Once again Labor and the Greens have taken an alarming and undemocratic step by blocking my bill that sought to uphold the biological definitions of 'man' and 'woman' and protect the rights of women before it even had a chance to be debated. This silencing of important discussions is not only an attack on free speech but also a complete disregard for the voices of Australians who support One Nation’s stance on protecting biological reality. As elected representatives, we all have a duty to allow debate on issues that matter to Australians. Women in this country have fought for their rights for generations, and it’s outrageous that their rights are being undermined by a small minority pushing a radical agenda. You can’t disrupt society as a whole when the majority of people in this country are either male or female. By allowing this small group to impinge on women’s rights, their private spaces, change rooms, and sporting events, you are disregarding the very women who have fought so long and hard for their place in society. How dare Labor, the Greens, and Senators Pocock, Tyrell and Thorpe deny women these rights without an open and honest debate! Biological sex is a reality, and it’s critical in how we deal with these issues. It’s quite telling when feminists, who’ve never supported me before, are coming out and saying, “I’ve got to support Pauline Hanson on this one. She’s right.” So what are Labor and the Greens so afraid of? Is this purely about securing votes or political gain? Common sense must prevail. Listen to the Australian people. They want debate. They want answers. They want fairness. They don’t want to be shut down. This government, with the help of a few crossbenchers, is doing everything it can to silence those who stand up for biological reality and women’s rights. Australians deserve better. It’s time to stand up for women’s rights, for biological reality, and for the democratic process. Let’s have the debate, not shut it down. It’s time to put the people of Australia first. This video contains the full debate on the bill so I encourage you to watch it, hear the arguments for yourself, and see the pathetic arguments Labor and the Greens are using to shut down these important discussions are being silenced in Parliament.
