There are entire libraries of balanced books about Pauline Hanson, and some of them, when written about a politician of this vintage, are a sort of bullshit, because they grant a patient hearing to thirty years of stories that have already been heard, fact-checked, and quietly disproved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is, however, fair. Fair means no invented quotes, no straw men, and no pretending Pauline said something she didn't. There is no need to invent. Over thirty years in Australian public life, Hanson has said an enormous and well-documented number of things, on national television, in Senate Hansard, and into the boom mics of journalists who could not believe their luck. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is barely time to summarise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInside: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy the cost-of-living crisis is real, and why every single One Nation solution to it would make it worse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat is actually driving housing prices, supermarket prices, your energy bill, and your stagnant wage, and which of the people in your life it has nothing to do with\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA short, brutal tour of the One Nation operating model: who they put on the news, who they leave off the news, and why\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe thirty-year highlight reel: the resignations, the brawls, the Russian honeymoon, and the new $2.1 million plane gifted by the richest person in Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat a fed-up Australian can actually do on the Saturday of the 2026 federal election that is neither a vote for Pauline nor a shrug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you are not at least a little bit angry about Australia in 2026, you are either independently wealthy, very young, or asleep.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is for everyone else.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRead it before the next Saturday that matters\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Everyday Middle","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47882907943063,"sku":"9781764678803","price":914.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781764678803.webp?v=1781097970","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/australia-is-f-ked-but-dont-vote-one-nation-9781764678803","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
