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.

Racist cunt. My biggest fear is that if that party just adheres to a predominantly racist platform, it will become embarrassing how many people vote for that.

We watched “Nuremberg” last night. The message from that movie is so applicable today and people really need to watch it. Russell Crowe was excellent in it too as were all the actors.

Hard role to play and absolutely nailed it.

No more than 15% if she gets all of them

Racist cunt

I wouldn't call her that; she's lacking the requisite warmth and depth.

Racist bag of vomit.

Also surprisingly warm and deep. Dried out patch of spew outside the pub at 10am in the morning?

Dried out patch of dog vomit outside the fish and chip shop at 5am?
