  "account": "Pauline Hanson faced widespread condemnation over her derogatory comments about Australia's Indigenous people, described as \"the most primitive race on earth\" and claiming that they had achieved nothing in the country's 60,000-year history. The comments, made on a conservative podcast, reignited a controversy that recently surfaced where Hanson criticized Anthony Albanese's late mother for living too long in public housing. Hanson's remarks about Indigenous people were deemed \"totally outrageous, completely racist, and divisive\" by Minister for Indigenous Australians, Malarndirri McCarthy. The Senate previously censured Hanson for wearing a burqa in parliament and questioning whether there were good Muslims.",
  "summary": "Pauline Hanson’s derogatory remarks about Indigenous people on a podcast last year have been slammed by members of the government, the Liberals and the Nationals.",
