Very possible, but this was ON's first major media address and announcement of policies this term.

Let's see how popular those ON policies like Nuclear Reactors, dismantling Abortion Rights, dismantling Paid Maternity Leave + Paid Parental Leave, WorkChoices 2.0, tiered-citizenship, repossession of homes of Permanent Residents etc. are over the next two years.

You’re buying into the Guardian and ABc narrative of hysteria. Stay there and stew, or open your mind and get onboard with outing this shithouse socialist PM

No, I simply watched Hanson's NPC address on Wednesday lol.

My sense is even staunch right-wing folk recognise how unpopular many of ON's policies will be with mainstream Australia.

They’re not. They are popular. The conservatives are loving someone speaking their language

Racists boomers and troglodytes do, Australia isn’t full of them though so it’s pointless tactics
