One Nation cartoon mocks Jacqui Lambie's prolapsed vagina while attacking Albanese's digital safety bill

One Nation released a new "Please Explain" cartoon in which Pauline Hanson ridicules Senator Jacqui Lambie's prolapsed vagina and lampoons the Albanese government's Digital Duty of Care legislation.

One Nation’s latest "Please Explain" animation features Pauline Hanson targeting Senator Jacqui Lambie’s medical condition, a prolapsed vagina, while satirising the Albanese government’s Digital Duty of Care bill aimed at online safety. In the clip, a caricature of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is shown trying to curb internet free speech, labeling dissent as hate speech, and Lambie’s avatar responds with a line about her condition.

The sketch also mocks veteran Andrew Hastie, who protests that his service should shield him from criticism, and Treasurer Jim Chalmers, portrayed playing with blocks to symbolize economic mismanagement. Lambie could not comment, being at a Hudson Institute event on reproductive health. The video has drawn mixed online feedback, with some praising its sharpness and others questioning the removal of negative comments. The cartoon underscores the contentious debate over digital regulation and the use of personal health issues in political satire.

Why it matters

The piece highlights how political satire is using personal health issues to critique free-speech legislation in Australia.
