News24 host James Macpherson condemns One Nation Leader Pauline Hanson’s comments about Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s late mother, arguing political opponents’ families should be off limits. “Everybody knows the rule. You don't go disrespecting your mum. And you don't go disrespecting anyone else's mum,” Mr Macpherson said. “Not your neighbour's mum, not your friend's mum, and not even your political opponent's mum. Doubly so if your political opponent's mum was disabled. Even more so if your political opponent's disabled mum has been dead for 24 years. “All the media wanted to know was what Anthony Albanese thought about Hanson's comments regarding his dearly departed mum.”
