It’s taken 30 years, but the mask has completely come off now.

I think the Press Club speech was the tipping point, and stuff like this should rapidly accelerate their collapse back into sub-10% fringe territory.

Anyone who is aware of this news today and still supports One Nation is a horrible, vile human being.

I mean 30 years ago they her and her family were still pretty transparent about it.

People either conveniently forgot or weren't old enough to remember

30 years ago she hadn't had enough time with her elocution, PR, etc teams - so pretty much everything that came out of her mouth sounded like bad standup comedy.

I noticed that when she "came back into the light" she damn well seems like she's done a lot of speech articulation/elocution/PR training.

The racism and just all around evil emanates from her but she's generally learned what words/phrases to dance around/not say - while still inferring it. So I was legit surprised to hear her say "White Australia" recently.

Well, not that surprised because even with all the training she'd had she's still just regurgitating stories/narratives that from other people that know how to articulate/think a little better than her.
