It should be like in the AFL, where there are times when a player who challenges a suspension / fine can be given more.
So in this instance a mechanism should come into play and she gets more than her seven-day suspension.
I was a repeated offence - she knew what she was doing.

"Pauline Hanson wrote to Albanese asking him to lift a seven-day suspension from the Senate she received in the final sitting week of last year after she wore a burqa into the chamber. Hanson said the ban would prevent her from debating the new hate speech laws once parliament is recalled."
Good.

Sussan Ley is clearly so far out of her depth that she deserves to be sacked by her party, purely for her own good.
This is perhaps the most contemptible thing any political leader has ever said in this country.
The sooner she f*cks off to obscurity the better for Australia.
