Despite the whole drought thing going on at the moment, the National Party have today confirmed that there is another issue that is slightly more pressing right now.
Pauline Hanson, taking credit for ‘their policies.’
Speaking from Canberra this morning, National’s Leader Michael McCormack and Deputy Leader Bridget McKenzie have moved to address their concerns about One Nation trying to score points off the back of ‘their policies.’
This comes after Pauline Hanson had a sit down with Alan Jones to claim she got the Dairy Code over the line, a policy the Nats had ‘been pushing’ but couldn’t make happen until Pauline started making life hard for the government.
“Look, obviously we are very concerned about the drought, and we are working on a lot of great policy on that,” began McCormack.
“But, it’s extremely important, that before we implement any of these policies after talking about them for an extended period of time while people on the land face the prospect of foreclosure, we get the credit we deserve.”
Mckenzie then interrupted;
“That was my policy Pauline and you know it,” said the angry Deputy Leader referring to Hanson’s efforts to get the mandatory dairy code over the line.
“Anyway, going on, it’s important that we get credit where credit is due.”
“Because getting the political points on the board is more important than the policy being implementing and having a positive impact on farmers livelihoods.”
