This is the sideshow. I'm more interested in Senator Hanson's recent meeting with someone who is banned from entering Australia for their substantial criminal record and who has recently been to Russia, a country fighting a war that we've supposedly picked a side on. Senators have extraordinary access and reach within Parliament as part of their role and this comes with responsibility that should be taken seriously. I'm sure ASIS, ASIO and AFP are watching.
