We are one, we are many

There’s a job going with the NSW’s One Nation party after former leader Mark Latham got the boot from federal leader Pauline Hanson. Hanson announced the firing yesterday, saying his removal was down to the party’s poor results at the state election – but Latham took to Facebook to criticise the “bizarre” decision in a long post. Latham’s side of the story is that the “Queensland takeover … is about money.” He is pointing the finger at Hanson, saying that he’d “stood in the way of attempts to misuse our funds”. Being kicked out of One Nation doesn’t mean that Latham is out of the state parliament – he says he’ll use that platform for “more to say on this money matter when the NSW Parliament sits next week”. One Nation now has 2 members in the NSW upper house.
