Call for Parliamentary Enquiry

The Eros Association today released photos of a Pauline Hanson doppelganger that was possibly the model that the Sunday Telegraph fraudulently claimed to be Ms Hanson. The unknown model starred alongside the world famous black adult actor known as Long Dong Silver* in a Danish adult magazine in 1982.

Eros CEO, Fiona Patten, said that the admission by the Sunday Telegraph of its monumental identity mistake should be the subject of a Queensland Parliamentary Privileges Committee enquiry and that if the Committees jurisdiction did not cover threats or obstruction to a political candidate as well as elected MPs, then State and Federal parliaments needed to adopt such a policy.

Ms Patten said that Ms Hanson clearly had her rights at law to deal with the issue but the Sunday Telegraph could also have been said to have been trying to influence the outcome of the seat of Beaudesert in the Queensland election by publishing the photos. There was no public interest whatsoever in publishing nude photos of a candidate during an election campaign just for the shock value of it, she said. If this had happened to a sitting member, it would have been viewed as a Contempt of Parliament and dealt with accordingly. Ms Hanson should have been protected by the Parliament that she was trying to gain election to.

Ms Patten said there was only one situation where the publishing of private sexual images or information could possibly be justified and that was where a sitting member or candidate was espousing policies that ran contrary to the behaviour exhibited in the photos or information. Public interest can only be established and then be said to legitimise the publishing of private sexual information or photos, in cases where monumental hypocrisy or illegal behaviour such as exhibited by the Rev Jimmy Swaggert in the US or in the case of the former member for Capricornia, Keith Wright, she said. Ms Hanson has never espoused policies or agendas related to sexual behaviour which would have made the publishing of those photos in the public interest.

She said that the Australian Sex Party would push for reform of the laws around Contempt of Parliament to ensure that people like Ms Hanson were protected but also that whistle-blowers in this area were also protected and not subject to charges.

* Long Dong Silver is the stage name of Barbados born adult star, Johnny Cook. He has an 18-inch long penis. The photos are from Colour Climax magazine edition number 120. The photos referred to in this media release are available for viewing on the Australian Sex Party website, www.sexparty.org.au
