(not too related with OneNation, but more just in regards to migrants): the other thing about migrants is that we need to enforce them transferring their driver's licenses to Australian licenses. Afaik there is not reinforcements (no pro-active checks carrying penalty) for delaying transferring their licences. transferring licences forces them to learn our road rules, which will minimise migrants' non-Australian-standard driving behaviours.

As if non immigrant Australians follow road rules lmfao

You see, Pauline is not totally against immigration!

It's about allowing in the right type of immigrant.

Yep, sink the country and send us into debt, tank businesses. But on the plus side we get to have another few years of insufficiently taxing billionaires and corporations while they steal all our data and turn the country into a giant network of datacenters that other parts of the world view as warmly as a wet damp fart on an elevator.

All so her "base" can feel emboldened to express the racism that sits at the core of their being like a festering, weeping fistula of pure evil.

What a pack of fucking idiots.

tis the way with rightwing leaders it seems , AFD leader, lives in Switzerland, lesbian, married to a Sri Lanken with an adopted kid, a literal nazi who bangs on about traditional families and immigrants.

Nigel Farage, bangs on about immigrants, married to an immigrant, Trump similarly

and yet zero fucking accountability for their hypocrisy! Fuck voters.

Maybe she has a grudge against her first husband. Anyway, Hanson herself has has 9% Middle Eastern heritage, along with 32% Italian, Greek, or Turkish, and 59% Northern European ancestry.

I tend to trust those sorts of breakdowns as much as I do Pauline. They are basically fortune tellers in Lab coats. Regardless of her ethnic background she is 100% Cunt that counts for a lot more.

Calling her a cunt is not exactly a scientific or trustworthy description either. I oppose what she stands for and that she does not even seem to understand what she's taking about. There's a shallowness and lack of serious thinking and an attachment to fascistic principles that follow overseas trends and vested interests. I reckon we need to be alert about the machine that keeps her as an easy figurehead. I don't think she would be where she is without it.
