One Nation calls out all forms of extremism.
One Nation rejects all radicals who seek to divide Australians, whether they come from the Left or the Right.
Let me be clear – we do not reject Australians who proudly identify with their nation and want to preserve our sovereignty, freedoms and culture. That’s patriotism, not extremism.
Australia belongs to ordinary Australians, not ideological activists.
Young Australians deserve better than to be exploited and radicalised by political movements. They deserve leaders willing to confront extremism wherever it appears, not politicians who turn a blind eye when it suits them.
One Nation won’t look away.
We will call out extremism in all its forms. Even when it’s not politically convenient.

Immigration is the question of our generation. How we answer it will determine what sort of Australia moves into the next era. The majority of Australians believe we’re headed for disaster—at least half want immigration paused entirely. Will we continue to be a Western democracy with European roots, with Western Anglo-Celtic heritage and Aboriginal cultures, and a robust dedication to principles of freedom, faith, enterprise, democracy, fairness and equality? Are we to retain the echo of Christian values in our laws and culture? Young people are the ones preparing to live in the Australia that we leave behind. Many fear the character of Australian is being lost under the dual forces of mass immigration and multiculturalism, creating resentment and anger. To be put last in your own country is a crime.
The government’s digital duty of care is an assault on democracy, attempting to brand One Nation as radical, fringe or even dangerous would bring us under the pending social media duty of care bill. It’s Orwellian. It’s a self-defence reflex from parties with no idea of how to fix their plummeting polls. Why else have those opposite branded us populists if it weren’t for the unpopularity of their party? A populist, simply described, is a politician who accepts our role to serve the people. The Left spit the word ‘populist’ out of their mouths like poison; I quite like the taste.
When was the last time Anthony Albanese and Angus Taylor spent the week on public transport? Have they ever feared for their safety, coming home at night or sitting on a packed bus without a single word of English? Anthony Albanese purchased a cliff-top mansion. Does he know what it’s like to stand in line behind 50 people for a rental, knowing the process is hopeless?
Young people’s lives are getting smaller, poorer, lonelier and more foreign. This is not integration; it’s abandonment. The emergence of lost, angry and disillusioned young people is not a surprise; it’s inevitable. Many have been swooped up and radicalised into communist, socialist and Islamist aligned movements. From cradle to degree, they fed a lie that protesting is the same as productivity. No-one is coming to rescue them because their outrage is useful for government policy.
Existential terror about the planet helps keep Canberra able to give green grants to big business and foreigners and creates thankyou jobs for politicians who wrote their Green election slogans with the tears of children. Many young people have achieved spiritual purpose from being part of something grand—a literal fight against supposed evil, without understanding the historical horrors of the movements they’ve joined. Activist ringleaders exploit the emotional vulnerability of futureless young people to manipulate them into being ideological soldiers. And they’re not the only extremists employing this abuse. The Neo-Nazis do it too.
One Nation disavows all radicalism. We oppose it even at the cost of votes. These groups are not welcome. When it comes to handling extremism, plenty of ministers in Canberra have turned a blind eye to children calling for the murder of Pauline Hanson, violence against One Nation supporters and for conservatives to be imprisoned. This is radicalisation. Why have senior Labor ministers wrongly tried to imply this radicalisation is justified instead of showing moral leadership? Tell the young that these violent and fascist slogans shouted at their rallies are wrong. Left-wing activism is not harmless. Soon these children will hold a majority vote. How will Labor address the rising violence on the Left when you refuse to stand up against it now? Are you afraid you’ll lose an election? Is that how cheaply your conscience is bought?
One Nation has no such cowardice. Neo-Nazis, white supremacists, nationalists and ethno-nationalist exist in this country. We disavow them completely. They stand in opposition to everything One Nation believes. These groups are a gut punch to the story of Australia, as is the growth in numbers of communists, socialists, Marxists, decolonisers and Islamists. We have racial land, racial taxes, racial privilege and racial parliaments all in violation of our founding principles. That’s extremism.
There’s a growing sea of angry, radicalised young people in this country who know nothing of where their own rhetoric leads. Instead of helping them, Labor and the Greens are preying on them. Last week, I rang the alarm in a Spectator article against those conservatives who are in danger of manipulation and violence from extremists. Since then, I’ve been threatened repeatedly. That’s why I’m now doubling down. My challenge to all sides of politics is to stand up against extremism in all its forms. If you won’t, you have no moral justification for attacking One Nation, who are calling out extremism in all its ugly forms.
