pay attention to it or care about it.

Politician's

answer.

Sounds like a guy that liked people liking

there are very clear efforts, or that it is really publicly stated in the newspapers, that we should switch to armaments products in order to transform the dwindling automotive production that we have into an armaments industry.

What more to say? I guess what it shows me is that 75, 80 years after World War II, the German Politiker act with sheepish submissiveness.

What you have just seen is the trailer for North Stream The Sabotage, a new documentary by my guest today, Moritz Enders, and his colleague Günther Merz.

The film goes back to the night of 26 September 2022.

realtors across the state of Florida that all come together to say, hey, Mr.

Politician, this is exactly what our homeowners are feeling.

This is what we need from you.

Would you please help us?

Would you be willing to get behind something like that? And that's really, you know, people a lot of times don't understand the amount of work that goes into something like that and the influence that we could have as a collective.

We've got 238,000 realtors across the state of Florida that all come together to say, hey, Mr.

Politician, this is exactly what our homeowners are feeling.

This is what we need from you.

That's exactly right.

And also for politicians from minority backgrounds.

Yes.

Of course, we saw that just, I mean, it was chilling, was it not? That just, what, four days before the alleged attack on Helen Haynes, Labour frontbencher Anne Ali said, came out and said that over the course of, what, a day or two, since she had had a certain bit of strident parliamentary rhetoric levelled against her, she herself had received 19 online threats.

You call that person a despot.

You call that person, in some circumstances, even a fascist.

This goes back to, again, one of the conversations we've been having for the last 18 months about my own reticence about the use of the term or anything resembling the term fascist to describe... one's opponents within a democratic system because if you really are confronted with a fascist then there is a certain moral obligation or a democratic obligation that goes along with that in the form of resistance against injustice and Tyranny in other words the term fascist itself brings with it a kind of legitimation of certain forms of political violence the whole thing about legitimacy is You know, we politicians do pass in and out of legitimacy, but they don't pass in and out of humanity.

And they don't pass in and out of the protections that are afforded to certain protected offices.

It is unbelievable that these two parties, the Greens and the Maori Party, are taking turns digging this hole even deeper for themselves.

Right, on the front bench with me, we have Barry Soper, Senior Political Correspondent, Trish Sherson of Sherson Willis PR, and Joseph O'Garney, Child Fund Chief Executive.

Hello, you three.

Oh, good afternoon.

Cool.

A fun game, which is called Guess The Band/Guess The Politician.

[laughs]

More details to follow.

Never has been played before.

In ever.

It's called Guess the Politician slash Guess the Band.

Okay.
