Anthony Albanese (Grayndler, Australian Labor Party, Prime Minister) Share this | Hansard source

When I came into this House, in 1996, a fairly famous redhead was elected and used to sit up in that back corner. At that time, Pauline Hanson was dis-endorsed by the Liberal Party. I don't know what the voting record is in the Senate there, but, as much as we talk about legislation, we put her automatically in the column of the LNP—an LNP that has said, very clearly, in the election that's underway at the moment in Queensland, that they'll give preferences to One Nation. If they're worried about preferences going to the Greens and about the Greens being elected to parliament, I would say that the only reason there are Greens in the Queensland parliament is that the Queensland LNP put them there with their preferences.
