Speech September 16th 1997- Hurstville Branch of the Pauline Hanson One Nation Party

Good Morning Ladies & Gentlemen

Objective
This is going to be a speech on:-

Firstly - Why we are with Pauline Hanson and why no other Political Party in Australia (with exception of Graham Campbell's Australia First) can come any where near to encapsulating what it is, I beleive, that we all believe in.
Secondly - From that I will develop what it is we should strive to do, not only organisationally, but also intellectually- to win the hearts and minds of the people.
Thirdly - what each & every one of you can do here in Hurstville to help Phillip and his team make this branch a thriving success, and so at least strike a blow here in the Southern Suburbs for Pauline and Freedom.
