1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,760 Speaker 1: In Australia's Monday Morning See Price, Very good morning to you. 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:04,760 Speaker 2: Hello there, how's the. 3 00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 1: Dutton nuclear of the elban EASi. There's an election coming. 4 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: Debate going well. 5 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 2: Got very ugly at the weekend, particularly from Peter Dutton's side, 6 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 2: and then the old war horse Paul Keating lobbed a 7 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 2: couple of grenades overnight to Ward Dutton, calling him a 8 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 2: climate change deniron. But with Paul you just got to 9 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,280 Speaker 2: you know, he just does that every now and then 10 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 2: to keep everybody happy. But Peter Dutton was at the 11 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:33,480 Speaker 2: Liberal Party Federal Council Mirke on Saturday. He outlined how 12 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 2: he thought the party could beat Anthony alban EASi the 13 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,199 Speaker 2: first term labor government. He believes that can win. He 14 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,879 Speaker 2: urged them all to get out there. It must get 15 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 2: back into government. And then things got really nasty. He 16 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 2: said in an offscript moment that the Prime Minister is 17 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 2: a quote nasty and week accused him of telling people 18 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 2: what they want to hear. And then this he said, 19 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 2: he as in Anthony Abneasy. Our prime minister is a 20 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 2: man with a mind still captured in his university years. 21 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 2: He's a child in a man's body. I think mister 22 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 2: Albinizi is a decent man who cares deeply about his country, 23 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 2: but I believe he's completely out of his depth as 24 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 2: Prime Minister. So that's set up the week. You've got 25 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 2: a week of parliament coming up. Now there's two weeks 26 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 2: of sitting into the winter break, and so I expect 27 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 2: there'll be some more fireworks later during the rest of today. 28 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: Is the subtlety or nuance of the Deate being captured 29 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: when he talks about a climate change deny. It's not 30 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: about that. It's about the gap between what you got 31 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: in renewables and the day you can turn the renewables 32 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: on in a reliable fashion and the lights go on 33 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,040 Speaker 1: each and every time. In other words, you need something 34 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: in between that's going to solve your problem long term. 35 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. Look, I'm a naive optimistist called last week on 36 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 2: the fact that we need to have a mature, adult 37 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 2: debate about this, because I'm about to tell you what's 38 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 2: going to happen. Because if we don't have a mature 39 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 2: debate about it, and we keep throwing rocks at each 40 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 2: other with the country that has extraordinary amount of resources 41 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 2: is going to be up with no energy. It's just ridiculous. 42 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: Precisely, So where are you at in terms of because 43 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: we've only just gone back to the gas thing. So 44 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: the previous government here they banned exploration on oil and gas. 45 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: New government here has just suddenly sort of re energized 46 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: that and said you can get some licenses. And the 47 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 1: debate around here is whether or not there's anyone internationally 48 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: he wants to come back to the country. You at 49 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 1: least have all of those resources, don't you. 50 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, we do. You'd want to hope that they do 51 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 2: come back because without gas, certainly in Australia, industries in 52 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 2: big trouble. The Australian's reporting this morning we've got a 53 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 2: crisis on two fronts. Victoria's main storage plant is set 54 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 2: to run out of gas or the end of winter, 55 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 2: and one of the biggest manufacturers said, look, if we 56 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 2: don't get some reliable gas supplies, we're going to slash 57 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: jobs and closed factories. Now. It can't get any more 58 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 2: grim than that. The Australian reveals today that the Energy 59 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 2: regulator place Mob called AEMO caution the industry that the 60 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,519 Speaker 2: largest supplier of gas storage on the East Coast of Australia, 61 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,079 Speaker 2: Lockhart Energy, at a place called Iona Facility in northeast 62 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: Victoria could run out of gas before the end of winter, 63 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 2: so that's a month and a half away. Aimo said 64 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 2: to gas uses on Thursday, you need to have what 65 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 2: you're taking out of that facility from four hundred terror 66 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: duels down to two hundred to avoid it running dry. 67 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 2: And Oraca, one of Australia's biggest gas uses they make 68 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 2: explosives for the mining industry. They said, look, we're going 69 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 2: to have to cut production and we're going to have 70 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 2: to look at sacking people. So there's the reality of 71 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 2: what happens when you don't take advantage of all of 72 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 2: the resources that you have at you at your disposal. 73 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: It's crazy exactly. 74 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: So Charles, and I mean be grateful he's actually coming, 75 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: because he's canceled us. You realize he's going to summer 76 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 1: in Australia but not us. So at least you've got 77 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: your debate between the horse races. At least he's turning up. 78 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 2: I wonder how that's gone down to New Zealand. King 79 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 2: Charles the Third obviously battling cancer and these doctors have 80 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: told him he's got to slim this trip down The 81 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 2: bigger debate in Australia was whether he was going to 82 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 2: go to the Melbourne Cup or whether he's going to 83 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: turn up at this thing at Randwick in Sydney called 84 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 2: the Everest where they have a cheeky boss in charge 85 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 2: of racing and rugby league voc called Peter Landi's And 86 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: what he's done is he's named a race after Charles 87 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: at the Everest on that day. The King happens to 88 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 2: be in the country when that race meeting's on. And 89 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: guess what, He's not going to go to the Melbourne Cup. 90 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 2: He's going to go to the King Charles the Third 91 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 2: Stakes at Randwick instead. 92 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: Pretty clever. 93 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: Hey. 94 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 1: By the way, given you're from Adelaide, do you know 95 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: the Westfield Marion shopping center. 96 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 2: I certainly do. My mother goes there most weeks. 97 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: Okay ninety, Well yesterday thrown into lockdown after a mass 98 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: brawl involving up to twenty youth one at least wielding 99 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: a machete. Is that sort of thing unusual in Australia? 100 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,359 Speaker 2: Well, I hope you hope that it's unusual. I mean, obviously, 101 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 2: is it a copycat of what took place at Bondi junction. 102 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 2: You'd hope not where six people of course lost their lives, 103 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 2: but the scenes and you would have seen on TV 104 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 2: news last night of those US rampaging through that challenge. 105 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 2: It's a massive west field. I think it's either the 106 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 2: first or second largest in the country. And to shut 107 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: that down on the Sunday, a huge number of people 108 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 2: locked in behind security bars.
