Labels: apartheid, Australia, Frank Chung, Indigenous voice, Pauline HansenOne Nation leader Pauline Hanson has blasted Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s “Indigenous voice” proposal as “Australia’s version of apartheid”.
Speaking to a nearly empty Senate chamber on Wednesday, Ms Hanson delivered her most strident attack to date on what she dubbed the “racist” referendum proposal, while praising fellow Senator Jacinta Price, the lone Indigenous MP who opposes the advisory body.
The five-minute speech came a week after she dramatically stormed out of the Senate during the routine morning “acknowledgement of country”.
