James Ashby says One Nation will not remove satirical video
of Robert Irwin despite legal threat

Pauline Hanson is ignoring a legal threat to remove a One Nation cartoon featuring Robert Irwin which the celebrity figure claims is defamatory.

One Nation published a two-minute video on Friday called 'The State of Queensland' which used Robert Irwin and popular children's character Bluey to mock the state government over perceived failings ahead of the election in October.

Mr Irwin has threatened to sue for defamation over the clip, which One Nation described as "tongue-in-cheek" and features Irwin's misadventures with Bluey through Queensland.

In the video, their car is stolen by "juvenile delinquents" before Bluey falls into a giant pothole on the Bruce Highway.

"Oh no!" Mr Irwin's character exclaims.

"Lucky the state of Queensland's got a world-class medical system."

Another character then laments there's a six-month wait for treatment.
'Unauthorised and deceptive'

Mr Irwin and Bluey have featured prominently in a recent Queensland government tourism campaign to lure visitors to the state.

The legal letter from Sunshine Coast lawyer Zoe Naylor accused the video's producers of "unauthorised and deceptive use of our client's image".

"We demand that you remove this video," the letter states.

It appeals to stupid people, that's why you like it. Besides, it is irrelevant if it's true or not. She simply should not be using his name without his permission. How'd you like it if Dan the man used your name to push his agenda?

It's satire. Robert Irwin shouldn't take himself so seriously ... especially when Albo is the usual topic in those videos.

I wonder how he reacted to the scammed photo of him being "arrested" by police? Now that would have been a legitimate grievance.

Anyone and everyone in public life has to learn to deal with these things.

If it's based on the truth then you can't defame someone and it kind of rings a bell don't you think Cheesy

Comedians do it all of the time you dickhead espcecially being a cartoon.

The question that needs to be asked is how much tax payers dollars did this Irwin character get for his propaganda ??

Another video making a comment:

Robert Irwin threatens to sue One Nation leader Pauline Hanson for defamation.

The conservationist claims he was mocked in the latest episode of Hanson's 'Please Explain' cartoon series.

Mr Irwin's lawyers have demanded the animation studio remove the video immediately.

Irwin's Lawyer is wasting her dick head time (she is an immigration lawyer, and a Yank) with defamation. She'd do better if she did some research on passing off.
