Update on our party member survey: the issues important for One Nation to raise in parliament. A few weeks ago we asked our members to tell us what they want raised in Parliament.
We’re proud to report that hundreds of you took the time to share your thoughts, concerns, and priorities. It’s clear that One Nation members are passionate, well-informed, and deeply invested in Australia’s future. Our four Senators are now working through each submission, and thanks to your input, we’re prioritising real issues that matter to everyday Australians.
Here are just a few of the strong voices we heard:
- Beatrice from Victoria wants Australia to abandon the ‘Net Zero’ agenda and restore energy independence. And so we will, it is a position that aligns directly with One Nation’s commitment to affordable, reliable Australian energy.
- Raymond from South Australia asked why multinational giants like Chevron receive our natural gas for free while Australians face soaring prices. This will be raised in parliament, because One Nation has long called for greater resource sovereignty and fairness in our domestic energy market.
- Firzana from Western Australia questioned the financial and social costs of mass immigration. That’s a conversation One Nation has never been afraid to have, we believe immigration must serve the national interest and preserve social cohesion.
- Bob from Queensland expressed support for a return to Australia’s traditional values and cultural identity, and these are themes central to our fight against politically correct overreach and revisionist history.
- Wendy from Queensland asked why original land title deeds are no longer issued, calling for transparency and reform in property law. This will be raised because One Nation supports the rights of Australians to own and defend their property free from bureaucratic interference.
- Keith from Queensland shared the challenges small business owners are facing due to rising taxes, red tape, and government waste. We’re pushing hard in Parliament for lower taxes and a fair go for small business, and these concerns will form the backbone of our parliamentary debates, questions and search for answers.
- Pauline from Victoria raised alarm about the growing mental health crisis and its link to family breakdowns and institutional failures. We agree, mental health needs more than lip service, and support needs to reach the people on the ground – especially in rural and regional areas.
- Adele from Victoria called for a forensic audit into government spending, questioning where taxpayer dollars are going. This lines up with One Nation’s demand for fiscal transparency and our opposition to wasteful bureaucracy. This term we will use this insight to turn a sharp focus on government spending and overreach.
- Russell from South Australia demanded tougher penalties for youth crime and stronger consequences for repeat offenders. This is so crucial to our members, and One Nation will continue to push for law and order reforms that protect innocent Australians and put victims first.
Each of these examples reflects the kind of practical, grassroots wisdom we’ve come to expect from our members. These are real concerns from real Australians.
Thanks to our Direct Democracy model, we’re not just listening, we’re acting. The feedback we receive through this survey is helping shape the motions we put forward, the speeches we deliver, and ultimately, the policies we push to enact. Once we’ve raised your issues in Parliament, we’ll send responses back to local branches so they can build informed policy from the ground up.
This is what democracy should look like, led by the people, shaped by their voice, and delivered by their representatives.
Thank you to everyone who submitted a response. We will have more surveys and ways to involve yourself in policy development over the coming term of parliament. Together, we’re giving Australia back to Australians.
