THREE ELECTIONS - THREE GREAT RESULTS: What One Nation’s ascent means for shooters

from Gun News Australia: the latest news for Aussie shooters · host Politics Reloaded - real news for Aussie shooters

WE LOOK AT what the seismic emergence of One Nation after recent elections means for firearm owners across the country. One Nation's stunning performance in the South Australian state election saw them capture 24.4% of the vote and four lower house seats, dramatically outpolling the Liberals.  They also captured three upper house seats. This momentum continued through the Nepean by-election, where they gained 24.5% of the vote, and their decisive victory in Farrer with 57.5% of the vote on a two-party-preferred basis. The trend is unmistakable.  These three results point to the collapse of the Liberal Party’s place as the alternative government, and the retreat of far-left parties like the Greens and Animal Justice Party. With Victoria's upcoming November state election, this trend looks set to continue, which can only be good for shooters. We also examine critical issues including political trust, preference deals, the detrimental impact that firearm policy uncertainty has for dealers and shooters, and why engagement with local MPs matters now more than ever.
