Opposition Leader Angus Taylor criticized One Nation's economic policies, calling them unsustainable. Pauline Hanson responded by urging him to collaborate against the current government.
Pauline Hanson says Angus Taylor must stop "denigrating" One Nation, after the opposition leader delivered his strongest rebuke yet of the right-wing party at a speech in Sydney yesterday.
Taylor told The Sydney Institute that One Nation's plan for Australia would "send us broke", accused the party of being a "column of smoke", and that their policies would cost over a trillion dollars over a decade.
Without naming Hanson, the opposition leader said One Nation's policies will lead to a "eternity of pain" if her party gained power.
But in a video posted to social media from London, Hanson hit back, saying she was not Taylor's enemy and appealed to him to work together.
She accused the opposition leader of copying One Nation's policies in his budget-in-reply speech in May.
"I'm very disappointed with this. Angus, I'm not your enemy. We both need to get rid of the Labor, the Greens government, that toxic government that's done so much damage this country," Hanson says.
"A lot of the policies that you say won't work is not the truth at all. Let's work together, that's what I keep saying all the time. The people of Australia are crying out for change. Listen to the people Angus and work with me. Stop denigrating One Nation and work together."
