Default Hanson moving to UK....!!!

Yikes....what does everyone think about this? She's apparently moving because she's fed-up of all the migrants in Oz. Isn't she in for a shock then!!!!

I bet she won't stay long and move back Down Under with her tail between her legs.... She might find a rural village Ireland more to her liking tbh

This would be enough to put me off going back!

With a likely change in government and other relatively prominent anti-immigration parties in the UK, however minor, maybe she sees this as a "better" environment.

Please explain!

I read about this in the news but it didn't say anything about her moving to Britain because she thinks there's too many immigrants here.

I think Mrs Hanson is often VERY misunderstood! All she has ever actually said, if you listen to her speeches etc, is that immigration should be properly controlled and that government spending should be directed at things that will benefit Australians (including those who have legally immigrated here from other countries).

She also made some comments about certain suburbs being overwhelmed by Asian immigrants, but that doesn't mean she has anything against Asian people per se, and I honestly don't think she does. What she dislikes (and to be frank so do I) is people who move to another country, make no effort to find work, make no effort to speak the language of their new country, complain and criticise the culture and customs of the new country and try to change them to those of where they come from, and generally end up being a financial burden, or worse still committing crime.

I'm not saying I agree with everything she said, because I don't. Also she often made the mistake of not thinking some of her ideas through thoroughly enough, and made some very poor choices of words in her speeches.

I have no comment to make on the aleged electoral fraud she was supposedly involved in because I honestly don't know enough about it.

I think she's basically a decent person trying to stand up for what she honestly believes most Australians want (and she's probably about 70% right on what they want).

She did have some valid points and ideas, and I think if you really study her political career (as I have as part of my tertiary studies) you will probably find yourself agreeing with a fair bit of what she said.

She wouldn't make a good prime-minister by any stretch of the imagination, mainly because she just doesn't have enough understanding of what it takes to run a country (economy, law and never mind international relations). At the end of the day I think she's not a very good speaker or politician, but also not a bad person.

I've no doubt the people in whichever British town she decides to call home will welcome her with open arms and be happy to buy Fish and Chips from her (that's probably something she was really good at, or so I'd imagine!)
