The Greens reject Hanson's tired Islamaphobia, racism, transphobia and protection racket for fossil fuel
Responding to Pauline Hanson's National Press Club address, Leader of the Australian Greens Larissa Waters said:
"Pauline Hanson's incoherent hatred today offered nothing more than the same tired Islamaphobia, transphobia, racism and protection racket for fossil fuels we've heard from her for decades.
"Pauline Hanson wants Australians angry, divided and scared of our neighbours. It's an ugly and racist distraction from her servitude of the same billionaires and corporate superprofits as the major parties.
"One Nation opposes wage increases for workers and opposes a 25% tax on gas exports. One Nation looks after corporate superprofits, not people.
"Attacking multiculturalism and pedalling islamaphobia and transphobia won't fix the housing or cost of living crisis.
"One Nation will not change the system any more than Labor or the Liberals will.
"Every party in the country except the Greens is bleeding votes to One Nation. The major parties are in decline, and we have an opportunity for real change. But One Nation wants more of the same.
"If people want a fair go in Australia, they need to vote for the only party that puts people ahead of profits: The Greens.
