Does anyone else see a touch of irony in Pauline Hanson going to live in the UK then complaining about it being overrun by immigrants and refugees?

Earlier this year she decided to sell up her property in Australia and move to Britain, in part because she was disappointed at how Australia had changed (meaning, she yearns for the good old days of the White Australia policy).  Clearly she failed miserably at doing her homework about her future residence.

”I love England but so many people want to leave there because it’s overrun with immigrants and refugees,”

Well duh, Pauline, a bit of watching TV or reading just about anything would tell you that England is chockers with immigrants.

Then the rest of Europe didn’t escape her attention.

”France is becoming filled with Muslims and the French and English are losing their way of life because they’re controlled by foreigners in the European Union.”

So Australia is not so bad after all?

”Problems are worse over there than they are in Australia and Australia is still the best place in the world to live but the same sorts of awful things are happening here too. Residents of Commonwealth countries who want to live here are discriminated against in favour of others.”

But we are going down the drain, according to Pauline.

So, where might she find a new home that’s not overrun by those nasty immigrants:

• Europe – nope, see above, she’s already looked there
• America – nope. it’s full of them too

I can think of a few places that might have the racial purity she’s looking for, such as Iraq, Afghanistan, much of Africa – no-one really ever wants to migrate to these places.

Oh wait, just a small problem there, these places are full of dark skinned folks, and I’m guessing Pauline doesn’t want to hang out with them, even though they mostly are neither immigrants or refugees.

It should come as no surprise to anyone that by “immigrants and refugees”, Pauline and her supporters really mean Muslims and Africans, Indians and possibly Asians.

And it is to Australia’s shame that political leaders on both sides of politics here pander to these people and desperately seek to curry favour with them, so desperate are they for votes.
