00:24This is our little beach.
00:25To the sandy shores of the Coral Sea.
00:28The US administration changes its position on a regular basis.
00:34By his own admission, the great adventure the tariff saga's become has confounded governments

00:52In the teeth of stiff trade headwinds comes a hands across the water moment.
00:57President Xi's ambassador to Canberra has written publicly that China does not engage in
01:03trade barriers, protectionism or unilateralism, erasing Beijing's $20 billion five year lockout

01:12He then proposes China and Australia join hands to defend the multilateral trading system.
01:19Bullies don't respect weakness.

02:01They say it's for future generations.
02:04Where's Albanese?
02:05There's nowhere to be seen.
02:06Are you Peter Duckman?
02:07I am, yeah, yeah.
02:08Who won the election?
02:09You or Albanese?
02:10Well, it's coming up.
02:11It's in about three weeks' time.
02:13Three to go with the bemused, the inquisitive and the undecided.
02:17This has been a Оid-Aid-Aid.
02:18It has been a long time since it was decided.
02:19Three to go with the side of the room.
02:20The worst is from the ground.

02:27There have got steel in the past.
02:28There have got a lot of open eye to it.
02:29Where did you get us?
02:30Ten minutes, 10 minutes, 10 minutes, 11 minutes, 11 minutes, 11 minutes.
02:32Once you get that out of your agenda, you will get the right balance.
02:33There have got a lot of nights.
