‘In prison by Christmas’: One Nation attacks Andrews, Allan in campaign launch
Pauline Hanson’s party also unveiled its uncosted policy platform for November’s election at an event attended by about 750 people.
The One Nation party launched its campaign for the Victorian state election, vowing to prioritize law-and-order measures by scrapping the Suburban Rail Loop and Treaty, while increasing penalties for violent young offenders and bolstering the police force through the recruitment of Australian Defence Force veterans. Party leader Warren Pickering and the party's national leader, Pauline Hanson, attended the launch at Melbourne's Crown Casino, along with One Nation candidates.
Party spokespersons argued that the incumbent Labor government has mishandled crime and debt issues in Victoria, and that one Nation's policies would address these concerns. Polling data suggests that One Nation could significantly challenge both Labor and the Coalition in the upcoming election.
