"Show, we are looking back over the past 12 months since Russia's invasion of Ukraine for more on the topic we are joined by Robert papp, a retired senior executive from the CIA. When the invasion first happened, there were a lot of people who were pretty impressed by the Biden administration's ability to sort of trail a wide degree of global support against Russia and then affect that in the sanction. As the ambivalence of these countries to condemn Russia, in crucial and how helpful has that been in still maintaining markets for imports and exports to prevent the sort of complete domestic collapse of the Russian economy. Yeah, this is the thing I think about a great deal and I look immediately at the BRICS nations obviously have Russia is one of them. There's all Russia India, China, South Africa. In fact, as we speak, the Russians have been doing naval exercises with South Africa. And if we extend into Africa even further, the Russians just, it's almost complete, having agreement now with Sudan to make a naval base on the Red Sea. And Wagner group is now in Bali where the French have left. So if we expand our scope from the bricks to this great global south, including especially Africa, the Middle East, parts of Asia, which I think are more concerned with the China issue right now. But even South America like Brazil and Mexico and states are obviously like Nicaragua and Bolivia and others that have a propensity and Cuba that are propensity towards Russia, we're seeing a very mixed bag. And I find this alarming, I find it disturbing, again, going back to the thesis that we regardless of what the causes were. The fault were for this war, and obviously a great deal of this is on the Russians, but certainly not all of it. What has happened in the global south is they look at this through a different prism than the United States, Canada, Europe. They are looking at this from a, I think, a prism of history in which they look kind of a stance at some of the activities of what they might have called it back in the day and imperialist nation, a colonial nation, something like that. And it never fails to alarm me when I see, even on YouTube, but certainly in telegram, certainly on social media, and even in mainstream news in places like once you mentioned Joe, India, China, Brazil, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, the Emirates, Mexico, and throughout sub Saharan Africa. You see a narrative that in some cases is very forgiving of the Russian conduct of the war. But in other cases, actually gloating over each victory that the Russians have, gloating over each deployment of a new Russian weapon, gloating over this ability of the Russians to counteract NATO as a body. So I think we've been enormously effective in terms of the developed west, and I think less so in terms of the global south. And that leads to the second part of your question about the economic impact and I think this really has confounded everyone and we can go in at some point if you wanted to sanctions and asset freezes and all, but we have accelerated a trend where Russia really wanted to do an Asia pivot or what I would even call a global south pivot. A pivot away from Europe. And they've been remarkably successful at it. The data is all bad. We can't trust any of the data, I think, on natural gas and oil exports, commodities, diamonds, anything like that. Lithium, for example, a gold silver. But it is quite clear that the natural gases flowing into China through power of Siberia and eventually the power of Siberia two pipeline, tankers around the world, some legally, some illegally, are moving Russian crew because there's just too much money to be made on it at the prices it's being sold and resold at. And I think even in Europe you're seeing in the United States, you're seeing some kind of deceptive things in terms of oil products at all and as to how they're moved around and what counts as Russian oil, what doesn't count as oil that's gone through various levels of refining or processing. So I think this is exacerbated an economic current that the Russians kind of wanted to do anyhow at some point. I also fear that some of the nations in this sort of the bricks environment, including countries that are lining up now to join bricks like Saudi Arabia, like Algeria, perhaps like Argentina and Brazil, Argentina at some point. You're seeing them look for alternatives to a U.S. dominated world economy to a dollar dominant denominated economy to an economy where the swift system and international banking which is dominated by American banks is really the only way of getting to settlements where maritime insurance for tankers and containers are controlled by United States interests. And I find this disturbing because I think we need to promote our model, the liberal capitalism, of global markets, free markets, and I think the war might be having a somewhat perverse effect on that. You know, you mentioned oil and gas still flowing and emanating from Russia. Can you talk to us a little bit more about the role of those commodities in this conflict? I think right now Russia is still and has been for a long time. You know, largely reliant on its hydrocarbon exports and also it's raw materials and mineral exports and such obviously they export a variety of things. But I think they rely very heavily on this. I think when the Europeans and Dennis quite brilliantly, I watched how quickly the Germans put an LNG terminal in, for example, in the Baltic and record time they both the terminal to bring in imports from the U.S.. Look, I think when the Russians started to lose a great deal of this, especially the natural gas side into Europe. I think this hurt them. I think it hurt them considerably. I think they had considered this as a possibility. The whole Nord stream Nord stream two is a whole other can of worms that could be talked about. But I think they had already started to set up alternatives in terms of the numerous pipelines that go into Europe go into the Middle East. They're talking about going across Iran now, for example, and go into China. So I think they were able to recover a lot of that. And that is the fuel that keeps their military industry going. That is the fuel that keeps them able to fuel literally fuel that keeps them able to

I think we're already beyond talking about recession and everyone's talking about recovery before recession has actually happened. And something Kaley mentioned, it's all about inflation. Yes, it's about inflation, but for me it's all about the labor market because the labor market remains so strong and 5, 6% increases in salaries are not commensurate with a 2% inflation target. So my view in you and I have talked about this previously, Caylee is that the fed knows in my view that it has to get unemployment higher. And that horrible to say, but by the way, we're going to talk with cloudy Assam a little bit later. She of the Somme rule. The sum rule is and she thinks that's a mistake to think to argue that the Phillips curve is still alive and well and you've got to push up unemployment in order to pull down inflation. But I'd like to hear her view on where the nehru is right now. I think it's around 4.9%. We're at 3.7. So for the natural level of unemployment, if it is in fact 4.9%, anything below that is in fact inflationary. So what's her view on wage price spiral? If we look at and I'm writing these, I'm writing this question down. Look at history. And unemployment move of that amount has never not coincided with an economy already in recession. So I think that's important to note. The yield curve is pricing and recession we know that, but there could be a normalization next year.

And the top story we're following former president Trump will not have his tax records turned over to the House ways and means committee, at least for the time being. Chief justice John Roberts on the U.S. Supreme Court has granted an emergency stay in mister Trump's request to stop the IRS from handing over those documents. Under a unanimous ruling by the D.C. circuit appeals court, the IRS would have turned over the Trump tax returns to the ways and means committee on Thursday. But by stepping in now, chief justice John Roberts orders the committee to explain by next Thursday why it needs the records. In 2020, Roberts wrote an opinion in a similar case, calling for judges to take a balanced approach to subpoenas for the business records of a sitting president. Trump may still lose this case in the end, but the temporary stay extends the matter past the midterms. At CBS White House correspondent Stephen portnoy.

Nancy Pelosi was in Washington at the time of the incident. This house and the speaker herself were specifically targets of the defendant. Police say the 42 year old California man used a hammer to break into the home. The defendant brought to the location of the Pelosi residents, a second hammer, as well as zip ties, rope, and a roll of tape. The district attorney in San Francisco says Paul Pelosi was forced out of his bed, tried to get to a phone in his home elevator, but the suspect blocked him. He was able to call 9-1-1 from his cell phone when he asked to use the bathroom. He suffered a skull fracture in that hammer attack.

question we're trying to This is the drive to the club On Bloomberg radio Got to say I love that day is incredible coverage Simulcast on TV radio from our Bloomberg surveillance team And right now as you just heard from Charlie equities just coming off their highs of the session following that fed decision And as we look at the yoke we have seen a flattening but what's interesting is we're seeing yields bop down after hitting some higher levels earlier So let's get to it Let's get to the drive to the close Nadia lavelle is a senior equity strategist at UBS global wealth management She joins us on the phone from New York City Natty level how are you doing First of all and second of all give us your immediate reaction to what we heard from fed chair Powell and the FOMC I'm doing well And so is the market you know I think why is the market so excited about this Especially the equity markets Exactly The fed delivered more or less what was already priced in and acceleration in its assets paper and for over on as well as the messaging around inflation That's the price conscious of the high inflation and will do what it can to keep that in mind In other words they get it They get it They get it They get it that inflation has accelerated It's lost and longer than anyone had initially thought But they will spread that need a very carefully to manage inflation but at the same time that stifle economic growth I mean is it safe to say we have seen this Jay Powell He gets it He's got the playbook We've got his playbook It's not the mistakes made what was it in 2018 right And we saw tantrum of the markets He understands I think to some extent spoon feeding the markets getting markets ready I do wonder about that congressional testimony getting rid of that word transitory That was a great thing to get out of the conversation the narrative ahead of this fed meeting I could agree more And we'd heard from various governors over the last couple of weeks So the market was kind of prepared for what was going to happen today And I think that that's why you're seeing a rally in the market to know that the fed gets it and is on top of it So one thing I think is a really smart question and some of our guests that we've had on Bloomberg and radio and Bloomberg TV as we did the fed coverage today is any chance that the fed though is not focusing close enough on that yield curve And there have been individuals Scott Guggenheim and Scott of minor I should say of Guggenheim On Bloomberg TV and radio earlier talking about the potential for a recession Not next year but the year after we've had guests where that's a concern that you see that flattening concerns about an inverted yield curve Is that on your radar at all Is that something that needs to be part of the conversation That remains in our radar Of course we always seem very close attention to the yield curve because when the yield curve historically has inverted that does signal a recession is on the horizon But we do expect that the yield curve will start to receive Particularly as the fed starts to look to raise rates next year We think that the ten year will start to move back up closer to 2% And that will allow for some steepening of the curve Any surprises from the FOMC today No no no real surprises again in live with our expectation I think that we will look forward a little bit more color about what exactly maximum employment looks looks like I think that the fed of course is again trying to be balanced in the comments around that But we believe that we will get to maximum employment by the time we get to the second half of the next year And we also believe that inflation will start to normalize when we get in the back half of the next year particularly as supply chain imbalances sort of all results themselves Hey Nadia technology often running If I look at the 11 major industry groups in the S&P 500 information technology by a mile at the top of that list of 2.4% we saw a pop when it comes to the tech trade The NASDAQ right now is up almost 2% certainly outperforming both the S&P and the Dow at this point You at UBS global wealth you are there to help develop the overall equity views determine sector size and style preferences Would you be advising your clients to get into some of those big tech names get into information technology even if we're going to start to get higher rates which have normally been a reason to maybe pause when it comes to some of those names So we have mutual on text for exactly some of those reasons that you pointed out in terms of occupation for higher yields next year and our expectation for effective start to increase short term rate and that will record it Some headwinds from evaluation standpoint I think some of the you're seeing in tech today Remember tech has been week for past two days on concerns around the fact as well as well as in terms of just overall concerns in the market and where valuations are for tech companies But we do think that some of what you're seeing today is also probably too respond to potential slowdown in economic growth near term around the new variants What do you mean by that How are you seeing how are you seeing that play out in the trade Yes As we know all year we have seen this rotation happening and when people get concerns around the delta on it does a very tech rally Some concerns in the marketplace also have been pectoralis today So it's a combination of could you repeat that Could you repeat that Nadia We got a little bit of a text snafu Could you just repeat what you just said Absolutely What I was saying is that I think some of what you're seeing is a tech has become also a safe haven when people become concerned around an economic slowdown And there's some concern in the market around the only clan variant Interesting Perhaps that explains a little bit of Apple search This afternoon Exactly People are high in the marketing somewhat hiding in some of these techniques as well It's amazing Apple becoming a safe haven Carol Well you know it's funny How do we look at these companies that have become so entrenched in our life We all joke about not going anywhere without our phone It's just pretty remarkable So is it a staple Is it a high-tech device Is it a piece of technology Is it telecommunications I mean this is something you know to quote Kathy wood and some others but she in particular about these companies that are cross sections of kind of our traditional sectors And so as an analyst as a market watcher you have to think of them in very many different ways Same thing we're seeing in the auto sector is that technology is an automobile What are these things Having said that Nadia what are your best case for the equity markets come 2022 Are you guys comfortable putting out a projection there Yes we actually borrowed it on the markets into 2022 We have a price target of 5000 by the time we get to June of 22 and 50 100 by the end of next year And on all of that is being really driven by earnings growth we're looking for low to maintained earnings growth for next year We are looking for a little bit of valuation multiple contraction about one to two terms from the current level where about 21 and a half times And do you still anticipate the fed will start hiking rates in September of 2022 or did anything you hear today change that We do all official head of the fed was back You know of course we are data dependent just like facades I've heard that before Data dependent Yes Yes So of course as just like the fed we will calibrate as necessary but our official helps you is one hike next year And then into 2023 we were looking for a quarterly cadence in terms of rate night Where don't you want to be in this marketplace Today and the reason why I bought a tech in terms of being a safe haven because you also seen a rally in utilities and consumer Staples And we know that those are defensive sectors within the market And so those are the areas that we continue to avoid We just think it's too early to pivot to a more defensive tilt We think that growth remains healthy and will still be the case in 22 All right we're going to run Hey listen thank you so.

Coronavirus: Australia sends 1,000 army personnel to Victoria to fight outbreak
"We Begin Today's program in Australia which is preparing to deploy its army to help deal with the surging corona virus cases in the state of Victoria public health workers are knocking on the doors of thousands of homes, offering free tests. One regional health minister has warned his residents don't go to Melbourne well, let's get the very latest now with Karen Middleton. WHO's a Saturday? Papers chief political correspondent in Cambria Carrot, welcome back to monocle twenty four. Could you just bring up to date, please? Yes. Indeed, we've been down. Congratulating ourselves a bit here in Australia that we've been doing well with reducing the infection rod across the country, and all of a sudden in the state of Victoria capital of which is Melbourne as you mentioned. They have seen a reversal of that for the past nine days. They've had double digit infection rates now of course, compared to the rest of the world, and particularly some hot spots around the world. That's very very small, but we all know that the virus stopped small and spreads fast and so double digit infection rights can quickly guard glory to more than that, and in fact yesterday they. announced they had seventeen new infections and today is struggling time that that number is thirty three new infections, so you can see these exponentially growing again, and that's going in the wrong direction as far as the government is concerned, so there's now an all out effort to try and taste the people in the hot spots around Melbourne. which is in the northwest of the city, and in the southeast of the city to try and find out how this is spreading, and to stop it as quickly as possible. You said they sort of all out attempt. It seems to be very rapid and very thorough people knocking on doors and the army being boughten. Yes, that's right I. mean the testing regime is more intense than it was at the beginning of the pandemic, because here in Australia, just like everywhere else the capacity petition as much more now than it was early on when the whole country with on higher alert, so these inability should test more people now that it will include people who aren't showing any symptoms any respiratory symptoms. Symptoms that might indicate covid nineteen, so they really trying to get as many people tested in those hotspot areas as possible. They're recommending that people don't move around the city and Dart Melbourne. If I particularly come from those areas people in other parts of the country, being urged not to go to heaven, so we we do have a slot pariah situation for one stage, but. The attempt is to try, and really could title that infection and as you say. The army is being holding interestingly tonight. The request for the army that came from the state government has been scaled down somewhat. It's evening here in Australia and earlier today, the premier of Victoria had for about a thousand troops to come to help with. Tasting and transport and other areas like monitoring hotel biased quarantaine. He's now scowled down that request to any about one hundred and fifty from one thousand, so to be unclear, exactly how many will do, and whether there will be involved in the knocking on doors, and the army has been doing that in other parts of Australia. Pandemic and date was called out to help with the bushfire crisis earlier in the year two, so the first time, the army's beat out, but it does indicate that these some urgent situation. How much faith is that in the authorities to do the right thing and act promptly, because it's always a question of trust, isn't it between the Guardians of the station, those who live in it. Yes I think there's a considerable degree of confidence here. Because a strategy has will seem fiction, writes the rest of the country with the exception of Sydney which still has. Reasonable numbers of infections compared to the rest of the country and the rest of have have next to no new infections right across Australia and I think that's a combination of the swift actions of the government, and also the response of the people who were willing to keep themselves in tain and Steinheim and wash their hands and do all the things that were asked to do and that has. Managed to keep the infection rate in check so I think people do trust the government. Unfortunately, though in some parts of the country, and clearly in these parts of Melbourne Win, the restrictions were eased a little bit. There were some people who didn't observe social distancing requirements anymore. The government in Victoria saying it was largely attributable to be family groups that were meeting and catching up. At the time the restrictions were lifted in PAPP's not staying as far as they were required to so. The now, GONNA enough. Ice With this new infection at the hubbing doesn't turn into a full blind second wife.

Rather than travel by plane choice reflected a growing recognition that air travel carries a heavy cost to the environment you need a convoy are transferred. Correspondent has been looking looking at this problem and the aviation industries response to it and she's here with me now to discuss this along with our environment correspondent lesley hook you nina you spoke to anna hughes an environmentalist who pitta misers this new growing hostility towards flying. What did she tell you well. Anna hughes has founded a flight-free twenty twenty campaign in the u._k. Off the back of other campaigns exist in other countries and she's encouraging people to commit to not flying in twenty twenty aim is to get one hundred thousand people to sign up to the pledge so far she's got three thousand and she's found that when she speaks to people <music> the quite often aware of the effect flying has on the environment she is concerned because it's not obvious how the aviation industry can realistically decarbonised when is in the long term and a hughes is tapping into the trend of flight shame driven by the likes of greta which started scandanavia and on a huge herself south actually committed to not flying ten years ago and doesn't fly anywhere she tries to get everywhere by bicycle or public transport and encouraging people to perhaps when they think holiday today's stop thinking flight and papp's consider u._k. Destinations if that's weather based or even tried to get some of the european cities that they used to fly into by train in because once you take into account security cues immigration queues etc getting to the airport which is usually out of town. The train doesn't necessarily take that much longer and if you organize snuffing book in advance it can be a cheaper option so that's what she's trying to do is quite big. Trend 'cause we do think when we think of holidays we will think cheap travel. Let's go to spain so let's see what's the evidence. I mean how bad is flying compared with other pollutants well. It's really interesting because in terms of global carbon dioxide emissions aviation is only two percent don't which doesn't sound that bad but there's a raft of research over the last few years that show that the emissions airplanes not just carbon dioxide but also oh night trajan oxides also the contrails they create. Those are those white ice vapour clouds that you see in the sky when you see that white line behind the plane. That's called the contrails israel. All of that has an impact on global warming. That's much greater than just the c._o. Two impact so most of the studies show that the warming impact of planes is about twice the amount that you would expect just from c._o. Two alone because of those other factors so closer to five percent percent of man-made warming can be attributed to aviation the reason that climate activists are so worried about this is because it's an area. That's growing very very quickly. Kley so well in other sectors like power. We have wind and solar farms. Many countries in europe have already been decarbonising their power sectors or your our dr electric vehicles are growing with aviation. It's not really clear how it's going to decarbonised as you mentioned and also this is a very fast growing industry street. People are just travelling more than they used to so. You need to use spoken to a number of airline to executives. What's the industry doing then to combat this well. There are several several things they're doing in the short-term. They're often investing in more fuel-efficient aircraft and also there is carbon offsetting but carbon offsetting. He's not decarbonising so kabanov fittings when you purchase a tree also one industry insider told me that customers don't always realized that they can carbon offset or they choose not to carbon offset and it's quite difficult to sometimes encourage passengers to click on that bit of the website light when they're booking a ticket but in the long-term various airlines are looking alternative fuels and electrification but realistically these are aw long-term solutions which aren't going to happen in the future certainly at scale is anybody. She's investing real money into the alternative fuels could have been electrified. Haitian is quite a few years away. I mean nobody's predicting we'll be flying from london to new york anytime soon if all by twenty fifty in an all electric airline so these sort of alternative fuels are they investing lots of money in these people are investing. There are various airlines like b._a. Left-hand sir are working working with projects that will create biofuel or synthetic fuel united airlines is another company which is heavily involved in developing biofuel and is trying to really scale it up but looking at it globally. The investments are relatively small and it's not enough but there are airlines which feel about particularly in the u._k. Governments need to start stepping in and incentivizing <hes> lines to switch to other fuels because the problem in the moment is that jet fuel is much cheaper and so in terms of business model. It's very difficult to justify moving to an alternate fuel which is in some cases three times more expensive than leslie other any environmental sarmento concerns about some of these fuels. I think biofuels has become very very popular for the aviation industry to talk about. There's headlines lines about used cooking. Oil from your house can fuel this plane isn't that cool and snazzy and it is but what the research shows is that to actually create and produce biofuels at the scale that would be needed for aviation or for other forms of transport that can't be easily electrified at the moment. You would really need so much land to do that that it wouldn't be feasible at the large scale so the i._p._c. report. That's the report art from the u._n. Intergovernmental panel for climate change that came out earlier. This month showed that to limit global warming to one point five degrees would require prior seven million square kilometers of land for bio energy and seven million square kilometers the size of australia so this is a lot of land when bio fuels are done small-scale. You could grow a crop. Perhaps on some land wasn't being optimized or wasn't being used for food crops but if you think about twenty year's time global population is going to grow food needs are going to grow and if demand for biofuels growing along with that puts a lot of pressure on available arable land and is there an issue also with the of energy density of some of these biofuels. I mean i guess one of the issues again. Switching from kerosene does have a very high energy density which gives you that thrust thrust the airplane. I mean do they match up. I think looking at alternative views of the whole electro fuels if that can take off electro fuels are approach that does much that nc of kerosene which is why if it can be produced at scale in a sustainable way that could be a real breakthrough biofuels at the moment tend and to be used from what i can gather anyway tickly in the case of united for example the bio fuels are often a drop in fuel which is blended with kerosene so it might right behalf and hof lizzy. Can you explain what our electro fuels. Electricals also called synthetic fuels. The idea is using power from renewable. Oh energy like wind or solar to drive a chemical reaction that yields a synthetic fuel so rather than extracting fossil fuels from the ground. You are synthetically creating a product that basically can match kerosene very very closely using the power from renewable energy. Let's just go back to electric. Electrification people do talk about electric flying taxis which should be in the air by twenty twenty five. I just wanted how do you see that you nina talking to various. This people working on this and airlines for example easyjet is working with right electric to develop an electric aircraft which would be viable for their business but even an the likes of easyjet who quite bullish on the development of electric aircraft even they say the earliest electric aircraft aren't going to be in service until probably the twenty thirty s mostly because of certification it takes years to certify a new aircraft pilots will need retraining certain areas of airports pulse will need to be reconfigured to deal with the new demands of a completely different model of aircraft and even if we do see the first electric planes in the twenty thirty s. I likely to be hybrid so there might be elements of the journey that still run on fuel so possibly it might need fuel to get in the air and and then the electric will kick in when it's cruising but that remains to be seen. It sounds like it's all quite a long way off. I decide one final question. In terms of policies. I mean are there any the policies that the government should be putting in place now to advance all of this so at the moment the u._k. Has a passenger tax and i think it generates about out four billion a year but that goes straight to the treasury and is not designated for anything in particular is just tax on tickets and the chief executive of heathrow airport who i spoke to not recently has called for the government to start allocating at least some of that money towards developing a more sustainable aviation industry so i guess one other sort of conclusions. Is that it flying. We'll have become more expensive. If it's going to be greener in the future it remains to be seen but the way it's looking probably thank you very much. You need leslie and thank thank you for
Between The Lines
One Month After Australia's Un-Losable Election: Dissecting What Happened
"It's been a month since the federal election and the live apart. And the commentaries they remained in a state of disbelief and despair. This was, we will told the unlivable election. So just how did the pundits get my so badly? Roan is it fair to just blind? The polls will the coalition scare campaign as if scape campaigns never happened in politics. What do you think was this election reminder that many commentators, especially in the camera? Chris gallery. They really do. Leave in a bubble. Well, one veteran columnist consistently believed that the coalition had a pathway to victory and he's my guest today. Jared Henderson, now you've no doubt seen him as a regular guest on the inside, as you can read these call them every Saturday in the Weekend Australian, and he publishes a Wally read blog called media watch dog. Now, jeff. Rod is one of the leading historians of the liberal party. He's books include Menzies child, liberal party of Australia and Santa Maria. A most unusual man as published by immu p the Papp's Jared's. Mine work is executive director of the Sydney institute. Jared, it's great to have you on between the lines. Thanks for the invitation to them. Now, what are the punditry get the election so badly? Wrong, what I think you've got to look at brief contemporary history here. We know that the polls go to wrong with Trump's victory. The polls got it wrong with bricks and the penetration Australia should have been aware that Paul's aunt, who is reliable. But in a in a sense, I think must of the commentators in most of the journalist wanted the coalition defeated, and there was a sort of projection onto the electric of their own views. They didn't believe that the coalition was worthy of government. They didn't believe modem timbale should have been overthrown. They wanted the. Coalition replaced, and I think they projected onto the electric debuts day held without checking out what the views the electric hill, and I think biolog-, many of them are out of touch some common title is on the lift such as professor Judith Brit, from Latrobe university shoot. She took to the cover story in the monthly magazine leading up to the my I election. And she said that this was the headline laced self interest groups, the liberal party has little lift, but appeals to the hypocrisy on her lawn was that the liberals must be hoping that enough of it supporters. These are woods hours, morally bankrupt as it has become happy to try the planets, and they children's future for pocketful of Silva. Judas breath is very often wrong on these matters. It's twenty five years ago. She predicted the end of the liberal party that didn't work out too well, and then I saw her piece in the monthly, but it's rather superficial. Peace and innocent Sasol fractious pace because what she's saying is that Australian shouldn't be primarily consumer their economic interests. Now, I always sought before the campaign during the campaign that essentially Australians would those on their economic interest, because that was the only thing that can really determine about others thought that they should vote on perceptions of climate change who perceptions about the liberal party. But that's not how have worked in the past and, and make sense. If, if you'll someone on on modest to listen, modest means you're gonna look look after self. And, and I think it's wise that you do that. It's not simply self. It's also you family. I think there was a tendency of many of the commentariat heated look down on other astray ins they thought privately I thought they wouldn't express it they thought they went as. Well educated today with I wanted us in a sense that as morals with wanting, the real big issues. I mean in, in a meeting, I did very few discussions before the vixen vetted, one, one business Madiun, David Maron, Jennifer Hewett, and David Meyer. Showed me, the whole election was going to be decided on climate change and suggested David that he might drive out to the suburbs. So into some of the regional towns to find out what people really talking about about. He didn't do this and I didn't finish to the MAs of the will that they, they are get out clause now is that, well that would just following the polls and the polls consistently said that the coalition would not win the election and raises the question. And we saw the same phenomenon happen both with Brexit and Trump. And we've talked about the shy Trump factor that people feed and meeting, I'd vote for the Republican nomination, because he was socially unacceptable during the twenty sixteen Brexit referendum Paul's pointed to remind. Find victory millions of. Scheib residencies unite crypt into the Pauling booze. I voted leave you'll saying the same phenomenon heath. Well, we are saying the same here, but there's another factor. It's wrong to blame the Pels in in this insulin, usually, the Pels arrived, this time, the weren't right? But in any event, the magin was fifty one and a half to forty eight and a half. And that's still within the magic mirror. So very unwise for any journalist to say, well, look, the coalition's behind by that, much, of course, look at ninety ninety three when Paul Keating won a come from behind election victory Johnson. That was a classic wasn't it. Well, it was in 'cause pull ditties victory speech out in the western suburbs. And he come into the second eleven of journalists being sent. All the I live in was hanging around waiting for Joan his victory speech, which he, which he never delivered. So in a column, I did the Australian before in the period of the election said, Labour's, he went from a position on three occasions, not seventy two with Gulf with him. He was not a popular figure, but a huge figure then with Bob Hawke, who was both very popular figure, and a huge figure. And with Kevin rod who wasn't a huge figure, but a very popular figure. Now, when you look at it that way, Bill, shorten wasn't at that level. And then there was this fixation among sections of the press. Go raise it, the review among sections, the prescription some other commentators, that's okay for the liberal party to have a later who might win provided his name, Malcolm Turnbull, preps. Julie bishop. They didn't believe that the term should have been replaced, and therefore, they didn't believe that Morrison could win because they predicted they've you of turn belong to the electorate. But the electric didn't have that view of timber all guest is Jared Hinson is a columnist with the. Australia now on election, not the vanquish Tony Abbott. He talked about a political realignment in this country. Let's heave from the former prime minister. There is something of a rail lineman poets going on rolling around this country. It's clear that in what might be described as working seats. We are doing so much better. It's also clear in, at least some of what described as wealthy Sates way undoing it tough. And the Green Left is doing better. They will be gripe deal of analysis of the pot that climate China deal did not ply in the ring outcome. And let me just say these says, my first word if not necessarily my last word on this subject. Climate change is
Popcorn with Peter Travers
Kenneth Branagh talks 'All Is True'
"Everybody. I'm Peter Travers this popcorn where we tell. You. What's happening at the movies? And we have a movie now called all is true. It is the story of William Shakespeare in his later years. It stars my friend here Kenneth Branagh who also directed it. And did God knows what else, you know? Can I think it's kind of amazing? We were talking a little bit before about when I first encountered you which was you playing a Henry the fifth onscreen, which he directed as well as started Oscar nominations for both things. This was a Henry who was just filled with youth and vigor and was going to take on the world and everything and it was. This fresh vigorous approach to what Shakespeare is. And now, you're playing Shakespeare himself in his later years has that make you feel on usual. Unusual very privileged. Because the in a way, you know, Henry the fifth was a it was an amazing opportunity to have as a young actor, and a sort of virgin filmmaker and really was any possible because there were lots of other equally sorts of adventurous maverick figures in terms of the produces and an all sorts of other people who were taking a chance on me. I remember talking to the late. Great psalm. Go when junior when we were releasing that film in America saying cannot, please please, please. I I know I'm I'm I'm twenty I'm nobody another, but complete can I make two requests on the post police. Could you include two names, one is Judi Dench who I promise you people will know about sued they will know about and the other one pleases William Shakespeare, without whom none of us would be here. Why credit the writer well, just different additional dialogue anyway. But it was he was just too concerned about what was going. To get people into the side. No problem listening to a smart, man. He news who knew his market. But I suppose the send if things I keep sort of saying the same thank yous to people like Judy Dench shoop stuck with me through a journey through shakes. Things have you done with her? I mean we worked about together by seven times. And she's directed me. A couple of times and I've directed her. I've always learned from her and a couple of years ago, we did Shakespeare's play the winter's tale, which was really a prelude to making this film. All is true because she played Pauline a- a woman who speaks truth to power, and she puts my character in that play on a man who makes stupid mistake and loses a child as a result. She puts into the test puts into the sold, and that sort of ten ship became a starting point for Ben Elton thinking about how might Anne Hathaway and William Shakespeare's relation be after twenty years of him being away as the most famous of the agent and coming back to face the family. That's the the whole crux of the story. He's got this wife who he basically has neglected. Fully and two daughters and a dead son memories dealing with. But I always here we know nothing about what really happened in terms of what was going on and Shakespeare's life. So how does this come about that you get to play him at in sixteen thirteen when he's basically retired after the old gulp Peter burns down. He's going on. Well, belts looked at the existing facts factual as we knew them that appear in the Public Record Office. And so you'll find that on on a day in June of sixteen fourteen Joan lane stood up in the church. Holy trinity church in Stratford, and he called Shakespeare's daughter a whore. And he said she had gonna RIA and that she was sleeping with the a man who was not her husband. This is in public record quite clear. Everybody knew about it created a sensation because Shakespeare was returning celebrity and in the case of of someone so creatively prolific to come back to a tiny town. And a long way from London, and and after thirty seven plays in a great success workout, what to do even let alone what to say to a wife and daughters, who as you say been neglected, and who have if you think of in terms of the plays that he wrote we're to have plenty to say about what he might or might not have done or said in his terms. He's gonna he's gonna come to terms with how that sits, you know, the the this idea of what it's like for genius to deal with old and rely was also in the in the core of what we were trying to look at Ben Elton who did this works on in a very humorous way. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yeah. But that's it. He's coming up and people are saying who the hell are you, you know. And I think what again one of the fascinating about Shakespeare's. How elusive he is. You know, there are probably about twenty five about him in the public record of his places. He was things that happened during the course of his life, but many people find it hard to join the. The idea of the fellow we present who may not have gone to drama school comes from a relatively lower class and REO in small country town and goes off into the world and can write plays about Rome and Egypt. And and it's Lee, and and and politics and religion and do so without having had the classical education without being as whether classical idea of genius, lured by remand bad and dangerous to know living glamorous life of public scandal. That sound great. I'd buy some of that. But Shakespeare seems to go pups, you know, exemplify what flow BAC, hold when he described the autistic life and said, you need to be boys watering, your private life and revolutionary in your creative life, and you might argue that about Shakespeare, but but that that that's sort of contradiction tension between the ordinary man and the man capable of extrordinary creative output to me you so touching so point. So Shakespeare because he he often in his own. Own place. He pulls the rug from under the feet of grandiloquent people saying, you know, what? In the end, you're all going to need company. You're going to need help at the end of your life. You're all going to require a you're all you need a support that comes from very simple contact with human beings. It isn't all about being some grand Queen or king. Even if he writes, very well about them his genius. I think he's writing about the nitty gritty in love, isn't it? Yeah. It's kind of amazing that in terms of film television. Whatever we don't really get that much of him. We really don't. So you I'm watching this. And I'm thinking, okay. Here's the he's coming home that heroes coming on, and nobody really wants them. Yes. Everybody's white says really, you know. And also that they were illiterate, basically, women just weren't taught obsoleted. So so a lot Benneton I think to give a modern voice in the film to women who. Had not been listened to. And it didn't matter to them that father, even then was lauded as the as the poet of the age, his, you know, clear and present responsibility as a parent, and as a husband with something that they they challenge, and and they challenge indeed as most families experience, even with the most high-achieving mother or father out there in the world being spectacular comeback to your own, you know, kitchen table, and you're just a member of that family and people are are unimpressed in the tension. That accrues is important one of the things I admire about Shakespeare is that he does come back to stop. But he does he does. He does fess up. You know, he he they stay married, and we investigate and explore the idea of what what it meant when this is true in in Shakespeare's will he left his wife? His second best bed and many people. Regard this great slight or a snob or in front. We take a different view that might have that might actually be a layer of meaning in that that suggest Papp's. It's a it's more than a friendly. Gesture might even be a loving gesture. The title was originally
