Pauline Hanson Has Done Something Totally UN-AUSTRALIAN!

The leader of the One Nation party has been making headlines for all the wrong reasons lately, but this might be a step too far. In a bid to woo Barnaby Joyce to One Nation, she cooked up a steak in a way that could only be described as a culinary crime!

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is the Fitting In with Her with Kate Richie podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
We don't like to talk about Pauline Hanson too much
on the show, but she's rocked up to Parliament in
a burger day.

Speaker 3 (00:09):
She did this eight years ago. Are you trying to
see this? I'm trying to prove a point.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Everyone was shocked, and you know what, Pauline, move on
and we are going to move on because we're going
to move on to Pauline trying to.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
Get Barnaby Joyce over to the one Nation Park? Where
is it at?

Speaker 2 (00:26):
So what she's basically said, and you know what, not
bad by Pauline. I promise you, Barnaby, I will cook
you a home cooked meal. And who does not love
a home cooked meal?

Speaker 3 (00:41):
Do you have to have it?

Speaker 4 (00:42):
Is it cooking a home cooked meal that she'll put
in a Pyrex dish and leave it on your doorstep?

Speaker 3 (00:48):
Would you have to go to her house and have
you No?

Speaker 2 (00:51):
No, I think it's face to face cab with a
glass of wine. Yeah, that's immediately what I thought.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
It's a roast. It would have to be a roast.

Speaker 5 (01:00):
Wouldn't it be a sponge for dessert?

Speaker 4 (01:02):
I'm thinking like a pasta or polonnaise.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
I'm thinking mum's meat and for three veg that's what
you think of a home cooked meal. So that's what
she's done. She's done meat and three vegs. The only
thing is wasn't home cooked? You know what, I'll let
the news story tell me.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Pauline Hanson has stepped up her efforts to woo former
Nationals leader Barnaby Joyce, hosting him for dinner at her
office in Federal Parliament. Political reporter Adam Langenberg joins us. Now, Adam,
what was on the menu? Gamma?

Speaker 6 (01:37):
Parliament House has pretty rudimentary dining facilities, but Senator Pauline
Hansen gave it her best go. She cooked steaks on
a sandwich press, which is innovative, if perhaps not appetizing,
and also served a potato salad, a pasta salad and
a mulberry pie.

Speaker 3 (01:57):
Can we just hear that again?

Speaker 6 (01:59):
She cooked on a sandwich press.

Speaker 3 (02:02):
Yeah, sandwich toasting you can't. It's not getting hot enough.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
It's no, well it's not. And the price of meat
don't ruin it. If you have, if you have the
opportunity to have a steak.

Speaker 5 (02:14):
Poppet in a pack ten do you cook steak in
a sandwich toasting.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
That sense, it'd be good.

Speaker 5 (02:20):
I don't have an issue with it, to be honest,
it's just a hot plate. It's just a form of grill.

Speaker 4 (02:25):
I'd love you to host lunch at your place in
the future. You'll do steaks on the sandwich press.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
Wouldn't going, I'll sure it wouldn't be going. For sure,
we wouldn't be invited. We'll do steaks, I'm not afraid.

Speaker 5 (02:36):
I'll bring it in here and old bloody do so well.

Speaker 4 (02:38):
If you're renting a room, for example, and you don't
have cooking facilities, that is the only time you're allowed
to use a sandwich press for meat.

Speaker 5 (02:46):
Ollie cook steak this morning and had it for breakfast
at five am with eggs.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
Thanks for training.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (02:53):
It's unlike the carnival dat or whatever.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
Look, he's got his steak there.

Speaker 5 (02:55):
But Tommy, do we have any meat here in the fridge,
because I know we've got a sandwich toaster. If you
could go and do a porterhouse in.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
The sand try some meat in the fridge. Actually, I
actually asked Pauline what kind of steak it was. This
is a big one. It was for the boys.

Speaker 6 (03:12):
It's coming up now.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
And was it for the boys or for the girls? Pauline,
That's what I'm wanting.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
To Okay, just quickly before we do go. Sydney Morning
Herald very well done, got straight onto it straight away.
They tried it in their office and the bloke said,
it does it doesn't get hot enough.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
It's basically stewing more than sizzly.

Speaker 5 (03:36):
Right, so it just looks kind of half cooked in.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
Its own fat.

Speaker 5 (03:40):
Oh yeah, Pauline, rethink your sandwich toaster.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
Barnaby is not going to one.
