One Nation party leader Senator Pauline Hanson will submit a petition signed by more than 41,000 Australians to the Senate calling on the federal government to establish a Royal Commission, or major public hearing, into the country’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Today I will be submitting this petition, signed by 41,079 Aussies, calling on the federal government to establish a broad Royal Commission into the true facts and the management of the COVID-19 pandemic by Australia’s state and federal governments, to the Senate,” Hanson wrote on Facebook on March 29.
