## What else on that page is checkable (the good stuff)

- Organised by the National Union of Students. Not a solo wag.
- Scale in the ABC copy: “hundreds” in Melbourne; “about 200” in Brisbane; SA parliament “hundreds”; Perth “hundreds”; Bendigo “about 150.” SA Police (InDaily, same day) estimated 2,000 in South Australia.
- Jason Clare and Ben Carroll told students to stay in school; Clare: protest on the weekend.
- Hamish Knight, 17, Bendigo, separate claim: Hanson has “one of the lowest turnout attendance rate in the Senate. She fights for the billionaires and for herself, and that’s it.” Attendance is checkable; he did not cite a figure. Not the claim this card files.
