Pauline Hanson sells book on reasons to support Indigenous voice to parliament

One Nation leader Pauline Hanson has penned an unexpected book called Reasons to Vote for Albanese’s Voice. But there is a big catch.

Pauline Hanson has penned a surprising book selling on Amazon: Reasons to Vote for Albanese’s Voice.

The $15 paperback published by Pauline Hanson’s One Nation party on July 8 promises to outline “all the reasons to vote yes” in the referendum for an Indigenous voice to parliament.

The 100-page book’s title is unexpected given Hanson has made clear she is against the Voice. However, there’s a catch. Every page is blank.

On Monday morning, the book, with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s face on the cover, was sitting at No.25 on Amazon’s “Elections & Political Process” bestsellers list, but The Australian’s Media Diary reported it had previously been sitting much higher.

Prominent Yes campaigner Thomas Mayo and journalist Kerry O’Brien’s The Voice to Parliament Handbook is in the No.2 spot on the same list, which is determined based on sales.

That book is priced at $12 and is 112 pages.

Pauline Hanson is selling this book on Amazon for $15.

Every page of the book is blank.

“Because we believe offering Australians an opportunity to explore the details they have been given about a Yes vote, is a sure fire way to get them to vote No!” Hanson’s blurb reads.

“Anthony Albanese’s proposed race-based Voice to Parliament is not only divisive but also poses significant risks. Unless Australians vote against it, the consequences will be permanent. “Australia’s Constitution, the governing rule book of our nation, currently upholds the principle of equality without distinction based on race. Help us keep it that way. Make your voice heard. Vote No.”

The book has four five-star reviews.

“Pauline has really hit the nail on the head with this one! It is chock full of fantastic reasons to vote yes in the upcoming divisive and racist referendum,” wrote one person.

“The book (although empty of words) concisely outlines all the reasons to Vote Yes to racial based division in Australia,” said another.

The Albanese government is yet to confirm the exact date of the referendum (sometime between October and December), but any referendum must be held on a Saturday.

Australians will be asked to vote on the question: “A proposed law: to alter the constitution to recognise the first peoples of Australia by establishing an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voice, do you approve of this proposed alteration?”

Just 41 per cent of voters plan to vote yes and for the first time women are now more likely than men to vote no, according to the latest Newspoll.

A Newspoll commissioned by The Australian and conducted by YouGov showed 38 per cent of female voters intend to vote in favour – a 10-point fall in support in the past three weeks.

Overall, 41 per cent of Australian voters say they will vote yes, 48 per cent are opposed and 11 per cent don’t know.

Three weeks earlier, the Newspoll showed 43 per cent supported the Voice and six weeks ago, 46 per cent were in support.
