Anti-Islamization Party Tops Polls in Australia

“That is what they want — a world caliphate. And I am not going to apologize.”

In March, Australia’s ruling Labor regime censured Senator Pauline Hanson for opposing bringing ISIS members to Australia. According to the senate censure resolution, Hanson’s “inflammatory and divisive comments seeking to vilify Muslim Australians, which do not reflect the opinions of the Australian Senate or the Australian people” who are supposed to love ISIS.

Whether or not the Australian people support Islamic terrorists, the way that the ruling Labor leftist government does, is a matter for the people to decide. And Labor was panicking badly because polls showed that the Australian people were making the ‘wrong’ decision.

The censure bid had been a desperate effort by the left-wing regime to slow down the rise of Hanson, who started out as a barmaid and working in a fish and chip shop, and her patriotic One Nation party which had been polling higher and higher as the public becomes disgusted with PM Anthony Albanese’s corrupt failed government, its lies and its surrender to Islam.

After the latest round of condemnations, Hanson said that she’s sorry if she “offended anyone out there that doesn’t believe in sharia law, or multiple marriages, or wants to bring ISIS brides in, or people from Gaza that believe in a caliphate… but that is what they want — a world caliphate. And I am not going to apologise … I will have my say now before it’s too late.”

Despite, or perhaps because of, the censure resolution, One Nation scored the second highest number of votes in an election in South Australia, giving it a number of candidates. In May, One Nation won its first lower-house seat and polls now speculate that it might be able to form a minority government. Some are describing the populist rise of One Nation as marking the end of Australia’s two-party system.

Thirty years after the more conservative Liberal Party had disavowed Hanson over her opposition to affirmative action for supposed ‘aboriginals’ (quite often white people falsely claiming aboriginal ancestry, much like Sen. Elizabeth Warren in the United States, leading to the bizarre preponderance of ‘fair-skinned white aboriginals’ in academia) and mass migration from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia and other neighboring parts of the Islamic world, Liberal voters are choosing One Nation much the way that UK conservatives are looking for options.

Penny Wong, the Malaysian gay immigrant serving as Anthony Albanese’s Minister for Foreign Affairs (representing a joke that no one is allowed to make) had championed Hanson’s censure, contending that she was “sending a message to the people of faith in this country” that “condemning an entire religion is not acceptable.” Unless of course it’s Christianity.

Wong had previously ranted about Christian ‘religious fundamentalists’, complaining about “the application of religious belief to the framing of law in a secular society” and accusing Christians of “deploying the power of the state to enforce one set of religious beliefs”.

“Religion-based moral codes continue to limit the freedoms and the rights of those who, in the view of religious groups, do not ‘conform’ to their views,” Wong had objected.

Then Wong had hypocritically turned around and demanded a censure of Hanson after the patriotic leader had denounced a Pakistani Muslim politician’s contempt for the Anglosphere.

Sen. Mehreen Faruqi, a Pakistani Muslim migrant, had mocked the mourning for Queen Elizabeth II, sneering “I cannot mourn the leader of a racist empire built on stolen lives, land and wealth of colonised peoples”.

Faruqi had also responded to the expressions of sympathy after the brutal Islamic massacres of Jews on Oct 7 by hatefully tweeting, “One colonial government supporting another. What a disgrace.”

Despite that, Faruqi wasn’t censured for siding with Islamic terrorists, but Hanson was taken to court and accused of ‘Islamophobia’, censored and fined for responding with “piss off back to Pakistan”. Then Penny Wong backed Faruqi’s censure of Hanson while whining, “it’s triggering each time you hear it. I’m the Senate leader, I still get triggered.”

“How long do you have to be here and how much do you have to love this country before you’re accepted? How long?” Wong demanded, while speaking in support of the hatred of a Pakistani Muslim who had denounced England and Australia as the products of an evil “racist empire”.

Wong had also backed Islamic terrorists over Israel just as she did in Australia. Hanson, by contrast, had worn an Israeli flag and sided with the non-Muslim victims of Islamic terrorism.

Last year, the Australian Jewish Association condemned Wong for “emboldening and legitimising Islamic terrorist groups” and having “chosen to side with those who seek to destroy the Jewish state”, and the AJA praised Hanson, saying, “Thank you for always standing with our community.”

After thirty years of the media and the elites condemning Hanson for making forthright statements such as, “we are in danger of being swamped by Muslims, who bear a culture and ideology that is incompatible with our own”, Hanson and One Nation continue to advance.

And the condemnations are falling into their own political echo chamber.

Poll numbers offer no guarantees even in what are supposed to be ‘democracies’. The Dutch political establishment has repeatedly colluded to block Geert Wilders, despite his party winning the majority of the voters, similar efforts have been used to block Le Pen in France, and are being used in the hopes of replacing Netanyahu with a leftist-Islamist government in Israel.

But the polls show that the public increasingly is with Hanson and One Nation, not Wong, Faruqi, Albanese and the rest of the foreign lobby selling out Australia and killing its future.

And much like President Trump, Hanson has been effective at bypassing a corrupt incestuous media operation to get her message directly out to the public. Last year, she wore a burka to campaign for a ban on burkas. The media hate her, but can’t stop quoting her.

As housing prices soar and Muslim migrants get everything while natives get nothing, the winds of political change are blowing towards Australia. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, like his carbon copies in the UK and Canada, Keir Starmer and Mark Carney, appears ready to fall.
