Original Note:
Senator Pauline Hanson is not a "convicted racist". The recent Federal Court case against her in which she was found to have violated section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act was not a criminal proceeding and hence no conviction was possible. https://www.hrlc.org.au/human-rights-case-summaries/2024/11/25/faruqi-v-hanson https://www.legislation.gov.au/C2004A00274/latest/text https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/conviction https://x.com/PaulineHansonOz/status/1861961333052420501 https://x.com/PaulineHansonOz/status/1861961376710955192
