A spokesperson for Hanson, the federal One Nation leader, confirmed the party has a new NSW executive and Latham is not a member of that executive.
Mark Latham has labelled his axing as NSW One Nation leader as a “bizarre” takeover by Pauline Hanson, saying the federal party leader acted without following due process.
A spokesman for Hanson said the party’s national executive decided last week to establish a new NSW state executive without Latham, and declared his leadership position vacant. Latham posted on Facebook that Hanson had used the national executive powers of One Nation to takeover the NSW branch, and had acted without following due process or consultation. He said that people from Queensland and Tasmania had been installed on the NSW executive, “who did not lift a finger to help” during the March election campaign.
“Yet our 6% result was still 2% ahead of the NSW Senate result last year in a campaign Hanson herself headed,” he said.“In Queensland, Hanson’s Senate vote fell by 3%, and she only just scrapped in for re-election. If she is worried about under-performance, her best solution is to buy a mirror.”
