One Nation leader Senator Pauline Hanson has launched a national consultation campaign inviting Australians to share their concerns and ideas to help shape the party’s policies ahead of the next federal election.
The campaign, titled ‘What’s Holding You Back?’, centres on a new website where Australians can describe the challenges facing them, their families and businesses, and suggest changes they want to see.
Hanson said the initiative aimed to give Australians a direct say in developing what she described as an ambitious plan for the country.
“Politicians have stopped listening. One Nation has not,” Hanson said.
“Too many politicians care more about keeping their jobs than doing their jobs. Governments only look to the next election and there’s no long-term vision for the country. Australians deserve better than this, and they deserve for their voices to be heard.”
The campaign asks Australians to identify issues affecting their lives, including rising living costs, business regulations, delays and other barriers to getting ahead.
“We’re asking a simple question. What’s holding you back? You. Your family. Your business. Our country,” Hanson said.
“Tell us what’s wrong and what needs to change. The costs you can’t keep up with. The rules that make no sense. The delays stopping you from getting ahead.
“And bring us your ideas. The people dealing with these problems every day deserve a say in how we fix them.”
Hanson said One Nation wanted Australia to be a country of ambition and opportunity, with greater support for businesses and people seeking to build their futures.
“This country isn’t broken. It’s being held back by an incompetent Labor government,” she said, criticising the government over taxation, red tape and rising prices.
She outlined the party’s vision of an Australia that manufactures more goods domestically, relies on its own capabilities and rewards people willing to take risks.
“We want an Australia that makes things again. That stands on its own two feet. That backs businesses and rewards people prepared to take a risk,” Hanson said.
“We have the resources, the skills and the people. We need affordable power, lower taxes and less red tape so Australians can get on with it.”
She also highlighted housing affordability and opportunities for younger Australians as priorities, saying the party wanted hard work to translate into better prospects for individuals and families.
“One Nation will take an ambitious plan to the next election,” Hanson said.
“This is your country, and we want to hear from you.”
