Speaker 1 (00:01):
The Coalition has dropped the music video to a company
its new wrap disc track, slamming labor and the Prime
Minister over the cost of lyrics.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Leave, bring them braces down. This is what we need
because ourbull's got to leave. Ourbull's got to leave me.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Oh chee. It's an election campaign. When asked about the
campaign tactic, the Prime Minister said it was beyond his
comprehension for their take. Let's bring in Dally. Telegraph journalist
James Willis and the founding director of Western Sydney Women,
Amanda Rose. Good morning, James. Your reaction this morning.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Oh, it's so lame. It is one of the lamest
things I've seen in a long period of time. Look,
thankfully we've got it today because the election campaign has
been a bit dry over the last few days, so
it's given us something to talk about. But it's one
of those examples of when mum and dad or grandma
or grandpa discover something cool and try and tell their
kids about it, and the kids just go what.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Look, you know what's.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
It's a really interesting strategy because the Liberal Party has
a real.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Problem with young voters.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Peter Dutton has a real problem with young voters, and
they've obviously someone in HQ has said, let's put this
wrap track out, make it sound like one of the
famous rappers and see how it goes. But I'm not
into it, and I think it's really really cheapy.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
So Amanda, as we've heard, for the first time, young
voters will outnumber older voters. Will this help?
Speaker 4 (01:25):
Look beat's not bad, right, don't want a good beat.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Really, but but I would.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Probably not put it on my playlist in my car
because someone might run into me deliberately. So the thing is,
I find that the young voters have been neglected actually
quite some time, you know. I noticed this about a
decade ago, and I was thinking, no one's really engaging
with them except the Greens. The Greens do it so well.
And the problem is is that if you tell them
(01:52):
what they want to hear, they'll vote for you. They're
not going to ask can I have the policy details
on that and how you're going to do it. They
just go, yes, that's what I want. I want houses, Yes,
I want to tax billionaires. Yes. So they vote based
on emotions. So this is not how you get to
the youth right. You actually need to bring youth in
(02:12):
and actually get them to give advice and get them
to lead the campaign for young people.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
That's so true.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
One of the things that some of the minor parties
do so well is engaged directly with social media and
make sure that clear cut, very simple messages are cut through.
And that's what the Liberal Party should be doing, not
getting into the studio with DUTs with his backwards hat
and his baggy jeans and pumping out.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Tracks because we don't want that. We want him as
a leader, but we want the team to engage with you.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yeah, okay, Moving on, Anthony Alberanezi has indicated he would
have a tilt at a third term as Prime Minister.
Speaking on a podcast with The Nightly Miss, Alberanzi was
asked if he would have a run in twenty twenty
eight and said that if he was successful on May three,
then yeah, James. He criticize Peter Dutton when he was
(03:02):
asked did he want to live in Sydney or Canberra,
and Albo said, oh, he's measuring up the curtains. He's
getting ahead of himself. Is this getting ahead of himself?
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Well, of course it is. But that's the thing with Albo.
I mean he could argue he's part of the furniture
in Canberra. He's been there for so long. He's one
of the old school politicians from the older systems, and
I really think he.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Just cruises through day to day.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
He'd be happy to be Prime Minister for as long
as we'll have him. And the real thing, the real
issue for him is if the polls go in the
way that we expect them to and there's a minority
government and his preferential treatment as preferred prime minister continues
in the way that it does. If those polls continue,
then it won't be about Albo deciding. There'll be someone
(03:43):
tapping him on the shoulder, whether it be Jim Chalmers
or someone else.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
So I wouldn't be surprised. I think he'd just be
happy to keep cruising. He loves the parliamentary life as well.
Right he's loving the com.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Cars, he loves the Toto jet, and so he could
keep going for as long as possible.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
I also don't know what he do if he stopped
one day. I think he'd struggle.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I have to get an actual job.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Maybe he should go to the store. They're interesting talking
about minority government. There's poll out this morning saying because
of the Trump situation and what's happened in the last
couple of weeks and Dutton identifying with Trump that's pushing
people to get into labor and there could be a
majority labor government.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Well, this is what's interesting. I don't think Dutton's much
like Trump at all. Trump is you know, America is
very different to Australia. And I say this with a
lot of things. When Trump was implementing stuff that we're
not going to do that, we're very different here in Australia.
So Labour's very smart that any opportunity they can get,
they will try and make sure that Dutton and Trump
look similar. So people can hate on Dutton and again
(04:47):
this is election campaign's emotions when really what we want
is people to go, well, hang on a minute, what
did he say? What are we doing in this country?
What is Dutton and Albanezie, what are they actually genuinely doing?
Not looking at America and getting too worry because we
are our own country and we need to make sure
that we are focused on ourselves and not obsessing over
America because they really don't have that much control over
(05:10):
the decisions we make.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Okay, let's look at something that's truly Australian. There are
reports that Terry Owen wasn't the happiest of mums when
her son Robert's Bond's photoshoot went viral. Asaus has told
New Idea that Terry was a little surprised and even
voiced her concerns about the snaps. Firstly, James, do you
trust the source that allegedly told me?
Speaker 3 (05:32):
Look, I feel a little bit sorry for Terry if
she wasn't aware of this and saw these photos and
suddenly Bobby wasn't in the car key and swap them in.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
For the Bonds.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
What I would say in Robert Irwin's defense is that
if you did look like this under the car key,
well you'd be finding your opportunity to show it off.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
And I reckon, he looks amazing.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
So and it's being hailed as a really great commercial,
especially and especially overseas.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
What somebody your thoughts?
Speaker 4 (05:59):
A man, all I can think about it he was
in high school four years ago and now this, and
so if you're over the age of twenty one, you
shouldn't be looking at it.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Well, some people women's groups are saying it's sexist because
if we were doing this absolutely, if it was a
woman and we were ogling at her is wrong.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
One hundred percent. I agree.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
So the ladies when you're on Facebook, calm your farm
and stop commenting on.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
This because he's not there in chains. He's there at
his own free will and he loves the way that he's.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Looks making money. But still he's twelve.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
It's not twelve.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Let Bob show it off. He's over age.
The Coalition has dropped the music video to a company
its new wrap disc track, slamming labor and the Prime
Minister over the cost of lyrics.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Leave, bring them braces down. This is what we need
