- Reaction To Clarke and Dawe on BREXIT
This is my reaction to Clarke and Dawe - Thank God it couldn’t happen here
In this video I react to Australian comedy from Australian satire and comedy artists Clarke & Dawe and their satire about Brexit and Australian politics and politicians.
Original Video - • Clarke and Dawe - Than...
This was about the Turnbill / Scott Morrison leadership spill. Malcolm was a centrist, wealthy, and was mentioned in the Panama papers.
...and the referendum I think
He was also refused membership to the Labor party so he joined the Liberals.
@@planetcountryradio8622 Inasmuch as when he was head of the Australian Republican Movement, John Della Bosca and Bob Carr approached him to stand for preselection as a Labor candidate, and he turned them down, ….
John Clarke died in April 2017 so this is even cleverer.
@@francistaylor1822 It was the Marriage-Equality plebiscite, which the conservatives of the Liberal/National coalition forced on Turnbull, on the assumption that it would scuttle gay rights. However, it backfired and most Aussies voted for equality. As you'd expect, those same conservatives that fought for the plebiscite still voted against it in Parliament but the law was passed anyway.
Tell me about Scott Morrison’s good points!? Ha, that’s also comedy gold!
I would tell you, if I had 5 seconds to spare.🤬
We miss his genius. RIP John - If you can get your hands on it, they had a great series called 'The Games' about the Sydney 2000 Olympics. Even the IOC saw the funny side to it.
Great program, especially the discussion on the fact the running track was too short.
@@johnhiggins6984 Maaaate! I ventured down here to mention that!
In my memory, that episode aired some time BEFORE the news broke that the track at Homebush was somewhat short...
Now I need to try and find out IIRC or if I'm getting forgetful in my dotage.
Clarkey was a true treasure and another great Kiwi I'm happy we laid claim to.
He left a hole when he left us.
I can summarise Scott Morrisons good points for you:
.
There, someone do his bad points please - I only have a few weeks leave and not enough time to compile
I’m currently unemployed and have plenty of time on my hands. But I still don’t have enough time to compile his bad points.
SO bloody funny! 😄😄I echo those thoughts
I asked chat GPT to list Scomo’s bad points. It replied “ I’m sorry I don’t have the time to do that. “
😄😄😄😄
@@warwickofnorwich When Scotty from Marketing finally returned to the country He supposedly led during the nationwide bushfires. He was on holiday in Hawaii with leaders from Hillsong evangelical church and a leader of the Q conspiracy cult, (commonly known as Black Summer, instead of the more localised Black Wednesday these fires burnt out millions of ha and thousands of homes over a 6 month period) he confronted a tired out firefighter who refused to shake his hand. Scotty then Forced a handshake on him, assault. A second encounter with a woman who's town had been burnt out, and possibly her own home lost, got similar treatment, he ignored her pleas for Prime-ministerial help, ignored her and then forced his handshake on her, another assault, he should have been charged by the police for these assaults. The best was the exhausted firefighter driving the Nelligen Truck who accosted the media and told Scott Morrison to go get fucked. 50m up the road he stopped and fell out of his truck exhausted onto the ground. Summing up with "I Don't hold a Hose mate" Scott Morrison PM.
Also exploring the parallels between parliamentarians in UK and Australia - being egomaniacal, short-sighted and fundamentally more concerned with the middle aged rich boys club than with genuine policy or governance appears be common to politicians as a 'species'.
Poor people can't afford to stand for election. The ultra-rich can just bribe politicians - sorry, "give campaign contributions" to get what they want. Since most seats (in Australia at least) are "safe" in that they don't change from election to election, most politicians are incentivised to follow the party line rather than what their electorate is telling them, and the party mostly hears from special interest groups and lobbyists... which represent the people paying their bills. Swing seats can change from election to election, ergo no job security, ergo the people who stand for election in them are already financially well-off.
The result is that the pollies never hear about the opinions of the poor, most of the opinions they hear are from relatively extremist viewpoints, and the pollies themselves tend to be at minimum upper middle class.
Sometimes I think we would be better served by just picking a random person from each electorate. Now THAT would be a representative democracy.
Westminster adversarial system + donors + lobbyists ends up selecting unprincipled, self-serving parasites as politicians..
Scott Morrison lied and lied and lied, whilst pretending to be an upstanding religious type. Kinda like Trump 🤢
Very much like Trump. Pathetic, power-hungry moron who had no empathy. People in his own party described him as a psychopath. Talk about stating the obvious.
Being religious should have been the first Clue
What did Trump Lie about??
@@brianross4057You must be trolling, but in case anyone wants to check, Politifact is a good source for fact-checking claims made by elected officials and candidates
@@brianross4057 derp
Both have played evil characters in Aussie comedy movies. Gold.
I had to do some digging to figure out the context and I’m an Aussie. We had a Scott (Morrison) problem for quite a while and quite a few Prime Ministers who made stupid calls that were being backstabbed by the right wing of the party lol
Malcolm Turnbull (very rich, portrayed as out of touch in media) was PM. He basically forced an election called a double dissolution (where both house of reps and all senators are up for reelection, instead of just half the senate) by putting legislation to the senate that he knew wouldn’t pass, if that happens three times within 6 months (or something like that) it forces an early full election. He was basically being hounded by other members of the party, from the right, and took a gamble that his party would be reelected with a larger majority which would put an end to leadership scrabbling. They retained power, but at a lower margin. And he risked a bunch of senators jobs in the process. So he wasn’t very popular. Although he didn’t get overturned as leader until 2018 when they managed to make Scott Morrison the leader kind of accidentally. Turnbull also promised during that election campaign that if they won they would hold a same sex marriage plebiscite (which happened the following year and hence is legal in Australia now). This was pretty unpopular within his party also.
@@littleflick unsurprisingly, clarke/dawe had a sketch that puts the whole nonsense into perspective:
ruclips.net/video/-LgswD4QveU/видео.html
That opening theme music gets me every time.....
Malcolm Turnbull PM perfectly described is PM. Having knifed previous PM Abbott in a leadership spill over his long streak of unfavourable ratings, Turnbull found himself in the same boat & at the same time at odds with the crazy right wing of the party over the actual existence of climate change. He was challenged for the leadership by the current leader of the opposition & he won the challenge marginally. The party insisted on a 2nd vote & Turnbull said fine. In the next couple of hours Scott Morrison, Malcolm’s “loyal” treasurer gathered up all the loonies got the numbers & won the spill, taking over the PM slot just 5 months prior to the end of Turnbull’s term. Also similar to the UK we had 3 different PM’s in 9 years & also 3 changes of deputy leader just to take it up a notch.
Macca’s had a Scott problem.
Supposedly 😂
To be fairer than I'd like to Scotty From Marketing, Maccas gives me the shits too.
Our main commonality is Murdoch. This UK election had the Tories seek help from our LNP and Labour followed our Labor platform of "'we aren't them".
Murdoch the blackmailer. If you didn't give him what he wanted he would use his media against you. He is a psychopath.
100% this.
I sound like a conspiracy theorist I know, but the murdoch effect globally is no joke.
I am waiting for the day the internet tin foil brigade finally grows a molecule of insight and starts digging into this very real conspiracy of influence.
Totally agree. It's not a conspiracy but fact. Murdoch is the biggest media owner in Australia and uses his influence to get whatever he wants. Politicians cave into his demands because they know if they don't he will run a media campaign against them. Interesting fact. As soon as Labor was elected Murdoch and his media mates at Channel 7 began their campaign for the Liberal Party criticizing Albanese as an unfit leader before they even began implementing their policies. Before the election the Liberals said they supported the Voice to Parliament and then did an about face and attacked it as a means to claim that Albanese was a weak leader, saying that it would divide the nation' as Dutton and his goons set about deliberately dividing the nation. Dutton is a Trump clone and Murdoch is supporting him.
@@kennethdodemaide8678 yeah, there's no conspiracy here. murdoch openly said in a public interview that he would use his media influence to advocate for his political positions. he obviously did just that, and continues to do so. all out in the open
the only meaningful questions are why the response was insufficient, and what the future responses should be
Scott Morrison was opportunism wrapped in messianic, religious fervour. Someone devoid of curiosity about the world around him.
Voltaire, couldn't have shaken it out better!😅🇬🇧🤪
Google "Scott Morrison McDonald's" 😅🤣😂
The issues in Australia at the time were Same Sex Marriage and action on Climate Change.
Religious conservative and/or opportunist within his Party were blocking any action on these issues.
Turnbull proposed a plebiscite on SSM which fortunately passed, but all that did was consolidate opposition within his Party around Climate Change.
Climate change is the only farce that is a threat to the future generations. And not the climate change part, which is largely overblown completely according to the IPCC, but moronic policies that seem to be repeated in the EU and UK with nitrogen bans and solar/wind support
John Clarke was a kiwi born and bred.
And then he was given the gift of our great Aussie tradition of claiming Kiwis as our own, until and unless they start throwing telephones at people.
Our systems are almost the same in Australia as in England. Westminster, King the head of state blah blah ha ha ha 🍕🍕💩
I thought he meant the No Vote in Australia. Our last 4 PM’s have sucked. Australia is in a big mess and so many are not seeing it.
The Scott problem was a big one
Yeah that Denise Scott hasn't gone away... even after the new Mother and Son 🤦♂😏
Yes Jimmy things were so similar.
So very clever. The difference between the UK and Australia is that Oz is 'the Lucky Country' due to it's huge natural resources, which the world needs and Aussie miners are happy to dig up. As long as they last, the economy will probably do quite well and the sovereign Future Fund will hopefully grow. The UK on the other hand, had the natural resources of oil and gas in the North Sea and proceeded to let the big multinationals make zillions of pounds profit while the governments of the day spent whatever windfalls came their way. End result - the UK is broke. Contrast the UK with how Norway handled the North Sea bonanza . . .
It would be helpful, to Australians at least, to say (or put in the video comments) the date of original broadcast. Knowing there were two wannabe leaders of the Liberal Party sabotaging each other to hold/gain the leadership hardly narrows down the potential time period at all.
I guess the point of the bit is that its a cookie cutter situation that has happened a few times and in a few places.
Those Australians....It started with pavlova, then Phar Lap the race horse, then they stole Crowded House...John Clark was a New Zealander not an Australian. That's a Kiwi accent not an Australian accent.😄
Well, we have Labor MP's & Senators who are related to, or know, some working-class people.....
Could be about so many countries
Like you we have a HUGE housing crisis thanks to an immigration rate of 2,000 PER DAY. Mostly rich Indians. So our kids' futures are stuffed
John Clarke was great - I would recommend The Fred Dagg tapes. He did these while still in New Zealand. Hillarious - better than what you are seeing here
ScoMo is the minister of the comment section.
The country may be different but the song remains the same.
Sadly, I am distantly related to Scomo 😢 Wondered if 'Scott problem' was a bit of a pun? ie 'Scot'...Scottish?
You're related to Scummo? My condolences 😅
Omg - how embarrassing for you! Condolences.
100%
Unfortunately, we can't chose our blood relatives.
Turnbull killed his girlfriends cat..
Scott Morrison had no good points,he was just a compulsive liar
Scott Morrison makes Trump and Bo Jo look like geniuses. Maybe not but he was just as bad.
Really didn't need to watch you nodding your head, while Clarke and Dawe's video gets reduced to a quarter of the screen. IMO.
It's a reaction video! Watch Clarke and Dawe if you don't want to see someone reacting to Clarke and Dawe.
Farage needs to be PM😊
As if brevity wasn't bad enough😂😂😂😂 or are you just pulling our leg?
You joker !
Yeah you don’t get the context do you pal?
That's why he's asking for comment because he is not an Aussie and does not live in Australia. From what I've seen and heard from the reactor, in many videos, he is an intelligent man.
