Pauline Hanson dismisses climate change as a hoax in a National Press Club speech

During a formal address at the National Press Club, Pauline Hanson, leader of the One Nation party, declared that global warming and climate change are a hoax. The statement was part of her broader political agenda, which often includes skepticism of scientific consensus on climate issues. The speech sparked controversy among environmental groups and the public, with many calling for a response from political leaders. Hanson’s remarks align with her party’s long‑standing stance that climate policies are over‑ambitious and harmful to Australian businesses.

Her comments influence public debate on climate policy and reflect the ongoing political divide over environmental science.
