He's that driving in do you remember 31 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 5: I never heard of it. He believes that the thirty 32 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 5: thousand soccer fans were inside Amy Park while the idiots 33 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 5: were at the pubs. He says during the Hawks and 34 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 5: Pies game, the violence was inside the G because there 35 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 5: was a little bit of a scuffle in there. 36 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 2: But it was a scuffle inside the G on Friday night, 37 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 2: so he saying it. 38 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 5: Wasn't ross and I we weren't involved. 39 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: Inside. So he's saying that there was more violence inside 40 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 2: the MCG. 41 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 5: Then there was the violence was That's what I'm saying. 42 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 6: Well, Bruno, there's been a police media release and eleven 43 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 6: people were evicted from the actual gay There was a 44 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 6: bit of action and there were and there was a 45 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 6: crowd of about thirty thousand, eighty three thousand at the 46 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 6: MCG and ten people were evicted. 47 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:28,119 Speaker 2: Bruno's so what Nikki's saying is the crowd was much 48 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 2: better about you. 49 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 6: But seriously, Bruno makes a point. There was a scuffle 50 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 6: and it was well reported on the TV NEWSS last 51 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,959 Speaker 6: night there was a scuffle which was ugly and totally 52 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:44,959 Speaker 6: unnecessary inside the MCG that was reported. That was disgraceful. 53 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 6: But what I don't get about this whole thing with 54 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 6: the soccer fans. I love the passion of soccer fans. 55 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 6: I think it's fantastic. I don't know. The march to 56 00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 6: the MCG fire, the MCG march to a stadium fantastic, 57 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 6: Go ahead, do it. I do not get the flair thing. 58 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 6: The flair thing is obviously dangerous, it's illegal, and it's 59 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 6: buff headed. Get rid of that and you don't have 60 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 6: a problem. I don't get it. I don't understand it. 61 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 7: You know. 62 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,799 Speaker 2: I was watching the reports on the news last night. 63 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 2: The audio we played at the start there was Jilly 64 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 2: land trus on nine I think seven had John Johnson 65 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 2: out there as well, the lines of police and the 66 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 2: riot squad and the mounted police. I thought it's overkilled, 67 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 2: surely well, but it didn't make it seem way. It 68 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 2: made it seem like I was about to get way bigger. 69 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 6: But the problem was, but be fair here, the police 70 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 6: can't win. They've been warned. Keep in mind that obviously 71 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 6: the background of this was that pitch invasion and all 72 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 6: the dramas in twenty twenty two, and they've recently just 73 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 6: penalized a few of the people who were involved in that, 74 00:03:55,800 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 6: so there is unfortunately a track record there. Just imagine 75 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 6: if all of this had happened and the police had said, no, no, 76 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 6: we're not going to send out a lot of police, 77 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 6: We're just going to wait and see what happened. And 78 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 6: of course they were unprepared the police. I feel for 79 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 6: the police. They just can't win, you know that, prepare 80 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 6: and try to stop it, and they appeared as they 81 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 6: did a pretty good job in stopping it last night. 82 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 6: Or they don't prepare and it happens and everyone to 83 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 6: text them for not being prepared. It's a difficult job 84 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 6: for the police. I don't think it's. 85 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 2: Fair going to have big punch ons on the way 86 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 2: to the game. Is that the theory? 87 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 6: Well, I think they were just. 88 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 2: Going to march and seeing and that's flares. 89 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 6: The flares being the major problem.

I sort of 157 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 8: keep away from it completely. 158 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 2: And you're saying staging is not a normal part of 159 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 2: the game. 160 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 4: It is. 161 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 10: It is normal. 162 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 8: But that was that went over the top. That was 163 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 8: not It was not a game. It was just too much. 164 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 8: There's too much anger a couple of the Melbourne City players, 165 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 8: the look on their on their faces and all that 166 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 8: they weren't playing, they were there for for for fighting. 167 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 8: So if we're watching that expect that is watching that 168 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 8: on TV, what do we expect from the actual people 169 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 8: watching from there?

What is meant to happen? Chris? When 182 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,719 Speaker 6: someone over actually give them me a low card? 183 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 8: Yes, yes they should be because because quite a number 184 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 8: of the attacks that were there, well as not the 185 00:08:55,480 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 8: actual tackles, they weren't really Uh that's severe. 186 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 6: Okay, So when someone gets a yellow card, what happens 187 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:05,319 Speaker 6: to them? 188 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 8: The yellow card should be given, not to the player tackling, 189 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 8: to the player. 190 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 2: Acting images that an ankle is not being shattered in 191 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 2: five places and they can jump up and run off. 192 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 6: My point being is what then happens when you get 193 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 6: the yellow card for acting? What happens to you? 194 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 8: Well, if you get another yellow card. 195 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 6: You're out, Okay, So it's a warning. 196 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 2: Yellow makes a red. 197 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 5: Good morning, yeah, good morning. 198 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 11: I follow the English League and last night was the 199 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 11: first full game of Australian soccer I watched, and I 200 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 11: was so disappointed because the amount it looked like the 201 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 11: snipers on the rugs of the way some of these players. 202 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 2: It doesn't happen in the European leagues when you're watching. 203 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 5: Last night, they were that bad, were they? It's a 204 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 5: scourge on the game. Imagine the AFL players. Imagine while 205 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:06,679 Speaker 5: some of. 206 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 6: Them do and do you think not as. 207 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 5: Bad as Maynard going down like that? They're dropping like 208 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 5: flies on the soccer pitch. It's a disgrace. 209 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 11: I watched the ladies' rugby league State of Origin the 210 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 11: other night and they were so skillful and so tough. 211 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 11: I think these soccer players need to watch that before 212 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 11: they go on the field. It was embarrassing. 213 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 6: I think it's it's worse in Australia than it is 214 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 6: in Europe. Is it? Is it because the refereeing is 215 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:36,719 Speaker 6: not as strong on it. 216 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 11: I don't know. Maybe the skill levels not there so 217 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 11: they need to get the ball somehow. I don't know 218 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 11: what it is. I was looking for snipers on the 219 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 11: roof of Amy. 220 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 2: Hey, Dean, can I ask you just watch any sport 221 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 2: that's on or did you particularly turn on the women's 222 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 2: State of Origin? 223 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 11: I look on from Queensland originally, I live out in 224 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 11: Country Victoria now and the standard of female rugby league 225 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 11: just been getting better and better and I love watching 226 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:11,559 Speaker 11: the female rugby league.

If you want to soccer. 246 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 5: Chance, moving on. 247 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 6: I love talking to anyone who wants to talk to this. 248 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 6: I don't get a lot of people who want to 249 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 6: talk to us, so let's let's let them all help. 250 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 6: So anyone who wants to call, please do. 251 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 5: Premier de center Allen has announced Victorian farmers will temporarily 252 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 5: be spared the increase of the controversial emergency. 253 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 2: Services announcement just came out of nowhere on Friday. Quick 254 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 2: turn around, that very quick turnaround, like a week ten days, 255 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 2: not even quite ten days after the budget when there 256 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 2: was a massive protest on Budget Day on the steps 257 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 2: of Parliament. No Night was sticking with it. No Night 258 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 2: was digging with it. No, no, Well twenty four to 259 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 2: rout affected areas. You can have a pause on a wait, 260 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 2: the whole state primary producers, you can all have a 261 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 2: pause for a year. 262 00:12:59,120 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 12: Great. 263 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 2: I don't reckon it's going to come back in next 264 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 2: year either, because there's a little thing a few months 265 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 2: after that the next budget called the state election. Yes 266 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 2: it must be gone. I think it's going to be gone. 267 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 6: And so part of that is obviously a very good 268 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 6: thing for the farmer. So they've had a victory and 269 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 6: they were jumping up and down saying, well it's still 270 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,839 Speaker 6: not enough. And they're going to negotiate even more, try 271 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 6: and get it reduced even more, and obviously extend the freeze, 272 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 6: which I agree with you. I think the freeze, well, 273 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 6: at the very least the freeze. 274 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 2: Wich it's a freeze for the next financial year, so 275 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 2: mid twenty twenty five to mid twenty twenty six. So 276 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 2: I just don't see a government going into next year's 277 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 2: budget going it's back baby back on everybody right across 278 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:40,680 Speaker 2: the entire state. 279 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 6: Particularly in marginal seats around rural areas, one of which 280 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 6: their own MP there was actually jumping up and down 281 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 6: about it. So there's that, and there's the drought rat 282 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 6: relief package, which a lot of farmers said the government 283 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 6: was dragged to the table kicking and screaming about it. Effectively, 284 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 6: the five thousand dollars that was for those from drat 285 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 6: affected areas has now been extended statewide and it's now 286 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 6: been doubled to the really badly affected areas in South. 287 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 2: And I think we can use it for other things 288 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 2: like cartage, not just for infrastructure on your farm. 289 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 6: And they've got a task force which involves farmers, government, bankers, 290 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 6: mental health experts that are going to meet Interestingly, their 291 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 6: first meeting is meant to be this week in a 292 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 6: drat affected area, so it'll be interesting to see how 293 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 6: that is received. Once again, the farmers say way too little, 294 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 6: way too late. At least the government and the VFF 295 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 6: have been involved, and even the head of the VFF 296 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 6: on Friday, Brad Hoskin said, we thought early on that 297 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 6: we weren't being heard, we weren't being listened to. At 298 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 6: the very least, this is the start of the process, 299 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 6: and he emphasized, and I agree it is the start, 300 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 6: only the start. 301 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 2: As long as all the members of this task force 302 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 2: are still able to be just as strident and firm 303 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 2: and honest in their feedback outs side of the task 304 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 2: force room, it's a good idea to get them all 305 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 2: involved there, just better not be any sort of this 306 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 2: conversation has to stay in this room, or you have 307 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 2: to be polite to us to stay in this room. No, 308 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 2: the advocacy has to be just as strong outside that 309 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 2: room as it is inside that room, ongoing when you're 310 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 2: sitting on a task force like that. 311 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 6: But already they're getting advice because obviously they had a 312 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 6: big protest down in which you'll see yesterday saying it 313 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 6: is not enough, we need more, and they've got another 314 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 6: protest this afternoon or this morning as well. Down in 315 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 6: Western Victoria. 316 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 5: I saw about a one minute piece, what do you 317 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 5: young ones call it a moving picture selfie or something 318 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 5: on Instagram? 319 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 2: Do you mean real? 320 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's it right, a farmer who was he was 321 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:50,239 Speaker 5: a CFA Volfish chance real. He was a CFA volunteer 322 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 5: who had been to his first fatality. He was a farmer. 323 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 5: It was emotional the point where I was going to 324 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 5: actually lift the audio and play it on this very show. 325 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 5: But it was just his emotion about being on the 326 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 5: land and a message to the government what you're doing Roscoe? 327 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 13: Good morning, yeah, good morning team. The thirty nine million bucks, 328 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 13: does that mean is that the money that we're going 329 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 13: to pay us tax or is it actually money they're 330 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 13: going to give us.

The increase in the 334 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 6: amount of drought relief, I think is what you're talking about. 335 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 6: Thirty seven point seven million dollars. Yes, it is tax 336 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 6: payers money and yeah, you're right there there.

I'm 345 00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 3: an AFL man. I was there with an iflremership player, 346 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 3: Ray Wilson. I haven't burned to a local soccer game. 347 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 3: I had the privilege of burn Now. I thought, I 348 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 3: think you guys are giving it a bit of a 349 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 3: bum rap. I thought the atmosphere was fantastic. There were 350 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 3: victory and Melbourne Cities. People were sitting together, joking, people walking. 351 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 3: I was in the Swan Street before and after. I 352 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 3: may have missed the flares, but I thought the crowd 353 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 3: was behaving in a fantastic way and it was a 354 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 3: unique experience, the singing and the chanting. On the question 355 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 3: of diving, yeah, there was some diving, but there were 356 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 3: also some pretty serious injuries and when you're up pretty close, 357 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 3: they're not all acts. But anyway, that's a blot on 358 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 3: the game. But I just wanted to get the get 359 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,360 Speaker 3: the needle back in the balance. 360 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:49,479 Speaker 14: A little bit. 361 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 3: I just think I think every year there's a sort 362 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 3: of a bit of an affirmation by to give soccer 363 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 3: a hard time. So I was I was a real 364 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 3: fan and I love the and I recently got back 365 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 3: from England where I saw west Ham and Tatland plan. 366 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 3: I reckon this game compared favorably how. 367 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 2: Much how much LOGI Award winning acting was there on 368 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 2: the pitch for yours, Brian, Look. 369 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 3: I reckon, I reckon fifty percent of them were were acts, 370 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 3: but there were there were a large number of you know, 371 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 3: you know, real responses to being kicked in the ankle. 372 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:28,479 Speaker 3: That changed my view a bit. 373 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 2: When you see both and on the way in, when 374 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,239 Speaker 2: you were heading into the game, did you see any 375 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 2: of the big police presents outside or down the street 376 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 2: Swan Street. 377 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 3: I did hide it, and I'm a great supporter of, 378 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 3: you know, all the things that Nick was saying about 379 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 3: the police, but I did think it was a bit 380 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 3: of overkill. It was almost like anticipating arm again. And 381 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 3: then I didn't think that was appropriate, not not on 382 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 3: what I. 383 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 6: Saw, on what I experienced, but I do feel for 384 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 6: the police. They can't win, can't they If you send 385 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 6: too many people who you've sent too many people, you 386 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 6: don't send enough. Looked like a pillock if something happens. 387 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 5: Thanks Brian to Gloria. 388 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:07,919 Speaker 15: Good morning, Good morning team.

They try and match that atmosphere. 412 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 2: Do you reckon you need it for the atmosphere? 413 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 10: L Well, I tell you we were there. When we 414 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 10: first got there, there was we watched the game between 415 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,479 Speaker 10: inter Milan and I think it was Genoa and they 416 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 10: were very upset, the fans because into Milan should have 417 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 10: been in the final and they weren't, so they were dead. 418 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 10: They were just in mourning and then a couple of 419 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:51,479 Speaker 10: flares came out and that's what built up the crowd 420 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 10: and that's why all the cheering and everything. They actually 421 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:56,120 Speaker 10: encouraged it over there. 422 00:20:56,240 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 6: But yeah, that's if that's the Italian culture, it's the 423 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 6: Italican culture. But it's still. 424 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 10: Dangerous, and it's dangerous. 425 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 9: It is. 426 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 6: It is very dangerous, and you only need one buffhead, 427 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 6: and unfortunately sporting crowds are there are some buffheads amongst 428 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 6: it to do it wrong and you can seriously injure someone. 429 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 5: Thanks lead to John someone so hy John, Hey you 430 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 5: doing good? 431 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 16: Thanks Darren, thanks for inviting me.

I am a 443 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 16: football fan, and I'm an ex cop. But in nineteen 444 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 16: ninety there were twelve Poyce who set out to stop 445 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 16: the drinking it carols by candlelight in at my music bowl. 446 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 16: We locked up, you know, thirty nine offenders or something 447 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 16: for drugs and all sorts of things half an hour 448 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:10,160 Speaker 16: before the started, and they had a beautiful carols by catalyze. 449 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 16: There was twelve of us. You've asked how many police 450 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 16: are you supposed to send out to these occasions? I'll 451 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 16: ask you how many police were standing in the streets 452 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 16: outside the MCG watching the football yesterday? How many as many? 453 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 6: I reckon? But at the football, at the football at 454 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 6: eighty three thousand, you would have more than one hundred 455 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 6: police there. They just wouldn't all be gathered in one spot. 456 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 2: No, I don't reckon, you'd have a hundred police. 457 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 6: I reckon, it's pretty close. 458 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 16: Can I just have a little say? 459 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 6: Yes? Sorry, can I have a little say? 460 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 16: There might have been one hundred police inside. What I 461 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 16: said was, you don't see one or two hundred police 462 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 16: standing outside the MCG before the game starts in a circle. 463 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 16: You don't see that. And those people were there. The 464 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 16: police were there to try and prove event violence and 465 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 16: wrongful doing. They want to let people do their own 466 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 16: thing in their own streets, in their own territory. Now, 467 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 16: what should happen The soccer federation or the football federation, 468 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 16: whatever it's called, they should pay for all of this. 469 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 16: You can't just every time someone wants to go a 470 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 16: footing of football or soccer. You can't just organize one 471 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 16: hundred and fifty place to stand in the main street. 472 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 16: That is ridiculous. And what we are doing now, we're 473 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 16: coming down to their low life level. You can't let 474 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 16: flares off, you can't injure people, you can't hit referees, 475 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 16: you can't cut nets apart. Can't the public see that? 476 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 16: We can't condone it. If you want to do that, 477 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,360 Speaker 16: you get locked up and your federation pays the bills. 478 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,719 Speaker 16: We can't just keep doing this, the government should at 479 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 16: least do some draw up, some draft and some legislation, 480 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 16: and just to prevent these things from happening, give the 481 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:07,679 Speaker 16: police some powers before the game starts. And those incidents 482 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:12,880 Speaker 16: did apparently occur before the game star That's my opinion. 483 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 16: And it's not about the police in the ground and 484 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,239 Speaker 16: the police in the ground in the AFL pay for 485 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 16: I must say. 486 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 6: I know there are provisions for sporting organizations to pay 487 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 6: for the police presence, but given that it was out 488 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 6: on Swan Street and what at least away from Amy Stadium, 489 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 6: I don't know whether that is included in what the 490 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 6: Soccer Federation would be paying for. Thanks John, that's a 491 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:36,919 Speaker 6: gray area.

I've 507 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 12: been a third generation farmer here where I am, and 508 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 12: you know, a big decision I've made. But for my 509 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 12: well being and my animals, to get them through, I've 510 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 12: decided to sell half off. 511 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,199 Speaker 2: Scott, Is there a current market for them? Will there 512 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 2: be buyas? 513 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 12: There is? Yes, We're fortunate in this route that there 514 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 12: is still a market for them at the moment, so 515 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,439 Speaker 12: I will still get good money for them when I 516 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 12: sell them. But the problem is that I won't have 517 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 12: the income of their lambs going forward, and I'll only 518 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 12: have half the income. They're breeders, Yes, they're breeders. 519 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 6: And Scott, for someone who's spent his entire life, I 520 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 6: know your third generation. You've spent your entire life on 521 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 6: the land. To have to bake a big decision like that, 522 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 6: how does it knock you around. 523 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 12: I'm comfortable with the decision I've made I've made it 524 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 12: because I've planned ahead. I've looked at my finances, I've 525 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 12: looked at the feed that's available to feed the stuff 526 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 12: going forward, and it's getting that hard to buy feed 527 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 12: at the moment, to buy fighter that I would prefer to, 528 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 12: and I'll be able to get the other half of 529 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 12: my animals through winter, no worries at all. So I've 530 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 12: made that decision to drop my numbers now so that 531 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 12: so that I'll be able to manage through. 532 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,959 Speaker 2: Would it be your intention to increase your numbers again 533 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,120 Speaker 2: and what sort of period of time would that take? Scott? 534 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 12: So, I've got no doubt that although I'm getting good 535 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 12: money from my sheep now, if I go to buy 536 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 12: back in again in springtime or early next year, that 537 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 12: the price will probably be double because there's going to 538 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 12: be that many less animals around. So I'll only be 539 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 12: able to buy half the mount back in again, and 540 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 12: then it'll take me a number of years to breed 541 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,680 Speaker 12: up and get up to where I have been. 542 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 6: Okay, Scott, So the government two big measures. First of all, 543 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 6: the government on Friday froze the emergency service levy for 544 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 6: everyone all around the state. The primary producers is that 545 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 6: enough or is it just a start. 546 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 12: It's just to start. It's a good start, but it's 547 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 12: just to start. I think the problem is how we 548 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,199 Speaker 12: got to this position in the first place. And I 549 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 12: think rural Victoria is really hurting. We're in the middle 550 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,120 Speaker 12: of a drought, as we've already spoke about, but the 551 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 12: fact that the government have come to rural farmers and 552 00:27:55,720 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 12: volunteers who spend their time fighting fire in national parks 553 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 12: for the benefit of all Victorians during Christmas and holidays 554 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 12: and whenever they need to and get called out, they 555 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 12: go and volunteer, and then to put such a big 556 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 12: cost onto those volunteers when they're in the middle of 557 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 12: a drought, when they're in the middle of the toughest 558 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 12: times that they've had in living memory, it's just been 559 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 12: it's real, been a real hit to rural Victoria. And 560 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 12: I think that trying to get that through the government, 561 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,919 Speaker 12: trying to get them to understand that the impact that 562 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 12: this has had has been k over the last year. 563 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 2: What do you reckon was the final thing that got 564 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 2: the message through. I asked that because I'm at I've 565 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 2: been at media conferences with Premier, with Minister Treasurer and 566 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 2: every time you asked a single question about why now, 567 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 2: why you're doing this to these communities, they kept bringing 568 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 2: it back around to climate change means that there is 569 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 2: an even greater risk of fast and all of these 570 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 2: communities are at even greater at risk and that's why 571 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,479 Speaker 2: it absolutely has to happen. Over and over again, they 572 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 2: said it when clearly, clearly the community was saying to 573 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 2: them for weeks and weeks, if not months, this isn't right, 574 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 2: this is going to hurt us too much. What do 575 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 2: you reckon? Was the tipping point for them? 576 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 12: I'm sure the I'm sure the community's rallying and being 577 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 12: vocal and you know the process, the protests. Sorry, and 578 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 12: also of VFF. We've had really good engagement with government 579 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 12: for the past few weeks and trying to get them to 580 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 12: understand the impact on real Victorians that this is having. 581 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 12: And I think they've recognized that, or they're starting to recognize, 582 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 12: and with this the Drought Task Force that they've appointed 583 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 12: at the moment and actually going to go out to 584 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 12: regional Victoria engage with regional Victorians. Hopefully they're going to 585 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 12: get an understanding of the impact that this is having 586 00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 12: out there. Because I think this announcement and this levy 587 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 12: has impacted the CFA going forward. I think for a 588 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 12: long time into the future. Volunteers have had enough that 589 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 12: they don't feel respected, they don't feel appreciated, and even 590 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 12: if the Fire Services levy gets dropped, I think it's 591 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 12: really impacted the CFA's ability going forward and volunteers to 592 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 12: be there to put their hand up and to protect 593 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 12: our rural communities. 594 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 5: You're right on the paddock now, I can hear the 595 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 5: sheep in the background. 596 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 12: Yes, yes, I am. I've just stopped. They're all standing 597 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 12: here looking at me, going, when are you going to 598 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 12: put some more grain out? 599 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 2: Hungry? Hungry? 600 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 6: So having what you've just said, Scott so is therefore 601 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 6: it's really important. There there was a protest in which 602 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 6: you'll see yesterday. There's another one further down the southwest today. 603 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 6: So it's important to keep that pressure going because it 604 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 6: looks as though it's having an impact. So keep those 605 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 6: protests going. 606 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 12: Yeah, I think, so keep it, keep it in the 607 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 12: everybody's mind because obviously in rural Victoria we're only a 608 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 12: very small proportion of the population and we need to 609 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 12: get everybody to understand the impact that this is having 610 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 12: on rural Victorians, not only the emergency services levy, but 611 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 12: the drought also. And I'm sure everybody in Melbourne doesn't 612 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 12: spend all their time in Melbourne and they get out 613 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 12: to regional Victoria occasionally, and regional Victoria is really. 614 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 9: Hurting at the moment. 615 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 12: So if any way they can get out and support 616 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 12: rural communities, get out and visit rural communities and put 617 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 12: some money into the economy, it'll be much appreciated. 618 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 5: Hey, what's a good one of your sheep? Worth per head? 619 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 12: My older shape here at the moment are about two 620 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,479 Speaker 12: hundred dollars and lambs have actually hit record prices at 621 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 12: the moment they're about tops of those are at four 622 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 12: hundred dollars going forward, because there's a lot of breeding 623 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 12: animals going out of the system, there's going to be 624 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 12: a shortage of of protein going forward, of beef and 625 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 12: lamb going forward next year. So I would imagine next 626 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 12: year prices might escalate even in the shops. 627 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 2: You're not selling them, sorry, you're not selling them as 628 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 2: breed as you're selling them as meat meat. 629 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 6: Yes, and that raises a really important point which will 630 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 6: affect city people. Does that ultimately mean meat prices will 631 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 6: go up at the super much. 632 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 12: I definitely think it will have an impact. There has 633 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 12: been good rains in Queensland and New South Wales which 634 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 12: will help up there, so they'll probably boost their numbers 635 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 12: up there. But there is a large number in Victoria 636 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 12: and South Australia. South Australia has been in drought for 637 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 12: two years, Southwest Victoria has been in dropped for two years. 638 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 12: There are huge numbers of animals that have gone out 639 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 12: of the system and it's definitely going to make an 640 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 12: impact going forward in the next six twelve months. 641 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 5: What's the life expectancy of a good breeder? How long 642 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 5: do they last? 643 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 12: Sheep for about seven eight years? Oh maximum? And yeah, 644 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 12: cattle will be ten or twelve years. 645 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, interesting stuff. And you're feeding them grain? 646 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 6: What sort? 647 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 12: They've got a bit of a shandy today. They've got 648 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 12: some oats and barley and some wheat. 649 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 5: Oh you put a bit of milk on that and 650 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 5: I'm interested. 651 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 2: I leave it for the sheep. 652 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 6: You've got a Robert farmer. 653 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 2: Sorry, Scott, that's terrible. 654 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 5: Good on your Scott, good place, and yeah you're a 655 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 5: good man. Good luck with beautiful day too. You're in 656 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 5: the sun at shining up there. 657 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 6: He doesn't want to hear. 658 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 12: If it's not raining, it might as well be sunny. 659 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 9: So yeah, but. 660 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 6: You prefer it to be raining. 661 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, good luck with Scott. 662 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 6: So I was actually quite surprised. We went up to 663 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 6: Scott's place on Friday for the announcement and it's only 664 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 6: an hour strive out of Melbourne, but just going into 665 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 6: his paddocks, just how absolutely bone dry it was, even 666 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 6: in the middle of the start of winter where there's 667 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 6: meant to be a green tinge.

But the 699 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 4: problem with falling with this current what the rustlers is 700 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 4: it's a small group but the wholly organized and they're 701 00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 4: finching them in vans and small trailers you can't see, 702 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 4: and they're straight off the. 703 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 6: Slaughter's small numbers, so it's not when. 704 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 5: The advertise know that there's something suss If a high 705 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 5: aced van pulls up with about half a dozen sheep 706 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 5: in the back. 707 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 4: They're not going to an advertise, they're going to a backyard. 708 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 2: Oh you can tell them pretty easily, hang them up 709 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 2: skin the. 710 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 4: More going investigation. 711 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 5: Ok, thanks Tony, Thanks Tony Rowan, Good morning, good morning. 712 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 19: Yeah. 713 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 7: Look, the previous toiler was talking about the fact he 714 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:12,840 Speaker 7: was going to have to sell half his sheep, or 715 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 7: he was about to tomorrow. It suggests to me that 716 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 7: if he's only going to have half his income next year, 717 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,359 Speaker 7: then the government's just kicked the ball down the road, 718 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 7: haven't they. 719 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:26,839 Speaker 14: Because its work. 720 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,399 Speaker 12: That's a good argument this year. 721 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 6: That's a good argument unless, of course, it rains and 722 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 6: that's what they're really going to hope for. But you're right, 723 00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,840 Speaker 6: it is. Many of the farmers were saying on Friday. 724 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 6: This has kicked the situation down the road, and the 725 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 6: freeze is only the start. It's a reasonable start, but 726 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 6: it's only the start because they need so much more help. 727 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:48,839 Speaker 6: If it doesn't right, No. 728 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 2: I reckon, I get rid of it entirely. I don't 729 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:51,359 Speaker 2: think it comes back next year. 730 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,320 Speaker 6: No, not in an election. 731 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 5: Thanks for the call. We're running a bit behind my 732 00:36:55,920 --> 00:37:00,359 Speaker 5: bad for two we've got a minute, books a w 733 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 5: We've got a minute for you. Gary. 734 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 20: The present's police at the soccer administration. It's not just 735 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 20: to prepare, right, you know, to escort them to the game. 736 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 20: I mean, okay, they were all wars and they're lady 737 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 20: and there in vocal. But if they got out of 738 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,839 Speaker 20: hand started smashing up property, that's where the public would 739 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 20: get really upset. 740 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 21: You know. 741 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 20: We now do a bit of silly and they they 742 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 20: do this sort of tribal change and all that. But 743 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 20: someone got drunk and started smashing windows and shops and 744 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 20: sworm that's where it would get really people get knicky 745 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,839 Speaker 20: on the police. So that's what they over prepare, I guess. 746 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 20: And that's just something that they're prepared to do because 747 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 20: we need to just in case. 748 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 6: I much prefer them to wive, but prepare them. 749 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 2: Except with the over preparing makes people want to add 750 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:49,839 Speaker 2: up more. 751 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 6: I think you're good. Yeah, yeah, in this particular case, 752 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 6: they being collected. 753 00:37:54,680 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 5: Anyway, it's eleven another hour left over some level Sunday 754 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:09,760 Speaker 5: Morning with Darren Heidi m Nick. Do you remember Martha Jones, 755 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 5: Marsa Jones and the cookies? 756 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 6: Yeah, a little bit, a little bit before my time. 757 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 6: You're way older than me. 758 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 2: Remember, I have no idea what either of you are 759 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 2: talking about. 760 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 5: No, we've certainly heard that Master Jones sadly passed away overnight. 761 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:27,919 Speaker 6: Yeah, she announced I think last week she had lakemia. 762 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,359 Speaker 6: But obviously, yeah, and she was hoping to make it 763 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 6: through to our eightieth birthday but she didn't unfortunately. Yeah, 764 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:38,280 Speaker 6: but she she she actually which I just heard in 765 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:42,879 Speaker 6: the news, She actually did. She performed as a sort 766 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,319 Speaker 6: of the first act for the monkeys and those sorts 767 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 6: of people, so she had into the monkeys. 768 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 2: She does don't know the cookies. 769 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 5: Yeah, Graham has been hanging on Graham. Good morning to. 770 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 11: You are that's good. 771 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 22: I just wanted to make a comment and maybe asked 772 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 22: question about the Emergency Services levee. For weeks now, the 773 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 22: Allent government has been justifying their position quite strongly and 774 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 22: using adentifications like climate change and those sorts of things. 775 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 22: Now they're delaying it. Haidi has said that potentially they're 776 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 22: going to scrap it all together. What fills the gap 777 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 22: If you've identified the need and you've come out so 778 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 22: strongly to say these things need to be done in 779 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 22: order to be able to support the community, particularly rural 780 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:30,840 Speaker 22: What happens if they don't bring it in or what 781 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,320 Speaker 22: happens for the twelve months that it's not boardy. 782 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 19: Where did the money come from to the things that. 783 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 22: They said you needed? 784 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 2: So what it was due to bring in over the 785 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 2: next year was around seventy three million dollars and so 786 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 2: the budget will forego that extra seventy three million dollars. 787 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:50,239 Speaker 2: The expansion of what was the Fire Services Levy to 788 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 2: this new levy Emergency Services Volunteer Fund is to pay 789 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 2: for a whole bunch of emergency services that used to 790 00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:02,360 Speaker 2: sit within government normal government business. They've moved them across 791 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 2: to this. As part of the justification for greatly increasing 792 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 2: the Fire Services Levy was to then pay for all 793 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 2: of these additional emergency services that were previously funded through 794 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,360 Speaker 2: just normal government business. They'll just continue to be funded 795 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 2: through normal government business. They weren't all getting huge extra 796 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:25,800 Speaker 2: injections on the basis of this massive increase to this fund. 797 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 2: There was, yes to be some increased spending for the 798 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 2: CFA and for fire services, but not a massive extra 799 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 2: injection of funds into them. It was just to become 800 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,280 Speaker 2: a different funding stream to pay for all the services 801 00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 2: that the government was already paying to run to free 802 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 2: up some money in a different part of their budget 803 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 2: for whatever they feel like spending it on. 804 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 6: And Graham, the Treasurer, said on Friday that it would 805 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,319 Speaker 6: not affect any of their current commitments. But you're right, 806 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 6: if in the long term they don't get that money, 807 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 6: they're going to have to find it elsewhere, and you 808 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 6: would assume that from the taxpayer, either from the taxpayer 809 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 6: or cutty or debt. 810 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, or maybe they could at a different part of 811 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 2: government spending and divert money away from that into this 812 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:09,600 Speaker 2: core business. 813 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:11,640 Speaker 12: Yeah. 814 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:19,280 Speaker 22: It's just another example of a government that is unable 815 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,280 Speaker 22: to manage finances, balance the books, I think. 816 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 6: But I also think, and they wouldn't admit this on Friday, 817 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 6: but I also think they grossly underestimated the reaction in 818 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 6: the Bush. And I don't think there are enough people 819 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 6: within Caucus saying it is really really bad out there, 820 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 6: and this has been going on for two years. It 821 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,799 Speaker 6: is really bad out there, and this is going to 822 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 6: be the volcano. This is going to be the explosion. 823 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 6: You've actually set off the volcano by doing this, And 824 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 6: I don't think. 825 00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 2: They realized that they thought they're cell job. They thought 826 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 2: they spin job on it would be strong enough that 827 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,080 Speaker 2: people would understand the case they were making and understand 828 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 2: their justification for it. 829 00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 6: Delusional. 830 00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:00,279 Speaker 2: But what they're looking what I think farmer's primary users 831 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 2: we're looking at, was that added cost to them at 832 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:05,360 Speaker 2: a really difficult time. Brian Freddie could have told you 833 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 2: that was a bad thing, like a terrible call to make, 834 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:09,919 Speaker 2: so I had to be I mean, it's the second 835 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 2: thing they've walked away from in the space of a week. 836 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 2: I mean, suddenly we could introduce the ban on machette 837 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,760 Speaker 2: sales much sooner than September one. Now we can suddenly 838 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 2: hit pause on something that they believed was entirely justifiable 839 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 2: in the wake of pushback. And the reason I say 840 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:25,880 Speaker 2: I don't think it comes back next year is that 841 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,239 Speaker 2: next year is an election year. They're not going to 842 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 2: want to go Graham into a budget next year putting 843 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,279 Speaker 2: an extra charge back on farmers. Even if we have 844 00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 2: a spectacular spring in summer, farmers aren't suddenly going to 845 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,879 Speaker 2: be bouncing back to positions in a couple of years ago. 846 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 2: There will be just as much fury at a charge 847 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 2: coming back at you on top of what you're already facing, 848 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 2: and in an election year the government would be mad, 849 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 2: absolutely mad to do that. 850 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:57,080 Speaker 5: Thanks Graham for the call. Now Machetes the ban, the 851 00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:00,400 Speaker 5: band Machetes are still being bought though from into are 852 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,359 Speaker 5: they or online from anywhere in the world. 853 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 2: I think the big retailers, your reputable retailers, took them 854 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,800 Speaker 2: off the shelves months ago, back when the first when 855 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 2: talk of a band sort. 856 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 5: Of something's banned, like prohibition Nike, it all goes under it. 857 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:18,839 Speaker 6: But I also don't understand how in this online world now, 858 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,239 Speaker 6: when you've got your Ebays and your Amazons, how a 859 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 6: ban in Victoria, how they can actually stop people buying 860 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:27,879 Speaker 6: it online in Victoria when they're selling them to the world. 861 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 6: And I don't understand the legality of that well, and 862 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 6: I don't understand the process of that, the logistics of 863 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 6: that particularly scene. And this is a problem why there 864 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:38,680 Speaker 6: is not a national band. If there's going to be, 865 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:42,080 Speaker 6: there should be a national band. And Victoria, you know, 866 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 6: the Victoria is bouncing up and down saying we're leading 867 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 6: an Australia wide first and that's great, but you know, 868 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 6: there is also a lack of point of doing it 869 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:51,919 Speaker 6: when you're on your pack. 870 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,960 Speaker 5: Let's find out more by talking to Gary Mortimer, Professor 871 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 5: of Marketing and Consumer Behavior at Queensland University of Technology. 872 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 5: Ban on machetes in Victoria almost impossible, I'm sure Gary. 873 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:04,320 Speaker 5: Do you agree? 874 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 18: Yeah? 875 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 23: I agree, it's very difficult to do statewide bands. You're 876 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 23: right probably the need to bring in a national ban. 877 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:16,400 Speaker 23: But even with a national ban on those types of weapons, 878 00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:19,840 Speaker 23: it's incredibly difficult to police and to monitor. You're right 879 00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 23: about the online channels. You can jump onto a variety 880 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 23: of online international marketplaces and buy those types of products. 881 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:28,440 Speaker 13: You could buy them privately. 882 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:31,319 Speaker 23: There's nothing stopping me selling machete out of my back 883 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 23: garage and to people. And if they put an age 884 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:38,480 Speaker 23: ban on it, nothing stopping an eighteen ninety year old, 885 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 23: you know, buying them and then providing them to fifteen 886 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 23: sixteen year olds. It is incredibly challenging to police monitor. 887 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:48,920 Speaker 6: Is there anything that can be done, say a reputable 888 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:54,360 Speaker 6: organization like and Worldwide eBay, Amazon? Is there anything forcing 889 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:59,400 Speaker 6: them or to do something so they don't sell to Victorians? 890 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 6: Is there anything it works? 891 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:01,359 Speaker 24: Yeah? 892 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:05,839 Speaker 23: Listen, geo tracking technology, you know, if you're based you know, 893 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 23: in Victoria. You're trying to buy a machete or a 894 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 23: large knife off of an eBay or Amazon, you know, 895 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,280 Speaker 23: you have to have a delivery address. It would prevent 896 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 23: those types of sales going to that event. But you 897 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:25,880 Speaker 23: know there's ways around that. VPNs, for example, may you 898 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:29,279 Speaker 23: know hyde you a delivery address. You could have a 899 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 23: delivery dress to a post office and then zip over 900 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:36,640 Speaker 23: the border and collect the item. You know, freight forwarders 901 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,759 Speaker 23: can send it from a delivery address and then to 902 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 23: your address. You can use third parties as well. It 903 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:46,319 Speaker 23: becomes very complex. I think the Victorian government's made the 904 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 23: right position to put a ban in place, but I 905 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 23: guess the next challenge is how do you police that band? 906 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:54,080 Speaker 2: And you can't You can't buy those sounds of that really. 907 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, you can go store to store and 908 00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:57,120 Speaker 2: check that they're not on display. 909 00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 6: But they've got fourteen people of the. 910 00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 2: Task force, fourteen people who are also meant to be 911 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:05,320 Speaker 2: looking after renters, also meant to be checking on cigarettes 912 00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 2: and vapes, and. 913 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:10,400 Speaker 6: They're flat out so gary. But also, I supposely the 914 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,359 Speaker 6: question also is whether your EBAs and your Amazons they 915 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:15,319 Speaker 6: might sort of give it, you know, flap their lips 916 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,560 Speaker 6: and yeah, sure, we'll give it a go for you. 917 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,400 Speaker 6: But do they really go in hard to help Victoria 918 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 6: with the band, given they're dealing with the world and 919 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,120 Speaker 6: Victoria is a very very small market. 920 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:29,640 Speaker 23: Well, I think you'll find most referable retailers and online 921 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:33,280 Speaker 23: marketplaces like Amazon are very compliant and will work well 922 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,320 Speaker 23: and continue to work well with governments and legislators to 923 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 23: affect changes. But ultimately it's about when they're in place, 924 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:43,799 Speaker 23: how do you then control for it or how do 925 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 23: you remove it. You talk briefly about the issues around vapes, 926 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:51,600 Speaker 23: and we've obviously similar the criminality around that. I mean, 927 00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:54,360 Speaker 23: I know directly end if my apartment building, there's a 928 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 23: small business itself apes, it's been there for months. There's 929 00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:02,800 Speaker 23: unfortunately not enough I guess control mechanisms in place, personnel 930 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:06,480 Speaker 23: on the ground to remove them. So I think Retoil's 931 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 23: doing the right thing. We saw coals And a few 932 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 23: months ago remove all knives from this store for an 933 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:14,400 Speaker 23: awful event happening up here in Queensland with the stabbing 934 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:17,440 Speaker 23: of a worker. So the knives are off the shelves, 935 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:19,240 Speaker 23: but it doesn't stop people getting hold of the knives. 936 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,240 Speaker 23: You can walk through a kitchen retailer and find knives 937 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,080 Speaker 23: very quickly. At an army disposal business will also saw 938 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:24,600 Speaker 23: them as well. 939 00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, and the other thing is, if it's not machetes, 940 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 5: there's other implements. There are other tools available. I heard 941 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 5: a rumor that Bunnings are selling out of hatchets, so 942 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,440 Speaker 5: you've got to hold it's a different tool. But you know, 943 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:36,880 Speaker 5: what do you do? Where do you stop it? 944 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:39,480 Speaker 23: Well? I mean I think this comes back to sort 945 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,960 Speaker 23: of I guess the complexities and the facial complexities of 946 00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 23: not just use crime, but crime in general. 947 00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 24: And you walk through a. 948 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:50,640 Speaker 23: Buddy camping fishing store and you can pick up fishing knives, 949 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:54,600 Speaker 23: you know, where does it stop? You know, baseball bats 950 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 23: and the sporting goods retailer. Where does it stop? I mean, 951 00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:03,360 Speaker 23: ultimately it comes back to I guess, affecting appropriate time 952 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:07,600 Speaker 23: or criminal charges against people that are using these types 953 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:10,880 Speaker 23: of products. Banning them is one thing, but it's incredibly 954 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:12,760 Speaker 23: difficult to ban and also police. 955 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, hey, Gary, thanks for joining us on a Sunday morning. 956 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,719 Speaker 5: Gary Mortimer, Professor of Marketing and Consumer Behavior at the 957 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 5: Queensland University of Technology. 958 00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:23,960 Speaker 2: It is an interesting thing isn't it. And where this 959 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 2: is a ban purely on the sales, this doesn't do 960 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:29,320 Speaker 2: anything to remove a single one that's already out there 961 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 2: in the universe. 962 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:32,400 Speaker 6: In the world and start. 963 00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:36,359 Speaker 2: And one of the reasons that the government repeatedly said 964 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:38,839 Speaker 2: up until Monday, said that I have to wait till 965 00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 2: September one to bring in the ban on sales was 966 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,759 Speaker 2: that they wanted to work through our process of what 967 00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:48,239 Speaker 2: exemptions you can have, because the reason there are machetes 968 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:52,239 Speaker 2: in stores, giant knives like this in hardware stores, in 969 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,319 Speaker 2: boating cabbing, fishing stores, is that there is a use 970 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:58,360 Speaker 2: for them. There's an agricultural use for them. There's a 971 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:02,280 Speaker 2: use for them if you're a hamper having to slash 972 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,720 Speaker 2: your way through some areas of the bush to move around. 973 00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 2: There are farmers use them, there are reasons to use 974 00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 2: them to have them. That's why they've been a product 975 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:14,719 Speaker 2: that can be sold. And this is a blanket, like 976 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 2: an entire ban. That process with the exemptions and stuff 977 00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:20,600 Speaker 2: will still kick in in September. We just don't know 978 00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 2: what the exemptions will be. Hey, go about it. What 979 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:24,879 Speaker 2: piece of paper you have to show who's keeping track of. 980 00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 6: What's were, But in the meantime there are some veggie 981 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 6: farmers out in Gipslane in particular that need them and 982 00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 6: they can't buy them. Hopefully they've got enough to keep 983 00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:34,120 Speaker 6: them going through. 984 00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:36,439 Speaker 5: If you'd like to comment one double three six nine 985 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 5: three at nineteen past eleven and to George, good morning. 986 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:46,600 Speaker 18: Good morning. Nick McCallum interestingly called for a nationwide ban 987 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 18: on machetes. Well, you know, we have cabbage and colieflower 988 00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 18: growers here in Victoria, but there's not too many of them, 989 00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:56,160 Speaker 18: but they need them. 990 00:49:57,120 --> 00:49:59,560 Speaker 6: Make exemptions, George, make exemption. 991 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:06,799 Speaker 18: What about the thousands of cain and pineapple growers in 992 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 18: northern New South Wales and Queensland? Are you going to 993 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:11,680 Speaker 18: get a national band on that? 994 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,000 Speaker 6: Make exemption? Make exemptions. 995 00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 18: I'll make up exemptions for thousands. Go up to the 996 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:21,719 Speaker 18: Victoria market, do it all the time when in pineapple seasons. 997 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 18: On how they process them and cut the tops off 998 00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,520 Speaker 18: them and then how they skin them is you can 999 00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:28,480 Speaker 18: do that with a knife. You're a better man than 1000 00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:28,920 Speaker 18: I am. 1001 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 6: Well, clearly I'm not a better man than you are, 1002 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 6: but I make exemptions that exemptions are made for these 1003 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,759 Speaker 6: particular sorts of bands or laws all the time. And 1004 00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:44,160 Speaker 6: I'm sorry you missed us just before the break talking 1005 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,440 Speaker 6: about the fact that veggie farmers need them in Victoria, 1006 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:51,880 Speaker 6: particularly down in Gippsland. Cabbage, coffee, flower, those sorts of farmers. 1007 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:53,880 Speaker 18: Of course you do attempt she wants to. When the 1008 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,719 Speaker 18: police try and arrest them, can say, oh no, no, 1009 00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 18: I'm here at George. It's a little bit more in them, 1010 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:01,800 Speaker 18: but I'm a veggie farmer. 1011 00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:07,839 Speaker 6: It's George.

It's pretty straightforward. 1015 00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:20,840 Speaker 6: It's like exemptions that are made for all sorts of 1016 00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:24,520 Speaker 6: things for farming.

First? Do they not 1086 00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:01,040 Speaker 9: know where these gangs are? They not know where these 1087 00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:03,040 Speaker 9: crimes are being committed with you, Frank, Well. 1088 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:04,800 Speaker 2: They didn't know these two were going to get together 1089 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:07,719 Speaker 2: at a Northland shopping center the other weekend and run 1090 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:08,919 Speaker 2: around at each other with something. 1091 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:11,240 Speaker 6: Part of the problem with that part of the problem. 1092 00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:14,200 Speaker 9: They monitor social media, surely they would. 1093 00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:17,000 Speaker 2: Know, Yeah, but often often planned fight. 1094 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:22,799 Speaker 6: It's often really difficult to all the time of the 1095 00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:25,760 Speaker 6: social media. That makes it difficult, But your point is true. 1096 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:28,759 Speaker 6: I mean, I was quite horrified that a number of 1097 00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:32,320 Speaker 6: people who were involved in that incident were given. 1098 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:35,359 Speaker 2: By several were several and multar points. Several were out 1099 00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:37,400 Speaker 2: on bail on some pretty serious offenses. 1100 00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:42,000 Speaker 9: And so they know who these people are. Why aren't 1101 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:42,959 Speaker 9: they monitoring them? 1102 00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:44,800 Speaker 6: And contrast, we're. 1103 00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:46,200 Speaker 2: Going to monitor all of them, but they would be 1104 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:48,400 Speaker 2: great to be mind read? Is we just freaking can't? 1105 00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:51,360 Speaker 5: Well, how do you monitor across the border? 1106 00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:55,719 Speaker 9: Let's contrast that with last night? How heavy was the 1107 00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:57,840 Speaker 9: police president on Swan Street? 1108 00:55:58,640 --> 00:55:59,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, it looked pretty heavy to me. 1109 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:03,840 Speaker 9: Stay can mount in an operation like that? Why can't 1110 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:06,840 Speaker 9: they mountain and operation at a shopping center and a 1111 00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:09,040 Speaker 9: suburbs You want a hundred. 1112 00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:11,440 Speaker 2: Cops standing outside of police outside of shopping center? 1113 00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:12,600 Speaker 9: Why not? 1114 00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:16,839 Speaker 6: Do you want any? Do you want any cops doing 1115 00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:18,719 Speaker 6: anything else? Because if you're going to put one hundred 1116 00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:22,399 Speaker 6: cops outside every shopping center in Melbourne or a Victoria, 1117 00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:23,799 Speaker 6: then you're not going to have a lot of cops 1118 00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 6: for everything else. 1119 00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 9: I'm not saying they do this all the time, but 1120 00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:29,480 Speaker 9: they can mount an operation. 1121 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:34,920 Speaker 6: And I think you'll find it. But you're also the 1122 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 6: police have been quite out there about the fact they 1123 00:56:37,239 --> 00:56:42,200 Speaker 6: have been monitoring the main movers and shakers of a 1124 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,600 Speaker 6: lot of this youth violence. They have been monitoring them 1125 00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:47,440 Speaker 6: way over a long time period of time. But of 1126 00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:51,560 Speaker 6: course you can't monitor everyone all the time, particularly with 1127 00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:54,359 Speaker 6: the social media being the way it is. Spontaneous sort 1128 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:57,000 Speaker 6: of things like happened at Northland where they a range 1129 00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:59,759 Speaker 6: of fight, it's really difficult for anyone to beil and 1130 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:00,360 Speaker 6: monitor to that. 1131 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,200 Speaker 2: And look, I reckon police can do what police can do, 1132 00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:07,040 Speaker 2: but you've heard plenty of frustration from them over the journey. 1133 00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:09,760 Speaker 2: We get them, we take them in, they're bounced back out. 1134 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:11,880 Speaker 2: There were a number of these kids involved in Northland 1135 00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 2: the other weekend who were on bail for offenses, for 1136 00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:19,280 Speaker 2: serious offenses, for serious weapons offenses, and yet there you 1137 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,400 Speaker 2: are on bail and out and able to so that 1138 00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:24,800 Speaker 2: that's an ongoing frustration where the courts don't do what 1139 00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:26,560 Speaker 2: any of the rest of us want them to do, 1140 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:28,040 Speaker 2: well most of the rest of us want them to do. 1141 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:32,040 Speaker 5: Peter McKenna number six, he reckons that they have it 1142 00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:34,480 Speaker 5: at the it happened at the shopping center, he believes, 1143 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:37,360 Speaker 5: and I agree with him. I think because it's on 1144 00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:39,680 Speaker 5: social media, they know they're going to make the news. 1145 00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:47,680 Speaker 5: They believe that it's they're going to be social media. 1146 00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 5: He says, they you't won't find them meeting up at 1147 00:57:50,760 --> 00:57:52,080 Speaker 5: an oval in rural. 1148 00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:53,600 Speaker 2: Victoria where no one's got a camera. 1149 00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 5: No one's got a camera. I agree with that. 1150 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:58,800 Speaker 6: I agree with in terms of this because it is 1151 00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 6: a social media. They love to be seen to be tough. 1152 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:05,160 Speaker 6: And even when they're breaking road laws and speeding and 1153 00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:07,600 Speaker 6: stuff like that, people are still putting themselves on social 1154 00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:11,160 Speaker 6: media saying look look at me.

This morning, when I 1177 00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:08,960 Speaker 5: rode my motorbike down Colin Street in five degree temperatures, 1178 00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:11,400 Speaker 5: there was no one on the roads except myself and 1179 00:59:11,480 --> 00:59:14,560 Speaker 5: another guy that came. I was sitting in exactly forty 1180 00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:18,040 Speaker 5: kilometers per hour going down Colin Street in the bike lane. 1181 00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:21,920 Speaker 5: A flash came past me. It was a food deliverer 1182 00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:24,960 Speaker 5: and on one of those electric bikes with a big battery. 1183 00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:28,440 Speaker 5: He would have been going fifty. As I saw in 1184 00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:30,280 Speaker 5: the distance the lights at the corner of Exhibition and 1185 00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:33,560 Speaker 5: Colins Go Amber, I prepared to slow down and. 1186 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:36,120 Speaker 2: Stop because you're a responsible road user, which I did. 1187 00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:39,439 Speaker 5: They turned the color red, so I came to a halt, 1188 00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:41,200 Speaker 5: heading in the westerly direction. 1189 00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:42,560 Speaker 2: Westerly direction, Great. 1190 00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:46,160 Speaker 6: You're encouraging. Let's get to the point. Let's get to 1191 00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:47,120 Speaker 6: the point. 1192 00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 5: The aforementioned food deliverer proceeded in that western elelection to 1193 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 5: bypass the red light on full red, and can continue 1194 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,520 Speaker 5: on down Colin Street at a speed of around fifty 1195 00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:02,440 Speaker 5: to sixty kilometers in the bike lane. 1196 01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:04,600 Speaker 2: These misslides not apply to the bike line. 1197 01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:08,640 Speaker 5: No, apparently not. These motorbikes that they are on, they 1198 01:00:08,680 --> 01:00:13,000 Speaker 5: are electric motorbikes. There is a motor they are not 1199 01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:16,080 Speaker 5: obeying the law. They would be easily be able to 1200 01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:18,479 Speaker 5: register it because they've got big boxes hanging off the back. 1201 01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:20,680 Speaker 5: As the Yuba driver said to me that I was 1202 01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:23,120 Speaker 5: discussing it with, he has to go jump through hoops 1203 01:00:23,160 --> 01:00:25,560 Speaker 5: to make sure his car is registered, to make sure 1204 01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:29,040 Speaker 5: it's roadworthy. We saw a food deliverer, the Uber driver 1205 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:32,520 Speaker 5: and I without a helmet on. Now, the food delivery 1206 01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:37,040 Speaker 5: companies aren't held accountable at all for what's going on. 1207 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:41,360 Speaker 5: So just get them to register the food delivery bikes, 1208 01:00:41,480 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 5: get them to obey the law, get them to have 1209 01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:48,520 Speaker 5: even maybe a proper driver's license, because until that happens, 1210 01:00:48,640 --> 01:00:52,840 Speaker 5: there's going to be accidents and catastrophe in this town. 1211 01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:55,000 Speaker 6: I must see, I must say I agree with you. 1212 01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:58,440 Speaker 6: IMS got skintled on yesterday and the way home where 1213 01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:03,480 Speaker 6: a similar situation. The writer driving up the bike lane 1214 01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:06,640 Speaker 6: decided to cut the corner, so jumped onto the footpath. 1215 01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:09,520 Speaker 6: Dring tring, You get out of the already said to me, 1216 01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:11,960 Speaker 6: and kept on going. I agree with you. I reckon 1217 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:15,240 Speaker 6: we should contemplate as some form of registration for those 1218 01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:21,280 Speaker 6: particular types of food delivery vehicles regio plate, if that 1219 01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:22,240 Speaker 6: is possible. 1220 01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:25,240 Speaker 5: Breaking the law. 1221 01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:28,480 Speaker 2: Is it just in city streets or is it in 1222 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:30,080 Speaker 2: suburban areas as well? 1223 01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:32,200 Speaker 6: Is it just the suburban? 1224 01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:35,280 Speaker 5: Are you listening? Are you listening? Campbell? 1225 01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:37,320 Speaker 2: A lot of them in the CBD. Is it as 1226 01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 2: big a deal? Is it as big an issue today? 1227 01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:40,960 Speaker 2: But are they around? 1228 01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 6: I mean, must imagine that have to be in. I 1229 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:47,080 Speaker 6: mean because there are a lot of suburban strip areas 1230 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:48,160 Speaker 6: where there are a lot. 1231 01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:50,160 Speaker 5: Of restaurants street and the best. 1232 01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:51,560 Speaker 6: Way to get calls on this is to tell people 1233 01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:52,520 Speaker 6: you don't want calls on this. 1234 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:55,800 Speaker 5: If you don't want to discuss, call one double three 1235 01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:56,520 Speaker 5: six three. 1236 01:01:56,600 --> 01:01:58,360 Speaker 2: If you do want to discuss, if you do, and. 1237 01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:01,920 Speaker 6: Nick yeah, I'm my is for the Liberal party, the 1238 01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:05,480 Speaker 6: Victorian needs where do we want to start? But the 1239 01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:09,960 Speaker 6: Victoria strong a strong opposition at the moment, given the 1240 01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:13,680 Speaker 6: financial problems and also the draft problems. The Liberal party 1241 01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:18,160 Speaker 6: whacking itself pursuito versus deeming. That's all coming to a 1242 01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:21,280 Speaker 6: head next I think about three weeks. He's now got 1243 01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:24,120 Speaker 6: to pay otherwise he's out. They're going to face a 1244 01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:28,760 Speaker 6: very difficult by election. And also these attacks on Sam growth. Now, 1245 01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:34,080 Speaker 6: everything that Sam has done, he has actually declared. You know, 1246 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:34,960 Speaker 6: you can. 1247 01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:37,680 Speaker 5: Argue it's not a good thing, wrong, well anything. 1248 01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:41,560 Speaker 6: The only thing is the you know, they're using Georgie 1249 01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:45,920 Speaker 6: Crozy's car, which does need to be explained. But you know, 1250 01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:48,160 Speaker 6: you notice the government is not going that hard on 1251 01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:51,560 Speaker 6: Sam because they know that he is the Shadow Minister 1252 01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:54,760 Speaker 6: for Sport and Tourism, so of course he's got to 1253 01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:58,440 Speaker 6: go to these events, these these as you know, Heidi, 1254 01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:01,520 Speaker 6: these leaks, most of them he would assume are coming 1255 01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:02,520 Speaker 6: from with his own part. 1256 01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:04,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, Labor doesn't need to go hard on him. 1257 01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:06,400 Speaker 6: His own hard. 1258 01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 5: They're hiding themselves. 1259 01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:11,080 Speaker 6: And part of that is because Sam was so upfront 1260 01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 6: so early about his ambitions to be premiere, which in 1261 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:17,000 Speaker 6: retrospect I think was a foolish thing to do within 1262 01:03:17,040 --> 01:03:21,560 Speaker 6: his own party. But still get it. I mean, Brad 1263 01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:23,960 Speaker 6: Betten is their best chance as a leader at the moment, 1264 01:03:24,240 --> 01:03:25,440 Speaker 6: he's getting no oxygen. 1265 01:03:25,920 --> 01:03:30,560 Speaker 2: This week has been an absolute write off for the 1266 01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:33,160 Speaker 2: Liberal Party, for the state opposition. I have watched it 1267 01:03:33,240 --> 01:03:37,080 Speaker 2: unfolding at close quarters and just gone. It is four 1268 01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:41,480 Speaker 2: more years for labor in twenty twenty six November twenty 1269 01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:44,680 Speaker 2: twenty six, on the current yes, on the current trajectory, 1270 01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:48,439 Speaker 2: on the current performance of the coalition, it is four 1271 01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:52,640 Speaker 2: more years of labor because what alternative are they giving you? 1272 01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:56,960 Speaker 2: But not much is the answer. Not freaking much. There 1273 01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:59,240 Speaker 2: was even a budget reply speech from the Shadow Treasurer 1274 01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 2: this week which was full of number plate slogans, a 1275 01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:05,520 Speaker 2: go for growth slogan that was adopted from the Howard 1276 01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:08,840 Speaker 2: and Costello disastrous campaign of two thousand and seven that 1277 01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:13,919 Speaker 2: they lost, and he was trying to have cut through 1278 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:17,000 Speaker 2: with some with some tax changes. It's died a quiet 1279 01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:22,080 Speaker 2: like quiet death because so much is being leaked about 1280 01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:25,440 Speaker 2: the Sam Groth matter and being pushed along to have 1281 01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 2: even had a former senior Liberal and she's still a 1282 01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:31,160 Speaker 2: senior Liberal, but she's in the leadership team. Georgie Crozier 1283 01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 2: on Friday saying about Sam growth, Victorians deserve better. That's 1284 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:37,960 Speaker 2: a member of your own team. All it has been 1285 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:40,520 Speaker 2: on display this week when it should be about the 1286 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:42,920 Speaker 2: government's backflip on machetes, it should be about the government's 1287 01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:46,040 Speaker 2: backflip on this on this levee, it should be about 1288 01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:48,880 Speaker 2: so many other things. It's about the more redeeming pursuito 1289 01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:53,960 Speaker 2: Moira Deeming, John Persudo legal fight, his possible future, and 1290 01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:57,640 Speaker 2: division inside that coalition party disaster disaster. 1291 01:04:57,720 --> 01:05:01,560 Speaker 6: But the thing is the old, the gladage governments get 1292 01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:04,280 Speaker 6: voted out and there are certainly within the opinion pulse 1293 01:05:04,320 --> 01:05:07,000 Speaker 6: moods that people want this government voted out. So all 1294 01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:11,120 Speaker 6: the opposition has to do is unite, shut up and 1295 01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:13,880 Speaker 6: talk about the major issues, which are the economy.

Yeah, 1373 01:08:57,400 --> 01:08:59,160 Speaker 14: to go on public transport, yeah. 1374 01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:03,040 Speaker 2: Oh absolutely, But in terms of how you go and 1375 01:09:03,040 --> 01:09:06,280 Speaker 2: you're able to purchase those knives, or how you're able 1376 01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:10,200 Speaker 2: to start carrying a card with you. 1377 01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:08,920 Speaker 25: What. 1378 01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:11,760 Speaker 6: Details that have to be worked out? 1379 01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:12,679 Speaker 5: Thanks Shane. 1380 01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:18,120 Speaker 24: To Bill, good morning, Hi, guys, love of the program. Listen, 1381 01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:20,679 Speaker 24: I'm sick and tirle of these stugs being where they're 1382 01:09:20,680 --> 01:09:23,600 Speaker 24: on bail. The new law they're going to bring in 1383 01:09:23,680 --> 01:09:26,320 Speaker 24: doesn't do much. But if they go out and bail 1384 01:09:26,680 --> 01:09:30,240 Speaker 24: might not fit a bloody ankle base tool, put them 1385 01:09:30,240 --> 01:09:33,680 Speaker 24: on a curfe curfe and if you know they can 1386 01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:36,920 Speaker 24: track them, at least maybe get onto the thing before 1387 01:09:36,920 --> 01:09:39,320 Speaker 24: it even starts. 1388 01:09:40,200 --> 01:09:44,200 Speaker 2: They are starting a trial of some ankle monitoring for 1389 01:09:44,240 --> 01:09:46,760 Speaker 2: about fifty youth defenders. I think the first couple are 1390 01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:50,559 Speaker 2: on them now, particularly serious recidibus defenders. I don't think 1391 01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:52,080 Speaker 2: you can do it with everybody that you put out 1392 01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:54,639 Speaker 2: on bail. We haven't got that many bracelets. We haven't 1393 01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:57,679 Speaker 2: got that much capacity to do the monitoring of them. 1394 01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:00,680 Speaker 2: And I very much get the sense that the bracelets 1395 01:10:00,680 --> 01:10:04,160 Speaker 2: are about after the fact, proving the case, rather than 1396 01:10:04,360 --> 01:10:06,479 Speaker 2: being able to be preventative to go out and catch 1397 01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:09,680 Speaker 2: them as their breaching curfew or as they're going to 1398 01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:14,640 Speaker 2: perform something illegal. It's much more about building the case afterwards, 1399 01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 2: other than too soft stopping rather than stopping them. I 1400 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:21,000 Speaker 2: just don't think we've got the equipment or the manpower 1401 01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:26,280 Speaker 2: to be absolutely monitoring every single one of people or 1402 01:10:26,320 --> 01:10:30,040 Speaker 2: youth or adults let out on bail. We haven't got 1403 01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:32,200 Speaker 2: the resourcing to be able to monitor them. And the 1404 01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:34,639 Speaker 2: moment they step outside during curfew, quick call the dog, 1405 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:35,320 Speaker 2: quick call. 1406 01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:38,360 Speaker 5: Too soft. 1407 01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:43,120 Speaker 6: But having the youth leader, that the leaders of these 1408 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:47,160 Speaker 6: youth gangs, having them monitored is at least a start. 1409 01:10:47,280 --> 01:10:49,840 Speaker 6: I agree with you. You can't do everyone. You'd never 1410 01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:53,000 Speaker 6: stop crime even if you have a policeman on every corner. 1411 01:10:53,280 --> 01:10:56,559 Speaker 6: And that's an old expression, but you can still at 1412 01:10:56,640 --> 01:10:59,280 Speaker 6: least try with that tracking over a. 1413 01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:00,719 Speaker 2: Piece to provide some give it to Terrance. 1414 01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:02,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, Frank, good morning. 1415 01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:04,519 Speaker 12: Yes, good morning. 1416 01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:08,799 Speaker 28: I just want to speak about the bio laws. Putting 1417 01:11:08,840 --> 01:11:12,439 Speaker 28: those ankle bracelets and monitors on. That's all really well, 1418 01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:17,600 Speaker 28: But until I always thought that bail, I'm sure he 1419 01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:21,240 Speaker 28: had to be put forward like a summer money. Make 1420 01:11:21,360 --> 01:11:24,880 Speaker 28: somebody accountable. And I'm not talking too and sixpence, No, 1421 01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:26,719 Speaker 28: I'm talking five thousand dollars. 1422 01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:27,479 Speaker 5: Yeah, good cost. 1423 01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:30,800 Speaker 28: The parents accountable, Yeah, parents accountable. 1424 01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:35,360 Speaker 6: Unfortunately, unfortunately, Frank, for the vast majority of people, they 1425 01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 6: wouldn't be able to afford that. 1426 01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:37,639 Speaker 5: Well, then you put him in jail. 1427 01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:40,720 Speaker 6: Well, so you put everyone in jail, and so what 1428 01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:43,519 Speaker 6: for for minor offenses?

Why don't you put the 1436 01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:08,000 Speaker 6: kids in jail for what the parents do as well? 1437 01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:09,320 Speaker 5: Not a bad idea. 1438 01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:12,600 Speaker 6: Your kids would love that? How your kids would love that? 1439 01:12:14,080 --> 01:12:18,559 Speaker 24: Hello Howard, good morning, folks, Free the Liberal Party.

Pretty quick ones, Darren. These electric 1465 01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:52,000 Speaker 19: look like dirt bike things, those little things. There is 1466 01:13:52,040 --> 01:13:55,360 Speaker 19: a brand on the market. You can buy seventy five 1467 01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:56,080 Speaker 19: miles an hour. 1468 01:13:57,120 --> 01:13:59,919 Speaker 6: Can you can you actually buy them legally here in Australia. 1469 01:14:00,120 --> 01:14:03,800 Speaker 19: Not I don't know whether it's illegal or not, but 1470 01:14:03,840 --> 01:14:05,639 Speaker 19: you can certainly buy them off the internet. 1471 01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:08,080 Speaker 5: This is what I'm saying anyway. 1472 01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:12,080 Speaker 19: Second one, I have to move quickly. I heard on 1473 01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:15,800 Speaker 19: the news at eleven that they're talking about banning cigarettes 1474 01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:20,360 Speaker 19: from sale in supermarkets. My local strip shopping. There is 1475 01:14:20,400 --> 01:14:24,519 Speaker 19: a calls, then there is another shop, and then there 1476 01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:31,240 Speaker 19: is an illegal cigarette vape type shop. So what's the 1477 01:14:31,320 --> 01:14:35,479 Speaker 19: point of banning cigarettes in supermarkets? I just laughed my 1478 01:14:35,520 --> 01:14:35,920 Speaker 19: head off. 1479 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:39,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, I agree with you on that least in supermarkets 1480 01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:42,960 Speaker 6: there because they're big corporate entities, they are locked away 1481 01:14:43,200 --> 01:14:45,280 Speaker 6: and they are a lot more easy to control in 1482 01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:47,960 Speaker 6: terms of age and stuff like that. So you've got 1483 01:14:47,960 --> 01:14:51,479 Speaker 6: to control it, I think in supermarket. In supermarkets it's 1484 01:14:51,520 --> 01:14:54,000 Speaker 6: a lot easier to control it and keep it locked away. 1485 01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:57,519 Speaker 5: Up next three W football preview. I know that Tony 1486 01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:00,719 Speaker 5: Shaw will be on because he just hockey. 1487 01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:03,720 Speaker 2: Have you got your just not the first time you 1488 01:15:03,760 --> 01:15:04,759 Speaker 2: have been asked that today? 1489 01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:07,400 Speaker 6: Did you notice he ignored me? 1490 01:15:08,640 --> 01:15:10,280 Speaker 5: Well it's only the first. 1491 01:15:11,200 --> 01:15:13,679 Speaker 2: There's plenty more time for the Collie wobbles to settle in. 1492 01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:14,639 Speaker 5: Oh well. 1493 01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:18,719 Speaker 2: Fall apart.
