1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda jam Nation. 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 2: Well. 3 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,000 Speaker 3: After such an now abiding win on Saturday night, the 4 00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 3: Matildas have secured a spot in a semi final. Another 5 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:12,559 Speaker 3: public holiday will be on the cards for New South Wales, 6 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:15,320 Speaker 3: ither of states around the country. I have to decide 7 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:18,439 Speaker 3: those things for themselves. Someone who was there, with the 8 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 3: sellout crowd, the atmosphere, it must have been extraordinary, was 9 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,920 Speaker 3: our Prime Minister, Anthony Alberanezi. He joins us now. Good morning, 10 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:25,760 Speaker 3: Prime Minister. 11 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 2: Good morning. It was indeed amazing. I can't recall any 12 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:36,839 Speaker 2: sporting event was quite the same tension as twenty twenty 13 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 2: spot kicks that took place, and there were three. Of 14 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 2: course we had to win it and the third time lucky. 15 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 2: It was an extraordinary game. 16 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: Are you a big soccer guy? 17 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 2: Look, I'm mainly I've got to say historically rugby league 18 00:00:54,800 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 2: and AFL in that order. But it was amazing. I 19 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:09,119 Speaker 2: was there when we kicked again a spot kick to 20 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 2: beat Uruguay to go to the World Cup finals after 21 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 2: we'd missed out from nineteen seventy four right through for 22 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 2: a couple of decades. But this was something really, really 23 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 2: special and I think the whole of Australia being captivated 24 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 2: by this magnificent team of women on and off the field. 25 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 2: The gesture of Sam Kerr in giving her jumper to 26 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: that young girl, it was just symptomatic of the character 27 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 2: of Sam and the entire team. It is one of 28 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 2: the reasons why I was really proud that Sam Kerr 29 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,279 Speaker 2: was our flag bearer at the King's Coronation on behalf 30 00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 2: of Australia earlier this year. 31 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,559 Speaker 3: Tell us about the deal you made with the French 32 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 3: president Emmanuel Macron. 33 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 2: Well, we did a deal by pytext and correspondence that 34 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 2: whoever won, we would back the other team in the 35 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 2: semi final. Now it happens that it's versus the English, 36 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: the old enemy. We're beating them and Rpe retained the 37 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 2: ashes and so this will be a good thing. He 38 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 2: has honored his word. He's a man of his word, 39 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 2: Emmanuel Macron, and he has tweeted out his support for 40 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 2: Australia in the semi final on Wednesday night, so he 41 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 2: joins every single Australian will be cheering. I think there 42 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 2: won't be much happening at eight o'clock on Wednesday night 43 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 2: except for the Tillies. 44 00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's going to be huge. 45 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 3: Look, I know we feel it's boring to talk about 46 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 3: the voice, but it's so important and there are some 47 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 3: people who still aren't sure what it's about. So can 48 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 3: I ask you again. I've heard a couple of stories 49 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 3: of people saying it's just going to lead to court cases, 50 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 3: it's going to lead to money claims. Can you can 51 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 3: say convincingly that that is not the case. 52 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,359 Speaker 2: It is absolutely not the case. It is a simple thing. 53 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 2: It will lead to one us recognizing Indigenous Australians in 54 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 2: our nation's constitution, as all former colonies recognize their first 55 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 2: peoples except for Australia. We stand out right around the 56 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 2: world has been the only country that still if you 57 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 2: look at our founding document doesn't acknowledge that. And secondly, 58 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 2: it's just a matter of an advisory group that will 59 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 2: be selected by Indigenous Australians to give advice on matters 60 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 2: that affect Indigenous Australian step the Government of the day 61 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 2: can accept or reject that advice. It's not binding, it 62 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 2: doesn't have a right of veto. But what we know 63 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 2: is listening to people about matters that affect them is 64 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 2: the key to getting better results, and that is all 65 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 2: that this is about. 66 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 4: I was reading, you know, a few of the Peta 67 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 4: Credlines of the World and the Andrew Bolts, and they're 68 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 4: saying that there's a con going on with the voice. 69 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: There's Petti. 70 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 4: Credlin says it's twenty five page document, it's not just 71 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 4: a one pager and she was saying that there's devil 72 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 4: in the detail in this. 73 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: But then I read it and I just can't see it. 74 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:38,359 Speaker 1: I just don't know. 75 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 4: To me, it just makes the Yes thing for me 76 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 4: from the get go has always made sense. I don't 77 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 4: know why people are so against the Yes thing. It's 78 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 4: not like I'm going to suddenly have to hand my 79 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 4: house back to Aboriginal Australia, is it. 80 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: That's right? And look, I think it shows the weakness 81 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 2: of the No case, the fact that things are just 82 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 2: being made up. People can have a look at the 83 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 2: question themselves and what the constitutional change will be and 84 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 2: it's really clear. 85 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 3: It's really hard though, what you're up against, because there's 86 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 3: a whole lot of Indigenous people voting no, and some 87 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 3: of that has also been shown to be AI generated. 88 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 3: Even the No campaign has said no, that's not to 89 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 3: do with us, it's AI generated. That's what we're up against. 90 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 2: That's right. It's pretty scary, frankly. Some of the no 91 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: campaign and stuff that's going into people's Facebook posts which 92 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 2: is designed to spread misinformation. Some of it AI generated. 93 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 2: Some of it generated of course by people like the 94 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 2: commentators that you have said. But this will just simply 95 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 2: not have an impact on most of your listeners. That 96 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 2: won't have any impact on their lives at all, But 97 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 2: that just might make things better for the most disadvantaged 98 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: group of Australians. And Australians are generous people. They want 99 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 2: a greater opportunity for Indigenous Australians. This is an opportunity 100 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 2: to do that. It's an opportunity to show respect for 101 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,359 Speaker 2: Aboriginal Australians, but also it's an opportunity for us to 102 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 2: feel better about ourselves. And I just say to people, 103 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 2: before the apology to the Stolen Generations, there was a 104 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 2: whole lot of scare campaigns. There was statements that we 105 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 2: couldn't do this because it would result in all these 106 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 2: reparations and why should we feel guilty. We didn't steal 107 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 2: Aboriginal kids. But guess what we did it and it 108 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 2: made the country better and this will make the country 109 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 2: the greatest country and Earth just a little bit better 110 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 2: when we actually acknowledge the fullness and richness of our 111 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 2: history and when we learn the lessons, which are that 112 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 2: when we listen to people who are directly affected, you 113 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 2: get better results. When you engage with people in Western 114 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 2: Sydney about Western Sydney your listeners, guess what, you get 115 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 2: better results than if decisions are made simply from Canberra 116 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 2: without any proper consultation. And that lesson is there for 117 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 2: all to see. And we know that the programs that 118 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 2: have really worked, Indigenous ranges programs, justice reinvestment programs that 119 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 2: have provided opportunities for Aboriginal Australians, they have something in common, 120 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 2: which is that they have that sense of ownership and 121 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 2: belonging and consultation, but people directly affected. 122 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 4: And also just the very word yes, you know when 123 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 4: we have the same sex vote yes, you know, and 124 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 4: I think for me to go against yes, it seems 125 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 4: just totally wrong. And I'm happy, Like I've read all 126 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 4: this stuff and there's nothing that I can see where 127 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 4: I'm going to have to pay thousands of dollars to 128 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 4: go and visit a national park or I'm going to 129 00:07:58,800 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 4: lose my house. 130 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: I can't see anything that actually definitively says that that's 131 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: going to happen. And I don't know why people are saying. 132 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: I don't know why people being so obtuse about this. 133 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: I just and I think, is it social media? 134 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 4: Is it the silos and the algorithms and things like that. 135 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: I just don't I can't see that. 136 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 2: Well, that's right, James. You remember before the marriage equality 137 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 2: survey that was held, the vote that was held around 138 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 2: Australia was people were told somehow it would undermine straight 139 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 2: people's marriage. 140 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: And it's crazy, that's crazy. 141 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 2: It had no negative impact on anyone. The world has 142 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 2: moved on. It's just more inclusive as a result of 143 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 2: that and the negative no campaign, which is led by 144 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 2: some of the some of the same people, mind you 145 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 2: who involved in in no for that vote also involved 146 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 2: in the no campaign. Now and we history, you know, 147 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:04,719 Speaker 2: the the the arc of history bends towards justice, and 148 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 2: this is about a more inclusive society and just stepping 149 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 2: forward and acknowledging if we do things the same way, 150 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 2: then we should expect the same outcomes. So nothing to 151 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,559 Speaker 2: lose here, absolutely. 152 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 4: Well, Prime Minister's always a treat to talk to you. 153 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 4: Go Matilda's on Wednesday night and thank you for joining us. 154 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 2: Go to Tillies there it is
