Pauline Hanson admits her plan to reduce migration by 750,000 people would shrink Australia’s GDP. She then says she doesn’t trust what economists say. But sure, let’s trust Pauline Hanson’s economic credentials instead. Right. 🙄 #auspol

@PaulineHansonOz doesn't think economist's always get it right but she does. Hahahaha wake me up when she's gone

@PaulineHansonOz So arrogant it's not funny.

A journalist would have asked her for examples of where economists have been wrong. Not that there aren’t plenty of examples; I just know there isn’t a chance in hell this moron could cite one.

Kieran Gilbert answers the questions for her. This is kinda softball interview Pauline Hanson is willing to do. She get's special treated at Sky News.

Thinking of all the poor economists today😢 Feeling broken, devastated they've been called into question by Pauline one of the most ignorant xxxxxxx's that walk among us. Do try to Ignore her & her latest round of racist uneducated attacks on everyone 'checks notes' but Gina.

Gina Rinehart dropped out her economics degree.

@adamnicotera Refuses to trust economists—Yet, idolises Trump & Putin. Pauline believes everything they say & agrees with everything they do. Also says that 99% of Australians want a leader exactly like Putin & Trump. Trusts Tommy Robinson who is an operative for you know who. JFC 🙄

No we still have AI slop.

Another of Sen Hanson’s those are “book figures” comments (as in the 1996 interview). Still doesn’t trust education, or research by experts. If only she attended Senate Estimates > 22% time and learned.

@PaulineHansonOz studied economics at the university of fish n Chips. She graduated with a degree in BPE ie: Batchelor of Please Explain

who's going to pay our national debt? Just the interest alone isn't serviceable. We are doomed. I'm already working 6 days a week in a shitty warehouse. Tax me any more and I will be getting centrelink instead

Pauline hates those fancy-book-learnin' experts!

Superb look at Hansen's world without migrants.

@DaisyIsStarDust I noticed on the new guardian podcast … they don’t believe anything - just dispute everything - no facts , no data - just dispute

@DaisyIsStarDust Imagine having such a high opinion of yourself that you genuinely believe your personal opinion matters more than reality, evidence and the data.

@DaisyIsStarDust It’s sad when people follow the BS

@PaulineHansonOz and @OneNationAus Very clearly economically illiterate!

@PaulineHansonOz @OneNationAus Was Pauline Hanson’s fish and chip shop actually successful? She has claimed it was, but there were reports that she struggled to find a buyer when she tried to sell it.

@virgotweet Hanson wants to burn the joint to the ground. For her rich mates.

Just a know-it-all not willing to learn from people with expertise. I know it comes with the territory of being a politician who answers to the donors but compare this to eg. David Pocock & David Shoebridge, who ask questions all the time on our behalf. Hanson has no curiosity.

@virgotweet Pauline left school at 15, she worked in various small businesses and jobs, including running a fish and chip shop, a plumbing business, and working as a shop assistant. Fine credentials for running an economy.😉 #auspol

Another Pauline brain fart not that she has a brain 🧠

An arse for a brain?

@wendoureeswans And theres the problem …. Doesn’t trust the experts, anyone who provides a different narrative or disagrees with her…

She doesn’t trust anyone, she’s a copycat of Trump-economics. He’s a 6x bankrupted businessman. She couldn’t make a decent go of a small fish and chip shop, sold and lost heaps of $, and he’s headed towards bankrupting the US so far $41 Trillion debt. She’ll do that here.

She doesn't trust the Eccomonists says the yr 7 graduate.... So who does she trust pray tell? GiNahhh? Murdoch? Ashby? Herself? TRUMP? Seems everyone except a professional.

So she doesn't trust what economists say, but we're meant to believe her? She isn't serious surely

Trumpian to the end. All experts are elitists, so she just runs with it. Turning out a treat in the USA, isn’t it?

I trust its better than whats currently happening under Labor regime.... Im an immigrant and im voting One Nation to save Australia 🇦🇺

Per capita it would probably go up, and that’s more important.

Poorlene is utterly clueless

If Australia has to rely on immigration to help its economy, especially with the abundance of natural resources this country has, then it’s not Pauline who’s failed this country it’s the countless governments we’ve had, but sure let’s keep heading down that same path.

@virgotweet Pauline’s Economics experience goes as far as counting her money 🤣

GDP reducing is not an issue if the population decreases. Raising productivity is what matters, increasing output per capita. Get rid of half the bureaucrats and get them doing something productive👍

She's a racist cow and a complete idiot, and so is every single person who has voted for her or intends to vote for her!

@mackaysuzie Why does Sky keep giving this Hanson low life grub oxygen? Although @abcnews keeps giving that drunken Joyce oxygen.

Its funny. "People don't trust economists and what they have to say" But on the other hand "Trust that this plan will help Australian standard of living"

Who we trusting here, Gina?

She’ll happily plunge the economy into recession for ideological reasons. To anyone pledging their support to her, I say if you think you’ve got it tough now, it would be multiples worse if ONP had their way.

Well... Treasury economists stated that the NDIS in its mature state would cost $11 billion. It's about $50 billion now and growing. I don't trust economist either

Hanson is a blithering moron , especially when it comes to economic matters !!!! 😡
