	Pauline Hanson still walks among us - theage.com.au (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		When Pauline Hanson and One Nation first appeared on the national scene, it took a while for political observers to grasp that the more she was ridiculed, the more popular she became.
		And while Hanson's racism is appalling and her political solutions are simplistic, it would be naive to believe that she no longer poses a threat to Australia simply because she, and fellow One Nation founder David Ettridge, have been convicted of electoral fraud.
		While Hanson's racism appealed to the right, her views on globalisation and its effects on manufacturing and agriculture struck a chord with those members of the left who were never comfortable with Labor's pursuit of a deregulated economy.

	Pauline Hanson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hanson was raised in Woolloongabba, an inner city suburb of Brisbane.
		Hanson was a member of the Liberal Party of Australia, and from 1994 to 1996 was a local councillor in the City of Ipswich.
		Hanson was sentenced to three years imprisonment by the District Court of Queensland for falsely claiming that 500 members of the "Pauline Hanson Support Movement" were members of the political organisation "Pauline Hanson's One Nation", in order to register that organisation as a political party and apply for electoral funding.

	CNN.com - Legal woes grow for right-winger Hanson - May 26, 2002
		Hanson is a co-founder and figurehead of the right-wing One Nation party whose policies attack welfare for Aborigines, the level of Asian immigration and the globalization of the Australian economy.
		Hanson has pleaded not guilty to the charges and is vowing to fight them, maintaining the legal action against her is politically and personally motivated.
		Hanson has also resigned as party president and from the national executive of One Nation, however she remains a member of the party and still figures prominently in the political group's media and marketing efforts.

	One Nation Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		One Nation was formed in 1997 by Pauline Hanson, David Oldfield and David Ettridge.
		Hanson, an endorsed Liberal Party candidate at the 1996 federal election, had been disendorsed by the party shortly before the elections due to comments against what she saw as "race-based welfare," made to local newspaper in Ipswich, Queensland.
		Lawsuits from ex-members forced Hanson to repay approximately A$500,000 of public funding won at the 1998 Queensland election amid claims that the party was fraudulently registered.

	The rise and decline of Pauline Hanson's One Nation
		In the middle of last year, Pauline Hanson's One Nation was scaling the heights of electoral success, attracting nearly 25 percent of the vote and winning 11 seats in the Queensland state elections.
		Pauline Hanson first came to prominence after being disendorsed by the Liberal Party in the 1996 federal elections for airing her grievances about welfare payments to Aborigines.
		For the ruling elite and media barons, Hanson and her One Nation party, which was formed in early 1997, became convenient and timely vehicles for shifting the whole spectrum of official politics to the right.

	Pauline Hanson
		Hanson was jailed in August for electoral fraud, apparently ending a career built on rage and battered by turmoil.
		She quickly formed her own party, Pauline Hanson's One Nation, which unexpectedly captured 11 seats in the state parliament in 1998, and attracted a million votes in a federal election the same year.
		Hanson presented herself as a woman of the people: straight-talking and straightforward, she was willing to say what many Australians thought, but were afraid to admit.

	Pauline Hanson
		My public position on the extreme right One Nation Party of Pauline Hanson has been that as she threatens the interests of the bourgeoisie with her anti-Asian racism she would be lucky to get 4% of the poll.
		I think that what has to be learnt is that while we have in the past seen Hanson as a loony, and only ratbags would support her, it is not so, and the threat she represents and is able to gather is far more serious.
		Hanson and Howard want to totally disposses the aboriginal people, national sorrow is only the recognition of injustice and giving it a form,it is a class issue and the working class are as much to blame as the ruling class for the stolen children.

	Pauline Hanson: who is the real villain?
		As Hanson's offence involved the misappropriation of funds perhaps Judge Wolfe's sentence was an expression of particular loathing for this kind of crime.
		When we compare Wolfe's sentencing record with the sentence she gave Hanson, I think we would be right to deduce that either her previous sentences were too light or that the Hanson sentence was too severe.
		Hanson is a naïve and ignorant woman, so why didn't the brilliant Abbott and his merry band of politically sophisticated supporters simply take her to task in the public arena?

	CNN.com - Whatever happened to Pauline Hanson? - November 1, 2001
		Hanson's plain speaking style tapped a vein in conservative rural and regional Australians who were feeling the impact of market deregulation and an internationalizing economy.
		In July this year, Hanson and other party officials were charged with fraud stemming from the alleged illegal registration of the party and her subsequent acceptance of electoral funding.
		Hanson is fighting the charges, which carry a maximum sentence of 10 years' jail.

	ENOUGH ROPE with Andrew Denton - episode 60: Pauline Hanson (20/09/2004) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		PAULINE HANSON: Brought about by the media and their perception of me and their biased opinions and by their editors and their chiefs and the owners of the newspapers.
		PAULINE HANSON: There were some radicals that tagged themselves to me. They saw me come along and, you know, this woman came along and they thought there was their platform to go and say whatever they wanted to.
		PAULINE HANSON: You know, what annoys me so much is the Australian people are being suppressed in their views and their opinions by policies and legislation set down by our so-called parliamentarians.

	COMMENT: Behind the fall of Pauline Hanson - 20 September 2003
		Pauline Hanson still has an appeal, but whatever happens most people feel it is not appropriate for her to be behind bars, and whatever faults she has, she is not seen as a person acting with criminal intent.
		Pauline Hanson was found guilty by all twelve jurors, on all counts against her name, as is the requirement in Queensland.
		My verdict on Pauline Hanson is that she is the victim of her own folly and the movement created around her, but she does not deserve to be locked in a prison cell for three years.

	THE AUSTRALIAN PARTY SYSTEM, PAULINE HANSON’S ONE NATION, AND THE PARTY CARTELISATION THESIS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Or as Paul Sheehan, from the right, put it: ‘the key to Pauline Hanson’s rise in Australian politics are these words’, from her maiden speech: ‘“for far too long ordinary Australians have been kept out of major debates by the political parties”’ (1998, 222).
		But Hanson and David Ettridge, jailed under that state’s Criminal Code for dishonestly inducing registration of a political party (and, in Hanson’s case, defrauding the public purse) were not the hapless victims of a rule that discriminated in favour of parties already in the parliament.
		What brought Hanson and Ettridge undone was not the height of the hurdle set by a political cartel but their own decision to eschew a large membership while pretending to have one.

	Green Left - Issues: Why Pauline Hanson hates Resistance
		The reason for Hanson's hatred for Resistance is clear when you compare the size of Hanson's own meetings to far larger counter-demonstrations outside, counter-demonstrations that Resistance has been very active in helping to organise.
		Hanson and her supporters have tried to claim that those protesting, including Resistance, were denying her “freedom of speech” and were a violent rabble.
		Hanson's One Nation has scheduled a meeting for that night in Dandenong, a heavily migrant area in Melbourne's outer south-eastern suburbs.

	Australians Not Amused by Hanson's Detractors (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)

	The Pauline Hanson phenomenon
		The launching of her party -- Pauline Hanson's One Nation -- was given extensive publicity, followed by saturation coverage of her book and its claims of Aboriginal cannibalism.
		Hanson and her backers have been able to exploit the political vacuum created by the Labor and union leaderships' open abandonment of any defence of working class conditions and their adoption, in toto, of the corporate agenda of "international competitiveness".
		The emergence of Pauline Hanson is a warning that the betrayals by the old organisations of the working class, backed by the entire milieu of middle class radicals, have created the conditions where such movements can again rear their heads.

		Hanson has called to "reindustrialize" Australia, through the use of tariff protection, and the availability of credit for agriculture and industry at 2% rates of interest, to be provided by a national bank.

		As I reported here in August, Hanson was sentenced to the astonishing term of three years’ jail on an alleged technical violation of election law.
		Already the fear of a Hanson Rising in her home state of Queensland has spooked Labour Party Premier [= governor] Peter Beattie—a sort of antipodean Tony Blair, smirking, smooth, modish, publicity-obsessed, contemptuous of old-style working-class mores—into accepting the resignation of the State Justice Department’s Director-General, Ken Levy, as fall guy for the failed prosecution.
		In Pauline’s future, the biggest imponderable is her relationship with the One Nation party itself.

	[No title]
		Mrs Hanson, the clearly preferred choice of the voters of Blair, 'lost' simply because Australia's compulsory preferential system of voting has been corrupted by the collusion of the main parties.
		I assure international observers of the Hanson phenomenon that rumours of One Nation's 'demise' are greatly exaggerated.
		Hanson is anti-multiculturalism, and so she has infuriated the ethnocrats, the brain-dead politically correct, and especially the Labor party.
