“This latest insight into Pauline Hanson’s mind is scary stuff, but unsurprising. Her sit down interview with convicted criminal and professional hate monger Tommy Robinson is the latest in a decades-long career of her spreading the same, hate-filled message. “Harking back to a white Australia and piling hate on Muslims and migrants is disgusting, blatant racism.
This hate doesn’t exist in headlines or in a vacuum, it has a material impact on targeted communities and One Nation knows that. “They don’t want people fighting the system making their lives harder, they want people fighting each other. “The Australia of One Nation’s fantasies is a mean and selfish place where pointing the finger at your neighbour and punching down on Muslims becomes the norm, where women’s rights are wound back, and where we fight each other for scraps dropped from above by the billionaires pulling the strings.
“Labor and the Liberals have created the conditions for One Nation’s hate to rise, by constantly putting their corporate donors’ interests ahead of people’s and dogwhistling on migrants. “The One Nation scam of pretending to be anti-establishment while being bankrolled by billionaires and right-wing media is clear for everyone to see. Hanson goes on holiday with a billionaire in a luxury hotel in Italy and still has the gall to tell you it's migrants making it hard for you to pay your rent.
“I have taken on Hanson and the far-right in parliament, on the streets and in the courtroom. Now is the time to fight back and show people that something different is on offer. We want to see a country where everyone feels safe, welcome, and has everything they need to thrive and live a good life.” Facebook for the Australian Greens YouTube for the Australian Greens X for the Australian Greens Instagram for the Australian Greens Bluesky for the Australian Greens Privacy Members website Your safety Contact us Our plan Tax the 1% Tackle the cost of living Healthcare for all Fix the housing crisis Strong climate action In your language 2025 policy platform Policy principles & aims Our team Federal MPs State/territory MPs Officeholders Federal portfolios Federal media releases Take action Volunteer Donate Issues & campaigns Upcoming events Greens Shop Leave a bequest Green Magazine All news Our movement About the Greens Become a member Jobs Members website State/territory parties Contact us The Greens acknowledge the Traditional Owners of country throughout Australia and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture.
