HERE TOO IS DAVID ETTERIDGE. THE MAN WHOSE SUSPICIOUS MIND DREAMED UP THE PARTY'S UNIQUE STRUCTURE. ONE THAT EMPOWERS HIM - AT THE STROKE OF A PEN - TO DISCARD ANY OR ALL OF THESE MEMBERS. HE LIKENS THE STRUCTURE TO A LIZARD. |
07.30 DAVID ETTERIDGE ONE NATION NATIONAL DIRECTOR | We've created a political party structure that has the ability to drop its tail as a skink does so that of one part of the organisation was to be contaminated or destroyed in some way and there are a lot of people seeking to do that then we could discard it and the party itself would remain intact..... |

Nat sot Oldfield One of the good things about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember the lies you've told. And also the truth is immediate - lies have to be thought up. |
DAVID OLDFIELD | You described yourself as a national socialist. A. Oh well ......no, I would say that I was a nationalist. Now a national socialist has a particularly unfortunate connotation to it. |
12.38 TONY ABBOTT LIBERAL MP | I think by any definition, National Socialist equals Nazi. David Oldfield is a.. er.. quite unusual by Australian political standards. |

Q. How extreme were these people? Well I'll put it this way. My flags not white and my emblem is not a burning cross but their's is, as far as I'm concerned.
Those half a million people that voted need to know what they're voting for - next time round they need to know that the people they voted for aren't what they seem. |
15.02 PAULINE HANSON | I'm fed up with hearing it. I really am. I'm sick of people making these statements and nothing to back it up. So ..You know..If they feel that way and they're not happy in the direction and what we stand for then please leave us. Q. But.. .......go and join some other party! |

RACE IS ONE OF THE KEYS TO THE HANSON MYSTERY. IS SHE A SECRET RACIST - TOO CAREFUL TO REVEAL THE TRUTH - BUT CRAFTING CODED STATEMENTS THAT OTHER RACISTS UNDERSTAND? OR IS SHE AS GOOD AS HER WORD? |
Question from the floor
16.05
| I'm sick of Asian people, sick of black people and sick of the whole..Um..Majority of this race..Of this...
nat sot Hanson To tell you truthfully I don't like your attitude in saying that your sick of Asians and sick of black people and if you think you're here because I feel that way then you're very wrong... |
06.17 JOHN PASQUERELLI ADVISER MARCH - DECEMBER 1996 | All the time I was with her, during that - what I call the year of her creation - 1996, I never heard Pauline say anything detrimental about anybody on a racist basis. She never called anybody a black bastard or... Spoke about er.. Slope-heads or anything of that.. Derogatory nature. |

It's okay.
THE DEVIL, AS THEY SAY, IS IN THE DETAIL...
Between 1984 and 1995, of all the migrants coming into Australia, 40% were from the Asian area.

If their situation has changed we must re-locate them back into their own country.
WHAT GETS LOST IN THE DRAMA IS THE WAY ONE NATION MISREPRESENTS CRITICAL FACTS.

|
19.03 | nat sot of Oldfield and Spencer Matthew Beckman a solicitor & co-ordinator with the Victorian Refugee & Immigration Legal Centre...
Oh, he'll want to just talk about refugees....
MARGINAL POLITICAL FIGURES LIKE ROBYN SPENCER - FROM ORGANISATIONS ONCE CONSIDERED EXTREME HAVE FLOWN INTO ORBIT AROUND HANSON. SPENCER'S IDEA OF ZERO NET IMMIGRATION ..AS A WAY OF STRICTLY REDUCING THE NUMBERS OF ASIANS COMING HERE - IS NOW ONE NATION POLICY. |
19.20 | nat sot O: I would tend to talk about the Australian people being made aware. S: (nods) made aware.. Oldfield: You can just uproot whatever it is that you're doing and bring it over here. You can bring down your 75 year old grandfather who will probably then further corrupt the process of any form of integration... |
19.45
ANGRY LOOKING WALKING THROUGH SHOT. | BUT THE ONE NATION POLICY IS BASED ON OUTDATED PROJECTIONS BY THE DEMOGRAPHER CHARLES PRICE - THAT AUSTRALIA COULD BECOME 27 PERCENT ASIAN WITHIN 25 YEARS.... PRICE HIMSELF HAS SINCE REVISED HIS ESTIMATES DRAMATICALLY DOWNARDS BUT ONE NATION STILL USES THE OLD FIGURES REGULARLY. |
20.04 PAULINE HANSON | A lot of people don't want to forget where they've come from and they continue that over here in Australia. |
20.18 | IT'S CLEAR THAT RACE IS THE DETERMINING FACTOR IN THE POLICY. |
20.23
| BUT SINCE HANSON AND SPENCER CAN'T JUST SAY "NO MORE ASIANS"....THEIR ANSWER IS TO CLOSE THE DOOR WITH ZERO NET IMMIGRATION.......
|

BUT EVEN AS THE IMMIGRATION POLICY WAS BEING RELEASED..MORE CRACKS WERE APPEARING IN THE ONE NATION FAMILY.. PAULINE HANSON'S ELECTORAL SECRETARY AND FRIEND BARBARA HAZELTON WENT PUBLIC WITH CLAIMS THAT THE PARTY HAD BEEN TAKEN OVER BY DAVID OLDFIELD... |
DAVID OLDFIELD | She has been white anting the organisation from within because of her own agenda and she's trying to put herself back in a position of influencing Pauline. She's shot her bolt with Pauline. |
21.23 | THE HAZLETON RESIGNATION WAS NOT ISOLATED. PARTY DISSIDENTS WERE STARTING TO EMERGE ALL OVER THE COUNTRY.... BUT DAVID OLDFIELD WASN'T ABOUT TO FOLLOW THE PATH OF WEAKER POLITICIANS.... |
DAVID OLDFIELD | They don't kick heads..you do need to kick heads in politics. |
21.39 TERRY SHARPLES | If you speak out against David Oldfield it's on record. You're gone the next day.
TERRY SHARPLES WAS THE ONE NATION CANDIDATE FOR THE QUEENSLAND STATE SEAT OF BURLEIGH..... HE MADE THE MISTAKE OF GOING AGAINST THE PARTY |
21.56 ELECTION NIGHT COVERAGE.
22.05 TERRY SHARPLES | SHARPLES HAS NOW TAKEN THE QUEENSLAND ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO COURT CLAIMING THAT ONE NATION COMMITTED AN ELECTORAL FRAUD WHEN IT REGISTERED ITSELF IN THE STATE..
I wasn't disendorsed I was knee capped in the sense that they simply withdrew all party help.
THE CASE HAS FROZEN NEARLY HALF A MILLION DOLLARS IN ELECTION FUNDS THAT WOULD HAVE GONE TO THE PARTY.
|
22.18 TERRY SHARPLES | The people of Australia don't want a dictatorship & they won't vote one in but we've got to get the message out. |
22.30 DAVID ETTERIDGE
| SINCE TERRY SHARPLES DIDN'T HAVE THE FUNDS TO GO TO COURT HIMSELF...THE LIBERAL MP TONY ABBOT ORGANISED A LAWYER...
It's not the people who are running the case. Somebody else is putting the money behind them to try to destabilise One Nation.
|
22.39 TONY ABBOT | So there was never any question of any Party funds or other funds ... abs... absolutely not ... ... from any other source ... .. absolutely not ... ... being offered to Terry Sharples? Absolutely not. |

23.45 ETTERIDGE SPEECH

24.56 LEN SPENCER | You're talking to people who have maliciously and deliberately er.. said that they will go to any lengths, as I said, to destroy Pauline.. One Nation.. and myself.. in South Australia. |
25.12 dinner | LEN SPENCER IS THE PARTY'S LEAD SENATE CANDIDATE...AND LIKE DAVID OLDFIELD HAS A VERY GOOD CHANCE OF WINNING. SO HE'S ANXIOUS TO SUPPRESS THE MOST DAMAGING OF THE ALLEGATIONS AGAINST HIM - THAT HE CARRIED A CONCEALED HAND-GUN WHILE ON PARTY BUSINESS. TWO OF THE PARTY DISSIDENTS HAVE SWORN STATEMENTS TO THAT EFFECT |
25.35 ALAN CONN at pawn shop
| He pointed it right at me (chuckles)
ALAN CONN IS ONE OF THEM....
I was in the office as a volunteer.. Um.. Answering the 'phones and um.. Len spencer came out of the office. He had his coat over his arm and he had a revolver in a holster in his left hand. He put the coat down on the chair.. And he took the gun and threw it down on the table.. And as the gun landed, the barrel point pointed straight at me. |
26.05 LEN SPENCER | Well.. look.. I don't even know what date or time, but I'll just say once again, that er.. I do not own a firearm. That's it. |
26.13 PAULINE HANSON | I have mentioned it to Len.. and I have spoken to it.. and I have no concerns about it.. of what he has told me. And he also has got a licence for that. For that gun. |
26.25 LEN SPENCER | Well she is under a misapprehension and perhaps from what other people have told her.
|
26.31 DAVID ETTERIDGE | There are reasons er ..he has told me why he is permitted to carry a firearm but he only carries it at certain times it's not permanently on his body. |
26.40 LEN SPENCER | I do not carry a firearm.. I do not own a firearm.
Do you recall telling David Oldfield that you actually drew your weapon on the One Nation premises to defend yourself from an intruder?
Well.. no.. I haven't done that. And I deny it.
You deny saying that to David Oldfield?
I deny it. Mm.
You deny having done it.. or deny having said that to David Oldfield?
I deny having said it, and I deny doing it.
So David Oldfield's a liar is he?
I'm not saying that at all. You'll have to discuss that with David Oldfield. |
NIGHT TIME FUNDRAISER AND LEN. | nat sot Spencer speech v. brief
I'd like to welcome our very speacial guests, Pauline Hanson... the leader & Presiden of our party...
THE DISSIDENTS ALLEGE THAT LEN SPENCER HAS MISUSED HIS POWER IN OTHER WAYS.

27.33 | THREE ONE NATION CANDIDATES WERE SO CONCERNED THAT THEY DROVE TO CANBERRA ON THE 12TH OF MAY TO PUT THEIR CASE ABOUT LEN SPENCER'S BEHAVIOUR DIRECTLY TO PAULINE HANSON |
27.46 IRIS KLINGHAMMER | What sort of party did you think you were joining when the joined one nation originally?
A party that was for the people. |
DAVID OLDFIELD | We're not a family of four or five people where you can run to mummy..When you don't get the answer you want from daddy. |
27.58 PAULINE HANSON | After that meeting, I learnt a lot of other things that they didn't tell me. Now I have a big job to do.... |
28.07 | SO INSTEAD OF GOING TO SOUTH AUSTRALIA HERSELF, AS SHE HAD PROMISED, TO SORT OUT THE PROBLEMS - PAULINE HANSON DISPATCHED DAVID ETTERIDGE.
|
28.16 IRIS KLINGHAMMER | And the way he spoke to us, like calling us traitors or compulsive liars, it made everybody else feel like.. they had the right to say the same thing. So all the other candidates - one actually - a couple of exceptions, were standing up and pointing their finger at us and going you're a traitor, it's treason and compulsive liars. And oh, it was just on for young and old.
|
DAVID ETTERIDGE | I don't know that I used such harsh language.
|
IRIS KLINGHAMMER | It was incredible. |
LEN SPENCER | It was very hostile. They wanted answers. They wanted answers as to why these people were trying to destroy everything that all these fine people had er.. had built.
|
IRIS KLINGHAMMER | And this was a punishment meted out on... you for going to see Pauline Hanson.... A. Iris interjects: No, that was our counselling.... Q. .. with your complaints? A. Iris: ... that was our counselling. I mean, we've - all been told that anybody who's being removed has been counselled, and that was our counselling. [CHUCKLES] |
29.03 LEN SPENCER | We've had these barbarians trying to destroy everything that we've created. And I'll fight tooth and nail to stop that. Whether they're from within.. or without.
|
29.13 ALAN CONN
| Pauline, listen to us... take control again, take hold.. and if you have to, kick them out. Because there will be plenty more honest people that will step into their place and guide you and help you to become a great party. |

And I'm going to continue on and I'm going to speak to as many people as I possibly can. How would they feel, if I was ever in a position and I turned around to say to them. I'm gonna take away your right to protest.
