Anti-immigration rally held on Parliament House lawns
One Nation leader Pauline Hanson told crowds at an anti-immigration rally on Sunday that she is not opposed to migration but “mass” migration and insists her “tune has not changed” on the topic.
Speaking at a rally on the lawns of Parliament House on Sunday, organised by March For Australia, Hanson told the crowd migration needed to be done “in a managed way” with “the right people who want to assimilate”.
Nationals leader Matt Canavan also used his speech at the rally to tout the tough-on-immigration policies the federal coalition has pledged to implement if it wins power.
The comments came after Opposition leader Angus Taylor declared migrants from “bad countries” posed a higher risk to Australia.
These latest remarks on immigrations were condemned by the Albanese government while the Lebanese Muslim Association labelled Taylor’s language as dog whistling.
