Pauline Hanson thanks the North Burnett region

I’D LIKE to say thanks to all the local people who took the time to catch up with myself and fellow One Nation senator Malcolm Roberts during our trip to the region recently.

Malcolm and I met with hundreds of locals across the region, including Coalstoun Lakes, who are battling for a reliable water supply for their farms, at the wonderful community event that is the Biggenden campdraft, we joined in to honour our Vietnam veterans at the Maryborough RSL and also met with timber industry representatives who are battling Labor’s insane laws that will impact on their incomes, sawmills, local jobs and the economies of local towns.

It was a busy weekend but well worth it. Malcolm and I have listened to local people, learned about the various local needs, and will push for positive solutions.

While One Nation is small compared to the major parties, we will continue to work hard to raise the matters that are important to the people of Australia and push forward to achieve positive outcomes. It is always an uphill battle – especially with both the Liberals and Labor against us – but we won’t give up.

Our visits to places like the North Burnett remind us just how important it is that we keep raising our voices for a better Australia. Once again, thanks to everyone in Coalstoun Lakes, Biggenden and Maryborough who made us feel so welcome. Your hospitality is much appreciated.

— Pauline Hanson,
Senator for Queensland,
Leader of One Nation
