Pauline Hanson’s lawyers slam Robert Irwin’s defamation claims over Bluey cartoon parody

Lawyers for Pauline Hanson have slammed Robert Irwin’s “nonsensical” defamation claims against the controversial politician after she posted a cartoon to her social media depicting the young conservationist. The wildlife warrior appeared in cartoon-form in a video on Hanson’s Please Explain YouTube channel, titled The State of Queensland.

Hanson’s lawyers have now responded, saying the video was a “satirical assessment of the various failings of the Queensland State Government” and was not defamatory to the 20-year-old in any way. They said the video, which referenced a recent tourism campaign Irwin was involved in, was “a humorous critique of that advertisement published primarily for a political purpose”.
