Recently a chap with a Greek sounding name ran amok in his car killing several pedestrians and injuring many more in Melbourne. His action prompted Pauline Hanson (Australia's own right wing crazy politician) to announce to the news media accompanying her, as she wandered around the streets of some part of Australia, that there'd been a terrorist attack in Melbourne and as she was just about to speak a brief smirk of what looked like pleasure passed across her face (maybe pleasure at being able to say "I told you so" about Muslim refugees). So beware of right wing opportunist politicians in your nation's political life. They may appear to be a small minority that can be shrugged off but remember what happened last time the western world was in economic trouble and right wingers in politics came to power.
Pauline Hanson is part of a western-world-wide swing towards the right wing in politics but it is not a right wing led by rational and reasonable advocates of Capitalism (or some such thing) but rather a right wing led by inarticulate dishonest crazies Like Pauline Hanson, Donald Trump, and Marine Le Pen. After the Great Depression of the 1930s similar right wing crazies managed to precipitate world war II.
