Pauline is appealing against her racial discrimination finding in the High Court.

The High Court will hear Pauline Hanson’s appeal of a 2024 court ruling that found she racially vilified Greens senator Mehreen Faruqi in 2022.

Senator Hanson told Senator Faruqi to “piss off back to Pakistan” after Senator Faruqi wrote on social media that she could not mourn the Queen, calling her the “leader of a racist empire”.

Senator Hanson welcomed the court’s decision to hear the case, saying it was about “freedom of speech”, while Senator Faruqi issued a statement saying “bring it on”.
