These people really love 58 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: a lot of them, the whole lot of them, both sides, 59 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: all sides.

These are independents. But that's exactly 63 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: what they're doing. I mean they've been called out for 64 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: another greedy excess of grab that politicians always seem to 65 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: get caught out on. I mean it's top of to 66 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: them for free.
