 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 2: just you go to some of these outer suburbs and 119 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 2: you know, there's no infrastructure, there's no park lands, there's 120 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 2: no schools, there's one shopping center. 121 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: It's horrific, and they're all like, Victoria, just to spring 122 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: this on you. And I apologize if you don't know, 123 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: because why Victoria. The Crimes Act Section four five eight 124 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: allows anyone to arrest anyone they find committing an offense. 125 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: Do you know that to be true? 126 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 2: I did not know that. So that's going to make 127 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: my day very busy. 128 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: So you're out there and make a few citizens arrest. 129 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, correctly, while we going to Chatterel Street, when I 130 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 2: get off the phone and arrest a few of those 131 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 2: people wandering around with ice addiction, making them some that 132 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 2: look like a tip mate. 133 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: You go, well, Stuve Price out of Australia.
