## Resource

Recent opinion polls showing One Nation leading the primary vote have sparked debate about the future of Australian politics, but the bigger story may be the growing dissatisfaction with Labor, the Coalition and the political establishment itself. As voters grapple with cost-of-living pressures, housing affordability and declining trust in institutions, support for Pauline Hanson’s party appears increasingly driven by protest rather than ideology. In this episode, we examine whether One Nation’s surge represents a temporary backlash, a lasting political realignment, or a warning sign that Australia's traditional two-party system is facing its greatest challenge in decades. #AUSPOL Subscribe to New Politics for weekly briefings and full analysis: www.newpolitics.com.au Support New Politics: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/newpolitics Substack: https://newpolitics.substack.com Song listing: ‘La Femme d’Argent’, AIR.
