Description This is a critical look at Pauline Hanson, the woman and politician.
She is the author of The Stalking of Julia Gillard..
She has no affiliation with, or loyalty to, any major news organization.
About the Author Kerry-Anne Walsh is a former Canberra Correspondent forthe Bulletin and the Sun-Herald, and is these days a regular on ABC-TV\'s Insiders and on Sky News.
Be prepared for a wild ride.
With biting observations and and a deep probing of evidence, Hoodwinked looks at Pauline Hanson from her time as an accidental local councilor to her emergence as a surprising national figure in 1996 and her resurrection in 2016, her careful profile-building through the media during the intervening years, the friends she\'s used and discarded, the men who control her, the money trail of her party and her personal finances.
Woven into this compelling narrative is the rise and rise of the disaffected voters who now control political destinies and the future of our two-party system and the collapse of the "conviction politician" and trust in the system that has given rise to chancers such as Hanson.
Does she really stand for the battler, or has it only ever been about her personal pursuit for power and infamy? Has she duped her loyal supporters, who have kept her in the public eye and propelled her back into parliament because she "speaks for them?" Kerry-Anne Walsh\'s conclusion is, yes.
