Greens promise to fight Hanson in the new Senate

The Greens say there is no place in modern Australia for the racist, bigoted views of Pauline Hanson.

Greens leader Richard Di Natale says the minor party will stand up to Ms Hanson, who looks set to return to federal parliament in a Queensland Senate seat.

"We will take it right up to her, to show that in a modern Australia there is no place for racism, there is no place for bigotry, for the sort of hatred that she is spreading through her views," he told reporters in Melbourne on Sunday.

Meanwhile Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has urged Hanson to act responsibly and not put the state at risk.

The One Nation leader has claimed one of Queensland's twelve senate seats and is likely to pick up a second depending on how preferences are distributed.

Ms Palaszczuk said Ms Hanson and other incoming senators should be responsible and not put important state issues like exports and tourism at risk.

"My message to all the senators is you must stand up for Queensland but you must act responsibly," she said.

Ms Palaszczuk said the election showed Queenslanders perceived Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull to be "out of touch".

"They don't want to be ignored, they want to be listened to," Ms Palaszczuk told reporters on Sunday.

"It's very easy to go down to Canberra to be in the bubble, but fundamentally if you want to be in touch with people's concerns you must be out in the community."
