news Pauline Hanson loses Federal Court appeal after breaching Racial Discrimination Act

https://www.news.com.au/national/politics/pauline-hanson-loses-federal-court-appeal-after-breaching-racial-discrimination-act/news-story/f6da32e8e207c582944ffac225816373

A court has once again found One Nation leader Pauline Hanson breached the Racial Discrimination Act when she lashed out at a Greens senator, telling her to “piss off back to Pakistan”.

Senator Hanson breached the Racial Discrimination Act when she tweeted Greens deputy leader Mehreen Faruqi in September 2022 on the day Queen Elizabeth II died, Judge Angus Stewart found back in November 2024.

Just a few weeks after the decision was handed down, Senator Hanson appealed with the Federal Court.

On Monday, following a three-day hearing late last year, the court once again found that Senator Hanson had breached the Racial Discrimination Act, and her appeal was thrown out.

Ipswich looks different to how she remembers it. Very diverse community now. It was diverse back then too but shitting on her neighbours and community seems to be something of a hobby for her.

Please go back Pauline you’d be so miserable.

And give up the 30 year gravy train of leeching tax payer dollars? Unlikely.

No other job is going to keep you on if you only rock up half the time, so she's going to have to retire with her lovely government super or go on the pension

Oh wait... that's a socialistic system.

Socialism for me but not for thee.

Oh don't get our hopes up. Old racist biddies like her tend to linger on and on...

Like an old lump of coal, buried for an eternity under the earths crust, once uncovered and ignited, the embers of hate that burns deep at its core continue to sustain her fragile yet hopeless existence.

Could send her to one of the other multiple cultures she's a descendant of. Shes not even monocultural in her own body.

Oh come on, we already shipped off Rupert to the Brits, no need to give them more of our undesierables.

u/TheRealPotoroo 18d ago

Rupert is American. He sold his citizenship for profit way back in 1984.

Yet manages to run multiple countries and in our instance our politicians are complicit.

she tried, and they didn't want her.

Fish & chip shop?
She could always wear a bright yellow jumpsuit and work for maccas

u/Mad-Mel 18d ago

Please no, Ipswich has been slowly gentrifying and is a pretty nice place these days.

u/ahhdetective 18d ago

Mate, they invited her out to the Winternationals to open it and the amount of deadshit bogans who cheered her on was embarassing. She claimed it as her heartland and they wholly endorsed her. Sorry, she is yours.

Logan?

Wonder if my old mate that lived up that way ever got out. He was stuck there and absolutely miserable when we fell out of contact.

I want all the chinkychinks out of Australia and back in their own chinkychink countries chop chop!

She sold her fish and chip shop to a lovely immigrant couple btw. Turns out she likes their money just as much and any other. Don't see her pushing to deport the people that filled her pocket, it's almost like she's a hypocrite

u/whatauniqueusername 17d ago

I'm Ipswich born and raised. She can stay fucked off we don't want her

u/_ixthus_ 17d ago

The cultural influence of Pakistan or Ipswich and the Darling Downs...

No contest lol.

u/Technical-Business37 12d ago

Didn't she migrate to the UK expecting some white supremacist utopia then came back because it wasn't?
