Guardian Essential Poll: Pauline Hanson's Support Plateaus After Controversial Speech
Hanson's Support Plateaus After Controversial Speech

The first Guardian Essential poll following Pauline Hanson's provocative speech at the National Press Club shows her support has plateaued. In the address, Hanson attacked multiculturalism, climate action, the United Nations, and the ABC and SBS.

Polling Results

According to the poll, One Nation's primary vote has stalled, and even supporters of the party are expressing concerns about Hanson's policy offerings. Guardian Australia political reporter Josh Butler and Essential Media executive director Peter Lewis discussed the results.

Voter Concerns

The poll indicates that voters reject key One Nation policies, and support for the party is slipping. Lewis noted, "We have spent 30 years meeting Pauline Hanson’s anger with our own. What if we tried this instead?"
