1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,639
This afternoon, I declared my intention
2
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,279
to challenge for the
leadership of the Coalition.
3
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,919
We've worked so hard for your deal.
4
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:10,279
- She didn't even need my vote.
- At least she won.
5
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:11,679
That must hurt.
6
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,959
The deal. It's been
dropped from the bill.
7
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:15,040
FUCK!
8
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,199
This man has been identified
as Thomas Campbell Jr,
9
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,039
a close friend of Senator Alex Irving.
10
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:24,759
I found Senator Irving to
be a fiercely determined...
11
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:25,999
Dog with a bone.
12
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,599
Kevin. He's the kingmaker now.
13
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,719
I haven't exactly emerged
feeling great about myself.
14
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,239
That death in custody. It's a cover-up.
15
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,599
Cartwright. You'll tell me
if and when you find out more?
16
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,799
She says the guards shot
tear gas into their cell.
17
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:44,159
What you're looking for is doubts
raised about the minister's account.
18
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:47,080
Bloody Cartwright. It's like
he's two steps ahead of us.
19
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,119
Or it's just a coincidence. Right?
20
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,479
The police are looking for
her. They know what she did.
21
00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:55,400
She's found the girl.
22
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:58,920
This is what I wanted to show you.
23
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:02,680
Mum!
24
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,000
Jess!
25
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,959
Why were there so many
police there so quickly?
26
00:01:12,960 --> 00:01:14,279
We had a tip-off.
27
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,960
We also know she had her phone.
Did you happen to see it at all?
28
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:20,240
No.
29
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:30,560
Mum!
30
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,879
Tragedy at Sydney's iconic
Coogee Beach overnight
31
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,159
has been met with a public outcry.
32
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,241
Escaped detainee Jess Clarke
33
00:02:06,242 --> 00:02:08,883
was hit by a car while
fleeing from police.
34
00:02:08,884 --> 00:02:11,079
Witnesses have confirmed
it was an accident,
35
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:12,519
however, the police...
36
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,759
The presence of Senator
Alex Irving at the scene
37
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,599
suggests she was in contact with
the 15-year-old girl, Jess Clarke.
38
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,159
Senator Irving was
unavailable for comment,
39
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,519
but a spokesperson from
her office maintained
40
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,239
that the senator was in
Sydney on family business.
41
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,279
... her heroic deeds
captured in Mount Isa
42
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:28,679
all those months ago.
43
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,599
With government approval
ratings at an all-time low,
44
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,359
one can only imagine
45
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,919
that the Prime Minister's poster
girl's time in office is numbered.
46
00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:39,159
What the hell did you
think you were doing?
47
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,199
- She asked for my protection.
- She was an escaped detainee.
48
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,119
She was wanted for
putting a man in a coma.
49
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:45,679
She had priors for theft
and public nuisance.
50
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,039
She was a criminal, Alex.
51
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,879
You were in constant contact with
her and you never reported it.
52
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:53,999
The man was found with his pants
around his ankles and his cock out.
53
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Oh, please.
54
00:02:55,001 --> 00:02:56,559
There's footage of you
screaming at police.
55
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,719
Do you have any idea how
much the public hate that?
56
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,119
Jess Clarke was with Marcie
Maclean when she died.
57
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,999
The guards shot tear
gas into their cell.
58
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,399
Marcie Maclean suffocated.
59
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,319
And Kevin knew about
it right from the start!
60
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:10,919
He lied when he said it was asthma!
61
00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:13,719
Alex, please stop being so
naive. The girl played you.
62
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,439
If Kevin lied to parliament, he
would be obligated to stand down,
63
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,439
so you've just made a
very serious accusation
64
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,320
against a senior member
of the government.
65
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,079
What proof do you have?
66
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:26,439
She told me.
67
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,519
So you have absolutely no
evidence to back up this claim?
68
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,679
I had Jess Clarke.
69
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,879
- They killed her!
- No, Alex.
70
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,600
She ran out onto the road and was
hit by a car. It was an accident.
71
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,600
Does this stuff just follow you around?
72
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,360
Last time, it got me to the Senate.
73
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,639
OK, listen, I am gonna
put this down to the trauma
74
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,079
that you've been through.
75
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,999
I'd like you to cancel all your
appointments, go back to the hotel,
76
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,879
don't even think about
talking to the media, and...
77
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,600
... we'll sort out this mess.
78
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,640
Thank you, Prime Minister.
79
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,440
Yes. I'll get her to give
you a call back. OK, bye.
80
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,440
Senator.
81
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,320
Are you OK?
82
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:43,320
It was you.
83
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,999
The police knew we'd be there.
84
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,920
They even knew about
the phone. They knew.
85
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:55,119
Every time, Cartwright's been one
step ahead of us. Every bloody time.
86
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,479
We briefed that journalist,
87
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,199
then Cartwright got out
in front with that story.
88
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:00,360
Because you told him.
89
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,399
I know he offered you a job, Jonathan.
90
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,559
You already started working for him.
91
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,959
What do you take me for, some
dumb black from the country?
92
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,039
Hey, hey, wait a minute.
93
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:11,799
It could have been any one of us.
94
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,879
We all knew about the girl and
we were all here when you rang.
95
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,799
So, you can check my call
logs, emails, anything,
96
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,120
but do that with all of
us, not just Jonathan.
97
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:37,640
Jillian!
98
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,759
You?
99
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:46,200
The police came... because of you?
100
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,639
She died because of this.
101
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,839
It's not my fault. It's not my fault.
102
00:05:52,840 --> 00:05:54,519
I wouldn't if I was you.
103
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,479
Both of you know that
she led that girl on!
104
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:57,720
- Jillian...
- No!
105
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,879
If you had called the police
as soon as she contacted you,
106
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:05,559
she would still be alive.
107
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,959
Kevin is a good minister. He
doesn't deserve this witch-hunt!
108
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,120
OK, OK. Just... just... You stop there.
109
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,040
Get the fuck out of my office.
110
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,480
I didn't know she'd...
111
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,679
Senator Irving's office.
112
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,160
Uh... I'm sorry. The senator's
not taking calls right now.
113
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,239
Birthdays... addresses...
114
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,320
Senator. Are you OK?
115
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:39,880
Hey.
116
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,199
I'm really sorry about that young girl.
117
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:45,799
And Jillian.
118
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,040
Thank you.
119
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,839
If I wanted to unlock a
phone without using a PIN,
120
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,599
how do I do that?
121
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,399
When my daughter forgot her
password, she googled what to do,
122
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,519
and I think it was pretty easy.
123
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,400
But it did wipe everything on the phone.
124
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:14,959
Senator Irving's office.
125
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,519
Do you think there could be
any truth in what she said?
126
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,280
Possibly.
127
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,439
Oh, well, thanks for not pointing out
128
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,679
it was against your
advice I brought her in.
129
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,160
We did gain a brief bounce
from her in the polls.
130
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,639
All right. What are my options?
131
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,840
Cartwright's the one
keeping you in the chair.
132
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,360
Yep.
133
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,919
All right. Get onto Kevin.
134
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,599
Tell him we'll freeze her out
at the end of the sitting week.
135
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,320
We have to pass supply.
136
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:48,999
We're gonna need Mortensen.
137
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,479
He's keen to roll back gun control.
138
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,599
Yeah, well, that's not gonna
happen after New Zealand,
139
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,719
so let's find something else he'll take.
140
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,160
Understood.
141
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:09,760
Jonathan.
142
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,200
What?
143
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,560
- Did you have any idea?
- No. Obviously.
144
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,680
Apparently her father's
good friends with Cartwright.
145
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,560
- Well, what was she doing here?
- Babysitting. Like the rest of us.
146
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:34,079
She's pretty ambitious. Maybe she
was unhappy I was offered the job.
147
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:35,519
And are you gonna take it?
148
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,160
Is there any point in me staying?
149
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,160
You can't blame me for asking.
150
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,039
I'm seeing someone in
Cartwright's office.
151
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,719
I like him and I haven't
even told him anything,
152
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,320
and you turn around and accuse
me of being disloyal.
153
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:00,920
They tear-gassed Marcie Maclean.
154
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:03,800
I saw the video.
155
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:06,640
You need to decide where you stand.
156
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:26,920
Yeah, well, that's
not how the law works.
157
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,960
- Just tell me what they say.
- Hi.
158
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,960
Well, if he's given a statement,
there's not much we can do.
159
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,279
I've got a call coming through...
160
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,680
- You know how I'm crap at technology?
- Yeah.
161
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,839
Can you unlock this without
wiping any of the stuff off?
162
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,040
Yeah, I know. I know.
163
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:52,959
Yeah... yeah, listen to me, now.
164
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,199
This is that girl's phone, eh?
165
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:56,919
Don't be like that. Look...
166
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,639
No. Jesus Christ. Fay, this is serious.
167
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,159
Yeah, all right. Just
let me grab it for you.
168
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:03,679
They've charged Tom.
169
00:11:03,680 --> 00:11:07,240
Malicious damage, arson, riot
and affray, inciting violence.
170
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:09,799
Yeah, I'm here.
171
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,639
Continuing to make headlines
172
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,639
is the controversial
behaviour of this senator.
173
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,519
So, let's go to the callers now.
174
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,959
Our first caller here is Susan.
175
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,519
- Susan, go ahead.
- That's just no way to behave.
176
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,399
And she's supposed to be a politician.
177
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:23,959
I wouldn't trust her to run a country.
178
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:25,399
And no-one voted for her, anyway...
179
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:26,600
Why was she even there?
180
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,199
Shh! Jesus Christ!
181
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:37,279
- Christopher!
- Ooh!
182
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:41,519
Ohh, you're a very bad man.
183
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,919
I know!
184
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,719
I shouldn't have had that last bottle!
185
00:11:50,680 --> 00:11:53,479
- I need to be working.
- No.
186
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,239
No, no, no.
187
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:56,680
Oh!
188
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,239
You are very, very bad.
189
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,879
And you are very, very drunk.
190
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:10,039
Why'd you let me drink all those shots?
191
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:11,680
And adorable.
192
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,880
- Pretty late, don't you think?
- Uh, yeah.
193
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:02,759
You got it?
194
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,080
Yep.
195
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:16,840
Mm-hm.
196
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,280
Could you just, uh...
197
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:21,840
Right.
198
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:28,639
Hey! Bub, bub.
199
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,520
It's OK. Bub.
200
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,319
Hey.
201
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:36,799
You're having a nightmare.
202
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,320
It's just a bad dream.
203
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:13,520
Ohh! There is not enough
caffeine in the world today.
204
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,600
What happened in the detention
centre the night Marcie Maclean died?
205
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,239
What?
206
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:23,680
Come on. You heard me.
207
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,439
Why are you asking?
208
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,240
Well, why is there no mention
of tear gas being used?
209
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,359
I saw the correspondence to Cartwright
210
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,200
on that night from the detention centre.
211
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,959
I know tear gas was used, but
it's not in the official reports
212
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:48,919
or in any of the media statements.
213
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,399
- How did you get into my computer?
- Did Cartwright bury it?
214
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,520
What the fuck, Jonathan?
215
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,160
Did Cartwright know?
216
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,040
Did he lie to parliament?
217
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,199
Why didn't you tell me?
218
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,600
Because I would lose my job!
219
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,879
Were there any initial reports
that mentioned tear gas?
220
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,360
- Yes.
- Where are they?
221
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,000
Fuck.
222
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,840
What about paramedics or other
people that were there that night?
223
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,799
The guards didn't call
the ambulance straightaway.
224
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:46,320
Why?
225
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,439
I guess to give them time.
226
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:51,760
Yeah, OK.
227
00:15:58,080 --> 00:15:59,480
What are you gonna do?
228
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:01,799
Public vigils
229
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,759
to commemorate dead teenager Jess Clarke
230
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,279
will take place across
the country today.
231
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:07,639
Despite the protests,
232
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,839
the government maintains its defence
of police handling of the matter.
233
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,279
Opposition Leader Laurie
Martin raised the temperature
234
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,159
of his attacks on the Prime Minister.
235
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,199
This government needs
to explain to the nation
236
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,279
why relations with our Indigenous...
237
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,879
- Can you turn that down, please?
- ... are at an all-time low.
238
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:27,159
Why are children dying in the streets?
239
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,599
Why is our national security
being compromised and jeopardised
240
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,359
by their incompetence?
241
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,439
I'll tell you why, because
of the Prime Minister.
242
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,919
It's because she's hostage to
the Liberal right in her own party
243
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,039
and she'd too weak and she's too scared
244
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,679
to properly represent the
people of this great nation.
245
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,560
So I say call an election now.
246
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,679
Hello, you.
247
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,359
How are you travelling? You've been
through hell lately. Are you OK?
248
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:54,840
- Not really.
- Well...
249
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,719
You said I belong on the
other side of the aisle.
250
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,360
I did, didn't I?
251
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:04,519
You know, Alex...
252
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,439
... in recent years, my
colleagues have done their best
253
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:12,439
to overcome their fears
of, uh... stroppy women.
254
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,519
A development at least partly due
255
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,239
to the increasing numbers
of stroppy women among them.
256
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,479
But I speak for others, not myself here,
257
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,959
when I ask you, do we
need one as stroppy as you?
258
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:26,879
At this crucial juncture,
259
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,840
with government and all that
lovely power within our grasp?
260
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:32,279
Do we risk it?
261
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,079
So you've had second thoughts?
262
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,839
Well, to be fair, that
was before your, um...
263
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,519
... association in the public's mind
264
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,239
with vandalism, rioting,
265
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,919
young girls dying on
the streets of Coogee.
266
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:49,159
I mean, punters see your face on the
TV and they switch over to Vikings
267
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,919
or Married At First Sight or
Vets With Big Chins, whatever,
268
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,639
just to get a bit of peace.
269
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,879
I'm prepared to jump ship.
270
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,519
But on my terms, not yours.
271
00:17:58,520 --> 00:17:59,999
Well, you don't know my terms.
272
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,835
Third place on the Queensland
Senate ticket next election.
273
00:18:02,836 --> 00:18:04,079
That the offer?
274
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:05,679
Second, but close.
275
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,319
I don't want to stay in the Senate.
276
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:08,999
I want to move to the Reps.
277
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,159
And I want Indigenous Affairs
and Community Services.
278
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,239
Well, that one's not gonna be hard
to give you, 'cause no-one wants it.
279
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,040
But I'm warning you,
it's a career-killer.
280
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,400
Uh, and as for the first,
the House of Reps...
281
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,240
... mmm, Alex, that is
very, very difficult.
282
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,999
I'm prepared to leave the
government immediately.
283
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,039
You'll have the balance of power.
284
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,280
And you know we'll be voting on supply.
285
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,599
You know what, Alex? It's
suddenly become less difficult.
286
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,279
I think we can do something for you.
287
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:44,559
In fact, I'll promise you.
Such is my admiration for you.
288
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,040
But you've got to
promise me to tell no-one.
289
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,319
No-one.
290
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:51,600
That's our deal.
291
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,320
Morning, Damien. Must have that
chat if your door's still open.
292
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:16,959
Yeah, I understand, Keith.
293
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,239
You breach confidentiality,
you might lose your job.
294
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:20,799
But that didn't seem to bother you
295
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,640
when you started fucking
your boss, did it?
296
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,999
Yep. Macauley Detention Centre.
297
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:32,160
The detainee was a
teenager, Marcie Maclean.
298
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,040
Apparently, paramedics attended.
299
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,920
You know everyone up
there. Just figure it out.
300
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,200
Jonathan?
301
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,159
Thank you, Senator. You've
given us a lot to think about.
302
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,640
- Oh, pass on my regards to Rosemary.
- Will do. Thanks very much.
303
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:55,959
Fucking Mortensen.
304
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:57,639
Oh.
305
00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,359
- Thanks, mate.
- No problem.
306
00:19:59,360 --> 00:20:02,839
He's making ambit claims. He knows
Senator Irving's on the way out.
307
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,399
There are several in the party
308
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,679
who will welcome what
he's just proposed.
309
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,280
If we could ignore the
neo-fascist fuckwittery.
310
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,599
Cartwright's ministry signed
off on $450 million of work
311
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,439
to tenders last financial year.
312
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:17,679
To Exebuild?
313
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,359
Not directly. To a range of companies.
314
00:20:19,360 --> 00:20:21,079
But when I dug a little deeper,
315
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,559
I found a lot of them
were... shell companies.
316
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:27,439
Effectively 70% of the
tenders went to Exebuild.
317
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,199
So, what's Cartwright's
connection to this?
318
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,319
I haven't found one. He hasn't
declared a conflict of interest.
319
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,400
His office has been stonewalling me.
320
00:20:36,360 --> 00:20:38,279
- And guaranteed?
- Guaranteed.
321
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,119
All right. I can live with that.
322
00:20:40,120 --> 00:20:42,479
Well, that should give you Mortensen.
323
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,599
My bloc is going to support you.
There's no way Bauer can challenge.
324
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:46,999
I need to be sure of that.
325
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,760
As long as I'm here,
they're right behind you.
326
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,200
The PM wants to give you a lift home.
327
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,200
Sure.
328
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,159
- How are you feeling today?
- Better, thank you.
329
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,479
- How's your boy?
- Upset.
330
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:31,760
I bet.
331
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:37,239
You accused Kevin of some pretty
serious misconduct yesterday.
332
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:38,560
Do you believe it?
333
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:40,999
Yes.
334
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,000
- But you've got no proof?
- Not yet.
335
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:50,159
Now, I suppose you've heard about
this vigil for the dead girl...
336
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,119
He name was Jess.
337
00:21:52,120 --> 00:21:54,719
You're not planning on going, I hope?
338
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,359
No plans.
339
00:21:56,360 --> 00:21:57,720
But you should go.
340
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:00,720
You being there shows heart.
341
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,240
You can be the prime
minister that actually cares.
342
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,440
I won't be going, Alex,
and neither will you.
343
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:14,519
This time, it's a tinderbox
of self-righteous rage.
344
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,199
It's the end of reason.
You must feel it.
345
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,680
This splintering of us all into
our own angry little tribes.
346
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:23,679
Don't take this the wrong way,
347
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,319
but the last thing that
this country needs right now
348
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,240
is a Black Lives Matter moment.
349
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:34,520
Here we are.
350
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:37,880
Thank you for the lift, Prime Minister.
351
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,279
Hi. Miriam Baker from the Gazette.
352
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,919
I'd like to ask if anyone
here knew Jess Clarke.
353
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,519
Does she have any family here tonight...
354
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,840
This is a silent vigil.
Please show some respect.
355
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,559
Senator, does the Prime Minister
know that you're here tonight?
356
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:48,079
Do you have approval from
the Prime Minister to be here?
357
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,519
How do you feel about...
358
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,399
- What would you say to the family?
- There's no questions.
359
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,919
But will you support
calls for an inquiry?
360
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,440
It's not the time or place.
Just have some respect.
361
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,240
I'm sorry I couldn't keep her safe.
362
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,439
I said I would, but I couldn't.
363
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,200
I should have let you in.
364
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,399
When you come to see her.
365
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,520
Whoever's to blame, it's not you.
366
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:49,560
The police are here.
367
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:52,920
Why are they here?
368
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,279
Here. Take this.
369
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:57,639
She was just a kid.
370
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,319
- People need to know.
- OK, go.
371
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,119
Excuse me. Excuse me, please. Excuse me.
372
00:25:01,120 --> 00:25:02,760
Shame on you!
373
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,679
Senator Irving, Sergeant Peta
Randall, Australian Federal Police.
374
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,679
- You need to come with me now.
- What's this about, Sergeant?
375
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,839
Ma'am, we have received credible
threats against your person.
376
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:13,919
- You're just trying to shut her up.
- Sergeant...
377
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:15,320
We need to go now.
378
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,440
- Remember Kalgoorlie!
- Yeah, remember Jess Clarke!
379
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:27,799
- Thank you, ma'am.
- Sergeant.
380
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,159
We've received intelligence
381
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,799
that an organisation called
the Patriots Defence Union
382
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,839
are planning to disrupt the vigil.
383
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,599
Were there specific threats made?
384
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,759
Yes, ma'am.
385
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,600
Towards yourself...
and towards your son.
386
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,479
I have a friend who works
at the Katherine hospital.
387
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,000
He's mates with a bunch
of the local paramedics.
388
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,359
Jesus, Jonathan.
389
00:26:00,360 --> 00:26:02,719
One of which is a
woman who's pretty sure
390
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:07,919
she detected tear gas on the
clothes of the detainee who died.
391
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,119
She's since been stood down.
392
00:26:10,120 --> 00:26:11,599
The report's gone.
393
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,440
There's nothing I can do.
394
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,719
The girl was 15, Christopher.
395
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,360
- I already feel shit enough as it is.
- I know.
396
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,440
Jonathan. Please...
397
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,839
I'm really sorry I couldn't
get into that girl's phone.
398
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,839
That's all right, bub.
Don't worry about that.
399
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,519
It's OK. Come on. Sleep.
400
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:47,840
Yeah, sure.
401
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:50,679
Yeah, yeah, copy that. Yeah.
402
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,479
Do you have to stand
so close to the door?
403
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,040
- Turn your radios down.
- Oh. Sorry, Mr Irving.
404
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:08,799
I want you to take Eddie home.
405
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,719
- To Winton?
- He'll be safe there.
406
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,679
- And what about you?
- No, don't worry about me.
407
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,200
I'll stay here. I've got to.
408
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,279
I told Laurie Martin
that I'd cross the aisle.
409
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,239
What? Why? He's as bad as she is.
410
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:22,959
I know.
411
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,919
But I can't just let
all this go. Not now.
412
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,800
Not ever, knowing you.
413
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,440
Yeah. I'll keep him out of trouble.
414
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,679
Today will prove to be a critical one
415
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,759
in Prime Minister Rachel
Anderson's hopes for re-election.
416
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,039
The Coalition supply bill is
due to return to the Senate,
417
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,759
whilst the Prime Minister
faces another day of fireworks
418
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,239
in the House of Representatives.
419
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,159
These so-called champions
of women think that it's OK
420
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,879
to tell a woman to shut
up on the House floor!
421
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,759
That's it's OK to tell the
prime minister of our nation
422
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,319
to shut up!
423
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,159
Well, I won't shut up.
424
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,159
I will defend myself and I
will defend my government!
425
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,519
Hear, hear!
426
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,479
At the centre of the storm
is Senator Alex Irving.
427
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,519
While on the outer with the party,
428
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,840
Irving remains a critical
cog in the balance of power.
429
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,360
Go on, girl! Get amongst it!
430
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,400
Whoo-hoo!
431
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,319
Senator.
432
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:20,800
Tracey?
433
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,319
Morning. The PM's Office
has been calling you.
434
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:26,879
How'd you go?
435
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,359
Oh. OK. Look, not a lot.
436
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:33,959
Uh, I found home addresses,
charge sheets, date of birth...
437
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,440
Can you pull up a photo of Jess
from Marcie's Facebook page?
438
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:40,280
There she is.
439
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,480
I got this photo from her friend.
440
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,359
OK, see that?
441
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:47,799
Yeah.
442
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,079
That's new. So, I'm looking
for anything with 19.
443
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:55,599
OK. Well, Jess's date of
birth is 3 December 2004.
444
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:59,999
- Marcie?
- Uh, 16 November 2004.
445
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,960
None of these other
numbers have a 19 in them.
446
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,400
What date did Marcie die?
447
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,079
16 February 2019.
448
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,520
- Whose is that?
- Jess's.
449
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,440
And you had it all this time?
450
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,919
I'm urging you in the strongest
possible terms, Senator.
451
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:35,559
You need to keep this to yourself.
452
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,079
Alex, I asked you not to
go to that bloody vigil.
453
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,439
Are you even capable of self-control?
454
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,439
This is the proof you wanted.
455
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,639
This is footage from
Jess Clarke's phone.
456
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,159
She took a video of her best
friend Marcie Maclean when she died.
457
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,960
- Prime Minister, I...
- No, Peter. It's... it's OK.
458
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,119
All right, Maclean. Suck on this!
459
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,679
- Are you OK?
- I can't breathe!
460
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,199
Grab my puffer!
461
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,359
Help! Somebody help!
462
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,839
Help me!
463
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,800
Help! Somebody help!
464
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,439
Someone! She can't breathe!
465
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,079
Help us!
466
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,519
Somebody help! She can't breathe!
467
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,599
Marce!
468
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,200
Marce.
469
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,120
Come on!
470
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,239
Marce.
471
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:36,560
Please, Marcie.
472
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:39,000
Marcie.
473
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:41,400
Marce?
474
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,880
Oh, God. Those poor girls.
475
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:52,960
You know we can't use this.
476
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,239
It's terrible, I know, but
we can't use it. Not yet.
477
00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,199
But this is proof.
478
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,599
Alex, wake up.
479
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,159
This won't just take down
Kevin. It'll take us all.
480
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,399
We need to stay focused
on winning this election,
481
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:06,919
then I promise you, Kevin will be gone
482
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,639
and I will get justice for your girls.
483
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,520
No. I can't accept that.
484
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,279
What do you want?
485
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,800
Is this what we're doing?
486
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:21,440
Yeah.
487
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,159
You know what I want.
488
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,319
It was in the deal with
the native title holders.
489
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,839
Alex, I don't have a chance in hell
of getting your deal through now,
490
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,879
so let's just pretend that
we live in the real world.
491
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:36,999
Just for five fucking minutes.
492
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,960
What do you want?
493
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:44,360
I want you to announce your support
for the deal in the House of Reps.
494
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:47,679
You'll say that you'll
keep on working on it
495
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,799
until you get an agreement.
496
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:51,560
And you do it this afternoon.
497
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,839
I would have to use this against Kevin.
498
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:02,559
Well, you can both make a nice
little speech about reconciliation.
499
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,919
And you guarantee the
footage won't be seen?
500
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:06,280
Yes.
501
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,040
Yeah, all right.
502
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,239
- We still alive?
- Just.
503
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:29,519
What shall I tell Kevin?
504
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,399
Nothing yet. Have we
heard from Mortensen?
505
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:32,960
- No.
- Fuck!
506
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:36,959
All right.
507
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:38,959
Get me the long form on her Winton deal.
508
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,199
Just give me five minutes and
then bring in my nine o'clock.
509
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:42,760
Sure.
510
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:50,600
Jonathan. A word?
511
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,839
I'm sorry.
512
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:07,760
You didn't deserve
the way I treated you.
513
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:12,559
Thank you.
514
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,120
But you need to resign.
515
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:18,799
I know you're ambitious.
516
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:20,959
I know the party regards you.
517
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,640
But if you stay with me, you
can kiss all of that goodbye.
518
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:27,839
I can't go into details.
519
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:32,239
But if you stay with me, your
career in the party will be over.
520
00:34:32,240 --> 00:34:34,639
So you either resign or I sack you.
521
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:36,319
For your own good.
522
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,480
This is gonna blow up. Today.
523
00:34:50,240 --> 00:34:53,440
My friend in Cartwright's office...
524
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,879
... confirmed that initial
reports into Marcie Maclean's death
525
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,359
point to operational negligence
and individual cruelty.
526
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,840
You were right. Cartwright buried
the reports and lied to parliament.
527
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:08,719
Why?
528
00:35:08,720 --> 00:35:11,359
Well, it comes down to Exebuild.
529
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:14,639
They built and manage the
Macauley Detention Centre.
530
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,159
They also secured the tender
to build the base in Winton,
531
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:18,839
which is surprising,
532
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,799
because the department
selected another company.
533
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,239
Now, Cartwright has
never officially declared
534
00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:26,519
his financial interests in the company,
535
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:28,399
but I gained access to his records,
536
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,759
and every time Exebuild or
one of its shell companies
537
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,519
is awarded a tender,
538
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:37,639
money gets paid into an
entity called KAPC Holdings
539
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:39,679
operating out of the Caymans.
540
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,319
KAPC?
541
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,240
The initials of his wife and kids.
542
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:50,439
So he blocked the deal
543
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:54,039
because the native title holders
had veto over the tender process
544
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,119
and if they didn't go with
Exebuild, he'd get nothing?
545
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:58,679
Correct.
546
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,239
Do you think the PM knows?
547
00:36:00,240 --> 00:36:01,959
There's no evidence she does,
548
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,520
but she needs him to keep her
job and to keep the wolves at bay.
549
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,839
- You can prove all this?
- I have the paper trail.
550
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,759
This could damage your
friend when it comes out.
551
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:17,880
I know that. And so does he.
552
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:28,960
Why are you backing
me and not the party?
553
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,640
Well, as you said... I'm very ambitious.
554
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,479
How far do you want to go with this?
555
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:38,960
As far as I can.
556
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:42,840
Jonathan.
557
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:49,799
The Prime Minister promised
558
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,559
to renew her support for
the Winton deal in parliament
559
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,559
in return for suppression of the footage
560
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,319
that proves that Cartwright lied.
561
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:57,840
Do you believe her?
562
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:00,559
That's the Senate agenda.
563
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,879
I'm just finishing my
notes for the Winton deal.
564
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:04,679
The House sits in 10 minutes.
565
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:06,600
- Have you seen Peter?
- No, ma'am.
566
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,399
I need you outside the House chamber.
567
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,120
Text me if she commits
to reopening the deal.
568
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:30,759
Do we expect her to?
569
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:32,240
Unlikely.
570
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:37,560
Are you OK?
571
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:10,879
Ladies and gentlemen of the Senate,
572
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:14,639
regarding Supply Bill No. 3
for the current financial year.
573
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:16,759
Following the third and final reading,
574
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:20,319
I believe Senator Mortensen
wishes to make a brief statement.
575
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:25,239
I've previously vowed to
block supply, as you all know.
576
00:38:25,240 --> 00:38:27,439
Well, I'm reversing that decision today.
577
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,399
But I will hold this
government to account.
578
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:32,999
I don't like this government.
579
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,879
However, I recognise
their mandate to govern,
580
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,879
and they're a damn sight better
than the rabble across the aisle.
581
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,519
So, yes, I will support this bill.
582
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,479
Order!
583
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,479
Lydia Morrison has been
584
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,879
an esteemed, conscientious
member of the parliamentary staff,
585
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,719
having performed numerous
vital and unheralded roles
586
00:38:53,720 --> 00:38:57,159
over no less than six
successive parliaments.
587
00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:01,359
Her sense of history and
decorum will be sorely missed.
588
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,719
We hope she enjoys her
well-earned retirement.
589
00:39:03,720 --> 00:39:05,320
Hear, hear!
590
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,359
Prime Minister, any business to table?
591
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,440
No, Mr Speaker. Nothing further.
592
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,359
Moving on, we have a number
of items before us today,
593
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:17,679
but before we...
594
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:21,399
The division requires the bells
ring for a period of one minute
595
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:25,199
and the house will vote
on Supply Bill No. 3.
596
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:00,959
Does Senator Irving
wish to make a statement?
597
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:02,679
I do, Mr President.
598
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:03,959
Senator Irving.
599
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,599
Mr President, it has
come to my attention
600
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:11,079
that the Prime Minister is
covering up a very serious crime
601
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:13,839
committed by one of her own ministers.
602
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,999
- Shut up, you idiot!
- I can no longer support her.
603
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:20,599
Therefore, I'm withdrawing
my support for this bill...
604
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:21,799
Shame on you!
605
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,359
... and of the
government that she leads.
606
00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,800
Traitor!
607
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:34,040
You're a disgrace!
608
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:43,800
Order!
609
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,680
The house will come to order!
610
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,280
Order! Order!
611
00:40:52,720 --> 00:40:56,079
That's 36 for the ayes, 40 for the noes.
612
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,319
The noes have it.
613
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,680
Supply Bill No. 3 has been defeated.
614
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:05,879
And when the public sees
members checking their phones,
615
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:09,439
like I'm seeing over
there and over here,
616
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:12,239
it diminishes faith in
the parliament as a whole,
617
00:41:12,240 --> 00:41:15,199
and in particular, the
House of Representatives.
618
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,519
Sit down, Laurie. You're
showing up your comrades.
619
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:20,999
I call upon the Honourable
the Leader of the Opposition.
620
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:22,359
Thank you, Mr Speaker.
621
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,359
My question is addressed
to the Prime Minister,
622
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,519
and it comes in two parts.
623
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,839
Firstly, when will the Prime
Minister call an election?
624
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:33,479
When it doesn't look like I'm
beating up on old men, Laurie.
625
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,639
Order.
626
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:38,759
Secondly... is the Prime Minister aware
627
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:43,639
that moments ago, her supply
bill was voted down in the Senate?
628
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:44,959
Rubbish!
629
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,759
And, Mr Speaker, that a
senator from her own party
630
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:49,679
has accused this prime minister
631
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,639
of covering up corruption
by a cabinet minister?!
632
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,479
Sit down and die of shame, Laurie!
633
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,879
Mr Speaker, I ask that the
Leader of the Opposition
634
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,919
immediately withdraw
that unsubstantiated slur!
635
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:02,479
Mr Speaker, the same senator
636
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,799
has now withdrawn support
for this government.
637
00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:09,519
The Prime Minister cannot govern.
She cannot even lead her own team.
638
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:14,759
Therefore, Mr Speaker, I am calling
for a motion of no confidence!
639
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,559
- Oh, rubbish!
- Order!
640
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,999
Jesus Christ! What the hell happened?
641
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,399
Mr Speaker, I am appalled.
642
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,399
This is nothing but a dummy
spit by an entitled kid
643
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,199
who can't stop throwing
his toys out of the cot!
644
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:29,919
- So I ask again, Mr Speaker...
- Order!
645
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:33,159
... that this howling hypocrite
of mediocrity sitting opposite me
646
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:37,999
find just a skerrick of character,
withdraw his unsubstantiated comment
647
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:39,479
and apologise immediately.
648
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:43,960
But who voted with the senator?
649
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:47,160
Bauer's men?
650
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:51,799
- I have the confidence of my party...
- Oh, Jesus Christ.
651
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:53,159
... I have the confidence of the House
652
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,719
and I have the confidence
of the Australian people!
653
00:42:55,720 --> 00:42:59,319
Mr Speaker, this is a disruption
of our parliamentary process.
654
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,599
It's nothing short of a hostile
takeover of our democracy!
655
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:04,079
Sit down! Sit down!
656
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:05,959
The Prime Minister will resume her seat.
657
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:07,679
Regarding the motion of no confidence
658
00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:09,879
tabled by the Honourable
Leader of the Opposition,
659
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:11,719
the chamber will divide.
660
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,120
Ayes to my left, noes to my right.
661
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:34,360
You fucking cunt.
662
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:04,479
Ayes, 76.
663
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:06,679
Noes, 74.
664
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:09,360
The ayes have it.
665
00:44:37,720 --> 00:44:39,399
Sorry, Peter.
666
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:41,360
Me too.
667
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,600
Prime Minister, I am so sorry. I...
668
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:16,719
It's a bitter and embarrassing end
669
00:45:16,720 --> 00:45:19,119
to the prime ministership
that promised so much
670
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,079
but in the end delivered little.
671
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:24,959
Rachel Anderson has presented
herself as a champion of the centre
672
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:28,079
in a party that was turning
progressively to the right,
673
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,559
and for a while, it seemed
that voters had embraced this.
674
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,199
Will another member of the
party seek the leadership
675
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,479
and attempt to win the
support of the House,
676
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,839
or will the now ex-prime minister
advise the Governor-General
677
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:41,559
to call an election?
678
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:43,319
Whatever happens from here,
679
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:46,239
it's clear that Rachel Anderson's
tenure as prime minister
680
00:45:46,240 --> 00:45:48,879
has ended in shame and humiliation.
681
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,120
Senator Alex Irving.
682
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:06,400
Are you just gonna stand there?
683
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:12,200
Scotch?
684
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:22,720
Peter was right. You
really are a black bitch.
685
00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:30,239
You know, Alex, it's taken us 100 years
686
00:46:30,240 --> 00:46:32,679
to get a party system that works.
687
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:35,519
All you see is shit and corruption.
688
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,360
Lies and compromise.
689
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:44,079
But you know what? That
is how democracy works.
690
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,799
It's not perfect, but it's
a thousand times better
691
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:48,399
than anything we've ever come up with,
692
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:49,759
because it's contained.
693
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,319
It is contained by
precedent and procedures
694
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,039
and tiny, unbreakable
threads of goodwill
695
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:56,680
that just sort of make it work.
696
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,199
There's one thing this
system can't survive,
697
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:05,919
and it's people like you.
698
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,359
People who can't accept that
the world isn't with them
699
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:09,999
because they're afraid of selling out.
700
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,799
Because you people don't
actually believe in democracy,
701
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:16,519
just your own miserable virtue and
the purity of some fucking position.
702
00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,039
And if we were all like that, Alex,
703
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,200
we would have fascism by the weekend.
704
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:23,480
Are you finished?
705
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,080
You don't get to lecture
me anymore, Rachel.
706
00:47:30,240 --> 00:47:32,559
So much for the sisterhood.
707
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,160
You're a sister when it suits you.
708
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:36,440
Huh!
709
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,200
Enjoy my office, Alex.
710
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:50,839
I'm sure he's promised
you unicorns and rainbows,
711
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:54,480
but in the end, when the
dust settles, you'll see...
712
00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:58,360
... it was just fucking revenge.
713
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:41,960
