Rupert scams his kids | Scam of the Week

Australians are getting very tired of the albanesi labor government says National Senator Bridget McKenzie according to Sky [Music] News well blow me over with a feather that is big news hold the pressers Bridget was also on ABC this week trying to wakeboard off the Paris Olympics hype to suggest that lovely green alternative nuclear look said Bridget they have it in Paris she didn't mention that France got into nuclear energy at the time of the Melbourne Olympics yes it was 1956 four or five decades before solo was invented or wind and yes there is still no costing for this Coalition non-policy policy but oh lamented Bridget how those nasty nasty people were poking fun at us for our nuclear policy now we wouldn't Dain to award the scam of the week this Noble Prize to Bridget although her Sports RS abuse of power and public money is certainly worthy it's a tad ancient now and of course Australia's Pro corruption commission The Knack won't be touching it it's too corrupt won't be touching anything corrupt but we do have good old rert Murdoch scamming not not only the world but also his own children this week we've got the plunge in the fertility rate which amazingly Peter Dutton didn't blame on labor well done Peter we've got PWC doing PWC stuff the things that they do these people and we've got resources Minister meline King forking out a bunch of new fossil fuel exploration licenses for multinational tax Dodgers and we've got finally tax reform Andrew Lee tax reform labors much promised much vaunted tax reforms to capture a few extra Pennies from the multi Nationals it may actually happen but cockroaches what do cockroaches have to do with that well one of our spies at the Senate hearing into Andrew Lee's reforms tells us that the business Lobby put up a small family company to cry poor about the impending multinational tax legislation it was called SC Johnson SC Johnson you may not know this we certainly didn't these are the guys who make Windex the stuff you spray on your windows wipe it down they make raage the Cockroach stuff the Cockroach baits and also duck the blue colored stuff you put in the toilet and a plastic sachche to clean your toilet consumer products well their man in CRA their man from America from Ohio in CRA told the Senators this week that the sky would fall all in and the world would end if these modest tax measures were brought in the usual stuff jobs Sovereign risk prices our man in camera Jason Ward quickly SED forth to the assic database to find out just how small and impoverished this tiny company SC Johnson was because SC Johnson had told the Gathering that Australia was just 1% of global Revenue prices would have to go up and jobs at stake the usual business crybaby Spiel however if the 76 million Jason found in the accounts that they made in Revenue here was in fact 1% of their Global Revenue then their Global revenues were 7.6 billion not too small and they pay barely any tax anyway according to the statutory filings so the guy was really overdoing it on the duck on the Wind deex spray and wipe but rer oh rer you wouldn't know it from the Australian which is making a lot of noise this week celebrating its 60-year anniversary the national broad sheet we used to work there for 8 years in fact you know there's pcks of Lan and Peter Dutton and albo and all the PO political royalty there celebrating the 60 years of the Australian splashed across the paper today with pics of Lan enjoying the rry they were and the story page one Splash said will it had Lan there making an impassion plea to we quote real journalism he appears to believe what he says Lan and why wouldn't he having spent a life getting in and out of limos and facing deadevil risks such as the possibility of spilling red one jeo on his silk tie he is totally in touch with the Common Man man anyways ruper is still plotting at age 93 to keep the rightwing nut job routine going to make all white men more angry and fight the eternal battle against that great enemy woke and wokeness he's trying to fiddle The Family Trust he's trying to control the kids beyond the grave the Family Trust which is irrevocable irrevocable it is apparently or maybe irrevocable just isn't as irrevocable as it used to be this irrevocable Family Trust was struck with his second wife Anna wife to three of the kids according to the New York Times and we hope their coverage is more reliable than their coverage of Gaza in late November 2023 according to a sealed Nevada Court Document acquired by the times rubber's lawyers filed a petition in Reno to change the irrevocable voting rules to give Lan Murdoch majority control of crude and financial services this is the trustee of the Murdoch Family Trust it's where the gold is held it's where it holds the Murdoch family holds the Murdoch fortunes us 15 billion of Disney stock Fox stock and newed Corp stock and Rupert wants to bequeath to Lan sole control of the family's investment in Fox The Wall Street Journal the New York Post the Australian Telly the Hun all the other assets which shape World opinion against wokeness including the sun and the Sunday and the times in the UK he scamming good old rert at 93 scamming the kids and the Ex-Wives as well as the rest of the world elsewhere it emerged the PWC boss Kevin Burrows the crisis manager was or we we know this thanks to the indefatigable Barbara pook Senator Barbara pook Kevin is actually paid $44 million not $2.2 million as previously advised crisis management is a rich profession and yes PWC and Rupert's editorial Pages were whining about proposals that Partnerships be limited to 100 Partners not a thousand the point being that the big four e Deo kbmg and PWC are Partnerships and why are they Partnerships because Partnerships unlike corporations are secret you don't have to disclose anything you don't have to file public financial statements it's a scam it's a secrecy scam and they love secrecy like the Cockroaches of the tax profession and there also this week was our resources Minister meline King this is her portfolio looking after resources she's not the environment minister to give her her J but against the advice of the AA which has always been funded by Cole and all other reputable International bodies which say we should have no new fossil fuel projects here was meline blly opening up furtively as well didn't make much of a fuss about this little old announcement a whole lot of new exploration territory she opened up for tax Dodgers such as Exxon and Chevron and Santos another 10 ccs projects that's carbon capture and storage where they say that we can capture the toxic emissions so they won't go into the atmosphere and create global warming only problem with ccs is it it doesn't work it's just a scam and a lot of it's funded by public subsidies too over at nine entertainment meanwhile which like news corporation is madly shedding jobs sacking real journalists keeping their talent that's their talking heads on but sacking the actual journalists well one of the nine Executives is running the torch relay in perie they were reporting at the SMH and age a baby recession yes the number of births in New South Wales has registered the biggest decline since the early 1980s as housing affordability and cost of living pressures discouraged people from having children there were 92,500 babies born across the state in 2023 down by 6,300 babies or 6.4% compared with the previous year the baby recession this was the biggest percentage decline since 1983 sta statistically it is a real thing since 1983 when Australia was recovering from a deep recession and on social media there they were they were busy speculating that the drop in babies might have been due to the covid vaccine Motes but we have to hand it to Peter Dutton and Susan Lee and Bridget and Rupert's mob who did not blame albo or immigrants or hammer for the failure of Australians to not have more babies but scam of the week must go to ruper who will indubitably be scamming until the grave we ordered to ruper this Majestic gong for dutting his own children in order to keep the right-wing nut jobbery going ad infinitum please like share and comment in the space below throw us a few bucks on patreon if you can afford it [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
