Jane Lomax-Smith: Scientologists are 'bastards' who should be taxed by sweet east pearl

The Education Minister unknowingly appears in an internet video in which she brands members of Scientology as "bastards" while criticising the group's entitlement to tax exemptions for religious organisations.

Her comments were secretly filmed in May by the internet collective anonymous, which has been conducting protests against Scientology and posted on the online video site, YouTube.

EDUCATION Minister Jane Lomax-Smith has been caught on tape declaring Scientologists "should be taxed, the bastards".

Footage from a video recorded during a protest on May 10 by internet activist group Anonymous has emerged which shows Dr Lomax-Smith casually chatting to protesters in Adelaide.

Clearly not a fan of the controversial Church of Scientology, Dr Lomax-Smith asks protesters how frequently they gather and exclaims, "oh, it's great".

She then asks about the protest group, which is dedicated to "dismantling and destroying" the Church of Scientology.
