1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:02,000
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's.

2
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 2: Getting under of the Jonesy demand of arms for the

3
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:07,480
Speaker 2: pub test this morning. Western Australia becoming its own country.

4
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:08,720
Speaker 2: Does it pass the pub test?

5
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 3: Well, this is a move that's taking place in Western Australia.

6
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:16,079
Speaker 3: Wax It they're calling it. They have been locked off

7
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 3: from the rest of the country because of COVID restrictions,

8
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 3: a very harsh border and it still exists for Queensland

9
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 3: and New South Wales. So a new political party has

10
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 3: been launched.

11
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 2: They tried back in nineteen thirty three to secede.

12
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, they've tried a couple of times. Wax It party's

13
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 3: head Russell Sewell said that COVID probably heightened the senses

14
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 3: to Western Australians that they realize is more to Western

15
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,160
Speaker 3: Australia than being the whipping boy of these coast Why.

16
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:48,360
Speaker 2: Have we made them? I think there's a persecution, that's

17
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 2: the case.

18
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 3: Well, the thing is we live they live a long

19
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 3: way away. Yes, there are time differences between them and

20
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 3: the rest of the country, and there are a number

21
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 3: of differences, but we are united in some much infrastructure

22
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 3: as much as anything else. The Army, the Navy, the

23
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 3: Air Force, the currency, the rail lines. How are they

24
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 3: going to do all that on their own?

25
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 2: What do you think Western Australia becoming his own country?

26
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 2: Does it pass the pub test?

27
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 4: You remember years ago there used to be a plate

28
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 4: called King Lennart that had his own providence there in

29
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 4: hut Hupp and he's now passed away, so they don't

30
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 4: have that name are so they probably want to rule

31
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 4: their own country again.

32
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: I personally think of a WA convert its own country.

33
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: You know, I wanted to travel there a couple of

34
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 1: weeks ago and unfortunately I was unable to. So I've

35
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 1: got a bad taste with them at the moment. So

36
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: they can feed their own fine.

37
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 5: Day, think it does. What are they trying to do

38
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 5: with up Australia. There's so much infrastructure and all the

39
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 5: rest of it that's been done for him since federation.

40
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 5: The whole idea of them joining federation is the railway line,

41
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 5: et cetera, et cetera.

42
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 6: I'd love them to do it. Then they take most

43
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 6: of the GST money, but financially impossible. Their population is

44
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 6: two point five million, the same as Western Sydney. The

45
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 6: Eastern Board nineteen a half million. So the boy actually

46
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 6: a calculate.

47
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 2: Thank you, Thank you for all your guys.

48
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,519
