Court upholds ruling against Pauline Hanson over racist tweet

An Australian federal court on Monday upheld a ruling that One Nation leader Pauline Hanson racially discriminated against Muslim Senator Mehreen Faruqi in a 2022 tweet telling her to return to Pakistan. The court dismissed Hanson's appeal, finding the tweet was an anti-Muslim attack. Faruqi welcomed the decision as a win against racism, while Hanson said she may appeal to the High Court.
