Pauline Hanson makes explosive claims about why most voted NO to The Voice – before unleashing on Indigenous Australians in one of her most explosive speeches to date

Pauline Hanson has made explosive claims about why many Australians voted no to the Indigenous Voice to Parliament before coining the term ‘Traditional Owners’ in a fiery speech that sparked outrage in parliament.

On Monday, One Nation leader Senator Hanson approvingly read out a comment on her Facebook page from ‘Rebecca’ to the Senate as she delivered a stinging post-mortem on the defeated Voice referendum.

‘Can we stop using the term Traditional Owners?’ Senator Hanson quotes the post asking?

‘Aboriginals did not own Australia and do not own it. They were original inhabitants, and that’s it.’

‘Mother Nature has provided everything the Aboriginals claim. They didn’t build Ayer’s Rock, the Three Sisters, Kakadu, the river systems, the mountains etc.

“They used the land and the natural resources and structures that were already there.

‘They didn’t build or design anything at all and just as they still do today, they use and take whatever is available to them.

‘Many Australians think that way.’

Senator Lidia Thorpe’s voice shouts: ‘Not all Australians’.

“What people often forget, like Senator Thorpe, is that I was born here too, just like millions of other Australians and the migrants who came here,” Senator Hanson continued.

“All I’ve asked for is equality for all Australians. If you need it, you will get that helping hand. If you don’t need it, fine, you don’t.

‘If you work hard for what you need, and that has been proven by the eleven senators in this House, who are actually of Aboriginal descent, and still want special treatment.

“And you don’t deserve it, nor do millions of other Australians,” Senator Hanson said, looking around the room.

The shouted interruptions increase until Senate President Sue Lines intervenes and tells both senators to take their seats.

After a meaningful pause, she tells Senator Hanson to continue, but to direct comments to her as chairman.

Senator Hanson goes on to claim that Australia is ‘not just among the Stone Age hunter gatherings discovered by the British explorers and settlers’.

“I have to ask what special or unique contribution entitles Indigenous Australians to special or unique rights greater than anyone else. The answer is: no answer at all,” said Senator Hanson.

“There has only ever been one nation founded on this continent on January 1, 1901, so there can be no legitimate treaty and this means there is no requirement for so-called ‘truth-telling’,” she said.

“This is rewriting history to maximize settlements in a treaty, forget it.

“We are all Australians together and should be treated equally.”

Earlier in the same speech, Senator Hanson had made special mention of Senator Thorpe.

“There is no war on Indigenous Australians as Senator Thorpe claims,” Senator Hanson said.

“The fact that she sits in parliament with other indigenous people proves that this claim is a lie

“Senator is not a victim of her taxpayer-funded salary and most Indigenous people reject the idea that they are victims.”

Senator Hanson also accused Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and other Voice advocates of being “out of touch.”

“Australians understood that the Vote was a crucial first step towards a treaty, and they reversed it,” she said.

“They understood that the Voice, the treaty and the truth-telling would divide this country on the basis of race, and they struck them back.

“They understood that the inability to close the gaps was not going to be solved by more bureaucracy and more billions of dollars wasted on the Aboriginal industry gravy train.”

‘They received lectures from big companies, big banks, academics, activists, the Greens, the Teals, Minister (Linda) Burney and Prime Minister Albanese.

“They heard these outrageous leaders tell them they were racist and stupid if they didn’t do what they were told.”

Senator Hanson said the ‘Aboriginal industry and ‘indigenous elites’ were ‘living large’ off the Australian taxpayer ‘while Aboriginal people in remote communities continue to suffer from poverty, crime and welfare dependence’.

They heard about this industry and the indigenous elites who live largely on Australian taxpayers, while Aboriginal people in remote communities continue to suffer from poverty, crime and welfare dependence.

Senator Hanson argued that “governments don’t sign treaties with their own citizens.”

“Equal rights for and special rights for none are an essential principle of Australian democracy,” she said.

The proposed Indigenous Voice to Parliament was convincingly rejected by a referendum in which more than 60 percent of voters rejected the proposal.
