澳大利亚One Nation党近期接纳了极右翼网红安德烈·马梅特(Andre Mamet)为党员。[1]现年19岁的马梅特在网络上以"Ausmaxx"为名活动,[1]最近在英国举办的保守政治行动会议(CPAC)上采访了One Nation党领导人保琳·汉森。[1]在采访中,马梅特向汉森询问她如何打击左翼活动人士,汉森表示右翼应该"挺直腰杆",即使被指控为"种族主义者"也要继续斗争。[1]
马梅特的背景因其与极端分子的联系而引发关注。[1]他曾被拍到与已被禁的新纳粹组织国家社会主义网络(NSN)的成员混在一起,[1]并赞助自Rite Books书店,该书店销售包括纳粹宣传家约瑟夫·戈培尔演讲集在内的法西斯书籍。[1]马梅特在4月获得CPAC澳大利亚分部资助参加德克萨斯州主会议。[1]
汉森曾在6月的播客中表示,她被迫关闭了四个One Nation地方分部,原因是党内"被这些极端分子渗透"。[1]马梅特的入党再次引发了对One Nation党审查成员背景能力的质疑。
One Nation has admitted far-right influencer Andre Mamet as a party member, prompting fresh scrutiny of the party's vetting procedures [1]. The 19-year-old online personality, known by the handle "Ausmaxx," recently interviewed party leader Pauline Hanson at the UK Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), where he questioned her on combating left-wing activists [1]. During that exchange, Hanson stated that the right wing should "grow a backbone" and persist in their fight despite being branded "racist" [1].
Mamet's background has raised significant concerns about his suitability for party membership [1]. He has been photographed associating with neo-Nazis from the now-banned National Socialist Network (NSN) and maintains links to individuals who have attended Nazi training camps [1]. Additionally, Mamet sponsors Rite Books, a bookstore that stocks fascist literature including collections of speeches by Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels [1]. In April, Mamet received funding from CPAC Australia's branch to attend the organization's main conference in Texas [1].
The admission has reignited questions about infiltration within One Nation. Hanson acknowledged in a June podcast that she was compelled to shut down four One Nation local branches because the party had been "infiltrated by these extreme elements" [1].
