Fossilismus & Rechtspopulismus sind übrigens nicht vom Geschlecht abhängig, wie ja auch mehrere europäische Politikerinnen beweisen. Unglaublich spannende Recherche von Barbara Barkhausen in der Stuttgarter Zeitung von heute, S. 7 (leider bisher nicht auch online zu finden): *Australiens gefährlichste Frauenallianz* „Milliardärin hilft Demagogin: Wie die [Bergbau-]Industrielle Gina Rinehart den Aufstieg von Pauline Hanson fördert und damit den Rechtspopulismus stärkt.“ Auch politikwissenschaftlich sehr lesenswert! #Australien #Fossilismus #Rechtspopulismus #Bergbau #Politik #GinaRinehart #PaulineHanson #Politikwissenschaft #Partei #OneNation

#GinaRinehartsOneNation owner #GinaRinehart has big plans for the north of Australia. #GinaRinehart spoke at the #NationalBushSummit in #Townsville last month - a #NewsCorp event sponsored by her company, #HancockProspecting - she said the #Queensland government could give some #FreeLand to "the #Israelis" to turn Townsville into a base for #Israeli companies to develop their #MilitaryWeapons systems. "[We could] encourage the Israelis to develop and build their advanced war #drones and/or other advances in defence and improve upon their Israeli-style domes," she said. She said Queensland could also give free land to #ElonMusk (the world's first trillionaire) for his #SpaceX satellite construction and launches. A 'Northern Economic Zone' for Australia But one of her biggest policy ideas is to turn the top half of the Australian continent into a "special economic zone". In 2010, Rinehart helped to create the Australians for Northern Development & Economic Vision (ANDEV) think tank to promote the idea, along with Ron Manners from the #MannkalFoundation (a long-time affiliate of the #AtlasNetwork). ANDEV says the "Northern Economic Zone" should have significant tax advantages to attract investment. It says dam construction within the zone should be encouraged to capture the north's annual rainfall for agricultural purposes. It says Australia should adopt special migration agreements where a condition of the visa is that a foreign worker must live and work within the economic zone. Between 2010 and 2013, ANDEV worked with the #InstituteOfPublicAffairs (IPA), a #neoliberal think tank (another affiliate of the Atlas Network), to push the idea into Australia's public debate. #Rinehart. Last week, she said there should be no personal income tax, no payroll tax, no licence fees, and no stamp duty inside the special economic zone. Her massive #mining and agricultural interests located in the northern half of Australia would presumably be among those to benefit from the tax advantages. Earlier this year, #PaulineHanson was #gifted a #plane by a Rinehart company, as well as $2 million in #donations from the #billionaire's friends and business colleagues (stockbroker #AngusAitken and his wife Sarah, #AdamGiles and the geologist #IanPilmer). Adam Giles, the chief executive officer of #HancockAgriculture (one of Rinehart's companies) has also "personally gifted" One Nation a new Ford Ranger to help the party campaign for the 2028 federal election. Will Pauline Hanson and One Nation take up the "Northern Economic Zone" cause for Rinehart? #auspol #RWNJ #Trumpist https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-07-15/one-nation-economic-policies-reserve-bank-gina-rinehart/106909282

Crikey | Hanson pleads for help, the ADF pleads for noodles, and Cochon pleads to see Milton Dick’s $485 tie by Cochon Truffier AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. One Nation leader Pauline Hanson has been found to have billed Australian taxpayers almost $16,000 for private charter flights to flood‑hit regions of Queensland—a claim that contradicts her earlier statement that the travel would cost “no cost to the taxpayer.” The tax‑funded journey began on Gina Rinehart’s Gulfstream G700, flying from the Sunshine Coast to Mount Isa, and then continued to Cloncurry and Julia Creek before returning to Mount Isa.
