Media outlets claim I’ve “walked back” my position, but I haven’t changed it at all.
They took comments out of context, pushed a lie and now pretend I shifted my stance to cover their own lie.
At the National Press Club I talked, very specifically, about businesses shouldn’t be forced to pay maternity leave if they can’t afford it, which is already the law.
Media and Labor spinners turned this into the lie that One Nation wants to abolish government‑paid maternity leave. I never said that, check the transcript.
Now media claims I “walked it back” to the same position I clearly stated from the start.
One Nation also backs income splitting, which would help families more than a bit of employer‑paid leave.
This is why people don’t trust the media or major parties. They twist One Nation’s words and spread lies.
In this case media just repeated what Labor fed them for a scare campaign and ended up with egg on their face.
Australians can see One Nation’s real positions in full context and they like what they see.
These attacks and trashy journalism only further undermine media credibility and prove their irrelevance.
The problem is VR didn't grow organically. It was a false market held up by billions of dollars by meta. I look at VR as the web when it started going commercial (yep I'm old) . Billions of dollars were thrown at the web, then we had the dot com bubble crash due to nobody taking up the web... Now look at the web.
