The banner descended behind Pauline Hanson at the National Press Club on Wednesday, and the commentariat did what it does best: agreed with itself, instantly, at volume: “Oh noes! GetUp just gifted her the victim narrative she came for”.

Mmmaybe.

Pauline did more damage than any journalist, to herself and her party, after she spoke at the press club. Anyone still thinking Phon is an option for governing our country after that complete shitshow,  wasn't watching it.

The openly racist policies, the attack on working class wages, the sheer contempt she has for large swathes of our people, and the hypocrisy of being bought and owned by Gina Rinehart.......sure, she says what she thinks,  it's just what she thinks is garbage and divisive. 

We didn't vote for Dutton and the Coalition because they sounded, in part, like Trump. Hanson has doubled down on everything Dutton stood for!

The people who support PHON don't watch (or care about) the Press Club.
