Pauline Hanson - back with a vengaence!

[wycbloods]

typical west adelaide supporters. I predict you are in the cheer sqaud

I don't think that generalisation is correct either.

[southee]

She's great...speaks her mind. I like that

....but once again I can see the media getting hold of her and "warping" stories just to make her look stupid as they did before and the Australian "gullible" public believing it all.

[redandblack]

I think the 'gullible' Australian public woke up to her narrow, bigoted view of the world long ago.

With the honourable exception of you, southee, she's only left with the rusted-on xenophobes now.

[dedja]

Great to see Pauline back. Someone who speaks her mind on sensative issues, like the Port Lincoln mayor. We all think it they have the balls to say it. Welcome back

Don't tell me she's short on cash ... again

What part of no-one give a rats anymore does she not understand.

Sorry luv, your 5 mins of fame are over.

Southee always sticks up for the underdog R&B

[redandblack]

Ditto, southee, I can understand that, mate

[redden whites]

Gee the Lib lovers love Pauline here too.........explains a few policy directions and where they come from.

[Leaping Lindner]

The good thing is if she does win a seat and they need extra funds she can simply "print more money". Or maybe those "christian muslims" she's always going about will donate some.
If you're going to speak your mind it pays to have a mind in the first place.

[Media Park]

I'd tap it on the head with a hammer.

Edited for accuracy.

[Magpiespower]

I'll give her this much, she put the election in the news yesterday.

Nobody really gives a stuff given the inevitability of Labor's looming crushing defeat.

Only two more weeks...

[redandblack]

Sooner the better.

[redandblack]

She's got no hope whatsoever.

She's well past her use-by date and is a relic who now only appeals to a certain constituency who are generally frightened of people of a different colour, race or religion.

You can leave me out of your incorrect statement that 'we all think it'.

I'll amend the 'she's got no hope' quote.

I was unaware she's standing for the Legislative Council (Upper House), which might only require about 2.5% to get elected.

Everything else stands, as I note her 'team' of 16 on the ballot paper includes 5 ex-One Nation candidates and an ex- Against Asian Immigration candidate.

Lovely lot.

[gossipgirl]

cant we do an exchange ie we take on board 100 000 refugees and they get her.

she has to be the biggest waste of space although she is damn funny. she would be more successful as a stand up comedian.

I have wondered how the percentage of the community that feel so passionately against immigration and overseas-born people moving to Australia, would react if they were needing life saving surgery, and found that the doctor performing it was not born in this country.

Watching the 7pm project last night, I can accept that while she is raving mad, some of her policies have been 'nitpicked' by the major parties.

[gadj1976]

Her first comment when she loomed on the political landscape many years ago, I agreed with. That being that everyone should be treated equal, whether they be black (dare I say, rainbow), yellow or white.

She should've stopped there.

Of course the media (and if I recall political parties) called her racist - but I don't for the life of me see that comment as being racist myself.

[OnSong]

Funds her own campaigns too (somehow). Lol

at federal level once you get to a certain percentage of the vote (2% i think) the AEC pays you a couple of bucks for every vote. dare say she has some of that stashed away somewhere.

Thats an ok statement to make , however she should have made the premise that everyone needs to be at the same level before this eutopian civilisation of hers commenced.

Unfortunately, at that point we would all be poor, I expect.
The world has been more heavily populated than is sustainable, at the standards we all aspire to, for a very long time.
