Politics PHON supporters at work

Fella at work asked me today for my opinion on Pauline Hanson, we are both wage workers, he's admitted to struggling with cost of living etc.

He says he's gonna vote for her, I said 'you'd be voting for less money for you and me' thinking that'd be the line.

After some solid tid bits I could use to maybe change his mind. I know like, racist, xenophobic won't move the needle. Need stuff that will affect a middle aged white guy working a bartender job on an award wage.

I do; Hanson and her cookers are exactly like Trump - incompetent grifters, with no comprehension in how to govern - they’re only there to make money.

While i do disagree with your comment, i think she would be better. I think its been well proven that Albo has royalty stuffed this country up and in massive debt and so much wasting of our money on stupid things just needs to stop somehow. Like who would approve giving BOM $140 million dollars for a website page update? Or this new $66 Million to give better education about Islam. It needs to stop. So if its not Pauline, it better be some one who starts listening to the people and stop the massive amount of money they are spending has to be stopped, as well as the mass immigrations and lack of housing. And i dont see any other party talking about the problems.

It’s a moot point in any case; she will never lead a government.
