Senator Hanson said the Senate’s failure to even allow a normal debate on her move to ban the burqa and other face-coverings in some public settings prompted her to again expose these hypocrites. “They were outraged, but not for the right reasons as usual,” she said. “I wanted to expose their complete and utter hypocrisy.
They made the usual noises of outrage to cover their own embarrassment and complicity in making Australia less safe, in making Australia a haven for cultures which force women to wear these offensive garments, and in setting back women’s rights by decades. “And of course, Labor and the Greens just whined about giving offense to those cultures without ever acknowledging that vastly more Australians are offended by burqas and what they represent.
Greens are happy to wear symbols of terrorism in the chamber and are allowed to do so.” Senator Hanson’s bill amending the criminal code to ban the burqa and other face coverings was denied introduction in the Senate. “They refused to debate this issue on the Senate floor, and that’s to their shame,” she said. “More than 20 countries around the world have supported complete or partial bans.
Bans in European countries have been upheld when challenged before the European Commission on Human Rights. “This is not about religious expression. This is about community safety, national security, women’s rights, public civility and social cohesion.
These are the reasons many countries have banned burqas, and they’re the same reasons for which I’ve tried to do the same. “If these hypocrites don’t want me to wear a burqa, they can always support my ban.” Do you like this page? Share Get the latest from One Nation!
