One Nation Leader Pauline Hanson has gone on a spectacular offensive against the Melbourne residents trapped inside nine housing commission towers, calling them “drug addicts” and saying they should have learnt English before coming to Australia.

show this morning, co-host Ally Langdon put it to the Senator that some of the tower residents hadn’t had a proper meal since Saturday.

Senator Hanson went on to say that an inability to speak English had led to the led to the towers being shut down. “Is the Government worried about the other areas that are shut down? You know, the people in their homes, are they able to actually get out and buy the food as well? There has to be a reason why they have targeted this set of blocks, apartment blocks. Ask that question.”“You know, these people, I saw them taking a truck load of food to them, all the rest of it, if they are from war torn countries, which some of these people are, they know what it is like to be in tough conditions,” she said.

“The fact is that we’re sick and tired of people bleeding bloody hearts out there,” she said. “This is a shutdown because the rest of the state has been locked off from the rest of the country. “Why should we? Why should we put everything out in someone else’s language when you come to Australia,” she said.

Pauline Oh Pauline. Pretty ugly, prickly and thorny since the 80s. Probably beaten endlessly as a child! Adult Child of a Dysfunctional home?

Today show egg on your face. Get your facts right.

She should be exiled from this country. She is an embarrassment a complete hateful racists!

Even if they are drug addicts, still need to have compassion. Can't just cut them off from drugs. Its painful, cruel, and can even be lethal in some cases

Double standards. Only care about ratings

She makes me feel ashamed to be an Australian...

Lol y'all are funding this crap Pauline is absolutely correct. Start thinking for yourselves, followers most of ya anyway.

Good on her Pauline fkn rules

I'm a drug addict and I still love Pauline. She's just speaking her opinion. Free speech is a beautiful thing you snowflakes. Smoke weed and chill out

MORE LEFTY RHETORIC

About time!

She's everything that is wrong with Australia.

🤣 Do any of the politicians realise 1 lot R lazy scammers, others R unlucky & others are incapable of understanding! I would B in houso if my olds weren’t hard workers & honestly most houso’s fall in2 these 3 categories!.

It’s always the right time to do the right thing. Is there any compassion in Pauline’s heart ?

I don't agree to many things that Pauline says But this time she is right.

Some .true not all.

Well they are and it's the truth.... If anyone should be band from the it should be David Koche and the stupid show 'The Project'. And they should be drug tested.

Pauline has a point 100%

Every fact now has become a racist rant?

The only good thing about this SCAMDEMIC is there is NO immigration!

Wtf

It’s only spectacular if you’ve been asleep for the last 20+ years she’s been in the public eye. If you’ve been paying attention it’s just boring and predictable.

Well said Pauline, and you are not racist.

Now get out!

Skanky Red Headed Dog

mairzy3039

You spelled racist wrong

And for what possible benefit? How do comments like that advance any issue in particular? What was the relevance to containing Covid? Or was she just punching down on folk who he battlers. If only they were white. She’s a piece of shit. Move on.

You got what you ordered racists 🤬🤬 Shame the media isn’t going to expose how much coke gets around in Sydney. Worst kept media secret.

Pauline Hanson has been (publicly) offensive since March 1996

Phildecynic Looking from overseas where is free speech in Australia Because there are many ways in the digital world skills can build more for free speech

I watched it and am still confused. What gibberish was she spouting?

Phildecynic Over rated racist politician who struggles with one language demands others be fluent in at least two

AusNZPacific The nerve does she even know one dialect of the aboriginal language.

She would benefit from some English lessons herself.

Im sure sunriseon7 will pay her extra to be on

There are countries in the world with an average IQ below seventy. They should never have been allowed in at all.

Excellent!

About time. Her Agenda is discusting and sick of her problematic thinking. She NEVER say what I am thinking otherwise she would say shutupyoubigot

Some older folk have difficulty learning another language.

Breaking.. dumbarse says dumbarse shit

This is the exact sort of xenophobia rife in this country fuelled by the government An absolute shame Deadly too

Nothing to see here... she didn’t say ‘ALL,’ but the truth is (sadly) a lot of these tenants do experience significant mental health, drug and alcohol issues... a difficult and sad situation

No speaka da english but hey giv me da money😉👍💰💰💰

Yeah but was she wrong What she said was no doubt uncomfortable but it was mostly bang on the money. have a problem with the truth it seems

RBJRON I am sure Pauline would know is she a regular visitor to these towers

What did Pauline say that was racist i gues questioning is the new racist 🙄 i ❤️ PaulineHansonOz she is our voice

You’d have told Tasman and or Cook and his crew, 100 yrs later, they should have learned an aboriginal language or three before coming to TheGreatSouthernLand too hey PaulineHansonOz?

What is exactly racist what she said?

‘Spectacular offensive?’ You mean ‘offensive race-baiting tirade’. Edit your material properly!

What was racist about that?

and here you are pushing her racist views, anyhoo why is it that Poorline Hanson cannot speak English herself, given she is of British descent? Ploise exploin?

She is DESPICABLE, don't give her any air, she has enough as is.

rambunctiousgo3 On what basis do you keep your broadcast licence ch9? People could actually self harm in this situation and Pauline escalated that likelyhood exponentially with comments like that!!! Disgusting all round!

Maybe get rid of the other two as well. They ran a close second to Poorlean.

She also called them alcoholics. I'm not fan of pauline hanson but I do agree with her saying they should have learnt english before coming to australia.

theWhistleblowerMovement Peter Navarro: ‘Chinese Communist Party needs to come clean about coronavirus’ Get ready for the unveiling!

I think you meant to say PaulineHansonOz had been spectacularly offensive.

How utterly contemptible this woman is. Mind you, Today knew perfectly well that she was apt to say something outrageous, and cynically had her on board for shock value. Politically, PH is of negligible significance and does not warrant anywhere near the airtime she receives.

This is how media boost up the rating. One simple issue for public safety has turned into an outrage towards the government. Waste my time reading it.

I don't need to hear the Hanson or to read about the Hanson!!

Speak English or get out.

I am a migrant and English is my third language, and I TOTALLY AGREE with Pauline. Respect the main language used where you live in. Make effort to learn and be a good contribution to the community.

Coz of this lady I stopped going to Queensland for Holidays. Kids still ask me why we don't go to surfers paradise anymore?

Appealing to her low rent fan base. Disgusting.

She’s getting the lockdown jitters. She hasn’t had the chance to be as offensive as often in the past couple of months. You can see it in her eyes. The nervous twitch of a junkie.

Spot on Pauline. Dictator Dan's multicultural enclave. Tribes abound. No English spoken. No integration. A disgrace and example of PC nonsense.

Oh hilarious. Pauline Hanson who can't string an English sentence together. The people living in those apartments speak better more intelligent English than foul mouthed PH ( work out what those initials stand for?) Why are they even giving this racist airtime ?

What a vile woman .. why the hell do we give her a voice.

Wonder if Poorleen knows a second or 3rd language?

Pauline is a moron. It’s basically a stationary cruise ship.

Piss off and take her with you

I don’t understand the outrage. When my parents migrated here they learnt English because the country they chose speaks English. So if you’ve chosen this country choose to learn the language. It’s no more racist than asking me to learn Polish if I moved to Poland.

The only news article I want to see about Hanson is an obituary and a fucking accurate scathing one. Please stop giving this gaping irrelevance a public voice.

She is right about 1 thing only. People should research why their targeting these apartments. These apartments are going to be demolished & replaced by 90% private dwellings. So if they start moving these residents out & placing them in different homes you will know why.

we need to start boycotting the advertisers

Jail would be to good for that racist white supremacist as for the Ch9 presenters they alone are enough not to watch their tabloid garbage

Have you ever heard PaulineHansonOz speak? This red headed clown can barely speak English herself. Go back to your fish shop Pauline. You are an embarrassment.

Hope she resigns Racist

Getting to the stage where Pauline Hanson should only be trending because she DIDN'T say something racist or stupid

Based Pauline.

Based Department: “sorry we can not take your call right now, all our operators are busy.”

Real classy TheTodayShow

Lmao.

Pol.C/ness will be the death of this country! All the hard work done to see the virus gone undone just to be seen to be seen 2 be culturally appropriate! Pauline cruel 2 be kind to empower them rather than the other 2 who are advocating 4 them to be socially handicapped!

But that's the Newscorp position

Mainstream TV:Let’s pay a racist to come on and make comments with her racist point of view then let’s show outrage. you channel 9. Must be great to pick on the vulnerable, you obviously sleep at night bc you’re a bunch of psychopaths

Don’t report crap she says please. Don’t give trash fires air.

Yeh weee need d money aye coz ferret just started to cough aye!

There are refugees sponging of the system in there too, not just drug addicts.

Why does Murdoch continue to give this clown a platform?

18 years on welfare. What a contribution to Australian society Awatif is.

Here's to another entitled white person and their uneducated opinion. Cheers PaulineHansonOz

This dumbass woman has no idea how hard it would be to live in a country and not be able to speak the language, she Also has no idea how to speak more than bogan English. These people , half were here because they had no other option. Can this old bag go swimming in the ocean.

Why do you guys give this fool air time?

9 promote Alison as the hard hitting journo but she doesn’t have the balls to push back on Australia’s leading racist. That’s the shame here. Free speech is welcome not free range facts

Lmao

Channel 9 have always been classist racists but why are taxpayers still funding this woman? She’s only hanging around long enough to satisfy the parliamentary pension scheme and her English and comprehension is terrible. What’s her excuse for not learning the language?

Spectacular offensive? She went on a racist, hateful rant

No problem with what Pauline said. No doubt there are drug addicts, and learning to speak Enhlish is a matter of practicality. Imagine trying to live and function in China, without speaking mandarin. Cue outrage from the logic-phobes.

Is this the fault of their own? Or are they simply learning what self-helplessness is when living in a society that agree with Pauline Fking Hanson?

And you provide her with a bigger audience by tweeting it on here There’s a word for you guys: Enablers

itsDenyol She doesn't stop being correct.

what a disgrace. TV channels should NOT be broadcasting this rubbish. They have a responsibility here to not share such garbage.

Pauline is only saying what the overwhelming majority of Australians really think, but are continually stymied and silenced by the mainstream media.

No food in the cupboard for just 24 hours?

Where's the lie?

i

This is disgusting, unnecessary, unhelpful & shameful PaulineHansonOz, MRobertsQLD & RealMarkLatham, yet given QldVotes2020 is just over the horizon, & OneNationAus is struggling for relevance, it is absolutely depressingly predictable. ~I.🤠 Auspol

Hey, here's an idea... send Pauline to live with Trump, they make a perfect pair

Cancel the bitch, seriously. She doesn’t deserve the air time... or doesn’t deserve the air, period.

Racist

Not everyone needed that mouthful of Hanson. Sometimes she makes sense, other times she is a complete fool like this tower rant. Export her to the Trump cabinet.

Offensive is Pauline's middle name. She's a regular on the entertainment team at Nine.

Hanson should have learnt not to be a toxic piece of shit before coming out of her house, but there we go.

What an appallingly inconsiderate tirade! Those vulnerable community have suffered enough, unsympathetic Pauline Hanson should just shut up, and pathetic Channel 9 should ameliorate its poor reporting standards!

Typical Ch9 crap

What is she on? It is often a case of psychological mirroring when people rant on & on against a particular subject, only to be found out later as a practitioner of what they condemned! Like preachers into adultery, priests & paedophilia, politicians & corruption.

Immigrants must assimilate. Leave their previous worries behind, enjoy the freedom of the best country in the world. If people don't love it here, they can leave.

Ugly outside ugly inside

She’s drawing a long bow with those comments.

Plainly Pauline is a rude and racist person. No one in the media should give her airplay. She is a disgrace!!

Congrats channel 9 in what’s now a divided country u at Channel9 flame the fire.

my taxes pay for this crap?

PROBLEM SOLVED BoycottMurdoch

Poorline 'have a look at the facts before you critisize'

Remember in 2016 when a speech expert said Pauline Hanson should learn to speak English?

Cue the 2mins hate.

Isn’t this racist Qld redneck in support of detention, she has voted with the LNPCrimeFamily on the topic.

God she’s EVIL

Not all that well articulated Pauline but we definitely get the gist of what you’re trying to say I think most Australians will agree with you except of course for the screaming lefties that support every minority whatever the cause be it just or not.

The TheTodayShow is the problem. Pauline is just after her next meal ticket.

Murdoch desperate for attention, gives air time to white supremacist. FIFY.

Most of it is correct.

Certainly Australia is not benefiting from taking refugees or migrants on any type that are not adhering to our principles and culture of Freedom Democracy Law and Order. Those ethnic groups that still after a generation or two even educated here don't adapt and cause trouble.

Too late now. No one pulled her up, you didn't cut the feed as you should have. Written complaint to Ch9 pending, followed by formal complaint to broadcasting body. Apologize or face the consequences. RacistTrash

Should put her there amongst them. See what it's really like. COVID19Vic 7NewsMelbourne

I would have thought the likes of Pawleen fit well in the News Corp papers and TV shows.

Hundred percent right Pauline keep up the good work

It's amazing she has survived this long in her political career built on hate and prejudice. Then again, when you have djt as potus I'm going to keep a very open mind.

Looks to me like PaulineHansonOz was trying to 'interview' potential OneNationAus candidates on 'live' television.

Get back to us when the ugly crone can speak English herself. And stop promoting her.

Pauline is correct as per usual. Australia is white only.

Pauline has English as her second language. Not sure what her first is.

Why do we care what this person says. I’m fairly certain One Nation or Hanson has never held any political seats at any level of government in Victoria. How about talking to people on the ground. Why not Trades Hall reps? Migration task force peeps? Health department reps. FFS

Well said Pauline, keep up the great work.

I agree they should have basic English before they can settle here. Many other countries have a language requirement.

So you got the result you wanted from the interview?

Such a sweet woman is our Pauline NOT!

Oh bugger offand leave us Victorians to support our own with respect and care. Your garbage is just plain unhelpful

How to speak effluent just like Pauline !

Racist bogan

Every person coming to live in Australia should either come speaking English (like it used to be) or learn English within 1st 12 months. If they don't, deport them.

'Spectacular offensive'. No. 'Terrible, toxic, bigoted rant' is the correct framing of this, News dot com. I thought you hired journalists. Aren't journalists meant to be good with words? Because yours aren't.

Thousands of Melb residents locked down in 'prison-like' conditions | Sky News AustraliaResidents in nine of Melbourne’s public housing towers forced into a full lockdown have described their living conditions as being prison-like. \n\nPremier Daniel Andrews placed 3,000 residents in a five-day mandatory lockdown at the weekend as fears mount over a potential explosive outbreak of the coronavirus in densely populated high-rise buildings in Flemington and North Melbourne. \n\nThe Premier faced criticism for the move as he was accused of taking away personal freedoms as locked down residents were instructed not to leave the premises, with police guarding exit and entry points in the buildings.\n\nA number of the social houses forced into lockdown did not record any cases of the virus before being closed off. \n\nMr Andrews defended his decision, saying “this is not about punishment, this is about protection”. \n\n“We cannot have a cohort of people, many of whom – in poor health to start with, we can’t have this virus spread.” \n\nResidents unable to attend work due to the lockdown will be offered a $1,500 hardship payment with the unemployed offered about $700 while rent payments will be waived for two weeks. \n\nVictoria recorded 74 new cases of the virus in the last 24 hour period with 53 of those unaware of the source of their infection. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia \n\n Italy did the same. No one was allowed out Is this not their home? Well it’s home D essentially! It’s only for 5 days, take a chill pill! Or is it only 5 days?

How people are helping Victorian housing tower residents under stay-at-home ordersAbout 3,000 residents in nine Melbourne public housing towers will stay in their units for the next five days. This is how the community is making their life a little easier. I help every pay day....... called 'my taxes' ffs Maybe don't vote for Dan anymore. Hopelessly out of his depth. The only 'help' needed is to cease the disgraceful lockdown and unjustified, discriminatory victimization of people from low socioeconomic background.
