Should Australia revisit or start another cash for clunkers scheme? Getting more aussies into cheaper to run and safer newer EV? Reducing our reliance on fossil fuels? thedriven.io/2026/10/04/i...

It's time to revisit the cash for clunkers idea - but in a way that makes it fair on households
Australians driving older petrol and diesel vehicles often pay the most at the bowser, spend more on repairs and rely on cars with the weakest safety equipment.

San Diego is not expendable. Our lives are not bargaining chips. The President’s words were reckless, dangerous, and a betrayal of the people he swore to protect. I love this city, and I will never stay quiet when someone treats our families, neighbors, and communities like they are disposable.
Tonight, the President of the United States stood on a stage and told a cheering crowd, “Let them take out San Diego.” He went on to call the destruction of our city “a very small price to pay.”
 
San Diego is home to 1.4 million people. We are workers, families, children, veterans, immigrants, sailors, Marines, and people who love this city and call it home. We are not expendable. Los Angeles is not expendable. No American city is.
 
For a President to speak so casually about an attack on the people he is sworn to protect is reckless, dangerous, and treasonous. At a time when American servicemembers and their families are already bearing the consequences of his war with Iran, San Diegans deserve a President focused on keeping them safe, not talking about sacrificing them.
 
Every elected leader in San Diego, regardless of party, should condemn these comments without qualification. There should be nothing partisan about standing up for our city and the people who live here.
 
Our lives are not bargaining chips.
 
Donald, keep our name out of your mouth.

Excerpts from the tremendous public service & public resource that is the HANSON DOSSIER - the "complete public accountability record of Pauline Hanson. Drawn from court judgments, parliamentary records, AEC data, and verified journalism" Share it & keep it handy‼️ 👉 thehansonrecord.com
Excerpt from the HANSON DOSSIER

Senator Hanson had a tendency to make racist, discriminatory, hateful, derogatory and Islamophobic statements, particularly in relation to persons of colour, migrants to Australia and Muslims. She was found to be an argumentative witness who would say anything which came to mind if she felt it would suit her at the time. - Justice Angus Stewart, Federal Court of Australia - Faruqi v Hanson, November 2024. 
This is a formal judicial finding made after hearing Hanson testify under oath. It is not a political opinion. It is the considered judgment of an Australian Federal Court judge.Excerpt from a section titled The Verdict in the HANSON DOSSIER

Pauline Hanson has spent 30 years telling Australians she is one of them. A battler. A plain-speaker. A politician who cuts through the rubbish and fights for ordinary people against a self-serving political class and the wealthy elites who have rigged the system. That story does not match what she has actually done.

She has been found guilty of racial discrimination by the Federal Court of Australia. She has been suspended from the Senate and censured 55 votes to 5. Her senior staff were caught on hidden camera trying to sell Australia's gun laws to American lobbyists for up to $20 million. She personally cast doubt on the Port Arthur massacre on hidden camera. She has accepted a $2 million plane from Australia's richest billionaire and undisclosed jet flights from that same billionaire. She billed taxpayers to attend that billionaire's fundraising events on a luxury cruise ship. She placed her daughter in a $150,000 taxpayer-funded job and banned the journalist who asked about it from all future access. She attended just 12 per cent of Senate estimates hearings over her career while being paid a full senator's salary. She promoted vaccine misinformation linking vaccines to autism and cancer. She published a book claiming Aboriginal women ate their babies to "demonstrate savagery" and used it to raise funds for her party.Excerpt from a section titled The Verdict in the HANSON DOSSIER cont'd

While doing all of that, she has voted against wage increases for workers, against childcare funding for families, against housing affordability policies, against public school funding, against renewable energy, against renters' rights, against COVID vaccine urgency as Australians were dying in aged care, and against nearly every social safety net mechanism that would actually help the working-class Australians she claims to represent.

She changed her party's constitution in 2017 to give herself lifetime leadership and the sole right to choose her own successor, making One Nation constitutionally indistinguishable from a personal fiefdom. Seven senators have quit or been expelled from the party since 2016. The party founded on anti-establishment populism is now bankrolled by a mining billionaire worth tens of billions of dollars, flying on her private jet and attending her fundraisers on a luxury cruise ship.

The people who pay the price for Pauline Hanson's political career are the ordinary Australians she claims to represent. The record is public. The choice is yours.Excerpt from the HANSON DOSSIER

Table comparing the policy position of One Nation, Labor, Coalition and the Greens on 13 policies relating to: Climate Science, Gun Laws, Worker Pay Rises, ABC and SBS, Renewable Energy, Housing Affordability, Childcare, Public School Funding, Abortion Rights, UN Membership, Multiculturalism, Trans Healthcare, and Press Freedom

[On every single one, One Nation has a regressive, frequently far-right radical stance]
