Prime Minister Anthony Albanese criticized One Nation during an interview on Sky News's 'Sunday Agenda' program, following a speech by Senator Pauline Hanson at the National Press Club. Albanese stated that One Nation and other right-wing parties continue to oppose measures that have made a difference to people.
Albanese's comments come amid rising support for One Nation in recent polls. The Prime Minister did not specify which measures he was referring to, but his government has focused on cost-of-living relief and climate action.
Senator Hanson's National Press Club address on June 18, 2026, covered topics including immigration and economic policy. She criticized the government's approach to border control and spending.
Political analysts note that Albanese's remarks aim to differentiate his government from the growing right-wing movement ahead of the next federal election, due by 2027.
