00:00:06,335 --> 00:00:08,738
BAIRD: This afternoon,
I declared my intention
2
00:00:08,763 --> 00:00:11,402
to challenge for the
leadership of the Coalition.
3
00:00:11,403 --> 00:00:13,642
We've worked so hard for your deal.
4
00:00:13,643 --> 00:00:16,298
- ALEX: She didn't even need my vote.
- TRACEY: At least she won.
5
00:00:16,323 --> 00:00:17,722
CHRISTOPHER: That must hurt.
6
00:00:17,723 --> 00:00:20,002
The deal. It's been
dropped from the bill.
7
00:00:20,003 --> 00:00:21,083
FUCK!
8
00:00:22,523 --> 00:00:25,242
PETER: This man has been
identified as Thomas Campbell Jr,
9
00:00:25,243 --> 00:00:27,082
a close friend of Senator Alex Irving.
10
00:00:27,083 --> 00:00:30,802
I found Senator Irving to
be a fiercely determined...
11
00:00:30,803 --> 00:00:32,042
Dog with a bone.
12
00:00:32,043 --> 00:00:33,642
CHRISTOPHER: Kevin.
He's the kingmaker now.
13
00:00:33,643 --> 00:00:36,762
I haven't exactly emerged
feeling great about myself.
14
00:00:36,763 --> 00:00:39,282
That death in custody. It's a cover-up.
15
00:00:39,283 --> 00:00:42,642
MARTIN: Cartwright. You'll tell
me if and when you find out more?
16
00:00:42,643 --> 00:00:45,842
She says the guards shot
tear gas into their cell.
17
00:00:45,843 --> 00:00:50,202
What you're looking for is doubts
raised about the minister's account.
18
00:00:50,203 --> 00:00:53,123
Bloody Cartwright. It's like
he's two steps ahead of us.
19
00:00:54,243 --> 00:00:57,162
Or it's just a coincidence. Right?
20
00:00:57,163 --> 00:00:59,522
The police are looking for
her. They know what she did.
21
00:00:59,523 --> 00:01:01,443
She's found the girl.
22
00:01:03,163 --> 00:01:04,963
This is what I wanted to show you.
23
00:01:07,403 --> 00:01:08,723
EDDIE: Mum!
24
00:01:10,683 --> 00:01:12,043
Jess!
25
00:01:16,403 --> 00:01:19,002
Why were there so many
police there so quickly?
26
00:01:19,003 --> 00:01:20,322
POLICEMAN: We had a tip-off.
27
00:01:20,323 --> 00:01:24,003
We also know she had her phone.
Did you happen to see it at all?
28
00:01:25,283 --> 00:01:26,283
No.

FRAN KELLY: Tragedy at Sydney's
iconic Coogee Beach overnight
32
00:02:07,923 --> 00:02:10,202
has been met with a public outcry.
33
00:02:10,203 --> 00:02:12,284
Escaped detainee Jess Clarke
34
00:02:12,285 --> 00:02:14,926
was hit by a car while
fleeing from police.
35
00:02:14,927 --> 00:02:17,122
Witnesses have confirmed
it was an accident,
36
00:02:17,123 --> 00:02:18,562
however, the police...
37
00:02:18,563 --> 00:02:20,802
REPORTER: The presence of
Senator Alex Irving at the scene
38
00:02:20,803 --> 00:02:24,642
suggests she was in contact with
the 15-year-old girl, Jess Clarke.
39
00:02:24,643 --> 00:02:27,202
Senator Irving was
unavailable for comment,
40
00:02:27,203 --> 00:02:29,562
but a spokesperson from
her office maintained
41
00:02:29,563 --> 00:02:31,282
that the senator was in
Sydney on family business.
42
00:02:31,283 --> 00:02:33,322

heroic deeds captured in Mount Isa

all those months ago.

With government approval
ratings at an all-time low,
45
00:02:37,643 --> 00:02:39,402
one can only imagine
46
00:02:39,403 --> 00:02:42,962
that the Prime Minister's poster
girl's time in office is numbered.
47
00:02:42,963 --> 00:02:45,202
What the hell did you
think you were doing?
48
00:02:45,203 --> 00:02:48,242
- She asked for my protection.
- She was an escaped detainee.
49
00:02:48,243 --> 00:02:50,162
She was wanted for
putting a man in a coma.
50
00:02:50,163 --> 00:02:51,722
She had priors for theft
and public nuisance.
51
00:02:51,723 --> 00:02:53,082
She was a criminal, Alex.
52
00:02:53,083 --> 00:02:55,922
You were in constant contact with
her and you never reported it.
53
00:02:55,923 --> 00:03:00,042
The man was found with his pants
around his ankles and his cock out.
54
00:03:00,043 --> 00:03:01,043
Oh, please.
55
00:03:01,044 --> 00:03:02,602
There's footage of you
screaming at police.
56
00:03:02,603 --> 00:03:05,762
Do you have any idea how
much the public hate that?
57
00:03:05,763 --> 00:03:08,162
Jess Clarke was with Marcie
Maclean when she died.
58
00:03:08,163 --> 00:03:11,042
The guards shot tear
gas into their cell.
59
00:03:11,043 --> 00:03:13,442
Marcie Maclean suffocated.
60
00:03:13,443 --> 00:03:15,362
And Kevin knew about
it right from the start!
61
00:03:15,363 --> 00:03:16,962
He lied when he said it was asthma!
62
00:03:16,963 --> 00:03:19,762
Alex, please stop being so
naive. The girl played you.
63
00:03:19,763 --> 00:03:23,482
If Kevin lied to parliament, he
would be obligated to stand down,
64
00:03:23,483 --> 00:03:25,482
so you've just made a
very serious accusation
65
00:03:25,483 --> 00:03:27,363
against a senior member
of the government.
66
00:03:29,323 --> 00:03:31,122
What proof do you have?
67
00:03:31,123 --> 00:03:32,482
She told me.
68
00:03:32,483 --> 00:03:34,562
So you have absolutely no
evidence to back up this claim?
69
00:03:34,563 --> 00:03:36,722
I had Jess Clarke.
70
00:03:36,723 --> 00:03:38,922
- They killed her!
- No, Alex.
71
00:03:38,923 --> 00:03:42,643
She ran out onto the road and was
hit by a car. It was an accident.
72
00:03:49,563 --> 00:03:51,643
Does this stuff just follow you around?
73
00:03:54,203 --> 00:03:56,403
Last time, it got me to the Senate.
74
00:04:03,523 --> 00:04:05,682
OK, listen, I am gonna
put this down to the trauma
75
00:04:05,683 --> 00:04:07,122
that you've been through.
76
00:04:07,123 --> 00:04:10,042
I'd like you to cancel all your
appointments, go back to the hotel,
77
00:04:10,043 --> 00:04:12,922
don't even think about
talking to the media, and...
78
00:04:12,923 --> 00:04:14,643
...we'll sort out this mess.
79
00:04:18,843 --> 00:04:20,683
Thank you, Prime Minister.
80
00:04:35,123 --> 00:04:37,483
JILLIAN: Yes. I'll get her to
give you a call back. OK, bye.
81
00:04:38,723 --> 00:04:40,483
Senator.
82
00:04:43,963 --> 00:04:45,363
Are you OK?
83
00:04:48,123 --> 00:04:49,363
It was you.
84
00:04:50,963 --> 00:04:53,042
The police knew we'd be there.
85
00:04:53,043 --> 00:04:54,963
They even knew about
the phone. They knew.
86
00:04:56,043 --> 00:05:01,162
Every time, Cartwright's been one
step ahead of us. Every bloody time.
87
00:05:01,163 --> 00:05:02,522
We briefed that journalist,
88
00:05:02,523 --> 00:05:05,242
then Cartwright got out
in front with that story.
89
00:05:05,243 --> 00:05:06,403
Because you told him.
90
00:05:07,643 --> 00:05:09,442
I know he offered you a job, Jonathan.
91
00:05:09,443 --> 00:05:11,602
You already started working for him.
92
00:05:11,603 --> 00:05:14,002
What do you take me for, some
dumb black from the country?
93
00:05:14,003 --> 00:05:16,082
Hey, hey, wait a minute.
94
00:05:16,083 --> 00:05:17,842
It could have been any one of us.
95
00:05:17,843 --> 00:05:21,922
We all knew about the girl and
we were all here when you rang.
96
00:05:21,923 --> 00:05:24,842
So, you can check my call
logs, emails, anything,
97
00:05:24,843 --> 00:05:28,163
but do that with all of
us, not just Jonathan.

The police came... because of you?
101
00:05:54,643 --> 00:05:56,682
She died because of this.
102
00:05:56,683 --> 00:05:58,882
It's not my fault. It's not my fault.
103
00:05:58,883 --> 00:06:00,562
I wouldn't if I was you.

she led that girl on!

- No!

If you had called the police
as soon as she contacted you,
107
00:06:09,923 --> 00:06:11,602
she would still be alive.

doesn't deserve this witch-hunt!

good friends with Cartwright.

- Well, what was she doing here?
- Babysitting. Like the rest of us.

She's pretty ambitious. Maybe she
was unhappy I was offered the job.

Don't be like that. Look...
176
00:11:02,963 --> 00:11:05,682
No. Jesus Christ. Fay, this is serious.
177
00:11:05,683 --> 00:11:08,202
Yeah, all right. Just
let me grab it for you.
178
00:11:08,203 --> 00:11:09,722
They've charged Tom.
179
00:11:09,723 --> 00:11:13,283
Malicious damage, arson, riot
and affray, inciting violence.
180
00:11:14,363 --> 00:11:15,842
Yeah, I'm here.

RADIO PRESENTER:
Continuing to make headlines
182
00:11:17,683 --> 00:11:19,682
is the controversial
behaviour of this senator.
183
00:11:19,683 --> 00:11:21,562
So, let's go to the callers now.
184
00:11:21,563 --> 00:11:24,002
Our first caller here is Susan.
185
00:11:24,003 --> 00:11:26,562
- Susan, go ahead.
- SUSAN: That's just no way to behave.
186
00:11:26,563 --> 00:11:28,442
And she's supposed to be a politician.
187
00:11:28,443 --> 00:11:30,002
MAN: I wouldn't trust
her to run a country.
188
00:11:30,003 --> 00:11:31,442
And no-one voted for her, anyway...
189
00:11:31,443 --> 00:11:32,643

- Christopher! (CHUCKLES)
- Ooh! (LAUGHS)
192
00:11:43,323 --> 00:11:47,562
Ohh, you're a very bad man.
193
00:11:47,563 --> 00:11:49,962
I know!

00:11:49,963 --> 00:11:52,762

00:11:56,723 --> 00:11:59,522
- I need to be working.
- (CHUCKLES) No.

00:11:59,523 --> 00:12:01,282
No, no, no.

00:12:01,283 --> 00:12:02,723
Oh!
199
00:12:04,643 --> 00:12:08,282
You are very, very bad.
200
00:12:08,283 --> 00:12:11,922
And you are very, very drunk.
201
00:12:11,923 --> 00:12:16,082
Why'd you let me drink all those shots?
202
00:12:16,083 --> 00:12:17,723
And adorable.

00:14:21,203 --> 00:14:24,643
What happened in the detention
centre the night Marcie Maclean died?

00:14:26,763 --> 00:14:28,282
What?

00:14:33,483 --> 00:14:36,283
Well, why is there no mention
of tear gas being used?
225
00:14:43,283 --> 00:14:46,402
I saw the correspondence to Cartwright
226
00:14:46,403 --> 00:14:48,243
on that night from the detention centre.
227
00:14:50,683 --> 00:14:53,002
I know tear gas was used, but
it's not in the official reports
228
00:14:53,003 --> 00:14:54,962
or in any of the media statements.

- Did Cartwright bury it?

Did he lie to parliament?

What about paramedics or other
people that were there that night?
240

The guards didn't call
the ambulance straightaway.
241
00:15:50,843 --> 00:15:52,363
Why?

00:15:54,763 --> 00:15:56,482

Despite the protests,
249
00:16:13,683 --> 00:16:16,882
the government maintains its defence
of police handling of the matter.

Opposition Leader Laurie
Martin raised the temperature
251
00:16:19,323 --> 00:16:21,202
of his attacks on the Prime Minister.
252
00:16:21,203 --> 00:16:24,242
MARTIN: This government
needs to explain to the nation
253
00:16:24,243 --> 00:16:26,322
why relations with our Indigenous...
254
00:16:26,323 --> 00:16:29,922
- Can you turn that down, please?
- ...are at an all-time low.
255
00:16:29,923 --> 00:16:33,202
Why are children dying in the streets?
256
00:16:33,203 --> 00:16:36,642
Why is our national security
being compromised and jeopardised
257
00:16:36,643 --> 00:16:38,402
by their incompetence?
258
00:16:38,403 --> 00:16:40,482
I'll tell you why, because
of the Prime Minister.
259
00:16:40,483 --> 00:16:43,962
It's because she's hostage to
the Liberal right in her own party
260
00:16:43,963 --> 00:16:46,082
and she'd too weak and she's too scared
261
00:16:46,083 --> 00:16:49,722
to properly represent the
people of this great nation.
262
00:16:49,723 --> 00:16:53,603
So I say call an election now.
263
00:16:54,803 --> 00:16:56,722
Hello, you.
264
00:16:56,723 --> 00:16:59,402
How are you travelling? You've been
through hell lately. Are you OK?
265
00:16:59,403 --> 00:17:00,883
- Not really.
- Well...
266
00:17:02,523 --> 00:17:04,762
You said I belong on the
other side of the aisle.
267
00:17:04,763 --> 00:17:06,403
I did, didn't I?
268
00:17:08,963 --> 00:17:10,562
You know, Alex...
269
00:17:10,563 --> 00:17:13,482
...in recent years, my
colleagues have done their best
270
00:17:13,483 --> 00:17:18,482
to overcome their fears
of, uh... stroppy women.
271
00:17:18,483 --> 00:17:20,562
A development at least partly due
272
00:17:20,563 --> 00:17:23,282
to the increasing numbers
of stroppy women among them.
273
00:17:23,283 --> 00:17:26,522
But I speak for others, not myself here,
274
00:17:26,523 --> 00:17:31,002
when I ask you, do we
need one as stroppy as you?
275
00:17:31,003 --> 00:17:32,922
At this crucial juncture,
276
00:17:32,923 --> 00:17:35,883
with government and all that
lovely power within our grasp?
277
00:17:36,963 --> 00:17:38,322
Do we risk it?
278
00:17:38,323 --> 00:17:40,122
So you've had second thoughts?
279
00:17:40,123 --> 00:17:42,882
Well, to be fair, that
was before your, um...
280
00:17:42,883 --> 00:17:45,562
...association in the public's mind
281
00:17:45,563 --> 00:17:48,282
with vandalism, rioting,
282

the streets of Coogee.
283
00:17:50,963 --> 00:17:55,202
I mean, punters see your face on the
TV and they switch over to Vikings
284
00:17:55,203 --> 00:17:57,962
or Married At First Sight or
Vets With Big Chins, whatever,
285
00:17:57,963 --> 00:17:59,682
just to get a bit of peace.
286
00:17:59,683 --> 00:18:01,922
I'm prepared to jump ship.
287
00:18:01,923 --> 00:18:04,562
But on my terms, not yours.
288
00:18:04,563 --> 00:18:06,042
Well, you don't know my terms.
289
00:18:06,043 --> 00:18:08,878
Third place on the Queensland
Senate ticket next election.
290
00:18:08,879 --> 00:18:10,122
That the offer?
291
00:18:10,123 --> 00:18:11,722
Second, but close.
292
00:18:11,723 --> 00:18:13,362
I don't want to stay in the Senate.
293
00:18:13,363 --> 00:18:15,042
I want to move to the Reps.
294
00:18:15,043 --> 00:18:17,202
And I want Indigenous Affairs
and Community Services.
295
00:18:17,203 --> 00:18:20,282
Well, that one's not gonna be hard
to give you, 'cause no-one wants it.
296
00:18:20,283 --> 00:18:22,083
But I'm warning you,
it's a career-killer.
297
00:18:24,003 --> 00:18:26,443
Uh, and as for the first,
the House of Reps...
298
00:18:27,643 --> 00:18:30,283
...mmm, Alex, that is
very, very difficult.
299
00:18:31,283 --> 00:18:34,042
I'm prepared to leave the
government immediately.
300
00:18:34,043 --> 00:18:36,082
You'll have the balance of power.
301
00:18:36,083 --> 00:18:38,323
And you know we'll be voting on supply.
302
00:18:41,203 --> 00:18:43,642
You know what, Alex? It's
suddenly become less difficult.
303
00:18:43,643 --> 00:18:46,322
I think we can do something for you.
304
00:18:46,323 --> 00:18:50,602
In fact, I'll promise you.
Such is my admiration for you.
305
00:18:50,603 --> 00:18:53,083
But you've got to
promise me to tell no-one.
306
00:18:54,523 --> 00:18:56,362
No-one.
307
00:18:56,363 --> 00:18:57,643
That's our deal.
308
00:19:13,283 --> 00:19:16,363
Morning, Damien. Must have that
chat if your door's still open.
309
00:19:21,483 --> 00:19:23,002
Yeah, I understand, Keith.
310
00:19:23,003 --> 00:19:25,282
You breach confidentiality,
you might lose your job.
311
00:19:25,283 --> 00:19:26,842
But that didn't seem to bother you
312
00:19:26,843 --> 00:19:28,683
when you started fucking
your boss, did it?
313
00:19:31,283 --> 00:19:35,042
Yep. Macauley Detention Centre.
314
00:19:35,043 --> 00:19:38,203
The detainee was a
teenager, Marcie Maclean.
315
00:19:39,443 --> 00:19:41,083
Apparently, paramedics attended.
316
00:19:42,643 --> 00:19:45,963
You know everyone up
there. Just figure it out.
317
00:19:49,843 --> 00:19:51,243
Jonathan?
318
00:19:52,523 --> 00:19:55,202
Thank you, Senator. You've
given us a lot to think about.
319
00:19:55,203 --> 00:19:58,683
- Oh, pass on my regards to Rosemary.
- Will do. Thanks very much.
320
00:20:00,243 --> 00:20:02,002
Fucking Mortensen.
321
00:20:02,003 --> 00:20:03,682
Oh.
322
00:20:03,683 --> 00:20:05,402
- Thanks, mate.
- No problem.
323
00:20:05,403 --> 00:20:08,882
He's making ambit claims. He knows
Senator Irving's on the way out.
324
00:20:08,883 --> 00:20:10,442
There are several in the party
325
00:20:10,443 --> 00:20:12,722
who will welcome what
he's just proposed.
326
00:20:12,723 --> 00:20:15,323
If we could ignore the
neo-fascist fuckwittery.
327
00:20:16,723 --> 00:20:20,642
Cartwright's ministry signed
off on $450 million of work
328
00:20:20,643 --> 00:20:22,482
to tenders last financial year.
329
00:20:22,483 --> 00:20:23,722
To Exebuild?
330
00:20:23,723 --> 00:20:25,402
Not directly. To a range of companies.
331
00:20:25,403 --> 00:20:27,122
But when I dug a little deeper,
332
00:20:27,123 --> 00:20:29,602
I found a lot of them
were... shell companies.
333
00:20:29,603 --> 00:20:33,482
Effectively 70% of the
tenders went to Exebuild.
334
00:20:33,483 --> 00:20:35,242
So, what's Cartwright's
connection to this?
335
00:20:35,243 --> 00:20:38,362
I haven't found one. He hasn't
declared a conflict of interest.
336
00:20:38,363 --> 00:20:40,443
His office has been stonewalling me.
337
00:20:42,403 --> 00:20:44,322
- And guaranteed?
- Guaranteed.
338
00:20:44,323 --> 00:20:46,162
All right. I can live with that.
339
00:20:46,163 --> 00:20:48,522
Well, that should give you Mortensen.
340
00:20:48,523 --> 00:20:51,642
My bloc is going to support you.
There's no way Bauer can challenge.
341
00:20:51,643 --> 00:20:53,042
I need to be sure of that.
342
00:20:53,043 --> 00:20:55,803
As long as I'm here,
they're right behind you.

Sure.

- Better, thank you.

- How's your boy?
- Upset.

00:32:43,043 --> 00:32:45,003
What do you want?
522
00:32:46,483 --> 00:32:50,403
I want you to announce your support
for the deal in the House of Reps.
523
00:32:51,763 --> 00:32:53,722
You'll say that you'll
keep on working on it
524
00:32:53,723 --> 00:32:55,842
until you get an agreement.
525
00:32:55,843 --> 00:32:57,603
And you do it this afternoon.
526
00:33:02,403 --> 00:33:04,882
I would have to use this against Kevin.
527
00:33:04,883 --> 00:33:08,602
Well, you can both make a nice
little speech about reconciliation.
528
00:33:08,603 --> 00:33:10,962
And you guarantee the
footage won't be seen?
529
00:33:10,963 --> 00:33:12,323
Yes.
530
00:33:13,723 --> 00:33:15,083
Yeah, all right.
531
00:33:31,643 --> 00:33:34,282
- We still alive?
- Just.
532
00:33:34,283 --> 00:33:35,562
What shall I tell Kevin?
533
00:33:35,563 --> 00:33:37,442
Nothing yet. Have we
heard from Mortensen?
534
00:33:37,443 --> 00:33:39,003
- No.
- Fuck!
535
00:33:41,243 --> 00:33:43,002
All right.
536
00:33:43,003 --> 00:33:45,002
Get me the long form on her Winton deal.
537
00:33:45,003 --> 00:33:47,242
Just give me five minutes and
then bring in my nine o'clock.
538
00:33:47,243 --> 00:33:48,803
Sure.
539
00:33:51,643 --> 00:33:53,243
(DOOR OPENS)
540
00:33:54,803 --> 00:33:56,643
Jonathan. A word?
541
00:34:09,883 --> 00:34:11,882
(SIGHS) I'm sorry.
542
00:34:11,883 --> 00:34:13,803
You didn't deserve
the way I treated you.
543
00:34:17,323 --> 00:34:18,602
Thank you.
544
00:34:18,603 --> 00:34:20,163
But you need to resign.
545
00:34:23,043 --> 00:34:24,842
I know you're ambitious.
546
00:34:24,843 --> 00:34:27,002
I know the party regards you.
547
00:34:27,003 --> 00:34:29,683
But if you stay with me, you
can kiss all of that goodbye.
548
00:34:31,723 --> 00:34:33,882
I can't go into details.
549
00:34:33,883 --> 00:34:38,282
But if you stay with me, your
career in the party will be over.
550
00:34:38,283 --> 00:34:40,682
So you either resign or I sack you.
551
00:34:40,683 --> 00:34:42,362
For your own good.
552
00:34:42,363 --> 00:34:44,523
This is gonna blow up. Today.
553
00:34:56,283 --> 00:34:59,483
My friend in Cartwright's office...
554
00:35:01,403 --> 00:35:04,922
...confirmed that initial
reports into Marcie Maclean's death
555
00:35:04,923 --> 00:35:08,402
point to operational negligence
and individual cruelty.
556
00:35:08,403 --> 00:35:11,883
You were right. Cartwright buried
the reports and lied to parliament.
557
00:35:13,323 --> 00:35:14,762
Why?
558
00:35:14,763 --> 00:35:17,402
Well, it comes down to Exebuild.
559
00:35:17,403 --> 00:35:20,682
They built and manage the
Macauley Detention Centre.
560
00:35:20,683 --> 00:35:23,202
They also secured the tender
to build the base in Winton,
561
00:35:23,203 --> 00:35:24,882
which is surprising,
562
00:35:24,883 --> 00:35:27,842
because the department
selected another company.
563
00:35:27,843 --> 00:35:30,282
Now, Cartwright has
never officially declared
564
00:35:30,283 --> 00:35:32,562
his financial interests in the company,
565
00:35:32,563 --> 00:35:34,442
but I gained access to his records,
566
00:35:34,443 --> 00:35:37,802
and every time Exebuild or
one of its shell companies
567
00:35:37,803 --> 00:35:39,562
is awarded a tender,
568
00:35:39,563 --> 00:35:43,682
money gets paid into an
entity called KAPC Holdings
569
00:35:43,683 --> 00:35:45,722
operating out of the Caymans.
570
00:35:45,723 --> 00:35:47,362
KAPC?
571
00:35:47,363 --> 00:35:50,283
The initials of his wife and kids.
572
00:35:55,043 --> 00:35:56,482
So he blocked the deal
573
00:35:56,483 --> 00:36:00,082
because the native title holders
had veto over the tender process
574
00:36:00,083 --> 00:36:03,162
and if they didn't go with
Exebuild, he'd get nothing?
575
00:36:03,163 --> 00:36:04,722
Correct.
576
00:36:04,723 --> 00:36:06,282
Do you think the PM knows?
577
00:36:06,283 --> 00:36:08,002
There's no evidence she does,
578
00:36:08,003 --> 00:36:11,563
but she needs him to keep her
job and to keep the wolves at bay.
579
00:36:17,203 --> 00:36:19,882
- You can prove all this?
- I have the paper trail.
580
00:36:19,883 --> 00:36:21,802
This could damage your
friend when it comes out.
581
00:36:21,803 --> 00:36:23,923
I know that. And so does he.
582
00:36:33,123 --> 00:36:35,003
Why are you backing
me and not the party?
583
00:36:36,083 --> 00:36:39,683
Well, as you said... I'm very ambitious.
584
00:36:41,483 --> 00:36:43,522
How far do you want to go with this?
585
00:36:43,523 --> 00:36:45,003
As far as I can.

Jonathan.
587
00:36:54,243 --> 00:36:55,842
The Prime Minister promised
588
00:36:55,843 --> 00:36:58,602
to renew her support for
the Winton deal in parliament
589
00:36:58,603 --> 00:37:00,602
in return for suppression of the footage
590
00:37:00,603 --> 00:37:02,362
that proves that Cartwright lied.
591
00:37:02,363 --> 00:37:03,883
Do you believe her?
592
00:37:05,323 --> 00:37:06,602
That's the Senate agenda.
593
00:37:06,603 --> 00:37:08,922
I'm just finishing my
notes for the Winton deal.

595

- No, ma'am.

00:37:27,363 --> 00:37:30,442
I need you outside the House chamber.
598
00:37:30,443 --> 00:37:33,163
Text me if she commits
to reopening the deal.
599
00:37:34,563 --> 00:37:36,802
Do we expect her to?
600
00:37:36,803 --> 00:37:38,283
Unlikely.
601
00:37:42,203 --> 00:37:43,603
Are you OK?
602
00:38:15,123 --> 00:38:16,922

gentlemen of the Senate,

00:38:16,923 --> 00:38:20,682
regarding Supply Bill No. 3
for the current financial year.
604
00:38:20,683 --> 00:38:22,802
Following the third and final reading,
605
00:38:22,803 --> 00:38:26,362
I believe Senator Mortensen
wishes to make a brief statement.
606
00:38:26,363 --> 00:38:31,282
I've previously vowed to
block supply, as you all know.
607
00:38:31,283 --> 00:38:33,482
Well, I'm reversing that decision today.

00:38:34,883 --> 00:38:37,442
But I will hold this
government to account.
610
00:38:37,443 --> 00:38:39,042
I don't like this government.
611
00:38:39,043 --> 00:38:41,922
However, I recognise
their mandate to govern,
612
00:38:41,923 --> 00:38:44,922
and they're a damn sight better
than the rabble across the aisle.
613
00:38:44,923 --> 00:38:47,562
So, yes, I will support this bill.

vital and unheralded roles

over no less than six
successive parliaments.
619
00:39:03,203 --> 00:39:07,402
Her sense of history and
decorum will be sorely missed.

ring for a period of one minute

632
00:40:10,003 --> 00:40:12,642
Mr President, it has
come to my attention
633
00:40:12,643 --> 00:40:17,122
that the Prime Minister is
covering up a very serious crime
634
00:40:17,123 --> 00:40:19,882
committed by one of her own ministers.

like I'm seeing over

Thank you, Mr Speaker.
654
00:41:28,403 --> 00:41:30,402
My question is addressed
to the Prime Minister,
655
00:41:30,403 --> 00:41:32,562
and it comes in two parts.
656
00:41:32,563 --> 00:41:35,882
Firstly, when will the Prime
Minister call an election?

(MEMBERS SHOUT)
658
00:41:37,203 --> 00:41:39,522

- (LAUGHTER)
- Order.
660
00:41:41,683 --> 00:41:44,802
Secondly... is the Prime Minister aware
661
00:41:44,803 --> 00:41:49,682
that moments ago, her supply
bill was voted down in the Senate?
662
00:41:49,683 --> 00:41:51,002
Rubbish!
663
00:41:51,003 --> 00:41:53,802
And, Mr Speaker, that a
senator from her own party
664
00:41:53,803 --> 00:41:55,722
has accused this prime minister
665
00:41:55,723 --> 00:41:58,682
of covering up corruption
by a cabinet minister?!
666
00:41:58,683 --> 00:42:01,522
Sit down and die of shame, Laurie!
667
00:42:01,523 --> 00:42:03,922
Mr Speaker, I ask that the
Leader of the Opposition
668
00:42:03,923 --> 00:42:06,962
immediately withdraw
that unsubstantiated slur!
669
00:42:06,963 --> 00:42:08,522
Mr Speaker, the same senator
670
00:42:08,523 --> 00:42:11,842
has now withdrawn support
for this government.
671
00:42:11,843 --> 00:42:15,562
The Prime Minister cannot govern.
She cannot even lead her own team.
672
00:42:15,563 --> 00:42:20,802
Therefore, Mr Speaker, I am calling
for a motion of no confidence!
673
00:42:20,803 --> 00:42:23,602
- Oh, rubbish!
- Order!
674
00:42:23,603 --> 00:42:26,042

spit by an entitled kid

who can't stop throwing
his toys out of the cot!
678
00:42:33,243 --> 00:42:35,962
- So I ask again, Mr Speaker...
- Order!
679
00:42:35,963 --> 00:42:39,202
...that this howling hypocrite
of mediocrity sitting opposite me
680
00:42:39,203 --> 00:42:44,042
find just a skerrick of character,
withdraw his unsubstantiated comment
681
00:42:44,043 --> 00:42:45,522
and apologise immediately.

- I have the confidence of my party...
- Oh, Jesus Christ.

...I have the confidence of the House
687
00:42:59,203 --> 00:43:01,762
and I have the confidence
of the Australian people!
688
00:43:01,763 --> 00:43:05,362
Mr Speaker, this is a disruption
of our parliamentary process.
689
00:43:05,363 --> 00:43:08,642
It's nothing short of a hostile
takeover of our democracy!

will resume her seat.

Regarding the motion of no confidence
693
00:43:13,723 --> 00:43:15,922
tabled by the Honourable
Leader of the Opposition,
694
00:43:15,923 --> 00:43:17,762

Ayes to my left, noes to my right.

703
00:44:43,763 --> 00:44:45,442
Sorry, Peter.
704

Me too.
705

PATRICIA KARVELAS: It's a
bitter and embarrassing end
707
00:45:22,763 --> 00:45:25,162
to the prime ministership
that promised so much
708
00:45:25,163 --> 00:45:27,122
but in the end delivered little.
709
00:45:27,123 --> 00:45:31,002
Rachel Anderson has presented
herself as a champion of the centre
710
00:45:31,003 --> 00:45:34,122
in a party that was turning
progressively to the right,
711
00:45:34,123 --> 00:45:37,602
and for a while, it seemed
that voters had embraced this.
712
00:45:37,603 --> 00:45:40,242
Will another member of the
party seek the leadership
713
00:45:40,243 --> 00:45:42,522
and attempt to win the
support of the House,
714
00:45:42,523 --> 00:45:45,882
or will the now ex-prime minister
advise the Governor-General
715
00:45:45,883 --> 00:45:47,602
to call an election?
716
00:45:47,603 --> 00:45:49,362
Whatever happens from here,
717
00:45:49,363 --> 00:45:52,282
it's clear that Rachel Anderson's
tenure as prime minister
718
00:45:52,283 --> 00:45:54,922
has ended in shame and humiliation.

Scotch?
724
00:46:25,803 --> 00:46:28,763
Peter was right. You
really are a black bitch.
725
00:46:34,163 --> 00:46:36,282
You know, Alex, it's taken us 100 years
726
00:46:36,283 --> 00:46:38,722
to get a party system that works.
727
00:46:38,723 --> 00:46:41,562
All you see is shit and corruption.
728
00:46:41,563 --> 00:46:44,403

(SNIFFLES)
730
00:46:46,683 --> 00:46:50,122
But you know what? That
is how democracy works.
731
00:46:50,123 --> 00:46:52,842
It's not perfect, but it's
a thousand times better
732
00:46:52,843 --> 00:46:54,442
than anything we've ever come up with,
733
00:46:54,443 --> 00:46:55,802
because it's contained.
734
00:46:55,803 --> 00:46:58,362
It is contained by
precedent and procedures
735
00:46:58,363 --> 00:47:01,082
and tiny, unbreakable
threads of goodwill
736
00:47:01,083 --> 00:47:02,723
that just sort of make it work.
737
00:47:07,843 --> 00:47:10,242
There's one thing this
system can't survive,
738
00:47:10,243 --> 00:47:11,962
and it's people like you.
739
00:47:11,963 --> 00:47:14,402
People who can't accept that
the world isn't with them
740
00:47:14,403 --> 00:47:16,042
because they're afraid of selling out.
741
00:47:16,043 --> 00:47:18,842
Because you people don't
actually believe in democracy,
742
00:47:18,843 --> 00:47:22,562
just your own miserable virtue and
the purity of some fucking position.
743
00:47:22,563 --> 00:47:24,082
And if we were all like that, Alex,
744
00:47:24,083 --> 00:47:26,243
we would have fascism by the weekend.

Are you finished?

00:47:32,923 --> 00:47:35,123
You don't get to lecture
me anymore, Rachel.
747
00:47:36,283 --> 00:47:38,602
So much for the sisterhood.

You're a sister when it suits you.

you unicorns and rainbows,

dust settles, you'll see...
