Pauline Hanson (Queensland, Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party) Share this | Hansard source

Considering that Senator O'Neill has raised One Nation's input into the media reform bill, let me answer some of those questions. No grubby deals were done; that's what the Labor Party would actually love everyone in this country to think. It is as if they had never been in government and actually negotiated deals on legislation with the Greens, the crossbenchers or anyone else—and they're still trying to do their deals. As I've said, they still try to talk to us to get us to change our opinions and minds when I come into this chamber. When we look at legislation put up by the government, we look at it on its merits—will it be good for the Australian people—and that's the way it still stands. I don't do the so-called grubby deals. That's what the Labor Party is used to and that's what you've done for years and years with your union mates, with the unionists and all the rest of them. Let's put it in the right perspective of how your grubby deals have been done.
