Insightful and fascinating

This is a must for anyone interested in Australian politics. As someone who would never vote for Pauline Hanson, I nevertheless found it fascinating to see her career so articulately and clearly discussed and also appreciated the opportunity to better understand my fellow Australians who choose to vote for her.

Insightful view of Australia's race policy.

Marr deftly weaves together the many threads of contemporary Australian racism and its politics. The way he carefully traces Howard's development of racist dog-whistle politics and the effect of Hanson on his politics was illuminating.

Biased personalised Analysis

The author expressed a personalised opinion attacking the person from an arrogant liberal position. The kind of contempt shown actually encourages people to vote for her and people like Trump. Please let us have some rational analysis, or it that a thing of the past.
