Speaking to 6PR Perth Live, Senator Hanson says people could be jailed for simply calling Australia the best country in the world.

“If I say ‘My politics are I don’t want people coming from certain countries because they won’t assimilate’ … I could be then prosecuted under this because I’m targeting certain groups of people,” she said.

She also says she’s worried an extension to the laws would leave people to feel like they can have no opinions.

“We have enough laws in place; they’re not utilising laws that we have,” she added.

She also defended the decision to use a private jet owned by Gina Rinehart in order to visit parts of Queensland impacted by floods.

“She actually gave us the offer, no cost to the taxpayer, alright, so we went up there … we haven’t even heard from the Prime Minister,” she said.
