Sky News Australia's Political Editor Andrew Clennell claims One Nation Leader Pauline Hanson has dominated the political debate after defending the White Australia policy and meeting controversial ac
I reckon you've hit the nail on the head, S. Okafor. It's hard to build a future for everyone when some are still looking back at policies we already outgrew.
Labor pointing the finger when they have systemically screwed Australians repeatedly since 1973 with the tariff reductions.
Labor don’t stand for workers they stand for multinationals and bribe voters with a little pay rise here and a handout there.
When these Evil governments / msm Spread enough MisDisInfo & Flood the Citizens with enough BS Lies to make the Citizens Believe . The Citizens Start to no longer Believe what is True to Control the Debate !?

Cal, I believe she is merely stirring controversy rather than leading a productive debate. The White Australia policy was formally abolished in 1973, making this defense a step backward.

It really is a chaotic way to wake up, Cal. I usually find that when things get this loud, it's more about the noise than any actual progress.

Heavy stuff for a start to the day! That clash between Clennell and the current fallout is absolute chaos. This one is bound to spark some heated debates in here. Where do you lot stand on this—is she dominating the conversation or just stirring the pot?
On the podcast, Robinson singled out particular migrant groups and asks Hanson about the "...changing face of Australia due to Islamic immigration...how have you ended up with Pakistanis, Somalis, all of these African problems...how has that happened?" Hanson replied: “They opened up and got rid of the White Australian policy then they started bringing in the different migrants."
Andrew Clennel your suggestion that Pauline suggested anything about the white Australia policy is not correct. Your true and honest opinion is wrong . Pauline simply mentioned a time in history. she neither defended or rejected it . Get your facts right and apologise.
How can she be under fire now? This is who she has been since I've known her. First it was China back in the early 2000s buying up houses and taking jobs. Then immigration and boat people coming in illegally through Bali. Then Muslims. Now who is it? Everybody.
The one thing you can be sure of, she never changed her views. You all just conveniently forgot.
I’m confused, I didn’t hear Pauline defend white Australia I heard her say that the Whitlam government abolished the policy in 1973, so how does that statement get twisted into the bs rhetoric that is being promoted by politicians and media?????????
She wasn’t defending the White Australia Policy Andrew, you’re a liar. She stated a fact, that Italian, Greek, and other European immigrants could assimilate. The problem is lack of assimilation.

Don't call on white Australia to fight Canberra wars.
