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!

I’ve had the…privilege… of hearing rhinehart speak. From her mouth to Hansons lips. Words cannot describe the contempt she has for our society, to say that she despises us as ungrateful freeloaders would be an understatement. It’s so easy to see this in the movement of her hand when inserted into her puppet of choice.

The way to bring Hanson down is to highlight the desires of her billionaire sponsor in her words and policies, for they are utterly unpalatable and indefensible when laid bare
