澳大利亚One Nation党领导人保琳·汉森对其一年前播客中的争议性言论表示"遗憾"1。汉森曾将澳洲原住民称为"地球上最原始种族",并质疑其60,000年历史的成就,声称"他们从未发明车轮,没有任何成就"1。面对公众批评,汉森表示:"如果我因使用那个词汇冒犯了他人,我会为此道歉。但我不会回避需要讨论的问题。"1
原住民事务部长马拉恩迪里·麦卡锡称汉森的言论"令人愤怒、完全种族主义和分裂性"1。汉森进一步说明:"我为说出那番话感到遗憾,因为我不想让人们不快。"1同时,汉森继续呼吁对原住民资金进行审计,并批评学校教授阿博里金语言不会给学生带来工作前景1。
就汉森对总理阿尔巴内塞母亲的评论,汉森向阿尔巴内塞提出有保留的道歉,声称她的评论并非贬低其母亲1。阿尔巴内塞为自己的成长经历感到自豪,并为其母亲辩护称她"远超保琳·汉森的水平"1。
One Nation leader Pauline Hanson expressed regret over remarks she made in a podcast a year ago describing Aboriginal Australians as "the most primitive race on earth," offering what she characterized as a partial apology while maintaining her position on issues she believes warrant discussion.1 Hanson stated, "If I've offended people by using that (word), yes, I will apologise for that. But I will not back away from what needs to be discussed," and added, "I regret saying that because I don't want to upset people."1
In her original podcast comments, Hanson had questioned the achievements of Indigenous Australians over their 60,000-year history, claiming "they never invented the wheel, they have no achievements."1 Her remarks prompted a sharp rebuke from Indigenous Australians Minister Malarndirri McCarthy, who characterized Hanson's comments as "outrageous, completely racist and divisive."1 Hanson also called for an audit of Indigenous funding and criticized the teaching of Aboriginal languages in schools, arguing it would not provide students with job prospects.1
Additionally, Hanson made a qualified apology to Prime Minister Anthony Albanese regarding comments about his mother, asserting her remarks were not intended to demean her.1 Albanese responded by expressing pride in his upbringing and defending his mother, stating she was "well above Pauline Hanson's level."1
