Pauline Hanson on Protests, Truckies, & Beetroot on Brugers

She's home for one night between flights, and Senator Pauline Hanson isn't pulling any punches. Luke Bona sits down with the One Nation leader for a full solo interview, starting with yesterday's nationwide student walkout against her and One Nation — and her blunt response to it, including a secret recording of a teacher she says abused students in class, which she says she's about to release.From there: whether she could genuinely become Prime Minister off the back of One Nation's poll surge, how she'd handle Donald Trump one-on-one, the AUKUS tightrope between the US and China, Albanese's awkward melon moment with Japan's PM, her friendship with Gina Rinehart, the real cost of Nauru, overtime tax reform, a push for a national truckies' apprenticeship scheme, and the fish and chip shop she ran for a decade before politics.Guests: Senator Pauline Hanson (Leader, Pauline Hanson's One Nation)⚠️ Contains a protester's sign quoting strong language (not repeated in these notes) and a brief, non-graphic reference to self-harm in immigration detention.00:00 Welcome back, Senator Hanson00:34 The National Union of Students walkout01:29 The high school protest sign that went viral04:53 Are the kids being led, or thinking for themselves?05:19 "I'm going to release it" — the secret teacher recording06:11 Marked down from an A to a C- for writing about Hanson07:26 Should classrooms run CCTV?10:11 Could Hanson become PM?
