He also drops a bombshell about Joe Biden dropping bombs on Syria, and the news leaves us shell-shocked.
We then get into our local Western Australian state politics, with an election looming in less than a couple of weeks' time. The WAxit party's secession plan for WA. The Liberal and Labor parties tricking voters into handing over their personal details under the guise of applying for a postal vote. The tinpot dictator Premier Mark McGowan turning WA in to a police state with the G2G tracking app for arrivals into the state and his announcement that he intends to keep the border closed long after the pandemic ends.
The recent party leaders' debate made both of us angry for different reasons. And Simon fires up about opposition leader Zak Kirkup throwing in the towel by conceding defeat 2 weeks before the election and throwing his local candidates and voters under the bus.
We also discuss our thoughts about the COVID-19 vaccine.
We ask why West Aussies like state vs state parochialism. We discuss the recent Australian national anthem lyric change, what a new Australian flag could look like, and the differences between the United Kingdom and Great Britain.
Then we close the show with a country love song to our Dear Leader by local Perth comedian Chelsea Jones.
