1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,440 Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda jam Nation. 2 00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 2: The Jonesy demand of arms for the pub test. 3 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:08,840 Speaker 3: Voters have complained about a flurry of messages from political 4 00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 3: parties and groups in the lead up to the federal 5 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:12,520 Speaker 3: election this weekend. 6 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 2: I haven't got one. 7 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 3: Be careful what you wish for, though, have you got one? 8 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:16,079 Speaker 2: No? 9 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 4: But Clive Palmer's party seems to be flooding people's texts. 10 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,079 Speaker 4: He sent out something like seventeen million texts. He's confirmed that. 11 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 4: He said they've been about eight thousand complaints. People are 12 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 4: annoyed because they can't unsubscribe, and they can't block it, 13 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 4: and they can't respond. But apparently political parties are exempt 14 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,519 Speaker 4: from the Spam Act and they do not call register, 15 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 4: so these texts are legal. Clive Palmer himself has said 16 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 4: this is the same as handing out how to vote well. 17 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 2: Because he had the markup with his how to vote cards, 18 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 2: had all his preferences going to the teals. 19 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 4: Was that what does that mean? 20 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 2: Well, the Teals aren't big on cold. 21 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 4: Now, that's what I mean. So what's that about it? 22 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 2: He said he got hacked. I don't understand that cynics 23 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 2: would say that's how he's going to get a seat. 24 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 2: Is he gives everything to the teals? 25 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 4: That's not a miss date. 26 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 5: Wow? 27 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 4: Well, how do you feel though, was about these unsolicited 28 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 4: texts during an election? They passed the pub test? 29 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: Oh? 30 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,199 Speaker 6: Absolutely not. It makes my blood boil. I've blocked the number. 31 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 6: It still bloody, will won't stop. It's so annoying. 32 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,479 Speaker 1: Clive Palmer's pants are on fire as usual because he's 33 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,479 Speaker 1: telling nice. I can say no if I don't want 34 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: to take a hat to vote cart I can't say 35 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: no to these stupid texts. And when I prepolled yesterday 36 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,759 Speaker 1: I even poked my tongue out at the Parma peoples 37 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: in protest. 38 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 5: I don't think it's right that political parties are untouchable 39 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,559 Speaker 5: and can get away with it. So what I think 40 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 5: is ironic is the bloke sending out the text messages. 41 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 5: His surname is Fong. Given that Clive Palmer wants to 42 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 5: stop immigration, I hate it. 43 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 1: It makes me anxious because I can't tell him the 44 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: stop like. 45 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 5: I don't opt out. 46 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: Honestly, I just block and move on with my life. 47 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 2: Block and move on with your life. 48 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 4: There's a problem. 49 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 6: You can't block
