'A Lot Riding' on Pauline Hanson's Press Club Foray
ACT police are aware of possible protest activity as Pauline Hanson delivers her first leader’s address, with organizers seeking to disrupt One Nation’s rise.
- Left-Wing protesters plan to rally outside the National Press Club in Barton on Wednesday as One Nation leader Pauline Hanson delivers her inaugural leader's address at the fully booked venue.
- Canberra Socialists executive council member Carter Chryse, organizing the protest, stated the group wants to emulate the "heroic" anti-Trump movement in the United States and "disrupt" the right-wing populist party's ascendance.
- Senator Hanson, who overtook Anthony Albanese as preferred prime minister in a Resolve poll this month, has allegedly raised millions of dollars with fundraisers featuring $2000 ticket entries.
- ACT Policing stated it is "aware of possible protest activity in Barton," warning that illegal behavior will not be tolerated, while National Press Club chief executive Maurice Reilly welcomes peaceful demonstrations.
- Discussions for the address began six months ago, and Hanson has promised to run a candidate in every electorate at the next federal election, positioning her party as an alternative to Australia's political establishment.
