Hanson answers the paradox!

Interviewer: "So, you don't like the way this country's been heading the past 40 years, don't like Aborigines, don't like Asians, spit on our national anthem... why exactly are you still here?"

Pauline Hanson: ....

...(tilts head)....

"GOOD POINT!"

I hope she's done her research. Certainly she'll find a few corners of old blighty filled with her ilk, but they won't take kindly to a foreigner, a convict no less, trying to teach them how to do fish and chips.

In my couple of years there I tended to find that the cranky old "This is MY country" types over there had a particular bee in their bonnet about Orstralians. Sometimes, what they said even felt like racism.

I wonder what will go through her head as she's sitting in the pub one day, listening to some half baked, under educated, whining chav rattle on about "what really annoys me about you lot is you come 'ere, goin' on about how good orstralia is, think you own the place, an' I wish you'd just go..."

And in one final humiliation, she's dumping Australia because it's not a land of opportunity. WTF? This from an uneducated, aesthetically and verbally challenged simpleton who was able to start a political party, get into Parliament, change politics forever then drag the experience out on various reality TV shows?

Did she want her face on the flag as well?

G'luck in blighty. I'm sure your stellar combination of skills and natural attributes will spark numerous opportunities in that famously egalitarian land. Maybe she'll sign up for Ladette to Lady...

Trackback to LP where the focus is on Tony Abbott's role in her political downfall...
