Bullshit. It's Her MONEY used to get the Laws SHE want's and she cares Nowt about anyone else or the climate. I don't want BILLIONAIRES running the show. Do You.?. That's real CRAP reply Siso. Nev

Billionaires shouldn't exist.

There's no reason for anyone to have more money than they could possibly spend in a lifetime.

Gina and her old man are/were just greed merchants of the highest order. Lang Hancock was a money-grubbing grub who used smart lawyer/accountants to initially write up an iron ore royalty agreement whereby he got 2.5% of all monies earned from a number of iron ore leases that he'd pegged - in perpetuity.

 

The second thing he did was set up a major trust to avoid paying any tax on that massive amount of money. So Rio Tinto pays this family multiple tens of millions each year for no effort whatsoever on their part, and they pay zero tax on it - until the Hancock Trust is dismantled. 

 

That's why Gina spent hundreds of millions on lawyers and court cases to stop her children from dismantling the Handcock Trust. She succeeded. She paid her children a few tens of millions to keep them from grabbing more of the billions in the Trust.

 

Gina married an American tax evasion expert, one Frank Rinehart, who narrowly avoided going to jail for tax fraud.

He wound up with a suspended jail sentence. He was a crook who taught Gina all about tax evasion and how to manipulate laws to keep winning unfair gains.

Frank Rinehart was a total fraud, he lived a double life with another woman while he was married to Gina. 

 

Gina believes she's the only one entitled to W.A.'s iron ore wealth, as her family pegged the first iron ore leases - and that everyone in Australia should genuflect to the Hancock dynasty and thank them eternally for the huge efforts the Hancocks have made to build up Australia. The truth is, they're nothing more than 20th and 21st century robber barons.

And who lets her do that. If it upsets you, talk to your government representatives. Sound like a lot have people think the current government is good, partition them for change. A lot of people talk about people they don't like how sky news talk about people they don't like. She is not in jail or been arrested so she has done nothing wrong. Some of her stuff may not be real ethical but you could say that about 1000s of business people. I don't think the current and past goverments (both sides) will do anything wrong because they want to t future prospects.

Do You want her running the show using her Outrageous wealth to bend the Country to Her Wishes. so she can become  EVEN More Wealthy? She's promoting Hanson and has Power over her and got her to Mar a Lago to meet Trump.  If Trump Goes, How does Hanson look because she seeks to be Like him.  and the Way He does things. THAT should make a lot of people anxious. (if they thought about  it). How come Murdoch is so  FOR her?  It's  almost as if he was being Paid to do it.. Is HE looking for FAVOURS ALSO?  I'd put money on it and I don't bet. Nev
