I do have to question if that is giving her more attention, eg. "interrupted by protest banner" vs "Pauline Hanson's press club address" really what we want?

With that out the way she said all the things that would have conservatives locked down for their vote, I don't think it'll be enough to topple Labor but I can definitely see them collapsing the national party and liberal party vote significantly, a one nation opposition party, what a world

Muslims, transgenders, australian culture, immigration, cost of living...the stars have aligned for her it seems

This was a press club address like no other. Lengthy, fiery, action-packed. Now even the police have been called in.

One Nation would be thrilled with the attention.

And to emphasise my perspective, it's harmful to supply "airtime without criticism" - that stunt drew attention to a sharp critique. It hijacked what would have otherwise been a notable occasion regardless. And as a minor side effect, the event highlighted the party's fragility.
