Could Pauline Hanson actually become Prime Minister?

For decades Pauline Hanson has been on the fringe of politics. Sometimes mocked, often ignored, occasionally courted. Even from that position she’s been influential: her presence can be felt in our immigration policies, dating back to Howard.  But her power and her popularity have never been greater than they are today. A recent poll has one Nation as the most popular party in the country, surpassing Labor in primary support.  So just how possible is an Australia governed by One Nation?  Today, host of The Conversation’s The Making of One Nation podcast, Ashlynne McGhee, on the party’s popularity and what it will try to do with it.    If you enjoy 7am, the best way you can support us is by making a contribution at 7ampodcast.com.au/support.   And you can check out The Making of One Nation podcast here    Socials: Stay in touch with us on Instagram Guest: Making One Nation podcast host, Ashlynne McGhee Photo: AAP Image/Lukas CochSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
