Opposition Leader Sussan Ley expressed frustration as Pauline Hanson arrived in Parliament wearing a burqa with a Joy Division 'Unknown Pleasures' screen print. Ley remarked that this stunt exceeded acceptable Parliamentary standards.

"Pauline Hanson coming into Parliament with a Joy Division logo shows a massive misjudgement. It's totally out of touch with modern Australia," Ley commented. "I supported Pauline's previous antics, but this is cultural appropriation of the 1980s post-punk movement, and it's antisemitic," she added.

Hanson, who recently wore a plain burqa in Parliament, described her latest outfit as a "modern, edgy statement about national security and indie music." She humorously noted, "I found out this is what young people listen to when they’re not on TikTok or disrespecting the flag. It’s called Joy Division. Although I don’t know where the joy is. Sounds a bit depressing to me, but it matches the state of the country."
