Barnaby Joyce says Pauline Hanson does not support the White Australia policy but he has backed her support for âmass deportationsâ of those overstaying their visas.
Hanson and her colleagues have spent days clarifying, explaining or walking back headline-grabbing parts of the One Nation leaderâs trip to Europe, including a podcast interview with the far-right convicted criminal Tommy Robinson, her attendance at a Dolce & Gabbana fashion show and downtime by a hotel pool in Italy with the mining billionaire Gina Rinehart.

SARAH FERGUSON, PRESENTER: Hanson has been in Europe for a few weeks. She gave a speech at a right-wing conference and lit up the internet with pictures of her poolside in Italy with Australian mining magnate Gina Reinhardt.
One Nation's Barnaby Joyce joins me now. Welcome to the program, Barnaby Joyce.
BARNABY JOYCE, ONE NATION MP: I don't know whether you do welcome me, but let's have a go.
SARAH FERGUSON: Well, do you endorse Pauline Hanson's enthusiastic pledge to bring far right extremist, Putin supporter, convicted criminal Tommy Robinson to Australia?
BARNABY JOYCE: Well, I think that the issue here is that first of all, the meeting with Tommy Robinson, I don't believe that it was a carte blanche case of that One Nation wanted that meeting. I think it was basically suggested by Spotlight, agreed to by One Nation. And of course, it made sensational viewing for those who wanted to basically get very upset.

Joyce backs Hanson on mass deportations, denies One Nation wants return of White Australia policy
Barnaby Joyce has denied One Nation supports the White Australia policy, while backing party leader Pauline Hanson’s call for mass deportations and suggesting illegal immigrants could be targeted when they seek medical treatment.
Hanson’s approval of a far-right UK party’s deportation plan was broadcast on Seven’s Spotlight on Sunday night, as Joyce joined the cleanup of Hanson’s earlier remarks in which she said Australia’s woes began after the end of the White Australia policy.
“We don’t support the White Australia policy. Let’s get that completely clear,” Joyce told Sunrise on Monday, after Lee Hanson blamed her mother’s lack of eloquence for her being “misunderstood”.
