One Nation watershed

About this episode

The episode discusses the potential for One Nation to expand beyond its traditional base and the implications for upcoming elections in Victoria and Farrer.

Will the Liberal and National parties do better in the Victorian election and the Farrer by-election? Can One Nation build itself into a national political force, beyond its Queensland heartland and newfound popularity in South Australia? Will poor leadership and discipline unravel One Nation success, or will it become the party of the right? South Australia political junkies, Josh Sunman and Dr Emily Foley join Democracy Sausage to discuss the South Australian election washup and the performance for One Nation.  Hosted on Acast.
