Hey, but it's after six. It's good morning to you and welcome to Friday. Hopefully the rain is pelting down where you are. It was certainly lashing the windscreen of my way in this morning. So it beds in over the course of this long weekend and gets to the places that need it most. The places that need it most featured somewhat in the budget that was handed down yesterday. We're going to have our big news wrap after seven o'clock this morning, where we will take you through the big key stakeholders and get them to score the budget. The tradition on five double a breakfast. We always enjoy this good way of getting a snap. So we're gonna hear from the master builders. We're gonna hear from the grain producers. We're gonna hear from Seiko's, the police, so I think probably pretty happy. The Essay, Business Chamber and the AMA. We'll get them to score the budget out of ten how did they see it for their area of interest? Stick around for that if you want your one stop budget shop. That's after seven Timmy g you had a big weekend in footy. The treasurer himself. After seven thirty, we're gonna flashback in time with Michael Smith and run it the week in the usual way with feedback. Friday, David Penberthy, good morning to.
You, Good morning listeners, Good morning, and of course we will be catching up with Tommy Wren in about ten fifteen minutes time. Waking up as we are, although I start up and I'm pretty sure well did too, waking up to the happy news that pretty much officially almost one hundred percent guarantees almost Australia is into the World Cup, having beaten Japan in totally ordinary and then ultimately completely thrilling game one meal in the ninetieth minute. I think I wake the rest of the family up. Well, I don't know about you. A bit a yelping going on? Are you saving yourself for the paces on the weekend today?
A couple of hours actually, Saudi Arabia won two nearly against Bahrain overnight, so it's an eight gold difference, so they need to win by four goals in Jedder.
Now don't they need to win on more than that because it's a home game for Saudi Arabia, So if the difference is eight goals, they need to beat.
Us by four, so we lose four they gained for okay, so let me be equal. I actually have no idea what the tipe breaker is at that point in time. I was thinking last night. There's been some spectacular moments the soccers have qualified for the World Cup, none more so than John o'wezey's penalty against Uruguay after years and years and years and years of heartbreak. There was the the Andrew Redmain Antics that we called on the air four years ago, so much fun against Peru. This was about as lame as it gets. They were awful last night, terrible against Japed's schoolboys.
Well, actually no, they were awful in the first half. That got better after the second half was good, got better. Yeah, but the goal, it's terrific. We're great at producing awesome moments, but you wouldn't want to be selling the DVD.
PA because the secret to the Soccaro's success is South Australia. Just If Riley mcgree starts, I think that's a very different game that ball backwards to as he's Yeah.
That was Rodny mcgrae. Incredible turn and cutback, so he's out from Gawler. That's right, yeah, right, it's my parochial view of Soccary's success. We'll talk more about that with Rennie very shortly. I spent my entire childhood hoping the Soccaros will make it through to the World Cup. I wasn't old enough to remember nineteen seventy four. Then they didn't make it to two thousand and six. As a child, as a teenager, my life was framed around every four years, false dawns, watching blokes walking off the ground in tears and Monteverde even Sorceman's thrown at them. So I don't care how we do it, Yeah, likes we do it.
Yeah, absolutely, absolutely should be more stress free in future, given them expanded, how many teams.
Are at the World Cup now?
Only the most spectacular thing going on in the news in the world at the moment is the total and utter meltdown in the relationship between Donald Trump and Elong Musk. And even that sentence doesn't do justice to what has transpired whilst you have been sleeping. Now, this has been similar in the background. Donald Trump's big beautiful bill, as he calls it, it's an all encompassing we call it sort of an omnibus bill in Australia. I think it has lots in it. The thing that Elon must takes issue with is it contains a lot of new spending. And his point is, you kind of got me in to reel in the trillion dollar debt, and that's what we campaigned on, and now you're expanding it. And now Donal Trump's even saying things like the only thing him and Elizabeth Warren agree on is there should be no debt ceiling. Like, so, Elon feels totally sidelined. Well, it got from being a hot policy debate to becoming ultra personal and weird overnight. Let's start with this from Trump on me.
He knew it better than almost anybody, and he never had a problem until right after he left. And if you saw the statements he made about me, which I'm sure you can get very reason, it's very fresh on tape, he said the most beautiful things about me.
And he hasn't said bad about me personally, but.
I'm sure that'll be next. But I'm very disappointed in Elan. I've helped Elan a lot.
Look, Elin and I had a great relationship. I don't know what will lend.
Him were Donald Trump went on to they've had this twitter slanging match or truth social In Trump's case, he says, the easiest way for the government to save money in our budget billions of dollars is to terminate Elon's government subsidies and contracts, to which Elon Musk replied, this just keeps getting better. Go ahead, make my day. And then he went, well, he'll do commission the Dragon X rocket, which means no one can get down from the space station. So he's, oh, that's the end of the space station, so good, go ahead, can cancer my contract. Then things got really weird. Musk said that I'll just read this tweet out.
No, he went on.
He said that Trump would would have lost the election without him, you know. A bit more back and forth, and then Musk comes out with this time to drop the really big bomb. Trump is in the Epstein files. This is the real reason they've not been made public. Have a nice day, DJ to Then he replied to it, saying, mark this post for the future. The truth will come out like this is as spectacular as spectacular a breakup between probably the two most hope I pro for people, and I can't imagine a bigger, more dramatic.
I'm feel sorry for Musk He's basically spent months off his actual day job running his own company. He's trashed his brand, he's dragged down his share price, He's been exposed to huge gains by other electric car makers and battery makers. So yeah, he was the one who was doing Trump the favor, not the other way around.
I think from must perspective, it feels like, yeah, I mean, the guy's personal standing has taken a battering totally. People literally target his business as though he's like, well, he was upgrading like a political apparatic for a while, and he did it all in the name of bringing down the debt.
From the Marian Council chambers to Western Europe. His name is mud with a lot of bad and he feels like it's all for nought. Yeah, but criikee. The Epstein claim is off the chart. It's a good meat tray topic.
The meat trait topic is the most spectacular breakups in history. Let us know eight double two to three double o double. I'll give you some categories because some things will immediately come to mind. Music, I mean, the Beatles is a pretty spectacular breakup, isn't it of one of the biggest bands of all time? Arguably the biggest sport's great I mean Adelaie football club. Hello, there's been a few relationship breakups than that one.
Politics. You're going to cricket teams too.
Politics might be the easiest. Yeah eight double two to three double O, double O. The meat tray this morning. Tell us what you think the most spectacular breakup in history is all one of them all thanks to Olga's Fine Foods. We love Olga's award winning South Australian food company that started in nineteen seventy eight. They've been making Shivapchi's for fifty years. Their products available in all supermarkets in South Australia.
We love Olgers. Now that Elon's at the loose end as well, maybe maybe Malik could give him a call because he's got some views about debt that might actually help this government, particularly in the eyes of what Standard and Paused had to say within minutes of the budget's released yesterday. Seems to be a bit of a trend of merging here, folks, particularly with state governments, particularly with state labor governments. Don't spend money you don't have.
How hard is it forty eight point five billion dollars on the credit card.
Debt rises by four billion dollars a year every year for the next three years. Apparently it's just going to stop when it's to forty eight point six year, right, the next story will be fifty two billion, fifty six billion, sixty billion. It's ridiculous. Is the equivalent of having I don't know, fifty grand in your bank account and going, all right, so what I'll do. I've got fifty grand in my bank account. I'll spend thirty thousand dollars on a trip to Europe. I'll spend five thousand dollars on new lawn, and I'll spend thirty thousand dollars on a mega solar panels slash battery set up, and I'll buy a new car. So with fifty thousand in the bank, that adds up to about ninety thousand dollars. Yet that sounds good. Exactly what state budget planning is.
Debt to revenue blows out every year as well, because sometimes they try to say, oh, I know the debt the headline figures going out, but we're bringing more in.
But I don't get all this nerdling of stuff. And when I was in the lock up yesterday, I actually had notes of things you've said on air seriously written on the back of Live reds. Seriously, I did, because I know your figures are right, but I was just in there thinking it just feels risky. The whole thing feels risky. And then the thing that I thought was really big, and I don't know if you think it was big too, but the fact that standard and pause came out straight away and missued a warning saying, hey, guys, if you keep this up, you're going to lose your credit rating.
Totally independent rating agencies as well as they've got no dog in the fight.
Yeah, that felt to me like a generalized warning to governments everywhere about the whole principle of this.
But you cannot live on the Nevan ever completely. The treasure will be on the program, will be raiding the budget and talking more about it over the course of the morning. So stick around eight double two three double double is the number going to take a break. Weather news headlines had Tom Ren.
Shortly David Pemberthy and Will Goodings six to nine five double a breakfast twenty ten.
Minutes after six A couple of news headlines before we get to weather and sport lots to talk about on that front. Tom read at a moment. A giant convoy of twenty seven trucks has arrived in the mid North loaded with hundreds of tons of donated hay to what is one of the worst drought effected areas in the state. The procession left New South Wales on Wednesday. It arrived in Jamestown yesterday afternoon. Fifteen hundred bales will be distributed at more than two hundred farmers in desperate need of feed for their livestock. The freight costs paid for by the state government's drought subsidy scheme. An assault in the Northwestern suburbs is leader the rest of a forty nine year old man. Police were called to Torrens Rode at Sinclaire just before half past two yesterday afternoon and found a fifty one year old man who had been struck on his arm by an axe. He's been treated in hospital for non life threatening injuries. The suspect lives at the same address and has been charged with committing an assault that causes harm.
Tell you why there's some genuine animals out there, aren't they? And that's actually a bit of rude thing to say about real members of the animal kiddom. The idea of getting around with an axe or a machete, well, even sitting aside the actual horror of doing that to somebody else, Can you imagine how horrible it would be seeing something like that happen as the perpetrator. Yeah, horrific. Well everything about it. I don't know where are these people? Who are they who've got deep seated issues? Good, more issues than the reader's digest, more issues than the reader's digest. That's a nice old turnive phrase.
Now, Donald Trump, before he was feuding with Elon Musk, he was on the phone with Jijinping, and then he went straight to a face to face meeting with German Chancellor Frederick Mertz, the president praising Germany's defense spending boost and the chance to stem money going to Russia via twelve hundred kilometer long gas line.
He knew it better than almost anybody.
Oh no, that's that's.
Until I came along.
Nobody ever heard, not one person in this room ever heard of Nordstream too.
You probably did, because it went to Germany. It's the only money. This was a mistake, But I started and I used to go with Angela. I said, well, wait a minute. We're spending all this money.
To defend you against Russia and then you're giving Russia billions of dollars a month.
What kind of a deal is that?
You know what the biggest success of I think the Trump tenure thus far is in certainly in a foreign policy sense, has been getting everyone to kick in a gear with the defense budgets across Europe.
That has been a genuine success. Yeph. The other thing too, I reckon getting Mexico lifted. This game on border control. Yep, that's been good. That's been long over. Ge the you know, the halfway used to be the Mexican president because the current one's good. Even know she's from the same man left wing party. But her predecessor he had this saying in Spanish about how to deal with the drug cartels are brassos no balasos, and the brassos is a hug, A balasa is a bullet up a clacker. So his saying was bullets hugs, not bullets. Right, So with people being beheaded every three minutes, do you want to hug a drug dealer? Kloile Willer and Chiuala and Monterey and you know Tijuana, well, the whole north of the country is basically a war zone. And his slogan was hugs not bullets, and gee, didn't that work a.
Treat nine point five degrees outside of the city at the moment today seventeen the top seven to twenty meals of rain.
This forecast is extraordinary. I'm genuinely excited about this rain.
Well, it's already been coming down a little bit, seven to twenty today, we're expecting then tomorrow seven to twenty five on top.
You know what makes it way more bearable? No school sport because the public of course. So you go and stand in the sludge at Aberfall Park at six thirty am tomorrow watching heard of eight year olds chasing a ball for a will time by the nature.
Thirteen to the top on Sunday, that'll be a cold one four to fifteen meals, and any other week this year that would have been something we'd have spent all week talking about. Monday top of sixteen, up to five meals of rain, Tuesday seventeen and up to two Wednesday sixteen, up to five meals of rain Thursday sixteen, up to five meals of rain Saturday. That's a break of the season, isn't it. Yeah, well that's legit, and how goods this scenario?
Waking up feeling slightly unwell but rugged up under the doner, having gone to the beer and barbecue festival all night the night before. Oh now you're he only thought is where's my bacon and egg roll? Top?
Bred's at the five double a breakfast studio. He's rugged up. He's got the heavy judy jacket on. Get a three K cash card and select the models. During Augustine a Mitsuvishi's Endo Financial Year sailbo if you're any.
Morning, will morning David? Yet it's great to have that rain, isn't it? And looking forward to the footy tonight. We'll get to football, but let's start with the soccer. I heard you talking about it a little bit earlier. What a result. It wasn't pretty. They were totally outplayed really for the majority of the match, particularly that first half. But in the end you just need one great moment and it came right on ninety minutes.
This was it.
Oh that's a lovely to buy right him? A grade I cut back got you got that's last minutes of the game.
It was a beautiful finished that audio thanks to ten Simon Hill. Great care I mean.
The second last call by the way, Yeah, that's right.
He's going back to the UK. But he just curled it in, didn't he.
Like it was a great wrong foot.
Yeah.
It's just incredible.
The ability to turn that ball around and the keeper had no nothing more he could have done.
It was going to go past him like he was full stretch, like my doing a star jump to get it and then to get the power to kick it. It was unbelievable.
Was a fabulous finish. Wasn't it so worthy of putting them into a World Cup? Wasn't it?
Now?
They can still miss out because Saudi Arabia won overnight. So our goal difference Australia's is eight plus eight, Saudi Arabia's is zero. So Saudi Arabia won by five goals, that'd be plus five, would be plus three, So that's that that can happen.
Well, I want to jinx it, but the way Tony Popovich sets up besides, you need three games to put five goals past the soctres, and I don't care.
Who you are.
It's a very pragmatic approach and getting results.
Saudi Arabia have scored in nine games for this World Cup qualifying campaign. Sadi Arabia have scored six, so that that'd have to score five in one game, so it would be a herculean.
So is an evil and weird sport. I mean, do you watch you watched the previous eighty nine minutes of last night's gaming Australia. No way Australia are going to score here. Yeah, that's right, because they're losing. We had thirty percent possession. Yeah, we had one other shot on goal. And that's the only issue, isn't it? Like it's great we beat Japan for the first time in two thousand and nine.
But the broader issue is that they're a much better team.
Oh well that was that was their seconds or thirds?
That's really I.
Mean that the depth is scary.
They are one of the great footballing nations in the world though, now I think very good.
Yeah, since the Brazil of Asia the short close in passes technically magnificent. Just stopped the ball with their chest quick.
Yeah, so slick. Last night the round kicked off the hockball back. Well they look good, didn't they. And I'll tell you why. Riddle me this Tom Debratore, one of the best midfielders in the competition playing in defense.
I saw your tweet last night reading I thought, going on, I.
Don't reckon I was invested into top honestly. Honestly, I've got one of the best midfielders in the game. Why don't you playing defense, big fellow? You do that in under eight stuff, don't you. Anyway, That's why I'm not.
The coach, but worked, maybe you need to be the game.
The Crows tonight, huge game.
What a game.
It's Rory lad back sid draprow. He's playing Lead and Smith in the same side, which is interesting. We'll see if it works.
Yeah, I mean trigue unless Smith's the sub. I can't see without a significant reshuffle. How Led, Smith and Miller all on the same team.
Yeah, I think one of them has to be. Smith feels like the sub.
Yeah, probably, which is I think.
I think his film has been better than Rory LED's. I think he's given more.
Yeah.
Yeah, to be honest, in that position.
Five hundred game last week he was sid draper.
Oh, so look to play a full game in the sand.
Yeah, and I want to see him back in that side. But he probably just needs a bit of confidence and a bit of a run. I know that'll frustrate a few fans, but he'll get back. He's too good a young player, not too but just needs to probably touch the leather a few times in.
The four quarters in the sand for was probably better for you as a player than playing twenty minutes in the AFL.
Yeah, after a while, I think, you know, three or four weeks that can probably be a bit difficult. So we'll see how he goes. Big game for the Power tomorrow night. They've made three changes. They get some troops back, but it's just about season over. If they don't win that one is probably if not already, So that's a huge game for them up in Canberra.
Your ready, Thanks boys, good work.
Tom, David Pemberthy and Will Goodings six to nine five double a breakfast.
Well, Will's been held up just for a moment, David, that's all right. He'll be back in one moment. But luckily it is time for my segment, so that kind of sits in nicely. We don't need Will for that. No, this is good, big thanks to Wallace Cinema's movies are better at Wallace, essays home a big screen, Magic and entertainment.
Is it Wallace dot com dot au.
It's a big week for you, mate, not one, but two movie reviews in one week.
I know, I know, as Will wanders in into the guest Mike, I just thought I'd take over for the day, Will, because you know, I thought I have had so many movies going on that I thought I'd just take over and host this segment.
Yeah.
No, I think it's about time hostile takeover.
Coup Filma and Louise nineteen ninety one yesterday to all those people who said it might be nice to have a lighter movie after pulp fiction happening. Ten minutes of film and Louise not.
Exactly no light and the ending, the.
Ending was so very grim, sort of stunned at the middle. All of the middle bit though, loved it.
Yeah, great soundtrack, tee.
Great soundtrack. So the start of Filma and Louise, I was like, yeah, I can get into Geena Davis, Susan Sarandon and then bam, sexual assault just like pulp fiction, bit of sexual assault. It's been a lot of sexual assault themes in the last b movies, so that you moved a little bit heavy. Next week, well, happily. I like animals watership down, so that took a little bit to get over. Some people might call me soft.
But it's essential to the storyline.
Well that's the whole reason why the storyline exists.
Is did you regard it, Lucy as a feminist masterpiece?
No, I wouldn't say it was a masterpiece. I got the feminist tones, female liberation, breaking the mold.
Well without men who he needs them?
Well, yeah, yeah, some days I don't disagree with that statement, especially dealing with you guys.
Where you drive home.
Yeah, I really liked it.
I looked it up.
I said words to describe Filma and Louise, and the first one was open road story, and I was like, yeah, they're in a car, it's a road story. But it's more than that. Obviously.
Does it make you want to drive across America in a much better way than they ultimately did?
Not in the slightest, don't you think?
All the landscape, so they're driving through the night Monument Valley and everything like that, incredible.
There's enough dust uff in the clear valley at the moment in the drought. I could just go do that for a bit. I also, I'm a bit worried about going to America at the moment, like a lot of people, to.
Be honest, but kick your tweets before you go.
Yeah, well, are we on the list of twelve countries currently banned by Trump? No, we're not, thankfully we're not. So Thelm and Louise, I really liked the bit when Geena Davis realizes that she's just now a hard and criminal and she locks a police officer in the back of his own car and she says this, No, I know it's crazy.
I just feel like I got a knack for this.
They just accepted their fate and just gone on the run doing lots of crime crimes. Brad Pitt though, very very skinny, young Brad Pitt. Yeah, I didn't do it for me.
I've said before.
I've said before, Brad Pitt doesn't do it for me. We've had several ladies on the text line agree with me there, but on the whole Thelm and Louise, the grim ending, God, I was sad with the ending. That sort of brought it down slightly for me. I'm going to give it two and a half.
You're tough, Marcae Leagues.
Is that because I gave Pulp Fiction a one.
Well, let's just not talk about that. Forget that never happened.
I did give Top one a five though, so yeah, swings and roundabouts will tell us.
What you think. People. The great thing about your reviews, Oh that is interesting, the pulp fiction one. I mean, Will and I had our thoughts. A lot of listeners were straight away going, yeah, I'm with you. I hated it, so you know, this is this is why we do this. But I think next week will definitely you know, you can you can watch maybe I don't know, Sing, Have you ever seen Sing? That's a great movie. We'll line up something softer for you.
Lucy and polp fiction might actually be eligible for the meat Troy this morning and was we consider spectacular breakups. Maybe they'll never together though, so it doesn't quite fit the meat tray. Thanks to Olga's Fine Foods family underward winning South Australian food company started in nineteen seventy eight, we're asking you about breakups. Given the spectacular Musk Trump breakdown. There's a few on the text line on zero before eight zero eight to thirty that came through. Ben says, how about this big breakups in history? This is going to agitate people. Port Adelaide's active treachery in nineteen ninety to leave the sandful Max Basheer called it a betrayal. At the time the Bays took Port to the Supreme Court. Actually, I guess that is a spectacular breakup? Is it complately the most storied team in the league going to war with the league about leaving. Thank you, Gillard and Rudd says. And in terms of spectacular breakoup, it's a really good one. This one in a numerical sense is probably right up there, Sharon says. The biggest breakups resulting in the most expensive Bill Gates divorce in twenty twenty one from Linda Gates. Melinda got seventy six billion, billion billion, seventy six b billion. Jeff Bezos wife Mackenzie Bezos got thirty eight billion. Sharon, thank you. We'll keep them coming in I fac Let's take some calls on the Metrey Dave in South brighton spectacular breakups?
Dave, what have you got for us morning, guys?
We'll probably my opinion, one of the worst and saddest was to see Prince Charles and Prince Terry the dramas they went through with their mother and the funeral and being paraded in front of the world, and these days they don't even speak. One of the saddest ones I reckon.
Yeah, you're right, it's a really sad breakup.
They must think about that all the time. But you know, you write a book basically bucketing your entire family, what do you expect you same? Good morning, Good.
Morning guys, is raining here at severin this morning?
Excellent?
Yeah.
One thing that the public never ever accepted is when Charles and Diana break up, because if they didn't, she'll still be alive today. And the public never accepted it.
And it's horrible, as the Queen called it. That's right, Thank you sir.
Terry and elizabethials that one more before we get to a break Terry.
From Kapunda actually, but not from a used to be on my comfort boy.
Now, all right, congratulations on the move to Kapunda.
Thank you very much.
I was going to say the Challenger was a big breakup, but I'm going.
For the Burling Wall because that's probably the biggest breakup that's brought people together.
Yeah, good one.
Yeah, the breakup of the Soviet that is a big breakup. It's a good one, thank you thinking eight double two three double a double. Lots of good ones coming from the text line as well. We'll get to some more of those short lead.
What about Steve Warre and Shane Warn That's a good sporting one. So weird, isn't it two of the greatest cricketers ever and they're just sharing the team the probably cannot stand test team of all time or in them. In Steve War's defense, I reckon that. Blokes still puzzled as to why I Warn he hated him so much there.
I mean, like there's what's this oil and water? They're not exactly personalities that you'd think naturally would mix. Like what are the chances those two blocks are getting on? They went in the same cricket team father told you by Steve waw story.
No, he walked in in the office one day at the newspaper in Sydney and he went and sat down in the corner, turned on the computer himself and was just typing away. And I went to over one on my colleagues and I said, Steve war and he said, he insists he writes his column himself. He doesn't have a ghost writer, which most athletes do, but he likes doing it in the newsroom because he wants to feel like he's doing it in a proper news environmentally. So he came in every week and did you sit there in the corner typing his eight hundred words? And well I spoke to him a couple of times and I could barely talk. It was just like, Hey, Steve, see he's sitting there typing, Like is this guy really here? Have this godlike presence in the newsroom?

Good morning David, and well the.
Rain it's coming down. Looks like we're going to get fair whack of it over the weekend too.
Yeah.
Absolutely, Having a look since nine am yesterday, we have seen four point eight millimeters in the city at nine point two up at Mount Lofty and as you mentioned, we do have that line moving through at the moment. Having a look at the minimums that got as low as four point eight at Mount Lofty. In the city, our low was nine point three and that's where we're sitting currently. We're heading for a maximum of seventeen degrees in the city Elizabeth Glenelgor no longer and fifteen for Mount Barker, and as you mentioned, we do have that shower activity continuing not only today but into the weekend as well. We also will see fresh to strong and gusty winds at times, particularly as we head towards Saturday and particularly about the Rangers as well. And the peak of that cold air will come through on Sunday, so we're looking at a maximum of just thirteen degrees on Sunday, but we will see showers easing on Monday and the temperature starting to increase back up to sixteen.
Thanks for that, Hannah, have a great weekend. Try to keep dry all right.
That's sad to save Bolton you. Constable Holly Frisbee joins as holy Men's been arrested following an assault in the Western suburbs yesterday.
Yeah, good mornings, Ovid and will that's correct. Just before twoint thirty yesterday police were called to Torrens Road at Saint clair Are for reports of an assault. Emergency services arrived and located a fifty one year old man from the address who'd been struck to his arm by an axe. He was taken to hospital where he's been treated for non life threatening injuries.

I have to get a bigger police media unit. Well, we arrest in everybody.
Wade Burns is going to debut as part of our as part of our panel for the first time after seven o'clock rating the budget. Because it was such a law and order heavy budget, we thought we should hear from the police Association. He had a sense of what they're going to score it. I reckon theory, probably gonna get a pretty good score.
I think Grant Stevens might have written part of this budget himself.
I'll tell you what hand to the treasurer. It pays to be the police Minister and treasurer.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's good. I think the best thing that ever happened to Sapole was was Steven Mulligan wearing the two hats and taking on the police portfolio, because it suddenly meant that next time he spoke to the Commissioner he was actually doing it with one hand on his calculat exactly right.
All right, let's send someone off the Best of Sasha. Well, yeah, that's coming up in a couple of weeks, weeks from today. Would you believe We're going to be at the Adelaide Oval for Best of SA And each and every morning we give away tickets, we profile a great South Australian business and sometimes as an additional little prize and they're like this morning a one hundred dollars Virginia Home and Garden gift voucher.

Yes, so happy to celebrate with all our long standing clients and the new clients these forty amazing years.
How did it all start?
It started with mum and dad in a backshd down at Wingfield many years ago, an old tin shed similar to what we make now for people. It's quite amazing, from rainwater tanks to sheds, hangars and anything else you like.

The most recent thing we have built is for Sapol to keep the horses in down here at Grand Junction Road. So next time you see the horses down at when you see them on the roads, they've actually been stabled in one of our sheds.
That would have been a fun project.
It really was great.
Look, congratulations on the forty years in business and pass that on to your dad. I know you must be so tough that you've carried the business on. And we look forward to seeing you on the gala night for best of essays. Thank you so much, and we look forward to having a little bit of a party and a celebration.

Keeping the breakups going, Daniel points out one that was a real biggie from the football world, Wayne Carey and the North Melbourne Football Club. Oh yeah, Mark from Para Hills, says Andrew McLeod and Tyson Edwards. It's a sad one though. Yeah it is, isn't it because they are really good mates. One here will Big break up for all last year spitting the dummy the Adelaide Football Club and suddenly announcing he was barracking for Geelong.
I never said I was brick.
I think we'll like that final scene in The Departed where Matt Damon's are raising the file. I don't think that there's I don't think there's a record of that show.
There is no We upset a few Crows fans because I dared to say that maybe they could learn from sides that win a lot.
They have and they have, they have they made will tonight will well, let's hope so reckon they win tonight. They should. The rain makes me nervous. Why is that bad? Is that bad for the.
Tall forward line? Unless they've swing a late change just feels a bit unbalanced. I'm not sure.
But who do you put in? Who are the smaller people that go down there?
Anyone who can you know, anyone with their hands close to their feet would be a good would be good. We need short people. Yeah, exactly right. Five doble news is coming up. Were back with more shortly.
David Pemberthy and Will Goodings six to nine, five double a breakfast.
Seven after seven Our big state budget rapped coming up in just a moment. The meat tray thanks to Olga's We Love Olgas find Foods.
Inspired by the spectacular breakup of Elon Musk and Donald Trump and started the cracks started appearing over tariffs. The big spending bill drew the eye of Elon Musk. Donald Trump said, well, mate, you just upset that we got rid of the ev subsidies for electric cars. Musk up the ante by saying, well, guess what the reason he won't release the Epstein files is because Donald Trump is in them. Trump said, well, we'll cancel all your contracts, and Musk said, well, good luck getting anyone back from the space station because I'm turning them.
Rockets off like this is what happened overnight. The popcorn out and enjoy this one.
The other thing that's happened, truth, social just crashed Donald Trump's because everyone's everyone is loading it up wanting to see what Trump's response is going to be. So it's the system has just completely crashed. Anyway that's going.
It seems like the final scene in Jurassic Park where the two t Rexes have walked into the gift shop.
Great analogy. In the meantime here in South Australia where dissecting this is the state budget the Treasurer coming up after seven thirty. But we have a custom here on the program we've done for a number of years now where we get big stakeholders and key industries affected by big parts of the budget that come on and they get a minute or so to rate the budget out of ten. One of our regulars is Well Frankly, the CEO of the Master Builders Association here in South Australia, will good morning to you. What did you make of the budget?
Good morning?
Well, well, you know it was a stable budget from a stable government. There were no Nazi surprises, no large tax increases, so from that perspective it was good. However, it almost felt a bit like, if to use the football analogy, it felt like the government's well ahead at three quarter time, kicking with the breeze in the last quarter and really just trying to avoid any major injuries. There was nothing particularly spectacular about the budget. It wasn't a bad budget, but having seen what the government's done the last few years, I think you know, it wasn't their best one. It was really a big reminder of how important housing is, not only to our state's economy but the state budget.
There was a small surplus deliver, but there was a windfall of about two hundred and seventy million dollars, more than forecasts collected in judy to about two point six billion dollars. So it's really important that the housing industry remains strong so we can invest in in education, health, law and order and that type of thing. So probably a missed opportunity was to reinvest some of that money back into skills. I know the government spending a lot of money on the technical colleges and free free tape and stuff like that, but some things that was modest stars that might not sound like a big deal but would make a really big impact on the ground as subsidies for mature as apprentices, tool allowances, ppe that type of stuff. Because we estimate that we'll need an extra fifteen thousand workers within three years to meet demand when all that house and the super projects come online.
So what do you give it? Will with that?
Oh, I give it six and a half out of ten.
Six and a half out of ten. Thank you.
We'll probably for the Master Builders Association. Andrew Kay, the CEO of the Essay Business Chamber, will be really disappointed. Use the football analogy because that's U Lea's area, Andrew Goodbarding. Do you you see the budget?
Yeah, I'm dirty on Will, but no doubt about that. Will be able to love dirty one.
Thank you.
Yes, look at feel like a pre election placeholder. Really, it was a bit of a showbag of little teasers for the business sector. There's enough to keep us interested in there. In some ways, there was a little bit of something for everyone. If you're an entrepreneur or a startup, there's fifty million dollars going into an eventually capital fund, and that sort of fund in the past has generated some pretty good results for the state. If you're a small business, there's twenty million in energy efficiency grants to help you save money on your power. There's a couple of programs to help you scale up or grow your business if you're a small business, if you've been hurt by the US tariff regime. There's five million dollars to kick in for our exporters. They look best support for businesses that have been affected by drought conditions. There's support for Wayala, there's money for tourism to try and attract business events. So there's a little bit of everything. But what's missing is that for more this reform agenda that we're looking for around here, such as payroll tax and compliance and regulations and red tape. So hopefully we'll see that in the lead up to the election, with some promises from each party there. But I do like to have a croize them. As you know, I was so desperately wanting to say that they were a bit of a rebel after but as such a such a safe, safe budget I'm getting at seven and I'm just saying that they're taking it one week at a time, and the lead up to March.
One week at a time. I like that.
Let's go to Brad Perry, the CEO of the grain producers in South Australia, A talker with regard to this budget and how drought has impacted it.
Brad, how did you see it?
Well, guys, I've probably lost a bit of time because I think we'll probably.
He's still talking.
We got seventy three million dollars for the drought obviously, which was announced, so that wasn't you We knew that was coming. And there's other funding in there for bi security, forty five million dollars for fruit fly, forty four million dollars to replace a research vessel. Other than that, there's not a lot new for us. So I sort of describe it as you're going to an ice cream place and you've got, you know, forty eight flavors to choose from. You've got some pretty funky flavors that are a bit bold and innovative, and then you've got some of the other flavors that are not so much the traditional and the government's gone and chosen the vanilla. So it's not good, it's not bad, and sort of somewhere in the middle of sticks out of ten.
Very good. Thank you, Brad. That was excellent.
Ate flavors.
Ross Womersley's the see of the essay, Council of Social Services Ross not.
A heap in the way of cost of living. How did you see it?
Yeah, we were a little disappointed, a bit like everybody else. I think we'd said to the government, look, we think you need to be bold at this point in time. Don't go into a holding pattern, and I think we saw a holding patent budget emerge. A few weeks ago. The Premier stood in the Parliament and said, look, we're going to develop a social statement because we've got an ambition for South Australia to be inclusive economy where the well being of all South Australians is front and center. And we were really hoping that this budget was going to be one of the first steps on delivering on that ambition. It wasn't.
There.
There was certainly some money that will go to some households with kids at school who use public transport, some assistance there that will help with cost of living. There was assistance to a number of regional centers and that drought relief thing drought or relief support, which in fact will be very important for many people in our regions. But generally we think the government lacked its ambition, and you know, we've been dealing with a house in christ it was forty years in the making and the measures in this budget don't go nearly far enough for us to see the issues of homelessness and the housing affordability issues really addressed, and so we're a little disappointed. Generally we'd think it was a six, but because we wanted them to be so bold, I'm saying it's a four this time.
Okay, thank you Ross for out of ten that I reckon to be a slightly high score from Wade Burns, the president of the Police Association of South Australia, on the panel for the first time post budget. Wade, good morning to you. How did you rate the budget?
Yeah, good morning gentlemen. We've been lobbying for increases in staffing and better attention initiatives for some time now, and I've certainly made no secret of the fact that our members are understaffed and overwhelmed. So yesterday's budget announcement from our point of view, was an excellent result, not only for our members but also for policing in this state. It's definitely one of the largest, if not the largest, representation of the biggest sort of increase to establishment staffing at any time, certainly bigger than Recruit three one three, which was from about.
A decade ago.
So we're very happy with the outcome, but really it's now continued upon the Staypole executive leadership team to actually recruit quality people into all of these new positions.
You're going to have to move into the State Bank building way. With all the new members you're going to get, you're going to be one of the biggest unions on the planet within a couple of years at this rate.
Well, that's really we're going to hold a watching brief on that because we really need to make sure that the Staypole Executive Leadership team actually start to recruit people into these positions. And that's been a long challenge. Policing has been in a staffing crisis and still is and we need to really work hard to get people in these new positions that have been created created by yesterday's budget announcement.
So would you score it wide?
Oh, it's a tough one.
I think it's a really strong outcome for police on face value, I think it could be as high as an eight and a half, pushing even higher. As I said, contingent upon one thing, and that's really staypoul'sibility to recruit these additional numbers and actually fund the policing headcount right up.
To the top.
So night and a half the nine but continued on Stapol's outcome with recruiting good stuff.
We thank you for that.
I figured they'd like that, the Police Association. And just last but not least, certainly not numerically, because health is essentially the largest component of the budget. I am a South Australia President. Dr Peter Subramanium, Doctor Subermanium, good morning to.
You, Good morning, Good morning, gentlemen.
How'd you see the budget?
Look?
I was listening to some of the earlier callers and I think you know we we were to use the footy analogy. This is the first quarter and we're four golds down. I've got to say there were a couple of good pastors and important ones. Additional hospital funding one point seven billion, that's recognizing that our hospitals are in distress. Maybe a five or another good pass on the corresponder. That's thirteen point nine millions for in proving access to mental health and also working with the police on that one. But certainly you know, we've missed a couple of tackles on big issues hospital capacity, ramping, GP access, no investment into workforce, and no mention of the impact of the payroll tax and GPS that's contributing to the problem with the GP access. So if I were to rate this budget, unfortunately the treasure doesn't passed on our score. So he's four out of ten.
Just finally, Doctor Petter Supermanium. They're not going to make their ramping promise by the electionality.
Yeah, I think the idea that you can solve ranting by making a budget announcement is you know, you don't solve budgets and budget announcements don't treat patients workforce dos. So the budget is going to be you know, you'd hope that the budget would be a way in which you can see a way forward to solve ranping rather than and you know, a single announcement itself. No, the answer is no, I don't think this budget is going to solve branding.
Thank you. What I wrap that is? So NBA six point five, Business Chamber seven, Grain Producers six seikos four say pipe point five and the AM at the end didn't pass four. I think before four, Yeah, mixed bad.
I tell you what, ten out of ten to our contributors on the panel this morning, because did anyone gever one get the brief or what you're doing? A budget wrap on five double A and there pretty much every zingle person linked to football.
Somehow terrific well played. That was absolutely superb never in the space of western quarter of an out.
There you go, we'd love to get your thoughts. Two folks there before eight zero eight thirteen ninety five you can call us an eight double two three double o double. We're talking the spectacular breakups for the meet tray this morning and you can call in and win that thanks to Olga's find foods if you've got one, getting them from the world of music, sport, politics, plenty of political breakups and the Royal family, as it turns out, has provided a few as well. After seven, we're gonna check traffic and come back with Timmy g in just a moment. Registered for the Big Brunch because everybody counts. Go to the Big Brunch Drive dot com.
David Pemberthy and Will Goodings six to nine five double A breakfast.
Twenty three after seven If you're just waking up the Donald Trump Eylon Musk breakup is has reached proportions that I don't think anyone imagine we alway still might end nastily. It's ended more nasty than anyone could have possibly imagined overnight.
What's the great line from Naked Gun. I don't think there's any need to resort to juvenile name calling, mister Poppy Pans. I think that's the point rat we're asking.
We're talking about breakups for the meat tray this morning thanks to Olga's. We love Olgar's fine foods. Try their shavatijis. They are world class. They Graham and Eagle Farm. What's a famous breakup?
Yeah, good morning guys. It's going back a few years with the bas and Pilka Feeder Plus they were at Tea. Everybody loved them and one day they cast Busted U and they the songs that the day Trip to Victim. Yeah, they were the good old days. Everybody was devastated when they split up.
What happens with radio teams, it's just.
Inevitably we'll end up hating each other. Bred in One Tree Hill, famous broad cups.
All the morning day and will Now this one's takes a bit step further famous breakups and really you know it reignited was Elizabeth Tale and Richard Burton. They got they got married and divorced more times than I've had Bird Sunday.
Right, it's got two wells and good morning.
Got I guys, I'm going to keep it in the free sing boys. What about the North Melbourne Wayne Carey scandal? The biggest, wouldn't it.
That's probably the most spectacular in football history. I would have thought one of the best bits of calling ever. Godness commed. Yes, the Crows the North Melbourne game when Carrie was besmirching our jumper, when Stephens and Archer fired up and Stevens basically ran the link to the field that's trying to build carry and Committy goes, this isn't a football match, this is the family court. She's just stunning line and.
Speaking about the podcast with steps Tim Ginneber on five Double a Breakfast.
Let's talk footy, Timmy g on a Friday morning out of a big weekend of football. Before we get to the footy, Timmy, you got a spectacular breakup for us mane oh.
Look I've got a couple of touch on boys. One was really quite sad, and I was right in the middle of it. Was the end of nineteen eighty seven. Port Adelaide did not reappoint Russell Ebert, and I gotta tell you that was. It was probably one of the most controversial times of the footy club when I was there, and I know that was. There was a supporter led march down to the Lighthouse Hotel, sorry, the lighthouse itself, where they got up on the top and made a speech and they were talking about, you know, overturning the board and the like. And we were told in no uncertain terms as a plane group that we were not to be at that lighthouse march. And Greg Phillips, being the leader that he is, gathered us all up and he said, now listen, boys.
The club's right.
We can't be at the lighthouse.
He said.
But they didn't say we couldn't be at the Lighthouse Hotel. So come to the hotel, unlocked the doors that we can watch from there.
Was in his divisive behind the closed doors of the club as it was amongst supporters. Dimmy, it was huge, it was huge.
It was really it was just what would you say, it tore everybody, never tear us apart. It did tear a lot of people apart as far as you know, he was our favorite son, so it sort of shattered us all. And then straight away wasn't correct at least they got the appointment right, Well, that's correct, correct a.
Lot of things in hindsight. Yeah, but then next day grand final appearance of rememory.
Yeah, something like that.
But he he didn't return to the club, and being close to Russell, he said he was never going to return until every single board member was off the board, and it ended up being in nineteen ninety ninety, came back and he started up the community program that we now still run in the schools today. So well, just he had an incredible journey from that moment onwards. But we can all have an argument, you know sometimes you get back together.
Well that's right exactly from the history to the present. What are you expecting out of your boys against GWS this weekend?
It was funny we're talking during the week and you know, Rowie goes, what's going to be?
You know, what are you going to turn up?
What are you fixing?
And all the rest of it.
I said, you know what I'd do, I said, I would just strip it back and get it real simple. You know, talk about how you're going to set up behind the ball and all those sorts of things. But I just wants you to take the one mantra. At the end of twenty twelve, when you know we would, Maddi Primis gets sacked. We've only won eight games in two years. The club's on its knees with the tarps and all the rest of it. You know, Koshi comes on board, Ken comes on board. They said to Ken, what are you going to hang your hat on? And he said, well, we're starting from a low base. The one thing I'll promise you is that we'll never ever give in. And it was a real It's a mantra port Adelaide since eighteen seventy. So all they did was hang their hat. And I think you remember when we went to Adelaide. Oh well, they hung t shirts over the members seats to say never ever give in. And that was just one thing that you go, Okay, that's the one non negotiable that we're going to do. I think they need that right here and now just do that and I bet you you start getting better results.
Yeah, yeah, ay, team will catch up tonight at the showgrounds at beer and barbecue. Mate, it's gonna be a lot of fun.
It's going to be awesome. Pembo to talk about spectacular breakups. When I told the wife that I'm going there, she said, if I don't go, there will be a spectacular broakup right here.
And now I'll bring it along to mate. It's my daughter. My daughter's coming her boyfriend are mad wolf Mother fans, so we're going to have a bit of a family connection on the night as well. But it's gonna be great seeing you there.
It's gonna be awesome, buddy, look thought it, oh.
Mate, cheers good on your timmy big weekend of football of course, starting tonight at Adelaide over you hear it all here on five Double A.
We've got you covered right across the weekend five News Time. The Treasurer of South Australia the morning after handing down the state budget.
Is next David Pemberthy and Will Goodings six to nine, five Double A Breakfast.
Twenty one two eight. It is still dark outside. You'd say gloomy if not for the fact that I think we're all delight at its raining and it's going to rain significantly over the course of the weekend, stay indoors, enjoy the footy or whatever you do over a long weekend, or maybe tune into the Facebook and YouTube livestream right now because the Treasurer, obviously Uth Australia is in the chair. The morning after handing down the state budget, Treasurer A good morning to you.
Morning Will wanting David to be with you.
Thanks for coming in treasure Are we living beyond our means?
We've got the budget in surplus. It was one of the things that was important to us to do when we came into government, to get the budget back into surplus after COVID.
We've done that and.
We're a pretty anemic surplus.
Look this year.
It is because we've had to respond very quickly to things like Whyala and the drought. But that's you know, I think that underlines why you've got to aim for surpluses so that the budget's got some capacity to respond either to economic or community needs. And we've got not only a surplus for the current financial year, smaller though it is compared to what we originally predicted because of those reasons, but we're forecasting surpluses across the Ford estimates and that's what gives us the confidence while we've got capacity, while we can still deliver surpluses while making those massive investments in those big infrastructure projects and taking on the extra debt onto.
But Wyala and the drought two examples of how unforeseen events place pressure on the budget. So if you have such a slim surplus now and we've got borrowings that are so high that yesterday you've got a formal warning, a formal shot across your bows from Standard and pause about they might actually reduce the state's credit rating, aren't we running it too tight?
Well, I think you should also.
I think you've also got a factor in how else we responded to Wyala. So you know, we had six hundred million dollars set aside for the Hydrogen Jobs Plan, which we were committed to rolling out, and of course, over the last twelve months, as I said yesterday, particularly my budget speech, when it became clear to us that we were going to have to intervene on Wyala, and when it became clear that we were going to have to put in such a huge amount of money to partner with the Commonwealth to do that, you know, we've taken a responsible you know, it's a regrettable decision for us because we're passionate about hydrogen, but we've taken a responsible decision to defer that to make sure that we could ease the pressure on the state's balance sheet by stepping into wyaler so significantly. So, if you can keep the budget in surplus, if you're prepared to reorder your priorities to make sure that you've got room to act in support of either the economy or the community, I think that's a responsible way to manage the finances. Where have they all the surpluses over the future gone? Because if you look at the deterioration from the media budget review in the surpluses that will being forecast, then obviously this year it's gone from two hunred one million to eighteen and you've said, okay, whaler and drought and so forth. The following year it was meant to be four hundred and forty nine million, it's going to be one hundred and seventy nine. The year after that six hundred and forty three, it's going to be three hundred and sixty nine. And this all comes at the same time that the budget identifies the huge and unexpected windfall We got in the GST an extra three hundred and eighty six million over the period of twenty seven twenty eight, and an extra nearly eight hundred million dollars from taxation because of the price of property.
And so forth.
So there's a reheration in terms of surplus of nearly seven hundred and fifty million dollars at the same time as there's an unexpected windfall of an excess of a billion dollars. Where's all that money gone.
Well, specifically next financial year, a lot of that surplus has been set aside within the budget in case we need to extend the period of administration for WHALA. So that explains why next year's surplus is only one hundred and seventy nine Otherwise it would be half of our share or one hundred and eighty four million dollars higher. But yes, you're right, we have had stronger revenues and those surpluses are a little lower because that's given us the capacity to make some of the spending decisions that we announced yesterday in the budget, all the way from policing which you guys have reported on, to the health system to the cost of living support to have another goal in investing in housing as well. So each year you work out what's happening with your revenues, how much capacity you've got, and then you make your spending decisions accordingly.
Well to that end, there's an area of the budget you guys have set yourself targets about restrain spending and responsible budget management. One of those is operating expense growth not exceeding four percent a year. And this just strikes me as some heroic assumptions are being made given where we've been this last year operating expense growth, how much we spending grew by eight point eight percent. This year ahead it's forecast to four point one percent, so that's beyond the target. Then the years after that one point nine percent, two percent, two point eight percent. What gives you confidence that you guys are going to be able to control yourselves in the out years of the budget when all the evidence suggests you haven't met your targets in the first.
Two Yeah, I mean certainly last year and in the current year. We've had to put a huge amount of additional funding in for areas not just why Ala, that's not the majority of it, but we've also had to sign up to new partnerships with the Commonwealth on skills funding, on our schools funding, and we've also tried to take the opportunity to invest in additional health expenditure. But as I've said on your program before, we are tipping in an extraordinary amount of additional money into our health system. Yesterday our announcements took the total over our first over our first budgets and including this budget to nine billion dollars in total. And incidentally, I heard the bloke from the AMA on before saying health fills four goals down. Well, it must be a high scoring game if you've tipped in nine billion dollars into health, and that's how they're feeling about it. But that can't continue on into the future. And while we've got expenditure growth across our health system into the future, it's not going to continue on at the pace that it has been because the task that we've had in this first period has been trying to restore the capacity in our hospitals to stop the cuts that had been factored into doctors and nurses and ambulance officers by the previous government. I think we've done a lot of that restorative work that's continued a bit in yesterday's budget. But once we've restored that capacity, we're not going to have to keep dialing it up to the same extent for the next four or five years.
But isn't the problem we have, well, okay, we'll rephrase this isn't the problem that you have as a government and that we have as a community. When you hear all the lobby groups after seven o'clock. I mean, the chief criticism that people make, regardless of the field that they represent his are we'd like to see more money being spent there. And there's this sort of political status quo that is reinforced by a service hungry public, which is that spending more than ever before is regarded as a measure of success. So can I return to debt? It goes up four billion roughly every year for the next three years, that it's forty eight point five billion in three years time. Now I know we can say, well, Victoria, it's going to be one hundred ninety six billion at the same time, Well, proportionally, i'd say that puts say about the same given the population of the two respective states. Is debt ever going to come down in this state? Or do we just not care about it anymore.
No, we absolutely care about it.
And you know, I welcome the fact that there's attentional because we should be talking about the fact that we are taking a historically aggressive position, taking debt onto the state's balance sheet in order to build, in particular these two massive infrastructure projects. We don't certainly don't compare ourselves to Victoria or a SPI to be anything like them, but we are are we No, not at all proportionately. And you would have seen in the presentation I provided yesterday and in the budget papers that when you compare South Australia against other states like New South Wales or Queensland, and of course Western Australia is in outlier for other reasons, but when you compare ourselves to those other states, we still compare favorably on our balance sheet and debt metrics.
It doesn't understand and pause warning yesterday, which is pretty embarrassing, just within minutes of the budget they put out a statement like that. Doesn't that suggest that these people who are totally independent, they know how money works, they know how dangerous debt is. The basically said to you, watch out guys, because you're on you're potentially on the same trajectory as a failed statewide Victoria.
Well, I don't think they said we're on the same trajectory as Victoria, but they're absolutely right to issue that release, and it's the same release pretty much that they put out last year. You've got to make sure your budget doesn't get out of control or you've been lined for a downgrade. And so that's why we've made sure that we're that we're running surpluses and that our key debt affordability metric compares very favorably to the other states that have already been looked at by s and PS and been put on negative watch for their credit rating, whereas we have them.
Can can you define out of control for us? Because non financial public set to debt to revenue ratio is probably good way of looking at it. Net debt is fine, but we hope the economy grows and so forth, and revenues may well increase. But the budget says debt to revenue ninety nine point nine percent this year. You get to the out years of the budget, it gets to one hundred and thirty six point seven percent. It's growing every single year over that period.
So what's too much?
Is it one hundred and fifty percent? Is it two hundred percent? You said out of control? What number is out of control?
Yeah?
So I think the way we look at this is how can the budget afford to service the debt that we're taking on, not just in the current year, but sustainably into the future. So are we running surpluses? So even after we pay for all of the operating costs of hospitals and schools and police and roads and that sort of thing, and also paying for our debt service payments, our net interest costs, are we still running a surplus? And this budget shows that not only are we in this year, but we're projected to across the Ford estimates, and we've proven our bona fides by doing that each year since we've been in government. But then secondly, that metric that you that you talked about before, the net debt to revenue ratio, this year it is. It's ninety nine point nine percent according to the budget papers. This is also the same financial year it was the last year of the previous Liberal government's Rob Lucas's Ford estimates their our years. In their last budget, they projected the net debt to revenue ratio to be one hundred and twenty nine point six percent, So for the same year, debt is two billion dollars lower this year, and that key debt affordability metric that writing's agencies like Standard and Pause look at is a full thirty percentage points better. And what that shows is our revenue, the size of our budget has grown. It's given us a greater capacity to take on more debt, to service that debt and still run budgets.
Serpl So by the sounds of that, it sounds like and look, you know, we don't get polling, but we had by elections and on the strength of those, it sounds like you guys will be in power longer than the Ming dynasty one hundred and thirty six point seven percent, and your expectation is well that number will continue to go up in the next term of government.
Well it may well.
I mean, as I've said on this program previously, and you guys asked me about this last week, I think it was do we expect debt to continue to go up?
It will until we.
Finish the major construction period of the tunnels and the women's and Children's hospital. The Ford estimates that we've got in this budget is not quite there. We've probably got another financial year or a couple of financial years until we finish that. But then what you'll see is that level of capital expenditure or infrastructure spending each year that we showed yesterday. It's going to be seven billion dollars per year for the next three years, and then in the last year it starts coming down six billion dollars and that will continue to will down.
Look that because this is the thing, because like crystal ball sort of approach would be that in I don't know, ten years time, the big argument will be the mega suburbs stretching all the way between Aldinger and Yanker Lilla need a new Nlunger hospital. Things change and it feels like we're too far. The debt has put us too far behind to keep running these big ticket items unless we take what like the Bobcar Michael Leagan approach. Michael Eagan, you said, there go, I'm just going to pay for the debt, that's all I'm going to do, and just stand up the caucus. And he stood up to all the lobby group and said we're going to make New South Wales debt free, and he did a terrific job at that because he said, no.
Well, I was working in a government here in South Australia when in two thousand and seven and two thousand and eight we did exactly the same thing here in South Australia. We paid off general government sector debt. And I remember the calls from the media from a business essay at the time, screaming at the government to take on debt, to use the state's balance sheet to invest in social and productive infrastructure. And so that's what we're doing. You know, we're making sure that we're not racking up debt because the budget's recording massive deficits and we're borrowing money to service those deficits. We're borrowing money to build infrastructure that's going to benefit successive generations of South Australians.
And you know, I think that that's an.
Appropriate thing to do as long as that debt remains serviceable and affordable, and I think the budget it shows in the settings that we've got it is serviceable and affordable. If it becomes unserviceable and unaffordable, you'll start seeing that by the fact that we start running deficits or our interest costs get out of control. But I think we're in an environment at the moment where we've got the balance right. We can still have a surplus so we can respond to community needs when we need to unexpectedly, but we can also afford to meet the costs of taking on this debt to deliver a really productive infrastructure for the benefit of the future.
We always appreciate our chats. Treasure, thank you so much for coming in. And now I'm going to during the ad break, I want to find out how long the ming industry was in powerful a couple hundred years. Steve Mulligan, Treasure, thanks for joining us in this studio.
Thanks so much. Guys.
All right, let's chick traffic register for the Big Brunch because every byke counts. Go to the Big Brunch Drive dot Com.
David Pemberthy and Will Goodings six to nine five double a breakfast. It's time to flashback with Michael Smith.
Job at the time machine and head back in time with Michael Smith from seven US. Wonderful flashback segment you can catch on seven US Sunday nights from six o'clock. Michael, good morning to.
You, Good morning, Will and David. We're celebrating a birthday on flashback this week This Sunday is June the eighth, and on June the eighth. In nineteen eighty three, Adelaide Medicos made global headlines because the world's first IVF triplets were born at Flinders. Chennara Aaron and Jessica Gware based called to Tony and Elaine guare a couple from Morford Vale who've been trying for about eight years to have their second child. You're thinking Chennara, that's an unusual name, but actually made up the name for their firstborn triplet. Chenara is named in honor of doctor Christopher Chen, who's the fertility specialist who helped this happen for them. A lot of interest in the triplets at the time. You have to bear in mind South Australia's first IVF baby, Matthrew Wooden, had only been born six months earlier, also at Flinders. It was a difficult pregnancy for Elaine. She spent about two thirds of it in Flinders, a lot of the time in a wheelchair, although curiously doctor Chen did allow her an occasional via.
She was allowed to have a.
Smoke every so often, but I guess it was the eighties. Back then, you wouldn't dream of it. Today, I've caught up with Elaine to talk about what it was all like, and you'll also hear in this audio a little of the report from Russ Dicketts from back in nineteen eighty three.
I got the shock of my life when they said there's more than one there.
This morning's birth of test tube triplets at the Flinders Medical Center.
There's an important advance in in vitro fertilization worldwide.
It was a bit nerve racking because as soon as the babies were born, they were shipping me out towards the media and I didn't even have a chance to put makeup on her.
The hospital says that Mum is naturally a little tired after the event, and Dad, well, you think it off too.
Must have been incredibly overwhelming for them that the triplets were delivered prematurely. They ended up staying in Flinders about three weeks before they could go home. But here we are, all these years later. They're all happy and healthy, and they turned forty two on Sunday.
Have they remained out of the public eye the triplets.
Michael, very occasionally. I think the Tizer catches up with them for their eighteenth and their thirtieth and most sort of things.
Glas.
One of the biggest challenges, of course, when she got them home was what to do with nappies, and they thought they'd go down mccloth after the beginning, which she had twenty four pink nappies for the girls and twelve for Aaron, but soon realized she spent most of the time washing, so they switched to Kimby's.
Pretty quickly.
Good stuff.
Michael Michael's Ready seven US flashback catching on Sunday Night seven News from six o'clock. We're going to take a break breaking at eight, not too.
Far away, David Benberthy and Will Goodings six to line fine double a breakfast nine minutes up.
H's a right breaking at eight coming up in just a moment now. You might well be delighted for the garden and the farmers that the rain we're getting is going to be significant over the next few days. Twenty mills potentially today, up to twenty five Saturday, up to fifteen Sunday, and then five more on Monday, and then a smattering next week. That doesn't mean you don't want to escape it to go to a place like the whit Sunday Islands. Well, guess what we got the best of both worlds. It is raining and we've got some tickets for you. Flights and accommodation, all thanks to jets Day and get there in under three hours. Book now at jetstar dot com. We're looking for a location. When clue number three comes out of you, the first caller through correctly identifying it, you're on the shortlist, drawn of just six people that will draw next week to go along for that once in a lifetime holiday.
A lot of fun.
Okay, Clue number two, one of the Beatles had an influence here. This is intriguing. LIS's just given the double eyebrow raise. Happy with that glue. One of the Beatles had an influence here. Okay, that's six second clue. The first clue helped me a bit, the second clue less. So the third clue coming up and a chance to win is not too far away. All right, it stop for breaking it?
Well it has it a guess that I guess this morning may well be the happiest person in South Australia about the budget that was delivered yesterday because the key focus The only new stuff left really when we got into the lock up yesterday was the staggering increase in funding for frontline police. Police Commissioner Grant Stevens joins us now as part of our continuing analysis of yesterday's budget, the last one that the Malanauskus government will bring down before it goes to the polls next March. Commissioner, We've had a lot of chats and thanks for joining us over our regular catch ups here with the three of us in the studio, where you've been very candid about the pressure on police numbers. Is this exactly the budget you wanted?
Oh?
Thanks David. Look, let me say I am happy, and what I'm happy about is the fact that, firstly that the government has listened to the submissions I've been making to them in relation to the current state of policing and the future needs of the police. But I'm also happy for the men and women of South Australia Police knowing that they've got support coming their way in an era where I don't think we've ever been dealing with more demand or more complexity. So this commitment by the government through this budget, I think is a sign that things can only improve. Obviously, we have challenges in relation to making sure we recruit the number of people we've been funded for, but we're doing a lot of work behind the scenes to make sure that we attract people to policing and we get them through the academy and add onto the road.
We had the Wade Burns with the Police Association on this part of our PANELI scored the budget for police eight point five to nine out of ten, with the caveat that essentially allocating money to hire police is is great. Actually realizing that and hiring them is the challenge that needs to be fulfilled. How confident are you that we're going to find the police to fill these new positions that have been made available.
I have a high level of confidence. We are investing in marketing policing as a career. We are reshaping the way we select people. We are currently doing some work to rearrange or reshape our recruit training program to make it as streamlined as possible. We are committed to international recruiting, which is delivering quality experience police officers to South Australia and I would rather have the challenge of meeting funded positions and filling them than having to continue arguing with government about the need to increase the size of the service. So this is a challenge. I'm happy to accept them.
I think it's the right way to go the Commission. And when we talk about urban sprawl, we often talk about the lack of infrastructure, and people think of infrastructure in a material sense, in a bricks and mortar type sense, train stations, train tracks, hospitals and so forth. Have police been the forgotten part of that equation because you know, thinking about an area like call Dinger that only twenty years ago had one service station and you know lots of old weather boardy shacks, the growth there, the growth in Yankalilla, the growth in Roseworthy, all over the north and south of the city, and also heading towards even Callington now on the way to murray Bridge, you know new land releases there. We haven't really kept up, have we.
Well, David, I don't think the government has had the luxury of forgetting about the future policing needs in terms of facilities, patrol bases, because that's part of our agenda. We've been briefing them on what our forecasts are in relation to the needs going into the next ten to fifteen years. As you say with ordger Our police operate out of a shopfront in Rdinger, which was fine twenty years ago. So that's on our continuing list of items that we will be discussing with government. I've made a commitment to spend one point six million dollars on the Two Wells police station because that needs to grow today and that work is underway. But the government have also indicated that there is a there's a provision being made for a new policing facility out somewhere around that Two Wells precinct because of the significant growth out there. So it's on our agenda, and if it's on my agenda, that means the government's being briefed on it and there'll be no surprises for them.
Commissioner Grant Stevens, thanks for joining us. We'll catch up again, so thanks guys. We also have the Opposition leader Vincentazi to share his thoughts about yesterday's budget. Leader, good morning and thanks for joining us. What did you make of it?
Good morning, David, good morning. Well, well, obviously it's the final budget before next year's election, has been pointed out, but we are really concerned with this man. What would be forty eight point five billion dollars state debt to shape Australians, which is the biggest in our history. And we think there's still a massive opportunity to provide proper cost of living relief. I think in terms of the school transport, the metro card, we certainly support that measure. We're not going to oppose everything. But still no real solution to things like you know, feeling the housing shortage, that affordability crisis which has been well publicized. Still no plan to lower power bills which everybody is hurting from at the moment, ramping obviously we've seen the thirty five worst months of ramping in our history. And no acknowledgment of the problem of the record debt, no plan to repay that. And I was listening to the treasurer this morning. I think that's very concerning as well, because we are economically vulnerable because of the state of this debt. It doesn't matter which way you cut it or dice it. I mean we are going to be vulnerable for a long period of time and for economic shops it's incumbent upon a government, so not only be able to absorb these shocks when they come but also to have some fat there to make sure that they can also take advantage of opportunities when they come about as well.
Would you make it a priority under a Tazi liberal government to start trying to pay back pay down some of that debt.
I think at the moment there's just no acknowledgment of the problem. So we would absolutely acknowledge that problem with already called for a debt management plan, and yes, we need to make sure that there is fiscal responsibility and just to clear priorities, but also make sure that you know, agencies stick to their budgets. I mean again, we saw the health budget blow out at some seven hundred million I think it was. The year before it was nine hundred million. Overall, this year we saw agencies blow out by I think over one point six a billion, to your point, which you raise very well this morning. We know that there's hundreds of millions extra in things like stamp duty and GST, and unfortunately, I think that a lot of that has been squandered on things like the hydrogen gamble.
Let's face it, they got the.
Guvernment credit card out, they put it on the hydrogen roulette. Will no blowing what is it one hundred million dollars, maybe even more. And so look, these things add up. So we understand that there is some good in the budget. As I said, we will back in the cost of living, release the students in terms of the metro card, but I think it could have gone a lot further in terms of cost of living relief.
Across the board.
Vincentazi, a leader of the opposition, Thanks for joining us this morning. All right, we're going to check traffic and take a quick break. We've back with more in just a moment. Register for the Big Brunch because every byte counts. Go to the Big Brunch drive dot com.
David Pemberthy and Will Goodings six to nine five double a breakfast.
Twenty two minutes after great lots of budget talk of course this morning, and a lot of that has been framed around drought relief. Some drout relief came to people in the northern part of the state. Just recently. A giant convoy of twenty seven trucks arrived lad with hundreds of tons of donated Hey, they came from New South Wales. Are leaving on Wednesday, and yesterday afternoon rolled into Jamestown fifteen hundred bales just to be with a view that they would be distributed to some two hundred farmers in desperate need for feed for their livestock. One of those is Justine Reynolds, who's located in fact in Washpool that twenty k's out of a Jamestown and the owner of Woodley Hills.
Justine. Good morning to you, Good morning, How are you were good? Thank you? Justine. This must have come as quite a relief given what you guys have been going through.
Yeah, absolutely, yeah, definitely, I think probably more lifting the community spirit as well definitely plays a part.
How tough has it been? What's life been like for the past few months in a place like being in and around Jamestown.
Yeah, well, it's just sad. It's so sad to see the land so thirsty and dry, and the stock, you know, having to manage that. A lot of the businesses in town are struggling as arming is. You know, that's what our community is all about. And when we struggle, I guess it trickles down the line and everyone in the whole community struggle. And yeah, it's pretty depressing.
How long have you been on the land and can you remember a time as challenging as this in the past.
I was married into the Hammett family and my father in law, who seventy eight, has never seen this before in his lifetime.
Wow.
Yeah, so's Yeah, it's a new one for all of us.
Just down south, we're getting a bit of rain over the course the next few days. What's it looking like around Jamestown.
Well, just as you said about, I just started raining a little bit, so that's hopeful. We're very hopeful.
Yeah, I'm just going to type Jamestown into my weather wrap. I'm sure you've been doing that. But hopefully the next few days you get some Yeah.
Well predicted that we will. So all you can do is.
Hope Tomorrow six to twenty mils Sunday seven to twenty five. So let's all do a rain dance together, Justine fingers.
Hopefully that's the break in the season that everyone's desperately in need of. Justine, thank you. Justin Reynolds, the owner of Woodley Hills and one of the recipients of those donated bales of hay. That, as she said, is as much about lifting the spirits of people as it is providing feed and helping them get through a desperate and unprecented in the lives of so many people who have working on the land situation that they currently find themselves in.
The brave people, I reckon people live on the land totally at the mercy of the element. Like it's just it's hard to wrap your head around it. Like you know, the jobs that we do. You know, you work for a big media company, and there's no there's no sort of peaks and troughs, like there's a reliability about the nature of work and the nature of public service jobs, a job like teaching, you know, a job like nursing. Those jobs out the challenges, but.
They're always they're always there. Could you imagine introducing that element of risk to it, and this would troop of a small business and coffee shop owner. Imagine it's it's you're doing your business, be it radio or selling newspapers, except there's a chance that every couple of years you won't sell any newspapers. There's be zero, you won't sell a single coffee. I mean that just your risk matrix approaching how you're it totally changes your mindset.
Yeah, it's amazing, isn't it like that? Zero? Because sometimes I thought you know, wouldn't it be fun running like a Mexican cafe and maybe do like five days a week. But then you look at the realities of it. The people do that and you can't work five days a week. You got to work six and a half days a week.
Yeah, people, And.
Also if it doesn't work, you lose everything you own, Like what yea? When you think about it's nextally incredible that people go into small business. They I agree, they're amazing.
I wouldn't have the stomach coiners, the I wouldn't have the Hey, we got a question before we're One of our listeners wants me to ask you if you if someone would go on the head and said you either get a Crow's win or a Paces.
Win today, which one are you taking?
Come on, well one of them's that's like, let's if we reverse it. That's like saying, who would you rather win? The Crows and the Grand Final or the Paces on December twelve playing Boston, Like, seriously, it's NBA Finals today, it's the Grand Final. That's not even a question. Absolutely, really, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. The Crows will be fine, I reckon, irrespective of what happens tonight. Yeah, yeah, I hope you know. I'm more than willing to be greedy. I think both would be excellent. Hey, Chris Jarmes in a little bit later today three pm with Lee Forrest four Footy Friday thanks to Smegh and POWs. If you're building a renovating, your first choice should be visiting the Smeg showroom at Debney Distributors. Taste the difference with Smeg and you should see what he's doing. It's a thing called Four's hammer. Oh wow, and it is. It's a whole beef shin. It's an OsO bouquet that's basically been frenched, so you've got the entire leg the bone rather with all the meat on it. And I'm not sure how is he going to cook it? I reckon if you did it Osso Bucoster, you do it in like a tomatoe stock with vegetables and peas weather milanaise.
That sounds lodful. He might be doing it low and slow in his smoker.
We mentioned Smeg. We have a Smeg toaster to give away after eight thirty as one of the excellent prizes in Feedback Friday. If you want to get on board for feedback Friday. Eight double two three double O double OW. Now is the time to call. We've got three spots available. Everybody wins a prize four very easy fun questions. Looking forward to chatting with your next for feedback Friday, get calling eight double two three double O double.
David Pemberthy and Will Goodings six to nine five double A breakfast.
Twenty two minutes tonight. Let's have a look at the fuel situation before we get to feedback Friday. On this Friday morning fail thanks to the excellent RA Road Service, it's better to be a member with RAA Road Service. Let's have a look at the unleaded, because that's been a story dollar forty eight point five, still really cheap mobile Torrensville Henley Beach Road.
Otherwise, in the.
Low dollar fifties, you can still get it the United wind Vale Sunnybrook Drive dollar fifty two point five, the Shell OTR Marion South dollar fifty two point nine and the OTR SAFORED Commercial Road dollar fifty two point nine diesel. Wise, you can still get it under a dollar sixty at the OTR Shell Mansfield Park on Grand Junction Road only a tick dollar fifty nine point nine under a dollar sixty there and the mobile on Hampstead Hampstead Gardens on Northeast Road dollar sixty two point five.
Are we got another?
I think we've still got a spot available for feedback Friday. One spot only one? Oh, I think we might that might be a late opportunity for someone to swoop in course and win a prize. We've got this Smeg toaster of course to give away, and two a Wallace Cinema family passes for the others. So three terrific prizes. You call in right now, you win a prize. Put it that way eight double two three double o double a feed back Friday, right.
He loves to talk about it.
This week, big week in news Man's silliness and strange goings on.
Let's start in the feedback process with Kirsty and Prospect. Kirsty, good morning.
To you, Good morning. How are you guys?
We're good, Thanks, Kirsty, how are you going?
Yeah?
No way, that's good.
Good to see some rain finally.
Yeah.
Absolutely, it is excellent, isn't it, Kirsty. The Big Freeze Slide is taking place from eleventh time at the MCG on Monday, with all the celebrities taking the plunge. Have you ever taken an ice bath?
Kirsty?
No, I haven't. I hate being cold. Once my feet get cold, that's it.
Yeah, I'm with you.
I'm gone fair enough, fair enough if you don't need an ice bath at the moment in Sunday, I think you just walk out side you can get the same effect.
Now, don't work here, Glenn el gone Somenday, so that nice perfect beach.
We ever exactly if you're a fish, Kirsty David attend the state budget lock up yesterday. If you had to guess, do you think at any stage during proceedings David had a bit of shut eye or did he power through?
Well?
You'd have to, wouldn't you. In the government talking about numbers, You'd have to have a bit of sleep, wouldn't you.
It's a bit hard early on three three hours straight from here, four hours coming straight from here at eleven till three into a budget lockup is a real challenge. I reckon yeah now.
Lucy finally completed her task of watching pulp fiction as part of a movie review this week. She gave it one out of five. Kirsty David and I gave it five out of five. Are you close to Lucy's score or David and I?
I think Lucy scores Sorry guys, but Lucy.
Yeah, we started to get really a gender based theory on pulp fiction.
I think, yeah, I think it's got the girls on that one.
Yeah, it feels that way.
Few love Pearl Harbor though, the movie Pearl Harper.
I've seen that one. Yeah, that was that's a fairly recent They recently did that, did they, Kirsty?
They did?
Yeah, all right, this was a fun idea, something to daydream about. A Tasmanian man won the entire seventy million dollar Loto prize on Tuesday night. If you had seventy million your account, what's the first thing you'd buy yourself?
I'd probably be a bit boring and pay off the mortgage first.
Yeah, that'd be a good feeling. Put it this way.
What's the second thing you'd buy yourself?
Second thing i'd buy him, Probably a nice holiday. I'd tell the family and go on a nice holiday.
Yeah, you'd have a bit left over to good on your kursty.
Thank you.
Let's go to find and Mark. Good morning, Good morning, guys, Hey Mark, I want to cast you on the role of premiere of Tasmania. If you're the premier, would you be four or against building a new stadium with a roof in Hobart.
For the devils.
Stay cold, No roof.
No roof, Yeah, hard, no stadium, A fiscal conservative Mark down there and Tazzy is the premiere. The Cabaret Festival kicked off in Adelaide last night. Do you have any interest whatsoever in attending the cabaret festival?
Mark told, And I'm going to Wallaroo this weekend.
F Wallaroo has got all the culture you need exactly right. Pubs now, not pubs and beers, but mugs and coffees. Medical research is telling us now that drinking three cups of coffee a day can be beneficial for aging. How many cups of coffee would you do a day.
Mark, Two.
Just in the morning, Mark, or do you have one in the afternoon to give yourself a pick up?
One in the morning and maybe one at night time because I'm going to get up early in the mornings. I can't sleep.
Yeah, hey, Mark, it's become very obvious, certainly overnight, that Elon Musk has done a one eight on Donald Trump.
I think they've done a one eighty on each other. Have you ever changed your mind about a politician, sports personal, someone in entertainment?
Uh, I'm a sports buffs in football, cricket.
Anyone anyone come to mind?
Mark uh plumy cricketers there.
It's technically a one eighty, but we'll take it.
Thank you, Mark, Roger, good morning.
Yeah, good boys, Braining and Salisbury at the moment.
Roger, Yes, it's a.
Bit damn bit brock, a bit blowie, but you get.
That all right? Excellent?
Do you think the King's Birthday is still a relevant public holiday or shall we celebrate something else on Monday?
Ah, it's the last of.
The tactile for quanting passed away, so he something different?
Video Winster foot to night between the Crows and the lines.
I'm open the crows, So go to the crows.
We've got over forty mills forecast over the next four days. In fact, it's I think it's over fifty now is it is? Sprinklers in the garden season officially over.
I don't think we'll ever be over, mate.
We just need more rain.
Yeah, I think you're right. We could always do with more. And we're Jimmy Barns on yesterday a terrific chat. He's planned the entertainment center tomorrow night. Sixty nine years of old and of a Jenny said, he's not retiring for years. He plans to keep rocking out for years to come. What have you retired, Roger? So what age did you retire or at what age are you're planning to retire?
Early forties mate, I've got a few years to go yet.
Well, the way our age bracket, Roger, I think the retirement age is going to be seventy two for us by the time by the time we all finish working, because they keep jacking it up now.
To be close to eighty or five years of retirement and then you die.
That's right.
Well, that's a cheery picture on this Friday morning, Roger.
You know something to really put it a bit of a spring in your step.
Good news is a public it's a long weekend.
Mark in fin I wonder if Mark popped into the Christian Supply store on Findon Road yesterday. He sounded like you took advantage of the by nine rosary beads.

What about this for a text? I'm worried that it's actually serious. Isn't saying you hate Pommy crickets literally racist hate speech?
But you laughed? Is that a snowflake that texted him?
That person? They should they should take us to the Human Rights Commission and we can subpoena. Are all sorts of people what Piers Morgan for example, Yes, he seems to be in on the joke. Yes, the see that text the world, That's what those friends were seeing. People, they they say their proponents of free speech and hate wokeness, but yet they then up become.
The workers police going around. I always find those ones weir What about the story.
Sam Maid and Adelaide journalists, who's now the chief political reporter for news dot com. She wrote this amazing piece yesterday. She got invited to this student journalism conference in Sydney and said, yeah, I'll do that because she used to edit on the student paper at Adelaide Guinie. So she agreed three months ago. The organizers of the conference sent her a message two days ago saying, I actually it's come to our attention that and on the basis of nothing, because Samba hasn't actually written anything about this. I think it's on account of the media organization that she actually works for. But they've said we're uncomfortable. We're reaching out to tell you that we're uncomfortable about some of your views on the apartheid state, the Israeli apartheid state in Gaza. So because we're trying to create a safe space where everyone is in agreement about these things, you can't come. Why hold a conference where you pull together a group of people who agree about absolutely.
Everything, don't want to be challenged. It's hard to hear wrong sometimes.
Yeah, it's amazing. The great thing is that David Maher, who was a mad lefty and a great guy, David Marh when he hosted Media Watch, he was excellent that new play. They got one half with he is, but the David Maer Period Golden Ear, Golden Earer for Media Watch, Fairfax Lifer, He's meant to be speaking at it as well, so he found out that Sam's not invited, so he sent them a letter going, I've heard that, in a major affront to free speech, you have deplatformed Samantha Maiden from your student journalism conference. I am now deplatforming myself. I am not going to come done. Of all the places on earth, a student newspaper at a university should be the absolute sort of fulcrum of the free exchange of ideas and new snowflakes have come down and said we're only inviting people who we agree with, So I'm not coming good on him.

Do you hello? Hey going Linda?
Did you hear all the clues or just the third one?
I do hear them all?
Yeah? Oh okay there feeling confident Linda, Yeah, I think so. Have you been up to that neck of the woods before?
Oh, I've been on one of the little golf golf.
Carts up there?
Yes?
Oh?
Nice, good fun.
Well, yeah, I think you maybe I'll be talking about the right island then at Linda, which.
Island is it?
Well?
I reckon it might be Hamilton Island.
Correct, excellent, right, I'm wonder.
There are no cars at this place. Hence Linda driving around in a golf cart. One of the Beatles had an influence here and it's the largest inhabited island of the seventy four whit Sunday Island. So Linda joins the short list to be drawn out next week.
If you're on a golf cart, you're always having fun, aren't you, And you have to drive around on a golf cart on the island. There's no scenario whereby being on a golf cart is a bad time. Absolutely.
George Harrison had a house there.
That's right, That's right. He had an island in Fiji as well. I think it must have been fun being George Harrison. He started handmade Films which made Life of Brian. That was his movie production company. He's incredibly creative.
Blake, should we give away an Olga's Meet Trey with the best chiavaptchi's going around they've started, They've been around since nineteen seventy eight.
One on multiple awards. We love Olga's Fine foods. We had a lot of great entries. Obviously with the lure of the Olga's Chevapstucci and all of their other tasty treats proving irresistible. We are going to give it to and In two wells for his nomination of Wayne Carey and the North Melbourne football.
Is pretty spectacular. We talk about breakups. The Elin mus Donald Trump one just continue to develop. At the moment, the back and forth on Twitter and the share price of Tesla went down fourteen percent in trading as they were exchanging barbs over truth social and Twitter. It's interesting both of them own social media yeah sites, and it's.
Amazing because it's like this clash of the Titan. They're both very very similar people, so headstrong, so dogmatic, and he's sort of wonder Like a lot of people say Musk's are conservative, he's a right winger. I sort of think Musk's actually like a no winger. He's more like a sort of a narco libertarian who basically believes that government doesn't exist. But he's also so ego driven and now I think probably driven by vengeance. You can imagine a scenario where Musk either finds or seeks out or creates a centrist, low spending, gun owning Southern Democrat and says only everyth I can get you elected.
He's got a pole running on his Twitter page at the moment asking what Americans should he start or should someone guess it's him in the context of the question, start a new party that appeals to the what he describes as the eighty percent of Americans who are sick of the two major parties.
Over there, he's got Ross Perrot on steroids, exactly right. With more money, well he might well more money now he's well for now. Yeah, let's see how the share price finishes this later today. Hey, yeah, the last thing we've got to do today.
