Fresh from angering the country with her anti-vaccination views, One Nation leader Pauline Hanson has appeared on A Current Affair to talk about the Muslim community.
And her views are as extreme as you’d imagine.
Asked by host Tracy Grimshaw if she believed there were any “good Muslims” living in Australia, Senator Hanson suggested they were difficult to spot/few and far between.
“I believe there are some that want to live a good life and a quiet life,” she said. “But you tell me — you line up a number of Muslims, who’s the good one?”
She also claimed Muslims are taking over Australia’s suburbs by offering people “suitcases full of cash” to move out.
“I hear Australians that have lived just nice, quiet lives in their suburbs and then they’ve had Muslims come in there who have changed their suburbs,” she said.
“They’ve built these mosques and they have their cars parked across the driveway or they have rubbish thrown over their fences.
“Or they go and knock on their door because they won’t move out and threaten them. ‘Listen mate, you better take this suitcase full of cash and get out of here.’ It’s having an impact on our educational system and, you know, in our schools and our swimming baths. [It’s] their attitude.
“The burqa should absolutely go. This is Australia.
“The full face covering I think is wrong. If they want to live that way and have their sharia law, then I suggest they go to a Muslim country.”
Hanson is currently campaigning for the WA election this weekend. One Nation is expected to do well.
