One Nation leader Pauline Hanson has ripped into US vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris, accusing her of “telling lies” in the hope people will be fooled.
Hanson is one of a number of Australian politicians and celebrities who are giving their opinion on the historic election.
Taking to her Facebook page, Hanson posted a video of her interview with Sky News host Paul Murray on his evening show.
It featured an election ad voiced by Democrat Harris which stated that “equitable treatment” means that “everyone ends up at the same place”.
In her Facebook post, Hanson derided the ad as “feel-good nonsense” that will “lead us down the path to poverty and pain”.
“You simply cannot create a just and fair system where everyone is rewarded the same regardless of effort. It has never worked and it never will.
“Sadly that doesn’t seem to stop left-wing politicians the world over from telling the same lies in the hope that people will be fooled.”
But while the Senator has been outspoken about the election, MPs of mainstream Aussie parties have decided to remain quiet.
Senior Labour figures, who were expected to back the Democrats, haven’t mentioned anything.
Even the Prime Minister has stayed silent, probably so he doesn’t aggravate either side of the close-call election.
