Pauline Hanson says ‘bullies out there’ are covered up ‘because they’re women’

One Nation leader Pauline Hanson says there are women out there “who are bullies” but we “cover it up” because they’re women, following reports of the mistreatment of the late Senator Kimberley Kitching by Labor colleagues.

Ms Kitching was at times “terribly frustrated … she was locked out of meetings, they wouldn’t include her in anything,” according to Ms Hanson.

“She never used the words mean girls, she said she was bullied by them,” she told Sky News host Chris Smith.

“I couldn’t understand why they couldn’t get on with her … Australia and Victoria have lost a very good senator.”

I won't be voting labour if Penny Wong is in the party. I long suspected she had a rod up her backside but this just goes to show what a bad egg she is for the party. She's worse than Tusli Gabbard (at least the latter has some compassion).

And what is the deal with KK (Kristina Keneally)?
Constantly failing and getting promoted each time.

Pauline Hanson takes a swipe at Penny Wong and Kristina Keneally over Kimberley Kitching bullying claims

Yeah I'm sure Penny Wong really cares about aboriginal people. My best guess is that she doesn't want to show her face at the funeral lest she gets a few nasty stares herself from Kimberley Kitching's family. Is Keneally attending?

Labor fails to spin Kimberley Kitching ‘bullying’ allegations while some in the media ignore the issue

The late Labor Senator Kimberley Kitching was allegedly bullied and ostracised by her own party but some in the media have tried to downplay the issue, writes Jack Houghton.

Former Labor MP Emma Husar has added to the Kimberley Kitching bullying allegations with fresh claims against the party, according to Sky News host Chris Kenny.

The three Labor Senators at the centre of the Kimberley Kitching bullying allegations have released a statement over the “untrue” claims.

The late Senator – who passed away last week from a suspected heart attack – was allegedly bullied by three colleagues, Penny Wong, Kristina Keneally and Katy Gallagher.

“The claims of bullying are a serious issue, and Labor needs to address them, especially given Labor has spent the past year trying to smear the Coalition and Scott Morrison with claims about a misogynistic culture in parliament house,” Mr Kenny said.

“The Labor Leader Anthony Albanese has been exposed as weak on this issue; instead of expressing concern or initiating an investigation he played up use of the term ‘mean girls’ and used it to somehow portray the three senators accused of bullying as the victims.”

He said Ms Husar told The Daily Telegraph when she spoke out against her former party that Albanese was “gaslighting” by turning the phrase ‘mean girls’ around before going on to claim Labor is “far more toxic and far more manipulative” than the Liberal Party.

“Obviously these are issues the Labor leader needs to confront, at least in the public debate, if not with some sort of inquiry into his own party’s culture.”

Interesting to read ousted labor MP Emma Husar has come out attacking Labor for its handling of Kitching's work stress.

Wong/KK/Gallagher putting out a joint statement - reads "We having nothing to say"...I mean why bother claiming it's a joint statement

As if Kitching's family are going to buy it.
