Concluding comments

The media are so predictable. As Sir Joh once said they are like a bunch of chooks.

One Nation dissidents Sharples and Collingwood fed them most of the day and some of their comments were noted as fact.

Right: David Dalgleish and Bill Feldman with a few proxies of their own...

In reality the AGM was a very well run affair. The meeting was convened and run without any heated arguments taking place. The delegates inside all had their opportunity to talk, vote and listen. The democratic process was the winner inside while the murder by media continued in the press the next day in biased reports -

While the media reported "Pauline Hanson yesterday put down a revolt from within her own party by winning endorsement as One Nation president." (The Daily Telegraph)... the truth was so far from the line being peddled by them that their comments are becoming less and less relevant as Australia moves into the 21st Century.
