Speaker 4

Elbow you ready, yep.

Speaker 2

Donald Trump could soon announce tariffs on Ossie beef and drugs. Should we return, sir, with our own tariff?

Speaker 8

No, if we could. It is an active economic self harmed for tariffs on. It increases the cost where the tariffs are put on, so our products can still go to the US. If they put a tariff on, then the cost of the buyers, the person purchased the goods is increased.

Speaker 5

Es A great question, A very good ques Can I ask? Do you know what tariffs are?

Speaker 2

I could not tell you one thing.

Speaker 8

He said, you don't have to. As long as you can mark tackle and running you do?

Speaker 3

Any other questions, Nick?

Speaker 2

Do you think you're in the election?

Speaker 4

Oh?

Speaker 8

Yeah, I do, and the Hawks will win the flag?

Speaker 5

Big cool? How are you going on the campaign?

Speaker 8

Number fourteen on the way, that's it?

Speaker 5

Hey, going on the campaign trail?

Speaker 8

I'm going really well in Melbourne today, and I've been around just about every state and territory already, and today I'm out there advocating for a pay rise for low

paid workers. That's really important. Making a submission in for three million low paid workers, early childhood educators and cleaners and retail workers, those people on the minimum and award wages, and we will make a submission to the Fair Work Commission that they should provide an economically sustainable wage increase because we know people on low wages are doing it tough.

Absolutely they need to they need to do better, and will support that as we have in the three wage cases since we've come to office.

Speaker 1

I'm watching you out there on the road and trying to bring these issues up, and I'm thinking what we going to bed at the moment and getting up, Like when it's campaign mode, you'd be getting very little sleep.

Speaker 8

I'm getting to bed as early as I can. I've got to say. We talk about I try to get to bed by nine point thirty ten possible, and get up pretty early.

Speaker 3

Have you still stopped drinking Elbert four or five?

Speaker 7

Yeah?

Speaker 8

Yeah, so I'm pretty boring at the moment.

Speaker 3

Did you did you have it?

Speaker 6

Because last time we saw you it was your birthday on the weekend. Did you have a glass from the top shelf at least for your birthday?

Speaker 8

I did have a sneaky glass of wine birthday. That doesn't count.

Speaker 5

You didn't go hardcore like New Years Eve.

Speaker 8

Speaker 2

He didn't.

Speaker 3

You didn't have a drink after the Hawks one, the fourth in a row.

Speaker 8

No, I didn't, but I did. I have watched and they've been going, they've been going so well well, And I was at the last year. I was at the gaming camera up with I'm sorry to raise this, whiz, but I was at the game with g w S in camber when we're a mile ahead a three quarter time to motivate you.

Speaker 4

So it never.

Speaker 2

Happened again on the weekend.

Speaker 8

Because I was outside the room when Sam Mitchell was having a polite but firm discussion as well.

Speaker 7

Yeah, he is there something in the in the policy sphere that you want from your Prime Minister? Is there anything that will win your vote? What's what issues are important to you?

Speaker 2

Well, I want to ask one more question when you come to the next Hawks game.

Speaker 8

Oh well, but the Port game, I'm a show of making it to the gather round. I was a bit better melanowskis yesterday in Adelaide, and it's a game versus Port, which is each team of course, And he was like, you got to you got to drop in to gather around, so I'll see whether that can happen. But the data sta proposition at this stage.

Speaker 6

We're going together and we can see if there's a seat on the plane with us, you could come and sit next to Jason.

Speaker 4

Are we there yet?

Speaker 7

I wish on anyone am just very quickly that Victoria and Melbourne is going to be a bit of a battleground this election. How have you been received with the premiere as well out about on the hustings?

Speaker 2

Oh?

Speaker 8

Really positive. Look, we including for uh, he'll get a tax cut under us, and every Victorian will. So we want people to earn more. We want wages to go up, and we want taxes to go down. The other side I promised, I think rather extraordinarily to actually introduce legislation to increase everyone all thoughting me in taxpayers taxation right, Wow.
