Summary
Senator Malcolm Roberts is under fire for posting anti-Semitic conspiracy theories online, linking globalist agendas to the UN and World Economic Forum — prompting calls for his resignation from colleagues and critics. While Barnaby Joyce distances himself from Roberts’ views, refusing to directly condemn him, he defends Pauline Hanson’s controversial meeting with Tommy Robinson. The fallout highlights One Nation’s struggle to broaden its appeal amid ties to divisive figures. Independent MP Allegra Spender labeled Roberts’ post a “notorious anti-Semitic slur” and questioned whether Hanson or Joyce will hold him accountable. As Hanson prepares to speak at a London conservative event while holidaying with a major donor, the party faces mounting pressure to address the fallout and redefine its direction amid growing concerns over harmful ideologies.
