another great Australian.

On Monday One Nation leader Senator Hanson approvingly read out to theSenate, a comment on her Facebook page from 'Rebecca,' whiledelivering a stinging postmortem on the defeated Voice referendum.

'Can we stop using the term Traditional Owners?' Senator Hanson quotes the postasasking.

'Aborigines did not and do not own Australia.Theywere original inhabitants, and that is it.'

Mother Nature provided all what Aboriginals claim as theirs.

They did not buildAyer's Rock, the Three Sisters, Kakadu, the riversystems, the mountains etc.

'They used the land and its natural resources and structures that were alreadythere.

'They did not construct or design a damn thing, and just as they continue theydo today, they use and take whatever is available tothem.

'That’s how a lot of Australians feel.'

Senator Lidia Thorpe's interjected: 'Not all Australians'.

'What people tend to forget, like Senator Thorpe, is that I was born here too,so were millions of other Australians and the migrants who have come here,'
Senator Hanson continued.

'All I have asked for is equality for all Australians. If you need it, you getthat helping hand. If you don’t need it, then fine you don't.

'If you work hard for what you need and that's been proven by the 11 Senatorsin this Parliament who actually are of Aboriginaldescent, and yet you want special treatment.”

'And you don’t deserve it, no more thanmillions of other Australians,' Senator Hansonsaid with a glare across the chamber.

The shouted interruptions increased until Senate President Sue Lines intervened and told both Senators to take their seats.

After a telling pause she told Senator Hanson to resume, but to address remarks to her as the chair.

Senator Hanson resumed and asserted that Australia 'does not only belong to theStone Age hunter gathers discovered by the British explorers and settlers'.

'I have to ask the question what special or unique contribution entitle IndigenousAustralians to special or unique rights greater than anybodyelse.

The answer is none whatsoever,' Senator Hanson said.

'There has only ever been one nation on this continent founded on the first ofJanuary 1901 so there cannot be a legitimate treaty and thismeans, there is no requirement for so-called “truth telling,” she said.

'This is rewriting history to maximize settlements in a treaty, just forgetit.’

'We are all Australians together and should be treated equally.'

Earlier in the same speech Senator Hanson had singled Senator Thorpe out for special mention.

'There is no war on Indigenous Australians as Senator Thorpe pretends,' Senator Hanson said.

'That she sits in parliament along with other Indigenous people, shows thisclaim for the lie that it is.

'Senator is no victim on her taxpayer funded salary, and most Indigenous peoplereject the idea they are victims.'

Senator Hanson also accused Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and otherproponents of the Voice of being 'out of touch'.
