Walker’s Latest Whinge
Charlotte Walker, the 21-year-old Labor candidate who slipped into parliament at the bottom of Labor's ticket, has taken to the tax-payer funded ABC airwaves to cry foul over online comments like “Go make me a sandwich.” The claims were linked to the revelation that the young Senator last week removed a video of her getting out of bed and having a big day on $230,000 plus a year.
The link between that the video being taken down and comments about the kitchen and sandwiches is clearly a smoke screen. The Daily Mail reported that the comments section were filled with words more along the lines of, ‘Is this what taxpayer dollars is spent on’. The public were questioning if the video displayed the level of maturity needed to be a federal senator.
But, abuse, you say? Please. Snide remarks about sandwiches are child’s play when compared to the flood of bile Senator Pauline Hanson faces daily. The left’s obsession with hating Pauline has seen her family placed under police protection, her movements under constant security, and the threats so vile they'd make “sandwich” look like a Valentine’s card.
Of course, the snowflakes on the left don’t blink at abuse hurled at Pauline Hanson, because she doesn’t toe their ideological line. They don’t care that she was the first Australian woman to found and lead her own political party, possibly the first woman in the world to do it, for that matter. No, that’s not worth celebrating, apparently, because someone said something cheeky to Labor’s accidental senator on social media.
Truth is, Pauline doesn’t lose sleep over it. She’s busy solving real problems, talking cost of living, lifting Aussies out of poverty, and getting on with the job. She’s up before dawn, puts on her big girl pants, and walks headfirst into the fire, because that’s what real leadership looks like.
Maybe Ms Walker should try watching her own Labor Party pass dodgy laws that were backdated just to throw you in jail for 11 weeks. That’s not politics, that’s persecution. Sending your opponents to jail on trumped up charges is real abuse. It happened to Pauline Hanson, jailed for having a different opinion to the mob Charlotte now cheers for.
Being Australia’s first political prisoner, that’s real abuse. Never to be compensated for wrongful imprisonment, that’s real abuse.
Ms Walker would do well to steer clear of picking fights with a woman who’s built a career on grit, guts, and getting back up when knocked down. Pauline’s raised a family, run businesses, balanced budgets and battled the political elite, while Charlotte’s still getting career advice from the likes of Sarah Hanson-Young and Natasha Stott Despoja.
If Charlotte Walker wants to pick a fight, she’d best bring more than a violin.
