…and she’s running for Parliament.
No, it’s not Pauline Hanson, although the media have dubbed her as the “next Pauline Hanson”.
Who? This dopey cow.
Small wonder Kate McCullock has joined the One Nation Party and will be their candidate for the seat of Macarthur in the next Federal Election, according to a press release from the Ku Klux Klan One Nation Party today.
Mad Kate is standing for the seat because:
…she felt strongly about freedom of speech.
“So many people felt so strongly about the issue in Camden but they were too terrified to speak out, and that’s sad,” she said.
She hoped standing as a candidate and “saying the truth and what I think” would give Australians the courage to speak up.
Or allow bigots and racists to spew their bile. Making it acceptable to be racist and ignorant and xenophobic and all that jazz.
Of course, racism and bigotry is never acceptable. Except Kate’s not racist, is she? Oh no. It’s the media’s fault for portraying her like that:
But Mrs McCulloch said she was prepared for an onslaught from the media.
“I have a feeling how the media are going to portray me as xenophobic and racist,” she said.
“They will sensationalise. You have to cop it sweet.

Mad Kate’s good values also means being nice about other cultures:
We don’t want [Muslims] not only here, we don’t want them in Australia. They’re an oppressive society, they’re a dictatorship… The ones that come here oppress our society, they take our welfare and they don’t want to accept our way of life.
Oh, sorry. Hang on, I’m sure I can find something she’s said that demonstrates Mad Kate’s good values…
Go and do something while I search. Go on, then. It will take me a while.
Sorry, Kim Beazley, I’ve had enough. You’ve been opposition leader for the better part of a decade and I thought you’d have got your act together by now. Fair enough, you still feel bitter about having the win snatched from your waiting paws in 2001 but isn’t it time to move on? You’ve been leader this time around for over 18 months and we still don’t know what you stand for. John Howard’s advice on the weekend to state Liberal opposition leaders was this: “You’ve got to develop, over a longer period of time, an alternative policy, an alternative story as to how you want the state governed.” Good advice, Kim.
On September 11 the slippery argument of whether Australia is safer or not after five years of “war on terror” was always going to pop up. John Howard says yes, we are safer and has
