Pauline Hanson: Her Resurrection

Jump to new

And they're not making electricity cheaper or internet faster too. Wait til the power is switched off. Just asking for it.

It also just occur to me that if you're rich and travel frequently enough, you could do a lot of your shopping without paying duty on it. All these time I thought it's only possible at Duty-Free shop at the airport, but apparently you can buy them at any above average shop, fill out a form and get your tax back.

I did it too, so ahem.

We are, but "people" for you has a more universal view than mine as i tend to favor citizen (nation) first, and the way to do it is something we have major disagreements with; but the aim is one indeed
 
yes but insignificant on the scale of things..yet i agree I have not paid tax on any spirit I have at home ( I do not consume much so my duty free allowance are plenty enough);
Not sure Pauline success is linked to duty free in any way
But it will be linked to the Steve Price storm in a tea cup news, the fact that there is clearly a discrimination against white hetero male:
in my FB today:https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1326523020709846&set=a.901578249870994.1073741826.100000564828167&type=3
Can I do the same and do a : "2 women, same age" without being cruxified?

I would bet not.And "positive discrimination" (need some nerve to even create that term), subjective or not is here.This is what Pauline is about in my opinion, that and the real state of the economy.
 
Pauline Hanson will be on QandA Monday July 18....She certainly has got gutz to front up to the biased Tony Jones who will no doubt have some stacked audience loaded questions....But I am sure she will handle the likes of Tony Jones and Larissa Walters from the Greens.....Pauline has bitten in to the Greens vote so I am guessing the Greens will be full of venom....The Greens have lost 3 senate seats thanks to Pauline.

I believe Pauline will gain momentum over the next few years particularly in the next Queensland state elections.

ONE Nation voters have defended their support for Pauline Hanson, claiming she is a voice of reason, with one even likening her to Nelson Mandela.

The Courier-Mail spoke with many One Nation supporters in the electorates of Wide Bay and Hinkler, where almost one in five people voted for Ms Hanson.

Lindsay McDermott, a 69-year-old retiree from Maryborough, said he *believed Ms Hanson had the courage to speak up on “real issues”.

“She cares about the issues most Australians have,” he said. “She can be outspoken, but she calls it as she sees it.

“They tried to put her in jail like Nelson Mandela but she came back and came back stronger.”

He said he didn’t agree with all Ms Hanson’s views, especially on “some of her racist comments”, but she would hold the major parties accountable.

Any chance we can lobby ABC to get Van Badham on the same ticket? I'd like to see our resident curmudgeon Pauline defending her rights to be a self made woman without abusing the gender card.
 

I think Pauline is smart appearing on Q&A. If she gets a nasty left winger dressed in the trappings of Inner City Arty vogue attacking her unfairly it will just enhance her standing and give her more supporters.

I am still annoyed with that "Arts Alliance" woman that attacked Turnbull with lies, which he corrected, but she ignored and went on to harangue during his answering rather than let him complete his sentences. How to get people offside!!

BTW I thought the Greens lost only one senate seat due to Xenaphon. Can't see One Nation stealing seats from them, completely different block of voters. Maybe wrong though. Is the Senate sorted yet?

I'm not sure she does all that well in debating type situation, but I'll certainly be watching and I hope she can put forward an articulate argument and reveal what of the government's agenda (such as it is) she will support and what she won't.

Same with Xenophon.

Definitely agree. But I do think the way they operate is similar. The Greens try to cater to the aggrieved left in the same way as Hanson caters to the aggrieved right. Back when they first started, the Greens, under Bob Brown, actually stood for something, now they just seem to be a hodge podge of single issue voters, and, at least in NSW, the only half hidden scent of chardonnay socialism.
 

I'm in the seat of Melbourne, a Green stronghold.
It's become the kids party.
Heaps of kids around 17 wearing green T shirts at every polling station, mostly mucking around with their friends waiting for the election to finish. If the Greens can hold onto them then Labor should worry.
They are very anti- but that political correctness ultimately hurts their movement.
 

They won't hold on to them because those kids will grow up and start to worry about Medicare, workplace entitlements, the tax rate they're paying and the interest rate on their mortgage. Not gay marriage, or the number of wombats that will be displaced by a new freeway. I have a lot of respect for guys like Bob Brown who really believed in environmentalism, but these pop-activists who wear a cause on their sleeve like a badge, no thanks.

...Unless of course the Greens move to the centre, but then they're just the ALP...
 

The Greens got double the vote of One Nation in the senate and about 10x the number of votes in the house of reps. If I want to hear imbeciles talking I'll watch Q and A....Oh look who's on next week.

Nick Xenophon is an imbecile ?

He and Andrew Wilkie gave a convincing case for gambling reform. I think they are going to be a thorn in the side of the major parties who will look as if they are supporting rapacious gambling interests if they don't support "reform".
 
Pauline Hanson has been accused of being a racist towards Muslims and out Australian indigenous community and condemned by these same groups but it is OK for them to exhibit hatred and violence against certain people in other communities and they get away with it.

Her policy of promoting everyone as Australians should not be regarded as Racism but taken into its context the right way......She wants to see every one treated on an equal footing without one group or the other maintaining they have more rights than others.

Although the Senate votes are still being counted, much of the commentary in the wake of the federal election focused on the recrudescence of Pauline Hanson’s One Nation Party, which seems likely to win three or perhaps four Senate seats. Alarm bells rang out that this poses a renewed threat to the fabric of Australia’s peaceful, pluralist society.

Hanson has often denied that her views and her party’s policies have anything to do with racism or bigotry, but it is difficult to see how else one can characterise her numerous public pronouncements attributing negative behaviour and traits to groups of people on account of their ethnic or religious background, most recently “Asians” and “Muslims”.

As obnoxious and unfair as many people find such views, Hanson is far from Australia’s worst offender on this score. If her critics wish to be credible, they will need to be equally vociferous in condemning racist and bigoted views emanating from quarters other than the radical right of politics.

Two years ago Hizb ut-Tahrir’s Sheik Ismail al-Wahwah spewed forth a hate-filled public rant accusing “the Jews” of corrupting the world, describing them as “the most evil creature of Allah” and threatening that “the ember of jihad against the Jews will continue to burn. Judgment Day will not come until the Muslims fight the Jews”.

While Hanson can be accused of promoting racial hatred and bigotry, which impliedly licenses violence against its targets, she has not expressly promoted or condoned violence against any group, as al-Wahwah has done. In fact, she has condemned it. Nor does she claim a divine mandate for her views.

Far too many of Hanson’s detractors seem to lose their voice and their nerve when confronted with public expressions of racism coming from Muslim communities. Social media sites Muslim Village, Mission Islam and Islamophobia Register Australia commonly include unmoderated posted comments that are as viciously racist, and supportive of racially motivated violence, as al-Wahwah’s.

And her confrontation with an indigenous person in Cairns.

Senator-elect Pauline Hanson has offered an olive branch to the Aboriginal land rights activist who publicly berated her as “a racist redneck”.

Gulf of Carpentaria tradit*ion*al owner Murrandoo Yanner confronted Ms Hanson in Cairns at the weekend outside the Cairns Indigenous Art Fair, *yelling at her for criticising indig*enous people and Muslims.

“You’re just a racist redneck with your red hair,” Mr Yanner told Ms Hanson on Saturday.

“Go, go away. Go back to *Ipswich and your fish and chip shop … you’re intellectually dishonest and you’re not welcome here.”

The stoush was filmed by spectators’ smart phones and posted to Facebook, where the video was watched more than one million times.

Pauline Hanson verbally attacked in Cairns

MORE: Perils of Pauline not unique
Yesterday, Ms Hanson posted a video on her own Facebook page, responding to Mr Yanner’s “abuse”. She said the encounter ignored support she said she had received from indigenous people inside the art fair.

Ms Hanson said she and Mr Yanner cared about the same *issues, including stopping alco*hol abuse and violence against women in Aboriginal commun*ities. “It’s really a shame to see what happened with Murrandoo Yanner on the steps and his abuse of me,” Ms Hanson said. “This man stands for a lot of issues that I stand for as well … he doesn’t like politicians, well *either do I, * because I don’t trust them. Murrandoo, please let’s work together. On these issues that are important to me, *important to the Aboriginal *people.”

When you refer to someone as an imbecile you want to be certain that it is not a case of the pot calling the kettle black. Can I suggest that you are as radical as you think she is.

One Nation could only have votes where it had candidates
.Let's be fair, the 10X number of votes for MP is not really representative of anything.
 
I hope many of you can still see the irony:

You can see darling Pauline on ABC Q&A tonight, rabid Right Wing network that it is.

 
Halal slaughtering - a reversible stunning process is used in Australia, and the RSPCA would much prefer irreversible stunning, as a more humane practice.

Let's see Sam Dastyari justify this tonight. Pauline Hanson's policy looks more humane to me, and more in line with RSPCA policy.
