Hanson and hypocrisy in politics

 Hypocrisy is bi-partisan and quite regular in politics anywhere.

For example in the USA you had veterans criticising Tim Waltz's record as a reservist blithely ignoring Trump made up excuses not to serve.

In Australia we had a flood of criticism about Julia Gillard. Her looks, her clothing , her intellect etc. how come there is little about Pauline Hanson.Let us be blunt. Hanson is not attractive ( euphemism), She is old and looks older. She is inarticulate and she is not very intelligent. Moreover she always has a svengali behind her.

Julie Bishop made on unfortunate slip as shadow treasurer and was dropped. Tim Wilson makes a larger error  about tax and petrol and no-one notices.

Sorry but I can't think of any ALP examples except John Kerin being unlucky as treasurer as well.
