Martyn Bradbury

And suddenly they came in...

Martin Bradbury style, Mark Bradbury style, sorry, and get through to the end and where everybody else fell over and got that minor premiership.

This would be earned and it would be deserved.

That said, I don't care if the Warriors finish first or second.

... and lost your way?

Yeah, I think it was Martin Bradbury who said, uh, "Pe- the poor people are not sitting around the kitchen table debating who to cancel for misusing pronouns."

Yeah, so there is that debate.

W- increasingly on the left, there's a lot of debate around what you might call political correctness or, or woke politics or policing of, you know, of, of language.

And, um, a- and there's b- some important, you know, debates going on there in terms of racism, sexism, uh, sexuality.

And I think the likes of, um, of Martin Bradbury, uh, and many others on the left would say that the pendulum has sort of swung too far in that direction, and that the left has gone from being maybe too focused on wages to being too focused on social issues and, um, yeah, the correct pronouns.

And perhaps it's time to rebalance that, and maybe the parties of the left, if they got back to a, a bit more of a balance, that they would actually do better in elections.

Annie was using the Harmful Digital Communications Act to remove some offensive posts.

But people have said, well, that's hypocritical if you're into free speech.

Now, just before I, and Nick, I'm going to come to you first, given that you work for Pilla and that's all about free speech.

So you think and breathe this all day.

I do just want to show you just a couple of posts that Martin Bradbury puts up on his blog, just to give it context.

Because what I'm concerned about this case is that everybody is commenting that But nobody has actually, as far as I know, unless any of you on the panel have, have seen the offensive posts that were being asked to be pulled down.

... as being a potential way that they would go

And I think Bomber has also ...

Uh, I think Bomber's also asking at times if they're not-

Yeah, Bomber might have been the first person to mention it that I remember.

Yeah, the overhang vote strategically or, yeah, work strategically, I guess.

Um-

newspaper clippings or binders whatever and i was showing him that emma and mcpink took a picture of me looking at the truth things and then i can't remember what it was that i pasted and then chris responded with some response i need to retweet it out unusual image of damien grant engaging with the truth so he took he secretly took the image kept it and then waited for an appropriate time to use it.

He was a regular on the different podcasts of Working Group with Martin Bradbury and I, and he was always funny and he was willing to engage.

And as you said, he understood his portfolios We don't know exactly what happened that led up to yesterday, but I'm absolutely certain that when it comes out, Hank's behaviour will be one that was driven by...

Probably.
