- You can tell the difference between the stance on social issues then and now. Sorry I couldn't include the whole thing. I accidentally went over the first half with other recordings. But still, a rare piece of historical coverage. Much better than the boring political debates we see in Australia these days.
Ray Martin couldn't hold a candle to Kerry O'brien. Thanks for uploading this, would be great to see more!
Been waiting for someone to find the second debate! Huge thank you
Keating nailed it when he said,
“What’s going to matter to small business is:
-growth;
-a stable labour market;
-stable wage outcomes;
-low inflation;
-low interest rates; and
-not being belted around by big companies.
That’s what’s gonna matter!”
A bit haunting listening to them talk about gun laws, knowing what was about to happen in Tasmania soon after. Credit to little Johnny, he did the right thing on that issue.
What a missed opportunity, Australia rejecting Keating for Howard. Keating had set things up for little Johnny to hold the reigns and waste all the good years that were to come. Imagine, a republic, infrastructure, education, our place in Asia, Aboriginal reconciliation, the 1990s would have averted so many of todays problems. The country would have developed into something far better than what we were left with in 2007.
16:56 …are you going to put us to sleep?
Well that’s was just part of it 🤣
Nice job finding footage of the second debate
14:24 damn Keating is good
"Longest period of growth.. we can continue right through the 90s, if we keep the wage system right, if we don't collapse the accord, if we don't beat up unions, if keep our eye on the inflation rate, if we keep investment coming, we can have strong growth and strong employment right through the turn of the century."
"What's happened is that I took an industrial graveyard off John Howard with double digit unemployment, double digit inflation, and basically industry is going nowhere and now we're exporting out heads off, highly sophiscated workforce, we got a highly trained workforce, and we've got a good wages system in place to keep high productivity and low inflation"
@@Coolsomeone234 Keating was full of shit!
Where was dinner? McDonald's!
Do you have coverage of the 1996 election night?
Sorry, I taped over it.
@@siredith8846 would it be possible for you to tape the whole thing again

That channel also has election coverages for other elections also missing from youtube such as NSW 2007, 1995, etc
Love that bit john howard was impatient at 3.50 like state your view and get on with it paul gave it back to him 👍 if only the voters saw through howard maybe keating would have won
Floreat Pica!
13:20 The wool boom from February 1986 - September 1988?
wow. two of australias best leaders going head to head wouldve been something to see.
Why did Howard get the vote. He ruined this country. It makes you feel ashamed that Australians voted that clown in in 1996. I remember how worried I felt and how sad it was to see Keating go. He was genuinely the last great politician we had. Howard set the future for Australia as one of the worst countries now to live with the highest cost of living and housing in the developed world. His legacy is the generation of Australians with no hope of home ownership and forced to move back home. What a joke
Both these consummate leaders and spin artists (i mean that in the best way) kept it together and did a great job bouncing off one another to stay on track- IN SPITE OF the moderator.
What did he do? hinder, interrupt, heckle, hector, cut off every answer from Paul and some from John. Really chaotic.
15:26 It didn't cause any delay to the construction of the Ettamogah Paper Mill near Albury.
Much-needed job creation.
22:26 The Trade Practices Act was nationalized and made uniform in 2010. No more individualized state-based legislation. That's Federalism in practice.
Ray Martin asked Paul Keating, about gun laws and about two months later, John Howard banned them instantly
Ray Martin’s line of questioning was pathetic, even cringeworthy.
Tell me about it
18:42 John Howard did actually make a Fairpoint about reconciliation not by using politically correct virtue signalling but getting down to the real problems instead you might not agree with him but he does make a fair point when you think about it
Howard did him dinner.
