Politicians from across the divide have condemned Pauline Hanson's remarks about Indigenous Australians, labelling them "vile", "divisive" and "derogatory".
So much here in what you’re saying which explains why this awful, but populist party is gaining traction.
There’s a lot going on. The base and the groups are anti semitic so are farming the current anti Israel/Zionism sentiment, yet the party itself is Zionist supporting.
Hanson is accessible. She goes to shit like the Goomeri pumpkin festival and the Ekka. So people see her and it just reinforces the incorrectly held view she is one of them. Labor, state and federal, are unaccessible, heavily guarded and governed people who put a shield of spokespeople in front of them. People don’t give a shit about attendance as a Senator, they care about accessibility. The vibe they’re being heard.
Labor can’t respond on the spot, because its caucus system doesn’t allow it. Its caucus represents Labor, not the people. Captains calls aren’t really liked. Hanson can say whatever shit she likes.
You’ve noted the corruption issue. Another problem of Labor’s as a major party…corruption, lobbying, jobs for mates, internal appointments, secrecy. So Labor has no solid ground to fight Hanson corruption on, because they do it themselves. Whether or not we expect better from them.
Then we have all the nanny state, health based rules and policies such as the vape and social network which enough people just fucking hate, despite whatever good. It matters and they’ll vote on it.
I think Labor are in huge trouble, both in Victoria and nationally.
