NAMA pengasas parti One Nation di Australia Pauline Hanson kembali hangat setelah membuat ucapan berbaur anti-Islam.
Memetik laporan BBC, dalam ucapan pertamanya di Dewan Senat, Hanson mendakwa Australia 'dibanjiri umat Islam'.
"Islam tidak boleh mempunyai kehadiran yang ketara di Australia jika kita hidup di dalam masyarakat yang terbuka dan sekular.
"Kami telah melihat kemusnahan yang berlaku di seluruh dunia,” katanya.
Beliau juga mencadangkan larangan terhadap pemakaian burqa dan pembinaan masjid-masjid baharu.
Ternyata kenyataan beliau mengundang pelbagai kritikan sehingga beberapa senator yang lain bertindak untuk keluar dari dewan.
Di media sosial pula, hashtag #SwampedByMuslims trending di garis masa media sosial di Australia.
Mereka yang warga Australia beragama Islam terus menyuarakan pandangan mereka tentang kepelbagaian yang wujud di Australia.

I'm Asian, Muslim, a migrant, wear a burqini, & worked my whole adult life. Pauline Hanson's worst nightmare. #SwampedByMuslims

At 2% of the population, we're hardly being #SwampedByMuslims #auspol
