EVERY Australian would be forced to apply for an identity card – unlocked by their fingerprint – under Pauline Hanson’s plan to crackdown on welfare fraud.

The One Nation leader is pressuring the Turnbull Government to accept her policy, which she says is needed to stop welfare overpayments and fraud.

Senator Hanson has told the Government the card would be voluntary but essential if recipients wanted to keep receiving their dole, family tax benefit or child care payments.
Oh yeah, cos the Australia Card that Hawke tried to introduce went down so well with the public and media.

Oh wait, it's just more bashing of the poor and underclass, party on Pauline.

Cory will do nothing because all he is is piss and wind. There is no way anyone will vote for him in large enough numbers without having the Liberals supporting him, and there's no way he'll be tolerated even in One Nation.

Now if Cory was in the ministry then maybe he might have some relevance, but since he's a back bencher with poo poo views, he won't get any support at all.

Considering the previous Baillieu/Napthine Government spent its 4 years doing gently caress all and their idea of removing a crossing was a poo poo one down in Louise Asher's electorate. They didn't even remove any from the Frankston line, which was their pledge when they got into government.

There you go. There's the death knell for the libs. Agree all you like with the offshore death camps, nobody likes Trump and nobody with a future wants to look cozy with him. They might dump Turnbull but they won't dump strong borders, and have now successfully wedged themselves.

In other news, the libs also doubled the debt since taking power somehow.
