Senator Pauline Hanson has renewed her call to scrap mandatory Welcome to Country and Acknowledgement rituals, labelling them divisive, performative, and a tool of political indoctrination. Backed by a recent poll showing 56% of Australians agree the ceremonies are divisive, Hanson criticised their use in schools, flights, sporting events, and even Anzac Day. She shared personal stories of turning her back during parliamentary ceremonies and encouraging her grandson to refuse participation at school. Hanson also blasted Liberal leader Susan Lee for including a Welcome to Country in her Press Club speech, calling it a weak gesture that betrays conservative values. Her message: Australians must stand up, reject forced cultural rituals, and reclaim national unity.
